Abotut twelve o'clock on Sunday, the clouds broke away, and the sun, looked upon us in all its wonted splendor, and set at eveningin a cloudless sky. On Monday the air having become much colder, the sky was again overcast with clouds, and presented every appear ance of an approaching snow storn. It continued thus until Tutesday evening, whcn itcommenced railing, which turned to sleet, and yesterday moruing, the earth exhibited a coat of ice, which still remains up to the time we write. 0.

We hove baeen favored by some unknowna friend with a pamphlet copy of an Ad dress dlelivered be-fore thae Clariosophaic and Euphradian Societies of Southb Carm hita College, by Robert Iletary, D. 1). We regret that it hta< not been in our pow er to give it that carefual and attenative pieruasal, which the subject. and attbor of it so just ly deserve. The subject is, "IThe Cualti vationa of the Fine Arts favorable to the perfection of private ch.aracter, and the develop~ement of public prosperity." Ordination.-Thae Rev. W. T. Brantly, Jr., was ordainted pastor of the Jlapsiin Church in Augusta, Ga., on thte 27th Dcc.. his father. Rev. Dr. B.. of Charleston. as sisting in teservices, whlich are represetn ted to haave been highly solemnat and effe ting. Andrew Stevenson, Esq., our accom plished Mintister at thea Court of St.Janmes, .has requested to be re-called, and will probably leave London about the first of March next. The Carolina Platnter has changed hantds, beine ntow ni-der the superintenad ence of Mr. Edmutnd Rullin, well knnwn to Southern Pltaters, as te abde nnad ell cienat editor of the Farmners' Regisaer, published at Petersburg. Va. The rea sons asstgned by Mr. Johnston, for this change, are, he says, " altogether person al," antd he tru5' that the arrangemient wvill be satisfactory to the Subascri.sers, to thte Planters, and benteficienat to the Agri. cultural mnterests of ite Sonth Mr. Ruf fin htas the established reputation of being the ablest A ericuhturaI editor in the litnion. It is acknowledgedl in Virginia, that tMe imtprovements derived from his instrue tions in reclaiming poor lanads, and intro dloain a better systeam of caulure, have-al ready added millions to tate parasperty of the State, La. hiso (Mr. R.'s) address to the patrons of thte Planter. hte stays: " In contractng for the union of the Carolina Planter with the Farmers'' Registers, unti undertaking to issue the united publi' ation to the sub scribers of the former, under the title of the latter, the undlersignedl aims to main tain the deserved high character of the roli.n Planter, and its adaptation to the Agriculture of the. more Soutern. States., The conductor of the-Farmers' Register is a Southern man, not only by birth and residence, but also in all his in terests, sentiments and principles-and perhaps, also in his prejudices; and the sustaining the institutions, right", and best general interests of the whole South, ho formed an important part of the general objects of his publication, and also of all other public services vwhich lie has attempi ed to perform. In obtaining the subscri bers to the Carolina Planter, it is hoped that the more valued aid of the contribu lors to its columns, will also be secured, and with the continuance of such aid, there will be nothing los! to any party or interest, and much to be gained by all. The Main Boutndarq.-This question, which has for a long time been a subject of controversy, has assumed a ihreatening aspect, and there is rearon to suppose. that unless some satisfactory arrange nients are soon made, that a var may he expected hetween the United States and England. After a space of some forty years, of occasional negotiation, one war, three or four treaties, one or two inefrect ual attempts to run a line, and one arbi tration by a thiird power, the dispute re mains as far fron nos arIjortnent-icvere. nad sermas likely, to be the cause of pres en ditliculties, and not improbably of a war between the two countries. The British Pres-es, generally, abound in articles of the most flagrant abise of our country. In them, we are told that the citizens of the U. S. cannot perpetuate too base, too illegal, too barbaronst, or too atrocious an act, upon tle rights and iude pentience of foreign nations, without be ing approved of by the Federal Govern. ment. They d'eclare it a gient misfortune to lie in anywise connected with so selfish and unprincipled a Governmvent. The people of the United Stares are con demned "en masse," as guilty ora insoeot manners, ignorant pretensions, hollow friendships. and grasping policy. Now we would ask, in all sincerity, if a peole thus vilified and outraged day after day, and year lafter year, can rea sonalihy be expected to cherish good will towards their defarmers, or whether it is possible for sentintents of regard and friend ship, to the generated by such evidences as English writers put forth towards us, in the natne of all their countrymen. In the mattefor this disputed territory, the one sided propensities of our antago nists in the controversy, tre splendidly ex hibited. Not a writer otn the English side has been willing to adutit, or eveu to hint at, the possibility of our people and Gov ~.. -'...,.-a --",4&r, a in,ep ov tion (f right. Would it not he more candid, to ima gic the existence of sonic honesty in our proceedings ? Even supposing us to be wrong, in our view of the case, and our construction of' the treaty, it surely is pos silde that we are only deceived, not wil ful perverters of the truth; and we eani assure all Enmgli-,h writers, subject to thme Gov'ernment (if Hecr Britanic Majesty, whether they inhabit thme Canmadats, oir thle Northern Isle, that nothing will tend so forcibly to make us persist ini otr claim. at every risk, atnd every sacrifice, as th abtuse whlichi is showered tupotn us. for am serting it. From a mere gnuestiott of ni - tional interest. it becomes, by this process, o question of nationmal righlt and honor ntd abhoughm in matters of mer'e interest. we may lie willing to make concessiotns, on points of right and honor, we will welcome every cost. even to the verge of ruin, before we wilt giv'e bac.k uite step, which canniot lie taken without disgratce. We sincer'ely hop e, however, that some accontmrodation will soon be el'cted, whtchm will preser' the itnterests and honor of both cotuntrie, arid restore that harmony and mutual cont fidence. which is essential to their comamon prosperity, and to the well-heinug of the whole human race.

SLANDER, A DANGEitoVs wEAPoN FOR ENVY.-\ case oh SI arder has tectntly been tried at Montgomery Court ltonse, in Texas, which cannot bts be duly aip precciated amnong civilized trations. The mtoral standhard, is thme surest cbaract cristie of a nation's dlestiny. Mr.A.-and tife, brought an actiuo . Vainst Mr. B. and wife, to recover $10,0 lamatges for certain epithets and language, maliciously used by tIhe wife of Defendant, lefamatory of the character of Mr. A.'s wife,'and the charge being satisfacitoriiy proven. a verdict was returned for Plain tiffs, of $7,500, and costs of suit. The Plainstilfs refused to accept any thing but costs of suit. Britain and Tczs.-The New Orleans Picayune says:-" We stated in our ft reign news oti Sunday that one of the cn eitions of the commercial treaty signed he tween Great Britaits and Texas, by Lord Palkerstou and Gen. Hamilton, stipulat ed that Tex-as was to pay England her proporiion of the Mexican debt. We pub lished it as a report. lint ifit turns out Irre it must be unider-stood with some qualifica tions. The treaty secures the mediation of Great Britain lr the pacification and independence of Texas. with the boundary hne running to the Rio dlel Norte. The original boundary of the Province of Tex as was the Noteces, about one hidred and fifty miles East of the Rio del Norie. If Great Britnin is successful, through the of ferel mediatiou, in secnring peace, in,'e penidence and the boundary lite to the Riio tel Norte, then Texas is to he responsible for her proporlion of the Mexicali national 1eht. Texas is not to pay either for me iliation or independence, hut for enlarged bonundarv, which is..nect-ssary.-o b r-we rity. antd peace cannot he had with Mexico without it." Our Rierr.-We are not much ncquaint rd with coquelts. but from the idea we Ihrm of stich characters, we think the Sa. vtann;th River 'omes the nearest to them, in the water line, of any thing we have seen. Last week it rose some feet above low water mark-receded fora while, and then rose again higher thtan hefore; com ing wtthin as faoot or two foverflowing the banks, and intndating the lower part of he city. But, having approached this distance; remaining stationary for sotme hours, aw111 making the citizeis feel pretty Much like they did last spring, eradlually gave way. and hit us good by. On Thurs day last, it again rose some feet. and whei nur paper I% ent to press, it wits in statu quo. -Hamburg Jour. HAMSBURU. Jai. 1G. Cotton.-We notice another week's ope. ration i. the Cotton mArket, and find uthat stles have been to a large exiwnt by the planter<. A fair humeinies w~s done by our merhaits, in seljin tid buying, and at the lose of this notice the-streets were crowd-i ed wib proaltce wagons. The late ac counts from Liverpool have strengthened the feeling of our cotton dealers, and we are still of the opinion, that the prices now -iveni for the article are not too much, send hat lte quotations which we may make next spring, will reach still higher. unless raur Governtnent should be involved in a foreivn war.
