letter ofjte evening of |he 16tb?in which it
was stated that nothing was certain in relation
to the new ministry except that Mole was

seems, was. a mSitake. There was a violent

^Riejjapers were discussing the length of the
^Juration of the new ministry, the doctrinaries
predicting a brief reign. Ministers have
however already gained one point in the case
of the allowances to the Duke of Orleans on
&a approaching marriage. The committee,
five oat of nine being ministerial, have voted
francs to be' added to the millions

parties agree that Marshal^CIausel has
JSSken but little by those proceedings, and
'UMty thiuk that the late ministry have fared '
'HO better. * The Constantme expedition, in
appears to have been most grossly
mismanaged on all sides? negiected by the

'tothe chamber that the marshal, after making j
'^is Sacculation?, had sent an aid-de-camp to j
?Paris to demand an additional force of 6001'
men, without which he declared it would have j
been unsafe to proceed against Constantine. ? j
The ministry who saw in this requsition a new
?"necessity for asking 9,000,000f from the chain -
^>e*? were in no humor to encounter thai as
sembly with such a request, and absolutely j
declined acciding to it. Yet with a full j
knowledge of the refusal, and notwithstadding
$H8 former calculations, the marshal proceeded
with the enterprise, and met with ill-success
which is so well known."

There is nothing in ihe French Journals to !

mission into England, free of duty, of four j
million copies of Temperance Tracts from j
New- York. It now appears that the Lords of j
the Treasury, with whom the confirmation
of the Chancellor's decision rested, did not
feel themselves justified in acceding to the
Chancellor's recommendation, on the ground
of such a proceeding- forming a most incon^
venient precedent. On thissubject an English
writer remarks. ? The issue cf the affair is
much to be regretted, for while the government
of Canada, impressed with the beneficial con
sequences of their circulation admit the te i
perance publications from the United States
free of duty? and while in England the gov
ernment admit all the most costly foreign
-jppffcs presented to the British Museum also
? free of duty ? the same privilage is here denied
to one ofthe most magnificent, most benevo
lent and most disinterested gifts ever profered j

whole population of another.

Mutiny in the Texas Camp. ? The New
Orleans correspondent of the New York
Courier & Enquirer, writes under date of May
the I$th, as follows;
''The Texan volunteers cantoned at the
camp upon La Baca, or Navidad, have been
very much dissatisfied at the state of inaction
in which they have been kept for the last
twelve months, and feif very anxious either to
advance into .Mexico, or obtain their discharge.
The Texas army is daily increasing in numv
bers, by the constant arrival of volunteers, and
amounts now to 2,400 men, m the best order
and discipline; but the government is laboring
under great difficulties tokeeptheni together.
? In fact, the soldiers be^in to suffer from the
i want of provisions, and under such circum- I
j stances, no wonder the following occurrence
! has taken place :
On tne 5th ultimo, some unwillingness was
! manifested bv a number of tbe volunte. :3 to
attend to their duties, on the pretence that
they were refused what government had pro
mised therm On the following day several
of them refused to assemble on parade, and
were consequently put under guard, and con
fined in irons, by order, as it reported, of the
commanding General, A. Sidney Johnston. ?
| The same night, about five hundred men,
| armed with muskets and bayonets, proceeded
| to the guard tent, and demanded of the Cap
) tain of the guard the immediate release of the
I prisoners; he refusing to grant this, the muti
| neers entered the tent and knocked ofF the
j irons of the men confined there. Communis
cation of this inovemeut was quickly conveyed
? to General Johnson, who was stili confined to
| his tent, but in despite ot his wound, he niount
j ed his horse, rode to the artillerv corps, and
i ordered a parade of the various compares. ?
j The cannons were ioaded with grape and can
! nister, and drawn up so as to rake the whole
| line of the mutineers. General Johnson tlren
I unhesitatingly rode up, ordering thera toground
j their arras immediately, or 10 receive the dis
j charge of the artillery. The mutineers find
j mg their situation rather unpleasant, cast a
look at the artiJlerymen and obeyed the order
without murmuring. The ringleaders (about
twenty in nnmber) were then secured and put
; in irons? the remainder dispersed to their
! quarters, and order and discipline were restor
! ed irvrhe camp. General Johnson seldom
i leaves ins tent, his wound not permitting it.
lie has written to the Secretary of War, either
j to send him officers to assist in the command,
I or to to appoint another commander; but by
this time, Gen. Felix Houston must have re
; turned to the army.
If I am to believe my correspondent at
i Velasco, the Texan army was decidedly to
effect a movement to Matamoras, and if we
may rely on tins information, General Houston
must ?have aitered ]his opinion, for 1 know
he was strongly opposed to assuming the
offensive. Now it appears that Colonel
Weymouth arrived at Velasco from head
quarters on the 14th mst. and was purchasing
there clothes and provisions for tbe army. ?
Two thousand head of oxen had been procur
ed, besides a great number of horses and mules
for the transportation of the artillery and j
baggage. Colonel Wey mouth told various j
persons at Velasco, that preparations were
making at the camp to march to Matamoras."
St. Augustine. June 1.
Our Indian. Affairs. ? Since our last, affairs
have assumed a more serious aspect, and ?ve
regret to state that the prospects of the ter>
mination of our '? pretty little war are more
gloomy than ever. An express arrived here
on Saturday from Fort Mellen, the purport of
which we understand to be, that a number of
negroes had comgjn at that post, who state
that the Indians had held a meeting, deposed
Micanopy, and elected Sam Jones their prin
cipal chief. They further state that at the
next new moon the Ind ans would commence
open hostilities. This is a negro story, and in
consequeoc ? some are inclined to doubt it ;
almost every negro story, however during the
war, has ultimately proved true, and in confir
mation of this it seems to be pretty generally
admitted that the Indians have tacitly refused
to emigrate, at least until fall, and that the
war is far from being terminated.
These negroes, it is said, give some partic^
ulars of the late battle at Fort Mellen. They
state that they attacked the fort with 600 war
riors, and soon after their repulse they were
re- in forced with 300 more, and were preparing
for another onset when they received informa
tion of the cessation of hostilities.
The posts of Voluisa and Fort Mellen are
becoming unhealthy, and all the forces, except
a sergeant's guard, to be relieved from Pico>
late every ten days, and one company of Creek 8,
have been withdrawn from Volusia. The post
at Lake Monroe will be continued.
Four companies of troops are now at Pico
lata.
The steam boat Charleston touched at Pico
la: a yesterday at 2 P. M. from Fort Mellen; it
is stated that a considerable number of Indians
are in the neighbourhood of that post who
daily come in and receive rations, and go out
again.
The steam boat Florida, arrived yesterday
from Mosquito, whi;her she had gone to con
vey Capt. Webster's company of Artillery, to
reestablish the post at New Smyrna. There
were no appearance to indicate that the place
had been visited by Indians since the post was
broken up. Another company has been order
ed down there.
An express arrived this morning from Tam
pa, the contents of which are reported to be
of an unfavorable nature It reported and
confidently believed that the Indians have left
their camp and returned into the nation.
These reports seem to confirm each other.?
We have now but little hope that the war will
be ended by negociation. The Indians have
[ been enabled to possess themselves of much
| information and are doubtless emboldened by
! their intercourse. If a resort to arms again
becomes necessary, we apprehend much bloody
work. ? Herald.
We aresory to learn that all the militia has
been discharged with the exception of one
; mounted company here, one at Jacksonville,
and one at Newnansville. The information
that we have received is tar from rendering it
certain that the war is yet over ? indeed, it
spet,7s to be admitted at all hands that the In
dians wi.1) not leave the country this summer.
We must bei.'eve that the powers that behave
more favorable in information than has been
communicated generally, or we cannot
that this step would have been taken, which
' appears to us premature.
j We have obiained a copy of the^ order os
: General Hernandez, discharging iJie Companief
! (except Hanson's) east of the St. Johns.
Since the discharge of the militia east of the
St. Johric public rumor seems to give an aspect
to our Indians d.fficulties, which shews the
necessity of bring prepared lor and maintain
! ing a strong defensive position. It is generally
' believed that the Indians will not emigrate this
j summer, and that before they do so a resort to
1 arms will a^ain become neces-arv.
There is bu one company of U. S. troops
i stationed here and in the event ot open hostil
ities this force is liable to be called into the
field and while here it is not more than sufficient
to protect public property, hence the necessity
of a force upon which we can depend. This
? force ought to be raised amonjjts our own
! citizens for the protection of the frontiers, and
j this duty we have the authority ot Gen. Jesup
j in saying is all that can be expected of them.
We conceive it to be necessary that every
man, able to doinililary duty in any way should
be mustered into service, and held to act ac
cording to circumstances. No reliance can
be placed in the regular troops at present, be
cause we of Florida know full well that they
cannot maintain their positions during the
autumnal months; and we therefore call the
attention- of our citizens and the public author
ities to unite at once in adopting measures of
self defence; and there is no doubt but that
through out Governor, the most efficient mea
sures will be adopted. ? Jdid.
Latest from Florida ? More Murders . ? A
letter received in this city by the John Stoney,
from Garey's Ferry, says that on Monday last
some teamsters arrived at that place and report
that a baggage train returning from Fort Mel
lon to Tampa Bay, had been attacked by a bo
dy of Indians and the wagon master, (one of
the late South Carolina militia) was killed, with
two teamsters, and some inhabitants in the
naighborhood, who had returned to their plan
tations, supj osing the war was at an end.
When will the Banks Resume ? ? Two things
have caused the suspension, v/z: a heavy for
eign debt, which urged the exportation of spe- J
cie, and a distrust of all credit at home. Both ,
th^se it is plain, must be thoroughly removed
before specie payments can be resumed. The
first can only be accomplished by paying
our foreign debts honorably, fairly and f'.lly,
except where the inability of individual deb-'
tors prevent. The second can only be accom
plished by the general liquidation of all debts
at home and abroad. This can only be effect
ed by the products of agriculture ; for it is the
great agricultural regions, on which the ulti
mate indebtedness rests. The tide must have
a thorough reflux back from the point to which
it has gone to the point whence it came. All
these settlements will, in our humble judg
men^require at least two^rops. The present
crop of cotton, the greatest of all articles,selfs
for but half price. The next will, in all pro
bability, also sell low; and it takes a long time,
with low "prices, to pay the debts contracted
when prices are high. ? Journal of Commerce.

SATURDAY. JUXE 10, 1837.
NEWS.
We copy accounts from Europe, up to Hie
25th of April. The news is decidedly more
favourable than was expected.
See the late accounts from Florida, by
which it seems there is some cause to appre*?
hend that the Indians have been humbugging
General Jesup, and nQW that nis army is di
minished and the sickly season beginning, are
about to re commence hostilities.
Accounts from Texas, of the 24th u't. state
that the country was qu it and prosperous,
and multitudes of emigrants arriving from the
United States. A resolution had passed the
Senate, appointing a minister to the Court of
Great Britain, to solicit the recognition of
their independence by that Government
Santa Anna has publithed a long proclama
tion, giving the history of his adventures in
Texas.
Specie is at 20 per cent, premium in New
Orleans.
There is a rumour that the Secretary of the
Navy has made application to the Bank of the
United States, to be permitted to deposite
certain large sums in possession of that de
partment of the government. Mr. Biddie's
answer was, " with pleasure." Another ver
sion is, that the Secretary has applied to that
Bank for a loan of $400,000. This seems tne*
more probable.
Henry L. Pinckney has been nominated for
the office of Mayor of Charleston, at thn next
election ? Thomas II. Bennett, for the State
Senate, in place of Joel R. Poinsett ? Edward
H. Edwards, tor the same;.
We are informed verbally that several cas^s
of Cholera have occurred in Charleston. As
the newspapers are silent on the subject, it is
probable that some milder complaint was mis
taken for it.
It is said that the purpose of Mr. Ambassa.
dor Cass, in hia trip to Constantinople, is to
obtain from the Porte the cession of a port in
the Mediterranean.
Commissioners have been appointed by the
government of Texas to proceed to the United
States for the purpose of procuring a loan of
$5,000,000. They have cbosen the wrong
time for.such an operation.
Of the Deposite Banks, the doors of four or
five are already closed. Mr. Woodbury will
have a charming Report to make to the
next Congress.
Some admirer of modest merit has present
ed Amos Kendall with a suit of clothes. It
ought, to have been made of the paper of bro
ken banks.
Shipwrecks . ? By Lloyd's Shipping List it
appears that from 1793 to 1829, (being a pe
riod of 36 years,) the average number of
ships wrecked was 857 annually. In the lat
ter year they exceeded 800 ; and they are be
lieved to have increased since that time.
More than 2,000 seamen annually perish thus
in the mighty deep!
The frigate Constellation and several sloops
of war, under command of Commodore Dallas,
have taken station on the coasl of Mexico.
New York. ? Mexican dollars 8? to 9j pre
mium ; sovereigns $5 27 ; American gold 7^
to 8? premium; American half dollars, 6^ to
7 premium.
A private express mail has been established
between N. York and Boston, and out-travels
that, of the Government.
Were not the Congress of the United States
such a body as it at present is, we would al
most admire the courage of the administration,
in remaining, after late events, at the seat of
Government, until the next assembling of the
Representatives of the People. They migh*
naturally be expected to fty to the wilderness
of the Rocky Mountains, or " to the desert*
of Arabia,'' to hide themselves from the popu
lar contempt and vengeance.
So far, however, from any manifestation of
shame or repentance, for the incalculable ca
lamities which they have inflicted upon the
country, it appears that the meeting of Con.
gress is to be the signal for new "Experi
ments." Hints and suggestions are beginning
to be thrown out by the governmjnt organ and
its followers, from which it may be gathered
that the Administration meditate fresh pro
jects, more insane than any they have vet at
tempted. They say that the -Government can
manage its own collect'ons and disbursements,
?
without ihe agency of any bank or banks at all
? that through* the collectors of the revenue it
?
can force the general payment of specie ? that
its drafts on those collectors will answer all
the purposes of remittances, &c.
The anu unt of this scheme is, that the Ad
ministration itself would be an immense brc. j
ker's office ? over)' collector of the revenue in
the United States would br a sort of branch
bank, under the direction of the Secretary of
the Treasury. The foolish and fatal measures
by which already the Government has been
made bankrupt and the people beggared
are harm'ess and constitutional, compared to
this.
The H iimb agger Humbugged. ? A corres
pondence has lately been published, in various
" Democratic Republican" journals, with con.
siderabie pomp, purporting to be between "se
veral highly respectable gentleman of Louis,
ville," and Thor.ias II. Benton. The subject
was the next Presidency, the offep of which
theExpunger most magnanimously declines,
provided Mr. Van Bureu so conducts himself,
during the present term, as to meet the appro,
bation of the party. It since appears that the
letter of nomination, received and answered in
such solemn part, and published, with the re
ply, for his own glorification, by the Expun^
ger, was a hoax, perpetrated by a boy of Lou
isville, who signed to it the names of several !
' ? I
of his comrades. -
In a few days the States will be entitled to
another instalment of the surplus revenue.
Will it be forthcoming? And in what?
A Treasury draft for two hundred dollars,
was latelv protested. la the Government re
ally so miserably bankrupt that it cannot pay
such a sum as that ?
The Globe says that "the government is not
bankrupt ? it pays specie, or its equivalent,
when asked, whenever it is able
The behaviour of the government is mon?
strous. It will receive nothing but specie for
the debts due to it ? it pays, for its debts.no! h
ing but depreciated paper money. It can
scarcely command a single silver dollar. Its
specie funds have all gone to the benefit of
the deposite banks, which snbstitu'e for them
their . own irredeemable paper.
Tbe^ Globe, meanwhile, is clamoring about
th ? "supremacy of the laws," and calling
upon all good citizens to support them. How
does the government itself perform its own
sacred duty of. executing the laws? Why,
by exacting the literal fulfilment of those
laws which operate to the advantage of
itself and the class that it favors, and
trampling upon all those which operate only
to the advantage of the people.
Bnt it is said that in the collection of
money due the government, the Secretary of
the Treasury has no discretion ; he is required
by law to receive only specie. True ; bufc|
do not the same laws which require the 1
government to receive specie, require the
it to pay specie? Is there one law fori
the government when it is creditor, and a
different one when it is a debtor ?
If the government does not pay specie,
says the Globe, it is because it is not able ?
it cannot get it ? the thing is impracticable.
Why, then, does it require its debtors to per
form impracticabilities? Those who owe it,
must pay specie, possible or not possible. It
demands that every individual citizen who.
happens to be in its debt, shall do what the
United States itself is not able toaccomp ish ! i
If the government cannot pay speck, com
mon honesty requires that they should come
as near it as they can. They are cheating j
their creditors by not making good the dis
count on their depreciated paper. To do that,
at least, is perfectly in their power. ' ,
The conduct of the government, in these
matters, is shewn by such incidents as the
following.
From the Commercial. Advertiser ,
A Fact. ? There are soiaethtng like seven hun
dred workmen employed in the Navy Yard in Phil
adelphia. Last week they demanded specie in
payment of wages ? with which demand the Gov
ernment did not comply. On the contrary, instruc
tions were received, that if th^ laborers would not
receive their pay in bank notes, they should be im
mediately discharged in a body, and the yard be
closed. Of course they were obliged to come to
the terms of the government.
From the Boston Atlas.
The Paymaster at this station has been in the
habit of paying the U. S troops partly in Bills of the
Pets, and partly in coin ; and drew accordingly in
such a manner as would enable him to effect this
object When the Banks suspended, he wrote to
the cashier of the Commonwealth Bank to know if
the arrangement could be continued. To this the
cashier replied, that he would be compelled to pay
the Government drafts in the common currencyof the
thereupon the Paymaster wrote to the Paymas
ter-General for instructions. In reply, he was in
formed that he should continue to pay the troops in
paper, and that such as were not satisfied with this
.arrangement might wait till the Banks shoulo

Columbia , 8th June, 1837.
Mr. Johnston,
1 regret that the card of inquiry, directed
to me in your last, should have appeared at
this time, however much I must acknowledge
myself complimented by the request. The
Congressional Election do's not occur till Oc
tober, '38, and it would be more agreeable to
me to defer a reply, than seem lo lorestal sup
port by a premature assent, or be urged upon
excuses unpleasant to myself and unsatisfac
tory to others, to cover a refusal. The last 1
desire most especially to avoid. Betides, re
lations of kindness, between myself and the
incumbeut, (Gen. Griffin,) have, as yet, existed
without interruption, and the security felt by
his constituents, and our common friends,
in the Tightness of his views, would incline
i,*)e to suspect, that I am more indebted for
this compliment to a belief that has prevailed
that he would decline a re-election, than to a
wish by any one that he should be superseded.

Training Statolci
THE undesigned proposes opening ai public
Training Stable, on the 1st day of August, at
the Columbia Race Cburse, where gentlemen .hav
ing promising colts, will have an opportunityst a
moderate expense, of testing then1 qualities : There
is no doubt many a gem ui this and. our fisted States
doomed to obscurity, or perhaps to. wear ihe CoUar%
who by this means might be brought into. public no
tice and fashionable life, and? what, is ^.more "np
into" a neat ten thousand in the pockets ojf its own
er. Man.{ a thorough bred aniiqaTi? sacrificed, from
the difficulty^ uf^ascertaining its real value, by a
regular training.'
After a horee has received the common walking
exercise, which any one can^iveJiim, for two week>;
seventy days will leU the least, so far as to
point out the propriety of continuing or training liBT
out. _e . ?; ? m
A horse for training, should b? sent in g6bd order ?
in full strength antl vigour, with son* thing to work
on, but Jiot hog fat. 'i'he subscriber cannot be bet
ter understood in this particular, than by-saying" a
gendeman should send his horse in Bach conditiomas '
he would have it for travelling, sound-in heahh^and
firm in flesh- When 100 low in flesh* the boreisto&'
weakt undergo tlie necessary exercise.
The terms, or cost of training, will depend?ta*if*'
cumstances. With the horse there .shoakhHfc lent^
unable bodied man or boy, to rub , and a boy to rid^,
of sufficient strength to pull a horse^ and of weight*
propur.ioned to the age of the animal^-fof a three
year old 90 lbs, 4 years 102 lbs, i. yearu ]J2 lbs, 6
years 1 21 lbs, aged 126 lbs ; for fillies and geldings
three pounds less ; a Training Saddle, Bridle, Mar
tingale, Circingle, lioller, two Blankets, two Hoods,
a set of warm Woollen Ck>ttpng<*:and: two sets Of
Linen or Cotton, a Curry Comb, Brush, Pick, Boek*
et, Halter, &c. complete. All these things being
furnished, the subscriber will supply the .provisions
for 1 he horse and boy, together with . his personal
services and the use of his stables, fitter &c. at $2 a
day. If provisions are furnished by the owder, the
entire charge will be $50.
The clo/hing may be made under my directions
by the boys at the stable if the rough material be
sent. The entire Outfit will cost in this way about
842, and will last, if taken care of) five years If
the rubber and rider are not sent, they will have
to be hired, probably at a higher cost than they
could be furnished by the owners
Centlemen wishing to send their horses to be
trained, will b ? good enough to drop me a line when
they will'send. and how many, that their stalls may
be put in readiness. Every possible care and atten
tion will be given, but no liability incurred for acci
dents. When a horse is ready 10 make a trial, the
owner will have notice, that he may witness his per
formance, or depuie some friend to do so.
The following gentlemen in this State, Georgia"
and Virginia, have been kind enough to offer their
names as references, both in regard to the qualifica
tions and integrity of the subscriber. In South
Carolina, Col. Wade Hampton, B. F. Taylor, J.
McLean ; in Georgia, Capt- . J? J Harrison, in Vir
ginia, Col. W. R. Johnson and J. Puckei.
