C Preston, and for six years from the -1th of March next. ’ The Hon. John C. Calhoun has resigned his seat in the Senate, to take effect after the 4th of March next, and Judge Butler is announced to fill his vacancy. Pardon of Col. Webb.—The New York papers p f Tuesday afternoon state that Governor Seward has given an unconditional pardon to Col. Webb, convicted on his own plea of the intent to fight a duel- We have not yet seen the grounds upon which the Governor bases his exercise of the exec utive power in this case. Upon the reception of the pardon, the Colonel immediately left the Tombs for inoro comfortable quarters at home. Cot- Edwards.—The last operation of “the great financier” was decidedly the greatest. He cheated the lawyers who defended him on his trial, hy paying them for their services with forged cheek*' A liberal reward is offered by Messrs. C. A. and E. M. Crawford, of Columbia county, for the ap prehension of James Roney, charged with the mur der of William H. Crawford, on Saturday evening last.

Railway across Florida.—A correspondent of the New York Commercial Advertiser, calls the attention of capitalists to a project for constructing a railroad across Florida Peninsula, extending from the 8t. John to the Suwanee river, so as to form a link in the line of travel, by which passengers from New York will reach New Orleans in six or seven days. Death of a Washingtonian.—George Stcars, one of the six reformed drunkards, who laid the foundation of the “ Washington Temperance Soci ety," died at Baltimore on Sunday, the 29ih ultimo. The survivors of the battle of Bunker Hill, or of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, says the Maine Temperance Gazette, will scarcely be regarded with deeper veneration than will the sur- 'iw>rs of this little hand of moral patriots, as they pass to the repose of the grave. The first Presbyterian church of New York has presented 812,000 to the Bible Society, the pro-1 ceods of a Kingi.* collection. j It is estimated that about twenty-five thousand persons have already applied for the benefit of. the bankrupt law, throughout the Union. Sale of Andalusia.—A friend who was present day before yesterday, at Mr. Biddle's country seat, when it was sold at auction, has furnished some interesting facts in the case, which we cannot pub lish before to-morrow. Mrs. Biddle bought the whole estate for 88,000, only half a dozen persons being present, except the members of the faintly.— There were three mortgages on the property, amoun ting to nearly 8130,000.

Salt.—Those salt manufacturers of New York, who not long ago sent Henry Clay twenty-three bar rels of that article, were witty fellows in thus prac tically joking him upon the spoiled state of his pros pects. The joke—not the prospects—has been be coming better and better ever since. He lias been beaten in almost as many states as there were bar rels of salt.—Pennsylvanian.

It is with deep regret that we announce the death of the Hon. RICHARD W. HABERSHAM, who closed his mortal career during the past week, lie is gone, and has left a void that will be felt by all who venerate worth, talents and sterling integrity. Mr. II. was a native of Savannah, the son of the Hon. James Habersham, who was one of the early patriots of the Revolution, who, if yve mistake not, was, during a part of that trying period, acting head of the provincial Government. Mr. II. received the rudiments of education in his birth place, whence he went to one of the North ern Colleges, we believe Harvard, for the comple tion of his education. He returned to Savannah, where he commenced the legal profession and con tinued an ornament to it, until he removed, a few years ago to the upper country, and established his roai.lsnoe in the county bearing the family name. There he has been called to teiminate his career, while j/ct in tkaAai -igwiir of nicnml pUWCTS, and at the comparatively early age of not more, we think from early reminiscences, than 57 or 8 years In Mr. II. the character of the family was not on ly upheld, but transmitted to his children unimpair ed. And who that ever knew R. W 11., but ac knowledged his sterling integrity, and otvned. com bined with the utmost amenity of manners, the fas cinations of his intellect. Diffident in a high de gree, he was not one who forced himself into notice but to know him, was to esteem him. While member of a political party, he was yet no partizan no demagogue who could see no merit in an oppo nent—he acknowledged this whenever and wherev er met, and gave his friendship to men, and his sup port to measures, on account oftheir intrinsic worth regardless of party views in every respect. Of his patriotism, who can doubt in the least when his letter of resignation of the post of District Attorney is recalled to mind—a resignation that took place when he felt, that from the state of affairs I between the General Government and Georgia, du ring the Government of George M. Troup, he might 1 be placed in a situation of apparent hostility to his native State. Of Ins political integrity, the last years of his life spent in Congressional duties, give the clearest proofs. Ills advocacy ot party meas ures, as such, is nowhere to be found, but judging Irom head and heart, lie espoused those measures that promised benefit to his country, not strength to a party. No factious course attaints his name, it stands pure and unsullied—his opposition was open and honorable. And while he attacked, with all the powers of his mind, the measures of an antago nist, no word fell from his lips, to wound the sensi bility, or raise up one unfriendly feeling in the bo som of that antagonist. In him the halls of Con gress have lost a gentleman, his party an honor, and his native State one of her first ornaments. In his decease, all have cause to mourn, for he is a loss indeed. He was one of nature's nobles, and “ an honest man—the noblest work of God.” DIED, At his residence, near Watkinsville, on Friday morning last, EDWARD PAINE, Esq.

An Abolitition Kidnapper Caught.—A man named Palmer, in Huron county. Ohio, was overta ken. on Wednesday last, near Norwalk, by several Kentuckians, whose slaves he had secreted, and was conveying them to the mouth of Huron, and from thence to he taken to Canada. He had thir teen under his charge, twelve of whom belonged to the Kentuckians; and after an impartial examination liefoie a Justine in Norwalk, was committed to jail to await his trial at the Supreme Court in Columbus Funeral Procession.—The burial of the Coon was celebrated by the Democrats of Albany on Thursday niglit last, by appropriate ceremonies.— The Argus says: “The bonfires which reddened the sky in all directions—the heavy boom of the gi ns from the Capitol Hill—were in keeping with tho solemn procession which dragged its slow length through the principal streets with flambeaux appropriate transparencies, to music, which at times was dirge-like enough. The principal ob ject in the procession was ‘that same oid coon’ on a bier, carried by pall-bcarers, and decently ‘laid out.’ ” Millerism.—Mr. Miller, the end of the world prophet, is said to be building up a solid brick wall around his farm, near White Hall, New York, which will probably endure for a thousand years. A person offered him 82,000 for the farm, and not to take possession till after 1843; the prudent prophet refused, however, alleging that such an of fer, depending, as it does, upon a future event, is nothing more than gambling. Presence of Mind in a Woman.—The Hartford • Courant relates the following expedient by which Mrs. Clark, formerly Miss Perkins of Norwich, Conn., saved her life and that of her two daughters —being on board the steamboat Vermillion, lately burnt on Lake Huron. Her daughters were one six and the other twelve years of age. “They were at the stern of the boat, and finding no other way of escape, she dropped them into the water, giving them directions to seize hold of a chain as they rose, which she pointed out, and which was attached to the boat. Seeing them successful, she jumped into the water herself, and they all three kept hold orihe cliain until assistance came to their relief." Gen. Cass.—We observe that the Paris corres pondent of the National Intelligencer, at Paris, says that a dinner "’as to be given to our distinguished countryman by our fellow citizens there on the 11th, as “a fitting testimonial of their esteem and regard.” Each subscription thirty francs ; politics excluded.

The Typographic Arts.—-The London type setting machine in the estimation of the Repertory of the Arts, is destined to be the spinning jenny of printing. The keys it is said, will clear out 450 letters per miuute, when played at random. An assistant justifies each line. It is then lowered in to a galley. The same journal says compositors who have seen the machinery at work, admit that a revolution in this branch of the arts must take place. Massachusetts Elections.—We have the Bos ton papers of Thursday. The Atlas of that day K ' es returns of the election of 177 Whigs and 173 co Focos to the House A Wise Judge.—Judge Grier, of Pa., in his charge to the jury in tho case of Craig vs Parkin, notices, as among the cardinal vices of the age, that of not paying the printer.

Nothing more is now requisite to ensure its per manence than the continued and cordial support of the inhabitants ot- the Southern portions of the Union; and an appeal is confidently made to the generous and patriotic feelings of all Southerners, not to suffer the present Review to languish from the want of that sustenance which they can so well afford. In its political character this Review will be Democratic, and while avoiding carefully schisms merely local in their nature, it will strenuously up hold Southern Interests, and advocate all questions of national importance with boldness and freedom. It is not intended, however, absolutely to exclude all articles maintaining principles diff erent from our own; but if otherwise worthy of admission, they will be inserted with a notice that the editors do not hold themselves responsible for the doctrines alleged. All religious discussions, of a sectarian nature, will be sedulously eschewed, and the Re view will preserve a perfect impartiality towards all religious denominations. Thn work will lie printed on the best paper, and with the best type, and every exertion will be made to render It worthy of the patronage of the public generally. It will be issued quarterly from Charles ton, in January, April, July and October; and ar rangements have been made, since its removal to this city, to insure the regular and punctual delive rv of every number as it appears, so that no disap pointment may hereafter arise from any failure in this respect.
