COLUMBIA. December ]

st.',z5 .,7s- COLUMBIA. December -.
The last week of the session was one of
considerable interest. There was great deal
Of discussion by members Of both Houses. up
on their favorite projects. and upon bills which
they were exceedingly anxious to have passed,
oridefeated. I heard much earnest, and not
GnGreqnently. verya'le debate. by leading men
ofthe Senate and House of Representatives.
In the House, almost every day, there was a
sort of gludiatoriut display between MIR. Hunt
and Memminger, Delegates from Charleston,
upon the various measures before the Legisla-
ture. Other gentlemen, some of whom were
possessed ofconsiderabIe ability, also entered
The lists and fongIit manufnly.
The Judiciary Bill Of Mr.. Hunt, and Mr..
NIemlninscr's Report upon reducing the Bank
ing capital Of the Bank of,l,e State, furnished
themes for much exciting discussion. No de-
cisive action was taken upon these matters.
Atleast. these great questions were not finally
settled The Brigade Encampment system,
after much debate, in The House. is abolished
The various Bills giving the election of Flee.
tors Of the President of the United States, to
the people was postponed. This question will
be brought up again. Several Bills of impor-
,ance have been rejected, bu, do no, know
that the Stu,e will suffer mnch in consequence
oGthis.
An amendment, of the Charter oftIe Town
Of Edgeield, has been obtained. The Council!
hereafter, will have the power Of granting H.
censes to Tavern keepers, and others, to retail
spiri,uous liquor.
The Legislature has refused 10 give mid 10
The different Rail Road projects in the State,
hy giving Rail Road companies, the use Of
any surplus capital which the State may now
possess.
On Friday night the 10th inst, both Houses
met, aud after ra,iyins ,llirly-niue (39) acts.
finally adjourned.
Nearly all the strangers have disappeared.
and the streets no longer present tina, appear.
ance of animation, which they did during the
session. Several companies of Volunteers for
Mexico have passed througlith the place. and two
are noa in Columbia. Two very fine De-.
guerreotype painters, Mr.. ZeaIy, and Mr. Ed
onard. 1 have visited their studios. and have
never seen any thing equal to their exhibitions.
There has also been Mesmcrizer here,
who has been astonishing every body with his
wonderful experiments In little time, all
these too, will disappear, and the citizens of
this place will be left to themselves. Excuse
this rambling epistle, 1 can say no more. us the
mail will soon close. ,i.4

LOSS OF THE CHARLESTON MAIL.
An extra from the office of The Whining
ton Chronicle, dated Friday. December
18Th, IL o'clock, A. NJ. conveys the fol-
lowing intelligence ofthe loss of :he whole
of the Mail made up at Charleston. on
"Wednesday last.
"The steamer Gladiator, Capt. Smith,
which left here yesterday for Charleston,
but without proceeding any farther than
across the main has. haf just returned
with the steamer Vanderbilt in tow
From Capt. Potter, of The Vanderbilt. We
learn The following particulars.
"The Y. came out of Charleston al her
usual hour on "Wednesday, about 3 p.
M. At 10, off Georgetown, the wind
in which had been blowing for some
time heavy gusts, set into furious gale
from the East. accompanied with some
rain. Al about II o'clock he steamer was
thrown upon her beam ends. After a
while she righted, not having been essen
TALLY damaged. At2 on Thursday morn.
ing she was again thrown OIL her beam
ends, her rudder much crippled, both
wheel houses nearly demolished, The Mail
apartment broken open, aud all the Mails
from the South taken in at Charleston,
together with the Charleston NJ all, swept
into The ocean. The main mast was cut
away-lhe steamer righIed again in short
time, and not having had her machinery
injured, proceeded on her way. the wind
continuing to blow tremendously as il did,
until about IL o'clock on Thursday.
BY great skill and judgment, Capt.
Potter worked the Steamer along for forty
miles, brought her up 10 the main bar.
thence she was lowed 10 town by The
Gladiator. The passengers who were on
board bestow the very highest encnmiums
on the Vanderbilt. ms also on The mauage;-
men, Of Captain Potter, the officers and
crew, in the awful conflict with the ele-
menis."
Judge Butler, U. S. Senator from South
Carolina. was passenger Oh BOARD the

their advice as to the action, which in

In The early periods Of the Government,
the opinion and advice of the Senate were
often taken in advance upon important
questions of our foreign policy. Gene.
raj Washington repeatedly consulted the
senate and asked their previous advice, to
which he always CONFIRMED his action

great importance. be properly revived

of tho war-naking power, and it may be

may involve in It's decision the issue of
peace or war. On the present occasion

We arrived at New Orleans at
about s O'Clock last evening. an
chored for half an hour in front OF
the city while the Colonies went
ashore and reported themselves, then
went down to the battle ground 8
miles below the city, slept on the
boat, and early this morning were
landed, and pitched our tcrts. Health
of the men never better and all in
good spirits.
About ten this morning the Han
nibal arrived, bringing the remain
ing companies Of Col. IIardin's re-
giment. The boys speak in glowing
terms of their trip, and appear to
have enjoyed it. | am sorry to say
that FIVE men were lost out of these
companies, three from Capt. Dick
ey's and two out of Richardson's.
They had got ashore about 50 miles
below Memphis, where the boat
stopped to wood, and did not get
back until the boat had pushed off,
when the Capt. would not turn back
for them. They were privates At
wood, Webb, and Hewlett, none
from Ottawa.
1t is understood that we are to
leave this place in the morning for
