Ra.'eigh. September 1. 1836.
For five or six years previous to the
spring of 1834, a ner man of mine had
been much aifll cted with an ulcerated arm !
and hand, which rendered him almost ue
less. The nicer embraced that r.art of bis
arm from the elbow down, including his
entire hand, which was literally a mass of
putrefaction. A joint of one fj"ner, and a
part of the thumb, perished and dropt off.
A more distressing and hopeless case 1
have never beheld. It was abandoned by
his physician as incurable, except by am
putation of the band.
The best medical treatment bavin fail.
ed to relieve the man, I placed him under
the care of Mr. William W. firav. in this
place, who, with his Ointment, has effectu
ally cored t.-.e case, although the negro
was frequently absent, for weeks and
mouths together. He has been entirely
well for the last eight months, and 1 have
good reason to believe will continue so.

Treasury Order. This wise
and salutary measure, requiring
P specie payments for public lands,
is to be continued by Mr. Van Bu
' ren. It is daily becoming more
evident, that llie repeal of the Or
der would only have a tendency
to remove the present pecuniary
embarrassments from the commer
cial and stock-jobbing communi
ty to the banks, and thus by ena
bling the former to relieve them
selves by a heavy exportation of
specie, inevitably compel the lat
ter to suspend specie payments,
and thus throw the whole country
into confusion. We copy from
the Petersburg Constellation the
following remarks on this high
ly interesting subject: The New
York 'indav Morning News, of
the 2d inst. contains the following
important Postscript item from
Washington. We have no doubt
of its accuracy. Nothing could
be more ruinous at this moment to
the best interests of the country,
than the repeal of the Treasury
Order. Mr. Van Buren deserves,
ll a thousand fold, the thanks of the
y American people for his inflexible
determination to carry out one of
the wisest, as it is destined in its
J eventual results, to be, one of the
most beneficial measures of his il
lustrious predecessor's adminis
tration. The Federal Whigs will
jabuse timid friends censure, and
enweak ones probably desert him,
ffor this act; bur the bone and sin
ew of the land, the great body of
the people, those whose votes pla
ced Mr. Van Buren in. the Presi
dential Chair, will applaud the
firmness with which he devotes
himself to his country's welfare,
J disregarded alike of the vehement
it clamor of powerful enemies, and
": Li, .
tt i,,c itiiiuiisuances auu aisappro-
bation of, no doubt, very zealous
and very honest, but very weak-
headed and narrow-sighted politi-
nl cal Inenus.
J, Postscript Important from
Washington Treasury Order.
r-'By the express mail of yesterday,
pf we received a letter from a gentle
geman of this city, now in Washing
ton, informing us that Air. Van
qJ Buren has at length determined
to revoke or relax the Treasu
l ry Order of the 11th July. The
Cabinet held several meetings on
the subject, during the last week
A,Qt which each member gave his
opinions in full, on the policy of
revoking the Order. Mr. Van
. Buren, aiter hearing the views of
, all, decided to continue the order
n full force, upon the reasons sug
Igested by Mr. Butler, the Attor-i
ney General. Mr. Butler repre-
.1 . . U akI Ar mac m nit
senteci tnai, 11 me umu
repealed, the western and souoi
ivct,m hanks would not be ablv
jto keep their specie, and, while
' they parted with that, they would,
at "the same time, increase their
issues, and other facilities, to a
;. vast ' extent. The sDecie would
flow to New York in payment of
( debts due to the merchants and
jobbers of that city, for last year's
importations, and would be im
c mediately shipped to England, to
nav the fortv or fiftv millions
i'".' j
1 which we owe her, on account of
H those importations. In a few
months, our stock of specie, which
gnow exceeds seventy millions,
j would thus be reduced to less than
r, thirty millions, while at the same
time, the bank issues of paper
I would be greatly increased. The
t' consequence, he argued, would be
J a general crash of all the banks,
s and the total loss to the govern
- ment of its revenues which have
"accumulated in the deposit banks,
u He represented that the deposit
''banks will not, even under the
most favorable circumstances, be
able to pay the next quarter's in
stalment of the surplus ordered to
be distributed among the States,
; without greatly distressing their
debtors; and that, if the small spe
cie basis, which now barely sus-
i tains their circulation and engage-
i u i. l .ir :...
infills, suuuiu ue mucn uiiiiiuimi
ed, it would be idle to expect them
to pay one dollar of what they
owe to the government.
He also urged that, by the revo
cation ot the order, the specula
tions in public lands would be
vastly increased, and the whole
national domain, so far as it is
now subject to entry, would be
immediately bought up by specu
lators, with deposit bank notes,
not worth a farthing. The peo
ple, he further argued, who had
long been passive under all the
fluctuations of the currency were
becoming uneasy, and upon the
first explosion of a government
deposit bank, would demand the
re-establishment of a national
bank. The utmost prudence and
precaution would be necessary to
avoid that result.
Letters were also produced
from our minister at London,
from our consul at Liverpool, and
oihers, suggesting that every prac
ticable method should be resorted
to by the government, to retain
the specie now in the country.
They state that England is on the
brink of a great financial and po
litical convulsion, and that the
Bank of England will be obliged
to suspend specie payments, un
less .the efforts then making (or
procuring a supply from the Uni
ted States, should succeed; and
that the question, in fact, was,
whether the banks on this side of
the water, or on that, should first
blow up. The political distur
bances of England, says Mr. Ste
venson, are greatly promoted by
her financial embarrassments; and
if the latter continue, the former
must soon come to a crisis. If the
money power is crippled and em
barrassed, the democracy of the
country will triumph, and Ireland
will be emancipated. To send
our specie to England, at this cri
sis, would, therefore, destroy our
selves and aid the British lories in
their present bank struggle with
the people.
Air. Woodbury did not coincide
in all the above views.
This is the substance of the in
formation communicated to us
from a most unquestionable source,
and for the substantial correctness
of the whole things we freely
pledge ourselves to our readers.
Increase of Banks. Mr. Sec
retary Woodbury, in his Treasury
Report states that in 1830, the
number of banks in the United
States was 330and that on the
1st of January 1837, the number
of banks was 813 making an in
crease of 493 banks. In 1830,
the banking capital in the United
States was $145,192,208; in
1837, the banking capital is
$378,421,168, making an in
crease of banking capital to the
amount of $233,228,900.
The Surplus. By the notice
from the Treasury Department of
the receipts and expenditures in
January and February, which we
published on Mosii lay, it will be
seen that the surplus increased in
those two months only about one
million of dollars. Should it
continue to increase at that rati
through the year, though in truth
it will probably diminish, the
whole accumulation in 1837,
would be only six millions.
Yet the wise financiers of the
New York Express have magni
fied it to sixty millions, and the
Raleigh Star to forty millions
Globe, April 5.
flThe accounts winch we pub
lish to day of the state of the mo
ney market at the North are still
of a gloomy cast. Auother ex
plosion has occurred in New
York: the great house of St. John
has stopped paymeuf, carrying
with it a dozen others. Nearly
ninety houses in the city of New
York, have followed "tJie Jo
sephs," their liabilities amounting
to some sixty millions of dollars!
We need not expect to hear of the
end of these troubles for wo
months to comet Norfolk Her.
