_ ‘Some dissatisfaction has been expressed by
the fri'ends of the American Col. Society at
the course pursued by Mr. Dewey, in opetiing
a correspdnlience wiilt President Boyer, con-
trary to the views and wishes oftliat society ;
and at a meeting ofthe Managers ofthe N.
Y. Auxiliary Colonization Society, held on
the 21st inst. resolittions were adopted expres-
sive of their disapprobation of his proceed-
ings,,and of their determination to apply to
the Parent Society for removing him from his
comniissioii as Agent. These proceedings
were, in our view, unnecessary. Mr. Dewey
had previously resigned his oflice, and made
knowti to the Society his views of establisli-
ing a colony at Hayti. We have always
been friendly to the American Society, and
are now unwilling that the benevolent atid
mighty objects which it aims to accomplish
should be frustrated by any counter project,
just as they begin to promise success. But in
the proposed plans of Mr. Dewey and Presi-
dent Boyer we see no danger of this. It is
well known that many, whose‘ philanthropy
cannot be questioned, view the schemes ofthe
American Society as impracticable'and vis-
ionary—Tliese men will never lift a fitiger to
help forward the cause, and to tltetn,tlterefore,
the unfortunate black p_opiilatioii of this coun-
try will look in vai"n"for relief, unless some
other method of coinmiinicating it can be
devised. That method has been devised, and
meets with the wartn approbation and support
of these very individuals; and instead of
warring against the policy and benevolent
purposes ofthe American Society, so much
is absolutely gained to the cause ofhiimaiiity
by this new project. VVe see not, then, why
any jealousy should exist among the friends
of either system, so loitg as both are actuated
by-the same benevolent spirit, and botlt are
laboring in the same noble cause.

‘The Committee oflnvestigation ltave made
their final report in the case of Edwards vs.
Crawford, which, as was anticipated,.is the
same in substance, as the former ; although,
for some very wise reasons, probably, they re-
frain from expressing their opinion on certain
parts oftlte evidence laid before them, leaving
the public to make up tlieirinitids with regard
to it as they think proper. This report is lit-
tle more, says the Ititelligeiicer, than a cap-
tion to the great body of testimony which it
i_ntroduces to the attention ofthe American
people. Mr. Edwards resigned his commis-
sion as Minister to Mexico, immediately after
the Reportoftlte Committee was seitt to the
President, and before he had time to read it.
The cause of Mr. E’s resignation is said to be
that he may be present at the next session of
Congress to support his charges.

lVe request those of our readers who live
in the vicinity ofthe Bridge to pay a particti-
lar attention to the following Coninttmication.
The practice complained of by the writer has
long been it disgrace to our Village, and a
nuisance to the public. Thus early in the
season the evil is too glaring to be overlooked,
butas the warmth ofthe weather increases,
the evil will be increased with it, unless soitie
‘efiicient measures are adopted to put an im-
mediate stop to it. Is there not spirit enough
among our citizens to act with decision on
this subject?

There was a time, Mr.Printer, when mod-
esty was esteemed a virtue, peculiarly amia-
ble iii youth, and when decency, at least, was
respected by all ages; but alas, how are we
fallen! how awfully have we departed from
the purity of primitive manners! surely our
children render themselves vile; surely their
Parents and Guardians do not cotisider:——
else why is continued by otir boys 8,’ youtig men
and tolerated by the old, one of the most in-
decent and shameless practices that can dis-
grace our village? I hardly need tell you I
reler to the unseemly custom of bathing at
our public docks and wharves in broad and o-
pen day. It is notorious, that diiriiigthe warm
season, when the tide is in, you cannot pass
one ofour most public and frequented streets,
but must be seen groups, or to speak more
appropriately, herds of boys atid young men,

bathing in the most conspictious places ofour

harbor, and exhibiting within a few yards of
the main road and in full view ofhundreds of
our nien,wometi, and children, scenes disgus-

_ titig to every modest eye, and shocking to ev-

ery delicate feeling. Let me ask the sober,
thinking people ofNorwalk,ifthis is as itouglit
to he? Are these things to our credit? Shall
this opetrinsult to modesty, this outrage on
common decency be tolerated with impunity?
W'hat must strangers think ofiis as they pass?
Do our husbands and fathers wish to inure
their wives and daughters to scenes like these?

I do not, Mr. Printer, wish to deprive any
one of the pleasantand salutary exercise of
bathing; but I do wish, and there are many
and weighty reasons why my wish should be
regarded, to remove these bathing places at a
distance, a little out ofthe heart ofour village,
and away from the public eye. This ouglitto
be done by the good sense and determined
measures of parents and guardians ; but if
they have not sense ofpropriety and energy
of character sufiicient to break up this dis-
graceful practice, let the civil authority, if we
have any, do their duty ; let them exercise the
power which God and their Country have giv-
en them, to remove this foul ofi'et_ice: certain-
ly their popularity will not be hazarded by a
rigorous discharge-oftltis their bounden duty.

June 9.4tli.

At the request of a “friend,” residing in
.7V'e_w-Canaan, we give place to the following
article. Our correspondent doubtless intend-
ed it as a hit upon a certain Bank incorpora-
tedby thelatc legislature of this state: but
We think our readers will find no very serious
‘M_fiC“l‘.V {fl answering the assertions of the
‘"1101’: or in supposing that he may ltave been
actiiatedby the itiost patriotic feelings !

“There is nothing so prejudicial to the
well being oftliis community, nothing so hos-
‘[13 I0 111? genius 0fRepublicanisin, so incon-
ststent with common sense,.and so incompat-
ible with the actual enjoyment of civil liberty,
as the gigantic coalition ofavarice and specu-
lation, which, under the name ofBanks, is
daily.devoiiring‘ the fruits, and crippling the
etlorts ofindustry. It would require a volume
to point out all the deformities of this many
headed monster. Banks are most oppressive

inonopolies-sstocliholders and Directors en-l
joy most unequal aitd unmerited privileges;
by drawing interest on monies which they
have not; and they throw a dangerous and uri-
equal influence into'the hands of a few capi-
talists—'I‘ltey tend unfairly to increase the
store of the rich by virtually robbingthe poor.
These are only a few of the grounds on which
we deprecate Banks. Some ofthecbjections
we have pointed at might be obviated: the
stockholders, might, as in other partnerships,
he held itidividiially responsible. for the Coin-
pany’s Debts. But our oppositiori extends to
the wltole fraternity of secular jncorporattons.
They are ungenial to our political institutions,
-—they check the circulation of property, and
accumulate it in improper hands. In this
country wealth is power; and by the very
means which the community, through their
representatives, have gra_iit'ed_to capitalists of
indulging their eupidity without hazard or re-
morse, (for corporations have no conscience,
and the individuals ‘composing them no re-
sponsibility,) these same capitalists have ac-
quired a paramount influence over the peo-
ple. If ait efi"ort be itot soon made to burst
these ignominious bonds, the laboring and
productive part of this country will becotne
the mere slaves and drudges ofa inonied des-
potisni. The impolicy and immorality ofir-
responsible corporations cannot be siifiicient-
ly exposed. We have known instatices of
combinations of. inonied institutions in this
country for the like of which a society "of
cordwainers would have been indicted for con-
spiracy.” New-Caiiaan, June 25.

The Steam-Boat JOHN MAasriaLL,intend-
ed to ply between this place and New-York,
is expected to arrive in our harbor about the
middle ofthe present week. Preparations are
uiaking by the Matross Company to salute
her on her arrival.

The Nat. Intelligencer of the 25th contains
an appeal from the Managersoftlie Am. Col.
Soc. to the Christians ofthe United Statesin
be'lialfoftlte_blacks oftiiis country ; in which
it is earnestly requested that collections be
taken up on the 4th ofJuly, (next Sabbath) to
aid the funds of the Col. Society. Cannot
something be done in this place?

The Intelligencer of the .‘?.6th inst. says :-
A vessel of war is about to sail from the Unit-
ed States, which will touch at .Monrovt'a. Iti
her will go passenger, as Visiting Agent from
the Parent Board, the Rev. Mr. GURLEY,
Resident Agent ofthe Society. He will re-
main ott the Coast buta few days, to ascertain
with prccisioti the situation and wants of the
Colonists. Upon his return, ifnot before, it
is supposed, a permanent appointment ofA-
gent or Governor will be made, Dr. Ayres
having resigned, in consequence ofill l-iealtlt,
and Mr. Asliiniiii having left Liberia for one
of the Cape de Verd Islands, aitd not being
expected to resume the duties of Agent.

The only Crawford papers in this state are
the Ilzirtford Times, New -Loiidon Advocate,
Middletowii Sentinel,and Brooklyn Observer.
The New Haven Register says the Times has
been in market for about a year; the last Ob-
server invites a purchaser ; and the publisliers
of the Advocate have dissolved partiiersltip,
and the paper is now to be conducted by J.B.
Clapp, an orthodox Boston federalist.——
The Sentiuel’s turn may come next. \Vhat
is the matter ?

M. St. Clair Clark, clerk of the House of
Representatives, has been appointed to deliv-
er an oration at Vlfashington City on the 5th
ofJuly. Mr. George Vifashington Adams,
son of.lohn Q. Adams, is to deliver the Ora-
tion at Quincy on the 5th.

The Hon. Stephen Van Rensselaer has
been appointed presiding officer ofthe Board
ofCoinritissiotiers ofthe New-York Canal.

Spanish Clat'ms.—The New-York Marine
Insurance Company have received the sum
of Sl8l,000 9., being the amount awarded for
their claims on Spain.

The Hon. Mr. Webster, of Boston, ltas re-
ceived S70,000, as his conimissiotis for attend-
ing to the iiiteiests oftlte claimants under the
Florida treaty. It is stated that $1,400,000
have been awarded to the citizens ofBoston,
for their claims on Spaiti, and $1,600,000 to
citizens of Philadelphia.

C'orruplion of our Courts.—Jacob Hook, a
very wealthy man, was lately tried at Warren,
Peitn. for the murder of a Mr. \Vallace, and
acquitted by the jury. On the morning suc-
ceeding tlietrlal, Mr. Ira Dunn, one of the
jury, committed suicide. Before his death he
said he had committed perjury by means of
bribery, atid that he received no more than
the rest. It was also reported that Judge
Moore, who presided on the trial, received a
large sum oftnoney. Hook, since his acqui-
tal,appears very haughty and important.

./1_/iiican Colony.—The Petersburgh Intelli-
geiicer says—-We ltave before us a letter froiti
C. M. \Varing, one ofthe Colonists who went
out in the ship Cyrus from this port, the 10th
oflast January. It is dated Monrovia, the
10th April, at which time the new settlers, al-
tliongli some of them had been a little indis-
posed, were all getting better. The Colonists,
to be prepared for euiergency, were organiz-
ing a Military Corps; there were iii the set-
tlcinent eighty men capable of bearing arms.
The natives, we presume,liowever, as itotliiiig
appears to the contrary,were satisfied with the
subsisting peace. The letter coticliides as
follows :—“ Upon the whole, there is nothing
to fear_——coti;e to Africa,and tell all our friends
to come.”

Nortli River Steam Boals.—The regular
fare on board ofthe North River steam boats
from this city to Albany, is reduced to five
dollars; and on the days on which the Olive
Branch and an old line boat make the trip,
the fare ofthe latter is but Two Dollars !—
This will be fine for travellers, but we fear
otir friends the proprietors will not realize
itiucli from it.——.’V'. Y. Spectator.

Jln Imposlor.—A poor old mati, apparently
about 60 years of age, lately itiadeliis appear-
ance at Lockport, witliouta hat, atid seeming-
ly very tiiiicli agitated, and made oath be-
fore a magistrate that he had just been robbed
of3600; and after having ptit the civil au-
thorities to considerable trouble and expense,
this poor old man turned out to be an impost-
or, who was recently discharged froiti the Ver-
mont state prison.—-For while he was receiv-
ing the assistance and condolence-of the good
people ofLockport, he was arrested for pass-
ing counterfeit bills, when he confessed that

The U. S. steam galliot Sea Gull,Lt.Coin.
Voorhées, arrived at lvashington City on
Thursday, in 8 days from Matanzas, having
on board Commodore David Porter, Coni-
mandant of the West India station, and.his
family, with Capt. Finch, and several other
oti'icers,.all in good health. _

The U. S. schr. VVild Cat, Lt. Legare, has
also arrived at Washington, from Matanzas,
where she left on the 13th inst. the Terrier,
and Ferret scliooners. . _

The U. S. sclir. Granipiis, which has arri-
ved in the West Indies, left the Coast 0f~A.fl‘1-
ca about the 20th of April. The Colonists
at Cape Messurado were all healthy, and ma-
king great improvements in agriculture.

A letter from an officeroftlie Grampus,da-
ted May 12th, received at Norfolk, says, “VVe
ltave had the misfortune to have the fever a-
mong us, to which I regret to say, midship-
men Muir, Saterthwaite, and Mansfield, have
fallen victims.”

'We understandjthat orders have been issu-
ed by the Navy Department to equip the U.
States’ ship ofthe line, North Carolina, for
immediate service, and that she will bear the
Pendant of Com. John Rodgers.-—.N‘at. Int.

VVe have received by the Columbia, a Do-
minica paper of the 2d inst. An arrival at
Barbadoes, on the 26th tilt. from Cape Coast
had brought a confirmation of the total defeat
of Sir Charles Macafthy, with the troops un-
der his command. A Mr. Williams, is said
to be the only survivor, who made his escape
in almost a miraculous manner.—.Merc. ./ldv.

"We are grieved to learn, by Letters from
Arkansas, that the Hon. Joseph Selden, a
Judge of the U. States Court for that Terri-
tory, was killed in a Duel on the banks of the
Mississippi on the 96th ultimo. His wife and
one child are already on their way to Virgin-
ia, where Judge Selden was borit, bred, and
married. This gentleman was a distinguish-
ed ofiicer ofthe Army during the late war,
and previously to his leaving the Army for
the pursuit ofcivil life, had reached the brevet
rank ofLieute_tiant Colonel. He has left a
ituinerous circle ofconnectioiis and friends to
mourn over his untimely end.—.N'at. Intell.

Models of eloquence are to be found in the
Eighteenth Congress of which the tnost an-
cient and enlightened nations might feel proud.
Meiital nerveand power are no more confi-
ned to the bloated empires of the old world,
than animal bone and muscle. We have pro-
fiindity of thought, grasp ofidea, soundness
ofjudgemeut, power of analysis, quickness of
conception, and chastity ofstyle, which will
not suffer in comparison with the oratory of
tiiaturer natiotis. Nor are we deficient in the
less important province ot iniagination,wlteiice
the most sltewy ornaments of elocution are
derived. The spirit of poetry is not unknown
in the halls of Congress ; it exhibits itself as
frequently in the beautiful adaptation of fig-
ures to facts, as in the general euphony of ex-
pression,and, like the moon and star-lit firma-
nent—tlte poetry of lieaveii—casts a mellow-
ing infiiience over all around it. That the
characterofa nation gives the cast to its ora-
tory, may be proved by a reference to the vi-
oleiit gesticiilation of the Freitcli, and the
uiore plilematic rhetoric of the English par-
liamentary speakers. The same connection,
in a considerable extent, is perceptible iii the
U. States, where the fervid and impetuous el-
oquence oftlie south, the sturdy and unyield-
ing oratory oftlte west, and the plain,_ practi-
cal rhetoric of the cast, are arrayed, in our
federal legislature, in striking contrasts to
each otlier.—- Washington Republican.

The following description of the personal
appearance oftlte Marquis de la Fayette in
his youthful days, is given by a writer in the
Pennsylvania Village Record :—

“ The Marquis de la Fayette was one ofthe
finest looking men in the army, notwitlistand-
ing his deep red hair, which then, as now, was
rather in disreptite. His forehead was fine,
tho’ recediiig—liis eye clear hazel-—his month
and chin delicately formed, and exhibiting
beauty rather than strength. ']'he expression
of his countenance was strongly indicative of
the generous and gallant spirit which animated
him, uiingled with something of the pride of
conscious manliness. His meiti was tioble—
his manners frank and amiable and his move-
ments light and graceful. He wore his hair
plain, and never complied so far with the
fashion ofthe times as to powder.”

The Common Council of the city ofNew-
York have resolved to receive the Marquis La
Fayette in it public manner, and treatliim as
the guest ofthe nation, upon his arrival in
this country. A committee offive have been
appointed to prepare and furnish suitable a-
partments for liitti, and to conduct him to the
City Hall, where the Common Council Will
assemble to receive him. He may be expect-
ed in the course ofa few weeks.

The Pope has acknowledged the Independ-
ence of Colombia.

A conspiracy has recently been discoyered
in Mexico against the government and in fa-
vor ofltnrbide. About 30 persons have been
imprisoned.

Eleven pirates were taken on one of the
IV. I. Keys, by a party from Honduras, a few
weeks since. One of them has turned King’s
evidence.

his Books have been kept out for a considera-
ble length of time, and have passed through
various hands, witha compensation to him,
perhaps of for only once reading, renders a
scrupulous observance of these rules absolute-
