On the night Of the 9th inst, mos,
terrific storm occurred near Jamestown,
Gulford county, N. C. The tract of the
wind was not more than two hundred wards
wide, but extended several miles north
and south. 1t was very destructive to
fences and CT imneys, but the most disas.
'rous effects were experienced in the over.
throw of houses. The following extract
OF letter gives an astonishing evidence
OF Provldential interference and preserva.

'It is supposed TO have been a kind nj
whirlwind, but unlike the wind the Prophc,

house was levclled to the earth. Mrs.
Burke was holding The window, and Eel,

shutter, and leaped through on he outside
and thus her life was saved-all the chi,

and the whole house in mass Of ruins
She commenced, with the aid Of the
neighbors, to search for her unwenned
child; 1t could not be found. After some

There has been an animated contest in
he Augusta district between Edward
Jackson (Whg) and Robert Craig, the late
Van Buren, member. We can hardly IN.
dulgo the hope tina, Mr. jackson has sue
cccded, but we shall not believe that Mr.
Craig is elected until the returns are pref.
ty decisive of the fact.
80 far therefore the intelligence is moi
unfavorablc. The Wings have certainly
reelected Messrs Wise. Mercer and Rob
erlson, and have substituted Wing for
Vanite in Norfolk district. There j. al.
so good reason to believe that Wings have
gained member in Mr. Roane's district
and that Mr. Taiaforro has been reelected

THE COLONIZATION SOCIETY
CALHOUN AND CLAY.

In debate that arose in the u. 5. Sem
ate las, week upon The memorial of the Col
niza,ion Society, Mr.. Calhoun said, that
a mysterious Providence had brought the
two races Of men together into this Coun-
try from different parts of the earth, the
European 10 he the master and the African
10 be slave. This relationship could not he
overthrown. and every society founded on
the principle Of separating these relations,
scted on basis Of error.
Clay finely replied, admitting that the
bringing Of these different classes Of men
into this Country together, was among mys-
terles Of great and glorious but hScruti-
ble Providence; but al the same time ex-
pressed also his COW ction, that il was a.
noDg The dispensalions Of the same Prov;-
acnce, that through The agency OF The CO.
Imitation Society and kindred means, be-
nighted Africa wOuH become free; and
kndliug, as he proceeded, he drew as glow
irg picture ola future Africa,
"The seat Of Empire and of Arts"
happy, flourisling, and enlightened, as
ever the great and good Berkeley, in those
beautiful dreams now turned 10 prophecies,
OF his enthusiastic heart, had loretold Of his
beloved America all Of which would
spring from the acorn seed of this Society.
Already, he said, The light began to dawn,
and he was convinced it would continue to
spread until Africa was entirely enlighten-
ed.
Mr.. Buchanan moved for select COM
miuee, aquiesced generally in Mr.. Clay's
views, and said it would he impossible TO
con6ne such subject to the District Of Co.
iumbia-it was for the union Of the Word.
The feeling Of The body was, however,
100 strong gainSt i, -Walker, Preston,

The Erpunging Pen.-A little aneclo!e
is related at Washington, which is worth
recording. The night the expunging res
ouiion was carried into effect in The Sem
ale, Mr.. Benton, the persevering mover Of
that measure, sent 10 the President the pen
used by The clerk of the Senate, in drawing
around and across The black lines, and wri-
ting the words expunged by order OF the
Senate. Ii was a new pen that was never
used for any other purpose. The President
received it with much pleasure, and inior-
med MIR b. that he should preserve il while
he lived, and al his death bequcalh it 10 Mr.
Benton as a mark of his regard. Boston
Adrorate.
We arc happy 10 see tina, the President cs-
Inmates Benton's services al ther foil WORTH
