Tko March No. of this valuable work, is, as usual, rich in matter of agricultural interest and instruction, and we take pleasure in recommend ing it to the attention of those to whose impor tant interests it is so usefully devoted. Wreck of BA.nq.vE Havre. —The smacks left the city on Sunday, returned yestesday ; they were unable to board the wreck. Three of the pilot boats went down yesterday, two of which got alongside, but were unable to save any of the cargo, owing to the boisterous weather. They brought up some few sails, and a small portion of rigging; the sea was making a com plete breach over her at sunset last evening. Charleston Mercury of yesterday. Wreck of Ship Martha. —The schr. Ger trude, Hamilton, came up yesterday from the wreck, with 3 chain cables, camboose, 400 empty sacks, and some blocks and rigging. Capt. H. states that all of the ship’s stern has left her, and most of her cargo washed out.— lbid. From the Savannah Georgian, March 13. FROM FLORIDA. The steam packet Florida, Capt. Hedrard arrived this morning, from the St Johns, but we learn, brings no intelligence from the scene of war. promising a final termination of hostilities. The Jacksonville Courier of Thursday last, received by this arrival, has the following: Jacksonville, March 0. The prospect of peace which three weeks ago opened bright and beautiful upon us, is growing dim and indistinct with the smoke and clouds of anticipated and renewed warfare. The day of peace, like the long sought Land of Italy, reced ing before the fleet of the Trojan ./Eneas, flies be fore us into the future. The prospect is viewed now through the dimness of distance— and the “distance lends” no enchantment to the view”— although “it robes the mountain in its azure hue. After all the time spent —all the indulgence given, all the credit vouchsafed to the Sinon chiefs and their Munchauson tales of being tired of war, of wishing to surrender, they have not yet come in—or had not at the last intelligence from Fort Armstrong. Micanopy, Phillip and Oseola, have young warriors, yet unsubdued, un humblcd, proud, daring and as greedy for the bat tle's broil as ever. Our confidence, even what little we had, of the war being over is growing fainter and fainter — because the Indians linger in coming in—they have not done as Jumper and Alligator promised. They seem to be acting a deceptive part —they are manoeuvreing and arc ambiguous, and enigmatical in their “talks” so far as we can judge (Vom what wo hear. And because Gen. Josup himself, in our opinion, pla ces very little confidence in those chiefs who have come in. Every preparation is being made to prosecute the war. News from Volousia on the 7th inst. says, that nothing late had been heard there from Dade’s battle gaound—and nine companies, un der Lt. Col. Harney, were to have left that place on the Bth inst. for Fort Mellon, at Lake Monroe. Provisions, stores, lumber, &c. are being trans ported thither, as if an active campaign were commencing.—We fear Gen-. Jessup, has lost time by his humanity, in giving the hostiles the time they asked to surrender. That they will surrender, there are yet hopes, slight hopes. Daily we expect to hear something decisive on this point. Wo must wait for what time will bring to light. Another India* Massacre. —-Title Tallahas see Floridian of the 4th instant, says—“ On Wed nesday night last, a party of Indians, supposed to be from 50 to 60 in number, attacked the house of Mr. Wallace, who keeps a Ferry over the Au cilla. He attempted to resist them, blit this gun would not fire. He finally threw himself into the river, and swam to the opposite side. His wife and two daughters were inhumanly murder ed by the savages,,. Lieut. Banncrman, who was posted near the scene of outrage with a portion of the mounted men from Leon County, promptly pursued the enemy about four miles, but finding them too strong for him, returned for the purpose ot obtaining a larger force.” From the N. Y. Commercial Adv., March 10. LATE NEWS AT HAND. The Telegraph has announced as below the ship Poland, from Havre. Her day of sailing was the Bth February. She was so far out at sea that we shall not probably obtain papers in season for to-days publication. From the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser, 10(/i inst. LATER FROM ENGLAND. By the ship Ocmulgce, Capt. Leavitt, from Li verpool, sailed January 30th, Liverpool papers to that date, and London to the 28lh, have been re ceived, but do not furnish much intelligence. Parliament was to open on the 31st. The ministerialists were full of confidence, and made sure of increased majorities. The house of Medley, Scott & Co., bill-bro kers, had stopped payment in London. The Influenza. —It is stated in the London'pa pers that fifteen persons who were at the Peel banquet, at Glasgow, on the 13th of January, have died from the effects,of the prevailing epi demic. A French paper says that the Duke of Cumberland and Prince George were suffering at Berlin from the influenza, and adds that forty thousand persons are afflicted with the same disease. Accounts from Gallicia state that in the be ginning of January the cholera was raging with great violence in that province, and that it had re appeared in Poland. 'The following are extracts from the London papers: . Agricultural and Commercial Hank of Ire land.—We are authorised to state that this con cern has paid off the whole of its note issue that has been demanded, and the whole of that de scription of debt now remaining unpaid docs not exceed £30,000. Also, that the other liabilities are nearly cleared off, and the assets of the bank, which amount to £400,000, arc in the course of collection. A letter from Lyons dated the 13th January, mentions a report, tbat an attempt had liecn made at Turin to assassinate the King of Sardinia. The assassin, armed with two daggers and a 1 brace of pistols, was seized just as he was in the act of attacking the King. From the New York Daily Express, Mar h 10. FIVE DATS LATER FROM EUROPE 1 he news boat ol the New York Daily Express came to hand early this morning, bringing the Editors of the Express complete files of English i papers to the close of January. The papers i came by the packet ship Westchester, Capt. Far ris, which left Liverpool on the 26th January, and the ship Ocmulgce, Capt Leavitt, which sail ed four days after the Westchester. ENGLAND. Lovnox, Jan. 25. Money Market, Friday.— Since last Satur day the fluctuation of Consols has been about one per cent; the extreme prices being 90 and 86. On one or two days, the demand for Money 18took has exceeded the supply, hut, upon the whole, Stock of all kinds is much more plentiful than it has lately been. Nothing is yet ascertained as to the intention of the Bank Directors with res pect to the contemplated sale ol the Dead-weight. It was very confidently rumored during the ear ly part of the week, that at the usual weekly meeting of the Directors, which was held yester day the safe would be formally determined on; but the meeting broke up without coming to any decision. Additional interest was also given to these proceedings, by the report that an incoesse ot the rate of discount tos£ per cent, would also be proposed, ami the anticipation of both these events taking place depressed the price of Con sols to 89. The scarcity of Money Stock, how ever, caused a reaction of nearly 3-1 per cent. This morning, the price improved still further, hut they have again receded to 89 J, and close at {> —Exchequer Bills, which have been at 28 prem., have declincdjto 31—the Bank having sold laregly on two days during the week. Bank Stock, which was at 206, has-declined to 203. India Stock has also receded about 2 per cent. Saturday. —Very little is doing here this morning. The conscl Market is steady, Exche quer Bills are, however, flat; the continued safes by theßank operating unfavorably upon the mar ket. It is understood that during the past week, their sales have been to the extent of -£600,000. Bank Stock has recovered its late decline and is now 206. The house of Medley, Scott & Co., extensive bill brokers, stopped payment on Friday, in Lon don. Parliament. —Parliaments opened on Tues day, the 31st January. The Reformer wore in high spirits. Peerage Creations. —Ministers have been creating three new Peers, and advancing three others a stage.—Tho three advancements are Lords Howard of Ellingham, Yarbourough and Ducie to three English Earldoms, The creations embrace Mr. Portman (sun in law of tho Earl of Harowood) ono of our wealthiest commoners ; Mr. Hanbury, tho brewer; and [Mr. Fraser, a lineal descendant of Lord Lovat, who was be headed for treason in 1745, and whose family were then attainted. Missing Whalers. —The Lords of the Trea sury have issued a circular, offering to pay £3OO to each of the first five English or Scotch ves sels which sail before tho sth of February, carry ing extra provisions, provided they make the best of their way across the Atlantic, and reach the edge of the ice to the south ward of 55 lat. They also offer to defray twice the value of tho provi sions supplied to any ot the missing ships; they propose to give a bounty of 500 pounds to each distressed vessel, the crew of which is relieved while struggling within the edge of the ice, and a sum of 10001 if the crew is relieved while filled in the icc; and they further promise double demur age if it be necessary for any ships relieving dis tressed vessel to accompany them home. FRANCE. The Strasburg prisoners have been acquitted, and the following description of flic scene in tho court when the acquilal of the prisoners was pro nounced is interesting: As soon as the verdict had been pronounced, the post unequivocal tokens of satisfaction were manifested from every part of tho court. The prisoners were then brought in, and the smiling countenances of all around them at once proclaim ed to them the decision of tho jury. Madams Gordon trembled’ violently, although she was di rectly made acquainted with her acquittal- The other prisoners, however, restrained the expres sion of their feelings till the registrar announced the vcidict, when they embraced each other, with great emotion. Each of them warmly pressed the hands of his counsel. All eyes were filled with tears, and, notwithstanding the warnings of the President, the Court resounded with the shouts of 1 Vive le Jury, Vive le jury d'Msace ! The same feeling was displayed in the court-yards and environs of the Palais de Justice. The jury had the greater difficulty in making their way through the crowds, who applauded their decis ion. The populace afterwards moved to the Rue du Fil, to the galo of the prison. The prisoners, in order to escape the impediments by which they would have been delayed, got into, a carriage, which was followed with continued acclamations, and thus proceeded to their respective homes, During the rest of the day the town displayed the appearance of a fete, and even the garrison parti cipated in the general satisfaction. It was repor ted in court, that the verdict was returned by a majority of eight to four.” MR. WILLIAMS, THE OCULIST. The United States Telegraph of 28th January, 1837, contains a brief notice of the trial of Mr. Williams. He was tried before the Circuit Court of Washington county, for the District of Columbia, on two indictments, charging him with obtaining money by false pretences. The evi dence of Dr. Howe, principal of the institution oftho blind at Boston, Mass., and that ofßev. Mr. Summers and Rev, S. G. Roszcl, of Balti more; as given in tho Telegraph, go to show that Mr. Williams has no claim to the profession ho assumes. The cause was ably argued by counsel on Doth sides, and committed to the jury, who, after a dc liberaiion in their room of more than 24 hours, brought in a verdict of acquittal. We learn from the account before us that most of tho jury were of opinion that Mr. Williams had no claim to the character of a physician, surgeon, or oculist. But as the crime with which he was charged is a penitentiary offence, in view of his age, and the ciicumstances of tho case, as well as the severity of the punishment, they were induced to acquit him. It is stated, indeed, that when tho jury left the box they were equally divided, six for acquitting, and six for finding him guilty. It appears from the testimony that Mr. Wil liams is in the habit of first securing his fee, or a part of it, arid of requiring the patient to sign an obligation which, should he net perform a cure, or fulfil his promises, attributes the failure to tho impossibility of the case, and exonerates him from ail blame. Among the testimonials shown by Mr. VV il liams to sustain his pretensions arc certain cer tificates of corresponding membership obtained by him from some literary and scientific associa tions in Europe. The Royal Medical Society of Marseilles having granted a document of this character, have publicly recalled it, and struck his name from their list, as appears from the state ment in tho Telegraph. We have thought it our duty to make tho above facts known to the readers of the Advocate and Journal, especially as Mr. Williams, we under stand, is in the habit, wherever he goes, ol iden tifying himself with the Methodists, making the impression that he is a member ofour Church, of which we believe he has furnished no evidence. Souther Christian Herald. A woNßEii.— The Governor of Indiana has officially notified the Legislature of that Stale, that the office of Chief Justice has been offered to, and refused by, every respectable lawyer m the State, the salary is no low.—There arc no such occurrence in this State. We could well afford to part with some of our supernumerary Judges. We have already more, by many, than are need ful, and do not doubt that the bar could supply many more, if there were statiooe to be occupied. ' —.V. Y. Express. From the New York Herald. Tlic Loafer’s Caplurc-u Parody. 5 Not a grunt was heard, nor the sound of n snore, 3 As his form to the watch-house wabuddlcd; 1 Not a watchman made a curious j At the place where our hero got fuddled. . Wetowzlod him roughly at dead of night, His legs with our watchclubs turning; ’ By ihe struggling lantern’s smoky light, And the gus lig-ht dimly burning. No useless great coat confined his breast, Nor on bed or sack wo laid him; But he lay like a loafer taking his rest; With the fumes of gin around him. Few and short wore tho oaths we swore, And we spoke not a word of sorrow ; But we stedfaslly gazed on the face oftho bore, And smilingly thought of the morrow. We thought, ns we then turn’d from his side, And loft them to snooze all alone, That the law and Old Hays a place would provide, To learn him lo hammer on slone. Lightly they'll talkofhis money that's gone, And to his bung d eyes will upbraid hint; But nothing he’d reck if they'd let him sleep on, In the place where a watchman has laid him. But now our heavy task was done, When the clock toll’d the hour for retiring, And we kt ow by the frequent and heavy drops, That the rain thestreets was bemiring; Quickly and softly we put on his hat, On tho lop of his head bald and hoary, We tweaked not his nose, wo pull'd not his hair, But we left him alone m his glory. P. D. Q, TIT FOR TAT. A certain little army surgeon, who was sta tioned at Bangalore, had selected a vc.iy pretty girl out of an invoice of young ladies, who had been freighted out on speculation. She was very fond of gaiety and amusement, and, after her marriage appeared to bo much fonder of passing the night away at a ball than in tho arms of her little doctor. Nevertheless, although she kept late hours, in cvciy other respect she was vety correct. The doctor, who was a very correct, sober man, and careful of his health, preferred going to bed early, and rising before tho sun, to inhale tho cool breeze of the morning. And as the lady seldom came homo till past midnight, ho was not very well pleased at being disturbed by her late hours. At last his patience was wea ried out, and he told her plainly, that'ifshc stay ed out later than twelve o’clock, ho was resolved not to give her admittance. At this his young wife, like all pretty women, imagined that lie ne ver would presume lo do any such thing, laugh ed heartily, and from tho next ball lo which site was invited, did not return till half past two in tho morning. As soon as she arrived tho palanquin-bearers knocked for admittance, hut the doctor, true to his word, put his head out of tho window, and very gallantly told his wife site might remain all night. The Lady coaxed, entreated, expostula ted, and threatened; hut it was all in vain. At last she screamed, and appeared to ho fiantic, de claring that, if not immediately admitted, she would throw herself into tho well, which was in the compound not fifty yards from the bungalow; Tho doctor begged that she would do so, if that gave her auv pleasure, and then retired from tho window. His wife ordered the hearers to take her on the palanquin lo the well: she got out, and gave her directions, and then slipped away up to the bungalow, and stationed herself close to the door, against the wall. The hearers; in obe dience lo her directions, commcoced crying out. as if expostulating with their mistress, and then detaching a largo and heavy stone, two of th»m plunged it into he water after which they scu up a howl of lamentation. Now, tho little doctor, notwithstanding all bis firmness and nonchalance, was not quite at case when ho heard his wife express her determina tion. He knew her lo bo very entetee, end he remained on tho watch. Ho heard the heavy plunge, followed up by the shrieks of tho palan quin fearers. “ Good God,” cried he, “is it pos sible?” and ho darted in hia shirt where they were all standing by the well. As soon as he bad passed, his wife hastened in doors, locked and made all fast, and shortly afterwards appeared at the window from which her husband had addres sed her. The doctor discovered tho ruse when it was too late. It was now his turn to expostulate; hut how could he hope for mercy, rendering none? The lady was laconic and decided. ‘At least then throw me my clothes,’ said the doclor. ‘Not oven your slippers to protect you from tho scor pions and centipedes’, replied the lady, shutting the ‘jalousie.’ At daylight, when the officers were riding their Arabians, they discovered tho poor little doctor pacing the veranda up and down in the chill of ihe morning, with nothing but his shirt to protect him. Thus were the tables turn ed, but weather this ruse of the well, ended well, wheather the lady reformed, or the doclor con formed, I have never since heard.” RESULTS OF THE SESSION! The second session ofthe Twenty-fourth Con gress has closed. Both Houses contained an ad mitted and strong majority oi friends of the ad ministiation, and the complaint or the excuse, of last year, tbat at least in ono branch the compo sition of the committees was unfavorable to Ihe success of Administration measures, has had no foundation. The committees were all framed with undcvialing regard to the strictest .injunc tions party discipline. With such majorities and with committees so composed, what has Congress rone at this session. In more than thirty years of acquaintance with Congress, we have never known a session so barren in valuable results. With great difficulty, and at the very last moment, most (hut not all) 0,. the common appropriation bills, it is true, were* got through. So that the machinery of Govern ment will go on. And this short sentence des cribes almost thcjwholo oftho aclualdoings oftho session, if we except the bill for increasing tho number ofthe Judges of the Supreme Court by adding two members to that body. Congress has not reduced the revenue, tho leading object presented to its consideration in the President’s message at the opening of the session. It lias not reduced the duties on importations: nor has it restrained the sales ofthe public lands. The Treasury Order (the Specie Circular) of July 1 lib, 1836, so universally, and so justly complained of, is not rescinded, repealed, or su perseded. Both Houses, it is true, by very largo majorities, passed an act, rescinding and superse ding litis obnoxious order ; but the President nei ther approved it nor nagativoJ it. He put it in his pocket. It was presented to him some days be fore the (adjournment; but these days not being ten, ho had a right, as he construes the Constitu tion, to do neither one thing nor another. lie did not even inform the Senate, with whom tho bill originated, that he had not lime to consider the bill. He had, doubtless, abundant time; but as the bill has passed both Houses by more than two-thirds of each, he probably foresaw, that if lie returned the bill, with his objections, it would still be passed by the constitutional majority, and so becomes law, without his consent. He chose, therefore, lo hold it back from all further proceed ing or action of Congress, and in that way to defeat it. We hold this to be the roost exception, able of all the modes of exercising the veto power, because it is the least responsible, and because it deprives Congress of an opportunity of exercising its constitutional authority of passing a law by the votes of two-thirds of each House, without the consent, or against the will, of the President. On this occasion, the strongly expressed, un doubted, and notorious will of much more than two-thirds of both Houses lias been knowingly and intentionally disregarded. The will of one man has triumphed over the will of the People. This is the unquestionable and unquestioned fact; and we leave commentary to others, or to (anoth er occasion. . In speaking of the measures which have failed wo must not be understood, in all cases, as mani festing our opprobation of the measures them selves! We only say that |with all its majori ties and all its power, tho Administration has I foiled, completely failed, to fulfil the purposes which it undertook to accompli dt. It,! > ■ found itself just able, and only just able, and But indeed not without the help ofthoGppedtioqgto keep the Government along. If that Oppoldon had been less patriotic, if it bad sought L><-«to em barrassment, if it hud either withdraw Ivor voted against measures, wo see nothing hut that Gov eminent must have come to a full stop. The Fortification bill has been lost by a disa greement between the two Houses. Wo do not mean Mr. Beuton’a bill for new works: that nev er breathed a breath (some people think it did not deserve breathing-time) after it reached tho House ol Representatives. But wo speak of the common, annual appropriation for works already begun, and now in progress. This appropriation has failed, by the disagreement of the Adminis tration House of Representatives and Administra tion Senate, on tha subject of the distribution of the Treasury surplus, a measure which was con nected with the bill making this appropriation; so that all the works, where prior appropriations are exhausted, must await the provisions of the next Congress. And this leads us to ray that, while Congress has adopted no measure to re duce income, \t has refneed to make distribution of a large and clearly ascertained surplus; we say ascertained, because, ns was urged in both Hou ses, it is now os oVious that there will boa surplus next. January,it was, on the 2J of Ju ly last, when the late act passed, that there would he a surplus the Ist of January of this year. Tho Land bill not passing, tho bill for reducing duties not passing, another surplus is a thing of course. It may not bo as large as la A January, but we , regard it as being equally certain. This surplus Congress refuses to deposits with the btatrs. It ordains, on the contrary, m effect, that it remain with the dcposilc hanks. The House of Repre sentatives insisted on distribution, if there should . bo surplus, and would not yield tho point; (he i the Administration Senators refused to assent to distribution, let the surplus bo what it might. | The final vole in tho Senate against it was 27 to 23. So the Fortification hill, Distribution section ' and all, was added to the list of lost moastnes. The commercial community earnestly desired, tho passage of tho bill anticipating the payment , of tho remaining instalments expected soon to be received at the Treasury under the I rot tits with France and Naples. At the present; moment, such a measure was looked ftr as one that would afford considerable relief lo tho pris urc for money. The bill passed tho Senate/ but was lost in the House. Then tho bill for restoring tho duties oa goods destroyed by the great lire in New Votk—u mea sure of obvious justice to individuals, ami, from its extent and impottanco, deserving to bo re garded as a public, measure—passed the Senate also, but partook of the fate of so many of its companions, and failed in the House. The retaining money in the Treasury wo are compelled to legaul us a harsh and cruel exaction. We know no justification, hardly any plausible apology, for it; and while wo speak of the restoration of these duties as ono act of jus tice, wo cannot but refer to another, and that is the claims of our citizens for French spoliations before 1800. These two claims ofjustico, abso lute justice, as we consider them, would have ab sorbed ten millions oftho money of an overflow ing Treasury. When will Governments learn tliaty«sricc i« the first and greatest element of all true public policy ? Among the other hills a public nature which passed the Semite (and failed in tho House of Representatives) was’ tho bill for increasing the Military Establishment of the United States. Though this was'a measure upon which there is a groat divestity of opinion, it must bo confes sed to have been defeated by other circumstances than the hostility of tho House to it. The whole number of Senate bills not acted upon by the House was about one hundred and I twenty ; amongst which, as of the greatest geuer , al interest, wc may instance, train an examina tion of the file of bills, those authorizing the relin quishment of the 16th sections granted fur Ihe use of schools, and the entry of other lends in lieu thereof; to revive and continue in force tho act “to provide for persons who wore disabled by known wounds received in the Revolutionary war ;to provide for the erection and repair of custom-houses, at Philadelphia and New Or leans;) to authorize the Ohio llaihoad Company to locale a road through the public lands; to give effect to the Bth article of the treaty of 1819 with Spain; to provide for tho legal adjudication of the Bastrop, Maison Rouge, and other grants m Lou isiana and Arkansas, a bill in amendment of the acts respecting the judicial system of the United States; a bill to authorise the President of tho United States to lo furnish certain ordnance to the several States ; the bill to rebuild tha General Post Office Building, and for other purposes; the bill lo provide for tho tranuportion of the mails upon rail roads, &c. As ono effect of the loose mode of doing business in Congress, wo cannot but regret tbat among the lost bills is almost every bill, sent by tho Senate, for objects within the Tcrriloriea of Florida and Wisconsin; which unkinJncss to these younger children of our Union wo the more regret on account of tho worthy Delegates from these Territories, whose estimable charac ters, and indefatigable exertions in getting them through the Senate, deserved better treatment from tho House in which they sit. Nor less, certainly, do we regret that tho liberal ami en lightened intentions of the Senate lo erect a Hos pital in this city, and to establish a Criminal Court in this District, shared the same fate as tho Terri torial bills. Ofthe private bills, not acted on, the number is large, we believe, beyond all (oimer example. The number reported in the House of Represen tatives, and never acted upon in any manner, u mounted to several hundred. Such are the results of the session, as wo has tily gather them.— JVat, Ini. A SKETCH. And many a moving accident by flood and field ! The Globe contains a very civil sketch, from the hand of a correspondent by an old seaman, by the name of Reuben James. It is almost too romantic to be true —but if its statements be sup ported by evidences we hope the present Congress will not adjorn, without slipping into same ap probation bill, some addition to his present pen sion of SIOO. Tho sketch states that R. James was born in Delaware, in 177 1 —and entered the Naval Service of the U. W. in ’97 or ’9B.—Ho was on board the Constellation, Coro, Truxton when he took the Le Insurgent, in ’99, and beat the La Vengeance, in 1800. He next shipped on hoard the President, Coro. Dale, 1801, and rc-shipped on board tho Chesapeake in tho Medi terranean service. He volunteered on board the schr. Entcrprize, Lieut, now Com. Hull, which gave chase lo a Tripolitan sloop of war, which blowup. In 1803, he was ono of the 60 men selected by Lieut, Decatur, to destroy the frigate Philadelphia—a feat which Lord Nelson pro nounced “ the most bold and daring act of the age.” He (was on board the gun boat comman ded by Decatur, on the 3d of August, 1804, in Ihe attack upon the battery and vessels of Tripoli, and is staU:d to be tho seaman who saved Decatur’s life; for, "this generous minded tar, then danger ously wounded and deprived tiro use of both hands, rushed between him and the sabre, the stroke of which he received on hia head whereby he was severely wounded.” He was subsequently in several other cruizes, and engaged in other actions —or t board the U. .Slates, Capt. Decatur, when he captured tho fri gate [Macedonia —-on beard the President, when j the same Commodore whipped the Endyrnion. lie was also in the G.rfier, Coin. Decatur, when he captured the Algerine frigate with her AJrni ril —in the Independence if. with Commodore Bainbtidge, and afterwards in the Guerrier, McDonough—with Commodore Porter, when be cruized against the Pirates in the West Indies with Thompson in the Pacific Ocean—and re sbipped on board the Broody wine, in which he sailed for the South Sea-, and returned to Nor folk hospital in 1835, Hi i» now 60 years of. oge, ami has served 33 active years i t Ihe Amer ican Navy. In October lasfeho went on to Wash ington, where hie right leg, which had been shat tered by a musket ball, was cut oft’in the Naval hospital, to which ho had Seen ordered by the Secretary of tho Navy. The operation had nigh cost him hia lift.—and this characteristic anec dote is told of him: When the spasms were most severe and deglu tititnn and articulation both very difficult he a bandoned all hopes of recovery and begged his surgeon Dr. J. M Foltz, of U. 8. Navy, to case him off handsomely exhibiting a degree of resig nation and fortitude seldom to ho met with. He however, soon commenced improving when it was necessary to use brown stout or brandy toddy. His reply was with tho true spirit of an old salt sup pose Doctor you give us liolh. The maximum pension that can be allowed him by the Navy De partment has been granted about 100 dollars per annum, which is not sufficient to board and clothe him and now that ho has grown teo old to fight ho is left cither to beg or starve, which ever may best suit his conveyance unless congress should grant him a pension which would make him comfortable for the short time which will bo yet allowed him to live. For ono wo do not hesitate to say that if these statements bo correct Reuben James has our best wishes and would have our vote for an increase of bis pension. May bis friendly biographer bo rewarded for tho picturesque sketch ho Ires given usol the weather beaten tar by having his proposition seconded carriedthrough before the close ofthe present Administration.— U.

Among tho measures of the Inst session is a bill, passed (as far an we know, without objection) by the Houses of Congress, and approved by tho President of the United States, of which the fol lowing is a copy. “ He it enacted, Sflc, That the Secretary of tho Treasury be directed to accept tho terms of settle ment proposed by the President and Directors of tho Bank of the United Slates under the Penn sylvania charter in their memorial to Congress, presented at tho presented at tho present session, for the payment to the United Stales of the capi tal stock owned by them in lire Into Bank oftho United States, and the final adjustment and set tlement ol lire claims connected with m arising out of tho same, and to take such obligations lor tho payment of ihe several instalments in said proposed terras of settlement mentioned r.s ho may think proper: Frovided, That nothing her ein contained shall prejudice or affect in any way the question between the General Government of lire United States and tho Bank oftho United States respecting the claim for damages on account of tho protest ol the bill as exchange drawn ou the French Government.” Our readers will perceive, on a close examina tion of this hill, that it is a statutory refutation of tire doctrine of tho Executive of tho United Stales ou sundry occasions, and especially in the paper read hy tho President of tho United Slates lo bis Cabinet in September, 1833, ou lire sub ject of tho Bank of tho United States, his subse quent message to Congress, and the “reasons” given hy hia own direction for the removal of tho public dopomtea. It could hardly have boon ex pected, in lire nature of things, that (Ire anti dote should so soon overtuko the harw. We were about to point out tho inferences to be de duced from this hill, when wu met with tin m, in lire National Gazette, in a condensed form, as follows: “ 1. Tha act directs —not authorizes, but di rects —lire Secretary to do what be refused lo do —settle with the Bank, without a previous repay ment of the damages on the French bill, and Ket tle with the bank on tire terras stated in its own memorial. “3. Ho is to settle, not with the old Bank, hut with ‘ the Hank of tho United fcUutcs under tho Pennsylvania charter.’ “3. It thus recognizes the existence and va lidity of that charter, “4. It receives $ 115 58 for every it 100 in a hank which tha President pronounced to be in solvent. ‘5. It taken the obligation of tire now hank [the charter of which he has declared ought to bo an nulled] for eight millions sf dollars, and trusts it for four years." — JVat, hit. WASHINGTON, M a licit 6, 1837. The Senate is still in session, hut will probably adjourn to-morrow. Among lire nominations al ready confirmed, are those of Mr. Poinsett, ns He cretary of War ; George M. Dallas, us Minister to Russia; Pomhalan Ellis, as Minister Plenipo tentiary to Mexico; Mr. Luhranche, of Louisiana, (Speaker of tire House of Delegates,) as Minis ter tOj'i’cxas ; William Smith, of Alabama, lalcjof SJouth Carolina, and twice Senator in Congress from that State, and recently a Van Burnt Elec tor in Alabama, as additional Justice of Ihe Su preme Court of tire U. S., under tho new law; M. Catron, of Tennessee, formerly Judge in that State, and who was not reeltosen at the lust choice of Judges there, (and for whose appointment Mr. Speaker Polk, interested himself so much, as to address the House, in Committee of the Whole, in favor of tho Bill creating tire two ad ditional Judges,) as tire ninth Justice of the Su premo Court. No other Cabinet Officer will bo nominated at present. Mr. Butler, it is understood, will leave the War Department, as soon os Mr. Poinsett, may bo ready to enter upon its duties. The double duty which Mr. Attorney General Butler, lias long performed, for lire sake of tire double pay, bus seriously affected bis health. The late President, by retaining the Currency Bill, completely defeated lire hopes of lire busi ness community, who looked to that measure, us the means of partial relief from lire present arti ficial and unnecessary pressure on the money m irket. The President has published in the Globe, his reasons for the measure. Had he com municated them lo Cong.css, with his veto, lire bill would have passed both Houses—a rebuke which General Jackson avoided, by retaining tire bill, in contempt of the real purpose and intention of the provisions of (be constitution, in regard to tire Executive power. But it is now whispered, that the object of this extraordinary measure is lo enable Mr. Van Burcn to commence his admin istration with the very popular set of revoking the Treasury order. Tbis will certainly give him great credit with those who do not under stand the intrigue. It is already staled, with confidence, that the order revoking tho Treasury Order of July, has been prepared, and will appear forthwith. Willi a good round sum in the bands ofthe Deposite Bunks,the Van Huron men may, without delay, recommence their laud specula tions to great advantage. Titc Coronation Ball was a grand affair. Mr. Van Burcn and Mr. Jackson entered with great pomp, attended by Mr. King, of Alabama, Mr. Rive,i, and Titos. Ritchie, Esq., of Virginia, who, hy the way, appears to act as Grand Chamber lain of tire new Court—and received the congra tulations of tho brilliant a-scmbly, if not with much dignity, at least with a good deal of selle satisfaclion and importance. At the supper table Mr. Ritchie, was very properly placed at tho right band of the President, There is honor and glory for old Virginia! Glory enough is it for her, that one of her sons sits at the right hand of him, whose chief glory and boast was, to he the toady ol General Jackson. I was present at the departure of General Jackson, in the Cars, for Uaitirnoic. Hw Cabi net, and all his toafdays, were there, taking an af fectionate and melting leave. With all their ef forts, they could not raise even a crocodile tear amongst the whole throng. Mr. Benton was conspicuous among the leave-takers. He grasp ed tho old general hy tho band, and with a gn at flourish, three limes invoked the blessings ol Heaven upon him. The General, without put ting down his pipe, or responding to the invoca tion, merely said, “good bye—give love to your dear wife.” He was attended hy the Surgeon General, who will accompany him lo Wheeling MKMRJgwawa rjrgf»»r."var . mam whence another .medical attendant, detailed for lire purpose, from the army, widberorrpany him lo tho Hermitage. Affer spending the night with Chief Justice Muncy, at Baltimore, he was to proceed to Ellicott’s Mills this morning, and thence pursue his journey, in his carriage. So that is tho last of Andrew Jackson; and of his power and influence and crowds of pretended and offici ous friends Who will do him reverence now! The old and faithful friends who brought him into power, he has sold off, and alienated, for the sake oi’n mercenary hand of flatterers, who de spised while they used him. In Ills own Slate, and in his own district, nml even in the very vi cinity of tho Hermitage, where once he was al most adored, he is now viewed with indifference distrust, or hostility.
