Mr. Hague rose to make expltiiizitioiis.—
Lafayette had spent his fortiir_i_e in otir service‘,
‘and we were called onby dutylat least to re-
ftiiid the expenses to which lielias been’ stib-
jected. He held-Va paper in his hand which
‘contained accoiiiits frnin the proper ofiiccrs
sliewiiig -‘tliese ‘expenses, and the iuanner in
which an-estate ofS29,000 yearly iuconie had
been dissipated in the service of.l_ibcrty.‘.’ _
From -1777 to 1783.li‘e,expeuded, in the A-
merican’ service $128,000. He purclias‘cd_a
ship—;'raised, equipped, and clothed a regi-
iuent of soldiers; d__i,stributetl gratuitously to
ourariiiies niuiiitions of _war, bee. But
he aglted for no coiiipensatioti,—lie made out
no a'c'r‘ou_iit-—“l2e received no pay, until 1704,
when Congress gave him the pay ofa Major
General, to which ._he was entitled 1-1» years
before. Ifau American citizen had done as
nitich, and brotiglitinjan account of$‘140,000.
which he had expended, would it have been
refused ? Indeed, if we were to ttiake out an
‘hiccotiiit current with Lafayette it would far
exceecl this sum. But he had never rendered
a claiiii-—lie would have starved cre he would
have done it. _
In ’83 Congress made a grant to the Gen-
eral of 11,520 at_:t‘es of land, which he was
ttlllllOl‘lS€(I to locate in any ofthe vacant lands
in the territory of Orleans. In 1806 the agent
ofthe General did locate 1000 acres adjoining
N. Orleans city. In 1807, Congress, wholly
overlooking this circumstance, granted to the
(-ityol'New Orleans a space 600 yards around
the fortifications ofilic City, including a val-
uable portion ofthe hind which had been eu-
tcred by the General. He was informed of
this act, and advised that his title was good,
and that the property was worth S50,000.——-
The General replied——“ that he would not
consent even to inquire into the validity of
his title; that he could not think of entering
into a litigation with any public body in the
U. States; that the property had been gratui-
tously bestowed by the U. States, and it was
with them to say what had been given.” He
therefore directed his agent to relinquish his
entry, and make a location elsewhere. This
had beendone, and the certificate from the
Land Office, proves that the land substituted
for that which has been lost, is of very iticon-
sidcrable value. General La Fayette, how-
ever, did not stop liere—-lie had been iiiduceti
to dispose ofa part of his interest in this land,
to an lrisli baroiict, Sir Josiah Cogliill. His
coiitruct with this gentleman crcated,ofconrse
iuticli embarrassment to liitii ; but the general
only considered that it iiiiglil also embarrass
the government ofthe United States. He made
an appeal to that gcutlenian, who with a lib-
erality worthy of all praise, agreed t0~reiin-
J2‘
accepted a claim on other lands in satisfac-
tion for them. On a pottioii ofthe latid,tliiis
generously relinqiiislied, now stands a valua-
ble part ofthe city ofNew Orleans, valued at
froiii_/bur tojive hundred thousand dollars.
In reply to Mr. Macon, Mr. I-laync enumer-
ated many instances where the Gov’t. had
granted remuneration for serviccs—aniong
others he mentioned the case ofFrcdcrick
William Baron Steuben. But, he said, the
case of Lafayette could form no precedent;
yet, it this country could be born again, and
be reduced to eqtial distress, and when about
to perish a foreign nobletnan should step forth
and devote his life and foituiie to her service,
shed his blood in her cause, and while the
scale was depressed, by throwing liiiiiselfiiito
the balance, decide her fate, what gratitude
would he not deserve and receive.
To Mr. Browii’s objection to the creation of
stock, he replied that it was intended as a
uionuiiieiit of their gr;itiludc—it would re-
imtiii on the books to the last; and when they
had redeemed all other debts, then they would
redeein the dcbl ofgralitude which they owed
to a distinguislietl soldier. The tract oflarid
would add to the grace ofthe gift. Such acts
()llL1lll.l0 be done _'_tr:icel'iilly. It would make
a favorable iiiipii.-ssion abroad. '
Mr. llayne solicited his frieiirlsto reliiiqitisli
their private opinions on this occasion. This
act ouglit to be deliberately and promptly
iiiaiizigcil. Something must be done for na-
tional feeling, To send him back to France
without imikiiig ti provision for him would
leave him to linger out his days in poverty,
and inakc him a spectacle for Europe.
Mr. Macon said he did not like the Presi-
'tlcut’s Message. Others might think for
tlieiiiselves. He conceived it a public ditty
to speak as he did. A man who risks all los-

Speaking of the resolutions laid before the
house for appropriating the proceeds ofthe
ptiblic latids to the purposes of education and
internal improvement, the editors ofthe Nat.
lut. say that for many years very few propo-
sitions ofeqo:-ii.'— Z...=portance have been presen-
tod to Coiigress, and that‘ it appears to them
that ifthe General Gov’t. ever undertake to
exercise to any extent the itiiportaiit duties
of fostering education and ’ roiiioiiug internal
improvements, it must be liy some such plati
as the one proposed.
There is a ship of the line and a frigate on
the stocks at present in Philadelphia. These
vessels are building on a plan lately adopted
by the British navy board. The steriis are
made. round, and planked in a similar manner
to the bows,whicli adds greatly‘to the strength
of the ship,and gives her a decided advantage
in battle over ships with a squared stem. The
ship ofthe line now building will be the larg-
est vessel of war in the world. She will be
rated at 1920 guns, but it is supposed she will
iuount 150. -

FROM ENGLAND.—By an arrival at N.
York on the Qith inst. London papers to the
4th Nov. are rec’d. They contain no news.
Mr. Fauntleroy was tried at the Old Bailey
on the 30th Oct. and convicted, and the tiext
day sentenced to be huno‘. He plead not guil-
ty to all the indictments, 6 in number. The
Attorney General stated the case fortlie pros-
eciition. The prisoner, he said, was a part-
ner iii the banking-house of Marsh, Stracey,
&LCo. and was taken in,as his father had been,
on account of his knowledge of banking busi-
ness. In evidence of his guilt he stated that
upon examining his premises, after his appre-
lieusioii, in a private desk was fotind a tin box
containing a paper, on which was receipted a
iiiiinber of stints in the stocltsto the auioiiiit of
:’.’.1:20,000,“-'\vitli the owuer’s names attached
to the respective sums. At the bottom of this
paper were the following words :—
“ In order to keep tip the credit 0l;0lll‘ house
I have forged powers of attorney, and I have
sold out the above sums, without the knowl-
edge of my partners. I kept tip the dividends
but made no entries. H. FAuN'i‘Li:iioY.”
P. S. “The bank began first to refuse our
acceptances, and to destroy our credit ; they
shall smart for it. May 7, 1816.”
The Attorney General thought it extraor-
dinary that tliougli this document was written
so far back no circumstance had iiidticed the
prisoner to destroy it.
Several witnesses were then called,%z. when
they had concluded Mr. F. upon being called
on, rose, and putting on his glasses, re ad with
great composure, though with strong feeling,
to the following effect.

came into the‘ concerh in. 18i_"7, he was only
22, years of age; and he found the liotisedeepé
lycriibarrassed by the large advances which
liaid bee__ir made to builders. In 1810, tile
bankruptcy of Brickwood 8: Co_. caused a loss
rtotlielioose of £170,000. In 1814, 15, and
-1,6, the firm was called upon, in consequence
of the speculations, in building, to produce
£100,000, as-the only means of averting irre-
parable losses. In l8l9‘tbe most responsible
-ofthe partners died, and the embarrassinents
of the house were increased by, being called
During all this
time the house was without resources ~e:i:cept
those fiir which he was now‘ responsible.’ ' He
was in a state of the most intolerable distress
He received no relief from
liimself,'and during the whole’ period of the
embarrassments of which he had spoken, no
inquiry had been made as to the manner in
which he had managed to sustaiti the falling
credit of the firm. Mr.‘ Slracey had quilted
this country and gone to France, leaving him
exposed to the coiiseqiiences. Having thus
detailed the necessities of the firm, he now
most solemnly declared, that all the money
which he li'ad realized was tipplied solely to the
purposes qfsitpyioi-ting‘ the’ credit of the estab-
lislinieiit. Tliisfact the books would show.——
By that alone the house was saved from bank-
ruptcy. Two ofliis partners had overdrawn
£100,000. He again couiplained ofthe cruel
statements which the press had put forth a-
gainst him. , It was well known to those who
were acquainted with his habits and character
that_, so far from being guilty ofthe crimes 8:
profligacies alleged against him,he had never
entertained an'idea‘of one oftlieni, 31.0.’ In
conclusion,'_ he expressed his confidence that
thejury would give his case an impartial and
merciful consideration. , _
Thejury, after retiring about 20 minutes,
returned,‘ and (many ofthetn mu'cli aflccted)
gave a verdict ofGuilty,ofUtterinv.
The’Judge then feelingly addressed him,
advising him to prepare for his latter end, as
there was little hope of his receiving a par-
don. The prisoner ‘raised his clasped hands
with iniich energy, and was led back to prison
mncli depres‘sed. When he was brought up
to receive his sentence he read a paper in
which he acknowledged his guilt, althoughhe
hoped it might be considered as some pallia-
tioti in a moral pcintof view, that when he
first deviated it was owing to an acute, yet he
admitted, as niistakemfeeliiig to obtain a tem-
porary relief, and not from an iiitentiou to de-
fraud. He always intended to make restitu-
tion, as soou as he was able, and it would ap-
pear froiu the batik books that he had replac-
ed and re-invested many ofthe sums mention-
ed iii the document written in 1816. The
object ofthat paper was, in the event of sitti-
den ‘death, before the whole of the, money
should be re-iiivcsted, to absolve every one
froiti suspicion btit himself. A succession of
adverse events led him on from one. false step
to another till extrication was impossible ;--
but ifcriinc could be atoiicd for by suli'eriug
his olieiices hail long been expiated by the
aiiguish he had for I6years undergone. For
liiui (lF-‘llll had no terrors; but for the sake
ofliis family.and his dear mother, he ventured
to solicit his lordship’s interposition with his
Majesty, believing that ifall the r-.ircutiistan-
ces of his case were made known to the king
pardon would not be denied him.

\Di'sastrous intelligence froin Peru.-—A let-
ter from Panama dated Oct. 20th, states that
on the 17th Scpt.a rtinst sangtiiiimy battle was
fought near Truxillo,in which Bolivar was de-
feated, in consequence ofthe treachery ofone
of his battallioiis, which in the hottest of the
battle went over to the enemy. The space
thus left open was taken advantage of by the
Spanish cavalry, who immediately charged,
and made great havoc. Bolivar made good
his retreat,keeping the enetny in check. Nev-
er did he display more firmness and heroism:
he had three horses killed under him, atid was
twice wounded. His force consisted of only
6000, while that ofthe enemy was double the
number. Two ofthe Patriot generals,Miller
and Cordova,were killed. The Spanish coni-
niander in chief, Canterac,was wounded-his
loss was tremendous. Bolivar retreated to
Guayaquil to organise his reinforceiuents,and
Canterac entered Colombia.

Vve are sorry to perceive that a spirit of bit-
ter opposition to the general goveriiinent is
beginning to manifest itselfiii Georgia and
South Carolina, and that the governors of
these states are doing all in their power to ex-
citc them to acts ofopen outrage. The priii-
cipal ground of the complaint in Georgia is
the refusal ofilic President to drive the Cher-
okees and Creeks frotn their country; and in
S. Carolina, the decision ofthe U. S. attorney
ge,,e,-at thatthe law punisliing free people of
color for entering the State, is unconstitution-
al. As if deteriniiietl on a qtiarrel, the Mis-
souri question, the tarifl’ question, and the in-
ternal improvement question are all revived,
and made the occasion of deuunciatioiis of
the general government. In these measures,
Governor Ti'ottp and governor Wilson affect
to see a fixed deterinination, on the part of
the authorities at Washington. to break down
the State sovereigritics and build on their ru-
ins a great consolidated government.
