this subject, is TO perscvere u little longer,
maintaing the doctrines Of the constitution,
and the suggestion Of cammon sense. we
know tina tour fathers who framed the con-
stIiution, gave TO coRgress no power 10
charter bank, and we cannot err, there.
fore, in saying that our government had
never departed from that example, we
would have had none Of the evils which
nowafflicl us in consequence Of bank sus'
pensions, and an irredeemable paper cur
rency. We know that II the government
deposited none Of the money Of the people
with banks, these institutions would have
had no power 10 endanserthe safety OF the
public treasure, or to influence, improperly,
questions Of public policy. We know
that banks do not make money, but only
circulate theil paper EMISSIONS, which
must be good or bad according to their
capacity to redeem ihem with specie; and
hence that there can be no confidence IN
them as long as they maintain the right 10
suspend specie payments at pleasure.
From such truths, it appears to me TO DO
self evident, that there is now no rellei
for the people but in the adoption OF the
independent treasutyrecommended byile
present administration Of the general gov
ernment. BY this, the financial opera
tions Of the treasury will be simp!ilied, and
the people will have the strongest guaranty
Al
that the money which il raised from them
by taxation will be applied according to
the requirements OF the constitution. II,
in addition to this reform in our financial
system, congress would, at The same time,
pass general bankrupt law. by which
the banks which are now in existence, or
may be hereafter chartered by The states,
would be bound 70 make an equitable dis
lribution of their effects to their creditors
when they refuse to redeem their notes
with specie, it cannot be doubted that
there would be an end 10 the evils OF de-
preciated paper currency. These meas.
ures being adopted, but little time would
be requisite to enable those banking insti-
tutions which are sound, TO regain the
public confidence, and the labor Of the
country the farming, manufacturing, and
mechanic interests would soon revive-thai
credit system which is based on real capi-
tai, and which goes hand in hand with the
labor and enterprise Of our citizens, would
be enlarged, not diminished, by the opera
tion Of these measures.
Congratulating you, gentlemen, on the
bright prospects which are before US in
respect to the adoption Of a proper remedy
for the existing disorder Of our currency,
and trusting that our country will soon be
free from the withering influence of
money power which is not recognized by
she constitution or the true interests of our
country, iremain, with sentiments Of pro-
found respect and gratitude to the people
and legislature Of your state, and to your
selves.

GTEAr FLooD.-The cities of Angus.
ia, Ga, aRd Hamburg, 8. c., have been
almost entirely inundated by the waters Of
the Savannah river, from the recent excess
i've rains. Both of the large and fine
bridges have been swept away, leaving
not vestage behind. Several OF the lower
wharf streets in Augusta are all overhown,
and the current rushing through at such
a rapid rate as to almost preclude the pas
sage ofsmall boats through the city. The
citizens had to fly, for safety, into the
higher parts Of the city. Immense dam
age is done 10 houses and property in the

The louisiana Pilots vs. The Mississ;;ppi;
Piiots.--The question at issue between
these two Parties--the right Of the Mis-
sissippi pilots to pilot vessels to and from
the balize--was yesterday being argued
boiore Judge Lawrence, in fhe United
States District Court.
On the part Of the Louisiana pilots il
is contended that the Mississippi pilots
are tresspassers on their rights and
privileges, and that the charter grated
them by the legislature Of their Stai3 is
null and void, inasmuch as the scene Of
their duties lies through the State Of Loui-
siara. over which the Legislature Of Mis-
has no control.
The defence set up by the Mississippi
10, that Pilotage, properly speaking, is a
commercial business, and therefore e0v-
erned only by the laws Of Congress ol The
United States: and that as Congress has
enacted no law giving 70 Louisiana the
sole regulation Of it, nor any law specially
prohibiting Mississippi from granting a
charter 10 certain Of her citizens, elnpow-
ering them to net as pilots, it therefore fol.
lows that the Mississippi pilots have The
same right and power to pursue their call,
Jog which the Louisiana pilots have, and
