From South America we have advices that the re
bellion in gusto has' subsided ; and the three different
parties, viz. the native *, the French party, and the Fer
dinand VII's had united, and public tranquillity per
fectly restored. This information ii communicated
by a character of high standing, named Antonio Amer,
with a string of titles " as lang's my tail," and offici
ally published at Santa Fee and Carthagena, and at
the Havanna.
On the subject matter of the 1 most gracious speech
this day's Ga
of his Britannic majesty, published in
shall forbear further comment than to briefly
zete, we
notice, that in the article relative to Mr. Jackson's
conduct, the lie direct is most plitmply given to most
of the federal editors under the Jacksonian influence.
So far from •• approving his conduct,
as we were
told to believe, his majesty is taught to say, that he
« sincerely regrets this event," and as the Americans
desirous of maintaining friendly relations—he
are
wishes to meet them with a ' corresponding disposition.'
-—it would seem
By this assertion of their employ
how, the federal editors, by hook or by crook, have
lest their cue.
The prospect before us ! —We have information ,from
a source which wc cannot doubt, that, under the auspi
ciesof Mr. Bayard and other gentlemen of high feder
al standing in and near this place, a Press is shortly
to be removed from the interior of Pensylvania, to
t Vss borough, for the purpose of publishing a federal
paper amongst us. Desparation is the last effort of
•physical and political.insanity. Shiem Pens vult p:r

FOR THE DELAWARE GAZETTE.
HAVING observed several essays in
'the newspapers published in Wilmington, rela
tive to the appointment of directors for the
new
Bank, I have no inclination to add any thing
on
that subject—it is a matter, in my apprehension,
that belongs propet ly to the Stockholders; and
a« I flatter myself they will act prudently in the
choice that they will be called upon to make,
and upon which willso much depend the future
-welfare of the institution, I therefore willingly
submit it to their discretion, without offering my
private opinion who would be the most suitable
for that station. But there
persons
arc two
points, that will in my opinion, demand the at
tention of tire Stockholders at their first meeting,
d which, from their importance, 1 am induced
an
to believe it will not be out of the way for
me
to mention, that as there may be some who have
not yet reflected on them, they may
come prç
pared, to the general meeting, with opinions
ready formed on mature reflection.
As I conceive it highly proper that tire Presi
dent and Directors (to whom will be consigned
■ the interests of the Bank, and who will luve the
scle command of the Stock of the company)
should be responsible to the Stockholders ; and as
I have not discovered in the Articles of Associa
tion any tiling creating such responsibility, I
ap
prelrend it will be proper for the general
me??
ing to annex to those articles one that will ob
lig* the Direction to make annual reports of the
state of the Bank to the company. Such I be
lieve to be the practice ia other Baaking institu
tions—but which in relation to one Bank
was
so little regarded, that the writer of this article
knows that for some
years no account was exhi
bited that could be relied
on.
Tire second point relates to the Shares which
it was proposed by th* original friends of the
Bank to reserve for distribution by the President
and Directors.
There probably would ha
ve
been no difficulty in investing them with this
power to the full amount originally contempla
ted, had there not been a larger number subscri
bed than wiil leave that
number free for such
distiibution.
But as 1 consider the provision for
that distribulio
n a wise one, calculated material
ly to benefit the institution in various points of
view, and in none perhaps more beneficially
than by a diffusion of the notes
among men of
business, ard whose interest it will be, in case
or a judicious distribution, to promote the wel
fare of the Bank, I (eel a confidence that
every
Stockholder will come forward prepared to
con
sent to a proportionate reduction of the shares he
nuy hold, that the President and Director*
may
not be tramclled
a point wherein the welfare
on
of the Bank is so deeply concerned.
The w riter of this article does not
mean to
give advice that he will refuse to practice.
He
!! 80 fu,1 >' convinced of the propriety of this mea
•ure that he w ill make no hesitation to
a reduc
"oa of his stock for this purpose, ami he will on
ly add that it the com
P an y when met shall de
termine to vest the
power to distribute S59,000
•f stock as has been
proposed, it will render the
Question of" who shall be directors," more im
portant— „ upon this distribution will, in a great'

While the columns of the Watchman

of different individuals, for the direction
of the new bank, I observe that you have,
probably from motives of delicacy, hither
to abstained from presenting through the
