They generally have time to go to | election, altend public barbacues, camp-meetings, sales, & singing sebouls, but they have ‘‘no time | to read.’ They frequenily spend whole days in | gossipping, tirppling, and awapping horses, at the cross roads of county town, dut they have ‘no time read.” ‘They sometimes luse a day iv asking advice of a neighbour—sometime, a day in pick— ing op the news, the pricey current, and the exchanges-~ but these men never have any “time to read.” They have time to hunt, to fish, to fiddle, to drink, ‘todo nothing,’ but ‘ no time to read.’ Such men.usually have unedncated chil - dren, unimproved farms; and unhappy firesides ! ‘They have no energy, no spirit fur improvement, no love of kaowledge; they live ‘unknowing and unknown,’ and often die unwept and unregtet ted. — Southern Cultivator. The New York Ceovrier and Enquirer of Tharsday thus speaks of a family now residing in Groton, New London coanty, Connecticut: Daniel Whipple, a young man of 42 years of age, had a family of 16 children, and Noah Whipple, 40 years of age, had a family of 14 children. Daniel and Noah were cousins and had married sisters. In the visitations of Prov- idence Daniel died, and also Noah's wife. The widow had 16 children to provide for, and honest Noah only 14 dear little creatares, To mothers and fathers who quail at the idea of supporting a small family of 8 or 10 children, louk at this good man’s history, and Jearn a les- son of valour, fortitude, and resignativoa. Buth families were entirely destitute, dependen! on the labor of their bands for sapporf. Noah was a stone mason, & daily went to his work with ao honest heart and contented mind; and when he retarned home at nigh:, 14 children flucked around him at the door to receive a fa- ther’s store and careseatay Mother they had pon®; and their father deter- mined that they should have another to protect them daging the day, when he was absentyand administer tu their wants atnight. .As an evi- dence of the purity of the religion of: his people, he did not siudy alone tu make himself happy 1p the selection he was abontto make; he did not think alune of bis children, but be thought of Daniel’s—and moreaver hethought of Daniel’s wife, and became the father of Daniel’s children, and theltmother the mother of his, making an united family of $2, two elder and thirty young- er Whipples. All yoa fathers and muthers who are perplexed and dissatisfied in provicing fora small family of 10 or 12 children, visit Connee- licut, and see a smal} house filled to overfluwing like a bee hive, with contentment and’ pleasure impressed cn the countenances of all; and you will return home insirected and contented. AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE. The Rev. James Hoghes, of Clare Morris, Ireland, furnishes the particulars of a most ex- traordinary case, thai of aman named Bernard Cavanagh, who according to report, had subsist- ed for three years and ten months in perfect health, without the aid of food of any kind whatever. ‘The matter was tested by a pablic experiment which lested for ex days and six nights during whieb he abstained from all poor- ishment. ‘Ibe particulars are given in detail, and endorsed by a number of respectable witnes- seg, in a late number of the Doublig Evening ster. The experiment was managed by a committee of fifteen gentlemen, and Cavanegb was asked generally fyar times each day, some- times oftener, in presence each time of many persons, Protestants and Roman Catholics, if he wavted any thing, or if be wished to go home. ‘I'hese were the only questions put to him; bis enswergeach time, which are atiested by twentylsix witoesses, Protestants aod Cath— olics of respectability, were that he was content and that he would continoe as he was a8 lutg as they wished.

I shall be happy to co operate with you in bringing iatg active operation, all the elements of greainess and of usefoloess with which oar State is so abundantly blest. Other sfates have outstripped us in the career of improvement, and in the development of their matorat resoarces —bat North Carolina will standa favorable comparison #ith most of her sister Siates, in her nataral advantages—her great extent of fertile soil—ber “great variety of production —her exhanstless deposites of mineral wealth—her extraordinary water—pawer, I0Vi- ting to Manofactnres—gil, all combine to give her advantages that few other States possess.

And ! am happy to find that the action uf one of your bodfes has anticipated a suggestion that | had intended to make.—I allude to the subject of opening Roanoke Iatet. This is a work, if pract- icable, of the Grst importance to North Carolina; it is a work in which the State is deeply interes- ied—recent surveys, conduc‘ed by scientific skill, have shown that the work is practicable, and if so, it should be certainly executed. ‘The Commerce and Navigation of the Nation would be greatly benefited by it—and if there be any work which the Federal Government ought to execute, and which steers clear of all } Constitutional objection, this is the work. Thov- sands of dollars are yearly epent to improve the the States, whilst this would be an improvement by which the Atlantic itself would be introduced within our borders. If the General Government cannot execute a work of this description, or ifitcan and will not, then do we derive but hitthe advantage from our Federal association; we should not ask the excu | tion of this work by the General Government as a boon, bat demaad it asa right—and 1 hope the time ig not far distant, when the applications of North Carolita. to the General Government for her tights, will not be disregarded; —therefore whatever doties you may choose.to assign me, to bring this subject to the attention of the General Government, will be most cheerfally performed. As there may be another session of Congress be fore out Legislative body may meet again, and it’ ie probable* wo activa will be taken on the sgbjert at thissession of Congress, 1 would res- pecifally suggest that any communication which youmay direct, should be made to the next ses- sinn of ope as well as to this. Jt is eqnatty our duty ,feHow-citizens, to allend to oor merat-gnd intellectual caltivation, for upon this dependseur continuance as a free and happy people. OutState possesses in her University, an iostitation that will compare favorably with any other in the Unieo, at which a portion of our youth cao be well educated —we have a num. ber of Academies and other high Schools at which anuther portion can receive exeellent edu- cations; but it isto our Common Schouls, in which every child can regive the rodiments of an education—that our attention should be mainly directed. Our system is yet in its infancy--it will require time and experience to give to it its great. est perfection, oar Literary Fund shou'd be care- fully busbanded and increaged, and { doubt not, in due time, the Legislative wisdom of the State wilt perfeet the sysiem as far as homan sagacity can du it.

OUR RELATIONS WITH GREAT BRITAIN. The following message from the Presi- .| dent of the United States was then read : To the House of Represeitatives-of the United States : I think proper to commanicate to the House of Representatives, in further answer to their resolution of the 21st alt. the correspendeace which has since occurred between the Secretary of State aod the British Minister on the same subject. M. VAN BUREN. WasuincTon, Jan 2, 184]. Mr. FOX TO Mr. FORSYTH. Wasuixeton, Dec 29, 1840. Sir ; I have the honor tofacknowledge the re- ceipt of your Jeiier of the 26th inst. im which, ja reply to a letter which | had addressed to you on the 13th, you acquaint me that the President ‘is not prepared to eumply with my demend for the liberation of Mr, Alexander McLeod, of Up- ar Canada, now imprisoned at Lockport, in the State of New York, on a pretended charge of murder and arson, as having been engaged in the destruction of the piratical steamboat **Car- oline” on the 29th December, 1837. I learn with deep regrei that soch is the de- cision of the President of the United States, for | cannot but foresee the very grave and seri- ous consequences thal must ensue if, besides the injury already inflicted upon Mr. McLeod, of e vexations and unjust imprisonment, avy further harm should be dune to him in the progress of \his extraordinary proceeding, I have Jost no time in forwarding to her Ma- jesty’s Government io England the correspon— dence that has taken place, and I shall await the farther orders of ber Majesty's Government with respect to the impurtani question which that correspondence involves, Bat | feel it my duty not to close this commu- nication withuut likewise testifying my vast re gret and surprise at the expressions which I find repeated in your letter with reference to the de- struction of the steamboat Caroline. 1 had con— fidently hoped the first erroneous impression of the character of that event, imposed upon the miod of the United States Government by par- tial sad exaggerated representatiuns, would long since have been effected by 8 more strict and ac curate examination of the facts. Such an inves tigation must even yet, | am willing to believe lead the United States Government to ihe same couvictf0o with which her Majesty’s authorities on the spot wore impressed, that the act was one in the strictest sense of self defence, rendered absolutely necessary by the circumstances of the occasion, for the safety and protection of her Ma- jesty’s subjects, and justified by the same mo- tive and principles which, upon similar and well known occasions, have governed the conduct of illustrious officers of the United States The steamboat Caroline was ea hostile vessel engaged tn piratical war against her Majesiy’s people, hired from hertowners for that express purpose, and known to be so beyond the pessibil ity of doubt. The place where the vessel was destroyed was nominally it is true, within the, tes. tory of a friendly Power, but the friendly Power had been deprived, through overbearing piratical vi- olence, uf the use of its proper authority over that portion of territory. ‘The Authorities of New York bad not even been able to prevent the artillery of the State from being carried off publicly, at mid-day, to be used as instruments of war against her Majesty’s subjects. It was onder soch circumstances, which it is to be hup- ed will never recur, that the vessel was attack— ed by a party of her Majesty's people, captured, aod destroyed. A remons!rance against the act in question has been addressed by the United States io her Ma- jesty's Government in England. [| aw not au- thorized to pronounce the decision of her Majes— y's Government apon thal remonstrance, bat | have felt myself boand to record, in the meao ume, the abeve opinion, in order to protest in the most solemn manner against the epirited and loyal conduct of a party of her sajesty's officers and people being qualified, an unfortunate misap nrehension, 2s | believe, uf the facis, with the appellation of outrage or of murder. I avail myself of this oreasion to renew to you the assurance of my distinguished consideration. HS. FOX. ma. FORSYTH TO or. FOX.’ DeparRTMENT oF State, Wasuincton, DecesBer $1, 1840. Sir: I bave the honor to acknowledge the re ceipt ut your note of the 29th instant, in reply 'o mine uf the 26th, on the subject of the arres: and detention of Alx. McLeod, as one of the i perpetrators of the outrage committed in New York when the steambuat Caroline was seized and burot. Full evidence of that outroge has been presented to her majesty’s Government with a demand for redress, and of course no dis— cussion of the circamstances here can be either useful or proper, nor can { suppose it to be your desire tuinvite it. { take leave of the subject with this single remark, that the opinion so strongly expressed by you on the facts and prin- ciples involved in the demand for reparation on her Majesty's Government by the United States would hardly have been hazarded had you been possessed of the carefally collected testimony which bas been presented to your Government in support of that demand. I avail myself of the occasion to renew to you the assurance of my distiaguished consideration JOHN FORSYTH.

The #boat was licensed anc went down the river upon the day pre- vious to its desiruction—stopping at Schlos- ser, the last siopping place above the Fa!ls. The boat then passed over that afternoon once or twice, carryiog passengers; bét, as he (Mr. F'] was informed, without any arms or,sounitions of war on board. She returned again to our own shore, and was ‘meored atour own shore, not within the nominal territory of the United States. [as expressed in the communication of the British Minister.) but within the undoubted territory of the United States, as much as was this spot oo which that House was now standing. She was moored at the wharf. and was there left in charge of the usual watch of the boat, who were wholly unarm. ed. ‘There was only one piece of arms on board; and that wasa pockot pistol not loa- ded, there being no ammunition. While thus moored, in the night, she was attacked by an armed force, which, it now appeared, was sent from the Canadian shore under the direction of Her M«jeaty’s author- ities. She was attacked without warning, and one or two (certainly one) of the boat’s hands were killed, and others were driven from on board without resistance. The boat itself was towed into the current, set on fire,in that condition sent over the Falls. This was the outrage complained of ; this was the arson complained of ; and this was the murder complained of. One of our own citizens, wholly unarmed, had his brains blown out, and was found next morniog on (he wharf. There was also good. reason to suppose that others in the boat went over the Falls, being unable to escape. He was aware that this was a difficult question between the two Governments. By the laws of the State of w York, this was a murder, and the per committing that murder and that arson was liable to be tried and punished for these crimes; and neither this Government, nor the Executive of this Government, that he could ser, had any control over the matter, unless the Gov- ernment of Great Britain should see fit to respond to the claim made in relation to this outrage, by entering into some treaty stipu- lation. the treaty- making pow- ament and Great Brit- n as ratified, became e land,) the individ- ight be pardoned. He ee there was any other ich it could be done—nor did he know that it could be done even in this. But he did foresee that, .f the same sprrit was manifested by the people at home that was exhibited by the Minister of Great Brit- ain here, the necessary course of events must almost inevitably lead toa collision, if Mc- Leod should be convicted. That he would be tried he (Mi. F.) bad no doubt. He hoped he might be innocent, and that, if he was so, he might not be convicted. But if he should be found guilty, be would no doubt be executed, unless a force, stronger than he(Mr. F ) conceived could ve brought, were sent from the other side to prevent it, or unless the event could be prevented by the treaty-making power. He would now take his seat, having risen merely to correct what he supposed to be a false impression as to the facts of the case. Mr Pickens (who spoke so low as to be almost inaudible amidst the confusion which pervaded the House, ) was understood to urge that the papers should be referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs without fur- ther discussion, especially as another deli- cate subject of negotiation was pending be- tween the two Governments, and ac a de- mand had been made or the Government of Great Britain in relation to this very outrage, to which demand a reply bad not yet been received. {Several voices here cried out, “Call the Previous Question ;” but the Reporter did not understand that motion to have been made. } Mr. Underwood objected to the printing of 5,000 extra copies of these documents, and wished to state what be considered would be the proper course. Te principles involved in the correspon- dence between the countries were,to his mind matters of very great importance; & he tho’t that these papers should be referred to the Commitiee on Foreign affairs, who should make a report on these principles; and that then that report should be sent out, in as large numbers as possible, for tbe informs- tion of the American People. What were the principles avowed on el- therside? [Mr. U bererecapitulated them, as set forth in the correspondence, and thea proceeded : | What wes necessary (o bring the case within the principles of national jurispro- dence, as laid down by the British Govern- meot? It was thatthe order sbould be given to come, or, at least, that the sanc- tion of the chief executive au:hority of the v- - William Welle;.dusing the fime that the Canedian side, and within ber Britan-; nic Majesty's dominions,) was owaer of | ot Buffalo, nearly twenty miles aboye.

His ag such... He (Mr, U.) wished that tlie® ial attention: of ‘valbldenine on Foreign Affdis should be turned to ‘this point—that they might spread before us the prmneiples of international law in relation to it’ and that they might do it with a view to any ulterior measures which might bereafier be adopted oetween the (wo countries. ~“There were other questions of deep in- terest involved. growing ous of the juris- diction of the nation and of the States, To }What point also he would be glad that the “eitentiog. This transaction had occurred us @od Greaf Britain providing for such a case; and he therefore, was not exactly pre- pared to say, as the gentleman from New York (Mr. Filmore) trad done, that-a treaty stipulatidi now entered into would have gn ex post facto operatian, 80 as to draw this ity, or divest the State courts of New York of their jarisdiction by having relation back to a thing which has already happened, and thereby prevent the State authorities from punishing a murderer witbimher jurisdiction. He did not make any positive assertion on this point—he merely threw out the iotrma- lion ; and he would be glad that the Com- mittee on Foreigs Affairs would consider the subject in this aspect. He (Mr U.) was disposed, however, to deny that there was any auilorily given by the Constitution of the United States to justify the taking away of State jurisdiction by treaty made subsequent to the fact, even if it could be done beforehand. Whatever might be the result of this af- fair,the correspondence ia relation to which’ seemed to be carried on in rather an angry spirit between the agents of the two Gov- ernments, and whatever might grow oat of other questions arising 1n other portions of the country, he (Mr. U.) thought it was ne- cessarv to take a firm and decided stand. It was not proper on the other hand, to bol- proper to submit to aggression of any kind Mr. Davis, of Indiana, submitted a few remarks in which he alluded to the length of time during which these matters had been pending, and spoke with some warmth of the crouching sycophancy which had been exhibited on the part of this Government towards that of Great Britain. Was there no point at which to stop? Was there no point where patience ceased to be a virtue? Could members sit quietly and listen to the correspondence which had been sent in two or three days since, wherein we were told that our citizens were perjured outlaws, and that the judicial tribunals of our coun- (ry were nothing more than mockery ? Was the American citizen to be lost in the braw!- ing politician? Was this land of the lion- heart and the eagle-eye to crouch to the British Government? Mr. D. then proceed- ed to say that he was tired of the words ‘amicable relations,’ of which so mucb was heard. He expected to approve but verv fe@ of the acts of Gen. Harrisons Ad- ministration ; but if it would march up and demand justice from the British Govern- ment, he (Mr. D.) would at least support that act. tle feit as all Americans should feel in such a case. He protested against the character of such a correspondence of the British Minister, which he regarded as unwarrantable and unjustifiable. Mr, Weller said be thought this matter had already been sufficiently discussed. He did not think that any good could result from discussing it further in the form in which tt was now presented ; though it might, 1t was true, afford a good opportuni- ty for gentlemen to exhibit their patriotism, their love of country, and their hostility to Great Britain. When the decision of the British Government should have been made. and when it became the duty of the Amer- ican Congress to pass upon it, he would not be fouud wanting. But at present, believ- ing that no good could result from discus- sion, he would move the previous questiun. Mr Granger asked Mr. W. to withdraw the motion to enable him to correct an er- roneous impression. Mr. Weller consented to do go on the pledge of Mr. G. to renew the motion So the demand for :he previous question having been withcrawn— Mr. Granger said that this question bad doubtless been one of excitement and agi- tation in Westero New York a3 well es in other parts of the nation; but he had ap- pealed to the gentleman from Ohio { Mr. Weller] to withdraw thé'motion for the pre- vious question, merely that he (Mr. G } might say one word as to the feeling which now existed there. An individual [continued Mr. G.} listen- ing to this debate, would suppose that the person implicated in this controversy, and who is soon to be brought before a judicial tribunal, was to be denied that right of fair and impartial trie! which is guarantied to every citizen of this country, and to every transgressor of the law in the country where he may be taken Permit me to say that, When McLeod shall be brought to trial, he will have every advantage which the law se- | cures io him; and that the proceedings will | be conducted in the same cool, dispassion- | ate, and impartial manner that wou!d char- acterize them if a murder had been com. mitted by one enizen of the State of New York npop the body of another citizen of that State.

We are among those who solemnly believe that an increase of the salaries of Stste Otfi- cers essentially important, truth as almost in- dispensibly necessary to the preservation of State Rights. So long as State employments are regard- ed as suborainate in dignity and emolument, will State Rights be regarded as subordinate in importance, and State Sovereignty and power be held in contempt. if the State desires to preserve unimpaired their own reserved rights, how is (bis to be effected but by calling into and retaining in their service men of ability, integrity and independence, and in what other way can such appointments be secured but by regard being had to the grade, dignity end emolu- ments of the office in its institutions. Norfolk Beacon. From the Cincinnati Republican. A SIGN. The National Intelligencer qao\es a paragraph from 2 New Orleans paper avowing that nulli- fication is the great safeguard of the Union,— and the Charleston Coder, received yesterday, contains Gov. Richardson’s inaugural, urging the same view. Whence this cuincidence ? — Why this effurt to revive an exploded heresy ? For what end this combined attempt to do it ? There is no'accident here. An old unionis: as was Governor Richardson, and a consistent nul- lifier as we suppose the New Orleans editor to be, could not be thus brought together without having some ulterior aim in view. What ts that aim? . We fear that that restless spirit who has so long led the forlorn hope” of the South, who affects even now to be dignified and disinterested, Juhn C.

A correspondence between the Britis, Minis- ter and Mr. Forsyth, growiog’ out of the arrest” being engaged io the burning of the “ Caruline,” is sobjoined, ‘Fhe letter of Mr. For is b offensive ip tone and sabsiance, and the “au Mr. Forsyth —the best thing we héve seen from this party, is only defective im treating ele'ter with a courtesy to whieh its gtosely 4uaslting character gave it ng claim. We have ubserved for years, in afl the, correspondence which has passed, @ seemingly studied design on the part of the British Gogernment to insult as and bring as intocontempt. Such was the case in respect tothe N E. Boondary. Without a shadow of right, they, in the piratical spirit, which has ever characteriseé their foreign pulicy, set op a claim to our Territory fotent upon the acqai- sition, they have been anscrupelous about the teans and have resorted to their usual expedients to compass their object. Hy pocritical professions of friendship, evasive deiays, unmanly prevari cations, mingled wiih a due proportivo of bally- ing and bravado, bave always ccnstituted the favorite instruments of their negotiations, and the characteristics of their policy — which has fur iis end their own aggrandizement, by fraad or furce, by cheating or pluadering other nations. Now for the first time, we have in Mr. Fox's ncte, any intimation that the gross outrage, in coming upon oar soil—-burning the ‘* Caruline ” and murdering our citizens, in time of peace, was authorized by the British Government. {9 re— ply to all demands by our Government fur ex- plapation or reparation for that high indignity and murderous outrage, we-have been cnalle to obtain any satisfaction. One while, we were given to understand, that the British Minisiry disavowed the whole proceeding—ihen there was an ominous silence—then succeeded crimi- nations against us—subterfuges caught up fur the moment, as pretexts to relieve them frum the performance of their treaty obligatiuns, and the observance of the laws of civilized nations, Now we are told for the first time and with insult, thai the invasiun of our Territory and the murder of our citizens were committed in pursuance of or- cers from Government ! These vaanting braggarts have been playing off their arts upon us lung enough. ‘They have insulted us to the puint—that any farther sub- mission impugns our honor, and brings disgrace upon us. And that national disgrace—thet the luss to a people of their own self esteem—no greater carse can befall a nation. Deprived of this estimable jewel, they sink irreclaimably in the scale of nationas—aad feeling disgraced, they become incapable of noble aspirations, and hog the ignominious fate, which awaits them, The horrors of war are certainly dreadful to contem- plate ; but they are far less terrific than a national stain, which engenders a natioo of cowards.— Then, too, war is net aliogether evil: In ibe train of its miseries, it scatters by the way-side something near akin to blessings. I! elevates the moral tone of a people—i: elicits genius, it brings to view sume of the nobler traits of bu- maa nature, it makes heroes and martyrs. It rids the world of redundant excrescences —the fungi—the moral and social lepers—the “ can kers,” spoken of by Shakspeare, ‘ of a lung peace and a calm world.” According to Mr. Jefferson, the political influences of war are highly salutary, and an outbreak, once in twen ty five years, ha considered necessary to stave off moral atrophy and purify the political atmos phere of the world. We do not subseribe to ihis opinion—we only wish tobe understvod as main taining, that there are greater evils thaa war. Mr. Calhoun, in one of his late Pytlonessical moods, asserted that the Whigs must havea warora Naiional Bank! The truth of this will be determined by the event. Of one thing we feel confident, that Old Tip, who has whip ped the British and Indians combined, will have no fears of either uf them singly ; and that he will not be much inclined to submit to any farther insults, unless, in a spirit of magnanimi'y, he regards them as emanating froma puny, little, capricious woman, and treats them wilh con- tempt; But the truth is, the British Lion’ needs laming—-and we who have tamed him twice, will have to doit the third time. If we under take the task again, we will du it pretty effec- tively. We will drive him entirely uff the con linent, unless 1t be deemed politic to profil by the example of the Israelites, who, when they came up out of Egypt, were commanded b> Moses not to subdue all the neighboring nations, bat leave a few upon whom they could occasion, ally practice themselves in the art of wor. ‘I'he same consideration migbt inte’pose to save a few strips of laod in this isphere to the British Lion.

Wasuinxaton, Dec. 13, 1840, Sir :—I am informed by bis Excellency the Lieutenant Governor of the Province of Upper Canada, that Mr. Alexander McLeod. a Brit— ish subject, and late deputy sheriff of the Nia- gara disttictin Upper Canada, was arrested at Lewiston, in the State cf New York, on the 12th of last month, on a pretended charge of murder and arson, as having been engaged in the captore and destruction of the piratical steamboat ** Caroline,” ia the month of Decem- ber, 1837. After a tedious and vexatious ex- amination, Mr. McLeod was commited for tri- al, and he is now imprisonod in Lockport jail. I feei it my daty to call apon the Governmen) of.the United States to take prompt and effec tual steps for the liberation of Mr. McLeod. [tis well known that the destruction of the steamboat ‘‘ Caroline’ was a public act of per sons in her Majesty's service, obeying the order of their superior authorities. That act, there— fore, according tothe usages of nations, can on- ly be the subject of discussion between the two National Governments; it cannot justly be made the ground of legal proceedings in the United States against the individaals” cuacerned, who were bound to obey the authorities appointed by their own Government. a I may add that [ believe it is quite potoriogs that Mr. McLeod was not one of the party en gaged in the destraction of the steamboat * Car- : Otine,’ and that the pretended charge opon | which he bas heen imprisoned résis anly ppoa that neighborba stewll pra t- ‘od BY WOSSthorities of the State of New York to the Canadian frontier, . in New York, of one of the persons suspected of two countries concerning the burning vf the | Ae question, howeger, of ‘whether Mr Me- Lue Was or Was not concerned in the desiruc- we'd} the « Caroling?-is beside the purpose of the present communication. ‘T'nat act was the public act of persons obeging the coostitued 20 thorities of her Majesty’s Province.

WasHincton, December 26, 1840. Sir :—I have the honor to acknowledge, and have laid before the President, your letier of the 13th instant, touching the arrest and imprison— ment of Alexander McLeod, a British subject, and late Deputy Sheriff uf the Niagara Disiriet, in Upper Canada, on accharge of murder and arson, as having been engaged in the caplure and destruction of the steamboat “ Caroline,” in the munth of December, 18375 io respect to whieh you siate that you fecl it your duly to call upun the Government uf the United States tu take prompt and effectual steps for the liber ativa of Mr. MeLeod, and to prevent others of the subjecis of her Majesiy, the Queen of Great Britain, trow being persecuted or aaulested in a similar manner tur che future. Vhis demand, with the grounds upon which itis made, has been duly cunsidered by ihe President, with a sincere desire tu give it such a reply as willou! only matitest a proper regard for the character and rights of the United States, bul, al the same time, to preserve the a- mivable relations which, s> advantageously for buih, subsist between this conntry and Kngland, Of the reality of this dispusi'ton, and of the ani- furmity with which it has been evinced in the many delicate and difficult’ questions which have arisen between the two countries in the last few years, nv one can be more convinced than yourself. [tis then with unfeigned regret that the President finds bimself unable to recog- nise the validity uf a demand, a compliance with which you deem so material to the preservatiua of the good understanding which bas been bith erto manifested between the two cuuntries. ‘Phe jurisdiction of the several States which constitute the Union is, within its appropriate sphere, perfectly independent of the Federal Go vernment. ‘The offence with which -mr. Me- Leod is charged was cuwmitied within the ter ritory, and against tne laws and citizens of the State of New York, and is one that comes clear ly within the competency of ber tribunals. {i dues not, therefure, preseat an occasion where, uader the Constitution and laws of the Union, the interpusition called for would be proper, or for which a warrant can be found in the powers with which the Federal Executive is invested. Nur would the circumsiaeces to which you have referred, or the reasons you have urged, justify the exertion of surh a puwer, if it existed. ‘he transaction out of which the question arises, presents the case of a most unjustifiable inva- sion, iu time of peace of a portion of the terri- tory of the United States, by a band of armed men from the adjacent territory of Canada, the torcible capture by them within our own waters and the subsequent destruction of a steambcat, the property of a citizen of the United States, and the murder of one or more American cit ans. [f arrested at the time, the off nders might anquesitonadly have heen dbrueght to jus lice hy the judicial authorities of the State with- in whose acknowledged territory these crimes were committed 5 and their subsequent volunta ry entrance within that territory places them ic | the same situation. ‘The President is nut aware of any principle of international law, or, Indeeu, of reason or justice, which entitles such offend- ers lo impanity before the Jegal tribunals, when coming voluntarily within their independent and undoubied jurisdiction, because they acted in o- yedience tu their superior authorities, or because iheir acts have becume the sabject of diplomatic discussion between the twu Guovernments.— Gaston Rail Road the Legisiatere—not the. 6 bus an entirely new one, re from the eped| cial Joint Committee, to whom the subject bas naturally produced g ion, and whigh bas led to ices. § avail Pio renew to} you the a r shed cunsider- +3 ; FORSYTII.

Eearly in the Session, a Resalution was introbuced by Mr. Barnes, of Edgecomb, calling for an exposition of the affairs of the Literary Fuad--the individuals to whom money has been loaned, the securities, Ye. The resolution was prompily laid on the table, as authorising an impertinent scruti- ny into the private concerns of incividuals. The Literary Board were authorized to lend out thie money, and they are respon- sible to the Legislature for the manner in which the duty was. discharged. Beyond this, the Legislature had nothing to do witn the matter. No one supposed that the Resolution would be heard of again. Bat, a few days ago it wascalled np by the mover, for ae. tion.

The vote in 1886 was 50,536 ;—10 1840, it was 80,805, or an in- crease of 60 per cent, though there is no matettal iecrease of our population. If this be the fact in North Carolina, as it uoques- uionably is, why mey not the same cause have produced the same effect throughout the Union, particularly in (hose States whose population bas inereased ? But agai: the State of New Hampshire, where the Van Burenites had is all their Own way, gave a larger vote, in proportion to the number of inbabitants, than any oth- er State in the Union. In New Jersey also, the five Van Buren counties gave one vole to every 5 58-100 inhabitanis; whilst the thirteen Whig coun- lies gave One vote to every 6 2-100 inhabi- tants. ‘These facts show, that if frauds were com- mitted, end spurious vates received, they were received by the Van Buren party them- s6iver, But this incessant attempt to argue the people into the belief of monstrous frauds bas a bad effect upon the public morals. It 1s calculated to familiarize men’s minds with such things, and thereby to break down their own bonesty of purpose, not less than to destroy their confidence in the validity of this momentous expression of the people’s will. If facts can be produced showing fraud, out with them; let us have the eve dence, and a prompt punishment of the of- feoder. But argument oaly to prove fraud, 448 dangerous, is base, is fraud itself — Fay- etleville Observer. Correspondence of the JVational Intelligencer. New Yorks, Janoary 8. Already preparations are making io this quer- ter to visit Washington on the 4th of March. Parties and Companies are in a state of organi- zation. {tis worthy of remark, however, that bat few of the many coming, so fer as-I know, come with an appetite for office. Families are coming often—men, women, end children—not, then, the ravenous. raging crew that beset Gen. Jackson in 1829. Indeed, so far ag our city is concerned, it is worthy of remark, again, that so few are in pursuit of its great aod so-supposed lactative office. The competition is very limi ted, and public opinion so concentrates upon one or \Wo of the candidates that a selection will not be so embarrassing as imagined. The revival of business takes a great many from the field of competition, and Gov. Seward long ago sup- plied the most pressing. {am sure, then, nei- ther our State nor our sity will throw obstacles in the way of Gen. Harrison's ease, or embar- rass him ip bis efforts to serve his coontry as well as to befriend his party. What has been said of Gen. Van Rensselaer’s wanting the col- lectorsbip of this port is a]] idle talk. So far as I kaow, the gallant old soldier asks for nothiag, but, beyond all doubt, Gen. Harrison will pat his compatriot in arms back into the place (the Alban? Post Office) whence Mr. Van Buren re- moved him, Glent worth, the Tobacco Inspector, famous for his conclave with Messrs. Hoyt, Butler, and Edmonds, bas been removed from office by the Governor. Thus chaffering with them for ‘the Consolate at Havre,” he has lost his tobacco in- Speciorship, itseems. Never was a worse job all around for the parties concerned in it The Reeorder of the city, ia all probability, will be removed. Our mild, and, in private life, in afb respecis, worthy Mayor, has been suffering fr weeks, in daily danger of his life, from an influ- enza, contracted, it is said, by the midnight ex- posore and excilement of the search for * the Glentworth papers,” &c. J will not dwell upon what Mr. Butler and the other parties concerned in that affair have lost, for all can see for them- selves.

Several years ago, as many of oar read- ers will remember, a series of “Lay Ser- mons” appeared in a popular country jour- nal of Pennsylvavia. They were from the pén of the Hon. Charles Miner, author of the ‘Poor Richard’ sketches, and mere writ- ten with snch freedom and simplicity, and inguleated virtuous deeds and moral princi- ples in so attractive a manner, that they be- came widely known and admired through- out the sonntry, These popular lay dis- courses, we May presume, afforded the or- iginal hint for the ‘Short Patent Sermons’ whieh are reported from the lips of Loren- zo Dow, Junior, inthe New York ‘Sunday Mercury.’ No one who opens that enter- taining sheet, can fai! to observe the figure of a ‘powerful preacher,’ leaning over a small box of a pulpit, with open mouth and uplifted hand, ‘laying duwn the law? with all the fervor of a Mawworm. Dow Jr.’s discourses, like those of his-eccentric progenitor, are the most desultory things imaginable ; but there is about them an od- dity, aa originality, that at once atiracis at- tention; something, we know not what, that pleases, we know noifhow. With an occasional redundance that abhors all die- crimination; which compares ull it per- plexes, and illustrates till 1t confounds ; and conceits often strained to the height of 6i- Zarrerié. there are mingled passages con- taining genuine humor, fine pictures of na- ture, touching pathos, and apposite image- ry. The imagination of the preacher, in- deed, isa good blood- mare, and goes well; and her only fault is, that she sees too ma- ny pathe before her — Ip the use of person- ification, ‘Dow Jr’ outvies the Persian. — He seems to be quite aware of this propen- sity. ‘I dont know why it is,’ says he. ‘that | am so apt to petsonify every thing ; but creatores of all shapes and forms are continually dancing in the sun-light of my fancy, and I hail them as they.appear.

CLAY, ON THE PROSPECTIVE PR<S-EMPTION BILL. Wednesday, Jan. 6, 1841. The order of the dsy being the bill to es- tablish a permanent prospective pre-emption system in favor of settlers on the public lands who shall inbabit and cultivate the some and raise a log cabin thereon ; and the question being on the amendment offer- ed by Alr. Prentiss, of Vermont, as a subsu tute fur the whole bill, 4s folllows: ‘* Strike oot all after the enacting claose, and insert the fullo. og: ‘Phat every actual settler on any of the poulic lands to which thedodian title bas been extinguished, except such as are hereinafier reserved, being the head of a family, or €ven tweaty one years of age, who was in possession and a house- keeper, by personal resi- deoce thereon, al the time of the passing of this act, end fur fuer months next preeeding, shall be entitled to a pre-emption ia the purchase of rhe Iand so settled upon, not exceeding one quar- ter seclion, at the minimam price pow establish- ea by law” Mr. Clay, of Kentucky,rose and address- ed the Senate nearly as follows : The amendment now offered by my friend from Vermont, by drawing a line be- tween the legislation heretofore pursued with relation to the pre-emptions, and the new, consprehensive, and interminable leg- islation proposed by the present bill, opens the wole question for discussion; and [a vail myself of the opportunity thus efforded, tu present to the Senate some of the gener- al views I bave taken of this subject, and |] invite, in the outset, the serious, and, } would say, the solemn atttention of the Sen- ate to the bili before it. Before, however, ] proceeed to examine its provisions, allow me, in passing, to notice a most novel and surprising doctrine advanced yesterday by the Senator from New York ; (Mr Wright; ) not that | purpose to discuss, at this time, the position be assumed, but that ] may Lere enter my public protest against it, lest should | remain silent, it might be thought by any that I yield my assentto it. The Senator’s position is, that it is competent to a State, under the Constitution, to admit an unaturalized foreigner to vote in our elec- tions. I wage no war against foreigners. ] respect them when their character entitles them to respect. I well knew especially the value of the German yeomanry; a better set of husbandmen does not exist on the face of the earth , honest, industrious, econ- omical, admirable judges of the soil, the bes judges of lanu in all the country, de- votedly attached to their Tamilies—that 1s the character of cur German population as I bave become acquainted with it in my own immediate neighborbood. Iwill not now stop to spesk of the character of the gallant Insh whose virtues, and, | wilt add whose defects of character (the virtues far overbalancing the defects) are so well known thronghout the world. | am not the enemy of foreigners: but the opinion expressed by the Lonorable Senator from New York is one of immense practical importance ; for, if lL am-not greatly asinformed Presi- dent Van Buren owes the vote of one State of thie Confederacy, | mean the State of f)- lrnois, to the fact of unnaturalized foreigners voting in our late electron, and casting their votes fur him ‘J will not, however. enter on that subject, and I have adverted to it now, merely that ne conclusion may be Crawo from my silence that | approve or tolerate the doctrine advanced by the Sena- tor from New York. I here publicly express an opinion decidedly opposite. I think tbat the exercise of the election franchise always implies citizenship, though citizenship does not imply the right to the exercise of the clective franchise. 1 hold that a voter, whose voice may effect or change the entire policy of the country, may alter or sabvert the Constitution and laws of the country, is a competent pail of the political power of the country. I hold that the power over the subject of naturalization bas been con- fided by the Constitution exclusively to the General Government, and that no State ean constitutionally exercise that power; and \neref.re no State can confer those privileg- es and immunities, or grant those rights which proceed from naturalization. ‘This is my Opinion, and | advance it here merely a3 a counter project to that expressed by the Senator from New York When a for- cigner has once heen naturalized, | regard him as a brether, as a member of our politi- cal community, and as entitled, with some few constitutional exceptions, to all the rights of native born citizens, and to the pro- tection and defence of the Government at home and abroad; but until he has renoun- ced his allegiance Yo bis foreign Sovereign. and sworo fidelity to our country, | eennot and will not—and | wasutterly amazed to hearthe gentleman from New York express a different opinton—look upon bim as in- corporsted in our society, aad authorized, | laws restricied in point of time, and limited as _ by the exercise of the elective franchise, to| exert an influence in unsettling or changin our entire political policy, whilst ag a cub- | ject ofa foreign Power, he lies under all!

Pre-emp- lion System. We bave now had a land sys- tem in operation for upwards of forty years. Is there any thing in tbe practical effect of this old and long-ted system which should induce us to repudiate it for a new, untried and wild experiment? What bave been iis results? {t commenced, sbuut forty years ago, or a little more, in one of the great Western members of the Confederacy,(the State of Obio,} the settlement of which took place as much astwenty years later than in ihe ease of her sister and neighbor, Ken- tucky. And whet is her population now ? From the returnsof the new census it 1s found to amount to a million and a half of sovls—nearly double that of my own State, although Kentucky had preceeded het by such a great length of time. Aad if we then go to Indiana, a still younger sister in the great family of States, we shall find that she exhibits a population of between six and 7 hundred thousand, nearly equal to that of a State which bas ber predecessor in the estab. lishment of 1adependent State sovereignty by thirty years. I will not go through tbe list. All tbe members of the Senate are donbtless familiar with the retarns of the late census All these great end estonish. ing results, have taken place under that sys- tem which we are now asked to change. Is it wise—is it prudeni—is it statesmanlike, to reject a plan from which have prooceed- ed such glorious fruits, for an untried, and, as | believe, a most hazardous experiment ? What is the history of these pre-emption laws? They arose, | think, in the first in- stance in the case of what is called Symes’ Grant. Jobn Cleves Symes purchased from the General Government a large tract of land between the Great and the Litle Mi- ami Rivers, in Ohio, including the spot where Ciocinnat: now stands. He was un- able to pay for it, but finally made a com- promise with the Governmeni, and took a less amount of and, He had inthe mean time, sold out to numerous sub-purchasers, who, being innocent third parties, and hav ing purchased, 1n good faith, were suppos- ed to have a fair title to pre-emption for im- provements they had made, and the farms they had opened to cuitivation. Congress, accordingly, granted to them a right to pur- chase from the Government the lands they held at the minimom prescribed by law.— Then came the cession of Louisiane, many of the occupants of which had settled on their farms while that Territory oelonged to the Spanish and the French Goveraments under grants freely mace, while others bad entered on their lands with confidence that according to the established usages and cus- toms of the country, donations of land would be obtained, totally unaware of the change of sovereignty which had passed up on the country without consulting them,— The question then arose, what ought, in e- quity to be done in their case? And the American Government came to the conclu- sion, that all who had thus come into pos- session of their land, were equitably entitled to the right of pre-emption, which was ac- cordingly extended to them. <arDe 8 third case—that of the Kabokia, Kaskaskia, and St, Vincent settlers in Illinois and In- diana. These tnkabited French villages were settled in some cases more than a cen. tury ago, and were not drawn within the action of our land system till about 50 years since. ‘These people, having settled under like cireamstances to those in Louisiana, were held ‘:o heve claims equally equitable, and pre-emption was granted to them also. Thus the system stood tii] 1830, under Gen. Jackson’s Administration. Then, for the first time, was introduced an entirely new principle, and it is that whichis con- tained in the substitute for his bili proposed by the Senator from Vermont. There 1s, however, wide difference between what this bill proposes end the practice introduc- ed under Gen. Jackson’s Administration. The pre emption laws, as altered in 1830, a!lowed a right of pre-emption to all settlers on pablic Jands from a specified day, who would assert their rights before the expiration of the law, the operation of which was limited to two years. ‘This new principle cuntinued to be pe- rindically re-enacted till some seven or eight years ago, when it encountered a gallant resis— tance from a friend,* who | regret tu say is not now by my side, but who has passed from this place, end, according to public romor, is destin ed to more useful, if not a higher sphere than even that of a seatin this body, august as it may be. Great fraods and abuses were detected in the execution of the pre emption laws. Spec ulators freely used them. Floats especially, were found to be fraught wiih iniquity. With the efficient aid of my friend, (Mr. Ewing.) we succeeded in arresting, for a time, these pre-emp tion Jaws. We succeeded in putting ao end to special and unlawful privileges. We succeedec in restoring the principle of fair equality in the disposal of the public lands. But those inter- ests, Speculative and others, which are always awake, always wateLful, always on the alert, to get up the pre-emption laws, ander the con- venient and plausible guise of benefiting the poor, made a rally in 1938. We were then told that thirty thousand settlers had entered the Territory of lowa. ‘The Senate was assured that these persons could not be renoved from the pablic domain ; that all military force of the Union would be insofficient to remove them ; and thas, ander a species of moral duresse, you were induced to pass the law of 1838; and it has now been in operation fur two years. But, not contented with all the victories hereiofure achieved, not satisfied with the pre-emption ~ to the theatre on which they were to operate, gentlemen row come forward with anew and bolder and more extensive demand. ‘hey have suddeniy become converts to log cadin doctrine * Understood to be the Hon.

(4 laugh} Were they-rea- dy to go with us in thos restricting the bil] ?>— Were they prepared, by adopting this amend— ment, to shat ovt from the privileges of the bill the rich men—the “ barons”—the owners of manors—the greedy speculator and restrict it to the hardy settler who suught a home for him- self apd children? No, sir no; every man of them voted it down. Let us now pause a moment, and ‘ook a lit tle at the distinctive provisions of the bill.— Heretofore pesos bills bave been retro- spective only : this is, ia its orereae both re- trospective and prospective. Heretofore pre- emption bills have been limited at no time ; this is unlimited iu point of time so long as there re- mains a foot of pablic land for it to operate on. Heretofore pre-emption bills were operative practically only with reference to some new land recently surveyed and brought into the market: this bill is a proclamation to the whole universe, native or foreign, natoralized or onna- turalized, that the moment the Indian tide is extingnished to any portion of the jand held by the United States, they may all rush and take just as mach of it as they please, without even waiting@#r a survey ; and that all other sar- veyed pablic lands of the United States,amvuat- ing to about one hundred and twenty millions of acres, no matier how lung they have been in market, and although they may be purchased at the moderate price of one dollar and a quarter per acre, are to be subject to the right of pre- emption. This, it is obvions, involves a com- plete change in our whole land system ; a tho- rough, radical,entirechange, It opens at once all the public lands, surveyed and unsurveyed, to the operation of a pre emption law. And here let me stop and look for an instant, at what are said to be the sule advaniages gran- ted to the pre-emptor by this bill; a point on which there exists the greatest possible miscon- ception, either on the part of other gentlemen or myself. ‘Ine whole practical difference which this bill is to work in our receipts from the pub- tic domain, is said to be some two or three cents per acre only. Here is a Message of the Presi- dent of the United Siates, sent by him to Con- gress, in December, 1837. ii is, in inany re- specis, a discreet and sensible paper, so far a8 it treats on the subject of the pablic lands. ‘Uhe President liere praises the uld land system as ii deserves. He describes those who enter the public dumain, without title or pretence of title, as “ trespassers,’’ *‘ intruders,” and he recom- taends the passage Of one more pre-emption law, and one only, and after that the adoption of stronger measures for the purpose, (in his own language) ‘‘ of preventing these intrusions.’ — ‘The Senator from Missouri, (Mr. Benton) spoke to us yesterday of the President as being a cap ital pre emptioners now, alihough when he was here as a Senator, he was decidedly opposed to the whole system, and althouyb when he came into office he talked about ** ¢respassers,” and “intruders” on the public lands, and recom- mended us to adopt measures to put a stop to these “‘intrasions” in future. It would seem that the President is an attentive listener to the advice of his friends and always open to convic tion. I mast admit that he has exhibited not a little flexibility in yielding to the suggestions of some of those who have his ear. { will take my position more general. [ think that both the Secretary of the Treasury and the President arkable ease in opening their gentlemen who are strong ion laws, and for the prac be public domain to the Secretary has brought the public lands to three hey were three millions J next year they rose to se The receipts from this source have been subject to great fluctuation ; the past yeara little above three millions. ‘They are now sinking; ard it seems that the more they sink the more he calls out for pre-emption laws ! pre-emption laws! graduation Jaws! to save him from that impending ruip in the administra- tion of the public domain which his system is a- bout toinflict. What, sir, is it possible that any man—what shall I say P—that any man in his senses can be soperbly ridiculous as to suppose that, by redacing the price of the public Jands from a dollar and a quarterto twenty five cents, or, in some instances, [0 50 cenis, you will get more money for them? Yet that is the princi- ple assumed by the Secretary of the Treasury, and it shows the opinion which operates in his mind, and in the minds of the frienda of the graduation and pre-emption laws. | will oot at- tempt to describe the whole of the consequences of this law. One of its effects is to convert the existing cash system intoa crepiT system. Do you not see it? What Is the fact as to the pre- emption laws heretofore granted? They gave the pre-emptioner a credit for two years. The gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Clay) now limits his credit to one year ; but, whether the eredil be one, two or three years, it changes our land system from a sale for cash to a sale for credit. And thas the whole 120 millions of acres of the public domain will all pass under this newly re- vived CREDIT system. And who are they who propose this change ? The very men who will decry all credit, who clamor for hard money, who inveigh against banks, and denounce the credit system as the great source of our woes! and yet here, now, under the name of a pre-emption law, they pro- pose to revive the whole credit system! Can it be doubted that such will be the result of the bill ? Willany man, who can get his land on a ctedit of one or two vears, buy it for cash ?— especially when he can dispuse of his cash ata rate of 18 per cent interest, as prevailed io lie nois and some other new States ? This is a grave feature in this pew experi- ment, aod deserves the serious consideration of the Senate. ‘I’o what will such a sysiem lead ? Have we no experience on this subject ? When you have parted with your land from year to year thas on credit, you will at length have accumulated a mass of debtors, on whose behalf petition after petition will be presented here, and their inability to pay will be most patheti- cally set forth, till at last your compassion will be moved, and you will forgive these poor deb!- ors the entire amount of their debt, and conseo! \o take remuneration for their land in some other furm of advantage to the pablic service. lt is not correct, thongh it has been said and repeated by some gentlemen here, that the sule differeoce effected by the pre-emption law in the price you receive fur the public land is some two or three cents per acre. First, there is tbe dif- ference of six cents which the President states; ave how is this made out? ‘Ihe public land ts (hs pen omega ay, ea grew s- vee ro: |aré gow much Jess dra Hieve with the Sedata sold either a1 auction ond ing to-eoersion, to. vjolem _ eS Aok weal é P Se ey erly. ¥ nt fn trey that the peeple of the potent to protect 4ueir awh. property, f that it cao-be done, by 9 eteady, firm, and oprig administration of the Government. 1 believe that the people of the United States ate capable |’ of protecting their rights against ai! who aseail ‘them, whether, from within or from. without. Agsaredly,if ihe Government cannot protect what js its own, it must be incompetent to protect us and oars. Bat, f ask, how is the six cehls ex cess of sales.over the minimem: prtice,.referred to by the President, made up? [tis got by run- ning an average over the total amount of salea,. ‘both by auction and by private entry. Now, the amount sold at-auetion is not one-foorth, no, | believe, aot one tenth part of the whole. ‘The Secretary takes the auction sales, where the lands brought from $5 to $20 an acre, and spreads that amount of excesses over-the temaining nine- tenths of the total amount.soldby-privaie entry, and then he makes an at bcanc draws the inference that the whole gain in selling the public lands in the established customary meth- od over what they bring onder the pre emption laws, amounts to six cents an acre. Is this fais? Bot even this amount of six cents, onder a prop- er administration of the system would coves the whole expense of survey and sale. But is that al} 2 Yoo are to add two years’interest on the minimum price, which on a credit of two years, amounts to fifteen cents. If one year’s credit alone is given, it will beseven and a half cents, which, added to six cents makes thirteen and a half cents on every acre of the public domain, which, would be gained by the cyntiouance of the old system. But more. This bill amounts to a virtual re— peal of the auction system. “That system ap- plies only to new lands recently brought into market. Butof what avail is an auction if you proclaim to the whole world that they may get the land at minimom price, if they will only come «@. settle on it, and that before survey ? The entire existing system is superseded by the introduction of this ‘ wooden horse,” with all the means of injory with whieh it is franght, I have now described, but not with all that force in which the circumstances of the case would warrant me, the difference between the old and long-established land system of this coun- try and the new and fearful experiment now proposed. Yon must have seen that the change is thorough and radical. Now TI put it to the Administration Senators in this body—to their candor—to their patriotism—to their sense of justice—is it right, on the close of the adminis- tration of a dismissed Ministry, to introduce a new and totally different policy in regard to one of the greatest interests of the country? Is it right, is it fair, that the policy of the existing Administration now passing ont of power, shall be made to lap over on the new Administration, without consulting them or paying the least re- gard to their judgement in the matter! The progress of the administration of the American Goveroment has developed in the practical oper- ation of our system a new feature, and one of the most profoand impo:tance. A different po- litical phenomenon takes place here from any thing which exists in Europe. In European constitutional Governments, when a Ministry is dismissed or goes out of office,the King or Queen, as the case mry be, yields to the change of sen- liment, and comes round with the nation. . Bat here,an Administration may be dismissed, and still remain four months in power.— What, in sach a case, is it theirduty todo? TI will tell gentlemen what I would do in the Jike circum- stances. J would institute no new measures of policy. 1 would simply keep the political ma chine in motion. I would grease the wheels and repair and preserve all its parts in a state of pre- paration for the performance of those high duties for which the whole was constructed ; but | wou'd attempt nothing new in the permanent policy of the country, foreign or domestic. By such a moderate course alone, can the evils of the anomaly to which | have adverted be pre— vented. I would not ask gentlemen to deny themselves a fair exercise of the Executive pat- renage from now ull the 4th of March next, 1 do not ask them to do what-was dune when Mr. Adams was expelled from the Presidency—] should say, lost his election. What did they du thea? The Senate refused to pass on im- portant Executive nominations till after the 4th of March, and then several of them were with- drawn, and substitutes sent in by the new Presi- dent. ‘I'he Senate refased him the constitation- al exercise of his official right from the time of his lost election till he went out of office. This I do not ask. I dare to say Gen. Harri- son, when he comes, will look at those whom he finds in office, and, if be finds that they sre hon- est and capable and faithful, that they have not been noisy ang forward politicians, nor brooght their official influence in conflict with the free- dom of elections,(if any such there be,) [a langh.] I hope be will Jet them stand (though J fear there wiil be but few) as monoments of the Jib- erality of a Whig Administration, acting oa pa- triotic p.inciples. [Sensation and remarks cf ‘That's fair.”) But if gentlemen expect that Geueral Harrison, because they choose to rush on and make appointments, with a view to thwart his administration, wil] when he comes here, fear to do his duty, either they or | have mistaken the man. Gen Harrison means to be the Pres- ident on the 4th of March next, which his fel- low citizens have elected him tobe. And no pre- mature bill, no stretching out of the policy of this into the next administration, is going to restrain him from luoking a! those in office, and deciding fo1 himself whether they possess the requisite qualifications for the discharge of their official duty. Bat, 1o come back. [ put it to gentlemen whether it is right and fair to make this great change in the land system of the covatry at such a time? Woold you like us to do it it conditions were reversed ? But there are other considerations which ad- monish us against legislating on this subject at the present time. We have not officially re- ceived the results of the census for the last ten years; we cannot, therefore see whether the pew States have filled up as rapidly as we could wish. Let us first see what is the num- ber of their population ; so that we msy judge whether any further stimulant is needed to quick- en the rate at which their numbers increase. | know, indeed, that the result will show directly the contrary. From tables which I caused to be carefully consrructed nine years ago, tt Is shown that the population of the new Sates in- creases at a rate vastly over that of the old. Take a single example. ‘The popolation of IIli- nois doubles itself in six years. What, then ts the groand for the adoption of this new system ? Does it consist in some notions of charity to the poor? J have formerly adverted te that subject, Where do the gentlemen get their right to set up elemosionary laws for the tenefit of the poor- er portions of the commonity? Bot if they have, what will be the operation of the system in this reepect ?

Secari- ty—absolute aunt lan ~has_ been one of the highest blessings in the ge -States. Bat are you sore that this will contiqne case under your new.pre-emption la I conceive how it will work. Imagine that a new district of rich and choice ‘and bad just been thrown open. The Iodian title has been extin- guished, bat the fresh and fertile lands-bave not yet been sarveyed. They are open, however, to the operation of this bill ; and, in the course of a few weeks, may become worth from fifteen to twenty dollars per acre. You proclaim to.all who come rushing in torrents upon the new ac- quisition, crowding, contending, scrambling for the fairest spots and the best situgtions, that they shall have a pre-emption. What scene of bloodshed, must naturally ensue. When 2 tbe management of its public domain, proclai aod seizes on it shall have it, who can calculate, whocan conceive the confusion, disorder, and mischief which must ensue? Who can esti- mate the effects of the broard foundations that will be laid for uncertainty, controversy, aad lit- igation in land titles? Again, this must work a vast increase of the Execotive power; forall disputed pre-emption rights which, according to the cautious policy of Virginia, were referred to the decistun of the Judiciary by caveat. or ejectment, or bill in chancery, are now uliimately cast on the Execu- tive of the United States ; for the bill provides that they shall be settled “ summari:y” and de- finitely by the Register and Receiver of the land district in which the dispute arises, these officers to decide under instructions from the Commissioners of the General Land Office.— So, the dieputaot is pat onder the Register and Receiver ; the Register and Receiver are coder the Commissioner ; the Commissioner is undet the Secretary of the Treasury, aod the Secre tary is under the President. ‘Thus, you add im mensely to the mass of Executive power, by drawing withia its vortex all the disputed claims throogh al] the land districts. And oow, I ask, what right have you—and [ pat the inquiry more especially to that portion of the Senate who have been in the habit of esteeming it as their more peculiar province and duty to guard and defend the Constitution of the U.

And then what a temptation do you not present to public officers so situated ?

But in pursuing this’ admirable plan, it has straugely proved unsuccessful, and we haveruo sadly into the minority—now let us profil by the experiment, and try the reverse of this wise pulicy.

Already are the travellers therein crossing the path of one another. Benton, on his way to Washington, without consultation with Sis party, announces ta Cincinnati, bis desire that Van may be the candidate four years bence. But Mr. Calhoun does the same on bis way from Charleston, and Mr. Buchanan, from Pennsylvania. Each wish- es '0 fozestall public opinion, and each by uniting in a pretended desire to promote what they are most anxious to prevent, may, in the end, bring about the very result they are most anxious to avoid. Meanwhile, Calhoun manifests symptoms of an inten- ton to desert in case be is not the candidate. Benton denounces him, wnile Buchanan, King of Alabama, Nicholas, and others, are doing all they can to checkmate the move- ments of both. In reference to this matter, the Washing {on correspondeont of the Philadelphia Nurth American says: Mr. Calhoun has disconcerted his ‘riends by avowing a determination to give a quali- fied support to Geners] Harrison. He waits for his measures,—for the full digclosure of his policy, before he will commeuce an op- position ; and he promises him a hearty sup- port in case his measures should suit his views. ‘The next gentle Mr. Buchan- an, but he is viewed wa Mr. Benton bas no whatever be may ha terests of the country, he brings forwatd ant rally spurned by bis o that body.

A LITTLE CRAT WITH MY FRIEND OLD YEAR Oo the 3ist of last December, 1840, a- bout eleven o’elock at night, | was prepar- ing to receive a stranger, who had promised to visit me precisely nt 12 o'clock, (mid- night)—whose name | understood to be New Year. When much to my surprise, my friend Old Year just popped in without knocking, to take his last farewell. He wes on the point of taking his departure, be said,'and could not resist the teuptation of bidding me good bye. ‘Sat down, Mr. Old Year,” said Ito the old man, handing him a comfortable chair “Thank you my friend,” said be, * Ive only one bour to stay, and thonght I could not pass it more sgreeably than chatting with you. I don’t find you much altered from when we first met; now a year 3go,”’ continued the old fellow satirically ; very mech the same; quite as full of good seso- lutions, and quite as unhappy.” ‘Mr Old Year,’ said |. somewhat vexed at his calm manner and sneering expression, “1 can tell you, sir, that you have treated me very sbhabbily indeed. You made me a great many promises, none of which have been fulfilled.” ‘“‘] made you promises? J fear you for- get yourself!” “Dido’t you say Mr. Old Year, on the first day of last January, when { was setting in my counting room, meditating on my be happy again in a twelvcemonth; that | shotld see my family more comfortable ?”’ ‘ Very true, very true,’ replied the old fel- low bot all this | promiseé conditionally.

Two Scenes in Richmond, (Va) are thos described by a writer in one of the papers of that city. [They relate to the night in which Fanny [lsster recently appeared in the ‘Thea- tre of that city, and the first briefly describes that scene — ] ‘* She floated about like a fair but very volup- p!uous lovking spirit, and cut her toes hither and thither, and swayed her body to and fro in a way which wasa caution to al! i: fismmable young geutlemen, grayheaded or not. Phe levely creatures wiv graced the scene luaked on enchanted, and made all bright with their smiles ; the vast crowd of men shouted and applauded with their whole might, and the beau tifal dancing woman, giving them an extra flirt or two, which set them uffin a perfect agony of deliebt, made her bow—the curtain droppod— the dear Fanny tapping her.

The papers being in the view of Gov. Seward defective'snd un satisfactory, le inforaied the egent. who served the reqtisition, that the defecis‘might be sufplied, and dwected the Sheriff of Nw York, who beld the men in custody, to no- tify the prisoarrs of the charge, so as to give them en “opportunity of. being heard, be- fore deciding vpon the requisition.” Gov Seward then proceeded to Auborn, and arrived afier fifteen days. In the mean time, Recorder Morris had the mea brought before him apon habeas corpus, and order- od thew to be disehstged from custody, on the ground that “seeording to the testimony before Lim, neither of the prisoners had.com. mitted an offence even against the !aw of Virginia, and that the testimony was not such as ta authorise the detention of the bered, caused meeb excitement at the time. It was proved beforé the Recorder, that the slave was ‘a ship carpenter, and had been engaged at Norfolk in repeiring the schooner on bosrd of which the three pris- oners were hends ; that ofter the schooner sailed, the lave was not to be found; that they (the owners) by express reached the harbor of New York before the schooner artived ; that they went on board the schoon- er and made known to the Captain (a white men) their suspicions that the slave was concesied on boerd.’? Search was accord. ingly made, (the Gaptain siding in it,) and the slave was found concealed among the live oak timber, The prisoners were the only colored men on board, and it was prov- ed by the confession of the slave, that one of them told the slave he was foolish to re- mein in Virginia as he coald get good wages North, and that this suggestion induced bim torun away and secrete himself onboard (he vessel, The slave was carned back to Virginia by his master. On the 301h August following, the Governor of Virginia called the atten- ion of Gov. Seward to the requisition, and desired him to dispose of it wiihout delay. In bos letter he states, — ‘As the demand was founded upon the accusation of an offence peculiatly and Gceply affecting the general interest of the good people of this Commonweaith—re- cognized as felony and severely punished by our laws—and as, if longer delay is per- mitted, the off nders may escape altogether. H trust you will excuse my anxiety for call- 1ng Fou attention to the subject, and asking (hat ya will dispose of a with all conve. Arent promptituse alter the receipt of this letter, and apprise me of the result.” Gov Seward, on the 16:h of September, replies, as the reasoo fur delay, that after his arrival at Albany he learned from the public papers that the prisoners had been discharped by the Recorder, on the ground, as he supposed, that the requisition and afti- davit were deemed ansufiicent, and that he inferred from the silence of the agent who Served the requisition, that the spplication had deen abandoned, or the decision of the Recorder acqsieseed in. He then proceeds to examine the sv ppos- ed defects in the affidavit and requisition, and declines todeliver the supposed fugi- tives to be carried to Virgina for tral, OP the ground thats4he offenge gbarged is not a felony within the meaning of the Con- Btitation.” Gov. Seward, in defence of this ground States, that: ‘* Admitting the affidavit to be sufficient id form and subetance to charge the defenu- ants with the crime of stealing a negro slave froin his masies in Virginia, as defined by | the laws of thet State, yet in my opinion the offence is not within the meaning of the Constitution of the United States. The words emploved in the Constitution, “trea. son, felony or other crime,” are indeed ve. Ty comprehensive. kt has long Leen con- ceded that citizens of the State upon which Re Accompanying {lie Messege of Governor ae “iy me tdi pet aie of wh eiltzeas is under ae it 4 40 suftenter ie citizénd fo be car believe the right to demand and the recipro striction is just is citizens to be tried and condemned in a foreign jurisdiction for acts nat prohibited would virtually €teod the legislation of a eulizerg of another State, and ects which the policy and habits of one State may lead is legislature to pusmish as felony, must be considered of that heinous character in an- others State for certaia purposes, while for all other purposes they. would be regarded as violations of moral law. Jn some of the States of the Union, adul- tery is made a felony; in another the be- ing a father of a illegitimate child is made a crime; ard tn another metriage without license or other formalities is penal. To admit the principle that violations of these anc similar laws, -which are in their char- acter mere municipal regulations adapted to the policy of a partioular community, are ‘felonies” and “crimes”? within the meaning of the Constitution, wauld involve the most serious consequences by imposing obligations which it would be impossible to execute, [1 is evident there must be some limit to the description of “crimes”? meant by the Coustitution; and that which I have applied in this instanee, seems to ma to give full and fair scope to the provision, and at the same time preserve the right of exclu- sive legislation to each State over persons confessedly within its jurisdiction, while it preserves that harmony which is so easen- tial to our mutual interest. The offence charged in the affidavit be- fore me, is pot understood ty be that kind of kidnapping 3 person, by which he was deprived of his liberty or held in duress, or suffered personal @rong or injustice, but is understood to mean the taking of a slave, considered as property, from his owner. If Lam incorrect in this suppos:tion, the vag- ueness and uncertainty of the affidavit muat excuse my error But I think there can be nocontroversy upon this point. I need not inform you, sir, that there is no law of this State which recognizes slavery, nostat- ute which admits that one man can be the property of another, or thatone man can be stolen from another. On the other hand oot Constitution and laws abolish slavery in every form. The act charged in the affidavit, if it had been commitied in this State, would not contravene any statule, | nor 1g it necessary to inform you that the common law, which iste force in this State when not abrogated by statute, does not re- cognize slavery, nor make the act of which the parties are accused tn this case felont- ous Of Criminal. It results from this view of the ject that the offerce charged in the a specified in the requisition, is not a felony nor acrime within the meaning. of the con- stitution; and that waiving all the defects in the affidavit, I cannot surrender the snp- posed fugitives to be carried to Virginia for iial ender the statute of that State. So’ far as my knowledge extends, no State has ever admitted the constitutional obligation to surrender its citizens, to ex- tend beyond the limits I bave mentioned, although demands have been made in cases simalar to the one under consideration. If I euterisined doubis of the jusinessof the views Ihave expressed, I shoald be very unwilling to establish a precedent go full of danger to the personal security of the citi- zens of this te. ie . The Executive of Virginia, unger date of October 4, 1839, acknowledges the re- ceipt of this answer from Gov. Seward, and afer recapitulating the substauce of it, proceeds as fo'lows ; Now, sir, these doctrines are so com. pietely at war with what! understand to be the law of nations governing the inter- course, the rights and obligations of sep- arate and foreign countries, and by conse- quence yet more inconsistent with the | Iriendly and federal relations of these States, as prescribed by a Constitution of govern- the reqaisition og made, are hable to be sur. | rencered a3 wrll ag citizens of the State | making the demand; and it. is further re- | garded as unsettied that the Giscretion of the executive in making the demand ts un- | limited, while the executive upon whom it | is made, has co legal right to refuse com- pliance if the offenca charged is an act o! “treason, felony of otber crime.” within the meaning of the Constitution Can any Slate at its pleasure declare an act to be treason, felony or crime and thas bring it within the constitution provision | confess that such daes not seem to me to be the proper con- structrua of the constitution.

According to the laws of na- ture and of nations, every independent community of people has an undoubted tightto form tor itself a civil society —to construct its own fourm of government—to devise and enact its own system of laws —'0 conduct its internal or municipal reg- ulations tn such manner as may best con- duce to its own happiness and prosperity —and to establish by treaty or otherwise all such polit cal relations and commercial arrangements with other countries as may pot be in conflict with the universal princi- ples of justice, and the rights ef other na- tions, Ii thus becomes a free, independent and sovereign State, and assumes its pro- per station among the great family of oa- tions, Nember the government nor the citizens of any other country can mghily interfere with its municipal regulations in any way. ‘It is an evideut consequence of the liberty and independence of nations, offended Siste, end thefé tried for sfencest scr. angnown to ico tartrate pu th@copstitetional provision 19 question wes 1 {0 recognize and establish tins prinerpie in the mutual, relations of tbe States, as inde- 4 pendent, equal and sovercign communities, As.they could form nd treatirs between thems sélves, it-was necessarily engrafted in the Constitation, { cannot dooht tbat this con- Civil liberty would be very impetfectly secured-in say couniry whose goveroment'was bound to surrender by ils own lawe..e'The tinciple, f adopted, Stete bevond its own territory and over the 7 a <a bring him tojestive and panish him. ought to compel the transgressur to make repara- nally, according to the naivre and circomstan. Stale, to be there brought tojustice.” in sittenaceordance with these views, are thuse ox Posed by a very able and distinguish- volume of his commentaries, page $6. ‘* It has sometimes been made a quesiiva how far one go- vernment was bound by the law of nations, and independent of treaty, iv surrender upon demand fagitives from jusiice, who having cummiited crimes in une country flee io anoiber for shelter. It ts declared by the public jurists that enery State is bound to deny any ayslam to criminals; and upon application and due examjnation of the case, to surrender the fugitive to the foreign State where the crime was committed. The language of the authorities is clear and exphien; and the law and usage of nations rest on the the goveromeot to surrender up fugitives upun demand, afer the civil megiaitate eball have as certained the existence uf reasonable grounds Sor the charge, and sufficient to put the accused upon his trial.” ‘Thus then it ia seen, even io reference to nations not bound by treaty or con- federated by compact, that the usage of surren- deting fogitives from justice is observed and cherished in the most liberal spirit. But the principle is greatly enlarged in ite xpplication to ‘those coun:ries situated near each other, and whose citizens are engaged in constant negotia- tons or frequent intercourse the one with the other. Io such cases the duty of each sovereign to restrain bie subjecis from interfering with those of the other, becomes indispensably neres- sary to secure the blessings of peace. and to a- votd the evils of a constant state of war. Hence Vaitel, page 183, observes, “ The matter is carried stil] forther in states that are more close- ly connected by friendship and good neighbur- hood. Even in cases of ordinary transgres- sions which ace only subjects of civil prosecu— tion, either with a view to the recovery of dam- ages or the infliction of a slight civil punishment the subjects of two neighboring states are recip- rocally obliged to appear before the magistrate of the place where they are accused of baving fail ed in their daty.” * % * *& * ” In the 4th article and 2d section of the Ped- eral Constitation is found the following clause : “A person ip any State with treason, felon e, who shall flee from jusi nother Bate, shall, on authority of the State delivered up io be re- ing jurtsdiction of the 93, the Congress of the Mes pasSed an act providing for the . full and complete execution of this provision of the General Government, by prescribing the form in which the demand should be made, and requiring the surrender accordingly. (See laws of the Usited Siates, by Story, vel. 1, page 284.) ‘Thos the framers of the Federal Con- stiiution intended not only to secure to “ the citizens of each State all privileges and immu- nities of the several States,” but to preserve 4 unimpaired the happy and harmonious relations of all the States by requiring the prompt surrén- der of every person who shall commit a crimi- nal offence in one State, and flee to anvther for Protection, to be removed fur trial and ponish— ment “ tothe State having jurisdiction of the crime.” Bat according to your Excellency's construction of this clause, the terms * treason, felony, or other crime,” although comprehensive enough to embrace all criminal offenders and to reach al) fugitives from justice. mast beso re- sttiewed and interpreted as to include all such of fences as ‘Gare recognized as crimes by the uni- versai laws of all civilized -ountries” ‘Thus the citizens of Pennsylvania avd Ohio may. en- ter the territory of New Yyrk and commu a thousand offences made criminal by yeor.jawe, lo the great annuyance and injury of yoor peuple, but if they happen to be crimes pecaliarly affee- ling the inhabitants of New York, or of a grade or character each oot “ recognized as crimes by the oniversal laws of all civilized countries,” you may in vain demand their surrender.

All the writers upon in ternational law, I believe, concur in the doctrine of Mr. Kent,“ The guilty party cannot be tried and punished by any other juricdiction than the one whose laws have been violated.” And the constitution of the United States expressly de- clares that he shall be delivered ap * to be re- moved to the State having jarisdiction of the crime.” Governor Seward, under date of Oct. 24, 1339, replies to this letter at considerable length and denies what he states to be the position of the Executive of Virginia, viz: that it is the duty of the State upon which a requisition is made, to deliver ap tts citizens when charged with any crime, without reterence to the nature of the offence 5" and in regard to the quotation from Chancellor Kent, he insists apon the whole of the Chancellor's opinion un the subject, a part only of which had been given by the Executive of Virginia. He says,— . ‘The Chancellor continues the discnssien by sayiog “theonly difficulty in the absence of positive agreement consists ia drawing the line between the classes of offenees to which the usage of nations does, and to which it dues not apply, inasmuch as it is ondersiood in practice tu apply only to crimes of great atrocity or deep ly affecting the public safety.” In accordance with Chancellor Kent’s exposition are the views presented by other writers of great authority. — Grottus admits that some ages past, the right of demanding fagitive delinquents has not been in. sisted on tr most parts of Europe, except in critmes against the State or those of a very hei- noas nature. As for the lesser faulis, they are connived at on both sides uoless it is otherwise agreed on by some particular treaty. You will permit me here to say with all respect, that it isthe “ usage of nations” as it is “ anderstood in praciiee,” that we are seeking to ascertain, and that the difficulty in the present case is the very difficulty mentioned by Chancellor Keot. ‘The question ander consideration, stated in the language of Chancellor Kent, would be wheth er the crime mentioned in your Teqoisition is a crime of “great atrocity or deeply affecting the public safety.” | mugt respacifally insist that I-gannot aga magistrate and ‘in a case involving the Nberty of ciuzens of this State, admit that to be a crime of this character, which the laws uf this State do nut pronounce tu be even a crime. Let us now inquire what «ould be the conse- qaences of your position. By the laws of this State the following offerites are declared to be misdemeasore, that is, crimes of a grade lower than felony. They are not crimes of “* great airocily or deeply affecting the public safery,” hor are they crimes ‘* punishable with death or imMprisunment io the Siate prison,” so that they would not be subjects of demand under the usa- ges of nations as expounded by Chancellor Kent OF as Tecugnized by laws of this Siate.

In this grant of power, the patriechs of our independence evidently considered it the discharge of a sacred duty; and it is difficult for me to as- sign any good cause why this provision has not been carted into effect, unless it has been prevented by clashing sentiments upon its details, as it cannot be controverted by any that bankrupts, innocent, unfortunate bankrupts, have always existed, upon which such a law would operate; and in my epin- ton, the law should be permanent, and noi lemporary ” ‘ Itie repugnant to every principle of jus- tice to regard baokruptcy as @ pressmption of guilt.

Wright, Beaton, Calhoun, and Buchanan, and the debate was continued on Saturday by Mr. Webster, in reply to Mr. Colboan, and yesterday by Mr. Allen, of Ohio. On the oceasion of Mr Webster's speech op Saturday, the Senate Chamber oss crowded with auditors in every part. Mr. Calbour consumed the first hour or two of the morning in a speech, which we must say was wholly unsaisfectory to us, and from which we were unable to glean one solitary substantial reason, why his propo- sition to cede the pablic lands to States in which they he, ought to be fora moment considered by the Senate. The same gen- tleman denounced the antagonist propos: tion, as unconstitutional and iniquitous, Mr. Webster followed Mr Calhoun, ‘o Bolice merely, as was inferred from ‘le le- nor of bis wtroductory remarks, a few of Ahe points Mr. Calhoun had attempted to establish.

The sud- joined extrac:s op this subject deserve the at- tention of the reader : 9 From the Greensborough Patriot. The Globe.—This is a fine specimen of an American newspaper !—a pretty sort of “government official !—a most censisteat advocate of democracy !—to go abroad into foreign lands and circulate among the sub- jects of European monarchs its foul abuse of American citizens, because they ehgose to exercise their right of suffrage indepen- dently, without taking counsel of tés filthy pages —to impress upon the foes of repub- lican institutions the slanderous idea. that entire communities of our country counten- ance frauds that would disgrace human na- (ure in 118 worst phases. A late letter of the European correspondent of the Natton- al Intelligeneer says : Your recent elections, or yourown aw- ful armies of election trauds, effords rich theme, of whict all the London Tory edi- tors avail themselves for a renewal of their waron the ballot. ‘The Standard of the Sth instant says: “We are titerally deluged with a malir- tude of evidence, proving the truth of all that we have advauced in reference to the abandoned atrocity of American election ; and the many cases that have been proved, and which give scch a deplorable character to Amé@rican institutions are a mere tri- fle in the catalogue of crimes consequent 91 the late election” The Times of the 5:h quotes the Wash- ington Globe amply oo the same head, and la vishes quofations from M. de ‘Tocque- ville’s book respecting the evils of our fre- quent elections, to show the coincidence of his authority with that of the Washington official Take the conclaston of the article of the Times in explanation of its mouve: “What are the conclusions palpably im plied in the foregoing statements of tbe Washington Globe? 1: In the first place, that the ballot asa security of honest voting, is a complete failure. It leads to the perpetration of fraude by voting twice in different names and ‘lre¢- ses, by going to different polling-booths, by personating other people, and ‘in every way that the ingenuity of man can devise.’ “2.

It is not of moch-importance, bat will we remark, however, that if be means to say we do not delong toa certain class of creatures which we will denom- inate modern gentlemen, and to which we have no evidence he does not belong,be has well gneas- ed. But perhaps we bad beter give an outline definition of a modern gentleman. Well, then, he is a thing that dresses fine and flourishes a gold or silver headed cane ; founges about Hotels, drinks “ Jiqnor” and smokes ‘* spanish ;”" swears gracefully and brags of great exploits of himself or big kin 5 practices-to acquire skill with the duelling pistul that he may sometime murder cane of his own class under the pretence of defending his honor ; excuses himself for getting dronk and disturbing quiet people by saying he drank ne- thing but Champaigne ; ruas off and leaves his landlord and tailor “ in the Jarch ; ’* deceives aad marries sume worthy girl ; squanders her proper ‘y and renders her miserable ; and finally puts some county to the truuble of whipping o1 hang- ing bim ; or_some ef bis wife's friends to the ex- pense of burrying him after he has cot his awn throat, We say tothe man of the Republican, that if such creatures aie gentlemen in his opin- ion, what he intended should insulé us we re- ceive as a high compliment. oar Rs [For the Carolina }Watchman.] It was a beaotifol evening in Avtomn ;—the fading tints of evening falling on the fading dra pery of the forest, was well saited to calm the mind to serious contemplation. The village Church bel! iolled for a funera!, and my steps were led to the village burrying ground. When f-arrived at the new made grave, instead of an assembly of mourners,] found only a woman with a beantifal little girl at her side—both sobbing and bathed in tears. In ter arms the woman held a sweet litile child which was allernately looking into the grave and its mother’s face as if enquiring, though teo young to ask, why the grave the coffin and the tears. ‘That mother's son, an interesting boy uf eight or ten years of age, lay before her in his coffin, and a lad was trying to let it down to tts lasi resting’ place. — This scene so tovehing and eloquent ef grief, suggested the following lines on the BURIAL OF TiiE POOR.

The lovely corpse was laid in the grave, And tne clay went over its breast : Mp silence tha! mother turned to leave Her cherish’d son to his rest: For her, no priest was there,o! Heaven to make request. I gazed on the scene with melting thooght, “Vill its simple rites were o'er ; And I placed a stone to mark the spot, ‘That I might see it more.

Gov Swain, whilet at the sar, many years ago; was employad in thissame suit, snd with his usaal industry, had taken great pains to make himself master of its merits. He had received a fee of $500.

There are other complaints of the Carolinian, (that we could notice, if it were worth while. The Resumplion.—The Philidelphia Banks have fully maintained their ground, noiwith- standing a considerable run upon them for a few days. The Banks of Delaware have also re— sumed, and it will be seen that Virginia ca)is upun Maryland to follow. There is scarcely a doubt, we think, that the resumption will take place in both Staies ina few days, and no doubt ‘bat it will be immediately followed by the North Carolioa Banke.

YHE approaching session of Congress. will, duubtiess, be one of great interest. Lt will close up some, at least, of the affairs of Mr. Van Boren’s administration, and osher in the more auspicious dawn of a new and better order of things. The scenes in Congress will probably be exciting. Ou one side we shall see the sirug- gies of an expiring faction, and on the other a triumphant party, armed with the confidenee of the peop, imposing judicious restraints apon the convulsive throes of their opponents, and shield ing their country as far as possible from ihe.dan- gers uf malignant and reckless violence, and en- deavoring to avert the embarragsments which defeated men, stung with disappointment, will seek to thiow in the way ofethé new administra- tion. On the third of March next, 12 o’clock, P.M., Mr. Van Buren's doll siar will vanish, and immediately io its place shall we behold the rising san of Harrison, On the 4th of March, General Harrison, as President of the United Siates, will attend in the Chamber of the House of Representatives to take his oath of office, according to the direc tion of the Constitation. Oa his entrance, as on the entrance of Washington, aod Jefferson, and Madison, the aadience will nut be able to stifle their dispositien to applaud. Having taken his seat on the elevated chair of the Speaker of the Honse of Representatives, the Vice Presi- dent, Mr. Van Buren, (if present,) and the See- retary of the Senate on his right, the Speaker aod Clerk of the House of Representatives on his Jeft, and the Chief Justice of the United States and associate Judges at the Clerk’s table, he will proceed to deliver his iaauggral speech, after which he will receive the oath of office from Mr. Taney, Chief Justice.* He will then retire, and soch huzzas will go up from the multitude around the Capiotl as have never been heard. Sach will be among the interesting incidents which will occupy the columns of the Weekly Madisonian. The paper will contain leading speeches, spirited sketches of the debates, and a summary of the resalts of the proceedings in Congress, torether with the general and politi. cal news of the day. [t will contain the official retorns of the vote in the Electoral Colleges for President, which will be opened in the presence of Congress, and the Inaugural address of the President.

HE unprecedented success which hes re- ‘sulted from the adoption of Brandrethi‘s Pills, durling a period of apwards of $5 years— the namerous and.-extraordinary cures which they have performed opon hundreds of individ- vals whom they have resened from almost inev- itable death, after they have been pronounced incuradle by the most eminent of ‘the faculty— jostify Dr. Brandreth, the proprietor of this egetable Universe! Medicine, in warmly and eonscientious]y recommending it to the especial notice of the public. Dr. Brandreth wishes mankind to consider this truth,that health solely depends on the state of parity in which the blood is kept, every part of the body being supplied daily with new olood from the food consumed, co ently, accord- ing to the purity of that blood, su must the state of the body be more or less healthy. To obtain, therefore, ‘he most direct putifier of the blood, is a question of no little importance to every indi. vidual That Brandreth’s Pills are the most direct pu- tifiers of the blood there will be no devbt when it is considered that they have gaiped their pre. sent very extensive sale by their owa intriosic merit, proved by the numerous ¢ures which they have accomplished in every variety of disease. ‘The peculiar action of these pills is most sar- prising —their operations being more or less pow- erfal, according to the pureness of the circala- ting fluid. On a person in a fair.state of health, who is only custive or slightly billious, they will be scarcely felt—on the contrary, if the com- piaint be ckronic, and the constitution mach de- ranged, the effect generally at first is most pow- erful, anti] the system be freed from some of its most vitiated and targit hamours. This accom- plished, dose eufficient to cause two or three evacuations daily, will soon remove the disease, and the constitation will be restored to a state of health and renewed vigor. The thousands who ase and recommend these pille, is proof positive of their extraordinary and beneficial effect. ‘hey in fact assist nature to do all she can in the curing every form and symptom of the only one disease te which the haman frame is sudject, namely : impurity of the blood or in other words, and impure state of the fluids. These pills do indeed “assist na ture’? to all she can do fur the puiification of th homan body ; yet there are numbers whose cases are so bad, and whose bodies are so mach debili- tated, that all that can reasonably be expected is temporary relief, nevertheless some who have commenced using the Pills under the most try— ing circumstances of bodily affliction, when al- most every other remedy had been altogether anavailing, have been restored to health and happiness by their use. Dr.. Brandreth has to return thanks to a generous and enlightened public for the patronage they have bestowed on him, and he hopes by preparing the medicine, as he has ever done, to merit a continuation of favors. Dr. Brancreth’s office is now kept at the sab- sciiber’s Boot and Shoe store, 6 doors below the Market Main street, Richmond, Va, where the Pills can be obtained at 25 cents per box. gC Agents in the country supplied as usual, DANFORTH BUTRICK.

We commend the following to our read- ers, We extract it from the third series of tbe “Crocm Maker,” or the sayings and doings of Samuex Stick. Ia these putt times, if sou want (o laugh, gentle reader, pray read it, read it. In the course of our morning’s drive, | happened toask him if he interfered much 1n politics when he was in Slickville. No, said he, not now I was once an Assembly man, bat since then J ginn up politics. There is nothin’ so well taken care of as your rights and privileges, sqaire. There are al- ways plenty of chape volnnteerin’ to do that, out of pure regard for you, ready to lay down their lives to fight your cause, or their fortins if they had any, either. No; Ihave given that up. Clock-makin’ is a better trade by half. Dear, dear, I shali never forget the day | was elected; [ felt two incbes teller, and about a little (he big- gest man in all Slickwille. I knew so much was expected of me, | could’at sleep s-iry in’ to make speeches; and when | was in the shop | spiled half my work by not hav- in? my mindon it. Save your country, says one; save it from ruin; cut down salaries. | intend to, says 1. Watch the officials, says anotber ; they are the biggest rogues we have. It don’t convene with liberty that public servants should be the masters of the public. I quite concur with you, says I, Reduce Lawyers’ fees, says some ; they sre eatin’ up the country like locusts. Jist so, says I. A bounty on wheat, says the farmer for your life. Would you tax the mechanic to enrich the agriculturist ? says the mana- facturer, Make a law a gin’ thistles, says one; a regulator about temperance, says another; we have a right to drink if we please, says a third Don’t legislate too much, says a fourth— its the curse of the State; and soon withouteend. I was fair- ly bothered, for no two thought al:ke, and there was no pleasin’ no body. Then ev ery man that voted for me wanted some fa- vor or other, and there was ao boitom to the obligation. I was most squashed to death witb the weight of my cares, and they were so hesvy. At last the great day came, and the Gov- ernor and Senate and Representatives al! walked in procession, and the artillery fired and the band of the caravan of wild beasts was hired to play for us, and we organized in due form, and the Governor’s message was read. I must say the day was the hup- piest one of my life. I felt full of diguity and hopor, and was filled with visions of glory to come. Well, save | to myself, the game is now to play in real airnest. and no mistake; what card shall | play? The presidential chair and the highest posts is} open to me, in common with otfier citizens. What is to prevent me 8 commin’ in by bon- ors, or 1f J have good luck, by the odd trick. What shall Plead off with? 1 laid awske all night considetia® of it,a rollin’ and a tossin’ over, like eramp in the stomach, nol knowin’ what todo, at last | got an idea.

Have I freedom of speech, sir, or have | not; or is that last rag of liberty torn from the mast of the constitution too? 1 stand stock still awatin’ for your answer, sir. Oh, sartein, said he, sarlain; you may talk forever, if you like; go on, sir, only no men doubls your proposition. We a lie, sir, aid J, ts a lie wsit—O-der!—Order !— chair! chair! sayssome.

Weare not free; we are siaves; one half of us ts tyrants—unre- Morseless, onfeelin,’ ovesbearin? tyrants and vile usurpers ; and the other half slaves ; abject, miserable, degraded slaver.—The first arguement advanced sir, is this—and the cold ia my. nose began to tickle. uckle, uckle, ull Jcoulan’t hold aay longer, aud let goa sneeze that almost brok= the winders out.

Yoo could’nt treat them wus if they was nasty, dirty, dispisable oiggars ; and yet you boast of your glori- ous constitvtion. Will any member answer me this? Have they blood in their veins? —and if they bave, it must be free blood ; and if free, it must boil. (Tickle tickle goes my nose agin, and | had to stop to sarch for my nose-rag.) The honorable gentle- man, says some feller or another, for most on ’em were strangers to me, means a blood Vil play. That-woll take the masses and masses is power, for majorities rule.

Martin, of Clarke county, the average of whichewas 741 lbs. We have the pleasure this week of recording the departure for market, of another semple of Kentucky products. Oo Mondey last our atteotion was attracted by a crowd assembled on Cheap-side which we found to be edmiring a lot of fine cattle. On enquiry we found they had been pur- chased for the Cincinnatti market by Mr. James Byns, from Mr. R Allen, of Jesse- mine. They were fatted by Mr. Allan. We estimated their weights ranging from 2500 to 3000 lus. We find them estimated at $500 to 4000 lbs. by Mr. Frnnell of the la- telligencer. As large beeves or even larger may have been and may again be produced, bat fatter ones we do no expect to behold. Every point accessible to the organs of se- cretion seemed to us to be loaded with fat. If (trend Hooper of the Western Farmer,. can find them out, we ask him to take a look at these cattle, they certsinly take the pslm from any thing Kentucky has sent to thet marke: yet.— Kentucky Farmer.

As it will be some days before the Speech of Senator Clay, of Ky.,on the Land ques- tion will be reached in the due course of publication of the Debate upoo that sub- ject, our resders will, we dare say, consid— ering Mr. Clay’s parucular relation to this question, be obliged to us fora brief sketch ! of the course of his remarks upon some of the chief topics which he brought into re- view. Amongst other ponts in his speech, the following were successively touched upon : Mr. Clay, quieted all apprehensions of an application of the principle of distribu- tion of the land fund to the imposition of tates for the purpose of subsequent division among the States The tax power and the land power (he a:gued) staad or totally dif- fereot ground. Congress is invested with power ‘to lay and collegt taxes, duties, 1m- posts, and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defence and gener- all wellfare of the United States.” The purposes of the revenue thus derived are specifically defioed ; and vistribulion is not among the specified purposes. Congress, therefore, cannot constitationally impose taxes for distribntion. As to the phrase ‘general welfare,’ Mr. C. said it was now perfectly settled that that conveyed no pow- er, but, simply designated the object of the revenue Jt was otherwise with tbe land power. Congress was empowered to * Gis- pose of? the tertitory or other property of tha United States. The grant was anqnali- ficd, and without restriction, There was one view which Mr. C. pre- sented and dwelt upon with powerful effect. Power, in this country, be said, was divided between the State Governments and the General Government. This complex ma- chinery acted upon the same people. In administering 1t, each of these two agents of the people, within its sphere, should so exercise its trust as to do the most good and the least barm to the People. Now, the States had no power to lay any im- post or duties. But revenue was easiest cotfgcted in that form of assessment. No e can tax luxunes ; the General Gov- Ought we not then to pay the debt (for Mr. C. argued, and, we think, proved that, under the terms of the deeds of cession, it was a debt) which we owe to the States for their distributive share of the publiolands? If we withhold it, wkat is the cons: quence? ‘lake the case, for ex- ample, of Jilinois. Her anoual portion would be abont $101,000, If we pay-that to her, it will relieve the people of that State from $104,000 of direct 4axationa—chiefly land tax—tho most burdensome of all taxes. Ought not the General Government, then, to assign to the States the land fund, and resort to that power which it bas, and which the States have not, to supply the wanis of the Treasury from foreign luxuries. Mr. Clay denied that there ever existed any purpose of assumining State debts. I could not be done. The inequality of the amount of those debts, and the total free- dum of mang of the States from all debi, rendered guch a proposition wholly untena- ablé. Ele cogceived that the payment of a debt which we owed them, was widely dif. ferent from an assumption of fheir debts. He condemned in strong terms the nega- tive proposition introduced at the last ses sion against the assumption. [t was gratu- jfous, wanton, and unnecessary. It had in- jared, beyond all doubt, the credit of the States at a moment when several of them were stroggling underjunexampled difficul- ties, brought upon them in the laudable ef- fort to improve thei respective territories. Mr Clay showed how disadvantageously we now carry on trace with France. Our im ports, according to the last commercial return, exceeded our exports of native pro- duce to France about seventeen millions! We import luxuries, whilst our export of greatest value is araw material. We re- ceive her luxuries free, and she levies a du- ty of twenty franes to the hundred kilo- grammes on cur evtton; that 1s nearly two cents per pound al the present price of cot- ton! Mr. C. said he was friendly to trade with Franee. M was at his instance that a dis- crimination had been introcuced in favor of tae silks of France against those of China. But he wished to see the trade on some fvot- _ing of more reciprocity. lo passing, Mr. Clay pard a high compli- apent-to Louis Philippe. Tle had seen with regret an intimation of donbt as to the va- hdity of Lis title to the throne of France, by a venerable and distinguished country- man of ours. (10 which our immortal friend La-Fayette bore such an eminent part,) by which Louis Foillippe was placed on the throne—after cleven years of subs« quent acquiescence by A'ter the Revolution of 1830. | Ps the glory of the Sfstes and of individuals. ‘The whole cannot stand pure and unblem- ished whilst the parts are contaminated, no more than that tae parts should remain uo ternished whilst the whole should be dis- honored and degraded. On the power of distribution. Mr. C’s argumeut wes unanswefable. fle showed that, by the very tecms of the deeds of ces- sion, in consequence? of a change of the form of goverament upon the edoption of 4he new Constitution, distribution, and no- thing bat distribution. would satisfy the in- tent and purpose of the deeds, The deeds originally contemplated a separate assign- ment to each State, in the form of a credit against its prescribed quota, of its portion of the land fund. By the new Constitution the rule of taxation 1s changed from the States tothe People. The measure’ i ben- fit from the Jand fund was to be in propor- licn to the measure of burden from the im- position of tbe States’ quota. The latter 1s lost, and what remains for Congress to do but to distribute the fund upon just and e- qual rule of Federal numbers? It was to ve a8 common fund. Under a sysiem of distribu:ion # will not cease to be a common fund. One power— one will —will direct, control,-and sdmuinister the estate.- The title and the administration will remain in the hands of the General Government. The division among the States is only one form of distribution. Congress distributes whea it expends itself the mo- ney. If the fund were assigned to another people than those of the United States, it would be a different thing; but the same people receive the bene fi: of the fuod, wheth- er it is used in current expenditure, or 19 dispensed through the intermediate agency of the State Governments. The only ques- tion should be, which form of disbursement achieves the most good ? Passing from the deeds of cession to the clause in the Constitation, Mr.Clav contend. ed that that covered Lovisiana and Florida, & fectly unrestricted. He showed, in passing. that Mr Wright’s sccount of charges against the pubiic do- main was incorrect; that he put in too ma- ny items of debit and left out too many ered- its. Why should the Public Lands be sub- ject to the charge of maintaming our Indi- an relations. If we did not own a foot of public lands, humanity, peace, and policy would prompi us to incur the charges to which those relations subject us, On the other hand, be said, Mr. Wright gives po credit for the sovereighty of Louisiana and Florida ; nove for the receipts at the cus- tom-boases of New Orleans and Mobile; pone for the navigation of the Mississi;— pi—that navigation which, had it not been drawn within the jurisdiction of the Un- ion, might bave gevered the Union Mr. C. showed the tendency, by the pro- posed distribution of the proceeds of the sales of Public Lands, to the preservation of the Union, by attaching the States more firmly to it, not merely by their immediate interest in the measure, but by the convic- tion which it wal) inspire of the prevalence of justice and eqnity in the Councils of the Nation, &. Without pursuing further the train of bis argument, we will say, in a word, that Mr. Clay’s argument appeared to us to be con clusive, bis sentiments just, and bis tone of feeling truly and purely American. THE SEN ATE LAND DEBATE Has ended at last, in the passing, ov a large majority, of the permanent prospec- live pre-emption bill, as originally ed and the bill has now to onde peo of the House of Representatives, The proposition, originally Mr.Calhoun’s, but moved as an amendment to the bill by Mr. Young, proposing @ conditiona) cession of the Public Lands to the States within which they lie, was rejected by a large ma- jority. The amendment moved by Mr. Critten- den, for coupling with the pre emption prin- ciple the distribution of the proceeds of the Public Lands among all the states, in pro- portion to their right of property therern, was negatived by a majority of seven; a majority produced, in part, by tne apprehen- sion on the minds of some Senators that the introduction of that enactment into this bill for pre-emption which they are in favor of on its own merits, and therefore pot will- Ing to connect with any other project. We cannot but hope, however, that the two meas- ures will go hand in band, and that if they ' be made the subject cf dofferent acts, the one will not lag far in the rear of the other, whether 1s pass at this session or at the next. the permanent prospective pre-emtion law way perhaps surprise some of our readers, who are not prepared for what, at first sight, France, Me.

States en by the Cortes American, which Senate on Saturd e PRE EMPTION BILL, Mr. Calhoun said that no one coold doubt that the cession of the Public Domain hy Virginia was too small a ground to put the claim upon. The other and greater sor- renders were not to be passed over in si- lence. The Senators from Kentucky atd had felt this and fled to the Constitation to aid them, and say that the power to dispose of the terrio.y under the Constitution ts relied upon to give the authority. One. Senator (from Kentucky) had contended that texes from customs could not be dis- tributed, and the other—the Senator from Massachusetts—argoed that all revenue could be distributed. ~ Mr. Webster (in his seat) “I have mace no such argument—I laid down no such proposition.” Mr. Calhoun begged the Senator’s par- don, and proceeded by asking if the Sena- tor from Mass believed that Congress had power fo establish a camb hierarchy. Mr. Webster (in his seat) “I'he Consti- tution expressly forbids 11.” If this could not be cone, and other things lke it, Mr. Calboun concluded that there waggto power to distribute the pro- ceeds from the sales of the Public Domain. Mr. C. proceeded in the very excess of vanity to knock down the argumen's of the Senators from Massachusetts and Kentuc- ky.and in ten miruteshe had disposed of all that had been said much to bis own sat- isfaction. Nothing could be said in favor of Distribution not anfounded in fact or in argument, The Cession bill as introduced by him- self was next defended, the arguments a- gainst it being disposed of in another ten minutes, Cession was not a gift only to the rate of thirty-five percent, but he would sooner give al! the Public Domain to the New States than distribute it to all the States incommon. The summary disposal of Mr. Clay’s objections amused all pres- ent, for they were cousidered and disposed of with an tpse dezit. [Mr. Clay, unfortunately, was not io his seat—the great effort made by bim in the Senate being no doubt the cause of indispo- sion. Geiting rid of the land in the most sum- mary way possible was the great argument of Mr. Calhoun As at present disposed of, we should not see the end of it, and the evils of legislation connected with the Land system, were great national evils. Prices should come down. The annual demand of land was not more than 3 000,000 of a- cras. and the supply was immense. There should be Graduation, and Graduation pro- ceeding Pre-emption should not goin ad- vance of surveys Mr. Calhoun consider- ed his own Bill ea remedy for every evil, and with some additional amendments it Massachusetts, Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster # would be perfect. By and by he would have the lands sold for prices as low ag 12 1.2 cents an acre, and what could not he sold at that price he would give away. The New States, in conclusion, Mr Cal- satisfied We must con- e were 30.000 settlers in, and the settlers with If necessary. and uestion, Mr. Calhoun e of bis personal grievances. — He complained of a Senator's remarks in reference to himself, ard was disposed to consider them os personal. The Senator from North Carolina re- plied to him, as he said, from one or two motives—either from enmity to himeelf, or from a desire to become the instrument of gratifying the malignity of another. (mean- ing Mr. Clay, I presume,) who was known to be no friend to him. Me. Calboun made those allusions to the Senrior in an excited tone of voice, and the effect of them upon his owe mind, he ad- mitted, was painfol; but if such were the motives—and be could not carceive any others—hbe would oot condescend to an- swer them.

Now | will not subject you to the danger of prose- cution by stating what is notoriously the character here of this Stevenson, bot I will state some facts about him which are mat- ters of public notoriety everywhere, Iz. He and Glentworth bave been confederates and cronies these two or three years; he resigned the office of Tobacco inspector one year before his term expired on the ex- pres3 condition that Glentworth should be appointed in his stead, and would have held on but for this: in other words he pretend. ed to make way for a personal friend who was professedly a Whig, but really (as after- wards appeared) gave Glentworth some part of his profits in order to retain the cffice in his own hands @ while longer; he went to Ph. ladelpbia under a false name (Jarvis) pro- fessing to be a Whig,and bearing letters from Glentworth, recommending him to the spe- cial confidence of leading Whigs as a broth- er ; under this guise of falsehood, he glean- ed every thing from them that he could, and then came home here and published what he said they had confidentially told nim, but they all swear positively that he most grossly belied and perverted them in all he has suid of them (Whichis worthy of be- hef-the self-confessed liar and spy or those he traduces ?) He did all this, (if his as- sociate, Glentworth, 1s to be believed,) un- der the pretext of aiding Glentworth to se- cure a re-appointment ; th n turned short round, had Glentworth arraigned for felony, and testified aginst him.

DAVIS’ MESSAGE ow raz NORTH ZASTERN BOUNDARY. To the President of the Senate: 1 found amorg the files placed in my hands by my predecessor, resolutions from the States of Maine and Indiana; and, in conformity with the odject of those Staies, I transmit them for the in- furmation and ase of the two Honees. hese resolutions were adopted in regard to the North eastero Boundary, & | may befpermitied in this connexion to add, that I see little prospect of an early adjustment of thie disiorbing matter ; indeed, | fear there is no disposition un the part of Great Britian to bring it to an issue upon tis merits. The terms of the treaty of 1783 are plain and intelligible. and not easily perverted. They make the elevation of land which divides the rivers that flow irto the St. Lawrence froiw those which fall into the Atlantic ocean, the dividing line between the United States and Canada o0 the north. On the east, the treaty provides that the line shall be run from the source of the St. Croix directly north to this highland which so divides these waters, and at the point uf intersection shall be; the northwest angle of Nova Scotia. When we consider the provisions of this treaty, and the known facis, it seems impossibie that any question raising @ doubt can exist. The question is, where does ihe treaty place the northwest angle of Nova Seotio? We know there is a river called the St. Law. rence, having many streams rising in the high- lands soath of it, and flowing into it We know, also, that several rivers sise the other side of these high groonds, and, flowing in a southerly direction, fall into the Atlantic ocean. ‘The existence of these sireama is un- questioned, and that necessarily places beyond all doubt the fact that their soerces must be separated by land hich enovgh to divide them, for such is the law of Nature. We krow, also, that the souree of the St. Croix has been ascertained, and a monoment e- receied by agreement. We know, farther, that from this monument a line bas been traced di- recily north, some forty miles, toa place gear Mars Hill. All that remains, therefore, te be dove, accor— ding (o the treaty, is to continue this bine to the lands that divide the waters owing into the Si. Lawrence from (hose which fall into the Ailan- 1c ocean, and at the end of itis the north west angle of Nova Scotia. {t is impossible to eom- prebend how any geriovs obstacle to the secom- plishment of this con exist.

Salisburv, June 7, 1S39—1f45 WEEKLY MADISONIAN, For the next Session of Congress. : i \HE approaching session of Congress will, doubtless, be one of great interest. It will close up some, al least, of the affairs of Mr Van Bureo’s administration, aod osher in the more auspicious dawn of a new and better order of things. The scenes in Congress will probably be exciting. On oneside we shall see the strug- gles of an expiriog faction, and on the other a triumphant party, armed with the confidence of the peuplgs imposing judicious restraints apun the convulsive throes of their opponents, and sbield log their country as far as possible from the dan- gers of malignant aod reckless vivlence, and en- deavoring to avert the embarressments which defeated men, stung with disappointment, will seek to throw in the way of the new adminiatra- tion. On the third of March next, 12 o'clock, P.M., Mr. Van Buren’s dull sier will vanish, and immediately in its place shall we behold the rising suo of HaRRIson. On the 4th of Maich, General Harrison, as President of the United States, will attend in the Chamber of the House of Representatives to take his oath of office, according to the direc tion of the Constitution. Qo his entrance, as on the entrance of Washington, and Jefferson, and Madison, the audience will nut be eble to stifle their disposition to applaud. Having taken his seat on the elevated chair of the Speaker of the Honse of Representatives, the Vice Presi- dent, Mr. Van Buren, (if present,) and the Sec- retary of the Senate on his right, the Speaker aod Clerk of the House of Represeotativea on his left, and the Chief Justice of the United States aod associate Judges at the Clerk's table, he will proceed to deliver his ineugaral speech, after which he will receive the oath of office from Mr. ‘Taney, Chief Justice* He will then retire, and such huzzas will go up from the multitude around the Capiot] as have never been heard. Such will be among the interesting incidents which will occupy the columns of the Weekly Madisonian. ‘The paper will contain leading speeches, spirited sketches of the debates, and a summary of the results of the proceedings in Congress, together with the general and politi cal news of the day. [ft will contain the official retarns of the vote in the Electoral Colleges for President, which will be opened in the presence vf Congress, and the Inaogoral address of the President. This will include the time compre- hended between the opening of Congress in De- cember, and its adjournment onthe 4th of March Subscription price fur tnis period Firry Cents.

PV BNHE onprecedented success which has re sulted from the adoption of Brandreth's Pills, darling @ period of upwards of 85 years— the numerous and extraordinary cures which they have performed apon hundreds of individ- uals whom they have rescued from almost inev itable death, after they have been pronounced incuradje by the most eminent of the faculty — justity Dr. Brandreth, the proprietor of this Vegetable Universal Medicine, in warmly aod conecientiously recommending it to the especial notice of the public. Dr. Brandreth wishes mankind (to consider this truth,that bealth solely depends on the etate of purity in which the blocd is kept, every part of the body being supplied daily with new olood from the food consumed, consequently, accord- ing to the purity of that blood, su mast the etate of the body be more or lees healthy. ‘To obiain, therefore, :he most direct purifier of the blood, is @ question of vo little importance to every indi vidual ‘That Brandreth’s Pills are the most direct po- tifiers of the blood there will te no doubt when it is considered that they have gained their pre sent very extensive sale by their own intrinsic merit, proved by the numerous eures which they have accomplished in every variety of disease. The peculiar action of these pills is most sar- prising—theis operations being more or less pow- erful, according to the pureness of the cireula- ting fluid. On a person in a fair state of health, who is only custive or slightly billious, they will be scarcely felt—on the contrary, if the com- plaint be ckronic, and the constitution mach de- ranged, the effect generally at first is most pow- erful, ontil the system be freed from some of its most viliated and turgit humours. ‘This accom- plished, dose eufficient to cause two or three evacuations daily, will soon remove the disease, and the constitution will be restored to a state of health and renewed vigor, The thousands who use and recommend these pills, is proof positive of their extraordinary and beneficial effect. ‘hey in fact assist nature to do all she san in the caring every form and symptom of the only one disease to which the human frame ie sudject, namely: impurity of the blood or in other words, and impure state of the fluids. These pills do indeed “ assist na ture’? to all she can do for the purification of th human body ; yet there are numbers whose cases are so bad, and whose bodies are so much debili tated, that all that can reasonably be expected is temporary relief, nevertheless some who have commenced using the Pills under the most try- ing circumstances of bodily affliction, when al- most every other remedy had been altogether unavailing, have been restored to health and happiness by their ase. Dr. Brandreth has to return thanks to a generous and enlightened public for the patronage they have bestowed on him, and he hopes by preparing the medicine, as he has ever done, to merit a continuation of favors. Dr. Brandreth’s office is now kept at the sub- sciiber’s Boot and Shoe store, 6 doors below the Market Maio street, Richmond, Va, where the Pills can be obtained at 25 cents per box. fi Ageuis in the country supplied as usual, DANFORTH BUTRICK.

From-the National Intelligencer.

The effect of postponing any activa next Congress until the day fixed by thé n- stitution fur their assembling (the first Mow in December) will be to protong administralion twelve or eigh its constitutional termination ; for it would take that time, counting from the 4tb of March, to mature in Coogress any important measure.— ‘The continoation of Mr. Van Buren’s adminis~ tration, Sub. Treasury and all! An exactiuo of specie paymenis, aud a still grealer exaciion on the Ist of Joly next, at a moment when the Banks are struggling to resuine and maintain resumption of specie payments! Tinese are sume of the inevitable consequences of a recess of Congress for nine months. Instead of this, the people want new measures, which shall pro- vide for their welfare, aod which shall look doth to the Government and from the Government to them. ‘Their will in this respeet can vuly be accomplished by an Extra Sessivn af Congress. To oppose an Extra Session, ander these circum- stances, is virtually to maintain that all weasores of relief to the People, are to be postpoued for some fifteen or eighteen montks ; that Is to say, pat off, until a large part of the term of the ad- ministration, which was to mature and adopt them, has passed away. But, if the view of the question of an Extra Sesssion were restricted to the condition of the Government alone, without regard to the wants and good of the people, ao affirmative decision of it would be inevitable. ‘here is now, incontes tably, a deficient revenue. © During the wext or- dinary Session of Congress, five millions more of this deficient revenue will be abstracted by the operation of the Compromise act, one half of which amount goes eff on the Sst of Decem- ber of this year. Suppose Congress not to meet until the first Monday of that wonth, how Is It possible to provide in season for this additional deficiency 2? How, we repeat and give reason- able notice to the merchants to regulate their importation ? But, if the people had not decided in favor of an Exira Session, and if the condition of the Government did not require it,our oppunents have resolved, by their course euteg the present Ses. sion, to render it inevitable. ‘They seem deter— mined to leave every thing in the state of the greatest disorder and confusion. ‘They have not taade, and refuse to make, any provision fur the deficit in the Treasury. ‘heir financial scheme dues not go beyond the issue of due bills or T'rea- “sury Notes, to supply present necessities. These, they think, will relieve them, although they know that the charge which they will make up on the two last quarters of the year must greatly embarrass the new Administration. In one branch of Congress,curing the two months which have expired of this Session, scarcely any thing has been done; whilst in the viher, four weeks have been spent of the most precious time of the Session in passing » pre-emption law, though there is one already in existence. We feel fortified in the conviction of the in- dispensable necessity of an Extra Session ef Con- gress by the repagnance with which our good friends of the present Administration party re- gard it. They appear to be greatly grieved and shocked by the idea of it. Without it, they koow their measures, their implements. their in struments, will continue to operate. With it, they see the prospect of the establishment of those salutary measures of relief, of reform, and of economy, which the wants of the People de- mand, and the will of the people has decreed. Some, who have not welt reflected upon the subject, seem to apprehend that as Mr V. Buren had, eatly in his term, an abortive Exira Session oow may prove injurious to the Administration of Gen. Harrison. Bat, fur what purpose was his Extra Sussion called ? Was it to relieve the People ? No such thing. ‘hat purpose was expressly repudiated.

Harrison’s Extra Session (should he sum- mon one) will be convened fo: the benefit and fur the interests both of the People and of the Go- vernment.

We speak, of course, for ourselves only, and with due deference to the opinions of such as may differ from os upon this quesuon. From the National Inlelligencer. THE PHILADELPHIA BANKS. Our worst apprehensions of consequences from the forced resumption of specie payments by the Banks of Philadelphia, before they were in a state to justify the measure, have been realized. Not only the Bank of the United Siates has been obliged again to suspend specie payments, bat the other Banks of Philadelphia bave been compelled to fullow suit. It can hardly be ex- pected, ander such circumstances, that the Banks of Maryland and Virginia will be able to hold on ; so that the suspension of specie puy- menis in all Baoks south of New York, it is probable, will again become general. An effort (most Jaudable for its honesty, it must be acknowledged) bas been made by the Philadelphia Banks to régain and ruaintain their footing on the specie level; the Bank of the U- nited States especially having acted with a good faith aud steadfastness of purpose which enitilles its misfurtane to respeet. ‘‘ It is the general sen timent,’’ says the Pensylvanian, a leading organ of the present- admipietration, ‘* whatever aif- ferences of opinion may exist in other re- spects, that the Banks, in the very face of an almost overwhelming panic, have made a mau- ful and highly commendable effort to discharge their obligations to the Public.” {0 this opin- ion, it seems to us, there must be a general con- currence. ‘The effort, however, has ven in vain. Six millions of dollars bad the Bank of the United States, single hundred, counted out in sa‘isfac— tion of the demands accomulated against it from allquasters; and still the demands poured in upon it. We are not sufficiently acquainted with the particulars cf the Understanding exist- ing, in view of resumption, between the Banks of Philadelphia and the Biati&emeand Bankers of of New York, Bosfon, &c., to say how far it may have beea observed in good faith by the lat- ter; bot it looks, at this distance, as thuogh the Philadelphia Banks had been over-reached in | the affair of resawption; by which we mean bas served to modify sumewhat our first upioion | in regard to it) we have arrived at the conclu- | sion that the question of an Extra Session was | In effect decided by the people in November last, | broken to their hope. ‘Ihe Philadelphia Ga- when they decided by a mejority of a hundred | zetie, of Friday, indeed intimates 2s much in and forty-one thousand votes, that there should | announcing the saspensiun. be a change a the Chief Magistrate of the U. | generosity and indulgence of the North and East,”| the resumption, nearly ss much 48 ihe By that decision they determined that | says the Gazette, * so abundantly promised 20d | whole amount of 8;.ecie in the vaults of the there shuuld be a change of adimmisiralion—a | spoken of in case of the resumpiivn of tbe Phil | p change of policy—a change in the measures ot | adelphia Banks, and espectally of the United | ° Vhey determined that Mr, Van, Buren's administration should cease on the 4ih | of March next, and that General Earrison $s ad- | institution between five and siz millions of amoonted oa the 1 ministration should begin on thatday. ‘Pocarry dollars in specie since the 15th cf last month, it $5,429,122, and yet the runon her was that they had been indaced to believe in promises of aid and professions of forbearance which have not been kept, or, if kept to their ear, have been “ The co Operative States Baok of this Commonwealth, having al- ready drawn lo New York from the latter =| The Mr. V.

Of the en right of the New York and Es6teri holders of the paper and eredits of the Bank of the United States to send them on to Philadelphia, and de- mand payment for them, we make po doabt.— The question which occurs to gut wind is, whether this great activity in extracting from the Bank all its specie was gftirely conforma- ble to the expectations whichMibe Bauk of the United States was led to pttain, and apon which it was induced to regime specie payments when it did? Be that as it@imy, however, if any individoal engaged in busing@e had, under simi- lar circumstances, made s an effort and sac- tifice as the Philadelphia nks have done to resume payment after bei tm pend, he would, instead gi the yells of vindictive ad Vege: of the United States now Mm have attracted, as he would have deserved, Ye geneal sympathy. For ourselves, apart frof eonsiderations con— nected with the buisiness af@ the currency of the. country, which, howevet, are not to be wholly disregarded in the pfe we cannot bat feel for the m novent stockholders in thes tions, whose property is t under the influence of a series 0 cumstances, every one of which is its origin to mal-administration io Government. Had the Executive o Sai ted States not transgressed iis rightful province in undertaking to © manage thy currency,” afterwards set at defience the effort of Congress to regain possession of its constitutional aathori- ty in this respect, these things would none of them ever have happened: We shall look with a good deal of interest to Harrisburg, where the Legislature of Pennsyl- vatia is now in session, to see what course the State Government will pursne in reference to the Philadelphia Banks. Those Banks are, we understand, upon short notice, liable to a for- feiture of their banking privileges in consequence of their suspension of specie payments. A resu s0 ruinous to the interests of the Common wealt? as well as of a large class of its citizens, wi hardly be permitted either by wisdom or by ha manity, especially when it is borne in mind that the effort lately made by the Philadelphia Banks to sustain the credit of the State may have con- tributed, in no small degree, to the necessity for their suspension. SUSPENSION OF THE PENNSYLVA- NIA BANK OF THE U. STATES. We sincerely hope that the effairs of the Pennsylvania Bank of the United States, will now be wound up, and the balance of its asseta, if any there be, distributed a- mong the stockholders. Whether it ha merited or not, there ia a cloud of suspicion hovering over this insti- tution, which will prevent its being placed on that stable footing which is necessary to its own safety as well as to the safety of the other banking institutions of the coun- try. That the affairs of this institution have been badly managed, seems to be admitted on all sides, but that it was, atthe time of its last resumption of specie payments, in a coadition so critical as would warrant the ferocious and long continued ran which was made upon it, may well be questioned, as it paid out the enormous sum of $6,000- 000 in coin or specie funds before it did suspend. It may be said that the fact of its sus- pending, proved that its condition was “so critical” as to warrant the run. But what would be the fate of almost all the Banks in the country, if the same conduct was pursued towards them? Few, if any, could stand it}for any length of time, as 1s prov- ed by the following faets, stated by the New York Courier and Enquirer : [Pet Int. We need scarcely say, the intelligence that the Bank of the United States had a- gain suspenped specie paymenis, caused considerable sensation in the city yester- cay. To us, it appears, to be an event much to be deplored—not particolarly on accoant of its stockholders or the hold- ers of its rotes—but’on account-of the de- leterious effect it will bave on the banking system generally, and on American public credit abroad, and that, at a moment, when both the Federal Government and the State Governments, have occasion to resort to their credit on no insignificant scale. Of the causes which have led to the sus- pension, we have no doubt the most prom- ipent is, the speculations which have been going on bere, based on the depression of the value of the stock. There is no other way for accounting for the excessive de- mand on the institution for specie. The demand for specie, on which the suspen- sion took place, was made by brokers in New York, at a time when the discount on the paper here was little or nothing more than the expense of sefding onthe notes and bring back the specie ; why then was the speciedemanded? We mach mistake, if there have been any who have teully a stake in the geaera} prosperity of the coun- try, and who have [ent their aid to promote these stock-jobbing asgau!ts on the Bank— we much mistake we say—if they do not have eznse to deplore their conduct, for Bo | Bank 1s safe against such attacks The | Bank has already paic oul in specie, since hands of brokers every raised in ‘* New York and New York Times, ‘not Inim Commerce saying, ‘* Upon @ city, and of the North and suspension will exercise ence, as their funds ha pnt emergency, fortunes of the in- | Banking [ustite- melting away ? ok of England; quite as much as allithe specie held by all the Banks of this State, according to the Comptroller’s report, which et January last only to nor |“ » still COMUiMEU AA OI~ Goran fejey: port demand.

We do it with the hope that the peo- the views and actioas of the new ad ministr tion ia the following extract from the last number of that journal : “ Already, even before the new Admsnistras \ion is invested with power, yes, even befure new President reaches Washington, Wi Clay and J. Q. Adams are uafulding which, with tbe tone of managers, the ij w be pursued by Gen. Harrison z—eind that policy isa high Tariff, and increaged expendi- ‘gres,—taxes, and exiravagane@,. Aur the pur. pose of creating a necessity for taxation, they propese to give away te the States, the whole proceeds of the public fands, eay four or five mi\jioos annually,and themMeake up this amoant, which mast necessarily be ggised for the public expenditares, by faxes, laxe® cn Jhe people. — A‘ler this slep is ouce takemyuhen comes a Na uioaal debt, a National Bank, @m increase uf the Army, Internal linprovemeat, @pd all the old projects and schemes of the T'arti® party at the North.” Alihough this jub of misrepresentation is done with agrace & ease which astenishes some & per- plexes others, yet we have oo fears of its effect. No, even the eredulous will scorn the belief that the policy of Gen. Harrison’s Administrativa is avowedly that of an © high Tariff and increased expenditures, taxes and extravagance ; and that it will eadeavor to create a necessity for taxation, ind bring on a National debt.” It is false—en- lirely fase ; aod the man who can say il, has tface of brass, a conscience like steel, aod a heart sei todoevil. It is traethe Whigs ia Congress prefer the policy of a Tariff on certain articles for purposes of revenue to support Government that of asing the proceeds of the public lands. They cuniend that the proceeds of these lands should be distributed among the States, to be used by them as they choose—either for public schools, internal improvements, or any thing else ; and What the Government should bave other and More enduring sources of revenue, for tts sup- port. ‘he public lands will not last always, and weeriainly as they are destined to exhaustion Will the Nation be compelled ultimately to resort wdirect taxation, laying a Tariff on articles now admitted into the Country duly free, or by nising the Tariff vo articles already taxed. — Under these circumstances, why not then, at voce, ana when the Coantry so mach needs a “itled policy, and the States so much need the tenefit of the public lands, make some permanent urangemen: for support of Government, by lay- ga ‘Tariff, commensurate with her wants, on Sich articles as can well bare it, of which there ve many ? Bat the idea of a Tariff is monstrous to our *eighbor, and others of she clique, and they are ‘parently very much disturbed that the Whigs Slemplate such a measure. But, reader, what ite the arirelts on which it is nropused to lay a Taff: [ere are some of them: “Olives and capers, anchovies and brandy "U3, mace, cluves, nulmegs, precivus stones, tlabaster oroaments, cofdials, perfumery, artfi- tal fluwers, billiard balls, baitledures, shuttle @, coral beads and gold snuff boxes, silver es and ivory headed caves, camels’ hair Mawls, morucco aad pronella shues, plated chaf- dishes, porcelain aud china dioner and tea €'s, gold waiches, evlugne water, Champaigne Bergundy wines, utanges and pine apples, ery, ivery fans, fine Irish linens, pasa Cente tables, gilt buulis, pier looking glass Yermiceliiand maceuron!, Malian marble aad lornamynis, rouge, essences aod courte raeter, chessmen, sweet scented soap, silk siuek- a Bold aad silver thimbles, manile piec- »leoth powder, wax dulls, anda readable: e used by the rich.” ee you pereeive that the cry of Taxes and !

They re- jected the plan submitted to them in 1839, but we cannot think it was because they are opposed to the principles of Common Schools. That plan was objectionable in several of ils paris, oarticularly ag to the distribution of the furids, which was so much to a cerlain amount of terri- tury. The distribation by the amended act is according to the federal popalation, probadly the best plan that could be devised. Will not the intelligent and influeacial of the County, take some pains to remove any prejudices that may exist on this subject in their neighborhoods, and let us commence the enj»yment of the beoefils of this Act? Surely they will. CENSUS—COMMON SCHOOLS. In our last, we noticed a report that the Cen- sus of this Couuty had not been taken correctly, perhaps, by over one thousand; and remarked that if true, it might be the means of depriving us of our proper stare of representation in the Legislature. Siuce then, it bas occurfed to us that the County would suffer in aruther respect [t ig in that of the distribution of the Literary Fund. That Fund is to be distributed among the several Counties of the Sfate in the ratio of their federal population, to be ascertained by the Census next preceding such distribution. Ii then, it is true, that the Census of this County has been returned ten or twelve hendred less than it really is, we will loose no inconsiderable part of the Literary Fund. ‘This matter ough! to be examined into. The Locofoco papers tell us, that since the policy uf the Whig party begins to be developed, the Southern Whigs are taking the alarm and flying off. This is false. ‘There may be some dissatisfied, contracted spirits in the Whig ranks, who seek a reward for the services they ren- der, and whose prospects are not so bright as the more deserving of the Party that in somethings dissent, and seem to “ fly off.” ‘They are none of us. They constitute the wavering and donbt fol, whose eonduct is oo criterion but of their own fertaaes. But there is not a member.of the Whig party who does not enjoy the largest liberty of speech on a!l subjects, and that withowt incurring the : utter condemnation of his associates. Unlike the faction to which these papers belong, they are not bought and sworn to the support of mes sores, right or wrong, because they ate the measures of their leaders, and a failure to do which, brings opon them prosertption and wrath. ‘The Whigs wear no collars; amd no man can point his finger at any one of them and says— “there goes my man.” An impulse for the wellfare and safety of tbeir common Country bronght them together, and elthoogh they may differ in their views as to the best mode of arriv- ing at thei-object, yet we have no fears but they will ultimately accomp'ish ‘mach good to the Coantry—#the prophecies and stratagems of the minions of the Kinderliook Magiciao to the con- rary not withstanding.

The National Intelligencer says:—“ If we may trast romor, the incumbenis of office are re- signing or pYeparing to resigo in considerable nombeis, recommendiog Whigs of their own se- lection. We hope this is not true, but if it should tarn out to be trae, we doubt not all such cases would be among the first instances of just currec- lion by the appointing power. When cases of that kind are found, if any such should be found, it is not unfair to suppose that the trans— action was founded on sume consideration not avowed, and it may be safely predicted that oo- thing wearing the appearance of bargaining of any kiod will receive the sanction either of the oew Executive or the Public.” SCP For infurmaticn cn the subject “of the late suspeasion of specie payments, see copious extracts in another part uf this paper.

There are tov many who, being dissatisfied with their own sphere of fife ; are disposed to say-@ith Pe- ter Poke, when they see tbe rieb, the fash- 1onable, and the gay, apparenly enjoying a supersbundant share of fortunes smiles, ‘I wish] werehe!”? But after they have 8, ort- ed awhile in the sunsbine of prosperity a ‘“‘change comes over thespirit of their dream,” and they sink topenury and want. Justead of repining, let us pursue the ‘‘even tenor of our we and be contented with our own situattOn, and as much of happiness as falls to the Jot of man will be ours. Con- tentment is the talisman that gives to life all its eerms. 1 WISH 1 WERE HE! Being three pages in the Life of Peler Polk ‘I wish | were he! said Peter Polk, as he saw the son of a rich neighbor riding gaily by, while Peter was trudging on foot. Peter at this period was 10 yeers of gage willing. and obliging disposition. But Peter could scarcely look upon the'superior com- forts of those around him, without some- times sighing that bis own fortunes was so humble, ‘ Now,’ thought.Peter, ‘bow delightful it would be for me, instead of trudging three tiles on foot to senool, to ride pleasantly by on such a mice pony. I should not be tired when J got there, and could learn a great deal more.” Witb such thoughts Pe- ter’s head was fi'led as be trudged along. (iow be should love a dear little pony, and bow he could ride it, and a thousand other such childish fancies, unti! he got quite sad and altogether dissatisied witb his lot. ‘Oh, how I do wish I were he !’ exclaim- ed Peter. At the same moment turning a sudden corner in the rvad, he discovered the young gentleman quite dead.

He bad a tolerable share of custow and this had enabled him to farnish two rooms in exceeding comfort- able style against the time be might find a nb to make hisbonescomplete But Rich- ard had far oulstripped hum. He had teken a whole house, and furnished it splendidly was always flush of money. and if any par- ty of pleasure was proposed, Richard would form ove and spend bis cash fieely, while if Peter went, whicl was very rarely, he was compelled to-be exceedingly eeonom- cal, which made ifm appear very meau Peter could not: make out how it was.— Richard did not seem to have so much bu- siness as he had, aod most unquestionably he was not half so attentive. At chanced that Peter had at one time a large order to execute ; and requiring some cash to complete it be proceeded to Rich- ard who advanced hin fifty dollars on bis note. fle executed the order, got paid, and took up his bat to proceed tu Richard to pay bim ‘What a lucky fellow he is, cried Peter, ‘to be able thus to serve an old school fel- low. Oh, 1 wish I were he! Just as be uttered this exclamation a pub lic officer entered and requested Peter to accompany him to the ice office, stating that be had a warrant fofhis apprehension. Peter was thundersiruck. fle had done no one wrong tbat he was aware of. In vain he ask upon what charge he was arrested. The officer was silent, ard thus they pro- ceeded together to the police.— Peter under- derwent a private examination as to where he got a £20 note which was proved to be a coanterfeit and traced tu him. Peter sta- ted of Richard Jones, his friend He was tben more vigorously examined as to bis copnection with that individual, and he stat- ed all he knew, how he had helped bio, and bow be added, ‘I ofieu wished I were he ! ‘Youpg man,’ said the magistrate, ‘] be- reve you. You shall now see the man whose situation you so much envy.” Peter was now conducted along galle- ries and winding staircases to an isolated building which contamed a lung row of cells, Two doors securing one of these were ubdlocked, and Peter confronted its tenant—Richard Jones. He was one of a aang of forgers, ang confessed to lending the identical bill to Peter which was trac- ed him. Peter, a@ be left ihe dreary aboce of crime, thanked God heartily that he was not Richard Jones, and returned to his humble tenement with most heartfelt grat- tude fur all the blessings he possesset. >] wished I were he!’ exclaimed Peter two yvars after the last event. [Lt seemed somebhuw or other that Prier’s experience had gone for nought, and be could not get rid of his wishing. Yet he had perhaps more occasion to indulge in this * wish’ than at ary other furmmer period. ‘The ov- casion was this: Peter bad long been enamored of a very pretty and what was sii!] better, of a very does not acquire too much power, .

It was evi- dent that Ann loved Moggins—there could be no doubt of it. Peter sighed and felt as if he could do no work, and as if he did not care whether he ever worked again or not. At ae early hour he saut ufphis store and wandered outin a resilees spirit deter- aiuned to see the resu!t of the interview. He remembered that Ann’s ‘ehamber window was at the back of the house.— What lover does not know the resting place of his mistress, and invoke blessings on her head—the faint illumination of its window | tells bim she is retiring to sleep, as he be- lieves, under the especial guardianship of her sister angels. house where was situated Ann's chamber window, was a long garden, at bottom of which was @ neat arbor, and Whe mid- die a fis pond, which, in the moonlight, s00ked Ike a sheet of silver. ‘It is very beautiful,’ thought Peter, ‘but it is nothing to me.” Peter esconced himeelf in the arbor, and about half aa hour efterwards he saw cau- tiously entering the garden hie rival. He was highly elated in anticipaiion of his coming haypy interview. ‘I wish I were he,’ sighed Peter, as Mugginos passed him and advanced under the window. ‘Ido wish I were he,’ he again exclaimed, as the three taps were given, Instantly the window was raised, and a voice exclainec—* Is that you.’ * Yes, it is 1, Muggins,’ was the reply. Peter felt as if heaven and earth were anninilated and chaos was come again.— Wheu lo! from the wicdow came no lady; but a sack of flour; with which the bigh- ly scented Mr. Muggins and his very best suit of dress black were literally covered. Before he could get the minute particles from his eyes, three stout fellows issued from the house, se:zed him and hurrying hit along, plunged bim head and ears into the fish pond. ‘There, coxcomb, that is what you de- serve,’ cried a voice which Peter recoguiz- ed to be Ann’s brother's. Muggins did not wait to hold conversa- tion, but scrambled out, like a dog with his tail between his legs and sneaked off in double quick time. Peter was astoniehed. It was inexplicable. He thought he musi be dreaming. He was not the ouly aston- ished person. ‘The ridicalous figure of the retreating Mugginsexcited the risible fa- culties of Aun’s brother to such a cegree that be could not stand but bolding both his sides, reeled into the arbor and deposi- ted bimself iv Peter's lap. | brother had heard the yam v! the gift and had dé venzed He wrote the atte Synge mention a hand as much as possitre Ann's —The result has been told.

An excursion up the river were propos- ed, in which music and dancing were to be the features.

Peter declared that it was false, with a spirit unnsval for him; in the mean (ime he felt that it was true; but he hoped that the other would resent bis words, that he mighthave ihe pleasure of giving lim a good thrashing. The young man voly laughed. *I wish I were he!” sighed Peter, as he left the groop. ‘Fhe next day the young fellow came in- to Peter’s store, amd produced a letter writ ten in a faint womanish looking hand and asked bim triumphantly whether he would ‘belyeve him then. The letter read thus: ‘Dear Mr. Moggins—I have heard of the | | | \ ~ bjm off, and in falling be had fractured his skull and produced instant death.

Self Wade Men — Yoo may take the popu- lation of any State in this Uniun, and select from it the fifty men who are most distin. guished fur talents, or any ciscription of public usefulness and I will answer for it, they are all, every one of them, men whu began the world without a dollar.

The importance of furnishing salt to do- Mestic animals, does not appear-to be sufh- ciently uncerstood. Though all are aware of the avidity with which animale eat it when given thea there are many who scarce- ly sali their animals through the season. Now it ts evident that animals should have it at all times at their command.—They will never eat more than is yood for them, and it rr bealth and comfort, The qu ed in Spaia for 1500 sheep, is twenty five quintals— probably twice the amount the same number usually get in this country ; and this quantity is consamed by them in about Gve months, they gettiag lit- tle in the winter or while journeying to and from their mountain pasture. Lord Somer- ville allowed a ton of sajt to a thousaad sheep, and fuund they consumed the most in the spring and fall, and at these seasons it was probably most useful to them as secu- rity against disease. Of its value for ani- mals in a medica! point of view, the follow- ing fact, stated by the celebrated Curwen, must be deemed decisive : Memerethan two bundred and iges,) apd since | have used salt. | never paid in any one vear over five | pet apnu Where cattle l.. ve access to sheds, troughs be kept for their use.

I got here last evening, jist arter lamp lighting, and took a tun round to most ail the Banks to see if J could find any on ’em open, but | found ’em all lockec up and bright lamps afure the doors, and good sirong broad-shouldered watchmen stand- Ing at their posts with clubs and ratiles jist for all the world as tho’ the Banks was as full of specte payments as ever, and not a mite of difference. I stopt and had a teetle talk with one of these watchmen, and says I, ‘‘stranger, is \here no gitten in here to see folks?” ‘Not to night,’ says he, ‘all the Banks are shet up. ‘How you talk,’ says 1, and so] streak- ed 11 round to Sqmre Biddle’s premises, for I had a notion if | could only git a fair talk with the Squire, | would larn pritty mueb all about the matter, I found the squire to hum, & be was amaz- in glad to see me; and he went right up in- toa room alone, where I found a good warm Lehigh coal fire burning, and a table kivered with papers; and he took one chair and | another, and he went at it straight off. So,’ says I, “Squire, you are all suspended egio, | jaro.’ ‘Yes,’ says he, ‘Major, the folks who wanted hard moneyyhave got all the Banks hed (to give them; and as the Banks can’t conn hard money, and can only git it from the folks who owe them, it turns out that, as the Banks have not got the same power by the law to make folks pay them as fast asthe other folks want it, the pond must run dry for a spell.” ‘But,’ says I, ‘Squire, how on arth is it that things work so that one set of folks keep drawing out the spiggot fester than other folks pour into the bung-hole ?— Thiugs warn’t so in Mr. Adams’ time,’ says I. -Now, howisit?? ‘This set the Squire scratching bis head end thinking,—and to give him time to answer, J took the poker and began pokine up bis Lehigh coal fire, (o see if there was any blaze in it; and to rights says he, ‘Major, what are you poking that fire for?

Now, how hagall this come about?” says J. . ‘Well, says he, ‘Major, Vil tell you. In the first place, when you first entered this room, did’a you find it warm and comfor- table, and a good fire burning ?—didn’t you take that pokor and begin to poke with it? —didu’t I give you acivil bint to let it a- Jone?—didn’t you continue poking and po- king, till at last the fire went oul ?—and aint this room now cold and dark, compar- edto what it was? Now come here’— and he took a cand!o and wentup to the fire place; and says he, ‘There is the coal set,—at aint burnt up.— the fire has only gone out; ican puta little kindling under it. and clap on the blower, andina litle while you will see as br ght and warm a fire as before,—but where is the use of kindling up again, onles folks will see tho folly of poking atif.

The following Appeal, by two Members of the Bar of the State of New York, 's entitled to a place in our paper as aD au- thentic exposition of outrages against the judicial authority which call for universal reprobation : From the Lockport Democral, Fxtra, Feb. 4. TO THE PUBLIC. The undersigned. the counsel of Alexan- der McLeod, now a prisoner in this couaty on a charge of muides—in view of the ve- rv exaggerated and erroneous statements concerning the objects of the attempt to procure his discharge upon vail—and actu- ated by a belief that these statements tend, though they may not be designed to preju- dice the cause of our clieot before the Peo- ple, from whom a jury, in case he is indict- ed, must be obtained, feel called upon to submit to the Public an unvarnished history of the trapsaction. Mr. McLeod was committed to the jail of this county about the 18th of November last. But the miflimus being void on its face, we procured the allowence of a habeas corpus with a view to his discharge Al tbe bearing before Judge Bowen, the Dis- trict Attorney conceded the nullity of the process, but suggested, nevertheless, that the i The _—y adopted. without a dissenting voice. half pagh Lae ofthe Court-house ‘door, and this too 1a al time~of-peste’ and¢-a ‘governthent of trw;- with no other assignable motive than to de- piive an individual of rights which that law, through its own proper officer had conferred. [n the mean time, ag express -bad been despatched to.Buffaloto advise a Mr. Well’s ‘that McLeod was sbout to be discharged, and to procuse a writ whereon he might be again arrested, in an action for the damages arising ftom hia alledged egency in the de- struction of the Caroline. At the re-opea- ing of the meeting in the morning, the mes- senger, having uow returued, announced that he had;accomplished the purpose of his mission ; whereupon he exhibited to the assemoly a capias, at the suit of Wells, with a judge’s order to hold McLeod to bail ia the sum of seven thousaad dollars. This process, sfter being examined by several ia- dividuals and pronounced to be in due form, was put in the hands of one of the sheriff’s deputies, and soon after served. After the Captain of the watch. had for- mally reported the occurrences subsequent to the adjournment, a great variety of mo lions and propositions were made and dis- cussed. Among them was one, whetber the suit commeaced by the capias might not be settled by the plaintiff and defendant ? An effirmajyye answer being given, it was fol- lowed by otion that ‘the bail surrender McLeod immediately.” But it "boing sug- geste), and given the assembly to understand, that one of the bail bad exhibited satisfacto- ry evidences of his willingness to do so, that motion was withdrawn. Whereupon another, that this meeting do not adjourn until a surrender bave been completed,’ was Vari- ous legal questions involving the power of the Judge to recommit, of ibe bail to sur- render, the effect of an unexecuted order for @ prisoner’s discharge, and the requisite for- malities to make a surrender effectual, were mooted, and, after the Judge and District Attorney. (who bad beeo brought up again by a fresh committee,) as well as other to- dividuals. had been heard, were, satisfactory to ne meeting, disposed of. One of the bail has a large amount of property and materials, provided for the construction of the canal locks at this place be shown. pus Judge hac jurisdiction to heer proofs anew, and to recommit if probable cause should To this Mr. McLeod did not object, but desired such an examination as would satisfy all of his innocence, and save bim from a barrassing repetition of arrests —he having several weeks before been ar- rested for the same charge, committed to jail, and final'y discharged on habeas cor- In accordance with this desire, it was suggested that he give bail to appear at the & particularly exposed to serious injur. with hardly a possibility of detection. Dur ng inese agitations he was repeated!y warn’d tbat his property would be injured or destroyed unlees be surrendered Mr.M«I.eod into cus- tody. Feeling the force which the unpar- allefec state of things gave to these admo- nitions, heat length concluded to follow the advice of the meeting. At About half past one o’elock in the afternoon, by a singular coincidence, the same Judge who had been the cause of this great commotion by let- next court competent to try bim, and, if indicted, to have the matter passed upon by a jury of the country. ‘To this Mr. McLe- od readily assented, and the Judge, of his own motion fixed the bail at five thousand dollars; an amount which the undersigned then believed, and now belteve, amply sufti- cient to ensure lus appearance at trial. The prisoner then returned into custody, there to remain until his friends in Canada shoold give en indemnity to some persons residing here to become bis bail. Not be- ing able to effect this, however, as soon as he expected, he determined .to be again brought before the Judge, and there ugder- went another examination. however, for reasons doubtless safisafactory to himself, saw fit to remand him unless he gave the bail before required. He was accordingly remanded. Being ing closely imprisoned, he did not succeed in providing indemnity to bis bail until the 27th ult. when two gentlemen residing in or near Chippewa, Upper Canada, gave Wil- liam Buel and P. C. H. Brotherson, of this county, their bond to save them harmless, and the latter entered into necessary recog- nitions, end an order was made by Judge Bowen discharging Mr. McLeod from im- prisonment. p . This order was not obtained until nearly ‘Bighilal!, and, owing to a rumor that there were persons abort this count commit personal violence iméane be discharged on buil, end owing | pearance of agitation emong-som™ pers here, it was deemed prudent that he should remain inthe jail until the next morning, and then make bis appearance in the day- time, publicly among our eit:zene, Soon after there were appearances of a state of bigh excitement. Bodies of men were seen moving towards the Court-house; droms beat, bugles sounded About nine o’clock a body of men, armed with mus- kets and bayonets, took possession of the ball communicaing with the jal. At mid- might, or later, a cannun, a twelve pounder, having been procured and placed directly opposite Mr. Mc Leod’s cell, was repeaied- ly discharged, demolishing at every peal a portion of the glass inthe Court house win- dows. While these proceedings were going on Was organized in the Court room above. About 12 v’clock at midnizht, committees were appointed to wait upon the Judge who had granted the order, and upon the gentlemen who had become McLeous bal, and to request theie immediate appearance, The Juoge, we understand, deemed it most prudent for him to get out of bis bed and obey the summons. The bail did not ap- pear. One of them being told tbat it had been stated by some of those among the crowd thet if he did not come they would bring him at the point of the bayonet, and believing that this indicated a state of feel- ing which might endanger bis personal safe- ly, he declined going that night but sent word to the assembly that if they would ad- Journ until the next morning he would ap- pear before them. | to below, a meeiing of several hundred men ting Mr. McLeod to bail, announced thata surrender in due form of law had been made Whereupon the assembly formally resolved that its object was accomplished, and then edjonned. In submitting the foregoing detail of facts @ur purpose is notito cast censure upon any one. For, whatever may be oer’own opin- ioes of these transactions, this 1s not the tess them.

For ourselves we not only believe, but have no donbt of Mr McT¥.eod’s entire in- nocence of the charge And itis painful to us to witness the effort now making to procore universal condemnation of him by the public press, and through that by the whole body of the people, without having heard one particle of the evidence on either side Not content with fanning, to his nre- judice; the excitement alrea’y existing on the subject of the Caroline, a portion of the press has recently been gleaning on the oth- er side ofthe river for materials (whether true or false is alike unimportant,) for fur- ther attacks upon this defenceless individ- jualpand that (oo upon subjects having no nexion whatever with the matter with which he ts‘eharged: attacks. the only pos- sible effects of which must be te render 11 more difficu!t than ithas already become, fiud among those who are to be his triets that strict impartiality which the law guar- amties to every one, no matter how slight ; may be the offence for which he may be arraigned, In these circumstances, it seems to us that iC is not only our right, but our duty, to appeal, not to the sympathies, but to the sense of justice of our fellow-citizens, and ask them, until they shall have heard his cause, to suspend their jadgment as to the guilt or innocence of this man, a foreigner. 10 prison, and bese: so recently by a power which places itself above the law, and ar- rargns before it those very officers by whom that law bas declared iis own decree shail be pronovuced In making this appeal to American citizens, whose pride it is to ad- minister to ull even-handed justice, we are confident we shall not appeal in vain. 1].

Harsison, did rot need the ‘information which the sutjoined commu- nication contains to justify their hearty gp- probation of the appoinimest, they are yet much obliged to the respected writer of it forthe means which st affords of making Mr. Badger better known to their readers. National Intelligencer. Messrs Gales §& Seaton: The question has been frequently asked here, within the the last few days, whois George E. Bad ger, the gentleman proposed for the office of Secretary of the Navy? He sa native of Newbdern, in North Carolina. His fa- ther died poor when he wasa smal] boy He possessed fine talents, and his ‘riends aiced him in acquiring an education. He obtained a license to practise the law before he was 21 yeare old. Elis vigorous ‘and discriminate intellect immediately gave him a high rank in the community. fle was, at an early age, elected a Member of the Legislature of North Carolina, but his lim- ued circumstances compelled him at once to abandon politics, because he was poor, and had a widowed mother and two sisters to support. He devated himself to the profession of the law, and acquired a large and lucrative practice. The Legislature, when he wag Yet a very young man, elec- ted him a Ja@ge, and he discharged his du- ues on the bench with great ability and im- partiality, giving entire satisfaction to the profesyon and the people. A sense of du- ty to himself, his mother and sisters, re- quired that be should not remain on the bench ata small sa'ary when his splendid talents and extensive acquiements would command the most lucrative practice. He resigned his seat on the bench, and return- ed to his practice at the bar, D/r. Budger is justly regarded as one of the ablest law- yers inthe United States. He rarely ever speaks longer than one hour oft'any subject, and in that space of time he will do ample justice to bis client, and often demolish a three days’ speech of his adversarv. When that aecomplished scholar and profound ju rist, William Gasion, was at the: bar, Mr. Badger, though a much younger man, was his furmidable rival. It Lhad a cause in any court in the United Stategy 1 would as sooa,xempluy George E. Badger as ary lawyer io America. During the-last war, when the Britigh ir vaded the eastern shore of North Carolina, Governor Hawkins, with a large number of volunteer militia, marched quickly to the cefence of the sea- board In that expedition, George E. Bad- ger, then avout 19 yearsold, volunteered, was appointed by Major General Jones one of his aide, and remained ip.the public ser- vice until the enemy retreated, fook water, and sailee from North Carolina. Mr. Badger, was an active and ardent sepporter of Genaral Jackson fur.the Pees- ideney 5; he was, indecdy the leader of the Jackson party of North Cerolina, and wrote the address containing their political creed prior to the elevation of Gen Jackson to the Presidency.

The Farmei’s Cabinet relates an instance of the most successful farmiia we have heard of for some time. {tis of an old practical, hard- working Farmer, in the neighborhood of Am-— herst, New-Hampshire, who cotamenced the world as 3 day-laboarer, and who, notwiibstand- ing he bas at various times sustained heavy pe- cuniary losses in the investment of bis fuuds,is now worth at least one hundred thousand dol lars. We make the tedlowing «xiract from the article in the Cabinet: ‘* This man, when thirty years of age, by the avails of his industry, added to a smal! leg— acy, was enabled to porchase and pay, in part, for a farm of one hondred and thirty acres of land, one hondred of which was under cultiva tion, but in a very low state. ‘The farm is al- together upland, with a svil composed of loam, clay, and sand, in ihe chief of which the latter preponderates, the former being least considera- ble. When he commenced farming, he adopted a particular system of rotation, to which he has implicitly adbered from that time to the present, which is turty years, and his saccess is the best commetit on the worth of the experiment. His mode was as folluws: having divided his farm into eight Gelds of equal siz’, as near as pussi- ble, three of those fieids were sowed with wheat each year, one with rye, one planted with corn, two In clover, and ove au open fallow, on which corn had been raised the year previous. Que of the two clover fields is kep: for mowing, the other pasture, both of whieh are plougted as soon atter harvest as possible, and prepared for wheat in the fall. All the manure «bich ts made on the farm for one year is bacled in the spring on the field intended for open fallow, which isthen ploughed, and, after one or two cross ploughiogs through the semmer, is also sowed with wheat in the fall. “Fhe field on which the rye is sown, is that from which a crop of wheat hasbeen taken the same year, and which has yielded three crops Cora is planted oo the land from which rye had been taken the year previous, the stubbles uf. which are plough ed dewn in the fall. Clover seed is sown early in the spriog on iwo of the wheat fivids, those which have been most recently manured. By this methud, each field yields three crops of wheat, two of clover, one «frye, and ube of corn, every eight years. Each field, in the mean time, has Jain an open talluw, aod received a heavy dressing of manure, perhaps at an aver- age of fifteen four-horse luads per scre. His crop of wheatis seldom less thao fifteen bun dred ang fifty bashels and his corn Crop annual ly abuut five huvdred bushels—all which grain, at the present low priees, would amoval to mure ihan two thousand dollars anovally, and ai for mer prices, to duable that amoant, and his farm is withal very bighly improved.” THE ELECTRICAL EEL AT THE AD.

Mr. Pickens, from the ‘Committee. on Foreign Affairs, aeked leave to-make a re- port from that committee in relation to the’ correspondence between the Governments of the United States and Great. Brisain in relation to the destsuetion, of the steamboat Caroline during the troubles on ihe Canada frontier io the winter of 1837-8 ; 38 also 4 in relation to the arrest end imprisonment of Alexander McLeod,.a British subject, for being concerned in the destruction ‘of that boat. No objection being made— Mr. Pickene sent in the report: as fol- lows: ; ‘Fhe Committee on Foreign Affairs, to whom referred the Message of.the Presi«; dent, transmitting a correspondence with the British Minieter in relation to the bure- ing of the steamboat Caroline, and the de- mand made for the liberation:of Mr. Alex: ander McLeod, respectfully report: Iv appears that the steamboat ‘Caroline’ was seized and destroyed 10 the month of December, 1837. The committee are 1n- duced to believe that the facts of the case are as follows: The boat was owned by, and in possession of, a citizen of New York. She was cleared from the city of Buffalo, and, or the morning of the 29:b of December, 1837, she left the port of Buf- falo, bound for Schlosser,upon the Ameri¢an side of the Niagara river, aad within the territory of the United States. nal inteation seemed to be to run the boat between Buffalo and Schlosser, or perhaps from Black Rock dam to Schlosser, and, should it seem profiteb!e, it was intended to run ber slso to Navy Island, and touch at Grand Island and Tonawanda. Her own. er was Mr. Wells, said to be a respectable citizen of Buffalo, and ipis obvious his in- \ention in putting up the boat was one of speculation and profit entirely. citement upon that portion of the frontier, at this period, end collected a great maay The origi- The ex- in the neighborhood, some from curiosity, some from idleness, aud others from taking an interest to the unusual and extraordinary collection of adventurous men gathered to- gether al that time on Navy Island. Navy Island was ‘‘nominally” in the British “‘ter- ritory.”” . The owner of the Caroline took advan- tage of these cirtumstances (o make some money with bis boat, by running her asa ferry boatover to Navy Island All these facts appear from testimony regu'arly, taken (see, H. R. Doc No. 302, peges 46 and 39 5th Congress.) and the com- MinceKuet of no legal evidence to coatra- dict them. There is no proof that any arms Or munitions of war were carried in the boat, except, perhaps, one small six-poun- der ticld-piece belgnging to a passenger. — The principal object was to run the boat as a ferry boat from Schlosser, on the Ameri- can eide, to Navy Islard, on the British side. It is believed that even in war, a neutral Power has the right to trade in con- traband articles, subjeet, of course, io seiz- ure and confiscation if taken within the ju- risdiction of either of the contending parties. What is conirabaod of war is not always certain. Treaty stipulations frequently ip- clude some articles, anc exclude othergepe- cognised in the law of nations. ” "Trading in contrab ti¢hes is no. excuse fur in- vading-$@ territory and soil of a neutral independent Power, whose private cit- jay choose to run the hazards of such @ trade. In this instance there were no two foreign Powers engaged in war; but all concerned in the outbreak or excitement within the British jurisdiction claimed to be British subjects, in resistance of the au- sionally,without mittens— does not discharge /thorities of Canada, a province of the Brit- ish empire. Even admitting, then, that the Caroline was engaged in contraband trade, yet it was with citizens who claimed {> be subjects of te sameempire with those who were styled the legitinate officers of the Province, Abstractly speaking, how was a private citizento decide who were right and who wrong in these local dis- putes? And which portion of citizens of the same province must our citizens refuse to have any communication with?) Butthe boal was merely used for one day as a fer- | ry boat, and on the night of the day she commenced running she was seized, wiiile moored atthe wharf in Schlosser,and burnt. Several men were assussinated ; certainly one, who fell dead upon the dock. Now, the insineation of the British Minister that Schlosser was “nominally” within the ter ritory ef the United States aay well be reterted, as we can with equal tiuth say that Navy Island was ‘nominally’ within the ‘territory’ of the Briiish Government ; for, af the period to which we allude, the people collected there had as effectually d2- fied Canada authorities +8 any portion of our people Lat! disregarded ours.

Ifa representation of the state. of things*at Schlosser and the conduct of those who had control of the Carolise, had first been made to the proper authori- ties of New York, or of the United States; thea there would have been some show at least. of respect for our sovereigoty and in- dependence, and a disposition to treat us #s.an equal. But in this case, as if to treat Our authorities with contempt, there was no prelimioary demand or representation made. nl It was hoped that the outrage was per- petrated by a party in sudden heat ‘and ex- citement, upon their own responsibility. — But the Briisb Minister now eavows that ‘tbe act was the public act of persons obey- ing the constituted authorities of her Ma- jesty’s Province,’ und again affirms that ‘it was a public act of personsia her Majesty’s, service, obeying the ogders of their superior anthorities.”’ If this had been the firet and only point of collision with Great Britain, it might not have excited such interest ; but there is sa assumption in must of our intercourse with that great Power, revolting to the price and spirit of independence in a free people. If it be her desire to préserve peace, her true policy would be to do jastice, and show that ccurtesy to equals which she has al- ways demanded from others. The com- mittee do not desire to presse views.on this, part of the subject, particularly as a demand has been made by our Government apon the Goveroment of Great Britain for expla- gation as to the outrage committed, the an- ewer to which it is hoped, will prove satis. factory. Astothe other points presented in the demand made by the British Minister for the ‘ liberation’ of Alexender McLeod, the committee believe the facts of the case to be, that the steamboat was seized and burnt as slated before, and that @ citizen of cili- zens of New York were murdered in the various testimony being taken was then dis- charged. [le was afterwards arrested a sc- eond time. Upon the evidence then pre- sonted, he was imprisoned to await bis t1- al. But, upon his being voldutsrily within our territory, he was arrested as any citizen of the United States, charged with a similcr offence might have been. We know of no law of oations that would exempt @ man from arrest and imprisonment for offenccs charged to be committed against the ‘ peace and dignity’ of a State, because he 1s a sub- ject of Great Britain, or because he com” mitted the crime al the instigation or under the authority of British Provincial officers ; much less do we kriow of soy law tbat would justify the President to deliver bimw up without trial, at the demand, and upco the assertion as lo facts, of any agent of the British Government.

The Miniser, in ts letter of the 13tb December, 1840, says: * It is quite noto- nous that Mr. McLeod was not one of the party engaged in the destruction of the steam- boat Caroline; and the pretended charge vpoa which be bas bees imprisoned rests only opon the perjured (estimony of certain Canadians, outlaws, and their abettors,” &e. This may. perchance, all be so ; bul would be asking a great deal to require aa Ameri- cap court to yield jurisdiction, and surren- der op a prisoner charged wish offences 8- gainst (be law, upon the mere ipse dizii of any mean, DO mailer bow high in authority. Whether McLeod be guilty or not guilty, is the very poiwt epoo which en American jury alone have a right to decide. Juris- diction m State tribunals over criminal cases, and trial by jury of the venue, are esscotia! points 15 American jurispradence. Aod it 18 a total misapprehension es to the nalure of our system to suppose that there is any right in the Federal! Executive to ar- rést the verdict of one, or thwart the juris- dictron of the other. If such a power exist- ed, and were exercised it would effectually overthrow, and upon a vital point, the seps- rate sovereignty and independence of these States. ‘The Federal Executive might be clothed with power to deliver up fugitives from justice for offences committed e- geinet a foreign State, bot even then it might not be obligatory to do so unless it were made’ matior of wes'v stipulation. This duty and right ia an Execotive bas general- Jy been considered as dormant, until made binding by treaty arrangement. But when the matter is reversed, and demand is made not fugitives from justice for offences com- mitted agsiost a foreign Power, but for the liberation of a man charged qith offences against the pesce and dignity of one ef our own States, then it 1s thet the demand be- comes preposterous in the extreme. The fact that the offences were committed under the sanctron of provineial authorities, does not aller the case, unless we were in a state of war. In such gases as the present, the power to deliver could not be conferred op- on the Federal Execotive by treaty stipula tion. It could only be conferred in those oases over which jorisdiction is clearly del- egated by the Feceral Constitution ; such, for instance, a8 (reason, which 1s an offence ageinst the conjoined sovereignty of the States, as defined inthe Constitution. Over all cases except those defined in the Con- stitution, and those coming clearly under thé laws of nations, the States have exclu- sive jurisdiction, and the trial and punish- ment for offences against them are incident to thew separate sovereignty. [t 1s not pre- tended in this case that there is any treaty. stipniation ander which the demand is made; and the Federal Executive, under our sys- tem, bas no power but what is conferred by the constitution, or by special law of Con gress. In the former, it 1s declared that “the Execuuve power is vested in a Presi- dent of the United States,” and that power is then to be pointed out and defined by special laws pessed from time to time, impos- ing such duties ae are thought proper and expedient by Congress. Your committee deem it dangerous for the Executive to exercise any power over 8 subject-matter not conferred by treaty or by law; and to exercise it tn any case in con- flict with State jurisdiction, would oe worse tban dangerous; it would be usurpation. But your committee forbear to press these yoints further at present, and they would not have said as much on euch clear ques- tions of intervational law, but that in this casethe demand for liberation hasbeen made by the accredited agent of a great Power. end under circumstances of peculiar sggra- vation end excitement. We have other points of difference with Great Britain, which add interest to every question that arises between os at present. Neither ovr Northwestern boundaries are yet settled with her, ard the subject is aot entirel; free from difficulty. She has re- cently serzed oor vessels and exercised a power involving the right of search, under the pretext of suppressing the foreign slave trade, which, sf persevered in. wil! sweep our commeree (rom the coast of Africa, and which isincompatible with our mghts asa marine power, She has recently, in her , intefeourse with us, refused indemnity end denied oar rights to property, on a subject- matter etal to near one half the States of this Confederacy, and which, censidéring her militery position at Bermuda and her growing power in the West Indies, is of the Jast {importance to our national indepen. dence. All these subjects make every question bétween vs, at this peeuliar juncture, of the deepest interé@st. Besides this, weasre both permanently destined to have, perhaps, the most exten- sive commerce of modern nations. Our flags float side by side, over every sea; bay, and inlet of the known globe. She moves steadily upon her objects with an ambition that knows no bounds; and wherever she has had a confliet of interest she has rarely yielded to any Power. At this moment she presents to the eivil- ized world the spectacle of the greatest mil- itary and commercial powerin combination ever known, From her vast possessions in every quar- ter of tbe globe,and her peculiar commercial! ¢sstem she hasbeen made the reservoir of the wealth of nations.

The Speaker siid the report could not be received, unless by consen: of all parties. Mr. Hewes then dbjected. Several members suggested that it was now too late to make the objection, as the report was actually before the House, and motions had beep mede and entertained re- specting it. The speaker here decided that the ob- jection should have been made when Mr Pickens proposed tosubmit the report ; that, not hearing any objection, he had received the report, and propositions were entertained respeeting it; and that it was now too late to raize the objection. The reading of the report was called for, and it was read ac- cordingly. Mr. Everett renewed his proposition to include tn the printing all the documents up- on the subject, a list of which he furnis Mr. Granger rose and cd ga the question—first, on the motion to lay on the table; and then, the motion to print And the motion to priat being debatable— Mr. Granger ssid that he considered this report, if acted upon and adopted by the House, as approaching very nearly, in its conseqvencrs, toa declaration of war, if the British Government should desire 80 to con- sider it. He would take occasion to say, asa member of the Commi‘tee on Foreign Affairs, that the report did not receive his assent And he fe!t constrained to detain the House for few moments whilst he assign- ed, very briefly, his reasons for this concla- sion. “What, (continued Mr. G.) was the posi- tion of the Committee on Foreign affairs when they entered upon “thé « of this question? My colleague more) had called upon the State -ment for the correspondence which | ken place in relation to the demand for the liberation of McLeod, That matter, and that alone, was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. lt is not* mv purpose | to censure the conduct of this Administra-) tion, for, so far as my judgement can now | determine, | approve fully the course thes have taken. ‘That opinion may. upon fure ther reflection, |.e changed ; but, as at pre- sent advised, | consider the course of Mr. Forsythe to have been such as was due to his high official station and due to the char- acter and dignity of this nation. Buat, so considering, and representing a section of country deeply interested in this question, and as ready to meet its consequences as the people ef any other section of this Un- ion, I still dissent from the report. What does it embrace? A report apon matters referred to the committee on For- eign Affiirs? No; nothing, as J have stated, was referred to the committee but the cor- respondence tn relation to the demand for the liberation of McLeod Does that committee act upon a call of the Executive of this pation, made upon this Louse, to place before the country and the world the condition of things between the United States and Great Brtsin? No, The Ex- ecutive, mindlul, as we are bound to be- heve, of the honor of the country as well as of the character of his own administra- Uion, has not thonght proper to cal upon e- ther House of Congress for advice in regard to oor relations with Great Britain. What- Soreard then, Is the position of that committee ? ravelliag beyond the record, they coare be voies of a bare ) order) @ report, mejorty fe abich to say th tts character, af plaints egainet th one of which i comm .ttee. ot by whom, have the committee on Foreign Affairs been ca}!- ed upon to consider seizures upon the high seas, of this alleged right of search? which. J agree with the committee, is one which this nation is not likely to tolerate io the manner io which it 1s cow exercised. When or by whom, were ihe other matters of eon-. troversy which that report embiaces referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs that they might meke report upon them ?. And, if so, what bave thegreported? Have they seat here a document setting forth the al- leged griegances of this country, eomplain- ing of injustice done oa the patt of Great Britain, aod calliog apoa the action of tis House upon those matiers? Has the chair- man of the Committee of Ways and Means come forward to say that he is prepared to recommend appropriations to put the coun- try in a proper state of defence to meet the emerg ocy which such a report as this may create? 1s your committee on Militare Af- fairs ready to recommend the defences whieb should be provided if such a report is to go forth to. the world, uader the sauc- tion of this House? Has your Commitiee op Naval Affairs sent io requisitions to put your ships is commission, that you may-be prepared to meet on tbe high seas the pow: er you have before met and crippled? No ‘Phere hag. been no such recommendation. And the inittee on Foreigo Afaira, with- oul recommending any action without even Coming to any conelusion, as it seems to me, except Great Britain is the greatest Power oo earth and we the humblest, bring here a report calculated to inflame the whole nation ; to let it go forth to the world that we are makiog ao issue with Great Britaio which we valuatanly tender to ber, aad which, in my opinion she base right to take up on the instant. But, Mr Speaker, there are considera- tions connected with the bonor and dignity of the State of New York. and with the administration of justice within her borders that demand our atiention. Ona former occasion I stated on this floor that the per- son whose life was in jeopardy would re+ ceive at the hands of ajury of New York the same fair and impartial trial which would be secured to any citizen of that State who might be arraigned for a violation of its laws ; but | mourn now to say that, from present indications, there is an ex- citement on the western border of New York, growing out of the arrest of this man and of his liberation for the moment, which is already sufficiently great to make those who regard the lives andthe liberties of the people of this country pause before they act. By this time, I suppose, the grand jury of Niagara county bas closed ite investigation. The current romor through the newspapers of the day is, that Me Leod has been indicted. ‘The people of that sec- tion have been greatly incensed by re‘ent transactions there’ Send forth thie paper to the world, recommending nothing and being nothing bute detailed account of grievances against the British Government with afew hits at what may be presumed to the arrogance of her course, and no man ean answer for the consequences upon the life of this m I felt it to be my duty to e this question until passed. I believed Is country could never higher glory to itself ing to the world that, Pth® position which its honor , still shat the hamblest individ- aal of this or any other country whose fvot was apon our soil shoold be shielded by the mild, the just, and the impartial opera- tion of atstaws. Ido not think that, with- out any thing having been laid before the Committee on Foreign Affairs but the pa- pers relating to the liberation of this man— I say, Ldo nor think tht the honor or dig- nity of this nation required that we shoold send forth a declaration, not only of the prowess of Great Britain and of our ho- mility, but of our readiness to meet her at aay moment, when necessity existed for such athréat; and when the voice of this House, speaking potentially to the nation, might be considered as a watch-word by which every man on the Northern frontier be ya guide himself in hurrying on to ex- ecution thie suspected foreigner, If he should be trie@ afd found gaity, let the people on the frontier of New York and the people throughout the widest extremitres of this land be prepared to meet the conse- qrences. When those consequences shall present themselves, not only will the State of New York be ready to meet them, but I feel sure that a patriotic feeling, which su- persede all questions and merges all politi- cal differences, will rally this whole nation to tbe rescue. It will then be time enough to act; but, in the name of justice, let us not anticipate that event by inflaming the public mind, and adding to the horrors of war the consciousness that we have inter- ferred with the impartial operation of our laws on trifled with their supremacy. Some conversation took place between Messrs, Adams, Pickens, and G-innell, of which the Reporter could hear nothing, ex- cept that 1) resulted in @ motion by. Mr. Grinne!l to amendthe motion of Mr. Pickens, (which was, thatthe report be laid on the table and printed, as above sta- | ted,) so as to lay on the table the whole sob- ject that was to say,the report and the mos tion to print the report, &.; and on that motion Mr. G. asked the yeas and naye, | which were ordered. Mr. Pickens inquired of the Speaker whether that motion closed the debate ? The Speaker replied in the affirmative: Some conversation ensued between va- rious members, whena division of the ques- tion was called for Mr. Briggs suggested to Mr Grinnell that, as he (Mr B ) supposed no ore wan- ted (be yeay and nays oh the motion fo hy ? ia " ac é . od upon com: | Goverament, not F referred to that 4 on the tak ou! ee ia ihe eall Tor thean @ | part of the motion was affected.

That gentleman: (contnued Mr. P] has delivered a regolar set speech, prepared for the oceasion, with tones as regelaras if they had issued fram a bag pipe. He was the very last gentleman bere, judging from the sentiments he expressed a few weeks F880, who, | should have supposed, would have fourd his patriotism and* his valor oozing out so soon from the palms of his hands. Hus speech, in my opinion, is wor- thy of attention, He speaks as one cloth- ed with authority, and | regret very much the course he has thocght proper to pursue. Mr. Speaker. I will declare to you and to this House that, so far from this report be- ing the war report, as the gentleman from New York has characterized it, its essen. ually the reverse. “To speak our eentaments plainly and fearlessly before the world—to declare that we, kaow our rights and dare maintain then—must. iv my judgment, have a tendency directly the reverse of that which the gentleman seems to anticipate. He has spoken of this report in two points of view Inthe first place, he as- serts that the Committee on Foreign Affairs have travelled out of the record. ‘The sub- ject-maiter in relation to the “Caroline” and to the demand for the liberation of M-Leod I consider as having been actaally and io fact referredio thatcommiuttee. They coald not separate the two cases so as to present them io ao intelligible point of view to the country. And does he say that that part of the report is beyond the record 2 Other matters have been mentioned mere!y as in- cidental, by way of illustrating the interest throwa arouu@Abie question, and witb no intention to @reuse any hostile feeling in this or any other country. I deny the :m@ putation, throwoout by the gentleman from New York, that she report has arrayed the strength of Great” Britain and ploclaimed our own weakness, or, a6 he terms i! our own humhility before the world. It does no such thing. I challenge the gen:lemap to lay his finger, if he can, apon a single sentence which, even by inference prociaims our weakness or imbeciity, I thought it was proper to pregent the precise condition of things to the country ; aud I will here take occasion to say that the re- port was written by myself, without con- sultation with any human being, save the committee to whom it was presented. In drawing it up, I looked over the whole snb- ject-matter, [ looked at the great interests involved, I looked at the positionin which you Mr. Speaker; and this Hoese had placed the Committee on Foreign Affaire before the nation andthe world and I felt it to be a duty which I owed to this House and to my country to utter freely and with- out reserve the sentiments we entertained. The G-ntleman tells that the Executive has called for no action; that itis doe to the Executive branch of the Government that this Huuse should wait ontil it hears from that quarter. Sir, I taka the reverse of that position ; [ eay that we were consti- tuted, under the Federal Constitution, as a co-ordinate ard independent branch of this Government; that this House is, in the contemplation of that Constitution, the pe- culiar guardian of the interests anc the righis of this Confederacy ; and that when any subject matter is legitimately brought before it, It is not only our right, but it is our duty to the Constitution andto the country to proclaim our sentiments upon it. I repel tbe idea that we are to look to the Execu- tive branch of this Government for dictation or counsel upon anv question that may be supposed to involve the intereste and the liberties of the People. - Bat, Mr. Speaker, my principal object in re- plying to the remarks of the gentleman from N. York is to declare, av I have already done, that this, so far frum being a war report, is of a pre cisely contrary character. I had hoped that the vole m'ghi have been taken silently ; that the report might havs been laid on the table and printed; that there should have been no panic ° that po-discassiun shuald have sprung up, that no excitement calcalaied to arouse the People of this coantry by false appeuls to their patriotism ard their honor, should have been manitesied here. But the Committee go Foreign Affairs have thought that it was properte present to the People the exaci qrestions at issae between us and a great and powerful nation. We thought —of, at all events, so far as [ am concerned, | thuoght, that the People in every part of the United States, and of every party, had, for the last two years, been too mach absorbed in the political conflicts of the day. I thought it was right that the country should onderstand, in an authentic form, the points at issae between 23 and Great Britain, and, under these circumstan ces, [ presented this report, acting, as | du on all other occasions, under a consctentions sense of my duty. Yes—I was reavived to do my duty, leaving the conseqaences io God. These are the principles apon which [ have been taught to act. And when { hear from certain qaarters appeals | to the Lonor, the patriotism, and the valor of the | People of thts land—when | bear indirect an- “oonciations made that the accredited heads of | this Government have heretofure aeglected thetr duty and slept on the rights of the eouairv—t | have a right to expect that those geatlemen who / mike sach appeals and such anounciations wil | themselves cone fursard on occasions of imnpor- | | tance, and vindicate the sentiments which they | have previonsly uttered. | As to the allegation that this report will have | the effect of exciting the people on the border, [ say I should rather think its tendeacy would be the reverse. The people there have been great- ly exctiey 5 meetings of an angry, udnecessacy, nd fp cocsited for cheracter have taken place, Mr. Grinnell —tolay the motion to print.the So the mrtion 10 pript the report, &c. | Mcl.eod. and why.

A great People like this, canaot, uoder such circametanees ‘urbear 5 and they would bs pressed upon every point, an- til at last an appeal to arms and to the God of Battles would become inevitable. It is to avoid these consequences—it 's for the purpose of lettiog the People know the trus coo. dition of things and the real state of the issue— that this report has been presented, I ask no action upon It; | desire to say oothing ‘bat cen be consirued ivte an intimation or threat that war is te follow. {| believe the contrary ; and v bearings, I presented this report mpon my gol and eatire responsibility, except, as | have sai go fat asel had the aid and consultation of a ma: jority of the Committee of Foreign Affaire ; yes, a bare majority, as the gentleman frem N. York has told you. And it is with regret and pain that I contemplate the fact that it ie only a ma jority report. I had hoped that upon the qnes— tion of our foreign relations there were parties in this Conntry, and that we should have met the iseue, whatever it nay be, as a united and free People ought to meet it. Mr. Adame obtained the floor, bat yieided it to Mr. Granger, who said: If the House will listen to my bag pipe a few moments longer, | shall fee! exceedingly obliged ; and if ite music is not so load as that of my friend from South Carolina,(Mr. Pickens.) it is only becaase I can not fill my bags with as much wind as he can blow into his. Sir, 1 speak by no anthority other than that of a Representative of the people of the State of New York. My own course twoold have been to suffer this report to pass by in si- lence, leaving to the honorable gentleman from South Carolina afl the honor of ite acthorship ; for [ have no doubt, and never have had 2 doubt from the moment when he first read it, that ev- ery sentence, every word in It was his own. | have down to this time supposed that it was as mach my right on this floor, and the right of any other member, to speak my own opinions without fear of dictation, as it was the right of the gen tleman from Soath Carolina to atter his, [only geclare that the opinions [| have expressed are solely and exclusively my own, without consul: tation with any one. I should not have called for the reading of the report. I had sopposed antil the gentleman from Sooth Carolina taught me better, that the Execative Departments of this nation conducted the negotiations opon all delicate matters between os and foreiga Guvern- ments. ‘I had sapposed tbat at any rate for the last twelve years the Executive of the United States had claimed some little authority in all matters connected with our fureign relations ; and I should have supposed that a party which had permitied oar Army to fall into disgrace— which had soffered our Navy to ron down toa state of even acknotledged dilapidation—and which had permitted the whole dorder country to be left defenceless, would be the last upon earth to present such a document as this. [ trost that the Administration which is aboot to come into power, though it may not manifest quite so hot a courage as breathes through this report, will show upon the high seas, spon the border, and, if need be, in the tented field, more power to resist the aggressions nf a foreign foe than the gentleman and his friends have exhibited [If it does not, it will disappoint the hopes of the Peo nle of this country, and f, for one, want none o! it. Let preparation be made. Jet the anfortu aate man now in confinement be tried according to the laws of the Siate of New York, anbiassed by the action of this Elouse, and let the nation calmly await the issue The gentleman says that my courage has suc. denly.‘‘ oozed out from the palms of my hands.” I acknowledge that life has fur me many charms: probably no-man clings to it with greater senact ty thao I do, or is more closely (ound by all the enjoyments of the present life and responsibilities of the futare. [ never speak of my cuurage, nor profess to have been ‘ born insensibd!e to fear.’ Ail I have to say is, that when the laws of my own State aod of the natiun shall have been ex ecated, and conseqaences are to be met, all dif- ferences of opinion between the gentleman from South Carulina and myself apon this and all other questions will be baried in our love of conn try, aud we will bs found, shoulder te shuulJer, battling in the common cause, Mr. Pickens addressed an inquiry to Mr. Graager, which the Reporter coald out hear {And, throughort the whule dehate, there was mach confasion in the Flall ; and the difficalty of hearing was greater than even it generally is, owing chiefly to the members standing up tn the aisles and talking fuodly at the same time, in contravention of that exellent, but long forgot- ten rule, which is numbered * $4.” See ediliun ‘of Rules, December 7, 1840 J Mr, Adams addressed the House at considera- ble leagth, ia remarks of which it is in the po-v- er of the Reporter to give only a briet outline.

Was this the way in which we should prepare for wai? Did the gentleman from South Carolina, (Mr. Pickens,) who presen- Excgland betore thenew Aiministration came ip- tepower? If so, he(Mr. F) would oppose it.— He was for war if necessary, but not befure we wére prepared for it.

Every breath Ot air that trembles through the window bears Unusoal odour : —Proelor's Miraneola. fe unprecedented success which bas re sulted from the adoption of Brandreth’s Pills, darliog a period of upwards of 35 years— the nomerous and extraordinary cares which they have performed open hundreds of individ- ua!s whom they have reseaed from almost inev- itable death, afier they have been pronoaneed incurable by the most eminent of the faculty — josiily Dr. Brandreth, the proprietor of this Vegetable Universal Medicine, in warmly and conscientiously recommending it to the especial no'ice of the public. Dr. Brandreth wishes markind to consider this truth,that health solely depands on the state of purity in which the blood is kept, every part of the body being supplied daily with new olood from the food consumed, conseyuen'}y, accord- ing to the parity uf that blood, su must the state o! the body be more or less healthy. To obtain, therefore, ‘he most direct purifier of the bluod, is a question of oo litile importance to every indi- vidual ‘That Brandreth’s Pills are the most direct po- rifiers of the blood there will be no doubt when i is considered that they have gaiped their pre sent very exlensive sale by their own intrinsic merit, proved by the numerous eures which they have accomplished in every variety of disease. ‘The peculiar action of these pills is must sar- prising —their operations being more or less pow- erful, according to the pureness of the circola- ting fluid. Oo a person in a fair state of health, who is only custive or slightly billious, they will be scarcely feli—on the contrary, if the com- plaingp@ ct ronic, and the constitution much de- ranged, the effect generally at first is most pow - erful, ontil the system be freed from some of its most viiiated and turgit homours. ‘his accom- plished, dose sufficient to cause two or three evacuations daily, will soon remove the disease, and the constitution will be restored to a state of health and renewed vigor. The thousands who use and recommend these pills, is proof positive of their extraordinary and beneficial effect. ‘hey in fact assist nature to do all she ean in the caring every form and Symptom of the only one disease to which the luman frame is subject, namely : impurity of the blood of in other words, and Impure state of the fluids) These pills do indeed “ assist na ture”? to all she can do for the purification of the homan body ; yet there are numbers whose cases are so bad, and whose bodies are so much debili tated, thas all that can reasonably he expected is temporary relief, nevertheless some who have commenced using the Pills under the most try- ing circumstances of bodily affliction, when al— most every other remedy had been altogether unavailing, have been restored to health and happiness by their use. Dr. Brandreth has to return thanks to a generous and enlightened pudlic fur the patronage they have bestowed on lim, and he hopes by preparing the medicine, us he has ever dune, to merit a contiauation of favors. Dr. Branareth’s office is now kept at the snb- sciiber’s Boot and Shoe store, 6 doors below the Market Main street, Richmond, Va, where the Pills can be obtained at 25 cents per box.

THE RESCUE. AN INCIDENT OF TIIE REVOLUTION. BY ROBERT HAMILTON, It was an autumnal! evening—the forest had begun to don their mantles of gorgeous colors. The fields shorn of their harvest treasures, lay like golden lakeleta in the rich and mellow sunset. The noble {ligklands, like giant warriors, clothed ia their panoply of rock and foliage, threw their sudden shad- ows far out upon the tosom of the glorious Hudson, whe, rolling on in his path of beauty, gleamed lke a fallen rainbow in the innumerable tints of accidental glory. Far in the distant towered the venerable Cronest, begirt with a ciadem of purple and gold. The first star was twinkling on the brow of twilight, deep dark clouds were encircling the zouve of creation, rock aad mountain, tree aad shrub, hill, dale, valley and rivulet, and commingled in one haze softness, rendering ‘ta scene of indescriba- ble loveliness, béautiful as in those days of primitive innecence, ere stn was known, ar d+sulation and decay had fallen upon the bosoms of our earthly Eden. Such was the evening when a barge was seen to leave the promontory of West Point, in the neigh- borhod of which. we locate our narrative, in the year 1782. [In it were several persons attired in the military costume of that period, who with well measured strokes of their oars, made it dart over the golden waters like a ray of light. In the stern was seated a nan of about fifty years of age, his head was uncovered, and reveal- ed to view a wide and capacious brow— his features were marked and masculine, bis mouth --hich was peculiarly character- ized by a clseness of the lips, gave to him a look of determination, one which in no way impaired the mild and merciful expres- sion which reigned over bis general aspect. Like the others inthe boat, he wore a dark blue coat with broad buff facings, closely buttoned to the throat, heavy golden epsu- letts, buckskin small clothes, high military boots, with spurs of steel, while a belt of boff encircled bis waist, in which was fixed a straight sword. Such was the costume of the personage who was destined to achieve the liberty of bis couotry, and to burst the fetters of oppression. Reader, need we say who it was? Jo ‘‘,:ur minds eye,” dves be not stand before you? Is not his name the watchword of your Independence, and his memory enshrined tn the heart of every son of fieedom? It was George Washington. As the barge gained the opposite bank, one of the rowers leaped ashore, and bad made fast to the root of a willow which hung its broad thick branches over the river The rest of the party then landed, and on- covering saluted their commander, wae re- spectfully returned their courtesy. “ By ten o'clock you may expect me,” “Be cautions—look ou are nol surprised.

The festivities ‘were again renewed, but almost momenta- | «ypmtoms of uneasiness, while ever and a- ‘nop he looked from the window out upon ! Why answer they not the signal ? ' woment a bright flame rose from the river, * Depend upon us,”’ replied one of the party. ““[ do,” he responded, and bidding them farewe!l departed along the bauk of the; river, Tat evening a party wae to be giver at | the house of one of his old & valued frends, | to which he, with several other American } officers, had been invited. It was seldom | that he had participated in festivity, more | especially at that period when every tno- | ment was fraught with Ganger; neverthe | less 1n respeci to an old acquaintance, back- | ed by the solicitations of Roby Rugsdale, | the daughter of the host, be had consented | to relax from the toi!s of militery duty, and | \he branches was beard, and like e deer, a ile started with surprise, laid his band upon bis sword —but the ladsan only fell. upog. her knge, placed her fnger on ber lips, and by e siga “What seek sou my wild Aigwer?” said the General. She started tober feet, drew: a small tomahawk from hes. belt, of waa paw, and imitated the ast of scalping the evemy—tibeo egain waving her hand ag for- bidding hin to advance, she darted into Lhe “There is danger,” said he to himself, me 00 good, but my trust is in God— ; he has never yet deserted me,” and resuming his path, be short!y reached the mansion of Rufus Rugsdale. His appearance was the signal for joy among the party assembled, each of whom vied with the other to do bim honcr. Al- through grave in council, and bold in war, yet in the bosom of domestic bliss, no one knew better how to render bimself agreea- ble. The old were cheered by his cansoli- lary words. ‘The young by his muirsbful manner, or even in gallantry was be wanting, when it added tothe spirit of the hour, The protestations of friendship and welcome were warmly tendered to him by the host. Fast and thickly the guests wére assembling the smile, the laugh, and the mingling mu- Sic, rose joyously around. The twilight was fast merging into night, but a thousand lamps of sparkling beauty gave a brilliancy of day to the scene—all was happiness — bright eyes and blooming faces were every where beaming—but alas! a serpent was lurking among the flowers. In the midst of the hilarity, the sound of acannon burst suddenly upon thg ear, startling the guests, and suspending the dance. Washington and the officers look- ed at each other with surprise, but their fears were quickly dispelled. Rugsdale assuring it was only a discharge of ordnance in lon- or of his distinguisbed visitors. The joy of the moment was again resumed, but the gloom of suspicion bad fallen upon the spi- rit of Washington who sat in moody silence apart from the happy throng. A slight tap upon his shoulder at length aroused him from hie abstraction, and look- ing upy he perceived the person of the Ir dian standing in the bosom of the myrile bush close to his side. ‘sHa! again here?” he exclaimed with | astonishment, but she motioned him to be, silent, and kneeling at his feet, presented | him with a boaget of flowers. Washing- ton received it, and was about to place it in his breast, when she by the arm, ard pointh whisper, ‘Snake! Snake, moment mingled wit) the appeared to recognize an one well known and es : Washington regarded the boque. with’ wonder; he saw nothing in it to excite his suspicion ; her words and singular appear- ance had however suvk deeply into his | heart. and looking closer upon the nosegay to his surprise he saw a sinall piece of pa- oer in the midst of the flowers. Hastily he drew it forth, andconfounded ard hor- ror stricken, read ‘*Beware! you are be trayedt’ [t was now apparent that he was within the den of the tiger, bat to quit it abruptly, might only draw the consumma- tion of treachery the speedier upon his head. He resolved, therefore, to disguise | his feelings, and trust to that power which | rily interropted by a second sound of the cannoge” The guests now began to regard each otfier with distrust, while many an lances east upon Roge- moody weresth dale, whOse'e ince began io show the broad greenlawn which extended to the river’s edge, as if in expectation of some one’s arrival, What can detain them 2? he mutterred | to himself. ‘Can they have deceived me ?

Scarcely had she imparted her informa- tion, and the shadows of the night closed around, when a company of Brilish soldiers were discovered making their’ Way rapidly towards the banks‘ of the Hudson, within a short distance of the spot where the A- merican party waittng the retorn of their Bold in the cansevof liberty, , and knowing that immediate action could alone preserve him, they rushed (upon, and overpowered them, siripped them of theif oniforme and arms, bound them hand and fooot ; pleced them in their boat, and uuder charge of two of their companions, sent them to the American camp at West _ Having disguised themselves in ts of the enemy, they pro- ceéded to the house of Rugsdale, where, at the appointed time and sign, made kaown to them, by the Indian, they opportunely arrived to the relief of Washington, and ihe confusion of the traitor. Thus was the father of his epuntry, by the interposition of Divine Providence, who in his own words, ‘never deserted jim, saved from captivity, and but for winehA- merica might to this day, have been pressed by the foot of oppression and her children have bowed the knee to a fureign power. ANECDOTE OF FROGS. One night in July, 1758, thedsogs of en ertificial pond about three milés square and about five miles from Windham, finding the water dred up, left the place in 2 body and yma or rather hopped towards Minno- maatie river. ‘They were under the neces- sity of going througb the towa, which they entered about midnight. ‘Tie bull frogs were the leaders, and the pipers followed without number. ‘hey filled a road forty yards wide for four miles in length, and were fur several hours passing through, and unusually clamorous. ‘Lhe inhasifsats were eqaaily perplexed and frightened.

And.in obedience to a custom coeval with our Government, and what I believe to be your expectations, | proceed to present to you a summary of the princi- ples which will govern me, in the discharge of the dures which { shall be called upon tu perform, [t was the remark of a Roman Consul, in an early period of that celebrated Repub- lic, that a most striking contrast was obser vable io the conduct of candidates Jor offi- ees of power and trust, before and after ob- taining them—they seldom carrving out in the Jatter case the pledges and promises msde in the former. However much the world may have improved, in many respecis in the lapse of upwards of two thousand years siuce the remark was made by the virtuous and todignant Roman,I fear that a strict examination of the annals of some of the modern elective Governments, would develope similar instances of violated con- fidence, Although tbe fiat of the People has gone forth, proclaiming me the Chief Magistrate of this glorious Union, nothing upon their pari remaining to be done,it may be thought that a@ motive may exist to keep op the de- lusion ander which they may be supposed to have acted in relation to my principles and opinions; and perhaps there may be some in this assembly who have come here either prapared to condemn those [ shall now deliver, or, approving them, to doubt the sincerity with which they are altered. Bu! the lapse of a few months will confirm or dispel their fear. The ootline of princi- ples to govern, and measures to be adopted, by an Administration not yet begun, will soon be exchanged for immutable history ; and J shall stand, either exonerated by my countrymen, or classed with the mass of those who promised that they might de- ceive, and flattered with the intention to betray. However strong may be my present purpose to realize the expectations of a magnanimous and confiding People, I too well understand the iufirmities of human natore, and the dangerous temptations to which | shall be exposed, from the magni- tude of the power which it bas been the pleasure of the People to commit to my hands, not to place my chief confidence up- on the aid of that Almighty Power which has hitherto protected me, ard enabled me to bring to favorable issues other important bot still greatly inferior trusts, heretofore corfided tome by my country. The broad foundation upon which our Constitution rests, being the People—a breath of theirs having made, as a_ breath can unmake, change, or modify it—it can be assigned tonone of the great divisions of Government but to thatof Democracy. If such is its theory, those who are called upon to administer it must recogaise, asits leading principle, the duty of shaping their Measures soas to produce the greatest good to the greatest number. But, with these broad admissions, if we would compare the sovereignty acknowledged to exist in the mass of our People with the pow imed by other sovereignties, even by those which have been considered most purely demo- cratic, we shall find a most essential differ- ence. All others lay claim to power lim- ted only by their own will. ‘The majority of our citizens, on the contrary, possess a sovereignty with an amount of power pre- cisely equal to that which has been gran- ted to them by the parties to the national compact, and nothing beyond. We admit of no Government by Divine right—believ- ing that, so far as power is concerned, the beneficent Creator has made no distinction amongst men, that all ere npon anequality, and that the-enly legitimate right to govern iaipaiinapbele plein Of pews from the gov- ernet’. The Constitution of the United States is the instrament containing this grant of power to the several departments com- posing the Government. Onan examina- tion of that instrument, it will be found to contain declarations of power granted, and of power withheld. The latter is alsosus- cepmbie of division, into power which the m ty had the right to grant, but which they @d not think proper to intrust to their agentepand that which they could not have grantedyubt being possessed by themselves. In other words, there are certain rights possessed hy each individual American cit- izen, which, in his compact with the oth- ers, he has never surrendered. Some of them, indeed, he is unable to surrender, being, in the language of our system unal- lenadle. The boasted privilege of a Roman citi- zen was to hima shield only against a pet- \y provinctal ruler, whilst the proud cemo- erat of Athens console bimseif under a sen- tenee of death, for a suppoeed violation of the national faith, which no one understood, and which at times was the subject of the mockery of all, or of banishment from his home, his family, and his country, with or withoot an alleged cause ; that it was the act, not of a single tyrant, or hated aristoc- racy, but of his assembled countrymen.— Far different is the power of our sovereign- ty. Itcan interfere with no one’s faith, prescribe form of worship for no one’s ob- servance, infict no punishment but after well ascertained guilt, the result of investi gation uncer rules prescribed by the Con- stitution itself, These precious privileges, and those scarcely less important, of giving expression to his thoughts and opiniors, either by writing or speaking, unrestrained but by the liability for injury to others, and that of a full particigatton in all the ad . hE ay - vantages which flow from the Government, the. acknowledged property of ail, the A- merican citizen derives from no chaster granted by bis fellow man. He claims them because he is himself a Man, fashion- ed by the same Almighty hand asthe rest of his species, and entitied to a full share of the blessings with which he bas endow- ed them. Notwithstanding the limited sovereignty possessed by the People of the United States, and the restricted grant of power to the Government which they have adopted, e- nough has been given to accomplish all the objects for which it was created. It has been found powerful in war, and, hitherto, justice has been administered, an intimate union effected, domestic tranquility preserv- ed, and personal liberty secured to the citi- zen. As was to be expected, however, from the defeet of language, and the neces- sarily sententiouos manner in which the Constitution is written, disputes have aris- en as to the amount of power which it bas actually granted, or waz intended to grant. This is more particularly the case in rela- tion to that part of the instroment which treats of the the Legislative braneh: And not only as regards the exercise of powars claimed under a general clause, giving that body the authority to pass all laws neces- sary to carry into effect the specified pow- ers, but in relation to the latter also. Itis, however, consolatory to reflect, that most of the instances of alleged departure from the letter or spirit of the Constitution, have ultimately received the sanction of a major- ity ofthe people. And the fact, that many of our statesmen, most distinguished for talent aod patriotism, bave beer, at one time or other of thetr political career, on both sides of each of the most warmly dis- puted questions; forces upon us the infer- ence that the errors, if errers there were, are attributable to the intrinsic difficulty, in many instances, of ascertaining the iaten- tions of the framers of the Constitution, rather than the influence of any sinister or unpatriotic motive, But the great danger to our institutions does not appear to me to bein a usurpation, by the Governmont, of power not granted by the People, but by the accumulation, in one of the Departments, of that which was assigned to others. Limited as are the powers which have been granted, still e- nough have been granted to constitute a despotism, if concentrated in one of the de- partments. ‘This danger 1s greatly height- ened, as it has been always observable that men are less jealous of encroachmen‘s of one department apon another, than upon their own reserved righits, When the Constitution of the United States first came from the hands of the Convention which formed it, many of the sternest republicans of the day were alarm- ed at the exteat of the power which had been granted to the Federal Goveryment, and more particularly of that portion which had been assigned to the Executive branch. There were in it features which appeared not to be@ifharmony with their ideas of 8 simple representative Democracy, or Re- public. » And knowing the tendency of power td increase itself, particularly whee exescysed by a single individual, predictions w made that, et no very remote period, thé Government would terminate in virtual monarchy. It would not become me to say that the fears of these patriots have been already realized. But, as I sincerely believe that the tendency of measures, and of men’s opinions, for some years past, has been in that direction, it is, | conceive, strictly prop- er that I should take this occasion to the assurances | have heretofor@ggee determination to arrest the progress tendency, if it really exists, and restore the Government to its pristine health and vigor as far as this can be effected by any legiti- mate ae of the power placed in my hands. | proceed to state, 1n as summary. a man- ner as I can, my opinion of the sources of the evils which have been so extensively complained of, and the correctives which may be spplied. Some of the former are unquestionably to be found in the defects of the Constitution ; others. in my judgment, are attributable to a misconstruction of some of its provisions. Of the former is the eli- gibiluy ofthe.same individual toa second term of the Presidency, Thesagacious mind of Mr. Jefferson early saw and ismented this error, and attempts heve been made. hitherto without success,.to apply umes datory power of the States to its eomrect As, hewever one mode of correction is in the power of every President, and conse- quently 10 mine, it would be aseless and per- haps invidious, to enumerate the evils of which, in the opinion of many of our fel- low-cilizens, this error of the sages who framed the Constitution mey heve been the source, and the bitter fruits which we are still to gather from it. if it continues to dis- figure our system. lt may be observed, how- ever, asa general remark, that Republics can commit no greater an error than to a- dopt or continue any feature in their sys- tems of government which may be calculat- ed to create or increase she love of power, in the bosoms of those to whom necessity obliges them to commit the management of their affairs. And, surely, nothing is more likely to produce such a state of mind than the long continuance of an office of high trust. nothing more destructive of ali those noble feeliogs which belong to the character of a devoted republican patriot. When this cor- rupting passion once takes possession of the human mind, like the love of gold, it be- comes insatiable. It is the never-dying worm in his bosom, grows with his growth, and strengthens with the declining years of its victim. If this 1s true, it is the part of wisdom for a republic to limit the service of that officer, at least, 1o whom she has in- trusted the management of ber foreign rela- tions, the execution of ber laws and the command of her armies and navies, to a pe- riod so ehort as to prevent his forgetting that he is the accountable agent, not the principal—the servant, not the master.

It cannot be claim- ed from the power (o recommend, since, althougb enjoined as a duty upon bin, it is a privilege which he holds in common with every other ecuizen. And although there may be something more of confidence in the propriety of the measures recommend- ed in the one case than in the other, in the obligations of ultimate decision there can be no difference. In the language of the Constitution, ‘‘all the legislative powers’’ which it grants “‘are vested in the congress of the United States. it would be a sole- cism in language to say that any portion of (hese 1s pot included in the whole. It may besaid, indeed, that the Constitu- tion has given to the Executive the power to annul the acts of the legislative body by refusing to them his assent. Soa similar power bas nogéssarily resulted from that in- strament ta the Judiciary ; and yet the Ju- diciary f@™s no part of the Legislature. There is, it is true, this difference between these grants cf power: the Executive can put his negative upon the acts of the Tegis- lature for other cause than that of want of conformity to the Constitution, whilst the Judiciary can only declare void those which violate that instrument. But the cecision of the Judiciary 1s finally in such a case, whereas, in every instance where the veto of the Executive is applied, it may be over- come by a vote of two-thirds of both Houses of Congress. The negative upon the acts of the Legislative, by the Executive anthor- ity, and that in the hands of one individual, would seem to be an incongruity in our sys- tem. Like some others of a similar char- acter, however, it appears {o be highly ex- pedient ; and if used only with the forbear- ‘ance, and in the spirit which was intended by its authors, it may be productive of great good, and be foand ne of the best safe- guards‘tothe Union. At the period of the formation of the Constitution, the principle does not appear io have enjoyed much fa- vor in the State Governments. It existed but in two, aod in one of these there was a plural Executive. If we would search for the motives which operated upon the pure- ly patriotic and enlightened assembly which framed the Constitution, for the adoption of @ provision so apparently repugnant to the leading democratic principle, that the ma- jority should govern, we must reject the idea that they anticipated from it any benefit to the ordinary course of legislation. They knew too well the high degree of intelli- gence which existed among the People, and the enlightened character of the State Le- gislatures, not to have the fullest confidence that the two bodies elected by them would be worthy represeniatives of such constitu- ents, and, of course, that they would require no aid in cogggiving and maturing the meas umstance of the coun- And it is preposterous a thought could for a mo- entertained, that the Pres- : Me Capital, in the centre of Meountry, could better understand the wants and wishes of the people than their own immediate representatives, who spend a part of every year among them, living with them, ofien laboring with them, and bound to them by the triple tie of interest, duty, and affectisn. To assist or contrd] Con- gress, then, in its ordinary legislation, could not, | conceive, have been the motive for conferring the veto power on the Prgsident. This argument acquires additional force from the fact of its never having been thus ased by the first six Presidents—and two of them were members of the convention, one presiding over its deliberations, and the other having a larger share in consummating the labors of that eugust body than any oth- er person. But if bills were never returned to Congress by either of the romgents a- referred to, upon the ground of ; s- {their being imeapedient, or not as well dapted as they might be to the wants of the People, the veto was sppliéd upon that of Notbing ean be more corrupting, want of conformity to the Constitution, or because errors had been committed from a :00 hasty enactment. There is another ground for tke adoption of the Veto priaciple, which bad probably more influence in recommending it to the convention than any other. I refer to the security which mt givesto the just and equi- table action of the Legislature upon all parts of the Union. It could not but have oc- curred to the convention that, in a country so extensive, embracing so great a variety of soil and climate, and, conseqoently, of products, sod which, from the same causes, must ever exhib.t a great difference in the amount of the popularity of its various sec- tions, calling for a great diversity in the employments of the People, that the legis- lation of the majority might not always justly regard the nghis and interests of the minority. Aaodthat acts of this character might oe passed. under an express grant by the words of the Constitution, and, there- fore,not within the competency of the judi- ciary tojdeciare void. That however enlight- ened and patriotic they might suppose, from past experience the members of Congress might be, however largely partaking in the geoeral, of the tiberal feelings of ibe Peo- ple, it was impossible to expect that bodies so constituted should not sometimes be con- trolled by local interests and sectioned feel. | ings. It was proper, therefore, to provide some umpire, from whose situation and mode of sppointment more iodependence and freedom from such influeaces might be ex- pected.

Aod J believe, with Mr. Madison, ‘that repeated recognitions under varied circum - stances, in acts of the legislative executive aad judicial branches of the Government, accompenied by indications in “different modes of the concurrence of the general will of the nation, es affording to the President sufficient authority for bis considering such disputed points as settled.” Upwards of half a century bas elapsed since the adoption of our present form of government. it would be an objection more highly desirable than the gratification of the curiosity of speculative statesmen, if its pre- cise situation could be ascertained, a fair ex- hibit made of the operations of each of its Departments, of the powers which they re- spectively claim aod exercise, of the col- lisions which have occurred between them, or between the whole Government and those of the States, or ether of them. We could then compare our actual condition, after fifty years’ trial of our system, with what it was in the commencement of its operations, and ascertain whether the predictions of tbe patriots. who opposed its adoption, or the confident hopes of its advocates, bave been best realized. The great dread of the for- mer seems to have been, that the reserved powers of the States would be absorbed by those of the Federal Government, and a consolidated power established, leaving to the States the shadow, only, of that inde- pendent action for which they so zealously contended, and on the preservation of which they relied as the last hope of liberty. With- out denying that the result to which they looked with so much apprehension is 10 the way of being realized, it 1s obvious that they did not clearly see the mode of its accom- plishment. The General Government has seized upon none of the reserved rights of the States. As far asany open warfare may have gone, the State authorities have amply maintained their rights) Toa casual obser- ver, our system presents no appoarance of discord between the different members which compose it. Even the addition of many new ones has produced no jarring They move in their respective orbits in per- fect harmony with the central head, and with each other. But there is still an under current at work, by which, if oot seasonly checked, the worst apprehensions of our anti-federal patriots will be realized. And not only will the State authorities be over shadowed by the great increase of power in the Executive Department of the General Government, but the character of that Gov- ernment, if not its designation, be essential- ly and radically changed. This state of things has been in part effected by causes inherent in the Constitution, and io part by the never-failing tendency of political pow- er to increase itself. By making the President the sole distributor of all the patronage of the Government, the fra- mers of the Constitution do not appear to have anticipated at how short 2 peried it would be- come a formidable instrument to control the free operations of the State guvernments, Of trifling importance at first, it had, early in Mr. Jeffer- | son's administration, beeume so powerfal es to create great alarm in the mind of that patriot, from the potent influence it might exert in con- trolling the freedom of the elective franchise.— If such could have been the effects of its infla- ence, how much greater mast be the Canger at this time, quadrupled in amount, as _it certainly is, and more completely ander the control of the Execative wil), than their construction of their powers allowed, or tke forbearing characters of all the early Presidents permitted them to make? But it is not by the extent of its patronage alone that the Executive Department has become dan- gerous, bat by the ase which it appears may be made of the appointing power, to bring under its control] the whole revenues of the country. The Constitution has declared it tobe the duty of the President to see that the laws are executed, and it mikes him the Commander-in Chief of the Armies and Navy of the United States. if the opinion of the most approved writers upon that species of mixed Government, which, in modern Europe, is termed Worarchy, m contra distinction to Despotism, is correct, there was wanting no other addition to the powers of our Chief Magistrate to stamp a monarchical char- acter on our Government, but the control of the public finances. And to me it appears strange, indeed, that any one should doabt that tbe entire control which the President possesses over the officers who have the custody of the public mo- ney, by the power of removal with or without cause, does, for all mischievous purposes at least Virtoally sobject the treasure also to his disposal. The first Ruman Emperor,in his attempt to seize the sacred treasure, silenced the opposition of the officer to whose charge it had been committed, by a significant allasion to his sword. By a se- lection of political instruments for the care of the public money, a reference to their commissions by a President, would be quite as effectoal an argument as that of Cesar io the Roman Knight.

We have learned, toogfrom our own as well as the experience of uther countries, (bat golden shackles, by who ror by, whatever pretence imposed, are as Aifas the iron bonds of Despotism. ‘I'he in the neces- nt shou'd ne- ity.or {fo varnish ily..examination of puld be not only ver be used “ to clear the g crimes.’ A decent and the acts of tte Governme tolerated but encouraged. . Upon another occasion Fhave given my onin- ion, 2t some length, upon Me iipropriety of Ex- ecutive interference tn th@®Jegislatian of Con- gress. ‘That the article iq@ the Constitution ma- king it the duty of the Pregident’ to communi cate information, and auiborsifig him to recom- mend measures, was not intended to make him the source of legislation, and Jip particular, that he should never be looked to for schemes of fi. nance. It would be very stfange, indeed, that the Constitation should havéijgtrietly forbidden one branch of the Legislature from interfering in the origination of such bills, | that it should be considered proper that anv ther different departmeat of the Goveram ld be permitted todo so. Some of our best politi- cal maxims and opinions have been drawn from our parent Isle. Thore are others, however, which cannot be introduced in our system with- out gingalar incongruity, and the production of much mischief. And this I conceive to be one. No matter in which of the Houses of Parlia- menta bill may origioate, nor by whom intro- duced, a minister, or a member of the apposi- tion, by the fiction of law, or rather of Consti- tutional principle, the Sovereign is supposed to have prepared it agreeably to his will, and then submitted itto Parliament for their advice and consent. Now, the very reverse is the cas¢@ here, not only with regard to the principle, by the forms prescribed by the Constitution. ‘Th prit.ciple certainly assigns (o (he only body con- stituted by the Corstitation (the legislative bo dy,) the power to make laws, and furms even direct that the enactment should be ascribed to them. The Senate, in relation to Revenue bills, bave the right to propase amendments; and so has the Executive, by the power given him to retern them to the House of Representatives, with his objections. It is in his power, also, to propose amendments in tha existing revenue laws, suggested by bis observations upon therr defective or injurious operation. But the deli- cate duty of devising schemes of revenue shon'd be left where the Constitntion has placed i:— with the immediate representatives of the Peo- ple. For similar reasons, the mode of keeping the public treasure should be prescribed by them; and the farther removed it may be from the control of the Executive, the more wholesome the arrangement, and the more in accordance with Republican priaciple. Connected with this subjact is the character of the curriney: The idea of making it excla- sively metallic however well intended, appears to me to be frauzht with more fatal consequenccs than any other scheme, having no relation to the personal rights of the citizen, that has ever been devised. If any single scheme could produce effect of arresting, at once, that mutation of condition by which thousands of our most indi gent fellow citizens, by their iadostry and enter- prise, are raised to the possession of svealth, that is the one. If there is one measure: better cal- culated than another to produce that state of things so mach deprecated by all traé repubdli- cans. by which the rich are daily adding to their hoards, and the poor sinking deeper into penury, it is an exclusive metallic currency. Or if there - try for generosity aod nublenees of feeling may be destroyed by the great increase and necessa- ry toleration of asury, it 1s an exclasive metallic currency. Amongst the other daties of a delicate cha- racter which the President is calied upon to per- form, is the supervision of the government of the Territories of the United States. Those of them which are destined to become members of our great political family, are compensated by their rapid progress frum infancy to manhood, for the partial and temporary ceprivation of their political rights. [tis in this District, only, where American citizens are to be fuond, who, ander a settled system of pelicy, are deprived of thany important political privileges, without any inspiring hope as to the future. ‘heir only consolation, under circumstances of such depri vation, is that of the devoted exterior guards of a camp—that their sufferings secure tranquility and safety within. Are there any of their coan- trymen who wonld subjec: then to greater sac- rifices, to any other humiliations than those es- sentially necessary to the security of the ubject for which they were thas separated from ‘heir fellow citizens? Are their rights alone not to be guarantied by the application of those great principles, apon which all our constitutions are fuanded 2? We are told by the greatest of Brit ish Orators and Statesmen, that, at the com- mencement of the war of the Revolution, the most stupid men in England spoke of ‘‘ their A merican subjects.” Are there, indeed, citizens of any of our States who have dreamed of their subjects in the Distriet of Colambia? Such dreams can never be realized by any agency of mine. The people of the District of Colombia are not the subjects of the people of the States, but free American citizens. Being ia the latter con dition when the Constitation as: formed, no words used in that character. If there is any thing inthe great principles of unalienable rights, so emphatically insisied upon in oor De claration of Independerce, they coold neither make, ror :he United States accept, 2 sarrendet of their liberties, and become the suljecls, in 0- ther words the slaves, uf their former fellow cit- izens.

SALISE URY: SATURDAY, MARCH 13, 1841. — THE NEW ADMINISTRATION. The readers attention will be attracted by the Inavgoral Address of Gen. Harrison, which we give in this paper, at the exclusion of almost every thing else. It needs no eulogy at our hands, nor need we solicit for it what every Whig and & Democrat in the Coontry will so anxiously perform, viz: a careful perusal. It is a correct pchart of Republican Whig principles, and ought ig be fixed in the mind of every American. )We regret we cannut at the same time pre- gent oor readers with the Inangaration ceremo- nies. They reached us ioo late for this paper,but shall appear next week, when we shall have more time and be better{prepared to notice the Address. o— BCH We have seen a circalar from the Hon. Lewis Williams, in the closing paragraph of which he announces himself a candidate for re election to Congress. Mr. Williams bas repre- sented the 13th District for twenty six or twen- ty eight years successively ; and has grown old in the service. ‘There is a clear Whig majority in Mr. Williams District of 3,200, and we sup- pose he will certain be elected, oppose him whvu may, of the Locofoco Party. BCP We have, within the last few days, met with gentlemen from Liacoln County, whose opportunities to know, and jadgment in such matters, are entit!ed to the highest respect ; and who express their belief that that County will give Col. Barringer a much betier suppaost than is commonly expected. Is Green Caldwell the man for Lincoln ?—or is he even the favorite of Mecklenburg ?_ Let the Whigs of the District be awake ; and particolarly let Cabarrus “ keep her eye skinned!” and they may ere long, have the satisfaction of hearing the expiring groans of Destructionism in the Congressional eleventh. “MECKLENBURG JEFFERSONIAN.” After much delay, it seems the Journal thus entitled, has made its appearance. The Editor, Mr. J. W. Hampton, says it commences with a ‘‘fair wind’”—barely sufficient however, to keep it sailing, and calls upon its friends to ral ly to its support. We wish the Editor person- ally, as much success and happiness, as falls to the lot of man to enjoy ; and regret to see him leaning oo a broken reed, which is to let him fall, and pierce him throogh with many sorrows In casting our eyes over the ‘‘ Jeffersonian,” we notice, besides several Editorials slandering Gen. Harrison’s Cabinet, quotations from the most vile L.eeofuco papers—such as the Rich- mond Enquirer and Western Carolinian, which fact, in our ha.nble opinion, aogurs badly of the promised support of “ Jeffersonian Republican priociples,” made by its Editor. BCH The Hon. Philip P. Barbour, Associate Judge of the Supreme Coart of the U. States, re- tired to his chamber in his usta! health, on the night of the 24th alt.,and was found dead in his bed on the morning of Tharsday. His sudden decease is ascribed to an affection of‘ the heart. The last rites were paid his remains at theCapitol in the chamber of the SupremeCoort,on the 261h. rhe President, Vice President, Senators, Repre- sentatives, and Jadges attended the ceremony. Judge Barbour was a very distingaished a vir- tuvus man, aad his death is a pubiic calamity. If any of the Locofuco Joornals should get out of their indispensable—‘‘ wind "—and have to make a praise to save appearances, we suggest to them tocall on Mr Pickens, of South Carolina, who, it seems, has a monstrous ‘* bag pipe,” in which he ean, in two or three hours, accumulate a vast deal of that article, and of whom they 'miy probably draw supplies—unless be should | again have tu “define his position !” | Collector of New York.—Juhn J.

The Times predicts the most serious na- tional consequences fiom this affair, which wes brorght before Parliament on the 8th instant, by Lord Stanley aod the Earl: of Moontecashell. The former asked Lord Palmerston whe- ther the government had taken any, and if so what steps, for the protection and !ibera- tion of Mr. McLeod. Lord Palmerston replied that the Govern- ment had sent certain instractions, but tll tbe conclusion of the correspondence was received it would be impossible to send fi- nal instractions, and that he was not pre- pared at that time to state formally what those mstructions were. The Earl of: Mountchasell asked similar questions of Lord Melbourne in the House of Lords, te which similsr answers were given, stating also thet Her Majesty’s Min- isters would take those measures which jo their estimation would be best calculated \o secure the safety of Her Majesty’s sub- jects, and to vindicate the honor of the Brit- ish nation. Sir Astley Coopeg. the eminent surgeon, lies dangerously ill, and |itté hope is enter- tained of his recovery. REPUBLICAN WHIG TICKET. FOR CONGRESS. COL. D. M. BARRINGER, of Cabarrus. We are authorized to announce Col. Bar- ringer’s acceptance of the nomination, unan- imously tendered him by the Whigs of Lin- coln, Cabarrus and Mecklenburg. The known abilities, high standing, and worth of Col. Barringer require not an evlogy from us—tbat has been expressed by the Whig party in their selection. We feel assured that the friends of .reform, economy, and constitutional rule, will rally in solid pha- lanx around the man of their choice in Au- gust next. With pleasure we state that his nomina- tion has been received in this district with the most entire satisfaction—all concur in the belief that be is the most suitable person the Whigs could have brought forward.— Long and faithfully has be struggled in his conntry’s cause, and if merit and solid worth be rewarded, be will not be forgotten when the time of trial arrives.— Char. Jow. The Vice President eleet (Gov. Tyler) called on the President of the U. S.

McLeod is to be removed to A'bany for trial, Signs of Early Spring.—It is said that the Martin retorns to the North this seasuon in Ma:ch.—Madisonian, THE UNITED STATES AND GREAT BRITAIN. We earnestly congratulate onr rcaders on the infcrmation; concerniog the relations between the United States and Great Britain which they will find exactly stated in the report of yesterday's Senate Proceedings.— Considering the rumors that have been in circulation, nothing could be more interest- ing to the whole country at the present mo- ment than these disclosures in the Senate, unless perhaps it be the chart of the princi- ples of the new Administration which may be expectec in the Inaugural Address of | the President Elect. | We jearn from the statement of Mr. Buchanan that, in regard to the Boundary Question, the Governments of Great Britain and the United States have agreed upon the main points of a Convention for the final adjustment of that question ; and that, in the opinion of the Executive, there is every reason to look with entire confidence toa prompt and satisfactory termination of the long negotiation upon this question. We learn, further, with great pleasure, that there 18 no foundation for the rumor that an angry correspondeuce has recently taken place between Mr Fox and Ms. For- syth, or any correspondence, the character of which would justify a call for its publics ty. y The remarks of Mr. Clay, whose wisdom and experience in our Fereign Reletions stamp every thing he says on that subject with a more than common impress, are no less important than acceptable.

Tt happened that tbe ten- der hearted. damse! had, at very time she put her name to the paper, & eau with whom she was well pleased, buM®ho un- fortunately, (according to report) took oc- casionally ‘a leetle too much.” The maiden was therefore under the painful necessity of addressing her “fondly loved one” a polite nole, stating her situation, the nature of the pledge she had taken, and the utter impossi- sibility of her ever after receiving his atten tion esa lover. “1 love you as potely as ever”? was the language of the note, * but my word has gone forth, aad bonor bids me respond to your kindness only in the light of a friend.” The young man found himself completely subdued. ‘The words, ‘“*T love you as purely as ever,” were too potent. Determined not to forfeit such devo- ted affection, he sought the earliest opportuni- ty to become a temperance advocate himself, signed the pledge, & is now a member of the Washington Temperance Society.

There is a most extensive and profound disgust throughout even the Suuth at South Carolina arrogance and assuimp- tion of a sublimated and exclusive purity so poorly supported by good works. ‘The very term “chivalry” has come to produce popular nausea, and the arrogation by her of the peculiar guardianship and champion ship of State Rights, has done more to un- popularize the old Repablican doctrines than any thing their enemies ever did or could do. The correspondent of the New York Express furnishes a brief outsine of Mr. Stanly’s remarks as follows : ing the floortate.in the afterpoon, retained it until the House adjourned; a litle past nines” His speech was altogether bis finest Leffort. High as Mr. Stanly deservedly stands, the remarks he yesterday made, when they shall appear in a printed form, will raise him still higher. He replied with great severity to the several speeches of Mr. Wise, and referred to the impracticable character of the Virgima pofiticians, in general. He said that North Carolina had cut loose from the Iéading strings in which she had for years been retained, and was now, he thanked God, free and indepen- dent. | He compared her preseat character with shat of her neighbors, very little to the advantage:either of South Carelina or the Old: Dominion.. He then proceeded to speak of the insufferable and ridiculous vanity of South Carolina members, who appeared to regard (hat. State as the, only part of the Union to be cunsalted on every question of importance, He proceeded to show the ridiculous folly of the opposition of South Carolina to the taxing of luxaries, as if she was more injured by such a meas- ure than any other part of the Union, He said that the farmers’ daughters and wives of many of the coanties of the State of New York, wore more silk dresses than the whole state of South'Carolina would con- sume in a century. “T canoot pretend to give even a sketch of the speech, which was one of the most ‘Mr Stanly, of North Carolina, obiains| -. : NOv34—VOLUME..IX. ~ WHOLE_NO, 450. adieien 7 [ merciless gance and Svuthern bragadocios sever re- ceived, and the value was enhanced by its éoming from a Soathern'man.

Where were the docuwenis on which they. were to found their legislation 2 He hoped: the committee would not act on such loose . es: timatea. Could gentlemen be awereof the conseqiences which would srise from this large system of pensions? Were they pre- pared, at this late period of the session, to go blind-folded into a measure drawing up- wards of two millions and a half from the Treasury? For bis part, he woul! not act upon so important a subject withont prop- er and correct information. In the course of bis remarks, Mr.’ P. al- luded to the speech of Mr. Stanly oa last evening, and intimated that he (Mc P.) would have to exercise proper caution, or he would dave the misfortune to draw down upun bimself the anger of that’ vindictive gentleman. And for fear of falling under that gentleman's puny’ arm, he would re- frain from saying what-he intended. © Allu- ding to the attack of Mr Stanly on the res- olutions of the Legislature of South Caroli-- na, Mr. P intimated that the member had shot his dreaded arrows at South Carolina with about as mach effect as the savage who let fy his arrows at the sun. The’ member had brandished his battle axe like Richard, and strode over the whole coun- try, dealing vengeance aronnd. The coutse of the member forcibly reminded him of the nursery rhyme ; “Who shot cock robin ? I, said the sparrow, With my bow and arrow I shot cock robin.” Immediately after Mr. Piekens conclu- ded Mr. Stanly obtained the floor. Mr. Stanly said; Mr Chairman,{ thought the other day, when my friend from New York(Mrc.

Harrison as Fresident of the United States took place yesterday, the glorious Fourth of March. by the Inauguration of the President at the Capitol, preceded by the iastallation of the Vice President, in the presence of an immense multitude of citi- zeas who had travelled from all parts of the Union to witness the Imposing and ing solemnities of the occasion. — For several days previously, the Metrop- olis of the Nation had been gradually filling with uisiters from the more distant States of the Union. Yesterday and the dsy previously, the contiguous counties of Maryland and Virginia and the city of Bal- timore poured in vast moltitudes and parties of eager cilizens, who travelled on in vari- ous ways, by land and water, on foot, in Cartiages, or in boats, to witness the inau- garation of their beloved Chief. It cannot reasonably be expected that we shall lay before the Public a very detailed or eccurate account of yesterday’s interest- ing -proceedings and ceremonies, To sat- isfy, Lowever. the demand for an early no- tice, we present the-following sketches of the scenes and ineidents uf the @ay: THE MORNING. Fatly inthe morning, long before starise, the shrill whistle of the Cars and the tramp- ting of feet along Pennsylvania avenue {o- wards the hotels and boarding houses, gave notice that our namber of visiters was great- ly increasing, and that the auspicious day of the Inauguration had arrived. The morn- ing broke somewhs: c'oucily, and the hori- zon seemed rather to betoken snow or rain. At eunrise a salute of twenty-six guns was fired from the Mall,Jsonth of their gun-room by @ party of the Columbia Artillerists, act- . ing under the command of Capt. Bucking- iham. Soon after the firing of these guns, | the entire body, apparently, of our citizens and numerous visiters, roused from their slumbers, thronged the Pennsylvania aven ne and our principal streets, and gave lo ibem a very animated and lively appearance the throng continoing to increase until eight os dock, when the various delegations, mili- lary companies, Tippecanoe clubs. essocia hhons, and citizens assembled at iberr res- pective posts. ‘ THE PROCESSION. Soon after ten o'clock the Procession moved from the head of Four-and-a-half street, when a salute of three guns announ.- ced their march towards the quarters of the President elect. flaving there ree-ived Gen. Harrison, attended by his personal friends, the Prooession moved on from the quarters of the President eleet: up E street (o Pith street, up 11th to F street, up F street to 15th street, down 23 street to Penn- sylvania avenue, down Pennsylvania avenue 10 the south gate of the eastern yard of the fs bolly, Fshal) always may have been their errors of judgment—and , The resolution was then unanimously agreed | Capitol, exact C gramme. Zz Occupying a4 of Brown’s hog sion as itipassed’ of Pennsylvania! to the Capitol The scene wes Interesting and im- posing The ladies every where, from the the windows on each site the Avenue. war- ed their handkerchiefs or hands in token of theit kind feelings, and General Harrison, returned thenr smiles and greetings with re- peated bows. . The enthusiastic cheers of the citizens who moved in the Procession were, with equal enthusiasm, responded to bv thou- sands of citizea spectators who lined Peno- sylvania avenue, or sppesred at the side windows, io the numerous balconies, on the tops of the houses, or on other elevated stands, At the head of the procession was the Chief Maishall, who was mounted on a fine horse, suitably capatisoned ; as also were bis two Aids. The military portion of the Procession was remarkably Gineend soldier-lke, Much of this, no doubt, was owing to Major Fritz, of the Philadelphia National Grays, whose company and excellent band of music were objects of particular notice and admiration The military marched along in the fullow- ing order: 1. The Potomac Dragoons, commeaded by Capt. Mason, a fine body of Cavalry, consisting chiefly of citizen soldiers from Georgetown, We never saw the Potomac Dragoons tugg out so well, or appear to so great ad van. 2.7 olumbia Artillerists, command- ed by Capt. Buckingham Their revolu- {lonary costume, venerable apperance, and precise movements, as they marched along, with their two field-pieces, gained them great credit. 3. The National Greys, of Philadelp bia, commanced by Major Fritz, a fine body of men, wel! disciplined and soldier like in all their movements. 4. The Washington Light Infantry, com- manded by Captain France, a full comps- ny, numbering about eighty muskets, all well uniformed, and showing (o more ad- vantage than on ang former occasion. 5. The National Bloes, commanded by Capt. Middleton, marching well, and also making a soldier-likke appearance. After the officers and soldiers who fought under Gen. Harrison came THE PRESIDENT ELECT, mounted on a white charger. and accompa- nied by his suite of personal friends. On his right were seven citizen marshalls; on bis left were the Marshal of the District of Columbia and his four Aide. | Then followed, in the order of the pro- | gramme, the delegates of the Young Men’s Convention, held at Baltimore, May 4, 1840. The delegates bore along with them in the Procession some very handsome banners; as did also the citizens of each State and Territory, as they appeared with the res- spective Tippecanoe clubs and associations | Among the banners which seemed to at- in the pro- le position in front pticed the Procrs most public part tract very particolar notice was a very large | ; one from Cayuga county, New Y ork, repre- j senting Gen. Harrison in military costume on horseback. Severs! other very hand- some banners, having pstriotic and suitable Mottoes, eppeared with the South Carolina anc Alabama delegations, and with the del- egation fiom Prince George’s county Mary- land. Fro latter county the delega- tion was tous and spirited. Bea- sides Ome and appropriate ban- xhibited a vehicle drawn white horses, all suitably bearing bells, containing & apparatas, &c., with the operatives working therewith as they moved in the Procession. This curious and interesting machinery, which was furnished and direct. ed by Mr. Capron, of the Laurel Factory, Md., attracted unusual notice. Along with the Prince George’s delegation, was also seen a large Log” Cabin, (the em- blem of a sturdy yeomanry,) drawn by horses; the sidesof the Cabin had suitable ; Motloes and inscriptions. On itsroof were namerous white flags, bearing the names of the several States that voted in favor of General Harrison The Virginia delegations were also rematk- able for their numbers, fine 8ppearance, and handsome banners. The delegation from Loudoun county had @ good band of music with them. ‘The delegation from Winches- ler was very nuMeroas, and had also a band of music. . The Corporations of Washifgton and Georgetown, the Tippeeanoe Clube, and the citizens, of both places turned out in great aumbers and with suitabie distinctions, ban- ners and mottoes. Not the least interest- ing part of the Procession from George town was the long line of Georgetown Col- lege Students, who appeared in the college uniform, with their Faculty, bearing a hand- some white silk banner, representing with various moll cs, a golden eagle with extend- ed wings. APPROACHING THE CAPITOL. The approaches to the Capitol presented a scene to gratify theeye of @ painter, while it sweiled the patriot’s heart. ‘“he throng- ing crowds, the groups, the solitary foot- passenger ~end then the stately coach, wit: its freight of fashion and beauty —all eager, all animated, all in conversation, and some in song—a!l pressing onward toward one central point, told of the deep, the universal, the heart-stirring interest fell by the People 10 THE Peopre’s Frrenv. Here might be seen a little fellow of seven or eight, his alittle benser, purchased probably by the | savings of his pocket money for many days, on which, as the wind sported with 1, was, turned out to view a ‘log cabin,’ or the ‘He- | to of Tippecanoe.” ‘Shere was a group of black laborers, tricked out in all thes Sun- | day finery, with saucer eyes, Staring at the bright figures which passed them, or gezing al the borse of some sommy spyrenilire, car- =\ 9 ie >: chubby cheeks rosy with Joy, his bright eye | sparkliog witb the bus:le and gladness of so | novel a sceury waving proudly over his head | flollng aJong the Avenue, at oI ry and manifest dengér of His r horned along a marshal of the bis rose of purple, and his yellow scious, apparently, of the dign i10n. flere strode on some mi gliitesing in blue end gold, aad fe the prouder to think that a Soldier as a Patriot, was to-day to assume preme seal of dign:ty in the Republic. Ladies, too, (God bless them!) the ladies shared, fully in the excitement, of the hour: their eyes glancing, their cheeks glowing, and thei tongues (for ladies have sach things) were io rapid and harmonious m tion. Every thing was in its best bib and tucker. Every thing you met, every thing you saw, seemed to cry out, “This is the long-wanted, the long-wished-for day of the INAUGURATION !"? AT THE CAPITOL. In the S aate Chamber, though resved for the privileged persons, there was a crowd atan early hoor. Long, long before any thing official was to be seen or heard, the Ladies? Circular Gallery on the one band, and the Gentlemen’s Gallery on the other, were filled to overflowing. What eager looks, what rich and Justrous shawls, what waving handkerchiefs, what fluttering fans were thereto beseen! Nods of recognition, smiles of pleasure, peering looks of eager curiosity everywhere met the eye. When some full uniformed officer of the Army ot Navy entered the Hall, with his straw-col- ored plumes and his massive epaulettes, what a craning out of snowy necks, what an exchange of inquiries, what looks of awa. kened interest pervaded the circle! Scott and Gaines, Macomb and Jones, and Wool, presented a brilliant group, calling up asso- ctations connected with days that are past ; While on the opposite side might be seen a civil group of no less interest, embracing (he nominated members of the New Cab. Inet, inspiring auguries not less cheering of of future prosperity and glory. The Senate (convened by the President 10 Extra Session) having been ealled to or- der by the Seeretary, the oath of office was, by order of the Senate, administered by Mr. Clay to Mr. King, of Alabama, (on his re-election for a new term,) who wag then unanimously re-elected President pro tem- pore of that body. Mr. King thereupon took the Chair of the Senate. The Diplomatic Corps now entered the Hall, and assumed the seats provided for them in front, and on the left of the Chair. A most brillient sppearance they made, dec- orated, as they were, not only with the in- signia of their various orders, but half cov- ered with the richest embroidery io silver andingold. Had this group of distinguish- ed personages however, been stripped of all external designations, the eye of the mast casual observer eould not have failed instant- ly to recognise the marked difference which distinguished them from us, as foreigners Cuvier might, very possibly, have told, from their heads alone, the different nations from which they came, On the opposite side of the Chair ao Dpear- | ed,soon after, in the strongest contrast,the ar- ray of the Judges of the Sup. Court, tn their black robes, with their grave, intellectual, reflecting countenances. There was a sim- ple, quiet, unpretending air about this body of highly diguified men to which outward adornments would have added nothing but an alloy. The late Vice President and the Vice President Elect, became the next objects of notice. ‘They advanced together to the steps of the President’s chair, when Mr. Tyler, having been presented to the Presi- ding Officer, took the oath of office, and then ascending to the chair, which had becn vacated for bis reception by Mr. Krag, deliv- ered, with much grace, dignity, and self- posession, an address to the Senate of mod- | erate length marked by modesty, propriety, and sound sense; a copy of which will be found in another part of this paper. The new Senators were then successively sworn in, and took their seats. At twenty minutes past 12 o’clock, the warning note was heard from the table of the Vice President, when Gen. Ilarrison en- tered and took the seat prepared for him in front of the Secretary’s table. He Jouked cheerful but composed: his bodily health was manifestly perfeet: there was an alert- ness in his movement which 1s quite aston- ishing, considering his advanced age, the multiphed hardships through which his frame has passed, and the fatigues he bas lately undergone. After he had retained his seat for s few Minutes, preparations were made for furm- ing the lire of procession to the platform prepared for the ceremony of the Inavga- raticn, erected over the front steps of tbe Portico of the east front of the Capitol. The Procession Wae in the prescri' ed order as yesterday announced by authority of the Committee of the Senate. oo It was not without great difficulty and very severe pressure that the body of citi- zens who followed and aecomparied this (rain passec' out of the east door of the Ro- tando 3 and the inadequate and dispropar- tionate size of that entrance (always a de- fect at least, if mot a deformity) was never more sensibly mantfesied.

AT THE PRESIDENT’S HOUSE. Nearly tne whole throng of visiters ac- companied the President to h.g new abode, and a8 many ae possible entered and paid their pesonal respects to him. The whole building, however, could hardly contain a fortieth part of them; su that very many were unable to obtain adm.ssion atall. A popular President will on such an occasion always be surrounded by more friends than it is possible for him to receive and recog- nise otherwise than in masses. THE CLOSE OF THE DAY Was marked by the repetition of salntes from the Arullery, the whole city being yet alive with a population of stangers and ree- igents, whom the mildoess of the season invited into the open air IN THE EVENING. The several Ball-rooms and places of amuse- ment were filled with crowds of gentlemen and ladies attracted to this city by the nov- elty and interest of the great occasion. In the course of the evening, the President of the United States paid a short visit to each of the Assemblies held in honor of the In- avguration, and was recéived with the warmest demonetrations of attachment and respect. THE END OF TIE DAY. Was marked, as its progress from the éarly morning hour had been.by qutet and order, not only remarkable but astonishing, con- sidering the vast crowd of persone, the ex- citement of the occasion, and the tempts- tions which it offered to undue exhilaration.

The Senate took up the resolution to dis- miss Blair & Rives from the office of Prin- ters to that body, and after some discussion. adjourned till to day, when the subject will again be taken up, and probably be dispos- ed of. It can hardly be expected that edi- tors who have been heretofore so grossly abusive of the present majority in the Sen- ale can be permitted to continue to hold an office which is at the disposal of those whom they treat with contumely. Jt is our hope that they may not only be removed,but thatthe position they have so long occupied may be filled by some person or persons more acceptable to the majority of that bo- dy, and the majority of the people outside.

OPERATION FOR STRATISMUS OR SQUINTING. eye bad been operated on by Dr. Wells, of Co lambia, a few minutes before we saw her, four squinting, but even io that short time, after the uperaiivn, the Cefect was entirely removed and amination, would te which eye had been de- fective. us wilh an opportunity for doing so, on “‘Thurs- day last. ‘Ihe subject was a young lady aovut eighteen, or aineteen, one uf whose eyes was so distorted, as apparantly to look directly across the other, the pupil beiog almost buried io the inner angle of the eye. It was one of the worst cases of sqointing, or es we should call it, cross- eye, we have ever seen. Dr. W. proceeded to divide the internal rec tus muscle, the unnatural contraction of which prodoces this obliquy of the eye the divis— ion of which in the other case wGipticed, gave immediate relief, Io this instance Oye ik did not afferd the expected relief: Dr. W. then inatitated a search to disccver the cause, and found that there were two distinct recti muscles an unusual thing in the mechanism of the eye— afier dividing the secood muscle, the eye became perfectly straight—at least entirely Jost the ori- oinal defect. ‘Tbe eye will of course tarn slight ly out, for a short time, until the wuscle has a- gain become attached to the ball, farther back, and which will give the eye iis full and natural motion. To satisfy yourself whether the uliimate suc- cess of the operation would prove as complete as it appeared at first, we called on the young lady the Monday after, and found that the eye had not the stightest inward tendency. We have felt interested in giving a somewhat minute detail of these cases, as some of our rea ders may be suffering under this distortion of the eyes, aod it may induce some of them to seek relief, by no means painful, and which cer tainly promises as great certainty of success as any surgical operation can, as is evident, from the fact that Dr Dieffenbach of Berlin, who seems to bave been the first operator in this case, has operated oa about three hundred with success. ‘The operation iiself is very simple, requiring scarcely more than a minole, and ac— cording tothe Wedico Chirurgical Review, from which we make a short extract, no one need to fear any injury from the operation ; for the Kd- itor remarks, that it can be done by any one who can operate at all. We would therefore urge those laboring under this defect, to seek the ap- propriate remedy. Certainly noone need to hesitate, in entrusting an operation so simple, to the hands of a Sorgeon like Dr. Wells, whose attainments in medical science, skill and expe- rience, place him deservedly among the first Surgeons in the United States. We give below, a short extract from the Lon- don Medico Chirargical Review, which will serve to show our readers the interest this litile yperation is exciting in Europe, as well as io this country. 7 The Editor remarks, In“ our expericry®e we remember nothing like the rage fur dividing one of the recti muscles, ‘The surgical world is beimn-full of it. ‘The first quegiion one surgeon asks another when they me performed this operation ?” not done it, is really an object « Ife stands alone, and people pit at him. Poor Dr. Frantz, wha operation into London was sag buried % the shoal of operators, and if he has since bis feeble voics, it has been lost amidst the din. As the proceegiug may now be viewed as an established one of approved benefit, of wide otil- ity and of such easy execution, as ty admit of a- ny surgeon's affecting it; as every one in fact who can operate at all, ought to be able to oper- ate bere, we shall oring together some of the facts or the suggestions tbat have lately appeared in connexion with it,” &c.

THE SUICIDF. A TALE OF TRUTH. ‘‘ How dreadful are thy judgments, O Lord!” The occurrences, of daily intercourse, afford sufficient fact, to draw a moral from —but how much more impressive and start- ling must be the end of the urgodly. The unvarnished tale I am about to relate, came under my own personal observation. How often have I viewed sin, without emotion, and passed the den of vice, without a thought —and as if, to throw a drea¢ful lesson, in my way, | witnessed a scene, which | trust may never again happen. During a stay at the little village of L—— a frontier station, | became acquainted with the D ’s, 8 family of respectability, and shared tho comforts and protection of their hospitable roof. D——wasaman of unblemished character, and noted for bis good works. | have seen him go to bis corn crib, and di- vide its contents with the suffering widow, and many a poor wanderer received sis life from this charitable man, when perhaps ev- ery door was shat, and the cold look of dis- irust and scorn met the imploting cye of the invalid. Taken with open arms, watch- ed over with the kindness and solicitude of a father, his own garments to clothe the nee- dy, and when restored to health, the bard earned savings of a life of toil, remunera- ting the attention of the physician, and sup- plying the wants of tbe cestitute. Such was D and oh! how often have I thought of bim, envied the serene busom, and good heart, which led him to the per- formance of acis, worthy of an angel, and unknown among the wilds in which he lived D. married into a family, by which means, he became related to the object of this sim- ple story ‘* Roberts"?--wbo married D’s wife’s sister. Roberts was 4 man of natu- ral smartness, and as | understood, received a collegiate education, in one of the best in- stitutions in the United States. Thinking himself above the population at large in natural sense, aided by a supertor education, and perhaps led on by ungovernable pride, he determined, ‘‘3s afterwards he acknowl- edged "—by artifice and dishonesty, so a- mass a fortune, gained by vice, from the supposed simple undiscerning public. His profession was that of a lawyer, and svon be gained a seat as Judge, in the courts of bis country. For some time he prospered. That wealth witich he coveted, appeared lo flow to him in asteady stream. But soon hig hopes were dashed to the ground, and flu@tied with continued success. be threw aside the cautionary movement of concealed resorting to the misguided attempt, of vice, overthrowing truth and justice. citement prevailed among the people, with regarc to a sat on the court docket, ** A swindler prosecuted for obtaining by anfair ’ n p belonging to a neighbor.” | Tease ain a g need not be en- | heartless and false doll of dress, whose ev- ‘ery word is for effect, and every thought a | | desire for admitation; who can sacrifice do- The particulars of tbe tna tered, suffice it 10 say that Jucge Roberts, tock a ferge bribe from the swindler, given Great ex- | to produce a favourable isave. The house was thronged with the people, and after a long discussion, the Jury, retired to consid- er the case, and returned with a verdict, as it should have been, in favor of the injured party. Judge Roberts, remonstrated, plead- ed, commanded ; in vain, the jury were ob- stinate, and the swindler received the sen- tence of imprisonment and a heavy fine for his rascality. Exaeperated beyond measore, he oper ly proclaimed the bribe given to the Judge, before the Frowded house, aad the guilty Roberts, fed from the court-house to conreal the workings of shame bursting from his pride stricken breast. Through the in- tercession of his friends, suit was not brought against him, but he no more filled the dig- nified seat, of a public administrator of jus- tice. As a common resort, of the discover- ed sinners, Roberts sought to destroy the apbraiding of a guilty conscience, by drown- ing reasen in the buraing potations of the drunkerd = Jn vain was every effort tried, to sooth him, and gradually to biing him to a sense of duty. Confinenfent, reasonings, during the short intervals of conscieusness, even the kind implorings of a gentle affec- tionate wife, failed to excite a single spark, to igmite the soft flame of repentence with. in bim ; but instantly destroyed all the gen- erous and heavenly feeling of the repentant sinner, and again, and agsin, plunged deep- er, and deeper, into the descendiog vortex to internal damnation. I[t was ao awful sight to behold the once highminded, intel- leetual man, fallen from the rational being to the most degraded around the gaming ta- ble, and the most blasphemous of the drunk- en sots. His property was soon wasted, his home a domestic hell, and more than once the upraised arm, dashed the heart- broken wife to the floor, answering her en- treaties and meek behavior, with the most awful curses and blasphemies against his maker, for casting him out from the path of duty. At last none dared to approach bim, and one evening, he seriously maimed a by- stander, so tbat 1t was thought prudent to confine him. Thrust into the dark dun- geon, instead of exciting teelings of re- morse and repentance, be gave way to the most horrid curses, fruitlessly attempted to tear down the strong walls, with his feeble strength wrought up to the highest pitch, and no doubt aided by a disordered mind, the midnight air re-ecboed his revilings, and hoarsely did he shout to the listening vil- lagers, many a dreadful phantom, as at ap- peared before his heated imagination. Sud- denly all was still, and the keepers of the Jail, thinking that he bad sunk into slum- ber, from the exertions and fatigue, attend- ing his atteM®pts to escape, thought proper not to enter his cel! until morning. At !ast morning broke, and we entered the damp place of confinement—but instead of be- holding the abandoned, in a state of un- consciousness, attending the inebriating draughts of the wine cup, we beheld him, suspended, hung, from the grate of his win- dow! Qh how dreadfui was it to see, the awful end of a man, seot by bis own hands, into the presence of the Almighty God. | turned and sickened, as I thought of his still more bitter curses, in the fiery flames, perhaps at the present moment, “ pre- pared for those that hate God.’? Never shall 1 forget the look of agony, and the fiendish expression of despair, an bia coun- tenance,—the distorted eyeballs !—and con- vulsive clasp of the bloated hands, over the guilty heart. But Judgment did not stop here, bis wife in the course of a month sick- ened and cied. After eight or ten days of insensibility, and tbe most excrutiating pain, she passed also into the presence of her Creator. —Neither possessed the hope of the christian. And so were the proud and wicked cut down, truly showing tbe truth of the passage “10 the midst of life we are in death.”? ‘The infant child, became the adopted daughter of the hospitable D who protected the young blossom, from the tude, unkind treatment, of the cold winds of adversity. I went with the executor. to the deserted house, and as the goods were passed into the wagon’ rather boldly. from more idle curios'y, tock the liberty of ex- amining the books of the departed Roberts, to find out his taste and selections. On the top of a pile of books, my eye caught ihe inscription of “duly Bible.’ IT snatch- ed it down and opening it, surprised at the holy wrt being in the possession of one wiio publicly denied the Saviour—I found the following lines written with much care: “ Beware of pride, for itis the arch de- ceiver—beware of intemperance, for by it, ‘thoughts of cords, razors, and millponds, as a | ! have fallen, and by it f must receive eter- oal damnation !— J. Roberts.” From the date. it was written $3 days be fore the melancholy ead of this wretched mac. Was not this en. awfal judgment to the one, and an awful lesson to the thinking mind! As I turned away my heait swelled with gratitude to God, for having protected me from the numerous enticing snares aod glittering temptateons, set in the path of the unWary.

Love.—Many are those, especially of the softer sex, who might have passed the first years of youth, without knowledge of this passion, which they more frequently imagine than feel, had they not acquired its rudiments from female companions, or the perusal of novels; somewhat in the same manner as hypochondriacs suppose themselves to experience the diseases of which they either hear or read. ‘The ephe- meral'fancies, young ladies dignify with the appellation of love, no more resemble the real sentiment, than do the imaginary mal- adies resemble those for which they are mistaken ; but the effects of both are equal- ly dangerous. Many a girl has madly rushed into a marriage, believing herself as madly in Jove, who has had to deplore her infatuation through a Jong life of consequent penance; and many a malade wnaginaire bas sunk under the results, of a supposed visionary disease. Whatever romantic notions may have by the inexperienced been entertained, or whatever may have been said or sung of first love, it is not so arbitrary or durable 10 its inflaence as many persons imagine ; and that, however unromantic it may sound a second love is not inferior in the hopes, fears and tenderness to whicn it gives birth.

Some cf our citizens, in- censed at his conduct, gave him warning to leave the Towa, or be would be drammed out—per Laps tarred and feathered.

Another Altempt to break Jail.--A Pris- oner killed '—An altempt to escape was made on the afternoon of Saturday last by fifteen prisoners confined in one of the wards of the jail, severa! of whom are men of the mos} dangerous character, and now remain in jail awaiting their trials ia adja- coat counties, to be removed thither on their own demanc. The sewer extending onder ground to the Falls wae the means of egress that they firs: selected—this sewer being necessarily accessable to the occupanie of the prison apartment, but the attempt to escape through that oulet was detected by the Warden, Mr. Disney, before they could effect an entrance into its interior. Being foiled in this attempt, the prisoners retreat- ed to their wards, the inner door of which they strongly barricaded by means of a bench and spikes, and bade defiance to the officers, threatening death toany who might enter, and fiercely declaring their determi- nation to persist in their efforts to escape until they should succeed. Boiling water and missiles, thrown through the gratings, were also employed by them to prevent an entrance of the officers. At an early stage of these proceedings, the Warden had des- patched a messeuger fora portion of the City Police, whose arrival had no effect in calming the tumult and exeitement of the prisoners, which had now extended to the inmates of adjoining wards; aod, as the on- ly means of quelling the revolt, it became necessary to fire upon the chief insurgents, and one of their number was killed; the others then yielded, and were securely iron- ed. The person killed was Wu.

When, on the next day, the Senator from Ala. bama (Mr. King) addressed the Senate, he must say that while tbat gentleman was speakiog, be bad thanght that there wes, on his part, a stud- ted, a premeditaied,and, as _befbelieved, a pre— coveerjed design to make an assault npon bim and his character.

Under these impressions 'o the privileges of debate, and guided by n, a few days since, of the elder editor of the G®be hewspa. per, whom it was then proposed tou dismiss from ‘hese rules, Mr. C. had epoke offence to that Senator. But it was due to the Senator from Alabama as well as to himself to state that he had sicce received satisfactory information, on which be placed iroplicit reliance, thaiphere had oeen no Purpose or intention on the part of that Senator to offer any personal affront to Mr. C. or to cast the slighest imputation on his eharact2r or honor. Mr.C. had therefore been mistaken as to the design which he had Sopposed that Senator to entertain; and he must have entirely misappre- bended the language employed.

THE INAUGURAL. We invite the attention of the reader to the extracts below, in relation to General Harrison‘s loaugural Address. The disagreement among the Locofocos:as to the merits and character of that paper,we consider a decided commendation, are founced in a settled. perpose to oppose i!, whatever its merits—Certainly indicating that there are no glaring faults. All the exiracts are taken from strong Loco- focu papers. Speaking of the Address as a literary produc. tion, the Raleigh Standard says— “ We are mot disposed to be captions in com. menting apan this State Paper ;abat one eannot but be struck with the marked difference bet ween the Inaugaral of Harrison and the productions of the upright and talented Statesman who pre ceded him, and of the immense intellectual su pertorily of Mr. Van Buren, as well as of all the other Presidents, over the present incum- bent.” On this subject, the Lincoln Republican says : ‘‘ The Address is well written — perhaps rath- er pedantic in style, bavieg the usaal allusions to Roman and Grecian history, which character ize the General’s writings on all subjects and all uccasions,” Sarely if there was '* immense superiority ” in the productions uf Alr. Van Buren, the critic of the Republican woul, hardly bave said that the Address was “ well written ” ‘Fhe Camden Journal, afier raising some doc- trinal objections, says— The paper is ably drawn up, and is occa sionally eloquent.” How very different are the optics through which these Locofocos see things! Of that part of the Inaugural which alludes to the subject of abulition, the Standard says -- ** His remarks on the subject of Abolition are very unsalisfactory.” Oo the same part, the Baltimon {epudlican ** On the subject of Abvuli:ten he is more ex. plicit,avowing nis disapprobation of any attempt on the pari of the people of one Siate tu inter— fere with the institotions, and internal concerns of oihers; and it is the ooly, or almost the Onetespecting which be is so.” ~The Western Carolinian saye— * In the. whole address we find no reference to great principtes, or fangamenia| doctrines, but it is made up of vague disquisiliun on our furm of Government,” &c. ‘The Camden Juurnal remarks— “There is one point in this address, however, which is explicit, clear, distinct, and easily un- derstood.” The Journal, then, it seems, is a liitle more liberal than the Carvlinian. But hear what the Lincoln Republican Says respeciing the sadjecis treated on in the Inaugural. “ "These measures are a National Bank, a na- tional debt, a distribution of the proceeds of the pablic lands, and others necessary to their adop- tton.” Let the above extracts suffice to show the conflicting views of the LocofucojPress of Gen. Harrison's loaugural Address. _ ‘TENNESSEE.

We wrote an answer to this cull; it_ was not published by our friends of the Carolinian. ' We published several articles of the eharacter indicated in the ‘call ;*? these have not been co- fied.

The 11th Congrestional District com pos- ed of the counties of Meclenburg, ‘Cabarrus aod Lincola, will, we trust, at the next elec- tion, be delivered from the shackels of Lo- cofocoism. ‘I'he ‘hardy and uasophisticated yeomanry of these counties, form the right materials, and when they open their eyes to (he errors and delusions into which they ave been plunged by the Van Buren lead- revolutionary stamp. Their good sense; moral honesty, independence and patriotism will place them in the front ranks of the friends of Liberty, Harrison and reform ; apd we rejoice to learn that they have cho- sen the most suitable individual they could have selected to lead them on to glorious trrumpb. Col. Danie M. Barrinoer, of Cabarrus, has been nominated, (and has ac- cepted the nominetion,) as the Whig can- didate; anc the prospect of his election, is, we understand highly flattering. This,is what every true friend of his country ought to desire and exert himself to accomplish. The people, at this efisis, ought every where to put their soundest, ablest and prrrest men in places of trust and responsibility. Col. Barringer would be an imveluable acqvisi- tion to the North Carolina delegation in Congress. We regard him as one of the ablest and most deserving men of his age in the State. ‘To native talents inferior to none, he adds acquiremeats in lisersry, le- gal, and political knowledge, of the highest order—extensive, thorough snd practical. fle has cistinguished himself as an able de- bater in our Legislature, and by the literary prodattions of his pen, he has proved him- self one of the most elegant and classical writers in the State.

His opponents are Green W Caldwell, Fsq. and Dr. Jas. H. Lytle—the former the regular nominee of the Locofoco party, and tbe latter a member of that party out upon “his own own hook.” a Some of the Opposition Papers (we are friends of the Administration now) con- sider it strange that Mr. Clay does not ac- cept an, office under Gen. Harrison; and think there is more in it than meets the eye. Why should he take office ?, What distinc- hon would any office confer upon ilenry Clay? As was once well said by Mr. Leigh, of Va. in speaking of Kentucky’s favorite son—‘'fle has already secured a fame that will live ss long ae pore Government—a renown that will survrve thq marble Mon- umént that will cover his grave—a renown more valuable than any station, however exalted, could confer.” — Raleigh Register. ‘‘ When our foes have triampbed, I have never yielded—when they have advanced, I have never retreated—when they have shouted, | have ever shouted back again— when they have relaxed, | have pressed on the harder ” We ficd the foregoing passage in a Speech delivered by the gallant Wisz, during tbe last Congress.

It is impossible to contemp!ate this sub- ject without a fecling of the deepest hemil- jatfon and regret that mankind have so long been the slaves of ignorance and supersti- tion. When we consider what an unlimi- ted sway dreama exerted over the minds-of the superstitious ancients, and, even now over tie pagan idolators of the East, we can readily find some cause for their delus- sion, in the character of the age -in which they lived. But what apology can be of- | fered for the poor, credujous creatures ‘of the present enlightened sge, who attach such importance to these wild rovings of the fancy. Can any thing be said in exten- vation of their guilt? Is there any plea an- der which they may shelter themselves from the animadversions and ridicule of their more enlighteted companions? ‘To all these questions we auswer emphatically, no. ‘lheir ignorance has subjected them to censure, and until they become better in- furmed, Jet them. continue to gather the ey vit, to Congratulste you upen your ac- 0 to the bigh offiee of Premdcent of and the electioa of James H.

The patient was a little girl, two and a half years old. Her parents were called to her bed side, about 10 o'clock at night, by a strange noise, and found her apparently, in the jaws of death, from that fearful disease, the croup, ‘There was no medicine in the house suitable for the case: the fire wee out, so that water could not be speedily heated ; and the pa- rents felt that there was not time to get a phy- sician. Io this dilemma, they remembered hav- ing read of a chilé being relieved of similar dis tress and danger by the use g6wald water.

From the many press- ing engagements, Dr. Dickson already has, he deems it impracticable for him to be recognised ds one of the editors, though he will cheerfully ose all his influence otherwise. to promote its in- terest ; the sobscriber therefore, proceeds to is- sue this Prospectes in his »wn.na me, with a hope bat he will be aided in the undertaking, by all the friends of the ‘Temperance cause throughout the coontry, and that the paper may suon have an extensive circulation. : Friends of the Te:aperance Cause! to you we make a most earnest appeal—while thoa- sands of dollars are annuallyexpended at thea (res, at circases, at the raee track, at groceries, while no pains are spared, the luxury of retire— ment and ease foregone, and nd labor deemed too severe to advance the interests of political aspi- rants, can you not do something in a cause that must be dear to every true patriot, philanthropist, and chiistian ? Recollect there are but few, ve- ry few, such papers io all the Southern conptsy. The Western part of North Carolina, the Wes— tero part of Virgioia, and the Eastern te ‘Tennessee particularly, oeed a periodical of this kind, and it is for yor now to say whether they shall have it. The very low price at which it was fixed b the Convention, will make it necessary, that a very large subscription be had, before the publica- tion of it can be justified. TERMS. The Western Carolina Temperance Advocate will be published on a medium sheet, in qaasio form, each number making eight pages, and will be farnished at the very low price of Fifty Cents acopy.

Recollect there are but few, ve- ry few, such papers io all the Soothern country. The Western part of North Carolina, the Wes- tern part of Virginia, and the Eastern part of ‘Tennessee particularly, need a periodical of this kind, and it is for you now to say wheiher ibey shall have it. : The very low price at which it was fixed by the Convention, will makeit necessary, that a very large subscription be had, before the publica- tion uf 1t can be justified.

WEEKLY MADISONIAN, Far the next Sessivun of Congress. 1 RNHE approaching session of Congress will, | duvbi less, be ene of great interest. It will cluse up some, at least, of the affairs of Mr. Van Burefi's administration, and usher in the more auspicious dawn of a new end better order of things. ‘Ste scenes in Congress will.probably be exciting. On one side we shal! sro the strog- gics of an expiring faction, aod on the other a umphant party, armed with the confidence of the people, imposing judicious restraints epun the convulsive throes of their opponents, and shield ing their country as far as possible from the dan gers of maligaant and reckless viclence, and en ceavoring to avert the embarrassments which defeated men, sung with disappointment, will seek to thiow in the way of the new adminisira- tion. Ou the third of March next, 12 o'clock, P.M.,Mr. Van Bureo’s dull star will vanish, and immediately in its place shall we behold the rising san of Haraison. On the 4th of Maich, General Harrison, as President of the United States, will attend in the Chamber of the House of Representatives to take his oath of office, according tothe direc. tion of the Constitution. Oo his erlrance, as on the entrance of Washington, and Jefferson, and Madison, the audience will out be able to stifle their disposition to appland. Having taken his seat on the elevated chair of the Speaker of the Honse of Representatives, the Vice Presi- dent, Mr. Van Buren, (if preseot,) and tbe Sec- retary of the Senate on bis right, the Speaker and Clerk of the House of Representatives on his left, and the Chief Justice of the United States and associate Judges at the Clerk's table, he will proceed to deliver his insogural speech, after which he will receive the cath of office from Mr. Taney, Chief Justice.* He will then retire, and such huogzss will go up from the multitede around ibe Capiutl as have never been beard. Such will be among the interesting incidents which will oecupy the columns of the Weekly Madisonian. The -paper will contain teading speeches, spirited sketches of the debates, and a summary of the results of the proceedings in Congress, together with the general and politi- cal news of the day. Jt will contain the official retarns of the vote in the F.lectoral Colleges for President, which will be opened in the presence of Congress, and the Inaugural address of the President.

Wine Apple.—This isa veautiful red apple, flauish form, middie size, fine and agreeable flavor, is much esteemes, and ripens in the ‘all months. The tree 18 thrifty and growing, bears very young, and very sbundaotly ; they are frequently to be met with in this State. and many of them in this county. Sth. Spitzenburg, of which there are two-kinds, the Vew/own Spilzenburg and | the Esopus Spilzenburg. Both sre excel- lent fruit s-the later ie considered prefera- ble. The Newtown is a beautiful red, tio- ged with yellow —rich fine flavor, and is to be used from October to January ; it does not keep well. The tree is thrifty and handsome. The Esopus is » splendid red and beauti- ful feast, large in size, rather oblong in form tapering towards tbe blossom end, and the inside yellow, rich, juicy, bigh-Mavored and excellent; it 1s best from November to March. ‘The tree grows large and spread- ing, and bears well after a few years, but pot very young. Mth. Rhode Island Green —This 1s 2 large apple of cloudy green color, but vel- lowish when ripe, in form varying from flat to roundisb. It is much esteemed, end ex- cellent for cookivg. 10th. Pryor’s Red.—'This is consider- ed the best apple thet is grown in the Un- ited States {i 1s said to be a large fruit of fine color, and somewhat vaties in fosm. The 1onide is yellow, very tender, rich, sac- charine and fine flavored, melting in the mouth like a soft peach. It 1s yet a very rare tree. 11th. Bedl-flower.—T his is a very supe- rior apple of large size, objong form, yellow color, sometimes tinged with red, ridged towards the blossom end. It has long been esteemed as one of the fingst apples in the Philadelphia market, and when known is equally prized in the South and West. The above are a few of the many varieties of apples, which we have no donbt would thrive well in this country. One of two trees of each of the kinds we have named; would be sufficient to supply a family with frait, for al! ordmary purposes. 7 In a nnmber of the Rickmond Enquirer, we find the following opinion of Chancellor Kent, of the controversy between Virginia and New-York : Chancellor Kent’s Opinion of the contro- versy belween New-York and Virginia. ‘The Coustitution of the United States bas provided for the surrender of fugitives from justice, belween the several States, in cases of ‘treason, felony, and other crimes,’ but it has not designated the specific crimes for which a surrepder has been made, and this has led to difficulties, ag between the States. Thus, for instance, in 1889, the Governor of Virginia made application to the Gsovernor of New-York, forthe surren- der of three men, charged by effidavit as being fugitives from justice, in feluniously steultng and taking away from one Colley in Virginta a negro slave Isaac, the prop- erty of Colley. The application was made under the act of Congress of Feb, 12, 1793, ohapter 7, sec. 1, founded on the Constitu- tion of the United States, Art. 4, sec. 2, a8 being acase of treason, felory, or other crune, within the Constitution and the Law, and certified us the statute directed. The Governor of New-York refused to sur- | render the supposed fugitives, on the ground that slavery and property in staves did not exist in New-Yo:k and that the offence was oCta@ crime known to the Laws of New York, and conséquently nota crime within ihe meaning of ihe Cunstitotion and Leyislative authorities of Virginia, on the other hand, considered the caee to be with- in the provision of the Constitution and the law, and that the refusal was a dental of right. It waa contended that the Consti- tation of the United States recognises the lawful existence of slaves as property, for it apportions the representatives among the siates on the basis ofthe distinction between free persons and other persons, and it pro- vides in Art. 4. sec, 2, for their surrender | when escaping from one state to another: | that slaves were regarded ss propertyy in neaggy allthe states, snd protecied 43 such sad partrealariy in Now York, when the tent to administer the affairs of the Govero- ment does this prove Mr. Van Buren to be. be found a surplus of forty millions of dol; lars in the Treasury, end he basnow gone out of office leaving the Treasury deficient to that amount. might have been involved bad Mr. Van Bu- rea’s (riends succeeded in piacing bim at A NATIONAL DEBT.

The New Orleans Bulletin of Wedoesday, furnished later and interesting intelligence from Mexico.—The state of affairs in that country Is any thing bat proaperons. The want of money is very great, and the government devices to ob- tain it,are singular and shew extreme oecess!ly. A law has beeo passed, imposing a peraenal tax, by whieh all males over the age of eigh teen years are to be divided into five classes, according to the value of their properly, uf the prodac:iveness of their basiness. The first class are to pay $2 per month, the others less—the lowest sum bring one bit per month! One half of the sums raised }3 ap- propriated to support the government of the State in which it is raised, and the other lo paying the interest and principa: of the nation— al debt. ‘The Government Jvurnal, in eommen- tng on the necessity of this taw, says the offi- cers of the Central Government have not been paid their salaries for a log time, that the ar~ my have been without pay, and finally that no- body in the pablic employ has reeeived pay.— He argues that this state of things cannot con- tinue, for this reason, if no otber, that thevarmy; when furnished with neither pay nor rations, will revolt and appoint ober rulers, with a view toa change of measures. . Gen. Arista has addressed a formal petition to the National Congress, protesting against the anolment of the law allowing the introduction of contraband goods throngh the port of Mata- morog, at ihe same time besceching of the gov- ernment the religives fulfilment of ils contracis made throagh bim with the merchants of Mex ico, Matamoras and.other places He gives-ma- ny facta to show the utter destitation of. the sma}] army ander his command when ibe con}, tracts wore made & hig want of resourees tu keep themn from absolate starvation, and adds that the constitutionality of the law onder abich the contracts were made, was never questioned while the country was invaded and the exis'ence of the government threatened ; but only thought of when the enemy-had surrendered and the danger disappeared. : We should infer that the Mexicans have a good deal more to think of at home, than of in- vading Texas. The propriety of immediately acknowledging the Independence of Texas, is freely discnssed in several of the Mexican papers. One party is for granting’ the boon, because they conside! peace absolutety necessary for the mere exis— tence of Mexico aa a nation ; another is for ma- king one desperate effort more to plant their standard on the banks of the Sabine! Private advices state that Mexies is anxious to embrace any plausible excuse for paiching up peace with ‘Texas. The English Poor.—'The following facts, re specting the condition of the working classes and acknowledged paupers in England, requires no comment ‘They are extracted from the last Re- port of the English Register Geseral. ‘I'he con- dition of the working classes io many of the large towns, is really Jamentabie. At Liverpool there are 7,862 cellars described in peau “ dark, damp, dirty,aod t!}-venti aa live $9,000 of the working: people; there are also 2,270 courts, in which from two to six fam iles reside, and few of these courts have more than one outlet.

In 1837 21,800 persons had fever in that cify, which haa a popa lation of something like 250,000. With regard to paupers in London, it is observed that the whole number of persons in London districts who received in and out door parochial relief fur the year ending March, 1838, was 77,186 —of these 19,972 suffered with fever, 7,017 from syanchas, and 5,692 from typhus.

The federal Locofoco organ of this cily shows up the consistency of its party and the bitterness of its warfare. Speaking of the Inaugurel Address of President Harn- gon, it adopts the following quotation. from the New York Sun, which is denominated a neuta! paper, but which For all practical } purposes is Locofoco. ae + We have but little to aay in regerd to it, except that we are dissppointed in aot, finding in it the least indication of what is to be the specific course -of poljcy. of the | oew administration, ft says not a wdre a8 to the proper means of_restoring the cur- rency to soundness—not a word for or 8- gainst a national bank—not a word for or word in reference ‘to the public !ands—nol a word in relatron to out. difficultiés with Great Britain—not a werd in relation to a general bankrupt law—and gives not a sin- gie intimation in regaid to an extra session of Congress.” . But ag all the fault possible must be found with the Address, tH federal organ alluded to quotes In the same peper the following sentences from the Globe “No mao of intelligence can read the Inaugural, ‘however studiously it veils the names of thiogs mesnt, without perceiving that it portends @ natronal bank, national debt, distribution of the-national domain, and all ihe ¢ubsidiary measures necessary to or consequent on their adoption.” Here are (wo quotations, treating on the same subject, and expressing directly oppo- site opinions, and yet both are sdopted by the managers of the Bangor federal Y.oco- foco organ. Party madness robs men of their consistency, and party blindness cheats them of honest jadgment. The object aim- ed at is defeated by attempting to prave too much. The disposition to fing faylt with- out any just reason must be apparent te all, and cause all hohest minds to-toathe the authors. This quotation of the Globe against the Sun is amusing enough, certaiuly, but not half ‘go diverting as the Globe of the 234 of this month agrinst the Globe of the 4th of the month, (from which the above quotation 18 made.) “No man of intelli- cence can read the Inaugural,” says the Globe of the 4th, “wéthout perceiving that it portends” this, that, aod the other. The Globe of the 28d, per contra, discourseth as follows : ‘*We have just had an insagoral address from the President elect, the largest one ev- @ delivered, and not a word in it to give a glimpse of the course of the new Ad- minsiration in relation toa single ques- tion, foreign or domestic, which occupies the attention of the country ” Lere’s consistency, with a witness! 7 Seizure.

The old Gen- eral is reforming one of the most flagrant abuses of our Government: [CIRCULAR. } DEPARTMENT OF STATE, ? March 10, 1841, § To the Hon. Tuomas Ewina, Secretary of the Treasury : Sir: The President is of opinion that it is a great abuse to bring the patronage of the General Government into conflict with the freedom of elections ; and that the a- buse ought to be corrected @herever it may have been permitted to exist, and to be pre- vented for the future. He therefore directs that information be given to all officers and sgens in vour De- partment of the publie service that partisan interference in popular elections, whether of State officers or officers of this Government, and for whomsoever or against whomsoever it may be exerrised, or the payment of any contribution or assessment on salaries or official compensation for party or election purposes, will be regarded by him as cause of removal. . It is not intended that any officer shall be resirained in the free and proper expres sion and maintenance of his opinions res- pecting public men on public measures, or in the exercise, to the fullest degree, of the constitutional right of suffrage.’ But per- sons employed under the Government, and paidfortheir services out of the public Treasury, are pot.expected to take an ate live or officious partin attempts to influence the minds or votes of others ; such conduct being deemed inconsistent with the spirit of the Constitution and the daties of public agents acting underit; and the President is resolved. so far as depends vpon him, that while the exercise of the elective fran- chise by the People shall be free from un- due influences of official station and author- ity, opinion shall also be free among the officers and agents of the Government. The President wishes 11 further to be announced and distinetly understood, that (rom all collecting and disbursing officers promptitode in rendering aecoun's, and en tire punctuality in paving batences, will be rigorously exacted, Io his opinion it 1s time to return, in this respect, to the early practice of the Government, and 'o hald anv degree of delinquency on the-part of those entrusted with the public money just cause of immediate removal. He deems the severe observance of thie rule to be es- eential to the public service, as every dol- lar lost to the Treassry by unfaithfulnese in office, creates a necessity for a new charge upon the People. I have the honor to be, sir, vour obedient servant, DANIEL WEPSTER Similar letters have been adddresged to other heads of Departments. } and to secure as mach information as possible re- lative to che geographical interests of Great Bri- tain.

A Correspondent of the “ New York Com- mercial” suggests thalt,-immediately apcn the meeting of the next Congress, they should take into consideration the expediency of adupling some measure to check the intolerable propenst - ney of the country by long Speeches. The { writer proposes that the cost to the people be conspicuous!y published with every speech ; as for example: “ Mr marks, io the delivery of which be occupied the atteotion of the House —— days, at an expense tothe pation of thousand dollars.” The people would thea be able to see in a moment, whether the article was worth so much money ax not—they would have an opportunity of com- paring cust and value.— Raleigh Reg. Excellent suggestion,—let it be carried oul, and we feel confident it must have a good effect, —([Watchman. BC Gen. Harrison gave a few days ago, an instance of liberality of.feeling towards the van- quished Adininistration, very different from that displaved by “ the Greatest and Best,” when he came into office. ‘This was no less than ao ia- vitation to the !ate President and Cabinet, to dine with him, in company with the new Vice President and Cabinet.

The second case is that of Gen. Van Rensse- laer, not Jong since Pusimsster at Albany, New York. This case caps the climax for malice, hatred, and cruelty. Nay,jt was equal to mur- der itself With all his violence of temper, with all the promptings and malign influences of the Kitchen Cabinet, Gen.

The inhabitants and their chiefs, with the sovereign, determired to have nothing to do with the Missionaries, and retired to a.fort. Al this junctare Capt. Croker endeavored to effect a reconciliation; the natives treated the captain with the utmost deference, and in a conference they listened with patience tothe must insolent terms of surrender. The terms were: “© That the fortress then oseupied by the hea- thens, with two other small and less furmidable garrisons, should be surrendered and immediate- ly demolished—all furniture, stores, Sc, to be remaoved—that the fortifiers of the garrison should resome their former @vocations and in lercourse with the missiogaries and their con— verts on the same terms as before the dispnles with astonishment and delight the evening ['@ missionaries being at liberty to preach with= before the verses were written,—Piiloso- phers may assign a cause for it—I have no suggestions fo make.

While spell like silence floais around, And you mysterious object mark ! Far o'er the glassy sorface see ‘Ihe branching root of some dead tree, Peep out above the shalluw sea, Like water spirit dark, Like some lone spirit of the water Gazing upon the fair moonlight, Or sighing for some earthly daughter, In silence ane in night, Does sorrow dwell beneath the wave, In coral grot and chrystal cave ? Ah! do the nymphs and naiads know To weep! Dues now some fair Undine Beneath yon bay of silver sheen Hicing her face in tresses green, Drop amber tears of woe, Ab! sorrow o’er the earth With joy goes hand in h Changing and mingling pain and mirth ‘Fhick as yon silver sand. ‘The songsters on :heir sammer wings, ‘The fairest aod best of things, Find mirth still miagled with alloy. Ah! sadness seemeth every where Upoo the earth, and in the air, And "neath the water, even there, Grief mingies still with joy! Hark! Listen ! Doth masiog, lone, Aod dismal, lift my fancy high ? Or wheaea this sad and sighiug tone Of music fluating by Now swells it o’er leaf and bough, Beneath alung the water vow, And ah! how very sad it seems!

While negotiations were in progress, Captain Croker ordered three -carronades to be brought from on board his ship, and dragged to an emi- nence commanding the heathen garrison, being distant about 500 yasds. ‘These guns he had mounted, and brought a supply of ammunition {fo enable him to drive the natives from the furt, should they attempt to resist, or refuse to com- ply with the conditions offered them. The Paaisin entered the fort, and said that uolesa the natives should yield in an bour, he would storm the furt. They refused to yield, and the quarter now assumed a more aggravated character : . “* Scaling ladders, &e. were hastily constrac- ted, and a large party of seamen, marines, and converted nativés, to the number of 1,700 or I,- 800, were assembled on the eminence ready to open a fire on the fort. ‘I'he garrison, ere the time allowed had expired, sent to the European camp ty state that they were willing to cuncede all things demanded of them, save the humilia- tion to which they imagined they would subject themselves in at once meeting aod holding 1n— tercourse with their foes; they would rather not mee! th to face fur some time to-come.

APPLES. Perhaps there is nothing among the farmers of this country, which effords as greata profit proportioned to the cost of cultivation, as Apples. The various ways in which they can be prepared, both as a delicate and substantial. dish for the table at all seasons of the year, together with the them the most desirable of the fruits belong- ing to this climate “We think it is to be regretted, that there are so féw orchards, and especially that there are so few that are teally good. ‘The ground on which apple trees grow, can be made undera proper system of management, as profitable with, as withoutthem, whilethe trees themselves are little or no troable or expense. In plan- ting an orchard, it should always be re- membered, thet it is just as easy to grow good fruit, as bad ; the labor is precisely the game, and one well-bearing apple tree of a good spevies, is worilf a score of scrubby, ill grown, helf-barren ones, There are near two hundred different species of apples, most of which, we are inclined to think, would do. well in this State, particularly the Western part. We will notice a few of the different spe. ics, which are generally considered the best, sons desiring choice fruit. Ist. The June Apple, of which there are three varieties—the Yellow June, a small late in June.- Fie tree is of small stow growth, does not bear young—but very a- bundantly after a few years. ‘This isa de- sirable species of the apple, in consequence of its being the first to ripen in the season. Red June. This 1s decidedly the finest and most beautiful of al! early apples.— When fully ripe on the tree, they obtain a most brilliant’ red color all over, and the tree bears at an easly age, and more abun- dantly tha any other equally early apple, yet known. The tree gtows thrifuly, and very upright. The fruit is of fine size, ob- long form, and ripens in July and August. Sweet June. This is the earliest sweet apple cultivated in the Syuth or West, and is fully equal to the sweet Bough, so much esteemed at the East. The tree grows thriftily, upright and beautiful ; bears early and in great abundance, the fruit ripens in July and August, : 2u. Summer Pearamin.—This-is a fine apple and much prized ; it is*of- moderme size, oblong form, and a fine rich sub-acid taste. The tree is of rather delicate growth —has a tolerably close t5p, not very large, and bears in great abundance, Fruit ri- pens in August and September. 3d. Yellow Horse Apple —The tree grows thrifuly, strong, and bears well—the fruit is of a beautiful yellow color, some- limes tinged with red, large size, rather oblong, ofa rich and pleasant acid taste, fine flavor ; and ripens in Angust and Sep. tember. 4th, Maiden’s Blush, is an appla highly prized. It grows on a handsome, thrifiy growing (ree—is of fine size, pleasantly sour, of a liglt color, with frequently a fine blush of red on the sunny side. It ripens in August and September. Sth. Lindley’s Nonparicl.—This is one of the finest apples of its season, It was raised from the seed 60 or 70 years ago, by Thomas Lindlay, of Clatam county in thie State. It is rather of flat form, of moderate i by few, and perbaps surpassed by none.— on record of the humor of frish post boys, bot we fact, that they are the-sarest crop, render4 and most of which can be procured by per- | charic at Lancaster, Pa., named Geiz, has in- |. v nearly round yellow fruit,and is full ripe| is third season a |O« already comme eod on the 20th Jone next. §C3> Fur particdigiaysée bills. . ~ DY, LONG. ~ March 6, 1844—1/$2 ee ; State of Mortharolina, ROWAN COUNTY: In the Court of Equity ~ Spring Term, 1841.

When the toils of the we ad passed, Gaston might be seen, with on his shoulder, moving towards the river where his canoe was fastened, and springing lighi- )'y toto it, dashing through the foaming wa- ters, and among the rocks, as safely and cheerfully, as if passing over a smooth and glassy lake ; and onihe following evening, he might be seen again braving the rusbing current, with the same careless ease, but more thoughtful brow; for who ever yet parted from the girl of his heart with the same joyful aspect, which he wore when going to meet her? Let us now reture to the wedding day. “ Have you heard of the Indian that was found murdered on the bank of the creek this morning?” said a young man, after the company had assembled, to Mr. Lee. ~ ‘No,’ answered Mr. Lee with surprise, ‘Thad hoped from the long peace that has reigned, we should have no more such out- rages against the poor Indians. Bat how is it possible, sir, if they are thus shot down that we can expect them to be quiet?” ‘The body,’ continued the first speaker, ‘was found by some of his tribe; and they jimmediately threatened vengeance if the murderers were not given up. But that is impossible ; because we do not know them.’ At this moment a loud crash of thunder echoed through the woods, so suddenly as to make all start from their seats. = ‘Well, my friends,’ said Mr. Lee, as soon as all was again quiet, ‘we shall be as likely to suffer from this rashness as the of- fender, and must be preparec. # am glad you have brought your guns with you, for unless they come in too farge a body we shall be able to hold out against them ~ This was said with that calmness which a frequent recarrence of such circometances will produce as he re-hung bis rifle, after preparing it for immediate use; the bride renterec the room, in all the loveliness of. graceful beauty. Few orn her person, because nonec natural grace and elegance. jet black, was simply parted back, and fastened bebi forehead of matble whiten mingling the wild roce with other for flowers, was the only ornament on her head. Her neck and arms were perfectly bare, and seemed as if they, with her small fairy fect and the rest of her figure, had been made 1D peture’s most perfect mould. The storm, which, had before been heard hut at a distance, seemed now to have ai- tained its violence, and to concentrate over the house. Peal after p€al of thunder came ringing through the hollows, each succeeding one apparent!v louder and more crasuing than the former Fiash upon flash, of the quick and vivid lightning, streamed out, resting awhile upon thé surrounding scenery, and striking terror into the hearts of the more supersticious gueste.

That whoop, however, served but to nerve the hardy pioneers, and chase {rom their bosoms the fears which the wars of nature alone created. Richard Gaston, from custom, assumed the command ; and with that coolness and self-possession, which indicates ondaunted bravery, proveeded to give such orders as the time would allow. ‘ Let the females,’ said: be, ‘ go.-above and lie upon the fluor, and we,” my brave boys, willshow them what stout hearts and strong. arms can do in defence of beau:y.— Six of you go in the next room, aad see that the villians enter not, except over your fle, and gath- fend this opening,’ The reader must not suppose that all was still during the brief address. ‘The Indians, whose numbers amounted to sev- eral hundred, had fired once, and not being able,on account of the rain,to load again now attempted to enter over the ruins of the chimney, and through the windows. ‘The lights had been extinguished at the first yell, and all was dark, save when the flash of lightning revealed to view within, the fearful odds against them without.

Becoming more infuriated, as those who bad gone before, fell, under the con- stant fire of the whites, the savages, not, now in a compact body, attempted an en- trance ; and the whites still cool, if daager threatened not, waited until they reached the very breach, and then every man, with his wuzzle almost touchiog the Indians, discharged his piece. ‘The savages waver- ed, and then ‘ell back, amid the shouts of _.

It was advocated by Crawford, Dallss, Lowndes and the whole republican party that supported the War, and was sign ed by the great leader of the party, Mr. Madison. It isa notorious fact that in N. C., every member of Congress, with a sin- yle exception, who belonged to the republi- can party and was in favor of the War, vot- ad for, and was in favor of, the Bank of the United States, while the Federalists were op osed to it. Yet in these modern times. it hs become the interest of political lead ders opposed to a Bank, to denounce the advocvtes cf such an institution, intendéd for the benefit of the people, as Feceralists. The Covrgress of 1832, by large majorities in both nlouges, possed a Bank Bill and the then Prestdent declared in his Veto mes- sage, that hig objections were to the details and to the proposition to re-charter the old Bank; tut ssid of he had been called upon, he could hava: furmsted a plan for a Bank that would be both Constitutional and ex- pedient.

The National Intelligencer of the 5th inst., says : “The House of Representativés, ‘still pursuiog its onward course, has determined to bring to a close on Friday next; ((o-mor- row;) tbe Debate on the Fiscal Bank Bill, will beyond doubt pass the House, pretty much in the shepe in which it came down from the Senete, There are some particulars, however, in which the bill might be well amended ; one especially, without amenement of which we doubt whether the stock will be ¢ertain- ly taken up by capitalists. We tefer to the provision which not only excludes foreign - ers from becoming subscribers to the stock of the Bank, but probibits holders of the stock frora selling it to foreigners. Such a pro- vision, it is obviows, deprives the stock of much of its value; just as land or any othe: property would be greatly lessened in its valoe by a condifion annexed to it tgat the owner shall not have a right to dispose of it. This rertriction is, moreover, directly against the general interost of commerce and of the country, because it forbids the remittance of the stock of the Bank of Eu- rope; instead of mach specie, when the bal- ance of trade shall chance to be against us. We cannot conceive how the Senate could have cohdeseended to admit such a provis- jon into-the bill. Bot certain we are that the public interest, if not the reputation of Congress far intelligence and discernment, requires that it should be stricken out. It isa sufficient goard egsinst foreign influence in the Bank,.surely, tbat, by another provis- ion of the proposed charter, none but a cit- izen of the United States can vote upon its stock. Atrother provision in the present bill, which it is thought, would: liat the range of selection of competent Directors is that which daplares that no Director shall be al- lowed at eny time to have a discount from the Bank of-more. than ten thonsand dollars. Merchants in extensive business, those who sre best qoalified for Directors of such ao institution, dea} in much larger amounts of money than this, and would not be willing to énter into the direction of the bank un- fer such. a restriction. This limitation, therefore, ought either to be stricken out or enlarged. SUPREME COURT.

Intended revolt of Slaves.—The followiog are the particulars of the contemplated revolt of the slaves in those parts of Louisiana and Mississip. pi bordering on the river. The pews created some sensation at New Orleans, particularly as it was exaggerated in its repetition. The overseer of the plantation of Robert J. Barrow, of West Feliciana, having occasion to arise from hie bed late io one of the recent bot nights, heard what he believed to be negroes conversing in one of the quarters. On silenily approaching the vicinity and listening, he over- fieard two of the slaves discussing the subject of rising against the whites. “Chis led to the ex amination the next morning of the two fellows, when they confessed the fact, and gave informa— tion that led to the arrest of several others,— The alarm was immediately spread abroad, ar- reais were mace in various plantations, and it was found by the confessions that they all agreed in the main facts, that there was to be a generul rise, and that the first of Augast was the day agreed upon. A white man, 4 carpenter, who had lately done a job of work for Mr Barrow, was also ar rested on suspicion, and examined. He said he had nothing todo with the plot—that he had never said any thing to the negroes on the sub- ject, but acknowledged that they frequensly spoke to him, and informed bim al! abons it. This white man, with about 40 negroes, all of whom had confessed their knowledge of the intended rising, were in the jail at St. Francis—- ville, guarded by 2 company of voluntecrs, — Their examination by @ competent tribunal, was to have commenced yesterday ai 10 A. M. At Woodville, we learn numerons slaves were confined in the jail, having confessed to the same facts as those arrested in Feliciana. Capt. Laurent states that on s'opping at Point Coupee, to communicate information of the sit- sation of the affairs above, several gentlemen recollected occurrences of recent cate whieh tén- ded to confirm the suspicions that the slaves of their section were patties to the wicked plot.— Doct, —— said he had been asked what day of the month it was by mote negroes, within the fast ten days, than in seven. years before —and there had beer annsual assemblies of the slaves in rather bye-places, for several Sandays past. Some of the negroes have confessed that the combination was from Bayou Sara to Natchez. It migy oot be amiss to reniark, that tbe plan—- tations in Peficiéria and “filkinson coanty from which the slaves were taken who are imprison— ed, are oweed by the most weulty sad respect- able pladters of the States, whose kind and ho- tnane treatment of their slaves is proverbial. stil) retains the of his menial facul- ties; hie-enanciation iedistinet, and his physi- more thta 80. yeats old, a a “We mebfme incident tthe Aeiket Hone : or ave i eee Sette ip.

We would not, for the wealth of every man concerned in the assauli, have the thoughi upon: our dying pillow that we even remoie- ly helped ia this deed of infamy. Wetake this resolute stand that we may set men to thinking.

The blush of shame may not maatle upon a Lyncher’s cheek when he perpetrates the effence, but in due season the whips of con- science will Jash him most severely whea he may seek most fervently for repose. We say to every man who participated in this wotk of death— Go to your bosom— Knock there ; and ask your heart what it deth know. Every violation of this kind shakes the stability of law, Haman was hanged upon his own gallows. Robespierro fell under the hands of those he bad taught to mor- der in cold blood.

The Judiciary.—From an early and long con- tinued siudy of elementary Law, my mind has ever been immbued wiih deep reverence for the Beach —State and Feder]; —ao independent Oepariment in our 3ystems of government, and which, hulding neither the parse to Corropt, nor the sword to terrify, addresses itself only with the mild toree of persuasive Reason, to the jia- teil gence and virtua of the whole community.

All the most valuable offices of the Post Office Department Were under the control of the Presideat, who had permitted bat ve- ry few changes. Under this state of things Mr. Granger had been forced to coasider his, duty to the prine:ples he advocated and to himself ‘personally. After the deepest reflection, he couidot doubt. He felt that if the executive power should continue to thwart the will of the People, as expressed through the bailat-boxes: gag ihroogh their Representatives ig-Congress+—if bald polit- ited to retain the pleces which they had so long abused, to trample down Whig principles; snd sf, af- ter all this, he remained in offiee, the Whigs throughout the nation—ay, the Whigs of Old Ontario, by whose partiality he had been so often sustained, would believe that, for the enjoyment of office, be had bertered his and their principles, and that ‘Frank Granger was not tbe man they took bim to be.” Although fully convinced of the contse it;was bis duty to pursue, Mr. G. ssid he did not feel at liberty to ect without the ad- vice of the Whig delegstion from this State, who gave their unanimous approval of :bis determination, Then he did resign, ready ; !o go into the ranks to sustsia the Wing party. Mr Granger said that here he had s single word to ssy, as much in justice to enother as himself. It had been insinuated i8 public prints, and circulated in secret whispers, that the member of Congress from this district had received bis nomination with Mr. Granger that, in a contingency like thit which has arisen, his place was to be surrendered. This was e misereble calumny, without the slightest shadow of troth. He (Mr. Granger) had never even heard Mr. Greig named as a a candidate until inform- ed of hisnomination. He need not say how well the trust confided to him had been ex- ecuted ; but he would say, in justice to his ewn fectings, teat, Qurirg +46 Waute or ine delicate and perplexing responsibilities grow- ing out of bis position in the Government, and the surrender of his place, the constant coupsel and advice of that gentleman had been most useful to bim. Mr. G. said that on bis retorn he met at Albany Mr. Greig’s letter of resignation, which had been follow- ed by the representatives of the Whigs of Ontario by a nomination more grateful to his feeling than any other occurrence of his political life, Mr. Granger then reviewed the position of the Whig party of the nation, and par- ticularly of this State he said that our ene- mies bad supposed that those who differed from the President were to wage war upon him, and thus produce a breach in our ranks. The proceedings of the State Convention, recently held at Syracuse had dispelled that illusion, snd put matters Upon the right ground. Should the present Administration earry out Whig principles, it was entitled to the support of the Whig party; aod from no one would such a course receive a more hearty support than fiom him, (Mr. G.,) wherever he might be placed. ‘There were some few indications that improper officers would be reformed.

This, of course, was to be expected from his whole existence of constitutional.difficulties in the mind of the President, he assisted to have the bill which the Secretary of the ‘T'reasu- ry was directed to send to the-Senate as a projet, made as perfect as possible, consist- ‘ent with those difficulties 5 he endeavored to pass that bill; imperfect though he thought it, and though it was, he discoun- tenanced the introduction of another and different one, which there were the best reasons to fear the President would not ap- prove; he favored thealtempt of Mr Rives to restore, by ab amendment, the substance of the Treasury projet, and when that had been defeated, and the bill containing the compromise provision was sent to the Ex- ecutive, he sought to secure his official ap- proval, In all this he manifested that fidel- ity to she party, delicacy to the President, consideration of anfortuaate and unantici- Ppated circumstances, and constant pursuit of a practical public good, which the coun- try expeeted, indeed, from him, but could scarcely expect from any other man. When.the putpose of introduciog anoth- er bill, after the veto of the first, was adop- ted in Congress, Mr Webster no dovbdt svught to bave itso framed as to avoid the the objections of the Presideat , ‘and proba- bly bad no doubt it would receive his signa- ture, until the appesrance of Mr Botts’ Tie ter. From that moment as you cobWect from Mr Ewing’s letter, the President man- ifpated oeant ass annantsval .—---2--+- --.4 anxiety, and a very sitong wish that the whole matter might be laid over until the next session. Mr Webster thought this reasonable and expedient, under the cir- cumstances, as did Mr Ewing, if 1 wnder- stand his letter, and he communicated his opinion anJ his desire to his frieeds in Congress. The bill was passed andsent to the President, and then, as Mr Ewing tells the public, and as I believe the truth to be. Mr Webster submitted a written and oral argument to the President to persuade him to give it his sanction. You see, therefore, that 1f in this matter there had been on both sides, or on either side, faults or errors, Mr Webster did ail that he could do— all that man could do— in the sarcession of events, to prevent them. Down to the moment when he a- dopted and declared his determination not to retire from office, there was no one within or without the Whig party. who. did not appreciate his sound judgment, his per- fect fidelity and his admirablé counsels. | have nos a doubt that thesober second thought of the country will do justice to (his determination. His colleagues have retired, from the same conviction that jn fluenced that portion of the Whigs in Con. gress who have presented an address to the public, to wit: that there no fonger exists any hope of a satisfactory arrangement of the question of the bank, under Mr T'yler’s admiuistration. Mr. Webster thinks the case not hopeless ; be is fur another trial ; and in another sense than they would ex. hort us— Ne, cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. He thinks there is yet a reasonable chance tbat the President and his new Cabinet, ai! Whigs, selected by a Whig, may present such a scheme as sliall receive the vore of a Whig Cungress. You perceive, fromhis recent letter, that he deems a bank, as he always bas done, in some useful form, to be wholly indispensable; and for so great a good he does not think the country ought to be required to wait four years !onger.— In this hope, and with these Opinious, he remains in the Cabinet. He remains at the post which the good President assigned to him, & at which Mr. Tyler desires him to remain. f[lesees I have reason to believe, no cause to doubt that the President is in- fluenced by a constant regard to the public interest, and to the duties of his great office —alihough it ia (roe that echemes of a bank have struck his mind differently at different timee, as being within, or not within the! constitutional principle he had adopted ane avowed. In the considerations suggested in the concluding language of the last voto message, there may perhaps-be found for this anexplanation and ax excuse. Youu have, then, in'a werd, Mr Webster's whole course on this sebject. He thought as did the entire Cabinet, that the projet of a oil!

Spirit of the Times, New York, Octobe: 22, 1841. +. Lhave just had the pleasure of an ioter- esting conversation with my frrend A. B. Allen, Esq., of Buffalo, New York, who retarned last week ia the London packet ship “flendrick Hudson,” from an Agricul. tural. Tour in Eagiand. Supposing that your readers wonfé hike to hear e little about Mr. Allan’s mvesements, I send you a hasty line. He says that there 1s nothing abroad that will compare with our unrivalled Roadsters and Zrolters, and that if we continue to cultivate the breed with care, embraci such stock as Abdallah’s, Belfounder’s, Mes- senger’s, &c, we may eventually become large exporters. Many inquiries were ad- dressed to him bn various occasions tespeci- ing them, and be hes brought home orders to purchase a few stylish ones. I observe that the London *‘Farmer’s Magazine” bas called apoo Brother Jonetban to makea shew of his trotters at the next meeting of the Royal Agricultural Society, and ¢s it is open to the whole world, I trust thet some of our spirited breeders: will do so next year at the annual meeting in July in Bris- tol. The English cart horse Mr. A. elso thinks inferior to the great Pennsylvania wagon horse, and is of opimioh thet our racers here have more game or dottom than theirs, and would beat them in heats of three and four miles.

There ere other breeds of horo- ed cattle which he esteemed highly: as the Flereford,-the Suxsex, Devon, Ayrshire, and Seotch Highlanders. Mr. Rotch had previously imported very superior South Down sheep from the cele- brated flocks of the Duke of Richmond, Mr.-Grantham, Mr. Elman, and others, and these now arrived cannot but prove a val uable cross upon them. A beautiful Shep- berd’s dog for Mr. Rotch also accompanies these sheep, of a breed so superior that it requires no breaking in for the management of the woolly flock. 1 was much pleased with the famous Dorking fowls, that, like Goliah have an ex- (ta toe, and fat ocessionally to the great weight of Slbs. Some beautiful pheasants, the game bird of England, and the cross of which on the common barn fow! produces the game cock, are among the importation. In Swine, Mr. Alien went into a thorough examioation, from the different species of the wild boar from Asia, and the forests of Germany, kept in the Zoological Gardens, the various kinds of Chinese, to all the most approved breeds of England. ile pronoun- ces the Serkshire 98 uniting more good qua)- ites ia bim on the whole than any other; and es size in them hes been generally call- ed for et the West, he has brought home specimens that stand three feet high, are of corresponding length, and will easily fat to 800'bs.; but for fear these should not be large enough, be has added the great Ken- ilworth breed, of a height of four feet, and which the London *‘Fermer’s Journal’ ¢s- serts will fat to the enormous weight of 1,700!bs. Mr. Allen thinks 1,800!bs will be the maximum, but adds, with quiet nai- veite of expression, “if this does not prove large enough for the Southwest, | will next year import 9 Rhinocerus that swings three tons!"——But fancy that there will be no necessity for this, and that the advocates for size will now ery out “enough!

In seeds, he found tbe British farmer quite as careful in selecting for sowing as in choosing breeders for his stock—a mat- ter now little attended to at home. The implements of busbandry he thought geo- eraily cumbersome, complex, aud needless- ly expensive. Some things, notwithstanc- ing, woald be worthy of American adop- ion. Of the corn laws he does not think there will be any modification that can substan- tially benefit us, though Sir Robert Peel, in order, to quiet the manofactures, may pro- pose a smal] abatement of duty. But Mr. Allen takes the startling ground, that, if be woold consult America’s benefit alone, he would make them to stand jost as they do now; and he defends this position by say- ing that it would greatly promote emigra- tion of worthy, substantial peeple, and that the population, wealth, and strength thereby procured to America won!d be much greater than if the ports of Great Britain were open to the free importation of grain.

Oor attention has been re-called to the consid eration of this subject, by the perusal of Govern- or Painn’s Message to the Legislature of Ver- mont, which will be found in another part of this paper, and which we commend as having a good deal uf sonnd jadgment, and excellent common We think with him, that it is the only monarchica! featare in oar form of Government ; and it is difficult to understand how it should ev. sense. er have been engrafted in our Republican I[nsti- tutions. The Goveroor congratulates the “Green Monantain Boys,” over whom ke presides, that their forefaihers were too jealous of liberty toal- low such a power a place in their Constitution. But we beg his F.scellency to understand, that the pairiots of Vermont are not singnlar in that respect. Ourown ‘Goon op Norta,’? were as jeajous of liberty in this particular, as our Northern friends. The power ‘o forbid the pas- sage of such laws as the People’s Regreseota- tives may deem wholesome, is not vested in the Governor of North Carolina: and never cao be, and never could have been. We say this, be- casse it is within the memory of several living witnesses that the existence of this ‘* Velo pow- cr,” in the United States Constitotion, was the great round of objection t» ‘t, when it was pro. posed and the prineiple cause of its rejection in North Carolina. For be it remembered, that # wa3 at first rejected by our State, and bul for the immense inconvenience of remaining a ‘ singa- Jarity,” surrosnded by the other States of the Union, we are assored our ancestors never woald have come into the anion with the kingly power in ofe wan to forbid the passage of wholesome laws, retsined, in as full furce as ever. Fo the hands of very gond and very great men, steh as were the first five Preaidenis alshe Vai- 16d States—no great abuse of thie power, could happen : the srme-could ba said of any other fextore of sovereignty: indeed, Philosd@iiaie end Statesmen agree that if a man of perfect wisdom and perfect purity of heart could be found, a dee pStiem would be ihe verg-best Goveramont that cotfd be devised.

We regard it as a mighty ques- tion, and trom the ‘ Inmbering afar off,” we be- lieve the nation are deginoing to look upon it as it deserves to be regarded—a feature cf Monar- chy that accident or inattention or a habitual de- ference to old forms has fixed apon us, but which as freemen, we ought not to stand. ; Batterflies that flutter in the warmth ef court favor, and who know nothing of the sterling good sense that prevails among the hardy yeomenry of the country, may think and say that the Pres;- dent will be more wise, more patriotic and virto- ous than the People’s representatives, who come together to speak the peop!e’s wishes —these same persons if they lived onder a menarchy, would say that “‘ the king could do no wrong,” and that the right of kings to govern is of ‘‘divine origin,’ bot oat systeas is bused on different ansumptions. In every other feature of our Government, we recogoize all power 3 coming from the People, we hold that it is foul aspersion to say that the People cannot govern themselves. If this be so, why should we bave a power to superintend that of the People. and to say whether they decided wisely and justly. I» not this lapsing into the old heresy that the People cannot govern them— selves? We have consumed some more of the time of our readers than may perhaps please some of them, but we deem this a subject that ought oot to slumber, end we for one, mean to examine it freely and fully. The New York election bas proven as disas- \rous to the Whigs, as the worst Locufoco could wish. Except in the city, where local causes operated to distract the Locos, and where the Whigs elected three Assemblymen and one Sen- ator, the whole game has well near gone for them in the Empire State. This back-set would seem to be a tremendous one for the Whig Party not only ia N. York, bu: in most of the States that have voted during this year, ard it is well it has come sta time when so little is at stake, if there had been more at issue ho:vever, the result would no doubt have been different. The Whigs have been most astonishingly inert. In New York aloe, the number of votes was less by fifty thousand, than was polled at the Presidential election. ‘This cannot be so always —the Whigs are hard tobe aroused, but when they are up, their rush is terrible, That they will not permit the Sub Treasury to be esiablished—that they will not let the Distribation Law be repealed — that they will not permit Treasury Notes to is- soe agaio in lieu of paying the debts of the Na. tion ; and consequently, that they will not permit Mr. Van Buren again to be the President of this Nation, we thiak is so well settled, that whenev er these are the matters to be acted on again, the Whigs who constitute a large majority of the peo- ple, will then again be at the polls. They have something else to do, than.always to be fighting political battles, and to be wasting their time in political brawling. ‘They have corn to plant and gather—wheat, oats and rye to saw and reap:— they have cotton crops.to attend to—they have every kind of business that can be thought of to do, being mostly industrious men, they wi!] at- tend these things in preference to every thing else:—Excerr when they believe the uecasion demancs a great exertion: when the Country calls for help, then they forget every thing and come tu the rescue. Such was the ease las! year, and such wil] again be the case whenever they think it necessary to vindicate the measures that they fough: for last year ; and to best back the men who would overthrow these measures, We have no fear for the final triumph of the Whig Party. : It is said that President ‘T'yler finding his scheme of setting up for himself at the end of his present term, is no go, is trying to beat back into the Whig ranks. © The altered tone of that miserable sheet, the Madisonian, wothd seem to indicate. such a course, What a paltry one is * Captain Tyler”! , The Democrals are chock)ing atthe idea that ne Eset takeg ‘the } GS ae > toar.id- Great Britain, and we await with tnuchs * BELEN STOUR. 5 hd Lo ur seuder hele dig ,.6.,-caneersing Mr. Allen's Agrieolta E a Hatbrest the poblicaionof that gentlemen's own |. down Sheép, and the Berkshire Hogs, Mr. Allen thioks there is no mistake, Of the first wecan ssy bat little, bot of the Berkahires we are sure there is _no mistake.

Michigan.—An election was held in Michi- gan on the ist and 2d days of the present month for Governer and members of the State Legis- latare. Retarns enough have been received to show that the Whigs there, tov, have suffered their opponents to carry the State. It is stated that near 400 Whigs in Detroit abstained from voling. There is a bare possibility that the Se- nate is saved. The stay at home-ites.—The full returns of the election in the State, ssys the N. York Ex press, show a falling off of 75,000 votes. Of thesa, at least 50,000 profess to be Whigs! ee Governor Paine, of Vermont, in his late Mes sage to the Legislature of that State, calls its attention to the Veto Power, as a featare in the Federal Constitution which imperiously requires alteration. He says, “ isthe only monarchi- cal feature in our form of government, and it is difficolt to understand how it should ever have been encrafied upon republicanihetitutions.” He adds thas “ it-was propably taken, without moeh reflection, frum the British Constitution, which vests a similar power in the King, but only tu protect his own prerogative from encroachment.” He adds that ‘‘even fur this purpese, ii bas not been exercised by hinms for more than. two centu- ries.” Again, he says thai ‘the eatly settiers of Vermont were ton jeal us of fiberts to alluw such @ power any place in their Constitation.” He adds, that “ to farm a just notion of the mognituda of the velw power, as it may be ex— ercised by the President, we mous keep consiant- le in view that to prevent the passage of whule- some and necessary !aws is as bad ast pass ihose which are mischiewous. The power tu make alllaws might be as properly entrasted to the Pragident asthe power to prevent all laws,— The history of all legistation proves that 2 ma- joritv.of two-thirds can seldem be obtained on dispoted questions 5 and to allow the President to resist the enactment of such laweas he plea ses, unless passed bs so laree a majority, is, in | effect, to repose in one man almost the entire \ power of legislatinn. But the President ant an- | ly claims the right to exercise the veto power | whenever he pleases, but to exereise it as he | understands the Constitution, without any re—} gard to the decisions of tha Supreme Coort, or tu the precedents established 5y his predeces sors. Ele appears to be uncontrolled in tis exor- cise either by law or precedent, and to have ao- thing to consult but his own consziennee, and no thing to regard but bis own character for con sistency.” He adds, “if he is right, we may bid farewell to all atability in our institotions — Every four veare the laws of the couniry may be changed, and its bnsiness may be wasted and destroyed by the constitutional scruples of a new Presidont. ‘I’he tariff, the bank, the distribo- tion of the revenue from the pablic lands, ioter- nalimprovement, all the great measures [yr the welfare of the conntry, will be constitutional or weconstitational, just as the Presideat may hap- pea tu be elecied from one part ef the Union ar the other.”— Nat. fat.

Salisbary, July 24, 1841—1{52 BRANDRETHS PILLS. Methicks I’ve cast full twenty years aside. Aod am again a boy. Every breath Of air that trembles thrgugh the window bears Unusual odoar :— Proctor's Miraneola. ryVae unprecedented success which has re- sulted from the adoption of Brandreth’s Pills, durliog a period of upwards uf $5 years— the nomerovus and extraordinary cores which they have performed upon hundreds of individ vals whom they have rescued from almost inev- itable death, after they have been pronounced incurable by the most eminent of the faculty— justify Dr. Brandreth, the proprietor of this Vegetable Universal Medicine, in warmly aud conscientiously recommending it to the especial notice of the pablic. Dr. Brandreth. wishes mankind to consider this truth,that health solely depends on the state of pogity io which the blood is kept, every part of the body being supplied daily with new olood from the food consumed, consequently, accord- ing to the purity of that blood, su must the state of the body be more or less healihy. To obtain, therefore, ‘he moet direct purifier.of the bluod, ia a qoesuce of no jittle importance to every iodi- ridual. ‘That Brandreth’s Pills are the most direct po- rifiers of the blood there will be no doubt when it is considered that they have gained their pre sent very extensive sale by their own intrinsic merit, proved by the numerous eures which they have accomplished in every variety of disease. The peculiar action uf these pills is must sar- prising —their operations beicg more or less pow- erfal, according to the purevess of the circula- ting fluid. On a person in a fair state of health, who is only custive or slightly billious, they will be searcely felt—on the contrary, if the com- plaint be chronic, and the constitution mach de ranged, the cam generally at first is most pow- erful, ontil the SYatem be freed from some of its most vitiated and turgit homours. ‘This accom- plished, dose sofficient to cause two or three evacuations daily, will soon remove the disease, and the constitution will be restored to a state of health and renewed vigor. The thousands who use and recommend these pills, ie proof positive of their extraordinary and beneficial effect. ‘hey in fact assist nature to do all she cant in the curing every form and symptom of the only one disease to which the human frame is subject, namely: impurity of the blood or in other words, and impure state of the fluids. These pills do indeed “ assist na ture” to all She can do for the purification of the hnman body ; yet there are numbers whose cases are so bad, and whose bodies are so muchidebili- tated, thas al] that can reasonably he expected is temporary relief, nevertheless some who have commenced using the Pills under the most try— ing circometances of bodily affliction, when al— most every other remedy had been altogether unavailing, have been restored to health snd happiness by their nse. Dr. Brandreth has to return thanks to a generous and enlightened public for the patronage they have bestowed on him, and he hopes by preparing the medicine, as he has ever done, to merit a contineation of favors. Dr. Brancreth’s office is pow kept at the sub sctiber’s Boot and Shoe store, 6 doors below the Market Main street, Richmond, Va. where the Pills can be obtained at 25 cenis per box. picp Agents in the country supplied as nsoal, DANFORTH BUTRICK.
