It seems to he the fate of men placed on thrones to distrust their host friends, and to weary them out with unjust suspicions Ido not intend to examine into the fact, whether Touche, soured by disgrace in 1810, I,crania a traitor in 1815. i lie conduct ot the minister at ibis period is very naturally explained, in an answer which he gave to a question addressed to him by the Emperor, at the moment of his sotting out on tho cam paign of 1809. \Vhat will you do, Touche, should I happen to die by a cannon ball or other accident ! I would seize a much power as I could, to avoid the necessity of being governed hy events. Very good ; it is the privilege ul tho game. VV hat I wish to say here is, that Touche was tho host minister of Napoleon, and the ono best p.accj to boos service to him. After having suppressed the revolution, Napoleon as Tirst Con sul. or Emperor, was engaged in bringing about a reaction. Touche was the only minister who moderated this movement, useful and necessary if arrested at a given point, but dangerous if pushed beyond. i he Emperor was inclined to sec only ene mies among those over whom he had immediately triumphed. Ho forgot tbit those very persons hud themselves conquered others, and that those others would not pardon him for having finally profiled hy the first victory. Touche was convinced that the royalists wore the true enemies ot the Emperor. He took caro of. and de'onded tho Jacobins, over whom his farmer connections enabled him to exercise a very great moral influence; and ho oppressed, with the whole veiglit of hia hatred, the royalists, whom ho had learnt to appreciate correctly. This conduct of Touche, contrary to the private opin ions of the Emperor, gave rise to frequent and violent quarrels between Napoleon and hia Minis ter. When, after tho explosion of the third Nivosc, tho Tirst Consul returned to the Tuillorics, tho calnt' which he had preserved during tho whole evening at the opera, gave place to a terrible fit of passion. Ilia fiist accusation was, as usual, against the Jacobins, and indirectly, in ambiguous terms, against Touche himself. Tho Minister perceived it, his disgrace appeared imminent, but bo did not bend ; without a moment’s hesitation he defended the Jacobins, and accused the royal ists. Even afterwards, when the truth was known, Napoleon did not forgive his Minister, not because he had suffered so dangerous a con spiracy to bo consummated, but because bo had been in the right in opposing him and his secret affection*. Tho Minister, who could not be openly struck, was assailed through his department, Tho Mi nistry of Police was suppressed, and that depart ment was annexed to tho Ministry of Justice, i his was an error, and a most serious one. The chief judge Minister of Justice, called (ho Police the disgraceful part of his ministry, Tho Police wanting, undet his management, the direction ne cessary to so complicated a department, suffered tho conspiracy of Georges to break out. Touche always appeared to me the very model of a minister for a free government succeeding a revolution. Ho possessed, under tho consulate end lha empire, the merit, at that time very rare, of having nn opinion of his own on men and thing*, of daring to support it against a master who suffered little contradiction, and of acting in keeping with that opinion. Touche alone under the consulate ami the empire, was really n minister; after his disgrace, there wore only ■clerks, very good tor executing or transmitting order*, but incapable themselves of any important step. In 18119, after the battle of Tiding, so fatal to our eayalcy, at the moment that NapuUon, having hia hriJgos on the Danube carried away, saw his Rrnty separated by that river, and placed in a pe rilous situated, which exacted of hint prodigies of valor and genius, information was brought to Pans that Lord Chatham, brother of Pill, at the bead of an English expedition, having carried Flushing, was advancing upon Antwerp, and threatened Belgium. On tho receipt oflhia news, the Prince Arch-Chancellor assembled a council of Ministers. Touche, who had returned to the Ministry in 1804, assisted at it. His advice was lo appeal immediately to tho National Guards, and to send them against the enemy. “What would the emperor and the army say, if Franco, defended by them abroad, should suiter iter hearths to bo insulted while waiting their as sistance!’’ Euch were the words of the Minister of Police. The Arch-Chancellor replied: “Monsieur Touche. I do not wish to have my head cut olf. I have despatched a courier to the Emperor—wo must await his answer.” “And for my pail,” replied the Minister of Police, “ I will do my duty while awaiting it.” On that voty day, while the Arch-Chancellor, the Minister of War, and the Minister of the In terior guarded silence, tho Minister of Police ad dressed lias manifesto to the bravery of Trench men. and ordered the National Gua ds through out tho empire to march. From -this circum stance one may sec what a man Touche was— what energetic influence he was capable of giv ing to public affair*. The seventeenth day after the circular of the Minister, the department of the north set in motion the last detachment of B levee of 11.O0U man. in uniform, armed and equipped. M. de Pomraercuil was Preftctof this de|sirt)nciil, 'Phi' department of Moselle, equal, ly distinguished itself on this occasion ; it had M. de Vuublano for Prefect, who has since lived through the whole Restoration on his reputation of a good Prefect under the empire. The Eng lish expedition retired precipitately before the T rench militia, to whom Toueho had giveq the Prince of Ponte-Corvo fur Chief, much a* he was ftlft offivor at that moment, J'ho Emperor cither could not or dared not blame the Minister of Police ; but ho openly ex pressed his dissatisfaction that, in hi* empire, tiny single Minister had sufficient power tq raise etiJ to arm the whole country, The secret of tho second disgrace of Touche, is, perhaps, to bo found in tbe great service which he rendered lo the Emperor in 1809. It was de terred for onp yea;, and attributed to an entirely different cause—,to a cause to which the Eropo for, in fttll council of ministers, gave all the grav ity of a charge of high treason, hut which, at bottom, had nothin: serious in it, if it was not a farce p spared on purpose.

Affecting Instance of Feu alb Devo tedness.—About twelve months ago wn saw at tfre bar ot a police office an ill-looking powerful young fellow who was undergo ng ait examination, on the very common charge of having, on the previous night, ill-treated a woman, with whom he lived in some court hard by. Several witnesses bore testimony lo acts of gross brutality ; and a certificate was read Irom tho house-sug' un of a neigh boring hospital, describing the nature of the injuries the woman had received, intimating that her recovery was extremely doubtfixT Some question appeared to have been raised about the identity of the prisoner; for when it was agreed that the 2 magistrates should visit the hospital ut eight o’clock that, evening, to take Iter deposition, it was settled that the man should be taken there also, lie turned deadly pale at this, and we saw him clench the bar very hard when the order was given. He was removed directly afterwards, and he spoke not a word. Wo felt nn irrepressible curiosity to Witness this interview, although it is hard to tell why at th s instant, for we knew it must he a painful one. It was no very difficult matter for us to gain permission, and we obtained it. The prisoner and officer I who had him in cu.lody, were already at the hospital when we reached it, and waiting the arrival o( the magistrates in a small room be low stairs. The min was handcuffed, and his hat was pulled forward over Ins eyes. It was easy to see, though hy the livid white ot itis countenance, and (he constant twitch ing of the muscles of his lace, that he dread ed wlmt was to come. A ter a short interval we were conducted to the “casually ward,” m which she was lying. She was a line young woman of about two or throe ami twenty. Her long black hair had been hastily cut from the wounds on her head; and streamed over the pillow in jagged and matted locks. Her face bore frightful marks of the ill tisag • she had received; her hand was pressed upon her side, us if her chief pain was there; her breathing was short and heavy; and it was plum to see that she was dying fast. She murmured a few word* in reply to the magistrate’s inquiry, whether she was in great pain ; and having been raised on the pillow by the nurse, looked anxiously into tho strange countenances that surrounded her bed. The magistrate nodded to tho officer lo bring the man forward. He did so, and stationed him at the bed side. The girl looked on, with a wild and troubled ex pression of face; but her sightwas dim, and she did not know him. “Take oft'his hat,” said tho inasgislratis. The officer did as he was desired, and tho Rian’s features wore ful ly disclosed. The girl started up, with an energy quite preternatural; tho (ire gleamed in Iter heavy eyes, and the blood rushed to Iter pale and sunken checks. It was a convulsive effort. She fell back upon her pillow, and covering her scarred and bruised face with Iter hands, burst into tears. The man cast an anxious look towards her, hut otherwise appeared wholly unmoved. After a brief pause tho na ture of their errand was explained, and the oath tendered. “Oh no, gentlemen ” said (he girl, raising herself once more, and folding her hands together; “no, no, gentlemen! I did it myself-—it was nobody’s fault—it was an accident. lie did'nt hurt me; ho would'nl for the world. Jack, dear Jack; you know you wouldn’t.” Her sight was fast failing her, and her hand groped over the bed-clotbcs in acarclt of bis, in vain. Brule as the man was, bo was not prepared for this. He turn ed bis face front the bed, and sobbed aloud. The girl’s color changed, and Iter breathing grew more difficult. Him was evidently dy ing. “Wo respect the (celings which prompt you to this,” said the gentleman who had spo ken first, “hut lot me warn yon not to persist in what you know to be untrue, until it is too laic. It cannot save him.” “Jack,” mur mured the girl, laying her hand upon his arm. “they shall not persuade me to life nway. Ho didn’t do it, gentlemen. He never hurt me.” She grasped his arm tightly, and added, in a broken whisper, “I hope God Almij hlly will forgive me all the wrong I hate done, and the life 1 have led. God bless you, Jack. Some kind gentleman take my love to my poor old father. Five years ago, ho s till he wished 1 had died a child. Oh, 1 wish I hid! Iw.sh I had I” The nurse bent over the girl a lew seconds, and limit drew the sheer over her tace.

The Treasury Circular will not be rescinded by Mr. Van Burnt! This, we understand, is now the fiat at Washington. Tim people of the middle age*, never fixed their eyes more intently upon Rome, when a I’apal 801 l was about to be fulminated, than do we, a free people (what mockery in the nami!) now upon Washington for everything of hope, or dread. Fact it is, that Mr. van Buren indirectly authorized the Van Bttrett Senators of the North, and the West, and the South-West to report, as they returned to their homes, that the Treasury Circular would soon be rescinded ; but fact it is also, that the finger of “Ok Hickory” but shaken at him in wrath, is more terrible in his eyes than all the convulsions of an afflicted people. It is understood, that Mr. Van Buren would repeal ilia Treasury Circular but he dure not. King Log shivers like an aspen leaf at the very croak of King Stork ! This is a popular government wo are told ! Congress is the authorized Exponent of the will of the people! The voice of this people is the voice of Godl Beautiful all this in the ory, and delicious to dwell upon, but what nonsense it is in our practice now ! The prin ciple of the Treasury Circular for example, when first proposed in the United States Sen ate, just before the Summer adjournment oftbe last Congress, met with tho support of but | .»ue vole, .arid that vy as Thomas ll f) tut on ;* “solitary end alone.” But the moment Con ft gross was off, the fiat of the President made it h law. Congress aaaetnbled a tram. But seven ‘t | Senators out of 52 supported the Circuit, and i an immense majority m the Home p ts/cd an act repealing it, and putting it out of the puw '• cr of tin President to issue such a circulars v gam. The President approves it! Oh no. i lie vetoes it! Oh no. But be pockets it till ? Congress adjourns, lie dares not veto it, for c be it will pass, but be pockets it till a Congress is off, when it cannot become a law. 1 Now there are those, who in the face of y these facts tell us, this is a popular govern ° ment! There are those who cry down the the despotism of Austria, and Russia, and e who chuckle over “ the sublimity of American g freedom.” What a lesson is but the pl-ttn h statement of these facts to the oppressed of tl Poland, and of Italy, to rest quiet iu their l subjection, (or no where on this broad earth, • dare a tyrant outrage his people more I 1 Congress has spoken with all the power 3 with which it could speak, &has commanded d the repeal of the Treasury Order. But Con h gross alone is not thconly authority that com t- mauds. If Mr. Van Bitten is deaf lo the 8 voice of Congress, is he deaf to the thunders e of popular clamor 1 ! If so, the bolts of indig h nation will soon reach his ear. The Whigs L ’ ’of the whole Union speak, and they, be it ever 0 remembered, are now a majority of the people, ■ as w.s proved by the last Presidential election r —but the Whigs alone do not speak. All B parlies have but one common cry on this sub -5 joct, and that is, Repeal the Treasury • Circular. New York is not only the city 1 that rings with the cry—but every city on the I Atlantic, and every city on the Lakes, rings - with a loud response. Our letters from Washington, and the • Journals ot the new Stales, (from VVittcon -1 sin in particular,) tell us that large sales in > the public lands are yet going on, —Twenty I five Millions of dollars, we shall again r probably have as a revenue from that source. '■ Is Mr. Van Buren mad enough to force tbe people to pay for all this in specie, while the merchants in the Atlantic Slates can pay ' in paper for all their Custom House dues? . Who gave him a right to distinguish between I one class of public debtors and another? ■ Who authorised him lo inflict this stigma 1 upon the West! If the Experiment is to be i pushed, why not push it out, and drive the I importer to the Custom House with his cart loads of dollars and cents, as well os ti e land purchaser of the West? In this condition of things, wo say unhesi tatingly, and we say it with the knowledge of tho fact that the publication will meet with many European eyes,—this is no longer a free government,—our Constitution is disregarded —the public voice is mocked at in scorn, —an Executive tyranny oppresses us, and then laughs at our complaints—there is no equali ty,—unequal laws are promulgated, and were there not tbe means of Revolution established ' at the Polls by law,—with no standing army I in our way, the quicker we resolved to throw off such a yoke, the better for that Liberty I and Equality of which we boast. Our only i remedy is the Polls. It is the remedy of ike law. Whoever suffers must resort there for redress. Loss of the brio General Warren. — ' A passenger who arrived in this city yester day, states that the brig General Warren, Captain Hart, bound from Mobile to New York, was lost on the Bahama Banks, on the 17tli of last month. The passengers, Samu el Keene, William Armstrong, Daniel Wal ters and John Waldic, wore fourteen days on the rocks, and experienced great suffering. We learn that the cargo-tvas principally sa ved. It happened that in consequence of a Cuba slaver being wrecked upon a neighbor ; ing rock ut about the same lime, no attention was paid to the unfortunate passengers and mariners of the General Warren; the men belonging to the lighters and other boats that came off being engaged in taking off the slaves and cargo of the Spaniard. The ves sel struck on a low key 100 miles from the neatest inhabited port, and the condition of ■ the long boat was such that they dared not ! venture in her lo sea. A wrecker was at length induced to carry them lo Nassau, N. P.» .. hence they sailed for this city, with tho exception of the captain, who remains to take care of the properly of the owner, Mr. Gideon Howell, of Now York.— Phil. Inquirer. Friday levelling, April 7, (8 i - Wc tiro requested to say that Divine Service may bo expected in the Methodist Church this evening, and to-morrow evening, at early candle , light. A great match race was recently run over tho n.iscoml e Course near Mobile, between Birming ham and Scarlet, in which the latter was distanc ed ; tho former making the heal in 7m 48s. The Mobile Mercantile Advertiser mentions that it is holler lime than that made by Bascombe in his i 1 race with Post Boy. The Advertiser should re . collect that Bascombo’s lime in tho Argylo Race ■ was 7m. 445. Having expressed the intention to vote in favor of granting the Millcdgovillo Bank the pri vilege of locating a branch in this city, wc shall ’ now slate briefly the reasons hy which wo are in fluenced to take that course. We are interested in no Dank whatever, and entertain neither lecl ings of partiality or hostility to any. Banks are created for the double purpose of subserving the interests of tho community and promoting the ; private interests of individuals. The legislature i has the former of these objects in view in granting charters, and tho stockholders are influenced hy the latter in investing their funds. Tho in ( tcrcsts of the public arc subserved by affording a safe and convenient circulating medium ; facili ■ luting exchanges between diflerent parts of the . country, and enabling mercantile men ly loans | and discounts, to carry on their business with convenience and punctuality. So long as they act up to the cud for which they arc created, and . confine themselves lo the strict and proper princi ples of Banking, they deserve the encouragement of the public and ate a public benefit. The idea of a metalic currency in the present ago of tbe world is perfectly preposterous and absurd. The , amount of capital invested in banking should al. ways be cot respondent lo the business of the com munity in which it is located; or rather it should | be correspondent to that amount of business, , which, by its aid, the community may be capable . of doing. Bank capital, properly used for the i legitimate ends of Banking, exerts a powerful in i fluencc in increasing and extending tho business of a place, by enabling mercantile men to meet I their contracts with punctuality; to keep on band , stock* adequate to the wants ol their customers— i to exlcud reasonable indulgence to their country 1 debtors—to enable them to bear up against the j pressure* which often come suddenly upon the ; commercial world. By its timely aid, merchants I ate often enabled lo maintain unimpaired their credit, which might otherwise, however good | their business, bo destroyed, t Wo are of opinion that the business of Augus ta might be increased by an augmentation of its ‘ Banking Capital. Either the capital at present invested here is not sufficient, or else it is so used , as not to meet the wants of ths community. At ’ the present time our city is filled with complaints | that msney cannot be had from the Banks; Cot ton i. at tm(h a price that Planters will not sell. ■ml therefore neither pa; Up their exuling Joes • or make purchases fur cash, thus leaving the j Merchant without the means of mealing his hus | in ess engagements. 'i’he Constitutionalist ot . Wednesday, in commenting upon this subject . says that none have been injured by the contrac ■ lion of the Hanks, and fur this, gives the Banks ‘ great credit for past good management. We I think the credit is due to the Merchants, fur be ing able at a time like this, to sustain themselves f with little or no aid from the Banks; and that it . is nothing to the credit of the Bonks to refuse ' accommodation to a community of Merchants, who have given such an evidence of soundness and punctuality, f Our own opinion is that there is not sufficient r Banking capital in the place for its business, ■ and that what is already here, is not so managed as to be productive of as great a quantum of good as it might. There arc two praciices of the hanks . here, one of which is in our judgment, suicidal, . and the other highly detrimental to the mercan ! tile interests. The first is the rule to receive ’ none hut city paper in payment for checks on the north ; and the other is the practice of exacting r weekly settlements from each other. Os each of , these we shall speak briefly, i It is said to he the true principle of Banking I that every hank should do business upon its own ‘ hills, keeping them as much as possible in circu latum ; but the practice of requiring city bills in payment for checks, is one of the most effective i measures which could be devised, to bring hack speedily and constantly upon the banks the ! hills which they have issued. This is the point at which a very large portion of the merchants of the interior, purchase exchanges i upon the north. When a country merchant wishes to make a remittance, he gathers up all the bills he can find upon the Banks of this place, and brings or sends them down— i and thus one of principles of Banking, to keep the notes of the Bank at as great a distance from home as possible, is violated and effectually ’ prostrated by the action of the Bank itself. This . policy, we think, is suicidal. The other practice of requiring weekly settle merits with each other is of no benefit to the com munity while it is a great detriment. We undcr . stand that where a balance is found against a Bank, it is required to pay up the specie or else a fourth of one per cent to bo let off. If such he the fact, the consequences of this practice must strike the mind of the most superficial observer. Ist. It keeps up a general scramble among the , Banks during the whole week, for each other’s I bills, in order to prepare for Monday morning’s trial. Sd. It prevents discounts for city business, be cause the Bank discounting, docs so with a strong impending probability that the notes which it pays out, will be returned upon it in less than a week, by some of its neighbors, and specie de manded fer it. 3rd. It'paralyses the Banks with smaller capitals, while it cripples those with larger ones. 4th. It enables any Bank which refuses to do a liberal accommodation business in the city to speculate upon those which arc disposed to do so. Thus—if Bank A discounts liberally, while Bank B refuses to do so, the bills of A, being collected in by B, may be returned upon it at the end of the week and the quarter of a per cent demanded— this done every week throughout the year, makes . twelve and a half per cent; a pretty fair business, without any risk and without any benefit to the community. slh. This practice makes it best for Banks to do business upon the paper of other Banks, and keep their own as much as possible within their own walls. 6th. But we shall slop the catalogue. It is a species of petty warfare, which to tho mind of the disinterested observer is indicative of unneccs sary suspicion of each other’s solvency. Settle ments among Banks are necessary to keep all in check and prevent over issues, but when they arc 1 repeated so often they lose their effect in the eyes of the community, and are not looked to as i evidences ol soundness, so much as if they were ! made quarterly. To this we might add tho practice of some of our Banks of sending large amounts of their funds to the north to speculate in the paper of ! Southern merchants. While these funds arc at tho north, the community here suffers, and besides this, if our Banks wilt send their money to the north, they should not object if Mr. Biddle sends 1 a portion of his to the south. We may be wrong in some of the positions wo have taken, as wo profess to know but little about ! Banking business. These arc our opinions how ever, and if in error should bo glad to be put , right, as nothing which has been said has been . ‘‘set down in malice.” 1 COMMUNICATED.

AAffi —, bis first season at the HAMPTON if . BmCOURSE, near Auguata, Go., under ppyitl* direction of Mr. Freeman W. ‘ | JT f r Lacv, and helot to Mares, the ensu es •=*»««» in* season, at One Hundred Dollars the season, payable 25th December next, with One Dollar to the Groom ; the season to commence the 15th February, and end the 15lh July next. It is re quested that persons sending mores, will send a note fur the season and a pedigree of the mare. John Bascombo never having covered, his powers as a foal-getter are, of course, unknown : such mares therefore, as do not prove in loal, shall have tbs benefit of another season, free of charge. Messrs. Glascock & Lacy arc extensively provided with Lots and Stables, fur marcs that may be sent to remain with tlio li rso, and will bo led nt filly cents pet d:iy. Mack servants, sent with marcs, led gratis.— |j\ory care and attention will bo taken to guard against accidents or escapes, hut no liability will be incurred foreither. A report having gained circula tion that John Bascombo would nut cover, I take this method to contradict it, so far as he has not re fused. PEDIGREE.—John Bascombo is a light chesnul fifteen and a half hands high,fine bone and muscle vyith very superior limbs and action, six years old the ensuing spring; he was got by the celebrated horse Bertrand, sen , his dam was got by Pacolet. and ho by imported Citizen; his grand dam by im ported Buzzard ; and his great grand dam by Wadt Hampton's Paragon, and he by imported Flimnap; his dam by Harwell's Traveller, his grand dam Ca millia, by old Fearnought ml of Calista, imported by Col. Bird ; Burwoll's Traveller was by Morton’s Traveller, out of Co), Bird’s Cdistn; Baseomhe’s great great grand dam by imported Figure, his great great grand dam was old Shamerkin, who was got by imported Wildair, out of the imported Cub Mare. Baseombe's performance on the Turf are of so re cent dale, and consequently so well known, I deem it unnecessary to trouble the public with any remarks of mine, in relation to them, except to state that ho has never lost a heat since he has been in my bawds „ , JOHN CROWELL.
