£5- We call attention to an article from the New
Era.
J/3“on the first page of this morning's paper will
be found a communication copied from the Natchez
Daily Courier, which, although not intended for
this section of country, is very applicable, and our
friends will find it to their interest infol
lowing the advice given by the writer.
SCT The directors of the Savannah Insurance :
and Trust Company, declared on the 7th inst., a di
vidend at the rate of 10 per cent, on the capital
stock, for the last six months.
&5“We saw yesterday a letter containing a fur
ther contribution, (private) to the sufferers by the
late Charleston conflagration. It is from a few |
fronds in this city and its neighborhood ; it amoun- j
led.to the liberal and generous sum of twelve him- j
dred and seventy five dollars.
$7/” The prospect of the passing in the House ;
of Representatives, ofihc bill for the separation of
Rank and State, is every day becoming more flat
tering. A month or two ago, it was generally be
lieved, that the snh-treasury bill would not pass
the House. Now, the friends of the connexion be
tween the banks and the government have become
alarmed, and dread the adoption of a measure,
which must necessarily deprive the moneyed cor
porations of the country, from that influence in the
government, which they should never have pos
sessed. We are not surprised at this change in
the public mind. Ever since the extra session of
congress, the policy of separating the government
from the banks, has been gaining ground ; and
should the bill he rejected at the present session of
congress, by a very small majority, we have no
doubt in our minds, that public opinion will require
the measure to be carried into effect at the next
session. In the north, the policy of an indepen
dent treasury is acquiring popularity ; and in the
south, a very large majority of the people are in
favor of that policy. The members of congress,
representing this section of the union, should, there
fore, take into consideration the wish of this over
* whelming majority of their constituents, and vote
accordingly. By voting according to the wish of
this majority, they will draw upon themselves, the
thanks and respect of their constituents. Some of
those members of congress may believe, that the
sub treasury system is of doubtful policy. We will
grant this. In this case, why should not the sys
tem be tried, especially when a large majority of
the people are anxious for a fair trial? We hope,
such of our members of congress who are opposed
to the system in question, will weigh the few brief
remarks we have made upon the subject, and de
termine to comply with the wishes of a majority
of their constituents.
Sir - We publish in another column, a letter from
Mr. Barney, addressed to the editors of the Na
tional Intelligencer. The following are the re
marks of those editors on publishing a letter, in
■which principles are expressed, diametrically op
posite to those entertained by them. It was due
to the editors to show how such a letter found its
way into the columns of their paper.
“ We insert, in the preceding page, another letter
from Sir. Barney, on the subject of the currency,
and the disposition of the Executive anent thereto.
The name of the writer olthat letter will he a sure
passport to the reader’s attention, having procured
its insertion in our columns at a time when there
are so many demands upon them that all cannot
be met, and when we must have declined publish
ing such a communication without the sanction of
a responsible name.
“ It can hardly be expected that the views and
purposes of the Administration should appear to us
in all the roseate hues in which the glowing fancy
of our respected correspondent has arrayed them.
That professions are made hy the Administration,
such as he represents, we cannot doubt, since it is
he who says so. For ourselves, we would not
give an ounce of practice for a pound of its profes
sions. If our confidence, or that of the people, is
over to be regained, in whole or in part, hy the
Administration, it must begin with practical de
monstration of its having forsaken the error of its
ways, and returned to the paths of wisdom, which
so far’as concerns the currency and the finances,
it has so widely strayed from. We cannot give
faith to the Administration, in advance, for what it
has not done. .
“ We know what the suffering of the country has
been, and who and what caused it. We know
what its condition is now, and who is responsible
for it. We can neither hold guiltless the authors
of the suffering which is past, nor release from
their proper responsibility those who have placed
the country in its present condition.
VN ith t hese remarks byway of caveat, we sub
mit Mr. Barney's letter to the judgment of our
readers.”
$y- We are glad that the following resolution
.was agreed to by the House of Representatives :
On motion of Mr. Grantiand,
Resolved, That the President of tuc U. states be
requested to lav before this House, any communi
cations which may have been received by him, or ,
hv the Secretary of War, from the Governors of
Georgia. North-Carolina, Tennessee, or Alabama,
■on the proposition of John Ross and his associates,
for extending the time of removing the Cherokee .
Indians from those States.
OUR CHEROKEE AFFAIRS.
We publish in other columns of this day s
some Important papers relating to the removal ot
the Cherokee Indians, and the circumstances
which led to the recent measures proposed to con.
cress by the War Department. It will be seen, on
reading the documents now published, saat the ad
ministration will be able to vindicate the course it
has thought proper to recommend, and that the
blame, for presenting to Ross and the Indians delu
sive hopes, will have to be borne by others than
the President and the Secretary of W ar. Mr.
Lumpkin has on this occasion done his duty; am
should other developements, w hich must necessa
rily follow those already made clear up to the sad
isfaction of the people of Georgia, the share he may
have had in the conferences and negotiations with
• Ross,it will give us much pleasure to use towards
him a different language,than the one it was our du
ty to employ xv h en we had to condemn the message
of the President, and the letter of ihe .ecre arj
War to John Ross, and other chiefs of the C hero
kee delegation. We shall wait for other rex ela
tions before we comment on those now presented
to oor readers, who, from the extraordinary facts
disclosed, will no doubt arrive at the conclusion,
that the administration will he able to vindicate it
self before the people of Georgia, of any design to
act unjustly towards them.
Commodore David Porter, our Charge at Con
stantinople, is daily expected in this country on a
visit. We are happy to say his health is good.

FROM JAMAICA?
The Jamaica Journal of the 27th April, received
at the office of the New York Express, states that
there was a heavy gale at Annato Cay, on the 20th

Very respectfully,
Your most obedient servant,

Speaker ofthe House of Representatives.
The following information was contained in a
communication accompanying the above,
j 1. That the improvements valued under the Che
rokee treaty of 1835, amount to about one million
j of dollars.
2. The amount of money paid for such improve

i with other allowances for spoliations, ferries, etc.
1 constituted the credits to individual Indians; debts
and other claims allowed hy the hoard, are charged
against them, and the balance only is paid, if any ]
remains. It is estimated that the payments equal
eight hundred thousand dollars.

Dear Sir, —To-day a despatch reached me, from
the upper part of our county, requiring aid against, _
as near as can be judged. 300 Indian warriors, xvho
have thought proper to whip on our soil txvo com

sixes alarm to our population. On Wednesday
next, I take the field against them, xvith as many
1 volunteers as I can obtain, and Capt. Tracy’s com
pany of Riflemen ; to give security to oor citizens
is afl I expect to accomplish, until our Governor
puts me in sufficient force, to drive the scamps out
ofthe swamp, which I hope xvill be done with all
expedition. In the different engagements many
men have been xvounded, and one mortally. If
the enemy chose, or had an idea of offensive Wa
rfare they could lay xvaste the entire county; nor
could 20 men be found prepared to meet them—
fortunately, ignorance predominates—and instead

It is highly satisfactory to be enabled at length to
state, which xve do with some degree of confidence,
that an improvement has taken place,not only in

MARKETS.
Correspondence of the Journal of Commerce.
Liverpool, (Monday) 7ih May, 1838.
Our last circular. Ist inst., would acquaint you
; that our cotton market h id advanced 4 a I per lb.
from the lowest point of depression, 'i he demand I
cotiiinued active for a day'or txvo subsequently, j
bin lias since been much less spirited, and though a
protlx r fair extent of business has been done, the
buyers have had the advantage, amounting to a de
cline of fully I per Ih. in the loxver and middle
qualities from the highest sales made on the Ist and
j 2d inst, with a comparatively languid market, —
more decidedly so to-day than before.
Tim sales for the xveek ended ith inst., amounted
(o 39,710 hales, of xvhich 9270 were Upland,at 54
a 71, with 20 at 84; 17,050 Orleans at 54 a 84, with
j IB at 9d; 4900 Alabama and Mohi e at 54 a 7a, and
| 260 Sea Island at 17§a28d. per ih. About 7500
j were taken on speculation and 1200 for export.
On Saturday, the sth inst., the business was about
j 4000 bales, and to-day about 3000 hax e been sold.
At Manchester market, Ist inst., a large business
xx-as done in goods and yarns, but without any ad
vance in the latter, and since then there has not
been so much doing The probability of some of
the f pinners shortening the time ot work is still
j spoken of, and it is said that some mills at Bolton
j are now working hut fonrdaysa week. The winds
; shiee onr last have for the most part been unfavor
| able for arrivals, but ahou 40,000 hales have got in.
The supply into Liverpool since Ist January, has
been 572,000 bales against 475,000 to same period
last year: the import from the United States is 493,-
000 bales, being an increase of 115,000. The stock
in this port is estimated at 331,000 bales against 342,-
1 000 at same period last year; the stock of American
j is about 242,000, or 22,000 more than it then was.
HAVRE, May B.—Our Cotton market has been
very active since our last respects of the 2d instant.
Sales amounting from 1590 to 2000 hales per day.
Prices are rather firmer, but the tendency to any
rise has been checked by the accounts from the
interior, xvhich continue to he of the same gloomy
import, and xve are afraid will not alloxv of any
durable improvement for a long time to come.
At the same time, prices have come to a point, at
which a much greater depreciation is not to be
feared.
Liverpool advices upfn the 4th, are of a satisfac
tory nature, but there does not appear to he much 1
confidence manifested in iheir duration.^
Arrivals having been confined to 1335 hales, our
stock is now reduced to 48,000 bales
HAVRE, May B.—Cotton. —The position of our
Colton market has become more favorable since
our last report «f the Ist instant, the ordinary to
fair description of United States short staple having
recovered the ground which they had lost during
the preceding fortnight. On the other hand, the
transactions in these Cottons have been extensive,
particularly within the txvo last days : they amount
to 7925 hales, viz:—l9B6 Nexx r Orleans, of which
1438 at 80fa 87f; 453 at 89f 60 a 95f; 80at Jo2f 50 a
I06f; 30 at 112 f 50, 1515 Mobile, of xvhich 330 at
75f a 8If: 568 at 84f a 88f; 617 at 92f a 100 f; 3.536
Upland, of which 8, extremely low, at 72f; 540 at7Sf
50 a 82f; 1477 at 8 Ifso a 90f: 1379 at, 91fa 86f; 210
at 103 a 105 f; 22 fine at 108 f; 50 Pernambuco at
] 10f; 838 Cumana at 103 f— the whole duty paid.
Owing to the easterly wind which has retained at
scathe vessels expected from the various ports of
the United States, the arrivals have been confined
to 3160 hales of this kind of Cottons.
HAVRE, May 9.— Colton. —Sales 2800 bales at
stiffer prices: holders, however,come forward more
freely since yesterday evening. The Liverpool ac
counts of the sth having announced a dull market.
No arrivals.
SAVANNAH, JUNE 9— Colton. —Arrix-ed since
the Ist inst. 3595 hales Upland and 9 bales Sea-ls

hand inclusive of all on shipboard, not cleared on
I the Bth inst. of 37433 bales Upland and 1073 bales
| Sea Island. Favorable intelligence regarding the
j Liverpool and Manchester market to the 2d ult.,
has enabled holders to obtain their previous asking
prices, but xve cannot, note any positive advance
in Upland, and therefore continue the quotations of
last week—the sales consist of 2414 bales, viz: 28

and full prices have been paid—the sales are 183
bales, viz; 8 at 25: 2 at 254 ; 2 at 26; 3 at 27; 6 at 28;

CHARLESTON, June 9.— Colton. —A good bu
siness has been done throughout the xveek just j
closed, in Upland Cotton : and the sales have ex
ceeded those ofthe previous week fully 900 bales.
The firm stale of the market noticed in our last re
vievv, has been followed bx an advance on the
finer qualities of this article, caused solely by the
light stock of tiiese particular descriptions on sale.
Owing to the favorable accounts received in the
early part of the xveek from Liverpool, holders
generady xxere very stiff and xvere asking an ad
vance on the lower sorts, but as buyers would not
uphold their preten>ions. operations xvere finally
entered into at former rales. The sales comprise
about 4182 bales at the following prices ; —3O bales
