,i «e perceived the pros, at Queen's moilier ana the 1
>2neen, charged with a leaning towards the Whig
• Ministers and their policy. A few days since hoxv
rvrr. we received an account of a debate in the
JiiMise of ominous, in which a circumstance was
flawed, w hich goes far to show the cause from which
lis unusual partiality arose. In a debate, in which
< ie foreign po.icy of the present administration, was
under discussion. Lord John Russell took credit for
having preserved the peace of Europe, adding, that
u.ien the AA ollmgton and Peel administration went
out ot office, they were on the point of makimr com
mon cause with Holland against Belgium, and that
, :,i * 1 , incipient measures for entering on a conti
nental war were then taken. This assertion was
i ii unconiradicted, and may therefore be assumed
to be strictly true. Now, when it is considered
.i that Leopold, the King oflielgium, is the brother of
tae Duchess of Kent, the Queen's mother, it is not
' 1° be wondered at that slie snould have shown a
disinclination towards those who would have dc
liri\ed him of his newly acquired throne, and the
reverse to those who allowed him to retain it, par
ticularly when the ambitious views of her bouse,
and the strong a tachment existing between her
and her brother are considered. These ambitious
views are perceptible in the marriage of Leopold to
the Princess Charlotte. in bis second marriage to
the daughter of Louis Philippe and his acquisition
of the crown of Belgium, and in the marriage of Ins
nephew to Donna .Maria of Portugal, indeed, the
success is astonishing, with which tlie house of
Saxe Coburg, though possessing but a small prin
cipality in Germany of no consideration in the po
litical world, has succeeded in aggrandizing itself
by matrimonial alliances, —and now we see one of
the Princesses of that bouse, mother of the Queen
of England, with all the influence her relationship
to the crown gives her. This success is probably
in part owing to a concert of option, between all the
different branches produced by the lie ofstrongaf
fection which exists between them. When some
•enquiries were made in England as to the expendi
ture of the large pension granted by Parliament to
Prince Leopold, it appeared that a great part of it
had been devoted to the support of his sister, the
Dutchess of Kent, and her daughter, the present
Queen, and after his second marriage, he passed
over to England with his consort for die sole pur
pose of visiting his sister and niece.
The present ministry will, therefore, probably
have, in the coming election, all the support which
the < town can give them, besides that which the
k possession of office bestows. The Conservative
A party have latterly, we think, been gaining siren tth,
W and consisting as it does of the grew cr part of the
I wealth and aristocracy of England, w ill make, no
doubt, a fierce fiatlle, for should they be worsted,
and the Queen select a husband inimical to their
principles, in which they arc no doubt sincere, the
preservation of those principles would be in danger,
as heretofore it lias been generally admitted that
the throne, though compelled to chose its advisers
from their opponents, w as silently with them.
It would be folly in England even to venture an
opinion as to the result, and a still greater one to
attempt it lie re.
Wo copy from a slip of the New Yorh Times of
the 27th, the following judicial case :
Specie Payments. —Yesterday, the case of John
AA hull vs. the Commercial Rank, was tried before
Judge Irving, in the Common i’leas. The plaintiff
sought to recover from said Rank the sum of $54 in
specie, being the amount of hills bebi by him. Air.
Soul conducted the case. It appeared that on the
Hill of June last, the plaintiff became possess, d of
four bills issued bv the above institution, of the de
nomination ofesl3 and sll. lie sent a young man
w ith them to the Rank, with instructions to demand
specie. The paying teller said that specie was no
longer paid, but offered t • exchange them for cur
rent small notes. This was refused, and the pre
sent proceedings commenced. On the back of each
bill was printed a denurfcjiurion of the “Kagt'ur
, rcncy.” .Mr. J). E. Tylee and Alderman Brady,
were called to testify to the signatures of the Pres
ident and Cashier of the Bank. They expressed
1 their belief that the signatures were gen line, al
though lac similes had been seen on counterfeit
notes.
Air. Livingston, for the defence, contended that
the genuine signatures to the notes had not been
1 clearly proved; and that their identity had not been
established. The Bank in refusing to pay specie,
had done so in compliance with an act of the Logis
-1 iture They had offered to pay the plaintiff current
bills, which would have answered his purpose as
well as specie ; but the latter had set himself up as
the avenger of the people, and their champion
against the bank. It was evidently a vindictive
suit, and under such circumstances, ho thought the
Jury should render a verdict for the defendants.
After a repl y from the plaintiff’s counsel, his hon
or. Judge Irving, charged the Jury, lie observed
that previous to the Suspension Act, the hanks
were compelled to pay their bills in specie on de
mand, under the penally of forfeiting their charters.
And so summary was the process authorized by the
statute against these Institutions, that all suits of that
nature w ere entitled to precedence on the calender:
Rut on the 16th of May, 1837, it pleased the Legis
lature of this State to pass an act providing that all
suits against bunks with a view to the forfeiture of
their charters, Ate., should be suspended (or one
year In the present case two questions presented
themselves, viz. a question ot'lavv and a question of
fact. As regarded the question of law, as to whe
ther the Suspension Art was constitutional or not,
that would be reserved for argument before the
court; 'but the jury had to decide on the following
facts :
First—Whether the hills in question were signed
My the officers of the bank ?
Second—Were they the property of the plaintiff?
Third —Were they presented for payment ? and.
Fourth—Did teller of the bank offer to pay
the notes in other hank bills, and refuse to redeem
them in specie ?
If they were satisfied on those points, it was their
duty to return a verdict for the plaintiff, but if oth
erwise, for the defendant.
The jury retired, and after a short absence re
turned a verdict for the plaintiff for $54 and interest
thereon. The legality of the Suspension Act will
probably be argued during next term.

Below will be found a letter from Air. King,
giving bis views on the contemplated rail road to
the Gulf of Mexico, This work originated with
him and will be carried through by his energy and
perseverance. I lis opinions therefore, are entitled
to much respect and we doubt not will command
the attention of all who feel interested in the pros
perity of this section ot Georgia.
(COPY.)
MONTICELLO, May, 1837.
Aly Dear Sir,—
By this day’s mail I have received your letter
of 3d inst.. and although much pressed w ith busi
ness, I will give you a sketch of my views on the
subject to w hich you call my attention.
Georgia unquestionably posssesses a more com
manding position than any .Southern State, and it
may be found, than any other State in the Union.
Her territory borders tour States and Florida—iier
navigable rivers 1 believe are more extensive than
can be found in any territory of the same dimen
sions on the Globe ! Her sea coast is free from
capos, shoals, rocks, ice and snow ' —she com
mands a communication with the Gulf of Mexico
through the Appalachicola river—she possesses the
most practicable and desirable routes for rails roads
leading to the great Valley of the Mississippi, di
verging from the sea coast and extending through
the centre of the State to her North-western boun
dary, and along her Southern border to the Appa
lachicola, giving her command of tlie trade and
jravel to the grain and hemp growing regions of the
Northwest, and the rich Cotton districts bordering
the Gulf of Mexico. It has been ascertained be
yond ail question that cotton and all other articles
of produce can be brought from ports on the Guff
to her coast and shipped to their place of destination
when the Brunswick and Florida rail road shall be
completed, vastly cheaper and quicker than they
can be carried round Cape Florida. This rail road
will also prevent the productions of many of the
richest Counties ofthe State from being compelled
to seek a market at the ports on the Gulf, and sub
ject to the expense, dangers and delays of the navi
gation round Cape Florida, and will render the
ports on the Gulf tributary to Georgia, instead of
Georgia being tributary to them !
A ship can come from any port in Europe to her
coast on an average ten days quicker than to New
York, or the ports of the North, in consequence of
being able to make what is called the Southern pas
sage? and to take advantage of the trade winds. If
therefore, we Had regular lines of packets to Liver
pool, New York would be indebted to us for Euro
pean intelligence which would give us a vast ad
vantage in commercial and financial transactions.
Georgia has the only sea port south of the Che
sapeake Bay suited to naval purposes, and safe for
seamen at all seasons of the year. —These advan
! tages will enable our merchants to continue their
commercial transactions throughout the year with
ail parts of the world. At present we are Tributary
to the Northern potts, —our men of business emi.
grate, and business ceases the beginning of Summer.
The great Western rail road will bring to our
coast the vast productions of the Western States
which South Carolina hopes to receive by the Cin
cinnati and Charleston rail road. The steamboats
on the Western rivers can come at all seasons of
the year to the terminus of the road on the Tennes
see river, and the merchants and farmers of the
West can come to our coast in Winter with their
produce when the Northern rail roads and canals
are obstructed by snow and ice, and be enabled to
return w ith their supplies in time to meet the wants
of the Spring market at the very season that they
are now compelled to encounter all the difficulties
incident to a Northern w inter.
Twelve months ago South Carolina, Florida and
Alabama, were looking to receive, each their share
ofthe trade of Georgia. The contemplated rail
roads from Charleston through a portion of her ter
ritory to Cincinnati—from AA est Point to Montgom
erv_lfrbm Pensacola to Columbus—from St. Marks
to Jacksonville, on the St. Johns river, together with
1:10 Funt ana C hattalxoochie rivers, were supposed
to be sufficient to drain Georgia of her wealth and
i.oprive her citizens ofthe profits on her commercial
exchanges.
, How, entirely has the state of things been
caanged. Fbe Great Western rail road will super
sede that contemplated from Charleston to Cincin
nati in ail its consequences and results, and besides
give a ready outlet to the va-t mineral wealth of the
Cherokee country, and supply all tlie central and
Eastern portions ofthe State with the bread stuffs
and other marketable products of the West, and
leave an immense surplus to be shipped from our
own ports. The Brunswick and Florida rail road
must necessarily receive all the freight and passen
gers to aiid from the Southwest. The contempla
ted rail road acres.' East Florida front St. Marks to
the St. Johns, has been superseded by the Bruns- i
wick and Florida rail road. The West Point and !
Montgomery road will now in all probability come 1
to Columbus, and whether it does or not it must bring j
the produce from Alabama instead of taking ours to |
Mobile. The route of the Pensac <la and Columbus |
road has been changed, and it is now in progress |
from Pensacola to Montgomery, and will in fact bo I
a continuation of the Brunswick and Florida rail :
road into the centre of Alabama", and bring the pro- |
dime of the country through winch it will pass to ;
our coast, instead of carrying the produce of West
ern Georgia to Florida. ( ,
'4 lie surveys of a route for the Brunswick and
Honda rail-road arc now completed. Tlie distance
from Brunswick to the junction of the Flint and
(’hattalioochic is about two hundred and ten miles,
and the country over which it will pass, unques
tionably affords greater facilities for the construc
tion of a rail road than any other route of the same
extent in the I inited State's.
i will only observe further on this matter, that re- i
cent experiments prove beyond doubt that we can
bring cotton from Pensacola to Brunswick for two
dollars a hale, and consequently notonly save from
thirty to forty days in every voyage to Europe or
the Northern States, from ports on the Gulf, hut also
from five to six dollars in freight and insurance on
every bale of cotton.
I am dear Sir,
AVi h much respect and esteem,
Vo nr friend.

I.TVERPODL, June 24.—Since our circular of
16r.1i inst. we have had a good demand for Cotton,
both from the trade and speculators, and prices
have advanced 4a 4 per lb. In the early partof the
week the quantity offering was moderate, but a
good portion of the recent arrivals having since
been placed on the market, there has been more
choice, and holders appear disposed to meet the de
mand at the above improvement. The sales for ihe
week ended last evening amount to 36,410 bales, of
which 7750 were Uplands, at 4i a 8; 11,680 Or
leans at 41 a 74, with 20 at 84; HiGO Mobile jam!
Alabama at 4» a 74, and 70 Sea Islands at 15 a 28
per lb. Os the week’s business 9300 hales were
taken by speculators and 3100 for export. The im
port of the week has been heavy, viz : 48,725 bales,
•and our stock is now estimated at 393,900 bales of
which 262,500 is American, against24s,9oolast year
at same lime, of \vh eh 167,300 were American.
LONDON, JUNE 22.— Coilon —The inferior
kinds are now as low as they have been at any pe
nod since .832, while fine descriptions, from their
scarcity, command relatively rather higher rates.—
This has led to a more regular demand latterly, and
the sales of 16,113 bags East India held last week
went off with briskness, and allfound buyers, either
for export, or on speculation. At Liverpool also a
steady business has been doing, and speculators
have bought pretty freely; and though the heavy
stocks every where preclude the hope of any mate
rial advance, the opinion appears to be gaining
ground that prices are not likely to be much lower.
The imports from all places to the leading markets
to 31st ult. have been 927,417 hales, against 810,191
hales last year; and the stocks on the Ist inst. were
712,895 bales against 336,7530 n the Ist June, 1536.
Into Great Britain alone there have been imported
of lite above 631,060 bales against 485 bales, and
the stocks were on the Ist inst. 473,890 bales against
217,190 bales last year.
SAA ANNA I f, July 39 — Cotton. —Arrived since
the 22d inst. 3878 hales Upland and 00 bales Sea

on shipboard not cleared on the 29th inst. of 5918
bales 1 pi, uid. and 1003 b iles Sea Island. In Cot
ton we have had a very limited business this week
hardly sufficient to stamp a change in prices if any
have taken place. The sales amount only to 337
I hales as follows : 66 at S?, 124 at 9, 14 at 94, 31 nr
9L 102 at 10?. In Sea Islands we hear of no sales.

CHARLESTON, .11 LY 29.—The market since
our last has exhibited a quiet aspect for produce
generally; but previous rates have been maintain
ed in such operations as have conic to our notice.
I Cotton.- —The transactions at the close of last
week, and the commencement of the present, have
been very fair as will be seen by the result of our
sales. Several purchasers who were then in the
J market, having completed their orders, and withe
I drawn ; transactions became languid but without
i any reduction in our rates. On the contrary, as the
stock is considerably reduced holders are in some
instances holding on, particularly for the middling
to good qualities, believing that as prime Uplands
is now nearly exhausted, these desciiptions must
further advance. The sales of the week comprise
3800 hales at the following prices: 12 at 64; 95 at 8:
132 at 84; 40 atbT; 282 at 9; 131 at 9i; 80 at 9f; 790

Our Sea I land dealers are out of the market en
tirely, as we have heard of no transactions for
some time past.
Gram. —We had three arrivals of Corn during
the week, which brought from $1,13 up. AYe quote
$1,20 a $1,25, which we believe to be the market
rates. Hay continues dull at present quotations.

as has already been announced, that this Institu
tion will commence its exercises on the first
.Monday of January, 1838. The Board of Trustees,
while again calling public attention to this fact, of
i a some remarks in explanation of a now feature
which they have given toils character.
J he I diversity will consist of three departments,
Collegiate, Academic, and Primary.
Any person desirous of seeing the laws which
govern ihe Collegiate department, can obtain a
copy of the pamphlet containing them, by apnlica
tion to U. P. Stubbs, of tins place, Secretary and
Treasurer of the Board.
(landidatesfor admission into the Freshman Class,

tions, 3lair’s Introduction to Latin Syntax, the Gos
pels in the Greek Testament, Dalzel’s Collectanea
Grtcca Minora, together with Latin and Greek
Grammar, Arithmetic and Geography, ancient and
modern.
The course of instruction in the several classes,
will ho as follows, to v. it:

[Provision will also be made for instruction in
Modern Languages.]
The Academic Department will consist of those
. "'bo are preparing for admission into this or any
j other College.
The Primary Department will be composed of
r those pursuing the ordinary branches of an English
education.
The students in these two departments, ns well
ns the Collegiate, will be instructed by the Faculty
of the College.
In consequence of this arrangement, boys, in the
early stage of their literary course, will enjoy ad
vantages perhaps unsurpassed in this country, os
they will be taught by a regular Faculty, while tlio
. students of the College will receive the full amount
of instruction ordinarily given them, as will he seen
, by a reference to their course of study. This sys
> tom will vastly increase the labor of'the Faculty;
t 'bis labor they have however consented to un
dergo.
The adoption of this new plan has been caused
by the peculiar suite of the times. Though the
amount on ottr subscription list is sufficient to war
rant the commencement of the work in its original
form, yet from the present state of affairs, it would
have hern more than indelicate to call upon many
! individuals for their subscriptions. On the other
hand, many parents have been making their ar
’ rangements to send their sons to Midway dnrin<’
the next year. Such persons it would be painful
to disappoint, yet it would he impossible to pro
ceed for want of funds in hand. The course now'
announced as being adopted, was then proposed
' —that is, to bring the Academy and College under
‘ the government and instruction of the same Pre
sident and Professors. By this arrangement the
expenses of the Institution will be sustained and all
difficulties in its way removed.
The Board of Trustees take this occasion to sav
; that after this year the Steward’s Hall will be dis
continued. This is done, that there may be
hindrance in the way of such persons as may wish
to move to -Midway for the purpose of ta kin c board
crs.
i The Trustees close litis communication bv stm
, gesting to parents, (who desire their children to be
educated, amt who cannot afford to send them
abroad for this purpose I the propriety of settling
themselves at Midway By taking boarders, the
expenses of their family could he more than sus
tained, and their children, of all afrPR r „„ •
thorough and finished education. To othera'dis*
posed to turn their attention to keeping boarders as
a business, we would suggest that Yfidway offers
ir rri ncT d ,nfc r i few P Lu<>n*
at the South—a healthy and delightful location,
and as many boarders as they may he able to ac
commodate.
