EFFECT OF THE TARIFF ON SPECIE. Statements have lately been completed at the Treasury, showing the following results of he importation and exportation of coin and bullion during the year ending 30th September, 1943. Imported Bullion gold, $312,093; silver, $243,093; specie gold $17,2o5,190; silver, $8,030,302 total 23,74 1 ,6-1 1 . " Exported Bullion gold, $150; silver, none; specie gold $204,GGo, silver, 2,613, 2S3 total $3,118,399. The average importations for ten years to 30th September, 1842, were less than ten .millions annually. In 1S34 they amounted "to $17,91 l,632,and in 1838 to $17,747,116. From that time they had varied from eight to'ten thousand annually, being in 1841 $4,988,633 in 1842 $4,087,016 and 1843 rhen the Tariff was in full operation, $23,741.641. ' as above. These simple facts j g v speak volumes. The Tariff has not only stoped the continual drain of specie from the country, but occasions a steady influx of the precious metals from all parts of the world in other words, we keep the specie at home, and pay our own laborers instead of Europeans. . A DEFENCE OF THE WHIGS. By a Nembcr of the 27th Congress. We have reason to believe that this useful work, which we have already noticed, is from the pen of the Hon John P. Kennedy, ne of the most distinguished members of that Congress, who has been just elected again by Uie noble Whigs of Baltimore as their representative. The following paragraph concludes the authors sketch of Mr. Webster's connexion with the administration: "Still the Whigs will pardon much to Daniel Webster: more than to most other men. They will pardon much for the sake of his past history; a history full of glorious remembrances, redolent with the odor of Constitutional Liberty. They will not easily be driven to forget that, iu the weaiy days of their adversity, his firm foot was planted upon their ramparts, nor withdrawn as long as danger threatened; that in the murky night when the enemy was creeping toward our citadel, he stood faithfully upon guard, with a constancy that '"oulw.iU!rrT"l;K: liv tr; tnat in the assault, h.s voice ol exhortation 'rang like a clarion; that iu the melee hi stai- j wart torrn roelo on the title ot battle where the heaviest blows were struck; and whether the issue were defeat or 'victory they were ever accustomed to had him at hand ever ready toconsoleor applaud , Wliila such recollections cluster around his- name, the Whigs will forgive much to Cjeurde Lion forgetjmuch. They know his dogged, moody, temper; his intractable self-will; his fretful waywardness. They have often seen these scrawling on his broad brow, and flashing in the awakened Are of Iris eye: seen them often, not without a sigh. But they know his faults are not the faults of a temper which deals t dissimulation or meditates over schemes of treachery; the, faults, rather, of a mind that will not brook delay, which has "not trained itself to patience, which thinks of its hopes "not wisely but too well." They will yet pardon much to Daniel Websler." i The following extract gives a clear and just summary of the labors and results of the Twenty-seventh Congress. The enormou3expendilure of the preced ing administration has been reduced to lit" tie more than its average annual amount; gross abuses,which hid heretofore grown up under the neglect of connivance of former Legislatures, have been fully explored and divulged; peculation and fraud have been arrested; the revenues have been restored; collisions with foreign powers guarded against in future; bankruptcy has been re leased from deadly burden,and thousands of useful citizens have been recalled to active enterprise; commerce has been put under every protection of law and restored to its ancient vigor; mechanical industry has been sent back, cheerful and happy, to its deserted field; agricuture, the foundation of the great mass of national wealth has been en couraged to a renewed labor, by the gift of , a thriving and prosperous market at home; the great and invaluable principle of a district Representation the safest and best, guarantee which our government can offer -.of its faith to maintain the most precious gift of Republican government, the protec tion, namely, of the minority by giving them their proper voice in the National Council has been secured, as far as the twenty-seventh Congress could secure it by law. All these have been accomplished. If the currency has not been settled; if the States iiave been deprived ol their just inheritance in the public lauds, if the District system has not been effectually established, let the nation ask of Mr. Tyler and his new Democratic allies why these measures have not been secured. What was achieved will long be remembered to the honor of the Whig ascendancy, The labors of the twenty-seventh Congress will not be lost. For years to come the investigations, reports, plans and propositions of that Congress will furnish sure guides and aids to beneficent legislation is all the great departments of the public interest; C-A New Haven paper or the 1st, says that a true bill was found the day before, against a young Fasset, for an "assault and attempt to kill.11 This is the unfortunate case, it will be remembered, which resulted in the death of Tutor D wight, of Yale College. The trial probably took place last week.

CT"Thc yashington correspondent of the Boston Courier, good authority in such matters, furnishes the following consolatory information to certain ofiiee-holders who have not come straight in at the door, but have "climbed up some other way :M ' '"' "Whig Senators inform me, in regard to confirmation of Democrats appointed in place of ejected Whigs, they have decided unanimously upon one course of action. Wherevor a Whig has been removed to make place for a Democrat, without good and sufficient charge of official malversation, or xross incompetency, the new appointee will be assuredly decapitated. 'This is to be the invariable rule. But where a Democrat has been appointed to fill a vacancy, legitimately occuring, the nominee will be confirmed -no objection to charter or competency appearing. Those now in office, inducted under tbo late democratic movement, may read their late. The decree has passed, irrevocable as Jove's.

TUE OREGON QUESTION. Presuming the Madisoniau on this subject to express views common to it and the Administration we have read wirft great satisfaction, in a vigorous article upon the course of the Globe in regard to this question, sentiments at once most just and patriotic. The Oregon question, says that paper, cannot be made a party question- the people of the United States will never plunge into a war merely to gratify political aspirants. "If we are to have war if we must have war, we must have just cause For it, and the justice of our cause must be so plain and. palpable that the whole nation without distinction of party will take up arms.1' Again, says the same paper, "We repeat that the Oregon question) which certain politicians would use as an "instrument to attain their ambitious ends, cannot be made a party question in the Senate or out of it. The East, the North, and the South will not permit it.' Nat. Int. From Miss" Leslie's Magazine. TWO WAYS.OF TELLING THE SAME STORY. BV GEOJtGE COiJIAX. An English ship of war was cast away on hervoyage home from-the West Indies and the circumstances of the wieck was related by two persons (very different iu their characters and education) who were snatched from the waves, viz: the chaplain and tha boatswain, who stuck by the vessel until she went to pieces, and then clung to a loose plank until (!ier were picked up bv a mer(cliaiitnrui and safely landed in England. The chaplain thus bean : "The chief passenger on board our unfor tunate s'up was an officer iu the army, wiiose maimers and sentiments, while they commanded that deference due to the bravery of his own profession, claimed the respect which is given to the morality of mine. His wife accompanied him oh the voyage. Her beauty was dazzling to the eye, (that in deed is tittle 1) but tiiere was a m;lu expression of feminine goodness about her which interested the herrt. They had two children on board a boy six years old, and a girl who seemed about a twelve month younger than her little brother. They were lovely infants, but they have perished! A faithful negro (a man servant was the attendant on the family. "On the tenth day of our voyage the sailors had expressed their fear of a storm, horn indications with which I am unacquainted. Their predictions were bin too true!- The night seemed gloomy and the moon, which had risen watery and pale, was frequently obscured by the heavy clouds, which threat ened to deluge our devoted ship. A hurri cane ensued the ocean heaved the strain ed planks yielded to the lashing' waves the thunder rolled and the lightning play ed upon the faces of the dispairing wretches, who clung to the ropes and masts expectant of their fate. The -captain and crew toiled through the horrors of the night; and the passenger whom 1 have already, mentioned was no idle spectator of our distress. The English officer ran nimbly up the shrouds, the negro servant followed him with equal intrepidity; but as the officer reached the top, a cord gave way. lie had just time to exclaim 'Oh God! my wife and children?' and fell headlong into the raging deep. The negro dashed in to save, but perished with his master. The wife at this instant rushed upon deck, grasping an infant in each arm. She glanced wildly upon the roaring ocean a sudden flash ot lightening presented to her view.her husband, clasped by the faithful negro, both sinking together beneath the foaming waves she uttered a dreadful shiiek of agony, and fell lifeless on the deck. "Thestoim continued, and the morning's dawn was ushered in by increasing peals of thunder! Alas! they were now orphans. "Do not disturb her any more, said the boy "perhaps she is asleep; let us go look for my fcther." And he threw his arms about his sister's neck. At that instant with one tremendous crash the vessel bustassunder." "The boatswain and myself, of all our unfortunate crew, alone remained to pay our adoration to ihatProvidcnce who stretched forth a saving arm, and snatched us from the deep." The boatswain's account as given to his messmates on his next voyage is that of a man accustomed to danger, and considering an occasional shipwreck as a thing of course. "Life's but a short voyage though it's plam sailing to some and cramp navigation to others. I have had my share but what then? Why in that there last voyage of mine from the West Indies my limbs! there was vour works! Sailed from Kings ton harbor crew aboard -.all well cabin passengers captain and his wife and children, ami Bumbo, his black negro- S pi inter me! The tenth night moon shining after a while the cloud j began to muster, and the moon looked as round and as dull ti3 an unwashed platter; and then all the night grew as dark as pitch. Then the wind set in from the norrad rough as a Norway bear, and roared loud enough to blow old

Davy's hrsad offi Down we hauled the., topga'iit sails, with the light'nin' whizzing about our sconces. I could scarcely keep my bearings, and stafft'ered as if I had got my grog

aboard. The officer, our passenger, thought as how he'd bear a hand aloft, but being a land lubber, d'ye see, he missed his stays and tumbled down clean over board, in the turning of a handspike. .Poor blackey never waited for sailin' orders, but slipped the cable of an houest heart, and took his departure after his master, and they both set 's'il on a voyage of discovery. The. poor lady screamed as if the cordage of her life had given away ; and capsizing, fell upon her face as if the storm of grief had upset her.J But when the little ones began to pipe, I was forced to swab the spray from my brows and sheer off to my duty. It blew great guns! bang went the mizen! all was confusion from the jib-boom to the crogecfe-yard. A sea unshipped the rudder, and washed overboard sheep, goats, hen coops, pigsand water casks." . . "The sailors sung out fire! fire!! from the starboardjquarter -the timbers groaned again, unshipped their seams, and she blew up with an infernal crash! My eyes! how I stared when I found my life stays had not given way and that I was still rated able on on the books of mortality. I thought at first I had been in Davy Jones' locker. But then I looked round and saw myself seated upon three planks which had struck together, with the chaplain alongside to pray to me!" HENRY CLAY ON THE CHARACTER OF WASHINGTON. The followig letter from Mr. Clay was read at the Whig Celebration of Washington's Birth Day in Philadelphia. New Orleans 10th Feb., 1844. Gentlejiex: My absence from this city has delayed the transmission ol my acknowledgement of the receipt of your letter, inviting me, at the instance ol the Whig citizens of the cily and county ot Philadelphia, to unite with them in the celebrating the approaching birth day ol Washington. 1 should be most happy to be present on that interesting occasion. Of all ihe men of whom history or tradition has preserved any account, Washington, by common concent deserves the geatest admiration. Tho birth of no man that ever lived is so well entitled to perpetual commemoration, as a rare blessing bestowed on mankiud by the goodness of Providence. In contemplating his career and charier, we behold displayed and concentrated in him, calmness, dignity, moderation, firmness, fide illy, disinterestedness, wisdom all the virtues that adorn the warrior, the patriot,fhe statesman, and the honest man. .Most justly has he acquired ihe tide ol Father ol his Country. During ihe Revolution, a.iid since, many good men have arisen in the United Stale9;but Washington stand-, at an immeasurable height, elevated far above them all. He is the model of true greatness, which it should be the highest ambition of tiio youths ol our coutry to strive to imitate; but alas! when again if ever will the world behold hiaequal. The task of recalling the purer days . of the Republic during which he lived, and figured, and of renewing the unadulterated republican principles which he so fondly cherished nndjsuctestfudy enforced, by distinguished celebrations ol the anniversary of his birtii and by otlier appropriate means, is eminently worthy of the W big citizens of the city and county of Philadelphia themselves unexcelled by any other communi,ty iu devotion to those principles. I hope iiiir exertions may be encouraged, and their lauda able aim accomplished. Gladly would 1 make any humble contribution in my power to the attainment of the patriotic end, but the distance that seperates us,and other engagements which 1 have contracted, will not allow me to assist on the occasion to which you have done me the honor to invite me. 1 am obliged therefore, only to lender my grateful acknowledgements, and the cordial assurance with which 1 am, Truly your friend and ob't servant II.

THE COLUMBIAN i.AO V'S & G EXTTiRMAN'sJ M VG AZIXKv EDITED BY JOHN IN. MAN ; And filled with Contributions from the most emineut nnd accomplish - . ed writers of the country

. THE motives which have led to the commencement of this undertaking may be briefly stated. It is believed by ihe proprietor that there is iu the United' States an immense provision of literary ability, for which ns vet there is no adequate encouragement, or field ol display : lhal besides ihe number f clever and euccesslul writers, whose productions are weekly, and monthly, and annually read with delight by thousands, there are yet greater numbers constantly arriving at maturity of power, who have only to appear on the stage of publication to recerve a brilliant award of fame, and that the poivera of those whose names are already pronounced with respect by lips of wisest censure, ore capabieof more and still higher exertion than has yet been called forth. It is believed, loo, thai the demand for lilerary production in this country, . especially in the periodical channel, exceeds the, supply in a very largo proportion, and that new supplies have only to be presented of the right qualiiy, and in the fight way, to ensure a hearty welcome and profitable reception. -No doubt is entertained" of the American mind's abi lity to sustain itself certainly on its own ground, if not abroad against all the competition that (he intellect of other lands can bring to the encounter; and lull assurance is felt thai among the millions of American readers there can be, and is, a cordial welcome for a I that American writers can produce of excellent and interesting. . - . . -. ,, From these premises it is undoubtedly inferred, that tiiere is abundant 'room lor another Magazine, notwithstanding the merit and success of those already in being: that there can be no lack of ability to fill 'its pages acceptably within the reach of capital and literal enterprise; and that such a periodical wiil not fail to be greeted as a welcome visiter by thousands trpon thousands, who as yet have done little or nothing toward the suppoit and development of American periodical lner.:ture. Another strong motive has been, -the feeling that N. York, the fir?t city of 1 ire Union, should be the home of a perii.dicul ow ning no superior in either merit or success. The Columbian Magazine will be published en the first day of every month . Its mechanieal afraugsi.ients will comprise the best paper, type and workmanship, thai money can procure. lis contributors wiil bo sought for among the ablest and most popular writes , in the country; and no efforts will bo spared to secure the aid of the most distinguished, such as J.
