Financial. —Thompson’s Bank Note
Reporter of the 2nd inst.. has the fol
lowing respecting money matters:
We are glad to be able to state that
there is a decided improvement in the i
tone of the Money Market, and but j
for the unfavorable, effect on confi
dence which the recent Bank defalca ;
tions have occasioned, we should look
for comparative ease in mQnetary af
fairs almost immediately. The most
favorable feature is the decline in for- j
eign exchange, and the consequent
falling off in specie shipment. The
best bills on London can now be pur
chased at 9 per cent., which is below
specie point. Cotton is coming tor
ward to some extent, and the supply i
of bills drawn against shipments is
increasing. The drain of specie for
the past week has begn from N. York
and towards Philadelphia and the
West, and the Banks have been com
pelled to still farther contraction. —
Late accounts from tile West, howev
er, report an improvement in business
generally and,except in isolated cases
the Bank troubles are over, and coin
is begining to be returned tolbiscity.
Out*-city merchants are beginning to
get remittances from the inteidor ? and
ttoerir heavy “payments are over, and
the demand tor money from that class
is decreasing. First class paper, short
dates, is in fair demand at 1(1 to 12
per cent. Demand Loans on Stock

Speech of Kossuth on the War.—
On the 30th ultimo, a meeting was
held in London in commemoration of
the Polish revolution of 1839, and at
which Kossuth delivered an eloquent
address. The course of the allied
governments, jn conducting the war,
is criticised without mercy, while the
gallantry of their armies is dwelt up
on with spontaneous admiration and
applause. According to Kossuth, the
< nly means of securing the West of
Europe against the encroachments of
Russia is the re-construction of Po
land, followed by the restoration of
the other lately subjugated and sup
pressed nationalities ol'the Continent.

GENERAL PRESENTMENTS.
r They have examined, through
olsn and progress of the building of our Cjnrt
House, and we are well pleased with the same.
We think the Inferior Court dp-eive
; dii!ion of all (he citizens of llieconuty, fofhhMr j
good taste and management in this part ot lieir 1
responsible duties
The books in the Ordinary’s and ail of the !
Clerks Offices are neatly :.ni correctly kept,and
ail the arrangements ot their i ffiecs such as to
reflect high credit on these officers.
The Treasurer reports the sum of §5,005 00<
a- having been paid ,o him by the Tax Collector,
of which he lias paid out fur pub ic buildings and
other purposes on orders of the Inferior Couit
§2.110 80, leaving a balance iu his hands of
§2 894 92. The Tax Collector informs us there
is the amount of about §5.140 00 for county
ptirpises yet uncollected io his hands. The
amount raised for a poor school fund bv the coun
ty is §199 20.
In considerat’on that the citizens of our coun
ty on t lie Earl sale nl Flint River pay their pro
pi ilional part ol Taxes lo keep up bridges indis
criminately in all parts of the county—-the great
quantity of produce they furnish to the city of
Albany, nod the value of their trade to tiie town

bor4#e(i,ir Court t< asaess an mdisetlftirm*;
county tax .ufficieut cither to rent an-l attend one
of the Ferries for I lie use of our county, or to
secure all the citizens of the county the privilege
of crossing the River at one or more of llie Fer
ries free of charge; provided, the said Court
j can secure this privilege upon what they may
| deem fair and reasonable term-, and without be
j ing too burdensome to the county. We would
j also recommend the Inferior Court toeuquire into
[ the liability for losses, if any should be sustained
at the town Ferry. From the best information
tliis body can obtain they are induced to believe
that, whilst the proprietors of this Ferry have in
voked the “strong arm of the law’’ to prevent the
citizens Irom establishing a free Ferry, they at
tempt to evade all liability for losses which may
occur, by sliilting tbe responsibility on persons
unable to respond.
The roads in the county are generally in gnoii
ordi r. The street iu Albany leading to the Ferry
and l lie hill on the o| posite side of the River are
exceptions to this order. We recommend the
proper amliorlties to correct these exceptions.--.
We would also suggest to our Inferior Court the
propriety ol completing the Can eway across the
Colaivaliee Creik at Jordan's Ford, and make it
free public highway, if it can be done on a fair
and i a oilable i xpenditure. Also to enquire into
the propriety of keeping open, and in good com.
dilion, tiie o!d Gillidnville road across the Chick

Would re-p -ct tillv suggest, to the City au liorities
ol the tow nos Albany—if they issu * license at

of twenty five dollars is certainly a most pitilul
compensation lor the exdu-ive privilege ol mad

basing the character of our citizens to sav noth !
ingot the time of Courts and Juries consumed

TAKE great pleasure in announcing to their
oi l patrons and friends, and the public gen
erally, that they have removed their stock otCar
riages and other goods from Oglethorpe, to the
flourishing town of Atnericus, and would also
state that we now have one of the
CHOICEST STOCK OF CARRIAGES
ever offered for sale in Georgia. If you door do
not believe it come and see for yourselves. And
what is still better, they can be bought as
cheap (il not a liitle cheaper) as at any house
North or Sonth. The truth is gentlemen, we
need MONEY, and if you will just bring a little
of the needful with you, you shall have a Car
riage, Huggy, or whatever you may want, at some
price or other, and as competition is “he order of
things, we intend to get a little of the trade,
while the balance .are getting a heap.
We shall continue to keep Carriage and Har
ness Trimmings, Saddles, Ilarnes-, Gin Baud’
ing, Leaiher,etc., etc.

pay those whom we owe. We hope all those
