leaving the Justice to decide the case.

An actin addition to ‘ an act concerning

A resolution was introduced for the ap-
pointment of a committee to take into con-
sideration the law of this State on the sub-
ject of Hawkers, Pedlars and Petty Chap-
meti-passed.

The committee ofconference on the bill re-
_l_ating to Deeds without seal reported. The
bill had passed this House and the Sennte had
sent it back with an amendment, providing
that no suits now pending should be affected
by the bill. The House adhered to their vote
on the bill.

Gersliam Burr, Brigadier General of the
4th Regt. Infantry, tendered his resignation
which was accepted.

May ‘.’0.——A bill for a public act was intro-
duced, intended to give towns power to regu-
late the height of fences, by by-laws.

Several bills were introduced and passed
for the appointment of Judges of Probate in
Fairfield County.

The committee on the petition of the town

The committee to whom was referred so
much of the Governor’s Message as relates to
a communication from the Gov. ofKentucky,
reported with a resolution authorising the
Governor to interchange the laws and certain
documents with the Executive of other States.
The resolution passed. '

The Billfor a public act to incorporate the
Norwalk Bank Company came to a second
reading, and was re-coniinitted.

The Bill for a public actproviding for the
choice of members of Congress by Districts
came to a third readinrr.

The committee of conference on the bill
for the repeal ofthe law relating to Briefs, re-
ported. On motion to re-consider and concur
with the Senate, considerable debate arose.

Messrs. Russ, Swan, Haley, and E. Tracy
were decidedly opposed to the concurrence.
They considered that the system of begging
was already sufiicientlyin operation, and by
repealing tliislaw the contribution would be
continually going round their meeting-houses,
and people whose circumstances were such
that they ought not to give, would hardly dare
refuse. There were already an abundance of
cent societies, mite societies, missionary soci-
eties, and various other begging institutions
sufficient to drain the pockets of most people
who were not rich, thro’out the country, and
there ought to be some check upontliem. Tho’
good, under proper management, they might
be carried to excess, and be abused.

Messrs. Tuthill, Samuel Raymond, and se-
veral other gentlemen spoke in favor of the
motion. They urged that a repeal oftliis law
would bring all denominations upon a level,
and leave all classes of community free to
give or not, as they choose—That the selfish-
ness so natural to the human heart seldom led
men to err by giving too much. They offer-
ed other reasons at considerable length in sup-
port ofthe motion. But the House refused to
re-consider and concur.

CONGRESS.

House of Representatives, .May15.—-—The
House took up the amendments proposed by
the Senate to the bill for the revision of the
tariff, which were chiefly, with the exception
ofa few items agreed to. The following prin-

orem,’ was disagreed to, by Yeas 97, Nays 96.
The Speaker voted with the Nays, by which
an cqttal division was produced and the provi-
so rejected.

The amendment which proposes to strike
out a duty of 4 1-2 cents per square yard on

cipal one ‘ On Woollens, 20 per cent. ad val- .

cotton bagging, was also disagreed to by Yeas
82, Nays 108. -

The important amendment proposing an
additional duty on foreign spirits of 15 per ct.
was agreed to—Yeas 109, Nays 83. ‘ ‘-

VVhen the House had got through the bill,
Mr. Moore, of Kentucky, ‘Inatle a motion 10
reconsider the vote on woollens,- which was
rejected—-Ayes 94, Nays 100. Adjourned.

Jmm.da_i/, ,Ma_i/ 17.—The Senate determined
(by the casting vote ofthe Vice President) ‘to
adhere to the proviso in the Tariff Bill, liniit-
ing the duty on coarse woollens to 25 per ct._ad
val.whicli the House had refused to concur in.

The Senate also refused (25 to -21) to re-
cede froui their amendment by which the du-
ty on comm bagging was stricken out, in
which the House had_refused to concur. _

From the two other amendments, in which
the House had refused to concur, the Senate
receded. These proceedings were sent 10
the House—-VVhcn the question was taken on
receding from the amendment respecting the
duty on woollens, and the yeas were Sit, nays
93. The Speaker voting in the negative the
motion was lost. So the House refused to
recede from its disagreetneiit to the amend-
ment of the Senate (as above stated) auditi-
sisted on striking out the proviso, and on re-
storing the duty of 37 1-9. per cent.

The question on receding from the second
amendment (respecting cotton bagging) being
taken, it was decided by yeas and nays as fol-
lows—yeas 87, nays 104.

Mr.Taylor moved that a committee of con-
ference be appointed on the part of this House
to meet a similar committee on the part of
t e Senate, should the same be appointed, to
confer on the two points in which the Houses
disagree: which motion was agreed to.

May l8.—The Senate agreed to appoint a
committee of conference upon the point of
difi"erence between the two Houses on the tar-
iff; aiid Messrs. Lloyd, Smith and VVilliams,
were appointed that committee.

After a very long debate the House ofRep-
resentatives this day resolved to adjourn on
the 27th inst. This determination was taken
after ascertaining that Mr. Edwards would
not probably (arrive at \Vashington before
some time iu_June. The committee ofinves-
tigation are expected to report in a day or two.

JlIa_i/19.—Tlie Committee ofconference re-
ported, and recommended two propositions
which were accepted by both houses, and the
bill PASSED. By these propositions the Sen-
ate recedes froui its amendment on cotton
bagging, and the House agrees to the amend-
nieiit relating to flannels and baizes.

The Senate agreed to the resolution ofthe
House for adjourning on the 27th inst.

Steam .N.(l‘l."l'.g‘(!l1:O7l.--II’) the House,L\Ir.Vin-
ton offered the following,whicli was agreed to.

“ Resolved, That the Committee on Com-
merce be instructed to inquire into the expe-
diency of providing by law, that no license to
navigate any ofthe waters of the U. States
shall be granted to any boat or vessel hereaf-
ter built and moved or propelled by fire or
ste:iin,upon the principle ofconstruction com-
monly called “high pressure ;” nor to any
boat and vessel heretofore built and moved or
propelled by fire or steam, that shall hereaf-
ter be fitted up or provided with any engine
or other machine intended to move or propel
such boat or vessel upon the principle of con-
struction aforesaid.”

On the Qoth and 21st, the House was chief-

ly employed in disctissing the bill for settling
the Vice President’s accounts by an appro-
priation. The blank was finally filled with
the sum ofS60,.°239 24, and the bill was order-
ed to be engrossed for a third readiuv.
The bill for a revision ofthe Tariffofduties
on Iiriports has, at length, passed both Houses
of Congress, and wants only the signature of
the President to becouie a law. That signa-
ture, there is no reason to doubt, it will re-
ceive, and it may be spoken of, by anticipa-
tion. as the law ofthe land.

Upon the passage oftliis act we have little
room for comment. It is not the bill origin-
ally reported, its very nature being essentially
changed by the amendments which, in its pro-
gress to maturity, it has undergone in both
Houses, and particularly in the Senate.
it now stands, it has some good features, and
few objectionable ones. It augments the tin-
ties oii many articles, but not to such an a-
mount as to make them prohil-iitory, or op-
pressive in their operation. The objection to
the principle ofthe bill in the Southern coun-
try aiid in some ofthe commercial districts,
will still have their original force ; but those
which are founded on apprehensions of its
practical operation, will not, we think, he re-
alized. As the duties are not so far increased
as to amount to a prohibition, the effect ofthe
bill will be, after this year, to add to the rev-
enue an aniount,variously stated, of from one
to four millions of dollars. Vile do not iiitich
want the revenue, but, by this addition, the
government will be able so uiiich more rap-
idly to reduce the national debt, and thus to
prepare the nation more firmly to bear up
against adverse circumstances, should it have
again to encounter them, as it has done liere-
tofore.-—.N'alional Intelligenccr.

John Q. .fldams.—-It must be in the highest
degree gratifying to the friends and support-
ers ofJohn Q. Ad-ams,,to find, that amid all
the angry and vindictive criminations going
on at VVashington, between the chief men of
the nation, he, and he alone almost, stands
firm, collected, cool-—purs_uiiig the straight
line of his duty, neither turning aside to con-
ciliate friends nor to overthrow opponents.-—
.Wliile Congress and the cabinet, exhibit the
melancholy and degrading spectacle of the
partisans of rival candidates, seeking to de-
molish the reputation and character of each
other’s favorites, Mr. Adams, conscious ofhis
own rectitude, asking nothing,froni oblivion or
concealment, and relying upon the good sense
and integrity oftliis people to observe, appre-
ciate and reward the undcviating and single
hearted fidelity and patriotism with which he
dsscliarges the duties of his office, is calui a-
mid the general tempest, neither assailing nor
assailed, looking back without regret, and for-
ward without apprehension. To such a man
the destinies ofthis nation may safely be coni-
mitted ; and to such aman,every day strength-
cos the conviction, that they will be commit-
ted at the approaching election.—-JV‘. Y./lmer.

 

A French frigate arrived at Gibraltar April

TUESDAY, MAY 25, ism. .

.N'orwalk Steam-Boat.——The elegantSteam
Boat Joiiiv MARSHALL, (named after Chief
Justice Marshall) inteuded_ to ply between N.
York and this place, was launched at New-
York last Saturday. She is built of the best
materials, and copper-fastened throu’ghout.—
Her engine is to be made on the lowprcssure
principle. She will be ready to commence
her trips the latter part of June.

Coitnierfeiters taken.—In consequence of
information received at the N. Y. Police_ Of-
fice a week or two since, an extensive estab-
lished for counterfeiting Bank Notes has been
discovered in Darien, at the house owned and
formerly occupied by Mr. Henry Bates, but
since last fall occupied by a Mrs. Goldsboro,
who pretended to keep boarders. On the 18t|i
inst. Messrs Hays and Hoinan, police officers,
accompanied by an officer of Darien,proceed-
ed to the house and secured two men, named_
Norton 8:. Russell, while in the act of altering
New-Haveti ones into tens. On the 19th they
were committed to Fairfield Jail,to await their
trial. The keeper of the house, who was
charged with having passed counterfeit mon-
ey in New-York, was taken to the city. Up-~
wards of 10,000 dollars of counterfeit money
is said to have been found in their possession.
Some good money, in one dollar bills, intend-
ed for alteration, was also found. The alter-
ation was made by a chemical process, by
which the original dies were taken out, when
new cries were stamped with much ingenuity.
All the tools, plates, paper,8Lc.ofthe concern,
were seized. Among the counterfeits found
were 5’s of S. Gira'rd’e Bank, 5’s ofthe Onta-
rio Bank,and 3’s ofthe NewBrunswiclt Bank,
the latter of which is said to be a perfect imi-
tation of the true bills.

It is now ascertained that 10 persons were
killed by the bursting ofthe boiler of the [Et-
na on the 15th inst.: their names are as fol-
lows: Mrs. Sarah Furman, wife of Mr. Job
Furnian, ofNe‘.v-York, aged 44; Mrs. Merse-
role, daughter of Mr. Furnian, married about
6 weeks since, aged 29.; Mary Furman, sister
of Mr. Furnian, aaed 54; Caroline Furman,
daughter of Mr. Furmaii, aged 10; Mary
Bates, aged 9; Nancy Douglierty, Mrs. Tay-
lor, Alex. Cromwell, Victor Grasse, and Mor-
decai C. Peters. Besides those who died 7
were scalded, 5 oftlienidangerously. From
the above it will be seen that this disperisation
has fallen heavily on Mr. Furrnan. Four of
the too who were killed were feuiales of his
family. They left the city that mt)i'nii)g for
Elizabethtown, to attend the funeral of Mrs.
Price, a niece ofMr.F’s. \Vhile at the house
ofiiiourning an infant child ofMrs.Price,dicd.
and was buried in the same coffin with its
mother. Mr. Furman was indisposcd, and
the family were anxious to return the same
eveninv. The hour when they were expect-
ed had gone by, and he was anxiously revolv-
ing in his mind what could have detained
them. when the messengers arrived with the
sad tidings, and were soon followed by the
dead bodies of his wife, daughter, sister, and
niece. The next day they were all buried in
one grave. Thus were six meinhers of one
family consigned to the ‘narrow cell,’ to which
we are all bound, within the space ofQ4 hours.

It is a mirucalous circumstance, that a latl
belonging to Mr. Furuian’s faiiiily, who was
sleeping on the covering of the boiler at the
moment of explosion, was thrown into the air
8 or 10 feet, and fell into the vacuum caused
by the removal of the inacliinery, and esca-
ped without injury I The Statesrnan iiien-
tions that the captain and Mr. Merserole first
entered the cabin after the explosion, the lat-
ter exclaiming, my wife! my wife! as he
caught her, and ran upon deck, only in time
for her to expire in his arms. He had been
married but about six weeks.

It was a very providerizial circumstance for
Mr. John Randolph, of Virginia, who came
on to New-York that day, on his way to Eng-
land, that he took the regular line. The In-

liotlier line he might have been by this tiuie on
his journey to ‘that bourne whence no travel-
ler returns.’ This distressing accident,
which was occasioned by a high pressure en-
gine, has called forth an universal execration
of the use oftlieiii, and it is expected that a
law will soon be passed prohibiting their use.
The subject has already been taken tip in the
House of Representatives ofthe U. S.

A plan for propelling boats by steam, with-
out boilers, has recently been invented, and it
is contemplated to try the experiment of one
ofthese engines on the /Etna. A Phil_adel-
pliia paper says, “ If it should succeed, (of
which we have little doubt)tlie recgrreiice of
those dreadful accidents may be avoided.”

Voice of Connccticut.—A Meeting of the
Republican Members of the Legislature of
this State, was held at New-Haven on the
920th instant,at which the Honourable David
Hill presided, when it was voted to proceed to
ballot for the person whom they would nomin-
ate to their fellow citizens as themost suitable
candidate for the office of President ofthe U.
States. The ballots were as follows: Hon.
John Q. Adams, 19.4: Andrew Jackson, 14;
Wm. H. Crawford, 7; Henry-Clay, 9.. A
resolution was accordingly passed, recom-
mending the Hon. John Quincy fldanis.

A letter from Little Rock, dated April I8,
states that orders have been received at Fort
Smith for the immediate reuioval ofthe troops
at that post to the junction of the Virdigris
and Arkansas,about 80 miles above Ft.Sniith,
and 50 below the Osage Village, where a new
establishment is to be formed. It is a coin-
nianding and healthy situation, and well cal-
culated to give security to our western frontier.

The differences with the Osagcs still re-
main unsettled, and there is not much pros-
pect of its being otherwise without a brush
with them. It is certain that nothing can be
effected by negociation, unless backed by a
respectable force. The new location of the
garrison may have a tendency to bring them
to terms, and will doubtless have a salutary
influence on their future conduct. '_

The Seneca Indians.—We are happy to
perceive, that the government ofthe U.States
continue to manifest, on every occasion, a
deep interest in the welfare ofthe Indians.-—
From a communication in the last number of
the Western Recorder, it appears, that the

true eaannom l

ielligencer remarks, that had be taken the"-

Agent for the Six Na'tion‘s,_has censured, in
veryisevere terms, the tiiiprovoketl attack of
Red Jacket and his coadjutors, on the mission
family at Seneca. The letter ‘directs the a-
gent to inform Red Jacket, that the govern-
ment would notice no. more communications
from him or his party, as containing the sen-
timents ofthe tribe, andthat he would be held
responsible by the government for any vio-
lence* he might do the persons or property of
the mission family, or those associated with
them for Christian instruction.—-.N'. Y. Obs.
[* Note.—Red Jacket had threatened to
burn down the mission house and effects, as
soon as vacated by the faniily.]

Graphic Kalei'doscope.—An invention of
great importance in the arts, and particularly
in bank note engraving, has lately been per-
fected by Mr. William J. Stone, of Washing-
ton, by which an endless variety of figures can
be produced, in a manner that we believe to
be inimitable. \Ve camiot give the reader a
better idea. ofthe peculiar powers ofthis ma-
chine, than to compare it to a Kaleidoscope,
in forming combinations ofthe most beautiful
figures that can be imagined. They are form-
ed of one continued line, crossing and en-
tangling themselves in the richest variety.
This apparatus is composed of two cylin-
ders,on the surface ofwhicli levers are attach-
ed, with nioveable ftilcrums, and, as the cyl-
inders pass and repass each other, they shift
the fulcrunis in the evolutions, which give
motion to another lever ofsingular construc-
tion, and to which a chisel is attached for cut-
ting the figure. Nothing that we are acqtiaint-
ed with, in the whole circle ofthe arts, pres.-
ents such a formidable object to forgery ; and
we are assured, by the inventor himself, that
no two machines of this description can ever
produce the same work.

Here, then, it is probable, is the desidera-
ttini so long sought for by the Bank of Eng-
land, and for wliicb so tempting a premium
has been offered. The inventor, we are told,
is so confident of the utility of his discovery,
that he intends to repair to London, for the
purpose of submitting it for inspection in that
inetropolis.—-Wash. Gaz.

We learn that Mr. Seabury, of Sag-Harbor,
aged 29, who had just removed with his fain-
ily to Stonington, Conn. where he was about
establishing 21 Weekly newspaper, dropped
down in the street at the latter place on Fri-
day last, and expired in a few minutes, with-
out any previous indisposition.—.Merc. fldv.

Canal Rcvenuc.—The immense revenue
the state will derive from her canals when
completed, will infuse life and energy into all
her operations, and enableher to grasp the
most splendid objects that do honor toa repub-
lican government. .She will become the boun-
tiful patron ofthe arts and scieuces—of liter-
ature and philosophy. That this is no idle
dream of fancy begins now to be developed.
During the first five days of canal navigation,

seven thousand dollars for toll : and in one in-
stance, a single boat paid upwards of$200.——
From 40 to 60 boats pass the lock at this city
