TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 4, 1834.

Nothing has been effected during the past
week, towards settling the deposits question by
Connrress; although the people are doing their

5
utmost by resolutions, committees‘, and deputa-
tions, to bring on an immediate decision. Letter
writers from VVashingtou to the daily papers in
New York, state that, although convinced of the
ill effects of the measure, and heartily sorry that
they attempted it, the Kitchen Cabinet are un-
willing to retrace their steps, and acknowledge
their error. Rumors were in circulation for a
short time, that a compromise would be effected.

‘ butlater intelligence contradict.s tbein,-——mean-

time the distress continues—has produced heavy
failures in New York and elsewhere, and has de-
pressed stock in an unprecedented degree, and
-bids fair to convolse the community. In some
three or four of tho Legislatures of as many
states, in New York, and in some other places.
attempts have been made to vote down the dis-
tress by resolving that there was none; but 10 "0

they are to sustain a party measure, even though
it bring ruin to their own doors.

It is to be hoped .that another week will not be
permitted to pass without there being something
done to restore confidence to the business com-
munity. '

Darien, Feb. 3, 1834.

The Sentinel again ridicules the citizens of
this place for thinking and acting for Lbeinselves,
and there are some kindred spirits amongst us
who indulge the same feeling. It matters not.
Mr I-lolly cannot control the political opinions of
the inhabitants ofthis town. He always has been,
is now, and probably always will be, in a minority
in Stamford, and liisefforts in favor ofa candidate,
are certain to ensure his defeat. Let the people
decide fir themselves, Mr Holly, and do not be so
cinccited as to think you can either lead or drive
them. When you stated that you could control
such and such a number of votes in the district,
you toid,as the result proved,one of them are Can-
tcrberry stories.

By the way, if brother Holly, and his aunt
’-fabitlia and our neighbor Iicbabed, and the rest
on ‘em, have exhausted their wits, and lack sub-
iect matter for fun and frolic and ridicule, we
bould jist put a flee in their ears if they want so
long, and so little hope of its findin their brains.
Ifthey would draw a picture of a sound (not do-
zen, but) half dozen, eleventh hour democrats,
on the other side of the fence, because they have
found there was no chance for speculation on this,
sitting in Conclave for the appointment of dele-
gates to the Democratic convention, we think it
might act wonderfully on the risi bility of the
readers of the ‘Scentemall,’ as our friend the
Eciisign calls it.

Jllary Van Haun vs Silas E. Burrows.-—Tliis
Case W115 brought for an alleged seduction, and
has excited considerable interest in New York.
On the first trial the jury could not agree. A
second trial has been had and the defendant ac-
quitted, From the remarks of the N. York pa-
pers it is considered a base conspiracy for ,1,“
purpose ofcxtorting money.

CONGRESS.

In Senate IVcdnesday, Jan. 22.——T|ie
removal of the public depositcs from the
Bank of the U. States being under coiisid
eratioii, Mr Ewing rose and addressed the
Senate for about an hour in coiiclusioii.—
Mr Preston then obtained the floor.

T/iilrsrlay Jim. 23.——Mr Benton presen-
ted a letter from Bejninin Philips, stating
that he had discovered a mode of guarding
against the explosion of boilers by steam,
iiotvvillistauding the highest pressure ol
steam be used; and asking that he may be
exnmined,in orderltlint his discovery may be
put to the severest test. Referred to the
Committee on Naval afl'-airs.

Mr Mangum presented the memorial of
a numerous and respectable body of citi-
zens of the State of North Carolina, coin-
plaining of the evils occasioned by the de-
ranged state ofpeciiriiary alfairs ofthe coun-
try, which they ascribe to the removol of
the public depositcs from the Bank of the
United States, and praying for the interpo-
sition of Congress for a speedy restoration
of them to that institution.

The removal of the public depqsites be-
ing under consideration, Mr Preston ad-
dressed the Senate iii opposition to the re’-
movnl until 3 o’clock, when without coni-
ing to a conclusion, have gave way to a
motion to adjourn.

[In the course of the remarks of Mr.
Preston, the spectators in the galleries be-
gan to applaud, when the Vice-President
ordered the galleries to be cleared. VVbile
the officers were carryingthe order into ex-
ecution, a motion was made by Mr Poiti-
dexter to suspend the order; and HIIel'_a
few words from Mr \Vebster, indicating
that the Senate would support the Chair in
the Course he might pursue, the Vice-I’resi-
dent rescinded the oro'cr.]

Frirlay Jan. 2-1.—M r \Vcbstcr presented
the proceedings of a public meeting held in
the town of New Bedford, in the State of
Massncliusctts.

Mr \Vebster said, that New Bcdford had
been one ofthe most prospcroiis and fast-
growing towns in Massacliusetts. Its citi-
zens were engaged in a most useful, hardy
and ndveiiturous commerce, in which they
had met with mticb success; and, tliree
months ago, their condition was flourisliiiig
and happy; but a sudden and most exteri-
sive reverse lzas linppened to it. Thirty or
forty failures are said to have Iizippened,
and great pressure and distress pI‘P\'tlIl. I
feel it my duty, said Mr ‘W. to present these
things to the c.oiisidci'utioii ofthe Senate.

If there can be either any faith in i'ncii’s
stateineiits,oi' iffiictslie any prooftlte press-
ure, so for from diniiiiisliiiig, is iiicrensitig.
I am iiiforined by undoubted uutliority, that
in one ofonr cities, supposed to possess its
full proportioii of capital, money, for the
best security, is not to be li.'.-.d for less than
from twelve to ciglitceii pct‘ cent per nuiiiiin
nor in lui'ge sums even for that intei'c:'t; and
,h,_s\vEry wcck, Ill iiiiotlier city, one of the
p,,,.£,,,s["‘§_ipd most Il0lll'l.‘.llllIg iii the Union,
U,,;jQubted\§tfClll‘Il_)’ could be had for money
at [‘l”'(-j(-_> per cent per month.

3\Vliilc we are talking aiioiit the danger of
the l’!It)llQ_V aristocracy oftlie Bank, a state
of things is suf-fcrctl to exist which is a per-
fect carnivzil to the real inniieyed aristocra-
cy, iftlierc be any such thing in the coun-
try. Cupitnlists, bottling tip their money
for such eiiornious rates ofiiiterest, and be-
ing able to command such rates, shows
what sacrifices are made by iiidnstrious men
of small capital, to protect themselves from
absolute ruin. In mniiy pl:-ices numerous
workmen liavo been thrown out of employ,
not only in the mai'iuf:ictui'ing establish-
ments, but in the mines of some ofthe mid-
dle States. Indeed if the information of
the mornin_-,' is correct, one of these States
had sufl'oi‘ed a great diszippointmeiit in foil-
ing to receive the instnlnicnt on its loans,
according to contract, and was obliged to
take other measures for supplying the incuns
of carryiiig on its public works.

I take this occasion, Mr President, to call
again on gentlemen, who may be supposed
to know something of the purposes of the
A(IlYlIl'lIStl‘aIlOfl, to know what f/icir plan
is? I-[ave tliry any measures in readiness?
D01/icy propose any relief? 01' do they
mean to leave it to the Secretary and the
State Banks, to meet the crisis as they
may ?

I implore the sober consideration of gen-
teinen to this matter, and I deem it my
duty to repeat the injury for such reason-
able time, as that, in the absence of any
answer, it may be fairly inferred that the
Administration has no measures to pro-
pose. ~
Monday, Jan. 27.—Mr. Frelingliuysen rose to
prcsentamemorial of the citizens oi' Newark,
New Jersey, on the subject of the agitations In
the business and currency of the country.

Mr. F. said the memorial was signed by 1,341
citizens of this place, comprising the great mass
of the business population, without distinction of
party, or political feeling. dcploring the late di-
rection of the Secretary of the Treasury, to
which they ascribe the shock which the public
credit and confidence has sustained. It proclaim-
ed the voice of the hardy sons of hottest industry
in that place, who feel that a severe blow has
been struck at their interests and prosperity. He
said the inemorial was signed without distinction
of party, that it was far above party. The paper
contained the names of some of the President's
bestfriends, wlio- had adhered to him through
good and through evil report. What motive
could any Senator have to pluck a feather from
his crown? They would rather (he spoke with
confidence for liiinsclf) add another laurel to his
well earned wreath, not as a victory, bttt rather
that he should retrace a step which had proved
so calamitous to the country. Mr. F. would
wish to persuade him that such a course would
place his lame far above the reach of caluinny.
It was strange it did not occur to him, when he
was fulininaiing his anathemas against. the Bank,
tliatiheir effects never would reach it. There
sits Mr. Biddle, in the presidency of the Batik,
as calm as a summer’s morning, with his direc-
tors around him, receiving his salary, with every
thing moving on harmoniously, and has this strnlgc
reached liiiri ? No, sir. The blow has fallenon
the friends of the President and the country.
But, he thought the sympathies of every Sena-
tor would be excited, when he called to the recol-
lection of the Senate, that himself iind his col-
league had received instructions from the respec-
table Legislature of New Jersey, relative to the
course they should pursue upon this question,—
instructions, in terrris unequivocal and not to be
inibtakcn, requiring them to approve the course

of the Secretary in the removal of the deposites.

The subject was one of great interest, and be
paused to ascertain the claim and character of
those who had given IlI'..' instructions. Was IlIt'
legislature invested with the powirr to instruct
their senators here what to do? No: if St‘, we
had better change places. He felt he tro-.l deli-
"catc ground, but he was not afraid of it. Wlicrt-
the legislature pronounced the full cxpressioti ol
public sctiiimeiit, he would feel lizmsi.-If bound to
givc that cxpress:on his siipport,or to afford them
an opportunity of Ciluosjrjg some one who would
comply with their tvishcs. But wli.lc he held Ii:
one hand the iiislructinns of the state represen-
tatives, he held in the other a much deeper and
l«)lldCI' voice, that of the people. They wt-rr
perfect a.ntip0dcs to each other. VVliere then.
-hall we go? And he would say, he would go for
the people.

Mr. Tipton, agreeably to notice, introduced a
bill to enable the iiiliahitants of Michigan Terril-
tory, to frame a constitiilion, preparatory to ad-
mission into the Union, which was read and re-
fcrred to it select committee of five.

The VICE PRESIDENT here announced the spe-
cial order to be the motion of Mr. Calhoun for
the repeal of the Force Bill. Mr. Calhoun not
feeling disposed to interrupt lho debate now in
progress on the removal of the deposites, declin-
ed calling it up, but intimated that he should do
so this day two weeks.

Mr. Forsyth rose and addressed the Senate un-
til the usual hour of adjournment; when, with-
out Conciuding. he gave way to a motion for ad-
jouriiment.

[Min F. defended the President and Mr. Sec-
rotary Taney, from the several charges urged or
intimated against them by Mr. Clay, Mr. Cal-
houn, and others. His answer to Mr. VVebster’s
question, -'- \Vhat is to be done?” he made
promptly and clearly, and there seems to be a
striking accordance between his views of wliat
ought to be done, and the views of Mr. Webster,
"I voted, said Mr. Forsyth,for this Bank in 1816;
I think it has done good, and I believe it has act-
ed ill. Iwill not vote for the renewal of the
existing charter, but Island prepared to vote to-
morrow, for a National Bank, under such modi-
fications and restrictions as experience has shown
to be proper, and this I will do without reference
10 the opinions and policy of an existing or an
expected adiriiiiistratiori.”

As to the time Chose!) for the removal of the
deposites, he said it was well chosen provided the
question was settled that the charter of the Bank
was not to be renewed. He would have advised
the President to delay the removal till it was as-
certained, beyond doubt, that Congress would
not, by a constitutional majority, pass a bill rc-
clinrtcring the Bank. llut the President had
I8.l{t'I'I this fact for granted, and proceeded upon
it. Mr. F. went so far as to intimate the opiiiic-ii
that I)0l.WlIltSII‘tI]tIIllg the favorable circuin.-taiicc.
under which the expi.=riirieiit_ of the discontinu-
ance of a National _DdlIli was to be made, such
as the plciizy of specie, the stability of the State
Bnnks, the country would soon be obliged
tore-esiablisli it; and he thought it would bu
much easier to put it on a proper footing now,
than it would bi: at a In()IIlt‘I'II when we were urg-
ed by IIL‘C(‘>‘Sll_\’ and (Ii:-tress, _ Jnur. {If Com.]

A very large number of petitions were offered

intro lnction of them, that their object had his

from the calamities it has occasioned.

Jarnes G. Bennett, the person who was some
time since ejected from the editorial department
of the Peniisylvaiiian by the artifice of Amos

Evening Star.

Commissioners Q/' Liccnscs.—'I‘he Board of As-
sistants, on Moiidiiy evening, passed a resolution
without a dissenting voice, in favor of an appli-
cation to the Legislature for a law vesting the
power ofgranting tavern licenses in a Board of
Coinmissioiiers, iiistead of the Mayor and Alder-
men, as at present. This is an excellent move,
and we trust will be promptly seconded by the
other Board. Such is the connexion between
grog—shops and elections, that the Mayor and Al-
dermen are the last men in the city who ought
to have the superintendence ofliccnscs. A Board
of Commissioners, appointed by the Governor,
would be free from any such influence, and dis-
charge their duties in the CX(:_1‘ClSe of an unbias-
sed judgcment.—J. of Com.

]lIasom'c 0atIis.—Tliere was a spirited
discussion in the house this morning, says
the Boston Mercantile Journal of Monday,
on an amendment proposed to the bill on
cxtra judicial oaths, which was on its pas-
sage to a third rcadiiior. Mr. Buggies, of
Troy moved to insert in two or three pla-
ces the word masonic, and it was argued
that the Bill was intended to suppress Ma-
sonic oaths, and was caused by the ex-
citement on that subject; and therefore it
would be proper to use the most explicit
terms. It was contended, on the other
hand, that the phruscology of the bill cov-
ered the wliolo ground; and that it was
no more proper to nainie that particular
class; all being equally included. The

amcndnaciit was finally rejected by one
majoi'ity—l7l in the atlirmativc,- 172 in the
negative.

A Qualifica{ion.—A merchant lately ad-

:he inside of the hat is as black as the outside, and
leaves the nap free and very bright; likewise, the
but will be more durable and strong, and less liable
to break than the former way, as the longer the hat
reinnins in the dye, the more liable it is to rot.

There is a great convenience in having clean
blocks to put the hats upon while napping, which
will enable the hlllllufaclurcl‘ to keep his kettles
clean, and have better work made. '

Mr. Pike has appointed \'Villiam Green, of the
Town of \Vilton, sole Agent for the United States,
who is also brill‘ owner of the-,l’atcnt Right, and will
eceive any comn.unication the same as the Patcntce.
Any one wishing to avail liiinsclf of the Right,
or wishing the model, can have it by writing to me,
or my Agent, at \ViIton. ‘

The Block or Frame is constructed in the follow-
ing way, namely, two roniid pieces cut to the size
of the hat, perforated with holes to admit air, eight
up and down slats halved into the head, and tip pieces
fastened with copper nails; the centre-piece is of
a suflicient size to admit of an inch hole to go on a
pin of the same size in the wheel; the centre.pioce
is fastened to the tip and head pieces with copper-
nails.

N. B. Manufacturers are hereby notified that the
Rights will be sold cheap, and Maiiufacttirers are
forbid using the Block without procuring the right
or consent of the Patentee, or his Agent.
