The Bank Ue?oumkk is me title of,
a new periodical issued t?y Mr. Edmund ;
Huflin of Petersburg Va. it is to be j
published monthly for six months in ,
pamphlet form, each No. containing 10 ,
pages. The contents \vjII consist chiefly |
of audi articles as the name would indicate
in the present state of public opinion
on the subject of banking. The price
ia 15 for 200 copies of one or more num. j
bers to be directed to one person, or 150 ;
copies to be directed separately. Si will ;
pay for 3 copies ot the series.
' From the fact that the banks of South j
Carolina have been a Die u> maintain specie
payments whilst the other batiks
South of New York so generally refuse to j
redeem their notes, we infer, though we j
are not very conversant with banking op. i
eratioR*, that-there has been hud man- j
agctnent on the part of the present suspended
banks. If Mr. Ru.Fiii can con- ,
tribute toa reform in their man^einent he j
will add to the g.eat obligation* under j
which he has laid the country in the man- 1
Tier in which he has conducted the Farm- |
era' Register.

No one, whether Whig or Iiemocrat, j
-can read the exposition of the President's
1 course in regard to the Bank hill, made |
by Mr. Ewing, in his letter of resignation, :
without feelings of morUticut.on on account
of the deep disgrace winch it brings ;
upon the country. The occurrence will j
urely teach politicians to look ia future ,
to the qualifications of candidates which (
they select for the Vice Presidency, as
well as to the qualifications of candidates
for the Presidency. The country needed
taught wisdom hy experience on }
thy point. Of the several Vice Presidents '
who hove been chosen since the change
? . ^
of tho constitution whicii requires can.
-dictates fur the Presidency and Vice
Presidency to l?e voted for separately,
there have heen only two whose stand- |
ing would warrant their being run for ^
the Presidency by any party. These .
were Mr. Calhotin and Mr. Van Buren.
The Vice Presidency has hitherto been I
considered a mere sinecure which almost t
any body with a head on might fill. <
Cabinet Changes. j
The following members of the Prcsi-, t

Mr. Ewing, Secretary of the Tres'y. ^

Mk. Webster retains hisoflice as Secretary

Crittenden and Ewirgfor resigning, and ?
also the reasons assigned hy Mr. Webster i
for holding on will be found in their sev . |
eral statements which we copy from the |
National Intelligencer into the preceding (
columns. ,
The nomination of Mr. Everett as min j
ister to England was confirmed by the (
Senate, before its adjournment.
The public papers have abounded in i
rumors of tear for the past week. It is l
said that Mr. Fox has instructions from <
his government to demand the immediate <
release of McLeod, and in case of refusal, |
to demand his passports. We cannot, j
however hut hope that there is some mis- <
take in this matter. i
?- ^ ,
The letter of Mr. Bolts, to which Mr. j
Evving refers in his communication to the j
President, was one addressed to a read- (
ingroor.iin Richmond, before the first | f
veto message had been sent in, but after!
it was known that it would he sent. Mr. ! f
Botta severely censured the President for
treachery to his party, and said that the <
Whigs would "head Capt. Tyler" as he
called the President, with another bank
bill, which he would sign but which would
at last prove abortive. A copy of the
letter was surreptitiously obtained and
sent to the President. It soon afterwards
appeared in the Madisonian, a paper de.
voted specially to the support of the Pres.
ident. Mr. Botts afterwards explained
what he meant by heading the Prssident;
which was only that the project of a bill
reported by Mr. Ewing, which Mr. B.
knew the President had sanctioned,
would be passed, and signed; that this
would head him in his march to the
Democrats, who could not take him up
after signing any hank hill; and the bill
when enacted, Mr. B. thought would not !
answer the purposes of tiie country.? |
When the veto message was received, it
indicated what sort of a hill the President
would sign; and then *Mr. B. says th<i
Whigs took up and passed such a bill in
good failit.
Congress adjourned on Monday week.
The captions of the acN passed, which
will be found in another column shew the
business finally done.
Mr. Dawson of Ga. announced to the
House that the personnl difficulty between
Messrs. Wise and Stanly had been
reconciled and that tho parties were restored
to their former friendly relations. ,
Mr. Ingersoll from the committee- to i
whom the matter had been refered reported
the facts, which were substantial- 1
ly the same as stated by Messrs. Wise ,
and Stanly at the time, with the addition, i
that when Mr. Wise invited Mr. Stanly '
out of the hall it was only for the pur- j
pose of making explanation. The report
concluded with resolutions that it be en- j
tered on the journal, as a reprimandthat
every member using insulting Ian- 1
guagc towards another in debate shall '
he fined 8100;?and that if a member
- ? ? wr ?i n l
striKe another in tne rtouse, me .^praKer
shall forthwith submit a motion for his
expulsion.
The previous question was moved by
Mr. Ingersol), but the House did not second
it. An exciting debato then arose'
in which it seemed to be generally agreed
that Mr. Stnnlv did not deserve a repri.
mand, and that the report was vague on
this point. Mr, S. himself made some
manly and appropriate remarks on the
subject, and said he would at once resign,
and appeal to his constituents if repri.
manded. Mr. Wise hoped that Mr.
Stu'i!v would not be censured, and Mr.
? hnr?>rl (hat Mr. W. would not be cen- i
I? ?
suied. He also said that the language J
which first gave xMr. \V. offjiicc was used
in sport and good humor, and without
the remotest design of giving pain or offence.
Various motions were made, one
by Mr. Warren, to expel Mr. Wise; tho
one finally adopted was that the report
be recommitted with instructions that as
Mr. Wise, who made the assault, had
made suitable apology to the House, all
further proceedings in the case he discon.
tinued. This occqrvd on Saturday the

On the same dav, Mr. Calhoun frtfnt t
' * * ' - ' (
the committee on the rules made a repott jvrhich
was ordered to be printed. ^
Among the recent proceedings of. the 1
Senate, is a resolution offered by Mr. Bay- c
trd to rescind the expunging resolution ^
>f 1837, and providing that all future *=
publications of the journals at the time of ''
the expunged resolution shall embrace the jj
said resolution in the same way as if no ^
Drderjpr expunging it had ever been ^
massed. This resolution on motion of Mr. ^
B. wrs laid on the table and he gave no- u
tice that he would-call it up at the next t
lession. , a
Mr. Benton, on the last day of the late a
lession, offered a substitute, declaring \
that the expunging resolution had been ,.c
idopted in conformity with the will of the ?
people expressed in the elections and by' '
legislative instructions ; and that it would *
therefore bo incompatible with the prin- J
:iples of representative government to ^
cpeal the said expunging resolution* e
The Kentucky Murderers.
The reader doubtless remembers the j
langing of two men, Maythe and Couch, j
mine mo iths since in. Kentucky, by a ^
nob composed in part, and led bv intel- j(
igent and highly respectable citizens of |
that state. At a recent sitting of the \
:ourt for the county in which the murders r
kvere committed, the judge in his charge i
o the grand jury dwelt at considerable c
ength on the subject, pointing out thb t
langer, to any community, of a part of *
he people undertaking to execute justice
jpon alledged criminals, under the pre.
ext, or from a conviction, that the whole V
:ommunity, or body politic, had not suffi- J
nently provided for the punishment of .
aarticular offences. He shewed the dan. J
jer of surrendering the administration of ,
:riminal justice in any instance to an ex.
:ited mob, who could not conform to the r
rules which experience had proved to be
icccssiary to the execution of justice J
in criminal jurisprudence; and who, i
jwing to the infirmity and very n
institution of buinnn nature, would 11
b
most certainly, in many instances, J
mize upon and punish the innocent alike t
vith the guilty. He charged the jury t
'earlessly to do their duty without regard f
o the wealth, or standing of the offend. f
;rs, or the difficulty of bringing tliein to J
ustice. He charged that all who were
)resent advising or aiding in the acts t
iomfriitted were guilty and ought to bt; 1
)roseCut'ed. The result was that-bills of J
indictment were found against nine of ^
hose concerned in the execution. c

A meeting of the * Whig members of I

he .Senate, and Messrs. Everett, Kenne- j
iy, Clark, and Rayner, of the House, t
o report at an adjojrned meeting. On ?
Monday the 13th. this committee reported t
in address to the country, on the state ol i
* I
hings growing out of the veto of the
jank bills by the President; their report
was unanimously adopted and 20,000 j
:opies ordered to be printed for circula j
lion. Wc have no room for it this week. ,
iut shall copy it in our next, as a part ot
the history of tjie times, which all of ev.
jry party will wish to sec. The follow,
ng is the concluding part: <

for the Whigs to perforin towards their l
.-v. .?i : ..t.. i ?:
JOiifliry Si.uiua ounspiouuuaty aim pic-ciui- \
nently above all othsrs-rFirst.
A reduction of the Executive
power, by a further limitation of the Veto,
so as to secure obedience to the public
will, as that shall be expressed hy the-immediate
Representatives of the People
find the States, with no other control
than that which is indispensable to avert
hasty or unconstitut onsj legislation.
Bv the adoption of a single term for the
incumbent of the Presidential office. *
By a separation of the Purse from the
Sword, and with that view to place the
appointment of the Head of the Treasury
in Congress; and \ ...
By subjecting the power of dismissal
from office to just restrictions, so as torender
the President amenable for.its ex- <
1
erase.
Second. The establishment by Con- <
gross of a fiscal agent, competent to collect,
safely keep, and disburse the public
moneys, to restore the currency, and to
equalize the exchanges of the country ;
and
Third. The introduction of economy
in the administration of the Government,
and the discontinuance of all sinecures (
and useless offices. t
To the effectuation of these objects <
ought the exertions of the Whigs hereaf- ^
ter to be directed. Those only should be
chosen members of Congress who are I
willing cordially to co-operate in the accomplishment
of them. Instead of '
striking our flag, let it be reared still high- '
er, with a firmer hand, bearing upo 1 its t
folds in rnn<ininiinnfl IaIIpk. mTbr Will J
r ? ,
of the Nation uncontrolled by the i
will of ONE MAN: one Presidbn- i
tialterm, a frugal Government, and i
no sub-Treasury, open or covert, in |
substance or in fact: no Govern, j
mf.nt Rank, but an institution capa- (
hlk of guarding the people's trbasure
and administering to the people's
wants." - .
Rallying under that banner, let us appeal
to that People whose patriotic exer.
tions led to victory in the late glorious 1
struggle. Let ua invoke the actio* of 1
hd Legislative Councils of the sovereign
Mies of this -Union. Instructed by
heir immediate constituents, let them nseiftain
and express the public will in rela. |
i/Jn to these great questions; and espeUilly
let them, within their respective
lonstitutional spheres, exert themselves to
;ive it effect.
Anlnlated by these principles, and
juided by Providence, defeat is impos&i?Ih,
and triumphant success inevitable.?
Ve may confidently hope that vast nutn- ]
era of our fellow.citizens* who have been
atherto separated from us, will unite with

my measure demanded by the welfare of
hevnation, in spite of the interposition
if the power with which any one man
nay. have been accidentally invested.?
disappointed in that, if such should be
>ur lot, there will remain the hope of an
amendment of the constitution, curtailing
he Executive power. And if that should
ail, we have only to recur to the noble
ixample of our ancestors, to recollect the
juty v.e owe ourselves and posterity, and
obear with manly fortitude three years
ongerthe sufferings inflicted during the
ast twelve years by the mal-administraion
of the Executive department of the
jrovefnment. We shall have theconsoation
of reflecting that, in the mean time,
f the President can prevent the attainnent
of all the good which Congress is de
reus to accomplish, Congress may check
>r prevent some of the mischiofs, which
irider a different sta te of majorities in the
iody, he might have the power to impose.
Party papers, on one side, censure and
illify Mr. Ewing for publishing his letter
if resignation, alleging that, in so doing,
le was guilty ot a. breach of confidence
n divulging Cabinet transactions, which
le was in honor bound to keep secret,
ro this charge the National Intelligencer
eph$s as follows:
41 But one moment's reflection will satisfy
very unprejudiced mind that Mr. Ewing's
etter is not justly obnox ou:? to such a charge.
Phe subject to which it re!atts, and the manler
in which it was brought before the Cahi.
fet, divest it of that character. The Bank
till required the co-operation of the Exeeuiive
villi the Legislative power of the Government
o become a law. Comparison of views bewecrv
those branches was desired and had,
r?r the purpose of hsirmonious action. The
irst bill having failed to receive the approval
if the President, an effort was made to aecer
ion his views in relation to a second bill, and
n order to conform. His consultations with
he Cabinet, and his views there expressed,
o which Mr. Ewing alludes, were for the exyesa
purpose of being communicated to Memiers
oif Congress in reference to their action.
Th^y were so communicated, and the passage
if the second bill was the consequence. How,
hen, can it with any justice be said that Mr.
Sw ing improperly difcloses Cabinet councils
vhen he merely 6tates what he bad already
teen requeued to state r*r the information
>f Meuib^ra of Congress, and as the basis of
heir action?
If the President changed his mind in regard
o the second bill.it was not the fault of Mr.
Swing ; and bow could he justify his r*s:gna?
ion, unless he should be able to state to the
\jblic what he had already lieen authorized
>y the President to stare to.Members of Congress?
It was no secret: it was never inended
nor regarded as sucn by the President

For the Fanners' G.iZvtte.
Mr. Editor :?1 desire through the
nedium of your paper to call the attenion
of the Commissioners of Free
Schools, for Chesterfield District to the
Mowing resolution adopted by the Legislature
at its last session.
' Resolved, Bv this Legislature (the
[{ouse of Representatives concurring)t hat
the Commissioners ol' Free Schools, in
he several Districts arid Parishes in the
State, do report to this Legislature at its
lext session, the number of poor children
n their respective Districts and Parishes
ncluding in such enumeration, only such
>oor children as are fit and proper recip.
en ts of the charity of the State, under
:he act of the Legislature of this state
>assed in December 1811 entitled uAn
ict to establish Free Schools throughout
:he staie." "
The ohjtttt of this Resolution, is to define,
(if practicable) some better and more
idvantageous scheme of expending tne
i>.?
Free School fund* and as the appropriation 1
for each District may depend, much, on I
the number of poor Children Within its j
territory: It is therefore importartt that
the Commissioners discharge the duty
enjoined on them with fidelity} otherwise
one District may be deprived of its
just quota from the Free School fund.

From the Charleston Courier. i
Texas.?We have been favored with '
the following extract of a letter from a,1
highly intelligent professional gentleman, (
resident in Texas. The letter is-dated {
Matagorda, (Texas) August 12.
"Our country is slowly advancing; in '
department so much, however, as in her J
agricultural interest. Vast numbers of
slaves, and a great amount of other prop,
perty, have been introduced into the conntry
during the last year mostly by the insolvents,
and bank defaulters of Mississippi,
Alabama, and Louisiana. Indeed,the 1
productive capital of the country has s
been swollen to nn amount five times 1
greater than that of the preceding year. |
Cotton is now growing in interior portions ^
! of the country where it whs not expected i
to be seen in five years. The crop of any 1
former years is likely to be exceeded 1
four times told bv that of the present, fel- ,
though the season has uot been altogether j
favorable.
! "The terms, upon with our Loan has '
j been obtained by Gen Hamilton, are
) here considered ruinous, and the measure
is most decidedly unpopular.
East Florid i, Sept. 6
The news is favorable from Tampa
Bay. The Indians are coining in there 1
daily from all directions and from every ;
hand.
On Thursday last, three citizens wore
killed at Martin's Point, between Micanopv

supposed to belong to A Muck's bund. Of '
this I am doubtful. I

least a dozen persona are wounded, and
two or three killed. A cannon was soon
brought up, loaded with slugs and fired
down Sixth street two or three times, with
what effect cannot now he told. The
