A bill in form prepared by the Committee,
incorporating the Female Friendly-Society of
Huinplireys-Ville, was introduced..and read.
Mr. N. J.nhns0i1»th0ught that the house ought
to possess a little more ‘information on the
sitl»ject,.befoi'e theycould act iintlerstandiiigly;
that, if the associafion was to be composed of
maidens, there might not be any difficulty,
but ifit were to consist of married ladies, it
might by some persons be considered incotn-
patible, with many of their conjugal duties,
and constitute an insurmountable objection.
Mr. T. Coe remarked that the society would
be composed, principally, ofunmarried ladies,
and he hoped gentlemen would be cautious
not to incur their displeasure. Mr. Nlarks
said the design was undoubtedly a very lauda-
‘ble one—-but he was unwilling to incorporattr
them-—he had no idea of ‘inalting Presidents
and Vice Presidents of women—we should
have too many of them. The question was
.put and negatived.—-—Thc bill relative to
Cashiers of Banks and others, requiring of
them annual lists of stock, &c. was read the
third time, and passed.——The consideration
of the resolution reported by the committee
on the School fund, was resumed, and after
much debate the subject postponcd.———~Thc
Judiciary bill was taken up, when Mr. Fair-
child asked, and had leave to withdraw it.-—-
Tlte consideration of the bill giving county
courts jurisdiction of the crime of Burglary,
‘kc. was resumed, and the debate, on an a-

mendment for a repeal of the law prohibiting
theatres, was renewed. Mr. Faxon repented
that he did not perceive how the amendment
could have any connection with the bill-—be-
sides, he had no wish to see theatres estab-
lished. Mr. Reed expressed liit.-’:soli'de.citletl-
ly against it; he said he was sorry business of
much greater importance had been shuflied
out ofthe House, to give place to an amend-
ment of this description. The amendment
was rejected, and the bill passed.——-The an-
nual statement ofthe receipts &. expenditures
of Yale College, was accepted and approved.

June 3.——A concurrent resolution authori-
sing the governor to issue his brief, to enable
the Missionary Society ofConnecticut to take
up contributions for a term of two years, pro-
vided the Society shall expend the amount of
their receipts, whether arising frotn contribu-
tions or ot'uerwise,&*.c. was read. Mr.Thomp-
son said afew words in favor of it, when Mr.
Raymond moved that it be indefinitely post-
poned. The motion was opposed by Messrs.
Miner and Eastmen, and on a division, neg-
atived—affu'tnative 78, negative 87. After
some observations in support ofthe resolution
were tnade by Messrs. Faxon aml T. Coe, it
was adopted. Mr. Fairchild from the fin-
ance committee subznitteda report which was
read and accepted.——-—Two resolutions pre-
pared by that, one appropriating specific
funds for certain purposes—-the other impos-
ing a tax of one cent on the dollar, on the list
of 189.2, were adopted. The annual report
of the Commissioner ofthe School Fund was.
taken up, accepted and approved A reso-
lution was adopted allowing the Chaplain 20
dollars, and‘ another allowing five dollars to
each ofthe engrossing commiItee.——-A res-
olution was passed re-appointing the Auditors
of public accounts.-—Various bills of expenses
incurred by the as.sembly,were read 8z.allowed.

istrates as were present, and the Legislature

, THE @.il%E@“@“Es
'1‘[I_ESDAY, JUNE 10,1823.

‘VIJt’7'UE, LIBERTY, A-ND INDEPENDENCE.’

In the ‘last Christian Spectator we find the
following remarks at the conclusion of an ar-
ticle headed “France and Spain.”

“We are by no means sanguine as to the
success ofthe Spanish patriots. The invasion
ofa country by a hostile army has been gen-
erally found to unite all classes in support of
their own government. But we do not calcu-
late upon this result in the present instance.

The constitutional government has many
and powerful enemies in the bosom of Spain,
who adhere to their ancient prejudices, and
consider the constitutional system as nothing
less thandisloyalty to the throne and impiety
to Heaven. The foundations ofliherty were
not laid, as in the U. States, by habit, educa-
tion, .the diffusion of the scriptures, and the
practice of self-government. Nothing is tnore
true than that habit will attach the affections
of our nature, to any system of government,
civil or religious, and that nothing but knowl-
edge, can dispel the influence which it produ-
ces. We recollect that an attempt of Gen.
Junot, when be occupied Lisbon, to cleanse
the streets of that city frotn mud and filth
which had been accumulating for years, was
nearly attended with a general insurrection of
the populace oftbat city. The monks raised
an outcry that the mud, the sacred mud, of
their streets, was in danger frotn unhallowed
hands, and all the people said amen. Like
the people of Lisbon, the Spaniards of the
lower order are buried in profound ignorance
and abject superstition; looking to Roman
Catholic Priests for the forgiveness of their
sins and sure passports to Heaven. The Cler-
gy, of whom Spain was full, were deprived by
the revolution of a great portion of their pow-
er autl influence, and many of the lower or-
ders of the priesthood utterly proscribed.—
The disbanded priests have been the instru-
ments of sedition and discord among the cre-
dulous and ignorant populace, over whom
they exercise unbounded control. The mate-
rials therefore of faction, iusubordination and
violence, are widely extended : and the effect
is already visible in the numerous guerilla
parties or bands of the faith, which, organiz-
cd under the influence of fanatics, have al-
ready distracted the kingdom and filled it
with violence. We fearthat these discordant
and hostile bands cannot be united in defence
of their country by the invasion of France ;
on the contrary, that the French will be view-
ed by the malcontenis as friends, sent to de-
liver thetn from the present government, and
to restore the true faith and the absolute king;
and that broken by divisions, Spain may fall
aprey to one of the most unprincipled ag-
gressions, ever attetnpted upon an indepen-
dent nation.

Vile still hope that such may not be the re-
sult: that the heroic pcrseverance and brave-
ry which distinguished them in their resist-
ance to Bonaparte will be found still to ani-
mate the nation; and that the saiue bravery
and perseverance will now, as it was former-
ly, be approved by Heaven and crowned with
success.”

The Legislature closed its session on Tues-
day, the 3d inst. This has been the shortest
session under the new Constitution. Twen-
ty-three Public Acts were passed.

The Governor has issued a Brief, as direct-
ed by a resolution ofthe Legislature, allowing
and soliciting contributions in the Churches
throughout this state, for the purpose of ena-
bliug the Methodist Society of Norwich to
build a house of worship. It will be recollect-
ed that their Meeting-house was swept away
by a freshet a few months siuce—-—this house
had been -erected by great exertions, and was
nearly uew—-a circumstance which makes the
loss peculiarly severe. The contributions
may be taken on any Sabbath in this month,
and the sums collected deposited in any oft.he
banks in this state to the credit ofElder Da-
vid N. Bentley, of Norwich, or paid over to
him, as may be most convenient.

The Presidency/.—Most of the leading pa-
persthroughout the Union have given some
intimatious of the course they intend to pur-
sue with regard to the successor of Mr. Mon-
roe, and one thing is observable in all, that
each one thinks his favorite candidate will be
successful. Mr. Adams, it is asserted, will
receive the votes of the New-‘England States,
as well of as many of the others. Mr. Craw-
ford’s friends declare that he is the only man
in the Union fit for a President, while his en-
emies conte.nd that he,ofall others, is the most
unfit—he will probably receive the support of
the slave-holding states; he has also many
friends in New-York. The votes of the west
will be divided between Mr. Clay and Gen.
Jackson. Mr. Calhoun, who has friends in
every part of the Union, is thought to be too
young to sit in the Presidential Chair—ifhe
does not press his claims too strongly now, he
may,some 19. or 16 years hence, find-an easier
access to that elevated station.

Novel undertaking.-—The interesting and
novel performance of ’l'€‘IIlO‘l}i’)lg‘ a brick house,
was witnesssed in this city yesterday, (says the
N.Y. Merc. Adv.ofWednesday.) In the im-
provements going on in Maiden lane, it was
necessary that the House No. 85 should be
pulled down or removed a distance offil 1-2
feet from its former front. The house is 3
stories high, 925 feet wide, and 45 in deptli—
has a slated roof, and is a. valuable building.
The project of removing it,was conceived and
undertaken by Mr. Simeon Brown, who has
before removed about 9.0 buildings, _some of
them built partly with brick, and in some in-
instances, without disturbing the families or
removing the furniture. This house was
estimated to weigh about 350 tons, and was
removed with all the chitnnies, windows,
and 8Lc. standing. Being previously, placed
upon ways, the removal was commenced yes-
terday morning, and was performed by tltrec
bed screws placed in the front, each of which
worked by two or three men. What was
deemed the most difficult part ofthe under-
taking, was that the house must be raised a-
bout two feet from its former fouudatiou—this
was however done by two other screws‘ placed
underneath, which raised the building gradu-
ally to the exact ratio required. In the course
ofthe day, the building was moved about 16
feet, without the least detriment or jar-—the
other 5 feet will be raised this morning about

9 o’clock, when those who have not seen the

' performance,‘ may have aiiotlier opportunity.

Great numbers were present yesterday and
uiuch gratified by the sight. . There was so
little danger manifest, "that 'dur'irig,the time
the house was moving, the owner entertained
about 150 persons within it with a l1and§o’mt=.
collation. We conceive this successful un-
dertaking to be important,particularly toa
‘city requiring so many improvements as this,
and think Mr. Brown deserves much praise
for his ingenuity. We have ascertained that
the expence ofremoving the building,is about
one fifth ofits value, and there is no doubt
that this plan will in future, in many instan-
ces be adopted, and a great portion of the ex-
pence of pulling and rebuilding, saved.

On the following day the removal of the
building was completed.

.79 Singular E):pctlilion,.+Left this town
on the 221st instant, for theRussian settlement
on the Pacific Ocean, Israel Mitchell, a citi-
zen of this place, in company with two other
young men, Stephen Howard, and Martin
Smith. The party intend visiting the north-
ern posts of the United States, and passing
the coming winter at the Scotch settlement
near Green Bay. Tire Spring following they
mean to set out for the Pacific Ocean, calcu-
lating to follow the Northern boundary line
ofthe United States to where it strikes the
Pacific. Their object is purely to acquire
topographical information. The occupation
ofthe mouth ofColumbiaRiver, by theUnited
States, has been for some years adesidera-
tum with Mr. Mitchell ; and, as our last Con-
gress seems to have adandoned that object,lie,
unaided by the government, and without even
individual assist-.mce,lias attempted to explore
that inhospitable region.——1ndiana Censor.

The U. S. ship Cyane, capt. Spence, was
at Sierra Leone, March 6. Captain S. had
been ill, but was on the recovery. The resi-
due of the ofliccrs and crew were in good
health. A letter published in the Daily Ad-
vertiser, states that the colonists at Cape Mes-
urado, had been repeatedly attacked by the
natives, and were in a critical state. Captain
S. on receiving this intelligence, decided to
repair and fit out for their relief and security,
the U. States’ schooner Augusta. Lieutenant
Dashiell was ordered to command her, having
two inidshiptncn and 19.’. sailors; and she will
doubtless prove essentially useful, until orders
from the Government on the subject are re-
ceived. The preservation ofeven the lives of
the remaining colonists demand the most
prompt, expeditions, and decisive measures ;
and every friend to humanity iiitist approve of
the steps taken on this occasion. Every offi-
cer and man ofthe Cyane are in requisition
to forward the equipment, 8r.c. ofthe Augusta,
and the moment she was sea-wortliy,botli ves-
sels would proceed for Mesurado, where it
would appear the colonists have acted with
firmness and bravery, while contending a-
gainst very superior numhers, and with limit-
ed means oftlefencc.—.’lIerc. fldv.

Coloniztttion Social‘:/.—-Tlte Board of Offi-
cers and Managers of this Society assembled
at Washington a few weeks siuce,and appoint-
ed committees to consider the present state
of the colony on the coast of Africa—-to di-
gestasysteui ofiinanee for the society--—and
to revise the system under which the affairs of
the society are itnmediately trans’-ictetl. They
adjourned to meet again in a few days.

It is with feelings of rc_s.:ret that we learn,
(says the Com. Adv.)that another naval court
Martial is soon to be assembled at Brooklyn,
for the trial ofCapt. Evans. This officer was
dissatisfied with the result ofthe Court ofIti-
quiry, recently held to investigate his conduct
as commander on this station, and has there-
fore tlemanded and obtained a Court Martial.
The proceedings of that Court of Inquiry
have not been made public.

Cll't£7‘7l”f7lg by Degas.-—Auiong the many in-
ventions ofthis age of Slcam. aml inaclnzery,
that by which Dogs are madeto churn butter,
is not the least worthy ofnotice; and our good
liouse-wives, and dairy women, will doubtless
often bless the inventive fertility ofour Yan-
kee neighbours, for an improvement which
considerably diminishes the never ending
round oftheir duties, and throws upon a lazy
and useless animal the burthcn of one ofthe
tnost tedious and irksorneoftheirlabors. \Vith
one oftliese ‘Patent Churniug Machines,’ a
common dog may be taught, in the course of
three days, to do all the churning for the larg-
est dairies. The dog travels upon an inclined
wheel, and his motion puts in operation the
machinery, which, by means of a small lever,
operates upon the dash of the chtiru, which is
tnade in the common way.—-.N'. J. Eagle.

Hessian .‘t/.--'1‘hisdcstructive insect is ma-
king great ravages atnoiig the wheat crops in
the south. Some farmers it is said, will not
tnakc as much grain as they seeded. The fol-
lowing letter from a farmer in Virginia, may
give sortie idea of the extent of the evil:

‘ The havoc committed by the Hessian/l_y,
is without example, and surpasses all descrip-
tion. Our fields are literally laid waste, and
cattle are turned on many of tlietn, which 3
or 4 weeks ago promised an ample remuner-
ation to the industrious farmer for his anxious
and toilsomc care. His late hopes, so bright
and so buoyant, are converted suddenly into
black despair. Our clover has wholly failed
for the two last seasons, and its place occupi-
ed by innumerable weeds ofthe most perni-
cious kind. The Rye crops are remarkably
good. I have givenyou, mydear .sir,a gloomy,
but_a faithful picture. Rest assured that it is
not 'exaggeratetl. Great complaints, as usual,
ofthe grnb or cut wortti, in the early planted
corn. Even mine has been severely attacked
under circumstances that have resisted its ef-
fect uniformly for many successive years.

It is stated in a letter datedClinton,Geo.May
18th, that a few days previous, a young man,
who had been sometime married to a young
and amiable Lady, ofunexceptionable char-
acter, and having a child but ten days old, be-
coming offended with his wife commenced
beating and stabbing her, and at length, over-

come by passion, he cut her throat from ear to .

ear, and then attemptedto cut his own, but did
not quite kill himself. He was immediately
apprehended and committed to prison to a-
wait his trial. ~ ,

In Peters’ Township Pa. a cave has been‘

lately discovered by a person digging for wa-
ter. Its entrance is sou'ien-liat obstructed by
loose rocks; butafter advancing a little dis-
tance every obstruction disappears. The solid
rock is erlarnalled with spar, reflecting differ-
ent colors to the eye of the beholder ; and in
every direction-'th'e most beautiful stalactites,
of every hue, are seen pendent from the walls

When about departing for the racecourse
on Tuesday last, Mr. Randolpli suggested to
some gentlemen ihat it would be a good time
to elect a President of the United States, as
there would be an assembly of 50 or 60,000
people from the different parts ofthe Union,
and probably every state would be represetited.
On his return however to the city, he remark-
ed that lie was glad his proposition had not
been acceded to, as he had no doubt that iftho.
election had taken place there, Piirdy would
have been chosen over any other mciii. iii the

by an order of Council, be excluded from the
