ihe Savaunah Republican of monuday morning says; Our city has been thrown into most painful state ,of agitation and distress,.by the melancholy termination of the life of a young and promislig cle-rgy man of the Episcopal Church of this place -i-The Rev. James Jackson, late of the Diocese of Massachusetts. . He had re turned .btt a- fsw days from the South where he had- been travelling two months for the restoration of his health which had been impaired by a laborious performance of his-clerical duties. He was apparent - lv very much restored by his absence, and his friends hoped that ie would be ena bled to resume his very acceptable-servi ces in St. John's Church. But theig hopes and his were doomed to a wretched dis: appointment,- for after. exhibiting -a few days previous strQng evidences of wildness he suddenly" left' the city on Wednesday moruiog, without giving any notice of his intended departure, and although suspic ion was immediately excited and. search made during that day and night, he was not found -until the-next morning. having -drowned,- himself in the river opposite Bonaventore. His body was-recovered and the Coroner's inquest had no hesita tion, uponthe very strong testimony sub mitted to them, to bring and instant ver dict of 'insanity.". Thus has perished a young clergyman, whose pulpit perfor mances had given high evidence of intel lectual power, and whose blamelessness of life had won him many friends in the city. The anspual commencement of the Medical College of Georgia, was held on Tuesday. 4th ult. at the Masonic Hall. The degree of- Doctor oC Medicine'was conferred -on: thirty three gentlemen, by the H6n.

Two Newo Manufactories have been chartered in Massachusetts and are to be erected in Newburyport. One is to have - a capital of $150,000, and half the stock has been taken in Boston. The design is to manufacture heavy drillings of the des criptions which have been so successfully exporteid to foreign countries. It has been stated that suchis the cheap and superior character of the article compared to the English manufacture, that it has 'been used for clothing the British armay in India. Melancholy.-Mr. WV. J. M. Wimbish, of Pontotoe, Miss. was recently drowned * neae Memphis Tenn., under the following circumstances. He and a friend were at Memphis when the steamhoat Belle of the W~est landed at the wvharf late in the eve ning. Thbey, imagining the vessel intend ing to lie there during the night we nt on board. Shortly afterwards the Belle of the West got 'uder way. They besought the captain to put them ashore, .vbich he refused to do ntil persuaded therto by some of his passengers, when he agreed to put them out at a wood yard ten miles above the city. Thbe yawl was let down and the parties, with two sailors got in. The steamboat was under such. headway at the time that the yawl capsized. The --twvo sailors got to the shore, but Mr. Wim bish Was drowned. He left a wife and -.. chi.d..n. We condense our notice of this affair from a publication in the.Mem phis Enquirer, signed J. A. McBride, the friend who accompanied Wimbish on board the Belle of the West. The Methodist Episcopal Conference, I in session at Baltimore, has come to the I decision , not to alter the sixth restrictive rule of the Discipline. or in other words, not to separate the church into a Northern and Southern division, on account of the existence of slavery. This is an impor taut decision, and we are gratified to learn says the Republican, that it id made after J due deliberation, and in the true spirit of christian coscilliation. The Baptist de nomination is at present, in great danger of division on the question of slavery. Augusta Chroniclc. Pron the Washington Globe. FOREIGN NEWS. . There are many gratifying facts devel oped in the-late news from England. touch ing the relations of that country with ibis. The policy of Great Britain begins to wear very visibly the impress of an American influence. The reduction of the duties on Cotton, and'the discrimination in favoi of the:Sugar raised in the United States over that produced elsewhere' by slave- labor, imports much; and the speeches in.and out of Parliament. urging still further re ducions 'in the duties on the agricultural prilucts of thiscounry, which, even un- r der the existing tariff. flow in England in k vast quantitles, promise, tit an earJy day, V the adoption, as the settled system of Eng- 0 land, of that which the Democracy of the -1 United States has urged as the only true financial and commercial principles, viz: a trade unfettered by any other than a strictly y revenue tariff. The doctrine of protection o for monopoly is alike abhorrent to the v masses of both countries ; and the effect of d this feeling is evidently reaching both Go- d d vernments. r ri THE COTTON TRADE. . Extract of a Livcrpool Circular, dated Feb. 28th. f( The .announcement of the Min'ster on t< lhe opening of the Session that he would niing forward his financial measures at so arly a period as the 14th Feb., caused nuch excitement and speculation as to the :ontemplated changes these are now si nownr, and we refer to the public papers it *or them. On the whole they give much a tatisfaction, although there are complaints v From those whose interests will suffer; ti this, however, is unavoidable, It will be n bserved that the duties on no less than 130 articles are wholly repealed, but with i the exceptionof a few, the impost on them c is of so.trifling a description as to .be prac. 1 tically of small importance& - The reduction of the duty 'du Sugar is he most important. of the changes; it night have been wished that the new du- L ies were less.complex and embraced all V kinds of Sugar wherever produced ; how c ver the boon to the consumet is consider ble, and the consumption will no doubt e largely increased. - British plantation Sugar has advanced 3s. a 4s, but Foreign Sugar remains unaffected on account of the prospect of a large supply from our 11 wu colonies. The next in importance is g the repeal of the duty on Cotton, which ti Wa no less unex idectecTilian welcome-; he niomentary effect -will be to raise the 4 price in the United States, but that is of I ittle importance since the object was not o lower the cost of the article but to place 0, he English manufacturer upon an equal bi ooting with foreign manufacturers. The. tI ~uure and ultimate effect .will of course P >e to lower the cnst of Cotton by the fr imount of the duty. The remaining 9.rticles which are offect-C iby the changes and which are of any r nterest to our friends in the United States, cc tre, Ashes, Bark, Beeswax, l)yewoods, tI llax, Grease, Hemp, Hides, Lard, Lard o1 il, Pitch, Rosin, Skins. Staves, Tar and d Prpentine. Spirits or Oil of Turpentine k vill be admitted on a duty of 2s instead of s per cwt. Whale Oil is to be admitteda ree of duty after the 1st uf January, 1847. Whalebone and Sperm Oil a''ter the 1st p lanuary, 1849. The excise duty on Glass a vhich prevented the improvement and tl xtension of 1htis branch of manufacture b s to be taken off'. P These measures are now progressing ' brough the lower house4 and it is under tood that. as soon as the resolutions are greed to4 the tariff Will 'go into effect ithouit waiting for tbe more tedious pro- .t ess of the bill passing both hotuses. TJhiis d s of much importance. because any delay b n such changes has always proved very njurious to husiness E TilE NEWS-T HE MA RKETS.- , The New-York letters of. Wednesday, ec P. M. published in the Philadelphia U. S. G'azeue and 1%. Y. American, say- t The news by the Steamer Cambria is a he cause of much congratulation among usiness. The Southern trade anticipiate a sudden revival of business upon the Cot ion news. Holders of Sugars are very I firm ou the news, The best informed Su gar people express the opinion that very lttle Sagar can come to the United States, t at-the present rates in Europe unless our ( market further advances, The Sugar and:a Molsses market here continuea very firm.'
