Tire harangues of John Randolph and the Indian He port of William H. Crawford seem in have had considerable influence in the last \ congress. It passed a resolution well calculat- ed to satiate the rancor of these gentlemen j,,. i- ius t European emigrants, and to cherish their predilections in favor of the blood-stained, moc , casined savage warriors ,of the wilderness and their drunken, dirty,greasy, blanketted, draggle- tail squaws. The executive is required to Uc before congress at the next session, and at cer tain stated periods thereafter, a list of all ojji- cers of tnegovernment, their names, salaries an;.' PLACES of NATIVITY! The object of dis- . ting.fishing between the rights of native ant; egis naturalized citizens is so obvious in this 1 lative mandate, that the wiilfull intention oi congress to violate the constitution (which gua rantees equal privileges to all the citizens of our •country) cannot for a moment be doubted.— No person can sincerely believe this procedure to be il an oversight in congress.” What! the «col’ected wisdom” ot our country enact a law without knowing its import or end! No such thing. Avarice and prejudice stimulated the supporters of the measure to perjury, by in fringing that constitution which they had sworn to preserve entire. But, has the conduct of naturalized foreign ers been such as to justify this attempt to reduce -them to the condition of ‘'hewers of wood and ♦■drawers' of water?” Have they discovered any reluctance in repelling every hostile attempt on rtieir adopted country? During the Revolution, - the ‘oreigners, who declared themselves in favor ■ of our independence, were as active arid zeal - ous as the native colonists; and, duringvthe late '•war, while the New-Englanders allowed the :English to retain Castine, without molestation. ■ szv.d were sending their deputies to Hartford ’with the express intention of cutting asunder Tfhe ligature of the Union, these same adopted jfcm*gtiers (with but few exceptions) in cou- Sunctmn with their fellow-citizens at Baltimore. New-v l-leans, and indeed wherever danger tht'eapt.uieJ, bared their bosoms to the storm ol war, an 1 rejoiced in the beams of our victories. Arethes a t a men who are .’to be prohibited tlie puciiic c to Sil ence? Are tiie . men, who have ibreken e very tie that b* and them to the dear though oj ppressed scenes of their youth on the faffh of America's yielding them a home with tl c lititi t v of her children, to be treated as out- < arts? W ne-e tlien is the faith, the honor, of the nat?ca? G one?—No! The people of Americaaie still true Lo their motto—freedom and Equali ty—dmt a joart of their public servants have base ly betray e* d the confidence reposed in them— that part, t s narrow-minded and selfish as they are wicked, have transgressed the national hos pitality, ami violated the laws of God and man, b y the hein ous offence of perjury. The Com sensation Bill, odious as it is, is no more when compared with the wickedness of this act t ban an emmet to an elephant, than a torch to th* fiery crater of Etna. The encrease of salary is no encroachment on tlie constitu tion; is no simoon that passes over the con s' fierice, wyb^ring every virtue and' blandish ment of tlreSsunnd, and leaving behind but the fet.d and pe, fiferous footsteps of perjury; it is ;• mere violation of confidence but what is - other? D oes it not declare the European to ■ in inferior being. a grade between the freeman id ofiaver and where is the man who feels not iiynant vyher, t^e remark is applied to his an cestors? What can be thought of the men who have puhi shed to the world their forefathers 5 disgrace, by drawing such ah odious distinction —a discrimination vvair.h allows that thev are descended from individuals incapable of rational freedom? Perjured, avaricious and shameless, as the supporters of inks measure are, their names mightto be known; the. veil of secrecy, that screen which has kvi ierto kiipttnis law from the public eye, Sfiould be torn in shivers, and the guiltv seen. that the national indignation may pursue tflem, and (he infamy of the last session never again stain the annals of America: ‘'lor woe to-our country,” if the progress of federal prin ciples be not arrested. A Worthy correspondent very justly remarks. ‘‘Thepolitical character of Benjamin Huger, esq. member of congress, appears to have gained great credit in this state for his opposition to the Compensation Bill; and, undoubtedly, he is en titled to korne merit; which we do not. wish to diminish, unless it becomes offensive by invidi ous comparisons. Mr. Huger is a respectable gentleman and an American patriot,finit in his opposition to this wretched measure, he did not io more than our representatives, (a speech hard - - V understood in congress excepted.) We, there fore, Dunk, Diat there can be no difference be tween Mr. Huger and Colonel £uTHBER-rorany other of the state delegation to the lower house of congress; for they are also respectable gentle- menand American patriots: But did Mr. Huger take the fifteen hundred dollars? We have no proof that life did not; and are indirectly inform ed, compensation of fifteen hundred dollars is yet unknown, and requested his name ijot to be pub lished. If Mr. Huger refused this amount, let it be ascertained; if he did not, let truth prevail, and he fall on the same footing of the other mem bers, who opposed the law, but took the compen sation, because it was constitutionally tendered, and it could not be refused without reflecting up on a fair and honorable majority of congress.” SOUTH-AMERICA. It cannot have escaped the observation of any- one who has cast his eyes over the variety of toasts at the differ ent public festivals on tlie 4th instant, that the most pro minent and general sentiment, after tlie great toasts of the day, the constitution, and the memory of departed patriots an. l*living worthies, was success to the struggles for the emancipation of South-Amenca. A fact is thus ascertained; that the people of Columbia regard the con gest which now exists in that quarter with an interest, and indeed anxiety, the extent of which had not before been realized. So predominant, so universal is tlie sentiment, that we need not be surprised if this subject be one of those which among m.aiy others of great interest, will in | some shape or otiier occupy the attention of congress at their next session. The contest in Sputli-America, in some degree, resembles hat which secured the indepen dence of this nation; in which the cui/se of the colonies may be as good, though tlie adaptation of republican go vernment to their habits m..v not, be as certain. It is not quite clear to us in what shape the United States can aid them, if at all; hut to doubt tiicir good wishes, would be to suppose them forgetful of the principles of the revolu tion, and insensible to tlie nobicst principles of huin..n action. It is impossible the citizens of the United States snould net sympathize with a people contending in arms for tiie right of self-government.—.YaUonal Intelligencer, ‘24th July. The adored monarch of Spain is renowned for his re ligious devotion; while he was in tlie bunds of Napoleon, he occupied his precious hours in embroidering a petti coat for tiie Virgin; at the date of the latest advices from Madrid, it was Said, ins devotions lo mother Venus were so ardent and indiscriminate, as to ..ff.rct liisaheaith, and render necessary tiie mterpostion ot .Mercury, the mes- senger of nil the gods. It is reported that Richard Meade, esq. of this city, while acting as lice consul, (in the absence of Mr. Catn- cart,) at Cadiz, ha-> been seized by,ami armed force under the authority of the Spanish government, and committed to a dungeon ill foe castle of St. Catalina.—Aurora. FROM THE SPANISH MAINE. The schooner Cumberland,. Captain Wilson, arrived at Alexandria on uie 22d inst. in nine days from St. Bartho lomews, hasf mushed the subjoined intdligence: “Accounts had been received at St. Bartholomews from the Maine, stating that the royalists had evacuated nearly tub whole coast of Venezuela, and that the patriots -were successful in every respect. “The French fleet was momently looked for at Guada- loupe: “The markets at St. Bartholomews were glutted with all kinds of American produce, and colonial pi’oduce was scarce and high.” GENERAL GAINES. It is certain, that this valuable officer "s arrested, but witn what offence charged, we are not informed. We hear of the arrest, and die organization of tlie court mar tial from every'quarter, but no mention whatever as to the cause. No officer in our service displayed more valor or abler conduct during the war, than general Gaines.— His defence of fort Erie has been but r..reiy, if ever, ex celled. He is a proud, high minded Virginian; and, ac cused him who mav, we fearlessly predict, he will come through thecrucibie pure as gold.—Petersburg Intelligen cer. . i ■ - « - % ..... a. . •' -- t . side*, for foot panlengeirs; but only one for carriages, Test the square should reedme too much a thorough fare for the residents of the city. # There will be a terrace around the capitol; from which the descent down the hill will be gradually, sloped by falls and ten-aces.

The Museum will be encied on the east side of the square, so as to face F street. The foundatiun is traced, and tfie digging is already commenced. The capitol itself is to receive various repairs and em bellishments, both within and without. Circumstances may fora short time delay some of these projected improvements; but tlie contracts "will be form ed, aim the materials, it is hoped, will be collected - ns soon as possible. From euerv account we can hear of Mr. Godfrey, he is an ari"'t of great teste- and ingenuity.

NEWS FROM HAVANA. The following is a:i extract of a leuer to the editor of the Philadelphia Aurora, elated “Havana, July 6. “I am about to leave this place, for Orleans, in about ten days; . nd use tlie opportunity that now offers, to give you such information as can be li d, under tue Spa nish government. A new captain general l.„s arrived; he is to command this island and dependencies—tm-,creat ed, for some days, a strong- sensation among the punters and merchants, who had learned, that he brought w ith Inm, an order from die ado ruble Ferdmand, 10 close tins port against aii foreign bottoms. The aiarm has, howe ver, passed away—the old governor -ipuilncu, under stood the state of this colony, better than tile court ot Madrid, and no doubt lie soon convinced the new captain general,that a force winch, uniting aii he brought with Inm, andihose here before, do not exceed tint thousand sue hundred men fit for service, would not be sufficient lo repress discontent, in so extensive a colony; for, aitiiougii there are here, what may be calicu local maun, tlie Spanish authorities appear to apprehend, that if dicre was any convulsion, they would 3c? on the side of tiie people.
