sgia aroUss-Tio St. Augustine News f the 9th inst. contains the followiogextract m a letter received in that city, dated Fort ashita, A. T., 7th January. "The Seminole Chief, Wild Cat, came up ere on a hunting excursion witli-about 30of his party. He expressed himself dissatisfied ith the manner he and his tribe has been trea ted by the Government He said that they were promised good land, but that he had not .yet found that goed land. He looked like a demon when speaking, of his wrongs, and boasted of his attrocities and the blood he had ahed in Florida." Loss -y Fire.-The Savannah Georgian of the 12th inst., states, that on the night of the 6th inst., a fire broke out on the estate of Col James Dunwoody, in McIntosh Co. Georgia, 'which 'destroyed a large three story barn, 50 by -40 feet, which contained the balance of this, and a part oflast year's crop of Rice, provisions for plantation use. &c., the entire eto. k of seed Rice, with one of Darkens' improved thrashers. The conflagration was so great, that every ex ertion to save the Sugar Mill of Mr. James .Smith, which was in the vicinity of the barn, proved unavailing, and that establishment, .consisting of a Mill for grinding Cane, and all the apparatus for making Sugar were destroy ed. The loss bythe burning of the mill and -contents is estimated at $4,000. Beware of Counterfeits.-In our last we pub. lished a paragraph from the Charleston Patriot, relative to counterfeit Ten Dollar notes of the planters' and Mechanics' Bank of South Caro. lina, being in circulation in that city. We find from the Columbia Chronicle or the 13th inst. that they have also made their appearance in that vicinity; the editor of the Chronicle, who examined one of the notes, state, that "It ii well calculated to deceive the unwary, differing only from the genuine bill in color. and a cer tain stiffness in tho signatures. The counter. feit is much paler, and the heads on each side of the vignette are rather more indistinct than those of the genuine. We think it evident that the counterfeit is a lithograph of the genuine." Since the above was tn type, we have re. ceived the Charleston Courier of the 14th inst. which contains the following paragraph, re a tive to the circulation of the above notes: -'From a letter shewn us yesterday, we learn that an individual, calling himself Stone, de sired that a bill of this description should be changed at a-store at Chester Cour t House, on Saturday last, which was acceded to, and change given, but the proprietor of the store, (hiving read the paragraph, and noticing that the bill answered the description given of the counterfeit) called Stone back, and inquired if he had more money of the same description, which he denied. A search of his person was demanded, and refused. when Stone made a vigorous attempt to elude the personal exami nation. The hue and cry was raised-the crowd followed and the culprit caught, and on inspection, it was discovered that air. Stone had a plentiful supply of ammunition in the shape ofseveral rolls of counterfeit money, the de nomination of which is not mentioned in the letter communicating the information. The individual was committed for trial." The N. Y. Journal of Commerce, says: "A lithographic counterfeit of a five on the Ameri can Exchange Batik of that city, so exactly resembles the original that it can with difficul ty be detected." Mr. Calhoux.-The Joumnals of both parties appear to be well pleased writh the appointment of this able statesman to the office of Secretary of State. For ourself, we must acknowledge, we were much astonished at the time we re eived the news, (although rumor had prece ded it,) that President Tyler had been so fortu nate as to make such a aelection; as, in our humble opinion. Mr. Calhoun is the only per son, calculated to make the last part ol this ad ministration oh great and lasting benefit to the sountry. Should he accelet the appointment, which we hope he may, he will set all things strait, and eable the President, by his valuable advice, to settle the Texas and Oregon qtues tions, to the satisfaction or the citizens of the Umnted States, and all others cozncerned. Annexed we give the opinions of the press of all parties,(so far as we have received them,) relative to the appointment: The South-Carolinian says: "The nom ination has taken every one by surprise, yet the press seemns as unanimous itn favor of it, as the Senate ; and we sincerely hope Mr. Calhoun may decide to accept it; for if he does so, desirdus as he is for retire ment, and without any perceivable per sonal motive to desire the office, it can only be with a strong, disinterested, self-sacri ficing hope of being of service to the coun try, in the settlement of the great ques tions at issue. Elevated as is his character and fame, the office can add nothing to either, and the remaining portion of the term is too short to enable him to effect anything in it of the Government reform so desirable to himself & his political friends. The negotiations to be opened with Great Britain, are beset with too many serious difficulties, and involve too much of per sonal responsibility, to reader the manage meet of them desiralple to any one. This, however, will not deter Mr. Calhoun from undertakinj; them, if he believes he can be of service ; and if he does undertake them, the very act itself, evidently free from any sel6sh motive, combined with his great ex perience and wisdom, and thorough under etanding of the questions at issue, will at once give to the country great hope of suc cess. May the Almighty Disposer of Events. in whom he h~as ever trusted, and 'who has ever strengthened and sustained him in doubt or difficulty, guide and direct him now, both as to the appointment itself, and its great duties, if he acceptisit." The Charleston Mercury says: "The Dews of Mr. Calhoun's appointment is re ceived every where with lively approba tion. Political friends and opponents agree that a better could not be made. There is a general and deep conviction that the country at this time calls for pre-emi jnent ability, firmness, experience and in teerity, in the direction of the State De partment. and the universal approva( of Mr. Calhoun's appointment idi such a cr1 s, is a tribute to his wisdom and charac ter, much as has been bestowed on few statesmen. Believing that he can do sub staptialseryice to the country, we hope he will acept the appointment. We believe t, ;,isth ..ne.al ...:s of s. friends. her that he should do so. We have not heard an opinion against-it." . iThe '.Washington Spectator thus an nouncesthe nomination-: " .'Mr. Calhoun Secretaryof State.=Mr Calhoun's name was sentin to-day by the Presidetitof the United=S8tites foithe Sen. ate forconfiriation forb the-office of Seere. .tary of State. Of course' Mr. Calhoun has not been consulted ipot.the matter the distance of his abode'rendoring it im possible for any communication from him to be received ; but doubtless thef resident, relying on the positiodninwhich' the coun try is placed in its foreign relations, infers that the appointment -will be accepted-by him. "Tha there are many and great difficul ties with-foreign nations, no one can doubt. 1f:Mr. Calhoun believes that his agency is necessary toladjust them, and' hopes that they can be adjusted by him, we believe he will accept the office-for such a time, at least,, as shall be necessary to test his abil ity to settle them. But, if on the contrary, that either they are not of any pressing emergency, or that his services are not ne cessary for their right adjuatment, he will not leave his retirement. The position itself at this time of life, with the distin-' guished stations he' has already occupied, can give no honor; and nothing but a stern sense gf public duty will induce him to assume it The Oregon question we can not believe to be capable of any settlement by treaty ; and, therefore, neither honor nor usefulness will probably accompany any efforts for this purpose. The feeling of the West, as developed in Congress, will have the whole of that Territory or none., and of-course there is no room for treaty, which always implies conflicting rights. To sat-' isfy those chiefly interested-the West we do not deem possible, unless Great Britain will surrender all her pretensions ; of course, therefore, any treaty 'concluded concerning Oregon, will, with the West, damn any statesman who makes it. We think our title pretty clear, thatn accord ing to European notions of the right of civilized nations to take possession of more barbarous nations and. appropriate them, men and territory, to their special benefit. Admitting that because a nation is civil ized and christianized, it has a right to send a ship or a dozen men, and claim an empire inhabited by weaker and more bar barous nations, not only against these na tions, but also against all other civilized nations-why, we have a capital title. "We shall be very glad if Mr. Calhoun, or any body else, can adjust this question to our entire satisfaction,. But we are a land-bitten people, and we fear we love excitement, perhaps war, more than-peace. "We had written thus far, when we were informed that Mr. Calhoun's nomi nation, without the usual reference to a committee, was confirmed instzintaneously and unanimously by the Senate on pre sentation. If one man in this Union is ad equate to save the country from any evil, we believe it to be this old, wise, long-tried statesman. The country, we are satisfied, will rejoice, should ho accept the appoint ment." The National Intelligencer, in announ cing it, says: "This is an appointment upon which we can conscientiously congratulate the coun try. However, we may have differed from this distinguished citizen on important questions of domestic policy, we are happy in the belief that, in the station to which he has been called, under circumstances well calculated to flatter an honest pride in him, he will do honor to himself and to his country." The Globe remarks upon the unusual importance of the office at this time, and a dds: "Mr. Calhoun, if he accepts the office, will have it in his power to do much good for the country, and for his own fame. He has not sought the office, directly or indi rectly- No friend of his, we understand, has approached the President on the sub ject. No one of them. we believe, can an swer as to the probability of his acceptirng it. For the most part, they are in favor of his taking the office." The Richmond Enuquirer, announcing the appointment, says: "We cannot 'entertain a moment's doubt that he has been selected with special re gard to the question of Oregon and the an nexation of Texas-and no man is better calculated to conduct these two great. questions, thtan John C. Calhoun. We hope. he will not hesit ate one mpment to devote his eminent ability to the publiq service-and that he will accept the ap pointment, so honorably tendered, so hon orably conferred." The New York Journal of Commerce says of it : "The appointment of John C. Calhoun to the office of Secretary of State, is an event of nto common interest to the nation. His great talents will be found adequate to. any emergency, and his long experience in public affairs nsill enable him to guide the ship of State safe'ly and prosperously." The New York Republic thus announ ces it : "No event has taken place in political life for some years past, has relieved us from a greater weight of anxiety and in cerpitudo than the appointment of Mr. C. We place the fullest confidence in his sin gleness of purpose and firmness of charac ter-he is too high-minded and patriotic to sacrifice in anything the honor and inter ests of his country-he is too philanthropic and hum'sno to allow the mere suggestiotts of vanity or the ties oflparty to plunge the country into the horrors and embarrassment of war. "His great wisdom and experience in political affnirs will not only be found use ful on this, but on many other questions which nearly effect our domestic interests. WVe congratulate the country on the pru dence of the choice it has made, and the country on the evils it is saved from." The New York Herald of the 5th, be fore the nomination was known, says; "We believe Mr. Webster might be able to settle peaceably the Oregon gue~tion, so as to satisfy the east; but whether he could settle it or the Texas question on terms to satisfy the south and west, we are disposed to doubt. In this aspect of te case, it is probable that Mr. Calhoun woa~ dgive more satisfaction to the con try in'tlation to these questions than any other mDet that could be namned. And, looking ahnwck . selection in 'every point of view, we are disposed to think that Pre sidont Tyler would find it very much to :ti advantage of his administration, and i his ulterior views also. The friends o 'Mr. Cithoum in the South aidwest are no merous: These friends.would be attache to.the administration and its nioveinents in case of theselection offtheir Coryphti for tbe'department of State; aDd Mr. Cal haunimight in that position, from his'grea talents-from his moderation-from hit profound intellect-be enabled 'to setit these questions to the satisfaction of tht great mass of the Southern- and Westert States, and certainly not so much in hos tllify to the east. If they could be settlet with peace, that is all the east wants-tha is all that the interests of commerce re quire-and that is all that could be gainer even by the selection of Mr. Webster." The New Yaor American notices thu the appointment of Mr. Calhoun - The New, .Nomination.-.John C. Cal 'noun has received a unanimous confirma tion as Secretary of State. This circun stance, taken in connection with Mr. Cal boon's position as a candidate thrust asid by a more adroit and far less able compet itor for the Presidency--and with the con v.iction that all must feel, that if he accep the post, it must be from a sense of public duty, and not for the gratification of pri vate ambition-will enable him to exer cise a degree of power and indepeudenc in that post, that may redound equally ti his own lasting honor, and to the benefit o his country. Mr. Calhoun offers his security to tih country-placed as we think it is in immi nent danger of war by the rash and ill -red movements on the Oregon ques at he knows the value of Peace is all the folly and wickedness. ii the present state of the world, of provo king a war for a region we do not at ires ent want, and which, in the nature c things, and by the operation of irresistibl causes, must, before we are, in truth, read to occupy it, fall within our orbit. Oregon, American in title, will also b American in possession by the mere cours of events-and Mr. Calhoun is too Iris and two conscientious a man to grasp a that with a violent and bloody hand, whicl will come to us in due time, of its own fret will. We repeat, therefore, thehope that Mr Calhoun may accept." Late from Mexieo.--The Pensacola Ga. zette of the 2d inst. announces the arriva at that part. on the previous day, of the U. S. ship Vincennes, Capt. Buchanan, from Vera Cruz, whence she sailed on the 20th uIt. The V. had on board Lieut. Francis S. Barry, of the U, S.

Its bills are noni worth little or nothing in this market. Most ofthe officers of the institution areab. lent from the city at this time, and it may be that when they return things may wear a more favorable aspect. We fear the worst, however. It is the custom, when things of this sort happen, to visit the whole blame on the einizens of the place. Now, we wish it dis. tinctly underspood that the owners and managers of tis concern were strangers aud adventurers, hardly known to one man in ten among us, and having no concern with this people, except what was tran~ spired.

Pickpocket Arrested.-One of the light angered gentry named Thompson, was ar rested in the very act of "removing the do posites" from the pocket of a gentleman, at the Circus, one evening last week, and rully committed for trial.

One bank, t is said, has cashed drafts of his accept. ance to the tune of $200,000, taking cot ton that they were drawn against as collateral, none of which has come to hand. rho Manhattan Bank yesterday certified $10,000 of his paper, whish at the close if iihe bank hours proved worthless, and they are raising a question whether they aire liable for the same. The general opin. on is that they are. I have heard thai Magee is among the missing. Great Bank Robbiery.-Tbhe Madisor branch of the State of Indiana was forcibly entered on the night of the 26th nIt..aund robbed of the large sum of$27,37&.

A row of three story brick buildings front Jug on Lawrence street, was much injurid. There were in one part of the turpentine manufactory, '3000 barrels of resin, 400. barrels of tar, and a-large number of empty casks. These were all on fire at the same time, and sent forth -volumes of flame, which swept every thing in their progress. The bulk of the real estate.belonged to the U. S. Bank, and is insured.

Montreal Herald. f The Picayune gives the following- de scription of'what is regarded as rather "a lively place," well to do in the Southwest. "They have a little town "Out West" which appears to have been overlooked by Dickens and other English writers of his class, and which is "all sorts" of a stirring placo. In one day they recently had two street fights, hung a man, rode three out of town on a rail, got up a quarter race, a turkey shooting, a gander pulling, a match dog fight, had preaching by a Methodist circuit rider who afterwards inn a foot race fur drinks "all round ;" and as if this was not enough, the judge of the court after losing a year's salary at single handed poker, and whipping a person who said he didn't understand the game, went out and helped Lynch a man for hog stealing." Perpetual Fire.-A London paper says, that a fire now burning on the hearth-of Mr. Stradling, of Somerset, was kindled in 1762, by one of his ancestors, and has nev er been suffered to go out.
