It would take more time, than i. present have to spare, to enumerate all the {dividual* who are held np before the eyes of the resident elect, for the purpose of securing some nag birth under bis patronage. Almost every tan who has favored his electio'a, no matter how (significant his services, seems to think himself en. tied to he rewarded for his disinterested patriot, im and zeal in securing the old hero’s election, [’here are so many hungry wolves in waiting, that , fear his Excellency will be so unfortunate as to (fend some at loast of those warm and disinterested^ rends who have gone the “whole hog," not by the i w ptace in the Presidential chair General An- [ew. Jackson, bnt to provide a comfortable birth ■ their distinguished Mints. There was a time, a certain colony in these-United States, when it j found necessary to inflict penalties upon any Lrsob who should refuse ta accept of an office to [hich he had been elected: These were golden ne s—no office seekers, it would seem, who wete a,V to seize upon the offices of State, with the ip:,city of a hungry wolf. But there is no defi- jency of them at the present day. and we hope Old Hickory" may get rid of them with the same se that lie has heretofore ridden his country of brei^vt foes. SUGAR. The numerous experiments that have been made, I various parts of the State, are sufficient evidence ftlie practicability of cultivating the Sugar Cane, i high up as the 83d degree of latitude; while the lady market for Sugar, and the low price of our Ifgent staple, are an sufficient evidence of its ex- lilimcy. The best of Upland Cottou at this time L re |y brings 7 to. 8 cents per pound; and there is i prospect of its%eing any better—oif the contra- L, its increased cultivation is making it every year lure plenty and less • profitable. At this time, in le interior, it costs the planter nearly two pounds \ ginned Cotton to jntrcliase one of Sugar! And ft, experiments have proved, that the same land 11 labor required to make one hundred weight of ptton, will make three hundred of Sugar! The iter is becoming convinced of this fact, and ma- ii, our enterprising neighbors are going largely J'o the cultivation of the Sugar Cane, lit will bq.a proud day foi our State, when her livers instead of bringing Sugar, Molasses aud i.n, upstream, will be seen performing tlie more I'.ural office of carrying these articles down—and i we prophecy will.be the case before many its. The difficulty of making a sudden transi tu from one system of Agriculture to another; the •uy of seed; and the absence of experience ll the necessary machinery, may delay this im- lchange for some thru, even after every bo- :j convinced of its utility; but it will eventually | fivpiigln about. , l lar *3 portion of South-Carolina, ono half of |>org.a, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Sic- ether with the whole of Florida, are capable of bdacing Sugar to advantage. The introduction this staple would of course reduce the quantity of It'on made some 3 or 499,000 bales—aud tlierc- I wake that article tntite profitable to those who ptinued to cultivate it. Washington, February 3, In tlie Senate- of the Uuiicd S'ates, yester day, .besides other business, a Committee was appointed, consisting of Mr. Tazewell, Mr. Sanford and Mr. Webster, to“join sucli Com mittee ns may be appointed on tlie part of Ihe House of Representatives, to ascertain aud re port a inode of examining the votes for Presid ent and Vice President of the United States, and of notifying the persons elected of their election. The Senate, at an early hour, again went in to the consideration of Executive business, and continued with closed doors during the whole remainder of its sitting.

Lorenzo Dow.—This strauge, eccentric, and talented individual, has been with us the last two or three weeks, and hns discoursed to very large, respectable, and attentive audiences.— Mr. Dow, as a theologian and a controversalist, has but few if any superiors, and had he been ambitious of the honors and regalia of (lie church, and had devoted himself to the propa gation of Sectarian principles, might have-held a rank among the most celebrated Divines of tho Union. • Mr. Dew, is a man of extraordinary powers; a ve tt of rich and.rate sarcasm and reproach, per' ad s his discourses, but he is too independ ent to catch the admiration of those purse-proud aristocrats, who despise every thing like repub lican simplicity, and pin theii faith on .the snr. pliceof the members of an nristocratical church militant. One night the last week, he was re quested to preach mono of the tabernacles situ ated at the north end of the town, and of course expected to be placed in a part, of the house, whero he could edify the multitude; but the mumbers of the church, supposed that but few would attend his ministrations, placed hint in tho vestry, or ns Lorenzo called the place, “the cellar kitchen." Indigpint, that, an insult should be given him, and finding that by reason of the immensity ofthe crowd, he could hot have.. hearing, he opened one of tho windows, and thrusting his head in, addressed the multi- tiiide trom without, in a strain of invective and ■Brcasm, which made the turbulent stare and ttie profligate tremble. His addtess was very concise and severe, mid did not afford many compliments'to the ladies, many of whom re tired sadly chagrined and disappointed. Lorenzo, has often varied his creed, nnd at this moment, advocates tho doctrine of univer sal religion.; and after a series of years in tlie service of 'lie pulpit, arrived at the couclusion, that natural religion is the only correct doctrine.

A deputation of tlie Choctaws and -Chickaraws accompanied them, who have also returned.

When they ar rived at tlie Agency ofthe Cieeks, they met their ofd acquaintance Chilly McIntosh, with whom they hud formerly been at variance.— They were glad to st/e each other: and the diffeiences which existed’between them were reconciled by Col, Brcarley nnd Mr. Blake.
