Mr. B right from the Finance Committee has reported in the Scnato of tho United States, a bill to alter and ninend the TarifT. This bill proposes a reduction of the duties on imports that h is estimated will diminish the revenue ahont 2,400,000. It repeals the duties ou salt and coal. Mr. Van Buren has left the chair of the Sen ate. and Mr. King of Alabama, has been elect ed President of that body. The papers from Florida contain no accounts that will authorise us to specify tho actual loca tion of the thentre of war. The Withlacoochce, the Walton Swamp, and the Everglades, have successively been represented ns the strong holds of O.eola and his forces. The latest account we find in the Floridian of the 28th ult. That paper says “On yosterduv about 1 o’clock in the day time, three large wagons, loaded with dry goods, flour and salt, were way-laid l>> six Indians, abuut eight miles from this place—taken about a mile from the road, the mules taken out, and tho contents of the wagons packed upon them in sacks found in the wngons, ami with three no- grues, the drivers, carried olf towards the peninsula.— There were fifteen mules taken. This information is derived from one of tho negro drivers, who eeenped. Tieeriail it is supposed, was ut the head of this party. Our city is alive with the call Ioanns. The Indians were painted, nod hnd several rifles.” Since writing the above wo have received hy the Express Mail from the nilico of the Mobile Mercantile Advertiser, dated on the 2d instant, the following: Important from Florida.—The steamboat Champion, Copt.

The intel ligence is tlmtthe celebrated Indian, called Jumper, mid the negro Ahrnhain,have been captured; and tiint Oseola liimself hnrely made his esenpe, with only live followers, in the direction of the south, General Jesup was making every eflbrt for the cuptore of the hold and persevering Chief. The Jamaica papers complain of the grent scarcity of lawyers. It seems there has been for some tiino past hut one gentlcinnn of the le gal profession there, and he acted as Solicitor General.

Tho Jury we appre hend must have been a sharp sot of fellows, par ticularly when they brought ill verdicts uf acquit tal. A war is anticipated between Grent Britain mill the Republic of Ncw-Grenada. Tho Brit ish Vice Consul nt I'annmn, made an assault on a citizen, nud judicial notice was taken of the affair. The Vice Consul was thrown into pri son. The British Government domnnds his release, the removal of the functionaries con cerned in the imprisonment, and tho payment of one thousand pounds sterling as an indem nity to the officer. An attempt has been made in the New York Legislature, to confer upon the free negro, equal privileges with the white man. \Y r e liavo ex tracted the proceedings of that body on the sub ject. The abolitionists, it seems, are taking high ground. Will the South be warned ?

Sir: The Indians nre committing depredations and murdering the citizens in the edition of this country near the Bnrhour line, not far from Fort Watson. On the 26th instant, they murdered Lew is Pnffh and some of his negroes. Yesterdny our citigens hnd tYvo engagements with them, and were defeated with tho loss oftwo men killed. It is not known whether any Indians were killed. Please to make this knoYvn to tho citizens of Montgomery. The Indians estimated at from thirty to fifty, J In haste, A. C. STILLMAN. The Indians committing the above foul murders, doubtless are n portion of those who were left in the friendly camps, until the return ofthn Wnrriors from Florida. A gentleman of respectability in our town yesterday, who resides in the vicinity of the scenes of bloodshed, is of opinion, that a considerable force of the Floridn Indians have come up and joined the disaffected Creeks. From the Boston Atlas. MR. VAN BUREN A MINORITY PRESIDENT. We stated some time since, that Mr. Vnn Buren would come into power, as a minority President— and that, deprived of the vast popular strength which has given General Jackson turli eminent ability for mischief, he would he compelled to sustain his ad ministration by a watchful deference to the opinions ‘of Congress, and some slight regard to the views and wisliesof the Opposition. The Jackson press es immediately charged us with the assertion of false hood, and some of them went so far ns to say not only tin* Mr. Van Buren would linve a majority of the popular votes, hut that his majority would he ns large ns that of General Jackson. We have now before us the official returns from all the States, and no one can examine them intelligently without com ing to the inevitable conclusion—not only that Mr. Van Buren lias no strength with the People—hut thnt a considerable majority of the voters of the Union are, at this moment, opposed to his elevation. We will premise with a reference to tho popular vote by which General Jackson was twice elevated to the Presidency. The aggregate popular vote in the election of 1828. was as follows: Jackson, 6*27,‘260 Adams, 507,956 ligem honesty will admit it to he so. Our nssuinp- ions with regard to both of these States are based upon the average votes of the two parties, since the question of Van Burenisin or No Van Burenism has been agitated. So in regard to New York. In 1834, the Whigs brought out their full strength In that State. Then Buren majority for Governor was 12,8S2. 1 us is the renl Van Buren majority in that State ; when both parties are fully represented nt the Polls. . * V^idential« Vctinn, there was a great full ing off in the votes of both parties—the whole Van Bureii'Vnte being less than the Whig vote for Gov ernor m 1834—and the apparent Van Buren majori ty being 28,272. The Marry vote of 1834, we aa- siinic as the true test of the Van Buren strength in New York—nnd the difference between this and the \ an Buren vote of 1836. must be tnken from the ap parent Van Huron majority in the Central States, to give us the actual position of parties in thnt section of the eouiitrv. Apparent V. B. mnj. in Central Stntes, 27,824 Less hy the difference of Vote of1834 &’3G, 15,380 Actual V. B. mnj. in the Central States, 12,444 The vote of the Western States is n ft ir test of the party strength in that section, and requires no expla nation or comment. In the Southern States, we shall tav nothing of the vote of North Carolina— though the result of the Gubernatorial election fur- nisliel, we doubt not, the true index to the senti- menu of the State. Our friends lost North Caroli na though supineness or over confidence.—The S ipu nr mnjority in South Carolina against Mr. Vnn urei we assume nt only 25,000 votes. As the vote of (lit Legislature wns unanimous against him, we might fairly set down the entire popular vote of the State for the Opposition. There is no such tiling as Van Burenism known in South Carolina. The number of votes cast hy her citizens in the election of the Legislature in 1832, wns about 39,000. Both pni ties—all the voters—in the State-—Union-men and Nullifies—are opposed to Mr. Van Buren—Imt we set down the majority in the State at only 25,000. Every *me must allow thnt in the circumstance* of the rase, this is a liberal estimate for Mr. Van Bu ren. We believe then thnt on the best data extant for estimating the relative strength of pnrties, in differ ent sections of the country, the result would he ns follows; Ami-Van Buren majority in New England, 1,214 do do Jo the West, 24,844 do do do the South, 12,892 Jackson's majority in 1828, In the election of 1832 ; Jackson, Clay nud Wirt, 119,304 707,217 583,281 Jackson's mnjority, 123,936 Here is an indication of something like popular strength. On both elections Jackson received a ma jority of above 119.000 votes. In this estimate the vote of South Carolina is entirely omitted. On the second election it might redm e the above aggregate some several thousand votes—but enough remains to prove thnt General Jackson was emphatically the man of tho People's choice—and that he might ap peal to his vast popularity in support of any measure which he might sec fit to fasten upon the Country.

It is evident that no true estimntcVan he made of this election without considering the popu lar vote of South Carolina—nnd to this wc can only approximate. As Mr. Van Buren has no party in tnat State, it would be pci Imps most proper to set down its entire vote against him—hut instead of tak ing 39,000 votes, a* we could with the utmost fair ness, we assume the Opposition mnjority at only 25,000. If we innko the just allowances for the votes of Maine, New Hampshire and New York, for the reasons and on the data assumed »n the above article, it will he obvious to any one, that there is an Anti- Van Burcu majority in the country of more than TWEXTT-S1X THOUSAND VOTES ! Now we defy any one to gainsay the accuracy of these statements nnd calculations. Every intelli gent politician of both parties will perceive their propriety nnd justice, nnd every candid politician will confess their truth. Mr. Van Buren not only lacks the overwhelming popularity of General Jack- son—btlt there is a large mnjority of voters in the country opposed to him. To nil intents and purpos es, he is a Minority President—and the majority ok the People, in despite of him. can exercise their just and legitimate influence on public affairs, THROUGH Til Kin REPRESENTATIVES IN CONGRESS. If the Whig Party arc hut just to themselves and their Cause, they will direct the policy of the Go vernment through a considerable portion of Mr. Vail Boren's Administration. [Correspondence of the Charleston Mercury.] Washington, Jan. 26. 1837. There was a scene last night in the Committee of Investigation, raised upon Reuben M. Whitney's concerns. Whitney was under examination, lie had pursued a vexatious course,—pretending to an swer any legitimate question*, hut cautiously ob jecting to nny querries which iniglu lend to the de- velopemdits sought for. Mr. Peyton of Tennessee, pressed him cloaely on an important point, and Whit ney made a personal and highly insulting remark in reply. Mr. Peyton, losing all patience, drew a pistol, nud would have shot the fellow in a mo ment, had not the members of the Committee in terposed to prevent him—“Thief, scomidrii" said Mr. Peyton, “if you dare to address me in thnt innu- ner again, I will sacrifice you." The Committee took the subject into immediate consideration, nnd to their credit, passed an unanimous Resolution strongly censuring the witness Reuben M. Whitney, who Imd grossly insulted a member of the Commit tee. Whitney then made a formal apology. I had expected some result of the kind, after the impudent nnd insulting card which Whitney published in the Globe, in regard to Mr. Peyton’s statements in the House. The two investigation* will end in nothing, except reports nnd counter reports, concerning the obstacles which were opposed to the investigation. Mr. Wise’s Committee will effect nothing, as he foresaw nud foretold, even before lie was apprised thnt lie was to have a Committee packed upon him. He offers a resolution for enquiry, hy the Committee into this and that subject,—anil tlm six Van Buren members immediately quallify it in such a way as to render it nugntc ry. Col. Almonte left this city this morning for Balti more. The conference between Gen. Santa Anna and the President have been brought to a dose, nud the Mexienn General will immediately take his de parture for Ver;i Cruz. Col. Almonte hns gone lienee to make the necessary arrangements. An order was issued from the Navy Department, at a late hour Inst night, to fit out a vessel of war, to sail immediately. It is probable thnt it is intended to send n special Minister to Mexico, to offer the medi ation of this Government in the controversy between Mexico and Texas, and to permit Generul Santa An na to dcpnrt in the same vessel.

From the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel. THE FAITHLE8S REPRESENTATIVE*. We nsk the particular attention of our readers to the proceedings of Congress, some time since, pub lished in to-day’s paper, on the subject of Abolition. We ask our Georgia renders especially, to scrutin ize the votes of their members in Congress upon the direct question “shall the Abolition petitions he received.” It will he seen hy reference to the yeas nnd nays that Messrs. Cleveland, Grantland, Haynes, and Owens, have all voted directly to receive those abominable petitions, which nre intended to over turn the long established domestic institutions of" the south, rob us of our property, endanger the peace of our firesides, the lives of our families, and the permanency of the Union itself. Hotkey nnd Jackson were absent, the latter sick in Philadelphia, the former wc know not where ! Glascock t.ud Dawson like true 1 representatives of tho South nnd Southern rights, resisted with firmness this flagrant invasion of nil thnt is near ami dear to us. They will meet their just reward ill the cheer ing approbation of their constituents. But the I faithless four, what shall ho their reward ? Cnu they, ought they to he any longer trusted hv a cmifi- , ding people to whose interests, light** and feelings ( they have proved themselves so treacherous? We | call upon the people, tho reflecting people whose interests nre nt «iak«\ and who unchained hy fetters | of party can look with sidieruesa and judgment up- , un such conduct, to put their tnnrk upon the faith- Iom men who have betrayed them in the hmi- of peril. Do these men truly represent the people of Georgia? I* it the desire of the citizen* of this 1 Suite, thnt. their representative* should extend any countenance to the abolitionist* hy voting in Con- i gres* to receive and entertain their petition*? We | think not. But it is for the people to answer! We I »|udl not fail to furnish them with every information i necessary to enable them to decide correctly. Ha- I mii” done that much we shall have discharged our <!«'>'• Legislitfiin* of !\nv Ytrk* Free Negro Suffrage. Mr. C. !L tfltepnril presented tho potion of ' fjcrrii Siiiith and others, to extend the right of splft age without regard to color, and “ to rep#nl • the laws authorizing slavery in tho state of New- Y»rk." Mr. Shepard asked that it might hr read. \ part liming been read hy the Ck rk, Mr. Itohiii'OM moved thnt the further reading * he dispensed with mid that Ilia petition lia oa the tablo ; but at the requestor Mr. S. withdrew his motion, nnd the petition was read. Mr..King moved that the petitiou be denied and rejected. Mr. C Rogers did not understand distinctly wliat the prayer of the petition was. Mr. C. O. Shepard explained. It was to ex tend the right of sufTrngo to the colored popula tion of the State, with no other restrictions than those applicable now to the whites—do repeal the laws (and there were such laws, Mr. S. said; Ruthosizing slavery in the state of New-York— and to iustruct our representatives in Congress to exert themselves to procure a repeal of the laws making it obligatory to yield up a person claimed as n slave, without a trail by jury. Mr. Shepard went at much length into tho merits of these sovernl points, and claimed that the peti tion should':ive. at least. a reference to some committee, anil he treated in all respects as any other memorial which was respectful in its Ian gunge, and which related to matters of such im portance. Mr. Bradish inquired whether the motion was to reject the petition or the prayer o( tho peti tion ! There wns nn important distinction he apprehended between the two—the former being equivalent to n denial of tho right of petition, which ho could not sanction hy his vote, whate ver might he his views of the propriety of gran ting tho prayir of the petition. Mr. King differ red with the gentleman as to the purport of his motion. A petition was sy nonymous with a prayer, and to deny the pe tition. would he to deny the prayer of it. lie (Mr. K.) was satisfied with the language of his motion, but if the gentiemuu was not, il was for him to propose to ninend. Mr. Bradish preferred ilia? tho IIouso should either not acton the petition nt all, or that it should he referred to a select committee. He could not consent to reject the petition almost unheard. Mr. Hackley supported the motion to reject— on the ground thnt the number of coloured peo ple in the State wns too small, even were it deemed expedient m the abstract to put them nn a par with tho whites, to justify a call upon tho whole people to amend the constitution, framed as it hnd been with great deliberation, nud with reference to this very question—thnt laws wheth er in reference to tho reclaiming fugitive slaves or any other matter, ought not to he altered up on every erroneous decision of a judge, as ap peared to he the case alluded to in the petition— tliut slavery did not exist in this State, ns stated in the petition—and that ho was averse to tho agitation of tho general question, to the exclu sion of the proper business of the House, belie ving that the result would he to the injury, rath er tht tetho benefit of the class of persons claim ing to he aggrieved. Mr. Bradish called for the ayes nnd nocs oil tho question of rejection, ami they were or dered. Mr. C. O. Shepard went into nn elaborate ex amination of the laws relative to fugitive slaves, to show that slavery might exist at least nine months in the yenr in this State—that our laws recognized the principle of slavery, &c. &c,. and contended at great length for tho abstract right of the colored man to an equal participa tion with the whites in the elective franchise— reiterating his former claim (as a matter of right to himself and tho petitioners,) to an investiga tion of the whole subject hy a committe of the house. [It appeared from Mr. S.*s statement, that of the 8,000 colored people in the State, there were 034 who paid taxes hut wero debar red tho privilege of voting.] Mr. Thomas followed on the same side,enlar ging particularly on the right of petition—the right of being heard, &c. &c., and contending that to deny this, would he to say that the sub ject matter of it was unworthy the investigation of tho House. Mr. King : The gentleman misunderstands.— The petition was presented with a request that it might ho read. It wu9 received nud read. The house have taken cognizance of the peti tion and must dispose of it, either hy grantiog or rejecting it, now or hereafter. For one, 1 am prepared to act now. From tho spirit with which it has been pressed, we may well antici pate a long and animated discussion, nnd to lit tle purpose. 1 am satisfied with the existing state of things in this *tate ; and with the inter nal a/Fairs of other states 1 conceive we, as mem bers of this house, have nothing to do. Mr. Andrews wns glad the discussion had come up, and he Imped it would have a refer ence, with a view at least to clear up sumo of the obscurities in our election laws. Mr. Buggies moved that the petition lio on the table. Mr. King hoped not. The question wns mainly whether the right of suffrage should he -extended to the blacks. Every member ought to he prepared to meet that question at once. He was opposed to placing the black mail oil a par with the white in this respect; nnd ho was supprised to hear gentlemen wlm were known to act politically with tho 14 native” party, (so •called) which would wrest the right of voting from a mail horn in England, Ireland, Scotland, •or on the continent of Europe—lie was surpris ed, he repeated, to hear the same men now stan ding oat with so much vehemence in favor of ex tending the right of suffrage to the African. He hoped the question would he taken at once and directly on rejecting the petition. Mr. Boggles’ motion to lay on the table was lost, hut 2D rising in tho affirmative.* Mr. Hillycr explained the vote he was about to give. He was opposed to extending the elec tive franchise to blacks, Imt not being acquain ted with the provisions of the law relative to fu gitive slaves, and their alleged deficiency ns re garded the right of trial hy jury, ho preferred that the petition should go to a committee. The question was then taken on Mr. King's motion to reject, and decided ill the affirmative, ayes 76, noes 44, ns follows : Absence of mind.—The last case is that of a Ship Carpenter, who hit off tho end of a copper spike, and drove a ping of Tobacco in the vessel's bot tom.

After that be met Defiance, and •cttled u 4 mile contest nt one bent. And in like manner fulfilled an cugagtMiieiil wi:h a full sister to Carolinian,ut at one heat of -1 mile*. He then run a trial of two miles out with the celebrated Henry,heating him from (il) to 70yards, and making the run, with training slue's on, says nun of tho timer*, in three iiituiile and 43 seconds— perhaps the greatest guilup of two miles since the dnvs of Childress. After that he wu-* entered in a four mile contest Yvith that truly formidable race mare Janette, that won 14out of Ifiraces, and died young. Shewn* nearly allied lo Arab, coming out of his full *i*ter, a id begotten bv hi* father.
