tion to the iinportaiice of that article; and
conceived its importance to every portion of
society to be the very reason why its produc-
tion, in our own country, should be encourag-
ed.. He proceeded to explain to the Senate
the means which our country possesses to pro-
duce iron ; and the necessity ofsoiiie additioii-
al encouragement in order to ensure its pro-
duction in sufiicient quantities to renderus in-
dependent of foreign nations, for this iinport-
ant article of consiimption. He considered
this a contest between the shipping merchant
and the manufacturer of otir own country;
and the latter, he thought, ought to have the
preference to the foreign manufacturer.

Mr. Holmes and Mr. Lloyd also spoke in
favor ofthe motion to strike out, and Mr. D’-
‘Volt’ against it. The question was then put
and decided in the u_.fiirinutive, as follows:

Yeas.—Messrs. Barbour, Branch, Clayton,
Edwards, Elliot, Gaillard, Hayiie, Holnies,of

So the duty on iron was stricken out.

House of Representatives, ./Iprit 9.8.-‘ The
Committee on the Public Buildings, to whom
was referred the resolution, instructing them
to iuqiiire into the expediency of purcliasing
three of Capiltano’s marble Busts of VVash--
ington, having had the subject under conside-
ration, reported—-

That, however laiidableit may be, in the
government, to cherish a disposition friendly
to the fine arts, and to patronizeingeiiiotis ar-
tizans,\or politic to adorn our public halls or
libraries with the likeness of departed sages
or heroes, it is inexpedient to purchase these
busts, at this time, under existing circumstan-
ces.’ The report was concurred in.

Mr. Van Rcnsselaer obtained leave of ab-
sence until the end ofthe present session.

The following Message was received from
the President of the United States.

To the House of Repi'escntati*ves :—The H.
of Representatives having referred back the
accounts and claims of Daniel D. Tompkins,
late Governor of N. York, to be settled,on the
principles established bythe report ofthe com-
mittec, and iaw founded on it, in the last ses-
sion, I have re-considered the subject,and now
communicate the result.

By the report of the Committee, which it
was understood was adopted by the House, it
was decided, that his accounts and claims
should be settled on the four following prin-
ciples: First, That interest should be allow-
ed liim_ on all moneys advanced by him for
the public, from the time of the advance to
that ofhis being reimbursed. Second, That
reasonable commission should be allowed him
on all moneys disbursed by him dtiring the
late waij. Third, That an indemnity should
be allowed him for all losses which he had sus-
tained by the failure of the governmeiitto ful-
fil tits engagements to send him money or
Treasury notes within the time specified to be
deposited in certain banks, as collateral secti-
rity for loans procured by him, at the request,
and on account of, the government. Fourth,
That he should not be held responsible for
losses incurred by the frauds and failures of
sub-agents, to whom moneys were advanced
through his hands.

On the first : That ofinterest on his advan-
ces for the pt.iblic,I have allowed him 814,438
68. This allowance is made on advances ad-
mitted by the Accounting Departnicnt, and
on the declaration of Mr. Tompkins that the
remittances made to him after his advances,
and previous to the 214th of Dec. 1814, when a
very large sum ofmoney was remitted to him,
were applied to public purposes,and not to the
reiinburstiient ofliis advances.

On the second head : That ofa reasonable
commission for his disbursments di.iring the
late war, I have allowed him five per cent. on
the whole sum disbursed by him, amounting
to ninety-two thousand two hundred and thir-
teen dollars and thirteen cents. I have made
him this extra allowance in consideration of
the aid which he afforded to the government
at that important epoch, in obtaining the loan
ofa considerable part ofthe sums thus disbur-
sed.——Oii the third head: That of an in-
demnity for losses sustained by him in conse-
quence of the failure of the government to
fulfil its engagements to send him money or
Treasury Notes within the time specified, I
have allowed him $4,411 15,beiiig the amount
of the loss sustained on the sale of Treasury
Notes, for which he is responsible.

On the 4th head, that of losses sustained by
him, by any frauds or failures of sub-agents,
none such having been shewn, no allowance
whatever has been made to him.

From the amount thus allowed to Mr.
‘Tonipltiiis, after deducting the sum paid him,
under the act of the present session, and the
inoiieys ttlizirged to his account, there will re-
main a I)21i21llCe(lll8 him ofS60, 9.38 40, as ap-
pears by the sketch herewith communicated.

In nialtiug a final decision on Mr. ‘Tomp-
kiu’s claiiiis, a question arises, Shall interest
be allowed him on the amount ofthe commis-
sion on his disbursements? The law of the
last session grants to the President a power to
allow interest on moneys advanced by him to
the public, but does not authorize it on the
commission to be allowed-on hisdisbtirsem_ents.
To make such allowance, belongs exclusively
to Congress. Had his claims been ‘settled at
the end of the last war, on the principles es-
tablished by the law ofthe last session,a coni-
mission on disbursements would then have
been allowed him. This consideration ope-
rates with great force, in favor ofthe allow-
ance of interest, on that commission, at this
time, which I recommend to Congress._ I
think proper to add, that the official relation
which I bore to Governor Tompkins, at that
very interesting epoch, under the highly dis-
tinguished &L meritorious citizen under whom
we both served, enabling pie to feel very sen-
sibly the value of his services, excites a very
strong interest in his favor, which I deem it
not improper to express. JAMES Monnon.

April 923, 1824.

The Message was read, and ordered to be
laid on the table. _

Senate, flpril 29.-—A motion was made to
strike out from the tariff bill the clause impos-
iug a duty ofa cents per lb. on hemp, which
was carried———24 to 20. ‘

No business of importance Was transacted
in the House this day. .

Seiiate, flpril 30.—-A motion to strike from-
the tariff bill the duty of51-2 cents on Cot-
ton Bagging was carried after considerable
discussion. Yeas 9.8.

In the House, the committee to whom was
referred the message ofthe President relative
to the claims ofthe Vice President, reported
a bill (in blank) making appropriations to pay
him, which was twice read. [The House has
been for the week past engaged in passing
bills ofa private natui'e.] ’

The blows inflicted on the Tariff bill,in the
Senate, have been followed up by a third, by
which the prospective duty of 5 1-92 cents -on
Cotton Bagging is stricken out. We under-
stand, however, that the bill is not yet entire-
ly despaired of. It is supposed, as a possible
event, that,in place ofthe duties on iron and
hemp, which have been successively stricken
out, a lower rate ofdiity on each oftliose arti-
cles, may find favor with the Senate. VVe
confess, however, that we see little prospect,
at present, ofthat bill becoming a law, at this
session, in any shape-—.N’at. Int.

The bill for the settlement of the claim of
the‘heirs of Beautiiarchais, yesterday came to
its ttirn in the House of Represeniatives. We
earnestly hope that the present session will not
close without providing for the equitable ad-
justment of that claim. The national char-
acter, it appears to us, is concerned in it; and
the laws ofliospitality,not to speak ofcthival-
ry or gallantr_v,appear to require, at least,tliat
serious attention be given to the claim of a
lady who has traversed air ocean to procure a
decision upon it.——JV'at. Int.

Gold Coins.——For E3 or three months past,
we are informed, the Batik of the U. States
has, at some pains, been putting into circula-
tion,in payments to the Members of Congress,
and for their convenience, principally, an tin-
usual quantity of the smaller Gold Coins of
the Union, consisting of Qtiartci' and Half
Eagles. VVe are glad of this, as it increases
the proportion of the most handy and beauti-
ftil of our coins,and will eventually contribute
to the convenience of the community at large
as well as to that of the individuals for whose
accommodation the Batik has taken the troub-
le.—-—JV'at. Int.

The sum ofS.‘31,93~2 29, being the amount
received by the 'l‘reasurer ofthe Greek Fund
in this city, was forwarded to England on Sat-
urday by the packet ship New-York. Other

Tlie donations collected, ofswords, pistols,aiid

Excha.nge.—It is with pleasure we can at
length announce, thatthe Trustees ofthe Ex-
change Company have ptircliased a site wliere-
on to erect a building. The property purchas-
ed is that of the Buchanan family, now occu-
pied in part by Mr. Bunker as a boardiiig-
house, extending 114 ft. in front, on Wall-st.
and running back, part ofit to Sloat-Lane.-—
The situation is central, convenient, and ade-
quate to the wants ofthe Company. As yet,
no plans have been determined on, respecting
the building.-—.N'. Y. flmerican.

We are requested to state that some of our
most respectable and wealthy citizens have
taken air interest in the stock of the Bank of
VVashington and \Varrcn, which will enable
the Bank to resume specicpayinents 8:. Bank-

Capt. \Vard, at Salem, from Rio Janeiro,
informs that the report of the arrival there of
the King and Queen ofthe Sandwich Islands,
is correct. They left Rio again in all Febru-
ary for England, and expect to visit the Uni-
ted States before they return to their native
isles. The report that the King had two wives
with him, is untrue. The Queen’s sister ac-
coriipanies her, and the whole suite consists of
12 persons. They spoke of proceeding from
England to Boston.

Invention forthe security of the Mail-.—VVe
have seen a specimen of an invention by a
French officer who has long been in this
country, and is a citizen of the United States,
intended to secure mail bags froiu the attempts
ofrobbers. It is proposed to substitute for the
leathern bags now in use, a net-work compos-
ed of stotit iron rings, enclosed between two
covers of deer skin stuffed with wool, and cov-
ered outside with strong leather. A bag form-
ed in this manner, would resist the force of
almost any power which in ordinary circum-
stances could be applied to it. It is proposed
to fasten the mouth of the bag with a newly
invented and very secure lock, and to attach
the whole to the bottom of the mail carriage,
so that none but the post-master shall be able
to open orto remove it.

The weight of the new bags, which seemed
at first an objection to them, need not exceed
iiiticli riiore than double that of those now in
use, and the new invention promises niticli
greater durability than the old bags. On the
whole, we think it offers great security to our
post-office establishment. Col. Laporte, we
understand, has gone to Washington, for the
purpose of offering it to the government.

At the conclusion ofthe article from a Mo-
bile paper, relative to lVi'riiEni=‘oTi) the Iii-
dian Prophet and VVarrior, (which lately ap-
peared in this paper,) we find the following re-
mark by the cditor ofthe Philadelphia Obs.
WITHERFORD, it will bo recollected, after the
annihilation ofliis tribe, surrendered himself
to Gen. JACKSON, who “was struck with ad-
miration at the conduct of Witlierford, and
with characteristic inagnaiiimity gave him his
liberty. Now, here was a case, in which if
Jackson was as ferocious and blood-thirsty as
his enemies falsely represent him, he might
have indulged it to satiety.——But what is his
behaviour? Why, he gives the noble savage
a safe conduct to his own people, and treats an
Indian in a manner that England refused to-
wards the GREAT NAPOLEON.”

. TUESDAY, MAY, 4, 1824.

To‘-morrow is the day appointed forthe .
meeting ofthe Legislatiire of this state, Gov.

r Further Contributions jbr the Greeks.—'-At’
a Ball lately given in Stamford, seventy-seven
dollars were contributed, and paid over to the
Treasurer ofthe Greek Ftind in New-York,
for .tlie benefit of the Greeks. ‘

' "The National Intelligenccr supposes that
Congress will adjourn abouttlie 25th of May,
unless kept together longer by the A. B. in-
vestigation, there appearing to be a general
disposition to ptit the finishing stroke to that
affair before the adjournment.

.4 treaty has been signed inLondon between
the American Minister, Mr. Rush, and Mr.
Stratford Canning, Coininission€is- for that
purpose, granting a mutual right Q/‘search to
the commissioned vessels of each nation, in
the case ofvessels suspected to be engaged in
the slave trade. The treaty will probably be
soon laid before the U. States Senate for its
decision thereon.

The National Intelligenccr corrects a mis-
apprehension which some persons have ob-
tained relative to the extent ofthe bill which
has passed the Senate abolishing Imprison-
ment for Debt, and states that it applies only
to cases in which the Courts of the United
States have cognisaiice. There is good
reason to believe however, that the ea:a.mple of
the general government will soon be followed
by the state governments.

Steam-Boat Controvers3.——-On Sunday
morning, 25th tilt. Mr. Gibbons’ steaui-boat,
the Olive Branch, left New—York for Alba-
ny (toticliing at Jersey City)with 100 passen-
gers. The North River Company have ino-
ved the Chancellor for an injunction, and yes-
terday was.appointed for the argument of the
question at: Albany. Messrs. Colden and Em-
mett were to appear in behalf ofthe applica-
tion,and Van Vetclier and Henry against it.

A report ofthe interesting case of Gibbons

against Ogden, with the arguments ofcounscl
at large, and the judgment of the Court, will
be shortly published in a pamphlet form, by
i_£I_eiiry \Vheaton, Esq.
"’\‘:‘-:”.?7Tlie number ofdeaths in New-York week
before last was 105—19 of small pox. In
Philadelphia the nuiiiber of deaths was 30-
7 ofsmall pox anti 9 of typhus fever.

Look out for a Villain.—The Berkshire
Mass. Star, cautious the public to look out for
a man ofthe name of Sewali '1‘. Mark, a tall
fleshy person of ferocious aspect, hair entirely
white, and rather long over the forehead, a-
bout 50 years of age. Mark had been etu-
ployed as an instructor in a school at 'I‘_vring-
ham, and with his wife boarded at the widow
Clark’s, with whose daughter he elopcil on
the 9th tilt. taking with her the property of
her mother in notes to the aiiiouiit of 5400,
and some valuable articles belonging to the
family. It appears that the present wife of
Mark is not the only woman he has abandon-
ed. The girl stoops a little,is ofthe middling
size, and has red hair.

Great Fir-e.—-On the 19th tilt. a fire broke
otit in the estate ofJaines Ridclle,Esq. at New
Castle, Delaware, which soon comiiittnicated
to the whole ofthe houses on the lower side of
Water st. aiitl a number on the opposite side,
destroying 21 in all. The lossis estimated at
about $150,000.

The extraordinary vessel, as regards her
size, now building at the Island of Orleans,
near Quebec, caught fire on the night of the
18th tilt. and it is said nearly forty feet of her
length were consumed commencing from the
bow. A fire had been made to dry the vessel.

Indian lands in Georgia.—Tlie select com-
mittee ofthe House of Representatives, to
whom was referred the Pi'csident’s message
and other docuuients relating to the Indian
lands in Georgia, have reported several reso-
lutions declaring, “ that the United States are
bound, by their obligations to Georgia, to take
iuiniediately, the necessary measures for the
removal ofthe Cherokee Indians beyond the
limits oftliat state: and that‘ the sum of
dollars should be appropriated for that pur-
pose.” The language ofthe report is intich
more decorous than that of the memorial
signed by the Georgia delegation, but its sen-
tiinents are quite as exceptionable. The
committee contend that the encouragement
which has been given by the goveriiiiieut to
the measures for civilizing the Indians, is a
violation ofits obligations to Georgia,and that
the Indian claim should be extinguished, even
if forceis required for that purpose. We can-
not believe that congress will ever sanction
such doctrines as tliese.-——.N'. Y. Observer.
Discoveries in the Moon-«All our readers
have heard of the “ man in the moon,” but he
has never told us half as much ofthe state of
aflairs there, as has lately been divulged by a
man out ofthe moon, one Professor Gruitliu-
isen, of Munich, who with the aid ofa tole-
scope, has made out a superb colossal build-
ing, near the equator ofthe moon,witli straight
rariiparts, that would defy the assaults ofall
the sons of earth. He has also found out stin-
dry traces ofciiltivatioii in the iuooii, but does
not state the quality or price of the lands, or
wlietlier they are sold on government account,
at long credit, payable in unctirrent money,
and take them back if you can’t pay, accord-
ing to the liberal custom in “ this region”——
but he states that the roadsjare regularly made,
and, from the whole ofliis account, there can
be btit little doubt that a trip to the moon,
would be a fiiiejauiit for flying travellers.

Growing prosperity of New-Orlean3.—It
would almost appear incredible, but yet it is
stated tliaton the 6th ultimo, there was in the
above port, 67 ships, 19.8 brigs, 52 schooners,
11 sloops, and 16 steam-boats, and with but
few exceptions they were all btisily engaged,
in either loading or discliaigiiig. This state-
ment does not include the Flat Boats or Arks,
vessels ofan immense size, and built for tern-
porary purposes, of which description there
are generally from 150 to 200 in port.

Quick Work.-—There is nothing calculated
to put down piracy equal to -prompt punish-
ment. An arrival at Boston from St. Croix,

v.

the 24th tilt. in Sail Rock_Passage, an Amer-
ican brig and a Spanish schooner were board-

, ed by an open boat, ull of pirates, and all
’ niurdered,exceptabuy, who saved his life

by swiinniiiig, near Porto Rico. He reached
land and gave information. The next day
the pirates began tocirculate the money rob-
‘bed from the vessels, in Porto Rico, were ap-
prehended, coiifessed their gtiilt, and seven
were hanged.”_ This proinptness must pro-
duce a good effect, and itis high time that pi_-
