COMMUNICATED. MISSPLACIDE’S BENEFIT. ■ VYe gladly seize the opportunity thus early of Rticing Miss Plaeide’s benefit. It is very inter, ■tieg to contemplate a young female, possessed ■ accomplishments and character, presenting Brself before the public in the probationary Bge of her professional career. An age since, Hd such a circumstance would have become Be subject of deep regret, either to a father or Brother; but thanks to the rigid virtue of a [ Slddons—to the exemplary conduct of a Farren — Bd to themnimpeachable manners of a Bolton, Bd an O’Neil, the English stage is now no long- B considered as the charnel-house of female pu- By.—Still it is an ordeal of no common degree. ■Although by the nightly audiences which go Bther merely in quest of amusement, it is as- Bciatcd with pleasurable feeling, it is to the per- Brner the scene of toil, of anxiety, and often of Hious disappointments ; sometimes the audi- Hce is not of a class to recognize, much less to Bvard the spirited and judicious attempts of an Bor to do justice to his author; and at other the performer himself, from the ennui of Hietition, from the inertness which a continua ■n of unsuccessful efforts, infallibly brings on, the necessity of appearing in parts not snit- Bo his powers, and a variety of other untoward becomes in an early period of if, with his professional life, We wish subject oi these remarks to be exempt these “ miseries of the Stag e.” Ht may be expected from what precedes, that Iw| should become the warm eulogists and de- of this lady’s qualifications for a pio so ardyous and a life so toilsome. We prefer leaving every tiling of this sort to I tbi judgment and just decision of the public, at I se tribunal she lias placed herself; being ner- W<y aware that declamatory and common place Bmgue, wiia'ever they do with the “ground “make the judicious grieve.” But as a total silence on tills subject may pro- B effects very different from the writer’s aim, I'B °nly doing Miss Placide common justice to H that her ear is very good, and that she is Himcally correct in the science of music.— B bravura might at the same time, be materi ved by practice and good models. In •performance of speaking parts, although her Bution does not appear to have received suf- B r - attention, yet good taste leads her to avoid of passion without feeling it; or Bta usully called runt.r —And her carriage in comedy, does her more than a little cre- M the article of usefulness, her claims are ir ■Bfhble . as her name may be seen upon every Hf'bill that has been issued. We wish her Hpily and warmly, the most complete success Rife benefit; and we will say further, we think deserving of it T. COMMUNICATION. t j Honor to whom Honor is due.

Resolved, That the Secretary of the treasury he directed to lay before this house a statement shewing in what banks the mo ey received from the sale of the public lands have been deposited since the Ist ut January 1818; the contracts under which said deposits have been made; the corres pondence between them and the treasury department relative thereto; the amount of deposits that were to be left in each, in consideration of taking charge of the bal ance of the money deposited; whether in a ny instance the deposits allowed for that purpose have been increased, and why such r,.crease has been allowed ; together with copies of the statements of their situation, l furnished to each departments for the last twelve months preceding such increase, as well as the last trine of making them banks of deposit; whether any of those banks have faaiied to comply with their engage ments, and to what amount; what meas ures have been taken in consequence there of to secure the government against any losses resulting fiom such failure ; what those measures have been, and at what ex penses ; whether in any instance uncut rent or depreciated paper lias been received from them or any of them, which the gov ernment was not bound to ieceive, by any agreement between such banks and the said secretary ; and whether any further measures are necessary to be adopted by congress, to provide for the transmission of the public money from the different receiv ers to a more safe place of deposit, and, if; if 9“, which plan is most admirable On motion of Air.

Mr. Wright followed, who submitted a few remarks on the same side of the ques tion, — When he had concluded— On motion of Mr. Dwight, the commit tee rose and obtained leave to sit again; although considerable opposition to grant ing leave, was manifested by the House. —Adjourned. U. S. Bank Stock sold yesterday at 113, dividend off. Extract of a falter from a genlfevuui in Monte Video, to a friend in Portsmouth. (fa) ” Mote Video, Oct. 12th. We have had, ever sine my arrival here, a report of the fall of Lima. That report is now confirmed, the official account hav ing reached this place, by letters from General San Martin to the Directors of Chili and Buenos Ayres. The General states that the Royalists evacuated the city early in July, but that a number remained in the Castle of Callao, which he calculated on dispersing in a short time. The King’s men, residing in this place, think that the evacuation of Lima by their party, is noth ing more than a military Ruse de Guerre and that ere long the city will again be in their hand. They say that the extreme want of provisions compelled them to aban don the city, and that as soon as ihey get a supply, (being more pouerful in numbers than the Insurgents.) they can easily re take their possessions San Martin is an old hand at the bellows, and I doubt very much whether he is to be deceived so easi ly. If this be so, time alone will deve lope. The government of Buenos Ayres appear so be coming to their senses. Aware of the depredations commited by Priva teers sailing under their flag, and aware also that their reputation must suffer from such abuses, they have determined to grant no more commissions. They have even further, and have recalled all those hith- i ei to granted. This is a very popular mea sure. Buenos Ayre has, for a long lime, been a complete rendezvous for privateers men, and in fact, for men of infamous char acters, robbers, murderers, ike. ami mas ters of vessels that ranaway with their em ployer’s property always found there an asylum. But now the scene is changed, <icd l think Si uth America, particularly ! Chili and Buenos Ayres, is in a fsirer way! than ever. God send them a speedy re cognition of their independence.” Baltimore, Jan. 10. The following intelligence is extracted form a letter received at Annapolis by the! schooner Mary ami Ann, Captain Gates, arrived there in 14 days from Aux Caves. “ Port au Prince, Dec. 17. “ You have no doubt ere this heard of *he energetic measures taken by the Presi dent to compel the inhabitants to industry —he has giveu orders throughout the re public to put the whole military force in requisition to enforce bis orders that eveiy planter should cultivate all hi* plantations to their full extent.
