THE LATE CONGRESS.

The alilecorrespotttlentof the 1.l.l)l€’Ii'?a7l (R.
M. T. II.)-in-siinimiiig up the history of this
Congress writes :- t

!The Whig congress is remarkable for
many peculiar circumstances, distinct and
apart from politic..l L'h5ll'IlCl.F?l'i$!.‘lGS or acts.
It has been .in actua.l session more t-ha-n
one year: an.-tl a q,l1flIlif‘l’,. being now in the F6
mont'l‘i of its ltegisltit-i've labors. No other

"Congress ever sat t2 months. This has sat
more months, more weeks, more days and
more hours than any other since the begin-
ning ofthe Government. It has made more
,speec_hes, done more business, received more
petitions, examined more cases, made more
reports, printed more documents, acted on
more resolutions, pass:-d more private hills.
rejected more private bills, passed more pub_-
lic bills itito acts and laws, rejected more
public bills, had more bills vetoed, effected
more and greater retrenchmiznts, caused
more reforms in the parliamentary rules,
lost more members by resignation, lost more
by death than any previous Congress. Thir-
teen have died. Seven have losttheir wives
by death duringthis Congress. Nine have
maxrried since their election. Twelve or
more have lost their children by death dur-
ing that time. Seven Senators and 12 Rep-
resentatives have resigned. Of the twelve
Representatives so resigning, three have
been reelected to the same._seats in this same
Congress. Several have been very ill and
near to death. One his had his leg broken.
One [ML Sprigg of Ky] has had his ear bit
off in a fight. Tnree have been falsely re-
ported as dead; and published notices to that
effect have been generally believed through
out the country for a tiiite.

Of the iitore distinguished men in this
Twenty--seventh Congress. one has been
President and one Vice President ofthe Uni-
ted States; two have been Secretaries ofState
one Secretary of the Treasury, one Secreta-
ry of VVar. oiie Secretary of the Navy. one
Post Master General. two Attorneys Gener-

"oral, four Ministers Plenipotentiary, two

' ernors of States and Territories.

Speakers of former Houses of Representa-
tives, fifteen Governors an] Lieutenant Gov-
Six more

C it loses in this.

Governors of States. Three have been un-
successful candidates for the Presidency.-
Two others have in former periods been the
candidates of their party for the Vice Presi-
dency ofthe United States.

Of the Members oftlio two I-lousrs of this
Congress. three were members of Congress
more than forty years ago. Others have
been Members for more than twenty years
in unbroken succession. Seveval others were
members tnore than twenty years ago. Three
are more than seventy years old. One is
only tewenty-eight.

Of those who have been mcinbeis of this
Congress and have been eminent in the pub
lic service. and who will not be members of
the next, I need only naino Clay, Calhoun,
Preston, Sergeant, Granger. Fillmore. Sal-
tonstall and Marrow, (among the living.)
Southard, Lewis, VVilliams and Lawrence,
(among the dead.)—to show that the next
Congress cannot replace to the country what
I might lengthen this list
by the addition of many faithful, devoted, dis-
tinguisbed, honored and beloved patriots.
who now leave the public service, some for
a brief interval no doubt, buttoo many forev-
er. The aggregate of fame. stability, fideli-
ty and worth which this congress has exhib-
iied to the country, has been rarely equalled
--never excelled.

But ofthose incidental and accidental pe-
culiarities and distinctions of this Congress,
the various circumstances above. detailed
from :1 memory especially inclined to treas-
ure singular f.icts and t:oincidcnc.es——may
but serve for the entertainment of the idle
curious, For graver characteristics. higher
distinctions, more active virtues, and posi
,tive results—--forni the more solid l1'lC|llO_l"lfll
,ofthis Congress and its lasting claim to lithe
respect and gratitude ofthis Nation.

This Whig Congress has s:itfowr/iundred
.6mrlji_ft7/ days —has passed more titan four
ltundmed bills into Acts. (nearly- twice as
many -as any previous Congress.) made more
than two t‘b.ous/.z.nd Reports, occupying more
than twenty/~_/ii:c t/iousaiid printed pages, and
circulated several hundred thousand copies
,of valuable documents among the people for
heir information on public affairs.”

 

9 EATER FRGNI EUROPE.

The steamship Columbia arrived at Boston
on Monday morning the 20th, having left
Liverpool on the 4th of M-irch. She brings
London papers ofthe 31 and Liverpool dates
of the day of sailng. 

Tb.er.e is little intelligence of interest.

_ Sir Charles Metcalfe and his suite came
out in ;he Columbia, to succeed Sir Charles

.Bagot as Governor General of Canada.

An allusion was made in Parliament to
the proposed action of ottr Senate upon the
subjec,-,t of the-occupation ofOregon; and Sir
Robert Peel assured an inquiring.‘ member
that the violent speech of Mr. McRoberts
would not probably disturb the harmonious
relations ofthe two Nations, anl caused a_
burst of laughter by saying that he was sat-.
isfied that the feeling which existed would

not occasion any fall of American Funds.

The creditors who have advanced their

money to tlicflrepudiating States in the Union
have addressed a strong memorial on the
'subject to Mr. Everett, the American Minis-
ter in London, with a request that it may be
forwarded to the President, for presentation
to Congress, and to the different State Leg-
islatures. ‘

The most striking passage relates to the
straightened pecuniary circumstances of the
majority ofthe sufferers, which we subjoio.

.Every trite American, every honest and
right-hearted man must desire to s ‘e so foul
.a stain wiped from the escutcheon of his
.couritry, The memorial says:

“An impression. we understand. prevails
very generally amongst your people. that

measure men of large fortunes, to tvliom a
failure. in their securities can occasion but

furnish no ground for any departitre from
the‘-’~ordin;iry obligations of good faith. In’

Itwas stated by Sir Robert Peel in the
"House. that the estimates for the army and
navy for the year would be £850,000 below
those of last year, in consequence of the
peace witli_China and the Washington trea-

I Captain Ross’ expedition to the South Pole
is expected home in May. Only four men
have been lost during the voyage. Captain
Ross has penetrated the Antartic Circle to

Mr. Thomas Pottingcr. the brother ofSir
Henry Pottinger, has been selected by the
Government for the chief office as resident
at Hong Kong, and is to take his departure
forthwith. '

A letter from Brest states that the fine
steam iiigates, which are intended ;= for {the
transatlantic navigation between Fiance and
the United States. are ready for sea, and will
commence service in the spring.

By another blast at the Dover Cliff, in
which 7.000 lbs. powder were ignited by
means ofthe voltaic battery, 50,000 cubic
yards ofchalk were dislodged.

A serious riot occurred in Geneva on
the l8th, in which the Grand Council were
attacked. and several lives lost.

Sir Francis Bond Head, it is said. is to be
appointed Governor ofthe Cape of Good

her receipts for the past year have. been only
$30,830 about $3,000 less than those for
last year. The new iron steamer, Great-
Britain is in a very forward state. ’

FACTS TO BE CONSIDERED BY THE
PEOPLE.
1. Under the Administration of Mr. Van
Buren the expenditures of the general gov-
ernment were $37,150,} 16 in a single year.

2. All the appropriations for the present

rear, under a Whig administration, do not
exceed $18,000,000.
3. By the economy. retrenchment and rig-
id accountability introduced by the Whigs
into all the departments of the governmnt.
the public expenditures have been reduced
one half.

4. Under the administration of Mr. Van
Buren, the U. S. marshal of the State of
Missis.-ippi received $52,000 for fees and
emoluments in one. year--—the Collector and
District Attorney in New York, each from
$30,000 to $40,000, and other officers in
proportion.

5. Under a Whig administration. none of
these officers can, under any circumstances,
receive ntore than $5,000 a year for his ser-
vices. being required by latv to paythe over-
plus into the Treasury.

6. Under Mr. Van Buren’s adniinislration
many useless offices were created and iiit-
mcnse sums of public money squandered
among political favorites in the form ofextra
pay and extra allowances.

7. Under a Whig administration these
useless offices have been abolished and “ex-
tra pay" and "extra allowances” to officers
of government been prohibited bylaw.

8. The Florida war was protracted during
the whole of Mr. Van Buren’s administra-
tion at an expence to the country of§B30,000-
000.

9. Under a Whig administration the Flor-
ida war was brought to a speedy termina-
tion and this drain upon the Treasury was
stopped.

10. Mr. Van Buren left our foreign rela-
tions in an unsettled, angry and threatning
condition, and a wa_r with England hanging
over our prospects.

11. Under a whig administration our difi-
culties with England have been honorably
aujusted and ti beneficial treaty ratified by
which both countries have been saved from
the horrors of war and lasting peace estab.
fished between them.

12. Under a whig administration that
great and vital measure the tariff Bill, has
been passed. at once supplying the wants of
the treasury, stopping the foreign drain
which was exhausting the life blood of the
country, and giving protection to labor in all
its various branchrs.

13- Every ivhig Member of Congress
from New England voted for the tariff.

I4. Every loco foco Representative in
Congress from New England but one.(Par-
menter of Mass.) voted against the tariff bill,

I5. Our Whig Senator in Congress. Mr.
Huntington, voted for the tariff.

I6. Our Loco Senator, Perry Smith voted
against the tariff bill.

I7. The VVhias avow their readiness to
stand by the tariffand give the country a
permanent system of protection.

18. The locos threaten to throw the
whole question open again, either by repeal-
ing the tarifl bill, or so modifying it and al-
tering itas will render the protection to
northern labor inadequate.

19. John C. Calhoun, the great free trade
ntillifier is now a prominent candidate ofthe
locofoco party for the Presidency, and is to
receive the support oftha-t party, if he gets
the nomination of the national Convention.

20. The ruin and distress of the last few
years are the bitter fruits of locofocoisni,and
are precisely what the Whigs predicted
would follow from reckless and wicked leg-
isl:-ttion.

2|. When the ‘Whigs took posessjon of
the government the treasury was bankrupt,
business prostrated. the currency deranged,
and our whole system tottering to its fall.

22. Our only hope is in VVliig principles
these alone can restore order, revive credit
encourage industry and provide a safe and
convenient currency.

Let every reflecting man, lcoking as well
to the past as to the future. consider his obli-
gations to sustain VVhig principles.

Good Fees.—-We find it stated in the
United States Gazette that the Judge Advo-
catt-’s feis, in the trial of i\'lackrnz_ie, are ten
dollars per diem, and ten dollars for every
fifteen pages of I'c~cord, oneliund red and fifty
words make a page. That fully accoun's

.vis.ed for the whole country.

Roger S." Baldwin aiiiid Chauncey
F. Cleveland.

Is there a wliig in the Suite of Connecti-
cut who is not sensible of the difference
between these two men? Mr. Baldwin is a
lawyer of high order of talent : - without a
superior in the State. ,Gov.-Cleveland too,
is a lawyer, but in talents anc_l-legal acquire-
merits, it would be a stretch of liberality to
rank him as high -as second rate. He is in
truth, very indifferent in his profession:
while Mr. Baldwin has by- the force of his
talent and industry raised himself to the
highest rank. In this respect the-iitlie whig
camlitlate has decidedly the advantage. If
we examine the official conduct of Gov.
Clevclantl. We shall find in it nothing to raise
him in public estimation. His course on the
Rhode Island question was weak, vacilla-
ting and conteiiiptable, in the extreme. At
first he decided to comply with the requisi-
tion of Gov. King, but to prove that he blurt-
dered in the right course, front pure acci-
dent. he very soon took the other side of
the question, and when he was at last deci-
dedly in the wrong, he stuck to it. Wliata
spectacle the State of Connecticut then pre-
sented! the opinions of her chirfmagistrate
veering like a weather vane with every
change of the wind——to day acltnoivledging
the authority of Gov. King—to-it-orrow of
Dorr! VVho can have any respect for the
opinions of such a man? In his final letter
to Gov. King. iit which he at last refuses to
acknowledge his authority, and pleads the
cause of Dorr, he attempts to explain his
change of opinion, and intimates that when
he took the other side of the question he had
not sufficirntly considered the subject. If
this was so, the Governor of Connecticut
was probably the only man of communio-
telligence in the State, who had not fully
examined the subjectanrl made up his mind.
But Governor Cleveland wanted further
time—and having given his opinion one
way. veered about when the word of com-
mand came from a higher authority. and
was willing to make himself contemptible.
is such a man fit to hold the office of Gov-
ernor of Connecticut ?

But this is not all. The (liffivulties in
Rhode Island were encouraged and format-
ed by Gov. Cit-veliitid. Revolution and
bloodshed were in his opinion the proper
means of bringing about changes, wliich
were peaceably offered and refused-—and
which have since been pcaceable and legally
carried into effect. It was not a dispute
about the right of suffrage; the manner in
which it should be extended, was the only
question. Gov. Cleveland upheld the insur-
rection which threatened to deluge the fields
of Rhode Island in human blood——but which
through the cowardice of those engaged in
it terminated in their (lisgractful fligl'it.——
Now is the time for the people of Connecti-
cut to express their opinion of his conduct.

Earthquake in New York.—\Vc have un-
dotibted evidence that the eaitliqualie ofFeb.
8th which occasioned so dreadful a destruc-
tion oflife and property in the West Indies,
was distinctly felt in this city. Three; per-
sons who were together in the upper -an 0.
it high building. engaged in at sedentary em-
ployment, observed their tables to shake,
and one oftheiii felta sensation similar to
sea sickness. They mutually expressed sur-
prise at what they saw and felt, and could in
no other way account forit btit by attributitig
it to the shock of an eartliquake. One of
them noted the date on the vial! of the room,
—and allowing, for difference of longitude,
it is found to coincide. with the date of the
earthquake in the West Indies, Gouda-
lope, which appears to have been the focus
of the explosion, is situated in lat. If} to I7;
consequently,the concussion was felt through
24 degrees of latitiidc in this direction. and
probably as many in the opposite, inakingari
aggregate of 48°, or more than one eighth
of the circumference of the globe. How
trcinenduous must have been the convulsion
which could make itself felt over so vast an
extent of the earth’s surface l—Jaur. Com.

Alrocious III-u'rder.—Last night while Mr.
Charles S, COlllCS. was on his way from the
Carlton House to his residence in Lotnard
street. a person dressed in female apparrel
came up close to him and fired a pistol at
hiin,the ball from which struck him on the
side of his head, passed obliquely along it
and came out near the temple. The assas.-
sin immediately fled, and Mr. Corlies was
taken to the Carlton House where he expir-
ed shortly after.

T3/lerism in New York.-\’Ve have to
announce the utter explosion, the death and
burial of the Tyler party in this city. The
fatal meeting of the Central Committee over
which Major Noah—(ivho has acted as
General, Troop and Trumpeter of this di-
vision" ofthe grand Army/)—hzis hitherto

resided; was held last evening at Military
Hall in the Bowery. Mr. James H. Ray-
mond offered a l'(-'S0ll1liOn that the Commit-
tee should throw itself into the arms of their
‘Democratic brethren,’ the iuenibt-is going
into their respective. wards to strive ii. con
junction with the loco focus to promote. the
interests of lohn Tyler, with an eye to his
nomination in the Loco loco national con-
vention! This. it will be re-mcmberetl, is
precisely the plan adopted in Philadelphia-—-
as detailed by our cori'espond.ent; and we

rc,suni,e it is part of the grand scheme de-
The resolution
was passed-—l\’lr. Raymond assuring several
inquiring members that they mie ht rest as-
sured ofa c.ordi_al reception from the ‘Demo-
cratic Republicansl’ After this a resolu-
tion, likewise offered by Mr. Raymond, that
tlit-Com niitiee a.1ljoumsi7i.e.dic, was PASSED ;
and thus fades into utter nothingness the
agonized Tyler party in thecity of New
York !—-Tribmic.

T/re llformoris Re-'ml';’d.-— In the Illinois
Legislature on the 27th iilt tlie Senate re.-
pealed the law -crcatitig the N-auvoo Legion
military corps. They also repealed the
cliartcrofthe Mormon City ofNau-.voo. The
vote in favor ofthe latter was 25:‘. to li.

Judge Bezts of the U. S. Circuit Court,
instructed the Grand Jury on Monday (of
last week) that they had -‘no authority to
enquire into the homicide charged to have
been committetl on board the U. S. Br-lg

 

Soincrs.’

 

Rlmde Isla.nd.—The late Dorrite move-
ment in that State, lips cost the -State up-
wards of ninety thousand dollars! which.
sum is to be t-aken from the hard earnings.
of the farmers,manufacturers and laborers
ofthe State, by way of dire.ct_/ taxation.—
Chauncey F. Cleveland fostered and en.
couraged the spirit ofthese proceedings. Is
such a man [it to be entrusted with power to
do evil for another year it &c.

Yo-mtg Merz;er.—The Grand Jury of
Gloucester county, N. J. have found a true
bill against him for the murder of Heberton.
Thetrial is to commeiic'e on Tuesday after-
noon the 28ih inst. On being arraigned,
Mercer pleaded ‘not guilty.’

The Newark Advertiser says:

‘Mercer appears calm and self-posessed,
and has a rooiu as comfortably provided as
any chamber need be, with furniture, books.
&c.. and has" withall the liberty of the Jail
hall. His aspect and manners speak well
for his domestic training. and his gallant old
father. who was wounded at the battle of
Tripoli. while a midshipman. is in attend-
ance. Thc. mother is said to be too much
jndisposeel to visit him.’

Dialogue between a. Loco Foca farmer and a.
Whig Ma-n'ufactu7'cr, on t/ze TarifLaw.

Farmer. I don’t see that the late Tariff
law affects my business of raising Agriciil-
tural products front my farm. as you say it
does~ perhaps you cnii yet convince me.

Jlfariufacluc-'e‘r.——Don't see it; " Why it is
as plain as the nose on your face.” Sup-
pose no tariff law had been passed; suppose
that the locofoco doctrines of free trade had
prevailed, and consequently my factory in
this town had been closed, where would you
have found as good a customer for your stir-
pltis products, as I have been?

Fm‘. Found a customer? could I not
have sold them to the merchant in the ci.ics
—to be sent to New York.

Man. That is possible; biitat what price.
pray compared to what you have her- tofore
received from me on the spot’! Should the far-
mers cease to fiiid a market at home; facto-
ries all be closed; the workmen who now
consume your products, all be discliarged. 5?.
they compelled to raise corn aitd potatoes
themselves, would not the price ofthe articles
you raise, be greatly reduced in consequence
of the great quantities that would be sent to
New York?

Far. \/Vell really--I had not tltouglit of
the matter in this light liefore; it would
have that effect would’iit it?

lltfan. Certiiiiily it would. If every man

5 was a farmer. if every man raised his own

articles of food, where would be the purchas-
ers—b- sides the closing tip of my manufac-
tory in this toivn, would not only deprive you
of a market at home. but greatly increase
your expenses of tlisposing of what you had
to sell. You woiiltl be under the necessity
oftranspotting it a long distance; this would
cause the loss of your time. which might be
occupied profitably in improving your l.-irm_
the use of your horse and wagon, and the
consequent wear and tear of them, and unless
you went often. your btitter. eggs, &c. which
you now sell to me and my workiiteii in it
fresh state, and at high prices. ivoiild be-
come stale, and ofiniich less value, and then
again. if yoti had only it small amount of
these things, beyond \‘.’l1tti. you required for
the use of your family, you could hardly
afford to spend one or me days to carry
them to ntaiket at all,

Far. \Vell. your views of the case are
certainly new to me. I never had calculated
the effects ofthis tariff law before.

.Ma.n. It is no great wonder that you
hail not seen it, for "none are so blind as
those that woii’ts-“ac.” You might have seen
it. if you only would think for yourself, and
so would every other former, but so long as
they pin their faith on the loco foco Free
Trade newspapers, and follow their litimbug
notions, they may expect to remain in dark-
ness, not only in respect to the tariff law. httt
all other laws, that concern this section of
the cotititry.

Far. But stop: now I think of it are
you right when you say our papers don’t
favor a tariff law’! I believe they do say
they are willing to have an incidental tariff.

film». It-cidental ltlrlff-—yPS some of
them do favor an incidental tariff; but glet
me tell you my friend. that kind ofa Tariff.
is a iariffto “catch gulls ;” what you and I
want isa sound discriminating tariff one
that would afford protection, that will pro-
tect me and my workmen against foreign
competition, to such an extent that -we can
live by it, that will enable us to buy your
produce and pay for it, This is what I
mean by a protective tariff.

Far. But \\ by won’t an incidental tariff
law do this ?
Man. Fora very plain reason. Art in.-

cidcntal tariff has no reference to the en
couragement and protection of labor-; it is
onlv. in the first instance a tariff for reve-
nueand taxes articles that our merchants
iriiport, that we don’t want taxed. because
we don’t make theiu in'this country; but
what we want, is to have the revenue col-
lected from a tax on those goods that
are imported front abroad that are also made
in this country; and then my factory will be

kept going, my workmen will find constant

employment, and you can continue to sell
us the products of your farm at good prices.

Far. I ntust frankly confess this is new
l.Oilflt«E', and I sltould be glad to stay longer.
but I cannot now, I will see you again-
[will only say before we separate that I
sliall.not l]t‘l't‘afiGl‘, vote for any member of
Congress, that is not in favor of a sound dis-
criminating-.tariff law—this free tradetheory
