“I care net; I defy his police, and I would
tell him all I have said to his face; nnd 1 will
seek refuge in England, or he shall perish hy

I became more nnd more alarmed, and
was about to reply, when l!io Emperor saved
mo the trouble. He opened the floor, and (
presented himself to the astonished Princess. i
“'Jama!" bo exclaimed, “you shall not go.
to England, but to Glareulon ’’
“Ah! so yon have followed me," she said.
“Than you thought 1 really intended to throw ■

but it crown I must hive. Am 1 to bo

With thuse words, slie burst into a flood of
tears. Thu capricious beauty had changed
her imperious tone to one of supplication and
tender reproach. The Princes* Po ul mo was
certainly a most fascinating woman; but at
that moment she appeared to be more charm
ing than ever. I could not wonder ai the as-1
cendancy she gained over the Emperor. He j
was at first in a violent rtigu; but Ins linger |
was gradually soothed, and, when Pauline
stopped short in fior appeal to h m and burnt j
into the tears, be advanced to her and jaiJ at'-1
feniogntely:
“Mv dear sister, why are yon not satisfied! I
lam doing all I can lor yon, Kingdoms can

band is not a Frenchman.”
“Lat me hare a divorce, then.”
“Heaven forbid!”
“1 will be a Queen, or I will go to London.”
“You shall go to Vincennes.”
“I defy you! 1 will strangle myself as J

I know not what circumstance was recalled
to Napoleon’* mind by this threat; but. bis
brow lowered, Ins eyes fl wired, and lie bit Ins
lips til! he almost drew blood, and then in a |
voice faltering with emotion, he exclaimed:
“So much the better, madam! You will)

sedtlrat you are only to be ruled by u rod of

After the battle of Waterloo there were found

GEORGIA RAIL ROAD.
On .Saturday Evening last, all things Laving
been gotten in readiness, an Engine, called the
“Georgia,” was put upon the Rail Road for the
purpose of christening the Road, and testing ho r
capacity for travelling. The success was com
plclc. The most sanguine expectations were
realized. Never did an engine move bettor. About
live o’clock ,hc steam was ready—the engineer
was _^ C vety thing was ready—she starts —
“shq’n o ff” M id the old stockholder, whose
ncart beat high with anxiety—“she’s oil” cried
the crowd— “O whack” said Faddy-—“whoop-p*”
shouted tho doys, ‘‘site goes it,” and away she
wont, puifi.ng and blowing like tho young .hurri
cane of lire West; dashing along upon her iron
pathways with the speed of tho wild horse of the
desert, she soon disappeared from tho eyes of the
gazing multitude. In a few minutes she return
ed in the same stylo of magnificence in which
she departed and was greeted by the same ex
pressions of admiration and satisfaction. After
this, the engineer ran her several times backwards
and forwards for a mile or two out of tho city
fully testing her ability to perform the noble and
laudable services for which she was created.
Wc have no idea of puffing the establishment Up
on this occasion,as we expect to lake a ride in a few

Mr. Jones—ln looking over the statements of

few plain common sense reflections crossed my
mind, and in reconsidering them 1 think they
arc based in truth; they may not be general in
their application, but certainly they apply, closely
to very many—and times that have parsed has
amply proved tho fact.
it cannot cither serve the interests of the
Dank—(some of thorn at least) or tho individual
holders of stock to publish their names—lor I lie
community arc excellent hands to guess pretty
near how much a man is worth, and they do
not miss very far, generally. Now when we
hoar, and read, of Mr. So and So, —holding ids
one, two, or five hundred shares of stock in this,
that, and the other Bank, —the fust question is
where in tho world did ho gel the money to pay
in tile whole of his stock—when public estimate
on his means perhaps wonld not set him up for
half tlio amount—if all he possessed in the world
was sold. Now surely here is one of the base
ment stories in tho great house of difficulties; men
have run mad—with their fashionable slocks,
fancy stocks, —and other odious names which
never ought to apply to a correct, substantial float
ing medium for the good of this trading wotld.
In the good old days of Banking times, —the
surplus money of a substantial citizen formed the
stock upon which an issue was made—would to

of living and using their industry, for the pr. Bent
year, In this dilemma, planters whose crC” 12
have been from 100 to 700 bales, find themselves
forced to sacrifice many of their slaves in order
to get tho common necessaries of life for the sup
port of themselves and tho rest of their negroes.
In one instance, a small planter, whose hopes ran
high last winter, and who owned twenty-two
slaves, sold three of his best men, for which ho
had actually paid §3200, for §BSO, to buy pork
and corn tor the remainder. In many places,
heavy planters compel their slaves to fish for the
means of subsistence, rather than sell them at
such ruinous rates. There are at this moment
thousands of slaves in Mississippi, that know not
where their next morse is to come from. Tho
master must be ruined to save the wretches from
being starved.
Our Louisville correspondent writes that the
Bank of Kentucky has made an arrangement to
take at par tho notes of the Tlantcrs’ Dank of
Tennessee, payable at tho Bank ofLoutsiana. A
singular circumstance connected with this step
on the part of the Bank of Kintucky, will show
how apt men are to step beyond the rules of pro
priety in evil times. A merchant of high stand
ing bought up nearly §10,600 of the Tennessee
paper at a heavy discount, a day or two before
the declaration of the resolution by the Bank ol
Kentucky to take it at parr One of the firm to
which Ibis gentleman was attached, was a direc
tor in the said Bank, and so goon as the deter
mination was made known, tho sobers of the
Tennessee paper saw the object of the purchaser.
A great excitement prevailed,—so much so as to
call forth from the Bank Director a disclaimer
of any knowledge of the affair, and to produce a
prompt refunding of the Tennessee paper so pur
chased. When public opinion can thus put
down unfairness and treachery, it is in a whole
some slats. Wo hope the people of Louisville
will escape the ravages of the present storm.
They deserve an exemption.
The currency of the State in the worst possi
ble condition, We see the Banks refusing to
pay silver, and proposing to shave their own pa
per. A gentleman the other day at Natchez, hav
ing §3OOO of the Planters, Bank, demanded the
specie for the same. Itwas refused. United
States paper at 1 per cent, premium, or England
■ sovreign valued at _§s and current for §4 87,
! were offered. Thus is the honest dealer compelled
to use the predated rags oftbo Bank, or forced
* to pay anexorbitant premium for that which is
! convertable into par value. Wc do not know
i what this means but it savors very strongly of
f preying on tbe vitals of tho public at a moment
when the great csl distress prevails, caused too
by tho importer management of those very h*
solutions.
„ Wood used for steamboats along the river has
fallen to throe dollars per cord; but there will
1 shortly he no ] boats to purchase it at even the
t price. When the largest class bouts daily bring
i ing down from 50 to 100 tons offreight only, the
prospect is indeed gloomy.
Such arc some of tho principle items of news
1 from tho interior.
j From the N. V. Daily Express, April 27.
For three days past, the number of failures
have diminished astonishingly; indeed, only two
or three of minor importance have taken places.
There is a wonderful change in tho feelings of the
1 leading administration men,particularly thosejwho
, were most noisy and clamorous in gelling away
' j the deposits, and breaking down the United States
, j Bank. Many of these have fallen in the general
calamity, and become ruined by the very measures
\ I they so warmly advocated. Others are free to
! admit they were mistaken, and we believe not
’ one can be found who is an advocate of former
I measures.
From the New York American April 23.
The Meeting of cue Merchants last even
r ing at the Masonic Hall, was a remarkable one I
for the vast numbers assembled—the entire dc
’ corum of the proceedings,—and especially for!
• tho deep tho’ subdued and restrained excitement
1 which evidently pervaded the mighty mass. It
’ i was a spectacle that could not be looked upon
‘ | without emotion; that of many thousand men,
3 trembling as it were on the brink of ruin, owing
‘ Ito the measurer, as they verily believe, of their
4 own government, which should be their friend
\ instead of their oppressor—and yet meeting with
deliberation and calmness; listening to a tmrra
s live of their wrongs, and the causes thereof, adop
-1 iting such resolutions as were doomed judicious,
1 and then quietly separating to abide the result of
e their fir m but respectful remonstrances.
e From the AT. Y. Daily Express April 26.
e The meeting of Merchants last night was one
v ,of the largest meetings of any kind over held in
I'this city. The morn will contain about tour
- thousand persons; it was so crowded, that trot
. ha t the number that wi-htid tc ! c p>. ;it, could
even enter the pcitstl s—Tho Resolutions adop
ted, have given general satisfaction, they are firm,
dignified and to the point, clothed in such lan
guage as becomes us as a suffering community,
amt at the same lime such as tbe President ought
to hear. The Committee include sixty of our
most highly and respectable merchants, and
those whp it is hoped will repair to the scat of
Government. Would it not be well if the Mer
chans of Philadelphia and Baltimore would as- .
seuible at once, and appoint similar meetings,'
that Committees from those p aces might bo in
readiness to repair to Washington together, and
I lima lay hefjra the President the Commercial,
condition of the covintiy, and the femcd.es ne
cessary for an improvement. Therejarethree dis
tinct objects point a) out in the Resolutions.—.
Tbe first is, That the Treasury Otdv.r bo re
pealed.
Tire second, That Congress be convened.
And ihe tjiird. That sals on bands be suspen

Another large failure, —tho lion of the Colton
Monopolists —Burke, Watt & Co. Mr. Burke,
you may know, is President of the Union Bank
here. Rumor says he failed for 20 millions. It
can scarcely be so much, though the amount is
tremendous. Many smaller houses will fail in
consequence, both here and in Natchez.
If all the present crop of cotton here and in
the country were sold for 10 cents cash, it would
■ not pay Half the debt into which these specula
-1 tors have plunged themselves and the people.
t Produce of all kinds is falling rapidly. For

to give up the Pork if the money was refunded.

Nothing else of moment to communicate, except
that the hanks are offering and paying 2 j per

I sell it to the same Bank for the premium. Largo

f MONEY MARKET,
I TiiuasuAT, April 27.
. Tho small patch of sunshine produced by the
i nows from England is succeeded by the same
; gloom and despondency which have pervaded
i every avenue of business for the last two months.
United States Bank stock, and almost every other
n the list, fell back to their old rates,fand some
0 j ,‘hera lower than ever. We have had a large
pubh xneeting on the present distress, but its ef
fects ot.’ t * lc state ot tlle mone y market would ap
pear to ac.' g' oom to despondency, and despon
dency to gk’'* ln-
A groat mao7 ol ’J cctl °n3 are raised to the Com
mitted formed at Masonic Hall. Instead of be
ing composed enth.e.’y a particular description
or class of traders, if is asketl ' vh f mechanics
were not mixed with it. 1 " “"'h.V they should have
been deprived of an oppL' l ’ ,ul J , * , y Lying their
grievances at the footstool id power! Be that
as it may, there is no help for • 4 JIOW - What is
done cannot be undone. Today,”' B'o great mass
of the committee will proceed to Washington.
What will they do! what can they ' d°! The
present terrible reaction will have its w. 1 y-
It would really appear as if nothing cof'-d sta y
its progress. No now failures were annou. ”' cet '
yesterday, but fears are entertained that we sh. '“
only have a pause for a short time. All the ef
fects of tho banks and the state government have
been directed to the resuscitation of tiro foreign
exchange, but our domestic exchanges are in a
more dilapidated condition than they were ever
known in the history of this country. Many
houses have failed purely from the derangement
of the internal exchanges. Wo have heard of
solvent firms that had funds at their credit in
southern banks, and yet, for want of a domestic
exchange-system, they could neither draw nor
get remittances, so as to meet their engagements
here. Even bank cheeks from some of the oldest
batiks in the south have been protested for want
of funds, or means to send funds to this quarter.
No commercial country was ever in such a
state of derangement as ours is at this moment
in the internal exchanges. What can the Exe
cutive do ! What can the Merchants’ Commit
tee demand! If tho Specie Circular should bo
revoked, that will not re-organise our domestic
exchanges, or re-establish any system to carry
on what commerce may yet exist beyond the
mildew ot failure. Nothing short of u meeting
of Congress should be the demand of tho mer
chants. And when they do meet, that body
ought immediately to create a new system of do
mestic exchanges. Thodeposito bank system is
a signal and a deplorable failure. There must
be some general system created to transmit funds
safely and speedily Irom one quarter of tbe court
■ try to tbe other, or tho remaining commerce of
tho nation will bo in jeopardy.
To organise a new national bank might be
beyond the present ability of the country, in the
present depressed condition of credit and confi
dence. We have banks enough. We only
want a consolidation—an organization of tho
banks already in existence. If the President and
Congress will not recharler tho Pennsylvania
, United States Bank, why not consolidate a num
ber of state banks now in operation at various
points of the country, and give them a new and
fresh existence by a charter from Congress ! In
the large commercial cities throughout the Un
ion, we have state banks enough that would un
ite at once,and take a,ncw charter from Congress,
i In this mode, a system of internal exchanges—a
. new national bank might he created in a week;
■ if Congress were at Washington, and would act.
i The credit and lands of the government, of
fered to such u consolidated confederacy, would
; b ■ a sufficient inducement for them to accept of a
I new charter.
i Unless some such measure bo carried into
i cllcct as spccdly as possible, the whole commerce
, of this country, banking system and all, will most
■ probably go by the board before tbe Ist of July or
August. The measure we describe, may be
perfected and carried into effort in a month. Un
less it be done, well may wc tremble through t! |C
whole months of May and June to receive tl»o
j news from England. Wc do not believe ' s
' j possible for the Ametican houses in Eng!* 1 " 1 ! to
sustain themselves by the aid of tho bank at Bng
■ land, unles our government also act cotemporane
ously for tho recognizalion of affairs in this coun
-1 try. Tho extraordinary fall in tl )0 price of
1 American exports would almost, of itself, form
> an item sufficient to sweep them t° nothingness.
It is, therefore, probably that il lC mcn " ho, for
' years havo been the managers ofjßtr foreign trade,
1 both in the United Stales and England, will be
‘ destroyed for ever. But if, Etc foreign trade
should go by the board, ca» wu llot save our do
mestic and coasting trade! *' are on the brink !
‘ of new dangers—wo are in the jaws ot a fresh
panic in tire middling lower ranks of busi

REMARKS.
Cotton.— The quiet state of our market, w hich
we reported in our last, still continues, and although
holders have been somewhat revived by the last ac
counts from Liverpool, no sales of consequence have
been made, and the arrivals from the country arc
now getting very light. Planters prefer holding at
home until same decisive change takes place.
Groceries —Continue without change.
Stocks —No sales made since our last report.
Exchange— Not to be had from any of our Banks.
Freights— Still continue at old rates.
REVIEW OF THE NEW-VORK MARKET, APRIL 26.3
Coffee. —The business in this article continues
quite unimportant. The sales include 1 a 200 bags
Laguira 11; 50 do Brazd, besides small parcels of
the various other descriptions at previous prices.
Cotton. —Our market continues to present the
same unfavorable appearance noticed in many pre
ceding publications : the sales have included 400
bales Florida at 81 a 131 ; and 100 Mobile 10 a 13
cents. We continue to reduce our quotations.
Flour and Meal.— The Flour market continues
quite inactive, though since our last no important
changes have occurred in price. Richmond Coun
try lias disappeared from the market and the stock
■ of Southern descriptions generally has become ma
terially reduced. VVequote Western Canal,s97sa
$lO ; sales in small quantities of New York City at
87 25 a SB, according to quality ; Georgetown and
Howard street $lO ; and Baltimore City Mills, $7
25. Rye Flour sells at $5 a $5,50 ; and Corn Meal
in barrels, $4,25 a $4,50, ihe firmer price with cash.
Provisions—The derrtand for Beef and Pork
continues very limited, the sales being still confined
to the supplying Os ship stores and’eity consumption.
Beef continues firm, while Pork, owing to a contin
uance oi heavy supplies, has farther declined in val
* vve now quote Moss, $lB a sl9, and Prime,
tfl.i a 013. i-ard continues dull, though without
iQlther variation in price Hams being dull and
plenty, have declined to 10 a 11 cents. Sales of
bacon, sides, at
Smoked Beef Hi al2 cents. The latter article re
mains scarce. Butter continues excefedinly dull,
and we farther reduce our quotations.
Spirits. — The market lor all descriptions contin
ues without much activity, the sales ns lor some
time previously being confined to small parcels as
a I present required: sales half pipes &1 25; sales
also of Now Orleans Rum at 50 a55 cents Other
domestic descriptions also remain without variation
in price.
