"the gain of others is not necessarily our ' v loss, but on tlio contrary, our advantage." t ? ?[Sec Lite of Burke by IVior and M'B'sj > letter to Burke.] Thus it is, that of late I i years the efforts of Charleston have beendi- j ( rected to the injury of her neighbors.

Grampus, at sen, dated the 11 th j ult., published iu the Xew Orleans Cominor-; c;al Bulletin, of the 22d ult., states that by I "an act of the Mexican Congress, received . f at Tampico, on the 2Stli May, it was decried j U? that the Government would not accede to any act or treaty made by Santa Anna du- j Ting bis imprisonment in Texas, that every * state in the republic should furnish forthwith ' one-fourtli hor forces, to be equipped and j marched as soon as possible to Matamoras,J and that all flags throughout the republic i should be worn at half-mast, during tlic imprisonment of the President. The same letter further states that on the 1st June intelligence was received that all the ports of the republic had been closed against the sail-1 ing of all merchant vessels, and against all \ communication whatever with vessels of; war, this last act being understood as par- | ticularly directed against the United States. . against which there appears to be the most I bitter animosity. Most of the foreigners in j Tampico are in fear for their lives, as threats ( are publicly made of butchering them and robbing their houses, should Santa Anna j be put to death. NMarlikc preparations were in progress in every direction, and it was j currently said that 17,000 men were to ' march against Texas, some of whom were, on their march for head quarters at Mala .1 4 Ai moras. It is not probable tnai ui< y can raise that number bv 1 or 5000, nor even tha% but by moans of taking by force farm-' ers aixJ nuilc drivers wherever they can be found. President Corro promises to sell the cruoi.ixcs from the churches, if necessary, to carry on tiic war, and a desperate j ( struggle will b ; made to regain Texas. A communication in the N. O. Bee, dated Taninico, June 10th. states that early in the j month of June the lT. S. vessels Jefferson. ( Grampus and Warren were refused permis sion, by the commandant at that place to j ( communicate with the consul, and that their i boats were interdicted from coming further j, than the fort at the Bar, on the ground that j, the port was closed, and that the govern-j ( meat had forbidden any communication ;. v lih ships of war of any nation whatsoever.

In justice to Governor Schley, we are happy to state, that some time since, anticipating the Indians would escape, whenever they got hard pressed, he took the precaution to order Gen.

The question which naturally arises and whirh is propounded by if cry mercantile fnan is; will the hank, so uf as it possesses the means, retaliate. I venture to predict, that it will not. Its pres fitybusiness is far mora profitable than! t was under the old charter. Its power J s greater, while the r< strioiions on it are > ess. Its usBtulnesss is extending through 1 he means of agerrcics, over the whole ' country, and the period is rapidly approaching, when its most vindictive foes ' will not only regret that it was not rechar- f tercd, but when they will be prepared to j unite in urging Congress to renew the late i charter or to create a new institution.? The currency of the country, and the flue- J tuating and variable state of the exchanges w ill render apparent the necessity of such i a great balance wheel where almost the ' whole circulating medium is composed of paper, emited by nearly a thousand banks \ of every grade, and hue, and character, < as to capital, credit and managers. 1 I have bad a full and free conversation , with a gentleman who I know has confer- i red with one or more of the cabinet, on J the subject of Mr. Biddies visit, and I I1 am warranted in saying, that his opinion j (and I attach much weight to it) is, that j rrenj thing, in relation to the transactions be- j twct'n the bank and the Government as stockholders will soon be a< ranged in a ! manner perfect/if satisfactory to all parties. : Coining from the quarter whic h my information does, I cannot entertain a doubt as to its accuracy. Nor would it, in my opinion, bo proper for mo to suppress this information. I considered it highly interes- j tingto the commercial community, as well as to the stockholders. It may be made perhaps to nid in relieveing the pets, and relief they will require, or I am no prophet. CIIERAW G AZETTE. TtESDAY, JVL1 12, 1830. ? ?.t.
