Mr. Macon moved to strike out entirely_ the

House of Representatives, ./"(I-_1/' 1l.——Mr.,
Strong, of N. Y. offered the following, \_Vhicli
was laid on the table, & ordered to. be P""“3‘l--

Resolved, That all moneys which Shall be
received on account ofthe sales of the public
lands, after the 4th ofJuly, 1395: °“§l“ ‘O be
appropriated exclusively to the support of
common schools, and the construction of ca-
nals and roads; atid that the said moneys
ought to be divided between the several states
and territories, in proportion to1he represent-
ation ofeach in the House ofRepresentatives,
and applied by them to the aforesaid purpo-
ses in such manner asCongress may prescribe.

The joint resolution for an adjournment
was taken up. Mr. Kramer opposed it, on
the ground that an important investigation
was pending before the house, which ought
to be terminated previous to adjournment.

An inquiry was _made‘ at what time Mr.
Edwards might by expected to arrive here.——
Mr. Cook of Illinois thought he might reach
this city on the 23d or 24th of this month.

Mr. Mallary observed, that much time had
been spent on the tariff. It was now before
the Senate, where numerous amendments
have been made to it. W'hén the bill should
be returned to this house, as amended, if it
pass the Senate, nuicli discussion will proba-
bly arise'on it,and a reasonable time should be
allowed for consideration of that bill. This
was due to the House and to the nation. It
was unworthy of the House to bind itselfto a
day, in order to spur meuibers on to diligence
and despatch. The first duty of the house
was to attend to the public business. The
resolution was laid oti the table.

The bill making appropriations for impro-
ving the navigation of the Ohio and Missis-
sippi river, was read a third time, passed, and
setitto the Senate for concurrence.

Mr. Livingston, from the committee of In-
vestigation iii the case ofNiuian Edivards,sta-
ted that the committee had received from the
Secretary of the Treasury a commutiication
in reply to the memorial of Mr. Edwards, and
asked that it might be printed ; which was
accordingly ordered. [The Nat. Int. states
that this communication ‘is said to be a tiiost
triumphant vindication ofhiin from the shad-
ows of imputatioiis conjured up against_him.’]

The Beaumarchais’ Claim was taken ‘up.iii
committee of the whole. Mr. Livingston
spoke in favor, and Mr. Randolph against it,
when the committee rose, and leave to sit a-
gain being refused, it was laid on the table.

Senate May lQ.——Much of this day was

spent on the tariff bill. Some unimportant
amendments were adopted, after which the
bill was ordered, 25 to 9.2, to be engrossed for
a third reading.
_ House qfReprescntatives, Jllay 12.—A bill
to authorize the territory of Florida to open a
canal through the public lands to unite the
river St. Jolin’s with the bay of Augustine,
was passed and sent to the Senate.

The bill to authorize the state oflndiana to
open a canal through the public lands, and
granting 90 feet of land on each side ofthe
proposed canal, was passed in committee of
the whole. The survey is required to be fiii-
ished within 3, and the canal within ‘.2 years.

The house went into committee on the bill
t for improving the harbor ofPresque Isle, and
for repairing Plymouth beach.’ The expense
ofthe first is estimated at 835,000, a part of
which will be defrayed byPennsylvania. Ma-
ny lives, and _miich property has been lost (or
the want of a good harbor there. $210,000

was inserted in the bill for this object.

Mr. Newton stated the circumstances of
Plymouth beach ; the value of that harbor to
all vessels pressed by hard weather in the vi-
cinitv ofCape Cod ; and the daiiger ofits be-
ing destroyed for want ofthe repairs contem-
plated ; and moved to fill the blank for this
work with 320,000, which was agreed to, after
Mr.Trinible,of Ken. had made some remarks
on the readiness of Western members to vote
for improvements on the sea-hoard, and the
liberality which members from the east had
recently sliewn in voting Improvements on
the Vllestern waters.

In the Senate, on the l4th,the tariff bill re-
ceived its 3d reading, was passed, 25 to 22,and
sent to the House for concurrence, w‘nere, on
the 1i5ith,_ the bill and amendments were read
and ordered to be printed. The following
are the ye’as bx. nays on the passage ofthe bill.

Advices from Pernaiiibuco to the 10th ult.

' state that Manuel de Anarado has been elect-

ed President of the Province, in spite of the

nottiination of the Emperor, in consequence

of which the port was that evening blockaded.
Anarado is very popular among the people.

Late advices from Buetios Ayres,‘_meiitioi'i
that a report had reached there that the Indi-
ans had made attack on the Governor of San-

ta Fe, and had defeated nearly the whole of

his army. The Indians about Buenos Ayres
were becoming very troublesome.

From the P1161:/l6.—-Tlle latest accounts
from Panama are to the zed March. ‘ News
had been received that the Spanish Generals
Canterac, and La Serna, had called a meet-
ing of their principal officers, at which it was
resolved not to acknowledge the absolute gov-
ernment ofthe King, should the Constitution-
al cause fail in Spain. They also despatched
a Colonel with proposals to the ‘Congress of
Peru, supposed to relate to an arrangement
for peace. The reply is said to be, that the
present Government could not enter into any
treaty without consulting the liberator, Gen-
eral Bolivar. A letter from Lima, -19th Jan.,

states that the Congress and General Bolivar

have appointed the Conde de St. Domas to

carry despatches to the Spanish Generals,

and it is supposed that Commissioners will
.soon be appointed to bring affairs to an amic-
able issue. , ; -

Boat Race.—We have been requested to
mention that a rowing match will take place
on Mr. Holly’s Mill Pond, in Stamford,on the
afternoon ofthe 25th inst. at 2 o’clock. The
boats are to start from the clam and row to the
head ofthe pond, at distance ofabout 1 mile.
The 8th annual meeting of the American
Bible Society was held in New-York, at the
City Hotel, on the 13th inst. Gen. Clarkson
was called to the chair. The address of the
President, the Hon. John Jay, who from age
and infirmity was unable to be present, was
read by Dr. Milnor. Letters from the Hon.
Bushrod VVashington, John Q. Adanis,Sniith
Thompson, and 6 other Vice Presidents ofthe
Society, apologising for their absence, was
read, after which the Treasurer exhibited his
report, from which it appears that the receipts
for the last year amounted to $42,416 95.-
Tlie total number of bibles and testaments, or
parts ofthe latter, which have been distributed
by the Society dtiritig the 8 years of its exist-
ence, amounts to 309,069.. There ha_ve been
added 47 new Auxiliary Societies during the
past year, making the whole number 407.

Variousresolutions were adopted,iIi support
ofwhich, and ofthe interests ofthe Society,
addresses were delivered by the Rev. Presi-
dent Day, the Rev. Drs. Rice and Miltior, the
Rev. Messrs. Peters, Cone, Tallmadge, and
Brown, the Hon. David Daggett, and General
Gaines. His Excellency Gov. Yates, Dewitt
Clinton, and the Judges of the Supreme
Court, were present at the Meeting. The in-
come ofthe Society during the 8th year ex-
ceeds that ofthe 7th by more than $3000.

The United Foreign Missionary Society
held their annual meeting last evening at the
City Hotel. The rootii was filled at an early
hour, and great numbers were unable to finrl
admission. Among the speeches delivered
was one by Sacliarissa, the venerable cliicfof
the Tuscarora lndians,iu his native language;
and a very handsome address in English by a
young man ofthe same nation, a pupil at the
Cornwall School. The exercises of the eve-
ning were closed with art Indian liyiuii, sung
by several Tuscoraras, Iiiale and female,
which afforded a fine specimen oftliat native
richness for which the Indian vocal music is
justly celebratcd.——.N'ew-York Daily fldv.

The Colombian vessels of war Bolivar, of
Q3 guns, and Boyaca, ofézi’, guns, arrived at
Pensacola on the 18th tilt. with their prize,
the Spanish corvette Ceres, of 38 guns,which
they captured on Sunday, the 4th ult. within
3 leagues ofthe Moro Castle, after a battle of
50 minutes. The Ceres had 30 men killed
and 60 wounded, of whom 30 have since died.
The Bolivarliail none killed and only 4 woun-
ded, among whom was Com. Beluche, very
slightly. The Boyaca had but one wotintlcd.
The Ceres was very tnuch cut to pieces. The
day before the action the Bolivar fell in with
the Colombian schr. Aiideriie, which had in
the night had an engagement with the Con-
tella, mistaking her for an eiietny. In the en-
gagenient, Capt. Hopner, ofthe Centella. re-
ceived a musket ball through his b0d_v,but was
expected to recover.

The U. S. schr. Sliarlc, T. H. Stevens,
commander, arrived at Charleston_ on the 2d
inst., from a cruize of 4 motitlis, last from
Key Vi/est in 5 days. The crew were all well
and none have died on board during the
cruize. Com. Porter had been at the Island
several weeks, and was actively employed in
Inaking such distribution ofthe forces under
his command, as to afford the best possible
protection to our commerce. The Commo-
dore, and the officers and men on Thomson’s
Island, as well asthose in the squadron, enjoy
excellent health.

Com. Porter landed from the John Adams,
oti the 1st inst. at Matanzas, where it is said
he will reside. The John Adams was to pro-
ceed in a few days for Vera Cruz. The De-
coy, and Sea Gull were at Matanzas, at the
above date, the latter had been disiiiasted.

Pi)-ates.——Late accounts represent that the
pirates appear in great numbers on the south
side of Cuba. Several vessels are reported to
have been capturld veryreceutly: among them,
an English brig, and Jll the crew murdered.

Between 2 and 300 feet of the towing path
on the aqueduct, over the Mohawk river,about
10 miles north of Albany was blown off on
Saturday night. ‘

A letter from St. Thomas ofthe 20th ult.
states that a violent shock of an Earthquake
was experienced there that morning at three
o’clock, during which a vessel bound into the
harbor with a cargo ofcoffee, was sunk.

Gun-Powder plot.—The Richmond Com-
piler itiforms that a Mr. Lyon, contracter on
the James River Canal, was aroused from his
sleep on Saturday morning at 3 o’elocit, by a
negro who handed him a small box, saying it
was from his friend E. The negro precipi-
tately retired, and Mr. Lyon placed the box
under his bed, but a glimmer oflight appear-
ing in the rootii,lie examined the box, 8L found
it to contain 6 or 8 pounds of gunpowder, in
a small keg, and 2 candles which were burn-
ing very low. In a few minutes an explosion
would have taken place, and Mr. L. might
have been blown to atoms. A man who had
been deprived of the contract Mr. L. has ob-
tained, has been arrested on suspicion.

A subscription for the Greeks has been
commenced at Calcutta, and up to the 8th of
Jan. 18,764 sicca rupees had been subscribed.

The Small Pox appears, from the Charles-
ton papers ofthe lst inst., to be raging in most
parts ofthat city, in consequence of which
passengers and crews from other ports were
strictly examined, and vessels having the dis-
ease on board ordered from the harbour.

Vaccinali'on.——-A circumstance recently
took place in the Hospital in Providence,
which corroborates the opinion of its efficacy.
A person with the small pox was lauded from
a sloop from Baltimore, together with a pas-
sengerwho never had the disease. The for-
mer was very sick, the latter was immediately
vaccinated and re_mained with him. A nurse
attended the sick person, having an infant
with her, who.ha‘d never had the ‘small pox,
but was also vaccinated immediately, and re-
mained with its mother. The vaccine matter
prevailed, and neither ofthe two were in any
way affected with the symptoms of small pox.

England may be denominated the “ Great
Banking House,” of Europe. Within the

last year, she has loaned to other States over
Two Hundred and Twenty Million Dollars.

./Iricara Indt'ans.——Accounts were received
at Franklin, (Missouri,) on the 24th of March,
from otficers ofthe Artny at Fort Atkinson,
stating that “five or six more belonging to Mr.
Frazeau’s trading establishment, were lately
killed near the Aricara village, while ascend-
ing the Missouri river. They were conveyed
in a batteau, and were going up for the pur-
poseof trading with the Mandans and Arica-
ras. Within one day's voyage oftlle Aricara
village, the patrooti, apprehensive of danger,
left his company, and proceeded by land.—
He promised to rejoin them at the Maudans,
whose town, one mile above the Aricara’s, he
entered under cover ofthe night. The day
after his arrival,-he. received news that his
men were all murdered, his cargo captured,
and his boat stink. The amount of goods ta-
ken, was, at cost, $1500. Mr. Tilton, a trad-
er ofthe Matidans, sent one ofhis men to the
river for water, who was also met and killed
by an Aricara Indian.” I '

Extract ofa letter from Vlfashington dated
May 5, to the editor ofthe N. Y. Spectator:

‘ Mr. Calhoun has gone to his seat near
Georgetown, and the town house is closed.—
He attends, however, at his 'of1’ice. Iliave
just seen him at a party at General Brown’s.
He seems very cheerful, and I am told, digests
his unliorsing like a philosopher. Gen.Jack-
son was there at the same time. He convers-
cs constantly, and with great life and spirit.-—
His manners are conciliating, and evince no-
thing of that severe decision which appears so
conspicuously in his public course. Mr.Clay
is thought by some to seem a little more irri-
table than at the COl)lH)enCel'll.’.nt of the ses-
sion. His health, however, isfrequently in-
terrupted. Mr. Craivford is little or no better.
It is said he can scarcely distinguish his most
intimate friends,liis sight is so inuch impaired.
Certain it is, that when at the House the oth-
er day, he did not know a gentleman who had
formerly sat in the cabinet with him daily,un-
til his name was tneiitiotied. He comes occa-
sionally to his office, but, I am told, neither
reads nor writes. Mr. Adams lbelieve enjoys
very perfect health. He bathes every morn-
ing in the Potomac, and ha_s done so for ina-
zzy summers past.’

Another bill, embracing an important prin-
ciple-connected with the power of Congress
to appropriate money for the purposes of Iii-
ternal Ittiprovetiient, was yesterday passed to
its third reading, in the House ofRepresenta-
tives, by a large majority. It proposes to ap-
propriate money for experiments towards fa-
cilitating the navigation of the Rivers ofthe
West—an object of great interestto the wes-
tern ‘country, whose wishes and feelings the
House has thus evinced a éecitletl disposition
to consult and propitiate. -The principle of
this bill has been, heretofore, recognized in
part, if not to its full extent, by the appropria-
tion ofa sum ofmoney forthe purpose of ex-
amining the obstructions in this iiavigation,
upon which at report has been Iiiade by the U.
States’ Topographical Engineers. lVe are
agreeably disappointed, however, to find that
this bill has iriet _witli so little opposition.-—
'.'t‘he bill was reported, frotn the Couiinittce on
Roads and Canals, by Mr. Henry, of lien. on

A letter received in Philadelphia, from an
officer ofthe Cyane, dated March §'.2d, states
that that vessel had a passage of9.2 days from
this port to Ciherbourg. (She sailed Feb. 24.)
Mr. 81. Mrs.Brown,a day or two after their ar-
rival, left Cherbourg for Puris,expressing their
warmest tliauks for the kindness and attention
shown to them by the captain and all t-lie offi-
cers on board the Cyane, The expression
was conveyed in :1 very flattering letter to the
Captain, to whom Mr. Brown presented, as a
token of his grateful ackuowledgments,a large
and splendid silver ewer. Before parting they
all partook of a handsome dinner given, by
the Aniba.ssador.—N'. Y. paper.

./9 Rumor, atid as such we give it, has reach-
ed us by the steain-boat of this morning from

the Legislature, for the purpose of recom-
mending the passing of the electoral law ! 5-

views is, that the governor in declining to rec-
ommend its passing before, went on the pre-
sumption and belief, that Congress would
have taken some decisive steps for effecting
siicii an amendment to the constitution ofthe
U. States as would render the mode ofclioos-
ing electors uniform throughout the Union.—
The senate ol the U. States having declined
to act on the subject, and the people ofN.York
having plainly signified their wish to have a
voice in the approaching choice of the chief
magistrate of the country, the governor, yield-
ing as it is said, to this reasonable desire, has
determined on the step above referred to.

Riot.—Our Correspondent in Perth,Upper
Canada, writes to us as ‘follows :—“I regret
to have occasion to communicate a disagree-
able occurrence which occupies much of the
public attention in this neighborhood. The
Irish Emigrants who arrived in this settlement
last season under the auspices ofGovernment,
and siiperintendance ofthe Honorable Peter
Robinson, are carrying their outrages to such
extremes as almost to baffle the _ efforts ofthe
civil authorities to keep them in check. On
the 236 of April, His Majesty’s Birth Day, a
part of one ofthe Militia Regiments assem-
bled for training at Murphy’s falls in thetown-
ship of Ramsay, when such scenes of outrage
took place as would require an abler pen than
mine to describe :—wliile a party, principally
Scots, were drinking His Majesty’s health in
the hotise ofMr. Alexander Morris, they were
attacked by the Rallygibinets, as the Irish
etiiigrants term themselves, the windows stove
infirm] the floor and walls literally washed
withblood. A gun was forcibly taken frotii
one of the party in Morris’ house, and the per-
son who carried it off was wounded by a shot
fired at him when malting his retreat with the

rize. Since the 23d, fresh outrages have
been committed ; a Captain Glendinning of
the 4th Carlton Militia, has almost been mur-
dered, and the house of Mr. Morris, who from
personal dread had left it, was on Monday

had been issued.——.Monlreal Herald.

On the 8th inst. a man "named William Par-
adise, near Millsborougli, Delaware, was cor-
recting his son, aged about 17 years, for some
fault which he had committed ;, the youth, re-‘
sisting, seized the weapon, and attempted to
run out ofhis reach, when the aggravated fa-
ther got his gun and shot him on the spot !—
He expired in about 15 minutes.

DREADFUL DISASTER.—On Sun-
day evening, about 7 o’clock, as the Steam-
Boat IETNA, Capt. Robinson, was on the way
to this city frotn VVashington, N Jersey,wlien
in sight of, and about 4 I-E2 miles from the
city, bursted her centre boiler. . The explos-
ion was so violent that almost every thing in
the cabins were demolished, the deck torn to
pieces, and the vessel rendered a complete
wreck. But what renders this occurrence
most distressing, and has casta gloom over
the city, is the destruction ofthe lives ofthe
persons on board, to the nuinber,as near as we
can asc_ertaiIi,of about thirteen. [According
to one account it appears that 8 persons were
killed, and the satne number wounded.] The
passengers, at the time of the accident, were
chiefly in the centre cabin, near -the boiler,
where they had gone-on account of the cool-
iiess ofthe weather. In this cabin, 4 ladies
were killed, members of the family ofMr.
Job Furman, ofthis city. One lady was kill-
ed in the after cabin, and a gentleman was
killed on deck. The whole number ofpers-
ons on board was 34.

Mr. Charles G. Hollingshead, a passenger,
of Princeton, and Capt. Myres, Iiiate of the
.7Etna,jumped overboard—but held on by the
sides ofthe boat,and got on board when the
danger was over.-——-The engine of the Et-
na, it is said, was constructed on the high
pressure principle, from which we believe
tiiost of the accidents ofthis kind have been
caused. The boiler was ofiron. The boat
was moving at a slower rate than usual, not
on a strife with other boats,none beiugin sight
at the time. '

The steam boat United States, Capt.Beech-
er, was on the way from N. Brunswick at the
time, and soon after came up, and after ten-
dering all the assistance in her power, towed
the .7Etna to this City. Capt. Robinson de-
sires us to express his sense of the obligations
he is under to Capt. Beecher for his kindness
on the occasion.

Fire.—-The workshop ofthe U. S. arsenal
at Harpers‘ ferry, Va. was entirely consumed
by fire on Saturday last the 8th inst. The
building was about I50 feet long by 50 wide;
and upwards of 200 workmen were employed
in it. It will be a loss to the United States of
from 80 to 100,000 dollars.
