sent question.
M. Maugum began by expressing a similar
opinion to that of M. Berryer. with regard to the
vessels seized in the Spanish ports, and the treaty
of ltilO. The hot), deputy, in alluding to what
had been asserted in a previous part of the debate
hytlie M mister ol Foreign Affairs, that the Govern
ment of the Kestoiation was on the point ol grant
iog an indemnity to the Government of the United
States, said lie would repeat an expression which,
in his opinion, did honor to a man now in misfor
tune. Tlie lion, deputy stated that being one of
the commission charged with interrogating Frince
Folignnc, when confined in the castle of Vin
cennes, he had heard him in the intervals ol exam
ination, when the members of the commission and
the fallen minister were engaged in speaking on
miscellaneous subjects, say, on the American
claims being mentioned, "'Fake care, I have stu
died that <| nest ion, and we owe nothing to the
United States.” I repeat, l.e uttered this lan
guage with so profound a feeling of nationality,
that I fell it impossible to resist its impression.—
I sba.l add, s *id the lion, deputy, that in the se
cret corresp ndence relative to the affairs ol the
east, which I have seen, the sentiments recorded
there by Prince Polignac were frank, nr hie, and
altogether worthy of a Fieuchiuan. (Fxclama-
sions from the centre,)
The Minister ol Foreign affairs said that lie
must regret that the name of Prince Polignac was
introduced into the discussion. The Minister ad
ded, that Prince Polignac had positively admitted
the right of America loan indemnity, and that
what he said to M. Maugum, must have been in a
general and vague manner, or otherwise he would
be in contradiction with himself.

which were lost aimdst cries of 44 Question” the
Chamber proceeded to ballot <

prises, where they risked all to gain something.—
With regard to lhe importance of the cession of
Louisiana, the honorable deputy observed that our
rights to that territory were contested, and might
not have been eventually recognized. It was
therefore not any thing in possession that we gave
up : we only abandoned a doubtful lawsuit; and
what did we obtain in exchange !—a real and so
lid advantage, in a considerable diminution of du-
lies upon our wines, which has led to an immense
extension of our commerce. These diminutions
have been, according to the various qualities of
wines from 42f. to 30f. from 2If. to 14f. and from
1 If. to Gf. and these lessened duties were to have
been still further diminished one-half at the end
of March, 1884.
The incontestable advantages resulting from
these diminutions will he at first 800.000f. a year;
and will afterwards rise, to 1,000,000 francs. The
honorable deputy, after insisiing upon the im
mense commercial advantages resulting from our
relations with America, contended that we should
be particularly desirous to act with justice and
equity towards that country, to whose increasing*
prosperity and importance there seemed to be no
limit. The honorable deputy, in resuming, said
it was not till after the most strict calculations had
been made, that theprosenr treaty was entered into;
th t the same strictness of calculation had not been
practised by those who opposed the projet; and
that therefore he (the honorable deputy,) foreseeing
tho disastrous consequences to French commerce
which would most likely follow the rejection of
the project, could not hesitate between hypocriti
cal objections and positive facts, and must there
fore, not wishing to be responsible lor the results
of a rejection of the projet, vote for its adoption.
M. SnJvcrtc contended that the arguments draw h
from the injury that might ensue to our commerce
from the rejection of the projet, appeared to him
of no weight. He had, he said, a belter opinion
of the wisdom of the Government of the United
Neiv-Yorl, May 7.

The Niger Expedition —Accounts of this
expedition up to the 5th January, have been re
ceived. At that date Lander was on hoard tlie
Curlew ship of war, on his way to Cape Coast
Castle, for the purpose of procuring a jnrlicu'ar
species of goods for the mnikets in the interior,
of which he had not previously taken a sufficient
supply. If successful in this object, it was his
intention to return to the mouth of the Nun;
thence to ascend the Niger for the third time, and
endeavor to penetrate as far up the river ns Bous--
sin. Previous to his last return lo the const, Lnnd-
der. and Lieut. Allen had fortunately reached
Kabbah, or Rabin, (a large Falatah town) in the
iron steamboat; and, for the space of thirteen or
fourteen days, had maintained a friendly inter
course, & carried on an advantageous trade with its
inhabitants.—The depth of water at that place was
between two and three fathoms, and far as could he
seen beyond it, the Niger was free from rocks, and
other obstructions, and assumed a majestic and
very encouraging apoearance. To is important
town is inhabited by Falatabs and negroes, reali
zed the expectations thatlind been formed of it, a*
regards its extent, its wealth, and its population.
A few Tunricks, from the borders of the desert,
arul other Arabs, were observed by our country
men in the streets of Kabbah.
Another important feature is, our travelers as
cended the River Tshadda ns high as 150 miles
from the junction with the Niger. At that point,
and at some distance below & above it, the river was
found to he intersected with islands, and compar
atively shallow, alternately becoming broad and
narrow, in proportion as us channel was free from
or obstructed by these islands. No traces of in
habitants appeared on the hanks of this river; and
Lander and his valuable coadjutor were compell
ed to return to the Niger for want of provisions. A li
the natives in this part of the country agree in the
assertion that the Tshadda communicates with
Lake Tshnd, the inland sea of Africa. They do
not hazard this as a mere conjecture, but state it
with confidence as a well known and undisputed
fact. On a small island near Attn, Lander lias e-
reeled a kind of mud fort, which will answer tlie
purpose of a depot for British goods. This place
lias b*cn named English Island, and it possesses
peculiar facilities for trading purposes, in that part
of the country.

her two daughters at a celebrated hoarding school.—
Louisa was It! and Ellen If yenr> of age. There were
musical parties of both sexes, once a week at tho Aca

the adjoining town, named Harris and Benson.
Perhaps it is needless to remark, that Louisa and El
len, possessing superior endowments of mind and great
beauty of person, very soon attracted the earnest atten
tion of the two young merchants. The latter were af
terwards received by Mrs. Price, as suitors for her
daughters. In June, 1831, a large sum of money was
left to the young ladies by tlieir uncle, un condition nf
their remaining single till the age nf25. Mrs. Price
would lint give her consent to their marriage, ‘.ill the
provisions of their uncle’s will were roinpbed with.—
