CHARLESTON CoURIER.-We are so struck
with the temperance, impartiality, dignltied
propriety and ability with which this paper IS
conducted that we take pleasure in recon-
mending it to the patronage of those among
our readers who wish to take a paper rom
Charleston. Now that the old party organi-
zation in our State is broken up and the former
causes of division removed, but little objection
can be made to it on that ground. 1t is we
believe admitted on all hands, by competent
Judges who have had an opportunity OF FORM
ing, an opinion 70 be the very best commercial
paper in the Southern States out of New Or
leans. And one thing which particularly rec
ommends it to the merchants of Cheraw, and
planters of the Pee Dee country is that it takes
deeper interest in this section of the State
than any other paper in Charleston. All the
other papers in that city are so utterly indlffer-
ent about this region of country and what is
doing here that they have refused to exchange
with lis. We hope our merchants and planters
will bear this i'll mind in making selection OF
papers to patronize in that city.

PH1LADELpHIA.-Wem understand that cap
italists from the North East have given three
hundred thousand dollars for the eighty acres
called, Greenhill, lying on the Ridge Boad,
Broad street, and Poplar Lane, between the
House of Refuge and the Girard Colege-and
that it is the design OF the purchasers to. lay
off the ground in squares, of which there IS
gronnd anough for about fourteen, with wide
streets to communicate with the new avenues
to be opened. 1t is wonderful that our own
citizens have suffered this design to be under
taken by strangers, for there can be no doubt
of its success, with great profit to all concerned.
VIII we never learn that it is 10 longer ne
cessary to build and live all huddled together,
where ground is thousand dollars foot, In
stead ofgong mile or two of, where it costsno
the one hundredth part of that outlay! An
omnibus or two will bring Greenhill as near
the Exchange as need be for any calling, and
all those who look ahead must see, that by set
ting at some little distance, their property, by
imperccptible but certain enhancement, grows
like the corn every day, so as to make a great
gain in few years.
They understand this so well in New York,
that six miles from Wall stleet, by water as
well as by land, is found near enough to be
there every day as if living in Wall street it.

We put i: 70 tho candid decision Of every
honest politician, whether the man who ha-

but intelligent citizen OF the West became,

able plantation. The person who resided
on the property, supposed it to be his own.
bit there was a flaw in his title, which threw
the ownership, upon the aged citizen first
mentioned. We said that he was aged
he was also poor. He had been in many
elevated, and responsible stations, III which
nc might have made q princcl y fortune, but
he was too honest. and after Il long series of
public services, he returned 10 private life,
like .lrisfLrs, with no fortune but an un-
spotted name. This Sudden lucky windfa

age of ease {; bat at the same time it strip

IMPORTATION OF BREAD STUFFS.

A cargo ofsome eight or ten thousand bush
els Of wheat has arrived in Georgetown, D. c.,
from Rotterdam. 1t costs, we understand,
delivered in Georgetown, one dollar and tpen-
ty-sir cents! At that rate, flour could be fur
nished at eight dcllars, or little less, per bar
rel. The profit on the importation must be
immense. Wheat could be brought from the
Mediterranean at lower rate. We see by
the last London accounts that fifty thousand
quarters are being shipped to this country.

A letter from Spain says, that the health o.
the Queen OF Spain is visibiy affected by the
position in which she is placed. Every day
brings with it new cause for her fears, and
new demands from those who are now her
masters. 1t is not enough that she has ordered
the sale of ecclesiastical property; she is requi-
red to destroy the aristocray altogether, and
to abolish entails. No priests, monast;c or
secular, arc TO be permitted. The army is
also suspected, and the arrest of all the un-
successful Generals is called for. In the mean-
time, the officers desert, or refuse all subordl-
nation-whole regiments, badly commanded,
and without pay, disband themselves. The
Sd regiment, it is said has gone over to the
CarGsts. The Treasury is so exhausted that

Great pressure is at this time experienced in
the New York money market. The n York
Express states ''that the Exchange upon New
Orleans, Mobile, and ST. Louis, arc four and
five per cent! and that even at these enormous
charges, money OH bills cannot be obtained,
neither can the bills be collected"
So long as the people permit ignorant empi-
RIGS to tamper with the currency there must
be a perpetual succession OF panics and pres
sure. The U. s. Bank would have kept down
the exchange at or delo'o quarter of 'one per
cent. It would be almost as safe to let a steam
doctor tamper with the vital currents of the
body physical, as a Jackson Van Buren admin
istration with the money currency of the body
polite.

On the fourth Oct. severe gale was eXpe-

injury to shipping. The damage sustained in
and off the harbor of Chicago alone is estima-
ted at from Sl50,OO0 to 100000. The
Schooner Martin Van Burea too much iniur-
cd to be repaired. The Schooner Gen. Hur-
rison had hole stove in her side, and was
driven on shore where she bllged and sunk.
But she can be repaired. The coincidence
in the namesis' little remarkable. If this

an evidence pointing to the election of Judge
