WASHINGTON, Sept. 9, 1837.
Bolli Houses adjourned yesterday at an early
hour, in testimony of their respect to the memory
w of the Hon. James Slandifer, a representative
from Tennessee, who died suddenly while on his
way to the scat of Government. Mr. Bell of
Tennessee, annouccJ the melancholy occurrence
to the House, and paid a just and eloquent tribute
to the private and public virtues of the deceased.
Judge White performed the same mournful duly
iu the Senate. The customary resolutions for
going into mourning were adopted by both hou
ses.
The Vico President announced the names of
Senators composing the standing committees. —
The most important is the Committee of Finance,
of which Mr. Silas Wright is Chairman, and
Messrs. Webster, Nicholas Hubbard and Ben
ton, —three Loco Pocos, viz: Wright, the author
of “the yet untried expedient;” Benton,the prince
of humhuggers, and great ball-roller; and Hub
bard, a poor creature from Isaac Hill’s State ot
Now Hampshire, crammed to the neck with
Agrarianism. There is one Conservative or
Kives-ite,'Nicholas; and one statesman, whoso
gigantic intellect makes him more than a match
for his four follow members, and as many more
of the same calibre— Daniel Weiistkh. To
these Senators has been consigned the charge of
1 so much of the President’s Message ns relates to
[ financial matters. From the composition of the
| committee it may be easily inferred what kind of
a report will be brought in. It will merely echo
the speech from the throne. The Repot t is al-
I ready prepared—it was composed by Wright,who
was in possession of the contents of the message
for some time before the opening of the session,
4 and was thus enabled to cast a perfect shadow of
iV, R some weeks ago, in the columns of the St.
Laurence Republican. The report concludes
with a bill to establish the Sub-Treasury system
But this scheme will never receive the sanction
of Congress. The proceedings of the House in
the election of Printer, proved most clearly that
there is a majority of 25 there against the doctrines
and recommendations of the message; and Ido
not believe that when the question is fairly
brought up, the Loco Focos will find a majority
even in the Senate to go with them. Mr. Web
filer, it is expected, will bring the whole powers
of his mind to the production of a counter report;
and it will, doubtless, he a masterly performance.
It is somewhat remarkable that the first petition
presented to Congress this session, was for a Na
tional Bask. It came from the Chamber of
Commerce of New Orleans, and was presented
Iby Mr. Nicholas of La.
There will be a most animated discussion next
■week in the House, on a subject which was
broached day before yesteiday by Mr. Biddle of
Pa., a brother of ihc far-famed “Old Nick.” Ho
.offered a resolution calling upon the Secretary of
the Treasury to state whether a letter purporting
to be addressed by him to the Clerk of the House,
relative lo the payment of the members in specie,
was authentic —and if so,whether the other public
creditors were paid in the like medium—and if
not, whence he derived the authority of making
such a discrimination.
Mr. Robertson of Va., yesterday added to this
I an amendment calling upon the Secretary also
to report the amount of specie received bv the
, government since the first of May—the sources
from whence derived—and the amount from each
the regulations under which the same or any
part thereof has been disbursed—the persons to
whom paid, and the sums paid lo each—the a
,mount now on hand, and where deposited. Also
whether, since the above date, the public dues or
any portion of them, have been received in prolcs
.tcd drafts, or any funds other limn those prescrib
ed by the joint resolution of 1810.
A good deal of feeling has been excited in Con
gress by the order of the Secretary for paying the
■members in gold, while the other public creditors
arc compelled to take “bank rags” It is like
.offering them so much hush money, to stop their
clamor and complaints. Mr. Woodbury will get
such a flagellation for this notable scheme, as be
has never received before.
The rules of the last Congress have been adopl
ed for ten days, and in the meantime referred to
;. a special committee for amendment and revision.
Mr. Polk has not yet announced (he names of tho
1 committee; but I understand be has appointed
I four Loco Focos, and one opposition member,Mr.
, Mercer of Va., with Hamer of Ohio, as Chairman.
Neither Mr. Adams nor Mr. Bell, the two men of
; the House who have paid more attention to the
5 subject than all the other members, have been
r placed on the committee. This is from the poor
I spite of Polk. Ho to talk of impartiality and dig
t nity in tho Chair—the man docs not even con-
K duct himself with decency. Such gross violation
■ of the will and expectations of the House ought
not escape the severest censure.
■ Neither House sat today; and tho members
■ have taken advantage of the leisure aflorded
them, to make the customary rounds of visits tc
, the President, Heads of Departments, Foreign
Ministers, and distinguished private citizens.

“The wrecking Schr. James Webb, Capt, Ben
ners, arrived here last evening, with the Captain,
• Passengers and Crew of the schr. Sarah Ann,
, from Charleston bound to Mobile. She t ran a
shorc on Sombrero reef on Tuesday morning last,
in a gale, and bilged by 10 A. M., part of them
were picked up on a raft, and some on the quar
ter deck of the schooner. She is a total wreck;
cargo all lost. I am unable to send you any fur
thei particulars, only, the passengers, &c. arc all
here, and there is no doubt, but what they
will receive all the assistance that they may re
quire; they arc really to be pitied. Ever since the
28th of August, we have had severe weather.
Key West, Sept. I, 1837.
Loss OF THE B AIIO.UE CYRUS UuTLEIt, OF N.
York.—“ Knowing that you arc desirous of rc
, ceiving all the news respecting the wrecks on our
coast, I herewith send you tho following state
ment respecting to loss of the Barque Cyrus But
ler, of New York, Capt. Suchet Maurn, 16 days
from New Orleans, bound to Liverpool, with a
1 cargo of Cotton.—That at 8 P. M. On the first
. day of August, came a tremendous squall, atten
ded with rain, thunder and lightning, wore ship
to the N. W. At midnight hard gales and the
same heavy cross sea, with dark gloomy weather.
At half past 3, A. M. came’another severe squall,
and a heavy sea striking the Barque on her star
-1 board quarter, called all hands lo ware ship, when
i breakers were seen directly ahead, and before they
could get the ha quo off the wind, she struck with
greet violence and knocked off her rudder.—
At the first shock, finding it impossible to
to save the vessel, they set the reefed forsail as
soon as possible, so as drive her as far upon the
' beach as they could, for the more easy proserva
r lion of the lives of those on board. In about ten
, minutes, the foresail was blown from the yard,
3 when they immediately cut away Ihc main and
mizen mast. The sea was then making a clear
f breach fore and aft, across the decks. She soon
! bilged, and filled so fast with water, that they lost
, all their stores, &c. At daylight they found
themselves off Hillsborough Island, or Inlet, in
’ lat. 27. 5. North.
At 3 o’clock, P. M. Aug. 2, tliey g.'ii out the
• small boat and four men with the intention of fa
. king a line to the shore. The gale was still strong
and the surf high, and as soon as the boat got in
. to the surf it was capsized, and it was with great
difficulty that the men reached the shore with the
boat. At 4P.M. on the 3d Aug. the sea having
, subsided, all hands got ashore with some provi
sions. At onc 4 o’clock, ( P. M. on the ithJAug. they
were visited by five Indians, who treated them
friendly, and two of them remained all night in
their camp. The next morning, six others of the
: Indians came to visit thorn,with whom they barlcr
, ed for some vegetables. At 10 o’clock, A. M. of
■ the sth Capt. Mauran and four men, look the
boat and proceeded along the coast south, in or
der to procure assistance if possible. During
their absence, Indians were several times seen by
the crew.
On the 11 th, the Captain and his men returned
on board a wrecking schr. called the Sylph, of In
dian Key; at 1 P. M. the schr. United Stales ar
rived and both vessels commenced saving cotton
f &c.
“On the 12 th, a party of twelve Indians appear
ed on the beach with a while flag, and made sig
-1 nals again to barter their vegetables: some of them
f were painted, which had not been the case before,
i and being susp cions of hostile intentions, with
the adviso of the wreckers, all further communica
tion with them was declined.
’ At 4 P. M. on tho 14th, nil hands left the ship
' and proceeded on hoard the wrecking vessels to
, wards Key West, (they being loaded.) Out of
f the whole cargo, there •is but about 300 bales
saved. The other wreckers wore unable lo save
’ any, tho cotton being so heavy that it sunk to the
• bottom, whilst they were endeavoring to hoist it
on board of their vessels.

, ust Blh inclusive, Paris files to the 7th, and vari
ous continental journals of late dales, from which
they obtain the following items of intelligence :
‘ GREAT BRITAIN,
j Tho elections were drawing to a close. Five
. hundred and seventy five members had been ic
’ turned, of whom 394 arc reformers and 281 con
' servatives. Sir Francis Burdett has defeated his
1 whig opponent, Mr. Paul Methuen, in North
• Wiltshire ; but Sir Andrew Agnew, Sir George
f Muway, and Sir James Graham, prominent con
. servatives, have been defeated. Lord Francis
Egerton, conservative, is returned from South
Lancashire, with Mr. R. B. Wilbraham, of the
t same politics. The first day’s poll in Kilkenny
j was, O’Connell 36, Joseph Hume 4, Mr. Ewart
p 2. Mr. O’Connell having boon elected for Dublin,
his supporters would probably vote for Mr. Hume,
1 whoso return was confidently expected,
f The Queen has appointed her cousin, the Earl
, of Munster, to tho office of governot and consta
ble of Windsor Castle, held by him during the
’ reign of the late King his father The Earl of
• Mulgrave is rc-appointed L cutonaut-gcncral of
: Ireland.
The King of Wurlemburg was expected in
, London, on the evening of August Bth, on a visit
’ to the Queen.
Prince Pierre Bonaparte, who was recently in
s New York, embarked at Falmouth on the 4th,
> far Corfu.
, Mr. Audubon’s arrival at Liverpool is announ
ced,
3 Grccnsmith, the murderer of his four children,
1 has been respited, through tho application of two
r physicians, who believe him insane, but whose
, reasons could not be received at the trial, for
some technical reason. He was to be hung on
the 9th of August, but tho respite was received
> on the sth. He received the information with the
r same perfect apathy which he exhibited at the
. trial.
The Dutchess of St. Albans has left to her
young husband 10,000 pounds per annum, tie
house in which Sir Francis Burdett formerly
■ lived, and as estate at Highgate. Tho Bulk of
, her properly is left to the youngest daughter of
Sir Francis Burdett, whose lady is a daughter of
Mr. Coutts. 'The Duchess first appeared on the
‘ London stage, being then Miss Mellon, in 1795,
lived with Mr. Coutts as his mistress till 1815,
t when he married her, on the death of his first
wife, and after his death married the Duke of St,
Albans, in 1827.
SPAIN.
Tho report is again circulated that Espattoro
1 is recalled to Madrid, and will be succeeded in
the chief command by Oran. Letters liom Bay
, onne, of the 3d August, state that a battle was
l fought at Cantavioja, in which the Queen’s troops
were repulsed. The telegraphic despatches of
• the 4th, at Bordeaux, make no mention of it. The
. number ofQuecn’s troops assembled near Canta
f tavieja was about 20,000 —of Carlisle 9000. The
following is from the Revue lie Paris, of Aug. 6.
“A despatch which has just been received from
1 Catalonia, contains some very important details
r relative to the late expedtion of the Prclendar.
When Don Carlos crossed the Ebro ho had 19,-
600 followers enlisted under his banner. Before
he reached Valencia their number was rcdoccd
i by famine and the hostile aggressions of the na
l lives, to 13,000 men Even during his forward
progress, bis army was melting away by frequent
desertions. . New that he It vanquished, and only
3 solicitous of how he can escape, his followers are
d reduced lo 9000 men, exhausted by fatigue and
0 privations. With those he is wandering round
n Cautavieja, in a slate houlcringon despair. Nor
is there in his own example any thing that ran
raise the dropping spirits of his soldiers.—He ne
ver quits for one moment the rear, where a cho
sen band protects, him a at one and the same lime
i- from danger and the contemptuous glances of bis
a army. Don Sabas! ian, on the contrary, is always
. in the formast ranks; hut without military talents,
a his bravery is of but little avail.”
FRANCE.
Our advices from Paris, through the London
papers, arc to the 6th of August inclusive ; and
’ our Paris files are to the same date, also inclusive.
’ The Journal tie Paris alleges that Count Mole
is likely lo carry his measure of dissolving the
’ Chambers, but other papers say that the idea is
’ abandoned. Tho King had gone to his chateau
D’Eu, for recreation, and the Duke and Duchess
’ o( Orleans were making a tour of the provinces.—
A sumptous breakfast was given them, on board
the New York packet Vitfe tie Lyons, of which
Galignani’s Messenger give the following account:
" The French & Amer. flags floated at the mast
: head, and above them that of Mecklenburg,which,
at the moment of the royal party coming on hoard
was lowered and raised three times in honor of
■ tho Duchess, amid the hearty cheers of the crew,
' who were on the yards, and in their holiday trim.
r The Duke and Duchess then visited this magnfi
• cent vessel in all its parts, the captain accompany
" ing them, explaining every object, and paying the
5 most profound respect to the Duchess.
• On descending to the grand cabin, they partook
1 of a sumptuos dejeuner prepared by the captain
■ for the occasion, during which tho Duke took
’ occasion to say in a tone of great earnestness, “I
’ thank you, Capt. Stoddard, for your reception of
• us ; I drink this glass of wine with a sincere wish
i that peace may always exist between the United
■ States and France.” The scene in tho cabin at
1 this moment was very striking ; the Duke had sta-
I tioned himselfbehind the Duchess, who had taken
1 her seat at the head of the table, where were also
" seated the grand Duchess of Mecklenburg, and a
> galaxy ofFrench and Anglo-American beauty.—
1 Near his royal highness were the captain, the
J United States Consul, Mr Livingston, the mayor,
■ and other authorities of Havre with all of whom
1 he entered into familiar conversation upon com
■ mcrcial topics.
' Tho offhand manner in which the Duke gave
expression to his feelings and opinions, scorned to
1 diffuse universal pleasure. He appears lo possess
1 an almost perfect knowledge of the English lan
guage; and the straightforward, indeed, sailor-like
1 openness of his mind gave a certain zest to all his
remarks. ‘lt would have given me great pleasure
! captain, to have written to my brother an account
• of 6Ur v'i alt to yo«r ship but he is,now at sea—in
> deed, by this time, he must be off Madcirajhowev
cr, he intends paying a visit to your country, and
very probably you will see him there.’ I give
this verbatim; it conveys a good specimen of the
' Duke’s general manner of expressing himself, the
characteristics of which are great simplicity and
' frankness.
1 TheMimcnsions and fittings of the cabin sccm
-1 ed much to surprise the royal visitants, the Duke
! who, on reaching the bottom of the staircase, and
‘ finding himself in a room wainscotted with finely
' polished mahogany, satin and rosewood, instant
ly exclaimed, “ C cst superbe, superbe!’ Then
advancing a few steps and perceiving tho ceiling
’ a couple of feet above bis head, ‘mais lout ceci
est bicn superbe!' Then resuming his English,
“Captain, yon have got a superb ship; I never saw
■ such a cabin before.”
The Duchess was more reserved, owing, per
haps, to her timidity in speaking English, but
1 from the lively interest she seemed lo take in every
thing, her pleasure and astonishment were evid
’ cnlly very great. She has a very prepossessing
countenance, eminently intellectual wiih all that
sweetness of expression which distinguishes the
> fair haired, blue eyed maidens of the North.
1 During tho whole visit of tho Duke and Duch
’ ess, the worthy captain displayed the most assid
uous and delicate attention to his royal guests.
1 The Duchess honored him with Iter arm, ami un
' der his guidance paced with evident delight the
: broad white decks of his splendid ship. Immcdi
’ alcly on ascending from tho cabin, the Duke and
! Duchess turned round to thank the band of the
5 National Guard stationed on the poop, the Duch
■ css adding, with infinite grace, \Te vnis qttc ces
.Messieurs sent amateurs dc musique.
One or two things struck us as very fine ; tho
splendid appearance of the ship, streaming with
the colors of every nation, the yard arms manned,
t tho loud hurrah from the tops, as the state barge
■ passed with tho royal party, Ihc band of the Na
- lional Guard striking up the ‘Marseillaise,’ and,
■ lastly, Ihc deafening acclamations from the thou
t sands collected oil the quays. On leaving, tho
royal Duke shook the Captain most cordially by
the hand ; a bank note of 500 francs was then
: presented to him, through the medium of an offi
• cer of the suite, for the ‘tars',’ who instantly dis
• played their sense of this liberal donation by
i ‘three times three,’ given in grand stylo.

THE FISH POND AT LOGAN.
In the course of my travels last summer I
visited, among other places, the fish-pond at
Logan, and I think that an account of that
remarkable, and I believe unique, adjunct to a
gentleman’s country seat, will prove interest
ing to your piscatorial readers, and to lovers
of natural history in general. Before, how
ever, I proceed farther, 1 beg to assure you
that though I may inadvertantly make mis
statements as to what J heard, I will relate
the facta which came under my own observa
tion with the strictest adherence to truth.
Lowan is situated in the Rhinna of Gallo
way, IVigtonshirc, N. 8., about halfway be
tween the town of Port-patrick and the Mull
of Galloway, and is about a mile and a half,
or thereabouts, from the sea coast, where the
pond is situated. The pond was originally a
small basin in the rock, with which the sea
communicated by means of a natural tunnel;
but as the bottom was very little below tho
medium level of the sea it was nearly dry at
low water. It had occurred to Col. McDow
ell that by increasing the size and depth of this
basin he might at all times, and seasons of the
year, have a constant supply «f sea fish, he
quarried and blasted the rocks both at the
sides and bottom till he had formed a circular
excavation of about fifty feet in diameter; and
there is now, I bel eve,at low tide, about eight
feet of water left, so that the fish have an am
ple allowance of their native element at all
times, and a] fresh supply every flood tide,
which rises in the pond about six feet. There
is a high wall built on the upper edge of the
rock, surrounding the pond, to prevent poach
ing in this unusual “preserve,” and a gra
ting is fixed before the tunnel to prevent the
escape of the fish; and below high water
mark the sea weed clings to the rocks, giving
them in that respect a perfect natural appear
ance. A cot 1 age in which a female keeper
ami her son reside, adjoins the pond.
When I arrived the keeper unlocked n
door, and I was advancing forward, when I
was startled at the appearance of a largo ea
gle—the osgrey, or sea eagle—which, with
and outstretched pinions, seemed
to menance t!.‘« approaching visitant; but the
start which his unexpected appearance gives
you is only an involuntary tnbutd 011 y9 ur
part to the skill of the artist whostufled hint
The door opens to a small landing place,
the top of u flight of steps which leads to the
water’s edge, where there is a platform of
rock, which, at tiro time I was there, was
only about two inches above the level of the
water; and below the lodge on which I was
standing was another ahoat a foot under wa
ter—less or more. No sooner did the parly
make their .appearance at the top of tho stairs
than there was a general commotion among
the fish, and they rushed towards the platform
pushing and jostling each other in their eager
ness to get to the place where they are usual
ly fed, just as barn door fowls do at the sight
of the person who feeds them. We came pro
vided with a quantity of mussels—scalded for
the purpose of getting them more easily from
tho shell—a kind of food on which the cod
and other fish in the pond thrive most amaz
ingly; and 1 was informed that alter having
been thus stall fed —it I may so term it—for a
few weeks, they greatly exceed in flavor and
juciness their untamed brethren of “the open
sea.” I field a mussel between my fingers,
about two inches below the surface of the wa
ter,and immediately a cod of about ten pounds
weight took it, winning the prize by a head,
from two or three more of similar dimensions,
all of which rushed towards my hand althe
same time. It required all the nerve I could
muster to prevent me from jerking back my
hand at the moment the cod, with widely ex
tended jaws, took the bait. 1 made several
attempts to get hold of one of them, but they
all slipped from my grasp except one small
cod of about four orfive pounds weight, which
I succcded in making a prisoner; and having
raised him out of the water and examined
him at my leisure, I returned him to his na
tive clement, at which lie seemed as much
pleased as I would have been in regaining
terra firma after an involuntary immersion,—
There was one large cod of about ten pounds
weight that I made several attempts.to get
hold of, but without success, as from' his groat
size and strength ho always escaped, ami as
ho con’d ntff throw dust in my eyes,ho reveng
ed himself by darting off with a wltish of iiis
tail that sent the water (lying over me. After
taking a short run he always returned to the
ledge of rock on which I stood, nothing daun
ted by my repealed attempts to seize, him.—
Tho keeper took one of the largest, about ten
pounds weight, in her lap, and stroked it and
patted it, saying; “f’oor fellow, poor follow!”
just as it it had been a child, and she opened
its mouth and put in a mussel which he swal
lowed with apparent gusto —at least so lin
torpreted a wriggle of his tail at that moment
—and she then put him back again. I ob
served several gradations of tameness in the
fish, some were quite tame and came close up
to the ledge on which I was kneeling; another
class kept parading from right to left about
two or three yards or so from rnc, but they
readily partook of some food that was thrown
to them; a third kept aloof altogether, and
would have nothing at all to do with me; and
Others, which I did not see, kept themselves
secluded from sight in Ihc nooks and corners
at the bottom of the pond, and were I suppose
the “Johnny Newcomes,” or “Griffins” of the
place.
It is a curious fact that fish, when they re
main long in this pond, always become blind;
and 1 was informed that this is owing to there
not being sufficient shelter for them from the
heat and glare of the sun, owing to the shal
lowness ot the water compared to the depth
of their usual haunts. Several which 1 saw
in this state arc fed entirely by hand, as they
arc unable to compote iu obtaining food with
those whose sight is unimpaired. Surely
some remedy might be found by excluding the
greater part of the sun’s rays from the water
by building a roof with an opening in it over
the pond, which would leave sufficient light
for all useful purposes,and boa great rol.efto.
the fish, which must suffer|iiiuch when thecon
sequences are so soverc. One largo and
blind fellow called “Jack,” is a great;:*/, and
upon the keeper calling his name, he appear
ed to hear and understand her, tor he came
I forward slowly, and she held a mussel lo his
mouth which he swallowed. The fish appear
! occasionally to disagree among themselves,
I as I saw one cod with one of its eyes appar
ently bitten out, and hanging over its choek.
At the time of my visit there were only
three kinds of fish in the pond, viz ,cod, floun
der, and a small fish—of about three pounds
weight—the name of which lias escaped my
memory ; but they frequently preserve salm
on in the same way, besides other kinds. The
manner in which they keep up the stock is
tliis. The son of the female who had charge
of the “Preserve,” goes out to Lea in a boat
with a tub or well, and when he catches any
" fish that he thinks will do, he preserves then
in the well, from which he transfers them t<
y the pond, where in due time.—; from a m mil
j to six weeks —they become tame. A curioui
scene occurred on one occasion when he pul
j a mackerel into tho pond ; there was a gencr
e 81 c tase after tho unfortunate fish, which only
a saved itself from being devoured by the largct
! and more ferocious denizens in the place, by
, running itself on a ledge sos rock. —London
(New) Sporting Magazine for July, 1837.
A Fox Story—no Hoax.—On Tuesday
I morning last, Mr. John McPherson, a citizen
I residing in the vicinity of this village, was
I greeted by the barking of a fox a short step in
i the woods. After catling his dog, he procee
• ded with him to the spot. When within a
i short distance he espied a red fox barking up
a tree in quite an open wood—and hissing his
i dog thought to enjoy some sport. The dog
■ ran at full speed lo the root of the tree, the
1 fox in the mean lime making much ode by
barkingupil. But the dog instead of attacking
the fox, fell in with him, and he too barked
up the tree. The master of the dog having
in vain tried to sot him on the fox, and his
curiosity at length being drawn to the disco
very of what ki« 1 of game was up the tree,
: soon found it to boa house cal which had ta
ken refuge there from the fox: and the cun
ning animal—the fox, (by its native instinct
no doubt) had completely succeeded in rivet
ting the dog’s attention to the cat on tho tree,
as the only means of saving his hide, as an at
tack of the dog in such a place would leave
him hut little chance to escopo. Soon,however,
the cat leaped from the tree,when it was seized
by the dog; the operation of dispatching it was
witnessed by the fox, although not permitted
to take part, on account of tho dextcriiy with
which Mr. McP. handled a huge club. Rey
nard, however, did not wait to see tho last of
the cal: he knew a thing worth two of that,
for he gave himself sufficient time to make a
safe retreat while the dog was still engaged
with grimalkin.
We were passing at the time very near the
place, aud heard distincily the barking of the
fox. The conduct of Reynard on this occa
sion reminds us of, and we believe the motive
wasthe same,as that pickpockets and other
offenders when hotly pursued, by hallooing
‘mad dog,’ ‘fire,’ &c., so as to divert atlention.
This was identically the case with Reynard,
for he had long boon a troublesome visitor on
account of tho clandestine mannerwith which
he seizes poultry in the neighborhood —Clear
field Democrat.
