Tho European papeis speak of a Com et that will itp|>c:ir within 60,001) miles of the Earth's orbit, Home limo in the jfcor 1832. If llto earth should happen to be in dial jiorlion of its orbit, nearest the path of tho comet, in its approach to vhc sun, they say its mm'mb will bo much disturbed, mid serious consequences ntay reasonably he apprehended. N. Lalande has computed that comets may pass with in JO,000 leagues without sensibly deran ging the iiiniion of the earth. Tile Com et of 1470 approached so near the raiili as to increase ils periodical time upwards of two days; atjjl had it* mass he n equal to tlmt of the earth it is continued by La Place, the earth's motion iu her orbit Would ImVo been equally retarded, and consequently have increased tliu length of 11to year unarly 49 hours. As no such ef fect was produced tho distinguishing force of llto comet was considered insensible. The m iss of limcuiuot was 15,000 It part less than tlmt of the earth. In 1454 the inoitn wus eclipsed by a rotnot; which must Itnvo passed within 200.000 miles of the earth,,.,aud it is known that no effect was produced Oy iu attractive force, either on tltn oarth or moon The immense ve locity of comols may ire a principal rea son why they du nut sensibly affect the motion of tho planets. That of 16,80 was calculated by Newton to move at the rale of 800,000 miles an hour, and Buybonu obstived one at Polernto in 1670, wtiose veloci'v bo computed to be equal to 2,500,000 miles au hour. The comet of 1-150 is best known to asttotioniers. Its period is contputod to he about 75 years, tho'igh front its motion being disturbed hv the planets it is sometimes longer. It ap peared m 1632 very bright; and >vus look ed after with great anxiety in 1758 ;....but Cloiroull determined front calculation that it would not appear till April, 1759. The increased length of its period lie attributed to the influence of Jupiter uud Saturn, near which it would pass. It ac cordingly approached nearest llto sun on the 121It of March, 1759- If ibis is the cornel to which lltu European papers re fer, it will not appear until 1334 or 5.... Thu distance of this cornet from the sun, wlien in the extreme etui of its orbit, is ■ about 82,000,000 miles ; yet it returns re gularly, mid its period liiishcon calculated by'llte mathematician within 30 days DUTIES IN FRENCH COLONIES.

I prefaced tiro allusion to the dissolution of the cabinet, by llto declaration, certain Iv not complimentary to the President, that mv retirement from the public ser vice, was the result of a sense of duly. In reference to this event, I used this I m- gunge— 11 a just sense of self respect—of which is duo to the cause of public morals —to your most sacred rights—10 the sanc tity of rlomestic life—anil to those house hold iiflcction* which constitute tit once, the charm and safeguard of society, will forbid mo to retrace a step which I have taken—to alter a sentiment which I have avowed.” I stood before that company by this declaration in the very act of re-as serting every statement contained in my two addresses to the public—re-establish ing ibeir position—ro-tstth iniug their sen timents—and renewing the declaration of my determination to vielil nothing in rela tion to rklier. Now let nnv molt ask him self what are the sentiments repressed, the views eihihited by these addresses con cerning tho President of the United Stales.

They will therefore merely state the views which induce their application at this time. Unless the question is decided by the present Congress, no definite action upon it can be expected until within two years of the expiration of the CJiarier—a pel i- od before which, m the opinion of your memorialists, it is highly expedient, not merely in refervnro to the institution it self, hot to tho more iinptirtunt interests ol tho nation, that the detot initiation of Con gress should be known, independently of the influence which it necessarily exerci ses over the state of the currency,by which all the pecuniary transactions of tliu com munity ate regulated, its own immediate operations are connected intimately with the local business of almost even soctio entitled in every consideration and favor.

I thought I could do tlris without tho possibih' v of being lia ble to the imputation of having been in fluenced bv unv unworthy motive. In this I was deceived,— I was right, how ever, and I fenifessly appeal to tho public to review its derision, I am free Io con fess iliiit the conviction is deeply humilin- j ting—-llial^iMiv portion of the American intorcluiiiges between the several States, and the intercourse of thejji tdl with for eign nations. Of the value tu tltn community, of the system which, after long and anxious e(- forls, anil u( groat pecuniary sacrifices, yotir memorialists have a; length succeed ed in establishing, it is not for them to speak; tlieic more immediate purpose is to represent, ns they do most respectfully, tlmt the continuance or destruction of that system, tbits w idely diffused through till the avenues of the pioihidivo industry of ilie country, affecting all the relations of public revenue and private income, and coutii- buttng to give stability to all the rewards ot labor, is an object of general solicitude.— If, satisfied with the practical operations of (lie institution, yiuu honorable body shall deem it worthy of commit nice, it seems expedient to relieve the country, ns sunn as may rottsisl with mature deliberation, from the uncertainly in which all private transactions,and tdl public improvements, dependent on ilia future condition of the currency, ami nnmunt . f capital disposa ble for those objects, must necessarily be involved until voar decision is known. It on the Ollier hand, the wisdom of Con gress shall del"i mine that the Bilik must cease io exist, it is still more impoitmu, that the country should begin out ly to pre pare, for tho expected change, and that the institution should have as much tun as possible to exacute the duty, always very delicate nnd difficult one, ef aiding the community to seek new channel* ot l>'t- siness, and, liy gradual old gentle move ments, to press with the least iuconveni- j euee ou 'he great interests connected w.'b it Having requested the gentlemen of the first committee, w ho are still in town, to bear my communication on the subject, I beg leave to wait the departure ot the next packet to have the honor to write to the New York committee.
