patriots, augurs well for the national cause.—
The Polish army is organizing with astonish
ing rapidity* anu will amount to 100,000 men.
It is rumored that Wilna, tho capital of Lithu
ania, is in the same state as Warsaw ; and the
Rector of the University of Wilna, who had
sold himself to Russia, has been hanged. If
the last account be true, the four principal
points in the north, Warsaw, Koenigsberg,
Wilna and Leopoldstadt, have already pro
claimed principles of liberty.”
The London Globe of the 18th, in speaking
of this revolution, says :
“ No distinct and complete account can yet
be given of its immediate causes and its pro
gress, still less can any anticipation be indulg
ed in ns to its final result. It has been com
menced...that is manifest....with great gallant
ry and enthusiasm. It is apparent, also, that
the Poles do not reckon upon its being confin
ed to that part of their country which was un
der the Kmperor of Russia as a nominal king
dom. They hope for, or will not refuse, the
aid of Posen and Galicia, which are subject to
Prussia and Austria, and form the shares of
those powers of the spoils of tho partition.—
The Poles, therefore, must have taken the re
solution to bravo the three groat military pow
ers who surround theiP territory. Whether
they have made any calculation as to their
means of maintaining this struggle....one thing
is in their favor, that they eanuot be attacked
for some months, for a winter campaign on
the Niemen, without magazines, and amidst a
hostile population, can scarcely be thought
of by Russia. And in these times, what chan
ges may not a few mouths hring in favor of a
nation determined to be free ?”
Such are not the opinions at Berlin, where
the news of this insurrection found General
Count Dicbitseh. The necessary military in
structions were immediately seat from Merlin
for occupying the Polish frontiers : and Count
Diebistch was to leave on the 3th. The Prus
sian Stale Gazette says :
As ho will find the Russian troops, which
were offered to our Court as auxiliaries in a
certain case, already assembled, the insurrec
tion will probably be quelled before three
weeks are passed. In this view we may look
forward with tranquillity. Rut how much mis
chief, destruction and confusion is inevitable
upon such events ! Prussia and Austria will,
no doubt, send troops into those parts of Po
land which were allotted to them at the time
of partition. The Prussian General Grolman
has already set out to form a junction at Glo-
gan, with the divison of the army of the Oder,
which is about to enter the Grand Duchy of
Posen (Prussian Poland).”
From the London Times of Dee. 18.
Horae of the French papers ring with the
praises of Marshal Soult for throwing his en
ergy, talents, and activity, into the business of
the War Department. All tire languor which
used to prevail in the bureaux and corridors
of the war-office is said to have disappeared.
There is notv much less writing, but more de
cision, than in any former Ministry. The pa
pers prepared by clerks are not so voluminous,
but the highways are covered with recruits,
& the garrisons are filling with defenders and
provisions. The young conscripts are not now
led along the roads by gendarmes, but pro
ceed to their respective depots, singing the
Marseillois Hymn. To many of the corps,
volunteers o.'Fer themselves in such abundance,
that choice is the only difficulty. In the coun
try, so great is tlve enthusiasm of the people
for warlike exercises under such a minister,
that the peasants make the management of
arms, and the discipline of a march, their com
mon pastimes. In short, every where is seen
n preparation for war, and an ambition lor mi
litary glory.
THE RECORDER.

THURSDAY, FEB. 17, 1831.
developcmcnt of the gold region of the United
States was illustrated, by referring to tho in
crease cf the annual receipts from N. Carolina,
which, previously to 1811, had been inconsi
derable; but from that year to 1840, inclusive,
had advanced from 0,000 to g 118,000 ; and
Accounts from Mexico, to the Sd ult. (says
tils New-York Gazette of the 2d inst.) repre
sent that country as continuing in a gloomy
and unsettled state. It is mentioned that a
letter from the President of the United States
bad been presented to Vice-President, Busta-
MKtrrE, by Mr. BnTLFH, in reply to one de
livered to President Jackson by Mr. Tornf.l,
Mexican Minister in the United States. The
Mexican Sol informs, that the Congress of
Central America had a resolution before them,
U celebrate the French Revolution—“the tri
umph of liberal principles over the system of
absolute power.” The deputy by whom the
motion was made, stated, that be reserved to
himself, to offer, at another time, propositions
to express by a special decree, a sense of gra
titude to the uew Government of France, to
Gen. Lafayette, and the principal actors, in
bringing about the late brilliant event.
The Sol remarks, that the change in France
will doubtless prove highly favorable to the
new American Republics.
Influence of Temperance Societies It is
known from the official returns, that the do
mestic distilled spirits in the city of New-York,
amounted in 1823, to 111,504 casks; in 1829,
to 70,910 casks; being 31,591 casks less in
1820 than in 1828 ; gay near 40 per cent, more
in 1828 than in 1829.
From official returns, tho inspection of fo
reign spirits in the city, of New-York in 1828,
amounted to 2,025,705 gallons; in 1820, to
1,805,888, being a falling off of 1,220,987 gal
lons—the importation ot 1828 exceeding those
of 1819 rising 75 per cent.
It is calculated from the returns, that in
1829 the diminution of foreign spirits, pas
sing tlirough the city of New-York, for do
mestic consumption, amounted to i,471,718
gallons, costing at the wholesale price as ma
ny dollars. Of domestic spirits, the diminu
tion has been about (wo millions of gallons,
worth at first cost at least $ 500,000—the whole,
making a saving to the community of about
two millions of dollars at the wholesale price;
but at the retail price, as gencraly dealt out,
who can estimate the saving 1 When we look
at this return, and at the lessened use of this
wretched stuff, may we not be permitted to as
cribe to this change of habits in our state, the
unexampled prosperity which prevails through
out every branch of industry ?—Albany Argus.

Lost in the Woods.—In Kirkland, Me. a Mr.
Potter and family lately built a log camp in the
woods east of l’ushaw Pond. On the 1st inst.
Mrs. P. being alone with her children, sent
them into the woods to look for her cow they
were lost, and she in looking for them, lost
herself. Her husband returned at night, and
searched for them all. He found the children,
but nothing was seen of Mrs. P. till next day,
when she was found dead, her feet naked, much
bruised and torn. She had waded through
four feet of water, and her clothes were nearly
torn off.

A COINCIDENCE.
In 1483, daring the civil war in France,
William Armaud, Viscount Polignac, raised
the standard of rebellion, but was soon after
wards arrested. It was a Gen. Lafayette whom
the King sent against him, aud who took pos
session of his chateau. Is it not strange, that
now, after three centuries and a half, a Lafay
ette should again have overthrown a Polignac.
(Perris Paper.
The condition of Europe, at the date of our
Intest information from it, was particularly in
teresting. The insurrection or revolution in
Poland has renewed the expectation of a ge
neral war. which, before the occurrence of
that event, had began to subside. The princi
pal powers, France, Russia and Great Britain,
while they hold out the idea of preserving
peace, are actively engaged in preparing for
war. From her compactness, great populati
on, wealth, intelligence and military character,
France is probably the most powerful king
dom on the globe. Her disasters and humili
ations during the last years of Napoleon’s
reign—the capture of her proud Capital twice
within a short period—reduced ns she was to
the necessity of receiving, at the point of the
bayonet, a Sovereign whom she detested—com-
pqlled to make with her cruel enemies such a
pcaee as they chose to dictate ; forced to pay
them a large amount of money, and to give up
the trophies of former victories—These are e-
vents in the history of France, galling to the
pride of her chivalrous people, and which they
can neither forget nor forgive. Having recover
ed from the exhaustion produced by the de
structive wars of Napoleon, they are now appa
rently more than willing to try once more their
strength in arms—to revenge themselves on
Austria, Prussia and Russia, and to make them
feel some of the evils inflicted on France by
the Holy Alliance. We have no doubt this
is the common feeling of Frenchmen, and that
they will glory in an opportunity of meeting
in conflict, on any thing like equal terms, those
ruthless invaders of their country, whom they
have more than once overcome in battle.

From the proceedings of Congress, which
we have copied into our paper it will be per
ceived, that the Senate of the U. States on the
2(1 instant, by a vote of 23 to 20, refused to
grant leave for the introduction of a resolution,
declaring that the charter of the Bank of the
U. States ought not to be renewed. This ap

subject, at the present time, in at icast one

The constitutionality of the Tax upon the
Dividends of the Rank of the United States,
passed at the late session of the Legislature of
this State, was brought up before the Court of
Appeals on Thursday last, and the argument
concluded yesterday forenoon. The question
is stated to have been most ably argued by
lluoii S. Legake, Esq. Attorney General, on
the part of the State, and by Thomas S.
Gkimke, and I. E. Holmes, Esqrs. in oppo
sition to the right of the State to Tax. It will

PROM Tnr. ITHACA (n. r.) JOURNAL.
It might naturally he supposed, from the vi
olent abuse which is lavished upon the State
of Georgia, by a class of mischievous politi
cians whose object must be to create ilissen-
lions and finally divide the Union, conformably
to the Hartford Convention plan, in conse
quence of that state claiming and exercising
the right of jurisdiction over the Indian tribes
ithin her limits, that Georgia is the or:j state
hieh has claimed and exercised such jurisdic
tion. On the contrary, that attribute of state
sovereignly has never, until recently, been se
riously denied by any class of American citi
zens. It has been exercised by almost every
state in the Union, and by none more uniform
ly and efficiently than by the slate of New-
York. The question has, indeed, been rais
ed iu this state, and settled by our Judicial and
legislative tribunals. The case of Tommy
Jemmy, convicted of murder in Erie county,
in the year 1821, is parallel to that of Tassels,
lately executed in Georgia. The question of
jurisdiction was raised on the trial; the case
was removed to the Supreme Court, and from
thence to the Court of F.rrors. Strong opini
ons were given in the former tribunal, by Judge
Spencer, and in the latter by Chancellor Kent,
confirming the jurisdiction of the state. The
murder having been committed tinder the pre
text of punishing for witchcraft, conformably
to the Indian superstition and custom, our le
gislature deemed the convict a proper subject
for pardon; and in passing a law for that pur
pose, embraced the occasion most clearly and
positively to assert the right of jurisdiction and
sovereignty over the Indian tribes, tc as great
an extent at least as it has ever been claimed
or exercised by the state of Georgia. No fac
tion then interposed its hypocritical com
plaints, nor was the Supreme Court of the U.
States then urged to interfere. Had they done
so, in the same manner, can there be a doubt
that their pretensions would have been met by
the government and people of the state of
Now-Yorkin the same spirit that they are now
met by those of Georgia?

MINT OF THE UNITED STATES.
From the annual report of the Director of the

Washington, Jan. 31.
In the Senate, on Saturday, the Chair an
nounced a memorial from sundry inhabitants
of Philadelphia, praying for a reduction of the
duties on iron ; and it was referred to a select
committee, consisting of Messrs. Ilnyue, Dick
erson, King, Bell, and Tyler. A memorial
was also presented by the President, from sun
dry citizens of New Jersey, complaining of
the high duties on articles used in ship build
ing, and praying for their reduction. A De
bate ensued on the motion of Mr. Dickerson
to refer this memorial to the Committee on
Manufactures, and the motion of Mr. Ilayne
to refer it to the Committee on Commerce; in
hich the first motion was advocated by
Messrs. Dickerson and Font; aud opposed by
Messrs. Hayne, Renton, Woodburv, King and
Silsbec.
The hour of twelve o’clock having arrived,
the memorial was, on motion of Mr. Webster,
laid on the table
The bill reported by Mr. Davis of S. Caro
lina, from the Committee on the Judiciary, to
repeal the 25th section of the Judiciary act,
subjecting the decrees or judgments of State
Courts to the revision of the Supreme Court of
the United SlatA, was the first business taken
up in the House.—Mr. Crawford called for the
previous question upon it; and the call being
sustained, the main question was put, and the
bill was, upon a division by yeas and nays, re.
jected by a vote of 137 to 51.
The resolution introduced by Mr. Haynes,
for the reduction of the duties on brown sugar
imported into tho United States, was. upon the
motion of Mr. White of Louisiana, postponed
until Wednesday next.
The resolution moved by Mr. Hodges on
the subject of the capture of an American
vessel by a Portuguese squadron off Terceira,
was taken up ; aud on the suggestion of Mr.
Wickliffe, modified as follows—
Resolved, That the President of the United
States be requested to inform this House what
measures have been taken by the Executive in
relation to the capture on the 4lh July, 1820,
of the ship Galatea, late of the port of New
Redford, by a Portuguese naval squadron, then
blockading the island of Terceira; and also
in relation to the. imprisonment and robbery of
the crew of said ship, and to the capture of
other American vessels under the same order
of blockade
Resolved, That the President be requested to
lay before this House any correspondence that
may have been had touching this matter, with
in the knowledge or possession of the Presi
dent, not incompatible with the public inter
est. The resolution was agreed to.

The High Court of Impeachment yester
day pronounced judgment upon the article of
Impeachment exhibited by the House of Re
presentatives against James H. Peck, District
Judge of the United States for the District of
Missouri. We have never witnessed a more
dignified proceeding ir. any public body than
thatby which this question was decided. The
article of Impeachment being first read, and
the assembled multitude on the floor and in
the galleries hushed to the profoumlcst silence,
the Senators were called upon in succession,
and the question, put distinctly to each Sena
tor, by the presiding officer, each Senator ris
ing in his place, as called, and answering
“Guilty” or “Not Guilty !” When every Se
nator present had solemnly answered, the Pre
sident of the Senate cose and announced that
twenty-two Senators had pronounced the res
pondent Not Guilty, and tipenty-one had pro
nounced him Guilty. Two-thirds of the Se
nators not having affirmed the presentment of
the House of Representatives, Judge Peck
was of course declared to be Acquitted of the
article of Impeachment preferred against him
by the House of Representatives : and then
the Court was adjourned by proclamation sine
die.—Nat. Int.
February 2....It will be seen by the month
ly statement of the Bank of the United States
for the last month, which we have inserted in
a preceding column, that the amount of Spe
cie in the vaults of the Rank and the Branch
es, on the first day of the year, was more than
10,800.000 dollars. On turning to the cor
responding monthly statement of last year, we
find that the amount of Specie then in the
vaults was £7,008,078 90. There has been
an increase of the Specie in the vaults of the
Rank, therefore, within the last three months,
of g 3,200,000. Indeed, so great is the confi
dence at present in the paper currency, that
Specie has become a drug. The Rank of the
United States, at least, is certainly overbur
dened with it ....lb.

February 7.—The Senate did not sit on
aturday.
In the House of Representatives, Mr. Hunt,
from the committee on Public Lands, reported
a bill authorising the State of Missouri, to
sell certain lands reserved for the support of
schools and other public objects ; which was
read twice, and postponed until this day.—
Mr. Wickliffe. from the Committee on Public
Lands, reported a bill explanatory of the act
passed last year, for tho benefit of the officers
and soldiers of the Virginia State line during
the war of the revolution. It was read twice,
and postponed till Wednesday. Mr. Wick-
Hffe, from the same committee, introduced a hill
for the final adjustment of certain land claims
in Louisiana; which was also read a first and
seeend time, and deferred till this day. A va
riety of other bills and reports were presented
and acted upon ; among the former of which
was a bill reported by Mr. Everett, of Mass.,
from the select commute on the subject, for a
grant of land to the asylum for the blind in Bos
ton. It was read twice, committee to a com
mute of the Whole on the state of the Union,
and ordered to be printed. Mr. Johnson, of
Kentucky, submitted a resolution for the pur
chase of 216 copies of the debates on the a-
doption of the Federal Constitution in 1787,
and for the printing of an extra copy of the
reports of the House, for tho use of the mfitn-
upon the table, upon a division by yens and
nays, by a vote of 145 to 41. The bills pre
viously ordered for engrossment, were read a
third time, and passed; and the remainder of
the day was devoted to the consideration of
private bills—Telegraph.
February 8.—In the Senate, yesterday, a
report was received front the Postmaster Gene
ral, prepared in obedience to a resolution of
the last session of Congress, giving a list of
contracts made by the Post Office Department,
together with the number and compensations
of the clerks employed in that Department;
which was, on motion of Mr. Grundy, referred
to the Committee on the Post Office and Post
Roads, with a view to a selection of such parts
of it as it would be proper to have printed.—
Mr. Brown, in pursuance of tiotice given, intro
duced a hill to reduce the duties on sugar;
which was rea l twice, and referred to the Com
mittee on Manufactures. Mr. Benton gave
notice that lie would, to-day, ask leave to bring
in a bill to repeal the duty on alum salt.* The
il dollars annually to
hill granting six thousam
the Seneca tribe of Indians, was read the third
time, and passed. The resolution of Mr.
Grundy, restricting tho select committee ap
pointed to inquire into the condition of the Post
Office Department, front examining persons
dismissed from that Department, as to the cau
ses of (heir removal, was taken up; and Mr.
Holmes having concluded his remarks in oppo
sition to the resolution, was followed by Mr.
Grundy, who argued in its support until three
o'clock, when tho Senate adjourned. Mr.
Grundy, it is supposed, will resume his re
marks to day.
In the House of Representatives, yesterday,
a more than usual number of petitions and me
morials were presented ; among the latter of
which was one submitted by Mr. Coleman,
from Kentucky, soliciting the loan, free of in
terest, of $ 80,000, for the use of the Mays-
ville and Lexington turnpike road company.—
After the transaction of some further business
of a private nature, Mr. Mallary moved that
the report of the Committee on Manufactures,
accompanying the hill to repeal so much of
the act passed last session, as reduced the du
ty on salt from 15 to 10 cents per bushel, after
the first January last, be printed. Mr. Carson
objected to the motion. Mr. Chilton also ob
jected to the printing of this report, for various
reasons. It was decidedly of an ex parte char
acter; and so far as the House had been in
formed, presented no views on the subject that
had not been again and again urged before the
House and the nation; it was ill-timed; the
object of every man who was sincorely desir
ous of promoting thejiarinony, the peace and
happiness of the country, should be to heal,
not arouse and irritate, the excitement that ex
isted on the subject of this report in a large
section of the country; and he hoped that eve
ry eflbrt to fan the flSme of discord by dissemi
nating this document, ami to oppress still fur
ther a majority of the people of this country, by
increasing this obnoxious duty, would meet, as
it deserved, the disapprobation of the House;
and he trusted that the motion to print the re
port might sleep forever with the hill which
accompanied it—on the table. The motion
to lay on the table was rejected, however, on
a division by yeas and nays, by a vote of ayes
38, noes 100; and the report was ordered to
be printed. A variety of bills were reported ;
after which, 6,000 copies of the report of the
select committee on the subject of the distri
butionof the surplus revenue, were ordered to
be printed. The resolution of Mr. White, of
New-York, for the printing of 3,000 extra co
pies of the report relative to the repeal of the
25th section of the judiciary act, (the section
which renders the judgments or decrees of
State Courts subject to the revision, affirmati
on, or revisal of the Supreme Court of the U.
States,) was taken up; and after some discus
sion, in which Messrs. Buchanan, Haynes,
Doddridge, and Gurdon took part, was agreed

CHURCH AND STATE.
Tho constitutional charter of France ha*
wisely separated religion, as an establishment,
from the State. This is an example which
other nations must, sooner or later, adopt. It
is necessary for the interests of religion itself,
which is injured and degraded when allied
with political machinery. No religion ought
to be encouraged which cannot stand for it
self; if it require the prop of human laws, it
cannot be a true religion. It must be nothing
more than a pretext for patronage, a secular
institution created by men for their own world
ly purposes, and a continued insu.lt to the Dei
ty. The religion which has powor to attract
and fix men’s minds, will exercise that power
without the assistance of legislators, and will
be infinitely better cultivated if left to its
course. The poorer the ministers of the gos
pel are, the better they will instruct the rich,
the better attend to the spiritual wants of their
needy fellow creatures. This is a subject up
on which England has much to learn, and will
not have a little to do. But the day for the
business has not yet arrived, though we can
perceive the faint gleaming of its daw n.

Counterfeiters.—David and James Brown
were taken into custody on Saturday, having
in their possession between thirty and forty
thousand dollars counterfeit bills on the Unit
ed States Rank at Philadelphia, and the brunch
at New-York, and a considerable amount of
genuine bill*. Three other persons suspect
ed of being connected with them, are also in
custody ; but as they have not been examin
ed, and as no spurious money whs found upon
them, their names are withheld. They will all
be examined before the mayor to-morrow morn

Virginia—In 1790 the “Ancient Domin
ion” contained within her boundaries one fifth
of the whole political power of the Confedera
tion ; was twice as large as Nem-York, and
one third larger than Pennsylvania. But the
tables are now turned. Her political weight
in the scale will be just one half that of New-
York, in the Congress under the new census,
and one third less than that of Pennsylvania.
She will have to take rank with Ohio, a State
that was not in existence when ahe was in the
zenith of Iter prosperity.
