Death of Heze/lzicth Ni'lcs.—VVe. regret to
learn that this event, which his friends have
for some ti lie anticipated, took place at Wil-
mington, Delaware, yesterday morning. He
had been, for several years, in declining
health, the result of a life of great labor, as
the publisher of the “Register,” which has
rendered his name immortal. Mr. Niles
‘was a Printer, by profession, a man of strong
and ardent feelings, of considerable talent and
.of an industry so untiring that he achieved
results which inenof superior intellect, but
less capable of labor, would have failed to ac-
complish. He was, besides, ofa frank, hon-
arable, independent and truly republican
spirit, simple in his manner and habits, iffec-
tionate to his family, liberal to those whom
be employed in the prosecution of his busi-
ness, disinterested and public spirited. His
life was one. of great usefulness, an';l' few men
in our country have done more to connect
their names, in an honorable manner, with
the public enterprises in which the welfare
of society is conceroed.~——Balt C.-iron.
Resigimtioii of ilfr. Bi«.l(1le——IVo should
be all bl-adly off for a paragrapli if some event
‘of importance, such as war or rumors of war,
resignations and appointments of importanc_e,
running away of sub-treasurers, &c. Sac. did
not occasionally occurto lighten the burdens
of newspaper writers, and create subjects of
conversations and surmises. Mr. Biddlt-.’s
resignation, sudden and unlocked for, created
a panic, which is very easily created in these
times. Stocks wentdown and wcntup; they
went down under the supposition that he was
i_(’-]lll.'l[ll'lg a sinking ship, and they ran_ up
again on ascertaining that the Bsiuk was in a
prosperous condition, and that severe labor
and delicate health were the only causes of
resignation. It was a regular clock affiiir,
“ Here she goes—-there she goes." But 1 _ r.
Biddle having gone out ofthe Bank,,the next
question was, “ how are we _to dispose ol
“ Appoint him to the Treasury, and
Send \Voodbury to England,” says one.-—
"Nonsense," s iys another, “ it is too absurd
to think about ; Van Buren could not possi-
bly be so very inconsistent.” VVe have our
own notions on these matters, and do not
think it so very absurd as some may imagine.
iTlie American Sentinel, ii strong administra-
tion p:ip._-.r, speakiiig of this resignation, says:
" \V'li;ttevcr may have been said by lieati-d
partizans, in disparagemcnt ofthis gentleman,
in consequence of the political warfare that
was carried on for several years between the.
General Government and the B.'.tlll{ over
which Mr. Biddle presided, it must be con-
ceded by every man in this coininunity com-
p..-_tent to ju-tlge on the question, that he has
managed the afiiiiizs ofthe bank with consum-
mate. skill, during a period of unexampled
pecuniary embarrassment, and earned for
, liimselfa reputation as a fiiiaiicier, unr_ivalled
in this country, and not surpassed in any
other. ' He carries with him into his retire-
ment—if indeed he s/u1..’l be syfiei-erl to re-
main in reliremcii.t——the. best wislies of the
commercial community of the Union l"
This is from an opponent, let it be remem-
bered. The little Sun, of this city, adminis-
tration if any thing, says, this morning:
“The only causes assigned by Mr. Biddle
in his letter of resignation, are, impaired
health, and a desire for retirement. Rumor,
however, immediately connected his resigna-
tion with an appointment to the office of Sec-
retary of the Treasury ; which rumor was
strengthened by the reported resignation of
that office by Mr. Woodbury, and the degree
of intimacy which has for some time past ex-
isted between Mr. Biddle and the President
and his cabinet. It received-further counte-
nance from the fact that Mr. Forsyth _had
been in Philadelphia all last week, and was
frequently during that time in close confer-
ence with Mr. _B’ddle. The Washington
papers of Saturday, however, contain no inti-
mation of resignation by Mr. VVoodbury, and
the report is certainly premature, if not with-
-out prospect of future realization. “Individ-
ually, we regard the appointment of Mr. B to
the office of Secretary ofthe Treasury, as far
from being the most unlikely thing in the
world. It would be one of the happiest
events for the financial interests ofthe govern-
ment and the country at large, that could
possibly take place, and would, withal, be a
master stroke of political policy on the part
ofthe President”
VVe let these things pass for what they are
worth. Since General Jackson laid illegal
hands on the deposites, and introduced his
ultra experiments on the currency, fifty
millions of dollars have been lost by men in-
business, to say nothing ofthe aggregate na-
tion-il loss It is time that something should
be done for the country——_thar,-separate and
apart from personal or political considera-
tiois, the Treasury Depaitment should ‘bl’

that shocks to credit, ruinous interruptions to
44 _ 2 _
commerce might glide on smoothly and un-
interruptedly. On this-account we should
hail the appointment of Mr. Biddle as a pub-
lic blessing, and preposterous as some may
consider it, we are of opinion that it will hap-
pen!—N. Y. Star.
THE END (IF THE WAR.
The last Eastern Mail brought us the of-

agreement or understanding between Gen.

existing between them. as well as to the
earnest desire of Gov. Fairfield and his Re-
publican friends to avoid a collision between
the two great families of the Anglo-Saxon
race, the country is indebted for this fortu-

hands of the Federal Government, to which
it rightfully belongs, and no doubt will re-

its importance merits. _

Sir—I have the happiness to enclose here-
with two copies of the arrangement entered
into through my agency, between the Go-
vernor ofMaine and the Lieutenant Governor
ofthe province of New Brunswick.
The copy of my official note to Sir John
I-larvey, with his acceptance of the arrange-
ment, is in the hands of the Governor of
Maine, and another copy ofthe same official
note, followed bythe acceptances ofthe Lieut
Governor and the Governor, was yestei-day -
traiisinittcd by me to Sir John I-lziiiivey. At
the same time I sent him copies o{‘two.orders
which were yestei-dri y issued by the governor
of Maine. ; the fiist disbaiiding the tlioiisand
detached militi-.1 which has been held in re-
serve at this place, and the second recalling

&c.. a general declaration to this efli-ct I
That it is not the intention ofthe Lieut. Go-,
vernor of her Britannic. Majt-st_v’s provincei
of New Brunswick, under the expected re-‘I
newal of H9-,Q’OCl'lIl0llS between the Cabinets;
of London and Washington on the subject ofl
the said disputed territory, without renewed,
instructions to that effect from his govern-l
meat, to seek to take military possession of
that territory, or to seek by military force to,
expel therefrom the armed civil posse, or the
troops of Maine.
Should the undersigned have the honor to
be favored with such declaration or assurance
to be by him communicated to his e.\'cellcn-
cy thteGoi'ei‘tioi‘ of the state of Maine, the
uiulersigned does not in the least doubt that
he would be immediately and fully author-
ized by the Governor of Maine to communi-
rate to his excellency the Governor of New
Brunswick :3 corresponding pacific declara-
tion to this effect:
'l‘liat in the hope ofa speedy and satisfac-
tory settlement, by negociation between the
Govcrnm- nts of the United States and Great
Britain, of the principal or boundary question
l).'l\‘Vt'€ll the states of Maine and the province
of New Brunswick, it is not the. intention of
the Governor of Maine, without renewed in-
structions from the Legislature of the state, to
attempt to disturb by arms the s:-iid province
in the possession of the Madawaska settle-
ments, or to :-.ttempt to interrupt the usual
coinmiinications between that province and
her Majesty’s upper provinces ; and that he
is willing in the meantime, to leave the ques-
tion of possession and jurisdiction as they at
present stand; that is, Great Britain holding
in fact possession ofa part of said territory,
and the Government of Ma_ine denying her
right to such possession; and the state 0
Maine holding in fact, possession of another
portion of the same territory, to which her
right is denied by Great Britain.
VVith this understanding the Governor of
Maine will, without unnecessary delay, with-
draw the military force ofthe state frbm the
said disputed territory—leaving only, under
:1 land agent, a small civil posse, armed or un-
armed, to protect the timber recently cut, and
to prevent future depredalions.
Reciprocal assi.ii':inces of the foregoing
friendly character having been, through the
undersigned, l['ll;Pl'CllllIlg'l‘(l, all danger of col-
lison between the immediate parties to the
controversy will be at once removed, and
time allowed the United States and Great
Bi-i't-tin to settle amicably the great question
of limits.
. The under.-:igned has much pleasure in re-
newing to his excellency, Major General
Sir John Harvey, the assurances of his an-
cient high consideration and respect.
VVINFIELD SCOTT.
To a copy ofthe foregoing, Sir John Har-
vey annexed the following:
The undersigned Major General Sir John
Harvey, Lieut. Governor of her Britannic
majesty’s province of New Brunswick, hav-
ing received a proposition from Major Gen-
cral Winfield Scott, of the United States
aamy, of which the foregoing is a copy, here-
by, on his part, signifies his concurrence and
acquiescence therein.
Sir John Harvey renews with great plea-
sure to Major General Scott, the assurance
of his warmest personal consideration, re-
gard and respect.

'7,’-'. To a paper containing the note of Gen.
Scott and the acceptance of Sir John Harvey,
Gov. Fairfield annexed his acceptance in
these words :
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
Augusta, March 25, 1836. l
The undersigned, Governor of Maine, in
consideration of the foregoing, the exigencv
for calling out the troops of Maine having
ceased, has no hesitation in signifying his en-
tire acquiescence in the proposition of Major
General Scott.
The undersigned has the honor to tender
to Major General Scott, the assurance of his
high respect and esteem.
JOHN FAIRFIELD.
In pursuance ofthe above, we understand
that Gen. Scott has interchanged the accep.
tances of his proposition by Lir-nt. Gov. Har-
vey and Gov. Fairfield, and that Gov. Fair-
ficld immediately issued orders recalling the
troops of Maine on the disputed territory, and
organizing a civil posse to take charge. of
the same and prevent depredations The
troops collected at Augusta were to be dis-
cliarged forthwitb.- So the war of the dis-
puttd boundary is for this time at an end.

tion of the civil posse, that is to be held by
that state in that territory. The papers so
transmitted, bore the signature of the go-
vernor of Maine, or that ofliis Adjiitant Geri-
eral, and were officially certified by me.
I trust the arrangement between the Go-
vernor and Lieut. Governor, together with
my humble agency, in bringing it about, will
be satisfactory to the President and the De-
partment. The arrangement, 1 have no doubt,
will be executed by the parties to it in good
faith and in cheerfulness. In haste,
I have the honor to remain,

Governor of New Brunswick, we add the
following:
Government House,
Frederickton, March 23, 1839.
My Dear General Scott—Upon my return
from closing the session ofthe provincial le-
gislature this day, I was gratified by the re-
ceipt of your very sat’-sfactory communica-
tion ofthe 21st inst. My reliance upon you,
my dear General, has led me to give my
willing assent to the propositions which you
have made yourself the acceptable medium
of conveying to me, and I trust that as far as
the province and state respectively are con-
cerned, an end will have been put, by it, to
all border disputes, and a way opened to an
amicable adjustment ofthe national question
involved. I shall hope to receive the con-
firmation of this arrangement on the part of
the state of Maine at as earlya period as may
be practicable; and as it is my intention to
proceed to VVoodstock early in the ensuing
week, I request you to have the goodness to-
address it me at that place.
1 shall certainly use my best endeavors to
protect the timber on the valley of the St.
Jol n, within the disputed territory, from dep-
redators, and shall probably place, for this
purpose, a small civil force at the disposal of
the warden. , .
I grieve to learn that there is so little chance
of my seeing you upon the present occasion ;
but I wish you to give me some ground for
holding that I may have that high gratifica-
tion at as early a period as may be compatible
with your many important and arduous
duties.
Believ me to remain, my dear general,
with sentiments of warm esteem, regard and
respect, your faithful friend, (Signed)
J. HARVE}.
P. S. I readily consent to all my letters to
you, being considered as semi official, and
thank you for the suggestion.

£13“ Brandon money isin a bad way.——
The Vicksburg Whig relates of it thata gen-
tleman with his pockets well filled with Bran-
don, was lately accosted on the road by a fel-
low armed with pistols, Bowie knives, and
other ugly instruments with the usual salu-
tion of ‘your money or your life.’ The gen-
tleman handed over his wallet, No you don’t,
stranger. I scams Brandon.’
\Ve believe, however, that Michigan or
VVild Cat money, has been in as low repute
as Brandon rags. An Illinois paper says,
that a fellow not long since was taken up for
stealing it from the Bank, and, when on his
trial, the Cashier gave evidence against him,
he replied that the Cashier was the last man
by whoinihe. expected to be prosecuted, for
that when his notes were below par, he was
the only man who took them.
Easy Method of Detecting the Counter-
feit Coin now in Ci-rculatio'/t.—'l‘he follow-
ing simple experiment, which has laid the
foundation of. one of the most splendid of
modern scienées, readily enables any person
to discover spurious coin. Take aclean slip
ofcommon sheet zinc, about two inches by one
half, and lay it upon the tongue; place a
genuine silver coin under the tongue, and on
bringing the silver and zinc together, a pun-
gent and disagreeable taste will be perceived.
Substitute, now, a coin suspected to be coun-
terfeit, in the place of the genuine coin, and
a very slight, if any, taste will be perceived.
The false coin of h.-ilfdollars. dimes. and half
dimes. is made mostly of German silver, and
produces scarcely any galvanic action with a
price of zinc. The above test is almost infal-
lible, and recommends itself from its simpli-
city.
Some wag in the west, who cannot forbear
to perpetrate a joke, when occasion falls in
his way, even though it be one of serious and
melancholy interest, suggests that the govern-
ment might soon put an end to the Floiida
er! Six months, he says. would be sufficient
to drive, by this system, every savage out of
ghe country.
