The sea ran so high that in their efforts all their boats except one, which held but five'persons at a time, were swamped. In this boat 76 of the passengers and crewj were saved, the tempest meanwhile increasing in fury. The Oilando had just got clear of the St. George when the latler sunk. Fifteen persons were lost in going from ship to phip, eight were suf focaled between leck, and twenty-eight were, burned or sunk with the Si.

The following is the Bill introduced into the New York Assembly by Mr.

D. B. Taylor, democrat, from New York City, to revive the law recognizing slave property in transitu through the State of New York: An Act to modify the existing law in relatitn to the bringing into and conveying through any part of this State persons held to service in any other State. I The people of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assembly, do enact as follows Sec. 1.

Any person, not being an inhabitant of this State, who shall be traveling to or from, or passing through this State, may bring with him any person lawfullv held bv him in slavery and may i take such person with him from this State: but the person so held in slavery shall not reside, or contin-! ue in this State more than thirty days and if such 'residence be continued beyond that time, such per-I son shall be free. This bill is an exact transcript of the act "repealed under the auspices of the Seward dynasty except I that the nine months' restriction is reduced to thirty days. This is the bill, (says the Albany Argus.) I which has been greeted with a universal howl from the abolition press in and out of the State. That I they and the 'higher-law' partizans generally, will (continue their lamentations and their opposition is to be expected. But we mistake the high tone of the Legislature very much if it is to bo deterred by denunciations and obloquy irom such quarters, trom the discharge of its duty to the.

State and to the spirit of the constitutional guaranties and compromi ses In introducing the bill Mr. Taylor made brief but comprehensive and pointed remarks. He said that he had no objection to its reference to the iudiciary committee, if that was the desire of the House or of any one portion of it though it was due to the importance of the bill itself to add that it was a copy verbatim (except as to the tirric of residence, which was formerly nine months, and which was reduced by this bill to thirty days) of an act in the Revised Statutes of 1830, which was copied from a law of 1817. The same provision is contained in the Revised Law of 1801, and was ro-enacted in 1813. It was therefore in" force for forty years under Governors Geo.

Clinton, Morgan Lewis, Dan'l D. Tompkins, De Witt Clinton, Joseph C. Yates, Martin Van Buren. Enos D. Thrcop, and William L.

Marcy, and was repealed in 1841, under William 11. Seward. When the law passed the Senate in 1817, Martin Van Buren was a member of that body, and voted for it. He had no objection, he repeated, to sending the bill to the judiciary committee, trusting that that committee would give it their prompt attention, and report it back to this House, in order that members might have an early opportunity to examine it and to pass upon it by a vote. The bill was referred to the judiciary committee.

Counterfeits. By the. annexed extract, which we copy from tho Charlotte, N. Whig, it will be seen that counterfeit bills on! the bank of the State of North Carolina, are afloat; Counterfeits. The Sheriff of this county showed lus a few days since, several four dollar counterieit bills on the rank ct the State ot Iorth Carolina, well calculated to deceive a careless observer, and from the fact that they appear to be old and consid erably worn.

Some ot themi are made payable at Morganton, and others at Charlotte. The signatures and filling up of all of thein aro very perfect, but appear to have been engraved, except the dates and numDers, some oi wnicn are written in oiue ins, a certain proof that they are counterfeit, as we are in formed that the bank never uses blue ink in dating the genuine. The paper upon which these counter feits are executed -is pale, coarse and thick, and the engraving, generally, is coarse and irregular. The shading of these letters is dark, coarse and heavy. P.

S. Just as we were concluding the above de scription', we were shown another counterfeit of the same denomination, on the same Bank, new, nnd bad in every particular. Our community is full of all sorts, sizes and shades. Our sheriff declares that he never will receive another four dollar bill on the Bank of the State of North Carolina. Let every orfe keep a look out.

Sardines. Paris correspondent of the Washington the following particulars of the sardine lie gi fishery How many sardines do you suppose have been taken this year upon thecoast of Brittany, two hunr-dred miles long? Five hundred and "seventy-six millions. Half of them are to be preserved and sold fresh, and half are to be put down in oil. One hundred and sixty vessels, manned by five thousand five hundred sailors and fishermen, are engaged in the trade. Tho preparation, transport, and sale of the fish, employ ten thousand Persons.

Nine thousand of these are occupied all winter in the making and mending of nets. The fishing lasts two hundred days, and yields a net profit to all concerned of three" millions of francs. The sardines disappear in November and return in April. Where they go during these four months, why they go, or what they do while gone, has never been discovered. The fishermen say that the same individuals never come twice 'and that every successive arrival is composed of fish much smaller than those that and that they appear to' be their young.

At any rate they count implicitly on their appearance and no sardine was ever yet known to break an engagement thus tacitly entered into." r.ntliA Schnrlkill. and heavy ice fields are drifting up and down the Deleware. In-tWsUhe temperature is kept too high with stoves and heaters, vhile outside, the weather is like Greenland; or rather has been, for to-day it is moderated. There can be no doubt but that the people of the Northern Cities injure themselves rery much by having their rooms so hot and close. Going from the sharp, frosty air outside, into the' close, heated atmosphere in any of the Departments at Washington, always made my head" swim and the same effect was produced by the opposite transition on coming out.

I have half a notion that this letter will not get homo much before I do myself; but that will make little difference. It may be all for thejbest, so I can have a chance to read the proof where the writing is so bad. At any rate, it must take its chance, until next time, and carry my compliments editorial, to all the readers of the "Journal" men, women and little boys. FULTON. Fir.

Washington, Jan. 20ih. The Senate devoted another hour in secret session to-day to the nomination of Mr. Badger. Senator Fitzpatrick arrived in the Southern boat this afternoon, and was immediately sworn in, but Mr.

Dawson arrived also, and the vote was not changed. The nomination was again laid over. Washington Irving was in the Senate Chamber today and received marked attention. The decission of the Speaker of the House to-day, that under the rules the. French Spoliation Bill belongs to the ninth class of business, indicates that it will not be reached during this session of Congress.

The Houston Invessigating Committee are inquiring into the various charges of corruption in the erection of the Capitol extension. Rather startling disclosures are anticipated.

F. H. Latrobe, of Baltimore, an accomplished laAvyer, and a gentleman of fine taste and enlarged public spirit, was elected President to succeed Henry Clay. The annual report shows that six vessels with emigrants have been sent to Liberia, viz Two from New Orleans, with 180; two from Norfolk, with 297; oneirom New York, with 37; and one from Wilmington, N. with 148.

In a vefwel from Bal timore, sent by the Maryland Colonization Society, there were sent two emigrants, making in all GG6, of whom 402 were born' free, 235 were emancipated, and 38 purchased themselves, or were purchased by their fri.nds. The whole number sent by the society to Liberia from its organization to the present time, is 73457, and tho whole amount of money expended upon it by the is 41. Tho report also speaks of appropriations made by the different States to aid in colonizing their own free colored people, and entertains strong hopes that the Legislature of Virginia will, at the present session, remove the restriction from her large appropriation so as to make it available to meet the expenses pf all who emigrate from the Stato. Richmond Enquirer. Billy Bowlegs Deposed.

The Charleston Standard says a letter from one of the ofne-rs of the army, in Florida, mentions that by a council of cheiff, which recently assembled at one of their settlements, Billy Bowlegs had been formally deposed from his cheif-tainship, on account of having consented while in Washington, to emigrate with the remnant I of the tribe now in Florida. The orator of the tribe has been chosen to 11 his place. The success of the Erricsonair ship has suggested the question as to what will be the effect of the general adoption of the new motor for all the purposes to which steam are now employed on the consumption of coal. A correspondent df the Philadelphia Ledger takes a right view of the question, we think, when ho says that the undoubted effect would be that instead of supplying a hundred steamers, as now, with say one thousand tons of coal a we should be called upon to furnish five thousand marine vessels, everything that floats, in fact, with five thousand tons a day. Besides, the land would be covered with caloric engines.

The cheapened power would banih hand-toil and horse drudgery, and be applied to thousands of purposes which can now be scarcely imagined; As a general principle, we may rely on the fact that the greater efficient service can be produced by a ton of coal, the more tons will be required; or, in other words, the cheaper a thing is made, the more it will be used.

Our Wilmington committee, consisting of Gen. MeRaeYWm. C.Bcttencourt, D. K. McRae, S.

J. renontR. Strange, and myself, met the Hoase committee on commerce this morning in relation to the matter in further appropriation for onr Bars. Trofessor Bache is absent, but Major Sterens, member of the commission, Tery kindly went before the committee with us, and gare the unanimous opinion of the commission in faror of the work. I think-indeed I hare little doubt but that his exposition will hare great weight; and if we do get the assistance we want, much will be due to Profewor Bache, Major Sterens, and the other gentlemen of the commission appointed to make a sarrej of our harbor.

Mr. Ashe, of course, has used all his influence in our faror; and I would here observe that that influence is by no means small, for few men are more popular or more respected in this City. Mr. Tenable also went before the committee with bs. I feel confident that our whole delegation will go warmly for the work.

The resolutions of the Legislature of North Carolina are of gTeat importance to us. At the close of the interview, Mr. Seymour of New York, the chairman of the Committee, stated that it was little doubtful -whether any Hirer and Harbor Bill would be reported at this session but that in case there should be one, the claims Wilmington would be farorably considered, and the representations of the delegation hare their due influence." From all I can learn, it seems more than likely that a bill trill be reported and perhaps we may pet some fifty or sixty thousand dollars; at any rate I hope so, but only hope, for I am not of the sanguine kind hat take things for granted. The Senate had an executive session on MonJay, Mr. Badeer was not confirmed the.

The old General made a speech of considerable length in support of them, and one which struck nMurj able- Mr. Cutler of South Carolina made a short speech in reply, and Hale of N. Hampshire quite a long one in his usual manner, adroit, amusing and sectional. It was expected that Soulc would have spoken, and the galleries were crowded with ladies, four of whom were very good-looking, nnd the rest not so by any means.

The' Cabinet makes little progress, and the city is full of office-hunters, one of I am not, for which I am duly thankful may the Lord preserve me from ever beinz- Cold and snowing. PiiiLADF.iinA, Jax. 21st, 1853. About the worst plan -In the world to find out news, is to go from home for that purpose. The real observatory, is the tripod editorial to which the mails from all quarters waft whatever is new it remarkable, tragical, comical ormelodramatical jo must, therefore, look for nothing in the line of early intelligence from me.

I have, however, ccn something worth noting imprimis The cg-tT Kilt jxxr excellence a man bo ferociously, cantankerously and outrageously ugly, that Holdcn, Burr, and all others who had heretofore been reckoned some in such a crowd, must incontinently knock under, completely exflunktified, used up and snowed under. Oh, that man vas ugly so ugly that the President of the Wilmington and Raleigh Railroad fairly stopped and looked at him his mouth was a triangle his nose wasn't at all and his eyes looked like half-boiled onions, bound with red tape, and placed one about a quarter of an inch above the other. I used to like Monuments I gave five dollars to the Washington Monument but I'm done with thera forever perfectly sick of them never again want to seo anything above two-stories in height. Yesterday I stopped over in Baltimore for a few, hours to look at the City; and Daniel Dickson, Esq- and this deponent walked up to tbe Monument to Washington there erected. An old man give us a little lantern, and told us to go on our way rejoicing, up the spiral stair-case in the inside.

Our friend marched up manfully until the-light began to give out whereupon he "gin out" also; thinking perhaps that it was not safe for Daniel to go a second time into the lion's den, so, like Alexander Selkirk; I had to "finish my journey which I did with much fear and enabling, and Sundry forebodings of being turned into a monument jnyself-by getting slack in that dark tunnel, and so remaining until some stormy night when my skull and shitf bones would come tumbling down "to fright the souls of timorous Wouldn't that be pathetic 1 I think it would. Others might view the matter in a more favorable light. Now the monument at Baltimore is not much over a hundred feet, I should not think, and if it is such work to go up, bow can the committee at Washington talk about carrying the National Monument up six hundred or nearly so 1 Who could get to the top of it 1 Nobody Nobody at all." It is not christian. It is an -imitation of the tower of Babel, and Congress typefics the confusion of tongues. Baltimore Is a very considerable village, especially when seen from a monumental poiat of view, and is growing rapidly, but the truth must be told, that, compared with New York it sinks away down in the business scale, particularly in the matter of ship-piog.

as indeed so does this city, although not so far still, Baltimore is coming up, and I see no reason why the Southern trade should not go there much more than it does. About six o'clock last evening a scene might have been witnessed at Barn urn's Hotel, forcibly recalling the last Presidential canvass, Gen. Scott was standing in the hall giving some directions about his baggage, to an Irish porter, with the very -'richest and most melodious brogue." that ever saluted mortal ears, and strange to say, the old General did not seem to love it half so much as he did in October last. However, let there be peace to bis political ashes. Io other and more fitting aroealions he deserves well of bis country, and can still serve her with honor and advantage.
