We went la»t night to see Blitz, the great Ma gician, from Moravia. Great indeed he is in all that pertains to his performance.

THE FAITHLESS REPRESENTATIVES We ask the particular attention of our readers to the proceedings of Congress, some lime sines, published in 10-dsys jwprr, on the subject of A ho lition. We ask our Georgia Trailers especially, to scrutinise the votes of their memliers in Con gress upon the direct question, “ shall thu Aboli tion petition! bo received.” It will tie seen by references to the yeas and nays that Messrs. Cle veland, Grantland, Haynes, and Owens, have all voted directly to receive those almminablc peti tions, which are intended to overturn the long established domestic institutions of the south, roll ua of our property, endanger the (ware of our fire sides, Iht lives of our fsmilios, and the permanen cy of the Union itself. Holsey and Jackson wort absent, tho Istter sick in Philadelphia, tho former—we know not where! Glascock and Dawson like Into representatives of the South and Southern rights, resisted with firmness this Da grant invasion of all that is near and dear to us. They will meet their just reward in tho cheering approbation of their constituents. But the faith less /stir, what shall be their reward ! Can they, ought they to he any longer trusted by a confiding people to whose interests, rights and feelings they have proved themselves so treache rous I We call upon the people, tho reflecting people whose interests are at stako, and who un chained hy fetters of parly ran look with sober ness and judgment upon such conduct, to put their mark upon the faithless men who have be trayed them in the day and hour of peril. Do theao mon truly represent the (ample o( Georgia! Is it the desire of (hs citizens of this state, that their representatives should extend any counte nance to tho abolitionists hy voting in Congress to receive and entertain their petitions'! We think not. But it is for the people (i answer! Ws shall not fail to furnish them with every in formation necessary to cnsMe them to decide cor rectly. Having done (hat much wc shall have discharged our duty. While on this subject, wc call attention to the following extract front the correspondence of the New York Courier. It wan written on tho oc casion of Mr. Adams' presenting a batch of Abo lition petitions. Mr. Glascock, of Georgia, objected to ( he reception of the petition. Mr. Ana.ns rose in stantly, and advocated the propriety and jus tice of tho recaption with great energy and earnestness. He dwelt with a great deal ot pathos on the personal character of the peli tinners, and asked tho mem be is how they would toe),if ajpetitinn signed hy their mothers and aiders were conlumelmtsly rejected. He particularly appealed to Mr, Glascock, as a man and a sun, to withdraw his objections. Hut that gentleman’s reply to (his pointed ad dress was most cogent and impressive. He dwelt with affecting eloquence on the hazards that would l»e daily encountered hy the moth ers and daughters ot tho Smith, if tho notions of the fanatics of the North wore to have ful swing;—and he asksd if the House was to have no sympathy for them as well as for those peraens in the North who were officious, in invoking the interference of Congress in matters with which they had no concern. Mr. Glascock spoke like a statesman on this deeply momentous subject, and I trust all parties in the South will sustain his course, when they see the truly southern spirit which he has manifested on every occasion when this eulijcct has been brought up. Mr. Dawson, of Georgia, the new member then revived hte question on the reception, and spoke with great spirit and force in oppo sition to it. A most irregular discussion (id lowed, involving numerous points of order, and mingled with great confusion and uproar. Mr. Mann, (our Bije)moved the previous ques tion; it was sustained, and the petition was received. On motion of Mr. Haynkn, of Georgia, the petition was laid on the table. [FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.] WASHINGTON CITY, > Jan. BUh, 1837. 5 General Santa Anna reached this city on Wed nesday last, and was presented to the President on Thursday. A cabinet council was held on the same evening, at which a proposition offered by him relative to the recognition of the indepen dence of Texas, and the restoration of peace and tranquillity to that country was taken into con. ■idsration. It happened that on the morning of Thursday, the President transmitted to the Sen ate, copies of a most interesting correspondence which had taken place during the past summer, botween the President of the Mextesn Republic and himself. The letter of the former, is dated the 4th of July, and after intimating thaUhis re. eidonce in Texas had convinced him of the utter uselessness of prosecuting the war against Texas, he aska the countenance and support of General Jackson, to bring about tho recognition of the independence of Texas, and the restoration of peace. The date of the President’s reply, is the 4th of September. Me reminds Gen. Santa Anna that he was yet a prisoner of war; and that the Mexican authoriliee had declared they would no' be found by acta of hit; and that while ho was willing to do ail, which propriety would permit to attain the cljoct of Gen. Santa Anna’s letter, he would be prohibited by this consideration, and by Ifce laws of neutrality, from taking any active part in the conlroversey. A tier the message and these documents were read, Mr. Preston rose, and spoke with great spirit and force of the obligations of this country to recognize the independence of Texas at once, and without reference to anything that had been said or done by Santa Anna; (hough he thought that as that person was no longer a captive but at liberty and in this city, the same objections which the President had to Heat ing with him at the date of his letter, did not now hold good. Mr. Walker concurred in the opinion of Mr. Preston. Mr. Calhoun briefly address, ej the Senate ou the sulgect, and concluded with saying that he was prepared to act at once, and agree to the immediate recognition of tbs inde pendence of Texui. 'i'lie documents were order ed to be printed. The majority in the Senate, the parly who pretend to l»i the exclusive republicans, and strict constructionists, have been struggling hard for a measure which strikingly illustrates their hypo crisy and inconsistency. Mr. Wright from the Committee on Finance, introduced a bill to anti cipate the payment ot the indemnities under the French and Neapolitan treaties, by paying out of tbe Public Treasury two and a half mi I lions of dollar* ! to lha claimants byway of a loan at four |>er cent. The measure was opposed with great spirit and force by Messrs. Clay, Calhoun, and Davis, both on grounds of its unconstitution ally and its inex|>«dicncy. It was warmly ad vocated by the friend » of the people and to a itrict contraction of the constitution 11 Ben ton, Buchanan, and Wright. No mint can enter tain a doubt that there ia not a shadow of autho rity in the constitution for loaning nut public money to favoured individuals, In the course op the debate Mr. Wright, in referring to some re marks of Mr. Calhoun, intimated distinctly, (hat the latlrr gentleman was, and always hud been in favour of creating a surplus, Mr. Calhoun in bis reply, quoted the statement, and asked whe liter he understood Mr. Wright correctly, Mr Wright made no reply. Mr. Calhoun then mid that he had acen the charge in the “ dirty sheet,” as the (Secretary of Ktalo called the government official, but that he had never expected to hear lh c grom and palpable falsehood uttered elsewhere, Mr. Wright rejoined that he did not mean to hurt the feelings of any gentleman! that he was nut in the habit of uttering what he heard, but only what he lieliovcd. Mr. Calhoun rose again and said, that he understood Mr. Wright’s allusion to be ampul at him, and ho Hally pronounced the ns. sertion to bo utterly unfounded and untrue. Here thu conversation ended. The Committee of Public Lands, to whom was referred the whole subject of the Treasury Circu lar, have reported a bill designating and limiting the funds in which tho revenues of the United Slates shall hereafter be paid. This measure embodies the resolution of Mr. Rives, with a slight modification suggested by Air. Ewing of Ohio; and is a complete abandonment of the specie policy. Mr. Ewing labored bald to get this bill taken up yesterday, but it was postponed for the purpose of pushing through the bill pro hibiting the sales of the Public Lands except to actual settlers and in limited quantities. The graduation clause offered as an ameiulinrnt was rejected. Mr. Walker therefore moved to ro , commit the bill. He said he was confident that . this measuse could not be passed in its present , shape; and he felt sure that unless some bill was 1 passed which would limit the sales to actual set t, tiers, the next year would exhibit to tho country - an immense surplus in the Treasury. In the i course of the debate, Mr. Sevier of Arkansas, manifested some sign of treason, which must have startled the Vice-President and the unscru pulous slaves of parly. He declared that some bill to limit the sides in the manner prescribed must be passed, for if not thorn would certainly ho an overwhelming surplus, and if there was u surplus, ho would go for distribution and for Mr. Calhoun's bill!! He might lie proscribed fertile declaration, but he wished Senators to un derstand what they had to expect from him. A number of amendments were offered afterwards, and to-day lha consideration of the subject was continued, and several amendments proposed and discussed, but no decisive action lias yet been made upon the measuac. Mr. Ewing of Ohio, gave notice that he would on Monday bring in a project, which ho thought would accomplish (ho object donators had in view more effectually than the bill «s it stands at present. This bill was then made the special older for Monday. In the House, on Thursday, (he bill from the Senate for tho admission of Michigan was the engrossing subject of discussion. Mr. Thom as of Maryland, the Chairman of tho Judiciary Committee, made a very long and elaborate hur rangue, but not so much in elucidation of (he pro visions of the bill, as in indication ol the revolu tionary doctrines proclaimed by tho Maryland Destructives, whom lie aspires to lend. Ho was answered by Mr. Hardin, of Ky., in a veay lucid and " igorous spcei h, in which the anarchist doc trines of the Destructives were exposed with re markable effect. Mr. Vftidcrpoel has the floor when (his subject comes up again, which will not lie before Tuesday. Yesterday and to-day the House was principally occupied with private bills. Dining tire morning hour, the subject of the mileage of members, which is brought up every session, creates a stir and is then laid aside with out any thing done, was introduced by Mr. Un derwood, who offered n resolution requiring from , the Scrgennt-at-arma a statement of the amouni of mileage claimed, and the sums paid to mem bers of both Houses therefor, during the past and the proven) sessions. This proposition crea ted considerable excitement among the membeis from the most distant States. Some of them seemed to regard it as a personal affront to them t selves. Mr. Claiborne, of Mississippi, who, it is ( said, coolly pockets S3OOO in this way, repelled I with great warmth, the imputation which the resolution made upon him and his friends, and I commented with soveri'y upon tho conduct ot members who wore accustomed to absent them |. selves from their duties, for the purpose of making money in attending the Supreme and 5 other Courts, or of visiting home, or tho neigh boring cities on private business. He moved an . amendment for the appointment of a Committee 1 to inquire whether such members had made any reduction in their per diem compensation when r absent. , Mr. Yolt, from Arkansas, spoke in the loudest 1 voice that befit* his name, against tlia resolution, ■ and csncluded by threatening to offer a resolution f to have the Capital removed across the mountains i to some spot on the Ohio or Mississippi, if |. e i should hear any moie about tho subject of mile age. The committee of inquiry into the camsceof the i conflagration of the Post Office, haa mads arc- < t port; but they have not been able to strive at j , any satisfactory conclusion as to the causes, ( 1 (hough they suggested that it originated in gross , i negligence. 1 'file committee of inquiry in Whitney’a case I 1 arc steadily pursuing their investigations. The • only wilnasscs examined so far, are VVhitney him I self and Mr. Secretary Woodbury. Enough > had been gathered from their testimony to sustain I the charges which have been brought by Messrs. J Wise and Peyton. B It has been established that Whitney ia the agent of the Deposit Banka—that he derives his * compensation from them, which is not a settled 1 salary, but as much as ho can contrive to wring from them —that the statements relative to the I deposit banks which are regularly transmitted to Congress arc prepared by Whitney, and that the letters of this person to the receivers ol the public money designating and limiting the funds they shall receive are (ranked by the Secretary of the ’ Treasury. Mr. Whitney has had a week to pre -1 pare bis answers, he will be brought before the* * committee again on Monday; and I will keep you advised of ail that has been allowed to trims" B piro. Mr. Wise’s Committee of Inquiry into the con c diliou of the Executive Departments have also 1 met for business. Notwithstanding the shortness f of tbe time allowed him, ho will do something to 1 give the parly trouble. His inquiries will be ne -1 cessurily confined to a few points. , M.

Citizen. From the U. 8. Telegraph. ABOLITION PETITIONS. • The reader will have seen, from our Con -1 gressionul Abstract, (hat Mr. Adams has u t gartt introduced these incendiary petitions in / the House of Representatives, It was to I have been hoped that tins subject would have been allowed to rest, or if brought again into B the Halls ot Legislation, that Southern mern - hers, at least, would have voted to give it its e quietus forever. Rut such a course, (hough dictated by every consideration of duly to their constitutcnts and the whole country, does not appear to have been pursued by all of * them. The Van Huron party appear deter { mined to make a party question. A plain I statement ot facts will show the course which s they mean to pursue. Upon the presentation of the first petition, Mr. Glascbck, of Georgia, demanded the ques -1 lion of the reception, but subsequently wilb -5 drew it; Mr. Parks, a Van Ruren man, having 1 made a motion to lay both the petition and the I question on the table. On this motion of Mr. Parks, which acknowledged, by implica tion, the right of Congress to entertain Ihe a * bolilion petitions, the vote stood us follows, B (the names of the Van Ruren men arc iu ital s tes,) )llere follows the Yeas & Nays, Messrs. t Grantland, Cleveland, Haynes and Owens in the Affirmative—Messrs. Glascock and Daw lt son arc in the negative.) 8 This was the first vote, and the reader will t- remark that some two or throe of the State y rights members voted among the ayes, believ ( ing that it might operate as u riddance of all file petitions—but the far larger portion of the '• party voted in the negative—believing, and t correctly believing, that the Van Ruren men - wanted to skulk from the true question—l he B question of reception. It will be seen that I nearly all the southern Van Ruren (men voted in the affirmative no doubt, tor the purpose of I’ avoiding a direct role upon the real merits of a tho question. Rut this will appear clearer on r thcsecomi petition. I Tito first petition being laid on the table, Mr. Adams presented another immediately. Mr. Glascock again demanded the question of 1 reception —and though an attempt was made , by another Van Ruren man to deteat llic ob s ject, lie succeeded in bringing tip the true I question — “ Will the House receive the , petition !’’ There was no further room lor dodging; and many wore forced to do what ’ they would gladly have avoided.

Gut cf 137 who • voted to receive tho petitions, there were 86 i i, Van Ruren men, and every abolitionist in the 1 , House voted with them. They voted together, , „ as one man, on the right ofCongress to enter- j tain these incendiary petitions ! While out of ' e 57 who voted in the negative, there are but i • twenty-nine Van Boron men, all the rest beam I Whigs. And further still, out of these Iwen- > ; ly-nirte there were twenty-three who had prevt- o oualy (voted to lay the whole eiihjoct on the ta ble, wind), while il was intended to screen < them from a direct note, admitted the right of 1 Congress to entertain the petitions ! Us the 1 remaining sit, there were four who did not j vote at all on the first petition ; and who, hud they voted, would, in all probability,have voted with the majority ; leaving hut TvVO MEM • ' IJERS in the entire Van Buren party in the ] House of Representatives, who were icilling J to say that Conga ess had not the right, and ought not to rceivc these incendiary petitions | of the fanatics ! What can be said in|extonuation of such con duct as this, in a question so vitally affecting , the safely of the Southern people, and the peace of the whole country 1 Let the South ( look at it, & see howtliey have been betrayed. Ft is the universal sentiment on the South,that Congress ought not, has no right, to entertain petitions; and yet Southern members, in de fiance of that sentiment, either attempt to shift off the question,or vole openly in opposi tion to the known wishes of their constitu ents. We cal! upon the people of Georgia, Vir ginia, North Caroline, and other slaveholding States, to note the conduct of their Repre sentatives on this important question. What is the attitude of Messrs. Pinckney, Drom oooijß & Co., who at the last session laid the foundation of the plot which they are now compelled, however reluctantly, to disavow 1 Do not their votes now confirm the belief that the movement at the last session looked only to the interest of Mr. Van Buren, regardless of the interests of the South 1 And how can the Georgia members go home and face their constituents—how can any Southern member venture to assume the responsibility of thus disregarding the feelings and opinions of the people they represent! We invoke the dis tricts from which they come to take this sub ject into their most serious consideration. The madness of party is prostrating every thing that deserves to be cherished by the pcop’e ; and, if not rebuked, will put not the constitu tion only, hut liberty, and property, and life, itself in jeopardy. Contrasting the votes on the two petitions, the conclusion is self-evident that the ■Btmth ern Van Buren men were willing to admit, by implication, that Congress ought to receive the petitions ; and when forced to give a di rect vote, they were compelled to say that Con gress ought not to receive them. This is the case with a large number of them, though not all. The Georgia members went to the side of Mr. Granger, smilingly ; while Messrs. Pinckney, Drorngoole, and others, were forced to fall back, and deny their course at the last session. What must be thought of such a party 1 We shall, in a day or two, present tiie votes on those petitions in another point of view so as to enable the people to sec the matter in still clearer light. Prom the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser, Jan. 20_ ONE BAY LATER FROM ENGLAND, By the packet ship South America, Caps. Bar stow, from Liverpool, we have advices one day later from England than were received by the ar rival at Philadelphia. Our London papers are of the 2Uth December, and Liverpool of the 21st. Wo perceive that Prince Polignac—whose in tended liberation from the prison at Ham we an nounced a week before any other paper in this city—was residing at the Clarendon, in Lon don, on the 15th of December, having returned from a visit to the King at Brighton. The Liverpool Telegraph of the 21st of De cember says that the turn-out at Oldham still continues, and the rcfactory workmen are suffer ing dreadful hardships. Mr. Robert S. Buchanan’s account of the wreck of the ship Bristol is published in the Liverpool papers. From the Liverpool Courier, of Deo.‘2l. The has this week been more firm in most of its transactions than for some time past. The quantity of business done has been greater, and the terms, besides being more satisfactory for the present, augur well for the future. Cottons have exceeded their prices of last week, and a fair demand has given confidence to the trade. Cali coes have been somewhat better of sale, and a slight advance on them has taken place. Fus tians have experienced a similar improvement; the homo, as well as the shipping*sales, have caus ed an improvement in that branch. Checks, ginghams, and colored goods, generally, have maintained sale, which, throughout the winter has been the most active of any branch of manu tacturc. Silks arc moving a little for the spring oidcrs, and give indications of wonted activity. On the whole, wherever our inquiries are direct ed, the answer is fraught with present satisfaction and the hope of a better future. We mentioned lasi week that a heavy failure had occuned in the commercial world. We are sorry to add, that yesterday it was publicly advertised that one ot the partners in the concern, (a fiat in bankruptcy having been issued,) was supposed to baue abscon ded, carrying with him cash and bills amounting to between £3,000 and £4,0u9. — Manchester Chronicle .l Turns nr Sheffielii. —The. trade of Sheffield bus received a severe shock by the countermand ing of many American orders.

FROM NORFOLK. The Steam Packet Georgia, Capt. Rollins from Norfolk, arrived at this port last night. By this arrival we have received our regular files of Northern papers.

From the Mobile Mercantile Advertiser, Jan. 21. LOSS OF THE IOWA BY FIRE. On the night of the 17th inst. at 12 o’clock, on her way from Columbus to Mobile, the steam boat lowa took fire in her hold while lying at Fairfield. She had on board 330 bales Colton, 1 and had just commenced taking on a lot of 75 1 bales then, when the alarm rtf fire was given. Tile passengers all and all hands except the Ist and 2d mate, clerk and deck hands, were sleep ing. the former were on the Blull'receivingcotton. The flic was notjdiseovered until it had progressed 1 considerably, and notwithstanding the hard oxer- ' tion of all hands, together with the whole crew bf 1 steamboat Vicenncs, and passonSers of both boats. ‘ all was in vain. Tho loss is a total one. Hiom Pbsci of provisions.—lt is not long since we exposed the iniquitieua system of up holding the present high prices of provisions by retailers, when, with the exception of Hour, al most every article of consumption not luxuries, bad fallen in price considerably. Acting upon the principle that provisions once up ought never to go down, the retailers have taken the diminution of the prices of necessaries as the fortune of war, from which they alone are to derive any benefit. The injustice as well as the evil tendency of this selfish procedure, will be manifest to all who give the subject a moment's consideration. Some of the retailers maintain an imaginative right to any benefit accruing from a variation of prices of articles for consumption, upon the prin ciple that the owner of a house is entitled to whatever advance he may gain upon the increase value of his purchase. A more childish, ridicu lous, and preposterous position was never before upheld. The latter is a mere speculation—the former is no speculation whatever: when to themselves the prices of provisions are raised, they imme diately raise the prices upon their customers, so that the benefit is wholly on their side. We are urged to these remarks by the appear ance of a notice of a meeting to be held in the Ta bernacle this evening, to take into consideration this all important subject. That a system so evil, so unrighteous, so fatal, could long continue is not to be expected—ac cordingly we find some public spirited men taking up the subject, wc before mentioned. They put forth the staitling facts, that in Paris bread is two cents a pound, in London three, while here in America it is six. They show the importation of thousands of bushels of grain from foreign coun tries into our ports, and also that our own pro duce this year brought in the market exceeds that of the last by several hundred thousand bush els; and they then ask—VVhat becomes of it I Where does it go 1 Is it consumed I Who eats it ? In the distilleries of this city alone, it is said, twelve hundred thousand bushels are annually consumed, and in the breweries many thousands more. These assertions arc startling. The subject is of the deepest interest to all classes, and we are much pleased to see it taken up. Many able spankers will be at the tabernacle this evening. Rate Road Stock. The sale of 1,000 Shares of the Slock of the Georgia Kail Road c|- Banking Company took place at the door ot theßanking House in this place on Thursday last in a manner truly gratifying to the friends of the enterprize.
