A panic has been created in St. Louis
by the refusal of brokers and bankers to
receive bank notes of a less denomination
than ten dollars. A State law, enacted
some years ago. against the circulation of
small notes in Missouri, was generally dis
regarded, and became dead letter. Re-
Gently, however, the grand jury found
twenty-one bills of indictment against
brokers who had circulated small notes.
The fines alone on these indictments
amount to sixty thousand dollars, half of
which goes to the informer. This alarmed
the brokers of St. Louis, who stopped
dealing ia small notes, of which there it
is said to be a circulation of three hun
dred thousand in that city. A general
panic and much suffering among the poor
have been the result of this movement

GOLD ON THE GILA.-We learn from
Mr.. Cochran, who resides in the Choctaw
nation, about eighty miles from this place,
as trader, that there is "a man by the
name of Johnson uesiding with him, en-
gagged in teaching school, who informs
him that he with eight others, were
engaged in trapping in California, in 1 1S46,
that while travelling over great part of
the country, they came at length to the
GiIa, and that the party ascended the
river to its head waters, and among the
deep gorges of the mountains, they dis
covered particles of gold, which at first
they did not know to be such, but upon
going farther. they found the particles to
become much more abundant, and they
then commenced separating it from the
sand by blowing away the latter. and
after while they commenced washing
it, and was engaged in this work about
six weeks, when they were attacked by
some Indians. who approached in such
numbers, that the party fled precipitately,
and left all their gold and other property
to the mercy of their enemies. He sup
posed they dug, or rather gathered, about
sixty thousand dollars worth of gold,
but ne would not be certain as to the
amount, as they had no means of weigh
ing it. Shortly after they left the dig
gings they came across Col. Doniphan
and his command, and joined him, and
was with that officer in his expedition
through New Mexico. This man has a
regular discharge from Col. D.: and MIR.
Cochran says, from dis department since
he has been with him, that he believes
him to be man of truth. This gentle
man says that he is confident that there
are very rich gold mines, nearer this point
than on this river; but we shall be satisf-
ed to find them on the Gila, as they will
then be within 500 miles of Fort Smath.
It. Col. Emory, in his Reconnaissance,
says his guide informed him that there
was plenty of gold on that river, and that
a company of hunters, had washed out
large amount of the precious metal,
but they were attacked by the Indians
and killed. Col. Cooke, in his letter, also
speaks of gold mines in this region, and
upon this stream is the place where the
I" Big Pile" was seen by an officer, who
was with Gen. Kearzey, in 846, as re-
lated by Mr.. Salon R0blnsOn in the N. O..
Delta, some time since. May we not,
therefore, conclnde that, as the company
about leaving this place, will have to
travel this route, that they will find gold
in such quantities as to induce them to
stop on the Rio Gila, and commence
operations. MIR. Cochran has promised
to send Mr. Johnson in to this place in a
few days, and it is probable that he will

next.-Fou Smlth Herald.

INDIAN Corn IN THE WEsT.-The Bal
timore Patriot says that Mr.. Devereaux,
of North Carolina raises the largest crop
of corn in the Union. This the editor
puts at 100000 bushels. For Union read
North and South Carolina. We have
fields in Ohio, which far transcend this
estimate, and which [ do not particular
ise, because we cannot hold candle to
the far west in this respect. Jacob Strawn,
of Illinois, and DO not know that he is
the largest corn raiser IN the pralrles, has
5000 acres in Indian Corn, the product of
which in 1047 was more than 4OO,OOO
bushels. 81
