Te next Speaker in Congre-Our at tention has been particularly cnfled to the following, which we copy from "The Old Dominion." We take pleasure in laying it before our readers: The next Speaker.-The Federal Whigs have, in the kindest manner. furnished a variety ofuames for the Demncratic Party to select from as caudidales for the Spea ker's Chair, at the co.ming session of Con gress. . We ought to he~grealyobli.ed to them, doubtless-particularly as several of them were never thought of by us. With all due deference to Whig dictation in this matter, we hope to see the frank, fearless, honest Representative from the gallant State of South Carolina-we mean the Hon. Francis W. Pickenc. selected to fill that high station. The most weighty reasons can be urged in. favor of this pro position-they must be tot apparent to all our friends to require them to be specified. If brought forward. his election would he certain. On th score of qualilication-4, he is qeronod to none, anti we earnestly atnd sincerely hope that he may he the Candi date of the Democratic Party. The Speakership. -.The Charleston Mercury, of the 8th instant, say : - The gratifying result of the Maryland elections ensures the election of a R-pub lican Speaker of Congrc.s. The Hut Dixon H. Lewis, of Alabama, Mir. Pickens, of this State, and Mr. Eannks, of Virginia, have been severally suggested for that important station." The United States Bank.-It is said in some papers, that the United State Bank has $7,000,000 in hand, and thatitscircu lation is about $12,000,000. We hope that the Bank rcally has this large amount of specie in its vaults, but we strongly doubt it. What else than a scarcity of gold and silver, can account fr the great pressure under which this institution has labored, for some time past? The Grenville Mountaineer, of the 11th instant, says:-" We understand,verhally, that at tho meeting of the Directors of the Charleston and Cincinnati Railroad, at Flat Rock, on Monday last, Mitchell King, Esq., was elected President of the Board, and Charles Edtnondson, Esq., was elected President of the Bank, which offices, it is said, they will hold temupora rily until the meeting of the Directors at Columbia, in December next. The Eglintoun Tournament.-The Lon don Satirist gives a humorous descrip tion of the passage of arm,;, which lately "came off" at Eglintoun Castle. The first day of the tilting was wet, and the Knights and spectators were drenched in rain. The second day was fair, and the sun shone out brightly. The pageant then presented a beautiful and imjposing appearance. The Earl of E -lintoun was Lord of the Tournament; The Marquis of Londonderry. King of the Tournament ; and numerous Lords and Gentlemen acted as Knights and Esquires. Lady Seymour was the Queen of Beauty, an attended by a guard of Lady Archers, and the Irvine Archers. It was her province to award the honors to the gentle Knights who distinguished themselves by fea~s of bold emaprise. In one rencontre, the Earl of Eglintouni was declared victor over his opponent, the M1arquis of Waterfomrd, Knight of the Dragon. The tiltitng was performed with various success, hy the other Knights. It will suffice to say, that the mailed and plumed warriors itmmor talized themselves by prodigies of valour. and that the ladies smiled divinely. Thi. was considered by their lovers, as an atm ple reward. The pageant closed with a splendid ball in the Castle. Int this unro mantic age, the whole affair must al pear to many persons a capital burlesque. Others may ask, what profi arose frnm all this ostentatiouts parade ? .Alas ! the present age isessettially tutili tarian. The glorious sports and pageants of the times of old,has e passed away. and we hasve nothing left but the dull, cold re alities of every day life ! Ours is thme money-making age, and not of ktnightly deeds. Well may we now exclaim, in the pathetic latngumuge of England's great statesman " The -days of chivalry are over!" Maryland.-The following is the result of the Comngressional Election in this State: Democrat.-Prncis Thomas, J. T. Hi. Worthington. Philip F. Thomas, Solomotn Hillen, jr.. James Carroll. Whigs.-W. C. Johnson, Daniel Jeni for, John Dennis. The Democrats have returned, five, and the Whigs three Delegates. In thme last Congress. the position of parties was re versed.' *In the Legislature, the Democrats have also obtained a majority. They have about 48 members, and the WVhigs have about 30. The Boston Whigs have nominated the Hon. Abbott Lawrence, to fill the Con gressional vacancy occasioned by the re signation of Mr. Fletcher. The Hion. J1. C. Alvord, mnember of Con gress elect from Massachusetts, died lately at his residence in Greenfield. " An editor in Sotuth Carolina has de cided. that ime fever and ague is a science, and not a disease," Thus speak, somte writer to u's unk nown. Who is tho editor of our State, who has Suspension of Specie Payments.-The Philadephia Banks, including the United States Bank of Pennsylvania. suspended specie paynentson the 9th inistant; and the Baltimore Banks on the 10th. The imme(liate rause cof the Philadelphia -:us pension, it is said, was a havy draft of specie for New York, followed by a run on the Philadelphia Bank,. The more re mote, bu4 chief cause, is alleged to be the exclusidl of opium from the China trade, a trade of ?50,000,000 sterling, for which specie will henceforth he tainly required. Immediately after the reception of the news. the Banks in the Diztrict of Colum bia. Ric-hmond and Norfolk. Va., also suspended Rpecie payments. The Banks in New York have not sue peaded. The Charleston Courier, of the 15t instant, says:- - Suspension in Charleston.-We regret to perceive front their address in our col umns, that most ofour Banks have been constrained to follow the example of the Philadelphia and Baltimuore Banks and suspend specie payments. It is credita ble, however, to our banking institutions. that they have never taken the lead in -such a measure, but have done all they could to uphold the credit or the country, yielding only when compelled to do so. on the prin ci ple of self-defence, by the course of like institutions in other places. The Bank of the State of South Carolina, and the Bank of Charleston have not yet united in the measure of suspension, and we trust our community will with one accord sus tain them in their present attitude. The steam packet Liverpool arrived in New York, on the 10th instant. Site brought importatnt intelligence. We gise the following items: The harvest in England was very gloomy. The N. Y. Courier, says : 4 Tht- harvest of G. B. has unquestiona bly been a failure, and the crop is estima ted to he a I least 5,000.000 quarters short." -The bullion in th.- Bank of England i,s estitiated atX3,500,00, and a supen sion of specie payments by that institution was conafialently predicted." Bills to a large amount, drawn by the United States Bank, had been protested in France; but an arrangement had been made for their payment. This is said to be the result of the gambling system of speculation, entered into by the Bank. The civil war in Spain is terminated. A r'volttion has taken place in the Canton of Zurich, Switzerland, resulting in the overthrow and expulsion of the Executive and Grand Councils. The difficultiest between Turkey and Egypt, are not settled. Serious difficulties are appreheuded in Turkey. Mobil.-On the 28th ult., a fire broke out in Mobile, and destroyed about twenty buildings. On the 24l and 3d of this month, fires again broke out, and property to a large amount was destroyed. These fire are believed to have been the work of incendiaries. The Mobile Mercantile Advertiser, ex tra, say3, that another fire broke out ina that e-iay otn the 7th intstant, at night, and burned dlown eleven squares. About 500 huild inags were destroyed, and 200 famnilies were turned into the streets. Fire in New Yrk.-On the 6th instant, a fire broke ottt in New York, and de stoyed more than thirty buladinge. This fare is said to be the most disastrous with wvhich the city has been visited since 1835. Thec loss of property isestiataed to be up wards of S1.000,000. Georgia Election.-The retuarns for the -leetion, of Govertnor, fromt thirteen coutn ies, eive for McDonald, (Van But-en.) 3,920-votes; arnd for Dotugherty. (Stedte tghts,) 5,047.

This is the most important step yet taken in the South for the estalb lishinent of a direct trade with Ensrope-it will constitute a new era in our commner cial relations--m-nd is, we trust, but the neginting of a system, whicb. when more widely extended, will place Charles.on a toutin'g of more advantageous compeition with the emporiums of the North. All that it needs to ensure success is that it shot ld receive a liberal support and enrourage -nent firom our direct importers, & this, we trust, will be freely extended in a truly mer cantile and patriotic spirit. The ships to compose this line are the Chicora, and the Thomas Bennett, both built in this port, the Liverpool, and the Medora. May they have rich freights, and be'wafted by auspi cious breezes across the broad Atlantic! The merchants, W'ho have the honor of originating this patriotic and public spirited enterprize, are Messrs. Johnathan Lucas. James Robertson & Co., and Higham, Fife & Cu.--'harleston Courier. Cotton.-There is one view of the re sults of the systetm of advances on cotton, which we are surprised should have es caped the sagacitv of Mr. McDoffie. Ot the supposition that the depression of the fisreigtn market w6uld justify holding over a portion of the cotton crop for even a short period-we will imagine for30 days ..what is to prevent such a rise in the rate of for eign exchange, as to produce a general movement of specie from the United btates to Europe? . We must, to use a homely phrase, pay our foreign importa tions in meal or malt. If we retard the shipment of our principal staple for only a very short period, and there is little or no exportation of value in this form, furnish ing an adequate supply of bills, there must be expairtation of value in another shape to make up the d'liciency. If we postpone the export of cotton, the proper basis of ex change, for a limited peri , we must ex port specie as the succeianeum, should the deficiency in the supply of hills make the shipment of specie, an operation orthe most profit or the least loss. The only mode of preventing such an advance, as here indicated, in the rates of foreign ex change, is to allow the southern crop to he shipped under the operation of individual interest, as rapidly as it reaches the sea ports, anti to be sold in the foreign market as quickly as the reciprocal interest of buyer and seller would dictate. There is in factuo othermeansorpreventingthatdisor der in the foreign exchanges, that would be sure to be accompanied by derangement of all the commercial relationsof the country. -Charleston Patriot. A New Subscriber.--"Mr. Review. your carrier did not leave me my paper thiq morning. I'll take one if you please." The fellow looked rather suspicious as he entered our sanctum and spoke these words. ''Our carrier's very prompt; where do you live, sir?" "On Beacon street, No, -." "Beacon street; Beacon street; yo must he mistaken, sir ; our carrier has no route there." "Oh,but he has thottgh," said the fellow. "Oh, but he hasn't though unless he's made it to-day, for there's the map of every subhscriber's name and nutmber, and your's is not here, sir." "Alt! oh!

" The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away ; blessed be the name of the Lord.'-Vont. At the residence of Charles Lajnar, Esq.. near Beach Island, on the night of the 6th instant, Mr. GEORGE W. &JAYSON; a poor man, but rich in all the sterling virtues that emhellish and adorn the cha racter of man.- Communicated. The Rev. JosEPH PHILLIPS, of the Bap tist Denomination, departed this life in the 40th year of his age, (in the 5th of Oe tober. 1839, at his residence in the upper part or Edgefield District, S. C. It was the lot of this servant of Go :,to be born in the humble walks of life,and to be deprived of the faculty of sight ; hut, lie was endowed with an inquisitive and iniependeut soul. When a boy, his indus irious spirit led him to seek employment, and he hired himself out as a day laborer. His fidelity and skill gained him business, and he became master of a profitable trade, which required. in other men, the exercise of accnriib vision. God's bless ing crowucd his labors with success, aind he entered into the marriage relation with one, who industriously added her labor to those of her husband. The smiles of their common Father were upon them, and they increased in tho means of com fortable living. In the earlier part of his life. Mr. Phillips was visited by the iufin ences of the Holy Spirit, and hecatning a disciple of the Lord JEsOs CHRIST, he united himself to the Church. His gifts in this new relation developed themsel es. so favurably, that his brethren c:dled him to their exercise, and in due time lie was licensed to preach the Gospel. His inquisitive and industrious mind delighted in the acquisition of knowledge generally, but more especially in the attainment of religious truth. Such was his thirst for biblical Icarning, dhat he would ask imau, woman, or child. -.. ho came in his wav,to read ror him. the Bible, or any work that would enlarge his knowledge of divine truth. By such a course, and by conver sation with his more enlightened brethren, he amassed a very respectable amount of itseful knowledge, especially of that know ledge, that was important to him in his sa cred calling. As his circumstances improved, he fur tiished himself with the means of travel ling, and accompanied by his faithful wife. journeyed extensively in the States of Vir fitia, North, and South Carolina, anti Georgia. rhese tours were always per formed, as an itinerant preacher; and in them he frequently preached according toa his course ofnppointments, to large andi enees that attended on his ministry, and his labors were not without evi dences of the Lord's blessing. Having no children, he adopted a yoUnr girl, to whom he gave the opportunities of a good edUcation. Mr. Phillips was benevolent. He gave to the religiotis ins'itutions of the a contribitionsto theirsuppori : and charged his wife, upon his dving hed, never to withhold what was due to the cause of God. When the requirement, " Give an ne enini of thv stewardship," reached him. he was ceady to comply with it. He calmly fell a sleep inietsus-conmmitting his soul to the hands of Him who gave it. in the bleseed hope of a joyftl resurrection. It wams his desire, that, in the notice if his decath, it should be staited, for the in fuormatint of his Georgia brethbren, atmone whom the first weeks of his laist il'niess wvere spent, that God had mercifully giveti him, after he left them, a greater dlegree ol patience under h's afiliction, thain he~ bad mnanifested whilst he was with them ;antd that God had enahled him to heutr his sick ness, asit brought him nearer to the grave. with pions resignatioti. He has left a wife, and numerous rela lions and friends to mourn his lnss. The writer of this had, fromt is first ac quaintanc'e with the dear deceased, re~ gardled him as an extraordtiary man. int stead of being a burden to his friends, tie in dusrriously labore'd, and co-nfortably sup. ported a'familv-gave to the cause of God, much of his time anti money-and left a plenttifuil stupport for his widow. Though blind from his birth, he neverthe. les-s acquired much impiortant informiatinm, anid was useful in his Master's cauase.
