Mr. Bntler’a Funeral Discourse. We copy from the Republic, of yesterday, the following discoursoof the Rev. Mr. Butler, delivered over the remains of Mr. Calhoun, in the Senate chamber on Tuesday last: “I have said ye are gods, and nil of you are children of the Most High; but ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.”-Ps. Ixxxii, v. 6 and 7. One of the pninces is fallen ! A prince ins intellect; a prince in his sway over human heart and minds; a prince iu the wealth of his own generous affections, and in the rich revonues of admiring love poured into his heart; a prince in. the dignity of his demeanor. This prince lias fallen—fallen! And ye all, his friends and peers, illustrious statesmen, orators and wurriors, “I have suid ye are gods, and all of you aro children of the Most high; but ye shall die like men, and fall like this one of the princes.” The praises of the honored dead have been, here and elsewhere, fitly spoken. The beauti ful blended benignity, dignity, simplicity, and purity of the luisband, the father and the triond ; the integrity, bngacily and energy of the statesman ; the high wrought vigor, the compressed intenseness, the direct and rapid logic of the orator—all these have been vivid ly portrayed by those who illustrate what they describe. There seems to linger still around this hall echoes of the voico which have so faithfully sketched life, so happily discrim inated the powers, so affectionately eulogized the virtues of tho departed, that the Muse of history will note down the words as tho out line of her future lofty narrative,her nice analy sis, and her glowing pruise. But the echo of those eulogies dies away. All that was mortal of their honored object lies here, unconscious in the theatre of his glo ry. ‘‘Lord of tho lion heart and eugle eye," there he lies—that strong heart still; that bright eye dim ! Another voice claims your ear. The minister of God, standing over the dead, is sent to suy, ‘‘I said ye are gods, and all of you are the children of tho most High, but ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. ’ Ho is sent to remind you that there are those hero, not visible to the eye of sense who are greater than the greatest—even death and death’s lord and master! * Dentil is here. I see him stand over his pros trate victim, and grimly smile,and shake his un- stcad spear, und bid us all attend this day on him. He is king to-day, and leads us all cap tive in his train, to swell his triumph, nnd pro claim his power. And there is no visitant that can stand before the soul of man with such claims on his awed, intent, und teachable ut- tantion. When, as on a day and in a scene like this, he bolus us in his presence, and bids us hear him. who can dare disregard his man date.? Oh 1 there is no thought or fact, hav ing reference to this brief scene of things, how ever it come with a pert and tone of dignity aud power, which does not dwindle into mean- neasdnihe prosenceof that great fact,that great thought, which has entered into the Capitol to day-death ! To be made to see that, by a lawpeifectly inevitable and irresistible,soul and body are soon to separate ; that this busy scene of earth is to be suddenly and forever left; that this human soul is to break through the circle of warm, congenial, familiar, und kind red sympathies and associations, and to put off all alone into the silent dark—this k is the message to us of death. And as this message is spoken to a soul which is conscious of sin, which knows that it has not in itself resources for self-purifination and self-sustaining joy and peace, which realizes retribution as an eternal, moral law, it comes fraught with the unrest which causes it to be dismissed, or which lodges it in the soill—a visitant whos first coming is gloom, but whave continued preson.ee shall be glory. Then the spirit, peering with intense earnestness into the dark unknown, may in vain question earth of tho destiny of tho soul be. yond the grave, and lift to Heaven the passion ate invocation— “Answer me, burning stars of night, Where harh tho spirit gone, Which passed the reach ot mortal sight, And tho stars answer him, Wo roll E'en as a breeze hath flown 7 In pomp and power on high, liut of the never-dying soul Ask things that cannot dio 7" “Things that cannot dio!” God can only tell us of the spirit world. He assures us, by his son, that death is the child of sin. He tells us what is the power of this king of ter rors. He shows us “that in Adam all die.” He declares to us that, sinful by naiure and by practice, we are condemned to death ; that we are unfit for heaven ; that we are consigned to wo ; that the destiny of the soul which remains thus condemned and unchanged is far drearier and morn dreadful beyond than this side the grave. No wonder that men shrink from the thought of d“ath, for all his messages are wo- ful and appalling. But, thanks be to God! though death bo here, so also is death’s Lord and Master. “As in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.” That Saviour, Christ, assures us that all who repent and forsake their sins, who belietft in Him and live tp Hint, shall riso to a life gloriop and eternal with Him and His in Heaven He tells us that if we are His, those sharp-shnits which death rattles in our ear to-day shull but transfix, and but for a soa son, the garment of our moitality; and that the emancipated spirits of the righteous shall he borne on angel wings to that peaceful Paradise where they shull enjoy perpetual rest and felici ty. Then it need not bo a voice of gloom which announces to us to-day, “Ye shall dio as men, and fall as one of the princes;” for it tells us that the humblest of men may be made equal to the angels,apd thatearther’s princes may be come'liiings and priests unto God.” In tho presence of these simplest, yet grand est truths ; with these thoughts of death and the conqueror of death ; and, above all, with this splendid trophy of his power, proudly held up to our view by death to-day, I need utter to you no common-place on tho vanity of life, the inevitableness of death, and the solemnities of our afterbeing. Here, and now, on this theme the silent dead is preaching to you more im pressively than could the most eloquent of the •Jiving. You feel it now, in your inmost hearts, that that jtf/eat upper range of things with which you are connected as immortals; that ‘Mfnoral idalnisttation of God which ‘Btretches over the infinite of existence ; that magnifi cent system of ordered governments, to whose lower range we now belong; which consist of thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers which rise, “Orb o'er orb, and hight o'er hight," to the enthroned Supreme ; you feel that this, your high relation to the Infinite Bnd Eternal, makes poor and low tho most august nnd im posing scenes and dignities of earth, which flit, like shadows, through your three-score years and ten. Oh ! happy if the vivid sentiment of the hour shall become tho actuating conviction of your life! Hnppy if it take its placo in the centre of tho soul, and inform all the thoughts, the feelings, and the aims of life! Then shall this lower system of human things bo con sciously linked to,nnd become pBrt of and take glory from, that spiritual sphere which, all un seen, encloses us, whose actors and heroes aro angels and archangels, and all the compnny of Heaven. Then would that he permanently felt by all, which was here and in the other cham ber yesterdny so eloquently expressed, that “vain ore tho personal strifes and party contests in which you daily engage in view of tho great account which you may so soon be called on to render;”* nnd that “itio unbecoming and pre sumptuous in those who are the tenants of an hour in their earthly nbode, to wrestle and strug gle together with a violence which would nor be justifiable if it were yourperpetunl home.”t Then, as we saw to-day, tho sister States, by their representatives, linked hand and hand around the bier of ono in whose fame they all claim a share, we should feel that we saw you engaged in a sacrament of religious patriotism, whoso spontaneous unpremeditated oath,spring ing consentient from yout hearts, and rising un to Heaven, is—“Liberty and Union, now and forever, ono and inseparable.” But I must no longer detain you. May we all “So live, that when our summons comes to join The innumerable caravan that moves To that mysterious realm, when each shall take His chamber in the silent hnlls of death, We go nor like the quarry slave at night Scourged to ous dungeon, but sustained nnd soothed By an unfaltering tnjst, approach our grave Like one that wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.” *Mr. Winthrop's speech in the House of Represen tatives. tMr. Clay's speech in the Senate. Friday Morning, April 13, 1850. LARGEST CIRCULATION! The Daily Mooning News has now a circu lation larger than that of BOTH THE OTHER DAI LIES TOGETHER, and consequently is the best advertising neijium.

Rollins, arriv ed at our port on Wednesday night at 10 o’clock and delivered her mails and passengers ior this city, and proceeded on her voyage to Charleston. By this arrival wo are placed in possession of our correspondence, und com mercial circulars to the Clh inst., which will be found in our paper this morning. The regular ity with which this steamer performs her trips cannot he too highly commended, and the trav elling community can now rely with certainty on being accommodated. A trip to Huvanna nnd back now occupies so little time, and maybe performd with so lit tle sacrifice of comfort that we expect to see the travel greatly increased, until the excursion to that banutiful Island becomos quite as fash ionable as the tour of the notth has been. Central Rail Road. Trade with the Interior.—We are grat ified to learn that this road iB now, and has been for some time past, doing an immense business, especially in up freights. The merchants in the interior have made unusually heavy pur chases this season, and as we learn from the Macon Messenger, the warehouses in that city are literally crammed with goods, while there are not a sufficient number of wagon's offering to convey them into tho country. The amount of groceries and dry gpods sold in this city, to merchants from the interior, during the past season, as we have been told, lnrgely exceeds that of any previous year. Large quantities of goods have also been pur chased here for Alabama, by merchants who have hitherto gone to the northern cities for their supplies. Those who have made a trial of out market, have had no cause for regret, on tho contrary, many have expressed them selves well satisfied with a change which has been highly beneficial to their interests. An other season will develop the commercial advantages of Savannah. With our line of steamships plying regular ly between here and New York, and our river steamers, railroads nnd Plank Roads penetrat ing the interior, there can be no obstacle to check the growing commerce of our city, nnd our intelligent and enterprising mer chants will realize what they have so nobly striven for, the concentration of the trade of a rich and populous section of the country, and tho permanet prosperity of Snvonnah as the great commercial emporium and seaport of Georgia and tho adjoining interior States. Atheneum.—Notwithstanding the inclem ency of the weather last night, there was an excellent house, a large portion of the audi ence being composed of ladies. Miss. Cush man’s Mag Merriles was a most astonishing performance, and excited the intensest interest and most enthusiastic applause. She made the character of the Gipsey Queen wholly her own, stomping it with her genius and impart ing to to it an interest which no one but herself could have given it. To-night we are to have Bclwer’s play of The Lady of Lyons, w.th Miss Cushman as Pauline This is one of the most popular plays now on the boards, and rarely if ever will it be our good fortune te see the heroine of tho piece in such able hands.

In connection with our own locality we have merely to mention that about ten days ago, there were several cases of sickness at the Mil itary Hospital, which had a great deal of resem blance to the Asiatic Cholera. This created some alarm, which has sit.ee then subsided. These cases were confined to one saloon, and there were none in any other part of the Hos pital ; nor have any others manifested them selves in the city or neighborhood, although the Military Hospital is situated in an unhealthy district in tho suburbs, which is low and Swam py, and is tho receptacle of the offals of the city; yet, no cases of Cholera have occurred among any of the inhabitants, nor in any other part, either in public establishments or in pri vate dwellings. The Doctors connected with the Hospital, are divided in opinion as to whether the cases in question were of Asiatic Cholera or not. It seems most likely they were not. Tiuly yours, &c.
