A POKj’^ R > oaslu;r - BY EXPRESS MAIL 1 ’ t [PHOM OIJH COHUESPONIIENT.] WASHINGTON, May 11, 1838 In Ibe House to day, after the journal was read, Mr GRAVES rose, and referring to the fact that immense numbers of the report of the majority of the Duel Committee had been circu lated throughout the country under the frank of members of Congress, asked that the House 1 should order 20,000 additional copies of the s evidence and journal to be printed. Mr FAIRFIELD, of Maine, to whom the j country is indebted for originating these dis- [ graceful proceedings, in which the House has v spent several weeks, at a lime when the people a are looking anxiously to Congress for some ' great and substantial measure of relief, and when 1 tho Government is bankrupt,—new .proposed a to amend the motion by including the printing [ of twenty thousand additional copies of the 1 report. Mr. CAMPBELL, of S C., remons'.raled with >j spirit and force against the injustice of sending t out a printed argument against Mr Graves and 1 his Iricnds after the House had determined to abandon the trial. Mr PARKER, of N Y., one of the trainbands, j fcatd lire subject had only been laid on the table. Phis wretched pretence produced no feeling but 1 that of derision at its shallowness. J Father and his associates know that the sub. j ject has been consigned to “the tomb of the c Capulcts,” never to rise again. 1 Mr. HOPKINS, of Va., moved to lay both | the motion to print and the amendment on the table ; it was rejected by p. large majority. Mr MASON, of Ohio, then rose and opposed J tho amendment, on tho ground that it is partial, | unfair, and does manifest injustice to the parties . whom it undertakes to accuse. He examined this miserable tissue of misrepresentation with J gieat acumen, and exposed several instances of its gross and flagrant injustice. The parly were s exceedingly restive under these attacks; several of ] them slatted up, one after another, and interrupted f him with idle and vexatious calls to order. But , he went on lashing them with severity, until the £ morning hour expired! when the Speaker went ] into the business of calling on the different S'.an- ( ding Committees for reports. ’ The Committee of commerce reported the an- ‘ nual Harbor Appropriation Bill. j Mr. BRONSON from the Committee on Ter. 1 ritorics reported a resolution for setting apart Tues 1 day and Wednesday next, for territorial business. I Mr. CAMBRELING protested against any I i special orders, in tho present condition of the pub- 1 ! lie business. The resolution was rejected. The Committee on territories reported hills for ' j the creation of two New Stales—one to enable 1 the people of East Wisconsin: and the other to 1 j enable the people of Florida, to form a consliiu- ' j lion and Slate Government; and providing for the 1 admission of such Stales into the Union. They were referred to tho Committee "of the whole. I After sonic mote reports of a miscellaneous 1 character, the House, on motion of Mr, CAM- ‘ BKELING, resolved jitsnlf into Committee of 5 the Whole, Mr INGHAM oTCoon. in the Chair,. 1 and look up the bill authorizing the reissue of C the Treasury notes in the place 0 f those which J have been returned and cancelled. S Mr. CAMBRELINO then rose; and urged the necessity of the measure, in order to relieve *■ (he Treasury, and indulged in much glorification s ol the Administration for bringing about the re sumption of specie payments! -- Mr. CUSHING of Mass, replied in a speech is of great spirit and demonstrated most clearly that S the Government had no right to issue these notes, *' and that the measure was highly inexpedient. ll Mr THOMPSON, of South Carolina, then y took the floor, and made a masterly speech in a opposition to the measure on grounds of expedi. 8 cncy ami the constitution. The Committee rose, before lie had closed his remarks, and the House adjourned. Ir, the .Senate a number of memorials wort presented by Messrs. Pierce, Morris, Niles, Davis and Southard, all remonstrating against the exe cution of the Treaty of New Echota with the Cherokee Indians. All were laid on the table and ordered to be printed. Mr. HIVES, on leave, introduced a Dill for the re-organization of the United Slates Marine Corps : which was read, and referred to the Committee on Naval Affairs. Mr.MOL fON of E a ., introduced, on leave, a bill to provide for the warehousing of goods im - ported, and the duties on them from May 10th 1837 lo May lOlli 183 d. Mr.] LESION, ol S C. called up a joint res, olution directing tiro Postmaster General to set, lie tire claims ot Hard and Longstreet. Air. P. staled that one of the claimants had lost his all by the recent lire at Charleston, while absent on the business of urging his claims. Ho made an earnest appeal to the Senate in behalf of this suf serer; and the resolution was immediately adopted vem-coH. The Senate then proceeded to the considera tion of the Dill providing for the extension of the charters of the Danks of the District of Colum bia; and was engaged with it until the end of the sitting CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. a. in* Tuesday Morning, May 15, OCj" The author of“A Citizen of Ward No. 2” will please send in his name. This must ho done to secure publication. On Sunday last between four tnd five hun dred United Stales Troops passed through this place, under the command of Col. Crane, on their way to the 1 Cherokee country. Part of them arrived here in a steam boat from Savannah and part on the Hail Hoad from Charleston. The steam packet Neptuwm made her last (rip from Charleston to New York in sixty one hours, being the shortest passage on record.

X Hut injustice arises from a perversion 0 f K J'me facts, and false statement of others.— Wc c*b l ‘ ct '* lu following paragraphs from the article allu. !t which contain tiro pith and essence of the o'j* ' ir S CB against Gov, G. “\V e have spoken' littleness of mind; now for the proof of it.' * 3 usu al for die Dank Heporls to be printed in i;ei ' u ' n papers. They should bo published in those o.* the largest cir culation. Gov Schley,jwhen he office made no alteration in the list of p.V crs ' v '*'ch published these reports—the leading Sia'P lights papers had the privilege of publishing the‘ m ai well as the Union papers. Gov Schley iP-’o above party bias, and sent the information re quired lo the public through the best channels. What has Gov Gilmer done? He lias restricted the publication to his own pet pa; cts, barely admitting the Georgian and Constitutionalist to copy them,just to keep up a semblance of fair play. He has deprived the loading Union pa pers of the profit of publishing those documents —even the Standard of Union, the Proprietor of which is the State Printer, has been excluded. The Editor of that Paper, however, with his usual imlepcncence, has determined to print them in defiance of the royal ordonance of George R. Gilmer, and look for remuneration to ihe Legislature. That Dody will do justice, we believe; and Mr. Gilmer will be made to appear just as small as he should be in the matter. “Wq arc ourselves amongst the proscribed. Wediave the satisfaction, however, of knowing that if Governor Gilmer, can deprive us of a lit tle money, ho cannot restrict for a moment our freedom es thought, or of speech; and while we can use these faculties we shall not desist from denouncing the poor, pitiful motives that must have actuated that person in his war on the Un ion press of the State.” The Hank Reports arc ordered by law to be published in such papers as the Governor may select for that purpose. For this they are paid by the Slate at advertisement rates. Gov.Lumpkin in every instance selected the papers of bis own party, with, wc believe, but a single exception. Gov. Schley continued the practice. During the year 1837, Ihe Bank Reports were published by authority in the following Union papers, viz- Federal Union, Standard of Union, Macon Tele graph, Columbus Sentinel, Athens Banner, Mi nor’s Recorder, Southern Spy, Savannah Geor gian, and Darien Telegraph ! The only State Rights paper into which they were ordered by Gov. Schley was the Southern Recorder ! It will thus be seen that although Gov. Schley •‘made no alteration in the list of papers which published these reporls,” as Ihe Telegraph says, yet he continued the proscriptive party policy of his predecessor ! It will be seen by the above list that they were published in nine Union pa pers and in but one of the Stale Right’s party ! Governor Gilmer has ordered them into the fol lowing papers, viz; Southern Recorder, Georgia Journal; Federal Union , Macon Messenger, Co lumbus Enquirer, Athens Whig, Chronicle & Sentinel, Const lutionatisl, Savannah Republi can ami Savannah Georgian ; making tea pa - pers in all, of which three ate of the Union parly. We agree with the Telegraph that these Re ports should be published in those papers having the most extensive circulation. Look at the list of those in which they were published liy Gov Schley, and the reader will discover that some of them arc the very smallest in circulation in the State. The Darien Telegraph, Athens Banner, Miner’s Recorder and Southern Spy all put to gether do not circulate as many papers by near-, ly one thousand as the Chronicle & Sentinel. One ol them, the Miner’s Recorder was actually sustained by the money received, and perished for want of support so soon as the Treasury pap was taken from it by the defeat of Gov. Schley. It is true as the Telegraph says, that tbe leading Stale Right’s papers had the “ privilege ” of pub lishing these lepons; but it was u privilege for the exercise of which they got no pay from the Stale, while such establishments as the Telegraph md Miner’s Recorder derived from it a profit, ;rcatcr than from their whole advertising patron ’ We will thank the Editor oi the .0 1 clcgraph to Bay l.ow much he received from t! 10 SMate for this service last year. As our paper has ea circulation six or seven times as large as the 3, J olograph, and is therefore capable of doing six limes us much good by the publication of these c reports, wo should like to know how to make out e our bill against the Slate. I.i every instance where Gov. Gilmer has made -r a discrimination he has selected the paper having c >hc largest circulation. As to the determination 0 of the Standard of Union to demand pay of ih„ Legislature, we can only laugh at the stupidity a which lends the “Book maker” to suppose that he is entitled as a mailer of right to make the 1 Slate pay lor whatever he chooses to print. e have placed this matter in its true light, ‘ and do not hesitate in believing that the people’ ' ol lhe S,ate w ‘i | determine correctly, which Gov , ernor has exhibited the greatest degree of liberal 1 ity m the distribution of this branch of his patro i nage. From Florida. , Jlle Gharlesten Mercury of yesterday says. “M o learn from a passenger in the U. S. Steamer Poinsett, arrived hero yesterday, from Black Creek, that about 350 Indians had gone in to Gen Taylor’s camp, with Alligator and Coacooche at' their head. Five companies of the 4th Regiment 1 U. S. Artillery, arrived at Savannah on Saturday last, and proceeded immediately on their way to the Cherokee Coumry. Two Companies left tho day before, and two more would leave in a few days’” Wo learn Irom the Pensacola~Gazctte that Capt. Mervinc has been “relieved” from hi, com mand of the sloop of war Natchez, and that Cap. lain Page has taken his place. The Yoik, Pa. papers mention that a new batch of counterfeit notes of the York Borough Uoan have made their appearance. They are or the denominations of 50 cents, $l, $ 2 , and $3. Upwards of two hundred passengers sailed from New \ ork for England during the first week of / the present month. V The following reply to the query of “E” in our paper some days ago'was put in typo without examination, and wo have concluded to let it pass with the remark that in our humble judgment the answer is a very unsatisfactory one indeed. 1 he author W£ vhink knows but little about Enj-. Grammar, or he never would call the perso. nal pronoun “he,” a noun! COMMUNICATED. Answer to the Cominication of “12.” “E.” I suppose, is one of the “disciples” of Mr Kirkham from his address. “E.” is not aware that lie is studying MrMurray at last, he there fore must make no game of that gentleman, for without Murray’s Grammer, I can give him a sentence that he cannot analyze to save his life, but this has nothing to do with tho question.— 1 should say that “what has become of him, i» the correct way of rendering the sentence: tho sentence “what is become of him,” tha verb would be passive, whereas it ought to be active- the question—what havo become of him I Ho . l ‘ ss S one t 0 Now York. Tho reason lb* verb be active, is, because “A verb Active expressed an act *on of course. In the sentence “what is bv' C(,mc °f him,” tho verb would be pas sive, and u lerli passive expresses a passion or a suffering, or tho receiving of an action, &c. It is plain that bis going’ New Y'ork expresses nei. thcr action, passion, nor suffering, then the sen tence rendered correctly should read thus : what hus become &c. Now I will analyze the word “what.” “What lias become of him! Ho has gone, Ac What is a relative pronoun, of th c Interrogative kind and relates to its subsequent noun “be” which is the answer to the question according to a note in Etymology, which says . “The lelative pronoun when used, Interrogative ly relates to a word or phrase which is not ante cedenl but subsequent to thc relative.” I can apply another nolo : thc Ist note under rule the f 6th, which says: “When the relative pronoun is of thc interrogative kind, thc noun or pronoun containing the answer must bo in thc same case as that which contains the question.” MURRAY. [foii the chronicle and sentinel.] Mr. Eiiitou —Sir, As there appear to be strange infatuations with some people, I think it would not be amiss to lake some little notice of a singular occuncnce in this county, and in a family that is respectable and somewhat pleas antly situated. In thc family there is a small girl about ten years of age, and having been for soma little time confined to the house with the whoopingcough.she look an idoa to ride out on horse back with one of her brothers. She did so, and on returning and being taken fiora tho horse she was alcly thrown into spasms and called for her horsc ( he was brought and so soon as she was placed u[» on him the resumed her usual cheerfulness and all appealed to be well. She has been taken off since that, again and again, and so soon as it is dune sho is taken with ibese fits or thrown into spasms. From this the family has taken some strange ideas, and to prevent her from having the fits they have had (ho horse carried into their dwelling, and she remains on him day and nighi. Once or twice while asleep they havo taken her off—this circumstance commenced about six days ago and Irom appearances it will continue f< t some time. I feel a delicacy in mating any lar.bcrreraaik', and will leave it with you and yum readers. Your ob’t. sv’t. Green county, May 10, 1833. Froth the N. O. Picayune May It). The Blockading Squadron. Thc American schooner Essex, Capt. Cot trell, from New York for Tampico, arrived at this port yesterday morning, having been hail ed by the French blockading squadron oft’the port ot her destination, on the HOih ult., her papers end used, and ordered away Without bc m,r allowed any communication with the shore.
