Charge, an account of which we published
The statement of the origin Of the affair,
as given by Col. w., is substantially the
same as already published. The way in
which the insult was resented, is thus
briefly narrated by Col. Potter:
"rhe next morning | repaired at an ear
ly hour to his apartments, and called upon
this man to accompany me to General
tIerrera's room, for the purpose of explain
ing his extraordinary conduc, in the pres
encc of the general. He refused to do so
and, with the most deliberate assurance
you can imagine, he observed 10 me, sit
is you, sir, who must apologize to me ~
Finding thai he was not disposed to make
amends for his base conduct, resolved to
show him that, at home or abroad, an
American gentleman knows how to chas-
tise the nsoence of a blackguard, by Civ
ing him Gaming in the presence of about
twenty persons, who had gathered around
in the meantime, many of them, too, his
own countrymen, who, 10 a man, remark

waited upon Mr.. Stanhope Provost, Unit

SPURIOUS BANK NoTEs-A Itcrntions to
the Chesapeake Bank of Baltimore. The
Philadelphia bulletin states that within the
last few DAYS large number OF the spuri-
Gus issue 81 $50 notes on the Lancaster
County Bank, which are described in
Bicknell's Reporter, on the 18th instant,
have been put in circulation IN that city.
They are an alteration from the genuine
plate of some broken bank, and their exc
cution is so good that the best judges have
been deceived by them. Two of the Phil
adclpha Banks have received them at the
counter, without detecting the fraud at the
time. We copy the following d. scrip,ion
of them from the Reporter -
'Vignette, sheaf of wheat, plough, &c.
In the distance, locomotive and trair OF
cars. On the lett end female. ho' ding a
cup to an eagle. On the right end an ca
gle with shield, between the dcnomina-
tons. Ra"don, Wright 4 Hatch, en-
gravers."
The Bulletin understands that there a.
also $40 notes of tie same description in
circulation there and like wise of the same
denominations, altered to the Chesapeake
Bank, OF Baltimore.

SLAVES FROM oTuEt STATEs.-On Tues
day last Bill was passed in the House
OF Delegate. repeating all laws restrict
inc the admission of slaves from other
States into Maryland. There were but
~ members present, and the vote stood
26 yeas, 81 na,s. This Bill is contra
nv 10 the established policy OF the STATE
we believe it is contrary TO the views
OF large majority of the people I'VE
know il is contrary to the views OF tn"
people Of Cecil county, and we were
surprised that her delegates. with the
exception Of B ddle, who was not pres
-n,) should have voted FIR it. The
country has run mad upon the subject OF
slavery, and it is unvise and impoli'lc
TO commence the agitation OF il in thu
State at this time. Besides we want no
worthless slaves flooded in on us, s. slave
holders, we apprchrnd, do not want the
value OF those they p'ssess lessened by
an influx of others. We hope the Senate
will reject the Bill Let The Legislature
enact such laws as il thinks necessary
and advi,ab lie 10 protect the slave prop
erty OF the State, against the intermed-
ding of abolilionists. but let IT not le-
galiZe The admission OF slaves from other
81 ates, farther than it is legaIlzed under
existing laws.
