An objection having been made to Colonel
MAGwooD's qualifying Senator for the
Parishes of ST. Philip and ST. Michael the
same was referred TO the committee on pri
vItgeS aud elections, to enquire whether or
not he was Director of the Branch Bank of
the United States--they reported that he was
aud recommended that he should he heard by
counsel at the Bar of the Senate; this was
warmly opposed, but eventually carried, aud
Colonel HEATH appearing in behalf of Colonel
MAGWOOD, made a very able speech before
the Senate. After considerable debate tie
question being called for was decided % TO |
that Colonel MAGwOOD was not entitled 10 a
seat in the Senate-yOu will therefore have TO
elect TWO Senators; the writs will he immetli-
aiely issued. The House have agreed BIZ Il
vote OF 81 Ia so, that MIR. SEABRooK's Tesig-
nation shonlG be rejected-this establishes
precedent that member cannot resign.
EatrGct Of a letter from KentuckyG,,, dated
FRANKFORT, NOV. 10.
The situation of things here is such
al this time, that where person has
ialerabie prospects al the eastward,
SHOULD not advise him 10 come out here,
be ause really think the times more dull
here iian with you. Such severe and
general distress was never knows before
IN this quarter. I'm my former letter
gave YOU some idea Of it, and il has
grown worse since. There is but very
li'le money in circulation, and not one
third OF that will pay the debts of the
people All confidence is DESTROYED IN
banks and individuals. Our legislature
meets III few days, when IL is expected
they Viii TINKER up some expedient for
relief probably oblige creditors TO take
real estate al 4Ihs lis appraised value in
payne of ieblS.-it is considered this is
the only thing that can he done 30 relieve
The fact is, We have been this side the
mountain too eX,ravagant-we owe more
money Tor foreign goods than there is in
the county, dn,i our real estate must 90
10 make up The deficiency" Bat. Tel.
