horse was killed and the sleigh demolished

General is in, the, best of health, and
that his popularity has risen tremen-
dously since the explosion ofthe Treas
ury Circular Humbug," Whether
Gen. Harrison will continue to be a
candidate for the Presidency depends
upon the voice of the party opposed to
the administration of Martin Van Blu

the goodsense ofthe American people,
is rapidly becoming understood, and, to
be understood in its case,. is to be,
CRUSHED. Let its opponents rally tn
der the name of some honest man, a
man who can be. trusted; and the days
ofVan Buren's political glory will spec

portion ofthe nation have weighed him
in the balance and found him wanting.

opposition, the meme, meme, tekel. uphqr-

GOLD IN VIRGINIA.

The Richmond Compiler says-"We
have fattering accounts from various
mines. The Congo Socco mine, in
Goochland county, Incorporated the
past winter, from an experiment lately
made, superintendent by Gen. George
M. Cook, on 80 bushels of ore taken
from the whole vein, including every
particle of rock, yielded 81, Is cents
per bushel. The 80 bushels were re-
duced In stamp mill in Is hours. The
washings were then amalgamated in
Burke Rocker, and, when melted 205
dwt. and 6 grs. Of gold were found;
which at so cts. the deyt. is equal to
$l9,704, equal to S2l9 per hundred
bushels. The mill having made this
80 bushels in Is hours, shows her ca
pacity to reduce 40 bushels in "a
hours which, from the same rock, will
produce $s26l 60 in that time, or 81
30S in five days or one week, (alkow-
ing one day in week for stoppage )or
$5,232 in four weeks, equal to ss li2 :,
794 in one year; and this from six
stamps only. ~. >
The Richmond Mining Company of
Goochland, we understand from good
authority, are doing remarkably well.
They are realizing $50 per day, and
their expenses are stated at about $40.
Most ofthe Companies are in good spi-,
rits, progressing with confidence, freed
from any mania. We are pretty sure
fair profits will be realized but hope
that no more wild speculations may be.
set on foot They are ruinous in gold
mining as well as every thing else. E.
ven gold may be oUer-Ualued."

directors, are carefully verified, and
The whole subject has been elucidated
by the maturest deliberation, proceeds
to declare The dividend, reserving gem
orally portion of the. profits as sur
plus fund, to meet the contingency of
unforeseen losses. Another powerful
check is the controul exercisedb by pub
lie opinion, as expressed in the public
estimate ofthe value of the shares. 1t
is scarcely possible to deceive the
world, in this regard, as the concerns
of the banks are intimately known to
so many persons, and the numerous
shareholders are naturally among the
competitors for, purchase. Another
guarantee and perhaps one OF the great
est, consists in the mutual surveillance
which these banks necessarily exer-
else. It'll scarcely probable that they
would continue to receive each others
notes, unless convinced of mutual sol
vency, and they are thus compelled to
stand as vigilant sentinels upon each
other.
With regard to the profits of this sys-
tenn, it is stated the majority ofthe joint

DG- On the annexed page we present late
and important news from Mexico-as also,
some intelligence from Florida. The news
from the former, in regard to their affairs with
Texas, it is now said, can never be settled I'M
til either tile whole Mexican race be extermi-
mated or until the last Texan shall disappear
from that colony. 1t also appears, that Gen.
BusTAMENTE, President of Mexico, has re-
leased the American vessels with their passen-
gersand crews, which had been captured and
detained at the city of Mexico-and had the
commander OF the Mexican fleet, arrested and
\ Imprisoned at Vera Cruz, for having captured
these vessels.

THE REWARD OF SERVICES.

1t is stated in some of the Administration
presses, that, in the event of Gen. Jackson's
anticipated bankruptcy, the democracy are
to be called upon to contribute their mite Tor
the purpose Of building up his broken fortune.
That he who III his attempts at bankrupting
the country has ruined himself will not be
the loser; but those whom he, has sustained
will contribute a portion of their lit gotten
wealth for bis support. We SUPPOSE they
priety divide the spoils with him in case OF
need-that a portion of the public money
which has been unconstitutionally drawn
from the treasury and thrown intotheir peck,
cts, will, as matter of course be contributed
for the support of hila Who assumed the le-
sponsibility Of giving it to them. When re-
CURED hia services will be rewarded, as theirs
have been heretofore. Perfectly ''Democra-
