The City Council, yesterday, repealed tile tai npnii saddle horses and dogs, tor the presenty ear. The time for receiving tax returns was also extended to the first of April next. Those who do not make r turns oftheir taxable property previous to that day, will subject themselves to the payment of double taxes.- i- Congrctt.—Wc find very little of Inter hat in the proceedings of either house. On the 25th ult. in the House, the bill to con tinue in force an act, entitled “ An act re- gulating the currency within the United Stnles, of the gold coin* of Great Britain, France, Portugal, and Spain, and the crowns of France, aud five franc pieces," passed the 25lh day of April, 1816, so far ns the same relates to the crowns of France and five franc pieces i aud the bill making the gold coins of Great Britain, France, Portugal, and Spain, receivable in pay- meets on account of public lands, were ordered to be engrossed for. a third read ing, the succeeding day. An unsuccess ful motion was made to rc-consider the vote of the preceding day, on the appro priation of fifty thousand dollars for the extinguishment of Indian titles to certain reserved sections of land in the state of Georgia—the vote upon this motion was •yes 52, nays 59. Baptist Irvine has addressed a long let ter from Curaeoa, to a member of Con' press, in defence of himself and the expe dition to Porto ltico, which he considers justified by the principles of our declara tion of independence, and tile examples of European nations whose subjects have Volunteered in the cause of the Greeks. The failure of the expedition he lays to his superior officer, Decoudray’s, want of address and energy. The Pennsylvania legislature have had under their consideration a bill giving au thority to tile inspectors of the prison, to erect, on certain conditions, the Trending Mill, which, it is probable will pa3s into *law. wl, i A letter from Buenos Ayres, of Deo 1st, Received by way of Havana, quotes Flour •tt 27 50 per barrel. At Kingston, Jamaica, Jan. 17th, Flour was 18 to 5520 per bbl, yellow Corn, gl 50 to g pe bushel. Baltimore, Feb. 25.—The schr. Kolia, Cap!. Vaughan, 14 days form Mutsnzis, ■ arrived here this morning. T lie U. was detained several days in port, in consequence uf a piratical icltuoner cruising off the harbor. An arm'd Am. brig, wi'lt two others in company, who had been at Matanzas some days before, were intercepted in sight of the harbor, when an en gagement ensued which lasted 15 nr £0 minutes—the pirate hauled off. Tne boat from Havana brought accounts that the U. S, frigate Con gress, i ftcr being supplied with cables and anchors by the Spark, wept into -‘.Havana an the 8th inst. Liberally.—The New York Insu rance Company yesterday made the vcy hinds me donation of one bun dr id and forty dollars to Mrs. Denny. VS e understand, also, that several other donations, by individuals, have been made. Among others. Gover nor Lewis called upon her, and re- cogn zed in her the widow of one ol his companions, in arms during the revolution. A"- V. Com. * dv. n my observation for these t-n 8r fifteen years past. I hold it to be of vast importance, tbst a young mBn should be able tq make some eclat rt his rnicnine, which it is vain to ex pect from one under twenty-five : the missing uf this is very apt tu dis courage, and, what is worse, may prevent the application of clients ever after. It has been observed be fore i was born, that if a man does, not obtain a character in his profes sion soon after his first appearance, he will hardly ever obtain one. The bulk of mankind will not louk long upon one object, even if it gives'them pleasure, much less will they seek for entertainment where ‘hey have, been twice or thrice disappointed. The late eminent Mr. Reed, who by some has been, perhaps just ly considered as the greatest common lawer this country ever saw, was, you know, many years a clergyman, and bail attained the age of forty before he began the practice, il not t'he study ofthelaw. Sir Peter King, formerly Lord Chancellor of England, kept a grocer’s shop till he was turned of thirty, when he fell into sn acquain tance with the immortal Locke, who, discovering genius in him, advised and assisted him in his books and edu cation } alter which he took to the study of the law, and finally attained the highest place m it 1 think I have been told that Lord Chief Jus tice Pemberton was a prisoner in the fleet before he ever dreamed of being a lawyer. ,, I mention these instaance not to to prove that it would be more eligi ble to Btay till thirty or forty, before a man begins the study of the profes sion by which he. is to live; but it is, i think, a fair inference, that those gentlemen availed themselves of the ripcnesB of liter juilgmcrts when they began the study, and made much more progress than a young roan ol twenty could make, with all the ge nius in the world.” F.xlractfrm Tudor's Life of Otis. It is wt h siucete pleasure 1 find Tny brother Samuel has well employ ed Ins time during his residence at iboine. 1 am sure you do not think the time long lhat lie is spending in fiis present course of studies, slhpe it is past ail doubt that they are not only ornamental anil useful, but in- slispensably necessary preparatories fur the figure l hope one day to see Slim make in his profession. I am •ure the year sod a half I spent in the same way alter leaving the aca demy, was as well spent as any part ol my file ; and i shall always lament (lint i did not take a year or two more for the general enquiries into the art* and sciences, before I sal down to the laborious study ot the laws of my country. My brother’s judgment cannot, at present, be sup posed to be ripe enough for so severe an exercise as the proper reading and well digesting of the common law.— Very sure i atn that if lie should de lay a year or two front the time of Lit il. giee, before lie begins with the law, he would make a belter progress in.,tie week, than he now could, with out a miracle, in six- Early anil abort cleik-bips, and a premature rushing intu practice, without a com potent knowledge of the theory ol ]a», have blasted the hopes of mas' 1)1 toe nutlcqM wl)9 l\9»f l»llep with- From London Papers. Sportinz in India- -Extract of a letter Irom Indio, received by a gen tleman of Reading, dated New Can tomncnts, June 29,1622 t" I mention ed to you in «ny last that I intended to have a month’s shooting We had not been out three days when an or der reached us t/i return | we had most famons sport the short time we were out, killing 1 tigers, 97 spotted deer, a Inge lot of hogs, and small game of all kinds. I enclose an ex tract from the Calcutta Journal of March 21, relating to the suer,ess of another parly of sportsmen:—A party of gentlemen, a few days back, took the field, in pursuit of tigers, buf faloes, Sninat ami hog deer, cltookoor, and black partridge, <§"c, besides hog- hunting, ou the confines of the dis tricts of Rajeshahye and Dinageporu, near the banks of the Mohamedy.— With the exception of the tiger only, several of the above game were daily killed in a sportsman like style, The party had not been long out before they received the joyful tiding of a rhinoceros Irom the terrified inhabi tants of several villages, whose appre (tensionshad been excited in an unu sual degree by the fierceness of the animal, evinced by his killing four or five ponies, and committing other acts of depredation. It being deter mined to pursue him, every exertion which keen sportsmen could practice was soon employed to discover him after many fruitless attempts,the exer tions of the party were rewarded, and their labours recompensed, by the sight of this immense animal or. the 13th instant. His bold aud determined aspect, and stately figure, as he re treated slowly before the elephants, appearing to disdain that rapid flight which could indicate fear, and char ging with fierceness when closely pressed combined'to afford excellent Bport. Intimation of his discovery being immediately given, every mem- ber of the party joined in the pursuit and quickly clustng round, his" fate was suon scaled. The dimensions of this male rhinoceros were as follows; length from the nose to the extremity of the tail, 15 feet 10 inches, ftail measuring only 15 inches;) circum ference of the body, 15 feet 8 inches weight of the heart, 2Glb. 30 teeth, two tusks ; length of the horn on his nose 20 inches ; presumed weight of the head, four maunds, or 3 cwt. and 36 lb. This animal is supposed to have strayed from the Morung Hills. It is proposed to send his head to England.” Stone Barometer,—There is a stone in the northern part of Finland, which setves the inhabitants instead of a barometer. This ttooc, which they call Ilmakuir, turns black, or blackish grey, when it is going to rain, but on the approach of fine weather it covered with white sputs. Probably it is fossil mixed with clay, and con -isting of rock salt, ammoniac, or salt petre, which, according to the greater or less degree of the pressure of the atmosphere, attracts it or otherwise In the latter case the salt appears, wbirt forw white sj ou. Tight Lacing.—It hit* tong foet*n K nutter of regret with person* of good *etne and good taste that m-my of the fenules of this country injure their health and real beauty ot form by the absurd practice of wearing tight stays. The practice sef*ras now to have spread to the men, if indeed such blockheads merit that appella tion, It is a fact that an exquisite fainted away on Friday In Boml-street and whs assisted into a shop, where lie was some < ime before he recovered* Medical aid was sent for, when it was ascertained that his stays were too tight, coM*nnrfriTr.D. General Missionary Society <lf the Proton iant Episcopal Church. Mr thcon, charged with collecting funds in aid of this highly commendable object, is now in this city. The society under which he acts, was organized by the Ins’ General Convention of the Episcopal Church. Its first object is, to establish in stitutions for the dissemination of our ho ly religion, in the destitute places and new settlements, in the interior of the conn try * and, should adequate support be af forded. it will be extended to foreign countries, particularly to Africa, where so extensive field is about to be opened for he dissemination of the religion of Jesus. Mr Uacun has alreudy visited the Eastern suites, and Marylund, in furtherance of the object in view. He has also published an abstract of a Join nal kept by him, during his voyage and stay in Africa, copies of which he has now with him, for sale. The proceeds arising from the sales are appro priated to the object for which he is soli citing subscriptio. s; ami the benevolom may, by purcln sing this pamphlet, aid in the object of the Society. This is to certify, That Mr. Ephraim lla con has been appointed an ag‘ m to collect funds for" the, Domestic and Foreign Mis sionary Society of the Protestant Episco pal Church j” and as such he is affection- utely commended to the kin* I offices, and efficient aid. of all who wish well to our Zion. ■Philadelphia, Dec. 20,1822, WM WHITE, President.

And it has been urged that So year of age should be the mioimuni for a President, The writer, 1 much fear, i - tended no good to Mr, Clay, when he pub lished that table, lint to the scrupulous on that subject, who would otherwise sup port Mr Cluy, I would intimate, that about the time when ho will he culled on to de liver his inaugural address, he will have attained the'necessary requisite, as he is now over 48, and daily growing older. As no suge counsellor of the sovereign people, has yet advised to bring the.can- dittoes to the standard or the teaks, to ascertain height and weight, and thereby 'determine their relative merits. 1 shall not urge it myself, but conclude bv hint* iug that my favorite, Mr. Clay, is over ti.r 'feet in height, and not too bulky to be bright. > K. DIED, In Charleston, which he visited for his. health, Judge Van Nash, of the state of New-York MAKINE. PORT OF SJ} IW.VJin. ^ By the following it will appear that our friend “ K” Ins again tuken up the cud gels in favor of Mr. Clay. It is but fair, however, to quote the words of the Demo cratic Press here commented on. They are, “ The Tetiring of Mr. Calhoun from the contest, the ascertainment of the fact that Mr. Clay’s claims arc not supported by any but the western states, together with the unsettled and lumentable state of their circulating medium, tend much to concentrate public opinion upon Mr. Craw ford and Mr. Adams/' Now what this re mark, or the comments of “K,” huve to do with the fitness ol either Mr. Clay or Mr. Crawford for the presidency, we cannot perceive. Wc deprecate sec'ioniil divi- sions on a question like this the candi date supported by the Democratic party throughout the union, must succeed—for it is composed of two thirds of the people —and we know of no one by whom that choice would be better deserved than William II. Crawford, ron the oF.onoiAtr, The editor of the Democratic Press, speaking of the prospects of several can didates for the Presidency, appears to be lieve that Mr. Crawford, on tne whole, has decidedly the best chance. 1st. Mr. A* damn being the federal candidate, and of doubtful principles, the republican party will in preference choose either of h<s re publican antagonists 2d. Mr. Clay, who is an undoubted republican from hi* early youth to the present day, would have had some chance, but for ihe depreciation °A western paper and he being destitute of good funds, will have no other sup port than the west—so his books mav be closed. Therefore, Mr. Rruwford, also a “ republican candidate, 0 has un doubtedly the advantage of the northern and western candidates, and must -be our next President . If so it must he—as I like Mr. Crawford vastly, when contrasted with our scribbling Secretary of State, my grief will not be mortal. But I would ask of the editor aforesaid, what influence money is to have in deciding the election for Pro sident in this free country f How are a candidate’s prospects to be affected by possessing current money ? I am the more anxious to have satisfac tory answers to these questions, as t am inclined to think that the friends of Mr. Clay may derive much assistance from them, in securing the presidential cltuir to their candidate. It is pretty well known that western paper is daily improving,- and if any person or persons would b<* willing to support Mr, Clay's claims, il Kentucky pvper was good, who now hesitate, I would earnestly beg them to wait a few months before they commit themselves against him i for that paper will soon be ut pur, and his chance worth a premium.
