It rinw appears that Father Ritchie, eschews it, and will on this subject stand up for the South. Stick to this old gentleman, and you will do much to regain the good opinion of the South, which you have nearly forfeited. Hear him: " We have correctly defined onr position. We have stated that the South could and would not a.:quiesce in the 'Vilmot proviso; and that nothing would satisfy them but a conciliatory settlement on the Miissonri com:nimise princa ple, according to the spirit in w hi ;h the consti tution was formed, and in wl.ch it has been administered." General Taylorand the Presidency.-Various newspapers and public meetings have recom mended General Taylor for the successor of Mr. Polk. It appears that the Whigs claim him, as a member of their party, and many of them now, are disposed to support his claims. We do not know even what are his political opinions, as we have not seen any publication of them, by himself or any of his friends, speak ing, by authority. On the suhject of the Presi dency, General Taylor, in a letter bearing date at Agua Neuva, March 4th, 1847, and addres ied to General Butler, says: " I may observe that I have been also named as a candidate for that high office by .a few newspaper editors and others, which has been done without my knowledge, wishes or con sent. 4" This I have assured all who have written me on the subject. assuring. them I had no as pirations for that or any other civil office ; that my whole energies. mental and physical, were and had been absorbed in such a way as I thought best calculated to bring this war to a close, believing it was for the interest of both countries the sooner it was done the better-at any rate So far as ours was concerned and that President making should be lost sight of until this was accomplished." Large Claim upon the Unted States,-A Mr. Sibell, of Florida, has brought forward a claim to the amount of one million and seven hun. dred thousand dollars. against the public Trea sury. Mr. Sibell owned a large property in Florida, during the Seminole war, Saw Mills, for Live Oak, and various other improvements upon a large tract of land, ihe whole of which was broken np by the United States army. The Counsel he has engaged are Mr. Webster, Mr. Dallas, Mr. Berrien, and others. The Cotton Crop in Alabama.-A gentleman, arrived from Mobile, informs us (says N. O. Mercury,) that such have been the ravages of the worms in Alabamathat all the young cotton has been coinpletely destroyed by them on all the plantations between Mobile and Demopo lis; and that the work of destruction is so complete, that the planters have counteriand ed thair orders for rope ahd bagging.

CALHOUN, Tihe following letters from Mr. Calhoun are published in the Halifax (N. C.) Rie publicaa. They were addressed to the editor, and were elicited by a letter and editorial which appeared some time since in that paper, and which came under the notice of Mr. Calhount F)R-T HILL, April 9I. Dear Sir-The letter I wrote to you. and which you desire to publish, wtas, written with the feelings called forth by the letter from you, to which it is the au swver, I have not kept a copy, and cau not say whether it is of a character, either from manner or matter, which would make it right to publish its As a general rule. I ever avoid appearieng in the public press when I can well avoid it; but as I have never written a line containing a sentiment in my lire, that I would be un willing the world should see, I leave you to act as you please in relation to it. With respect, I am &c., J. C. CAL HOUN. C. N. WEaa, Esq FORT HILL, March 20. Dear Sir-1-received with your letter the paper you were so- kind as to send me. I :ee that notwithstanding your kind feelings towards me, you have greatly mijtidgedt me in thinking I ever joined -the fallen fortunle" of Mr. Van Huren. The truth-is, that I have not been able, with my principles anid policy, to act with either party, except occasionally, for the the last 17 years. I differ frotm both on several impor-tant questions, and among otliers the proscriptive policy of turning opponents out of office indiscrimninately and bestowing their places, as rewards for partisan services, on the least meritorious of the respective parties, and agree with each in some particulars. Mine has been an independent course throughout; and hence I have heen compelled to 'separate from the party in power and act with those out of power, during the long pet iod inen tioned, I have never separatsd from the weakc'to join the strong, but from the strong tojoitn the weak. I seek no..office, and desire none, and only cotntinue to repre sent the State in the Senate because it is unwilling I should decline, I would not a'ccept the Presidency -but from thte people, and then from a sense of duty only. N thing cain induce me to sacrifice my tnde pendence, not even to retain favor of miy native State.l I , -in .1837, supported Mr. Vatn Boren, it was- because he was forced to sustain the measures I had sup ported against hiu and Genbral Jackson, .and.because-the whigs- tookgroundirainas them;eand nb because'lijoined hirri or is fallen. fortunes. I had .no;motive. toado .either,: while Thad strong ones to support the measures which l-approved. It would have been highly censurable in me totuirn: -against them because he had been forced .to support ;hem. With great respect. I am &c. J. C. CALHOUN .C. N. WEBB, Esq. From the Baltimore A merican 22d inst 15 DAYS LATER-FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OF TIIS STEAMSHIP CAMBRIA. The steamer Cambria arrived'at Bos ton, at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, bringing dates from Liverpool to the 4th inst., bing fifteen days later than previous advices. - The grain markets are -receding, in all directions. Indian corn has. declined,24 shillings. The rapid rise, .heretofore,;ia .this species of food, surprised many per sons and exceeded actua' necessity--Flour like Jndan corn has sustained a considera ble fail. The existing depression can hardly fall to be incteased by the spring weather we are now.-enjoying, which foreshadows a p-olific harvest. Liverpool Cotton Market, Week.enlding March 26.-There was quite a turn)round in our Cotton market this week. Instead of tre-gloon and depression wbich has existed since the commencement:.of the present year, we have had a stirringand active . business on each succeeding , day, both in the trade and speculation.. Ex porters also have been .purchasing _for some of the better qualities of Orleans. Jn such a market,. and after so long a depres. sion, it became a certainty thatan increase of demand would also give a turn in prices. Accordingly, Amnerican Cescriptions or all qualities, are raised # penny per. lb, and the great bulk of the orcinairy kinds Jd.,i Thb weather, at the . !eparture..of the steamer was very pleasant, and tho, ap pearances of an abuuanr spring crop al together promising. No political news of special interest. The Parliamentaryproceedings were principally rejative to _ireland--the poor law was still debated. In. the. House'.of Commons, the governmne-t measure .net with much opposition-the- amendrments were various, but most. were defeated.. Lord Mmorpeth has introduced. his-im portation, bill, which proposes thee slabl lishmeut of a board at Lowdon to protect -the health of towns, and.'also regulating the improvements of all light water bonds' The suffertmg by famine ,in .lrelaud. Scotland. and. on. the Continent, is lunaba; ted. A great -fast was held in Englandon account of the famine, which was rigidly kept. .. , s1 The distress was great. in France. .in some depart ments carts and boats cont n ing grain required an escirt of military.-to protect them from pillage. ., .

A letter from Rome, dated Feb. -28, says: The birth-day of General Wash ington occurring last Monday. a grand hanquet was held in the Hall of Bertini, at which sixty citizens of the United States assembled, tinder the presidency of their Neapolhtan Charge d'Affaires, Mr. Polk, junior. Tihirteen' toasts were gone through with republican vigor and perse verance, not omitting "a successftul termi natiorr of tire Mexican War, with three cheers Cotr General Taylor." Judge Wel born of Georgia,~was eloquent in showing how a. visit to Europe only made his own countryment, all the prnopder of their do mestic institutions. "Hail, Columbia," and the ''Star-spangled Banner," were performed on the pianforte by Mr. Kars. ten; and the American gymnast, Sig. Rig ley, (who has made a harvest in Rome) volunteered an appropriate dance.
