We trut then that they tvill still he found together. If, however, we are mistaken, we are certain of one thing, that much as the people of Tennessee love General Jackson much as Ihey venerate his name they will never surrender, even at his dictation , that glorious prize, for which he and they so bravely contended at the battle of New Orleans tiikir independence. G7A Correspendent of the Richmond Enquirer states on the best authority, that the old and honest patriot Nathaniel Ma con, is in favor of Martin Van Buren for next President. Mr. Macon lias never been suspected of hostility to "Southern inter ests," and his preference of Mr. Van Buren for the highest office in the gilt of the people, speaks olumes in behalf of the selection. ret. Con.. Prohibitidii of small Notes. The bill to prohibit the circulation cf Bank notes under &5, has pass ed the Senate of New York, by a vote of 25 to 2 and the As sembly, by 72 toJ. The bill provides for the gradual with drawal of mall notes within a pe riod of 18 months, viz: "The ones on the 1st of September next, twos on the 1st of March, 1836, and threes on the 1st of Septem ber, 1836." The Assembly a mended the bill so as to prohibit the circulation of all foreign notes under $10. The Senate have yet to pass on this proposition. It is ascertained, that the amount of bills under $l, of the N. York Banks, in circulation on the 1st January last, was $3,730,902 or nearly a 4th of their whole cir culation. This important measure will cause a demand for more specie, and will, of course, retain a larger portion of it in the country. The next movement should be, to ex tend the prohibition to notes of all sorts under $20. Then, we shall have just such a solid specie basis, as might be sufficient to support a restricted and well re gulated paper circulation. Then we should rival in a great degree the monetary system of England and of Trance. In the former, they have no Bank notes under 5 sterling and in the latter, none for less than 100 francs. Richmond Enq. The Specie. A from New Orleans late letter stales, that there never was so much or specie, in that city. money, We are happy to learn, that the Bank of Virginia will receive to day, from Philadelphia, Sl00,000 in gold of the American coins. These Benton Drops, (Eagles, Half- Eagles, cc.) are beautiful productions of the Mint and will i in i.i oe graauaiiy circulated among the'Citizens of V irginia. ib. Benton Mint Drops. We understand that thirty-two thou sand dollars worth of "Benton Mint Drops' in the shape of Ea gles, Half Eagles and Quarter Ea gles, found their way iuto the Vault of one of the Banks of this Town, last week. This is the currency the hard metal cur- rency, wnicn me present Admin istration is laboring to give the people for ordinary transactions, in lieu of perishable Bank paper. Petersburg Con. 'C!7The Secretary of the avy has given notice that a board for the examination of Midshipmen whose warrants have date prior to the 1st of January, 1830, will be convened at Baltimore on the 2d Monday in May next. Com modore Jacob Jones is President of the Board, to whom midship wen are to report at the time and .place specified. Troubles hetvjeen Ohio ar.I Michigan. The Baltimore Re publican, says of these difficulties: "Mr K. T. Lytle, of Ohio, and Judge Doty, of Michigan, have passed though this city, with in struction and powers from the General Government, to endeav or to reconcile the difference be tween the two parties, or at least to preVail upon them to suspend hostilities until further measures can be adopted to secure the ac complishment of an end so very desirable. They have informed us, however, that they have seri ous apprehensions that before they reach the place, the different forces would meet in hostile ar ray, and that blood would be shed.'' From the Kaleigh Standard. Nash County. At a large and respectable meeting of the citizens of Nash county, N. C. held at the Court House on Thursday the 17th March, 1S35, -on motion of General Henry Blount, the meet ing was organized by the appoint ment of John Arrington, Sn'r Esqr., chairman, and Martin R. Garrott, Esq. secretary. After being conducted to the chair, the I chairman briefly stated, and call- i ed on Gen'l. H. Blount to explain more fully, the object of the meet ing; w ho, in a speech of consider able length, and in a very full andelaborate manner, expressed his views greatly to the satisfac tion of all present; and concluded by a motion that a committee of j five be appointed for the purpose ! ot tlralung a preamble and resolu tions setting forth the sentiments of the meeting in relation to the subject thereof; whereupon Gen'l. H'y. Blount, Sam'l. L. Arrington, and James S. Battle, Esquires, and Dr. Isaac Sessums, and Dr. Richard Short, were appointed; who. after having retired for a short time, returned, and through I their chairman, (Gen. Blount,) j reported the following preamble j and resolutions, which were unan- I rmously adoptedi Whereas, the time is approach ing when the people will be called on to elect successors to the pres ent President and Vice President of the U. States; and whereas, it is greatly to be desired that there i should be harmony and concert of action among those who have sustained the Administration of Andrew Jackson, and w hose ob ject it is to perpetuate the princi ples upon which it has been con ducted; and whereas, if there is a number of candidates and the strength of the Republican party is divided, it is much to be feared that the election will be thrown on the House of Representatives, as has been the case heretofore; that that body by Opening the door to fraud and management, may im pose upon the country a President who is not the choice of a majori ty of the people: Therefore, Resolved, That as a means of uniting the whole strength of the Republican party on one set of candidates, this meeting approves of the Convention proposed to be holden at Baltimore, on the 20th of May next, for the purpose of nominating Candidates for Presi dent and Vice President of the United States. Resolved, That this meeting cordially concurs in the sugges tions made by the people of the other counties of this Electoral District, and that it will appoint fi ve delegates to meet such as have been appointed by said counties, at Tavern of Henry Simms, Esq. of this county, to elect a del- j egate or delegates to the Balti more Convention, and that this meeting recommend to the dele gates of the other counties, Satur day the 1 1th day of April next, as a time suitable for the meeting of the district Convention. Whereupon, Gen. Henry Blount, Doctor John Arrington, David Deans, Esq., Dr. Richard Short, and Wm. Bryant, Jr. Esq. were appointed delegates for the county of Nash, with power to fill vacancies. N ' Resolved, That the thanks of the meeting be tendered to the chairman and secretary, for their Services; aud that its proceedings be signed by them, arid published in the Warrenton Reporter, and Raleigh Standard. After which, on motion of Gen. H. Blount, it was, unanimously. Resolved, as the sense of this meeting, That the Hon. Willie P. Mangum, Esq. United States Senator of the State of North Carolina, has grossly misrepre sented the citizens thereof, by his condemnatory vote of the Presi dent of the United States; and that he has, by refusing to obey the in structions of the Legislature of our btate, at the last session thereof, forfeited all claim upon our confidence as a politician. JOHN ARRINGTON, Ch'n. Martin R. Gahrott, Sec'u. Memorandum of the early histo ry of Judge White.--Hugh L. White was born October 30th, 1773, iti Iredell county, N. C. When about seven or eight years of age, his father moved to Crip ple Creek, Wythe County, Vir ginia, and lived there a few years; from thence moved to the neigh borhood, of Knoxville, Tennessee. When a mere lad H. L. White was engaged in most of Sevier's campaigns againt the Cherokee Indians, and was distinguished for his bravery, hardihood, and saga city in that partisan warfare. Under the influence of Col. Charles McClung, who had re cently come from Pennsylvania, and had married his sister, and observed decided evidence of talent in young White, his father was induced to soid him to Penn sylvania to finish his education and study the profession of law. He completed his education at some institution in Philadelphia, where Congress was then in ses- j sion, and where he then attracted ' notice, and obtained the friend ship of that distinguished patriot and republican, Nathaniel Macon, of North Carolina. After com pleting his education in Philadel phia he went to Lancaster in Pennsylvania, and studied the j profession of law under Mr. Hop kins, then an eminent lawyer of that place. Knoxville Register. Distressing Casualty. It is with sincere regret, we announce the death of Richard Lewis Steven son, Esq. Clerk of the County Court of Spottsylvania, under cir cumstances peculiarly distressing. On Tuesday last, he was walk ing out, with his rifle, in pursuit of game, when, in crossing a fence, near the Court-house, the load was accidentally discharged into his body. No one was with him at the moment; and, of course, the particulars cannot be known. He was found shortly afterwards,! still living, but before medical assistance could be procured, he expired. Mr. Stevenson has been for a number of years Clerk of the County Court, the duties of which he discharged in a most faithful manner. He was deserv edly much esteemed and respect ed by all who knew him, ami the melancholy casualty is regretted as the means of depriving the county of a valuably officer, and society of an excellent member.
