'Messrs. Brandon Co. Toward the close of the late session of the general assembly, a report was made by the committee on banks, implicating my conduct in respect to an exchange of paper, commonly called Steam Mill votes, for the p iper of the Corydon branch, conforma b y to an arrangement with the President "of" that branch and myself. Mr Lane in his communication to the legislature of the 4th Jan 1321, disclaims a knowledge
of any arrangement for that purpose. I now repeat the assertion of the fact, that he did agree to the issue of paper by the mother bank, oh account of the Corydon hianch.i'or my use, to be reimbuised in our notes, and without comment u y submit to the public the letters of N. Eving, T. Posey, E. Uoudiwot, addressed to mc, and herewith inclosed. Respectfully, B. PARKL.
May 14, 1S21. Vincennes, May 2, 1821. sm In answer to your inquiry concerning the transaction between Daniel C. Lane and yourself, with regard to the exchange of paper of the Corydon branch for Steam Mill paper, as well as I can recollect, about the 7th day of March, 1820, D. C. Lane csqr. came to Vincennes to make some arrangement with the bank of Vincennes on behalf of the State. f After some conversation with him about the difficulty the branch at Corydon experienced in making exchage for her paper, not having other paper to offer for them, he, Lane, enquired of me, if I thought you would exchange with him Sft-im Mill ninrrfnr thnt of the Corvdon
branch. I told him I did not know. He Ki -iTiked mc to walk with him to see you 1 agreed, Sc we went to your house. The business was introduced and an arrangement was made between you and him for ' the exchange of a certain amount, which I do not now recollect You observed to mr. Lane that you had but few notes on t hand signed but that some be signed, and that you would forward L.. them to the Corydon branch by ths fir&t
safe opportunity, and if none offered befoie, that you would take them on when you went to court in May. Mr. Lane then directed me to tell the cashier of the Vincennes bank to let you have notes on the branch at C orydon, which 1 did This is all 1 now recollect with respect to that ti autaction.
As it regards my letter of the 23d April, 1820, to D. C. Lane, esq. it had noV ing to do with the above transaction. It was merely a private letter to, as I believed, a private friend, on the subject of a loan, which you as the agent of the Steam Mill Com. wished to make from that branch, and why mr. Lane should so far deviate from the path of honor, as to betray private confidence I cannot account, but it appears to have been begged in, to bolster up his assertion which he had declared in the report to the legislature. -I am, sir, respectfully, your obedient servant, NATH.

Blackford, cashr. and dated at t .e time staled in the notes, (Ft b. 3i, 1818.) Mr. Lane was in Vincennes about the middle of March, 1 8 0. I afterward understood fmm mr. Kwing that an arrangement had been made between you and Lane for an exchange of paper, and was directed to deliver you what you received. E. BOUDINOF, Cashier. (Copy )
Vincennes, Airil 7, 1821. dti .a. sir In reference to your enquiry touching an insinuation contained in the address of Daniel 1.. Lane to the legislature of th 4th January last, that the exchange of paper, and the application for a loan were one and the same thing. I have to state that they were distinct and independent transactions the branch paper, with a view to an exchange, having betn obtained prior to your visit to Corydon the Utter part of April 1820, when an application for a loan was made, and which was not obtained. Respectfully votirs, TUGs. POSEY. The hon , B Parke. (Copy.) INTERESTING NEWS. A letter from our correspondent af New York, wiitten on Wednesday at noon, informs us that the ship Marth had just arrived below , in 37 days fiom Liverpool, having left England on the 25lh of March, and that she brings news ol a battle between the Austnat s and Neapolitans in which the Austrian! WERE DKFEATKD. Xat. Inttl. Encouraging to Manufacturer We understand the last annual dividend of the Waltham manufactory was 2" perct. n the nominal capital. tfiid 30 per cei.t on the amount actually paid in. And
yet cottons f the same quality ate theapei to the consumer than they used to be wnen imported from abroad. Bout. Cent. Advices from St. Thomas, received by the savannah Jacket, under date ot the loth inst. confirm the information of the intended renewal of hostilities on the Main, and add, that Carthagena had followed the cxan pie oi Muiacuybt-in declaring tor the Patriots. Phil Uaz. Bluliv. Feb. 17.
t It is said that prince Metteinich and count Bernstorff arepeifectiy agreed in their view of the present state of Europe ; and it is thought that a Prutian declaration against the Neapolitans, draw n up in the same spirit as that of Austria, will be drawn up immediately. RECIPE. I have lately keen an application for Sore Eyes, rapid in its good effects and so simple and cheap, that the poorest and most ignorant can obtain it. Take small sticks of sassafras ; split them in four pieces ; put them in a vessel with cold fresh spring water ; they impart a glutinous matter to the water ; wash sore eyes in this liquid, which will euro them without sniaiting or heat. The poor suffer most h orn this disease. Anur Farmer. SCRAPS. French crowns and five fianc pieces, area egal lender by the laws of the Tinned States, until the 25th cf April, 1822, being continued as such by the act of the
3d of March, 1 82 1 . There is no provision for the part of these coins. A letter from Buenos Ayrcs, dated November 10, says since the beginning of this year we have had no less than sixteen overnois in fact, we get so used to these things, that we do not think much o them.
