Lataitettk.—By the Ibllowing extract of a letter from Washington, dated on tho 11th inst. it will be seen that the Guest of the Nation will arrive in the city of Savan nah on the twentieth of next month, and that his stay with us will not extend beyond two or three days, at the furthest. Wo copy it from the Constitutionalist “ I saw this morning accidentally, a list of the places through which General La fayette proposes to pass on his Southern Journey. He will probably reach Charles ton by the 17th March. He will leave this on the 24th inst. His arrival in Savannah, is arranged to be on the 20th March, Au gusta 23d, Wurrenton, 24th, Sparta and Milledgeville 25th, Fort Hawkins 26th, Fort Mitchell 2l)th. Not having seen the General, lately I am not able to say positively, that his plans are fixed, but suppose the above information is correct.” Georgia Claims.—After two days dis cussion in the House of Representatives, on the subject of the claims of this state, upon the general government for services per formed by the militia of Georgia in 1792, 1793 and 1794, they have been rejected.— These claims have been before Congress thirty years. They were brought up at this session, and ably supported by Col. Tatt nall, and Mr. Forsvth, but in vain.— They were rejected on the grounds, 1st. schools ; and 348 officiating priests. Two Russian officers are now in Eng land, inspecting the improvements in ruads, dock-yards, bridges, die. Proposals have been issued in Edinburgh for the formation of a Scottish Union Ban king Company, with a capital of two mil lions. From the alarm excited among proprie tors of canals connected with Birmingham, by the projected rail-road from that town to Liverpool, the Old Birmingham Canal shares have fallen £IU0, and other canals have been more or less affected. The committee of operative weavers in Glasgow state, in one oftheir reports, that, according to the estimate ofa well-informed man, the value of goods manufactured in that city from stolen materials, is not less than £90,000 per annum.

Tho Chile paper El Liberal of Sept. 4, contains— 1. A note from the Minister Plenipotenti ary of the United States, to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, dated Santiago, August 4, in which lie complans that the subjects of United Slates and other foreigners are pro hibited by the laws of Chile from the free exercise of their religion, and even the rites of burial, and lie, therefore, according to his duly, calls the attention of the Go vernment of Chile to the necessity of re medying this grievance by a law waich shall ensure them the enjoyment of the privi leges to which they arc accustomed, and thus remove all grounds fur future com plaints. 2. A letter from Mr. Canning, dated April 23, to the Consul Gcndral in Chile, desiring him to require frum the Govern ment of Chile, fur the subjects ofliis Britan nic Majesty, not only the enjoyment of ci vil rights, but the freedom of religious wor ship ; these civil rights arc, “ freedom of persons und property, against every act of the government emanating frum political relations with other countries or poli- litical dissensions at home ; and principally exemption from personal military service, and from every impost which does not fall on the general mass. Thu free oxerciso of their religion, and the decent celebration of the rites of sepulture, are equally indispen sable to the tranquillity and welfare uf the members of a Christian community. On the other hand, his .Majesty’s subjects are to avoid all ostentatious display of thoir re ligious worship—to behave ill a peaceable and orderly manner—to respect the laws, customs, and civil and religious institutions of the Government under the protection of which they live; and the Government of Chile may be assured that any of his sub jects acting otherwise, and in a manner of fensive to the Government and people of Chile, will incur his Majesty’s serious dis pleasure.” Pompeii—Mr. Taylor, who is engaged in his researches at Pompeii, in a fatter to iiis friend, Mr. Nodier, dated Pompeii, Nov. 16,1824, says “ In one of the rooms of those baths (speaking of some hot baths recently discovered,) my attention lias been particularly attracted by three seats made of bronze, ofa form entirely unknown, and in the highest state of preservation.

This sum amounts It appears by paragraphs in some of the papers, that M’Aduin’s system of laying roads and streets, has completely failed in London—-the continued rain having pene trated them in the great thoroughfares. A gentleman, who styles himself Doctor, spontaneously waived any claim they might be supposed to have had, to furnish a Mem ber of the Cabinet of the President Elect. The Slave Trade.-—A report wan pre sented to the House of Representatives on the 16th instant, from the committee on has advertised in the London papers for re- that part of President’s Message which re- storing lost appetite, which he kindly prom otes to the slave trade. The report ap- ises to distribute gra//* to the poor.

The first order on the records ofthe East India Company for the importation of tea appears in the year 1667—R. It is thus ex pressed: “Send home by these ships 100 lbs. weight of the best teg that you can gett."

William IIenrv Harrison, formerly a representative in Congress, previously Gov ernor of Indiuna, and Commander on the North West frontier during the late war, has been chosen a Senator of the United States from the State of Ohio, to succeed Mr. Brown, whose present term of servico will expire on the 3d day of March next. General Armstrong is said to be enga ged in writing a history of tho American Revolution, and Mr. Cooper, the novelist,a history of the American Navy. A hill lias passed butli houses of the Le gislature of New-York, providing for the choice of presidential electors by districts. It passed the Senate unanimously, and the house, with but four negative votes. Havti At Jacquemcl, on the 20th Jan uary, in consequence of the immediate ex pectation of the blockade of the port, the business of the crop was suspended to make preparations for defence. I have taken off the neck ofthe skeleton a necklace, the workmanship of which is ab solutely miraculous. I assure you that our most skilful jewellers could make nothing more elegant, or of a better taste. It has all the beautiful workmanship ofthe Moor ish jewels which I examined at Granada, und ofthe same designs which are to be found in the dresses ofthe Moorish women, and ofthe Jewesses ofTetuan, on the const of Africa. The bracelets form a single ring, and are so perfectly resembling each other, that one would suppose them manu factured by the same artist. The principal hall of the baths is covered with beautiful ornaments, and the cornice is supported by an infinite number of small figures in alto- relievo of a very original character. It is difficult to describe the charm that one feels in touching these objects on the very spot where they have stood for ages, and before the illusion is entirely destroyed. One of the windows was covered with magnificent, glass, which has just been deposited in the Museum of Naples." Congressional Proceeuingb.-—In Scn- on Tuesday, Feb. 15th, Mr. Van Boren, from the Judiciary Committee, to whom was referred the bill from the House of Re presentatives to provide more effectually for the punishment of certain crimes against the United States, and for other purposes, reported the same with sundry amendments. The Senate then resumed the considera- otion ofthe bill “ further to amend the Ju diciul system of the United States, and to provide for three additional Circuit Courts. A motion for indefinite postponement was loBt, 16 to 23. In the House of Representatives, the fol lowing resolution, offered the preceding day by Mr. Livingston, was taken up for con sideration, and after some remark, laid on the table :— Resolved.That the Secretary ofthe Trea sury be directed to lay before this House, a detailed account containing the names of tho several persons to whom the unclaimed dividends of the funded debt of the United States appear to be due, the amount due to each, the species of stock on which they have grown due, the period since which the dividend has not been claimed; and that lie also state the names ofthe persons, and their residence, who have for more than two years received the dividends of any stock under the same power of a!tunny, together with the name of the stockholders i whom they appear respectively to have re presented. izatiuli ofthe Indian tribes, was taken up, and made the special order uf the day tor Friday ensuing, and On motion uf Mr. Benton, the hill fur tho occupation of the Columbia River, was made the special order for Monday. The Senate then again took up, in com mittee ofthe whole, (Sir. King of Alabama, in the Chair,) the bill to amend the Judi cial System of the U nited States, and for the appointment of three additional Circuit Judges, (in the Western Slates.) the ques tion pending being on the recommitment of the bill to the Judiciary committee. The motion was lost, tlio Senate being equally divided. M r. Tazewell, then, for the purpose, he said, of trying the sense of the Senate on the most important feature of the bill, mo ved so to amend it as to provide that the three additional circuit judges shall not be justices of the supremo court. The Senate, on motion of Mr. Findlay, adjourned before a decision. In the House, Mr. Govan, from a Select Committee, to whom was referred so much ofthe President’s Message as relates to the Slave Trade, made a report on that subject —which was referred to a committee ofthe whole on the State of the Uniun, and made the order of the day for the ensuing Mon day. The resolution offered by Mr. Morcer, in relation to slave ships in Alabama ; that offered by Mr. Brent, in relation to stone for the fortifications in Chesapeake Bay ;— and that offered by Mr. Stewart, in relation toplacing certain Surveys in the Library of Congress, were severally taken up and adopted. The House then proceeded to the unfin ished business of yesterday. The resolution ofthe Committee of Mil itary Affairs, rejecting those claims, was concurred in by the House. [This question was, in effect, decided yesterday, when the House refused to recommit the report.] Mr. Hamilton moved that the House take up the bill providing for the Massachusetts Militia Claims, and, with a view to ascer tain whether it was the determination of the House to act on that subject at the present session at all, he demanded the yeas and nays on his motion. The House refus ed to order the yeas and nays—and the mo tion was negatived. Extract of a letter, dated, Marseilles, Dec. 29, 1824 “ It is very important, that all vessels coming to this port from the U- nited States should havo a French consu lar certificate to their bill of health for the sake of short quarantine.” Mexico.—We are indebted to the polite ness of a respectable merchant of this city for the annexed cxtrract from a letter da ted Alvarauo, Jan. 8, 1825.—A few days ago the schooner Susan, Captain Newman, from your port was brought in here as a prize, on the charge of having been bound w ith supplies to the Castle. On the same day, 3d inst. another schr. under Amerionn colours name unknown,an- chored between the city of Vera Cruz and tho Castle, and is said to have been sunk at her moorings by a firefrom the city—the Castle opened its batteries against the city and the firing continued twenty-four hours. To-day, we are informed that another prize, Baltimore schooner, name and where from unknown, has been made near the Castle.
