The hour is approaching when Con gress will be under the necessity of some kind cf interference, and, though we entertain the molt exalted ideas of the justice and modera tion of that illuftrioos body, we Hill believe they will not quietly* fuffer the revenue to be defeated by the iniquitous condud of a Hate which they can so easily controul. The President has been iudifpofed with a flight fever for a few days past ; but the pub lic-anxiety may be abated, by the ajfurance that he is now much better. 3c is reported that, in consequence of a skirmish having taken place between the crew of an American boat trading down the river Miffilippi, and a party of Spanilh soldiers, the Governor of Mew Orleans has represent ed the affair to the Spanilh Ambalfador at New-York, requeuing him to lay it before Congress.

Some of them have fettled at Tioga, where there appear* to be appearances of a town and improvements of the werteru extremity of the ftaie. We learn further, that the inhabitants of Luzeiue in the neighbourhood of Wyoming, are peaceable and obedient to government; and that from the late rapid incieafe of pro duce of all kinds on the Sufquchauna, there is reason to believe the lands on that river wilt focn become a moll valuable addition to the commercial tefources of the city of Philadel phia.

The extraordinary cures performed by the Rrfverend Mr. William Stoy, minister of the German congregation of this town, on per-, sons bit by mad dogs, will no doubt remove your anxiety for the recovery of your friend.
