GOLD CURRENCY.-A report has been made by the Secretary of the Treasury to the Senate, in answer to .resolution, fur. nishing all the data from which the amount of gold, now in the United States, can be computed, and also its comparative a mount with the circulation of the Bank of the United States, while that Bank was in existence. These data show that, since the passage of the gold bill in June, 1834, the itmports and exports of gold coin and bullion have been as follows: Statement exhibiting the value of bullion and specie imnported and exported from the ist of July, 1834, to the 301h of September, 1838.

Emigrants have brought in ma ny millions which wvere never entered at the cutstom-house, and besides this, thte product of our own mines, the old coins of the'United States and old foreign coins hoarded before 1834 as keepsakes, have since come into, circulation; and the same report from the mint gives data Otn which they may be calculated. Thtus: The de posites of illi-on from our mine., at- the mirt of the United Statosand its branches, up to the eud of the year 1838. have becn $2,466,309, and tbis has been coined. Nexr, the amount of gold coiu of the old standard which has been carried to the mint and recoined, is $1,259,300: and, be sides this, above nine tmillions of foreign gold coin and bullion have been coined, of'whicht it may wvell be assumed that a million or more was of the gold in the cottntry before the passage of the gold bill itn'1834. Adding these items to thte im ports since that time and they exceed -thirty mrilions of dollars; and supposing . the amount brought in by emigrnts and which came ever land from Canade to be equal to all that wras exported, & we tmay fairly estimate thirty millions as the pres eat amounts in the countly. Of this a me~ttesum of $12,850,500 htas been -coined into eagles, half eagles, and qutarter eagles, and the sum of about seventeen millions is still in foreign coin. As a means or' compelling this large amottnt to be broutght in to be coined, as well as topro o mote the coitnage itt future, it is proposed that, after a gtven time, the fofeign gold should cease, to he -a legal tender. We presume the progress of the mint and its bra'nehes the present year, will decide this suggestion. We rnow come to the next point in the report, to wit, the circulation of'the late Bjank of. the United States, and that is thus presented: "Annual average amount of notes of thie Bank of the Unitedl States, in circulation, -in each yeai'froin 18.47 to 1837. 1817 $4,182,312 1828 810,897,073 1818 8,672,.671 1829 13,017,709 1819 4,973.495 1830 14.937,546 1820 4,410,332 '1831 18,610,303 1821 5,570,457 1832 20,309,369 182i2 5,40-3,626 1833 18,745,439 1823 -4,463,953 1831 16,945,810 1824 5,654,645 1835 21,945,921 1825 ~S8541,553 To March?2 6,0 1826 9,712,328 4, 1836 ' 166,0 1827 9,671,369 Average- for eight years, from 1817 to .1824-in~clus~ive, $5,416.687.. Averatre for eleven years and 2 months, fom 1925 to Mlarcht, 2836, $14,949,.560. _Averag for the time the Dank was in operation under the charter granted by Congress. namely, nineteen years and eleven ionths, 810,971,134." From these tab!es the comparative re suits are: 1. That the amount of gold now in the United States is near three times the a mount of tho average circulalion of the Bank during the 20 years of its existence 2.. That the amount of gold now in the United States is near one-third more that the circulation of the Bank df the United States ever was in any one year of its mos expanded and bloated distension. The reflections which nrise on the view (of these great results are truly cheering. They prove that a gold currency. to the whole extent of the wants ofthe nation,car be acquired with all ease; that by the end of Mr. Van Buren's second term. suppo sing him to be re-elected, we can have seventy millions of gold, besides upwardi of one hundred millions of silver. So muchfor the humbug! What we want at present is, the cir culation of the gold which now lies lockep up in the banks, and that will take place as soon as the Federal Government quin using banks notes and goes to using gol and silver Then the country, as well as the Government, will see the old circulate which is now locked up. VERY LATE FROM ENGLAND. NEw Yona, Feb 12. The packet shipeambridge.Capt. Burs ley, arrived this morning from Liverpool whence she sailed on the 10th of January We have our files of London papers to the 8th, and Liverpool to the 10th of January both inclusive. Violent Storm-three Packets Lost - Our late storm seems to have been far ex ceeded in severity and extent of disaster by one which swept over the West of En gland on the 6th of Jinuary. No less than 13 coluninsof the Liverpool Mail ar filled with details of its ravages. In tha town the damage was so general that no one street entirely escaped. Great num bers of chimnies were blown down, crush ing houses in their fall-roofs were car ned away-garden walls prostrated, &c -and in some instances entire houses were reduced to heaps of ruin. Severa lives were lost, but in a very extraorrdinar number of cases, persons who were buriet by the fall of bricks and ruins, were sub. sequently extricated alive, and for the mos part little injured. The disasters among the shipping were terrible. No less than three of the New York packeti were lost, the Oxford. St Andrew and Pennsylvanin. The Oxford went on shore in Bootle Bay on the nigh of the 6th, with all her masts standing. The next morning, the passengers. 13 it number, with the eaptain and crew, land ed in safety, with the luggage. The masts fell in the cotrse of the night. Near to the same spot, the steamer Red wing, a tender for the mail, weit ashore So violent was (he hurricane, that althougli the Redwing had three anchors out, atm her full power of steam on, one of the her cables snapped and the other two an. chors dragged, the vessel going bodily ot shore, till at last, the captain Vas oblige t< slip his cables, to avoid running into the Oxford. The wind then drove the vesse on her beam enda, and being unable to ge her head to windward, she went on shor< sideway. The St. Andrew struck on the Burb< Sands. The passehgers were taken of by a steam vessel, the Victoria. High en. comiums are paid,in the Liverpool papers to the cool and steady conduct of Capt Thomapbon. The ship was a total wreck The ship Lockwvoods, with a grew num her of passengers (on board, went upon tha North Batik, her fore and tmain masts fall ing in the shock. She nas hoarded by the samte steam veissel, the Victoria,w hict took oil' thirty three passengers arnd aboul seventeen of the crew. Forty or fifty per. sons were believed to have perished or board the [5ockwood. .The packet ship Pennsylvania went ot the same North Bank, about a quarter o a mile east ward of the Lock woods, where her'hull ~was nearly covered by the sea. The captain, crew anti passengers wert -seen in the rigging ott 'Tuesday, the 8th On that evening the Victoria steamer pul offro their assistance, andi was wvithin sighi of themn next morumng but could rendiet them no aid. The sufferers were seer1 in thaeirigging atnd their cries could be heard. One of the passengers, Mr. Thompson, of New York, had been seen by Captais Nye, of the Inadependence, at Leasowve. He reported that himself and three othet passengers anid 5 seamen left the ship ii1 one of the boats, which wvas swamped, and the other eight were drowned. Mr. Thompson ascritbed his own safety to a life preserver which he hadl on. It was reportedl on the 10th that 26 per. sons had heeni rescued from the Pentnsyl vania-44 from the Lockwoods-and 22 from the St. Atndrew. The accounts from the interior are quite as frightful as those fromn the sea coast. At Manchester the violence of the storni was terrific. In th'e surrottnding countr) the destruction of trees was immense. In one park alone, 150 were prostrated, and 170 more very mutch injutred by the loss of large limbs and branches. At Bliekbnrn not less than eleven factories had their chimiuies levelledl, doing great damage in their fall. From the Charleston Mercury.

From the Augusta Constitutionalist, Feb. 21. AUGUSTA AND HAMBURG MARKET CoTTox.-The recent intelligence from Liverpool to the 10th January, has had very little or no effect in our market, and we have no alterations to notice, further than that the finer descriptions are more sought after, and the lower qualities more negleced than they were this day week. The demand throughout the week has been fair, and the sales to a liberal extent, con sidering the prices paid, and the great scar cit) of money at the present time. We quote 14 a 164 cents. Prime and choice lots centinue very scarce, and there are none of the latter descripliou offering -a strictly choice lot in square hales, we believe would readily bring 161 cents. Our stock of cotton is decreasing fast, and our receipts are very light for this season of the year. 01 the stock on hand, about one third is hold on the planters account; the balance is in the hands of speculators and shippers. GROUEREs-There is nothing doing worth reporting in our grocery market, and the only sales that have come to our knowedge were a large lot of New Orleans Molasses on the wharf, at 38 ets.; and a lot ol'80 bags fair Cuba Coffee at 13 cts., 90 days. ExcHANox-Cotitinues scarce, and a dillerence is still made of half percent. be tween city and cotutry ills. Sight checks are selling out doors for 14 for city, and Ij per cent. prein fir country notes. On Charleston J a I; Savannah 5-8 a 1 per cent. Bank of Rome bills, do not pass in this city, even brokers refuse to Lake them at a discount. COLUMBIA, Feb. 22. Fine Cotton sold readily from 15 to 174 cents. On Thursday 21st, a lot of prime brought 18 cents. But since the reception of Liverpool dates down to the 17th oflJan uary. a decline has taken place. The friends of Mahlon X.
