A MATTER OF cURIosITY.

Our readers are aware that certain initial
letters are used to express learned and pro-
fessional titles; as M. D. Doctor of Medi-
cine; A. M. Master Of Arts, &c. Some
years ago we saw pre6xed to persons
name the four initials D. d. D. D. We af-
terwards saw these letters developed in some
book, in this Dignuns Del Domums
Dedit. Those who know our utter detesta-
ton of the pedantry of those modern scrib-
blers, who introduce untranslated sentences
of latin, &c. in order to attain fictitious
eminence, by the most absurd mystifcation,
will not suspect us of quoting the above hard
words for any such purpose. We suppose
our scholars would translate the above
g He gave a gift to the honor of God"-
We are ignorant for what purpose, and in
what age, the above title vas given. We,
therefore, invite our correspondents, or those
that choose to become so, to inform us whe-
ther this was conferred on the clergy or lai-
ty? To what church, if any, is it peculiar,
and what services entitled the recipient to
its honors.
The North-Carolina standard., 1837-07-12

means of drawing in his new notes, with the
evident intention of trying to evade the for
feiture of the charter by palpable violation
of it's intentions. If he refuses to pay specie
for a certain length of time (three or four
months) for the notes thrown out as the,
currency of the bank, and which it is bound
to redeem, his charter is voidable by its own
provisions. His attempt is to escape this
provision, by issuing the old notes, instead of
the aeap. He makes them, to all intents and
purposes, the issue of the new bank, They
are issued on its responsibility, to perform
the functions of the paper Of that bank; and
yet Mr.. Biddle expects Coy issuing curren-
cy which, although bound to redeem, he
means to disclaim, and which the old bank
will not be bound to redeem, because issued
fraudulently) that he will escape the penalty
of issuing an irredeemable currency! This
fragrant outrage with the federal party will
pass for honest patriotism, Hating the Go
vernment of the people, the greater the
wrong done to it, the more right to them"
We have seen the United States Bank,
in various stages of its proceedings, seeking
to evade the provisions Of its charter, to pro-
mote it's private ends, and where evasion
would not answer, it has resorted to defiance.
But what can we expect from an lnstitu-
ton, governed entirely by foreign influence;
an institution that refuses to grant dollar
to the honest holders of its bills, in this coun-
try, while it is striving, by every means in
its power, to send specie abroad to enrich
foreign monopolists and bankers2 We have
found that Mr.. Biddle's avowal, that "ou1
first duty is to foreign nations," is by nc
means mere theory he has reduced it tc
famous practice; and is giving the country
a specimen of the high toned morality and
chivalrous honor of bank whiggery, that
would deny promise to pay at home, drain
the country of its last dollar, and subvert the
government itself, to advance the interests
of British Stock Jobbers and foreign and do
mestic Jews.
Let our fellow citizens look at the state
ment of the Bank in 1888, and no Longer
, wonder at the baneful influence of foreign
over our domestic aristocracy:

ers in 1888, (who at first took

MEXICO.

1t appears from the speech of the, Presi-
dent .Bustamente, lately made to the Mex
lean Congress, that our affairs with that
country will probably remain undisturbed.-
We find from the following extract that
law exists, authorizing the Mexican Execu
tive to satisfy the claims of the American
Government. When this is accomplished,
we see no cause for enmity between us.
"In the hattering perspective which have
traced of foreign relations, have the morti-
ication to except the conduct held by the
Government of the United States. Never
theless, the law which authorizes the Mexi-
! can Government to set on the claims of that
cabinet, and to take the proper measures for
the safety of the nation, in case it should
not condescend to grant the satisfaction to
which we have right on our own part, in
duces me to hope not, not without vt good grounds
public will be restored"

,ND1AN AFFAIRS.

Rumor is busy with Indian Affairs, and
.,,o scarcely know what to believe, or what
~ submit to the judgment of our readers:
A report prevailed in Jacksonville, on the
9th nit that the two chiefs, Sam Jones and
Dwell were now at the head OF the Mica
a,,L;es that council had been held which
oonaemned Micanopy to death, for having
s;aned the treaty with Gen. Jesup, and that
,,7rs,,pt to the sentence he was cut to piec-
r. hv the savages. The sub-chiefs, Cloud,
alligator, Tigertail and Wild Cat, had all
heen deprived of their rank and reduced to
common warriors, for signing the treaty. 1t
;s said that a party of seven Indians had
visited the plantations of Messrs. Clark, and
poll;ns. within seven miles of Newnansville,
and commenced cutting down the crops OF
those gentlemen, who, being there alone,
their families being fortunately absent, i'm
mediately proceeded to Newnansville.
The Jacksonville Courier, of the 29th ult
states that two days previously, two negroes
mast through that place, from Draytons
Island. which they had abandoned because
the Indians made their appearance on th'
Island. The Negroes stated they saw Indi
ans. and saw fires in various directions.
1t is reported that the mail rider was stop
ped at the River styx, by Indians-that the,
told him to carry ''his news" back; that n
more should go through their country.
General Jesup has for some days been eS
pected to arrive at Black Greek, and posi-
blv he is there now.
1t is also reported, that the Indians hav
burned the Government buildings at Volus
Sia
The North-Carolina standard., 1837-07-12
THE UNITED STATES BANK.

1t seems, from the following extract from
the Journal of Commerce, that this Institu-
ton is about to assume the appearance of
resuming specie payments, when in fact it
is but extending the circulation of irredeem-
ible paper in fraudulent shape. Largely
must Mr.. Biddle calculate upon the creduli-
ty, or stupidity, or servile devotion of his
friends, or he would not dare to propose a
scheme so deceptive and illegal; transcend
Ing, if possible, all we have heretofore seen
tron the same quarter, of open defiance of
law, md an unblushing contempt for the
opinions of the people; holding their love of
mora. honesty in mockery, their intelligence
III deriion, and their patriotism in scorn.
Specie Payn,ents.-It is currently re-
ported among the brokers in Wall street, that
the United States Bank of Pennsylvania is
4 ABOUT to resume specie payments on the
notes issued under the present charter Of
these there are very few out. In $4,000
Which were in possession of one of our
friends within day or two, all but S rs were
the notes of the National Bank. The old
notes have recently been issued in verv large
4 amounts at the South and West, and no
doubt sufficient funds have been raised to
enable the Bank to meet the small amount of
new bills now out. The arrangement, how
ever strikes us as one which, if it should be
consummated, will call forth remarks touch
