One ot the principal objections which
have been urged against the re-ehartering
the United States Rank, has been found
ed on the presumption that a large por
tion of t!i« stock is In-id by foreigners.
Now were this really the fact to the full
extent urged, we cannot conceive how it
could really afford an argument against
the institution. !t only shows that the
bank has gained confidence abroad as
we!! u:> at home, which confidence'has
invited the attention of foreign capitalists.
And should our government abolish this
institution and create another upon equal
ly safe principles, and should the stock
become saleable it will find a market in
Europe. And where is the harm? The
operations of the Rank can never be con
trolled by foreigners, lieeause no foreign
stockholder is allowed a vote in the choice
of Directors. In fact every dollar which
the foreigners invest in our fluids, is so
Much capital introduced into ourcountry,
and therefore a gain, l’ut it is allowed
on all hands, tlrg the finance department
of the government cannot be success"»ll v
managed without the assistance of a hank
ofsonie kind. And let government or
ganise an institution upon whatsoever
plan they will,, if it succeed, if it win the
confidence of the public,—-why there are
Americans who w ill sell, and foreigners
who will buy, and on this head what shall
we gain by the exchange?
But there is a very great error in setting
down the eight millions of stock said to
be held in Europe as in fact the property
of foreigners. Because a great portion
of this, it may fairly he presumed, is own
ed by American merchants, though de
posited with foreign capitalists, as collate
ral security for heavy purchases of for
eign Goods. For instance, a mercantile
house of Savannah wishes to purchase
goods at London; they deposit with a
Loudon broker American Rank stevk as
security; and though this stock continues
to be held in the name of the London j
broket, until the final close of the Mer
cantile transaction, —yet it is in fact the
property of the American merchant, lie is
credited with the dividends, derives all
the advantage from the rise of stock, and
must suffer the loss, if any, in a decline.
This we know to be thc<situation of stock
in some cases, and we have reason to be- i
lieve it to be in many more. And it is
this facility which it gives to mercantile
transactions, which forms one of its liigh
<-st recommendations.
The first Annual Meeting of the Uo
tumbus Temperance Society was held on
the 3d inst, and the following report was
presented by the Executive Committee.
TUB ANNUAL REPORT
Os the Executive c ovnniltte of the Columbus
'J'i hi pc ranee Society.
Your committee arc fully aware, that a
detailed account of ail the proceedings of
the society for the past year would not
be interesting to any but the curious and
inquisitive- Such particularity is not ex
pected. We therefore hasten on to give
n general outline. We have abundant
reason to rejoice that a few names asso
ciated themselves together in this Town,
for the purpose of forming a Temperance
Society No sooner si as the dour opeu
<-d, than numbers were seen rallying Jo its
support; some of whom were already far
gone iri habits of enehriatiori, when this
society found them and took them up and
placed their feet on linn ground. Al
though we have to regret that some few
have gong hack like the evvjnc to their
wallowing in the mire, yet others ot them
have persevered mid are now sinning
monuments of the rfdiluting virtue of
our society. The greater portion ol oiir
members are of that class in the com
luuuity, whose link's wire good in 1< is
Wspect, and wtm seldom t(ii.o*:** • tied

oajfh cnnuelioi, that llu* turn- rupmii!
4Srery mint u|»o loved his cooMrjr nnd llw
1 virtues of private life, to step forward in
this came-, us affording the only safe
ground in the surest preventive to the
u uipt i otf iiian against iiis ever failing m
tothciic* ; and the best retreat to the
intinipt rule from that vortex which would
| certainly ire long swallow inm up, if he
continued to inutile with his cups. That
| this little society lias done much in this
place towards elevating public sentiment
and public example in fat or of sobriety.
| and fixing that mark of disgrace upon
th s vice v. Inch it so justly des< rves to re
ci ive m every well regulated community,
; none will doubt who have noticed the
i signs qf the tutus.
The occasional addresses delivered
from time to time before the society, have
had a happy effect in awaking up the
; moral force of the place and enlisting tal
j euts m behalf of this glorious cause.
Moreover the and interesting tracts
which have been circulated through the
instrumentality of the members of the so
ciety, have been the means of dissemina
ting much valuable information on the
.subject. Every member of the society
should feel himself bound to encourage
j the circulation of those valuable tracts
; which have effected so much in this cause
< of humanity.
\\ hy not every man stand forth the
j champion of temperance virtue? Why
; not join in with us in arresting this indi
• vidual curse—this national scourge ? Do
] you lovi- yourselves] then unite w:;b us—
for tliis vice has destroyed thousands and
may it not destroy you? Do you love
your children? then join the society—for
more youths fall a prey to tills vice than
Jto any other. Do you hate cheating, lying
and stealing ? then do not hesitate to join,
for drunkenness leads, in the end, to
these and all other vices.

INDIAN MANNERS CUSTOMS.
[Continued from our last ]
The Miculgcc (or Kings) and the hte
chaitguculgee (or beloved met) then go
four times round the fire, and at every
time they face the east they throw so. we
of these flowers among the f!t»’ans
They then go and stand to the west, the
warriors succeed, repeating the same
ceremony. Then a cade is stuck up,at
the cabin of the Mjco, with two white I
feathers at the end of it. One of the i
Thlautimilgee (or fish tribe) takes up |
tfie cane just as Ihe sun goes down, and
inarches towards the river, all follow
ing him: when h<> gets halfway lie gives
the death whoop, tiiis he repeals foul*
! times and comes to the water’s edge,
I They then all arrange themselves as
j close as they can at the margin of the
I stream. He strikes the cone at the
margin, they then put a fragment of the
flowers of the tobacco on their heads fsi
in each ear, and at a signal given, four
different times throw some into the wil
ier: then at a given sign all plunge into
the river and gather four stones from
] Ihe bottom. With these they cross
their breasts four times, each time
throwing a stone into the water Ik, utter
| ing the death whoop, they then wash
i themselves, take up the cane and feath-
I ere and erect them in the square. Al
ter which they visit through the town,,
i dance tiie Obungau huujo (or mad.
dunce) in the evening, and which close
ihe ceremonies of tiie Bqtkehih or of
amnesty and pardon in tiie creek na
tion.
There is another practice called the
HmthlvkiUisowau (or war physic,) which
is thus described; when young men are
going to war, they go into the hot house
of the town. This is called Thlucco or j
the rotunda, not quite as magnificent as j
oars at the Capitol. It is near the great
square, is of nil octagonal shape, CO feet
i\ ide, 40 feet high & 180 feet in circuin
feranee and has but me entrance; it is
clayed up to the first plates and then
covered with pine bark to the top. The
wood and materials were all prepared
. at n distance, nnd it was erected with
I out the sound of hammer, axe, or any
other nietalic sill-stance, like the builci
itig of Solomon’s Temple. In the mid
dle on a small elevation fire is kindled,
it is the grand assembly.room where the
men women and children gather to
gether every evening to recreate them
selves w ith singing. dancing and coc
; versa lion: and in it sometimes in very
: cold weather, the old mid naked sleep.
It is walled and clayed lip on the out
side, and the entrance through u smail
door, fit the hot house the warriors
remain four days, they drink tin* Alico
ho-ynnjou, and the possau, and they eat
j tin* Suvtvatrhicti, a very bitter root, which
line the power of intoxicating, or mad
. dening. On the fourth day they come
out, have their knapsacks ready, nnd
march. This knapsack is a hlunkei,
. containing some pinched corn-flour or
; cofci men I and leather to patch their
moccasins. By the by a friend inform
-1 cii mi* that daring his four rn Floyd s
1 army, he subsisted four days on not
r.iori* than h pint of this «old me .!,
which In* mid posscsst il the property ot
! jin itching thirst uml nffayUig hung>T.

i like Dbf, u protection ail ill*.
{colied the 'unr pbytdek/ composed of
‘ Unity t'tiU;, »»t.U L* pncju.i or the bones
of the snake »u.l oftke lion. The fra
: ilitiun ot tins physic is, that in old
tiiins Ihe iion (lsieptuipau) devoured
I their people, they dug a pit and caught
1 him iu it, just after he Imrt killed one ot
1 tin in, they covered him with Itghtuood
| knots and burned him hut preserved his
Iroues. The snake mbs in Use water,
the old people sung nmi he snowed him
self, they sang again an.l he showed
himself a little out of the » .iter, the third
lime he showed Ids hoi .. k, iln-y cut oil
one: ugain he showed himself a tniirth
time and they cut off the other horh. A
piece of these horns & of the bones of
the lion is the great war physic of the
Greeks.
'I hey have n solemnity of initiating
youth into ni mhood, which was descri
bed to me thus. Tills is annually done
to the boys of from to to 17 years old.
I,ike the other ytaiiy ■ceremony, it is
culled Rosketuh. The lads take two
handfuls of the bitter tSouwati hico . ml
i ontmue enting it a whole day. They
also steep the leaves and drink the wa
ter. Iu the dusk of the evening they cut
two or three spoonfuls of boiled grits,
or sofka, prepared by boil.ng with the
addition of a little lye. This is repeat
ed lor lour days, and during the w hole
lime they remain in a house. After this
they go out. hut must put on a pair of
new moccasins. l’or twelve moons
tl.ey abstain Trout eating truck venison.
except that of the old ones, and from
Turkey cocks, fowls and salt. During
this period, they must not pick their
cars uoi; scratch their bends with thoir
fingers, but use a stmiii Stic k. For four
mo jus they must have a tire to tliem
seives to cook their food, and a little
gin, -being- a virgin, may cook for them
i,at taeir food is boded soflut. The fifth
moon tiny person may cook hut they
must serve themselves first, and use one
; spoon and pan. Every new moon,
j they drink for 4 days a decoction of the
pnssuu, which possesses nauseating &
j emetic properties, and abstain for three
j days from all food, except a little boil
ed sofka in the evening. The l»!h moon
thej perform, they repent the course n
dopted on the origin:.! lour days, the
sth they come out of their house, gath
er corn cobs, but it them to rshes, und
with these rub their bodies nil over. At
the end of the lunar period they sweat
under blankets and go into the water,
and thus ends the ceremony. This, site
is some 1 inic-s shortened to 4,0, or
moons, occasionally nto l‘J days,
hut the cout #e is the satne, und it is al
ways under the direction of the great
leader, w ho teaches him all that is prop
er for him to know. During this pre
paration they do not touch any one ex
cept young persons who are under u
coarse of physic w ith them, and if ihey
dream they drink the possau.
No doubt they are content with nil
their native attachments for their nn
c.ieat rust mi, im»ig)i:«ry comforts and
droll fin ins, but afici mature delibera
tion, I have come to the sugc conclusion
that Mr. Herryhiif s bunk raid my bones
have no afliiiiiy for each other, judging
from t.b, ir soreness, nor lias Ins sofka
any linger attract.on* f,r my sto.iiinch;
{ t am satisfied with Indian habits nnd

ty .and uu income of an hundred thou
