The October ( quarter is usually less productive than a either of the other three, and the fortu- , v nate termination of the harvest is, more- J over, a circumstance which, it must be ac- p knowledged, holds out the promise of j, some improvement. It is, nevertheless, 0 much to be desired that our foreign trade r should be put upon a better and safer |g fooling than a't'present. Our commercial b derangements with the United States will n not, we are of opinion, be of very long m continuance, but while the present system of interference in the affairs of Spain and ?

By an s agreement between the parties, a certain a amount was to have be6n*paid to France fc by Hayti, in annual instalments. Owing ( to a falling off in her agricuTtUral produc- t tic/rts, and the embarrassments of trade, t producing a deficiency in her revenues, <! the latter goverement has found it incon- i Venient and imnmmihlp to fulfil ih? ninn. * lations of the treaty. This failure on 1 the part of the republic, led to a proposi- < tion from the President for a change of | the terms of payment, offering after car* i liin arrangements were effected, to apply t one million oT francs, per annum to the t liquidation of the balance still due on the i indemnity. The French government ? ha?e not shown a disposition to listen to i those 6vertures< bat on tho contrary, 1 charge their delinquent debtor with an i intentton to evade altogether the provi- < ions of thi existing treaty, refusing to i alter the atipulations of the ordinance I previously ratified by the two govern* |t aud declariof dial no olhar agreerneni should be made (he basis, to the I question in treaty between them.

This language par- 1 ttkes very much of tlie tone Of defiance, a rhile at the same time, it is rnanly and a lignified. Any act .of aggression on the tart of France, will no doubt meet with '1 lesperate resistance.

Wal- ( ;er, just from the city of Houston, with he following statement in regard to the iresent affairs of that beautiful and inte- ( eating country. The Texian Congress is t till iri session; and occupied with a great t tress of business of the highest impor- i ance to the people of the whole Repub- t ic. As yet bui one act has been passed 1 if a general nature, and that is a law re- < fulating elections. The two Houses have lefore them Bills upon the all absorbing t uojecis 01 the Land, Uurrency, Navy, U ?.c.t and what will be the final action up- jc >n them, it would be difficult to divise, c t is believed an entire new Land Sys- J em will be adapted to the present situa-l ion of the country, and altogether much :alculatiou of the detection of frauds and 1 mpositions in Land Titles. Much anxicy. prevails throughout the country, in 'elation to the Land Office, which would , loubtless tend much to promote the setl?m?Qt of tho ?oii??ry.??nd t enhancing. < he value of land. The office wifl certain- < y be opened by the first of March next, < inless there should be a general invasion 1 >f the country, an event at this time al- 1 bgetner improbable. i The subject next in importance is the i urrertcy, upon which the two Houses are lirectly at issue, and upon which nothing s likely to be done, except in a spirit of imicable compromise. The Senate have 1 tefore them a Bill, authorizing the Secre- 1 ary of the Treasury, to issue drafts to 1 he amount of one million of dollars: 1 ind the House of Representatives a Bill, .uthorizing the issue of three millions, i he supposed amount of the public debt, * loth of which bills contemplate a pledge ' if the Public Domain, and of the public ? aith, for the final redemption of the 11 Irafts. The friends of the first, contend ; < hat not more than one million of dollars I < ould he made good at this time, bv a ? ledge of the faith of the Republic, and i hat throwing out three millions of paper t ivcr a sparsely populated country like t hat ol Texas, would inevitably depreci- t te it in value; which is believed by those r he least acquainted with the subject of c foanciering.lo be a very fair and imptir- t ial view of the matter; It is believed a lowever, from the contrariety of opinions i ipon the subject, that nothing more will fc >e done than to place the civil and miliary scrip upon an equality, and make it a [like receivable in all government dues, 1 vhich could not fail to raise it all greatly/a rom its piesent low and depreciated ? ralue, , 1; Both Cotogress ane the people at large* e eem to bd duly alive to the important d ubject, ait this time, of the Navy. Large ppropriatiens have doubtless been made 0 >y this time for speedily bringing upon the Julf a sufficient naval force for protecing her whole coast. The recent disss- i ers at Galveston have left the coast in a 1, lefenceless and.vulnerable condition: and g f the enemy should ever think seriously kf fiitin<r nut inrtthpr />toedition aratnst %, Texas, it would be by the transportation >f troops through the Gulf at different fi joints on the coast. But they will al- ( says find such difficulty in landing their roops, that ft will be an easy matter for , he Tdxians" to concentrate a sufficient 0 ores to repel their attacks.. And as to ? in expedition by land; the Mexieans are irell aware they could effect nothing, as they would be compelled to march their rorces oxer a large tract of desolate and 1 I e populated territory, where they would 3 run tne risk of starvation, and the loss of 1 their property from the depredations of i itraggliog Indians. In ffict, situated ash Texas is, bcr subjugation by Mexico, it beyond the reach of possibility. And the policy of the Texian government at lb?* lime is to furlough and disband the army, to relive the country entirely of the exigencies of a hiilitajy establishment, and o rely upon the miliiiat which is believed to le sufficient tor all purposes of defence. Several other matters of public interest vere expected to engage the attention of he representatives Of the people; And tmong others, the. reuiOvsl of the seat of piveruraent from Houston to some eligible ind central site in the upper country, vhich had already produced considerable xciigineut, and no little sectional feeling. I The motive which seems to actuate many n this uteusdre, is laudable?it is to entitle the government to avail itself, by the ocaiion of thi? ???' _ uv?> w> guvcniiu^ni ppon he public domain, of the proceeds of the ales of lots, and thereby to bring a urge revenue into (hi Treasury. It is herefore extremely doubtful, whether nother session of Corighesa will be held t the present seat of government. The labors of the present Congress of Texas have been most assiduously devoted o the public interest, and cannot close rithout affecting soide important results ipon the future prospects of that growng republic. That body cantairts much alent, and sound piratical sfensfe; ind they eeitl to have in Hew the establishing the agislatkon of the country upon a firm and . lurabie basis' Emigration from all quarters was pourng into the country to an extent hitherto inknown in the annals ol any country,. irhirh cannot fail in a few years to make Texas, unaided and alone, a great and lourirfhing country. *4he certainly offers ;reat inducements to the man of talents, nler prize and iuduntry; and all who are 1 lesirous of connecting their future rieffli-i lies with her, need have no iears even n>w of their persona and property, under lie protecting ?*is of her single star.

The Legislature of this State assembled at Columbia, on Monday last, and on Tuesday the Governor*! Message was delivered. No business of interest hai of course been yet transacted. We perceive thai Mr. Yeadon, of Charleston, gave notice on Monday that he should, on the ne^t day, introduce a Bill ti enlarge the prison bounds of the several Districts ii this State. This bill will no doubt embody the view; sxpressed in an article, a part of which we copied last week from tho Charleston Courier. We sincere, ly hope that the Legislature may give tho subject that consideration, which the genius of the age in which we live demands. THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE. We regret that it is not in our power to give our "caders Gov. Butler's Message this week, but the nfn liAnr a# U ?? ? ? * J ??v uvui ub tyuavtu li woo ruufivuu, ana our umitod lumber of hands, has prevented us from doing what ve so much desired As we shall publish the Message next week, we vill not now attempt on abstract. We may say, lowever, that it is a plain, unpretending document, naking many excellent suggestions, and some, to tay the least of them, of doubtful utility. Among he former we notice that he has repeated the re. sommendation of Gov, M'Duffie, in Urging (he necessity of a Professorship of Modern Languages, md a Professorship of Civil and Military engineer, ng, in the South Carolina College. Amon? the later we would include that recommending that a porion of the Surplus Revenue received from the Geler&l Government, be expended in the erection of nonuments. The short paragraph which His Ex. :ellency has devoted to the subject of Abolition? night as well have been (Knitted, for ought we can ee, as it seems to be more intended for the instruc* ion of the members of a diffent Legislative Assem. ily from that which he was addressing. On the subject of duir pecuniary embarrassments, md the situation of the Banks of this State, His Sxcellency dwells at considerable length. Having pplied to the proper officers of the different Banks, or a statement of their situation, which was prompt, jr complied with, an abstract of the whole is given, ixhibiting thefh as in a most safe and healthy con. iition. , His Excellency makes the liabilities f all the Banks of the State 7.773 554 85, Their whole assets 19,256 162 78, ine otocanoidere in tbe Virions talks are also bound, in case of fail, orb, far double the amount of their I took, say 15,183 303 00, Making the whole security to the toldeiB of the fiotes of theJ|anks 34,438 364 78, To this must be added throbligation of the Stattf or the liabilities of the Bank of the State of South taclina. We will not, however, dwell longer on the various objects treated of in this document, but give it to ur readme, so that they may themselves judge of its omits. COttVENTlGN OF BANKS.

For the last twelve moo the toe elements of revolution have been rife in Caai(b| bat it vie supposed that the number of maleoonteute were eo few ae to render a successful revolt so unoer. tain, that the idea would be abandoned, without the attempt being made. Tuie seems however, to havw been a mistake, ae blood has already been shed, and the Montreal Courier, in detailing the particulars, says: "Virtually the whole neighborhood in which these events occurred, is already in a state of war.** A groat number of persons have been arreetod and imprisoned, charged with high treason. A QUANDAitV. Tho position at preeont oboupied by those two great political giants, Mr. Van Bure.v and Mr. Calhoun, have placed the friends of each in a moot extraordioary and sonUdihat perplexing quandary. The question is constantly asked, whether Mr. Calhoun has gone over to Mr. Van Burc.n, or, vice verm, add a i a !a ... -dAs wo irienas ot eacta in to the question, assert that their leader has pursued the onward, firm and consistent "tenor of his way," and"that the other has come over to him. For our own part, haying eecliew. ed politios, so far at least, as the Editorial depart, ment of the Courier is concerned, we shall not pre. tend to decide the perplexing question, particularly as we have at this present time of writing, no very particular affection for eitlipr one or the other of the parties. The settlement of the question is however, a desideratum, as many, vory many, aid in the position indicated by the caption of this article, And cannot be relieved until it is definitively decided. For instance, we heard a thorough going Van Burn man intimate the other day, that if he were satisfied that Mr. Calhoun had gone over, he should not hesi. tate still to "go the whole hog," but, if otherwise, he didn't know what he should do. Under these circumstances the importance of having an authoritative decision of this question, is appaxeht; and as it is asoertamed that the friends of the parties tee divided in opinion on the subject,"" we suggest that the gentlemen themselves aid their followers in deciding the matter. - " vuiuucu a~ ncc i^urrCDT* SATURDAY, December 2, 1337.
