Orzeli, an Italian, li vine at No 216 William street, yesterday caused the ar rest of a young French artist, named Lamore Loots, whom be charged with sending him a challenge to tight a duel. The accused had become enamored of tbe same lady oo whom the affections of Orzali had been set, and, as a cousequence, tbey became eneinie. Tbo fair one seemed to favor Orzali's suit and a day or two ego an encounter occurred be tween two rivals, wbicb resulted ia tbe thrashing of the Frenchman.

Tbe Susquehanna at this place, though well up, was about half closed, and was running thick witb ice.

We are pleased to see that our eonntry Banks, or those in the valley of tbe Basque baoDa, have not succumbed to tba measures adopted by tbe city Banks, in suspending specie payments. A meeting was held at Northumberland, on Wednesday last, at wbicb tbe Banks of Northumberland, Sbamo kin, Danville, Lewisburg, Williamsport, Jer. spy Shore, Lock Haven and others, were represented by their officers, who, after due consultation, resolved to adhere to their Original position in refusing to follow' the action of the city Banks, in regard to bus pension. These Banks are all well conduc ted and sound in their resoorces, and depre cate tbe policy of tbe Philadelphia Banks, which have, in effect, placed themselves and their assets into tbe hands of the brokers. Our Banks all have large balances due them in the city Banks. With their country cus tomers they anticipate no trouble or difficulty, nod if any of the city financiers should endea vor to speculate in the currency, wbicb by their action tbey have depreciated, tbey will we presume, be readily accommodated by drafts on their own Banks for any amount they may present. We are gratified to see that our Banks have the ability and indopen- ( aVnce to cut loose from the city Banks, in . refusing to adopt a policy as injurious to their interest' as it is disagreeable in its opora ' lions. Tbe Now York aud Kit-torn Banks : have refused to suspend, and we regret our ( Philadelphia institutions did not pursue the ; same policy. C5" The financial troubles brought about by tbe secession movement at the South, has as was generally anticipoted, caused a general suspension of sperln payments by the city Banks end many of the country. The action of tbe Legislature of Snnth Carolina, author, litig the Bunks of that State to suspend, was followed by tbe ar.tuul suspension of tbe Basks or Virginia, Maryland, tbe District of Colombia, aud of tbe South generally ; and oo Thursday tbe 22d at 1 o'clock, the Banks of Philadelphia, nfter a full meeting or their Presidents for consultation, resovled to sus pend. The New-Jersey Batiks also suspend. ed. The New-York IlAuks have not bus. peoded, but have agreed to make common their whole stock of roin, amounting to about twenty millions of dollars, to pay it out to tbe lest dollar, if demanded, and to expand their loans and discounts to an unlimited extent, to meet the wants of the business community. That tbey will be alio to hold out in this course until the panic has subsided we have no doubt. The present suspension, unlike that of 1857, has been caused by no financial pressure, but originates soluly from tbe politi cal dangers which threaten tbo country. It bas created little or uo excitement, and bus been followed by few failures. It is generally regarded as a precautionary measure to enable tbe Banks to expand their discounts and prevent tbe wild scenes of 1857. The Banks, witb few exceptions, throughout tbe State, are abundantly able to meet all their liabilities. CJ"Stkam on thk Carai.. A steam canal boat is now running in Tide Water Canal, with decided Euccess. The boat is owned by Wm. M'Conkey, Esq., of Wrightsville. Her dimensions are about eighty-foar feet io length, fifteen feet four inches in breadth, and six feet six inches io depth, with capacity for a cargo of eighty tons, and with a motive power sufficient to tow auotber craft of oue hundred tons, which will at oil times accom pany ber. The engine, a propeller of twenty horse power, was built io Baltimore. Tbe wheel is forty-five inches in diameter, and is so placed as not to revolve below tbe bottom of tbe boat and dig into the bed of tbe canal. Tbe smoka Btark is arranged witb hinges so as to be easily lowered in passing under bridges. Tbe fuel used is anthracite coal. She recent ly made the trip to Havre d-(jrace, round tbe bay, a distance of sixty miles, in less than twelve hours, with a c irgo of four hundred sacks of salt- The average speed coming up the Canal was less tban three miles per hour, though of course in wide and deep water a better speed was attained. atXKSMOM IS 1C3-A. Tbe following extract, giving interesting details of tbe secession movement in 1S32, is .from a Charleston correspondent of the Phil adelphia Inquirer, and will be read with interest at tba present time : NulliGcation ic South Carolina iu 1832, as yoo are aware, grew ott of ao inequality in the Tariff measures of tbe day. Parton, in bis Life of Jswkson, says "Calhoun began it Calhoun continued it Calhoun stopped it." Tbe old Jackson men did not at that time speak in very complimentary terms of Calhoun. Tbey charged Lim witb "thinking it better to reinn iu South Carolina than to serve io the United StateK." Jackson (ac cording to Parton,) "in bis last sickness, declared that in retiuctiog npon his adminis tration, be chiefly regretted that he had not had John C. Culhnau executed for treason. My country," said tbe General, "would have suetaiued me in tbe act. aud bis fate would have been a warning to traitors io all time to come." If (here ever was a man dearly beloved, John C. Calhoun was in South Carolina. Nay, be was worshipped and idolized. Tbe bare meution of bis name, even now, briogs the glis.te.ning tear to the eye of a stout heart that would not quail belore a niue-sun battery loaded with grape and canister. 1 merely give the extract to show bow serious the matter was iu 1832, and to convince those at tbe North, who are disposed to treat tbe subject flippantly, thut it it mure serious in 18C0. The nullifying ordinance of 1832, was pass-, ed on tbe 24th of of November, by a Conven tion which met at Colombia. Jt consisted of one hundred and forty membejs. It is said to have been tbe most able body of men that ever conveued together ia I be State Tbe ordinance, which may be of interest to your readers, is aa follows : 1. That tbe Tariff law of 1828, and the amendment to tbe same of 1832, weie "null. void, aud no law, nor biudiog upon this State its officers, or cilizeos." 2- No duties enjoined by that law. or its amendment, (bull be paid, or permitted to be paid, in the State of South Carolina, after toe isi day or F ebruary, 1833. 3 lu no rase iuvolviug tbe validilf of tbe expected nullifying act of tbe Legialatore, ueii ao appeal to tbe bapreme Court of tbe lolled butrs be permitted. No copy of iuuvcuniii auaii ue auowea to be takeo lor tbat purpose. Any attempt to appeal to tbefeupremeCourl, "may be dealt with as lor a eooumpt of tbe Court'' from which the appeal ia takeo. t',e7 otEce bolder ia the State, whether tu. ii,, i or tue military service, and every ptraon hereafter asauoiiog an office, and every juror, shall take an oath to obey ibis ordinance, and all acts of tbe Legislature, in accordance therewith or suggested thereby. 6. If tbe Government of the United States shall attempt to enforce the tariff laws, now existing, by means of its army or navy, by closing the ports of the State, or preventing tbe ingress or egress of vessels, or shall io any way harass or obstruct tbe foreigo com merce of the State, Men South Carolina will no longer consider herself a member of the Federal Union ; thi "people of this State will thenceforth hold themstlves absolved from all Jurtner ooiiga ion to matmatri or preserve their political connection with the peoule of the other States, and will forthwith proceed to oroanizt a separate government and do all other acts and things which sovereign and independent States may of a right do." Tbe commotion which this document crea ted in tbe minds of the people thronghont tbe conotry is yel treat) and green to the memo ries of many of yonr readers. Robert Y llayne, one of South Carolina's most brilliant and eloquent sons, and the master spirit of the nulliners. was elected Governor or ine State. He pledged himself not only to carry out the acts of tbe Convention, but every abt of the Legislature, and every judgment of the courts which might devolve on mm. lie recognized "no allegiance as paramount to that which the citizens of South Carolina owed to tho State of their birth or their adoption." Tbe Legislature endorsed the acts or the Conveniton and tbe Governer, and authorized the raising of volunteers. Medals were worn by many of the most prominent citizens, bearing the inscription "John C. Calhoun, First President of tbe Southern Confederacy." Gen. Jackson promptly mode such deposi tions of the naval and military forces as would enable bim to Bit with swift efficiency. Gen Scott was ordered to this city for the purpose of superintending the safety of tbe forts of the United States in the vicinity. CongreBS met a short lime after. Jackson, in his message, says Pnrton, ''dismissed in a single pftragrspb, the troubles of South Caro lina, oud expressed tbe hope of the speedy adjustment of the difficulty." His memorable, proclamation soon followed, and electrified the country. Argument, warning and en treaty were blended in its composition. It refuted, one by one, the leading positions assumed by the nullificrs. Tbe right to annul and the right o secede, as claimed by them, were shown to be incompatible witb the fundamental idea aud main object or the Constitution, which was, to form a more porfect Union." He admitted that the tariff act complained of did act unequally, "bnt so did every revenue act that ever bad been or ever could be passed." The right of a State to secede was as strongly denied then as it is now at the North It was then held-"To soy that any State may, fit pleasure, secede from tbe Union, is to say that tbe United Ssates is not a nation. How can that State be said to be sovereign and independent whose citizens owe obedience to laws not made by it, and whose magistrates are sworn to disregard those laws, when they in conflict with those passed by another T" General Jadkson, as is well known, was a native of South Carolina, and many, at tbe time, feared be would falter. Hut be was made of sternor stuff. He gave tbe people of South Carolina distinctly to understand "tbat in case any forciblo resistance to the laws were attempted by them, tbe attempt would be resisted by tbe combined power and resources of the other States.' But. Bays Parton, for every word of this kind, "there were a hundred of entreaty." A compromise after a stormy debate, was passod by Congress. It was concocted by tbe eueuues of General Jackson, though be signed it. Mr. Calbooo hastily journeyed home, met tbe Convention at Columbia be fore tbey had taken any additional steps. He fouud tbat he bad to contend witb some fiery spirits, though his persuasive eloquence soon overpowered them, and tbe nullification ordinance was repealed. Since that time a new generation of man bas sprung up, and tbey are all imbued witb the same ardor and spirit wbicb prevailed in tbe bosoms of tbe nullifies of 1832-3. If it took all tbe eloquence of such men bb Jack son, Clay, Bentoo, Clayton, Calhoun, Web ster, McLaneand erplunck, to ellect even a sorry compromise 1 leave it to the wiser beads loan mine to say what it will take now to overturn the revolution which will take place so sure as there is a difference between light and darkness. Tbe biographer i f Jackson spoke prophe iically wben he said tbat it would have been more like Jackson to have vetoed the Com promise. "The time may come when the people of the United States will wish he had vetoed it und thus brought to an issue and settled finally a qucstvm which, at some future day, may as suine more uwkirard dimensions, aud tbe country have no Jacks n to meet it !" Daniki. Wkbster on "Pkaceablk Sucks Bios. A Thrilling Speech. In his last great speech in the Senate, on tbe 7tb of March 1850 Daniel Webster thus spoke of secession. "Mr. President I should much prefer to have heard, from every member on the floor, declarations of opiuion tbat ibis Union could never be dissolved, than tbe declaration of opinion by any body, tbat in any vase, andei tbe pressure of any circumstances, eucb a dis olutioo was possible. 1 boar witb distress and anguish tbe word "Secession," especially when it falls from th lips of loose who are patriotic, and known to tbe country and known all over tbe world, for their political services.

She will have a space two hundred feet long and thirty io diameter. The main shaft will, ac cording to tbe specification, weigh thirty tons. The new ship will be constructed witb pressure engines, und tbe builders have no doubt of success. Every advocate of tbe doctrine oi Secession io the free btates, and hence of the- disunion ists in the South, supported Kreckioridge and Lao at the laat electioo.

At moment when tbe Republic is io peril, od when internal enemies, without the slight est causs, are plotting to over throw it, men, calling themselves Democrats, and forgetful of tba example of Washington, Jaflersoo, and Jackson, take the aid of Disunion, and coldly argue tbat ciliceot of a State bate right, at any time, to break p ibe Confede racy I It eaht to be added, however, that lb Boston I 'out, like tbe most of its school, ia paid oat of the nublio Treasury for its treason, at tbe rate of us thousand dollais a year.
