Tlicso meetings, says ■ he Chronicle, were, we understand, on tin daily PAKtn, : ConvrnY pAPKU. ; F.imcr Doi.i,aiis. SPIVK lllll.t. Ans. SJLVlSf ST& SATURDAY MORNING FEB. By the ship Savannah, Captain Behkk, arrived yesterday morning, we have re ceived the New-l|frk Evening Feat, Advo cate, and Daily Advertiser, to the 2Uth inst. The weather off the coast had been very severe. A heavy gale from the N. E. to E. by S. accompanied by snow, was experi enced on the 22d and -23d. Sound Currency—We learn that the Di rectors of both the Planters’ Bank, and the Bank of the State of Georgia, have deter mined not to receive notes of the Bank of Darien, on deposit, from this day; and that after Thursday next, the bills of that Bunk will not be received by these institutions in payment of notes. It is said to be the intention of Mr. Web ster, to bring up the subject of a general bankrupt law, at the present session of Con gress. We doubt much, however, whether any thing can be effected on this question, at so late a period of the session, and when much business is yet to be disposed of. In the Senate of the United States, on Tuesday the 25th ult. Mr. Van Buren pre sented a memorial from the Chamber of Commerce in New York, praying that a department may be established connected with the custom-house, to attend to that portion of the business which rclatesto draw" backs, which was referred to the Secretary of the Treasury. The Committee of Naval affairs have •made a report to the House of Representa tives, on the subject of piracy, which is couched in bold and decided language against the Spanish authorities of Cuba and Porto Rico. “ The committee,” says the report, “ have “Bot overlooked the notorious fact, that the authorities of the West India Islands, parti cularly those of Cuba and Porto Rico, have afforded shelter and protection to the pi rates, and have given a character of bold ness to their enterprizes, which it may be impossible wholly to repress without resor ting to measures which may induce those au thorities to unite their meuns in earnest in the extirpation of those foes of the human race. Whatever may be the person'll feelings of aome of the local governors, they may per haps find it ditficult to restrain the cupidity by which a great portion of the community are so completely demoralized. In the isl and of Porto Rico a species of legalized plunder has been for several years tolerat ed, if not encouraged, by the chiefs of the Island which, if not so sanguinary as in ptlier cases, has in other respects, differed but little from ordinary piracy. It belongs ra ther to the duty of another committee to de- Tise means suitable to meet an exigency so singular, and at the same time, demanding the most prompt and vigurous measures.” The Presidency.—The correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, at Washington, Under date of the 24th ultimo, states that “ the long expected movement has at length been made;” that “ Mr. Clay has thrown kiiiisef into the scale of Mr. Adams; and it k confidently assorted, will carry with hiiii* third the number required.

Austrian funds had declined. Lord Siduiouth had resigned his seat in the British Cabinet. The king of Portugal has at. last, given a constitution to his subjects, which was to be published in December. Mr. TuasF.it, the Secretary of the Brit ish Embassy at. Constantinople, had been refused a formal introduction to the Grand Seignior, for the alleged reason that Lord Strangford had promised to return, and that his imperial majesty wanted no other iqinister in his capital. The London Courier compliments the French government on the course it.has pursued with that of St. Domingo, which the editor observes, “ will obtai for France an advantageous treaty of commerce, and the necessary capital to indemnify those colonists for their losses, who have taken refuge in France, and are now supported by the French Government.” The Evening Post, to which we are in debted for the foregoing, says that an arti cle, dated Madrid, Nov. 28th states, that at one time the evacuation of Spain, by the French troops, had been finally determined on ; and ns evidence of this, mentions the marching of two regiments from that capi tal, to be followed by others with their bag gage, hospitals, equipage, &c. ; and that similar movements were taking place in oth er parts of the Peninsula. All these ar rangements, however, it is added, had been suspended, in consequence of the arrival of a courier from France, with despatches, containing a new treaty, by wliit It it ap peared that 10,000 men, also the garrisons of Santona and Saragossa, the evacuation of which had been stipulated in a former treaty, were to remain in the country. The suspension of the march of the French troops is also mentioned in letters of the some date, received at Paris from Madrid ; and it would seem that this new arrange ment had been entered info at the special request of ^Ferdinand, who was afraid of confiding in the loyally of his subjects. The storms which hove ravaged nearly the whole o'Europe, have been felt with dreadful efleet in St. Petersburg. For the following intelligence by this ar rival we, are indebted to N •ai.VAdvocnte. We do not perceive any quotations of the Liverpool market. The King, it is said, is seriously indispos ed, his medical attendants have been fre quent in their visits, and some alarm was excited. He is not a very old man, but is a free liver. Advices from Madrid, state that every ef fort was making to got. recruits for South America, but as yet, they had failed, hav ing been unable to raise more than one Kentucky, Ohio, Missouri and Illinois, thus giving Mr. Adams ten states. Mr. Clay’s fri. nds, it is added, also claim in support of their movement Louisiana, Maryland and New-York, which three states will secure the election of Mr. Adams. This move ment, we are further informed, has excited deep feeling among the members of Con gress. and will continue to produce great ir ritation. The conduct of Mr.'Clay is sub jected to very severe criticism, and is con- aiderud as liable to great exception.” We are further told, that Mr. Clay, in the event of Mr. Adams’s success, is to be Secretary of State; and that the hopes of the friends of General Jackson, now rest on the developcment of the feelings of the west, which may induce the Representa tives from those states to act in conformity with the wishes of their constituents. pern —The Mexican Gazette of the 2d gn«l 3d D ji :ember, contuins official accounts fjom Twixillo of the 22d September, which state that from the nth of August to the 23d of the mouth, Tarma, Janja, Pampas, Huandavelica, Hunta ami iluamangn were successively reached and occupied by Boli- va’rs force, and that the enemy was flying beforr him. A letter from an officer in the Colombian navy to his brother in this country, dated at Porto Cavello on the 7th December, g: Ites that most of the Colombian ships are fold up; thaUhinga are nearly se»r.ud in tlfat country ; that Bolivar if victorious in .|»eru, andf/n war at an end* gallows with the others. From Stockholm we learn, that opinions were much divided, ns to the secret motives by which the King was influenced in re calling his sou, the Prince Oscar, from the Vice-Royalty of Norway. The reason as signed, was, that he wished his son, by a residence at Stockholm, to acquire a more profound knowledge of the a flairs of the two kingdoms of i>{unvay and Sweden. Later.—The packet ship Howard, Capt. Holdridge, from Havre, arrived at New- York on the v'otu ult. She furnishes Paris dates of the loth Decemuer, aud Loudon of the IItli. . A most distressing and melancholy event lias occurred at St. Petorshuigli, occasioned by the overflowing of the Neva, in a hurri cane. The bodi. s of seem thousand persons have been found in liie houses, and tight thousand persons are still missing. Near ly all the provisions of tne capital have boon destroyed and, ns the winter is at hand, it is to be feat oil that iiio population reinaiu- .ug will buffer the horrors of iiimitie. Tne same hurricane has gone over the nortnern coast of Jutland, passed Gotti n- butg and Stockholm, sweeping every thing lu i.s course. Tim whole regiment of im perial tarbuiiu r guards, men ami horse.*, have perished. A vessel of 10ft guns has completely disappeared ; and all the impe rial vessels in tue haroonr of Croiirdadt are lost. Bcrying-grounds have been washed away amldead oodles wereUoatingtliougii the street. Whole stores of c.ofluc and su gar have been destroyed : those articles have risen 50 per cent. Five leagues round the city of St. Peters- buigh, have all been destroyed. Within a tew years, it is n remarkable fact, that Rus sia has seen both her capitals destroyed, one by lire, the other by water. According to a private letter of the 23d ult, from Stockholm, the sumo hurricane which did ho much damage at St. Peters burg!!, raged with equal fury in the Swed ish capital os w« II as in Gottenhurgh, Vi- bourg, Jutland, eic. At Stockholm vessels were torn from their moorings, and driven against each other, the roofs of houses wore carried away, and the roads were so com pletely blocked up with trees torn up by the roots, that, travellers were under the neces sity of cuttingtheir way through with hatch ets. Twenty-live vessels near the bridge ofMunkbnm, upon the lake Alacler, were carried away with the bridge and much damaged. The storm commenced on the 13th in the evening, wind west, and continued so until the nioining of the Ifttli; the Neva, then raised nearly level with the streets. At half past 3, a sud ] n rise of tlio river took place which in a o w mmutes overflowed the ot roots of St. Petershurgii; the people who lived oil the lower floors ran up stairs for safety. The water came up to the top of the lamps, and the great. Bridge was carried away at onc« ; all the bridges are destroyed nr very much injured. At half past three in the afternoon, the wat^r began to fall, and at 0o’clock in the evening the streets were clear. All the cellars are filled, and doods destroyed, even those in the Ex change. The gale began upon the shores of Eng land and Ireland, an i, after having wrought in’.o fury tlio Northern Sea, and caused nu merous shipwrecks upon the Northern coast of Jutland, passed by Gottenburgand Stockholm, continually rising more, and! more from southwest to northwest. In tra versing Sweden, it swept away whole for ests ; lull it was naturally in tins Gulph of Finland that its ravages wouid he more se verely felt, its violence having kept up to that spot. In an instant, it. drove the wa ters of the Baltic into the. Gulph of Finland, wiiii h, being ft nninated by a point towards tlio east, must have experienced, particu larly towards that extremity, a sudden and iinm uiso elevation of its waters. This line i which appears Vo torm a double, curve, de termined by some lofty lands, presents upon map a devnlopeuient of from 370 to 400 guos, over which the hurriennee travel tion of Spain, by the French troops, is like ly to occasion revolts and bloodshed. At. Camoros Rioja, a band has been already formed, consisting of 260 men of infantry, and 70 cavalry, against whom have been 'ent the Royalist Volunteers of Soria, Tar- azonq, Tudelah, and several other towns.

Lord Coch rane had taken on himself the command of the military force, and disarmed all the Black Troops, and landed one hundred and fifty seamen, who were doinggarrison duty at the palace. A Portuguese ship and brig were lying there prizes to the sqnadron. In the Jamaica House of Assembly a bill has passed authorizing a contract of a loan of half a million sterling in Great Britain, on behalf of the island of Jamaica. A bill laying duties on all wince, brandy, &c. and a bil laying a duty on American goods, were also passed. ' The Slave Trade.— The Jamaica papers ofthe 13th December last, state that two brigs had carried into Martinique six hun dred African slaves. ' p CupUtin Rorert Stanwood, of Bruns wick, (Me.) has been convicted of defraud ing two Insurance Offices in Boeton, and sentenced to suffer fifteen days solitary im prisonment, and afterwards to be confined to hard labor in the state prison for five years.
