The debate of Tuesday, in both Houses. fill h-i-nty nine celmns of the morning papers-a great efort as regards the more wucchanical la bor, but stil! more surprising as regards the skill of the reporters, nd their ability - to meet any demand upon their iutellc't 33d exertions. Apart from local politics. the-most interesing speech in eitherb(ouse was that of Lord Palmerston, on the af fairs'of Servia. He found fault With the I coadvit of Russia, and moved for papers, i winding up wish a ferce assault on the i Goerament.

POLITICAL. From the Charlesto Mkrtury. GR.EAT CALHmoUN MEF.TaNo ix N. YORK. The friends of Mr. Calhoun hail a gracd rally in the Park on Monday evening. Thc resolutions adopted are admareble. and will find a respotise in the hearts of the people through the nhole country. We are compelled to tefer their publica iion till Monday. We have, as usual, tie most conGirtina accounts of the Meet. ing. The J urnal of Commerce says: "in point of numbers and respectability, it may fairly be set clown as one of the most influentialpolitlcal meetings which had taken place for some time in this city About four thousand persons were pre cIio, a large number of whom, in point of alcut and influence, may he considered part of the very elite of the Democratic iearty." The Aurora says the numbers were -variously estimated at from 8 to 15 Jhousand, althogh we have seen smaller neetings there reported at twenty five bousaud." The Plhbian. which seems to be in a perfect rage with the whole affair. bestows a column of unmtigated coarseness of Mr. C:alhoun, his friends and the occasion, hat proves clearly to our mind that the Iournal of Cummaerce rust have underra ed the numbers of the Meeting, and that ie Aurora is nearer the mark. four housand people could never.have.put Mr. Vat Iluren's organ into such a slew of mnxiety, terrnr and rage. That iaper ays the Meeting 'nonsisted, at haigh water nark, if exactly 10y93 persons, and deni -ribes theam ns mainly Whigse, rowdies, ittle boys, niggers, Vana Buren men and ther suach woruthless rabblement.

In politics a general npathy hias prevnsil ed since the July electihs. Those elcic tiuo revealed a greater revolution of ptb lie senrinsent in lflanisiatta, than could have been anticipated from the character of the Joopulaition, and the diversified interests of the State. The policy of the cotton see tion has always been free trade, while that of the sugar districts has fiavored a pro tective trai, in casequence of the asiheld it ad'orded to that interest against West India conpetition. Hut the lam- election-# have returned an entire delegation to Con. gress. pledged to t he suplp.rt o frec trade. The iniquity of the tarilrsysten, and it, gross oppressions, have even disgusted those interested in its support, andl the re sulh of rhe election has been alike credit able to them and honorable td tihe State. Attention seems now to be dircted to the comtug .Presidential canvase. and con. senuently e friends of the rival candi dates will soon begi to stir them-elves with alacrity.
