The Louisville Advertiser, speaking of obo.
Hilton and of the President ofthe United States
says, that he has ''stood up for the rights of the
South ever since he was first named for the oC.
flee he now holds" This is partially true
Mr. Van Buren,, to certain extent, has stood
up for the rights Of the South euer since he aoas
nom'mated for the Presidency. Our objection to
hun is, that, before his nomination, he always
acted as the relentless enemy ofthe South, and :,
that he has changed his ground since, not from
any dictate of principle, but merely to compass
the objects of his selfish ambition. Before his
nomination, he voted for the otrocious Missou-
n Restriction, for the humiliation Of slavervI
n the Florida Territory, and for that most
oathsome of all possible denominations, negro
outrage in fine he omitted no opportunity of

DEAR SIR:-All the banks suspended specie pay

to come into the measure before noon. Although
the measure was not expected so soon, yet il has
not created any great sensation 1t appears that the

election. Had they suspended twenty four hours
sooner, Mr.. Kane, the lecofoce candidate, would
have been mayor Of the city. A it is the whig ma

the election oflast year this owing three circum

by the Council before.
The wings have still majority in all the wards

the Upper Delaware Ward and lave carried all their
city ofcers; but the oeofocos have carried all the
county officers.
The effect Of the suspension upon business has
been beneficial. All the Western and Southern mer-
chants in the city are delighted at the movement.
Money fell today from 81 to per cent.
Nothing could have saved many of the Philadel-
phia merchants and banks from utter ruin, but
this movement. Two millions in specie would have
had to leave for New York in three weeks.
The Insurance Offices and Brokers ran the banks
very hard for specie, ON Monday and Tuesday; bat

To the Editor Of the Herald
DEAR SIR-From tour through the best cotton
region Of Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, tho
writer would beg leave to make few observations
in regard to the coming crop Of cotton.
The estimates have been entirely too high. The
crop, under the most favorable auspices, could not
have reached two million bales All that portion
Of the cotton region, between 81 and So degrees Of
north latitude has been seriously injured b. drought
and the crop cannot, with the most favorable wea.
ther for picking, exceed 900 bales The price
and money market Of England. Yet there 10 every
thing TO effect in the domestic exchanges Of the
country before we look for the great impetus to
trade we should have right to expect under the
healthy regulation Of commerce. TIE only plan to
effect this, so long the Of the currency kept
up, is, for Philadelphia and New York to bring to
the hypothecaton ofsecurties with all the southern
banks, that are and have pursued Legitimate
Of banking. Those Of Georgia, Alabama, and Ten
nsssee have been managed with ability during the
sppi have been equally well managed under the cir
cumstances by which they were surrounded; and
there is NO doubt SEINE Of the new banks viii be
perience Of the past to govern and direct them
They are generally eschewng the cotton operations
Of the last two years, il has been proved beyond

At variance with all the well organised laws Of
trade, and should be abolished.
Correct the Southern exchanges, and New York
and Philadelphia may look for the receipt Of hum
dreds Of thousands OF dollars, which are now sus-
pended. lfesl wei assured, II their financial ability
should DC brought to bear they encounter and
trade will be the heaviest since IS. There are COM
psratively no goods in the South The spirits sfthe
Southern merchant are much depressed by the
gloom which surrounds him, and although all the
vAyscal energies Of the country actively sngag-

They may be brought 10 bear mach earlier by the

The losses in the South will not be 80 heavy n an
