Calhoun, for a copy of his Speech on the Graduation Bill. We will publish it in our nezt We publish to day, some extracts from *The address of the Hon. Chas. Shepard; of North Carolina, to his countituents." We regret that we cannot give our teaders the whole of it. Mr. Shepard gives a frank snd manly exposition or his political o pinions, and shows satisfactorily, the re latiin, iil hich he now stands to the Ad ministtofi an.;ration. New ocking Chair,-A few days'stnce, we saw for sale at the Hotel of M~r. C. J. Glover,-ih this place, a Rocking Chair of a peculiar construction. It was well cush ioned in the seat, sides and back, and even had a. cushioned foot-board. It rocked forward like an ordinary chair, or lateral ly, resembling in its motion, a Steam Car tinder'way, on a Rail Road. Thte feet are fixed on rollers, and the chair could be easily moved about. It could be converted at pleasure, into a sofa, on which the invalid might rest his aching limbs, or on which thme mnn or busi neas might lie, after the fatigues of the day, and think of new commercial opera. tionsf~or on'which the'gentleman might recline, and' enjoy what 'the poet. Gray calls the very perfection of earthly happi ness-namely the perusal of new novels. -We at first thought that it would suit us admirably,. in whicel'to sit, and write our learned editorial articles, but on sober second thought, which Mr. Van Buren says is always 'the safest, we concluded that it would be better to keep our plain windsor chair a little longer. This rock-, ing chair was plain but handsome. The price was 365. We are informed that all kinds, froin the plainest to thae most ele gant, can be purchased in Hamburg. A hemy~ debt to pay.-We extract the following from- the Charleston Courier. In the Court of General Sessions for Charles ton District, Judge Butler proniounced the gallo ving seintence: "The Stat., es. F. Russell-Larceny. Defendant to .receive thirty-nine, lashes, at the public whipping post, in instalments, two of ten and one of nine lashes, on tbe first Saturdays in March, May and June next respectively, and to be imprisoned for three months thereafter. South Westernt Rail Road Bank.-A Branch of tiiis Institution has been estab lished in Knoxville, Tennessee, and D. A. Deaderick, Esq. appointed Cashier. Fire in Boston.-Thirty -five btuildings were destroyed by fire in this city, on the 24th ult. .The loss is estimated at from fifty to sixty thousand dollars. When the fire broke' out,-the thermometer stood at 9 degrees below zero. Fire in Elibabeth City, N. C.-A most destructive fire broke out at that place, on the 20th ult. Property amounting to about 38,000 was destroyed. Mississippi.'-'The Hon. John Hender sora Whig, b~as'heen elected from this State to the U. S. Senate, in the plae of R. 3. iWinkcr reirned.. Jupfler and the 1rogs.-In ancient times,. there was a community of little people vulgarly called Frogs. They were pros perous for a long term of years, and every famliy was contented. At length some dissatisfied spirits rose up among them, and petitioned Jupiter, the King of Gods, Men and Frogs, for a Ruler over them. Jupiter was very angry and sent them a huge Snake for a King. For a time the Frogs were well pleased with his snaky Majesty, and he was very gracious to his subjects. One day, he crushed a little Frog and swallowed him whole. This excited but little alarm. The next day, he swallowed another. The third day he gulped down two large Frogs at a meal. The whole'nation were now alarmed. Meetings were held, and combinations formed to resist the power of the tyrant. It was all in vain. He laughed them to scorn. He went on swallowing Frog ar ter Frog, until he finally destroyed the whole nation. Moral.-Those Banks and States which have petitioned the Government, for a supreme United States Bank, may make the application. Seizure of Southern Property in British Ports.-It will be remembered by some of our readers, that some time since, a cer tain American vessel was driven by stress of weather, into a port of the Bermuda Islands, and that others were wrecked on the -Bahamas. The negroes on hoard, who were Southern property, were detain ed. Mr. Calhoun brought up this sulbject in the Senate, on the 1st inst. He offered the following resolution which was agreed to. "Resolved, That the President of the U. States be requested to communicate to the Senate, whether the Government or G. Britain has made compensation in the cases of the brigs Enterprise, Encomium, and Comet, the first of which was forced by stress of weather into Port Hamilton, Bermuda Island, and the other two wreck ed on the keys of the Bahamas, and the slaves on board,forcibly seized and detain ed by the local authorities; and if no com pensation has been made, the reasons why it lins not been made, with a copy of the correspondence bet ween the two Govern ments which has taken place since the an swer to a former call on the same subject by the Senate." The .Compromise Act.-The Washing ton Correspondent of the Charleston Cou ier, writing under date of the 31st uIt. Iay., ."Col.Binton has taken singular ground on the subject of the Compromise Act. *He considers it as a humbug-as imprac ticable and absurd. lie says that, at the very next session, Congress must begin to remodel -he Tariff, with a view to supply the Treasury." Gale at the North.-A tremendous gale was experienced at the North, on the 26th uIt. Much damage was done in the city of New York. Many houses were injured, andi some vessels near N. York were di. masted, and others blown off the coast. Several thousand barrels of naval stores were swept from the wrharves. The storm was felt at Albany, where there was a great flood, and much damage done to the boats on the riv'er. The gale came from the South East, and passed over Newark,,N. Jersey, and many places in New England. It was very severe at Hartford,Connecticut,injuring many build inge, and the shade and fruit trees. Gen. Gratiot.-It will be remembered that this Officer was recently removed, on account of alleged defalcation. in a com munication made by him to Congress, he says that so far frotn being a defaulter, the Government is indebted to him. It is said to be the opinion of Mr. Horace Binney and Mr Walter Jones, eminent lawyers, that the claims of Gen. G. against the United States,are founded in l'aw, and equity, and should have been allowed. The case is at least doubtful. Stephen Van Renselaer, of New York,I died on the 26th nlt. Three hundred dollarafor a Story.-We have seen advertisements by sotme of our brother editors, offering 8300 for a Story. A Bank editor will write one, for one guar ter of the money. The publication of the Washington Chronicle is suspended. Missouri.-The follow~ing is a good hoax on the foolish debates, which oflen spring up in Lcgislattive bodies. The St.] Louis Gazette says, that the Legislature at the latest date, was discussing the sub ject of early rising. Thtirty eight mnembetrs were present. The rest had not returned from a frolie.t Maryland.-Thbe Hon. W. D. Merrick, was re-elected from Mdaryland to the U.I States Senate, for six years, from the 4th of March next. The Legislature of Indiana, constituted of an overwhelming majority of Whigs in 1 both branches, have passed resolutions con-t demning the agitation of the subject of1 the abolition of slavery in the States andi the District of Columnbia. There wvere I hut one or two dissenting votes in each hotnse.--hronicle Sr Sen. ', 1iscelaneous. From te N. 0. Bee,' Feb. 2. FLORIDA WAa.-From an officer who arived last evening, from the seat of war, we learn that the Indians are scattered through middle Florida, in very small par ties, and that there is no prospect of bring ing the war to a close for some time. Cattle in great abundance are found in all the hammocks, to which they resort for food and the few Indians who have been killed and taken, were plentifully supplied with ammunition of the best quality, Gen. Taylor, had gone to Tampa Bay, having learned that a number of the Sem inoles and Micasukies intended to surren der themselves at that place. It was reported that the express rider from Fort Harley to Micanopy had been killed near the latter place. Vcry little confidence was placed in the rumor of a surrender at Tampa Bay. Gen. Taylor has established a cordon of Posts from Tal lahassee to Suwannee river, between which and the Gulf, most of the Indians are sup posed to be. Twenty-five men of each company are mounted, which renders a speedy concentration of a considerable force practicable upon an emergency. And by gradually drawing the posts towards the Gulf, thus narrowing the field of oper ations, the General expects to force the In dians to a speedy surrender. The Rail-Road Bank Bill.-The Lex. ingtou Observer, of the 26th ult., says that the Rail Road Bank Bill was laid over,on the 25th ult., after a speech of Mr. Merri wether against it. This was done at the instance of its friends. and the vote was not expected to be taken until the 30th ult. The same paper states that the citizens if Frankfort. without distinction of party on the 23d uIt., gave a public dinner "to the distinguished commissioner from S. Carolina, Col. C. G. Memminger;" that a large number of citizens and members of Legislature participated in the festival, and Col. M., in reply to a complimentary toast, made a speech of great eloquence and power. The Bill to establish the Southern Bank of Kentucky, has passed the House by a vote of 61 to 36. DREADFUL EARTHQUAKE, ST. PFRaRE, MART~rIQuE,Jan. 12. You have undoubtedly heard of the dreadful calamity which has befallen our unfortunate country, already so much to be pitied in every respect. The disasters of yesterday are incalculable. There is not a single house in St. Pierre, that must not be re-built or entirely repaired. We have lost but two persons who were crush ed under the ruins, and about 20 were wounded; but Fort Royal is completely laid even with the ground, as we hear of in the history of Herculaneum,Pompeii & Messina. Not one fourth of the city has yet been searched, and they have already found,522 (lead bodies. The Hospital at Fort Royal is likewise destroyed, and all the sick therein perished. According to other letters and reports, of different persons arrived at Point Petre, from Martinique.ou the 13th and 14th inst. it would appear that all the wooden hou ses had 'escaped the disaster. Nothing yet can be said of the state of the flrtifica tions at Fort Royal and of the other estabi lishments of the Government, of which no mention is made in the letters of our correspondents. But from the reports col lected from the adjacent countries, we would infer that the Sugar Factories had ;uffered considerably; already, the known losses are estimated at more than ten mil lion of francs. 'On the 12th, a vessel ar rived at St. Pierre from St. Lucy. hy which we heard that that Island had felt but slightly the shock of the Earthquake. In the Virginia House of Delegates on he 16th Mr. Stephenson presented the rollowing resolution: Resolved, That the Committee on Banks be instructed to bring ina a bill providing ror the incorporation of a state bank, with i Capital of $20,000,000; and the Parent Bank to be located in the city of Richi xiond. with- branches at such places as the tecessities of Commerce, and the wants >f the country may require.

Cotton.-During the early part of the ast week business was very languid; hol lers were unwilling to gush the article for vard, and operators kept back for later ad ices. Subsequently, however, accounts rom Liverpool to the 24th December, which represented an advance ofid on all easeriptinn. have tended in a degree to re establish confidence, although purchasers remitin in 9 feverish state, and act very cautiously.
