Several letters have ap peared in the dai
ly papers from holders o f American Stocks,
urging the British government to lend its
aid, at first by remonstrance and then by
more 'vigorous measures' towards the re
covery of their claims. That suggestions
of this kind should occasionally appear,
cannot be a matter of surprise when we
consider the extent of the injury sustained;
but it is to be regretted that they should
fiad insertion in our journals without one
word of correction, and thus go forth as
the expreasion of public opinion. At the
time when these persons parted with their
money, they •Were satisfied with the mere

LIGHTS AND SHADES. - -- -
The gloomiest day hath gleams !flight,
The cistkest wave hath bright foam near it;
And twinkles o'er the cloudiest night
Some solitaty star to cheer it.
The gloomiest soul is not all gloom;
Tho saddest heart is not all sadness;
And sweetly o'er the darkest doom,
There shines some lingering beam of gladness
Ditspa;r is never quite despair:
Nor life nor death the fuiure closes;
And rout(' the shadowy brow of cars
Will Hope and Fancy twine their roses
Advance in prices.—The New York
State and City seven per cent. stocks,
which were taken rather reluctantly a few
days ago at par. are now sought for at 7 per
cent. prem. We dare say that some of the
money which is employed to purchase
them, has lain idle in the banks ever since'
the stock was subscribed at par, and yet
the evidences of returning prosperity were
just as convincing then ae now.
In the year 1835 and 6, many men who
had held themselves aloof from speculation
through the whole mama the expansion,
(commencing in 1832 or earlier,) began to
conclude that they were certainly behind
the age; and that in feet a new 'era had
coirte.it pon the businesi of the world. They
adhered to their favorite doctrine tha't indus
try and economy were the paths to wea'th,
Until they were compelled to believe ibetn
selves mistaken. A number of such men
aban'oned the old way, and sought wealth
on the new plan, with the eagerness of
new converts. But within a couple of
rears they found, to their cost, that the
laws of trade were nut altered. So the
long continued deeiine in prices and busi
ness, has led many persons to thihk that
the world will not again exhibit the vigo•
roux action in business which was once en
joyed. But they will be disappointed, as
before. The principle; of trade are the
same forever. The state of exchanges and
the plethora (f money, announce the spee
dy return of activity in trade. M ed
ple continue to repeat, that there can by
no trade, f,r the country has nothing to pay
with. They see fleets of shins, barks and
brigs, arrive from the father of rivers: load.
ed with Ott! products of the West, they see
the products of the country pressing rpon
our ships until freights have trebled in their
rates; they see the folein exchanges pros
ving that the whu'e world is indebted to
us, our exports still pouring upon distant
countries, and the pro,-eeds brought bark
in,gold and silver, and piled up in the banks
until specie is a burthen; and yet, they say,
the people cannot buy, forithey have it , th
ing to pay with,
The coming y.ar will convince such 1 .
men, that the same causes produce the
same effects which they always have done,
and that the laws of trade are the same
now as they have been from the begin•
.—Pennsy hanian.
.Inother plan to pay off the State Debt.
—James Clarke, Esq., of Indians, as hon
est a man as Pennsylvania can boast in all
her broad domain, has made an estimate,
published in el uesday's Harrisburg Re
porter, for the payment of the State Debt.
He proposes to pay it off in twenty seven
years by establishing a sinking fund of 82,
000,000 at the start, and increasing annu
ally by small degrees, until the end of the
time, so that the last year the sum t equired
would be about $4,400.0(0. The plan
looks feasible.—Lane. latelligeneer.

The Brethren.
When a few of the antirnasonic leaders
conceived the design of calling a Conven
tion for the purpose of organizing their
party on distinct antiniasonie grounds,
they did not deem it prudent to let Biddle
of the American know any thing about it,
as he is considered rather a leaky vessel,
and might devulge the secret moves of the
opponents of secret societies before the
matter was properly matured. Biddle.
however; got wind of the scheme, and feel
ing that he had been treated rather scut•
vily, denounced the movement and those
connected in it with his usual recklesness.
The editor of the Gazette, who was quali
fied by his Masouic education for secret
movements, and who was one of the con•
spirators, lit on Biddle with a vengeance,
fur objecting to the.,doings of the sachems,
and chucked with delight at the manner
in which the editor of the American' had,
apparently, by his own fully, placed hirn•
self beyond the pale of the antirnasonic
party. But the designs of the couspira•
tors are at length made public; the name
of almost every antimason of indlence in
the county appears in the plot hatched by
the Court House clique, and the Ameri
can man, finding that he had made a
great mistake in denouncing the schemes
at fist, wheels about with the agility of a
Jim Crow, and at once approves the very
p o li(-y,3hat he at first condemned.- This
has given the Deacon an ague fit, an•l
in
his pap:: r of Saturday, lie raves furiously t,t
the impudence of the editor of the Amer ,
ican in daring to come back to the party
after he of the Gazette had considered him
effectually excommunicated. The Gazette
insisua in the strongest terms, that his
brother of the American, is a traitor to the
blessed epirit; that he is lost to all sense of
decency, and that he should not be trust
ed by the party.
Biddtebro doubt, laughs in his sleeve at
the rage of the Deacon; he feels certain
that the party has not forgotten that it was
partly through:his efforts that the etlitnr of
the Gazette was forced to renounce ma
sonry after.,, e4iad -become conductor of an'
antimasonie journal, and he fee's confident
that his little lapse will be overlooked in
considetation of the great service he ren
tiered the party by rooting out the nest of
Masons that had burrowed in the Gazette
office a year or two since.
Louisville waking up!—The citizens of

The Journal says a shock, "not less severe
than the one got up at Cincinnati," was
felt in that city on Thursday night last, a
little after 11. o'clock. We felt the shock
the same evening and about the same
time, but concluded to allow our sister city
,to lay first claim to it. We always did ad

THE RIIODE ISLAND BENEFIT, in Philadel
phia, last Monday evening, is represen—
ted to have been a most splendid affair.—
The Pennsylvanian says, that after the
pl4ing of Hail Columbia, Yankee Dood'e
St. Patrick's Day in the Morning, and tl
Marseilles Hymn, by a Band engaged for
the occasion, Col. Page, the chairman of
the evening, addressed the meeting, and
was followed by Mr. Sayles and Mr. Pars
menter of Rhode Isla❑d, an American
Star Spangled Banner was then pte•
sented to the Rhode Islanders by Mr. Hay
man, on behalf of the Committee of Phil
' adelphia, accompanied by an address, to
which the Rev. Mr. Balsh on behalf of
the Rhede Islanders made a teply.
From Florida.—The Savannah papers

We learn by this arrival, that the Mili
tary Post at Palatka is to be broken up
forthwith. This indicates that the sup
plies of wat are no longer needed,and that
therefore military operations have virtually
c eased.
The Bangor Whig says, that when the
pretty girls of that city attend a public

The ()repo meeting at Cu/du - nal was
full of eutlosiasua.
TlMila!nak meeting.
The meeting held on Someday evening,
at the Wa ebington Hotel, for the purpose
of deliberating upon' the policy`of choosing
Canal Commissioners by the people, was
about the must unfavorable place to delib
erate, we ever remember to have been at.
The committee presented two Reports,
one by the majority the other by a minori
ty: these were attached together on motion
of a member of the committee, and then it
was proposed to subjoin to both the Canal
Bill, at it passed the House, and to express
approval of it. Various efforts were made
to obtain the sense of the meeting upon
the report as amended, but without auc.
nese. A motion to adjourn until Wednes-
day next was entertained, but this was
superseded by a motion to adjourn sine
die, which was carried by a decided tifti.!
jority. A new organization 6f the meeting
was twice attempted, but as far as we
could see, it was not sanctioned by a ma•
ority.
We do not think there was any dissent
ing voice to the project of giving the elec
tion of canal commissioners to the people
—:he meeting was perfectly agreed on
that point. But we ate confide-it that there
were not more than twenty persons in favor
of giving to th. Legislature the power im
mediately to choose a new canal board.—
It is certain that if the supporters of that
proposition exceeded the number named,
they were still in a very small minority.
Altho' the meeting was one of lamenta.
ble confusion, we obsenied with pleasure
that there was a decided disposition to dis
countenance the exhibition of personal
ill•feeling and bitterness which certain gen
tlemen were disposed to make. It gives
a pleasing assurance that the democracy
will not bediverel from their great Nip - )
see to listen to or Attire in the Titivate griefs
or private quarrels of any member of the
party.

A resolution was offered to raise a committee
to enquire into the difficulty. The resolution was
adopted, Headley, Kidder and Darsie were ap

begged to be excused from serving, owing to his
'peculiar Flirtation" as the colleague of Mr. Sul

standing hour for adjournment arrived: This
most disgraceful scene was enacted in the face of
several I uudreds ofspeetators. The actors belong
to that party who profess to have"ali the decency"
in their ranks, and the audience was mainly corn
priced of their political friends who were In re as
Delegates to the Clay Convention.
The Clay Conv , ntion assembled at the Court
House yesterday. There were a good many del
("gates prcront, but they were principally drawn
nom the adjoining counties and Philadelphia.—
There were none I believe from the West, except
a stray one or two from your county. The city
turned out her bankers, brekete, tape cutters and
gentlemen, to the number of two or three hundred.
The convention was well furn;shed with public
Speakers. It was a fair index to the party it rep•
ie , ented, as it had more speakers and leaders than
rank and file.
This morning the Veto Message was read in
the House. It did not produce the explosion that
it would have done, had it been read when it was
received. It lay on the Speaker's desk for two
days before any action was had upon it, and
members had time to become calm. The time of
the House was nearly taken up to-day in present
ing petitions, Lti I in considering some amend

meats to the bill abolishing the Nicholson Court.
In the Senate the Bill to remove the seat of s-

The Savannah Georeansays thatjhers
has been formed in thatcity a systematic'
plan to annoy the foreign shipping and
carry off their s-amen.
The sailors, when decoyed from vessels
in port, are sometimes secreted in the
woods. and when vessels are short handed
and about to leave port, are shipped to oh
tain the advance money.
The Republican says;—
On Tuesday evening 14th Inst., a shore
boat,belonging to one of the Sailor Board
ing Houses in this city, and manned by
some half dozen desperadoes, boarded the
British barque Covenanter, and took there
from twelve sailors—nine on a first visit,
and three on a second. The master of the
barque had, unfortunately, an fire-arms,
and was therefore in no condition to make
resistance. The desperadoes insulted the
Captain, and fired several pistols at the
ship. This boat, or one in company, then
proceeded to the British barque Spring
field; Capt. Roy, which vessel was ready
for sea, and made an attempt to board her.
They were, however, fired into, and three
of the party wounded, one of them known
as 'the Mobile Slasher,' receiving a ball in
his forehead, and another in his mouth i
which knocked out three otitis teeth. A
bother by the name of Brady, received 3
buckshot - ran his body, and the other, whose
name we did not learn, was so badly
wounded that it is, expected he will not
recover. We are informed that he has
been taken to the Hospital. •
The names of two gentlemen were giv
en in who saw one of these piratical boats
leave the wharf—the sc,eindrels on boari
of her being armed with cutlasses, guns,
&c. 1, is said to be their custom to go
out every night, seeking to entrap as many
sailors as they may.
The master of the Covenanter, was in
town yesterday, and supplied himself with
arms. Two or three of the Captains also
came on the same errand. If our laws
cannot protect them, 'Thy then, we say,
in God's name, let them defend them-
