Lord John Russell, to introduce a bill
.. parliament, transferring the right of
coding members to that body from the
orrupt borough of Grampouud, to the
piilous town of Leeds.
Mr. Hobhouse had been arrested liy
order of the House of Commons, and
oonveyed to Newgate. He had written
a pamphlet, which the House of Com
mons had construed into a libel on that
body. Mr. Hobhouse openly and man
fully acknowledged himself to be the au
thor of the pamphlet. When the ser
geant at arms attempted to arrest him, at
«house in New-street, he refused to snr-
reuJer, declaring that he would submit
to nothing but force. The officer then
ailed in two assistants, and laying his
band on Mr. Hobhouse, said “ you are
my prisoner.” Mr. Hobhouse then re
plied, “ 1 must submit to force, but 1
protest (.gainst this illegal seizure, and de
sire you to inform the Speaker thereof.”
Mr. Hobhouse intends to contest the
power of the House to commit a person,
not being one of its members, for an al-
lcdged libel.
A meeting had been holden at the
Crown and Anchor Inn, London, in con
sequence of the arrest of Mr. Hobhouse,
at which Sir Francis Burdett presided.
Upon taking the chair he commenced an
address, wherein he stated that this pro
cedure was an usurpation of power
which the king on the throne had never
attempted to exercise. It was mon
strous to think that the same persons

turners. lie denied the right of the

FROM THK NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER OF
FEBRUARY 4.
An unexpected debate, short but pithy,
took place in the Douse of Representatives
yesterday, on the proposition to authorise
the publication of the Secret Journal of the.
Congress of the old Confederation, from
the Treaty of 1783. up to the formation of
the Constitution. [Ry an act of the last
Congress, if may be recollected, the publica
tion of that Journal was autl.oi is -d, un to the
Treaty of Peace.] Some hints were thrown
out in the course of the debate, which shew
the feelings of the times. It is enough to
say, that the Missouri question w as visible
through the whole texture of this do hate on
a totally different matter.
The excitement occasioned by the Mis
souri question continues to he spoken of,
but it appears to us is less seriously felt in
Congress, than it. is earnestly deprecated.—
And w hat i.; wonderful, and to us inexplica
ble, is, that the excitement at a distance ap
pears to be greater than in Congress; still
more, that, it should be more violent in
the states east of us, than among those who
d domestic

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
MONDAY, JANUARY 31.
AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION
Mr. Baldwin, of Pennsy lvania, offer
ed the following resolution, which was
twice read and committed to a commit
tee of the whole House.
Resolved, by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of
America in Congress assembled, two thirds
of both Houses concurring, that the fol
lowing amendment to the constitution of
the United States be proposed to the
Legislatures of the several states ; which
when ratified by the Legislatures of
three fourths of the states, shall be va
lid to all intents and purposes, as part
of the said constitution ;-j
Are we asked for proof of this? AW pro
duce the following outrageous assault cm
flip character and feelings of the honora
ble—we do not call them honorable i.i a ti
tular sense—llie honorable members of the
Senate who voted for the union of Maine
and Missouri in one bill:
THOM THE PORTLAND GAZETTE.
“Let that day he darkness; let not the
sun shine upon it with its usual splendor, in
which it shall he said that a member from
Maine shall have so defiled his reputation
and outraged humanity, and so abused and
disgraced Lis constituents, as to have lifted
up his hands, as expressive of their senti
ments for the admission of Maine on tbi
most unprecedented, unjust, and diabolical
condition”—[of the simultaneous admission
of Missouri.]
How detestable is this vindictive spirit of
persecution, let loose upon individuals for
a conscientious discharge of their duty!—
The same, furious spirit would drive a dag
ger to the heart, or apply a torch to the
dwelling, of a political opponent. Few in
stances, thank Heaven, of such a spirit are
to he found in our country. Once only
have we seen something like it, when the
late war raged most hotly, and v Ren despe
rate politicians talked of bringing to the. block
the heads of the administration of the gov
ernment.
We are sorry to find a paper sustaining
the general fair character to wbieh the New-
York Evening Post haaa just claim, exhibit
ing symptoms of having caught the inferti
on from liis neighbor the Editor of the New-
York Daily Advertiser. The latter, we ap
prehend, is incurable. The afflicted being
laboring under the Hvdrophobinl disease
lias not a greater antipathy to the liquid ele
ment, than lie to the Southern men and
Southern principles. It is innate, and all at
tempts to counteract it appear hut to aggra-
\ ate the unfortunate prejudice. In this man
ner has operated our intimation that the
diffusion of slaves over a greater extent of
territory or among free population is not an
extension of the principle of slavery. The
intimation we now positively rc-assert, with
an additional remark on the following obser
vation of the Editor of the Gazette: • Has
it (the Missouri question) no relation to the
millions yet unborn, whose destiny will be
fixed in perpetual bondage by the decree
that permits the curse to he planted iu the
new soil of Missouri? It. has: it has a re
lation to the amelioration of the condition
of slaves : it opens the only practicable path
to a gradual improvement of their condition,
and to the accomplishment of that object
The cry of hard times &: scarcity of money,
which is heard in every part of our coun
try, is not made without cause. In seine of
the states’, pecuhiary distress to such rxtent
was never lie fore witnessed. The ligji pri
ces of produce, reduced suddenly tolewthan
one half—the unprecedented extr qgance
of the people,« ho did not dream ofa change
so sudden and unfavorable; together with
the pressure on the Banks for spc<ie, which
compels them to curtail their loaip and call
in a part of the debts due them, linl e all ope
rated to produce this disastrous state of
things.
The Banks, in loaning so profuely have
acted most unwisely, and along villi their
debtors, must now expiate, by prration and
retrenchment, for their ill-timed liberality.
Nothing but a combination of Iyluslry and
Economy, with reasonable forllamnce by
creditors, can save from ruin thowanils, who
till lately basked in the sunshiu) of prospe
rity, and have rushed heedlessly into debt.
The number of suits institutediri this and
some of the neighboring count rs, presages
a distressing sacrifice of propertt.

Chilian Government, passed the. port of
Lima without entering it. This, Capt.
Downs was induced to do iu return for
the friendly reception mid great civilities

a desire to avoid every thing like collisi

Capt. Downes ran down the coast and

thence proceeded off the port of Lima,

blockading the port. She was command

stated that it was not the intention of the
Admiral to enforce the blockade of Fern

taken and plundered Payta, and several
plantations on the const, of sugar, rum,

sertion respecting the intention of the
Admiral, stated, that several American
vessels bad sailed in and out of the port
of Payta which they did not even speak,
and that several others were trading at
other ports on the coast, to wit: the
brig Macedonian, at Quurmey—the Rea,-
ver, at Truxillio, and the ship Two Ca

whether tiny of these ships had been mo

proceeded toGuarmey, where he arriv

From Guariney, Capt. Downes pro

search of the two Catharines, for the
purpose of offering her convoy, but she
had sailed for St. Blass several days be
fore. At Guyaquil the Macedonian re
ceived from the Governor great civility.
Afier refreshing alGuyaquil, the Ma
cedonian sailed for St. Blass, where she
arrived on the Seth July, and found the
Two Catharines.
During net-stay at St. Blass they were
visited every night by severe lightning,
