promulgated, amidst the most extravagant demonstration of joy and exultation. In the part of the day, many of the houses had been closed, in the expectation that second, the President already had the power vested in him bv law to do what was proposed ; and that if he had neg- . . , . . lected to execute the law, and it was in- confustonand bloodshed would be the tended to take any step in relation to it consequence;, but the change was hap-Jhe ought to be approached in a differed way, fee. The motion prevailed, without a divi sion, and the resolutions were ordered to Hu on the table according] v. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Mr. Smith, of Maryland, presented a petition of sundry inhabitants of the city of Baltimore, praying that measures may be adopted to prevent citizens of the U. States from engaging ir. the business of privateering under the flags of the go vernments in South America, and that certain ports in the United States be de signated, in which only cruizers of those governments may be permitted to enter, and that those lying on the waters of the Chesapeake Bay may be among those which may be prohibited ; which peti tion was referred to the committee on Foreign Affairs. TARIFF OF DUTIES, fee. fee. The house then again resolved itself into a committee of the whole, Mr. Tay lor in the chair, on the bill to regulate the Duties on Imports. A motion to strike out the first section of the bill (to reject it) being under con sideration— Mr. Tyler delivered a speech of about an hour’s length in support of this mo tion. Mr. Starts delivered a speech of about the same length, iu reply. After whom, Mr. Gross, of N. York, spoke at some length, on the same side of the question. The question was then taken on strik ing out the first section of the bill, and decided in the negative, 73 votes to 43. The committee of the whole then took up the other bill referred to by the title of “ A bill regulating the pay ment of duties on merchandise imported, and for other purposes.” [This bill provides, that from & after a certain date, the duties laid on all goods, wares and merchandise, imported into the United States, except dying drugs, and materials lor composing dy e?, arable, gum Senegal, and all other articles used solely for medicinal purposes, cassia, cinnamon, clove3, chocolate, cocoa, cof fee, indigo, mace, molasses, nutmegs, pepper, pimento, salt, ochre, sugar, tea, shall be paid before a permit shall be gran ted for landing the same, unless entered for exportation or deposited in public store houses. On the excepted articles, duties not exceeding 100 dollars in a- mount to be paid in cash ; and, if exoeed- ding that sum, shall be allowed a credit, on one half for three months, and on the other half for six months—except tea, the duties on which are to be payable, in equal payments, at three, six and nine months.] Mr. Baldwin explained at some length the general views which had induced the committee on manufactures to report this bill, and spoke in detail of the vari ous provisions contained in it. Mr. Silsbee assigned at considerable length, the reasons why he was opposed to the passage of the bill. Mr. Lowndes also assigned, the reasons why he also was opposed to the bill, and particularly to the provisions which con template restrictions on the East India trade. Mr. Clay spoke in reply to Mr. Silsbee and Mr. Lowndes, and urged the adop tion of the provisions of this lull. Mr. Lowndes again spoke ; and Mr. Clap rejoined. Mr. Baldwin was speaking earnestly in support of the bill; when An alarm of fire, in the city, induced the committee to rise (at 4 o'clock) and The House adjourned. ARRIVAL OF THE U. S FRIGATE CON STELLATION, COM. MORRIS. Norfolk, April 34. The U. States’ frigate Constellation, flag ship of the squadron which left the Chesa peake in November last under the command of Commodore Morris, for Soutli Ameri ca, came in from sea on Saturday about two o’clock, and anchored in Hampton Hoads the same evening. The Constellation took her departure for the United States at Monte Video, on the 29th of February, vs ith the rest of the squadron,consisting of the frigate John Jldams, Capt. Wadsworth, and sehr. jYonsuch, Capt. Turner—touched at Mar tinique on the Gth inst. and sailed thence for St. Thomas, where she left the John Adams on the 12th (the Nonsuch not having arriv ed) and sailed for the United States. Colonel S. Halsey, American Consul at Buenos Ayres, lias come home in the Cou- stcllation. The Constellation having sprung her bow sprit, will remain here until she is fitted w ith a new one, when we understand, she will immediately put to sea a^ain. Of South American aftairs we learn, from a highly intelligent source, that a corp3 of Artigas’s army marched into the Portuguese territory, about the last of November, and defeated a corps of Portuguese troops, but on its retreat was intercepted by a large corps of the Portuguese army, and routed with considerable loss of men, horses and cattle. _ The troops of the Entre Rios and bant a tim nimmnnd of lien.

Steinhaur, of the ship Brandt arri ved on Tuesday afternoon. we are put in pos session of Paris and Bordeaux papers to the 14th March, contaiuing London dates to the 8th, and Madrid to the 9th inclu sive. The Revolution which has been so speedily and tranquilly effected in Spain, argues very much in favor of enlarged views, religious, moral and political, in that nation—We find by a Madrid article of the 2nd March, that the new Council, who advised and supported the King in this measure of wisdom and moderation, consisted of the following distinguished characters viz : His Royal Highness In- fcuito Don Carlos ; the Duke de Infanta- do—the Duke of San Fernando—Bishop of Madrid—the Counsellor of Castile— Of. Lardizabel, and Counsellor of State Mr. Hivas. Boiuif.aux, March 14. The insurrection has at length become general in Spain. A courier who arriv ed here yesterday, brought intelligence from various constitutional chiefs and several new journals, from which, on ac count of want of room, we can make but few extracts. The intelligence brought is further confirmed by a Russian cou rier, who passed through here yester day, and who had quitted Madrid on the morning of the 9th inst. He adds, that after the almost unanimous declaration of the army and people, and the energe tic demonstration of General Ballesteros, the King found himself obliged to pro claim the constitution of the Cortes, the same as wc announced yesterday. The prisons of the Inquisition were universally thrown open, and a general amnesty was about signing when the cou rier left there. Saragossa, March 7th. Never has a political change been brought about with so much tranquility and union. The constitution has been proclaimed the day before yesterday, by all the people, and the garrison compos ed of two regiments of infantry and one of cavalry. Military music and a gene ral illumination, terminated this memo rable day. The joy of the people of Ar- ragon was at its height. The marquis d’Alazon, Captain General, has been confirmed in his command, and the Count de Castrezon, who had replaced him by order of the King, has been arrested and sent back to Madrid. Madrid, March 6. All has terminated happily : the weak ness of the government against the im mense force of public opinion, does not even give time enough to organize the contest between light and darkness— The Conte d’Abisbal, who called him self the friend of Ferdinand, has gone to Ocana, where he has put himself at the head of a regiment commanded by one of his brothers, and has arrested the public authorities, and nrocisiifted the constitution. He continues the same ope ration in the different towns of the chan nel. Several piquets of cavalry from this garrison, and many gardes de corps, have deserted with their arms and mounting*. All the corps of engineers and sappers which were at Alcala have disappeared. Finally, all the provinces are declaring themselves independent, and constituting provisional governments. All these e- vents which follow each other with such rapidity, have forced the King to declare that he would consent to the wishes of the people, and show the most lively movements of joy ; and we hope that this great crisis will be terminated with out the smallest misfortune. It is as serted that General Freyre, in concert with the patriots of the Isla de Leon, has likewise proclaimed the constitution, which has been published at Segovia, and fixed oil in every quarter ; but a foolish ecclesiastic, who had the boldness to tear down one of these bills, was im mediately put to death. Vittoria, March 9. Saragossa lias proclaimed the consti tution ; Carthagena has done the same ; and it is said that Catalonia has followed the example. The 8th of this month the King was to publish it in Madrid.— The funds have been already nagociated at 70 francs. ratua, Governor of the Piovmtfo, and negoti ations were to be immediately entered into with Ramirez. Already friendly communi cations had passed between the present com mander of the Buenos Ayrcnn troops, Gen. F.stanislaus Soler and Gen. Ramirez. The Constitution will be revised, and it is expect ed, a Federative Government established, which has long been the wish of the other province ; but some time will elapse before the political commotions in that part of S. America will be settled, or the people be come qualified to appreciate the blessings of rational liberty. It would appear that this civil war lias been rather a personal one of Putrn/don : lie co-operating with the Portuguese to annihi late Artigas, who is defending the country a- gainst the unjust cncronchmrnts of the Por tuguese, into the territory railed the 1 Banda Oriental,’ which for many years they have been desirous of possessing.—Herald. MILLKDGEVILLE, Tuesday, Mav 9 LY SENATE—Monday, April 34. The following resolutions, submitted by Mr. Morril on the 21st inst. were ta ken up for consideration. Resolved, That the practice of Duel ing is inhuman, immoral and censurable Resolved, That the President of the United States would he justifiable in striking from the rolls of the army and navy the names of all persons thereon, who have been or hereafter may be, di rectly or indirectly engaged in a duel, ° r who may have been, or hereafter may he, in any way or manner accessary thereto. The resolution having been read, Mr Morril, proceeded, in a speech of consi derable length, to support the principles ''fiiir.h were laid dqwn in the resolutions. "hen he had concluded, Mr. Williams of Tennessee moved to . y Ihe resolutions on the table, belies ? n S. in regard to the first resolution, that ft Was a waste of time to be arguing ab- ftract propositions j that in regard to the Fee, under the command of Gen. Ramirez had attacked the Buenos Ayrean army un der Gen. Rondeau, (the Director)on the 1st of February, and defeated it. Ramirez, With his army occupied a position within 32 leagues of Buenos Ayres. The political affairs of the Province of Bu enos Ayres were in a confused state—The Government was, in fact, dissolved. An ef fort had been previously made by the Con gress aud Director (ad interim) to negotiate with Hamirez, and had, for that purpose, chosen deputies; but he refused to recognize the authority of the Congress, or to treat with the deputies, declaring however, that it the people would appoint a new set of rulers free of the influence of Puerryuon, lie was ready to treat with them. Twelve electors had been appointed, persons of great pro bity and credit,.who had rc elected the Ca- vilao: and had uhvatat i!vi> dc S»r- C'/*’ So far from its being true, that the treaty ceding the Floridas has been delivered to our government ratified by Spain, as has been confidently asserted in some of the nor thern papers, we are correct in stating that it is not even understood at Washington that the Spanish Minister lias brought the treaty confirmed by his sovereign—The reverse is believed if not known to be the fact. The real state of the business we. are well assured is, that the ticic Minister of Spain having al ready shewn a disposition to procrastinate, government have signified to him that they are done tcith discussion unless he delivers the treaty,or Florida as a security for its ratifica tion. The late revolution in Spain it is supposed will essentially change our attitude with that power, nnd inay have tile effect to suspend further proceedings, until Fives gets fresh in structions under the new government. 05 s * The complete success of the revolu tion in Spain, not less unexpected than plea sing, opens an ample field for speculation and conjecture. The power of Ferdinand is prostrate. The people have every thing in their own hands, and can mould the govern ment into whatever form they please. Will they prefer a limited monarchy, something like that of Great Britain, or one less favora ble to the liberty of the subject ?—So wed ded are they to the trappings of royalty, that a monarchical government, more or less des potic, they will certainly have. Can we hope for the abolition of the hateful inquisi tion and the firm establishment of the liberty of the press ? What important changes in the moral and physical condition of Spain, may not this event produce ? The Spanish nation, formerly among the most warlike and enterprising of Europe, aroused from their apathy, may yet emulate, the, deeds of their ancestors—awakened to i full sense of their national degradation, a reaction may take place that w ill form a memorable e; in their history. How will the revolution in the mother country aflect her American pos essions ? And lastly, though to us nut the least interesting enquiry is, bow will h influ ence her councils iu regard to the United States ? iCF The United States Circuit Court for the District of Georgia, commenced sitting here on Saturday lust; there appears to he not much business before the Court, and it will probubly adjourn in a day or two. The grand jury yes terday returned true bills againstone of the crew of the Louisa privateer, charged witii piracy; whose trial will come ou to-day. rublic Lands.—The highly important bill, forchungiiigthe mode of disposing of the Public Lands, so as that hereafter they shall be offered for sale in half quarter sections, the minimum price to be one dollar and twenty-five cents, and all to be paid in cash, has passed both Houses of Congress, by great majorities, and now wants only the signature of the President to become n law. The bill is to takeell'ect from the first day of July next.—Nat. Int. The Washington City Gazette of April 24, says—“ We have just been inform ed, from a source on which we can rely, that in consequence of an adherence of the Spanish cabinet to the extensive grants of Florida lands assigned to the duke de Alagon, and Punon Rostro, not having been relinquished in the treaty of which Gen. Vives is the bearer to our Government, and which we are told had been signed by Ferdinand, that the President of the United States has not only rejected the treaty, but also refused to receive Gen. Vives as the minister from Spain. These facts are expected to be communicated to Congress forth with.” TO THE EDITORS. “ Washington, April 23. 1 In relation to Spanish Affairs, l am informed that the new minister has not yet developed his views. The govern ment is disposed to urge it to a speedy conclusion ; but judging from the past, and being fully satisfied that Spain gains every thing by delay, I am persuaded that ihc negociation will be procrastinat ed as long as possible. It seems general ly to be believed that our government would accept the old treaty with expla natory clauses. How this may be I know not. fn fact f gather the above informa tion entirely from rumor. “ 1 he fate of the Tariff is very un certain. All attempts heretofore made to postpone it have proved fruitless.— We have gone through its various de tails in two days, and the majority have resisted all efforts uttimcndment. The increased duties on molasses and salt are very unpalatable to the northern members, and have I trust given them a distaste to the bill,...This may tend to defeat it. On Saturday, Mr. Tyler sub mitted a motion to strike out tbe first section, after which the house adjourn ed ; and to-morrow he will open the de bate, which it is expected will terminate in three or four days. “ We expect to adjourn by tu-mor- )tv fortnight.”—Enquirer. The Declaration of the King of Spain, promising to «wenr to the Constitution proclaimed by the General and Extraor dinary Cortes in 1312, is in these words : Gazette Extraordinary of Madrid, Wednesday, Uh March, 1820. OFFICIAL ARTICLE. It has pleased the King our Sovereign, to address to all his Secretaries of State, the royal decree which follows : To avoid the delay which might arise front the doubts entertained by the coun cil in execution of my decree of yester day for the immediate convocation of the Cortes, nnd being the general will of the people, 1 linve decided to swear to the Constitution proclaimed by the gene ral and Extraordinary Cortes in the year 1812. Do you hold it as understood, nnd do you make immediate publication of this. Signed by my royal hand, FERDINAND. Falacc, 7th March, 1020. Savannah, April 28, Execution—Agreeably to appointment the awful sentence of the law was this day, at half past 12 o’clock, performed upon John Hobson alias John Furlong, (but lias denied both these names) con victed of murder and piracy. The ce remonies on the occasion were solemn and impressive—the terrible and igno minious end of this unfortunate man, who lias thus expiated his crimes on the scaf fold, must serve as a striking example to prevent the commission of similar of fences. He was a Roman Catholic and received great attention from the Rev. Mr. Gallagher. The conduct of Furlono, during the period of his being brought from the goal, until he was executed, was marked with a degree of firmness seldom witnessed un such an occasion. He walked to the gallows with great boldness, where he knelt and prayed for some time, aided by the priest. He resigned life with the greatest composure :—St apparently with a confident hope of pardon for his sins:—For such was his coolness, when be ascended the scaffold, the executioner tied but a single knot upon tbe rope- The culprit remarked that he did not understand bis business, thnt the knot would slip and desired him to take two half/mc/tes upon it ; when this was done, be saiil that w ill do ! The marshal ask ed him if he had any tiling to say ? He addressed the crowd and said, he hoped those nrouud him would take warning by his unfortunate fate, and think twice be fore they acted once. It is supposed his neck was broke when he dropped, as he died very suddenly. The crowd of spectators was immense, and the scene impressive. Since sentence was passed upon him, lie has appeared to have been devoutly engaged in preparing himself for the aw ful change, lie has not pretended to deny the justice of his sentence. He has never made any disclosure, which was satisfactory, either of his name, connexions, or residence; and it is believed he did not wish his relations should ever know his fate. There is but little doubt, from his dialect, that he was horn iu Ireland. Furlong appeared to possess a strong mind, and we trust that lie was sincerely penitent. He expired without a strug gle. The body remained suspended about half an hour, when it was taken down and interred. We cannot but hope that this awful exhibition and example will have the beneficial effect of deter ring others from similar crimes. Tins was also the day fixed for the execution of Ralph Clintock, David Bower and He.vrv Matthews for the crime of piracy; but the executive of the UuiteJ States has respited them till the middle of June next.—Republican. The sword voted to Col. Richard M. Johnson, by a resolution of Congress, in testimony of their high sense of his gallantry aud good conduct, in the deci sive battle on the Thames, in Upper Ca nada, during the late war with Great Britain, was presented to that gentleman yesterday by the President of the Uni ted States. The Heads of Departments, and many Members of both Houses of Congress attended to witness an honor not less distinguished than it in deserved. On presenting to Colonel Johnson this mark of his country's approbation, the President addressed him as follows : Sir—1 now perforin an office which is very gratifying to my feelings. In the late war, ofir country was assailed on every side ; on the whole Atlantic coast, and inland frontiers ; and in many quar ters at the same time. Honored by your fellow citizens, you then held a station iu the public councils which afforded you an opportunity to render services with which a patriotism, less ardent would have been satisfied. But you re paired to the field, at the head of a regi rnent of volunteers,,nnd met the enemy at formidable. At the head of that corps, and well supported by it, you fought with heroic gallantry, and essentially contri buted to the victory which was obtained. Your country is grnteful for these ser vices, and in compliance with a resolu tion of Congress, I present to you this sword, as a testimonial of its high regard. To which Col. Johnson replied : Mr. President—With sentiments of un feigned gratitude to the National Legis lature, far the testimonial of their appro bation, aud to you, sir, lor the cordiality w ith which it is presented, I accept the donation, ns the richest reward of a sol dier’s merit—but not w itliOut a deep sense of the slender claim which I have to such distinguished honor. Conscious of the forbearance of our country under a con tinued repetition of injuries, it became my duty, when the last resort of notions was adopted, to contribute, with our fel low citizens, my personal services, in vin dicating our common rights ; and it was my good fortune to be placed at the head of a corps, whose valor was eqllnl to the occasion, nnd who would have done ho nor to any leader. Their worth supplied my deficiency ; and it w ill ever give me pleasure to regard this, as a token of tbeir merit. Unworthy as 1 am of this distinc tion, 1 derive great consolation from the elevated character of the illustrious body under whose resolution you act, which is much encreased by a recollection of the Revolutionary services and (he exalted reputation of the individual designated to carry it into effect.—Nat. Int. one of the points, where lie was most gality? ■Washington, April 25. The Deficiency in the Revenue of the country, which now requires the aid of a Loan, is not of an amount, taken into com parison with our actual resources, and our animal expenditure, to excite a moment’s uneasiness. It lias been, moreover, so long a matter of calculation, that the annunciation of an intended loan can have excited no sur prise, unless at the smallness of its amount. Such as it is, however, :l has set the old leaven of Federalism to fermenting ; and in a New-York paper of the ultra-federal cast, the necessity of a loan is ascrilied to prodi gality of expenditure by the Republican Ad ministration. Without stopping to notice the ill grace with which objections to a loan come from those, one of whose cardinal prin ciples is, or was, that a public debt is a public blessing, let us see how* the imputation of prodigality is sustained. To t his end, let us ask, what has been the immediate cause of this deficiency ? Has it been any thing that these Ultras will disap prove ? it is trim, that, owing to the stagnation of commerce, our revenue from imports is not so productive as in former years it had been. It is yet of sufficient amount, however, to have met all the authorised demands on the Treasury, for expenditures of every descrip tion, sat e one. That one is the Revolutiona ry Pension List, which requires an annual exjienditure greater than the amount of the proposed loan, and very nearly equal to the actual deficiency of means, of the present year—which deficiency would never have existed, but for past expenditures under the Pension Law. Is it to this expenditure, that the charge of prodigality of expenditure is to apply? It is enough to say, that the expendi ture was sanctioned, Ik. the abolition of it has been vehemently opposed, by those who now prefer an accusation which iias no bet ter foundation than this. But, suppose the Revenue had fallen short, by more than the annual amount of this Pen sion list, let us see whether even then the Administration is liable to the reproach which is cast upon it. Almost one-half of our annual expenditure, viz: ten millions of dollars, goes to what is called the Sinking Fund ; out of which is paid so much ns is necessary to defray the interest of the Pubiick debt, and the remain der annually applied to the redemption of the principal of that debt. This is tile Re publican |>o!icy ; and is it this—this expen diture of one half ibe amount of our annual income, to pay oft’ a debt contracted, first, in the establishment of the Independence of our Government, and, secondly, in main taining it, that is called prodigal ? Wc shall be glad to understand, if not by those we have mentioned, to what branch of the public expendit ure, at the present day, this epithet of prodigality is applied, by those who now throw it in our teeth. Some there are, we know, who believe wc ought to have no Army, <>r one very reduced in numbers; but it is not the ultras wilo hold that opinion. If tliu question were present ed to them, we are persuaded they would unanimously oppose its reduction. If then an Army be maintained, it is enough that the administration of our Military affairs is at present economical, and the expense of the. cstaMishiuent, so far from increasing, is growing daily less, as experience points out where the hand of retrenchment awl reform may he safely and prudently applied. To tbe annual expenditure for the Navy, we have heard no objection, whatever differ- nec of opinion there may have existed as to the mode of employment of a part of it.— Is it, them, to the additional expenditure of one million of dollars annually, for eight years, for ship timber, that objection is made ? Or to the two hundred thousand dollars au- nually appropriated for providing lor arming the Militia ? Whatever these expenditures may be, they arc certainly not prodigal, nor the result of the short-sighted policy imputed ti the government. Such measures arc the fruit of wisdom. To provide, in due season, that which, when need comes, cannot be gotten in haste, is true economy as well as wisdom. The same may be said of the annual ex- lenditure of nearly a million of dollars for Fortifications, for the permanent maritime defence. For the want of them, our waters, during the last war, became the unmolested resort of the British Navy, and our shores the scene of the enemy’s depredations. Is it not wise, while you may, to provide a- gaiust tlie recurrence ufevils which have been thus once experienced ? Deduct the expenditures for the objects wc have enumerated, to noue of which will the Ultras venture specifically to object, and what expenditure remains, to winch the charge of prodigality can attach ? Why, the sum of about tivo millions and a half of dollars, not as much in amount as the reve nue derived, in the last year, from the sales of Public Lands alone, and about one tenth of the whole amount of the revenue. This sum covers all the Civil and Diplomatic ex. penditures of the government, including mis cellaneous charges aud contingent ex peaces, and even the ex ponce of carrying on the Public Buildings. Here, surely, is no p:m!i HUltVEYOR-GFNERAL8 OFFICE, MUledgttille, 9th May, 1820.
