Agreed to. The bill to release John Liverraan of the ■ county of Richmond from the Penitent ary on j and after the oth. of February, 1819, came up 1 as the special order of the day: and after a short j speech from Mr. Shockley, in opposition to it, the bill was put upon its third reading and passed —years 77, nays 30. The call of the counties having been gone through, bills for a third reading came up re gularly, when Mr. Jackson of Walton, moved that the four bills which he hud the honor to introduce, contemplating a change of the j Constitution so far as to give the election of Judges of the Supreme Court and the Supc- | rior Court, of Solicitors, &c., to the people, be referred to a select committee. Agreed to. Nothing of importance done in the Senate to-day. The time was almost entirely spent 1 in quarrelling over some resolutions in refer- j cuce to the Wilmot Proviso. I Saturday, Nov. 27, 1317. Hear Sir ; The Senate have had under con sideration to-day the report from the Commit tee on the state of the Republic. This report is upon the subject of the Wilmot Proviso. I am net authorized to say what position the Committee have taken, as I have not seen their report. I am informed, however, that to the Democracy at least, it is objectionable, inas much as it sets forth declarations which they as a party, arc not, and cannot be satisfied to endorse. The Preamble, I understand, de clares that they, the Committee, will abstain from any utterance at this time, on the Wil mot Proviso, as connected with the acquisition, of territory, for the reason that they may not all agree. Mr. Dunagan endeavored to-day to j amend the report by -striking out the above ! clause, and declaring the war to have been | commenced by the act of the Republic of ' Mexico, and as such, that our Government is i not responsible for its consequences, and ought ; to prosecute the war with the utmost vigor , until Mexico shall agree to pay all the de- 1 mauds due the United States on account of spoliations upon to our citizens, as well as in- I d enmity for the expenses incurred by this | Government in the prosecution of this war, , nnd if Mexico be unable to do so in money, i the United States should insist upon her ced- j ing territory sufficient to satisfy so just uud j reasonable a demand. The amendment of Mr. D. called forth con siderable argument, in which Mr. Foreman, Mr. Chastain, Mr. Glenn, Mr. Lawton, Mr. Williamson and Mr. Terrell, participated. Mr. Foreman is a sound sense kind of a man, has Very proper ideas upon this subject, and docs not*fear to give them utterance. His style is rather boisterous than otherwise, and while he i was speaking this evening, I heard a very j good joke passed off at his expense. In one of the rooms immediately under the Senate! chamber, about three feet square of the over- i head plastering tumbled down, and it was said | that Foreman (who stood while speaking al most directly over the spot from which the plastering fell,) made so much fuss and stamp ed go hard,’that he had jolted the plastering from otf the wall. Mr. Chastain delivered a plain, practical and ; argumentative speech. He supported the | amendment, and assumed the position that | the war was brought on by the act of Mexico 1 that the President in ordering the march of 1 the army from Corpus Christi to the liio j Grande, had only done what he was constitu tionally required to do, and that if he had not done so, the party which now abused him for doing what he did, would still have abused him. Mr. C. is a gentleman of fine sense, a good legislator,and a mild and pleasant speaker. ‘ The other speakers I had not the pleasure of hearing. They all failed to settle the dis pute about the amendment, and the Senate ad journed until 10 o'clock Monday morning, without taking any action upon the subject. Yours, &c., P. Death of Mbs. Place. — We were shocked yesterday morning by the announcement of the death of Mrs. Place—the Josephine Clifton of other days. She had been indisposed for a week or more, but so little apprehension was entertained for her safety that her death pro duced a sensation like that of the recital of some sudden and fatal casualty. She died yesterday morning, about 8 o’clock, of a vio lent hemorrhage, which snatched her away be fore those about her person could com prehend that danger menaced her. Thus has perished, in the high noon of life, a lady whose morning was a succession of profession al triumphs. Her noble figure commanded an admiration which her talents fixed. The career of no theatrical person has been less chequered bythe vacillation of public taste. — She shone forth a star at the beginning, and though she seldom performed of late, her loss is felt as the dimming of one. Neither her per sonal nor prefessional superiority had tasted of decay. It requires an effort to reconcile the mind with the solemn truth that the “magnifi cent Josephine” as she was styled, is—dust.— jVV O. Pic. 24 th ins*. We regret to announce the death of Capt. John Nock, well known to our readers as a popular and gentlemanly commander of several steamers on our river, and also in the Florida line for many years. Ilia earthly ties have been sundered in the prime of life. The dis ease which caused his death was hemorrhage of the lungs. The shipping in port will this day display their colors at half mast as a mark cf respect for his memory. —Savannah Georgian, VJth inst. _____ - _ _____ FD> On the 28th inst., by the Rev. Wm. T.

LATEST DATES FROM LIVSCKPOOI NoV. 4 LATEST DATES FROM HAVRE OtT. 31 | CHARLESTON, Nov.29.—• Cotton . — There was j , no change in the Upla d market on Saturday—the j demand trifling, and confined to a few bales for 1 ! immediate shipments. Sales about 100 bales at i ;G I a __ j Rice.— A fair demand at Friday’s prices, ranging | i from %2 13-16 a S3J. Corn and Flour remain unchanged. 3y Telegraph (Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun.) NEW YORK. Nov. 26, 6 p. m.—The flour mar ket. after yesterday’s holiday, has been dull and rather inactive. The sales amount to about 5,000 j bbls. at $6 for Oswego, and 6 1.2 a $6 1H for Gene ! see. Howard street is held at 6 37£ a$G it with i light sales. Wheat is wanted, but the market is too firm to ; suit buyers. There is not much enquiry for corn, and the j sales are light. The sales are to the extent of 10,000 bus. at for round yellow—being a de cline since Wednesday. There were sales of about 800 baits cotton at the d cent decline before noted. Seipwreck. —On Wednesday night last, the pack i et ship Alabama, from Liverpool, and bound to | Boston, was wrecked in Massachusetts bay. The ship and cargo are a total loss, though the crew and passengers were all saved. J. NEW ORLEANS, Nor. 24.— Cotton. —Arrived since the 19*h instant, 13,858 bales. Cleared in the same time 10,763 bales—making an addition to stock of 3095 bales, and leaving on hand, inclusive of all on ship-board not cleared on the 23d inst. a stock of 130,794 bales. We left the market on Friday last with a good enquiry, and still an upward tendency in prices, which had recovered fully § a | of a cent from the lowest point of depression, immediately after re ceipt of the telegraphic summary of the steamer Washington’s advices. Since then the demand has continued very active, and factors have been able to dispose of their lists readily, as fast as placed upon the market, while at th“ same time prices, though exhibiting a good deal of irregularity, have, particularly since Saturday, presented a constant upward tendency; and the closing rates of yester day, to which our quotations have been made to con form, show a further advance since our last report of $ a | of a cent per lb, or a recovery to within a fraction of the position which the market held on the receipt of the Caledonia’s advices, some ten davsjsince. The total sales of the past three days have been 14,5C0 bales —viz—4 800 on Saturday, including a list of about 1500 bales, closed late in the evening on Friday, and not before reported; 50C0 on Monday and 6000 yesterday, and the pur chases have been principally for England, the Con tinent and the North, the demand running almost exclusively upon the qualities ranging from Ordi nary to Middling Fair. The absence of transac tions in the higher grads leaves us without a basis for quotations applicable to them, and we are still under the necessity of representing them as nomi ral, though they are held at materially advanced rates.

AMONG the first thoughts suggested by the re markable discoveries in Galvanism were those regarding its relations to Medical Science.— CAN IT AID IN THE ALLEVIATION OF DISEASE! In replying to this question we an swer it unhesitatingly in the affirmative. Galvan ism has been found of the utmost advantage in many diseases, and the beneficial results with which its application has been followed in nume rous and most afflicting cases, are described as ap parently miraculous. When every means has been tried with ut success, and the last lingering ray of Hope has departed, the wretched sufferer has been restored through its influence to comparative health, comfort and happiness. The fact is pecu liarly applicable to those terrible and prevalent disorders called Nervous Complaints, in which me dicine is of so feeble avail—being often entirely useless —as in cases of confirmed Dyspepsia, Para lysis, Tic Doloreaux, Bronchitis, Chronic Rheuma tism. Ferrous Headache, and many' others. In all these disorders DR. CHRISTIE'S GALVANIC RINGS, BELTS, NECKLACES, BRACELETS, 6cc. are of immediate and certain benefit. (CTCadtion. —The great celebrity' and success of Dr. Christie’s Galvanic and Magnetic Curatives, has caused them to be counterfeited by unprinci pled persons. To protect fae public against de ception there is but ONE AUT II oTtl ZED AGENT appointed in each town or city-, from whom alone the Genuine article* can be procur ed.
