The following letter. which we copy from the Troy Morning Mail, of Wednesday, con- firms the account of our own correspondent in regard to the carnage at St. Charles. The letter was, not originally intended for publi- cation, being written merely in the course of correspondence between friends---and there could have been no motive for misrepresen- tation. It bears date at St. Johns, Nov. %.
 My Dear Friend-I wrote to you in the early part of the day l; since that the troops have arrived at St. John on their way to Mon treal from St. Charles. The account gave you of their proceedings is correct with the exception of the number of rebels killed, which is considerably more than stated The true account is 125 buried on the field of battle, 60 to 30 buried up in Debartzch's out houses-about 100 driven into the river and drowned-and perhaps 60 to 100 shot in the woods and on the road, besides those killed in St. Denis amount to 96-thus making a. bout 500 poor, infatuated men slain, and up- wards of 300 wounded-many of them dan- gerously. astE s5q ss4 r.
 The Canadians have all returned to their homes with the exception of about 40 prison- CTS marched in here with the troops on their way to Montreal. Gen. Brown is not taken but is reported to have been hung by his own dupes after the action. Papineau and Callighan were both at St. Marc during the engagement, but neither can be heard of now
 < there is not, it is said, the slight est chance for Viger to escape.
 It is stated in the Boston Morning Herald of Thursday, that several persons had left Boston day or two before, in body, to join the insurgent army in Canada.-N. Y. Cour.
 NEw-ORLEANs, Nov. 29.-More SteGmboat Disasters.-It is painful duty, too frequent ly devolving on the press, to record accidents of serious nature on board of the Western steamers. This morning we are called upon to state that the steamer Majestic. hence for St. Louis, when near Memphis, collapsed one of her fues, by which accident two persons were killed. and seven others scalded, all deck hands and firemen.
 In addition to this accident, we learned yesterday by the arrival of the Levant, from Red River, that the steamboat Privateer, from Natchitoches for this place, with car- go of cotton. struck a snag near that place and sunk cargo and passengers saved.

THE GOLD HUMBUG.

n Colonel Benton was one Of the di-
Rrectors Of the Bank of Missouri; by the
Echarter no director could directly or in
directly receive from the bank more
\ than three thousand dollars, to the use
sofwhich each director, as such, was en-
titled for his services. As the editor of
the Enquirer, Col. Benton made war
upon all the other banks, and through
This influence as editor and Senator OBJ
\ tanned for the Bank of Missouri the
spublic deposites. As a director, he
took an oath faithfully to discharge his
! duty as such; one provision of the
charter being that no director should
directly or indirectly obtain from the
i bank more than three thousand dollars.
For time all things went on swim
4 mingly; but the public deposites hav-
i ing accumulated to about one hundred
Il and eighty thousand dollars, the direc-
SNtors, Colonel Benton being one, divi-
/ ded the money among themselves,
/ broke the bank, and thus defrauded the
|, Government and the public.
h Now mark the sequel. These facts
4. were known IN St. Louis. A branch
i Bank of the United States was estab-
f.lished there; the directors refused to
4 discount Colonel Benton's paper; he
began his war upon the bank; he used
|, his position in the Senate to urge Gen.
I jackson to remove the deposites; he
\ obtained an agency of Cincinnati
\ Bank at st. Louis as substitute for the
\ Bank of the United States the direc-
\ ton was placedin the hands Of his po-
\ itical partisans; the public deposites
accumulated to two millions Or therea-
/, bouts; Benton continued to denounce
\ all banks, until hispartisans in the Mis-
\ souri, Legislature had chartered State
Bank with a capital Of FIVE MILLIONS,
4 to be organized on capital BORROWED
\ on the bonds of the State. When this
was done, and partisan directory Or
/ ganized, HE BORROWED from the Sec
!: Rotary of the Treasury ONE MILLION OF
4 dollars, and obtained transfer of the
!. public deposites, near two millions
I more; and thus armed with THREE
MILLIONS of the public money he goes
to Missouri to operate on the public
sentiment, to speculate in public lands,
1 & laugh at the ruin which overwhelms
! the country !!
|. We ask the merchant who is reduc.
4 ed to bankruptcy, the planter who is
! reduced to beggary, the labourer who
wants his daily bread, to ponder on
Il these facts. And we would ask, what
do a people deserve who in the phren'
zy of their political mania install the
! Hero of Chapel Hill as the great high
priest ofparty idolatry I'D.

bout 9 o'clock, while the crew were seated
in the cabin, a large Panther sprang in at the
door and seized one of them by the shoulder.
The other three men rushed to his assistance,
and endeavoured,i in vain to extricate him from
the terrible jaws Of the monster; one of them
took up a rifle ard levelled it at the Panther
but it missed; he then obtained bowie knife
and plunged it into the heart of the beast. The
poor boatman was most horribly mangled ,ha-
wing had his shoulder nearly torn OFT and his
body lacerated by the claws of the infatuated
monster.
