from the Charleston Courier on the act o

to bank suspensions, to which we invite

into one error; he s:i;>po?t?J the pe.iu!t\
for future suspensions, provided '?v the ac
to be five per-cent per imn'h; whvi^as i
is only at itic rate of f*vc per cent per an
num.' The error was corrected in a sub
sequent number of the paper. It docs no
at all effect the general argument, or tlr
principle involved in the case.
The Bank of the State, considering
the act an amendment to their charter, ac
cepted its provisions. From all we can
learn,we think that most,if not all thcoihe
banks in the state will resist the act, am
let the courts decide, the question whethe
or notjhey forfeited their charters by form
cr suspensions. The question is one fo:
the discussion of lawyers. To them wi

which the public are more interested thai

i As soon as the journal had been read,
s ! Mr. Holmes of South Carolina rose, !
I I and observed that as he had not the lion- (
. 1 or of hearing the speech of the gentleman j
, from North Carolina [Mr. Stanly] on !
. last evening, he desired to ask that gun- j
tleman a question. Mr. Stanly had j
attacked in a very unceremonious way i
. the report and resolutions of the Commit- !
i I tec on Federal Relations in the L?gisla-1
1
f! turc of South Carolina, and which were !
, recently presented to the Iiouse.
, Mr. S.anly objected to it, unless an
opportunity should be afforded to all other :
gentleman who might wish to explain. j
Mr. Il.olmes was understood to appeal j
; to the courtesy of the gentleman from
r North Carolina to withdraw his objection. !
, lie Mr. II. did not intend to enter into j

any argument on toe sabjoc', but merely
to ask a simple courteous question.
1 | Mr. Stanly persisted in his objection, j
1 I and desired the gentleman to wait until
> the House should go into Committee of j
5 j the Whole, when any remark lie might
r i wish to make would be in order.
} Some discussion of a conversational j
character hero arose, during which Mr.)
Campbell of South Carolina rose, and ;
1 , hoped his colleague [ Mr. Holmes] would j
not notice anv remarks the gentleman]
' ] from North Carolina [Mr. Scnly] had j
| made against th. :r S ate. For, however
p-.iisant the member from North Carolina
i might deem himself, he Mr. C. would ns'

; sure h:m that h:s arm was too short to j

; tli I his coll.-a u Mr. Holmes would never .

up his bill for restraining otlicc holders

iivored a very earnest speech in its sup
? j port. Mr. C. has at least the merit of

for a general system, which it was the

through. i

The Committee struck out the provision,
but substituted another fixing the rate
of fees according to the rate allowed in

by a vote of GO to Go, [Mr. 13ell, as Chair- i

Mr. Cuthbert. of Georgia, spoke with i
great vehemence, not to sav rancor, on j
Mr. Webster's political course and principle?, >
addressing interrogatories, to him and charg- j
ing him with having uttered an opinion, iu a
pubhc meeting, some time ago, in Boston, to
the effect that the Federal Government, under
the constitution, had the right to prohibit the
inter Stale slave trade. To that opinion lie
ascribed the growing strength of abolitionism
which threatened to break down all the constitutional
barriers, and prostrate all the rights
and liberties of the Suu'h.
Mr. day, after questioning the propriety of
such an attack, after Mr. Webster had left the .
Senate, ivailed hiinsolt'of the occasion to pass
a beautiful and impressive eulogium on the distinguished
Senator from Massachusetts. Mr, s
Rives followed, bearing his testimony to the
soundness ol Mr. Webster's doctrines, as re. j
ccntly, frequently, and impressively declared,
in Alexandria, Richmond, &c.. on all the subject
affecting southern rights and interests.
Mr. Cuthbert became much excited, and !
said the proofs of his charge should come be- |
fore the public. By heaven, they shall, he ex- |
claimed.
Noquestion was taken on Mr. Crittenden's I

A melancholy accident occnrcd in this
on Monday last, which came near proving
fata! to one of our most valuable citizens.
As the circumstances of the case may appear
to some incredible, it may not he improper
to say that we have the following
particulars from a source that may be relied
upton :
Mr. Oliver Whipple was in the" woods
about three-fourths of a mile from his
house chopping. He had commenced
chopping down a tree, about seven inches
through, which was bent over, by another
tree which had lodged in its lop ; and had
chopped it about half ofl? when the tree
broke, aud a splinter flew from it, and hit
' ' -*??J..
ting Mr. Whipple on the leg below the
knee, severed it entirety from his body.
Mr. Whipple fell to the ground, but was
not aware of the loss of his leg until he
had arisen and attempted to walk. lie
then took up his leg and his axe and started
for home. He went about 4 rods, a:id
finding it somewhat difficult to travel, he
cut a pole, and leaving his axe and dismembered
limb behind, travelled about
eighty rods, when he espied a man drawing
saw logs. lie called to the man, who
went to him with his team and carried
him home.
He went from the sled into his house
without assistance. His hands were
found to be considerably frozen.
So little did the wounded leg bleed that
his course could not have been traced by
the blood on the snow.
The knee was amputated above the
knee joint, on the same evening, by the
medical gentlemen of this village. Mr,
W. was, on Tuesday, in a comfortable
condition, and from present appearances,
will soon be able to attend to ins business.

STEELE ORE. IMPORTANT DISCOXERY.
In the town of Duane, Franklin county
Now York, is a vein of magnetic oxide,
distinguished from the other minerals of
that region by its capacity ofyiclding, directly
from the process of smelting, a substance
possessing all the physical and
chemical properties of manufactured
steel. From this analysis, it appears that
the steel properties of the substance resulting
from the smelting of this mineral are
inherent, and not the result ofanv new or
peculiar processes of assay. However
little the world may he prepared to give
credence to the existence of such a mineral
in the slate ofan oxide, the fact is no v
too well established to admit of skepticism,
and no one who will examine the edge
tools and cutlery of all kinds that have,
during the past season, been cast from
this mineral and sent out into most of the
cities for samples, can do so great violence
to his own senses as to doubt any longer
the existence of ja "natural steel,
from which, by the simple mode of moulding
aud casting, razor blades, penknives,
shears, plane irons, gouges, axes of all
sizes and descriptions, and every variety
of tools of the machinist and carpenter's
shop, are at once produced, having all the
properties and best qualities of the purest
steel.
AVe have actually seen some samples of
articles cast out of this newly discovered
ore which have I>een brought to this city,
and are intended, we believe, to he presented
to the National Institution.?Nat.
