SATURDAY, APRIL 21. ISll. pVVe learn from an authentic source, the following particulars of the unfortunate rencontre, in Marianna, Florida, between By thai R. Boll and John S. Rindo'ph, had occurred at a party, the evening before, and on the following morning Bell called on Randolph at the store of Mr. Ely, (Ran dolph being in Ely's employ as clerk,) and demanded of him an explanation of or apo logy for what had occurred I he previous evening. Randolph used abusive language in reply, when Bell threw at him a plough point. Randolph retreated into a back room, but immediately returned armed with a pistol and musket, the former of which he tired, the ball passing through Bell's hat. Bell then made some attempts to get at Randolph, but the counter intervening he was unable to effect his purpose, and was about going into the street, when Randolph pursued him and stabbed him with the bayonet which was attached to the musket whereupon Pell discharged Hsh the public prosperity. In deciding upon the adaptation of any such measure to the end proposed, as well as its conform ity to the Constitution, 1 shall resort to the Fathers of the great republican school for advice and instruction, to be drawn from their sage views of our system of Go vernment, and the light of their ever glori ous example. The institutions under which we live, my countrymen, secure each person in the perfect enjoyment of all his rights. The spectacle is exhibited to the world of a Government deriving its powers from the consent of the governed, and having im parted to it only so much power as is ne cessary for its successful operation. Those who are charged with its administration shotdd carefully abstain from all attempts to enlarge the range of powers thus grant ed to the several departments of the Go vernment, other than by an appeal to the Peopte for additional grants, lest by so doing they disturb that balance which the patriots and statesmen who framed the Constitution des:gned to establish between the Federal Government and the States composing the Union. The observance of these rules is enjoined upon us by that feeling of reverence and affection which hnds a place in the heart of every patriot for the preservation, union and the bless ings of union for the good of our clul- Iren and our children's children, through countless generations. An opposite course could not fail to generaie factions, intent upon the gratification of their selfish ends; to give birth to local and sectional jealousi es, and to ultimate either in breaking as under the bonds of union, or in building up a central system, which would inevita bly end in a bloody sceptre and an iron crown. In conclusion, I beg you to be assured that I shall exert mj self to carry the fore- going principles into practice during my administration of the Government, ami, confiding in the protecting care of an ever- , whi lo'sub- watchful and overruling" Providence, it vitahlv des-J shall be my first and highest duty to pre- linpf! tn nro.lncp :i son it of n o!ifhi:ir spr- i serve unimpaiied thc Iree institutions un- vilitv with the idlicial corps, which, iii or-1 d r which we live, and transmit them to dor to nnhnld the hand which feeds them, those who shall succeed me in their full - 1 : pies which will govern me in the general course of my administration oi none at fairs would seem to be due as well to my .f.-t vmi. In regird to foreign na il ihP trroundwork of my policy will be? justice. on our part 1o all, submitting to injustice irom none. line " r.nu Imislv cultivate the relations of peace and imitv with one ami all, it will be my most imDorativedutv to see that the honor of the country snail sustain no uicihimi. no a view to this, the condition of our milita ry defences will become a matter of anx ious solicitude. 1 he Army, which has in other days covered itself with renown, and the Navy not inappropriately termed the right arm of the public defence, which has spread a light of glory over the American standard in all the waters of the earth, should be rendered replete with efficiency. In view of the fact, well avouched by history, that the tendency of all human in . . . . i si 1 1 u t ions is to concentrate power in i lie lands of a single man, and ihat I heir ulti- matedownf dlh is proceeded fromthis cause, I deem it of the most essential importance that a complete separation should take place between the sword and the purse. No matter where or how the public mo neys shall be deposited, so long as the President can exert the power ot appoint ing and removing, at his pleasure, the a gents selected for their custody, the Com manderin chief of the Army and N ivy is in fact the Treasurer. A permanent and radical change should therefore be decreed. The patronage incident to the Presidential oflice, already great, is constantly increas ing. Such increase is destined t ) keep puce with the growth of our population, until, without a figure of speech, an army of office-holders may be spread over the land. The unrestrained power exerted by a sel fishly ambitious man, in order either to perpetuate his authority or to hand it over to some favorite as hi- successor, may which resulted in the death of the latter. A misunderstanding between the particsL lhc em)oymcnt ol u thc mC:,ns within oliject. his control to accomplish his The right to remove from olTirc jected to no just restraint, is inev sold yestefd'av at the board at 13 a 19. It i clear, then, thai capitalists have no confidence in these estimates, while the Uncertain Condition of legislative matters at Harrisburg is also calculated to prevent operations. No change of the hastimpor tance in other stocks, arid money remains as heretofore. United Stated Bank notes are still at a depreciation of from 13 to 14 percent. Factor? Twine. We have just seen a fine specimen of cotton twine,- made at the Faatory of the Messrs. Battle,- on Tar riv er, by machinery also made at the place bv a native North Carolinian. We take pleasure in recommending this article to" buyers and consumers, recause n is me product of home enterpr ise and industry, and may be bad oh better terms than the same article in the northern markets; and it is surely a wise maxim of economy, that we should never bring from abroad that which we can produce at less expense at home. We were also shewn a specimen of sewing thread, which satisfies us of the capability of the machinery tn produce as good an article 'in that tine, as can be made an v w here in the universal Yankee nation; and without spinning a Urn yum on a subject which twines- so much about the general in'cresf, or seeming to be te dious, we shall w nd up our remarks by commending the establishment to public attention and patronage, as it is important wherever the spirit of en'erprise is started to keep the ball.

" n :. i i. i- wiae i luviueuee, oeen lumoveu irom a mongst us, and by the provisions of the Constitution, the efforts to be directed to the accomplishing of this vitally important task have devolved upon myself. The feame occurrence has subjected the wisdom and sufficiency of our institutions to a new test. For the first time in our history the person elected to the Vice Presidency of the United States, by the hippening of a contingency provided for in the Constitu tion, has had devolved upon him the Pre sidential office. The spirit of faction, which is directly opposed to a spirit of a lofty patriotism, may find in this occasion for assaults upon my administia'ion. And in succeeding,under circumstances so sud den and unexpected, and to responsibilities so greatly augmented, to the administra tion of public afTiirs, I shall place in the intelligence and patriotism of the Peo pie my only sure reliance. My earnest prayer shall he constantly atldresed to thr all wise and all-powerful Ueing who made roe, and by whose dkpeusat on I am called to the high office of President of this Con federacy, understanding loranv out the principles of that Constitution "which 1 have sworn Ko protect, preserve, and de fend." The usual opportunity which is afforded to a Chief Magistrate upon his induction to office of presenting to his countrymen an exposition of the policy whic h would niidc bis administration, in the form of an in augural address, not having, under the peculiar circumstances which have brought me to the discharge of the high dulicsof ed Ttc me a hherU,'iled Stal en afford ecltQme,abnefCXpositionof the princi- economy should be re oi led to, and, as one of its results, a public debt in time of peace be sedulously avoided. A wise and patriotic constituency will never object to the imposition of necessary burdens for use ful ends; and true wisdom dictates thc re sort to such means, in order to supply de ficiencies in the revenue, rather than to those doubtful expedients, which, ultima ting in a public debt, serve to cmbarras thc resources of the country and to lessen its ability to meet any g'roat emergency which may arise. All sinecures should he abolished. Thc appropriations should he direct and explicit, so as to leave a limii- ,ed a share of discretion to the disbursing n- gents as may be found compatible with' the public service. A str ict responsibility on he part of all the agents of the Govern ment should be maintained, and pi eolation or defalcation visited with immediate ex po Uiun from office and the most condign punishment. 9 The public interest also demands tint, if any war has existed between the Govern ment and thc currency, it shall cease Measures of a financial character, now having the sanction of lal enactment,shall be faithfully enforced un il repealed by the legislative authority. Put 1 owe it to mjscll to declare that 1 regard existing en actments .is unwise and impolitic, and m a high degree oppressive. 1 &hall promptly give my sanction to any constitutional measure which, originating in Connies shall have for its object the restoration of a sound circulating medium, so essentially necessary to give confidence in all the trans' actions of life, to secure to in.l..kr.r just and adequate rewards, and to re-cstab- of heart and mind under these frowns of His providence, and still to bestow His gracious benedictions upon our Govern ment and our Country. JOHN TYLER. Washington, April 13, 1S4 1. The procession formed in New York, in respect to the memory of the late Presi dent, was 5 miles long, notwithstanding it snowed during the whole of the ceremony, with intense thickness. Mr. Van Huron joined in the procession. It is stated to have numbered from 14 to 15,00, and the streets so crowded that it was with diffi culty the procession moved along. Fay. Jour. Gov. Owen. Rut for this gentleman's characteristic modesty, he would be, at this time President of the United States. It has been stated in this paper before, that at the Harrisburg Convention, the nomin ation of V. President was urged upon his acceptance. He steadily declined the honor, however, thinking Gov. Tyler had stronger claims upon the party, and that his nomin ation would probably carry Virginia. That gentleman was accordingly selected, and, by the death of Gen. Harrison, becomes President of the United States. Rat. Reg. Money Matters.
