We have not seen the bill nor have we heard it read. When it is printed we shall notice its provisions more I particularly. In the mean time we must content g ourself with a few general reflections tsub. C ject. .i We hive more than once declared our firm con viction that the Banks of this State, were not 1 wholly to blame, for the necessity of cloaing their vaults and refusing to redeem their circulation at a time of general depression and suspension. It was superinduced by the course pursued by the d General Government. They were driven to it by a the mad fully and mischievous policy of the exe. entive. The public treasure was forcibly apdil- 6 legally removed from its legitimate depthitory C whoee It had been placed by law, and rescattered among a horde of anxioun. greedy pete whose ra pacity and avarice have alone been surpassed by more recent Subtreasurers. These pet bankl at once expanded their circulation. Notes were fly Ing in every direction, like leaves in the autumn winds. Heaps were is the hands of individuals who had never been bred even to the hope of ob taining smaller favors from the fickle goddess. In d counting their gains, men forgot that there ever had been units, ten, or hundreds,-their estimates ran into tens of thousands and hundreds of thon.* h sand.. Princely fortunes were to be realized in a a dny, and he was considered a perfect drone-a t drudge-a peer, simple, friendless wight, a crawl. ing worm, who could not get into bank and turn tihe keys ol the iron-room at will. The green table became a board of speculation as wild and extravagant as that which is held out by the de lusive but alluring faro. The Banks leok%4 upon the money of the gov ernment an a legitimate basis for extending loans o and discountas-money which they were liable to I be compelled to refund in gold and silver at a mt If ment's warning. They pursued a blind poliey, in ailling the Executive to put his plan intonernm tion. Like the silly fish they were easily gulled with the gilded batt. Next came the specie circular. Credit had been strained to the utmost limit It could not have gone it further. A mania forspeculatirg had become univer sal. Tirhe sudden fortunes acqured by the rite of real I eftnte made men eager to take up government lands . which were thrown into market., When the circular was issued, these lands could only be purchased with s gold and silver. Governmant would take nothing hut t the precious metals. Extraordinary drafts were madel to on timhe Banks. Thieywere daily compelled to pour out or theirvery life blood. In its stupidity or with a fiendish n, purpose, the government was constantly transferring at specie from point to point-requiring tie pets to dis gorge-and frequently to points ,where it wms not re d quired-loeving thoenbare and denuded, where it was absolutely necessary. These were saome of the causes which led to tit sena u pension of specie payments by the lBanks. But they wvrenot all. The Banks themselves aided in precipi. toting their own ruin. And our banks exhibited as d_ gross miemanegement as could be found tronughout the le union. They had adoptedtthe system of favoritism do lending immense aums to certain individuals, while s frtom others, all accommodations and facilities were at withheld. TheDirectors themselves as it weere, bet ; tned upon theipoils. They were enabled,,-they and other favorites, to embark in extensive speculations y frequently foreign to the natural routine of theie, sever io. at occupations, while others, actively engaged in trade, cd in commerce and the ordinary avocations o" life, were or denied the smallest and most trifllg loans. They ex Irs pended sums, the amount of which is astounding, in on purchasing real estate end in other speculations, while commerce and legitimate business were eufftled to guibh. The Banks were exclusivd, in their loans. They went on the principle that it was safer to lend all the er money to a few, and their directors among the few, who 'Y were extensively engaged in business or in speculation of some kind, than to have it distributed for the good and to promote the interests of a larger numbrr-al Is, though it might consist of the whole ecmmunily. It "seemed to them to promise greater gain! But it was y not o safe. 'Y, When the shock came,four it did come,like par. ne cel of bricks that had been placed in a row by the :t, playful boy, and ere made to fall one after ano i ther in rapid succession, these speculators, leaning ad on each other, found it impossible to maintain themsaelves They had to fall. The Banks, too, t- had completely used themselves up, and could aer sustain them no longer. The frst brick that tum in bled brought down another and an on until the to first question which naturally suggested itself on in. change, was not'who else is brokel' but 'who has E not fai!ed?' The Banks were nonptussed. These favored debtors they had sustained as long as they ino were able. When they withdrew the onl) prop id which held them up, they had to fall. The Banks ai oon found themselves in a situation which compell o aed them to loouk out for thbrir resources. But their SdeJabtorecould not meet their demands. Bankrupt , cy was the inevitable consequence. llow lung ' have they bean tin a situation which rendered it imposaible to furnish the medium of exchange and d, the accommodations for the purposes of commerce and trade, that it was draigned thny should fur' hie nish, when they were chartered? Now, when it g is absolutely necessary to the dealer in tit: staplrs by, and produce of the country, to have cer.ain ac oa- commtodations, the Banks have not tie means of t granting them. They are crippled-they hove ,y not the natural energier-tlhey have not r covot red tvt, from tihe severe paralsais, brought on, in a great m measure, by their own folly, or in bolstering up Ii embarrassed or speculative tavoriter. They were created to promote honest industry and give an nw impeaus to enterpris--toeid in developing thie im. r omense resources of the country. Say, have they noi, performed their dutyl We have another objection to the favoritism ex. 'Ir hibited by the Banks. Ilabsa given a facttiious im. er portanca to men, who have not been intended by nature or education, to lead in council or wield a - dictatorialauthority, yet has the command of the purle or a conaciousnes o uf their power of an noying whoever dare dispute their pretensione, ip thrown around these lordlings of the green table ea seeming importance which Ihey wield with an ne, arroganoe not only ludicrous, but absolutely die. t uusting.' It does give them the power over the timnid and the sycophantic. They exert it on all occaniona, anaumirg a right to oversee and sou perintend the political and pecuniary interests of Ot the citirzens. They are becoming eo inflated with aoif.importance, that it is laughable to asee tile airs and graces which they cut "before high heaven." As aremedy for these exiatinag evils, we propose the adoption ofa free Banking law. I is a sub jest which is well worthy the attention of our Ie gislature, especially at this time, when the chart ers ol the Banks and their conduct are to be in. vestigated. Under a law of this kind, we should not have overgrown institutionsa, dispensing favors and aseuming to control the opiniono and actions of the community. New York has adnpted the system. The legislature of Georgia, following the example of the Emrpire State, has authorized he Iisl atsj, Othhr ehi i th ealb tldadt the btesideration. .it is- rspeea. iiy r*commended tl to tt . ttennlaof-th.. ate.

His illuatrations were lively Vi and fullofhumor-- vein of wit sparkling through the whole epeech. The xeaellent correspondent of I the Baltimore Pstriot, says that there was perhaps seurcely a strangerpresent, with wjtou notions of o' Mr. Prentis's character and geniue, his first ap pearance did not jar in a more or lese degree, but a few minutes listening, was sufficient to make m them forget the figure, and to engage their minds entirely and exclusively with his subject, and the spirit and vigor with which he treated it.

Louisville .Jarket, Jan 4.-We learn by the City Gazette of this date, that the weather had moderat. ad during the two days previous, and there had been several slight attempts at rain, but the only effects produced by it,. had been to thaw the snow in the streets and to make them exceedingly muddy. The Gazette remarks: "The heavens are still overelnuded, however, and we may yet have a beneficial rain, although our hopes of it are faint." There is no Havana or Rio Coffee in the market; St Domingo2Oe. Some coffee had arrived from Salt River in wagons, and part of it sold at Iacts. No mackerel or molassea in market. Whiskey 48 cts, Flour $6 25 a $6 50. Sugar 20 eta. The Gazette remarks: " About 36 hhds have been received during the week from the mouth of Salt River, and sold at 20 cts-retail 5. A numberof wagons have been despatched to Flint Island about 50 miles from here biy land, for the purpose of bringing up sugar, ras there are, we understand, about 200 hhds at that point. It will command 20 cte on its arrival here. The partial thaw that has taken place, will make the business of wagoning, however, from that point very difficult, and if we have a heavy rain, it will have to be given over for the present entirely.

He has for several mornings past exposed to sale a supply of fresh cedfish, one of the greatest deltsa. ctes that could possibly be offered, and we are pleased to learn that he finds ready sale of the commodity. Mr Hotchkise deserves the thanks and steady support of those who live in the Upper Municipality iar thus obviating the inconvenience to which they were liable, in being compelled to seek theirsupplies of fish as the lower marker, a penalty certain members paid for the benefit of the bully.

No. 3. pa In my lat, I attempted to show, the imperfection of M sthe law peassed for the regulation of "vesoels propelled D. oes i r w ,r in pert by steam." A few more words on ill that subject and we shall conclude. The final provis. ions of the act, are unjust, if not illegal. We have al ways understood it to be a principle in penal law'that ir the accused are in all eases to be presumed innocent until proven guilty. Tlis ast reverses thin wholesome principle, and in every case of death by steam boat ne ire eidents, declares the officer, or officers of said boat shall n be held guilty ofmanslaughter, and if fund guilty, pun ly ished accordingly. In this cae unless the Capt. ran dy prove himselfinnocent, he must of course be punished whether guilty or innocent. If sach a principle in law be established, whose life, or property could he safe T We charge youwith theft,and the law on our sharge supposea you guilty until you can find a witness to clear you ofthe charge. Which it may not lie conven 'nt for you to do, and notwithstanding your innocence, 13 you may be pro-judged guilty by the law. The rteam. boat low pre.judges the officers of a boat to be guilty Ird of monslaughter, and prosecutes for that offence, wilb. as t the aid of a sworn witness or prosecutrl Would it not be equally just to prosecute aman for theft, with. n- out the aid of sworn testimony, and merely on the 5t. charges of an enemy to that effect, and unless the ac Or- cured could prove himself clear, (the one of proofres ting on the accused, how could hh escape plnishment however innocent I Such a principle of law isdestruc- S lir, tive of liberty and good order, and ought not to exist in 1 any aet orlaw of any free government. The law enacts that Boats shall use chain tiler in-. at stead of rope tillers. The design of the law, here. is r- good. And in sea or lake navigation, thoey can be adopted with perfect oafety; but in crooked rivers, d with rapid currents, such an are met with in the west, H1 Pilots tell us, the safety of a large boot is endangered by their use. When the Mississippi is high and a , strong current of 6 miles and in places 6 miles per tus hour prevailing, a heat in descenditg the stream, is very C ke diffiolt and almost impossible to steer,so as for it to be kept in the channel, owing to the unmanageable con. dition of the tiller wheel, which has often to he turned ter very suldenly, in order to bear off the boat from banks, or from coming in contact with another boat. By using o ar. chain tillers the danger of collision on the river b-tween a, boat,in greatly increased: and it is no less strange than trite, that more lives have been lost by boat. coin ing in contact, than by their being burnt up before they ot could reach shore. The only intances known of lives uP- being lost by rope tillers burning, were those of the St. try Martin and Ben Sherrod, and even if the latter had pos en sessed chain tillers, she coultl not have been run ashore, to for two reasons. One was, the Pilot was driven imme ain diately from his post by the flumes--ond the second rhe was, the place of lalding was such, that slte could not crs reach tie shore sufficiently near to make it safe to pan dis- engets.
