matter on Friday afternoon, when Mr. Cilley practiced with the rifle for nearly an hour, and succeeded in putting a number of bijlls in suc cession, in the space of about three.square in ches, at the distance of eighty paces. . So .that, he was no indifferent marksman, and this.may account for his alledged presumption in choos ing that weapon to fight a Kentuckian. Mr. Graves also spent some time in trying his rifle. It is an excellent piece, and was borrowed by Mr. Menifee, a friend, o| .JVJr, | Graves, from Mr. Rives, of the ‘Globe,’ who however was.not apprised at the time, rtf, the use to which it was to be applied. The. rifle, used by Mr. Cilley was some inches shorter. The greatest secrecy was observed, and yes terday morning when Mr. Graves left the city-, he informed his wife that he Was going to at tend a public dinner in Baltimore. But not withstanding their caution, the affair got windj and Mr. Mercer of Virginia, was at Bladens bur'’’ with Police Officers, an hour before the meeting took place. Owing to this, the par ties drove to another place, about three miles distant, and where there was no danger of their being molested. It appears that Wise and Menifee acted as seconds to Graves, and Bynum and Calhoun of Kentucky, for Cilley. They were put up 1 nt about eighty paces, and in such a position , as to fire across the wind, which was blowing j very keen at the time. The first and second ; rount! was attended with no effect, as it ap pears they fired too high, and was much an noyed by the intense cold and high wind. At the third fire Mr.Cilley was shot in the kidney, and instantly fell, breaking the slock from his' rifle in the fall. He expired in about three mi nutes afterwards. Another account is, that an attempt was made to adjust the affair after the first fire, but • that it was rendered ineffectual by the refusal ' of Wise. Mr. Duncan, of Ohio, attended as physician i and he on leaving the ground, is reported to have said, “that it was a d d cold blooded murder, and tlmt Webb should not leave Washington city, if he (Duncan,) could-any Low get him to fight.” It is also rumored that there was much un fairnessin placing Cilley in a bad position. I 1 have no idea that the affair w ended, and I I predict that we shall have three or four hiore duels growing out of ike affair. February 26. There is a general manifes’atiou of feeling against Mr. Wise, for his conduct in this ml- ; affair, as had it not been for his re fusal, the matter would have been settled after i the first fire. I have just been conversing ; with some of his pohtical friends, and they tool are loud in their condemnation. Webb has not yet left the city, keeping h’m- I s*lf»s 1 understand, closely confined to bis room. REACTION IN NEW YORK. The Federal’prints are njoicing at carrying i th. ir ton ii elections, (Clay. Schoharie, and i ('nnjoharie) in New York, with, ns the Argus! shows, “an aggregate Federal‘loss since the Iva! election, of some ten ar fifteen voles ’* The Argus tliwi thufi s- ttlcsthe account with them ns far ns tlto elections have gone; “N<»v , note the other side of the account. ’The Republicans have carried six Oat of seven towns in Ooeid i, with an aggregate majority of 727, an I a Democratic gain since last fall of 6931 They have -carried two of the three ; towns hen rd from in Schoharie county, (Sha. ron, and Cobleskill, ami Schoharie, as above,) by an aggregate majority of 70, and a Demo, crntic gnirj since lasi fall of 437? The towns of Florida and Glen, Montgomery county, by decisive majorities, and a Democratic gain since last fall of at least 69. The town of Guilford, Chenango county, by a majority of 56, and a Republican gain since last fall of 65. The town of Watertown, in Jefferson county, 1 by nn average majority oi‘ from 10 to 35, show. | n Democratic gain of 80; and the town of| Hampton, Washington county, by u majority of 10. being a Republican gain since last fall I of twelve. “Thus we have nn aggregate Democratic gain in the seventeen towns as far ns heard from, including the Evening Journal’s three ‘glorious triumphs,’ of tun Ire hundred and nine- 1 ty seven votes! If the gain be twelve hundred and ninety-seven in seventeen towns, what may wo expect in the remaining seven hundred? Really, ‘the ‘pressure’ must be pushed to a ‘pa nic,’ a still stronger cry of ala rm must go forth, Mid the little, bill clamor must be greatly ex tended, or tho last fall’s ‘triumphs’of Federal • i ism will be as temporary as th»y were unreal and unexpected.” DEBATE IN THE SEN A PE. Mr. Calhoun delivered his views to-day on the Independent Treasury bill of the Finance Committee, and Mr. Rives' 1 substitute. The members of the House and Senators who have known him longest, consider it the most splen did and powerful intellectual effort of his life. We listened to him with admiration. It re quires n great mind and a good cause to pro. rfuce the impression which Mr. Calhoun made on all around him. On former occasions, the extraordinary efforts of Mr. Calhoun wore those of “a strong man in a morass He is now on firm ground, and no man can cover more of it at a single bound, or repeat his flight with greater rapidity, than Mr. Calhoun. His groat faculty is generalisation—simplifying argument into the clearest axioms. We consider his speech as decisive of the question. Mr. Rivas’substitute is annihilated. Tho fallowing appointments, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate of the In jled States, have been made, viz: Francis H. Gregory, to be a Captain in tho Qlavy, from the 31st January, 1838. ' Samuel Downing, to be a Commander in the Navy, from the 2 3d September, 1837. ■Benjamin Macomber, to be a Captain in the Marine Corrs, from the 18th January, 1838. 1 Archibald 11.

Official Information Has been received by thejleparijrn'ent of State at Washington, from the Consul of the United’States at Paris, of the deaths of the folibw'mg citizens of this coun try, in that city: 'Franklin Hume nhd Jones Winster of Geirtiantovvn; Dunscomb Bradford, of New York; and John Nesbit of Georgia, stu dent of mathematics and civil engineering. The town of AVoodstock in Vermont, has been almost depopulated by the small pox. 'The dead were buried at night without any of the usual ceremonies, and it was with the grea test difficulty that persons could be found to perform the last offices. Such was the alarm in the neighborhood that the farmers closed doors against the fugitives and refused to sell them the common necessaries ot life. The Postmaster General has offered ti re ward of-S6OO for the apprehension of the rob bers of the United States mail, Hear Stockstort in this Slate on the 19th ultimo. He also re quests all those who forwarded either money or drafts by the mails of the 47th'and 18th, to furnish the Postmaster at New’ Orleans with descriptions of the same.

We are informed that the Habersham Iron Works and Manufacturing Company, have just declared a seine-annual dividend of eleven dallais per share of one hundred dollars. This company was chart' red at the last legislative session, with the usual privileges granted to such associations. We are happy to perceive such evidence of the value of our heretofore uneKplored internal resources, and hope that •the company will not only carry out their ex tensive designs, but also continue to realize profils they so justly deserve. Pioneers in any undertaking must necessarily incur the risks attendant on experiment, and should therefore be entitled to larger returns than those who are content to fifllow the footstepsof their pre decessors. The-company owns decidedly the best water power in the state, besides iron orc titnlter, limestone, and oeery other material required for carrying on extensile manufac turing operations. The works are situated about three miles from elarkesviHe, in Haber sham county, and are highly spoken of by all who have visited them. — Constitutionalist. I'he Ice Boat.— Thiscraft is doing her du. tv well. ‘She walks through the frozen river as it her wheels Xvere merely playing with the summer tide. Her service is abundantly test ed. On recent occasions she has gone at the rate of about six miles per hour. The ice is broken up around her track in slender frag ments, and with the greatest apparent ease, it is now quite thick in the Delaware, being in some places from eight to ten inches in depth but it forms no impediment of moment, I would seem, to the boats progress.

Twelve built nt Jefferson, ville and New Albany, received their engines, and were finished at this place.
