As this is the commencement^ and a very auspicious commencement, of the operations of the Havings Band in this city, .we have deemed it proper, on our own editorial res ponsibility, to detail to the public these interesting particulars. And believing as we do, that this institu tion, if suitably encouraged, will proves a distinguished blessing to the poor and, in its effects, an incalcula ble benefit to the moral state of the community, w e cannot omit again to request our fellow-citizens in general, to urge upon their domestics and poor neighbors, the importance of placing as much as possible of the fruits of their industry economy at compound interest in tlm Havings Bank. BOWLlNG-CiREKN KEN. JUNE 19 The President of tl.e U. Slates and Gen. Jackson, arrived at this place on Thursday evening List.? Learning (hat the Fresideut would be here about that time, several gen tlemen of the town and neighbor hood were deputed to meet the Pre sident and the General at South Union, about 13 miles from here, to welcome their arrival, and to invit< tlicm and their suite to take dinuer the next day in town. We understand, that the Presi dent will be deprived of the oppor tunity of visiting other parts of the state, which he had intended, by the call of public business for his re turn to the Federal city. CHARLESTON, JULY 17. Attempt to Fire the City !?We would urge the necessity, as well as duty, of all the good citizens, to he vigilant at this time, and eudenvor to detect the vile incendiaries, which it is too apparent now infest our city, and whose aim Appear to tie the de struction" of our property by Are. Wednesday morning, about2o'clock, the house situated on the N. E. cor* ner of Church and Ohalitiers* street, occupied by Mr. John Foster, as a grocery, wa9 discovered to be on fire. It appears, from Mr. F's own state ment, that a parcel of combustible matter was put through a small hole in the shop, made for the purpose ol admitting air. The counters and , shelves had already taken tire, and the flames was progressing rapidly, when Mr. Foster, being awake at the time, immediately gave the alarm, and succeeded in checking the flames. | .Extract of a letter to the editor oj the Host on Daily Advertiser* dated Port of Spain, Trinidad, May 17. w I. have the satisfaction to send you a file of the Corren cjel Orinoco, in Spanish, from which you may extract much novel information rela tive to Venezuela. In three of the numbers you will find thetMamous speech delivered at the installation! of the second Congres. It is worthy of perusal., I sincerely wish I had time to translate it. You will also find an article in number ?, enti tled North America, which is a well written invective against President , Monroe, with respect to the conquest of Amelia Island. Its author is Mr. German Kosclo, a member of the Congress. He resided many years in the U. States, and is a man of eminent talents, and a profound politician. *k I have also the pleasure to trails-: mit to von a file of our miserable in-) ? i land Gazettes. The actual state of political a flairs nnd military move ments is as ixrttows: The semmt CotigiifSh has been recently installed at Augustura, as you will see hy the papers. I he Patriot army, under) the command of General Bolivar, is on the left bank of the river Apurita, and near the enemy. The van guards of the two armies have recent-; ly had several skirmishes, iu which, the Patriots were successful. " The independent Gen. Paez has bnder his command a well disciplin ed cavalry ; we wait with impatience for favorable intelligence from that quarter. All the English forces, who have lately arrived from Eng land to aid the Patriot cause, have concentrated at the island of Alar garetta* iu number 2000* under the command of Colonel English and Major Ursler, and were to have landed at Laguira, in order to make a decent upon the Caraccass, w hich is left unprotected, hy the absence of Morillo's army. The ex|>edition has already sailed from Margaretta, and we are in daily expectation of receiving the glorious news of th< fall of Cararcas. " While on another quarter, thr city of Ctimana is besieged both by land and sea, hy the military am naval forces of General Bermudas and Admiral Brion. Cumana uius fall. Barcelona is unprotected, am will therefore meet the same fate with Ciiiiiana. CJuiria, Malhurin,Cu uiauaco, ami the extensive plains o ihe interior, are in [>ossessiou of th* Patriots; EVery thing lias a ver\ ttatteilng appearance. The arms o freedom and independence must tri um ,.h. T he New World must be free and independent from north to south. The news from New Grauada is also very flatting.". CAMDEN. THUW3DAY, JULY Z%, 1811>. At a meeting of the citizens of Camden on the 5tli instant, the following Gentlemen were appointed to officiate in celebrating the Fourth of July, 18.20. Edward C.

THE COMET. *Ve regret that the state of the at mosphere has prevented our making any accurate observations on the Comet, whose appearance we no ticed hi our last number. Its decli nation on Tuesday evening, at 0 o'clock, w as about 50? 31/ N. and its Right assention, 118?.~\V hen view ed through the telescope, the nucleus appeared like a rude mass of matter, illuminated with a pale dusky light. From the appareut diminution of its splendor, since we first saw it, we believe it to be receding from the sun, and will therefore probably disap pear, before we shall be able to de termine the situatiou of its nodes, or the inclination of its orbit to the eclip tic. , It rises about tliree o'clock in the morning, iu the North Eastern part of the horizon, when it may pjp sibly be seen more distinctly, and shine in greater splendor than in the evening.?Columbia Gazette July20. Tvco Comets.?A Writer in the National Intelligencer affirms there are two Comets visible at present. He says?" WboftTOr may have the curiosity to see them, can by rising early or sitting up late, be gratified with a sight of both, tbe same night. [ was at first inclined to believe them to be one and the same thing; but ii|M>n observation, I discovered that Ihe one to the eastward appeared above tbe horizon in a little more than four hours after tbe one to the westward *unk below it. On the 5th 'if July, about 15 minutes after 2 .('clock, A. M. one appeared al>ov? iho horizon in about an K. N. K dirocton ; and at 40 minutes afler 9 o'clock P. M. the other sunk below' it, in a W. N. W. direction. SPANISH TREATY. Captain Ripley arrived at Boston, 47 days from i'adiz. states that the treaty ceding the Floridas to the U. Slates, had heen ratit^d; and that Lt. Read, was to sail with it for this country on the 1st of June. Captt.in Rumney, arrived at Al exandria, in 32 davs from Gihralter, brings intelligence that it was re ported at that place, " The treaty with Spain was not signed ou the 26th of May. The London Courier of May 28, announces the arrival of Mr. Forsyth at Madrid on the 14th of the same month. The circumstance induces the Editor of the New-York Even ing Post to think it evident the treaty was not signed at the time capt. Ripley left Cadiz^ That H ttill be signed, is morally certain. Spain, in her present crippled and paraliz ed condition, will not dare to tem porise with the United States. Doubtless Ferdinand has read w ith attention the following declaration of Mr. Secretary Adams!?"If the necessity of the case should again compel the United States to take possession of the Spanish forts and places in Florida, declare, with the candor and frankness that becomes us, that another'Unconditional resto ration must not he expected." The subsequent article is from the Washington City Gazette. We have referred to the Alexandria ship news for the arrival mentioned below, and which, if correct, must bring ac counts 17 days later, and might be relied otr as authentic?but it ap pears there Is no arrival f}*cttn Cadiz in the marine list of that place. Probably it is the arrival from Gib raltar in 32 days which the Editor ha* reference to. s THE SPANISH TREATY. By a vessel arrived this morning at Alexandria, 30 days from Cadiz, we learn that the .treaty with Spain was not ratified; and it was confi* itently asserted there, that it would not Ih\ British influence Was said to be operating to prevent it. The vessel w hicii carried out our minister, was still detaiued, from which some American geutlemen at Cadiz thought favorably of the results. " From -this however, we may draw a different conclusion, and that Mr. Forsyth was detaiuing her to return immediately."? Fed* Hep. MARRIED ?On Tuesday evening last, by the Hev.
