'i'liL* ■, nibeis almost universally (with the

object of the call. It w s tinders* ood how
ever, that the object of tlie rnei ting was to
nominate Mr Lowndes as a candidate for

an hon. tv.embc from Charleston called
the attention el the members present to the

the boh. Samuel Warren should take the
chair There arc one hundred and sixty
iiine members who constitute both branch
es of the 1- g.'fiature, one hundred and ten

member from Charleston staled the object

-1 tliorizi.d from letters that he had received
,- from characters of influence in New Yoik,

S. Carolina would nominate Mr. I,owinies
- he might succeed to the office of the

's On which, adebate took ptacc, a d an
intemperance of expression was use d, a

It is a mistake if the idea is or shall be
lueriaim d, that there is a division ofopiu

of there three prominent men. A division

neese. Mr. Lowndes, was nominated as
tlie honoiablc member who proposed him
distinctly stated, in opposition to Mr. Cal
houn—no name was mentioned but Mr.
Low tides’. No person was authorised to
say tlia; Mr Calhoun would be a candidate.
It would have been imprudent for any
Ca o!in an io have said otherwise.

are authorized by a friend of Mr. Jeffer

declare that that gentleman never wrote
such a letter, never put pen to paper on
that subject, and studiously avoids all
conversation on it.

never believed for one moment that Mr. J.

We learn that .i new Tragedy called tli a
, Patriot,from the pen of Mr. Charlton, the
author of Matilda, will bepresented forper
- fonnance this spring. The scene is laid in
- South-America, and embraces the life of the
1 celebrated Chief Capauiicon. We have not
i seen the piece ourselves—it is believed to
t be a better production, from information,
; than Matilda, having all the beauties of (hat
. unique production, and more incident and
: pageantry. S Recorder.
