Tho Buffalo Commercial Advertiser states that the First National Bank of that city bas, in a period of four years, accumulated a surplus groat or than its original capital, and, without impairing Uiin snrnluB. it uaid its proprietors a dividend foi Hie past year of 60 par cent.

At both games, it will be seen, tho chances are greatly against tho player. The Pall Malt (Eng.) Gazette says that if it ii true now as formerly that American sea captalne are cruel, this consideration is moro than counter balanced, by bolter pay and botter food which they receive, "for that America beats us in the compe tition fov crows admits of no dispute." The Now Orleans Times says as regards thc measures for raising sugar and cotton the coming year, tho prospects are far from encouraging. Money and means, otherwise called capital oud advances, oro wanting. The new Oovomoi-Qonoral of Canada, Lord NAAS, ia descended from a branch of tho illustrious house of CLANBICAUDE, and consequently an Irish peer.

FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 15, 1807. l ill: SPRI.VG TltADE. Wo linvo reached tho middle of February, and tho plcaHont dave of Spring nro upon us; tho limo of all tho year tho moat pleasant in our climntc; when tho occasional and Bifid rigors of Winter oro past, nnd ero yet tho opprossivo honl of tho Sun's vertical rays gives our ntmonphcro a tropical char aclcr. , Tho trees arc in bloou, tho gardens full of fragrance, and r- plendont in their wealth of Aural bonuty. Our parks and public promena JOH onco moro aro clad with virgin green. Tho hirds nro warbling their lenton carrols; in short, nntuio is gay, and all hor creatures glad, rejoicing in their youth and bonvty. lliis is thc season wV.i many pf our frionds from tho interior usually v : >it our city. Tho Races, in tho bright and goldri. chtya of voro, attracted many tranger to tho city. Tliero was a linn Oouriahiug Thealic also, now no moro, thal exer cised no small infiuonco in bringing strangers to Charleston. Wo aro now deprived of thoi>o ex traneous nttrnclions, hut tho pleasant climnto still is ours, so tho soft zophyrs of spring, nnd tho ex hilarating breozos wafted in from tho bosom of the broad Atlantic. Our hotels aro excellently fitted np, and oifor to tho traveller all tho moans and appliances wherewith to toko his comfort and onjoy his oasc. Rut Charleston is a grcnt commercial centro tho natural outlot of n largo extent of hack coun try. Tho morchants of this and adjoining States for > earn have como to Charlostou to mubo their purchnses, nnd tho lending houses of our city wcro in business relations with every part of tho South nnd West. Tho sovornl years of Ibo war, and, still moro, tho gonorsl disruption of tho franio work of commerce, as of socioty, consequent upon the disastrous close of otu- war, havo dono much to derango this current of trndc. But our mer chants havo been up and doing. Thoy Bet to work promptly; fino stores wore fitted up; Iorgo nnd well assorted stocks of goods of every description wcro brought hero,and offered nt reasonable rates. Tho railroads have nil been repaired, and nre, many of thom ni least, in better order now than thoy wcro before thc war. Tho rates of freight aro rea nona bio, and ovcry effort is roado, wo havo reason to boliovo, by tho President and Superin tendents of tho several linos of roads radiating hero, to facil talo tho business in ovcry possible way, and wo bare of lato heard but fow complaints on this score. Tliero is now regular communica tion by rail with every part of tho country; and hy steamboat with Savannah, Florida, tho castora and northeastern parts of this Stuto, as woU aa with ull tho leading ports of tho North. Tho ave nues aro all open, and there is every inducement for buyers to como here. Wo huvo importers and jobbers hero iu ovcry lino of trade. Urocerioa, Dry Ooods, Hals, Cloth ier. Fancy Goods, Hardwaro, Straw Goods and MUlincrfV, Saddlery, Drugs, Paints, Boots and Shoos, ooke, Crockery,-in short, every thing that human flesh woild wish to ho heir to, can bo had horo in abundance, and at prices 03 low as thone obtaining in Now York, tho price of freight and insurance alone being added. It ia manifestly theroforo to tho interest of tho country merchant to pnrchaso herc, whore ho ia known ; where ho can como and select his guuaa every monto, or ovcry Ino months, rather than go on to Now York once or Ivrico a year. Tho old credit system, al ways a great curso to tho country, is abolished. Transactions of all kinds, both North and South, nu a rulo, aro for cash. This is found tho best, tho Batest, omi altogether tho most satisfactory method ol transacting business now. Such is tho fluctuation in tho prico of gold, Iho standard of tho circulating medium, that thc credit si stem must of necessity ho entirely incompatible with it ; to say nothing of thu vory unsettled condition of political afiaini, and tho gonoral loss of con fidence, engendorod thereby through ovory circlo of trade, through ovory walk of life. f VI.I.'I, therefore, is tho word; or what ia consid ered equivalent, n ohoit credit with city rccopt anre. On thei r terms goods oro purni] a oil, and on theso thoy must bo sold; and howovcr inconve nient tho evett, m may bo at tho outsot, in the end it will ho found that it works host to all parlies, infinitely to tho advantago of the Jobber, scarcely less BO to the country merchant, and BO likowise to tho rot ail purchaser and final consnmor. It will bo oasy, by following thia plan, at ail limes for each party to toko tho moosuro of his standing. The lom of "bad" and "doubtful debts" will no longor disfigure tho "profit and loss" sido of tho ledgor; and tho consumer will not bo under tho diagreeablo necessity of meditating how to pay for nlml has already beon consumed. Tho old indis criminate credit system woa impolitic, unfair, and ^niquitous,-such as ultimately must prove ruin ous to nny country. Obligations between mor o.l m nt.s and merchants, or morchanU and hankora, are recognized tho world over with scrupulous ox actnosn. But thu moment the merchant enters into any negotiations o this character with an unmorcantilo party, novor mind what his occupa tion or profession, what his position in Bociety, or what his character for honesty or integrity, ho can not foel tho samo confidence and security. This fact is too weU known to need any proof tn farther elucidation. Connu ero i al honesty ia often sneered at by tho moralist; tho poet long ago said: "Honor sinka whoro commerce long provaila." Wo shall not undortako to say there ia no truth in this. But e'er tain ia that Uro merchant only, of all classes of socioty, fools a eacrod obligation to redeem bis plodge to tho vory letter; to moot hia drafts on the very day they faU due. How thia Ia to bo dono, when his debtors do not moko similar exertions, unlosa ho have an exhnnstlosa capital, wo oro at a IOBS to indicate. Let tho merchants then fi om Florida, Goorgia, Alabama, Mississippi, South, and North Carolina, como lo Charleston, in waa their wont in other days, Thoy will find a good market boro for any produce thoy may lah lo bring to inarkot ; and thoy will as heretoforo, find a largo and excellently assorted stock of gooda and merchandise of ovory description, at aa reason aldo rates as thoy can ob tain In Now York, Philadelphia, Boston or Balli moro. Lol thom como,. and try us onco again. Our Merchants, Importers and Jobbers, all expect a largo trade Ulis Ipring, and wo earnestly hopo they may fully rer , o their moat aanguine expecta tions. PHIIJANTHHOPY. Human nature is Tory curious. While it ia Imo that in tho main it ia always nnd overywhore tho nanni, yet it undergoes various changea from Umo to time, tho onuses of which aro still a mystery to tho monta! physiologist. Virtuos and vices par take of tho changea of fashion; and although tho .'rnatio moralist" may, in bia simplicity, think theso standards have long boon, eoltlod, ho would soon find, on oponlng a newspaper or going to CongrouB, that what waa onco thou ht a virtuo, has now bcronin all but disreputable, and what waa formerly hoid vorypropor and highly respecta ble, ia now a "covonant with oin;" an InaUtnUon .rocognizod by Scripture, and, in days not long past, logaliccd In ovory civilized and OhriaUan country, ia now only known aa tho 'sum of all villany.
