4saouo.oua CaRF.sroDExT.)COLUSBJA. December 19.

The last week of the session was- one-ofconsiderable interest. There was a great dealof discussina by members of both Houses, upon their favorite projecti and upon bills whichthey were exceedingly anxious to have passed,oridcfeated. I heard much earnest, and not

uanfregnently, very alsedehate.by leading menofthe Senate and Honse of Representatives.In the House, almost every day, there was a

sort ofgladiatorial display between Ar. Huntand Msimminger, Delegates from Charleston,upon the various measures before the Legisla-ture. Other gentlemen, some of whom were

possessed ofconsiderable ability, also enteredthe rWt and foughi manuf!nlly.

The'Judiciary Bill of Dlr. ,Hunt, and Mr.Memiiiingcr's Report upon reducing the Bank-ingeapitalofhlse Bank of the State, furnishedthemes for much exciting discusssion. No de-cisiveaction was taken upon these matters.Atleast. these. great questions were notfinallysettled.: The Brigade Encampment system,after much debate, in the [louse. is abolished.The viriois Bills giving the election of Elec-tors of the President of the United States, tothe people was postponed. This question willbe brought up again. Several Bills of impor-tance have been rejected, but I do not know,that the State will suffer much in consequenceofjthis.-Aa amendment, of the Charter of the Town

of Edgefield, has been obtained. The Counci!hereafter, will have the power ofgranting li-censes to' Tavern keepers, and others, to retailspirituousliqor.The Legislature has- refused to give aid to

the dilerent Rtail Road projects in the State,by giving Rail. Road companies, the use ofany surplus capital which the State may now

possess.On Friday night the 10th inst., both Houses

met, and after ratifying thirty-nin (39) acts.

finally adjourned.Nearly sill the strangers have disappeared.

and the strcets no lunger present that appear-once ofanination, which they did during thesession. Several cosn panies of Volunteers forMexico have passed thronrh the place, and twoare sna in Columbia. Two very fine De-guerreotype painters, Mr. Zealy, and Mr. Edonard. I have visited their stulios. and havenever seen any thing eqpaal to their exhibitions.There has also been a Mesmerizer here,

who has been astonishing every body with hiswonderful experiments. In a little time, allthese too, will disappear, and the citizens ofthis place will be left to thenseles. Excn-ethis rambliing epistle, I can say no snore. as themail will soon close.

Reference having been made to it byCol.

Wednesday last."The steamer Gladiator. Capt. Smith,

which left here yesterday for Charleston,but without proceeding any farther thanacross the main has. lar just returnedwith the steamer Vanderbilt in low.-From Capt. Potter, of the Vanderbilt. welearn the following particulars."The V. came out of Charleston at her

usual hour on Wednesday, about 3 P.M. At 10, oiff'Georgetown, the windin which had been blowing for sometime heavy gusts, set into a furious galefrom the East. accompanied with somerain,' At about 11 o'clock the steamer wasthrown upon her beam ends. After awhile she righted, not having been essen-

At 2 on Thursday morn-ing she was again thrown on her beamends, her rudder much crippled, bothwheel houses nearly demolished, the Mailapartment broken open, and all the Mailsfrom the South taken in at Charleston,together with the Charleston Mail, sweptinto the ocean. The main most was cutaway-the steamer righted again in a shorttime, and not having had her machineryinjured, proceeded on her way, the windcontinuing to blow tremendously as it did,until about 12 o'clock on Thursday.

' By great skill and jtdgment, Capt.Potter worked the Steamer along forr fortyrriles. brought her up to the main bar,thence she was towed to town by theGladiator.
