RE PUB Li C A A SAVANNAH, Apr l 22, ISO 6. REVOLUTION IN HARTFORD. IT is worthy of note, that the city of Hartford, (late of ConnedJcut, has heretofore been reprcfented in her City Council, by meu whose principles were federal—we now fee the face of politics reversed in that city. It is a notorious fa&, that the under named gentlemen have long since tfpoufed those principles which lead to freedom and good order- This ftrideof Republicaniftn far exceed* our moft sanguine expeditions. We may (hortly exped a llatement of their state eledion—and, we 11 > uld not be surprised if it terminates i.i favor of a Republican representation. Perhaps, there is no date in the union, in which there is more electioneering squibs play* ed off than in Connedicut—the papers are generally crowded with them a month previous to the eledion—incivi duals lose no time in securing votes for their party. Long has Connedicut flood in the foremolt racks of fideralifm ; long has (lie boailed of her afeendenev over republicaniftn—her leaders have boldly asserted, that the fun of federal ifm continues to shine more brilliant; but, we think its bril'ianry will soon fade—it has arrived at its rfieredian—it begins to fet—federalifm fejms to tot ter—we difeover fnmething that makes it tremble to its foundation. The editor of the Connedicut Cou rant, endeavors to palliate tor this flride of n, by faying, that “ Fe dera'ijls had rather life ,m elt’Rion th ;n he at the trouble of going meeting, there being more than Jixty federal freemen be. longing to the city , who no te not prrf nt It's natural fora partv, when over come, to extricate themfdves on the moll favorable terms—we, however, do not think it confident to suppose that ,l Jixty federal freemen,” would have con tented themfdves at home on the day of an eledion in the city of Hittford ; a day of an eleftion, in confiJered in that place a holy-day—they ?re generally ve* ry aftive on fu :h occcfi ins.

HO USE of REPRESENTATIVES. IVednefday, April 2. Fit. jf. Randolph ffated that an un .'erltanding had taken place between the nimtlcr of the public treasury, as to the payment of claims of American citizens, generally called Bordeaux embargo claims (the payment of which had heretofore t en ftifptndid) hy which it was agreed ih it payment (hould be made at the treasury of the United States. Under extiling provisions, ibis authority did not atch to th- treasury. He had, therefore, been ’ t-v ’ lr.’ttfe of wayD and means, to present a lil to give this power. He according ly offered a bill supplementary to the ad m kmg provision for the payment of claims, of certain citizens of the H j States on the government of Fiance, which was referred to a committee of the whole. Mr. Farntim reported from the com mittee appointed to enquire into such measures as it is expedient to adopt for the complete arming of the militia of the Hinted States, giving a very interesting detail of the extent to which the mili tia are at present armed, by which it ap. pears that there are in the hands of the militia 250,000 fire arms, and 120,000 in the public magazines of the Hinted States. The report recommends an additional appropriation of 61,000 dol lars toward the matiufafture of arms ; which was fubfcquently introduced in the military appropriation bill. The house took up the unfiniffied bu siness of yeftercay, being the report of the committee of the whole, agreeing to the following resolution offered by Mr. sh. Randolph. 3d. Resolved, That provision ought to be made, by law, to render an officer, in the armv or navy of the united States, incapable of holding any civil office un der the H S. Mr. Fisl moved to postpone this re solution indefinitely. This motion was supported by Mcffrs. Fish, Elmer, and Cook ; and oppoled by Mcffrs. J- day , J. Randolph , aud J. C. Smith ; When the question was taken by yeas and nays, and the motion disagreed to— Teas 4.3 —Nays 72.

This unfortunate intelligjncr was con veyed to him on the 7th inst. by a loiter, dated the 1 7th of last month, from the general’s Colleague, the lion. Abtahatn Baldwin, in the following words “ The diftrefiing talk, which my let “ ters have so long led you to txpeft, “ is at length enforced upon me, ot an “ noun ing to you the death of my be “ loved and much refpefted Colleague “ General Jackson. I have been wirh “ him all night, arid elofed his eyes just “ at the dawning of the day. “ It is now more than twenty years “ since wc have bten intimately aflocia “ ted in the duties of public life. A “ part of the duty which I feel to he left “ to me is, to declare, that in ftcrling “ integrity, and honest devotion to pub “ lie good 1 have itever found his lupe “ tior.” Death has bereaved the state of a Ge neral and a Statesman, who was no less valient in the field, than eminent in the cabinet. During our revolutionary war in the days 0} peril, he exerted his utanoft powers in defence of his country’s rights, and performed afts of heroifm— and in her councils both at home and a btoad he advanced and supported the in tercfl of the state with Item integrity, undaunted perseverance, perspicuity of mind and flow of eloquence. So great were his public virtues that, from an early part of his life, he held the firll and molt dillingiufhed appointments, both civil and military, in the gift of his state. Toatteft thelofs Georgia has fullain ed by the death of her beloved general and patriotic and able statesman, who yielded up his last breath from home and in the service of his country, and to manifeft the estimation in which his worth and services are held by a grateful peo ple, the commander in chief ORDERS, a'l officers in military commission be longing to this state, and requests the civil officers thereof, and the citizens in general to wear crape round the left arm for the space of fix weeks, to commence on the ill day of May next.
