received at too late an hour last night for insertion this
rooming, but shall have a place in our next.
The Fair yesterday eras truly splendid and well conduc
ted. The beauty and variety of tho articles offered were
only excelled by tho appearance of the fair vendors whoso
labor produced them* Indeed jhoro was no withstand
ing the inducements oflerod to twloee© tho puwo-M ring*
«von of tho most penurious. The room, notwithstand
ing showers of rain in the morning, was filled until late
At night, with an immense crowd of gay spectators
tnd purchasers, among whom tho ladies appeared to
JUve arrayed themselves in all their charms for the
Occasion. Tho scene was one of almost Eastern mag
nificence, and few led it without gratification qnd delight.
Tho receipts arc estimated at about £3,500.

The British Consul General to Colombia, Mr. Hen-
«h fson, and tho Muxican Consul, Col. Torrens, were

on tho 7th instant, for Washington.
Poht of Havre,—The following rommcreial regula
tions we translate from the Journal tin Havre :—
In order to meet the expenses of the Works in tho har
bor of Havre, tho government has been induced to rai«o
ihc Basins duty on all vessels entering into the port,
4jpOQ t> |lll>pvil|u.»H, Ul l.iil.H «..,><.IKIKV UiVIIW
can developc tho importance.
All foreign vessels coming info Havre, will pay a duty
«f2I>. and 50 centimes per ton. Thu tonnago duly is,
tv hh regard to foreign vessels, blended with tho Basin*
duty, which waa, previous to the existence of the new
tariff of tho port, enacted separately from them. This
addition of tax Increases but Gtfic tho duty which was,
paid before.
American♦nd Brazilian vo sals, which heretofore’
were tho objects.of a special enactment, that fixed their
f onnago duty at Cfr. per tan, will now pay tho Basin’s
riuty ofSf.and 50c—but this is mado up pariiully to
tljpm In a diminution on the tonnage duty, so that the
increase will be but very trilling.
French vessels employed in extensive coastwise
gjjadc, have to bear an increase ol from 30 to 75 centimes
g!cr ton, which increase, on account of the small profits
derived from (his navigation, may be considered rather
Exorbitant.
IVench vessels in the small coastwise trade, will pay
a duty of30 centimes, in lieu of 15, as heretofore.
But the most strange of all these new enactments, is
that which relates, to vessels that may only call in, which
the tariff considers in no other light than those that are
loading or discharging in the Basin. Were a vessel to
be in tho port 20 hours, or even onchour,shc must pay
the Basins duty for one year—Ilcnco there is no longer
to be a proportionate duly for any vessel in the port of
Havre, with regard to the time she might remain. But
further, if a vessel sa'ds and is compelled to return into
port, were it but for a few hours after her departure, she
mast pay n second time, tho Basins duty, and so on
without regard to the number of times she might he
compelled to return. This measure, which must be
ctnsidcrcd rigorous, even before its effects can be expe
rienced, will cuu*o all vessels departing from that port
to avoid returning. Ports on tho English coast, win re
cgponses areligh’cr titan the Basins duty, will derive
the benefits of the n:w tariff.
Tile following is trai slated from tin* same paper i—
Administration of crimwu’.jmticc in France.—In 1828,
tho Cours d‘Assizes passed upon 0,396 indictments ;—
5,721 were peremptory, and G75 found for contempt of
Court. Of these, 2,845 were acquitted ; and 4,551
condemned, that is to say
To the punishment of death 114
Perpetual labor, 269
Hard labor for given periods of time 1,142
Solitary confinement, 1,223
The Iron collar (wherewith tho malefactor
is fixed to tho post,) 11
Banishment, |
Mild punishments, 1,750
Youths under 1C years of age, sentenced
xo bo kept a certain period of time in a
house of correction, 5.1
Of ihc 114 capitally convicted, 75 worn executed,
otic was killed in prison, and tho remainder were par
dorjed.
The French and English papers Btnfe, (according to
the Journal du Havre,) that tho Emperor Nicholas has
been heard to declare that he never would bo brought
fo acknowledge the usurper Don Miguel.
Mail Robbeuv.—About three o’clock on the mor
ning of the fith instant, at tho first gate, on the Ridge
Turnpike Road, near Philadelphia, tho Reading Mail
stage was stopped by threo armed men, and the passen
ger*, 10 in number, were taken out one by one, tied
find robbed of their watches and about 200 dollars—
Thu mail was also cut open and robbed of its contents.
A reward of 500 dollars 1ms been offered by Mr. lice-
gide, tho agent of tho Genera) Pont Office, for tho sp<
prehension and conviction of the robbers.
Bad Roads—Wo learn from the Albany Daily Ad
vertiser, that the roads between Buffuto and Catarau-
gui Crock are in such a bad atate, that it is impossible
for horses to drag the stage coaches along, and they
were therefore taken off and two yoke qfoxrn put in
their places. The male passengers were also obliged
(o work their passage.
C ut or RpwtANo Sttm-soN,—At the, lute session
of th« ElBngham Superior Court on the 14th inst.-»
question of aomu interest and novelty «M raised In this
cuse. When the Solicitor General was about to submit
thu imlavtiiicnl «j;unit the defendant*,for fitlso Imprison-
meat, to thu Grand Jusy, a challenge to the array was
mado by thair counsel, upon lha ground that the Court
was not disorganized, no vonire for the summoning of
a jury having issued upon the death of Judge Davies,
utul adiseontinuanou of tho former pannd having taken
place by his decease, tho Court cmili) not at the present
Term, proceed to business. • After considerable discus
sion, it was decided by JudgqLaw, that the Legislature
had by tho act of 1805, anticipated and provided for the
contingency which was tho ground of objection, and that
under that law, thu Court was duly organized. No bu
siness of importance occurred. The Grand Jury found
a true bill, and tho 21st of next month is fixed for tho
trio).

Mr. Stevenson being conducted to tho

iu the fallowing terms:
Gentlemen: I receive this renewed and
distinguished proof of the continued confi

feelings of deep sensibility and unaffected

I accept tho trust with an earnest hope that

Tiifc Ifonxr.T.—Reports have been published that
thi.* vessel had returned to tho port of Tampico, whence
*he had been blown off iu the g«ilo of tho 9th ofScptctn-

Piflsaculn, and that a vessel had been despatched to
Tumpico t« tow her to tho former. Acfcnunts howe
ver, to tho 10ih of October, one month after tho gale,
have been renewed at New-York from Tumpico, and
Vera Cruz to tho 23d or 24th of that month, which do
not mention her return to that port. The Pensacola
Gazette, up to the 23th ult. does not mention a word
nhoitt her—so that well founJed apprehensions may be
entertained fi r safety.
A Bill to extend tho jurisdiction of Alabnma over tho
Creek, Cherokee, and Chickasaw Indians,—as also a
resolution requesting the removal of Col. Ciowullfirom
his Agency, are before thu Legislature of that State.
The British Army at the present moment, consists of
140,000 elfoctivo invti, of whom 7,5150 ore officers, that
is to say—
G FieM Marshal-*, 788 Lieutenant Colonels,
110 General-*, 820 Major.*,
250 Lieutenant Generals, 1 ffifl Captains,
2-10 Major Generals, 2,372 Lieutenants,
210 Colonel.*, 1,230 Cornets & Ensign?.
It would appear that there is no such officer known to
the Poaco *»*tnh‘i«hinrnl. as a Brigadier General—an J,

The Columbus Enquirer, of this State, appears in an

Below nre the provision of Mr. Turner (of
Putnam’s) bill to amend the Law of Contempt,
passed on Monday.
See. 1 prevents any Court, on account of
any contempt,’ from imposing a greater fine
than 8*30, or any imprisonment exceeding

See. 2. No Judge, for any contempt offer

affect eases under Militia Laws, or contempts
where witnesses or others refuse to answer.
Sec. 5. Such fines, imprisonments, and
punishments, may, on application, bu remit

Of the importance and responsibility of this
high office, it is unnecessary to speak. It has
justly been.regarded, both in relation to its
elevation and the nature and extent of its du
ties ns one of the most delicate and responsi
ble trusts tinder tho Government! Indeed,
the great increase of legislative business, both
of a public and private nature, (occupying, ns
it duos, so large a portion of the year,) the
number of this House, and tho habit of ani
mated, protracted, and frequent debate, have,
of late, tended very much to render the duties
of the Chair peculiarly arduous to tho indi
vidual who fills it, and of increased impor
tance Jo the public.
How fur it will he in my power to meet tho
expectations of tho House, by an ablo and
enlightened discharge of tho duties of this
high station, it is not for mo to say. Dis
trustful of my own abilities, I can promise
but little else than zeal and fidelity: 1 shall
shrink from the performance of no duty, how
ever painful { shun, no responsibility, howev
er severe ; my time and talents shall be de
voted'to yoar service ; and, in pursuing the
manly and steady course which duty directs,
I shall at least, be cheered end sustained by
a consciousness of tlio purposes, and a con
fidence in the principles, which I shall bring
with me into this arduous service. On
you part, gentlemen, I shall expect and
heed your kind and cordial co-operation,
and that general confidence, without which all
the efforts of authority would bo nugatory ;
and I entreat you to afford me that aid and
support, in maintaining the established rules
and orders of the House, so necessary to the
character and dignity of its deliberations, and
the despatch of tho business of tho nation.
In assembling again to consider the condi
tion of our beloved country, I seize tlm occa
sion to offer you my cordial congratulations
upon its prosperity and happiness, and the
still more exalted destinies that await it.—
Whilst our relations with foreign powers arc
distinguished by alliances and good will,
which servo but t o render our frici d drip more
valuable to each, and more courted by all; cur
situation at home, under tho influence of vir
tuous and pmrtut'x councils, Is peaceful, uni
ted, and happy. How long these blessings
are to bo enjoyed by us, ami secured to our
children, must depend upon the virtue and in
telligence of the people, tho preservation of
our Union, and the virtuous, liberal and on-
lightened administration of our free institu
tions.
That our confederated Republic can only
exist by the ties of common interest, and bro
therly attachment; hy mutual forbearance
and moderation, (collectively nnd individual
ly,) and hy cherishing a devotion to liberty
and Union, must ho apparent to even' cbndiu
mind; and ns our fathers united their coun
cils and their arms; poured nut their blood
and treasure in support of their common
rights; nnd by tho exertions of all, succeeded
in defending the liberties of each, so must we,
if wo intend to continue a free, united, and
hnppy people, profit hy their councils and
emulate their illustrious example.
How much will depend upon tho conduct
and deliberations of tho National Legislature,
and especially of this House, it is not needful
that I should admonish you. I need not, 1
tun sure, remind you, Gcutlemcn, that we are
here the guardians and representatives of our
entire country, and not the advocates of local
and partial interests.
That national legislation, to bo permanent
ly useful, must be just, liberal, enlightened
and impartial. That ours is the high duty of
jirotccting all, and not a part; of maintaining
Inviolably tho public faith; of elevating the
public credit and resources of tho nation; of
expending tho public treasure with the same
care and economy that wo would our own;
of limiting ourselves within the pale of our
constitutional powers, nnd regulating our
measures by the great principles contained in
that sacred charter, nnd’ cherishing in our
hearts tho sentiment, that the Union of the
States cannot bo too highly valued, or too
wntchfirily cherished.
These arc some of tho great land marks,
which suggest themselves to my mind, as
proper to guide us in our legislative career.
By these means, Gentlemen, we shall not only
render ourselves worthy of tho high trust con
fided to us, but wo shall endear to our people
the principles of their constitution and free
institutions, and promote a sentiment of union
and action auspicious to the safety, glory, and
happiness of our beloved and commou coun
try!

There remains no doubt but tho present crop

From another letter Jated Aon. Ifl.—
“ Several of our principal planters have com
menced grinding tliefr sugar cano, and in
many instances Sa yield ia found to bo short
of their expoctationa. For example, wo have
hoard of a planter realizing only two hhda. of
sugar, out of nearly twouty acres cultivated:

the Spanish families who arrived with it,
reached the State of Missouri just in timo to

REMARKS.
COTTON—Since our last report Uplands have
been dull, and the aalcti of the week will ii t exceed
2000 bates. The quantity offering is large, and as per
emptory orders, in many instances, have been given to
sell on the wharf, lower rates have ncccssnrily
been aulimitlod to. Some fair lots have been sold at
8 6-8 a 8 3-4; and some very good lots of Southern Cot
ton at 0 n 91-8; els, which is a decline ofS-8 to 1-2 cl.
since ourlastrcfiort. But even at theso rates purchasers
are not anxious to avail themselves, and we may ob
serve that holders at tho same time, are less anxious to
H«ll. Strictly primo is nut plenty,8t would yet command 9
1-2 ets. Wo quote 81-2 a91-2 els, as in quality. In Sea
Islands some small sales, of common qunlitios, have
been mado at 22 a23 rents. This description is much
inquired for. Wo quote 22, and upwards for fine brands.
1UC B.—The demand for this article continues stea
dy, nnd considerable sales have been made during tho
week at from 2 1-4 to 2 3-4. Prime is much sought af
ter and would readily bring from 27-8 to 83. We quote
from 2 1-4 a $3.
FLOUR—In tliis article a reduction of 25 cents per
barrel his been submitted to since our last. Tho safes
during tho week have been at *86. The demand is
quitclimUed.
GROCERIES.—There hat been very little dono in
Groceries since our last. The sales mostly made are
fur the town trade at our quotations.
