wéamisaay, January 27, 1841.

_ \Ve have placed upon the outside ofthis days
_ paper the speech of the Hon. Mr. Huntington,
Senator in Congress from this State, on the pre-
emption bill which has, and still continues to
excite so much attention in the senate. The

tentive perusalofall otir readers. Iris clear and
forcible, and its arguments against that unjust
and mischievous measure, are conclusive and
nnanswerable. It is highly creditable to the
talents ofiis author.

Mr. H. is taking a prominent position among
the leading men in the Senate. His persever-

have .won for hitn mtich applause, while they
show him an active business man. From most
of the letter writers his course has had particular
notice and commend_ation.

Onit S'rr-:.uu:oA'rs —The conduct ofthe iridi-
viduals who have the management ofthe steam-
boats touching at this place, has of late become
matter of general remark ac reprehention. The
mutterings of discontent have been occasionally
heard for a long time, but the disappointment of
some 40 or 50 person destined for New York,

irruption on the heads oftlicse lteretofore obse-
quious suitors of public favor. These persons
had assembled on the wharf at the Old Well,
where, according to notice given the previous
day. the Nimrod waslto touch. Besides this
number of passengers, there had also collected a
large quantity offreiglit forthe same destination.
In the mean time, probably through mistake, a
carriage with perhaps half a dozen passengers,
had driven to Gregory's Point, & there awaited
the arrival of the boat from Bridgeport. \Vhen
she at length hove in sight, it was only to the
chagrin and disappointment of those at the up-
per landing. for no sooner had she taken in the
halfdozen at the point,than she was immediate-
ly headed round on her course, and the 40 or
50 wlielre left to the pleasing alternative of taking
a land conveyance to the city, or to their homes.
There is astrong feeling of dissatisfaction at this
indifference to public accommodation, together
with the exorbitant price of passage.

This indifference is supposed to arise from a
disposition to turn the current of travel from the
north which would set this way. to the rail road
via Bridgeport. \Vhat ever may be in fact the
moving principle in the case,t.his derives strength
from the inducements which ltave been held out
to travelers by that route. If this view of the
matter be not correct, this community are at a
loss for a better one, and until Capt. Brooks can
show a good and sufiicient reason for the pro-
ceeding alludcd to, he must not only remain
«op n to censure, but will have no one thank but
hitrrself if our citizens should give their patron-
age where it will meet with a better -retu rn.

WASHINGTON Motuu.i'rr.— The Wasliing-

writes from the seat of government as follows :
‘.‘I ‘am becoming the more satisfied every
day, that this great metropolis is in many
respects the most‘ corrupt city in the land ;
licentiousness, profaneness and intctnperance
Men in ‘high
places are known to be guilty of conduct
which in New England communities would
stamp them as unworthy to mingle in decent
society. The people have but little idea of
the vicious influences that iinpregn-ate the.
fountain here, from which streams are issu-
ing to wither and corrupt wherever they flow.
May the Supreme Ruler ofthe Universe ar-
rest the deadly torrent—purify the fountain
at its source, and by this means save our be-
1_o'ved‘-country from falling into ruin through
itsrottenness at the heart.” _

The Richinoud Enquire, the paper which

sires Mr, S. to remain in London, until his
successor arrives.in that city. 2
