The official paper of today eoutaiiii only an article, to assure the pub lic that IrmPpliliiy prevailed at Lyons, but uol ono Word as to the purposes of the tioveminent. Meanwhile that city is still in the Inmdr of theop- vrativei, while troops nro inarching on it from ;vcrv part of France. The cabinet, it is kuown, nscmlde daily to deliberate on this matter. All •;in«s Jeml to the belief, that it is intended to gain •issessiou of the city by force of arms, and that aa eotieessiou will he made. It is said by Gov ernment men, that life ministry will resort to .«e- vrrr clemency, that is, they will cater Lyons uncon ditionally; and in arms, und that after that clem ency will have its turn. A general amnesty will, ; is added, ha granted, excepting three or four in dividuals, who will he surrendered to execution. Two couriers arrived yesterday tit the olliee of forefca affairs—one from St. i'etenhurgli, the o- ther front Vienna. If tvenre not misinformed, it would seem that (lie despatches of one of those Couriers had special reference to-die expedition .of Don i’edro again .t D.in Miguel. The Kuisiuu mid Austrian cuhiuets zealously, it is said, insist that tlw expedition shall not take place, and are even remonstrating against' it with France and England, svho desire that it sbouhlbe undertaken.

So long ns tney confined themselves to persons tvhn had none to look after them, no great alarm was felt or notice taken of the m tiler. Rut of late this horrid traffic lias not been con fined to tho outea-ts of sock ty.

Mr. Mooro docs not hesitato.to stnto that tho '•cholera was raging in Smyrna to a very frightful oxteut, aud probable tho disease had ttevor been more fatal iu any city where it has existed. From forty deaths a-day, the tiumhcr had increased tu SOU daily. At Constantinople tho diseaso was abating. A letter was received m Smyrna a few days before tho Curlew sailed, &<uu uu English surgeon in •tho persian army,-stating that toe cholera was anakiug most dreadful ravages iu that country.

There was some danger yesterday of a gener al discussion of tho Tariil policy being brought mi, in the consideration of u resolution offered by .Mr. Adams, from tho Committee on Manufac tures, calling fur information concerning tho quan tity and value of manufactures, and fur sugges tions con tertii tig tlio adjustment of the Tariil', af ter tho payment of the public debt. I say “dan ger," because such discussion would, hi my opiu- iou, he premature, pending inquiries for facts ne cessary for the obtniuim-iit of correct views.— The temperate and judicious interference of Mr. M’Dufiie. had considerable effect iu checking this discussion at its onset; Mr. Carson, consenting to withdraw an amendment which ho had offered, and tho effect of whit It would have been to in volve the House in such a discussion. i believe some vigorous attempt will be speed ily made to bring before the Semite the subject of the dissolution of the Cabinet, with a view to the lull discussion of. tho causes which led to that extraordinary circumstance. 'It is hoped that if this discussion should take place, it w ill be with open doors, so that the people limy ho informed of all which may transpire, it is generally ho- tieved that tho rcasous which produced tho ex plosion of the Cabinet, are yet but imperfectly un derstood. They ought to lie fully known; for it would be obviously improper to leave the histori ans of our times to grope amid.-t darkness aud ob scurity to find materials, when it is iu the power and the province of thoso who aro the prominent actors in tlio great scenes of the day, to have the mystery cleared nway, and every fact developed to the eye of tho world. The fate of a proposi tion to discuss tho subject may bo doubtful, hut it is probable, I think, tl;at but a few days will c- lapse, before tho effort will ho tnndoiu somu form or other; and if tho Anti-Jackson strength shall lie concentrated on the question, the measure will doubtless prevail, and tho disclosure of facts will speedily follow, cither to tho Senate iu con clave, or through the Senatototho world. . Another important debate will speedily be pressed on both Houses. I mean tho question of tho renewal of tho charter of the Utiited States’ Rank. I understand that iu a few days, perhaps even this day, Mr. Renton proposes to offer reso lutions denying tho constitutionality, and declar ing the mir.onstitu'iiniiility of tho measure. I do not know whether tho object of introducing this resolution is to anticipate tho debate which is to be expected on the hill itself; but it is doubtful whether tho friends of tho Rank will suffer them selves to bo drawn iuto a discussion now, which would ho more proper when tho hill itself shall couto before Congress. The delay will uot be long, ns I have reason to believe; a bill will be re ported iu every way comportabie to tho known wishes of n great majority of tlioso who under stand tho operations of the Eiink, und their effect on tlio general prosperity of tho couutry; and Unit it will ho pushed through the two Houses with as much celerity us would ho judicious, iu order to discover what may ho the course which tho Pre sident may think proper lopurstto, ii\ relation to its signature. 1 have no doubt that he would ve to any bill, which docs uol contain soiuo import ant modifications, at least important enough to givo him a pretty strong justification for abandon ing his old opinions. Should he return tho l.’.l with his veto, I ant of tho opiuion that it would alienate from him tho votes of tho Northern States, without which ho has no moreclmnco to be elected again, than to be chosen King of Great Rritain. . A great Uncertainty still hangs overtbo futo of Mr. Van Rtircn’s nomination. Rut, if 1 may bo permitted to cxpresl an opinion, it is that ho will he rejected. Next wcok will probably decide this question, concerning which there is n deep nuxic- ty .pervading the public mind. It is mu'.'Mood that tho officer* of tho Government betray tlio grcatcstihitcreri, and it is scarcely doubtful that every experiment willbo made ou the firmness of tlioso wbo nro known to bo opposed to .Mr. Van Ruren.—Correspondence of the Charleston Court- W.whisotux, Jan. 21. In the Senate, yesterday, Mr. Renton intro duced bis resolutions relative to the illegality of tho issues of the notes of tlio United States Rank; and Mr. Clay offered a resolution calling on the Secretary of the . jeasury for information on the suljcit of tho Treasury fur information on tho subject of tho construction of tho revenue laws. The debate on granting leave for the introduction of Mr. Renton’s resolution, lasted till five o’clock, when tho questiou was taken by ayes and Does, and rtjreteii, 25 to 10. Ill tho llouso of Representatives, tho ccusidcr- nfion of tha resolutions offered hy Mr. Eouldiu, was resumed, hut not concluded, the hour having expired.

Ou Alonday last, an unfortunate meeting, com monly known by the name of an affair of honor, took place near Fort Alitcliell, between General Sowell Wonlfnlk and Major Joseph T.'Camp, which terminated in the death of tho former.— Can.

No matter how liijrh and respectable in society—How surround ed with fi ieuds—How closely united aud neces sary to tho pence and comfort—yea, even the necessity of. a wife and family—How useful and important to the State, all must bow before the uiiiclenliug tyrant.

Jan. 23. The debate in the House of Delegates is not yet brought to a close. Sir McDowell of Rock bridge' delivered his views upon the question on Saturday, iu favor of some plan of manumission. When he sat down, Mr Campbell of Rrooko rose to say, that he was anxious to address the House, but being ou the sanio side with Mr Ale Dowell, he would prefer some gentleman ou the other si.-lo to proceed with the discussion, lie would yield tho floor for that purpose—but no one offering, Air C. moved to lay the resolutions on the table, which was carried by a smalt ma jority.

The Liverpool cotton market remained in the same dull state, us uoticcd in our former report; nnd ns the mlviees received there, at that period, from this country, represented tho growth of cot ton in the United States, in 1831, to have been nt leant 1,100,000 bales, with an excess of tho old crop in this country, compared with tho stock of the previous year, ou tho 1st of October, of about 100,000 bales, there was littlo, if any, prospect of an immediate improvement in prices. Holden of cotton manifested a disposition to press .sales, aud tlio conscqticnco was, that iu some instances, a reduction of an Jd wns submit ted to. Tho sales, of tho week were 14,300 bales —imports 0,040. The imports of cotton into Liverpool, from tho 1st January, 1831, to 1st December, were750,000 hales, against 730,000 during the same period tho previous season. Or Americau cotton, there ap pears to have been no difference in the imports during the first eleven months of each year, being 537,000 bales. It is probable that the imports of cotton into Liverpool, during tho month of De cember, 1331, were considerably less than during tlio corresponding mouth of the previous year. Tlio advices from JInvrc, of 2d December, re present cotton ns being rather ou tlio decline.— \Ve givo the following extract of a letter, dated December It "Our present stock is reduced to 14,000 bales, but prices have declined, during the last two days, 1 to lj centimes, on United States short staple."—Augusta Chronicle.

The arrival ot the Criterion out, is thus noticed in the paper of the latest date: Arrival of the, expedition.—It is with much pleasure wo announce the safe arrival of the brig Criterion, with forty-five emigrant*, after a pas sage of 87 days. They aro all in good health.— Among them aro the Rev. Air. Cesar aud Lady, members of the Episcopal church. We are further pleased to learn that Airs. Cesar comes out under the patronago of a few Indies of Philadelphia, as an instructress; nud ns it is also Air. Cesar’s intention to teach a school, we should he proud to learn thatsomo benevolent individuals iu tlio United States bail extended nu open Imud towards him also. Our friends in America can hardly conceive tho great need wo stand in of nUo instructors, nud the many openings which daily offer for tho labors of teachers. Little Basca.—Whit new Spain was to the old, and North Caroliua at tho preseut day is to speculators from the Northern States, is Little Rassa to our citizens. It is our land of promise not abounding in gold or silver, but in tho far more useful commodity, Camwood. The Reach is lined with Liheriaus of nil ages, from twclvo to fifty-years, eager in tho pursuit of trnflic; and in tho acquisition of Camwood; mid it is astonishing what littlo time is necessanr to qualify even the youngest to drivo ns hard n bar gain as any roving merchant from the land of steady habits, with bis assortment of tin ware, nutmegs, books, or dry goods. Here the simile ends, for it is to be wished that our Liberians would follow their prototype in the mother coun try, throughout, aud bo as careful iu keeping ns in acquiriug. Tho Liberian is certainly a great man, and what is more, by the natives he is considered n whito man, though many degrees from that stan dard; for to he thought acquainted with tho whito mail’s fashions and to be treated as ono, aro con sidered as marks of great distinction, among tho BassAs and other nntions. Littlo Rassa belongs to King Tom Rnssa, whose wars wo have often laid before our read ers, nnd if reports nro true, the contending par ties arc cnch preparing for uiiotbcr effort as soon ns the waters fail somewhat.

Natasteuoor pillar remains of this mighty man’s wealth, and the only articlo which was pointed not to us, ns. his, was a large iron pot from which his slnvcs received their pitiful allowance of rice. Wo were told that there were two, but that Tom Uus- sa in Ills last war with Boatswain broke up tlio oilier forshot, audit hr very likely this will short ly share its fate. It is really astonishing how in- lutunted the natives are on tho subject ot the slave trndo, und even during our short stfiy, gregrecs wore daily nindo for tlio appearance ol n shiver to enrich the coffers of tho Kiug ond headmen; hut if wo auger truly, mmiy day* will elapse ho- fore another seats himself as securely as did Dan Aliguel on the bench. Of n truth, wc know it would bo risking too much, siuco tho destruction of Thompson and tlio Messurado.
