Emm tbo New Orleans I!r». MEXICAN ACCOUNT OF THE CAPTURE OFTHEGENERALURREA. The following account ot the capture of the Gen. Urrea uv ihe U. S. sloop ol war Natchez, Commander Marvins, has been communicated to ns by a Mexican officer, an eye witness to the whole affair, who has just nrr.ved from Pensacola with despatches to the Mexican Consul in this city, lie informs us ttint on the faith of this'statement. Commodore Dal las has released the General Urrea. Prepar ing our rentiers to make the allow an which naturally will suggest themselves in perusing these details, we have comp) cd with the au thor’s wish to g;ve them publicity, bel eying that they tend, by a comparison wiili ihu statement which Captain Mcrv.no may deem it his duty to make, to the formation ut an accurate opinion upon the subject. It is to b« hoped that the mildness evinced by Com modorc Dallas in trotting the late outrage,and the known moderation and wisdom of linsu mente, may lead to a pacilic terminal on o' (he existing difficult:*;*. Circumstances al/nuling the affair hrhretn the .Mexican brig of war General I 'rrea and the V. S. tlwipof tear Piulchez, at aa hnr off'lhe lirassus St Jago. The Mexican squadron, competed r.f the brigs Libertador, \ encoder, Gen. Toran and Gen. Urrea, met with and com mealed on the Ist of April in 1at.3018, and long. 88 13- 0, in the meridian of Cadiz, with the schr Champion from New Orleans, bound for Mat agorda, loaded with arms provisions and other merchandise. The commanders of nil of said vessels being called on board of the Libcrla dor, held a council which lasted from 8 o'- clock in the evening until midnight; ihe treaty with the two nations was examined, and after deliberation it was resolved that the schooner be sent to the Metamoras ; that she he deliver ed up to the Captain, and that the cargo be detained until the government decided wheth er it be confiscated or not. Os the 12 passen gers 0 were pot on board of the General Ur rea, and the balance remained in the schoon er with the captain ami his crew. On the 2d at 8 o'clock in the morningo soldiers and 8 seamen were sent from the Libertador with rations, and exp re-a orders were given by the commander ot the squadron to the officer commanding the prize not to touch any thing belonging to the schooner; so ns to avoid any - claims that might lieroafter ho made, an order which was Innhlully obeyed. At 10 o’clock Capt. Davis bad the hatchways sealed, and ■I oo'clock P. M. the schooner got under way escorted by the Urroa. On the sth she anchored off the Dir at the Brasses de St Ja go, being unable to gel over it, and remained thereuntil the 7lh,when sho crossed it. On t lie same day, the Louisiana came to the same anchorage bound for Matagorda, Texas, from New Orleans, having been taken by the squadron, and under Ihu conveyance of an of. liter. Bhc was also unable to cross the liar by reason of the violence ol the wave*. On the Bih the Corvetto Natchez appear ed Thu Urrea hoisted her Hag, and ordered the Champion to hoist hors (the American.) The Corvette approached towards the anchor age, and sent a boat to the Urrea with some letters from the Commandant of Marine at Vera Cruz to the address of the Commander of the Sqadron. As soon as the boat return ed she was sent back to the Louisiana; and immediately afterwards the Natchez anchor ed near the canons of the Urrea, with norl bole* open and lighted matches, prepared to lire. Shortly after this, an order was sent for the Captain of the Louisiana, and the with drawal of the seamen and soldiers on board of that vessel, staling that men would bo soot from the Natchez. The commander of the Uirea thereupon sett' an officer on board of the Corvette, rep resenting that he was not the capturcr of the schooner, and could not depan from the or ders he had received from ihu commander ot the squadron, and that he was responsible for all the hostile acts that he might commit against that vessel. The commander of the Corvette answered by requesting that the clearance of the vessel might be shown him . and was told ; that on the day ufiicr arrival it was sent to General Bravo ; but that ho could either directly or thro’ the medium of his Consul obtain what ho asked fur. Dur ing this interval the long boat, belonging to the Corvette, transported Ihe officers soldiers mid seamen on hoard of Iho Urroa, and placed in their stead seamen belonging to the Nat -4 * 111, V*.. Ibuu; 5 o'clock in the evening tho Cor vette got under way with the Louisiana in low directing her course N. K. On tho 10th at 11 o’clock in the morning she moored her •elf within half a gun shot of tho Urrea, and immediately sent u boat ashore, which slop ped on its way and landed an officer on board ■<»f ilte Urroa charged with forbidding the ■Commander oftbal vessel to make sail, under the penally of being fired into. Tho Com mander ot' the Urrea astonished nt such a proceeding on tltb purl of a friendly nation ■did not know what to think, but informed the Captain of the Port of Brasses St. dago ot tho circumstances in writing. At 5 o’clock in the evening, the boat returned with the secretary of the American Consul and an es cort. These gentlemen were compelled to remain on the Corvette 4 days, by reason of the bad weather. On tbo 15th they went on shore, and on the same day the Commander of the Corvette passed a communication to the Captain of the Port ami informed hint that although the schooners Champion and Lou isiana had been illegally captured, they had been piratically captured; and that if free communication were not allowed him on board of the Champion, lying inside of the Brassos St. Jago, he would make the brig General Urrea responsible, which was imme diately under the lire of Ins guns. The same boat widen carried this message stopped on her way to the shore, and signified to the commander of the Urrea that he must not hoist sail, and that if he did he should he fired upon. The Captain of the port replied that he had ciders from General Bravo not to per mit any communication with the Champion, but the commander of the Natchez, could ve ry easily, having a Consul at Matarooras rep resenting his nation, obtain what he asked for—and that as for the intention to make tho General Urrea responsible, ho should be aware of the responsibilities bo incurred by insulting the flag ol a vessel of war belonging to a friendly power. That besides, this, there were three vessels ready to sail for Now Or leans ; and t mt the delay occasioned to them "by his caprice would cause great prejudice to the interests of the merchants trading between that place and Metamoras. On the 10 the Urrea pul up her sails to dry ; at half past eight o’clock, the Natch'z sent a boat to in form her that if sho attempted to go to sea, she would bo sunk ; the Urrea informed the Captain of the port of this message; and al Hr two o’clock P. M. the same officer who had been on board in the morning, sig nifel, to the Commander of the Urrea to lower Ins flag and pendant, or he would be fired upon. The esmmandor of the Urrea replied, that until he was fired upon he would not pull down his flag. The answer was no sooner conveyed back to the Commander of t ie Natchez than a bn let fire was opened up on the Urri a. The Urrea with 4 piece* of 8 and a po inder ot] 12, to ng uuafL to contend ■gainst 12, 24 pieces, and a heavy firing from the docks with grape ahot, lowered her flag. It was only when tho American flag was seen floatin'*' over the Urrea that the fort and the ■chr. Bravo opened a fire, but the distance was so great, that none of the bullets struck the Corvette. The Commander of the CorJ vette wishing to land the crow of the Urrea, it was thought ashore that he intended to make an attack on the coats, and the lire from he fort was directed towards the 4 boats transporting them, when a ball etrack an American schooner Which was moored irnme ■ diately in the direction of the embarcanons e The crew ol the Urrea returned onboard of 7 her and the Natchez made sail.

A largo snil highly respectable meeting of the | citizens of this place, was held this morning at tt ' o’clock, at the Masonic Hall, In pursuance of the , rsll made in yesterday evening’s paper —Wm. W. Holt in the Chair, and Wm. T. Gould and ) Jno. Kerr, Secretaries. Mr. Hale offered a pre • amide and several resolutions, which from their length, are excluded from to-day’s paper. The , preamble recited lha unprecedented slate of af fairs in the roin mercial world—the suspension of ( specie payments by the Banks in alt the com" i mercial cities of the Union, and urged with . great force tho necessity of a similar course on the part o( the Banks in this city. The Resolutions request the Bunks of this ] city I" suspend specie payments and pledge tho co-operation of the citizens to sustain them by receiving I Indr lolls at par in payment of debts, . and fur ordinary business transactions. A reso r lotion was also passed requesting the Governor • to call an extra session of the I,egislalure to take into consideration, tho condition of the currency f of Ihe Country. r oO’ An important error occurred in the ad vciliscment of the Bank of Auguste in jester , day’s paper, in staling that the owners of slock, . prior to the sale in January last, would receive a - distribution of three dollars and thirty-two cants ■ per share. It should have been three dollars and ninety- two cents. 1 There is hut little doubt that the Banks in Charleston have suspended specie payments.— r On Tuesday last s public meeting was held, nt j which n Committee was appointed to report upon r the propriety of suspending, to on ndjnarned meet s ing to he held yesterday. Another Committee I was appointed to call on the Banks and request (hem to suspend (forthwith, until the result of yesterday’s meeting should he known—the re quest was immediately complied wiih, - On Friday evening last, on the receipt of the news of the suspension of the New York Banks, a meeting was held in Boston, at which upwards of forty Banks of that city, Salem, Charlestown, Cambridge, Boxbury, Lowell and Concord, were represented. It was unanimously resolved to suspend specie payments. All tho Boston Banks except three were represented. AMERICAN TURF REGISTER. Tho May No. of this handsome and popular work, in addition to much interesting reading matter, contains a beautiful, accurate, and highly riniahed engraving of our famous Georgia horse, Job* Bxscombz, accompanied by a memoir of him; which cannot fail to rendar it attractive to the amateurs of the Turf, particularly In Georgia, atbl Hid South. It will he seen by the following article from tho Balt. American, that the Government has ordered Ihe Collector of the Customs ot that City, to receive nothing but specie mid the bills of spe cie paying Banks, in payment of Custom House Bonds. The evening papers slate that the Collector of this Port has received a Treasury Circular requir ing the payment of money accruing on Bonds and Customs, to bo made in Specie, and tiro Notes of specie payment banks, that are at par, at the Custom llouae. We learn Hint on Saturday, the notes of the . Deposite Bank, where one or more Bonds were ’ due, were refused in payment of those Bonds, and tho merchants being without the gold or sil , ver required by the Circular, were compelled to let them go unpaid. [most ova connEspoxnujcr.] BALTIMORE. May 13th, 1837. I presume that before (his reaches you, the ex ample which was first set in New York of a sus pension of specie payments by the Bunks, and which lead to a suspension by tho banks in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, and various other places, will have been followed by tho banking institutions in the South. This pro ceeding Ims given comparative ease and tranquil ity to the public mind. Tbo torturing anxiety which pervaded the community has been remov ed ; and the effect pf tho measure is only fell for good. Tho grout inconvenience resulting from it is tho want of small change; but this will be promptly remedied, by tho issuance of notes for small sums, on undoubted security. The two banks in Washington, which have tho benefit of the Government doposilcs, contin ued yesterday to meet all demands against them in specie. The experimenters covered with con fusion as they must be at the results of their tin kering with the currency, arc resolved to main tain one of these —the I’d —the Bunk of the Metropolis, nt nil hazards. Tins evening SliiO,- 000, in specie passed through this city, for the vaults of the Bank of the Metropolis— all of which . bad been obtained from the mint at Philadelphia, i Your readers may well ask what right the faction ' at Washington have to use tho specie of the poo. I pic to sustain this pampered little pet bank un der the eaves of tho Treasury 1 No right nt all. But thus they quibble. The Bank of the Metro i polia (so long as it is sustained by the Govern ment wnly I) is a specie-paying bank. Tbo Gov- I eminent may therefore lake its notes in exchange , for specie—it does take its notes—pile them up— . and then with this enormous accession to their ■ own specie basis tho President and Directors I come out and boast they can pay every demand ’ against them in specie I Was there any thing I ever more contemptible 1 , It is a remarkable illustration of the Ignorance i of (he wiseacres who arc in places of power and ' boast around the White House, that up to the 1 last moment (hey had not tho least idea that tho depositories of the public money—the instruments that were to have been of the better currency— I would stop payment in specie. On tho very day ’ when the New York p«ls all suspended, the Globe hooted at tho proposition! General Jack , s m’s chosen stale banks were tie first to yield. In truth tbo Government itself was seven days in advance of (ho banks in its inability to meet its 1 engagements hy tho payment of coin. In the (■egimiiug of this month, the Treasury drafts on | the deposit Banks at Natchez, Miaa., for a large I sum in si>ecie were refused payment and protest i ed ! The Government baa checked several times . since fur specie on the Deposit Banks of Now i York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, and in every I case the agents of the “Belter Currency” have ’ positively refused to meet the demand. But ■ while the Government itself is thus bankrupt, | and cannot pay in specie, it has the modesty to demand specie in payment ot debts to itself. The l I Secretary of the Treasury has issued a Circular requiring payment of moneys accruing on bonds and customs to be made in specie, ot the note* of specie-paying hanks. Tke Postmaster General f has forbidden bis deputies to receive any thing but specie in payment of poclagc. The i rcaau ry Circular is still in force requiring apecie in payment of public lauds—and ail this, while the Government checks cannot be turned into specie at any ofita depositories. Even the French In demni y, which was brought home in gold, can only be got in pajier, The Government charger! the claimants five per cent premium for the honor : of getting gold. But when the claimants applied * to Hie Bank of America in New York, for the in stalment then due, and demanded payment in j specie, they were refused ! So much for the glory of this grand achievement, which was so r loudly boasted of by Hie parly. ( “The Experiment,” is working well now for the causa of Hie Whigs. The Jackson-mcn arc rapidly leaving tho Van Burcn tanks. Allis . quiet in Baltimore, and people are looking with | confidence fur a better state of things.

Whereas, at a meeting of the Republicans of Georgia, held at Milledgcville, in December last it was recommended that a Convention of Dele gates should be cltescn to meet on this day, and at this plac, to consider. Ist. What measures can be adopted by the Convention calculated to advance the principles of the Republicans of Georgia, and to evince their united action in aupporl of (bote principle!. 2d. In wU«t nioJe the sense of such Convcn tion could be most efficiently ascertained, in the •election of • citizen to be presented as the candi date of the Republican Party of Georgia, at the ; next election of a Govenor of this Slate. And [ whereas in the opinion of this Convention, the united action of the Republicans of thia Hlatc, cannot fail to he secured if the measures of this body shall be marked by prudence and discretion; by harmony among ourselves, and by that spirit of conciliation to others, which should characterize our deliberations at thia interesting crisis. And whereas, ibis Convention does also believe, that a decided majority of the people of Georgia are disposed to rally round those sacred principles for which Georgia in all her political departments basso long and so zealously contended; which have heretofore constituted the creed of her most distinguished statesmen; which undet the author ity of the patriot Troup sheilded us from the in fatuated measures of the younger Adams; and which alone can enable us successfully to resht the still more alarming corruptions of the Federal Government, at the present day. That the stan dard of Republicanism raised by this Convention, will call to the rescue the patiiots of Georgia, in vindication of the just rights of the State, and in the enforcement of purity in the administration of the Federal Government, as alike conducive, and alikej indispensable to the perpetuation in its constitutional spirit, of our Federal Union— Theieforc. Resolved, That the Republican Party of Geor gia, will enter upon this renewed struggle for the preservation of the great principles herein before ind icated, Resolved, That it will be advisable to organ ize a general superintending committee of the Re publican Party of Georgia, and committees in the several counties of the State, for the purpose of concert, and co-operation. Iletolved, That the sense of thia Convention in the selection of a citizen, to lie presented as the Candidate of the Republican Party of Geor gia, at the next election for a Governor of this State, can be most effectively ascertained by bal lot, and that this Convention will immediately proceed to perform that duty. Iletolved, That the citizen who shall have a majority of the ballots of this Convention in his favor, shall be nominated by this body as the can didate for Governor, of the Republican Parly of Georgia, and that, yielding all personaf predilec tions to the ascertained sense of the majority, each member of this Convention will zealously exert himself in the use of all proper and honor able means to ad vance the election of the person so nominated. Mr. Cooper of Hall, offered the following res olution as a substitute ; which was adopted. Iletolved, That this Convention do now pro ceed by ballot, to the nomination of a candidate suitable to receive the suffrages of the people of Georgia, at the approaching election for Govern or of this Stale. Mr. Hairispf Newton, offered the following additional resolution ; which was adopted. Iletolved, That a majority of the votes given shall ho requisite to constitute a nomination.

The Buffalo Banks.—lt appeals from the Buffalo papers, that tho injunction issued against tho banks in that city excites great indignation. “To satisfy all,’’{says even the “Slat’’ of that place, Regency as it is, ' “that the banks arc sol vent, wo learn that tho injunction was served by the messenger of the eastern banks, who drew from the hunks, in specie, the full amount due to eastern hanks, and then served the injunction. We have yet to learn tho propriety of commission ing a messenger, first <o draw out tho amount due to some favoured section of the state, and then close tho banks against all others. We know not how this is looked upon by others’, but with ns it appears to bo an indignity no'; to be borne in silence.” Wealth oe the Potomac.— At a haul of tho spacious Seine at tho Indian Head Landing the other day, fished by Geo, II Smoot, Esq. upwards of seven hundred thousand Herring were taken, besides a largo number of Shad, Sturgeon, Rock, Perch, and c>;ory description of fish which finds a home in this highway of the finny race. cofniK »e c: ia ii.

HULL’S UTERO ABDOMINAL SUPPORTER is off red to those afflicted with Pfotapsus Uteri, and other diseases depending upon relaxation of the abdominal muscles, as an instru ment in evety way calculated for relief and perma nent restoration to health. When this instrument is carefully and properly htted to the form of the pa tient it invariably affords the most immediate immu nity from the distressing “dragging and bearing down” sensations which accompany nearly all ea ses of Visceral displacements of tho abdomen, and its skilful application is alw'ays followed by an ear ly confession of radical relief from the patient her self. The Supporter is of simple construction and can be applied by the patient without further aid. Within tho last two years 700 of the Utero Abdomi nal Supporters have been applied with the most hap py results. The very great success which this Instrument has met warrants the assertion, that its examination by ’ the Physician will induce him to discard the dis gusting pessary hitherto in use. It is gratifying to state, that it has met the decided approbation of eve i ry raeraberofthe Medical Faculty who has applied . it, ns well as every patient who has worn it. The Subscriber having been appointed agent for the sale of the above Instruments, all orders address ed to him will be promptly attended to. N.B.

It is re quested that persons sending mores, wti! sen d a note for the season and a pedigree of the mare. John Bascombe never having covered, his powers as a foal-gettor are, of course, unknown ; such mares therefore, as do not prove in tool, shall have the benefit of another season, free of charge. Messrs. Glascock & Lacy arc extensively provided with Lots and Stables, for mores that may be sent to remain with the herse, and will be fed at fifty cents pet day. Black servants, sent with mares, fed gratis.— Every care and attention will be taken to guard against accidents or escapes, but no liability w ill be incurred fur either. A report having gained circula tion that John Bascombe would not cover, X lake this method to contradict it, so far as he has not re (used. PEDIGREE.—John Bascombe is a light chesnnl fifteen and a half hands high,fine bone and muscle, with very superior limbs and action, six years old the ensuing spring ; he was got by the celebrated horse Bertrand, sen., bis dam was got by Pacolet. and he by imported Citizen; bis grand dam by im ported Buzzard ; and bis great grand dam by Wadt Hampton’s Paragon, and lie by imported Fliranapj his dam by Harwell's Traveller, his grand dam Ca millia, by old Fearnought out of Calista, imported 1 by Col. Bird ; Burnell's Traveller was by Morton's Traveller, out of Col. Bird’s Ctlista; Bascorabe’s great great grand dam by imported Figure, his great great grand dam was old Sharaerkin, who was got by imported Wildair, out of the imported Cub Mare. Bascombe’s performance on the Turf are of so re cent date, and consequently so well known, I deem it unnecessary to trouble the public with any remarks of mine, in relation to them, except to stale that lie has never lost a heat since he has been in my hands.
