A VIRGINIA ANTI-SLAVERY MAN. Mr. Rives, it would seem, lias not recovered thfe equilibrium of Ids wits, or ofliis temper, since the severe slinking they hud at the hands of Mr. Preston. He has rushed now into an avowal in the Senate, which will prove either a good hit, or a miserable faux pan, ns tho North or the South may hereafter have the de cision of the claims of presidential aspirants ; but if his fortune in the debate is any presage of his fate, he may look for shameful discom fiturc and dishonorable wounds. Mr. Calhoun, it scams, was so heterodox ns to a assert, that slavery, ns it oxtsled in the South, was to be regarded rather as a good,l ban ns an evil—that in all civilized society, the la. hor foll'upon one portion of Ihe co nmunily to the exemption of the other—and that the state of society in tho South resulting from the present division of labor here, was as good if not bettor than at Iho North, viewed either in a moral, social or political aspect. On this Mr. Rives rose and niter sundry awkward backings ami fillings nnd prepara tory mancuvree, poured his broadside upon our Senator, charging him as the defender of slavery in the abstract. Mr. Calhoun would not, allow himself to be charged with having said what ho did not say, —replied that ho had expressed no opinion of Slavery in the abstract,—that it was not the first time Mr. 11. had misrepresented him. He had said “ S'avcry as it here existed, was not an evil.” Those who honestly believed it was an evil, ought to unite with the abolition ists for its removal. Mr. Hives grow warm, and declared, (wo copy from the Telegraph report,) that ho “ Regarded slavery, in the abstract, and as it existed amongst us, as a great evil, moral, social and political, and that if ho had the power, he would abolish it in Virginia imme diately!” He further declared, that “Con gress was bound to receive ihu petitions;" and going oft'on this tangent, ho again assault ed Mr. Calhoun, denounced Ins argument against the reception ns a humbug, and rcitc rated his charge that Mr. C. was the atlvo. cate of slavery in the abstract. Ho was n second time roughly handled by the Southron, and told, that if there was any "humbug" in the matter, it consisted in maintaining 1 that Congress was bound to receive, and yet must not act upon the petitions. If they were beund to receive, it seemed to him that they were bound to refer, to discuss, and to report upon them. If not, the obligation to receive was the veriest of humbug. On this, Mr. Rives let Mr. Calhoun alone, and laid himself alongside of Mr. VVehstcr, (who had presented some petitions,) and told the Northern man to “ keep cool." Where upon Webster being quite cool, kept so, and very coolly told his advisor, that lie agreed with him in every opinion ho had expressed on the subject of these petitions. Jln also thoroughly agreed with him in regard to sla vary in tho abstract, and as it existed in tho South, He agreed with him, ton, in the view lie had taken of the right of petition, and he was therefore surprised to hear a lecture from him. Finding comfort and relief in handling nei ther the fire on one side, nor the ice on the other, Mr. Rives again turned from North to South, and again denounced our Senator as the advocate of Slavery. Mr. C. exposed his inconsistency and ridi culoua position, and told him that'ho ought, with such opinions, in honesty to join the abo litimiisls. T his proved a settlor, and Mr. Rives ceased firing. It is said that this Anti-Slavery gentleman has recently been elected Vice President of the Colonization Society. Ho is evidently electioneering for Northern Abolition votes— as it is said, he aspires to tiie Presidency. Some Northern prints have pronounced him ‘ more of an abolitionist than Mr. Van Bu ren." (Correspondence, of the Charleston M rruri/) WASHINGTON, Feb. 14, 1537. Mr. Adams has addressed a note to the Globe, in which ho says that ho did not con sider his Slave petition,as a “hoax," but ns the "forgery of some Slave holding master, sent to him for the purpose of daring him to pre sent a petition from Slaves." So, all this a gilation a (id exctoinent arc produced by Mr. Adams, with a view to show to sonic anony mous idler that he was not afraid to introduce a Slave petition. The motive is quite as good, however,as any other that would bo imputed to Mr. Adams. The fact is be finds the outcry against him so strong in the North, on account of his present conduct, that lie wishes to throw the responsibility of the recent agitations either upon the'Southern members, or upon sonic of their constituents. But it won’t do. It is well known here, that Mr. Adams’ purpose was mischief. He courts the Radicals, the Anti-Masons, Fan italics, and the Abolitionists, with a hope ol yet living to ride into power upon their backs. This is the key to his conduct. He will fail in his object. lie may create and consolidate the new party, but they will not trust doctrines to his control. Ho had better go to Liberia, and become the President of the infant black empire. It is the only chance ho will have to receive the “four years" which he consid ers due to his father, and the “four years," due to himself. It is now certain that no Act for the re cognition of Texian independence, will pass Congress at this session. Several of the leading Van Buren men in the House, have come out and declared that they will not gc for it, and their party will not support it.— They add, that they don’t cart a tig now foi Jackson, and it will bo vain fur him to recom mend the measure. Mr. Cambreleng has just reported another Bill approphaling a million of dollars for the Seminole campaign of this winter. That war will not costless Ilian fifteen millions !

So much for tire energy and efficiency of “my Government.” The duel fought yesterday morning between Messrs. Wm. Cost Johnson and William Schley, waaofa personal, not political origin.

With an earnest desire to uphold the gov ernment of the Union, in all its measures of foreign policy, we notwithstanding cannor re concilc the contents of the President’s Mes sage to Congress, calling on that body to grant the Executive, power to issue loiters of marque and reprisal against Mexico, with the spirit of the constitution—or conceive, that an emergency has arisen which renders such step advisable. The constitution of the Uni ted States especially invests Congress with the power to grant letters of marque and re reprisal, and why this should now be placed at the discretion of the Executive, the message assigns no reason, nor is it easy to conceive any, more particularly, os that officer lies power to convent' Congress on extraordinary occasions. It would indeed ecem that Gen. Jackson, with his last breath, is desirous to leave an injunction on his successors, to strike out for themselves somo new path, alike at variance with the path traced out hy the con stitution and that which his predecessors have trodden. The injuries of Mexico which are now complained of arc not of recent date. They have been permitted lor some time past to * slumber in the archives of the slsto depart ! ment, and are indeed ofasiinilar character,to those which at times have been infl'cted on our commerce by all the South American ] States. Yet in no instance have wo thought it advisable to resort to the ultima ratio re | gum. Allowance has been made for the dis , trscled state of those countries, for the igno . ranee and inexperience of subaltern officers , under the new state of tilings which had grown up amongst them, A. more 111 in all, have we reflected, that no honor was to bo gained, where tho foo was almost helpless—no profit, where we alone had every thing to lose and they noihing. And to Mox'ci at the present moment, these reasons it would seem apply with the utmost force. If we tnislake not, General Jackson has already expressed in relation to Texas, the necessity of observing tho utmost circumspection towards Mexico, lest our conisc should bo viewed with suspicion hy the rest of mo world, and we cannot but think that tho measure ho now recommends, would ron der ns obnoxious to the charge of endeavoring to profit by her present state of weakness, and be well calculated to elicit the interference of foreign powers. But against wlint are these letters nf marquo and reprisal to bo issued 1 Against a few mi serable Mexican coastorv, which is nil the com merce under the Mexican flag! Against one or two Brigs of War now hardly able to keep the sea, which compose the whole Mexican marine I And may not Mexico reulialo fear fully upon us 1 (Suppose she grants letters of ■unique and collects under her (lag all the buc caneers mid rovnrs that infest the Southern Continent, what will then become of our wide extended commerce 1 In the name then of our navigating interests, do wo solemnly invoke Congress not to grant the Executive the power ho asks. Our na tional honor is assuredly not involved in the question, arid our prosperity may ho most se riously affected hy it.

Extract from the Report of the Commission ers charged with the examination of har bors South nf Chesapeake Hay, with a view to the establishment of a Navy Yard. The waters forming the port of Brunswick, arc generally designated us Turtle river; but properly speaking, it is an arm of the sen, which, entering between the islands of Jekyl and St. Simons, flows into tho interior for up wards of 20 miles forming a wide, deep and swift column. As no fresh water liver emp ties into this basin, it is always salt, free from freshets, and alluvial depositee; and hence, from an early period of time, no change w hat ever lias been perceptible in the soundings or general character of the port. For from the largo islands of St. Simon’s ami Jekyl, (which are distant from cadi other about one mile,) and running seaward for six miles, are found jutting two extensive sandspits. At low wa ter portions of them are laid hare ; ant* unless the sea is unusually smooth, they form, in nearly tho whole extent, continuous lines of breakers. Between these lines of surf lies the channel, which is three-quarters of n mile wide between the spit-heads, and which enlarges to a mile soon after entering. Between the spit-heads wo found 22 found at low water. Proceeding towards the land, by traversing the whole breadth of the channel, the sound ings gradually shoaled to 18 feet, which is the least draught of w ater found in the channel way, About one mile with in the spit-heads, is the "middle ground,” which is a bank nf sand resting on tno southern or Jekyl spit,and jutting into the channel-way some 200 fa thoms ; but leaving a sufficiently wide 18 feel passage towards the Ht. Simon or northern spit, for n largo ship even with an adverse wind : tho middle ground has but 14 feet nt low water. Entering still further up, tho soundings gradually grow deeper, so lint when between the islands it has obtained a depth of 12 fathoms. The vessel is now in safety. On the right is fat. Simon’s sound, which, to gether with similar water-courses still farther north, affords a safe infernal navigation to steam boats and craft to .Savannah mid Char- Icston. To the loft is the srrn of the sea, (called the .Turtle river.) from which, by Jekyl and Cumberland sound.* is an internal navi gation as far as St. Mary’s. The course from sea to tho mouth of tho harbor i« nearly west northwest, keeping the northern breakers on hoard ; the channel then runs south and south westerly, and making a short turn to the northwest, we arrive at the town of Brunswick —insignificant nt present, but destined, we believe, though her rail road nnd canal, to fu ture importance. A shoal of soft mud close in and below the town seems to indicate some oilier point in tho harbor as a more suitable position for a navy yard.;,We believe Blylhe’e island on the opposite shore to be most eligi ble. If contains some hundred acres, cover ed with timber, and every way convenient for wharves, docks, Ac., and for a nursery of the live oak; it is distant from Brunswick two miles, and has hold water to within a few fa thoms of the shore. There is no doubt that the port may bo strongly fortified. The is lands of St. fcliinon and Jekyl present suitable positions for extensive work’s ; and sand shoal two miles within, and in the centre rtf the ri ver (dry at low water) affords a third basis for powerful defence, nnd steam batier.es will coniph to the whole. The average rise of the tide is (i f;ct, which gives at high, water, on thebnr, 28 feet; sufficient for a frigate. It is deemed healthy ; and the absence of a fresh water river, or fresh water swamps, seems to justify the opinion. From tho Arkansas Slate Gazette of tho 3rd ultimo, says the New Orleans Bulletin, we learn that the condition of tint Indians now being transported to the west, is really distressing. Thousands of (horn are represented us wholly destitute of shoes or any other covering fir the feet while very many arc in want of necessary clothing for the protection of the body. Leaving a warm climate at a pleasant season of tho year, very little preparation was made by them for i withstanding tho extreme cold to which they arc now exposed in a more northern latitude, and in this destitute condition they have been hurried i along over miery and frozen roads until many ! have had their feet frost bitten, end others have 1 been so far worn down nnd exhausted by con- j slant marching ns to bo left behind in a dying ' condition. They arc moreover, very poorly pro- ] vided with the means of subsistence, and arc often compelled from necessity to commit depre dations among the plantations along which they travel. From the general scarcity of provisions and from tho great numbers of Indians passing through tho country, (thoie being nearly 14,000 removing Westward) prices have risen vciy high, and great difficulty is experienced in procuring for them tho most necessary articles of food at any price. Corn is sold nt $1 and #1 50 per bar rel. The supply is thought to he inadequate to the consumption, mid wonderful distress is anti cipated among them before the winter season is over. Much of the snfl'oring and misery expe rienced by these Indians is attributed to the wretched method of transportation adopted by the Government, This method was to farm out the removal of tho Indians by contract, to indi viduals for so much per head, and the persons ac cepting tho contract having no other object than . tn hasten along as rapidly as possible in order that the job may be the more profitable, are now . hurrying the poor unfortunate beings to their own destruction. When tho Choctaws were re -1 moved some year or so back, officers of the army were appointed to superintend their movements ‘ advanced with them by easy and gentle stages as rapidly as Iheii condition would permit. This is ( the plan which should have been adopted now, ii s cad of intrusting tho lives of a whole nation to the mercenary feelings and views of a few rapa ' cions government speculators, whose sole concern ia to complete the task as speedily as possible ' that (bey may reap the reward of their labors. Can any one wonderthat the wretched Indians f should be dissatisfied, or that they should harbor feeling of hatred and deadly revenge against the ■ whites when such cruelties aro experienced nt their hands. They aro forced to forsake their homos, are cruelly dragged thousands of miles i through regions thinly populated and unprovided with the necessary means of subsistence, and to endure every hardship and privation that it is f possible for man to suffer without the hope of re dress or satisfaction. They would be destitute of ail the feelings common to the rare wore they to bear with resignation and in liflerenco all those . afflictions. iNTunKRTtso TO Hoiisss.—" A friend to the 1 horse ' in the Pittsburgh Gazette; cautions own ers ol horses against putting cold bits into the . mouth of the horse when the weather is much below the freezing point;—by doing so. the con sequence is. that whenever the bit touches the . tongue or lips, the skin will come off, as if burnt with a hot iron. Hence the sore tongue in hor t ses so often complained of and suffered. This fact should be made known, and the practice of , warming the bits, observed in all northern lati tudes, where the thermometer ranges between zero and the freezing temperature. If any one doubts the truth of these remarks, let him put his tongue to a piece of exposed iron m a cold morning, and he will doubt it no longer.

Audibon, the celebrated Ornithologist, his ! son, and Iris friend Edward Harris, Esq., passed ' through this city, on Saturday last, on their way ' to New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico. The • object of Mr. Audition's visit to the southwest ■ is to make researches for the completion of his ’ great work in national history. Ho intends to i return from his tour in the month of May next. Mr. Audibon is one of the most distinguished , naturalists of his age. His great work on Orni- I Urology is styled by Baron Cuvier “the most ■ magnificent monument that has ever been erected i to this department of natural science.” This work is composed of 400 drawings of birds made i during a residence of 25 years in the United Stales of America, and is published under the , protection of the King of England. The extraordinary size of the plates, says a , writer on the subject, (about 4 ' by 27 inches,) has enabled this distinguisned naturalist to figure , the large birds in their natural size, and they are [ represented in several attitudes uncording to their ’ habits. Sometime in the aet of pursuing their prey in the air, or devouring it wilh avidity; ' sometimes searching their food with an astonish ing sagacity and skill in the midst of shrubs and flowers. The plants, the eggs and nests of the birds, the insects, reptiles arc in perfect accord ance to nature, with the most rigorous exactness, ’ & the hrilliantjrSt rich coloring oftheir plumage, in the two sizes, h admirably and most truly imita ted, and gives these plates the delicacy and the fineness of a rninature painting. The whole work will cost about SBOO. We trust the city of Augusta will manifest their love of science by purchasing a copy of this superb work for the benefit of her enlightened citizens. Tnr.

Cotton.—The demand for this article continue* good, and the prices firm. The finer qualities con tinue to bo sought after, and are eagerly pi ked i p us soon as offered. The stork in the market con tinues heavy and the holders (Planters generally) hold on for higher prices We now quote 11 a 164 cents per lb. as tho going rales—l6l al7 cents for fine and choice parcels. Groceries—Continue without change, and the only article of which there is n short supply is Canal Flour—Bl3 resh was offered and refused for a con siderable parcel. Exchange—At sight on New York, not to be had from any of the Banks—4o days date (4 per cent prom.) is the shortest lime that it could be bought at this week. Freights continue at old rates—Bl per halo to Savannah, and 4 cent per lb. to Charleston. Rev ew ck the New York Market, Feb. 13. Coffee. —The transactions since our last have been to a fair extent, and although prices are rather loss fi rm, we do not vary previous quotations. The de mand has been chiefly confined to the wants of tho trade: the sales included 800 Brazil at 114 a 124; 1000 Lnguira, 12 a 121; 150 St. Domingo 101 : and I7d Manilla, 13 a 134 cents. The stock of Brazil is accumulating—of other descriptions not large. has been no essential variation in rates, though the transactions, which are principally for home use, have been much loss extensive. Tho finest qualities have become scarce, and readily command full prices, and the slock, though moder ate, furnishes some of the descriptions required. Tho sales during the past three days have included 200 biles Uplands,at 15 a 17;, 100 Mobile 15a 19; 150 Florida 16 a 18 ; and 50 New Orleans 17 a 19 cents ; together with a few parrels of extra fine quality at proportionate rates. Tho transactions ol tho week form a total of fully 2020 bales. Tho arrivals have been 2451 bales. Domestic goods —Tho business is moderate, and though scarcely as active as is usual at this period of the season, is rather increasing. No change in prices. Flour and Meal. —There has been no material va riation in the Flour market since our lastjnotice. The demand for all descriptions is only moderate, and holders are ready sellers at. former prices; sales of fair to good common brands Canal at 811,87} a sl2, the beet fancies are held at 812 25; George town sold at 811 75; Alexandria, Si I 374 a sll 50; Baltimore, Howard street,superfine, 811 75 ; and su perfine Wharf do. $11; small sales of bndded Balti more, made from Foreign Wheat, at 81025, cash. The demand is moderate for Corn Meal, and prices without alteration. For Rye Flour, which is ex tremely scarce, we advance our quotation to $8 75 Grain —There has boon more disposition shown to purchase Foreign Wheat) within a few days past, and prices for the priraest qualities ore rather im proving ; 7000 bushels prime new Hod Herman, of the crop of 1836, and 11 a 12000 Red German, also prime, have been sold at prices not made public. Fo reign Rye declined; a sale of 1000 bushels was made at 81-45,60 days. There has been a falling olf in the price of Oats in consequence of plentiful re ceipts from the South; Southern may bo quoted 56 a 58 cents, by cargo ; and Northern are retailing at 73 cents. Corn also has been appearing in great er quantities, and the sales have been somewhat ex tensive, although without material change in price; sales of 1000 busliels North Carolina at 81 05, run nine measure; 2700 do, 81 134 561b5.; 6000 Virgin ia, 81 06 a1 03 measure; 4200 do, at a’price not made public; and 1000 Yellow Delaware, $lO6, also by measure.

Wo have also revised our quotations of Bar Iron. Nails are without alteration. Hardware by the package is in considerable demand for this pe riod of the season. Molasses —The sales of Molasses have been con fined to small parcels from second hands as wanted fir present use; a rargo of Matanzas, just arrived, remains ntloal unsold. Provisions —Fho demand is animated for Mess Beef, of which the stock is small, while other descrip tions of Beef and Pork arc in limited request: a sale of 500 brls old Prime Beef, city inspection, has been made at $7,50. Considerable supplies of Mess and Prime Pork, via New Orleans has caused a reduc tion tor both of 50 cents per barrel; we now quote Mess $23,50 a 824 ; and prime $lB a $18,50. Lard is dull, and plenty at 134 al6 cents. Butter is with out improvement. Cheese is in good demand, and still becoming scarce; wo advance our quotation to 9 n 11! cents. Smoked Beef is plentiful, and m but slight demand at 104 cents. Hams still heavy. Bacon remains scarce, and brought 14 cents. Rags —The slock ot Foreign has become greatly reduced, and the assortment is very imperfect, prices are consequently inclin : ng upward. Rice —'l here has been a steady fair demand for Rice, and the sales, which have boon mostly forex port, h ive embraced during the week 500 tierces at §3,0il at 84 ; per 100 lbs including, however, only 40 oi|so tiercea strictly prime quality at the latter rate. The slock is becoming somewhat diminished and for the b»st descriptions a slight advance has been obtained. Salt —An entire invoice of 1200 sacks Liverpool, Ashton’s, has been sold, part at 82,621, on lime, and ( the residue at some reduction from that rate.

Seig nelle 81,3-1 ; and qr. casks Champagne 81,50. The various brands of Holland Gin are without variation ; i sales of New England Hum at 46 cents cash, for bar- 1 rcls, and 46!, 4 mos. forhhds.

Croix, received yesterday, will be landed this day weather permitting; the only sale to our knowledge is 500 baskets Ja-a, on terms not transpired. Freight —Wo make no alteration in our rates to Liverpool and Havre; there is very little offering at present fur either poit.

The transactions were ex tensive on England anil France, but limited in other descriptions, owing to a scarcity of Bills. Export of Specie this week, 835,170. —Price Current. From Levy’s New Orleans Price Current, Feb. 18- Colton. —Arrived since the 10th instant, 16,053 . bales. Cleared in the same time. 16,004 bales ; making an addition to stock of 49 bah s, and leav ing on band inclusive ol all on ship board not clear ed on the 16th instant, a slock of 103,577 bales. Transactions have been on a very moderate scale this week, and prices for Tennessee and North -4ill- I hainas have declined fully 1 cent, lots that last week would bring 12, being now worth only 111. In Louisianas and Mississippis there is no change that can be quoted, but the feeling in the market towards ’ the lower grades, in consequence of the great abun dance of those qualities this season, and the expect i ed increase of Tennpssecs and North Alubamas, i continues to be decidedly unfavorable. The finer 1 qualities are exceedingly scarce, and consequently t are in good demand. The stock on sale, of all de scriptions, is small at this moment, and this is said > to be one of the principal reasons why business has t been so light.
