The s uni* paper of tiie 31st furnishes
the fallow nig article :
“We have two more Bulletin# from the
Crown Prince. They give, as his Bulle
tin# always do, a clear narrative of ope-
rations.— There was a good 'leal ot se
vere flighting between the Swede# and
Danes before the latter retired across the
Eyder, and demanded an armistice, ll
w as only for a forioiglil,nod would expire
on Wednesday, if Denmark did not, in
the interval, accept the conditions propo
sed to her One of these is that she
shall join the allies, ft is probable that
she has accepted them. Meanwhile the
Crown Prince is pushing on his opera
tion# against Hamburg. Hamburg un
doubtedly has been much strengthened,
though it is still far from being a regular
fortification, anti requires at least forty
thousand men to defend it for any length
of time. Davoust. since the separation of
(lie Danish force, has not, we think, much
above half that number.
It i> said that the crown prince has sent
him a summons to surrender, and that
Oavotisi has expressed l is willingness to
evacuate the place upon condition of be
ing permitted to retire to France with his
army Such a condition of course will
be rejected. Bonaparte, who has a par
ticular Inti red against Hamburg, is report
ed lo have given orders to Davoust to
destroy the city before he ah .unions it —-
There can he hut little doubt of Davoust
being disposed to obey this or any other
inhuman order I"* may receive. But there
i- one consideration of rather an important
nature, which piay have some weight with
him. He may not he aide to make his
escape after ke has obeyed his master;
he might he caught and hanged: a fate
wht..h fie woald richly deserve.

HOUSE OK REPRESENTATIVES.
THURSDAY, MARCH 24.
YAZOO CLAIMS.
The House resumed the consideration
of the unfinished business, being the kill
from the Hctiate for the indemnification
of certain claimants to land in the Mil*
sissippi territory
Mr. Nelson of Va. redeemed hi# pledge
yesterday given to op^«Fthis hill. He
perceived,;he said- tin Total inability of
tiny effort to stem the torrent now sitting
in favor of this measure; hut he could
not consent that this bill should pass
without some remarks from him against
it. lie proceeded to take the legal view
of the question, nml laid down the pi'in*
"ipie, that the rights of sovereignty of a
nation were not examinable by its su
bordinate agents ; the sovereign nutho-
r. y had no; power to jiinge the rights of
'!•<• sovereign who created them : that the
Supierne Court could not decide against
l' <" rights oft! «■ United Stales, Kc. be
cause if it ontd, the creature would be
paramount lo the creator. Tlmt a con
veyance originating in fraud was void
ah initio between iudividuaJy, and much
mnri in a ease where a state is concern
ed : that the legislature had not power toy
transfer property which appertained to the
sovereignty,and, having transcended their
powers, the sale was void, were, it ever
so fair and honest a sale. Mr. N. spoke
about an hour, in a strain of indignant
feeling,against the bill.
Mr Latimore of Mississippi follow'd,
n a speech of considerable length a id
earnestness, in favor of the hill. Re con
sidered the decision of the Hnpreme Court
’is disturbing the titles of the puii lmser*
from Georgia. W liunever the titles
nme to be tried, he was convinced the
present claimants would make good a le-
;; l liile to the laud, and succeed ine-
jecting the p'esent settlers. Under this
impr ssion, lie sfroiuly argued the expe
diency of settling the#! claims whilst it
was in the power of th- government to
do so by a compromise. The title of
the claimants, it had been very often said,
had originated in fruutl. lit admitted
it; hill the supreme Couil had decided
on the legality of their title. ^He wa*
sorry for it ; but he was bound to act ou
i-in uinstanees not os he wished but as he
found ihim
Mr hunison of Va. opposed the bill
very tie idt lly on the grounds heretofore
seen pied, viz. The frauti of the original
t r n- Actions, the fa I lacy of t lie i c. suiting
and error of judgment of the Supreme
Court ; tiie slender title of the present
claimants to the charity, and their want
of< lain* on the justice of the government,
If th s bill were lo pass. pro
nounced tint in the eyes and estimation
of posterity the Thirteenth Congreas
would In' coupled with the YczouLegis
lature of Georgia— and for his part he
protested against this sanction to corrup
tion, this compromize with fraud.
Mr Stanford ofN. C. opposed the bill
in u short speech.
Mr. Latimove of Miss, suhmittqd a
few remarks in reply to Mr. Stanford.
After some explanatory conversation
between Mr. Yancey and Mr. Gholsoo,
the hitler of whom had been misunder
stood iu u remark lie made ou this sub-
j.'Ct—
Mr. Yancey of N. C. slated concisely
the reasons which governed him in voting
for the bill. lie should support its pax-
sage from a belief in its present expedi
ency, and not from any view to sanction
the original corruption of the Yazoo
speeu Uil ion.
Mr. (Fright of Md. offered a few ad
ditional remarks, and
Mr. Alston of N. C. said a few words
iu explanation of u fact which had been
uih.ded to. when •
The question whs taken on the motion
to postpone the bill indefinitely, aud de
