After the fieport and Uejolm ona of the

<Jen. Uauii.ton, President oi too Bisk oi

hud grown up in n reason of groat and dis
tempered panic, had travelled on ihi winds
of heaven far and wide, bringing this lusliin
tiou into anrpicinn an 1 distrust. Ho much so
that hut lor this most foilunate oppoiluiiily
of vindication, he hud intended t 1 have eng

I demai d f r the Bank over which I preside,
that the accounts oi' till of them shall lie made

Mr. King having, in a serior ofa very few
pertinent remark ', urged tho inutility oflhe
adoption of (I ’it. II tiiiillou’a resolution, mid
that although nil the B inks were 1:1 a niiuaiion

pressed the hnpo that tho mover ((leu.
II.) voiihl withdraw his motion.
Gen. 11. in reply,remark!.l; I am quite wil
ling Mr. Chairman, to modify, hut not to with
draw my motion. I move, therefore, to
amend the resolution in the following partic
ular; to strike out, the words of “each of the
Banks in this Gily.” nml to insert “tho Bank
of Charleston,” ami thus coniine the rcsolu.
(ion to a publication of tin statement of.
tho Dank of Charleston alone, =4 (Tunl;
wo have a right, sir, to t () publish the
""tTHW: niaJu up the ver
dict in our favor.
Tim Chairman, (the M lyor) hero rose, and
infim itiug to Gen. 11. llm objections to tho
publication ofan insulated 1 lalemenl, said
that the exposition ofthu affairs of"tho Bank
of Charleston was unnocc-sary—that ho

condition iu which they had found (hat Bank.
Ho cxiv ei cl a hope tint Ids friend would
even wittn'r ",v the modification he had pro
posed, ih well ns t',,o “f: riilal resolution,
Gen. 11. sai l in reply, that it would certain
ly be an act of very ungracious pertinacity fol
ium to press this motion any further against
the wishes of friends whoso opinions bu su
diigldy ri spee'ed.— But ho could not withdraw
Irs motion, without employing the opportuni
ty which had b :e 1 so lupp.iy ufiorded, of ma
king a public vindication of tlio Institution
over which he pro h’d :of r -folin f the hliiii
ders which hid brea uttered against it, and
those cngijod in the administration of its con
c rns.
It is known to you, sir, that for tho last two
months the Bank of Chirk: -.ton has been de
clared in folia circimr-laiiees—and that this
Blalo of things, it fun ben said, liad boon
brought on by cur engaging in a most exten
sive un i ruinous foreign and dom -.tie
exch.inj s huskies.'; and that moreover, tin!
Directors mid my. elf, had appropriated a
large port i nos tho capital of the Bank to
om.selvin in ! . uis of the most licentious and
disproportionate character. Mark how a plain
tale shall put tb : calumny down. 1 will now
read the statement of the general condition
of the B inks on llm loth of May, which was
presented to your Committee appointed to
ox mini.'! j i*a l ie stale of line didere-il In
stitutions in this city. (Here Gen. 11. read
tho statement ol tbo Banks, and he here coin
mcnte I i’= follows npdtffUs diilbrent items.)
It hashed n .m r..'r. Chairman, tint
the Bunk "I Charleston had purchased one
million of Foreign Rx fung’; and that eight
hundred thousand dollars of this sum had
coma back upon us under protest. By refer
ring to tho account, you will find that the
Bank has ruftning to m-.lnr.ly a mri-igu ,
change account of §101,9 >972;and that wo
have not a single hill no 1 r protest. 1 know,
because come of tho principal guarantees arc
in my hand.*, that, for th s amount, wc have
homo ami foreign collaterals which furnish
the v -ry best s ,'curity.
Os tho domes! c fail's of exchange under

circulation is not equal to on • half tbo am stmt
of our capital—and thui, amidst the powerful
and j;icc"H|t drains ol specie which wc have
sustained fur the Inst three months, (I might
mors appropriately day for the last twelve,)
. we have yet §1 >7,3?J,3d in onr vaults, after
liaviog 10 tiioliist sevcnleca months paid out

wo realize! a surplus of 036,593 73; and

83. In truth, sir, in (be first qinrtcr of the
. present ycivfjtbo bank made its'omi-anmial di
vidend of five per cent; Ci. but for the exlr.ior
di.iiry revuloon which Ins fallen like an ava
-I‘inche on the whole civil zod world, wc should
pay five per tent, to our stockholders, and bo
able to add fitly thousand dollars to our
. t .surplus fund.
Having thus disposed of llic unfounded
statements which have been made against tbe
general condition of the Bank, let mo say a
word or two in regard to the slander uttered
against those engaged 11 its administration.
1 understand that it lm» been very generally
rumoured from the ocean to the mountains,
that the Directors had lit-jpcil themselves to
tiio entire capital ol tho Bank!!
Now, sir, in reply to the charge, I do not
1 believe that'thore is in any institution ol the
U. H. a ho ly ot Directors wh ', in proportion
to the extent of their business and their well
, dm.ded claims to credit, have comparatively
smaller account!, or who have more entirely
iib.ulnod from using the situations they hold
to obtain large accommodations. In tho first
’ hiifiness in this city, in various and multiplied
branches oftradc, tiiey arc in the best sense
of tho term the best customers ofthc Bank,
because they Im/c brought to it a business
vastly profitable, belli direct and collateral.
1 fool tho humility of 8| preaching a topic
personal to myself. It is, however, the senti
ment of a wise man of antiquity, which may
1 ho lima rendered into plain English, “if it is
: worth any one’s while to slander another, it
1 is worth Ilia while to refute it.” And hence,
sir, 1 must, in the prcsenco of my friends,
1 meet with a round arid unvarnished contra
-1 diction, the rrjKiil which I understand Ims
1 been rile, that rny friend mar mo, (Mr. Bvvoi:)
: and myself, were reciprocally on each oth
er’s paper in the Bank of Charleston, to the
amount of half a million of dollars, and that
wo were both ah.ml to blow iqi, and to carry
the Built with us : lam not on tbe paper
■ of that gentleman, or he 0:1 mine, to the ex
s tent of one cent, cither in lliu Bank to which
* wc both belong, or any other im.litution in
1 the world. It has been moreover asserted
by those who exercise such a watchful supor
r mtcndanco over ray interests and reputation,
- tlmtlheso alleged endorsements of my friend
I were on account of loans incurred in Bank
c lor the most extravagant speculations in lands
a and negroes in Mississippi. In reply to this
0 count, in the indictment, I have merely to sny
II that I tlo not owe tho Bank one farthing for
11 a lent of land in Mississippi, or for n negro
ir there or elsewhere. After t lie so rumors, 1
■ was not surprised to find, on my return from
’I my plantation on .Savannah river, yesterday,
0 it actually reported that I Ind a’ uconded :
J 5 yes, sir; ran away to Texas! Now, sir, I
'* am tree to conli>e, if I were to run, I do not
‘ know where I should lly sooner than to that
H land of horoic uchif vment and glorious cnler
ori 0, just hording Into life in all tbo prodi
-1 g, ll, : 'v of nature’s choicest gifts. But, nir, 1
' iitia nut goneyot. Indeed, nr, tho {dory of
my clop M.-'Ciit puts mo in mind of nu itnec
- diito Which I.'V Jomentcj Irieinl Air. Ra.n
--; uonpxi, once rel ated to me. lie told me that
: bo find returned' end autumn to Roanoke, and
I found lb-I his plaiti.l'linit was literally starved
’ out. A few nil: arable of tobacco

■ ntterled ilia saturnalia in wlu (; h •■‘‘ a negroes,

’ ged during Inn ah; once.
He accordingly assembled his people, Olid
, udilrcc.-e.il them us follows:—“Ladies and go.' 1 ’
I tluinen, 1 beg leave to inform yon, that it you
t do not run away from mo, I will from you.”
Perceiving no motion that his proposition
I was about to 1-e accepted, ho very good hu
mored y said, "UK a starving house yields no
i mall, wo had better runaway together,” Ho
shall it be with my elopement. When I run
trom our iniyovcristicd corn-crib, you will not
be far behind, 1 promise you. But enough of
this “badinage." Tho times are calculated
10 impress far more serious feelings. They
j are had enough, but llufir consequences are
worse. They have produced a distempered
panic, which is destructive of oil confidence
seemingly between ourselves. The terrible
eftlgy of the last man surviving on earth, up
to the pcrfoifbl' its final annihilation, to which
tTio imagination of the painter lias given so
powerful an illustration, is lint a typo of tho
solitary selfishness and appalling distrust
which pervade and mid a thousand tortures to
the dark conjuncture in which wo find our
selves. The tics of human sympathy, which
constitute the great chain of human connex
ion, become broken, ami it is, in an unhappy
moment like this, that wo regard our best
friends with a coolness and suspicion that
are absolutely benumbing. Humor, with her
thousand longues, flics on the wings of the
wind, and slops not until sho has lata nu'.'lj'
an innocent head low in tho dust. This is
not the spirit or the lone in which the crisis
is to be met. The reverses which come upon
our country, are to bo encountered by the
combinations of a more enlarged and active
sympathy. By mutual confidence and for
bearance —by patience, industry, frugality
and fortitude—hy not despairing of our own
country or ourselves.
It is line, we Imvo fallen from a high ami
palmy state ut prosperity, (more apparent in
smno respects than uni) into a condition
which, however dark, the forebodings of tho
future seem tube still worse. There is no
iiliiiking tho (act, that the almost simultane
ous suspension of specie payments through
out tho United Flutes, is, in every financial
active ol tiio word, n deck l ration of national
bankruptcy. But who doubts the solvency
of this great country —that its resources vast
ly transcend its idebtedness, or that any par
alysis on its industry must, bo essentially fu
gitive and temporary' l Wo shall come out
of the struggle wiser from its inflictions. To
ourselves, it ought to boa source of bound
less comfort, as well as of pride, that South
Carolina is so partially affected by the tem
pest which is sweeping elsewhere with such
destructive viol -nee. Onr public credit stands
on adamant. Charleston is tree from tho re
proach of ever having witnessed the insol
vency ot one of her banks. Their situation,
from tiieir limited circulation and tbo specie
now in tiieir vaults, will enable them instantly
to re ;umo specie payments when the faith of
■ this obligation shall be met by llm other nun
j niereial cities oi this Union. That this obli*
■ gallon should lie . et, and speedily met, tin re
cur be hut one opinion. Thu danger of our
Ihuiiu i.vl system running into the apparently
, ( easy, but really destructive stream of an irre
sponsible paper currency, is appalling. No
man has tho forccastfo predict tho evils
1 which would 10-nilt from such a state of things.
F.vils which in other countries have tormina
r ted by convulsions, in which life as well as
, properly have paid tho forfeit. But in the
. ! restoration of things to a sound basis of pub
-1 Miu credit, our State is prepared to do her du
-1 j ly, and in this effort, let us not “bate one jot
. I of he irt or hope,"
- ! Air. Alcmmingor said, that the course which
It! is discussion had taken, rendered it some
t what incumbent on him to make a low obscr
• \ atone. From what had been said, it might
be inferred that there was sonic unwillingness
■ on tho part of thl Banks to lay their state
; merits before the public, lie, (Mr. M.) had,
among others, been charged with tho duly oi
making any explanations which might be de
sired by the Committee of the Citizens, nod
ho was present when the various statements
were presented, JIo foil it duo to all the in
..•ivitions to state, that they wore presented
j w 111 the greatest franknos-', and that as lie un-
I derstood the matter, tho Committee was left
j jiretec'ly at liberty to publish, or to make mid
1 other use of the information -vliic'i tho public
interest required. As an individual citizen,
he felt much interest in these statements, and
had examined them with care. Tho results
have been accurately reported by the Com
mittee, nml in n form intelltgibls to tho com
inanity. Mr. AI. said, that he had fur some
time past hoard various rumors unfavorable
lotlro Bank of Charleston—-Ihalbeiug a stock
holder in that institution, he had begun to en
tertain somcoftho apprehensions which gen
erally prevailed, and be, therefore, looked
v.kii some anxiety for their statement. Up
on examining it, he could not but express his
surprise at the perfect contrast which it pro- *
sonted to his apprehensions! Various explu-;
nations wore added l>y the Committee winch I •
altended from that Built, which rendered the : 1
statement still more satisfactory i ani the,'
vindication which wo have just heard from j c
the honorable grntlcman who has preceded j j
rnc, has amply laid before the public the de- : J
tails oft ho whole matter.
But, however interesting these matters may j
bo to tlio Bank of Charleston and al concur- j
tied in it, however proper in tlie oihecra of (
tliat institution to avail thcmaeivos of I his op- j
portuniiy of vindicating themselves, it does ,
not appear to mo that satisfactory rej ons t.r: (
thorby presented for incumbering t::o lucid i
concise report ot iho Commitlco with detail- '
<<l statements of the affairs of the Banks. <
No other institution has been impugned, and i
it is easy for the Bank of Charleston to publish
its own statement for the information of its
Stockholders. This, with the explanation I
this day publicly made, will sufficiently on- t
swer their purposes. All that the public is in- 1
, (crested i ,yoii;lCommiltc have fully reported
—they I ave carefully ascertained Hie resihls, 1
( ami they toll us that in their opinion, no good
. end will be answered by publishing at largo ;
i the details. J
i As to the main subject of your consideration
Mr. jY|. said, ho would present imo view, .
. which ho thought important to boar in mind. ‘
By following out tho statements to H eir re- 1
■ . uit?, it appears that tho total liab hties of >ll ,
■ sorts, which tho Banka arc under to the puu
. lie, amount to about 8 millions of dollars;
i while on the other hand the public owes tho .
i Banks somewhere between 10 andT7 n..lions
I that is to eay, that for every dollar for which
. the public gives credit to the Banks, tho fofm
, or bold in their own possession as a sc- urily,
j two dollars worth of thoir own property. Can
[ creditor be more secure—would any mull do
-5 giro to deal on safer terms, than to bo allow*
i cd to borrow two dollars from tho person to 1
/ whom lie lends one?
r But again, the obligation is eo-cxtcnsive
i upon all to pay their debts in gold and silver.
I l! tho Banks must find specie to pay tho eight
i millions wh'cli they owe the public, then we
, are under tho like obligation to pay in specie
: tho sixteen millions which wo owo them. It
I is obvious, therefore, that tho interests of all
t of us arc, to say the .’cast, identical.—Nay,
I said Mr. M. there is sldl a stronger obligation
. upon ns. Does not every citizen of thistom
. iimnity remember that when the eigne of the
I times begun to indicate the storm which has
f now burst upon ns—when tho clouds began
. to lower from every quarter of tho horizon—
. when every man of foresigh t was satisfied
I. that a place of shelter would soon be most
i desirable—that these institutions, intoad ol
I shrinking bad: and occupying a post of sale
i ty, boldly same forward and resolved to stand
, ihobrunt-llmt the individuals who had placed
, oip.t.i in these Banks, launched it forth freely
. like lire id upon the waters, & came forward to
sustain the credit and fortunes ol’thocormmi-
I nity. The officers of these institutions weft
. knew their danger, hut they wore not appall
ed —they have trusted to the honor and inlcg
o.'y pftlioir countrymen, confident that if
a cnd.'a came ail would make a common cause,
ami the/ were not deceived—they have not
yielded lliCi." confidence in vain—wo nro all
! prepared to slat'd by each other, ami before
any shall fall who .deserve to stand, there must
ho one general crash, which shall involve us
• all in one common runt.
Such boing, then, tho sOnso of this whole
community, Mr. M. said he u’opod that no tui
, nor subject of discussion would be allowed
■ to divert or distract attention. Tho proposi
, lion made by his honorable friend, appeared
, somewhat foreign to the main object of this
, meeting, and however desirable it might ho
i lo give to it publicity, the forms now proposed
, did not seem Hie most appropriate. Ho
, therefore hoped the mover would withdraw
tho proposition, nn.l leave the Report of 100
, Committee untrammelled by any extraneous
. matter.
, (lon. 11. then rose ami said, in conformity
. with tho desire of his friends, and the nppa
, rent wishes of tho meeting, ho would press
l his motion no further, and ask leave lo with-
I draw it.

Tallahassee, 11th May, 1837. te
I have received your letter of the 2Clh ult. in- br
forming me of the disticssed condition of YY cat tb
Florida. 1 had previously received the same in- at
tclligcace, and of even more recent and disas- cl
Irons occurrences—the indiscriminate murder of tr
a whole family, the father, mother, and eight I)
children. I immediately ordered 100 men to cl
march from Jackson County, and adopted other ol
measures of which I advised you by the last mail, la
On the 7th instant, I informed General Jcsup by t.
an express boat olAlic recent murders in Walton w
County, bu‘ I have no hope whatever of rccciv- w
ing any assistance from him, as you may con- it
ecivo from tho following extract of a letter which sc
I received from him, dated the loth of April. In I
speaking of a mc-sagc which lie had received v,
from the ch Tof the Micosuky band, promising (
to collect his warriors and join Micauopy at j :
Tampa—he says ‘'how far he is to bo trusted is ];
doubtful. My own opinion is, if our forces be a
diminished, they will give themselves no further g j
rouble to execute the engagements.” JJ
“I shall ho obliged to select healthy positions ,)
for tho troops dating the summer, if such posi- fl
tions can he found in Florida. lam extremely (;
doubtful vvhellicr (ho emigration can be clfcctcd. j,
“Tho Chiefs are sincere, hutthey cannot control a
their people.” .Y
I have another loiter from him, dated on the p,
Sfitlr ult. in which he says but little on that sub p
jeet, but tho officer by whom it was borne, in- \
formed mo that when he left Tampa, including g
men,women, children and negtccs,there were on- •/,
ly about 170 of tho Scminolcs enrolled for cini- j
gration. That lliere were twenty odd vessels j
waiting for emigrants, and that others had left j
there bora tire they Could not ba employed. In (
this slate of things, wo cannot hope for assistance J
from Gen. .letup. Before the officer mentioned
above, left Tampa, Capt. Pago had arrived and
made known our situation, and this olncor, (Ls. p,
Lockwood) tho bearer of tho letter of Iho 2Clh g
uit. was on his way to Fort Mitchell to enquire
into the situation of the Indians. y
You will thus perceive that wo are left lo re-
!y alono on our own resource. Evcy exertion j
in my power shall he made to meet the emergen- j
cy and il our citizens will stand to their urns, [
have no doubt of our success. I have offered
Col. Morton command of iho District all west

If ho accepts, of which I hope to be informed to c

City of M,< amoras, 2Ut April, 1837. t
YVc the undersigned, the captain, passengers t
and crow of the lichooncr Julius Cotsar, mid eiii- ,
zenzoftho United Elates, ambarked at New Or
leans on the evening of the Bih of April, on board t
the above vessel, for the port of Brazoria in Tex
as. On tho morning or the ISth, we were over
hauled, and taken by the Mexican bug of war ,
Gen. Toran. Tlio sclroonor's papers, and some |
of our passengers, were taken on hoard of her, (
while a pizo crew, consisting of eight men and a '
lieulcna it, were placed in our vessel. They j
changed our course, steering for the. Brazos do ,
Santiago.—On the morning of the 13th, they or- ;
doted on board the brig the rest of tlie passengers (
except those who had familea, as also all (ho crew (
save the captain, tho clerk of tho vessel, tho cook ,
and two stewards; and increased tho prize crew
lo twelve persons, with a lieutenant and midship,
men. On the night of the 15th, tho wind blow
very heavy, and the vessel become nearly a wreck.
The sails were blown lo pieces, part of the rigg
ing was carried away; the quarter boat was hang
ing by ono davit, while the vessel was lying in a
trough of iho sea, Iho waves making a clear
breach over her, fore and aft. YVhilo sire was '
in this condition, tho captain thought proper to
take charge of her, for the preservation of those
on board and of the cargo. 'There were at this
lime three gentlemen with their wives and an in
fant child in the cabin, and four sick men in tiro
furcastlo. The captain informed the pas senge rs [
forward of tlia danger they wore in, and advised j
them to make an attempt to retake the vessel—lo j
which they consented. There were no arms on
board, except seven or eight old rusty muskets,
two or three rides, belonging to Iho pasoengers, j
and one cutlas—none of tiro guns being loaded.-
At the time tho proposition was made, tho cap- j
tain’s orders were not to injure any of the prize i
crew} and lie requested the passengers to re- j
quite, i”' ! il Author orders. Ho then
vveui on dock pft to the r«Wn—Hw passengers j
hero being yot igrtOraP.t of v, at "’ a ; a 10 j
lake place ; and ho infoimed tholMof his .;ucii']
lions, which throw them into confusion j on I (
which thu midshipman gave the alarm.
Tlie. captain then drew a cutlass, and rushed I
upon tho deck', he was met by tlio first lieutenant, !
who immediately surrendered and went below. :
Tlio passengers in thu forward cabin, were met
by a charge of bayonets and driven back; tlio gap •
lain, who was alone on deck ordered tho marines
to surrender, ass',ring them they should not be
injured; two of them remained at tho fonvard cab
in, while t'no rest immediately made an attack on
the captain at tho mainmast! ho drove thorn
back to Iho foremast, and then going to tho cabin
called up the lieutenant and ordered him to make
thorn lay down their arms and come aft two at a
time; which lie did. By this time'thrco of the pas
sen tern came up from tho cabin with empty
muskets without bayOHcts. Tho maiiues, leav
ing their muskets at the foremast, came aft with
liicr bayonets in their scabbards, and handed
them to tlio captain who assured them they
should not bo injured, and sent them below in the
cabin.
Ho then ordo'cd sail to bo made; but found
the rigging so sc., terej and disordered, that it
was impossible to do so. It was then nearly day
light and the brig hovo in sight. The captain,
finding ii impos- bto escape, thought it best to
give tire lieutenant charge of the vessel. Tho brig
immediately cams up, ami was informed by
the lieutenant of what hud taken place. Tho
captain of the brig then ordered our captain and
tho passengers, consisting ofseven men, to bo
transfcired to tho brig and to bo put in, irons.
This was done and they remained in irons about
yO-bours. Eleven of the passengers on board the
brig put down in tho ward room, and a
guard was placed over them, till they were sent
on shore. There were three of the passengers
on board the biig, that were suffered to go at large
and fared as the officers of the brig. Those clev
i on passengers, and tho crow of the schr., were
i advised while on board the brig, that tho three
I aforesaid had informed the captain of the latter,
that we (the eleven) had conspired to take poses 1
sion of his vessel. YVe believe this was done 1
with a view of securing themselves; and wo all
solemnly declare, tint their assertion was untrue.
YVc were ignorant at tho time of the intentions
of those on board the schoohoi, and immediately
after supper on that evening, wo all retired lo ■
rest and remained quiet until morning, perfectly 1
reconciled to meet whatever might be our lot. *
On tho morning of the 17th, wo came within c
sight of land, and great confusion on deck. 1
On inquiring what was the matter, wo were in
-1 tormori there was a i American sloop of war in
sight. The captain of the brig ordered her lo lie
run on slime, and immediately had the prisoners
landed and sent to tho barracks at tho mouth of
- l!io Grande. *
The fchponer, which still had all our baggage 'l
on board, entered the river alter lying on the bar *
far some lime, and was sent eight or nine miles *
up tho stream. YVo remained at ‘ tho Barracks “
three days during which nothing was furnished
for us. till wo set out tor this city. Our road led ]
past the schooner, and or arriving at her, we '
were permitted to go on board, four at a time. V
and get our baggage. YVe found that it had ,}
been overhauled, and many things were missing. It
Iho vessel indeed was in a wretched condition, I
live baggage and cargo being tlwown heller skol- j
er in every direction, a part of tho trunks being
iroken open and clothing and money taken from a
hem. Some of the baggage could not be found fi
it all; and some of the passengers lost all their bi
dolbing except what they had on. The captain’s “’
runk had been robbed ofseven hundred and sis- jj
ly eight dollars-in bills on tie Vicksburg, Nat- d ,
:brz and Grand Gulf banks, as also of a number j,
of letters supposed to contain money. It was so
late in fire day when the vessel was cleared from
iho New Orleans, that many of the packages
were not cleared, and the goods they contained t
were not put on the manifest. The cargo is cs- i
unrated by the captain al §30,000, and the ves- It
scl was valued at §9OOO. The captain owned a >■
third of the vessel and had goods on board to the
value of §4OOO.

MEXICAN NEWS.
YVe gave in our morning paper, sundry ac- -j
counts of a battle between Mexican and Texian .1
vessels, which wo received from New Orleans f
and from anivals at this port. We now learn that 11
in some respects the accounts were much exag
gerated.
YVo learn from Capt. Thompson (formerly ,
sailing master of the Texian schooner of war J
Independence) who came passenger in the Ann s
Eliza, from Vera Cruz, that Capt. YVheelwrighl f
was only slightly wounded by a splinter in the u
abdomen —the first shot fired by the Mexicans J
having struck tho round house; Capt. Thompson
was also slightly wounded in the head by a
splinter, —Hon. Mr. Wharton, who was passen
ger in the Independence, was landed at Brasses
Dantiago, on parole. Capt. T. was landed at
Y'era Cruz and liberated. The other passengers -
were all landed at Brasses as prisoners of war. J
Letters from Vera Cruz say that the release of .
the Ann Eliza was in consequence of orders j
from tho General Government. Tho release of
tho Gen. Urrca by Commodore Dallas, was not
yet known at Vera Cruz.
Tho Ann Eliza brings§22,3oo in specie, he- •
