Resumption of Specie Payments.
Wi! learn from good authority, ihat (he Rank
of Augusta intend* to resume specie payment* on
(Ini tat of September, the day fixed upon by the (
IJhurlcalon Rank*.
'J’lie Hail Rond Rank, wc are authorized to stale,
will uliiO ni.uini! the payment ol their note ; in
specie on the IMI ol Sep’cmher, or as soon us the
in ijoiity of the Hanks of Augusta do so.
W'l are also authorized to stiile that the Au
gusta In unmet! and Ranking Company, will re
Miime die payment ol it* notes in Specie on the
Ist of September.
W’e learn that on the !)th inst. Iti ol the Che- !
rokee cotiviel* in the Penitentiary, wore puidoned
hy the Governor, and hud left Milledgeville, under
Ihe cure of an agent, to join the remainder of ,
that trihe on their way to the West. On the 1
night previous, an iiirll'ectn al attempt was made
j to lire the I’enitenliary, hy one of the convicts
! from Thomas county. The plot was distovered
in time to prevent any damage.
Wo perceive hy the report of the markets in
the Baltimore papers, that Corn ha* advanced
fully Iwrn/y cents a bushel within the week cn- ‘
ding on Saturday last.
Thu veteran and gallant Hull, tired of being
on shore, seeks again the clement of his ghiry j
and will shortly hoist his broad pennant on hoard
the (Ihi'i 74—destination unknown.
The Crops.
The Savannah Georgian of the 14th in it. says,
The Hice crops.o our vicinity promise fairly, anil
although a little rain would boos service to them
we cannot complain. We sincerely wish as much
could he said in favor of the Provision and Got
lon crops—the former has fullered severely and we
dear has sustained serious and lasting injury from
the dry weather. As to the Colton crop the line I
prospects presented to the Plant era fortnight since j
ate over clouded, and unless die weather relents i
r.iiui. ....v .. ..., ... -- '
rains, and that at an eady period, there is no tell,
ing the extent of the injury which will ho received
from the drought.
'Die Macon Tolegragh of the Kith speaking of
the crops, says ;
A month ago the corn crop was unusually
promising. Now it is less Haltering. The
droughts have been destructive in many places
and storms of tain and hail in others. Though
a huge corn crop was planted, it is not expected
the harvest will ho over an ave rape one.
Hess cotton was planted this year than usual,
and the appearance of the crop now is far from
flattering.
The report that Mr. Strange of North Carolina,
intended to resign his seal in the Senate, is con-
Iradii led hy the North Carolina Journal, of widen
Mr. 8. is one of the proprietors. A private cause
—not yet made public—which rendered bis resi
deuce in Washington very unpleasant, is stud to
have given rise to the report.
Mr. Urowu'a (ihe other Senator) term does not
expire until ItH 1. So the liPgisluturo will not
he of as much importance as at first supposed.
I he following proceedings ol a meeting of the
Ranks of Charleston, held on the Ist and 3d in
fant, we copy Irout the Mercury of the Mth.
Chaiilkston, 8. ('.Aug, 2. 1838.
Siu : Although at ihe lime when the late
I Convention of the Ranks of Georgia and South
• Carolina was held in this city, the Ranks of Now
■ : V ink had resumed specie payments, there was no
• satisfactory indication that the resumption would
j soon extend to other Stales. The resolution adopt
ed hy the Convention ol Racks tecenlly held in
| Philadelphia to resume on the I3lh inst. has there
i fore produced a very important change in the cir
j ‘•uinaiancßs which governed the deliberations and
. decisions ol the Convention held in this city.
i | Under the belief that tins change of circumstan
: cos would render a corresponding change of noli,
| ey an important duly on our part, a conference
j was had on the Ist and 2d inst., hy committees
j from the following Ranks of this City, viz. The
1 Rank of the State of South Carolina', the Rank of
j s '>nih Carolina, the Union Rank, the Planters &
Mechanics Rank ol South tlamlina, and the Rank
| of Charleston ; at which the Preatm lo and Koso- |
j Intionssubjoined were unanimously adopted, and ;
I have received Ihe sanction of the said Ranks.
The Ist of September ensuing, you will see, j
lias been fixed on as the day lor the resumption |
of specie payment*. An earlier day was propos- j
ed, and would have been preferred, but for coin-id- i
• rations ol courtesy to the other Institutions rep- I
resented in our late Convention, it was deemed I
proper that they should have nut > to consider the 1
subject, and to resume simultaneously with us
should they approve that course, in the hope 1
Unit from the call made upon us by the action ol
Ranks m so many ol our sister Stales, out Ueso- I
Union will have your approval, we aie respectful- !
; ly your übd’t servants.

Apalachicola, Aug.
The steamer Frances passed hereon Saturday
last, with a company of U S Troops, under the
command ot Capt. Hunter. They intend tun
harking at Chalahoochie, and scouting the coun
try between the Apalachicola ami Oclockuey
Rivers, in search of the Creek Indians that are
s ill roving about in this section of country. —
Capt Hunter s Company have hud several skim
nr idles with them lately, drove them from their
camps, and taken the wife and sister of one of
the principal Chiefs prisoners. From them it
is understood that there is a division among the
Indians; a part of them arc for murdering, burn
ing and stealing, and (bo others wish to come in
and be peaceable. If energy and perseverance
can ell’eet any thing, Capt. Hunter will give a
good account of them before many days. We
wish him success.— Gazelle.

The weather continues to be oppressive to an

wo believe,) when it did not disclose itself till the

been veij different from those of the present —

for its excessive heat, it may he still more remar

Seditious movement*; al llnvaim anti
Porto Kico.
Our Havana coircspondeiit transmitted us a
day or two since the intelligence of a military in
surroclion, the consequences of which might have
compromised the tranquillity of ttio island of Cu
ba. We would have hastened lo lay this infor
mation lu lore our leadcis, had it been mom pre
cise and explicit. The object, the extent, the
causes and the mode and conduct of this conspi
lacy were still a mystery, and onr correspondent
confined himself to a simple statement of the
lacls without entering into any details, the anthem
ticily ol which might have been questioned. Now
that vile are better informed, wc are enabled io
satisfy public curiosity without the fear of future
contradiction.
It seems that the intestine commotions which
for so many years have been afflicting the mother
country, have extended *.o its dependencies. The
island of Cuba while under the inflexible admi
nistration of Tacor, was maintained in strict ads
be-iuii and fidelity to the queen. The intrigues
ol Don Carlos al length reached Havana, and
his subsidized agents succeeded in corrupting the
fidelity of several regiments quartered in the More
Castle, As frequently happens, the plot was be.
I rayed by one ol the conspirators, and tho new
Coventor Espeleta, who follows in the footsteps
ol his predecessor, immediately took the most
I energetic measures lor its suppression. The
I doors of the barracks were closed, and the resi
| donee of tiro troops was at once converted into
rheir prison. We learn dial eighty of the most
insubordinate were executed on the spot, and an
equal number await the decision of the Governor.
As a sharp tiring was heard from the Castle, it is
presumed that tho Executive did not accomplish
his duty without determined resistances. It was
doubtless the struggle of desperate men, who
were avvaio that it subdued, their decree would
I be irreversible.
Porto Rico was somewhat disturbed by similar I
; seditious movements. A naval force has, how- '
I ever, been despatched by Espeleta, and there is '
iiltie doubt that the niiileoineiils will bo treated
n ull the same prompt urjdsignal severity by which
| Havana has been preserved from the horrors of
| intestine warfare— lbid.

Distressing Ci iicuvis i anck. —The Coroner
was yesterday called to view the body of an in
fant aged nine weeks, the child of Mrs. Caroline
Ki bbler, residing on tho corner of Church and
Warren streets. The facts concerning the death
of this infant arc extremely distressing, and must
serve as a caution to mothers in future. It ap
pears that Mrs. K,, who is a mute, and who has
been married about a year, went out lo the Asy
lum for the Deaf and Dumb, on Wednesday, to
see some of her old friends and playmates, taking
the child with her. On her return, she got out
of the ears at Walker street, and walked home,
with the child asleep in her arms. As she could
not of course hear, she was in constant anxiety
lest something should run against her and injure
the infant, so she pressed it close to her bosom
and went on at a rapid pace, tinning her head
either way almost every instant to see if any thing
was coming. On reaching home, her agony may
ho better imagined than described when on laying
the child down, she found it a lifeless corpse. In
her anxiety lo shield it from harm, she had pres
sed it 100 closely to her bosom, and being unable
to bear its cries, if any were uttered, the hapless
innocent was smothered. A female who was in
company with her, testified lo these facts before a
Coroner’s jury, who returned a verdict in aor.or

Raising tuk Wind. —This ciiy has within
the past week, been tho scene of the operations
of a Jeremy Diddler, who has contrived to lleece
not a few of our citizens. About a week since, a
person culling himself Colonel Benton, took
boarding at the Exchange Jlulel, where he repre
sented himself to be a wealthy planter from Mis
sissippi, who had come to this city for tire purpose
of purchasing slaves. His first operation was to
wail on Mr Slater and Mr B.uley, slave dealers,
and contracted with them for the purchase of
negroes to the amount of nearly $ 10,000. Ho
slated that he had not then any funds immediate
ly available, hut that he had a draft upon the U
S. Bank for $20,000, which, when cashed, would
enable him to close the bargain and pay tho bill.
His second essay was upon Mr Patterson, tailor
in South street, from whom he ordered a large
quantity of cloth ng, to he sent lo his hotel, and
charged to Dr. Benton. Clothing lo the amount
of $55, was furnished him, and goods to the
amount of $49 were cut up to be made into a
dress for him. Being thus arrayed, he entered
upon business on a largo scale. He took every
opportunity of spreading the report of bis im
mense wealth, and upon the strength of that
leputaliun endeavored to got credit. His opera
tions in that way were numerous, hut he did not
succeed iu all of them. A demonstration was
made by him upon the Mcssts. (Jamphells, jewel
er*. iu Market stri ct, from whoso stock of jewelry
he selected several valuable articles, and had
them wrapped up for lire purpose of carrying
them away, but Messrs Campbell refused lo part
with them without tho cash or good security, A
'ivory stable keeper was also tried, unci from him
he selected a pair ol match horses, which ho tried
and agreed to purchase. Mr. Acklaud, a bout
maker, also suffered lo the amount of a pair of
pumps. The gentleman was not disposed to let
lime bang heavy upon his hands either. He re
veiled in pleasure, was as munificent as a prince
in his treats, borrowed money from tho har keep
ers of the hotel lo defray his current expenses,
rode about the city in hacks upon credit, and en
joyed various other delights through the aid of
the same system. Suspicion being aroused as lo
his ability to pay his hill, he slipped off from Jew
ett’s, and look up his quarters at Barnum’s, top
resenting himself as the nephew of Senator Ben
ton, and going “the largo figure” into tho good
things nf tho establishment. Here, however, ho
was obliged to do a cash business, ami not having
■ a sufficient sum to meet the demand, very obli
| gingly borrowed it from a new acquaintance. This
j system did not suit him, and he removed to the
Eulaw house, wlieie ho ordered a suit of npait
ments becoming the dignity of the character ho
assumed. John Hoc and Richard Roe, however,
sent him an invitation to wait upon Squire Shane,
and after some considerable search he was found
in his new hotel, and escorted to the Magistrate’s
office, where he was unable to settle the claims
against him, and consequently was compelled to
take apartments in the vicinity of the Fulls. M
the Squire’s office he stated his name to be John
Benton, but he was recognized m the notorious
David Theodosius Hines, a chevalier d'lndustrie,
welt known in the Southern and Western states

ststes that such is the success which has attended
