'•' • 1 ■ - From the Charltrlnn Mercury. The Southern men of Ihe present genera- > lion if imp to themselves —to patriotism and to their posterity, will attend to the subjoin- 1 ed strong appeal, and act upon it promptly. It exhort a them to assume their moral armour ' nt a crisis when the warning signs ofn deadly v assault upon the very existence of the South- a ern States, thicken in every point of the hor- ' jzon j when indeed the war has already coin- -' induced, and when so far ns the periodical 1 press is concerned, allies of our worst cue- 1 lilies, are to a great degree sustained hy the 1 suicidal blindness or the traitorous weakness 1 of the Southern men. ' That the Southern Review as revived, will 1 to a great extent take the place among our f Litertfy classes of works, whether American ' or Foreign, of a hostile or at host a suspi ciously neutral character, we have reason to believe,must result from tho attractions w hich > the taste and ability of its Editor will secure ‘ for it; and that it will be a frank and hold 1 exponent of Southern sentiment, and a strong 1 defender of our rights, none who know the 1 character of Judge Upsiicu can doubt for a moment. Those who have not known that distinguished Virginian, arc assured that the ■writer who vouches for him in the following ■communication, is, as a statesman, a citizen, and a patriot, one whose name h.is command ed and will always command the highest con fidence of South Carolinians. To TUB CITIZ.ENS OK TIIK SI.AVR-llOt.il i.No States.— One who has not been an in. attentive observer of the course of events, and who has never hern indifferent to what con. cents your intcrcts, or safety, would call your attention to the Prospectus to revive the Southern Review hy Judge Upsur of Virgin it. Tho great and leading object of the work as set forth in the Prospectus, is the defence of the peculiar institutions of the slavcholding Stales. That they are in dan ger it would be folly to disguise. A parly lias risen w ithin the ether States, in the last three years, whose object, regardless of all constitutional and social obligations, is the overthrow of the relation of Master and Slave which ha* existed from tho first settlement ■of the slave-holding Stales, between the Eu ropean snd African races, and which has hloii. ded itself with all our institutions political and social.—This paity is regularly organi sed, and has hundreds of societies extending over the whole of the non-slave-holding States with an annual income of thousands, putting in motion a powerful and widely extended .press, And rending forth a numerous hurt of emmisaario* to preach and spread their hos. tile doctrines in every direction, To give greater cflect to what they nay, or do, they iivow their determination to throw their po littcal weight on the side of tho party in those -Elates, who shall ho most favorable to them, and have already become so powerful in some •o. them, that tlioirsupport is courted by both the political parlies, ihnl divide tho North. 1 As numerous as they already ore, they arc still increasing and will continue to increase from present appearances, till the object they have in view is consummated, unless some ■efficient measure bo adopted to arrest their ■further progress. To those, who have red ’clod on the pecu liar COlldilfon of the slave-holding ,States, it would he on idle waste of lime to undertake to show, that tho accomplishment of the object of the parly would he our d direction, as a .people. The separation of tho two races, were it even desirable, is impossible. Tins the abolitionists themselves acknowledge. It is equally impossible, that they should exist together under any other relation, than tho ( tcxisimg one under which, both have grown , tip and prospered. Its subversion would bo 1 the destruction of one. oriiotb. He who dees ] •not see tins is profoundly ignorant of our con dition. The present relation then between She two races must be preserved ;>• nil events tcosl what it will. In its preservation 'mr all is involved; property, liberty, life, and char actor. Among the first ami most efficient mefUttr ica tor ibis purpose is the one, io winch yum -1 attention is now invited. The war, which is waged against ns, is one of opinion. The .assault is mainly through thc'presft, & through (the same medium it must ho met ami repelled Our assailant* hope to over throw the exist ing relation between the two races in the slave-holding Stales hy denunciation. They hold it up, as immoral, sinful am! opposed to the rights of m in. Wo must meet and lepol their attacks, and expose their errors, fana ticism and hypocrisy. For this purpose, a well conducted Review is the most powerful instrument, that can bo conceived. Such a one we now fortunately have the opportuni ty of establishing, under the editorship ofn citizen, who justly ranks among the most tal ented and competent m the Union, and who, in proposing to undertake this great charge, is'ac tmilcd hy the highest and noblest feelings of jiatroliiiiu. The work will be one ufgruat la bor ami expense, and will require, according to the prospectus, at least 31100 subscribers to jusiily the undertaking.—To give it full of. feet, at least twice that number ought to be obtained. Thu most talented of tho country and tho age must bo enlisted, as contributors, which conuol be done with less than 5000 or 6000 subscribers. A work, such as it should bo, requires tho co-operation of a great varic- , ty of talents of the highest order, and wo . ought not to stop short ol placing it in the front rank of the periodicals of the day, belli « for the extent and excellence of its matter, so ; as to ensure it a general circulation nt home 1 ami abroad. To died this, all that is want- t ing is sufficient patronage, and that some clli cieat plan may bo adopted to obtain patron age, is tho object ot calling your attention to 1 the sulijcctat this time. t If you would permit mo to suggest a plan i 1 would recommend that every editor in the L slave-holding Stales without distiiic ion of parly (for it equally concerns us all) shall 1 give a standing place in the columns ofiiis * paper to Judge Upshur’s prospectus, ami 1 shall open a subscription in his office for tho „ work and shall from tune to lime call the at tention of the public to the importance of ex tending an official patronage to it. * I would in the next place suggest that a > subscription be opened in the Clerk’s office in < every county throughout the slave-holding , States, and one be placed in the bauds of every Sheriff' willing to lake charge of it. It there 1 be no printed subscription, one in manuscript ! can easily bo prepared. Tlio subscription i is $5 annually. To carry this suggestion ( into effect will require some one individual in each county to" step forward mid take charge ( of its execution; and surely there is not a ' county .where there is not some public ' spirited individual, who feels a sufficient in- 1 tcre.-t in the defence ot our institutions to < assume tho discharge of so light a duty for j so important an object. I would nex't suggest that}the anniversary ■of our independence and other public occa- 1 eions be embraced to recommend the work to * the patronage of the public and to obtain li subscriptions. c And finally, I would suggest, the impor- 3 tance of returning all the subscriptions to Wm. VV. Moore &• Co. (the printers) at " Washington, by tho Ist of October next, in 11 order that it may bo ascertained, as soon as c ' possible, if the requisite number of subscribers b has been obtained, taking care to pay the pos- u tage and to keep a copy to supply the origin •l list, should it miscarry or be tost. Citizens of the slave-holding States, it is lime to arouse from your slumber, Vou arc 11 assailed in tho most vulnerable point. Vour a existence, as a people; depends upon main- S laiuin* the supremacy oft he European over ,| the African race. You have reached the cri «is of your fate, if your institutions assailed ' ■ * with such violence end industry, arc ever to he defended, no time is to be lost. Delay in all cases dangerous, would bo fatal in this. Deceive not yourselves. The blow is at your life, prosperity, mid character, and if you should nut repel it, disasters, greater Ilian ever before betel a people, bnrbarpn* or civili zed, await you. The immediate object of the abolitionists is to divest you of your property | which cannot be effected without imolviug your safely and existence, while the means by which it is attempted, would blast your reputation and character. The attempt is to degrade yoa in your own estimation, and ren dcryou odious and hateful in tho eyes of the world, and if by such means they should ef fect their object, it at once would sweep away our prosperity, lives and character, leaving nothing behind, beta name to be execrated forever. Such is the catastrophe against which yon are now called on to prepare ; great as is the danger the means of resistance is still greater if called forth in lime and with vigor, to the magnitude of the crisis. Our cause is good, a circumstance of the highest importance in a war of opinion. Inevciy view, religous, mor al and political, it can he fully and triumphant, ly vindicated, and that whcUicrjbrought to the test ofexperience, or abstract principles. Its defence will be tho great duty ot the Review, which, under the guidance oi its able, enligh tened and patriotic editor, no doubt would lie ably and successfully performed ; all that is wanted is a support ami patronage proportion ed to the magnitude oftheobjee', ami this de pends on yourselves, who have so much at slake. Withhold them not, on account ol the hardness of the times. The pressure is in deed, great and ninny may be prostrated, whore indusliy end enterprise deserved a be', ter fate, yet with all its ills, it must, from its nature, prove temporary, ilottcr limes will again return, wh.n our lossea may ha repai (, and ’present distress be forgotten in renewed prosperity. Nut so tho danger to which I would direct your attention. From that blow there could bn no recovery. Eternal desolation would follow in its train. In the tttidsl of your present great, hut temporary difficulties, close not your eyes against the greater approach ing danger. The opportunity, which you now have of taking an efficient step to vindi cate your institutions, may not again bo pre sented, or if presented, may ho too late. It is not every (lay one sowcll qualified, every way to undertake such a task, can he found. Let this State set the example of a l.ihcrnl subscription to the other slave holding Sla’ea. Wo ought, with proper exertions, to furnish one lialf olTho number required to commence the work. Such an example would not fail to have a happy effect on the oilier States, ami secure a patronage, which would place the work on the most solid basis. Let nn one then who can possibly spare $5, withhold his name from tho subscription list. It will re turn tenfold in the pleasure and intelligence it. Will give, independent nfall political consid erations. Among its other advantages, the work would be tho commencement of South ern literature, which is indispensable to our safety ami reputation us a people. AMICUS.

Wo call the attention of our citizens to tho or dinance of tho Common Council of tho city, which has been for some lime published in our paper, on the subject of keeping their lots clean and in good condition, to prevent sickness. It would bo well for those who have lots requiring their attention, to look to it, as we understand the Council intend to enforce it rigorously. The Alexandria Cazotle, of a date some weeks nasi, a paper of groat impartiality in politics, thus 'at,ms up the causes of tho present distress— “ The removal ol the Deposilcs—the war upon the Jltti’U of the U. S. the destruction of that Punk jho unregulated condition of tho currency consequent i.Hreon—the springing up of hun dreds of now ha’>k» all over the country —the vast issue ot paper .Honey—the speculations in tiro public lands follows.***!—Jlw B re »‘ overtrading and unusual money fucii ' l * oß their, the spuria cir cular—doing some good—"hut a great deal ol harm—and every way wrong, because it was unequal and illegal,—hero wo h.’* v p the train which has, at last, been fired, and bK'wn, ,““ky high, 1 ’ the commercial credit anu prosperity ol the U, S, —The intelligent reader W'fi this train, the failure ofllio wheat crop . r>r two years, and tho necessary introduction of la.’s° quantities of foreign grain, and other matters, which will readily present themselves to a busi ness man, when he reflects seriously on rho events which have preceded tho present catas trophe.” To this catalogue, the Gazette with great pro priety, might add one or two other powcrlul causes. Tho passage of the law by Congress altering tho value of American Gold coin,by which it became an object with speculators to purchase Gold in Europe, to soil again in this country nt a premium,—also the course adopted by our Government in importing nothing hut gold t.i payment of our claims upon Franco, Na ples &c., hy which two processes an unusually large quantity of the precious metals wore drawn from Europe, leaving too great a scarcity there for circulation and commercial and Ranking transactions—So soon as this scarcity began to ho felt, added to a knowledge that tho Cotton crop of last year would boa largo one, it produced a decline in that article in Europe-—a correspond ing decline here, of course succeeded it—the de cline hero prostrated all those who had embarked largely itt tho business,drawing along with them a largo portion of the mercantile world, and at lire same lime crippling the Ranks of all tho commercial cities. Add la this, tho position oc cupied by Gen. Jackson towards Franco a year or two ago, which induced lire belief that we wore upon the eve of a war with that Government. In consequence of Ibis, extraordinary quantities of French goods were imported into this country under the belief lira, the scarcity of them pro duced by s war, would enhance their value.— Rut the storm blew over—the goods were pur chased to an amount beyond (ho wants of tho country and beyond the means of the purchasers to pay for—another one of the glorious conse quences of General Jaskson’s heedless and head long policy. Tho imports into this country last year amount ed to lUO millions—lire exports to 140 millions loavtng a balance or debt against us of 60 mil lions. Os tire imports, 00 millions were in spe cie. Now if, instead of importing s;>ect«, (his 00 millions had been appropriated to payments for merchandize, we should have been in debt hut 50 millions ; an amount, which would have produ ced hut little if any pressure. Rut the specie has been imported and been made (he basis' for the establishment of multitudes of new Ranks—in order to sustsin these banks, it must he kept in tiro country—to keep it itt the country, the banks have been compelled to suspend specie payment,, ( and this is the statue quo of affairs at present.— , So sootr as the Ranks commence specie payments those in the commercial cities indebted to Eu rope will commence drawing it for exportation— |, and the merchants in the interior will drain tbs 1 country Ranks to pay their debts in the cities, j This is the natural course, unless in the mean time confidence and credit arc restored until the resources of the country are capable of retrieving it from its embarrassments. It is said by some that those who arc in debt to Europe ought to he allowed to break and let the loss fall upon Europe. The goods pureba sod in Europe, have been sold in this country liy the importers to the jobbers —hy them to the coun try merchants and hy thorn to the people. — It is thus to a considerable extent, a debt of the country, although individuals only, may owe it directly to individuals in Europe. Many of those individuals will no doubt break and a loss accrue to Europe, hut tho largest portron of them arc able to pay their debts, when those to whom they have sold their goods, shall pay lor them. The American merchants are generally an honorable and high-minded class, and will pay their debts—The’suspension of specie pay ments is o:dy an extension of credit —a postpone ment of pay-day, to which, the debtor taking lire law into his own hands, compels the creditor to submit.

That this meeting do acknow ledge the propriety of the suspension of specie payment by the Rank of Hamburg, arid that any other course would have been contrary to its vi tal interest, as this course had been adopted by the Ranks of this Stale previous to that of the Rank of Hamburg. Resolved 2r/., That this meeting have full and implicit confidence in tho solvency and prudent management of this Institution.

A young man in France lately had the i capricious fancy to determine on tlie destina tion of his dug by drowning, on account o( | some slight fault,.’ By the assistance of a boat ho threw the animal into the middle of the Seine, and with an oar he prevented him from regaining the side. Whilst thus cruelly occupied ho lost his equilibrium, fell into the river, and would have assuredly perished but for the assistance of the faithful dog, which he had attempted to drown. The dog seized him by the collar, and sustained him above water, until assistance was rendered from the shore. A Boston editor, a cunning chap, in speak ing of tho announcement ol a brother editor in Providence, that fresh salmon, the first of the season, had been sold in that market the day before, shrewdly says, “We know a trick worth two of that. We never announce the first salmon, but go quietly to work and eat it. Tho second, ditto —ditto, the third.— . When the fourth comes, wo relinquish the . monopoly, and formally announce ‘ikcjirsl ■ of ike season.”' We like this editor’s dark. • non-committal course. “A still sow gets all I he swill.” . The versatility of lawyers is most 'extraordina , ry. They can turn their hands, it seems by their own Ootrfewvn, to almost any kind of business. Tho following is from a communication in the . Pennsylvania Sentinel: I heard one, the other day, in his speech to the jury, say. “Me arc shopkeepers, gentlemen, and we sold tho defendants tho ham and eggs, and they promised to pay for them.” His opponent replied, “ Ife, gentlemen of the jury, arc no more than journeymen in an oyster cellar, and we bought the articles for our principal, and this ac tion does not properly lie against us.’’* This is a laudable instance of industry. The example should he recommended to all who complain of these hard times. Absence of mind. —A gentleman just from the West informs us of an instance of this Aim! where a Yankee speculator, while engaged in speculation fell to whilling his fingers instead of a stick and did not discover the mistake till he had whittled off his two first fingers and sharpened the third t® a point. —Detroit Spectator. mmmmm iiuii n B V in Alfa.

[FOURTH DAT.] Philadelphia, Friday night, May 20, 1837. “Tho agony is over,” and Lady Clifdcn’s star is still in tho ascendant. She has triumped over i “the mightiest of the mighty,” distanced Mingo, , tho conqueror of many u field, three limes over, i It was a haid fought contest, and the victory i yielded only to the superior strength and speed of the Maryland blood. The course and stands were crowded to excess, and the excitement among all parties equal to time which preceded the race between Bascombe & Post Doy.

Tholst heat was beautifully contested by Mingo, Decatur tuning merely to save his distance. The little filly stumbled two or three times, so deep and stiff was tho mud on the back side of the ’ track, and lost much ground in consequence, and 1 Mingo would give her (he tgo-hy,’ but whenever J, John, her jockey, touched her with the spur she ' would rush up and pass. This I think occurred three times. When she came down tho quarter 1 stretch ahead and passed the stand, the winner of 1 tho heat, the shouts were deafening. The second heat was won by Decatur, after a severe struggle width Lady Clifdcn,Hiy a few Jen ' glhs—Mingo gave out after the third utile, and 1 was stopped. 1 The third heal Lady Clifdcn took the lead, and ' despite every effort of Decatur, kept it ho whole ! four miles, coming in at her ease two lengths 1 ahead.!—The style in which she won this heat was beautiful, and confirmed tho opinion express ed by the best judging among out turfites, that she lias no equal now in the United Slates. 1 Bets at starting, SSOO to 400, Mingo vs. field; 0 ‘ r ercd and taken; —§1,000 to 500 Mingo, vs. either ecatur or l ' lc Lady; and about evert he wceii Dt ‘’ atur anc * LaJ y Clifdcn.

M.—Tho position which has been brought, about by the Government, not only has deranged the currency of the country from one end to tho other, but has also broken up all tho tegular business channels between this coun try and Europe. For the last twenty years, the correspondence and confidence of the merchants have been such, that shipments of cotton could he t'tado to England or Franco with entire safety, and the proceeds are anticipated or realized, with out tho slightest difficulty. Now confidence has be.-omo so shaken, that shippers dare not ship, aid if they did drafts would not sell In this di lemma, a new and novel course of business has t«kea place. Now, shippers desirous of sending cotton, are compelled, if they require an advance to send their cotton under the direction of the IT. S. Baule —that is, if the cotton sent to hou ses in Liverpool and the proceeds remitted to the friends of the Bank in London, then the Bank will advance a fair portion of the amount of the value of tho cotton. By a bill on England, this coutso of trade has one very important advantage and that is security. The houses on the other side are beyond question good and the drafts of the Bank of course safe. The Bank, as well as individuals, arc drawn to this course by the pros tration of credit. Formerly bills were taken most freely and in the general credit that prevail ed, were good. Now, the Banks to insure the sol vency of the hills, are compelled in self defence i to lake the course they have. Thus it ap pears that the United Slates Bank has a greater control of the business of tho country than she j ever has had hafore, and that wealth is monopliz ing not only the financial but the business trans- 1 I I actions of every branch of tljp community, The Custom-house is in-somo trouble from the i technicalities of law. If the bonds are sued, and judgements had ’and the personsoflheparltcs are taken, all personal properly is in fact free. Xhe position of the Government, by exacting specie, will be decidedly worse. A new era prevails relative to pilots. Formcr ly the system might he termed close corporations, or monopolies, and the public were so oppressed that they hardly expected ever to he relieved, a change, however, has come at last. The law of the United States has effectually broken up the whole systsm. The Jersey pilots have common- _ ced, and the commissioners have licensed about , twenty more, thus adding forty to the number; besides which the old pilots have dissolved their association, and they ore all running in oppost- lion to each other; the consequence is, that vessels arc boarded often times cut sight of land. So far tho breaking up of the system has had the hap- i picst effects. I IVSaa'iuc Intelligence. ' DEPARTED. 1 Sicamboat Chatham, Wray, Savannah. Steamboat Elbert, Wood, Savannah.

When this instrument is carefully and properly fitted to the form ot the pa tient it invariably affords the most immediate immu nity from the distressing “dragging and bearing down” sensations which accompany nearly all ca ses of Visceral displacements of the abdome i, and its skilful application is always followed by nil ear ly confession of radical relief from the patient her self. The Supporter is of simple construction and can bcappliod by tho patient without further aid. Within tlio last two years 700 of the Utero Abdomi nal Supporters have been applied with the hap py results. The very great success which this Instrurne it lias met warrants the assertion, that its exaniinat on by tho Physician will induce him to discard il o dis gusting pessary hitherto in use.
