My absence from your columns will be pardoned, I am sure, when I inform you that 1 have been for the last fortnight on a visit to sweet Florida. Who that has sojourned in Florida during the winter season, will not readily acknowledge her soft and voluptuous climate, her azure skies, and brilliant night scenes by moonlight! There is a witching influence in the climate of this peninsula re gion, which creeps over the system, and im perceptibly steals away the senses from the dull, sober realities of a busied, speculating life, to the purer enjoyment of mental and the luxurious feastings on a sciree mtiis cale in the grand saloon of nature. It is pleasant to descend from our rough and chil ling atmosphere, into that of spring-like mild ness, and invigorating temperature—from a sky of clouds and storms to one of serenity and brightness—from a cold, bleak wind whistling from the north, to feel the almost inspiring influence of the balmy breath of the South. It is delightful to turn the eye from looking at the cold face of the sun as he tra vels through mountains of snow and worlds of ice, to gaze on his mild but resplendent brightness, as he rolls up from his bed in the great ocean, and sailing through the soft and j cloudless heaven of the South, smiles sweetly I as he shines. It is entrancing to exchange a cold, cheerless, chilly night in the highlands of Georgia, fora pure, beautiful Florida evening, when the moon, walking in her brightness, looks placid as the face of sleeping innocence* and the stars which glitter on the robe of night, mild as the eye of beauty looking! through a soul of love: Such a scene invo luntarily draws from the heart an exclamation in the language of Shelley: Palace-roof of clout! less night! Paradise of golden light 1” Already has the spirit of song been poured out upon the beauties of Florida, and the resemblance of her climate to that of the Ha vana, and its beneficial effects on worn and shattered constitutions, told in story,and given extensively to the world. St. Augustine has been, no doubt with great justice, commended to the invalid as a point et which he might regain his health under the influence of a mild winter; and the delights of a summer residence in Pensacola have been rehearsed in poetry and woven into song. Did I for a moment believe, that in anv tnannner the duly devolved upon me of bringing into favorable notice those points on the Florida coast which have hitherto been passed over, save only as places of “ traffic and trade,” 1 should talu- rally shrink from the task; but as a “ free will offering,” to that which has “many a time and oft” conduced to my mental enjoy ment, and to those who have surrounded me with such kindnesses in the ordinary inter course of human life as cause its rapid stream to llow smooth and unruffled, it is with un mingled pleasure that 1 here introduce to the favorable consideration of travellers, seekers of pleasure and business men, St. Joseph and A pal achicola ; the former presenting all that j is delightful and luxurious as a residence on ihe margin of the sea ; while the latter stands forth a powerful witness in favor of art, sus tained by industry and perseverance. No thing can be more delightful than a visit to either of these places in the Winter or Spring season, especially to an up countryman. The breeze of ocean —the unfurled banner of those winged travellers of the great sea, whose constant burthens are the rich treasures of the world —Ihe sounding billows, whose music equally delights and astounds the car, these all awaken the dormancy of the heart, and pour the healthful balm of Spring into the decaying channels of life. Florida is prover- bial for her hospitality and attention to stran gers; and the taste displayed by those who have fixed their residence at either of the young cities to which I have made reference, adds greatly to the interest and pleasure of those who are merely visitors. St. Joseph enjoys an enviable reputation for a good heart and most fascinating airs, manners, and ah the round of et ceteras, which are requisite to render a place, a people, or an individual, prepossessing and truly engaging; and good luck to the sweet ladies, and the noble sons of noble sires, who dwell on the borders of the sea, they have more than deserved that re putation from strangers who have visited their infant town. Apalachicola has acknow ledged herself somewhat behind her rival sis ter in the civilities and attentions of more hospitable and refined life, hut has found her excuse in the press of business, and the hustle of anew town starting into life and prosperity 1 as by magic; but the hand of improvement has left its polish, as well as evident traces of its power, and the latter city is beautifully contesting with the former, the palm of civil ity, generous hospitality, and all the refine ments of social life. Wearied with the dull monotony of a country residence, I made a tiip to the sea coast! A passage down the Chattahoochee ‘ is a brief and rapid one; the powerful cur rent of the river, together with a “full head of steam,” drive our light-draught boats through the element at a Hying pace, and one has scarcely time to view the skirting country, as we shoot away toward the great sea. 1 may he pardoned for the confession that I fell in love with the sea. How beautiful, how sub iime, how wonderful the sea! Byron loved the sea ; and never did his muse sirg so sweetly, or breathe inspiration so pure, as when sporting on the blue wave. Shelley, the young, the fervent, the intellectual poet, had a passion lor the sea, and alas, it proved in his case, “ the ruling passion strong in death!” It is impossible to describe the de lightful, the imposing, the overwhelming sen sation produced on the mind ol one accus fomed only to the unmusical scenes ,of an interior country, when he first plants his foot upon the ocean shore! The almost deli cious sensation, created by the amalgama tion of delight and wonder, fills his heart, and as the waves dash and roar around him, and the thousands of voices echo from the ; hollow of the great deep, he feels as though he were holding converse with worlds and their myriads of inhabitants! Oh! give me but to live on the ocean side, where I may talk with the sea when it rages, and sleep by the murmur of its peaceful billow, and I could lose tl:e high excitement of ambition in the dream of forgetfulness, and turn a deaf ear to the voice of dame Fortune, as she urges on her votaries towards the goal of wealth and fame. Thus did I muse, when first I stood beside a world of waters: and thus again could I have exclaimed, when in the bay of Apalachicola, riding in the beau tiful oar boat called the Hcnetia, which “ walked the water like a thing of life,” under the vigorous pull of a few boon companions, who, throwing aside the costume of the office and the compting room, appeared habited in that of “ Jack Tar” himself, and plied the oar with a skill and dexterity of which Jack might have boasted at the table of his landla dy, or at his own independent mess-board.— These all are intelectual treats; but to the Epicure, whose {lightest gratification lies in the pampering of his appetite, whose mouth waters, and involuntarily moves, opens, and expands at the sight of a fine sheep-head just caught; or on beholding a dish of spicy, fla vorous chowder; or an oyster from the bay of St. Andrew, alive, and ready to kick its way down his greedy, rapacious throat, mau gre its enormous size ; to such an one, so un intellectual, so anti-poetical, so “horrid vul gar,” Apalachicola and St. Joseph hold out j most seducing invitations to pay them a visit. Get ye down then to the salt waters, ye lands men who glory in good eating, and at St. Joseph ‘ nine host’ of the Mansion House, I will present you, in his own proper and portly [ person, the best passible evidence of the ad vantages of good eating, and will feast you sumptuously on oysters from the salt sea, and fresh salmon from the Clyde, or trout smother ed indrawn buiter, and red fish cooked in “ old Port;” and at Apalachicola, my little short friend, who once clothed the naked, and now feeds the hungry, will ply you with fish until you will be driven upon your ingenuity for the invention of a machine with which to clear away the bones, besides doing you the almost super-human kindness to supply you with an extra quantity of brains, which |ast favor, believe me, will be of unspeaka ble advantage, and will merit your warm est thanks. CO M M E RCIAL. From Ihe N. Y. Evening Herald. MONEY MARKET. Thursday, March 1. 6 P. M. The elements are in motion. We verily believe that the bottom has been reached— and that from this day henceforth, money matters and business will lake anew and fresh departure. The small note bill has be come alaw —the banks are in deep consulta tion—the spring business is in full career—the opening of the river must soon be at hand— and a general, though slow, reconstruction of the commercial edifice must ensue. On Wednesday evening the banks bad a meeting, and afler a long and interesting consultation, they nearly came to the resolu tion to publish a Manifesto, in a few days, calculated to allay excitement, and to give an encouraging aspect of their future move ments. At this meeting the queslion of immediate resumption was propounded and debated at length. Ft was conceded by all, that the hanks of New York, both in reference to the foreign and inland exchanges, could now re sume specie payments, and begin a gradual expansion, necessary to meet the wants of trade. The only obstacle in taking this step was the position in which they stand to the adjourned Bank Convention which is to meet here next month. In courtesy and honor, ihe New York banks feel themselves bound to take no slop towards resumption till lhat Convention shall have met, and decided, either one or the other, what policy they mav pursue. When it does meet, and when il shall begin its deliberations, no doubt a great difference of opinion will exist, and it is possi ble lhat it may adjourn without any final or decided action. But should it do so. the N. Y. hanks will find themselves released from all further ties, and will then lakp their meas ures with reference alone to their own posi tion. honor, and views. The U. S. Bank, and a lnrrre portion of the banking interest, throughout the country, are opposed to any resumption, from ihe be lief, very honestly entertained, that the meas ure will he unavailable without the favorable action of the General Government, either in the shape of anew Nalional Bank, or an or- j der to receive the public does in bank paper j at the Custom House. On this point our banks, and a large portion of the commercial interest, entertain decidedly different opinions, and these opinions our hanks may explain and illustrate in their manifesto now preparing for publication. On another highly important point of noli- j cv, our hanks have agreed. Under the nr- | derstanding that resumption will not be de layed longer than May, the hanks intend to : begin, from ibis monlh forward, to expand their issues, and to increase their loans. The Phenix Bank begun to-dav to pay its divi dends and to increase its loans. The pro cess will of course be slow, and only move pari pit'll with the indispensible wants of the spring trade, hut its effect, however mod erate, will soon he felt in the recovery of con fidence, spires, and good feeling in every de partment of business. From the Augusta Constitutionalist. LIVERPOOL, Jan. 5. The proceedings in our cotton market since last Friday have been on a very limited scale. Buyers have evinced a lukewarmness which no change of circumstances seems adequate to account for. Our import last week was considered rather heavy, but has been during j the present week very light, and the stock in the ports at the close of the past year could produce no disappointment, as it nearly accor ded With previous calculations. The trans actions of late in yarns and goods have cer tainly been exceedingly circumscribed; but this is commonly the case at this season of the year, and inquiries, especialv for yarn, of, which tlie stock on hand is very moderate, | have been such as to give promises, ere long, iof extensive operations in these products.— However, we have a further reduction of ful ly 1 —ld per ib, to notice this week in the val ue of short stapled American descriptions, ma i king the fall in them, according to the sales made, in the last fortnight, l-2d per lb, and at this decline importers generally are willing ito meet the demand. Other descriptions, , though of dull sale have mostly gone to stea |dy rates, and in our quotations of which we find it scarcely necessary to make any altera | tion. Speculators have not been at al! djs ’ posed to purchase, nor have we had any de- I itittnd for exporters. Upland is the only description which has been much in request, and yet the sales have chiefly been at rates quite 1-1 J below what were previously current; and the few and small sales effected of Orleans and Ala bama. have been at a like depression. Sea Island has been neglected, and for which our quotations are therefore nominal. Brazil, Egyptian and East India have been little act ed upon, bat prices, notwithstanding, have been susceptible of no obvious decline. From the Ist ult. to the sth inst. inclusive, the sales altogether, are computed at 7,620 bags. The import in the same time amounts to 9235 bags. LIVERPOOL, Jan. 8. — Cotton. —The de mand for cotton on Saturday was fair, and the sales were 3000 bags, and the same quan tity was sold to-day at very steady prices. CITY HALL.

March 7. 5 4t ISAAC H. SMITH. FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD. RANAWAY from the subscriber, on the 25th February, at his plantation in Lowndes county, five miles from Benton, two negro fellows, viz : Mor ris and Jacob ; Morris is a feilow about 25 years of age, 6 feet high, or thereabout, slim in person, very knock-kneed, lisps and stammers in his speech, and speaks quick when spoken to. Jacob is a likely negro about the same height and age, but stouter made, weighs about 200 pounds, is deliberate and slow in speech, and has been recently badly wounded by a gun shot in Georgia, which he received in his right side and hand, but has recovered or nearly so. There is no doubt but they will attempt to make their way back to North Carolina, where I hought them in 1836. They will no doubt travel together, for they were raised together, and both bought of one man and at the same time. The above reward will be given for their apprehension and delivery to me, or 825 for their delivery in any jail so that I get them again. Feb. 28. 5 4t D. H. MIDDLETON. FENCING ACADEMY.
