Dr. Convvell, Bishop of Phil adelphia, or in his absence to the Rev, Mr. Haro.(l, -o#l7f»- A curious case has lately occurred in the Legislature ot the S ate of New-Yo; k. B> an iniidvertance of the Speaker, a bdl which had passed but two readings, and w hich was! intended to have been seriously opposed on! its Uiirtl reading, received the signature ol the Speaker ol toe House, as though it had! finally’passed dial body, was returned mi die Senate, sanctioned by the signature ofl the Lieutenant Govi rnor, and hud also re ceived she signature < I the Gov rnor, before ■the mistake was discovered. We can easilv cmceive how th■ Speaker could have com mitted the oversight ; but what was die !Clerk about? Tout both Speaker and clerk j should have missed a figure in the case, was (somewhat extraordinary. Not more ao.j .however, it appears to u-, than the decision) which seems to have been made upon the! case, vi. that the bill--Had become aim. without having gone through the constitu ! tional forms. The Governor, Lieutenant! G ivernor, and Speaker of the House of As-| jsemblv.are, ihus, in effect, decided to have iall the Legislative ami Executive power id |the Slate in their hands. The only way in which a member could get at the bill f.r the purpose of opposing it, it appears, was, bv Mitrooui ihga bill torepeal the other bill. It {would have saved trouble,if, on the princi ple id mis decision, he could have persua ded the Presiding Officers of the two Houses with t ie Governor, to sign a rescript annul ling it. A paragraph has been circulated in the newspape.s relative to the Manner in which General Lafayette has invested the sum re cently voted to him by Congress. We are not sui e that it was right to mention this sub ject at all, but as there is a w ide spread and natural anxiety that the gratitude of the na tion should be as effectual as possible, we state with pleasure what we understand to lie the sac sin the case. The beloved guest wished the the national gift to be invested iin tiie national funds, so as to connect his 1 fortunes, as they have been heretofore con 'ji ected, with the whole Union, and therefore ’.asked the opinion of the President of the Bank of the United States as to the best ! !ni.ole of accomplishing that object. The j latter gentleman, aware of the loss which 'i would attend the purchase of Stock at its advanced price, consulted the Board of Di - ; j red ms, who, immediately and unanim ous | v agreed to offer to the general, at par, die amount which he should desire of the re cent four and a half per cent, loan, and also, • to remit his dividends to France, every, ' ipiartcr, w. hunt any charge for agency.—• 1 i ie pro ...sal has been accepted by him, and; i’he result is, th.-.t lie is able to invest his] Tuiulsi.il much better terms .than he could! iobuiin by any other purchase of national stocks at th •ir present rates.

After many ineffectual attempts, he states, to procure those documents, du- ( j ring the periods when General Armstrong* and afterwards Doctor Enstis were at head of the Department of War, he was in\Jf din ed to make one further application in fall of 1823, to the present Secretary, Calhoun, who, with promptness, he addsjH transmitted them to him—-and it is oil these f documents, that his appeal is now predica ted. That the public, may be better enabled to examine these documents continuously, 1 General Hull has compiled them in a phlet, under ilij tide of “Gen.

The next glaring irregu larity noticed on the trial, was the. admission v . us the evidence of witnesses in the presenceM if each other—-the subaltern after listeningSl j lo the testimony of his commander or supe-t rior officer, being called on for Ins narration is to facts. An appeal to the commoirsense... | of the most inexperienced, is the only comJfl inent necessary on these points. * y As it is believed the public are generally * ignorant of the claims of Gen.
