My object at present is to show, that they cannot exist in any ellicienl form under the fatal operation of the divorce and hard money scheme. It is (lerlmps unnecessary to say more on this point. Upon n proposition so clear it is idle to amplify. .It does not come within the scope of my dcffgn In defend the late deposito system. Uni the objection urged against it by a “Nul litior” is most extraordinary. He is at a loss to discover what right (lie Government has to employ State Banks —and inclines to the opinion that if the Banks should he injured by the charge of Government depo,sites instead of being benefit!ed, that the stockholders might find redress in a Court of Chancery. This is a view of the subject, which I appre hend IJt.it writer may claim tlie silo merit of having originated. It inks open their doors to the whole world, and the Government through its agents, is at ported liberty to de posit!: its tends wllli I, iciii, precisely upon the sanin footing as individuals. It. rests with the Banks In act upon tins trust discreetly or indiscreclly-it is to the Government a mutter ol no concern so long ns they account faith fully to them.

I shall offer further views of this silli ed which J hope will satisfy the candid of ill parties who think for themselves that the divorce and Sub-Treasury system is unwise uul impracticable. JUNIUS BRUTUS. Singular Love Adair. I’ho Delaware Gazette tells a good story of two lersuns saved from the wreck of the Pulaski, which we will endeavor to repeal in a few words: Among the passengers was Mr. Ridge, a young nan ol wealth and standing, from New Oilcans, who, being a stranger to ait on hoard, anil feeling juitc as miii h interest in his own safely as in that if any other person, was, in the midst of the tonfusion which followed the dreadful cutaslro die, about helping himself to a place in one of he boats, when a young holy who had frequently dieiled his udmiinlion during (he voyage, Inn villi whom he was totally unacquainted, atlinct •d his attention, and he immediately stepped lor ward to oiler his sei vices, amt to assist her on mard the boat; but in tins generous attempt not only lost sight of die young lady, but also lost his place in the boat. Afterwards when he dis covered that the pan of lbe wreek on which he limited would soon go down, lie east ahum lor the means of preservation, anil lashing t 'gather a eouple of sellers nod an empty cask bo sprang to it and lartnelied himself upon the wide ocean. Ills vessel proved heller than he expected, and amidst (lie shrieks, groans and death struggles which were every where uttoied around him, be began lo feel that bis lot was fortunate, mid whs consoling (himself upon Ins escape, sueli as n wa-, when a person struggling m (ho waxes very | near him, caught his eye.

Under these ciieumsta.uces he proposed ma king an effort lo get his eomfanion in one of the boats which was suit hovering near the wreck, but the propositi.>n oflere Iso little chance of suc cess that she declined, expressing her willingness at lhe same time lo lake her chance with him either for lile or death, fortunately they diiflrd upon a part of the wreck which furnished them with materials for strengthening their vessel, mul which were turned lo such good account that they soon sat upon a llonl suHicienlly buoyant to keep them above the water, mid when the mono iug dawned,they loniut themselves upon the broad surface of the ‘’vasty deep’’ without land or sad si human being in sight—without a ir.orscl to 1 eat oi drink—almost without clothes, mul expo | sed to the binning heat of a tropical sun. In the course ol the next day they came in I i ;!il ol land, and foi n lime had strong hopes of reaching it, hut during the succeeding night the wind drove them hack upon the ocean. On the third day a sail was seen in th" distance, hut they lout no means of making ihoinselxes discovered.

From the boasted independence ol the Union nominees, it is expected they will give frank and prompt answers to the above intciroga tories. Concluding passagers of Mr. Poindexter’s fel ler to the Bond dinner, Ohio : Ihe honest, hut misguided and deceived, peo- 1 pie, in every quarter of the Union, required pre cisely such a speech as Mr. Bond has given, to 1 I rescue them from darkness spread over their j minds hy artful demagogues, sycophants and of- \ flee holders. Tho facts rest upon reford, and a may he found among the archives of the Govern- v nienl; none can wink so hard as not lo too and understand them ; and if there he an American citizen so hound in partizan chains as not to open r his eyes to truths thus disclosed and established, such an one might well stand as a monument ol I blind infatuation produced on the human mind by ' the blighting influence of man worshi/i. I frank- < ly own that for a season, I placed implicit reli- I mice cm the professions of the late Chief Magis- 1 Irate, made under his own sign manuel: I enter- < ed the Senate of the Union with the fixed pur pose of supporting the principles lie had given to 1 the nation and lo thu world as the basis ot Ins ad- 1 ministration ; but 1 soon discovered the discre pancy between three principles and lias practice which marked the conduct id President Jackson. I witnessed all, or nearly all, which Mr. Bond had said, and loving Rome more than Cawar, 1 clung to my country and denounced the usurper. Ma ny greater and belter men than myself fell into the same error and shared the. same fortune—be lieving, as I do, that the day of our deliverance from the iron grasp of executive power, unres trained hy constitutional limitations, and susluiii ed by patronage and corruption, is at hand. 1 look with (he most anxious solicitude and cheer ing hopes lo the approaching elections, on the re sult of which hang the future destinies of the Re. public, l.et the Whigs be true to themselves and the country, without regard lo personal pre ferences; while divisions must ever bring defeat and discomfiture, and u glorious victory awaits us.

Ho is a very suitable candidate for ibal parly. The Clicrohees, The Western Georgian of the 28lh contains the following information in relation to lire Chc rokees; “ In a former number of nur paper wo noticed the excitement which existed among iho Chero kee* in relation to their removal by Ross; the greater part of whom had declared a decided pro fercuce to be removed by the Government. This excitement had not ahaled, but ratber increased, and will, it is thought, have a tendency greatly to embarrass and retard their removal. Unless a reconciliation is brought about between the two parties, ncl that speedily, another suspension will ensue, us vve presume the agents of the Govern ment would not consent to their departure under existing circumstances, even i( they were willing to leave ; which is no* the case, there being a goodly number of respectable men among them, determined not to emigrate under present arrange ments. Repeatedly disappeared in their expert, (aliens, the common Indians have lost all confi dence in Ross, and will no longer lamely submit to his impositions, or willingly trust (heir /.'iinihes to his protection.” “Since writing lire above, we learn that some six hundred had left Iho encampment, and were making their way back to North Carolina, deter mined not to emigrate under Ross’ agency.” The Cassville Pioneer, of the same dale, in corroboration ol the above, says: “ Ity a gentleman just from the Agency, we learn, that about 1200 Cherukees have left that place, and taken to the -woods. These Indians, we understand, are of the Ridge or treaty parly, and consequently are not in lavor of ueing reino. veal by Ross.” The Southern Recorder speaking of the above rumor, says : “ Should these reports unfortunately ho con firmed, v hat a heavy accountability will rest upon the. heads of Mr. Van Huron and his mer cenary advisers ! It was we believe in his last letler to the Secretary of War, pending the cxe. cution of the Treaty, that Governor Gilmer de clared, that he had lost all confidence in John Ross, and prophetically it would scorn, forewarned the Department that he was too dangerous and subtle an agent to be entrusted witlr lire, management of the affairs of the Cberokees— yet, notwithstanding, it appears that the great responsibility of their removal has been entrusted to his superintendence. On the 14lh April, Gov. Gilmer, in alluding to tbe conduct of Ross writes Mr. Poinsett as follows: “ 1 send you an extract of a letter just received from Ross, in answer to a communication which I addressed him at the same lime I wrote to you. / am convinced that I was mistaken in my endeavor to make him an instrument for doing good. The loss of all ho/ics of attaining the co-operation of /toss in removing the Cherukees, has added to my anxiety Unit the most ample means should he used to secure our citizens from the effects of his machinations.” The letler from which the above is extracted wtis written, lot it be remembered, nearly two months previous to the time for carrying the treaty into execution—and, in the language used, I it will bu seen that the Government, through its j War Minister, Was forewarned—emphatically forewarned—of the machinations of Ross. For whatever, then, of mischief or disaster may result from the reported movements of lire Cherukees, the General Government and its Party, we repeat, arc alone and altogether accountable.” [Communicated J Mn. Editoii.— l yesterday morning read a piece in your paper headed “Public Works,” and signed by u writer who calls himself “Franklin,” , i which 1 shall not sutler to pass without some re. I marks, us this writer, under the appearance of religion and morality, has made the most wanton, reckless arid unfounded charges against Northern and Eastern cities, without any grounds to sup port them, I have ever read. Ho is either totally ignorant of those cities, or intentionally false. Who ever heard of Iho poor people ol Europe being contaminated in their morals, by working on tbe public works at the North and East, and living in Northern and Eastern cities, which this writer asserts must bo manifest, from the “fact that those who arrive direct from Europe, are industrious, moral and temperate.” Really, Mr. h ranklin, have you ever seen those that have arrived direct from Europe?— if you have, you know them to bo no belter than those who come f,om the North and East. All writers have des cribed these people in their own country, just as we sec them every day ; and their worst fault is said to be intemperance. As for your saying that the Northern and Eastern cities and their cm ployers “have most awfully trilled with their morality, it shows you know nothing about how wotk is carried on. There, as well as here, labor- I l 'r» do pretty much as they please, so they do lltcir work—and it one contractor don’t suit them ithey go to another, nwd perhaps at another work altogether, particularly at the North ami East, where there have been a greater number of pub lic works going on than hero —and llral llicir morality is as little neglected there as here, or any where else, the very advertisement ot E. ' While &, (Jo •, which you copy, will fully prove. , Who lias ever teen such an advertisement in ibis i | part of tin; country 'l —Sir, I can hardly read j 1 your article without believing that there is some | ! very wrung feelings- in your bosom, towards the North and East, which lias caused you to over, lock truth and fuels —nor I cannot believe any one of those poor people, w hoso lot is cast in so j humble a sphere, would have the heart to have penned such an article. Contractors at the North and East, as well 4s j here, are as independent as their employers, and j would not submit to that dictation which Mr. j Franklin advocates, any more than the men would I submit to it from the contractors. Employers do I not hire men to dictate, preach and force morality and religion on them ; and however highly grati- I lying it might bo to see them possess those qual j ilies, they leave to their pastors and good men, to do what they can by persuasion and example. X. Tint St lungers' Fever. The following mode of treatment for the cure of this disease, said to have proved very efficient in former years, we copy from the Charleston Courier of Tuesday last. It was the treatment practiced by the Hev. Dr. Furman in 1817 and 1810, who met with the most extraordinary success With ids patients: . I mode of treatment -which has generally been sHccefful for the cure of Yello w Fever. If the patient be of a plethoric habit, or full of hluod, and the symptoms run high, that is the pains, heat and redness of the eye, with a hard pulse, bleed moderately at the beginning, Uul without delay, lake about three drachms of the seneca snake root, and reduce it to a powder, put it in a convenient earthen vessel, and pour to ii a half a pint of boiling water, cover the vessel and let the tea simmer before the fire about half an hour, when it will be lit for use—tlien pul a dose and a halt or two doses of salts, say four ounces for an adult, into a vessel and pour on them as much of the hot tea as will be sufficient to melt them, and as soon ns the mixture is cool, give a small wine glass full every twelve, fifteen or twen ty minutes, until fifteen or Iweniy motions are procured, or till lire stomach and bowels are well cleansed, for it is of the utmost importance that they he well emptied as soon as possible. Then stop the use of tlie mixture and give the lea alone, in the same quantity as before, but at tlw inter, val of an hour and a half, observing to sweeten it with sugar by which it will be rendered more agreeable to the stomach. This is to be confirm, eil until the fever and pains aro rcnlOvcd, which is often clfccled in the course of twenty four hours or less, fc-hould the first dose of the salts arid lea mixed ho thrown up, and the body of the patient bo found to be in a costive slate, it will be proper to use injections early, in order to insure and facilitate the operation of the medicine, as a cathartic; and if. after the first evacuation and the use of the tea for several hours, the body is not kept sufficiently open, which may generally be known by the redness of the eye, the often siveness of the stools, a dry skin, a hard and some times a feeble pulse, drowsiness or restless ness, anil a disposition of the stomach to eject the tea. jt will be proper to resort to the mixture again, until free evacuations are procured, or (ill the. pallet?i has live or six motions, then go on with the tea iJone, as before. Dot should the disease assume a putrid form and any matter of a black or dark he ejected from the slo macb or pass from the hcvt'cls, a nine wean nine water alone or united with svVoet milk, may be given in the intervals between ti.o limes of taking die snake root; injections also may from lime to time bo administered to advantage, when the skin is dry and the patient uneasy, especially when the 1 ody is not sufficiently open. When the fe ver goes oil" it will be proper to give small doses of Colombo root, (say live grains) at the interval of an hour and a half, and if they set well on the stomach, and the patient feels invigorated, the dose may he augmented to leu grains. But should there he a return of the fever, this medicine must bo laid aside, and the Snake root used as before. When the disease is evidently in its putrid stage, the Virginia or Small Snake root may be used to advantage, with which, in certain cases, the de coction of bark may be combined, a weakness of the pulse and a general debility of the patient will point out the propriety of this combination. When in the first stage tbe lever is high with a distressing heat and dry skin, it will bo proper to give a few grains of nitre every hour or two, and to wash (he hands, face and feel in cold water se veral times a day. The application of cold water to the forehead, by means of a linen cloth, seve ral limes folded, when the head is much affected, hut especially if there is a delirium, is of exccl j lent use. The cloth, during this stale of things, | should he frequently immersed in the coldest vva j ter that cun he procured, hut when perspiration commences, this application and the washing must he laid aside. The clysters mentioned above may he of lire usual kind, of very thin gruel, to which may he added a little Molasses and Oil, nnd.a small quantity of .Salts, or it may ho made |of Mallow or Mullau lea, with the addition of a | litlie Oil and Salts.

The commodore has also brought with him a few of the broad tailed Syrian sheep, valued for their quality of mu ton and thetr quantity of fleece.

Money Market. Friday, August 31. The market (or bills on England opened with sales of first rate bills, at 9' per cent. The mod crate demand existing, however, caused the rato : early to decline to 9 a U,| per cent, at which soles I wore current. On France sales wcie made in i most instances at f. 5. 22A per dollar. The opin ion is now generally entertained that exchange for i a long lime to come, cannot go over per cent i which is a little above par, as the banks have not I only large amounts of cotton to draw against, but ! there is also a heavy amount of stale slocks gold j recently, the proceeds of which are to be drawn lor, and the demand is by no means largo. The sale 0f2.50,000 sla'e stocks, which was to bate taken place yesterday at public auction, to aid in the construction of the Auburn and Syracuse Rail Road, lias been postponed until the 13th proximo. This slock bears an interest of five per cent per annum, payable quartetly at the Phonix Rank, the principal reimburseable at the pleasure of the legislature after twenty years.
