NOTICE.-Whereas, it appears from an examination of
schooner Rob Roy, deceased on board the Caroline Hort, dur
ing the passage of said vessel from Sydney to Tahiti, as well as
from other particular sources:
LIST, That said captain had taken, from the bark Julia DIM.
wrecked at the Sicily Islaris, the sum of 31OA sovereigns.
ID, That when the Rob Roy was wrecked on the Navigator
Islands, said Ruxton declared that he had not saved more than
AL sovereigns out 310A formerly taken, of which fact there is
great doubt, since a great number of articles of smaller value
were saved.
Sd, That it is suspected that said Ruxton has embezzled, for
his own profit, a part of the sum saved from the Julia AnR,
wrecked g. second time with the Rob Roy .
The " Commandant Particular" Commissioner of III. I. NJ
in the Society Islands, has ordered that an inquest be made by
the Justice of Peace, acting adj interim as Judge of Instruction,
upon the facts above stated
From said inquest, during which Mf. Charlton, second in
command of the Rob Roy, did not appear, by reason of absence,
neither the crew, and whose testimony was very important, it
appears:
That said Ruxton made, at Sydney, excessive expenses, out
of proportion with his situation and with what he was known to
possess when he left Tahiti.
That, in answer to one of the witnesses inquiring from him
how he was able to spend so freely, he declared that he had re
ceved money as assistance from a Scotch society named
Scotia.
That, after the demise of said Ruxton, 80 sovereigns and four
dollars, as well as some goods and jewelry, were found in his
possession, the origin of which cannot be explained.
In consequence, the Commissioner of I'll. /. NJ. has decided
that the present abstract should be published in the official
newspaper, so that all interested parties may present their
claims upon the succession of said Ruxton, delivered into the
hands of the British Consul, who win preserve it during one year
from this date.

1t the Virginia Methodist Conference,
recently held al Elizabeth, y. c., charge
was preferred against two preachers, Rev.
J. +. Edwards and Rev. Leonidas Rosser,
for induIging in game often pins, at ,he
Virginia Springs, last summer. tt. En-
Quirer s2ys.
The charge was founded upon the state
mcnt made by cores pendent Of the Eliza
beth Cily American Sentinel, published in
that paper some time in August. The de-
tendants plead guilty 10 the charge, and
while expressing their regret for the act, de-.
MED the intentional commission Of wrong,
and resorted TO the game as a healthy and
harmless exercise. The character OF the
iwo gentlemen inouipated would never sub
jject them 10 the charge of a wantoa disre--
gard oi the obligations and duties appertain-
ing 10 their vocation, and however improper
resort to the bow ling alley by Christian
;Rinister there cannot be doubt that the
reason a,signed-a good and sufficient one
we might say, il allowed to express on
opiuion-waS the true one. Messrs. Ed
wards and Rosser pledge themselves from
all future Indulgence in the game complained
Of, and the conference declined any lurlheg

Honesty the best Policy. ;,

Since the inauguration ol Gov. STEWART,
petitions for the pardon of convicts have, we
understand, been poured in upon him in
great numbers. From his known noble gen.
erosity and kindness Of heart, it seems to
have been inferred, that he would be very
susceptible 10 appeals made t. his synpa-
thies. II appears, however, that his sense
Of justice and regard for the majesty Of the
law, are equal to the severe tests which he
has been subjected, and which might have
overwhelmed a man of ordinary frnness.-
Facts within our knowledge have satisfied
us, that there will bs much greater safety
in keeping out of the clutches of the law
than in trusting 10 Gov. SrEwARr's inter-
position TO save the convict from the penalty
of its iufraction, And the idea that wealth,
the previous occupancy of high
position, and the advantages Of influential
connexlon (all of which add TO the criminal
iIy of an olender) will secure any peculiar
ravor from him, we feel assured, win be
nnd to be wholly f4llscious Il jefferson

The DUTCHMAH AND THE pASic.-Ey-
eryboly will remember the money panic
they had at San Francisco, scme years since,
and the story John Phnaix used 70 tell Of
its effects s-individually illustrated. Be-
fore the fright, taugal Dutchman, BY dint
of hard labor, had accumulated some FIVE
hundred dollars; which he cautiously depos-
tied in one Of the banking houaes for safe
keeping. Rumor ,oon came TO his ears
that they were not very sa'e--some said
that they had broke" Next morning he
trembingly drew his balance, and put the
gliuering gold in his pocket. He breathed
decidedly Ireer, but here was dilemma. -
What should lie DO with it? He did not
dare TO keep it in his ehanty-and as for
carrying it about him, twas too precious
heavy. So, after a sleepless night or two,
in constant apprehension Of burglars lie de.
posted it in another banking house. =
Another day-the panic increased there
was run Oh his bank -he pushed ill
drew his gold-and felt easier once MORE
Another anxious day and night for his
"moni>h," and again it was deposited in a
safe bank. This time lie felt safer than
ever before, and went quietly to his work.
B It the panic reached that bank, and AIN.
ious deposilors besieged its doors. AIyn.
heer heard the news, and put, post haste,
book in hand, for the scene Of action
jumped in with the crowd-drew his gold
new and bright-put it safely in his cordu-
roys- and was happy once more-bul here
was the dlIeIna again-where TO put it,
He had gone pretty much the round Of the
banks, and having had such narrow escapes,
he couldn't trust them any more. He sat
down on the curbstone, and soliloquizsd
thus:
81 put mine monish in Won pank, den he
preak; ! put mine monsh in do oder pank,
ven he break too; draw him out: can no
keep him TO home; put him in dis pank.

National Currency-A Plan Suggested

National Currency-A Plan Suggested.
A writer in the Washington Union sug-
gests the following plan for national cur
reney in place of the various kinds Of notes
now issued in almost every State:
1st. Let Congress put prohibitory stamp
tax of (say) 6 per cent. on all issues other
than national, made payable to bearer, or
endorsed in blank, or which by any devise
shall be intended 10 pass current as money.
Cd. Establish a bureau of exchanges at
Washington 10 issue government obligations
payable on demand; and subordinate TO this
establish subordinate bureaus throughout
the country at all points where the aggregate
demand for issue shalt be-say So, 5,OO0,0OOj
all minor demands being restricted to such
places being points of issue as the parties to
whom issue made shall designate.
Sd. Let any party, or combination Of par
ties, who shall obtain charter for banking
purposes, or who may now have such char
ter, from any of the States, and who shall
deposit with said bureau, State stock, not
having more than twenty years to run, or
Federal stock CT any length Of date, and
bullion or coin, receive issues payable in
coin at the bureau; such issues to be limited,
SO that said depositors shall receive one dol
lar Of issue for every dollar Of coin, or two
dollars Of issue for every two Of stock and
one Of coin,
4,h. Require every dopositor or receiver
Of issues 10 keep the bullion or coin 10 the
credit Of his outs sanding issues, equal tc 100
/ per cent, under sliding seale. Of penalties,
as follows: Ii the ccin TO the credit Of his
outstanding issues shall be reduced 10 40 per
cent, then they shall be debited at the rate
Of per cent. per annum on the entire ex-
cess; ifreduced to 30 per cent, then 8 per
cent; if IS per cent, then 3 per cent; il 20
per cent. then 10 per cent; IL 15 percent,
then 2 per cent. 10 be coilected from The
accruiug interest on the bonds deposited and
to go to the credit Of the governments and if
10 per cent. then such amount of the stock
shall be sold as may be necessary to restore
the coin 10 its proportion Of 30 per cent,
and pay the aforesaid penalties; provided
that no penalty shall attach until notice of
said deficit, and failure TO restore the pro-
} pdrtion Of coin, either by the surrender of
the excess OF issues or deposit Of coin;and
provided, further, that at any time deposit
tors may withdraw the excess Of their stock
over the outstanding issues on the surrender
OF a like amount OF said issues.
9th. Make no issue to any person, or
number Of persons, under one name, whose
deposit shall be less than $50, 600 in stocks,
unless the deposit shall be wholly in specie.
9th. The bureau shall furnish all he bills
issued and each bureau shall publish week
ly statements, showing the condition of
each account, the aggregate Of specie and
sccuritiec, as well as the aggregate Of issues
outstanding.
T,h. Each bureau shall certify its issues
on application to be payable at any other
bureau on (soy) first days notice.
Sh: No bill shall be issued for less
amount on lis face than ten dollars.
This will OF course diminish as The com lin,n-
ishes

at the same time suffering the caamities
which the excess Of banks have hitherto in
flicted upon the country, it would then be
far the lesser evil TO deprive them altogeth-
er of tie power TO issue a paper currency,
and confine them TO the functions OF banks
Of deposit and discount"
In referring to the public lands, he says
they should be disposed of so as to furnish
homes for the hardy, independent race Of
honest and industrious citizens, desirous ol
cutivatihg the soil, To squander away the
public domain, upon subjects Of question:.
bic constituliouaity, is il violation of The
most important trust committed 10 any peo-
pie. He deprecates speculation in public
lands, and says the public survey ought oujy
TO keep pace with the tideot emigration
Ii Congress hereafter grants alternate sec
tions, to States or companies, other sections
should be retained, subject only 10 actual
settlers at a moderate price.
He says making presents to Indians, is
found to be Intellectual and recommends the
policy oil colonizlng them in suitable locali-
ties and imparting the rudinents OF educa-
tion and habits OF industry. He says the
late financial revelsion, will have good ef-
feet, should it cause a return to practice
of wise and judicious economy, in the pub
lie and private expenditures. He deprecates
Congress crowdlng the most important bills,
till the last moments of the session, and eX-
presses the determination TO approve no bill,
unless time is afforded for examination, re-
quired by the Constitution. He recommends
Congress to allowable President two days
prior to the adjournment, within which nc
bill shall be presented TO him for approval.
