I «f thee Mill, though hr away From my young vision new, |, I gsze upon thine ryes sweet ray, s , Thy fair and lofty brow ; I hear thy voire of melting pow’r, Those tones of holy thrill ; , In fancies of the midnight hour, I dm in I sec thee still! J , I see llieo still, —when ev’ning’s ray la glancing o'er the sea, \Vhen gentle twilight shadows play On mountain, vale, and tree. That sweet, fair form and check of rose, Those lips with fragrance wet; All, all thy joyous youth disclose— Maiden, 1 see thcc yet ! I I see (hee still, —when moonlieama rest, Along by shorn and stream, When wild, deep thoughts within my hrcaih Os Game and glory ,dream; Thy form is near me in each flight That hope and thought pursue; For what were fame and glory bright, Unless thou shar’dsl thorn mo 1 I aeothec yet,—as fresh and fair, As on that eve me met; Those eyes of soft expression dear, Those looks of raven jet. There waa a charm around thee than, That thrill’d mo with delight. And when, sweet one,»« met again. Still! still, that charm was bright. I know how sadly vain it is. To cherish thoughts like these; Yet lone beans somciimet dream of bliss, 'Mid ill their miseries. And in my lonely hours, alad When deepest woes tie mine, Strange flirting thoughts will often piss, And point to smiles of thine I I pee thee alill,—with polished brow, And hoar thy glceaome tone, Heaven avert that ever Ihnu, Should’*! feel what I have known I Like hopes that bid the heart rejoice, la youth’s fond hippy thrill; I hear, I hear thy mellow vfticc, Dearest, I see thee still I Promt he New York American. Tito nation has now before If, according Ao the avowal of Mr. Wright in tint Senate .and Mr. Cambreleng in tho House, all lha measures which the Executive government intends to propose. Relief to the people, it it distinctly said in (he President’ll message, and more distinctly in the bills reported in the two Houses by the President's friends—is a matter with which the Federal Government does nut mean to concern ilsoll. Its whole care and power ttro to be confined—as those who administer that branch of the fVovern ment contend—la paying the salaries of them eelvoa slid other offico holders, and the credi tors generally of tho United Stales, in gold, whde the people me to he loft to make shift with the irredeemable rag i issued by 701) cor porate institutions under 'dli ditl’eri'nl and d>s ttinct sovereignties I What, I hen, m the u*t; ■til's central Federal head 1 Why should the enormous expense bo incurred ol keeping such su establishment, when, virtually, one ol I lie ch es purposes for which it was ordained, that of‘•rtgulalingcoiumorcn,” —and it com merce, by necessary and inevitable couse <q tences, ihu currency, which is its lila’s-blnod, •“•with foreign nations and between the Staten," —is renounced and denounced ! But the incomprehensible delusion which would deny to the Federal Government the right and duty of regulating the currency, m ol very recent origin—(or during the reign ol the Iron-will, the United States Bank was destroyed for, among other reasons, having laded, as was alleged, to establish and mailt lain a uniform currency; and the deposites were removed, and the system o( State Bank depositaries was adopted expressly upon the ground that these measures would enable the 'Government to do what it averred the Bank ol the liluted States had foiled to do—produce unitbrmity in the currency, and economy and regularity in the domestic exchanges. At that day, no doubt was expressed cither about the right of Congress to legislate on the subject, or about the expedience of its doing so—the whole controversy being us to tho nature ana form, and not us to the legali ty of such legislation. Now, however, when the quackeries of ihc party in power have signally tailed—ns they were warned they would fail—instead ol re tracing their steps, confessing their error, mid exerting tho powers of tho government to repair the mischief, which au ignorant ami, vindictive use of those powers has inflicted I on the country—the men in office and their partisans proclaim that no such power exist, ] and endeavor to send ns buck lo tint condi tion ol'the Ceutedcratiun, whoa every Stain legislated lor list'll and its own interests without regard for the rights of others, or to the general good. In our judgment, this attempt lo shuffle off responsibility, and to unpairc the just authori ty cif the Federal Constitution, am mnis to little short of perjury lo the oath taken by public officers, t<> observe, protect, and defend that Constitution—and is. in died, more in jurious to the national prosperity, and more fatal to ilisljnsi estimate of tlm respective powers of the gt-iteml and State Governments, upon which repose tho harmony of the Union, titan even the moat arbitrary stretch of con ceded power ever attempted by General Jack cun. On tins bead, wo cannot suppose it impost. Bible that tho force of mere party discipline, can somislestle considerate men, that they will consent to sacrifice wltal wo look upon as a vital pan of tho Constitution which has insured to us heretofore such a vast amount of happiness and prosperity —for tho solo end of sparing to the inventors and upholders ol the Experiments under which the pat ton is bleeding and prostrate, the shame and morti fication ol open exposure and centrasin-t of ignorance, to competency, or uitcaleulatmg I malevolence. Wo wail with anxiety for the issue? In the debate in the Senate, on Saturday, Mr. IV til uu r asserted that be had u conversation with the Secretary of tho Treasury, anil had been informed that the Department could not go on paying the public creditors for to days longer, unless something were done by Congress. This is a hnmilituling confession. With u nominal surplus of many inillliotis of dollais— in a lime of profound peace—in a season of great abundance and apparent prosperity, the head ot the Treasury is compelled to acknowledge that dir Finances have been so administered, that the Government is on the verge of insolvency. Now. if this calamity had befallen us from any sudden vi.sitstion of Providence—it the resources of our (icople hud been swept sway by a deluge or on gtilphed by an earthquake—if any natural con vulsion had occurred adequate to the production | of such a remit, it would lie our duly tusulnutt in-1 silence Jr lo regard the ctuuseaieut as a desert and m warning. But, when, after the calmest and most indulgent examination, it i< so apparent ,u to defy contradiction that this humiliating event hss been occasioned tty the wickedness and I jncompcteocy of those whom we ourselves | have appointed to rule over us. rt n impossible to ■ regard with any complai-eu -y the authors us »ur ! iaisfortm.es. Each man should teal as if lie had a personal interest in vindicating the country - from the stigma thus brought upon it. He should 1 feel it if bis own credit were ass-tiled. The pro teats of the drafts of the Government is the dcs truoion us the commercial honor of the whole Ballon, and every man, who knows the value of j unstained and unimpeached credit, should labori to eject tram their places the faithless servants I who have thus brought the national credit into! 1 disrepute. — Ball.

Janus (lor no we must call him for con- I, venicnce,) ia rjuilo right in giving u* the credit , to auppoao that wo shall r,ot abuse Gen. Walker, and quite wrong in supposing that we had “fret ted ourselves into a passion.” We must, howev er, reserve the tight to perpetrate a jest occasion ally, even at thu General’s expense; but as the truth of a joke is its Only edge, wo may hereafter he a little moro careful in saying such things as are “too truo to make a joke of.” There arc,in doer], some things of a nntoie 100 serious to jest about. For instance, if General Walker should bo sent to the Senate, and a resolution approving the treasures of Van Boren’s administration should he introduced, Richmond county would feel herself much humbled in seeming to approve a policy which she heartily condemns. Should I it become necessary to introduce and carry thro’ the Rennie some measure of vital importance to ; the commercial interests and prosperity of Au gusta, the world would expect the Senator Irom Richmond to draft that bill, and to explain its objects, and it would no doubt bo very much as tonished te find us dependent upon some other cuunly for the performance ol that duly. Should the character of our citizens bo assailed, they would feel themsvlvea deeply mortified to ho j compelled to call upon the Senator from Chatham |to come to their rescue. Wo h ive no wish to un. ilervaltie Gen, Walker in any tiling whatever.— We are willing to grant every thing which his friends claim. Kindness as a neighbor) hospital ity as a friend, alTihili y as a gentleman, and in tegrity os a man. True, os Janus says, he lias long represented this county in tho Senate, and claiming as his best friends do for him, but a very mdflerale portion of ability as a legislator,lts ought to feel himself deeply grateful to the people | of the county fur having so long honored him wilh their suffrages, from feelings of friendship,while so many others equally patriotic and vastly superior in abilities, might have been selected in his place. At this (icculiar juncture, when all the great in terests of the country, agricultural anil mercantile, are prostrate, the people of Richmond need the services of business men in the Legislature, and least of all should they desire to he represented I hy those who support the very men and measures, !by which those interests hnvo been brought to their present disastrous condition. 1 Vr.siTi*—Ry the author of “Vimn Grey,’’ “Henrietta Temple," in 2 vols.

She has one noble and true representative iu the Senate! i Mr. King, of your State, has just finished a speech on the Sub-Treasury bill, which will do 'ate bun to a place in public estimation such as I he never before occupied. It is talked of gene- I rally as the very best speech, on the whole, that has been made during the present session. Mi. King ssys he Ins a difficulty iu making up his mold as to which oftho two propositions ought to bo adopted in preference. He is opposed to both of them, and is desirous rhat the whole sub ject roald be postponed to the regular session, which will begin iu December. He never was a friend to the Slate Bank system, it was adopted contrary to his wishesnml his vote ; and he now maintained that that experiment was a failure fiom beginning to end; and he declared that more perfidy, treachery, and fraud never was exhibited . m the hi-tory of the world, than in the attempt* I vhith have, Irom Hie fi at, been made in recoin- ! ( ‘ mend it to the (luopie. He wont into a number if dear!* m illustration unil support of these as |„ icrtiuna. He showed, nr ist clearly, that the sys* f cm had never been ol any benefit to any class ( but the large capitalists and shrewd speculators; i and that these advantages had been wrung from j the hard earnings of the poor. He spoke in se. w vere terms of the warfare carrier! on against the , a l Rank of the United Stales. The destruction of |<* that institution was just as reasonable and beue- ] fir ial as would lie the breaking up ol one. largo v and respectable grocery in Chosnut street, I uila- 1 ij delphia, and Betting up five hundred little grog P shops in its place. He believed the State Ranks ! could have fully accomplished the purposes in (| tended to be served; but they would have done j. much better, had the Executive not on every it occasion struggled to screw them up to his flnati- i * cial notions. Mr. Kmg goes against the Message ,n Into. Never has it been subjected to a severer examina- , ( lion than it underwent at his hands, He declar- j cj that not one solitary fact was true in the Prest- ‘ dent’s ainleoient of the causes of the existing cm- j _ barrassmenta and distresses. He did not make ( this assertion, of course,ln an offensive sense, but \ he said, tho President had not taken pains to in- i form himself of the real causes: but had appa j renlly picked off his facts from slump speeches, newspapers and quack politicians ! and he regret ted that an American Executive should havepro duaeda slate paper so liillc consistent with fact. Mr. King attacked tho whole financial policy oftho administration—its War against the Rank of the United Slates, which he declares had tiev, er interfered with tho political affairs of tho coun try—iu gold and silver humbugs—its specie Circular, which he says acted to prevent specu lation, just as turning a mans heels upwards would to prevent apoplexy. He avowed bis attachment to tho Democratic parly; but ho said he found it necessary to take a stand against tho progressive march of Execu tive power and patronage. llmover would con sent to submit the finances of tho country, to the Executive. No country can live under Execu tive financiering “And,” said Mr. King with em phasis,A‘i/ the present executive attempts to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor in this respect, I w ll. r. endeavor to jostle m> out.” The whole speech was admirable—and I send you this hurried notice now, on the spur for tho Express Mail; and will to in rrow give you some further sketches. I rejoice that Georgia has one true representative in tho Senate as well as in (ho House. This excellent speech has spread dismay among the trainbands. Tho debate is not yet over. M. From the ,V. V.

Altogether the'public accounts do not ; add much more to our intelligence than tire pre- \ • viuua advices, and they were much cheered by \ I the intelligence, that the knowledge ol the sus- ( pension of specie payments by the banks ol the United States had not affected the credit of the „ Bank of England. This packet, tho St. Andrew, (( is said lo have brought over 300,000 dollars ou j. merchants’ account, but here the commercial in terests continue to complain of the shortness of remittances from their American debtors ; and it is , remarked that in most instances where remrttan- | y ces have been made, to the extent ot 1000 dollars j,. for instance, they have been accompanied by new | q orders to double that amount. u These advices continue to reprobate the \|i conduct of the Rank of England throughout j t . the whole a Hair, in which feeling they ate j, supported by many here, who blame them for f, screwing the large American houses in the first 0 instance; secondly for taking them up, and thus exciting false hopes on both sides of the Atlantic; n and lastly, for their selfish conduct in letting, j them down, and fixing their guarantees with the ( hazard of paying the claims of the Rank of Eng- j land, which thus, as a pretended national corpo- ; ration, has disgraced itself by playing what is ter- f med a safe game, at the expense ol the commer- ( end community. The Washington Globe lias , t somewhat relaxed in its defence ot the Jackson and Van Buren axioms of commercial arid mono lary policy, and appears inclined to advocate a mixed currency system, as the one most likely to ■ secure stability in lire circulating medium. , There is still a strong impression that there , will be a decline in the funds arising out ol the , awkward suua ion in which the guarantees i.f tho American houses to tho bank may possibly he placed, and the turn which the market value o( the United States bonds that have already absor bed so much money may take. There has not been so much activity in the British funds, and the quotations present hut lit tle alteration, although they are (inn. Consols closed al 91 jJ. The three and a half pet cent.

The difficulties grow out of tho claims of the old French colonists. The cholera was creating some alarm at Mar seilles. In one day 19 persons had died, from among 44 who were attacked. The King had returned from his chateau at Eu, 1 and there were many rumors, of course, touching great polilic.il movements in agitation, ns tho cause of his abbreviated rusticating. There were also, two distinct rumors of another meditated at tempt upon his life, hut they were accounted naught.

Tho question as to iho dissolution of (ho cham bers was not yet finally settled, although Hole doubt was entertained that the nn asuro would be adopted. M.

The approach ol Don Carlos had cans ed some alarm, bulnot so much os might have been expected; and it was quickly dispelled by the arrival of Bspartcro, Tire Carlisle were pursued iu their retreat by the royalist vanguard, 5000 strong.—On the approach of this body the CarlLts j. evacuated Pegovia iu all haste, and betook them selves lo the sierra, or i e art, of Alharrasin, which _ is a drain of rocky mountains, separating- Lower Arragon from Castile. i General Jaureguy (El Pastor) was mxuosuvr ing to cut olf the Carlistcommunlbalions bciween Segovia mid Cantavieja.

The imports have only amounted to between 10 t ami 11,000 bales, the greater part of the United [ Slates crop being exhausted. From the turn mat- s tors appear to be now taking, it is expected that 1 great exertions will bo made to bring the new crop to market as early as possible, and the first of it is expected before the end of October. Bets have been taken that tho st ick on hand in this coun try at the end of the year, will amount lo half a i million of hales.

Accost 21st. —There has been a brisk demand for Colton today, chiefly from tho trade. The sales amount lo about 5,000 hags, including 1,000 bags of Surats. Tho market is very steady and j prices good. Acccsr 22d.—The extensive demand of last week has been sustained, and the trade have con j tinned to purchase-at the prices of Friday last. On Saturday the sales were. 4,000 bags, and yesterday 5000 Lags were sold, and the marl-et Closed with a very healthy appearance. August 23.—The sales on 'Thursday, were 4000 bags ; Friday, 4 to 5009; Saturday, 4000 ; Monday, 5000; Tuesday, 30.00, and today 3000. We cannot quote any advance in the market this week ; buyers have found it difficult lo operate to their satisfaction, in consequence of tho stiffness evinced, particularly in Brazils and Egyptians,and also the midling and common qualities of Ameri can.
