COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 30, 1810.
From the Southern Banner.
Washington, May 94b, 1840.
Ai.bon Ciiase, E^q.
Dear Sir : To relieve myself from the daily
labor ofanswering letters addressed tome from
my friends and fellow citizens, on subjects
connected with the Presidential canvass now
going on, I submit to you for publication, a
few brief remarks.
I confess it has been with regret and sur
prise, that I have discovered that any portion
of any political party in Georgia, should be
found co-operating with the Federalist and
Abolitionist, to promote the election of Gene
ral Harrison to the Presidency. Ail parties
in Georgia, as late as December last, stood
pledged against the promotion of General
Ilarrison to the Chief Magistracy. And all
the events which have since transpired, it
would seem to any rational mind, must have
tended greatly to increase the opposition of
the South, to the elevation of that individual.
His being forced upon the IVbig combination,
by the federalists and abolitionists of the north
as the candidate of the party, in preference to
Mr. Clay and all others, is no valid reason,
to raise him in the estimation of the South.
To see political men who have long been
the leaders of a powerful and talented, politi
cal party in Georgia, rise up at this late day,
and promulgate to the world as an apology
for their sudden change in favor oi General
Harrison—that they had heretofore been ig
norant of his public character and distin
guished merits, which now in their estimation
entitle him to the Presidency ; or admit that
their opposition heretofore had been unjustly
based on mere prejudice; must be considered
a humiliating apology, to ail such as aspire
to the leadership of a great political party.
And, if reasons more valid exist, for this sud
den change of position, I have not seen them
presented. I have neither time or disposition,
to become the biographer of General Har
rison or Mr. Van Buren. I am, however,
familiar with the mo>t prominent public acts,
of the lives of both these gentlemen ; and my
personal acquaintance with both, afford me
some additional aid, in forming my opinions
in regard to their respective claims, to this
high official distinction. Upwards of twenty
years ago, I served in Congress with General
Harrison, and being a boarder tinder the same
roof, had the usual opportunity afforded un
der such circumstance”, of knowing General
Harrison, as he was, when in the prime of his
intellectual manhood. My personal acquain
ts! ce with Mr. Van Buren is more limited—
being chiefly confined to the last three years’
intercourse, which has grown out of mv pre
sent position. I consider the difference in the
general character and qualifications of these
two individuals for the station under conside
ration, immeasurable. Mr. Van Buren’s tal
ents, character, deportment and qualifies
tiotis, will secure to him the highest respect
and consideration, in any official station. Mr.
Van Buren has throughout his political life,
been attached to the well known, well defined,
Republican party of the country. General
Ha prison's political associations have been
chiefly with the Federal party, and judging
from his public life, I entertain no doubt of
his strong attachment to that parly and its
principles. As far as I have been able to
examine the subject, I consider the General
wholly destitute of fixed, political opinions.
I consider him a politician of the expediency,
or general welfare school, ready to do any
thing which he inav consider absolutely neces
sary, tothe general welfai e of the country
Hence it is, that he is the favorite candidate
(or the Presidency, of such a variety of con
flicting elements. He is clay in the hands of
the potter, or ra titer in the hands of the Whig
combination. He suits the views of the Abo
litionists, the high tariffites, the bank govern
ment party, &c. &c.
Should be succeed to the Presidency, I can
form no reasonable conjecture, what he would
or would not do, except from a survey and
consideration of the material upon which his
administration must necessarily be based.
And none, I conclude, will deny that an over
whelming - portion of that material, are dia
metrically opposed to the principles and policy
of the great body of the Republicans of the
South. On the other hand, the recorded
acts, the principles and policy of Mr. Van
Buten’s whole political life, justifies the asser
tion, that the Jeffersonian Republicans of the
South may safely confide in Martin Van Bu
ren. Every consideration of patr'otism, con
sistency and self-respect, secures the fidelity
of Mr. Van Buren to the great and leading
principles of the republicans of the South.
How then, I would respectfully ask, can any
Southern man, under existing circumstances,
desire to change Mr. Van Buren for General
Harrison ? The most violent opposition to
the present administration, is based on the
charge of its coincidence of views, with the
Southern democrats and State Rights Re
publicans. In other words, that the President
is 1 a Northern man, with Southern principles.’
Shall we of the South, under these circum
stances, prefer the candidate of the Federal
ists and abolitionists to our own Republican
President ? I trust not. I think not.
As regards the claims of the rival candi
dates for the responsible and elevated office
under consideration —I refer to claims found
ed on public service—l have no hesitancy in
saying, that a fair and just comparison, would
oreatlv preponderate in favor of Mr. Van
Bureti. But I shall not enter upon that in
vestigation of comparison; because I disavow
the doctrine or principle, that the offices of
our Republic are to be bestowed on any man,
as a reward of gratitude for pas! services,
irrespective of the public interest. Such doc -
trine would tend to jeopardize the best inter
ests of the country, and create demands in
favor of individuals, incompatible with my
views of the principles of our institutions.—
The only legitimate object in creating or fil
ling office, is that of promoting the public
interest. There should he no superfluous
office under our Government; and all offices
ought to be filled bv those who will best dis
charge the duties which devolve on the office.
Our elective system of government wisely af-
fords the opportunity to the people, for a
present and salutary exercise of the valuable
principle of rotation in office- No occupant
of office has any just claims to re-election or
continuance in office, merely to promote his
individual interest or wishes. The incumbent
has no just claims to re-election, which are
not based upon the public interest. Office
always affords a fair opportunity to the in
cumbent to develope his ability and fidelity to
the public interest, and by that test, the decis
ion should invariably be made. It is right
and laudable in a public man to desire public
favor and approbation, and he should seek it
by faithful and honest service.
But the people should scrutinize and distin
guish between actual service, and mere pre
tence and deception. Tr:te as it may be to
express it, vet ‘actions speak louder than
words.’ And the quality of the tree, is best
known by its fruit. And by the test thus laid
down, I have exercised my best judgment in
making up my opinions in regard to the Pres
idential candidates. The result is, I ardently
desire the re-election of Mr. \ an Buren, be
cause I believe the interests of out country,
and the perpetuation of our good institutions
demand it.
The election of General Harrison to the
Presidency at this time, would in my opinion
be the greatest calamity which has yet befall
en our country in the way of a selection of a
chief magistrate. Admitting the patriotism
and good intentions of General Harrison, yet i
consider hint wholly def'ientpolitical prin
ciples and qualifications, to administer this
great government to the interest of the people.
My only hope for ihe prosperity and perpetna
tion of our Republican system, is in a strict
and rigid adherence to the letter and spirit of
our written constitution.
However patriotic and pure may be the mo
tive to promote the ‘general welfare,’ by an
infringement upon the constitution, every
such breech jeopardizes the liberty c f the peo
ple, and weakens the bonds of the Federal
Union. If General Harrison had the admit
ted ability of a Webster or Clay (and was so
disposed,) how could he, under the existing
circumstances, administer the Government
upon the principles of the Republican creed, as
did Jefferson? His administration must ne-
cessarily be based upon all the odds and ends
of a combination, principally opposed to the
Repupblican faith.
Therefore, my friends and fellow-citizens,
allow me, as one, who is greatly indebted to
your long kindness and confidence, to ask, for
your own interest, more than mine—that you
lay aside the besetting sin of party strife, and
look into this subject. Before you contribute
to the elevation of General Harrison to the
Presidency, make up your grinds to submit to
the consequences.
In the day of calamity and trial, when
brought under a Bank government; oppressed
by a partial and b irthensome system of taxa
tion; or under the control ing influence of wild
and revengeful fanaticism; in such a day as
the one described, my endurance may be
equal to yours. Some of you may then take
the lead of me in what you may consider the
rightful remedy of nullification. If yon do
not intend to be submission men, now is the
time to resist, If you suffer yourselves to be
shorn of your strength, the Philistines will be
upon you. The constitutional, the best, the
most peaceable remedy, for a wise and virtu
ous people, is the ballot box. As to the elec
tiornering, revellings, banquets, and party
slang of the day, * stand aloof Horn all these
things. If you could witness the humiliating
scenes which are going on in this part of the
country at present, l kn tw that both your good
sense and moral feelings would revolt at pass
ing events. You will no doubt see published
in the newspapers, an account of a recent great
Whig meeting in Baltimore. Let me warn
you—reflect and consider on these things.
Upon the subject of this letter, there should
be but one party in Georgia. If we indeed are
opposed to Federalism and Abolitionism, we
ought not to abandon our brethren of the
North and West, who have hazarded every
thing in the support of our principles and our
rights. Your friend and fellow-citizen,
WILSON LUMPKIN.
THE GOLD SPOON STORY.
The New York Evening Star has the fol
lowing beautiful specimen of electioneering
against Mr. Van Buren:
“Mr. Andrews, a good Whig member
from Kentucky, who possesses all the blunt
honesty wh ch characterizes the people of
that State, whilst dining with the President,
observed a splendid service of gold plate up
on the table, and taking one of the golden
spoons in his hand, said to Ihe Preident, ‘Mr.
Van Buren, if you will let me take this spoon
to Kentucky, and show it to my constituents,
I will promise not to.make use of any other
argument against you—lbis will be enough.”
Now it so happens that this nice little spoon
story strengthened with a circumstance, is
sheer invention, as appears by tho following
from the Globe:
“When articles like this are circulated
through the Federal press, and regarded as
second only to log cabins and hard cider, it
may be deemed excusable to say that the
gold plates, spoons, knives and forks, which
have figured so lage of late is the same
which the Presieent found in the White
House when he took pose^sion; that the
plates, instead of gold are simple china, pur
chased in Mr. Monroe’s time—the spoons,
knives and forks, (neither of which arc gold,)
procured it is believed, during each of the ad
ministrations ofMonri e, Adams, and Jgr.kson
having received no additions, or improve
ments from Mr. Van Buren.”
In the debate last Tuesday, on the app o
priation bill, Mr. Ogle, a whig representative
from Pennsylvania, was understood to deny
the truth of the Globe’s comments, when Mr.
Andrews made the following statement:
Mr. A. stated that some weeks since he
had heared that such a publication as the
one just read from the Globe was going the
rounds, of many of the Fasten papers.
That it had not been his practice heretofore—
nor did he intend, lor the future, to deviate
from that practice—to notice the manner in
which his name might be used in connexion
with newspaper publications or gossip of the
day ; but as the gentleman from Pennsyl
vania had referred to that publication, it was
due to himself, as a gentleman, to say that no
such conversation had taken place between
him and the President. It was true, that,
with other gentlemen of the House, he had
the honor to dine during the winter witli the
Presiaeut, and it was due to truth and his
own sense of propriety and justice to say, that
the Preident treated him as a gentleman,
and he trusted that it had been his fortune
to treat the President in like manner.
Gov. Lincoln, a whig member from Mas
sachusetts, and one of the committee on Pub
lic Buildings, and Grounds, has put a.clincher
upon the lederal stories about the extrava
gance at the White House, in his answer to
Mr. Ogle, of Pennsylvania.
He, Mr. L. was no friend of Mr. Van Bar-
ren, but he would do him the justice to sav
that, if there was any tiling wrong in relation
to the furniture of the White House, the Pre
sident was not to blame for it. On the con
trary, he, Mr. L. knew his great delicacy on
the subject, and would assure gentlemen that,
whenever the committee had consulted the
President in relation to any additional fur
niture, he had invariably expressed the great
est reluctance to have any thing expended
for that object. He Mr. L. would state, from
his own knowledge, that not a single article
of furniture supplied during the last 3 years,
had been supplied at the request of the Pres
ident himself. The committee alone were
answerable, and they would assume the re
sponsibility. But so far was the President
from desiring any additions made to the fur
niture, that,~ab tut two years ago it actually
became necessary for himself and the other
members of the committee to do what he had
never done before, nor would he evr do it
again. Did gentlemen wish to know what
that was? He would tell them. It was to
go through ever/ room in another man’s
house, to see how much furniture he wanted,
and what conveniences were required. He
hoped that gentlemen would take notice of this
fact, and remember it whenever they attempt
to cast censure on the President in relation
to his furniture.

CENTRAL HAIL ROAD AND BANKING COMPANY OT GEORGIA.
PRINCIPAL BANK, )
Savannah, April 21, 1-840. j
His Excellency, Charles J. McDonald.
Sir:— l present you herewith a statement of the condition of this institution at this place. You will
receive a return from the Branch at Macon, as the rtvent act of the Legislature requucs. I take the liberty,
however, to send a consolidated return in addition, for otherwise it appears to me, ti e public, would h” misled
as to the actual condition of the Company. The Branch Notes on hand at the Principal Bank, and the
Principal Bank Notes on hand at the Branch, would doubt.ess be overlooked ia estimating the circulation, by
persons unaccustomed to such returns. The consolidated return I respectfully submit, fs better and give-,
.more clear it.famation than the returns as called for by the act, and 1 ask tho favor that it he published also.
The return shows the aggregate indebtedness of the Stockholders. When it is remembered that almost
every citizen of this community, and a great many at Macon, arc Stockholders, it must be manifest that the
debtors to the Bank must necessarily be composed in a great measure, of Stockholders.
Ihe discount line of this institution, at tins place, is almost wholly of a business character ; the loans on
accommodation not exceeding $50,000. There is but one Stockholder whose indebtedness exceeds SIO,OOO.
and the amount due by him is considered as t afe as any debt due to the Bank. The members of the Board
of Directors decline to make a return on oath of their indebtedness, but are w illing to nu ke a return of the
liability of all persons, by name, indebted to the Bank. This determination does not arise front any fear of
exposure, for the fact is, that the whole amount due.by the nine directors of this board, is but sls 645 CS,
which would bs considered but an inconsiderable sum for either one of them to owe. The law requiring a
return on oath by the individual directors will not be complied with by them, because they give their services
without compensation, and ate not unfrequently subjected to much inconvenience bv the time lost to them in
performing those services. There has always been some difficulty in getting the services of proper individuals,
ami those willing to serve arc not disposed to assume mere duties’ than art absolutely neccs.-arv to ifleet the
object of their services.
This Bank, since the first day of March last, strictly’ conformed to the law which proscribes the sa’e of
Exchange at a higher rate than two per cent.; but the consequc nee of the law has been that the Banks have
been precluded from dealing at ail in Exchange. Brokers and Trust Companies, having no competition in
the nia v kei, are able to control Exchanges to suit their own interests ; and instead of having Exchange on
the North now, at or near par, as it ought to be, with the large amount of produce going to ii.aiket, ana as it ’
in all probability would have been, but for this proscription ot the Banks, it is now selling readily at six per
cent, premium.
We are making good progress with our Road; wo hope to have it complete to the Sandersville summit, in
time for the Fall business; and iron has been purchased and is now daily arriving sufficient to complete tli.
road to within seven miles of the Oconee river.
I am, Sir very respectfully, vour obedient servant,
W. \V. GORDON, President.
