Floods IN the Cumberland, Tennessee, &c
At Nashville, by last account, the food had
not began to subside. The damage done is
very great Steamboats, were moored in
Broad and Water streets, and great distress
produced, which the citizens were relieving
TO the extent of their power. All habitable
stores and tenements were filled with families
rendered houseless by the flood. On the bot
toms of the Cumberland the damage was very
great. The corn for shipment was principal
" housed in pens on the bank of the river
This has been swept away, and what was un-
gathered was swept off on the Stock. Duck
river was exceedingly high and done great
damage The Tennessee river and tributa-
RES were very high, and had swept off great
quantities of corn, cotton, &c, On all the
bottoms of those streams the fences have been
carried away and much stock lost.

Mr.. Clay an England.-The famous :eso
lutions at the Lexington meeting, together
with the speech, which we received here by
electric telegraph, and transmitted to England
by the steamer Caledonia, arrived there on the
3Oth of November last, and created a good
deal of sensation among our friends on the
other side of the Atlantic.
The GOODNESS, contempt, dislike, and dlsap-
probation with which those resolutions, and
the speech of Mr.. Clay, were received on this
side of the Atlantic, need not disturb the
nerves of that distinguished statesman or his
particular friends any longer If they have
got few friends and supporters among the rus
ty republicans and dirty democrats of this
land, they are amply rewarded by the applause
and the appreciation of the English journalists,
and particularly of the London Times. That
great organ of public sentiment in London,
the London Times, has published those reso-
lutions and the speech of Mr.. Clay. and call
ed attention TO them, as great moral lesson.
before which they fall down and worship.
The remarks of the London Times are in
serted in another column, and they viii be
found interesting, and particularly gratifying
to all the friends of Mr.. Clay SO that therei is
some small drop of consolation in the late
English news, at any rate. If cotton and corn
are down, MIR. Clay is still right end upper.

In March and April we shall want large
quantity OF Corn and Flour, at fair prices
Exchange must fall very soon in N. York,
and Gold must go back to the States. Much
OF the Exchange that would have found buy
ers in ordinary times, has been sent out here
for collection and will go back in January and
February in specie. The unnatural export Of
gold to a creditor country cannot long contin.
ne. and if the reaction takes place early in
consequence of restored confidence in houses

Considerable interest has been excited BY
the publication OF the substance of letter
from the Duke of Wellington, concerning the
national defences of England. The following
is given as the contents of the letter:
:" His theme is the condition of this country
as regards invasion, and his statements may
make the stoutest heart tremble. He enters
into every detail-he names, from personal
observation. the most likely places for debark-
atlon-he proves the case with which it might
be eHected-he displays the nullity of our
means of defence.-We Lave no militia-very
few and very distant regulars-from 9 1000 to
10000 alone available at home-littIe artlle-
ry-no arms in store. He saws, with infinite
pathos, ] have now lived II years, and lived
in honor; God grant may not live to see the
consequences of refusing the plans of defence
which have in vain submitted to three min
ieters'
He afterwards proceeds 10 demand means
the most moderate, and with them he under
takes to secure u.s. His terms are $50, 600
militia, and some 10000 or $4,000 additional
soldiers of the line"
