Albert Gardner, a sailor, who came to this port a short time ago, com mitted suicide, on Monday last, by hanging himself with his handkerchief. This is the third wretched example of the effects of intemperance which has been eel before the citizens of New bern within three months. Neicbtrn Sent. Death by Lightning. Mr. Thomas Marshall, a young man about 22 years of age, was kill ed by lightning, in Montgomery county, on Wednesday the 13th ult. while walking over his plan tation. Salisbury Car. Sudden Death. Alfred II. Powell, Esq. died at Winches ter, Va. on the 3d inst. after an illness of little more than an hour! At the moment the aw ful summons reached him he was engaged in arguing an im portant case before the County Court, and had proceeded for fifteen or twenty minutes with unusual ability, when he sud denly faultered and sunk into his seat, with barely strength enough to utter a word or two to apprize his friends of his si tuation. . Smuggling. Every day we live and learn. We recollect once reading a work on politi cal economy, written in Prus sia, in which one of the strong est arguments urged against ! iiigii uuues, was, nut the pro tected monopolists would them selves turn smugglers, introduce foreign goods clandestinely into their manufactories, sell them as their own production, and pocket the duty.! Such con duct, however, in this country, was too improbable to occur, and we have, therefore, never employed this argument against our system. We have now rea sons for believing that we have over-rated the morality of our countrymen. A gentleman from Mississippi, with whom we have! lately conversed, and who ia re cently from. New-Orleans, As sures us that there are strong suspicions entertained, in that quarter, that Sugar has been smuggled from the West-Indies itito Louisiana, and sold for home-made. Any pqrson who will east his eye on the map will discover that Louisiana pos sesses a sea-coast extending westward from the Mississippi to the river Sabine, which di vides it from the province of Texas. This coast is about 250 miles in length, and is ac cessible by lakes and inlets, and includes the district called At:a kapas.

Banner Consl Banking System. Our rea ders will perceive, by atji udver timcnt in one of the following coumns, that a Bank is opened at Baltimore, by that highly re spectable and responsible firm, J. 1 Cohen, Jun. & Brothers, wh( offer to pay interest upon depsites at a more liberal rate than usual, thus offering per haps the best safe opportunity for temporary investments of money that is presented to the public. This is not the only indicition that we have seen that tie system of Banking is to undergo a great change in the country, in the course of which privatoBanks will in a great de gree supersede the small incor porated; Banks of small capi tal.

New-Fork, QFFER FOR SALE, the largest and most complete assortment of Earthenware, Glass, China, plain and gilt LookingGlasses,$c. which the New-York market will afford, comprising every tyle and variety of the newest patterns. Thev return their most cordial thanks to their friends in the Southern States, for their support in the persecution now carrying on against them, for their re fusal to join a combination in fixing one tariff of prices for Crockery throughout the trade. It is mainly attributable to the influence of our Southern friends that we have been enabled to survive thus far, in this most trying situation; exposed to the combined influence and capital of the whole trade, endeavoring to effect our ruin and expulsion from business. We pledge ourselves to our friends to give them every satisfaction in our power as regards the quality of our goods, the excellence of our packers and the lowness of our prices for cash or city acceptances; and in return, so licit from them a continuance of their patronage, and particularly request those who have influence with their friends to exert it in our behalf, as we trust the cause is one they are all in terested in, and much benefit will ac crue to us from their friendly acts in this way. It has been said, the com bination was broken up. As it re gards prices, this is true, and all, we think, friends or foes will allow that we have effected this change; but we do assure our friends, that at no peri od since we commenced our system of unshackled prices were we in great er want of assistance than at the pre seut moment. This combination of men are leaving no means untried for effecting our ruin, that thev may re vive the old system: our credit and character are assailed in every shape, our importations waylaid and stopped in every instance where threats are sufficient to intimidate the manufac turers from supplying us; in fine, no vexation or trouble which the ma lice of men could devise has been ne glected in this struggle to subdue us. Wc once more call upon every friend of a free trade to come up to our sup port, & pledge ourselves to give them no cause to repent of their liberality. T. J.

JAMES ELLINOR. April 9, 1831. 34 BickneWs Reporter Counterfeit Detector, & PRICE CURRENT. npHE first year of this publication having been concluded, the "Re porter" will hereafter be published weekly as well as semi-monthly. We feel grateful to the public for the libe ral patronage awarded us, (having now a more extensive circulation than any other newspaper in the Uni ted States,) and shall leave no mea sure unresorted to, in order to render this journal valuable in all respects, not only to merchants, banking insti tutions, brokers, and keepers of ho tels, but to the community in general. We have engaged the literary assist ance of several gentlemen well known as writers, and have correspondents in all the principal cities and towns in the United States. We also re ceive weekly more than five hundred newspapers from different parts of the Union, so that whatever information may be circulated through the medi um of the "Reporter," and the re sources from whence it is derived, we can confidently state, may, in all ca ses, be relied upon as correct. Bank notes are being counterfeited in every direction; and on the arrival of every vessel from Europe, or the creation of every national excitement, the stale of the market varies. Every person should, therefore, be possessed of some certain guide by which all such information might be received by the earliest mails, and at such a rate as not to render its possession an exor bitant tax. Such a journal is exactly what we endeavor to render the "Re porter," in an effort to accomplish which, neither pains nor expense will at any time be spared on the part of the publisher. Every number will contain a carefully, corrected Rank Note List, List of Broken Banks Prices Current, Prices of Gold, Prices of Bank and Insurance Stock, and a description of all Counterfeit and Al tered Notes in circulation throughout the United States, and all suchTnfor mation as is likely to throw I iy Ht wy on the subjects embraced in The de sign of this journal. The latest for eign news, together with much origi nal and well selected matter, will aiso be found in the columns of the "Re porter. ' 1 he terms of the weekly hublica tion are S3 ner annum the snm;.. monthly 52 single copies 12J cents. ROBERT T. BICKNELLy " Exchange Broker, No. H9,Ches nutstreet,'Philadelphiat Pa.
