It was conceived and reduced to a system by that powerful combmation jof dif? ferent intellects, that Providence l al ways pro vides for great occasions, land much on the time principle that po wer has beeri obtain ed from Steam. In the face of all these immense advanta ges; however; our present Chief Magistrate now tells ns.lhat the General Government hasno power to aid the currency in its pre sent' crippled state, and consequently, that what has been heretofore done to aid this measure, and all tjjat Gen. Jackloo hais said and written on the subject of the currency, was all wroiiff and junconstitutional and calmly entreats us; to stop -all aur progress ive movement?, and go back to the i dark and hard moiiev aires, when men tilled the soil " of the . land-lord for the use of si shed and the offal of its products ! And our twp Senators in Congress ! 1 have Had a per sonal partiality for both these men, -but 1 am so astonished at their persisting In the support of this Sub Treasury scheme, that I am almost afraid to say any thing fabout them.

The next disease inOur monied affairs, I can xemember and I haz ard nothing in saying there never were two periods in the financial history of iany country more alike, than the years 814 and 15, to the present with only one ex ception : Then, the Government appeared to be honestly engaged in devising means to restore the currency: Now the Govern ment seems to be earnestly, if not honestly engaged, in endeavoring'to destroy the cur- rency. A, national bank was again resorted to, all difficulties vanished, and the cry was, PtTSM ALOIS G, KEEP" MOVING, t progress- incr,"and the Kke Americanisms, until the same cause (the want ot a national currency; has produced the same enects. l was?, op posed to a renewal plthe'&harter of the; late BankV oniirinclejxin my mind ever since, sTasehoecteoori the subj ect belie v jng h-Je charter, of nd Bank ought ever to bjfSMwed ; but, when necessary, to ere at new ones; with such new regulations and restrictions as experience might find to be necessary.

The following is the peroration of Mr Webster's great Speech, from which W have already published copious extracts : The Senator from South Carolina (said he) tells us that he will move off under the State Rights Banner, Move off, Sir From what ? From whom ? r rom us with whom he bu lately acted in concert? Sir (exclaimed Mr. WVebster with peculiar emphasis) Let him go ! I remain where I am; and have ever been. I stand on the Constitution, which is broad enough to sustain the liberties and prosperity of my country. I desire to ad minister the Government, so far as I have any share in its administration, in its true spirit. 1 desire to administer it as it its il lustrious framers were overlooking my con ductas if that eye of posterity, which is hereafter to scan our actions, were now in full gaze upon us. Standing thus between our ancestors and our posterity between those from whom we derived this legacy, nnrl thncA tr uro nrp tn KoniiPiith it? fcdi ,f gacrj tQ act m ts . spirit ; and feeling also, that if 1 am born tor any good in my day and generation, it is for the good of the whole country standing on that Constitution and under no sectional banner, I shall not be moved by sectional interests or feelings, or any sudden impulse, or temporary consideration. These Avails, these columns, all shall 5j From their firm base, as soon as I." I am ir the service of the United States, and all these States, and shall not be active in diffusing any sentiments calculated to weaken the brotherly love which binds to gether the different parts of this Union : I have nothing to do with sectional duty. 1 go for the U. States. On this broad altar I have paid my earliest, and all my political vows ! This People as far as my exer tions can go, shall remain united benefi cially, thoroughly, forever united for what ever the Constitution has decreed their U- nion ; united for their common defence their common renown their common glo ry, knit firmly together for the common happiness and prosperity. . IMMEDIATE RESUMPTION. The course of the New York Banks and the legislative ''facilities granted to them for immediate resumption of specie pay ments, are thus remarked upon by the Philadelphia U. S. Gazette : The New York Banks are .certainly en titled to the credit of adroitness. Thev have collected the bankers from other parts of the Union, urging upon them the necessi ty of an immediate resumption, by which alone, faith, and honor, and character can be preserved. In the midst of the discus sion, they procure a law from Albany, which allows them to issue notes, not pay able on demand like the notes of other banks' but payable in twelve sionths. These twelve months notes being issued and cir- culated in New York, will, of course, be come current notes, and 'as the depositors in.the banks are obliged to take current notes, they must of course take these twelve months notes. The whole of the deposits in the banks will thus be Daid in notes, for which there can be jio claim on mem lor a. year ; anu, as mey issue no . i f i . i notes payable on demand, of course there can ue no claim upon them lor com. The law, it is understood, authorises them to issue these notes during two years, so that in fact it is an actual postponement of the resumption for three years! This is what is called specie payments - This is imme diate resumption! This is the end of all the fine declamations about honorable pay ments ot debts. 1 he new law, it is aid, authorises the issue of twelve months, notes to the extent of one and a half of the capital of the banks, and as the whole capital of the New York banks is stated at thirty-four millions, they have an authority I to issue hity-one millions of paper irre ueemaoie ior a year ana mis, too, oy an act entitled "an act to facilitate the resump tion of specie payments. Facilitate ! It may well be called, to facilitate the payment rew v.ork Humbugs. We beg him to reserve a chapter for the latest ami oldest of the family, the New York specie pay ments, the immediate resumption next year! , SWAMP LANDS OF N. CAROLINA., Mr. Shawss Report, the publication of which we commence to-day, is well calcu lated to xttract the public attention to this iuwii,u. arjeci. jiyis .one, in wnicn the people of Ae State are deeply1 concern ed.

In the! counties of 1 Hjde and Tyrefl alone, it is believed inew Vare at least one hundred and Bfty thousand acres "of land, belonging to the .State, which ara comparatively inning expense majr reclaimed for the purposes of cultivation ; and which, in point of fertility, will vie with the richest lands, on tile Mississippi bottom. Individual proprietors of- swamp lands, whose enterprise and resources have enabled them to commence and persevere in at system of draining Jiave never failed to secure an abu ndant return fof, every expen diture Of labor and mooey. Many farms in the lower counties, deriving their principal value from lands of this description, could not now be .purchased at fifty dollars an acre ; and this estimate will not seem ex travagant when it is known, that upon second rate lands in Hyde, a farmer will count with confidence upon making from fifty to,sixty bushels of corn upon every aere put in cultivation. Nothing but skil ful management is now wanted tafemake the State lands equally valuable. . . Oxford Examiner. THE PUBLIC LANDS. A Bill, has passed the Senate to reduce and graduate the price of Public Lands. The obvious design -of this measure is to do indirectly what mis been the aim of the new States for sdme time pasty, to wit, sa crifice the interest of the old JStates to the cupidity of the new. Put the minimum price to75 cents per acre, with, the j5ower left to Government agents to say who shall buy at $5 and who at 75 cents, and our interests must suffer. Our property will go to buy partizans for this wicked, incompe tent, and disgraced Administration. Vill the old States will the people of North Carolina, after having made' known their will on this subject, sit tamely still to be fleeced and cheated by such a law t Our Senator Strange, we perceive voted for this sacrifice of his constituent's , property : our other Senator Brown dodged the question, on its two last readings ? What will the people of North Carolina say to being thus betraved by the agents whom they sent there especially to guard their interests. We call on every freeman, to aous him self against such flagrant, injustice ! Carolina J f ctichman. DUEL EXTRAORDINARY. As duelling is the prevailing topic of the day, and disquisitions are held upon it from he halls of Congress to the humblest tap- room, tne loiiowing extract, irom tne Per sonal Sketches' of Sir Jonah Barrington. may not be deemed out of place : Our elections were more prolific in duels than any other public meetings : they very seldom originated at a horse race, cock-fight, hunt, or anyplace of amusement : folks there had pleasure in view, and 'something else to do than to quarrel; but, at all clecti tions, or at assizes, or;-' in fact, at any place of business, almost every man, without any very particular or assignable reason, imme diately became a violent partisan, and fre quently a furious enemy to somebody else; and gentlemen often got themselves shot before they could tell what they were fight ing about. At an election for Queen's County, be tween Gen. Walsh and Mr. Warburton of Garry hinch, about the year 1783, took place the most curious duel of any which has occurred within my recollection. A Mr. Frank Skelton, a half-mounted gentle mana boisterous, joking, fat young fellow was prevailed on, much against his grain, to challenge the exciseman of the town for running the butt end of a horae-whrp down his throat the night before," whilst- he lay drunk and sleeping with:his! mouth open. The exciseman insisted that snoring at a dinner-table was a personal offence to every gentleman in company, and would therefore make no apology. Frank, though he had been nearly choa ked, was very reluctant to fight ; 'he was sure to die if he did, as the exciseman could snuff a candle with a pistol-ball ; and as he himself was rs big. as a hundred dozen of candles, what chance could he have ?' We told him jocosely to give the exciseman no time to take aim at him, by which means, he might perhaps hit his adversary first, and thus survive the contest. He seemed some what encouraged and consoled by the hint, and most strictly did he adhere to it. Hundreds of the towns-people went to see the fight on the green of Maryborough. The ground was regularly measured : and the menus oi .eacn party pitched a ragged tent on the green, where whiskey and salt beef were consumed in abundance. Skel ton having taken his ground, and at the same time two heavy drams from a botde his foster-brother had brought, appeared quite stout until he saw the balls entering the mouths of the exciseman's pistols, which shone as bright as silver, aud were nearly as long as fusils. This vision made a pal pable alteration in Skeluli's sentiments : he changed, color, and looked' about him as if he wanted some assistance.. . However, their seconds, who were of the same rank and description, handed to each party his case of pistols, and half bellowed to them 4 blaze away, boys !' Skelton now recollected his instructions, and lost no time, cocking tA his pistols at once ; and as the exciseman was delibe rately and most scientifLeaUy iomhig to his dead level,' as he called it, Skelton let fly. Holloa ! said the exciseman, hipping his level, 4 I'oi battered, fey4 jass!' The devil's care to you,' said Skeiton, instantly firing his second pisjtol. One of the exciseman's tefs then gave ay, and down he came on kis knee, x iaiming . Holloa !' holloa! you blood thirsty viUain I do you want to take m v lifer Why, to be sure I do !' said Skelton, Ha ! ha ! have I stiffened you, my boy V Wiselv iutWinir. however, that If Ka 1 ttil the exciseman recovered his legs, he j might hare a couple of shots to stand, he wheeled about, took to his heels, and got awalaslasts possible. The crowd shou ted;; out Skelton, like a hare when started, ran the faster for the shouting. Jemmy Moffit, his own second, followed, overtook, tripped up his heels, and cursing him for a disgraceful rascal, asked why he ran away from the exciseman ? Ough'Xhunder!' said Skelton, with his chastest brogue,? how many holes did the villain want, to have drilled into his carcase? Would you have me stop to make a riddle of him, Jemmy V The second insisted that Skelton should return to the , fields to be shot at. , He re sisted, affirming that he had done all that honor required. The second called him a coward V i ' By my sowl!' returned he, my dear Jemmy Moffit, may be so ! you may call me a coward, if you please; but I did it all for the best.1 The best ! you blackguard V Yes, said Frank : sure it's better to be a toward than a corpse ! and I must have been either one or t'other of them.' However, he was dragged up to the ground by his second, afteragreeing to fight again if he had another pistol given him. But, luckily for Frank, the last bullet had stuck ; so fast between the bones of the ex ciseman's leg that lie could not stand. The friends ofthe latter then proposed to strap him to a tree, that he might be able to shoot Skelton, but this being positively objected to by Frank, the exciseman was earned home; his fir3t wound was on the side of his thigh, and the second in his right leg ; but neither proved at all dangerous. The exciseman, determined on haling Frank, as he called it, on his recovery chal lenged Skelton in his turn. Skejton ac cejyted the challenge, but said he was tould he had a right to choose his own weapons. The exciseman, knowing that such was the law, and that Skelton was no swordsman, and not anticipating any new invention, ac quiesced. Then,' said Skelton, 'for my weapons, I choose my fists : and, by the powers, you.gauger, I'll give you such a basting that' your nearest relations shan't know you.' Skelton insisted on his right, and the exciseman not approving of this species of combat, got nothing by his chal lenge, the affair stopped, and Skelton tri umphed. The Bank of Cape Fear has declared a dividend, preparatory to admitting the new Stockholders of 4 3 percent, payable on this day. We understand that after making this dividend, and allowance for all bad debts, a surplus of about 2 per cent, was still left on hand.--Fayettcville Observer.

The last "Standard" contains a reply to our re marks in the "Register" of the 16th inst. in refer ence to the charge brought against Mr, Our br that print and others, of being identified wilh tho Abolitionists. For simply characterizing this alle gation against one of the chivalrous defenders of South, in mild language, as ungenerous and un grateful, we are, ourselves, accused of a breach of propriety ,and of having bestowed -unjust censure" on our neighbor. The only "censure" imputed by us, was, that the individual who copied the ex tract from Mr. Cut's biography, furnished a gar bled and disconnected statement, which essentially altered the purport of the passage. r This 'allega tion, the "6tandard"xbukl i)ot- deny, and therefora does not attempt it. If it be a 'breach of propne- ty," te have exposed this unfaiiness, we fear w shall be guilty of many simitar violations again' good manners.' There lives not the person: who, more than our selves, deprecates these personal controversies, thro' the colurnns of a newspaper as well, because we know the public take very little interest in them, as of their tendency to interrupt those kind feeling and friendly offiees, which it has always been oar pride and pleasure to cultivate and practice toward our professional brethren. But the chord of p"' vate friendship is but an'attehuated thread, compar ed with the lion-grip that binds us to our country; We cannot stand silently by, and see a deliberate attempt made to offer np as a sacrifice on the altar of Party, a distinguished Statesman, whpsp long, brilliant tad useful career in the service of his coun try places in clear and prominent relief, not only his friendship for the South, but his devotion to tb best interests and honor of bis whple country." Such a man is HENRY CLAY. Already is hi name insciibed in durable and lustrous character on th aoIJ of imroortamy, and envjr aqd detraction vainly strive to cast a Wqr upon the inscription.
