and liberal settlement of his ‘accourits. After‘

some conversation the report was laid on the
table. Air unsuccessful motion was made
that the House meet at 10 o’clock, A. M.

Mr. Hamilton offered a resoltition which he
wished to be laid on the table for the present,
directing the Secretary ofthe Treasury to lay
before Congress, at the next session, a detail-
ed revision of the existing tariff.

The President’s Message relative to the
Massachusetts Claims was referred to a com-
mittee. The bill from the Senate for the
relief ofpcrsons imprisoned for debt was ta-
ken up and agreed to.

The Tarz_'fi‘bi.’l was again resiimed, when
Mr. Tucker renewed his motion ofyesterday
for a postponement. Much controversy took
place on this motion, and after a call of the
roll, and repeated motions for the previous
question, it was decided in the negatire—-
Yeas 45, nays 155.

A motion was made to reduce the dut_v on
salt to 10 cents per bushel. The previous
question was called, but the house, refused to
sustain it, and after some debate the motion
was negatived.

Mr. Coirdict moved to amend the bill so
that after the 1st day ofJune, l3"2.5, the duty
on iron should be $1 per cwt. Mr. McDuffie
moved to amend the ainendirient liy striking
out filand inserting 80 cents. After some dis-
cussion the previous question was called and
sustained; ayes 98, nays 86.

The main question, viz. on ordering the bill
to be engrossed for a third reading, was
then taken, and decided in the (.(fll‘,)‘lIl(Il'l.U€-—
Ayes 105, Nays 109. [’Witlr the exception of
Mr. Foot, all the Connecticut inenibers voted
in the afl‘irmative.]

A warm debate now arose on the question
as to the day when the bill should receive its
One motion was made up-
pointing to-inorrow; a second appointing
Monday, and a third the 4th of Jrrly next.——
I\Ir. Saunders moved for air indefinite post-
ponement; Mr. Foot moved that the bill be
laid on the table; both of which were pro-
nounced out of order. To-niorrow was final-
ly fixed upon for its third reading .

House of Representatives, Jilpril 15.—Mi'.
Forsytb, from the select committee to whom
was referred the subject of the Georgia claims
made a detailed report thereupon, reconiinen-
ding an appropriation, (in blarrk,) for the pur-
pose of extinguishing the Indian little to ter-
ritory within the liiriits of Georgia. The re-
port was referred to a Committe ofthe whole.
In advocating this refercirce, Mr. F. said,that,
if gentlemen had examined the docttineiits
connected with this report, they would have

 

' seen that a state of irritation exists, which re-

quires to be allayed, or it would require
something stronger than resolutions of this
Hbuse to allay it. [Next week we shall pub-
lish the documents here referred to.]

Mr. Allen, ofMass. called for the consider-
ation of a resolution fixing a day for the ad-
journment of Congress ; and, on his motion,
the question ofconsideration ofthis proposi-
tion was taken by Yeas and Nays. The vote
stood as follows: For considering it 100: A-
gainst considering it 100. The House being
equally divided on the question, the Speaker
voted thereupon in the negative.

The engrossed bill to amend the several
acts for imposing duties on imports and ton-
nage, wasthen read a 3d time ; and the ques-
tion being stated-—-“ Shall this billpass 3?”

Mr. Randolph, of Virginia, rose, and deliv-
ered a Speech of nearly 3 hours, in decided
opposition to the bill. Mr.Holt-oinbe replied,
and then the House adjourned.

./Ipril l6.—Tlre Speaker laid before. the
House a memorial signed by Thomas Law,
Vl"altcr Jones, and Elias B. Caldwell, a corri-
inittee appointed at a public meeting of the
citizens of Washington, praying the attention
of Congress to the pecuniary eirrbarrasirient
ofthe. country, and the establishment of a na-
tional paper currency, as best calculated to
remedy the evil ; which was,on motion of Mr.
Triirible, referred to the Committee of Ways
and Means, anil ordered to be printed.

The report ofthe committee relative to the
VlcePresident’s accounts was taken up and
agreed to.

The Tariffbill was taken up, and after Mr.
M’Drif’fie had delivered his sentiiments against
it. :1 call was made for the previous question,
which was sustained. The main question,
shall the bill puss fl was then put, and decided
in the aflirniative ; Ayes 107-—Na_vs 102. So
the bill was passed, and sent to the Senate for

COIICUITCIICB.

After a discussion often weeks, the bill for
a Revision ofthe Tarifi'ofDuties on Imports,
has passed the House of Representatives by a
majority ofjive votes, and is w before the
Senate. The first_circumstanc hich strikes
every one is, the firlrress ofthe House on this
occasion, indicating the profound interest
which the subject has excited. More than one
Member, who was itrdisposed, rose from his
bed to vote on the occasion ; and, but for the
situfition ofthese two or three gentlemen, it is
probable the friends ofthe.bill would not, yes-
terday, have forced a decision upon it, asthey
did. Out of the 9.13 Metnbers, 9. only were
yesterday abse.nt,one of th*:::: absent from the
city, and. the other too much indisposed to
reach the House. So full an attendance has
never been known during the time that we
have been acqiiaiiu-zrl with the House ofRep-
reseirtatives.-—.'Vat. Intell.

Success of the Colomln'a.ns.—-We learn of

Insurrection of the Convicts at the Tread
.~’l]ill'.—-On Saturday last, about halfpast 12
o’clock, an attempt was made by the convicts
at work on the Tread Mill, at the Penitentia-
ry, to make their escape. The number of
criminals who weretlien at the wheel, was 46
—viz. 21 white, and 25 black men, many of
whom were stout fellows,and of the most des-
perate character. The time which they had
selected for their purpose was that appropria-
ted to their dinner,when they had just quilted
work. Mr. James Nelson, one of the inside
keepers, was going out, when a very athletic
negro, the leader ofthe gang, endeavored to
force open the door and to wrest the key froru
his hands; btit by the utrcoininoiily spirited
exertions of Mr. N. who is 11 very strong man
he was disappointed in his aim. Had he suc-
ceeded his associates were ready to make a
general rush into the yard. The fellow at last
by the application of several well directed
blows, gave up, and cried aloud for mercy,
which was readily granted. The other prin-
ciplc leader was a white fellow, an absolute
dcperado, who about 4 months ago, was con-
victed of attempting to blow tip his wife and
cliildrcn with gun powdei',and was sentenced
to hard labor for S ycars.—Witli this ruflian,
and several of tire most daring of the gang,
Mr. Daniel Riker, the other ofthe inside kee-
pers was actively engaged; but by the address
and iritrepitlity which he displayed upon the
occasion, he was able to keep them at bay--
until assistance arrived.—Com.. fldv.

Jl1urder.—A foul murder was committed in
Fitcliburg, in Worcester county, on Saturday
night last, the circumstances attending which,
as related by the VVorcester Spy, were of a
most shocking clraracter, the nrost important
of which follow:—A inzin, iianiedAbelFrenclr,
and his wife, not having for several years liv-
ed happily t.ogetlier,'some tiiire since separat-
ed, and she went to keep house with a cousin
of her liusband, named Abel Frencli,jr. whose
wife had also left him. The elder French’s
jealousy of his wife induced him to go to his
cousin’s house on Fr'id:r_i-' eveiririg last, where
he made soine discoveries which confirmed
his sir.-:pieions. On Saturday night he went
.t‘,£j1ln,tIl‘tl1t'.‘Ll with a l.iii‘~.cl:t:r’s knife, and find-
ing his wife and cousin aslr-..-:p togetlier, corri-
inenccd his horrid purpose by irairiiriptiiig to
cut her throat, but strikiirg too high. bcrjaw
bone receiver! the blow, whicli probably sail

and a brig formerly the Br. gun brig Mosqirito. led her life. The younger French being rous

\

ed, seized the elder, when a struggle ensued
between them, in which the elder stabbed the
younger so_fatally that he fell and immediate-
ly expired. The wornari is likely to recover.

Weleam that Hicks, the principal Chief of
the Cherokees,accoiripanied by 13 other chiefs,
started a few weeks since as cotnissioirei's to
lVashington City, for the purpose of procur-
ing an ackiiowledgiiientoftheir independence
as a nation, or of selling their whole territory.
Hicks, however, was laboring under the pain
of a white swelling, and became so veryill,
that he was under the neeessityof retiiriiirrg,
but gave strict and positive instructions to the
other Chiefs, either to bring home an ‘ac-
knowledgrnentoftheirNationalIndependence
or to negotiate ti transfer. It is probable that
a portion oftheir country will shortly be add-
ed to this state.—./llobilc Register.

We learn by an arrival at Philadelphia,tlrat
the U. S. steam galliot Sea Grill, touched at
St. Jago, Cuba, on the 28d ult. for refresh-
ments, aod sailed next day; reported having
fallen in with the Colombian armed sclir.iIu-
an Itta, off Jaeqiieiiiel, with her prize iir co.
(the schr. Pacification, of and borrnd to New-
York.) Lieut. Vorliees took possession ofthc
Pacification, put a prize master and crew on
board,and ordered her for Key West.--.-"lI..fldv.
Capt. Biirr'ill,from St. Domingo City,statcs
that in the latter part ofFeb. a plot was disco-
vered arriong the Spanish inhabitants to re-
volt against the government and declare that
part ofthe Island independent. A rririiiber of
the conspirators were arrested. Four oftlieiri
were executed oti the 122th of March, and 1&2
others were sentenced to iinpri'.~oiimciit for a
period off: to 5 years.—./Herc.-./1110.

.N'cw Irwention.—-Mr. Hoxie, an ingenious
mecltariician oflludson, on Friday ex-Iiibited
at the Tontiiie Coffee House, :1 model of nia-
cltinery, by which he is corifident vessels ofa-
iiy size may be propelled at sea, independent
of wind or steairi,—the motion of the vessel
being alone required to give it effect. The
inachinery is simple, and would take tip but
an inconsiderable space in it vessel—-in fact,
the inventor says, 3 or 4 feet in length, and
the breadth ofthe vessel, would be amply stif-
ficient for its operation. A rotary motion is
produced by a vibrating weight in the hold of
the vessel,witlioiit the airl ofa crank—-an iron
shaft connects the horizontal wheel in the
hold (propelled by the peridirltiin) with anotlier
on deck,wliic_li li1llC1‘Ci1US(1Sl.ll€ sli2ift,on which
are the paddles, to turn,-——and thus is the ma-
cliine put in operation.’ A portion ofa cargo
—siicli articles as are heavy-—nriglit be pla-
ced as weight in the pendulum, to the amount
of sotne tons; and thus may this inacliincry
be used without much diininution ofthe quan-
tity of cargo that would be conveyed in a ves-
sel dependent oii sails $3 wind for propulsion.
Although this maclrinery might not entirely
effect the objects ofthe inventor, and super-
sede the use of sails, we tltiiikit might with
advantage form a part of the eqiiipment of
nierciratrt vessels. It would, we are ofopirr-
ioti, be found useful in the calms that succeed
the most boisterous weather,——whcn, though
not a breath of air might move the sails, the
rolling ofthe sea (which continues strong for
some days after the abatemeiit of the storm)
would give Sufficicnt power to the inric-lriiiei'y
to propel the vessel, and so relieve the weary
nrariner in some degree from one of the most
disagrcable and disheartening siiitatiuns in
which he can be placed—exposed to the trier-
cy of the waves, without being able to move
a knot in his voyage. Some seafaring men,
who viewed Mr. Hoxie’s invention, intimated
their opinion that by its use all vessels would
be safe even with a lee shore—for the greater
the swell, the swifter would the vessel recede
from the land. This alone is an object that
would warrant an experiment by some of our
wealthy merchants or shipbiiilders of ilie util-
ity of Mr. Hoxie’s inaclririery,——tlrc gain by
which, in 27. or three. of the days that it might
be used, would, we think, fully compensate
for the expense atteiidiirg its corisiriiction.

./lmerica against the world.—It would seem
that our American artist have anticipated the
atmosplreric engine; and for which a patent
has been obtained. This iinproveincnt is de-
nominated a rotary shifting engine ; it entirely
sripcrscdes the necessity ofsteain,aird to which
different mechanic powers may be applied, as
convenience may require; but chiefly depends
on atmospheric pressure. From the siniplici~
ty ofits structure, and its portability, it is dee-
med by meclianists superior for propelling
vessels of any description, and for being ap-
plied to any kind ofniaelrinery, to anyvprinci-
ple hitherto known. The expense ofthe irra-
cliinery is merely nornirral,compared with the
ordinary steam engine, as no fuel is required
to generate or compress the atuiosplieric fluid
in its reservoir. The gentlemen whose united
efforts have produced this truly superior ini-
provement and who pledge tbetiiselves for its
utility, and as we say, deserve universal pat-
ronage, are, Messrs. Atnos VV. D. Lano, of
Hancock, Berkshire county, Mass. and Jtinia
Clrittenden, of Steplientowrr, county ofRens-
selaer, N. York, to whom application may be
made for Rights to apply said principle to nav;
igation or other purposes. ——.fllb. flrgus.

Flying by Stcam.—The inventor of the
Capillary Steam Engine, for navigating the
air, is said to have so far succeeded as to ex-
hibit it complete to the astonished citizens of
Lexington, (Ky.) Brit, greatly to their disap-
poiirtinent, and no less so to that: of the intre-
pid inventor,oii making the first trial to “float
in the air, the machine obstinately refused to
give tip its hold to the earth.” Nothing dis-
mayed at this iirilooked-for accident, the pro-
jector is still said to be confident ofsucceeding
" in soaring as high as the eagles” by the aid
of his newly invented engine.——./Vat. Intel.

S/iiptorccl.'.—Tlie brig Pocabontas,Captain
Grosveiror, from Moritego Bay, Jamaica, was
lost on -the lltli inst. on Fire Island. (L. I.)
The weather at the time was very foggy. The
vessel is totally lost, and the cargo, excepting
29 piinclieons of rtini—tlie passengers and
crew were saved, excepting the cook who was
drowned. The following letter from the cap-
tain and a passenger, states a disgraceful act
coirrinitted by an inlrabitant of B-rbylon,L.I.
“On the breaking up of the brig Pocahon-
tas, which weiit ashore on Sunday night in a
thick fog on Fire Island, the trunks that were
picked up belonging to the passengers, were
taken possession ofby flmos Higbic, resident
of Babylon, who would not give them tip to
the owners witliont paying him the exorbi-
tant clurr~ge of twenty dollars—at lll(3’S':1lHP
time he being only a laboring man employed
by the wreck iriasier, for the purpose of saving

I

all property that cares rm shore.-Aria as we
had no money to ptiythe demand, we offered
him a note to tnake ourselves liable for what-
ever the wreck master‘ should say was correct,
which hedeclinetl, and said he must keep
possession ofthe trunks until he was satisfi-
ed ; and as we were destitute of every article
of clothing we were determined to have our
property or lose our lives, and succeeded in
getting our trunks.”

Mr. Higbie has replied to the above, and
states that a reward of S65 had been offered
for one of the trunks, and that at the risk of
his life he put off to the wreck and obtained
it, with two others. These trunks were all
taken away frotn him by force, and he receiv-
ed no compensation whatever.
