Many circumstances concurred i render the event one of more Ilian ordinary interest, lie reappearance of Mr. Webster in the Senate, and the subject of Ins first address to that body, brought crowds to the Senate Chamber. Mr Bate*, too, had been lung known and highly respected here, and his death was deeply and generally lamented. He was one ‘ the modern school of politicians; he had no fanali- m; no animosities of office, llis views were eleva- , and his manners refined, frank and courteous. The loss of such men, as they drop off one after the other, cannot be too much deplored. Wo cannot say of them as the golden bough, that on boing torn away another will appear. Mr. Webster's eulogy was aintplo and uneffectcd, d devoid of any effort for display. His emotions fre quently choked his attorance, and many in the hall and gallenca wept as ho presented in succession, and in vivid light tho picture of the death bed, the mourning of relatives ami friends, and the gloom spread over the beautiful town of tho residence of the deceased. After a momentary pause, Mr. Huger, of South Car olina, rose, unexpectedly to the particular frionds of the deceased, and volunteered his testimony to the worth and the gentlemanly bearing of the departed Senator.— Mr. Huger spoke in an eloquent and impressive man- ncruf the character of Mr. Bates as a Senator. "Mas sachusetts.’’ he said, “would find a successor, but Itap- >y would it be for Massachusetts, and happy for us, liould she find one of such senatorial characterestica, such honor, intelligence and urbanity." It struck every one as peculiarly proper that the de parture of a Senator of what may bo termed tho old school should be thus spoken of by the only remaining Senator of that age and order ; and it was more par ticularly appropriate, inasmuch as these Senators wero of opposite politics, and belonging to Stales whose re cent attitude towards each other has been unfriendly.

In pursuance of a call of the Chairman of the Bald, in county Agricultural and Horticultural society, a number of the citizens of the county assembled at the Court House, when on motion of Dr. Cotting, Maj. Ricii'd Rowell was called to tho chair, and B. T. Be- thune requested to act as Secretary. The object of the meeting having been explained by the chairman, it was on motion Resolved, That the chair appoint twenty delegates to represent the county of Baldwin in the contemplated Agricultural Convention of tho State of Georgia, to bo liuld in this city, on the fifth Monday in March instant.; whereupon the chair appointed the following genllo- men as delegates to said convention:—His Excellency Geo.

In the course of tho day, ho was called on by the Com mittee of fitly, Henry Bailey, Esq., acting as chairman, and at 4 o'clock the Aldermen of tbo city, tho Judges, tho City Attorney, and a fow other guests, partook of a dinner provided for the occasion. Air. C. left for his residence in Pendleton yestorday morning. Tho Washington Constitution, after announcing Air. Calhoun’s departure from Washington, remarks, that he “remained in the State Department till Monday, by thn request of Mr. Buchanan, to complete some mat ters of business which were nearly finished, and which it was comparatively easy for him to dn, because famil iar with their details, but which would have occasion ed Ins successor much time and labor to have arrived at the same point of familiarity. His parting with the President, we understand, was most cordialand gratify ing, aliko creditable to the feelings and frankne ss of both. Alost, if not all, the Heads of Departments, waited an him at his lodgings, and took leave of him in the same frank and kind spirit. Mr. Cralle, his late Chief Clerk, and family, departed at the same time, for his home in Virginia. Air. Cralle resigned his sit uation of Chief Clerk, deeming it nothing more than repectful and right, that Air. Buchanan should be left free to choose some more intimsto friend to occupy those close and confidential official relations with Inin " Charleston Courier. This is an important article to travellers.

Its superiority over the ordinary air hag, consists, first, in its being inflated in a moment of timo without the aid of the breath.— Secondly, when inflated, the water prool covering ia distended by an ingonious apparatus within, and per. manently remains so whilst aruuud the chest, or other wise elongated.

Tho mind run* a similar career in its onward progress, but not in its retrogression. Though tho inroads of dis ease or tho feebleness of sensibility may fetter its pow ers and obscure their brightness, yet the fact that in tellect i» frequently retained in its pristine vigor by the advanced in years, is an argument that the mind does not necessarily retrogrado in old age.

The Mails.—Wo learn that a change in the timo of the arrival and departure of the mails is in contempla tion by our Railroad and Steamboat Companies, by which the cars will be delayed each day tn Macon until 10 o’clock, A. AI. and arrive at Savannah same even ing. The Charleston boats will not leave until after the arrival of the can. and take the outer passage to Charleston, arriving at that place in time to connect with tho Wilmington boatB tho following day, thus gaining twenty.fuur hours io timo going North. By the present arrangement the mail and passengers from the West do not reach Alacon until 10 o’clock each day, after the departure of the cars, and are consequently layed nearly twenty-four hours io their progrcisNorth Coming Mouth we learn, the boatB will leave Charles ton at 9 o'clock, A M. as at present, and tho mail will be due hero by 10 o'clock, P. M., perhaps generally ar. rive by 7 o’clock. The cars will leave for Macon im mediately after tho arrival of the boats, instead of next morning. This arrangement, though it will convert our nights into days, and increase our labors, already arduous, we regard.as prefcraklo to the present lardy and uncertain arrangement of the boats. While on the point, we may as well express our gratification that tho enterprising proprietors of tho steamboat line, Alcssrs. Brooks & Barden, have a new steamer in progress of construction at Charleston, of in creased dimensions. She will be of about 250 tons burthen, and so arranged as to make the trip between the two cities in from seven to eight hours. It is con templated to press her completion as rapidly as possi ble; at any rale she will be ready for the fall travel, and we are assured will be one of the finest boats which has been lately seen upon our waters.—Repub. Something tor the Doctors.—A journal of Rich* inond, (Eug.) records the following case of death under extraordinary circumstances. Wo copy it as a hint io medical men of some interest and importance. A policeman died in Richmond Hospital, a few day since, from the effects of this terrible disease, after five days’ illness. It was supposed the disease tvas com- muiiicaled to him by drinking water from a bucket which a carman had been supplying to a horse. After some hours the diseaso began to manifest itself, and thn unfortunate man tvas conveyed to Richmond Hospital in a state of groat pain. The medical men did not for sonto time understand the nature of the complaint, but as tho symntoms became more decided on rigid inquiry they came to tho conclusion that Ihe patient had "horse fancy,” and ill order to prove their opinions a horse tvan inocculaled with somo ol the matter taken from a pus. tule, and in a short time lie died. There was a post mortem examination held on the man by an eminent surgeon of this city, who tvas so apprehensive of dis ease that he performed the operation with gloves on — Frightful as tho external appearance of the unfortunate man's body tvas, the internal was still more shocking; the heart, stomach, nnd liver being covered with ulcers and all in a high state of inflammation: This is amongst the very fotv unauUi enticated facts which prove that the disease is comtr unicable to man. following i rier of the 11th inst. “Wo wero shown yesterday by our valued friend, Samuel T.

'SS*£Ki2: n,Ji Mr. Webster.—Tha Broadway Journal Bays.-— “There have been a great variety of statements in the newspapers, the past month or two, respecting a mag nificent donation said to have been made to Daniel Webster, to induce him to return to the Senate. The facts are, that certain gentlemen, feeling that lho wel fare of the country demanded his presence in the Sen ate, and knowing that his privato affairs were not in a condition which would admit of his return to public life, without making a greater sacrifice than hit duty to Ins family would permit, opened a subscription, among a very limited number of course, with the object of raising l hundred thousand dollars, to be invested for his benefit. About sixty thousand were subscribed in Boston, and the remainder in New York. The income to be given to Air. Webster during hia life and contin. ued la Mr*. Webster during hers, after which tho prin. cipal is to revert to tho original donors or their heirs. We believe this to be a tribute to genius without a par. allel, in the history of our owu or any other country. It matters not what the object of the donors may be. As an acknowledgement of the greatness of lho reci pient, it is alike equivocal and honorable to him, whe. thortheir motives be mercenary or patriotic. For our own part, we think that the transaction nflects tha high est honor oo ail partioa concerned, and we wish we had ly in tho cars of many of our metropolitan readers : in old times it was the custom of the merchants of the city of New York to keep their accounts in pounds, shillings and ponco currency. About fifty years ago, a frugal, industrious Scotch merchant, well known to tho then small moi-cantilo community of this city, had by dint of fortur me commercial adventure and economy been enabled to bbvc something like four thousand pounds ; a c msiderable sum of money at that period, and one whir.h secured to its possessor a degree ol en viable iudop ciidence. His places of business and resi. donee were, us was customary at that time, under the same roof, lie had a clerk in Ills employment ivhoso reputation rm an accountant inspired :lie utmost confi. deuce of his. master, whose frugal habits he emulated with the tr no spirit and feeling of a genuine Caledonian, it was usi ial for the accountant to make an annual bal ance shoe t, for the inspection of his master, in order that lie m.ight seo what had been tlio profits of his busi ness for'.lie past year. On this occasion tho balance sheet sh owed to the credit of the business six thousand pounds, which somewhat astonished tho incredulous men-.ha'at- 'It cauna' be,’said lie; ’ye had better coiant up age s. Idinna think lha’ had aao profitable a Ijces- nesu as this represents.’ The clerk with his usual pa tience re-examined the statement, and declared that it was ’a ’ right,’ and that he was willing to wager his sal ary U| ion its correctness. Tho somewhat puzzled mer- chant scratched hia head with surprise, and commenced addir.g up both sides for himself. It proved right. -I did n .a' think,' said he, ’that I was worth over four thou sand pounds : but ye ha’ made me a much richer man. We el, weel, I may ha’ been mair successful than I had tho’t, and I’ll na’ quarrel wi’ inysel’ for being worth sax thousand instoad.’ At early candle light tilt store wa.a regularly closed by the faithful accountant; and as soon as he had gone, tho sorely perplexed and incredu lous merchant commenced the painful task of goingover and examining all the accounts for himself. Night af ter night did ho labor in his solitary counting-house alone, to look for tho error; but every examination con firmed the correctness of tho clerk, until the old Scotch, man began to bolievo it possible that ho was really worth 'sax thousand pounds.' Stimulated by this addi tion to hia wealth, he soon fell a desire to improve tho condition nf his household ; and with that view, made purchases of new furniture, carpets and other elegan ciee, consistent with the puaition of a man possessing the largo fortune of six thousand pounds. I’ainlcrsand carpenters were set to work to (ear down and build up, and io a short timo the gloomy looking residence in Sione-strcct was renovalcd|to such a degree as to at tract lha curiosity and envy of all his neighbors. The doubts of the old man however will still obtrude them, aelvea upon his mind ; and lie determined once more to moke a thorough examination of his accounts. On a dark and stormy night, he commenced hia la bora with the patient investigating spirit of a man da' termiud to probe the matter to the very bottom.
