His career in Cougress is too generally known for us to do more than give it a passing glance; and such was the estimation in which he was held by General Jackson that notwithstanding the violence of the nullification controversy, the old Presideut uniformly ex pressed the most auction ate regard for Mc Duffie, saying repeatedly 'that if there was an honest man alive, that man was George Mc Dnffie.' He was undoubtedly one of the most intellectual men of the age; his mind was emi nently logical, and you shall try in vain to find a flaw in his argumcuts. One might have differ ed with him in the principles he expressed, bnt to grant his premises was to concede the argument. His contests with Webster leave no doubt as to the splendor of his intellect ; his report on the United States Bank, was the ablest argument ever made on that side of the questiou ; and his speeches on internal improvements, the tariff, the removal of the deposites, and on the expe diency of amending the constitution, are all masterly, and seem to exhaust those subjects. When he rose to speak, there was always a deathlike silence in the House you might have heard a pin drop. His burning enthusiasm, the sparkling of his splendid grey eye, the emphat ic enuueiation that accompanied every word, held you captive, and step by step he hurried you along with him, from point to point, until 3Tou were subdued by the fascinating fervor of his transcendent genius. Nor was he delicieut in sarcasm; -his speeches in reply to the attacks of that miserable compound of vulgarity and impudence, rristram Burgess, abound in wit and humor. His comparing General Jackson to Jupiter Tonans, in which Jupiter is represen ted as seizing the arms of all the Gods, wield ing the powers of the Pantheon, and giving 'the stamp of Fate,' was oue of the happiest illustra tions of executive spoliation that has ever been His seat in the convention was to the left of the president, and in the vicinity of Major Hamilton, the revolutionary veteran. ion could have recognized McDuffie at a glance. He was of the medium height, aud dressed in a claret colored coat that was much too large for him; but his intellectual face attracted you at ouce, especially when his splendid eye was fired by the excitement of discussion. His hair was black, and cut with mathematical precision, straight from temple to temple, and smoothed down so as to display the shape of his head, which was large and admirably formed. But ! alas! there is a hectic flush upon his pale cheek; yon perceive that he is daily dying from the immedicable wound he received in his youth. His hands are trembling violently. He is up ! but his voice is clear and calm, his enunciation distinct, and his manner emphatic. Uttering a bold proposition, he pauses, and his eagle eye glances round the assembly. All is hushed. You might hear your heart beat. But now he dashes into the argument, and you see &u intel lectual warrior before you, brandishing the ar mor of thruth, and wielding the hand of justice for liberty and the rights of man. He speaks like one inspired his thoughts, words, and ac tions, are sublime and when he pauses, as if to make a mighter effort, you feel like one entranc ed, and craze with wonder at the man whose magic mind and eloquence have bound you cap tive to his triumphal ear McDuffie rose rapidly from obscurity to emi nence, dividing the future, in the opinion of many, with Mr Calhoun, who was the first to recojrnize and to foster the fortunes of the or phan bov. lie stepped at once to the head of the bar and until his election to Congress, he had no competitor in South Carolina as a law yer. His practice was very lucrative, and per haps no lawvcr ever acquired so large a fortune in so short a time. In his marriage, too he was fortunate, leading to the" altar oue of the wealthiest bcanties of the land a daughter of Colonel Richard Singleton. In his manners, McDuffie had tire simplicity of a child. We shall relate an instance which is characteristic of the man. 'Your Mr Mc Duffie is a very singular person!' said a young lady to ns on one occasion. 'How so?' 'Why, I was at the Springs, a few mouths since, and learning that the great Mr McDuffie was in the house, I went into the corridor to catch a glimpse of him, when who should approach me but the great man himself, saying -.miss have lost my hat; won't you help me to hunt for it?' 'Of course yon did?' l es,' rcpiiea u;e lady, 'and found it! And his appearance, on ordinary occasions, was anything but distingve We shall relate an anecdote that occurred ouiy a few days before his election as Uovernor 01 the State. We were standing oy nus sme i n.. House of Representatives, when a mcinoer irora Charleston, Major Jonn .linger, uppruauiau McDuffie, and said, 'Give me that chair; I wish rvdmiel Warren.' 'Certainly, sir, 'replied McDuffie, and handed the chair to Major Huger, who took it to old Uolonel warren, requesting him to relieve himself from the pain of support ing himself on bis crutch, for the old hero had lost a legattnc oaineoi ovainiii. gnnc ma.we think it was Pickens Butler, the pre sent Senator in Congress who witnessed the npnrrence. drew Aiajor nugcr usiuc, fcaviug, What have vou done !'

He used considerable action, indeed it was rather dangerous to have a seat in his vicinity; and more than once we saw General Hayne dodge to avoid a blow from the sweeping arm of the orator. In the course of his argument, he would occasionally relate an anecdote that served to amuse, and relieve the audience, aud which afforded him a good opportunity to take a fresh start in the argument he was elaborating. Poor McDuffie! We . see him in our mind's eye, as he stood on that occasion, uttering 'thoughts that breathe aud words that burn' bold, impassioned, eloquent and now, alas! he sleeps the sleep that knows no waking, bnt his memory will be cherished by his dear 'native land, and his name be embalmed in the brigh test page of his beloved Carolina. Mobile Trihunf.. Important Proclanation. The subjoined important proclamation, issued by the President of the United States, will be read with interest.

F 11 AX KLIN PIERCE. By the President : W. L. Marcy, Secretary of State. The Caloric Ship. Capt. Ericsson, in a note to the editors of the New York Express, says : "The new engines arc completed, and have been at work for several days, their operation proving conclusively that the practical difficul ties which attended the first arrangement have all been overcome. The new engines are much reduced in size, whilst their principle of action is the same as before, with this exception only, that condensed atmospheric air is employed in place of the ordinary atmospheric, for producing the motive power. "This modification admits of an increase of power, limited only by the capa bility of retaining the presssre in the machine. Some difficulty has been experienced in this respect, and it is this which has caused some delay recently. The obstacle is, however, near ly removed, and the public will shortly have an opportunity of judging by practical evidence of the merits of the caloric ship." We venture to assert, that in no town in North Carolina, is there more enterprise and public spirit exhibited, than in Fayetteville, and none for which the State has done as little. Her citizens are active aud enterprising, aud what they lack in means, they make up in in dustry and perseverance. They have more plank roads than perhaps can be found leading from any town m the Tsonth, and these are built mainly by individual subscription, and we hazard little in saying, that but for the arrogant boastings of Colby & Smith, they soon would have had a rail road to the coal fields. We wish the new enterprise, the establish ment of a female school, the greatest success. Raleigh Giraffe. A most revolting tragedy occurred at Sonth ington, Conn., on the 19th inst. A Mr Finch, while probably laboring under mental aberra tion, proceeded to the room of his daughter, an idiot, abont 20 years of age, and cut her throat with a razor while she lay asleep, after which he performed the . same horrible opera tion on himself. Both died almost immediately. December 8, 1S53.
