A SUIT AT X VVV.—[an old iron.] ClnnStlUoflheCtart //tiiK.-Il was in the days Judge Dorsey —I think in 18 , the docket will shew—that 1 first got acquainted with that mad*ap, Frank Taylor. Ho was a merry, brokM-down gentleman, who wore a black silk handkerchief round his nock—and had a smaller inf of law which sometimes made him very elo quent. One day Frank, m ht. usual way fell to abusing the Courts, and the Judges, and the Leg islature. and the whole park of them m such a Style that I w.. quite shocked to hear him. IU. inure I rebuked him the more he railed, and a lan he offered me a bet to the value ol a eo«f, that he would take that which i wore, from my hack, by .ho help of the law. and that I should never has. anything to do will, it again as long as I lived. Well I did’nt suspect mattes were so bad as a .ViXti.Ui *r««m it or I never should have made the- bet,—bat I ook him up, and we parted. The next day Frank goes to old Mr. G.hson, and gel, on a re ..leven for rhv coat, and tomes along with the Sheriff, and takes it off my hack and immediate |V nut it 01. his own, and looked . great deal bol ter for the change. 1 went to Mr. O.bao.i « of fice, to inquire how this was; and there 1 found myself 'cry decently docketed on a hat of suds far March Term, ISIS. Frank aylor s». Si mon • Sobersides. No. 1 VOO-and there ws. a bond given by Frank and one Mr. lom Straw, to restore me my coat if F rank could not show a title to it upon a trial m the Court House. I asked^ilr. Gibson when this matter was likely to be settled —for I Jid’nt bkc the looks of U—and SflivS politely .hat it would be lor trial in March 1819. Frank was always a desperate hwdfeUowon a coal —and 1 began to run over in inv mind what a pr^.ykokmg concern tin. coat of mine would he in March. 181.1. How ever, I waited patiently for the time and ns soon as t l.e couit was opened, there war, I in person mid Mr.Owynn, my attorney, to m ike a dash (o iny coat. There was only eighteen hundred cases on the docket to ho tried that term, and mine promoted » ’ lhc it, as a witness, 1 found by that lima they had tried two bundled and fifty cases, U.,1 Judge Horsey and the lawyers had to go olf to the Court of Appeals; so tho Court was objiged to be, adjourned ZZ "nXlml I y w told bv Mr. Gibson that I must come again next ou l a m.irc roapec.'blo looting ; it bad grown old -I,U| No 1800 mi the docket. 1 lie Court *«“•<* r'V'r sod of the month of Jan., they adjourned at the “casrsss's n M srch In March, 1821), it was just the same thing, only that Taylor vs Sobersides stood at No 7M . Well, I began to think tins no J'-ke. (.oil knows what had become of my coat—it was now better than it year* since 1 had made my rash hot. ITowaver mv pride woe rou*od » « ,u ' ww “|‘* n,)l "low mam give it up; so 1 pm,bed Mr. Gwynn again with another fee to let him see I was no daunted. Two hundred cases more were got rid of final term. and,.o nuke the story short .was in March, 1822. that my case waa e.i lid, wl . Mr Thomas Kell, the attorney tor Fia .k, slabd llwit hia unfortunate client.had, a short Urn - f,„e that, died suddenly of an •P 0 ? I '** W, ’'‘ Mr. :Kell colled, 1 think, suggesting a death. And i suppose Frank was buried in my «•**. •■> bad to wail until the next term for a new parly to be made. Mr. K. stated, moreover, that poor Frank bad left noolfocl. behind him. and died utterly insolvent and good lor nothing, whnh was a very hard case. 1 was afraid to say any thing ahoul the hot. lost Mr. Kell should soil* up «„ Ua, asses ia my hands. A. I'tankacstat waath -refore merely a matter of moonshine, that very worthy old servant of th« Gfurt, Mr. Mi c Irani He.linger, was put m Frank s shoos as ns .teini.tr.tor. on the docket and wifi, grra com iaiv, in nlep'., 1822. confessed judgment in my favor Mr. Kell not being awsro ol any right fi at frank had 10 property. Alter this I a-ked whir was to do, and my irien l Gwynn lot me thaltlir r.v ,t was in* io into brown paper bv this time, and that my only course was to sue lorn • raw.

These two cases stand like twins upon the docket, and wo expect to have them tried at the same time. Mr. Gibson lolls me now, that 1 may confidently calculate niton terminating the controversy about the coal sometime in the pres ent year, provided that there should be no appeal. If there should he, God help us! he says, he would not undertake to say for the next ten y ears. It has been on amazing fine suit, ami has nour ished under a great many judges.

The recent melancholy shipwrecks have thrown upon their attention smite ot the most important business Unit ever was placed before such a body. Thu best and ablest cri minal judga probably in tb s country, Recor der Hiker, bas announced it Irom tins bench to be the ri«ht and duly of the Grand Jury to make inquiry into ttie conduct ui tlio IMotsol this port during the recent lamentable events and that if they have neglected the law, they ran bu punished. Party feeling and party at taclnnents may indeed throw a mantle over that terrible negligence ol public duly, or frame apologies lor those who are leagued in the satu-j political juggle; but we trust the honor and integrity yet m human nature are ru liciuutly abundant to throw aside such mo tives and influences, as they would the reptile thai fastened upon man only to poison and to kill. It is now lime for the Grand Jury t» over look or postpone for u short space the rioters of the Five Point i—the petty thieves of the night—or the more daring violators and rob bers of tlio Hamblin gang. So tar ,as we tire personally concerned in the latter enquiry we cheerfully waive our right, and beg the District Attorney not to let, fir one moment our personal matters to delay or imcrleru with too higher or iDureiiuportanlinquiries relative to the Pilots of this i ort.

It’ With the latter was my informant.” r- Is there any foundation h*r tins statement, i- Ought not the Grand Jury to bring up Riley 0 Ins whole household, and have them all exam ;- ined on oath/—There are other poner houses a in town which the pilots are in the habit ot <■ frequenting. Call up Sandy Welch—-callup 1 all. Let the at be sought and searched 1 let a full examination be made by Ibo Grand f Jury. Every pilot of this port must show 9 where bo was—what he was about—and why " he was so employed, during those days and 1 nights that Hie late vessels were in jeopardy, f and eventually shipwrecked, troni their negli gence of duty. Let no political sympathies or partialities interfere. These pilots arc ’ sworn to do their duty. Did they obey their oath* 1 Have they violated their solemn as severations. ■’ We trust and hope that tlio Grand Jury I will not delay a moment —that they will be , gm the investigation tins day—that they will search for evidence in every hole and corner x in the city—and that if there are any ol the i pilots innocent, they may be separated and , set aside, so that the fullest and swiftest veil [ geancu of the law may fill instantly and im i mediately on the guilty. I I The way or tub siikep-stkaleb is i hard.—A young Hind named J. Alverson, r died in our county jail yesterday morning a i victim of his own evil propensities. lnnsup ■ posed that Alverson bud stolen Irom d.lierenl i farmers in the comity, no less than one bnn . dred sheep since the first of February. On r .Sunday night lie visited a pasture in Hart * wick, in which were a flock of about 1-JO I sheep, owned by Mr. Phillip Lawton. During * Hie last week u brother of Mr. Lawson bad ! with him a large bull-dog, which lie valued very ' highly. It appears that the dog must have 1 been attracted to tlio sheep pasture during ' the night, winch is about bad a mile distant 1 from Mr Lawson's dwelling, by the disturb ance made by liietbnT. —In the morning, the dog being absent, Mr. Lawson felt somewhat anxious; and it whh 1) o’clock before tiie faith ful animal was discovered. He was found by a lad, in Mr. L’s employ, lying beside the insensible body of Alverson, and beside linn also lay n fine fill wether, with bis legs tied. Alverson was so badly bitten in bis struggles with lb-- dog, I hat be ded of Ins wounds soon after being given info custody. The dog bad bitten through bis wrist, and through one ol disbands; and he bad am; veto bite on Hie back of the neck; wlpeh is supposed to have caused his death.—O/scgo Ofisci ter.

An Express from Black Creek arrived las' night In tin* city, by which we learn, that on the | 4th instant a parly of Indians, near tlio Santa F’e Bridge, cut oil ami Inuk prisoners eleven negroes i belonging to Mr. lionet M. Doll, ol Ncwiiiihh- I villo. These negroes, started in company with a ( baggage train from Garey’a Ferry to the latter ’ place, with an ox team—and were about a mile I in the rear of the main body when taken. One of the negroes made bis escape from them, and | returned to Garey’s Feiry; lie stales tins number I of Indians to be about 80. Upon the receipt of [ this information, Lieut. Gol, t-rane, with emn , mondable promptness, lias ordered (’apt. l*rey . month’s company of mounted Volunteers to pro- I cued immediately to Garey’s Ferry,and await lur j fixer orders from Gol, Warren. Laptam Gurry s . company will join Colonel Warren al Jackson ville, and proceed from thence to that post. There , are but few troops at Garey’s Ferry. 1 Wo learn from Nownansvillo that there are , parties of Indians lurking in that neighbour hood, About three weeks since, a parly ol three, came to the plantation of Mr. Finish, and killed a Mr. Ostein, his son-in law. Mr. Palish, saw them commit the fatal set, whiles standing in Ids door; called to them and dared thorn to come nearer to the house, and ho would make sure of one of litem, when they made off. Mr, Pari-h had abandoned his place on the breaking out of hostilities, and had recently returned to his homo. Ahoul the same time, a small scouting party . went to the plantation of Mr. Haig, about ten miles from Nownansvillo, al night and discovered a:. Indian at a small fire in tlio field. A Mr. ‘ Youngblood, who was of the party, crept up, and ' shot ami scalped him; they suppose that there were two other Indian* in company with the one I killed, us they found tlnce packs and three rifles. It is reported al Nownansville, that a friendly Greek had been token by the Sominoles and car ried to an island in tlio Orange Lake, from whence he made his escape, and that he stales j that there are about 30 families, on Ibo island; I that they have abundance of cattle and bogs; that s they have no amnnition. It is also reported there, that a party of men from Fort Drone, went down to Gol. Mclntosh's plantation, about five miles distant, and while thora a party of Scmtnoles, disguised as Creeks, canto upon and killed one oi them. Funeral of the late Col. llrooks. —The body ( of the late lamented Lt. Gol. U. was found upon ' the beach, about 30 miles from this city, and brought in fur interment on Thursday last. On Friday, the last sad tribute was paid to his re ! mains, and ho was entered with the honors of war. Tite body was escorted to the grave by lire company of St. Augustine Veterans, and Lieut. Northrop’*company of Volunteers, under com mand of Adjutant Phillips, and followed try the U. S. Officers at litis post, as principal mourners, - tlio Volunteer oflic is in the service of the U. tt. x the U. S. Troops, fits Judge and Olfieers of the 1 Superior Court and its ollicers, the Mayor and I Alderman, and a largo concourse of citizens. The * burial service was read al the grave by the Rcv - crend David Drown, of the Episcopal Church. ;) From the N. V. Com. Advertiser, of Jan. 10. I Tu* Dkcawauk—Titcro has been a good deal i of anxiety manifested for the safety of file vessels y in the Delaware, particularly for the packet ship . Mouongabola, which left Liverpool lire 10th Nov. r arid lias been in tite river for sqycral days. Site r has a cargo on board valued at upwards il 000 ; and so various have been the accounts that e hopes of one bout have been dispelled by theac e counts of tire next. The Philidelphia Gazette h ol last evening, contains lire following : B Packet Suit Moxonoaukla. —Mr. William 0 Moult, and Mr. Alex. Lopez, passengers in fito ship Monongahela, reached the city last night with the ship’s letter bag. We have seen Mr. Moult, who states that he left the ship on Satur* " dav afternoon —on the Western Flats about 1 c miles Irom Mahon Ditch Light House, where '* she was run ashore Jhaving lost both cables and 0 anchors) for safety from the ice.

'Ac. r ’ We copy from the last Macon Messenger thr following dispassionate and sensible remarks, ir Iq relation to tite icccul transfer of a portion of thr e, stock of the Insurance Bank of Columbus, to thr > 5 Stockholder* of the United States Bank of Penn re , sylv.mta. j„ Ixscraxce Bask or CoirMacs.—Much un ,i necessary apprehension is felt, and as tve con ceive, a great deal of superfluous ComnWnl ex- : pressed by the nswspapers, at a recent transfer , of a portion of slock (and not a sale ol the char ter, as represented,) made by the Insurance Bank of Columbus, to Mr. Biddle. We cannot corn- 1 prebend the force of the reasoning used to shoxv that by lliis transfer a Iraud lias been committed on the legislation of tire Sitale. Tire terms of the charter, whether wa consult the letter or spirit ot it, do not restrict the owners of the stock in their negotiation* for tire sale of the same. Individ uals cither in or out of tiro Stale may become ■ purchasers of the stock; and if the provisions of the charter arc not violated, we cannot see how the ownership of the stock can lie made a sub ject of legislative interference. The people in this part of the country appear to be well satisfied with the arrangement, and whether A, Bor C, all or either of them are Htockholders, is a matter of indifference; provided the institution lie man aged on fair, equitable and banking principles. We know that it will bo tbe policy of tba Bank to do a liberal business ; we were going to say, ( that it will bo absolutely necessary, tlml they should do so. We arc well assured that tbe Brandt in Macon will pursue a policy, accepta ble to the people, and not at variance with the interests of our local Banks. The views of fin direction in this place we arc acquainted with from long and intimate association, and we can with confidence say, that they would not he ac cessary (o any measures that would prove detri mental to tlio interest of our city, or that could be regarded as a fraud on tite legislation of the State.

Jan. 11th 1636. 3 The proceedings of both Houses during the present week have boon full of interest. On 1 Monday tlio House was thrown into immense 1 confusion and excitement by the introduction of Abolition petitions. Mr. Adams presented one • numerously signed by women, the wives and ■ daughters of his immediate constituents, praying I tiie abolition of slavery and the slave trade in the ; District of Columbia. Gon. Glascock instantly t rose and demanded the question of the reception. Mr. Adams made some remarks in favor of the ’ reception, to which Gen. Glascock replied with „ great spirit and olfocl. One of the collar-men, i, Darks of Maine, thereupon rose and moved to lay the question of reception on the table. Which waa carried, yeas IJ6, nays 60. When this decision ~ was announced, Mr. Adams declared that he d would call up the question, to which the House II hud thus given tiie go-hy, every day so long as ) tiie House would permit him. Ho also present if c ed another petition, and began to read its contents l. with great vivacity of expression and manner, ■ and evident high gusto. He was called to order, ‘‘ and considerable lime was very idly spent in de ; bating the question—Whether a member could e read a petition in his place—the end of all which d was that the I 'x-Drcsidoiit was permissivoly read -0 ing the document!—but the closing phrases were so stimulating that a dozen voices called him to order. Col. Dawson your new member then raised the question of reception, and in a brief hut J manly and impressive speech appealed to the s II use to grant those who thought they had a 11 right to object to the reception of these petitions, c an opportunity of giving their voles directly and ,- recording them. He deprecated in strong terms 1 all undue excitement on the subject, hut con demned the conduct of those who continued toagi p : tale it. Tite question was then put, and the House n I reaolved to receive the petition by a vote of 137 e to 75 ! On motion of Mr. Haynes ofyour Slate, ll | tiie petition was then laid on the table. When r I Col. Dawson’s name was called, he rose and de r* 4 clined voting on the question, DoncliUc a true 11 son of the South! Mr. Adams then presented ’* | another petition of the same character and again " 0 ' the question of reception was demanded. Mr. Underwood, of Ky. opposed the reception. Mr. r - Bynum, of North Carolina, took the same ground, 11 j and without finishing his remarks, gave way to a motion to amount, it, The debate on Mr. Wise’s resolution fur a Committee to inquire into the condition of the 'Executive Department was resumed on Tuesday; n. and Thomas L. Hamer, who once denounced at the Van Bureuites so roundly as a Faction, ami if 1 as I am informed, called the Magician himself n :«r ' rc Political tSwiNULKK, prepared himself and the Party to which ho has descried, f.r a tho. rough beating. It is remarkable that Pearce and Hamer, the loudest advocates of the spoils party in ... now, ware ouco among the meat violent oppo nents of Jackson and Van Buren. The Obit te . man tiled to he very severe upon the letter wn j io rs —and complained most grcviously that they ;did injustice to the distinguished men of silt parly, in thru notices of Congressional proceed inga. ff I ofily kncK who these men were that t deserve any applause, I for one would not pass 1 by llicir merits; but really it would be a little ab- i sutd to applaud such great men as Hamer, Cam- t breleng. Pearce, and the other leading incapaci- t ties. Mr. McKenon, of New York, obtained the floor, after Hamer got through his orational exer- 1 cise, Seven friends of the Administration have spoken on this resolution; Mr. McKenon will be the eighth. Only four of the members of the opposition have spoken—and yet the Globe writers charged the opposition with wasting the time of the House—and Mr. Hamci repeats in his place the unfounded assertion ! The Tariff! The Tariff! This subject was in troduced to day, and gave rise to great excite ment. Mr. Cambrclcng from the Committee of t Ways and Means introduced a Bill with an ac- * comparing Kepoti, to reduce the Revenue to ( the wants of the Government. The Keport was long and occupied two hours in reading. 'I he . Bill proposes to accomplish within eighteen months, what the Compromise Bill proposed to ■ Jo by 1842 ; and provides for the entire repeal ol | the duties on salt and coal on the 30lh of Sep- i tember next. This measure has been introduced i ■without any concert of action among the .hi- j ministration party and it is universally believed by the members of the opposition that the object is simply to make a demonstration on protection. , I have not met with a man of any parly who has any abiding feeling that the bill will become a law of the land. So convinced are the minority of the Committee, that nothing is meant hut for party purposes; that the Bill is a mere humbug —that they have concluded not to send in the Committee report they have prepared. I warn the South that the Faction have mere ly produced this bill as part of that system an nounced by Van Buren in the impudent and in sulting declaration that “//e would carry the fiontl by falling in with Southern measures, Will any Southern man allow himself to bo first duped in this way, and then trampled under foot! I trust not. The Van Burenilcs will labour hard lodise another party in the South opposed to those who are adverse to any disturbance ol the Compromise Bill, but with the consent of the representatives of the great manufacturing interest. But they will do nothing. Mark the words. The tevenue will not be reduced at this session. This measure is only a part oflhe system of governing by humbug and excitement. Mr. Lawrence of Boston, a member of the Committee, moved the indefinite postponement oflhe Bill; and made an able argumentative and impressive speech against the bill. He declared it to he fraught with incal culable mischief to the whole country, and that it deserved to he entitled “a Bill to make the HICK HIGHER IXD THE POOH POORER.” The par ty’s troops and lieutenants made repeated efforts to interrupt Mr. Lawrence by raising questions ol older, and by calling for the ordeis of the day— hut in every case they were vot-d down! The voles indicated a strong feeling of opposition to the measure on the part of a majority of the House; and I repeat there is no probability of any such hill passing the House at this session. Mr. Law rence spoke with great earnestness, and like a man who was thoroughly conversant with the sub ject. Mr. Corwin next obtained the floor, and will speak to-morrow. In the Senate the Treasury Circular has con tinued to be the subject of discussion. Mr. , stranga advocated its policy and legality on Mon day. On Tuesday Mr. Rives took the floor in support of his own proposition, and in a speech of great length contended agai-.st the extreme and impracticable opinions of Benton and the rest of that set of Currency Tinkers. He pro nounced their schemes of an exclusive specie cur rency perfectly Utopian. Mr. Clay spoke on the subject to-day. He went at great length into the Constitutional questions involved, and depicted with his custom ary eloquence the disastrous consequences that : had flowed from the Circular this far. Ho dwelt with much force on the humiliating character ol 1 the objection Rives and others had brought a s gainst Mr. Ewing’s Resolution for rescinding, ! that it implied censure on the President. He declared that if Rives had not intended to con demn the Circular he ought not to have made the i speech ho did, nor indeed to have introduced his resolution, for both severely reprobated the policy . of the measure. Though his resolution did not ! contain the word rescind, it does effectually re i sciud the order. It is now known that the Secre tary oflhe Treasury was opposed to the issuing , of this order. As in the case of the removal of , the Deposits, the act was one of Executive will , alone. But unlike that case the Secretary clings f to his office, and alfixcd his signature contrary to , his own convictions of justice and expediency ! 8 Rumour even goes further—and reports that the whole of the responsible Cabinet were opposed to 3 trie measure, and the Senate of the United States has fallen so low, that it cannot repeal this con demned measure, lest the act might imply cen sure on the Executive ! The whole suhjoct, Ew \ tig’s Resolution and Rivea’ substitute have been I referred to the Committee on Public Lands. There is no nows here. Wc are expecting Santa Anna to be among us very soon.

Mr. WALKER did not ask the consider -1 alien of this resolution now, but would uiere ly express his belief that it was in perfect con currence with the opinions of the President.

Be it enacted that, from and after , the 30lh day of September next, iff all cases , where duties are imposed on foreign imports ( by the act of the 14th ol July, IS3J, entitled “an act to al er and amend the several acts imposing duties on imports,” or by any other act, shall exceed 20 per cent, on the value thereof, one third part of such excess shall bo deducted.—From and after the 31st ol March, 1837, one half of the residing of such excess shall he deducted ; unv thing in the act of March 1833, to the contrary notwithstanding. Sec 2nd And be it further enacted, that from and after the 30th ot September next, tiie duties on Salt and Coal shall be and the same hereby are repealed. On motion of Mr. ONVENS. the Report was read at length It is a very voluminous and detailed view of the questions and facts connected with the revenue, expenditures, and commerce of the country. Mr. CAMBRELENG moved that the Bill and Report be referred to the Comm ttee ot the whole House on the Stale ol tiie Union, and be printed. Mr. LAWRENCE, of Mass, rose and said that as one of the Committee of Ways and Means,and a member of the minority ot that Committee, lie begged permission to express his entire dissent to it. It was a Bill to re duce the Revenue in eighteen months to the same standard to which existing laws would bring it down in five years and a half. It did at once vvhatthe compromise act of 1833 pro posed to do in 1842. He wished the members of the House to reflect well upon the principles and effects of this measure. He wished to put it lo the western men whether it was already the sense and feeling here that this bill should become a law. Tins was a most important measure one of so much moment that the people ought tube advised of it long before its adoption —that it might not go forth upon them like a clap of thunder on a summer’s day. The very effect of its having been reported hare, would be that of panic. What was the state of things now in the country! Money, was every where worth fif teen, twenty and thirty per cent, already a great panic had been created by the peculiar condition in which the finances of the coun try had been placed and this measure would increase the panic, even in anticipation of its adoption. He wished to appeal to the representatives of the State ot Pennsylvania to ascertain whether this was a party measure. He trusted it was not. He asked those members whether they wore ready to espouse the doctrines of this Bill. He appealed to the members from the Slate of New York, whom he was told were in favor of this measure, —though he could not credit it, —whether they would sanct ion a mea sure, which, he was confident, would never be sustained by their constituents. He appealed to the members from Ohio and of the other grain growing States of the west to say whether they were in favour of reducing American labor to the same footing with that of the old countries of Europe. He called upon the gentlemen from Connecticut, as composing a part of the administration ma jority of the House, to say whether they were ready to sustain this bill. He knew that in New England there was a diversity of opinion on this question ; but as to one point, there would be on difference of opinion, viz :—that at the present, time, there was not a shadow of ground for this Bill, Did not the Secretary of the Tresury tell us that the the Revenue would be three millions short for the next year 1 What did we know about the revenue ofISSBMVho could tell . what would be the amount received from , customs and from lands'! What was all this providence for! We had no surplus now; and did not expect any for the next year. We knew what would be the effects of this mea ■ sure : next to passing it would be the mis ■ chiefresulting from sending it abroad to the . country. It would tend, merely by the agita . lion of the subject, to destroy the bonds (fcon . fidence and credit existing among communi ties. He wished to see what member from ' the northern or eastern States would declare > himself io favor »f this measure. ) Mr. Lawrence, after proceeding -further I was called to order. He, however, moved to postpone the biil indefinitely. 1 A question of order as to the necessity of • discussing the bill in committee, w-as under ■ discussion when this dispatch was closed.
