Some monihs since we look occasion to notice | an attack upon Gcn.D. 1,. Clinch,which’appcared | j in die Floridian, over the signnlurc of I Gen. R. K.Call. (isrfew remarks drew from tire nominal editor of that paper a most furious rc j tort, in which wo were vi-iu-d with the full mca j aura of bis wrath, for simply expressing our regret ,'iet Ocn. Clinch,in common vvilh the oilier officers of die army who had been engaged in I lac Fiori i ds war, had received the unmerited “ abuse of the Florida pieas.” Being somewhat acquainted j with die cbniai-ter of the print, end having bill , hide regard fortlio invectives of its editor, whom we understood had bean recently imported from New Jciary, for the purpose of doing the dirty ■,vork of the petty nucleus who manege ibo af fairs of theTetriloiial Government and conduct the Floridian, wo were induced to treat the arti cle with silent contempt. But in justice to Gen. Clinch, we are a„uin called on to notice another malicious attack upon the reputation of that dis j tbljSfuis'lied officer, which appeared in the la.l Floridian. On-lie former occasion, the editor disclaimed all personal animosity towards Gen. Clinch. On the contrary he professed much regard for that gentleman, and was only induced to slander him, in order to vindicate the people of Florida, whom ho affected to consider assailed, by (ho mere allu sion to the conduct of Gen. Cull at tho battle of Wilhtacoochrc, made by Gen. Clinch, in his re. ply lo Secretary Cass. But his reason for Ih' j last aisault is still more lliinsy than the Ijrsl, and show* too plainly the merely mercenary motives of tho hirelingtlufttincr. Hear 'nis pretax': “VVc very unexpectedly find ourselves obliged to offer tu the public a defence (iom charges of being ail “enemy" lo Gen. Clinch—of doing that officer “ injustice ” —and of “descending to con temptible mains" to injure him in public estima tion. A Georgia paper some weeks ago de nounced us ai having “abused'' him which »c --cusstion wo repelled at the lime; hut On this occasion wo are airuigned by Gen. Clinch him self, and those who claim lo he his “friends." We are called upon (as punishment for tho sins laid to us, n o suppose,) to publish his long letter formerly presented to the public, besides others announced us forthcoming.” .Such an excuse for a tirade of two columns! “which pardon us, wo do not mean lo print.” Monstrous provocation indeed I After having published to the world (or rather lo the territory, for wc do not think that quite tho whole world is enlightened by tho “ eliminations ” of this Daniel in the wililefnvsa) some fifteen or twenty columns of “abuse" (yes, that’s l b« word, Mr. Sihly) Got;. Clinch has til? effrontery to ask 'ho publication of his defence. Out tho editor proceeds, am) in the course of I the next half column, gives the following very satisfactory reason*, from which ho draws his conclusions. “Wo removed lo Florida, and look charge of this paper, lust spring. In common vvilh the j whole community at the north, where wo had I resided, wo had nut been able to obtain any satis factory information of the Seminole war, or of what wo fell deeper unxio.y respecting, lire mor tilying discomfiture of our arms in its prosecution; j and we sought, as soon ns we came here, loan certain the facts truly befoto wo decided in out ] own mind. A patient and impartial investigation satisfied us that the officer in command of the U. S. troop* in Florida before and when the war bioko out, was more culpable than any other in dividual, especially for the disgraces ol the tall ol 1833, and winter of 1833 and •?• That olhcrr was Gen. Duncan 1.. Clinch. Others may think differently. Be it so. Wo shall not change our opinion, or withhold what wo esteem justly tfo seived censure, until the facts we now slate ns causing that opinion are disproved or explained away.” "A second Daniel como lo judgment.” A | precocious youth indeed. Not six mouths from ; Bridge ton, mid yet is a self constituted Court of i Enquiry, and is now passing sentence upon the 1 Generals who have been concerned in tire Florida | war! How well it sounds to bear this sage Jo.soy j adventurer, who has been in the country nearly a whole si.r months, ami who knows about ns much about our Indian difficulties as ho does of the character-of the man whom ho traduces—haw i well it sonhfls we say, to heir him pronounce I Duncan 1,. Clinch to be “more culpable than • any other individual Truly ho must posses ; a most precocious intellect. But tho sagacious editor continue*. After en j deuvdewg loexboncralo Gov. Call from all Maine, | he then attempts todiserolit Iron. Clinch's state ment, via: that he “ solicited lioopv from the Secretary of War, early in the spring of 1833, but did not receive them.” In order to effect ibis design, an extract of ale tori* published pur porting to have been written by Gen. Clinch to Col. Humphries, in which the Gon.expres os the opinion that there wa* no immediate danger lo be apprehended from the Indians. 'This letter was evidently written for the express purpose of allaying ibo feats of the settlers, in order that no movement might be made by llrem which would give confidence to the Indians, vV at a lime when he was in daily expectation of reinforcements, fedtapa when the letter to Col. Humphries was written,Gvn.Clinch did not apprehend any im mediate dagger, hut ho had long foreseen the I utter impossibility ofa-ffeem-g tiro removal of the! Indians without the employment of force, and his letters, produced at the Court of Enquiry, dearly prove that h* fv-u) not left the Government unad.! vised on that subject. Was Gen. Clinch the only 1 individual deceived by the wily savages ! We think not. The melancholy occoncnc ■ at Fort I King proves that others, who had equal opportu j inties of judging with Gen. Clinch,were sadly de eeivodus lo the exact tiuro ot the breaking out ol 1 hostilities. But it was not our intention to dispute this or any other point wilb the redoubtable Floridian. ! l*ur main oljeet in noticing his article, is to lot , j die (wends ol Gen. Clinch, in Georgia see a lew ' ol the rlurgvs preferred sgainst him by Gov. i Call's minions, in order that they may determine bow much respect they arc entitled 10. ‘•Further, '* say* the editor “although Gen Clinch had been in command in Florida several years, he had not, when he had op t rorlumty and means, taken any measures t-i obtain proper to |iographictl information, winch, in case ot war, - was SO Important, So dep'orahly ignorant was he An that sulked, that his army, in marching to; to hkVrlblacOovhe in Dcoemtwr, actually hurt (heir i way • lev* mile* bom his own Unit; and umil the fall of iS'dd, lb* chief uUauw iff our (vucrsls for j split. j| iiitni/u'ioii, wjb ujhhi Indian ““9 nrjfro guide-!’ In like manner tho (i n ia blamed f*»r not ***• ling in tin- Secretary ol War the exact number of , warrior*, squaws, papoose*, &.r. Ac. in the na ‘ ' tion! Ought not llio General Government •<> ! have known the lorce of lire Indiana, without re lying upon th« judgment of (Jen. Clinch I It ' hail been in the habit of pay ing yearly annuni | lie* lo llio nation ; and it ia well known that , I there i* a register in the War Office at Wash ington of every Indian's name who baa ever re ceived a cent from the CJjvcriiinenl. Gen. Clinch war not sent theio to toko a census of the nation, aor to survey the unexplored wilds of the ever j glades, but was stationed there to enforce the f fulfilment of the treaty, and should not hare ~i l icked force with which to do it. Nor wou'd he i have wanted forces, had Florida, like Georgia been entitled to a voice in the lute presidential j election. There was no lack of promptness on I the part of the Gen. Government, when our 1 Cicr k War, broke out. Even the troops then in Florida were withdrawn from thence and marched | into the Creek nation. Indeed there was more | regular Ir sips rnarehoJ through the streets of | Augusta, in loss than 1 weeks after the corn j nioncemcnt of our war, than were engaged in | Florida during the Whole campaign of 183 G. Dutwc have already occupied 100 much space | with this matter which is in some degree foreign ■j to onr readers. The Florida war, from the be i ginning to the present time, has been a most | miserable affair, and those who have received the most hard knocks in it, have been rewarded will-. ! the most ingratitude. Wo have frequency | ingratitude laid lo the charge of the n'aoplc of that j unfortunate Territory, but wc *;.a>.e never endors ed the accusation. On (ho eontiary, wo have too high an opinion. of the intelligence and libe rality of the >• eoj.je of Florida, lo think for a mo ment that they will sustain either Gov. Call or his mail. Friday in their unprovoked and unman ■ ly e,aacks upon the reputation of Gen. Clinch, who has suffered so much in their defence— ! This much wo know—Gen. Clinch stands high I in the estimation of those who were volunteers , { under his command from this Stale, and until the five months Floridian editor has wielded some- I thing more potent in the cause of Florida than I hi* slanderous goos-quill, or can bring some stronger arguments lo the support of his accusa , tions, his strictures upon fjeh. C.’s conduct, will • bo regarded by his Georgia friends as lilank car • tiidge.

I would suppose, Mr. Editor, that a man of Mr. Calhoun's sagacity and experience as a politician, j would not so far forgot himself as lo rise in his i place in the Sonata of the United Slates, and for ' 1 the purpose of illustrating an argument) stale ’ j falsehoods, knowing them to be false.—This he ' | has done, or he is ignorant, grossly ignorant, of a j plain matter of history, which hr professes fully 1 to understand. In his speech of the 3d October ' on the Sub-Treasury bill, ho alludes lo the Bank 1 of Amsterdam in the following words. I j ‘‘A vast sum, not less than threo millions , sterling, accumulated and remained habitually m 1 J deposilo in the Bank of Amsterdam—the place o; | the returned certificates being constantly supplied -by new depositories. Wi h so vast a standing I I deposite it required but little reiloction to perceive 1 1 that a very Urge portion ot it might be withdrawn, I auJ that a sufficient amount would still be loft to i meet the tclartiiiig certificates; or, what would ' be the same m vlicet, that an equal amount of I fictitious certificates might ho issued beyond the same actually deposited. Either process, if in i torost ho charged on the deposilo withdrawn, or ■ j the fictitious certificates issued, vould be a near 11 approach lea bank of discount. This once seen, it required but little reflection to peiccive that the | same process would be equally ap; Rouble to a capital placed in bank as stock; and ftom that, j the transition was easy to issuing bank notes, ' payable on demand, on bills of exchange, or j promissory notes having but a short time to run. These combined constitute the elements of a bank of discount, deposite and circulation.” ‘-Modern ingenuity and dishonesty would not i have been long in perceiving and turning such j advantages to account; but the faculty of the 1 plain Belgian was either too blunt to perceive, or his honesty l«o stern to avail himself ol them. J To bis honor their is reason lo believe, notwith standing lh« temptation, the deposites were sa- I ciedly kept; Ukd.lWl >'• every certificate in cio filiation, theie ws* a con Depending amount in bullion or coin in alert It was reserved f U f a ii'ilhcr |«o|.ia, eiihi r nKMr injxni-'ii* ot I”* scrupulous, to make the change.”— Now Mr. Editor, it it a matter of history th* l this same Bank of Amsterdam, a mere bank of deposilc and transfer, was by it* four “plain Bel gisn” Burgomaster directors, converted, (a 4 our Sub-Treasury probably would he) into a loan orriCK, and that largo sums were loaned to the Dutch East India Company, for long periods ot lime, unknown to the tkpositors, and indited violation of the oaths of these honest Betgiun di rectors. Mr. Calhoun either knew this, or be did not —either dilemma will add Itltlc to his re putation us a bank hi»torian(for his speech profess lo give us the whole history of the hanking sys tem.) for no man can be considered a candid his torian or sound logician, who states falsehoods for facts, or founds anargument on things which never had an existence, ONE OF THE PEOPLE.

His title of inheritance is Duke, (or Prince, wc forget which ) of Oporto. There is nothing later from Franco or Africa. GERMANY. The great conception relative to the establish ment of a great continental line of railroad across North Germany, is in progress of execution. The lino of rail road in Belgium extends to the fron tiers of Franco and Prussia, fiom Ghent to Aix la Chappelle. Fiance is hesitating; but Prussia is opening 50 German miles of railroad which will afterward bo cx(endcd to her capital. The company of railroads of (ho Rhino and the Wo ser have obtained the concession, and arc selling to work upon it. Doubts and obstacles disappear. It was said, indeed that in Germany the expense "-nilroads would le enormous, and the profits ' „ „ ' the expense of 233,000 thalers per small; aiiv f , 1 , mile expended on i.V »“'«»» railroad, wa. cited with the trifling profit ol to ;er font. But these arc easily answered. In Belgian* counted only on 70,000 passengers, yet they we»P obliged to make a second line to accommodate the in creased number. In North Germany, too, the country is much flatter, and the cost per German mile will not exceed one half of the expense in ! Belgium. —.lugsburgh Gazette. Emm the N. V. Commercial AJv Ifdv. 17.
