vauoed by the State of Virginia m 1792. to (he federal government for the purpose of erect mg the Public Buildings. The bill was referred to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union. Mr Bowlin reported back from the Com mittee on Public lands, the Senate bill giving to the States in which they lie, the swamp lands, on the condition that they reclaim the same. After debate the previous question was sec onded and the main question ordered. The House then adjourned. By the aid of diving bells, the western folks ar« searching the wreck of the steamboat Neptune, which was sunk, about twenty years ago, at tne mouth of Mayfield’s Creek in the Mississippi It has been found that butter ta ken from the wreck, after being submerged one-fifth of a century, has not changed its taste, and is as good as though it had just been made. A Valuabl* Discovert.—The New York Evening Post says : “In the library of the City Hall, tnere is a large quarto volume con taining the Declaration of Independence, exe cuted in the neatest style of penmanship, ap pended to which is an interesting manuscript (of which the following is a true copy) in the handwriting of Charles Carroll, of Carrollton. The book was presented at the suggestion of Rev. Stephen N. Rowan, the orator for this city on the occasion of the death of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, who recom mended in the course of his oration that “a copy of the Declaration of Independence, elegantly engrossed on be trans mitted ere it be too late, to the venerable Car roll, its sole surviving signer, to be certified by him and used by our Common Council, on every successive celebration of the Fourth of July.” The suggestion meetiug the approval of the Mayor and Common Council, Dr. Rowan, in company with the Rev. Mr. Gibson, of Baltimore, visited the venerable patriot, who received the proposition with great warmth of feeling. V hen the book was afterwards handed to John Q,. Adams, who was at that time President, for his signature, he pointed out a singular coincidence in the dates of the original signature of Mr. Carroll to the Decla ration and his signature to his certificate of approbation. He signed the original on the 2d day of August, 1776, and his certificate of approbation on the 2d day of August, 1826, exactly fifty years after to a day: “ Grateful to Almighty God for the blessing which, through Jest?s Christ our Lord, he haa conferred on my beloved country in her eman cipation, and upon myself, in permitting me under circumstances of mercy to live to the age of eighty-nine years, and to survive the fiftieth year of American Independence, and certifying by my present signature my appro bation of the Declaration of Independence, adopted by Congress on the fourth of July, in the >ear of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and seventy six, which I originally subscribed on the second day of August of the same year, and of which 1 am now the last surviving signer, Ido hereby recommend to the present and future generations the princi ples of that important document as the best earthly inheritance their ancestors could be queadi to them ; and pray that the civil and religious liberties they have secured to my countrymen may be perpetuated to remotest posterity, and extended to the whole family of man.

Since our report of the Ist inst, the market has presented no new feature. The inquiry for the past week has been brisk but on account of the light j block, the sales have been small. On Wednesday, ( the sales amounted to only 67 bales. On Thursday, there were no sales reported. On Friday 229 bales | changed hands, at very full’pricee. On Saturday, 160 bales. On Monday, there was a very brisk demand, and 643 bales changed hands, at Jc. advance. On j yesterday, we heard of the sales es only 44 bales, at ( prices paid the previous day. There can be no doubt but that the probability of a short crop has more in- j fluence on prices than any news that has been receiv- £ ed from England for some time past. The sales here j indicate, better than any remark ofour’s, the present j feeling in the market.
