Letter*, poetwiQ be immediately answered. i We call attention to the appeal of the Acadcmi. aal Hoeirtjr to be found in our advertising columns. We Itfp* that, hbrd as the times are, our town will objected to the reproach of selling the eenusodknia bouses built for Academies by tho contributions of the citizens. Money is scarce at (bit time, but the creditors of tha Society would probably extend still further the liberal indulgence Which they have already granted, provided they saw a prospect of receiving the money duo them within some reasonable time, without forcing the bill* of of tho building*. Subscriptions payable in small instalments might, or at least ought to bo taken up that would meet tho preacnt engage, merits. The buildings and lots arc worth at least twice the smount of the debts; and it is the inter. est of the community, and especially of parents who hare ?hildrcn to educate, to save them from being sacrificed. Rccxt.ras.NSts or Party Spirit.?In both branches of tho Legislature of Massachusetts po. Htieal parlies are nearly balanced. According to tbe constitution of the State a majority of all the vote* caul is necessary to constitute an election.? In Whatdy county tlic vote stood, for one candidate 118, for another 117, for a third 1 and for a fourth 1. Or course no one was elected, and the selectmen (or managers) to decided, and refused to give a certificate to any of the candidates. But tho man who had the highest number of votes rent forward and took his seat without credentials. The intrusion wjs soon discovered and his seat vacated ; but what is most remarkable in the case is that the whole parly to which he belonged voted in favor of his retaining his scat, although they profess to be peculiarly and preeminently the people's friends and the friends of such constitutions and governments as the people may adopt. We learn front the Chart, ston Mercury that his Excellency Gov. Hammond has appointed Mr. Rufri.i, late Editor of tho Fanners' Register, to mak? an Agricultural Survey of the Slate, which was authorized by the Legislature at Its recent session. We congratulate tho Agriculturists of the State on this sctectiou. The practical t dents and discriminating good sense of Mr. Ruflin, his long experience as a planter, end the devotion to the subject evinced by him aa editor of tho Ktgitltr, eminently qualify him for the duties of the office. He Was to be in Charleston on tho 28th instant, 10 corner wiui lac menus o; uic survey in ngaro 10 the mode of conducting it. A shock of nn earthquake which was fdt in the upper part of this State, and in parts of Georgia, on the night of the 4th instant, was also felt in Ohio, Tennessee snd Missouri. In Memphis, Tenn. snit St. Loan,- Mo, much ulurin was caused. , (n the latter town a congregation asscinbUd is one of the churches was thrown into great commotion. Tlic chimney of a house not far from the church was thrown down by the curthquakc. Commodore Joner has been recalled from the command of tlic squadron in the northern Pacific, and Capt. Parker ordered to take his place. The illegal capture of Monterey in California, is doubtless the reason of Coin. Jones's recal. In Massachusetts when no candidate for tlic state aeuato receives a majority of nil the votes given the election of a senator for such district is to bo made by joint ballot of both branches of the state legislature. At the election of last fall scve. ral-senatorial districts failed to make elections, but of those which did make elections the Democratic majority was so great that, on joint ballot, they gave the preponderance to that party, who of course supplied the vacancies in the senate; although the Whiga had a majority of three iu the popular branch of the legislature. Neither of the candidates for Governor received majority of the popular votes. The election therefore, devolved upon the legislature, who elect, cd Marcus Morton over Gov. Davis by a small majority of . Morton had a plurality of 1,1157 over Davis at tho popular election. The Legislature of Kentucky have re-elected Mr. Crittrndkn U. S. Senator from that State. The vote stood for Crittenden 88, for Richard M Johnson 43. ( no (,<oun 01 inquiry in rcgaru m inc cxccu4Ln of three men for mutiny on board the U. 8.

The testimony haa tended only to confirm the impression first made on the public mind, that the executions were juatiliable and noeesaary. A Democratic Convention in Kentucky, on the 9th inat., nominated Col. R. M. Johnson for the Presidency, auhject to the dcciaion of a National Convention. The Senate of Illinois have paaecd u resolution declaring that there ought to be neither tariff nor direct testation imposed by Congicaa.

The report recom- ti; mended that the bill from the Treusury Depart- Hi mcnt on the subject be not adopted, and gave rise p; to a debate, in which the Whigs who spoke pro. w fesscd their continued preference for a Bank, and w the Democrats their preference for a Subtroasu- I Ji ry: ' n< " Mr. CAMPBELL, of South Carolina, did hi not rise for the purpose of discussing tbo exchequer project, more than once recommended by the President, and now reported upon unfavorably by 'c the Committee of Ways and Means, further than to say that, in his opinion, it was by no means the 111 most preposterous proposition tliat has been sub. milled to tho consideration of the American peo- 10 pie , since questions connected with the currency M have occupied so much of their attention. Even 1X1 if its merits could bo demonstrated, it would proba. bly huvc but little prospect of success in a Con. gross, utmost every member of which is pledged, ^ by his previous course, to some other proposition. ^ He had merely risen with the intention (without ,n entering into the discussion at length) of indirut. c< ing to his constituents the course which ho should 'JJ probably hereafter pursue in connexion with sub. Vl jeets of this churactcr. c< Mr. C., as his speeches sufficiently testified, c' had been always favorable to a separation of the w Government funds from the uses of banks ; but, when that proposition, so correct in principle, had l" been connected with another, requiring the public dues to be collected exclusively in specie, he had invariably voted against it?believing that such a requirement was calculated to increase the pressure v< on the commerce of the country, already almost loo great to be borne. ' Since that question, however, was last agitated ^ in Congress, a change has occurred. Hunk cir- ' culation, without any oppression on the part of the Government, has gone on gradually decreasing. until, in many of the States, tho circulation is re. P' duced below the specie actually in their vaults.? " Under lht?* circumstances, Mr. C. believed that ^ the separation of the Government funds from the business of trade, eve.: if connected with the re- " quirement of specie, or Government e.rcdits, cxelusively, in payment of the! public dues, would now be accomplished, without prmJpcing a shock upon ^ tho commerce and industry of the country. . 1,1 He had made these remarks, not because he sx- j ai peetcil, during the existence of the present Con- j c: 1 grcss, to change his vote in relation to this subject; w for having been elected by his constituents with n knowledge of his previous course, he would scarce. a? ly feel himself at liberty to do so. But lie wished cd to indicate to them, by the remarks he had sub. l'' nutted, that in the event of being returned to the at next Congress, lie would, unless a change occur, red in our monetary affairs, probably act with the Democratic parly on this subject, as he hud upon most others. c! Mr. Clay has been in New Orleans for a few til weeks on privute business. Ho was received and is treated there with extraordinary marks of re. 01 spect. The display on his reception was said to to lie the most magnificent ever made in that city. Committees from Mobile and Augusta have invi- in ted him to visit these cities before bis return Itomc, and lie is expected to do so. A public . "t meeting was also held in Charleston on the 17th j *1 instant, for the purjiosc of manifesting their re- b spcct for his character and public services, and in. ti viting him to visit that city also. The Hon. a IIknuv Mi (tin.eton presided at the meeting, and it was addressed by Messrs. Bjiyan, Pettiorl*, tl Yeadon and Coiien. A coinmittoc of 2li were Appointed to invite Mr. Clay to visit Charleston. A letter is published in the newspapers from Me. Buckingham, the former traveller and lecturer a in this country, dated Limerick, Ireland, Oct. o 1st, 1612, in which he states that although he had o oven nt irciand inrcc montlis, ami had travelled <1 through the counties of Wicklow, Wexford, Kit- i l? Kenny, Watcrford, Cork and Limerick, he had 1 ol not seen a single drunken person. Thin in a pnrt s? of the country in which drunkenness was a few , t! years ago very common. The change is ascribed j n to the recent Temperance reform, which spread in j I'that country more rapidty than even in this. d CONGRESS. t, In the House of Representative* a bill passed on h< the 17th to repeal the Bankrupt Act, by a vote of fi 140 to 71. Several attempts were made to mo- 1 n ! dify it, with a view of saving it, but they failed. ' ft ' It is considered certain that the bill will puns the : n j Senate. The House, at the date of last account, ! was engaged u|>on the bill making appropriations for the army. In the Senate, nothing of special interest is do. j ing. Considerable time is taken up daily in re- j occiving petitions, and sometimes in discussing ! b< tliein. On the 14th, a fierce attack was made j ill upon the independence of the Judiciary, by Mr. ' t,( TxprAN, who offered a resolution proposing an j 81 amendment to tho constitution limiting the term I (' of the. judges of the U. S. courts to revert years. { lie contended that inasmuch as the people in this > country are the sovereign power, the judges and all other otHccrs ought to be made immediately rub. j (? jeet to their will. Why not then abolish ull gov- i 'j* crnment except that of popular or Democratic as- ' w scmhlies? This is the result to which the Hon. I vj Senator's principles lead. The resolution was, < rr however, put to sleep ; hut it received the support } of eleven Senators, v.z. Messrs. Ai.lbn, Bcnton, ! j>j Buch anan, Fulton, Linn, Sevisr, Smith of Conn., I STunoF.oN, Tappan, Wilcox and Woodduat.? | i Mr. M'Durric voted against it.

Hid friends an: quite ' (> willing that the attempt should be made, sup- r? posing that it would oxcite public sympathy in tl hia favor and react against the whigs; und it is tl said that Messrs.

It is evident that no bill on the subject will! I in at this sesasion. The majority of the whiga ' | ill not agree to put the bill in such a shape as , i ill, in their opinion, reflect upon the motives of | I idgo Hall ; and General Jackson's friends will 1 t jt accept a bill which proposes chiefly to relieve : j m, in virtue of his public services. In the House to-day, the subject of the line was cussed, during X? morning hour, by Mr. Outr, of Ky., who w#an aid-de-eamp of Gcnerul 1 ickson, and wIki warmly advocated the instruc- ' [>ns passed for the Committee on the Judiciary. 1 Mr. Kennedy, of Md.. stated that the Commit. J c on Commerce had under consideration a bill ' 1 ilablishing a warehousing system; and offered a j 1 solution calling on the Secretary of the Treasury j 1 r information in aid of their lubors. 1 The Reports from the Committeo on Ways and ! ' leans on the Exchequer were resumed ; and Mr. ! ' ndcrwood, of Kc.-.tueky,. spoko his hour, dwell. . 1 g much on the state of the currency and the nc- j ' -ssity of resorting to a National Bank, as the on. ' f remedy for its disorders. Mr. U. also took a . * ew of the prospects of the Whig party. Ho I ) intended that it was not dead as soine had dc. ! 1 ared. Those who declared it to be prostrate \ ' ere actuated more by their hopes and fears than ' / tluir convictions. As to the New York clec- ' in, which had been relied on as a proof of the ' ct, it proved only that the Whigs staid away ' am the polls. There were forty thousand votes 1 ss than in 1840. These forty thousand did not ( >te, because they saw no prospect of advancing 1 ic Whig cause and promoting Whig policy.? lie same thing occurred in Ohio. There the cmocratic Governor was elected by a minority, 'he Whigs were kept from the polls by the con- i net of the " guard" and by the " constitutional j ict." The Whigs would learn wisdom and ex. < sriencc, and they would select no candidates in . 344, whose principles were doubtful. All the t isastcrs of the party grew from the election of j ahn Tyler. He was taken with a view to carry t ic Stato of Virginia, and the result was a just , idgment upon the Whig party for making such a , lection. lie firmly believed that the Whig par,* would be stronger in 1811 than in 181(1. lie oped that one party or the other would triumph, ! ,' 'hut the policy of the country would be based j i more sn^'!t-'J principles, und not be left to shift ' iili every breatn faction, and be subjected to ' ic interests of o!^lce.scefc^r,' ' 'IC ^ '''Ks wouhl | rain rally Upon their principle^, which were the | tublishmcnt of a sound and uniform jurrcticy ; ! c distribution of the proeccdsof the public lanosj , ^ id the curtailment of Executive power.

Since its establishment it c as expended, for lots, buildings, and repairs, ^ tout 35000 ; besides largo sums of money in y inking tip to teachers from timo to time de~ c ciencics in their salaries, aiising from inade uate receipts for tuition. Though the j ocicty has heretofore received considerable s id from citizens and others not members ; yet y ic principal burden and the whole responsi. y ility (previous to last year) has always rest- gl J on those who icere. The Socictv now insists of few in number ; and at a meeting ' nnvencd this day, it was resolved to cell the cadi inical Lots and Buildings for the pur* P :>be of paying the above debt ; unless some icasures arc promptly adopted by the com- p mnity to discharge the same. Most, perhaps II, the members of the Society are understood be willing to co operate with their fellow itizrns in this matter; but they are not dis- ' ascd tn do it without their assistance. The 10th day of next momh is fixed for w iterming upon the pale; unless, before that ? tie, the peoplo (with such arguments as satfy creditors) put their veto upon it. .
