1•; o v.n accord, requested,the licv. gen
.laman to visit him a* often as lie coultl,
II his death. Mr. Cleveland has in
formed us, that Knapp expressed a wish
to him, repeatedly, and particular on
,he morning of the execution, that he
could have had an opportunity to warn
his companions against the consequences
of dissipation and sin, and told him
just be lore he left his cell, that he was
persuaded it would have saved him from
ruin, had he always regarded the Bible
jo the same lisht in winch he viewed it
then. He repeatedly admitted the per
iod justiceofhis sentence. Mr. Cleave
hind was requested by Knapp to visit
both him and his wile, m the cell, a day
or two before the execution, when the
„„ onv which thev both exhibited was
truly heart rending. The last interview
between the wretched couple was on
ilie evening previous to the execution.
Tlx; anguish and distress evinced hv
hotl,” is said to have been indescribable.
.She was unable to support herself on
leaving the cell, and his agony and emo
tion produced hv the sad interview con
tinued till past 11 o’clock at night, when
he occupied about I 5 or 20 minutes in
reading the Bible, then became imine
diatelv composed, and. soon afterwards
fell into a quiet sleep, which was not
disturbed until about 5 o’clock in the
morning, when he rose, md dressed
himself with care, and again resorted to
his Bilile. He partook of refreshment
both in the evening and the morning
The liev Mr. Cleaveland visited him
before 7 o’clock, a. in., and from that
time until lie was carried out of the pris
on, lie appeared composed and cal in,
but completely nbsoibed and amazed by
the scene before him. The religious
services were performed in the cell.
Precisely at 0 o’clock, the prisoner
was brought from his cell, his anus w ere
pini mod, and, accompanied by the Rev.
Clergyman, the rSlk; rill and his Depu
ties, walked to the gallows, on the north
side of the gaol; and although pale and
emaciated, his step was steady, his body
erect, and he. gazed around with calm
ness when he was proceeding towards
the fatal scaffold. He was very gen
teely dressed in a dark frock coat and
pantaloons, black silk vest, hoots, &c.
No want of composure or firmness was
perceived, until during the reading of
the death wairant by Sheriff Sprague,
(which was done in a verv audible and
emphatic inannbr) when Knapp trem
bled so much that tbe Itev. Clergyman
found it necessary to support him. —
This however it is supposed might have
been partly occasioned hv the effect of
the chill air upon his feeble frame. As
.soon as the warrant was read, the crim
inal ascended the trap, the rope was ad
justed, the white cap drawn over his
face, and in a moment he was launched
into tiie world of spirits.
Signs of life, by slight spasmodic
struggling*, were perceived lor about
live minutes—in I after a suspension of
half an hour, the body was taken down,
placed m a coffin, and carried into the
gaud. Lo the afternoon, the body was
given up to the family of the deceased,
and interred in the Howard street Burial
(Bound in the evening.
Thus perished Joseph Jenkins lvnapp,
jun. the third of the unhappy men who
have been cut off in the anidsi of their
days, in the prime life, for their partici
pation in a crime unparallelled in all its
circumstances, in the annals of our coun
try, if not of the world.

From the American Daily Advertiser.
Gold Coin.—A bill lus been laid
before Congress, winch considers the
expediency of alloying the American
gold coin, so as to bring it down to its
standard value, and allow of its circu
lation in society.
It is well known that our gold coin
lias been so much above par for the last
thirty years, (that is, above the standard
value of silver) that it has been as rare
to meet an agle in the money transac
tions of business, as to draw a prize in
any of the National lotteries.
In the Philadelphia Gazette of the
17th inst. a writer objects to such a
change in the coin, without giving a
reason.
If guld coin be not for the purpose of
a circulating medium, we know not the
object of coining it. as some waste and
expense must take place in the operation;
and that gold does not now constitute a
circulating medium, and for the reason
ol its being above its standard value, is
known to all who arc acquainted with
money transactions.
The subject has become one of inter
est to a considerable portion of the Sou
thern Stales, that furnish annually the
material of gold as an article of home
production, to the amount of more lliau
half a million of dollars,
Should the Government not alter the
value of gold in our coin, the people
who furnish the gold will take care to
coin it for themselves. It is reported
that upwards of two hundred thousand
dollars worth of gold have been coined
in Georgia the present season, in pieces
of two and a half, five, ten, and twenty
dollar ß .
The writer of this article has seen the
coin, which is neatly impressed on one
side, Templteon Heed, Assayer,” and
oil the other side “ Georgia Gold.” No
alloy in the pieces has been detected,
and they pass currently, and are even
sought for in trade. Whatever objec
tions there may be in permitting every
man to coin his own money, there is but
one remedy to prevent it; which is to
alloy the gold down to its standard value,
and to give it freedom of circulation, so
as to destroy tin: object of gain by pro
miscuous stamps.
It is not in the “ Sovereignty” of a
State, or of the United States, to pre
vent a man from possessing or selling a
circular, square or hexagonal ingot of
gold, or of slumping his name, or any
device lie may invent upon it, provided
it does not imitate the usual coin in cir
culatio).; hut such an evil is to he de
precate.d, and it is hoped the remedy now
pending before Congress may he imme
diately adopted. AURUAI.
Ilorrihle Murder. —By the Gettysburg
(Pa.) < ’oinpiler of the 4th, #e receive
the first information of a horrible scene,
resulting in the destruction of a whole
family, which occurred in Frederick
comity, of this state, on the night rif
Thursday last. The dwelling house of J
Mr. John Newey, in liarbaug’s Valley,
Frederick county, was discovered to be
on fne, that night: Its inmates consist
ed of his father-in-law, himself, wife,
three children, and a bound hoy 17 to
18 years of age. When the fire was
first discovered it had made too much
progress to be subdued ; and those who
first arrived at the scene, in looking in
to ihe consuming house observed that
Mr. Newey was lying on the floor with
a severe wound on his head, the hotly of”
Mr. Tressler, the father-in-law, was
nearly all consumed, except the bones; j
that of Ihe boy, LnlFert y, about half de- j
sinned ; and the other members of the j
family, ihe mother and children, roast- j
ed in a shocking manner. By great !
efforts, the tied, on which lay the remains
of the mother, was partly rescued from
ihe flames, and was found to he very
bloody The whole scene seemed to
impress on the spectators the conviction ;
that ibis illlated family had been mur
dered and their dwelling then set on fire.
Suspicion was fixed on two men named
King and Nicholas, as the perpetrators, j
The Compiler states that these men had j
been sent to the Maryland Penitentiary I

COM; K ESS.
Tuesday. January 11
In the Senate, yesterday, the Presi
dent announced resolutions Irom the Le
gislature of ihe State of Georgia, in
structing the Senators and requesting the
Representatives from that Slate in Con
gress, to oppose the passage of any laws
ostensibly intended lor the promotion of
internal improvements. Resolutions
were offered hv Messrs. Burnet, Hend
ricks and Kane ; and petitions were pre
sented by Messrs. Smith, ol Maryland,
Livingston. Ellis, Buggies, Marks, and
Dudley. The following hills were read
the third time and passed: the bill for
the relief of Col. James Thomas; the
bill lbi the relief of Joseph E. Sprague;
the bill for the relief of Francis Larche;
and the hill making an appropriation for
tiie extinguishment of Indian titles in
Indiana. In the High Court of Im
peachment sitting for the trial of Judge
Peck, Messrs. William C. Carr, George
11. C. Melludav. Daniel Ileff, Josiah
Spalding, and William Priinin, were ex
amined for the respondent. The depo
sitions of Samuel Merry, John Bent,
and Edward Bates, were lead in evi
dence, and other documentary testimony
w as submitted.
In the House of Representatives, up
wards of fifty petitions and memorials
were presented. After a variety of pri
vate bills aad been reported and acted
upon, Mr. Trezvant, from the Commit
tee on Military Pensions, reported a bill
to amend the existing laws with respect
to the granting of revolutionary pen
sions ; which was read a first and second
time, and referred to a Committee of the
Whole on the state of the Union. Mr.
Doddridge obtained leave of the House
Ibr the Committee oil the District of Co
lumbia, to sit upon the business before
them, on Monday and Tuesday, during
the sitting of the Mouse. The Speak
er presented a number of communica
tions, received by Him from the public
Departments: among which were, one
from tbe Secretary of War, in answer
to a resolution of the House, on the sub
ject of the reports of the public engin
eers—an ahstract of licenses issued to
Indian traders; and one from the Sec
retary of the Treasury, as to the persons
employed i*i that Department, and the
compensation granted to them. The
Speaker also presented a communica
tion, containing certain resolutions of the
Legislature of the State of Georgia, in
relation to internal improvements—
which, on motion of Mr. Haynes, was
laid upon the table, and ordered to be
printed. A number of communications
front the different Depui tments, contain
ing tbe usual annual statements of the
persons employed hi the respective offi
ces, and their compensation, were pre
sented by tiie Speaker, and appropriate
ly disposed of. The bill from the Se
nate to enable the President to extin
guish Indian titles in the State of Indi
ana, was read twice; and, on motion of
Mr. Bell, referred to the Committee on
Indian Affairs. The bill reported by
Mr. McDuffie, from the Committee of
Ways and Means, to reduce the amount
of bounty on pickled fish exported, was
on motion of Mr. lngersoll, postponed
until to-morrow. The bills Ibr the relief
of Aaron and Thomas Fitzgerald, two
brothers, wounded in the service of the
United States, at the battle of Lake
Champlain,jwent through a committee
of the lloukc, and were read a third
time, and passed. The hill for the re
lief of James Monroe, was, on account
of the lateness of the hour, postponed
till this day. The House then took up,
‘on motion of Mr. Drayton, the bill to
I establish an armory on tiie western va
ters, and continued to discuss it'until
their adjournment.
House of Representatives.
Tuesday, January 11.
Mr. Haynes submitted the following
resolution; and remaiked, on offering
it, that, as the subject of it was interest
ing to every part of the community, he
hoped it would not be denied the courte
sy of a consideration.
Resolved, That the Committee of
Ways and Means ho instructed to in
quire into the expediency of reducing
the duty on brown sugar imported into
tbe United States from foreign countries.
M. Haynes asked if lie could have
an opportunity to modify the resolution,
before the question of consideration was
put.
The Speaker answered in the affirma
tive.
Mr. Haynes then modified his motion
to read as follows :
Whereas, without a considerable di
minution of revenue, the public debt
will, in a very lew years, be redeemed
and discharged : And whereas, the end
ol republican government is the prosper
ity and happiness of the people: And
whereas, tins end cannot be more cer
tainly promoted than by a system ol
taxation which shall leave the largest
portion of the products of labor in the
pockets ol the people: And whereas,
the necessaries of life should as far as
practicable, be exempted from taxation :
And whereas, brown sugar lias become
an article of great and necessary con
sumption among all classes : And where
as, the present duty on that article, im
ported from foreign countries, bears an
unjust and extravagant ‘proportion to
the original cost in foreign markets:—
And whereas, there is good reason to
believe that the tax collected by the
government upon its importion, amount
ing to one million four hundred and
thirty-four thousand nine hundred and
sixty-one dollars, and eleven cents, is
less than half the sum taken from the
pockets of the people under the opera
tion of the existing duty, the quan'ity
manufactured in the United States with
in the year 1830, having been estimated
at one hundred thousand hogsheads,
equal .to one hundred millions of pounds,
at three cents per pound, protecting du
ly, equal to three millions of dollars—
Resolved, That the Committee of
Ways and Means be instructed to in
quire into the expediency of reducing
the duty on brown sugar imported into
die United States from foreign countries.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.
Ned Strickland must give place this
week to his brother Joe. We will give
him a hearing in our next paper.
A rumour has been for some lime current
that a serious rupture had taken place be
tween the President and Vice President. It
will be recollected that during the I’residen- j
Pal contest of 1825, Air. Calhoun and Ids >
friends sided vvilh Gen. Jackson, not from
an) attachment to his person nr measures,
but to weaken the claims of Air. Crawford,
who was then considered the most formida
ble obstacle t<s the promotion of Mr. Cal
houn. During the administration ol Mr ,
Monroe, the Secielary of War (Mr. Cal-j
boon) strongly urged the propriety ot ar- j
resting Gen. Jackson, ami bringing him to j
a Court inarlial, for bis conduct at Peiisaco
la, hut Ids proposition wav overiulcd by hi>
colleagues, and nothing more was said on i
the subject. The General has lately sus- j
peeled tbe agency Ids quondam supporter (
look in this alt'uir, and Ids suspicions have j
been confirmed by the result of a cones- |
pondence with Mr. Crawford. Mr, Cal- 1
iioun defeated Mr. Crawford's claims lo the j
Presidency, and Ids machination a have been
tbe means of creating strife and dissections i
between those whose policy and interest |
should have been one and (lie same. ‘1 lie j
dilemma in which this Protean Politician,
has placed himself, is an awkward one, hiid
lie may yet find lo his cost, lhat ids “ vault
ing ambition has overleaped itself.'’

It will he observed under our Congres
sional Head, that .Mr. Haynes has renewed
Ida motion for the consideration of a reso
lution for reducing the duties on Sugar.—
lids article has become one more ut neces
sity Ilian of luxury, and as domestic compe
tition is smull, compared with the consump
tion, it is to be hoped Congress will reduce
a tuxal-on which bears heavily on the poor.

COTTON MARKET.

of last week—Cotton has ranged from
7to £4. .1 few bulcs of very fine have
brought 9.
Savannah, Jan. 15.
COTTON—Since our last report
there lias been a fair demand for Up
land, and the sales ol the week will
reach about 2000 bales at a reduction of
1-1 to 3-8 ct. on last weeks quotations
—principal sales 9 1-1 a 9 1-4. The
quantity pressed on the market at ptes
ent, is large, considering the stock 011
kand ; and although our accounts horn
Liverpool are considered favorable, hol
ders have no confidence in them, and
are w illing to realize even at a reduc
tion. We quote 8 1-2 alO 1-4 cts. Ju
sea Islands small parcels sell at 18 a 22
cts. and upwards for fancy brands.
Charleston, Jan. 17.
The principle sales, during the week,
were from 9 1-4 to 9 3-4 cents-—but
choice lots arc still held at our highest
rate, 10 1-2—and in one instance 104
cents was paid Ibr a very superior oar
cel ; but similar quality is so seldom
seen in our market, that it cannot be
put in the range of our quotations. The
better qualities have a decided prefer
ence with the huyeis. It seems, how
ever, to he generally admitted, that in
most descriptions of the article, there is
a slight depression below what it would
have commanded the week previous.—
The receipts of the week are put down
at 835 bales Sea Island, and 65(18 bales
of Upland Colton.
