We un 1 erst and that the Commissioners’, Messrs.

We have been credibly informed, that there is three fold the amount of money deposited in the Hanks of Co lumbus now more than has ever been before. This is n ving in part to the stagnation of business, and in part to the excellent character the two banks sustain, they c tntinuing to pay specie when almost every other bank in the State has suspended. It shows, moreover, that money is as plenty as it ever was—none of it is lost— and only wants business tociil it into circulation again. —4ft ■BogiOirtfieyTilve more money than they can use. ! The Herald of that city, of the 8:h instant, says, that j ** the money market i? decidedly easier. The demand j fir money is not so great as the hanks are willing to j s-ipnly.

There hare been several arrivals at “New* York from’ Liverpool since our last, bringing London dates to the 6lh and Liverpool to the 9th ult. The money market was said to be easier in London, and the cotton market had improved at Liverpool £ to i pence Mr. Biddle’s U. S. Bank bonds w®nt out by the Toronto and Independence packet ships, which sailed from New York on the 16th of April, and had arrived at Liverpool. They do not seem to be entirely relished by the brokers of Liverpool on account of their form. ’ The London Morning Chronicle says, in reference to | bondsr>f f hc U. S. Sank to-day, in consequence of their 1 having been made payable to order, and not to bearer, which has rather checked the desire to deal in them. It is obvious that temporary speculators on the Stock j Exchange are not desirous of incurring the responsi- I bility of endorsing a species of paper that, after all, is. j founded hut upon questionable principles, since upon i every bargain an endorsement would be required that j would open a field to compound liabilities, that yet have ; not been rightly calculated upon.” Our difficulties on this side of the Atlantic were yet but partially disclosed on the other—and other sources 0} distress were beginning to operate, connected with the East India trade. The British, says a New York paper, will have their share of the commercial revulsion : which is sweeping over the world—to be felt for a few years, until, in the eager pursuit of gain, and the ever ! restless spirit of commercial enterprise, they forget the lessons of adversity and the teaching of experience. 1 here docs not, however, appear to be any pressure on the Bank of England. We feel confirmed in the im pression that there will be no suspension of specie pay ments in England, from reasons at present operating, for the banks generally are said to be fully able to re deem their issues—and when they are apprised of the suspension of specie payments in America, it will be an additional reason for them to continue to redeem. There was much distress in the manufacturing dis tricts of England, on account of the want of employ ment ami the low prices of labor. Says a Nottingham paper,—“ We have for nearly three months been suf fering severely from want of work fur the operatives Stocking and lacc frames, which are fir the great part productive of the staple part of our trade, are now near ly out of work, and in consequence thousands of hands are out of employ. On Tuesday afternoon about 2,000 unemployed hands visi’e 1 the bakers’ and butchers’ shops, soliciting charity; their imposing appearance in timidated parties to give them what they demanded. Some principle seemed to guide the leaders of the mob, tor, on one baker only giving a penny loaf, and it was proposed to throw it through his window, the suggestion was immediately decried. Another baker, on giving two half-stone loaves, was most vehemently cheered.” Since the njbnvc was written the packet ships Shaks peare and Orpheus have arrived at New York from Liverpool and London, bringing dates from the former place to the IGtli and the latter to the 18th ult. The money market and business had much improved in both cities. Trade was again resuming its wonted channels, confidence was becoming firmer, and money matters much easier in general. New York dates had been received at London till the 24th April, which was alout a month after the failure of the Josephs, and as the British merchants knew pre-ty will the worst from this side of the Atlantic, the panic was over. They knew what they hail to count on, and were making their calculations accordingly. The Chickasaw Union, published at Pontotock.Miss of the first instant, states that the land sales com menced on Monday previous at thnt place. “ The purchasers are comparatively few, and the sale dull. Superior laud, wc are informed, has been knocked off at $1 25.” The Army and Navy Chronicle, says—Gen. Jesup has asked to be relieved from his present command in Florida. hut has been informed that his services cannot be dispensed with until the Indians shall have been re moved from the limits of the Territory. Gl£X. JACKSON. The Louisville Journal of May 31st says:—‘*We yesterday received a letter from Nashville, dated on Friday last, which says—we learn this morning that Gen. Jackson was thrown from his horse 0 day or two ago, and so injured as to render him speechless.” T he Nashville Union, noticing the accident that befel Gen.

For the Sentinel. COLLINS WORTH MANUAL LABOUR AND LITERARY INSTITUTE, TA I. BOTTOM. Ga. At a meeting of a portion of the citizens of Talbot county, held this day (6th June instant.) for the pur pose (A* taking into consideration the propriety of estab lishing an institution of die above character, upon the proffer made by Mr. Josiah Flournoy of the fund of Forty Thousand Dollars to be appropriated for that purpose, provided the citizens of Talbot county will raise by subscription a further and sufficient sum for the purchase of a suitable settlement of I.and, at or in the immediate vicinity of Talbot ton and to erect the necessary buildings, 6ic. Maj. Edward W. Wright was called to the chair, and Edward Delony, appointed to act as Secretary. The meeting being organised, its object was explain ed by the chairman, with the. addition of a few appro priate remarks by B. Hill,Esq. ami Rev. Mr. Brown. On motion of M. Fort, a committee of five, com posed of tlie fillowing gyntlemen, (viz :) M. Fort, B. Hill, Rev. M. Brown, J. Z. Disinukcs and Edward Delony, were appointed to make a report and address, on the terms find condition of the proffered Donation and the nature and propriety of an Institution of this character. On motion the meeting theh adjourned td Saturday next, the 10th inst. Saturday, 10th June, 1837. Met according to adjournment, K. W. Wright in the chair, and Edward Delony, Secretary. On motion, the committee offered the following re port, which was received, read and agreed to; (viz:) REPORT. The committee, to whom was referred the subject of the •* terms and condition of the proffered Donation” of Mr. Josiah Flournoy, for the purpose of erecting a Manual Labor and Literary Institute, to be located at. or near Talbotton, and the “ nature and propriety” of an institution of such a character, beg leave tortatc, that they have had placed before them all the necessa ry means for assertaining the objects desired, and they find that the sum of Forty Thousatul Dollars has been . offered by Mr. Jo.-siuh Flournoy, for the object above specified on the following terms and conditions, viz : That the said sum of money is appropriated ns a stand ing fund, the interest of which is to be paid annually by the Trustees named in the deed of gift, conveying the same to be expended for the various uses of the In stitution in defraying its necessary expenses,&c. This interest will amount to the annual sum of three thousand two hundred dollars, an amount amply sufficient for the purposes for which it is designed. The condition on which this donation is made to the county of Talbot, is, that the citizens thereof will raise by subscription or otherwise, a further aim sufficient sum of money, for tlie erection of the necessary build ings and the purchase of a suitable settlement of land 011 which to place the said buildings, and carry on the tawmingoperations: For this purpose if is thought that of £5 or 28 thousand dollars will he amp y suf ficient, and now all that is necessary on the part of the citizens of Talbot to secure tlie location of this impor tant and excellent institution in their own county, is for them to come forward and make up the desired sum. and the preparations necessary to put this school into operation will lie immediately commenced. This aims to be an Institution of a high literary con venience, in which not only the common branches of English education arc taught, but also the classics and the various other branches ofiiteraturc usually taught in Colleges, and that these will be taught so completely and thoroughly as to enable the pupil to enter upon the study of the higher professions w iih all the qualifications of a complete collegiate course. It is deemed almost unnecessary for this committee to address you with arguments in favor of the great be nefits which would result from an institution of this character, or the advantages which would derive to the citizens of this county from its location among them. These must be so fully opparent that no individual can fail to discover them; wc deem it. however, not tnim portant to present to this community our views of some of the most important benefits which we believe will, and no doubt have been, produced by institutions like the one under consideration, and tiicsc we consider of the highest moment— -Ist. Institutions on the manual labor plan claim su periority over all (iher modes of education, on ih* , ground* that the constitution of the student is kept hcailhful and vigorous by his laboring regularly every day at stated times. Tne time occupied by labor is not sufficiently long or fatiguing to interfere with his stu dies, and labor tnus regulated becomes , a source-of recreation. The moral habits of the student are thus improved by his being educated in a manner calculated to crea’e a lore of industry and a practical knowledge of the art of agriculture, while it strengthens and invi gorates the rnind, ennobling it to grasp more firmly the various subjects of science and knowledge. 21. These institutions claim superiority over other modes, off the ground that the students, while acquiring an education of a more durable and beneficial character, form a community among themselves, not only during their studies, but during their labors, recreation and hours of leisure and rest. They arc constantly under the supervision of their instructors, (unless their pa rents should reside near the institution, in which case they are allowed to board at home;) therefore the pa rent has the strongest guaranty that they will not be exposed to and ruined by the common vices and dissi pations of the age, while acquiring an education. 3:1. These institutions claim superiority, on the ground of the small expense with which an education can be acquired; thereby opening to the poor those trea sure* of knowledge, which to them have been hitherto locked up. This institution from its great endowment, will afford eminent advantages in this particular. Iu a pecuniary point of view this institution, if lo cated here, will produce great advantages to the county: Ist. The immediate expenditure of the amount of twenty thousand dollars among us, to the farmer, the miller, the merchant and the mechanic. 2J. The annual expenditure of three thousand two hundred do’lars, the interest of the fund appropriated. 31. The board of say sixty students, at seventy-five dollars each, from a distance, which—though going to the officers of the institution, wouid he expended in the town and county —annually four thousand five hundred dollars. 4th. Clothing, and other incidental expenses incur red by the pupils—say seventy-five dollars each annu ally—four thousand five hundred dollars. sth. Say thirty pupils—amount saved to the commu nity in educating them at home at one hundred dollars each annually, three thousand dollars. 6:h. Visits of guardians, parents and friends through the year, annually, say five hundred dollars. 7th. The whole making an amount of thirty-five thousand seven hundred dollars, at a very moderate and reasonable calculation, which will he expended in mo ney and thrown into circulation among this community, and an annual expenditure of fifteen thousand, besides the increased demand for all kinds of supplies, the ad ditional value of real estate, and the increased popula tion, which the location of this institution among us must necessarily bring about. The moral and socinl advantages will ho greatly in creased, the society of the learned who will manage and preside over the institution; the high standing and refinement of those who would locate around such an institution, will improve and reform the society of the town and country. Your committee find that the terms of subscription are exceedingly liberal. One third of the amount which any individual may think proper to subscribe, is paya ble the first day of January. 1830; ami one third annu ally thereafter until the whole nun is discharged. The amount already subscribed, while but little ef fort has been made, is about ten or twelve thousand dollars—almost half of the amount which is called for, and which your committee deem exceedingly flattering and encouraging to those who are engaged in this laudable enterprise. 111 closing this repot t, your committee take the liberty to express their entire belief in the success of this pro ject, and urge upon their fellow citi7.ens to lend their aid fccalously in its behalf. On motion, INI. Fort, Henry Miins, S. CL Leach. Win. Harvey. Rev. C. A. Brown. Francis Dismukes, James Tookc, Robert Carson. Uev.C.Tusher and Jas.

EDWARD W. WRIGIIT. Ch’n. Edward Sec’ry. Correspondence of the Montgomery Advertiser. Tuscaloosa, June 12th, 1837. Tiie two Houses ol’ (he General Assembly were organized this morning. In the Senate, the old officers resumed their respective du ties, under the election of last winter. In the House, Col. Bagby was elected Speaker, with out opposition; G. B. Frierson, principal Clerk; H. L. Martin, assistant, and Tatom, Door-keeper, all of whom were officers at the last session. After some preliminary resolutions, con cerning the government of the two branches, Col. Burke, the Senator from Wilcox county, introduced a series of resolutions upon the embarrassed condition of the country, declar ing a decided opposition lo all stop-laws, but warmly in favor of relief, which were read the first time to day, and will come up for a se cond reading to-morrow. Similar resolutions were introduced in the House by Col. Campbell, who, upon the ofc amTconvincin'*; and, so far as I could judge, seemed to make a deci ded impression upon several, who are known to he opposed to their object. They were made the special order of the day for Wednes day. The Governor’s Message was read shortly after. It breathes, in every word, a spirit of the deepest sympathy for the condition of the country, and an ardent desire for speedy re-, lief. He proposes .to justify the suspension of specie payments by the Banks; to remit all interest accruing against them on account of such suspension ; to give one, two, and three years upon all debts now due, or running to maturity, to those institutions; and to let them endeavor to resume specie payments in a short time, say twelve months, and in the interval to discount liberally, but nc)t pro fusely. He also recomfnends at large, the issu ing of Stateßonds. This scheme lias many supporters, from the intelligent of all parties, and if the system be decided upon, I think it will prove successful. So far as I can learn, there is a general disposition for relief of some kind, though it is difficult to form a plan ac ceptable to all. It is understood here, that Judge Smith, Col. Erwin, Mr. Ellis, and srtme other promi nent members of the House, are opposed to relief; while, on the other hand, Col. Bagby, Col. Campbell, and Mr.Calhoun, are in favor of any plan that will be constitutional in its effects, and beneficial in its operations. So you perceive that party ties in this mailer, are likely to exert hut little influence. There will he some excitement, and some angry words. The elements of discord are at work, and ere the session closes, we will likely have a tempest. The election for United States Senator, it is understood, will take place during the pre sent session. Judge Smith and Governor Clay, are the only individuals spoken of to fill the station A LOOKER ON. Message of the Governor of Virginia. — The Legislature of Virginia convened, ir> extra session, at Richmond, on tlie 12th inst. The message of Governor Campbell is a plain, brief and sensible document. It enters into no disquisition on the causes of the gene ral distress, but recommends to the people “patience, industry and economy; a reliance on themselves, and the exertion of their Stur dy virtues,” as the best assurance of a speedy recovery from their embarrassments, and only sure defence against their recurrence. It dis countenances any thing like a change in the present bahkimf system, as too long inter woven with the policy and course of trade, to he uprooted with safety in Virginia ; pro nounces tlie project of a currency exclusively metalic utterly impracticable, and its agita tion, at the present period, only calculated further to derange the business of the com munity ; and inculcates the importance of maintaining “the credit of the Stale Banks, ns forming under proper regulations ami re forms, the only practical substitute for a Uni ted States Bank,” which institution, under the influence of the prevailing Virginia error, is of course alluded to as an evil. The only recommendation it contains is that ol the pas sage of laws relieving tlie Banks from the disabilities and penalties incurred by their suspension of specie payments, and author izing such suspension, for a limited |>criod. Other matters, it prudently suggests, should he left to Congress, soon to meet, and the regular annual ‘meeting of the Virginia Le gislature. —Charleston Corn ier.

LATEST FROM FLORIDA. A letter from Garev’s to a gentle man in this city, dated June 8, says—“ Ho stilities are about to be re-commenced, I think, from all we can learn—Micauopy and all the Italians have left Tampa Bay, so say private letters from there. Gen. Jesup lias directed Major Whiting at Micanopy, to send word to the people in the neighborhood to leave their planlations and go into safe places.”— Savannah Georgian. A letter from Garey’s Ferry, informs that all the Indians have “left Tampa Bay. Old Micaiiopy had sent in a horse Borrowed from Gen. Jesup, ami S4O borrowed from Cap tain Page.

Indians. —We received last night a letter from a gentleman on the Econfeiia in Wash ington County, about sixty miles from this place. He states that the inhabitants are all in a fort, in hourly expectation of an attack trorn Indians. Their houses and farms are abandoned.—By a gentleman just from Tam pa we are told that the Seminoles refuse to come in, as the government is not able to pay them in Specie for their cattle, &c. and also on account of the measles which have appeared among the troops. These unfore seen embarrassments to Gen. Jesup, are about as formidable as the snows of Russia to Bonaparte. He has done till that zeal and industry, and prudence could accomplish,and merits success if he does not meet it. New Ort.eans, June 10. Indian Movement. —The brig Angora from Tamp Bay last evening, brings intelli gence from that place to the 7th inst.—The commander at that post, notwithstanding die strict military orders which have been promulgated and apparently enforced, has again been sadly deceived by die “ red skins nearly two hundred of whom, with Micanopy at their head having taken leave of their guardians, the U. S. Troops, on the 3d inst.’ carrying with them nearly double rations, (which they cunningly drew in the morning) and all the amunilion and arms which they were daily permitted to use for the purpose of hunting. A party of cav alry was despatched in search of the runa ways, who, after travelling twenty miles into the interior, returned without discover ing any trace of the fuaj/tives. It is said that Powell lias been tfie prime mover of this operation, and if such he the fact, and we can see no reason to doubt it, a few more millions will be expended in an arduous and unptofitable warfare, More these hardy and stern sons of the forest can be induced to abandon their old hunting grounds. Bulletin From the Memphis Inquirer. May 20. Duel. —lt is with painful feelings that we announce the fatal termination of a duel be tween two of our citizens, Mr. VYm. T. Gholson and Mr. Albert Jackson, on Mon day morning last, on the Arkansas shore of the Mississippi. The original cause of this lamentable result, was of a very trifling na ture—but each feeling himself aggrieved, and unwilling to make satilactorv concessions, they crossed Ihe river on Monday morning to settle the grievances by killing each other. The scene is represented as being one of the coolest determination—one of the least excitement among the duellists that can per haps he contemplated. They Avere stationed at thirty feet distance, each holding his pis tol by his side, standing in the natural posi tion to fire. ‘Are you ready—fire—one, two, three, four, five” were the words, during the utterance of which, they were to fire. Each raised his pistol—and “at the, word three,’ they fired simultaneously—making but one report. Mr. Jackson dropped his pistol, and gave an involuntary ‘witch—the hall of his adversary having passed through his ‘.hitly, ‘jWjMi Ml’, eyes fixed upon his adversary, lor a moment—turning towards his surgeon, he advanced if,res or four paces with a smile on his countenance, his arm placed a-kimbo, (a favorite position,) when he fell dead in his surgeon’s arms, without speaking; his antagonist’s ball hav ing passed through his heart. Air. Jackson is not considered in danger, although had the ball struck one inch nearer the spine, it would have terminated fatally. The parties retired, satisfied that all had ended “most honorably”—according to the rule of genteel murder. A gentleman present at the unfortunate meeting, who has witness ed many similar ones, remarked that it sur passed all description of bravery—each de tenriined and satified” that lie should kill his antagonist—both having declared that tliev should strike, the one exactly where lie did —the other within one half of ail inch. We have given the particulars, not be cause the hnrrjtilc detail is pleasan! to us, nor lo gratify public curiosity, but to correct a thousand misstatements which we lound per vading a mourning pulilic. A general gloom fills our community, though tlri measures were taken to prevent ilie catastrophe. We even doubt the expe diency of such a course having been taken. Bails nor bonds wiiuld have healed the ani mosities rankling in such liosoms.—A street encounter would undoubtedly have been the result, in which probably would have fallen several of the friends of each party, Mr. Gholson was our friend, From one of the first fatuities in Virginia, inheriting too deeply that tenacious love of honor so sus ceptible of injury, and willing to give honor able redress to others, lie has litllen in the prime of manhood, a victim of human weak ness. A more generous hearted, honorable man we never knew than William T.
