This my colleagues declined, and again urged me to offer a nomination. I then said that if such was their wish, 1 would name several individuals from whom they could make their choice: and accordingly 1 pn srnted the names of John Tyler. (lovernor Owe n of North Carolina, and John Bell of Tennessee. They still declined making tho selection, and wished me to designate the candidate. I then nimed John Tvler. and he was uuaniniou-ly accepted. Ho was on the ground and knew what course I had taken.

On Monday, Tuesday t-nd Wednesday of this week, the sale of real estate in this end the surrounding counties belonging to the State Bank, took place in this City. Tho result has nstonished every body: and in our opinion, mnnv who have bought, under the ex pectation of paying in ctrtilicates at their present rates, will find thtmstlves badly bit. The property rut only sold readilv at its appraised value, but in many instances, more than doubled it. Thi3 was the cae with nearly all the improved property the Bank held in this Oily: and several tracts of Land, within three miles of Alton, appraised at six and eight dollars per acre, -old for twenty and tweniy-fivo dollars per acre. The. sales here exceed one hundred thousand dollars and if the liank is as fortunate in ner sales at other points, her real estate, inst.-ad of being dead capital to her, will prove a source ol profit. This cannot avoid enhansiric the rates cd her scrip and bill". i!l on Ttlcgropt. i. - M ft Q - Burglary. A case of house breaking occurred in this city on Thursday night, the circumstances of which v. e have learned are as follows. A boatman, iiamedjGeo. Kauti'man, had rrd.se ! n considerable sum of m:.ney, (over .sTOO) the proceeds ol a sale. Ho boarded at the houc of Mr. Pallet son, on the Levee between Jackson and Philip streets. Fearing thM hia money would not be safe at his boarding house which is an old wooden building, he on Thursday deposited his trunk containing the money, in tho clothing store of .Mr. James M Carey, a substantia, brick Luilding lately erected. Unfortunately his movements must have been watched by some rogues bent on despoiling him, for ou Fr.day morning the stcre of Mr. McCarey was found to have been broken open, and the money disappeared. The thieves made their way into tho house by breaking a hole in the wall on the south side of the building. They first got inta stock yard on that side, e.ud then perfectly secure from observation, went to work, and with a small crowbar, a chisel or some other tools dug into the brick w ork, making a passage about 13 by 15 inches in extent. We learn that suspicion rests with some persons in the neighborhood, and that fin arrest was made yesterday by order cf Mayor Kenny," but the individual arrested lias not yet been examined.
