Tiie Poisknkd Valley of Java.? i
The usual meeting in the Royal Asiatic i
Society, took place on Saturday ; the ritrht i
Hon. W. \V. VVynn in the chair. A paper
was* read hy Col. Sykes on the poisoned
Upas Valley at Betnr, in Java, ex i
traded from a letter hy Mr. London, containing
a description of his visit to the
place in July, 1NJJ0. According to the i
statement of Mr. Loudon, this valley is
wemy miles in exteut, aud of a considertl?le
width; it presents a most desolate
ippearance, the surface being sterile and
without any vegetation. The valley consins
numerous skeletons of tnanialia and
jirds. In one case the skeleton of a hunan
being was seen with the head resting
jpon the right hand; according to tradi*
ion it is said that the neighboring tribes
were in the habit of driving ih$ criminals
into the valley to expiate their crimes.?
Mr. Loudon tried the experiment of lowering
some dogs and fowls into the valley,
ind ' in every case animation became
quickly suspended, although life was prolonged
in some instances for ten minutes.

TEXAS.
We learn from 6ome gentlemen recenty
returned from a visit to Texas, that the
iflairs of that interesting region, are astuming
an aspect of great quiet and sta>ility.
The consciousness that the gloious
struggle of the revolution is virtuilly
ended, has turned the minds of this
nfant, yet distinguished people to the
'aim. r interests of peace?the establishnent
of tree and pure government, of
vholcsome laws wisely administered. In
informing this task they will be able to
iroflt, not only by experience of all histoy,
but particularly by that of our own
'ountry. Many promirtent, and, it is to
>e feared fatal errors, of whose institutons,
can, and probably will be avoided
?y the Texians. The urmy is representmI
as being in tine condition, still in qnarcrs
on the La Baca, under command of
jlen. Johnson. The naval force of Texts,
though small, is still formidable and
'fl'orls are making to fit out the Invincible,
lie B utus, and other vessels of war.
tluch trouble, however, both on land and
>y sea, lias been saved this infant Iliopubic
by the timely interference of the U.
States and of France, which has been in
'okeil on ihe destined government of
Mexico, by the lawless treachery and lulicrous
arrogance of their conduct tovards
all other nations. The arrival of
i British brig ??f war, in the ports of Texts,
bearing a confidential agent of his go. eminent,
is ati event which shows that
/lis country and its destinies, have already
ttructed the interest of foreign statesnen.
The Congress of Texas commenced its
ecoud session, at Houston on the 13th
us*. The government have taken steps
o negotiate the bonds f. r a loan of five ,
nillions?hut we are not informed wheher
it is expected to negotiate them in
he United Stales or in Europe. Such are
lie terms oflered for this loan, in times
hat of less commercial embarrassment
/.an these, we think ii would not remain
ong without being taken. Two cliait ror
banking institutions exist in Texas?
>nc with a capital of five millions, the,
ither of one million. It is expected that
me or both of these will soon get into
iperation, and the currency of Texas may
peedily become sounder and better than
he wretched and delusive system which
las been so badly "regulated" in the U.
Mates.
The gentlemen with whom we have
onversgd, represent the tide of emigraion,
that is now filling up Texas, as iintense.
Hundreds and thousands have
een and are still going to Texas from the
Initcd States, to see the country, to look
ut for homes lor themselves, their famiies,
and their friends. Texas now only
mints cultivators of the earth. Of soldiers \
tie has enough, in nnv conflicts which
an be apprehended with such an enemy j
s Mexico. Indeed the recent disturhnn-)
es in Mexico, render it more than proba-i
le that Texas will have no more trouble. J
Pile agricultural resources of Texas have,
lever been at all developed. They are j
mrnense, as will speedily appear, under
he industry and energies of the race, to
rhorn ti c country now belongs. Pr? paations
have been made for he cultivation
>f extensive crops of cotton, grain, &r.,
his spring ; and when the culture of solar
is added to these, T^xas will rank as
inc of the richest countries in all its reources
in the globe.

We refer our readers to the proceedings of a
large and respectable meeting of our citizens, held
at the Court-Ilouse on Thursday last, to take into
consideration the propriety of the Bank of c amden,
withholding specie payments for the present-?
The meeting was addressed by Mr. Wethers, in
reference to the present embarrassed state of the
country, and of the necessity of the Bank, as an act
ot self-defence, in conforming to the mode adopted
i by almost every institution of the kind in the
: United States, to sustain themselves, and prevent
a general bankulptct throughout the
country.

We beg leave to call the attention of our citizens
to the exposition of the Capt. of the C. 1. F. E.
Company, which will be found in another column
of this day's paper. H seems that the Engines in
use, is not now calculated to answer the purpose
for which they were intended, therefore rendering
the company inefficient, and consequently a Resolution
was very properly passed, to disband, unless
those who have an equal interest with themselves in
the security of properly, would come forward and
subscribe the deficit which it appears has been reduced
by the donation of jjioft from the Fire and
Marine Insurance Company of Charleston, to JtpoGO
which is ull that is now wanted to make up, the
$800, which was ascertained to be the sum rerequisite
tor the purchase and expenccs of a good
j Engine delivered in Camden. Our citizens certuinly
will not hesitate in this matter, and sutler
the Company to be disbanded and their charter
annulled.

meeting of the citizens ??f KiTslinw
held at the Court House at Camden, on

was called to the 1 hair, am! Win. Kennedy
appointed Secretary.
Tl ?os. J. Wethers, Esq. in a few brief,
but foicible remarks, explained the object
of the meeting, anil read the proceedings
of the citizens of Charleston, recommending
the temporary suspension of specie
payments by all the Banks in that city.
The President of the Bank of Camden,
made an exhibit of the a Hairs of the Institution,
which was so satisfactory to the
Stockholders, at their annual meeting a
few weeks ago that they authorized an
increase of capital of one hundred thousand
dollars, since when, the Hank has
curtailed its circulation hy seventy thousand
dollars, and brought its bills in
circulation, far within what it is authorized
to have, in proportion to the specie
in its vaults by its charter, and
amply demonstrated that the Hunk is as
solvent and able, promptly to meet all its
engagements as any Bank in the Sstate or
Union.
M- WT-. I -? -
I ith. ?t fmcrs men oiiercri the following
Preamble and Resolutions, which wero
j unanimously adopted.
' Whereas, the Hanks of all the Atlantic
cities of the Union, are known to have
suspended Specie payments?including
most of the principal commercial cities
of the interior country ; And Whereas, it
is deemed inevitable that this suspension
must immediately become, if it be not
now universal.
Resolved, therefore, That as a matter of
sclf-i efencr, this meeting recommend to
the Hank of Camden, a resort to the same
measure.
Resolved, That this course should bo
pursued so long, and so long only, bv the
