AUGUSTA, GKO., MONDAY KVEASAG, JANUARY S 3, 1837. [Semi-weekly.]-Vo!. 1.-Ao. 7. I rlflay j vcniii(r, Jan. *O, 1837. The privilege of subscribing for 5000 shares p* *■ the increased Stock of the Georgia Insurance and Trust Company, took place to day at 11 o’clock, in front of the Company’s office. The sales were as follows: — 530 Shares at 35 premium. 100 36,25 4001 30,50 259 30,75 00 37 25 38 25 39 5,000 Wo have read with much attention the re marks of the Federal Union, Standard of Union, and Southern Recorder, and two communications 'in the Savannah Georgian, on the subject of the 'I recent transfer of a large portion of the Stock of the Insurance Bank of Columbus to Nicholas Biddle and others. There are two fatal errors in the position assumed by these presses;—The first consists in not drawing the proper disticlion between the purchase of stock in a State institu tion, and the establishment of a branch of the Pennsylvania Bank of the United Slates within the limits of the State. The second consists in supposing that because the Legislature would probably have refused the location of a Branch of the U. S. Bank in the State, it is therefore si fraud upon the Legislation of the State to pur chase stock in an institution already chartered by the Slate and becoming thereby interested in its Banking operations. It is asserted that by this transfer, the Insurance Bank becomes a Branch of the United Slates Bank, and that the bills of each will all be made payable at the other, in or >, <ler to disperse them over a wide extent of coun try and keep the bills of the former out of the hands of the other local Banks. Two years ago the State Bank of Georgia made a large.! n monnt of its bills payable at the Mechanics Bank of the city of K'evv York 1 We ask, did that make the Mechanics Bank fi branch of our State Bank 1 Whs it considered illegal dr un fair! Neither! Why then shall it be a matter of complaint if the Insurance Bank of Columbus should make its bills or a portion of them paya ble in Philadelphia! It is said to be a fraud upon the Legislation of the State, because the Legislature did not expect the stock to lie sold out of the State or to the U States Bank. This reasoning may be to delude a mob or persuade the ignorant. Bank Slock is a merchantable commodity, the owners of which 'have a right to sell to whom they please, and of which any body has a tight to become the pur 'ctiascr who is not debarred by the charter or by 'some disqualification under the generei laws of .the land. Mr. Biddle, we presume, is legally / qualified te hold stock, and if he choses to pay ttlre price of it, it is utter folly to talk about its be ing a fraud upon the community or the Legisla ture. At the late session of the Legislature of this State, the capital of the Mechanics’ Bank of this place was increased from 400,000 Dollars to .one million ; —at the same session, the Legisla ture refused to grant Banking privileges to the Insurance and Trust Company ; yet the latter institution has purchased one half of the capital of the former, at a largo premium, for the pur pose of availing themselves of the Banking pri ll vileges, which had been refused by the Legisla ture. Is this a fraud upon the Legislation of the the State ! Did the Legislature expect such a transfer! No, it is no fraud; —it is perfectly ;fair and legal and is so considered by every body. .Equally fair and legal is it for Mr. Biddle and his .copartners to purchase stock in ono of om insti tutions for tho purpose of employing a portion of Jiis surplus capital which ho cannot employ at .home. The legality of the transaction ought first to he settled, and then we can talk about the consequences. If the transaction be ’cgal, be it ever so improper, let us see that the laws of the country are sustained, free from the influence of the mobocralic and destructive doctrines of some of the leading, self-styled democrats of the day ; Doctrines which strike at the foundation of civil ■ society and the constitution itself, by assc rling the right of a State Legislature to invalidate a ■ contract to which the State itselt is a party. We consider the remarks of the Standard of Union, on this subject as supremely ridiculous. It . annnounccs the transfer in the following frighten ing and terrifying manner. “LOOKOUT FOR • SQUALLS; the MONSTER is aimin''’ us" —lt then goes on to assert that the transaction is “ a pa!liable infraction of the riff I tsaml Sovereign ty of the State," and calls upon all the people to unite in one general cry of “ /town with the mon ster anil huzza for STATE RIGHTS.” In tho name of all that is sensible what does the Stand . ard of Union mean ! Has Tom Haynes turned ; Nullificr! We hope not! If he does, our pa Xe vty is ruined—gone—sold to the dutch—We do .really suspect him ; he begins to see how tho pol itics of tho State are going, and he has resolved to take time by the forelock. Tom never was caught in a minority long, and we venture to predict that in less than twelve months he will claim to ho one of the original stock of Nullifiers, and denounce our party as a pack of vile unionists. As Major Jack Downing is wont to say, “don’t it heat al* matur,” to hear the Standard of Union prating a bout “ palpable infraction of State /lights and State Sovereignly We tell Tom in plain Slanguage that wo cannot admit him into our fam ily—he is not of us—let him go his way !—Ho Would he a Jack-daw in borrowed plumes—a wolf in shecps-clothing— apolitical Satan in the stolen tapparel of an angel of light. And then the advo cacy of “ Slate Sovereignty and Stale Rights” in the Standard of Union—how ridiculous—how preposterous — “ Lovo in my bosom, is Saint in Hell.’, The following is veritably the effusion of n member of the House of Representives, from C n county in the last Legislature, and inspired as will appear, by a young lady r of our ‘Makin tonn” whom he saw’in the gal lery. As the envied fair one may not yet bo aware of having awakened the tender passion in the bosom of any one, this publication is made to give her the hint to be prepared for a visit of the gallant swain, whom his dad tdy will, probably, soon send among us to get ’a mate. — too Ladies in the Galary Look Soe Extremely fare i’ll send my son to Makin toun To git A mate up thare.

FRO JIAH C[JIG AN] " Correspondence of the New York Express. Detroit, Jan. 4th, 1837. As many of your readers mav be personal ly interested in the prosperity of the West; and ul 1 trust are pleased with evidences of Us real and substantial growth. I lake the liberty of extracing from a Journal published .n tins town, a few facts, ascertained at the warehouses, the custom-house, from stage proprietors, and at the Ferry-house, relative to the business of this town. From the csti matb it appears that during the last season, 30 gleam-boats ot the largest class have navigated the Lake between this and Buffalo, atm tiiat two of the first class and one of the second have arrived and departed daily. I hose ot the first class averaged 300 pas sengers each way, and 50 tons ot import freight. The second class averaged CO pas sengers and 20 tons of import freight. One hundred and fifty vessels are employ, ed in navigation—an average arrival of 3, each 10 passengers and 100 tons import freight. At the ferry from Canada there has been an average monthly transportation of 200 wa gons, 150 i air of horses, 200 pairs of oxen, 800 persons. The average (which the cor respondent of the journal above referred to says is made carefully, and purposely within tiio market) presents the following result for 200 days—the season of navigation.— .1000 persons coining and going daily 200,000 400 tons of freight, import, do 80,000 The western stage office alone has received since tiie first of March last SOO,OOO ! It must be recollected that a large porion of the inter ior travel is on horseback, and by private con veyance. I have seen it stated that tbe steam er Thomas Jefferson made a nett profit of 40, 000 dollars by the bnsinesss of the season. In riding into town from a little village 10 miles, 1 have myself met 25 carta and wagons, load ed with emigrants, families mid effects, and bound for the interior. Our roads, miserable as they are, during tire navigation season liter ally swarmed with vehicles of every descrip tion. After snch statements, can men doubt of the reality and permanancy of the growth of the West! Let it be remembered that in 1821 there was but one miserable steamer up on the western lakes. Now 30 stcaulers and 150 vessels are insufficient to meet the de mands of the commerce of those same waters. While men at the East have doubted and hes itated same half dozen Slates have sprung as by magic into full maturity and strength, and have lolt the Eastern States far behind them in numbers—in wealth & enterprise. Let men he assured that the future advancement of the West is as sure as its growth has hitheHo rapid. Even miserable national policy, and ‘•Executive Treasury Orders,” will not be a ble to retard materially its prosperity. Yours, W. Anotheh Liverpool Ship Lost ox Hamp stead Beach.—By slips from our attentive cor respondents at New York, wo learn that the j/6liip Birmingham, Capt. Pattison, went ashore on Hampstead Beach on Wednesday morning about 1 o’clock. Tho Birmingham was loaded with wheal dry goods, iron, coal, &c. and had sixty pas.-cbgcrs on board. The passengers had all been landed—the ship had bilged. A steam boat had been despatched to her to render assis tance. FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE SHIP BIRMINGHAM. —Since the above was put in typo wc have received tho Courier and Enquirer ofThursday morning—eighteen hours in advance of the Express mail! From it vve have the following particulars: The Birmingham sailed from Liverpool on tho 11th November, with a full cargo. During a tempestuous voyage, she lost two men overboard, had her bulwarks stove, and a whale boat washed from the top of her cabin house. She was spo ken on the 27th ultimo by tho packet ship Sully, arrived at New York on the 3d instant, and sup plied with provisions. About two hours before she struck, she made the Highland Lights, and after running in close to the bar for a pilot and getting none, she stood,oft - shore for a time, and then hauled hci wind to the northward. At half past three o’clock on Wednesday morning, she struck while in the act of going in slays; a c&st of tho lead, the second male asserts, was takmr a few moments before, and 8 fathoms water (mind. The ship had her three whole topsails and cours es on her at the moment, hut the wind being very moderate, tho shock was hut slight. At daylight her situation being discovered, two sloops went to her assistance, and took from her tho passen gers; the sailors too, left the vessel, and also took passage in one of the sloops. All were safely landed on Roekaway beach. On Wednesday at 2 p. m. she was laying with her head olfshore, all sail set, and a considerabla of a list a port; had tvveny two inches of water in her at the time, but was informed that she made no more water than she did at sea. The wreck master was on board with 20 or 30 men, ready to assist, hut was not allowed to touch a ny thing on board. The Courier and Enquirer’s News Boat brought up her Letters and Manifest. If lighters were sent immediately down to the ship, she was no doubt got off on Thursday at high water, without any material damage. The Burmingham was formerly ono of the Liverpool packets, red star line. She is 600 tons and own ed by Silas Wood, Geo. S. Trimble, and Capt. Isaac Harris, of N. York. She has had a conlin ' uel succession of westerly gales on tho passage. From the United Stales Telegraph. STATE RIGHTS. 1 Tho Harrisburg Chronicle, from which wc ■ lake, the subjoined article, is right. Tho powers > here are laboring night and day to prostrate the , the rights of tho States, anil to consolidate all power in their own hands. Every prominent 1 party measure discloses more or less of this spir ! it. Look al the late proceedings in reference to 3 Michigan. See with what readiness —with what r “posting dexterity ” —the acts of a Slate have 1 been decreed of no account, and those of an un organized body made, by the sanction of the par ’ ty, the supreme latv. If tho doctrines ot tiiese I men prevail, the Stales will not have even the i dignity of corporations. And how is ibis alarming tendency to consoli dation to bo arrested! By again rallying upon 3 the doctrines which wore once cherished by Penn f sytvnnia herself—those old republican principles ! which were canonized by the ancient spirit of Pennsylvania freedom in the lime of her illus ‘ trious McKean. And is this spirit utterly dc -1 parted from her borders! Arc there no mon left r of tho old republican parly to defend the princi ples once held sacred! If so, tho children arc unworthy of their sires. Consolidation.— A Mr. Galbraith, in Con gress, from the northern part of this State, has f introduced into tho House of Representatives, a < memorial, praying for an amendment of tho con • slitution of the United States to restrain the i states respectively from chartering banks. This ■ is a new mode, anil another stroke at the rights ) of the States. Another effort to bring under the t control of the General Government, tho Slates. ; What will he the next step! Wo would inform r those who have the managing of matters at . Washington City, that they could not get a bet t ter tool in the country, through which to put out feelers, than this same Galbraith. Every thing thing that has been said or done by those in power at Warhington City, for the last year seems to be directed at the States. There is something in this wc do not like—it omens bad. The powers of tho General Government are al ready sufficiently great, and unless the States re sit its encroachments in the beginning, they will not have it in their power afterwards. (By the Express Mail.) WALL STREET, Monday, Jan 10 The stock market, with the exception of ono or two limaj articles, is quite Mcady, and tho money market rather easy. Saturday was u pretty light day, but the week may bo said lo havu ended del tor than it begun. Tho plentiuess of money does not, howevir, arise from any additional facilities granted by the banks. If any change has taken place in discounts since the year set in, we rather think they have eortailed, not enlarged. We know several large merchants who have had to pay up temporary loans to certain banks. What then is the cause of the ease in the money market, and tiro diminution of interest from 2 and 3 lo 1 i and If per cent a month ? It is owing lo a reduction in com mercial engagements—mm lo the arrival of largo sums df money, on private account, lo be invested in good commercial puper. There is not so much to pay as there has been paid. Men have curtailed their business, and to this it is owing that money is plenty, and to llio generosity ot the banks. Uu Saturday Harlem went down, but this is only one of the many phases of the operation that is going on. IJ. 8. Bank is firm, and likely long lo be. In loreign exchange thore was a good deal trans acted on bafardny. The market opened at 109 to 1091—it closed at 109 ito 110. It seems that there is some repugnance in purchasers to boy exchange, based on cotton shipments. 'J Ins does not arise from any dread that the great bulk of such exchange is baseless, but a fear that certain operations in tho mo ney market and manufactures of England may ef fect the price of cotton across the water. Many im porters have received advices from their correspon dents in England, not to purchase such exchange from private dealers on this side of the water, be cause there is an apprehension ill’t a great deficien cy will be realized in the proceeds oi cotton ship ments gone to England. If the price of cotton in England tall, from any cause, then it is expected that there Will boa return of a great deal ofexeliango belbre the balances of the existing crops are paid oil and liquidated. In consequence of this alarm in England, many puralmsers of exchange hero, are driven to the no cessitv ol buying of such banks in this city, as have recently turned their attention that wav. The Uni ted States Bank Agency, the State Bank, the Union, the 91 orris Canal, arm perhaps others, have recently taken hold of the exchange business, and performed several very extraordinary operations in it. Foreign exchange is gradually concentrating in these insti tutions, and the state ot the money market in Eng land, tends to give additional impulse to that con centration. if matters go on as at present, the whole foreign exchange operations of the country, will ho in the hands ol these hanks, and when they shall completely possess such a monopoly, they will make the merchants pay handsomely lor their pur chases. We look with great anxiety for tho next arrival from England, ft the pressure there should contin ue beyond our last dates, we tear a serious fall may take place in cotton, ami a consequent advance in foreign exehnge. They had not received our worst accounts at the last dales, and tho prospect looks somewhat gloomy. It appears also that in the south ern marts, the money market is not sufficiently re stored lo order and case. This arises unquestiona bly from the operations of the government, distribu ting the surplus revenue. Great masses ot'lho rev enue have been laying at Mobile and New Orleans, where it becomes the proper basis ufoommercial op erations. By the distribution law, these masses are now in the process ol being scattered into the inte rior and agricultural states. At New Orleans, there was; on the 19th of December, nearly hS 4,-500,000 ot the surplus in the banks, yet the share of that state is only about $050,01)1), or less—tho balance is to be transferred up the Mississippi, across the mountains ami some of it back lo Philadelphia. Such a stale of things effects, of course, tho great cotton opera tions, and all the foreign and domestic exchanges based on them. Real estate is very unquiet and very unsaleable. In a short time rents will bo inquired into—at present it is too cold. The groat measure in Congress Will bo the reduc tion of the tariff-—in tha Stale J .egislatures, banks nro all the rage, except in JNcw York.

Tuesday, Jan. 17. The money market continues easy, ami the slock market quite encouraging and steady. Wc are gen erally getting into a new’, fixed, and permanent channel. Preparations are making in every quar ter, to accelerate the approach of the Spring busi ness. Every etlort is limiting to begin a year’s business that will not require the aid ol capital at 20 to 30 per cent per annum. The large ane extended operations ol last year threw our mer chants entirely into the hands of usurers and capi talists. They have received a lesson and will not be caught so this year. Wo believe that cm no for mer occasion lias the supply of any goods, foreign merchandize, and a general spring assortment, been so select, neat and good, as at tills season Tbe win ter is so open, and the season so moderate, that we expect business will begin at least six weeks earlier than usual, ft is also believed, that so soon ns the proposition of Mr. Rives shall have passed tbe Sen ate, the western and southern merchants will ho ready to come to this metropolis, well furnished with funds. Tho repeal of the T reasury Order, of which there is now little doubt, will permit tbe western and southern banks tube extremely liberal in their discounts preparatory to tbe year’s business. Tho surplus w ill reach the fingers of the western mer chants, ami thus we shall goiit all back, perhaps in specie, to Wall street. While our merchants are thus preparing for their spring trade, they have not forgotton the present confused slate of tho currency, exchanges and mo ney matters. All the propositions in reference to these matters in Congress and tho Legislature, have <t been started by llio commercial classes. One pro position Ims been received very singularly in various latitudes. We allude lo the project ol a National Bank,originating in tho Board of trade. In I'liila pelphia, mis project is called the “ plot developed." It is supposed in that capital that a National Bank, originating in Congress, is injurious to their interests. We should not suppose it to be so, notwithstanding Mr. Talnmdge, ol tbe United Elates Senate, says bo is opposed to it. This subject of a National Bank springs hom the back bnuuof our commercial das -3 ses, not usurers, but tho very men who have been I paying the recent exorbitant rates ot exchange. It is lire best remedy lor the terrible confusion m the . exchange operations of tho country. , The bill of Mr. Matson in the Senate, is creating general derision. 11 tho fuurili section succeed, it w ill banish nearly 810,000,009 of capital from Wall 3 street. Tho exclusion of loreign agencies, or eorpo ■ Aatious, will operate against the Baltimore Trust ■ Company, capital nearly two millions—the United , States Agency, capital probably five millions, and . the Morris Canal Company, capital 21 millions It is said in the event of the passage of lire law', these corporations will open officers at Jersey City, and ' several of the land speculators have already begun 1 lo inquire the price of lots in that ancient capital in i consequent eof the movement of tbe Senate, i Wo generally use clinslo and classical language f m all our writings beceuse we conceive ourself to be tiro model genius ol the age, but there are curtain times and occasions when tho "strength of natural ' feeling will get the belter of mere civilization.

Ono large dealer paid away la.t year i 870,000 in interest for loann ul Ihe rates of 8, 3,4 anil 5 per cent jier month. Others have paid SBO,OOO ’ $30,000, and S 10,000. No wonder that money has been high. Real estate speculations were the sole ' cause ot it. i WRECK OF THE SCHOONER BRAZIL, i —The Courier and Enquirer says “the hull of this vessel, on Wednesday, lying sunk on tbe . Middle Bank, was raised by moans of two light - ers placed on each side of her, with cables run 1 under her bottom, ami afterwards towed tp by the steamboat Bun.” RACING IN BROADWAY. Human versus llouss Flesh. — A number of gentlemen, intimately Acquainted with the capa bilities ol stocks, rail roads, steam [tower, horse power, and man power, made a wager last week, that a certain one'among them wvald heal 4 any pair ot the best horses iu a wagon, from St. Raul’s Church to Trinity, any day', between tho hours ol 10 and 8 o’clock—the horses to go ahead in any space they could, tho gentleman the same. Tho backers of the gentleman calculated that the crowds of carriages in Broadway would cllec tually give the advantage to the human animal, who certainly is one of tho most improved bleed in the country. Bets ran from ten to one against the horses, yet, “nothing loth,” tbe owner of tbe horses felt that something would turn up to give him the advantage. The purse being made up—the anxiety of the sporting world excited lo the utmost—according ly, Saturday, at 11 o’clock, the race came oil’ at the crack of tho whip, and the word given by, tho bottle holders—“go.” In tho very midst of the crowd ol men, carriages, ladies (lovely ones) dogs, hogs, and small cattle that congregate at that hour. The driver of the horses, who had drawn up at the corner of St, Raul’s, gave a crack ot his whip, and down he went, like Jehu, in spite ot all opposition. Tho loot racer also started at a vapid pace al the same instant; the betters, and those in the secret, tipping tho wink te each oth er from both sides of the street. “Go,” said an old gentleman, when be heard the word given, and saw the whgon start ns if it bail run away—“go,” said he, putting his band on his [locket lo see if his pocket book was safe— “egad I think you will go to the devil before you stop.” “Go,” said a parson—“he looks os if ho were going tho way of all sinners.” “Go,” said a lovely lady, passing by—“is that person going to bo married ! All!” sighing— “ho does not know what it is!” Go they did. Tho driver of the horses cried “clear the way.” Tho carriages, ommubuscs and all, obeyed as fast ns they could. Every body thought the horses had run away, ami hence, every body in a crowded street got out of tho way as fast as they could. The gentleman, threading his Way through the passengers, got ahead of tho horses near Maiden lane. He walked, run, jumped, sometimes on the side walk, sometimes in the street.” “That gemman,” said a boot black, “lias his horses run off—Dina, let ’um pass—get out of do way.” Man and horse run now neck and neck—bets from ten dollars down to par, and immovable at that. They reached the City Hotel, the gentle man ahead—horses behind. The betters of 10 to lon horse flesh looked blue. Only a small distance now to bo travelled. The wagoner half way to the corner of Wall street, raised his whip and gave an unconscionable crack. His horses jumped, the omnibusscs cleared out of tbe way, and out ho Came, horses and all, just one length ahead, opposite the sacred dome of Trinity Church. The gentleman now gave in. A splendid dinner was given that day, and much wine and wit expended over the race in Broadway.—JV. I’. Herald. “The Tennessee Troops. —The steamboat Meridian arrived here yesterday frdm Tampa Bay, with 300 ot'lhc brave and gallant Tennessee Vol unteers. The residue of the Brigade look passage from Tampa for New Orleans. “Tho reflection that these troops, so gallant, highspirited, and fine looking, when they were mustered into tho United States service, in the Crock Nation last summer, should go to Florida, and there suffer as they have done, and then re turn looking as they now do—is indeed humilila ling.

If such a course should be continued towards those who lose their time and risk their lives in lighting the battles of the country, not a citizen will lie found to espouse her cause.—. V. (). Courier. Such accounts as tho above, which we trans cribe from Mobile and New-Orleaus, papers, must indeed give rise to melancholy ami humiliating feelings. Whoso is tho fault of such an unparalleled staff, of things! Private citizens, the very elitecf the country, arc called from their homes and firesides, and from all tho comforts of life, to defend the country from a murderous enemy. They arc called to tho field, and every thing has been to he procured, even the essential sustenance of life. No forecast for the support of the troops seems to he considered at all necessary, by the authorities at Washington; only get them out, seems to he their idea, then they must provide for themselves, or starve. And this has literally been the case, both in Florida and the Creek nation. Every one must feel the truth of General Beolt’s remark, that he was compelled to do the duties of every department of tho array—Quarter Master, Wa gon master, Commissary, in short, Was compelled, by the neglect of the proper departments, to do every thing; General Clinch, wo notice in his evidence, makes this most surpassing ami most censurable negligence, to tell with striking effect, upon the, authorities at Washington. In the engrossing cares, for personal and political aggrandizement; the interests of tho country, anil Hie lives and safety of the people, have been viewed but as of secondary improvement. South Carolina, by her Governor taking warn ing by experience, on the call being made on her for more of her citizens for another campaign, has wisely ami in justice to them, written to the War Department, that her quota would bo promptly furnished, when site obtained tho proper assur ance, that tho necessary supplies were provided, to keep them for starvation. This, from llio criminal neglect of tho authori ties at Washington, is a step of commendable precaution, due especially to her own citizens, and which *ve trust will likewise have tho salutary ef fect, of waking the proper authorities to a suitable souse of their past delinquency, and wo trust to belter conduct in future,—They have already ac cumulated on their hands by their past course, a vast load of public responsibility, and wc may add of public odium.— Southern Recorder, DELAWARE LEGISLATURE-—Tho whole of the election of the Uni tod Status Senator was 19 for Thomas Clayton to 7 a jjiiinst him.

There resided, many years ago, in usmull town in ono of the West India islands, an individual knwn by thu name of Waring, whoso singular habits attracted much attention, and procured for him no small degree ol'notority. Ho wits appar ently between sixly and seventy yean! fit nt-e, tall and thin, lint well binned ; and the IbvV lucks ofhair that time had span’ll, were as While as snow, and strangely contrasted with the Imshy jet-black brows beneath Which the large byes vet shone with the lustre of youlh, and told of pas sions which bad once been stormy, if they were even now at rest. Tho upper part of liH face in dicated intellect and daring, but there was a de gree of feebleness about the lips; and llni smile, which sometimes curled them, spoke of any tiling lint joy. He lived in almost total seclusion, n voiding all intercourse which was not absolutely necessary, and entirely confining himself to his own humble residence. In the front part of bis iiouse ho kept a small retail shop, and there ho was lo bo found from eatly dawn to dark, and for many years lie had pursued litis avocation, without ever attempting lo increase bis business, or holding coinriiunion with thu people about him rave in the way of trade. Those of whom he, purchased his goods were in the habit of calling on him to offer their wares, for lie was a good customer, higgling, it is true, about the price, and standing out for the lust farthing, but always [lay ing in ready money, and e-vorexhibiting tile most scrupulous honesty. In his small way Ins trade was extensive, for curiosity induced many from the neighboring country to call upon Him; uml in the town, the lower classes and the negroes pre ferred dealing with one who they werb sure would not take advantage of (heir igiiohinee lo defraud them-—a degree of integrity remarkably rare among the potty shop-keepers of . Os his early history nothing was known. Ho had come to the island in n small schooner, from some port injNorlli America, and. soon ufter Ins arrival, took on lease the house in which lie established himself, and wliicli hi! afterwards purchased. In the rear of bis dwelling was a tolerably large lot, which he had enclosed with a high paling, so us cft'eciuiilly Id prevent his neighbors from watch ing his moveilients, and here he had refilled for years, entirely alone. Tho delicious fruits and vegetables ol that sunny dime and fruitful soil, which constituted his only food, were brought lo bis door for sale; and his habits of untiring in dustry enabled him easily todispelme with the at tendance ofa domestic. As he was not known lo make any deposit or investment of the money ho received, a notion generally obtained, that fie was in the lialiit of burying it somewhere in the lot of ground which lie bail fenced in go carefully. Following tip this idea, a plot bad been laid l(v 1 some desperadoes, lo discover, if possible, tlfii place of concealment, and possess themselves ot tiie treasure. Three of them, one night, seale d the fence, and concealing themselves behind soir.e empty hogsheads, awaited the coining lon.it c 1 their intended victim, who, lliey cugjectuivt, 1 would visit, liis hidden treasure. Their motion;, however, did not escape the vigilance ol Mr. War ing. lie came forth, it is true, and they rushed upon him,lint two oftiicm received the contents of a bludcrhnss, hy which lliey were instantly killed, and before the third recovered from Ids surprise, he was cut down by tiie blow ofa same. The noise of course occasioned an alarm,and a crowd collected lo look inlolbe cause. All informa tion was refused, however, until the civil anlbor- Uies should be present. They were jaml for,and, upon their arrival, Mr. Waring unbarred bis door, and led the way iulo the y ard. “I have been saving llio courts and the hang man trouble,” said the gray-haired old man, as he pointed with a grim smile, to tiie bodies that lay drenched in gore; “take the Carrion away.” From thatlhoe this singular being remained unmolested, by cither the intrusions of curiosity, , or the assaults of villainy.

One morning, to my great suprise, I received, by a negro hoy, a nolo from Mr. Waring, saying that he desired an interview with me, which must bn strictly private, and requesting me. if it suited my convenience, to call upon him at dusk. No tri lling cause would have prevented my obedience i to this summons, Accordingly, ul tho lime ap pointed; 1 repaired to Mr. \V tiring's shop.

About a quarter of an hour elapsed hoforo ho joined me, and in the meantime I took a survey of tho apartment. 1 have seldom seen a more wretched abode. An old leathern couch, a rieketty table, two chairs, (one I strong ly suspected for the nonce,) and an old wooden clothes chest, comprised Iho main portion of the furniture. Tho walls were Imre, suvo where the spiders had hung their Inpcalry; bundles of rags and tjondcscripl remnants of various useless things,were smiled in every corner, and the win 1 1 wore the appearance of squalid poverty or pinch ing avarice.
