To the .Novelist’s Magazine-
Philadelphia, Nov. 27, 1833.
iVHE anxiety to bring into activity the taleat
. of the country, induced the Publishers of
the NOVELIST’S MAGAZINE tooffera Pre
mium of FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS far
the best Novel, on a National subject, for that
Publication. But by the Report of the Com
mittee, which is subjoin.id, tnc .Manuscripts sub
mitted to their perusal, are not of that character
which would warrant the award of that Premi
um. The time is therefore extended, as is also
the ameunt, which, it is to be hoped, will induce
native talent to exertion :
The undersigned, a Committee sclented for
•hat purpose, have examined a number of Manu
"cript Novels, offered ascompetitors for a Pre
mium, proposed to be given hy the Publishers of
the Novelist’s Magazine, “ to the Author of the
best Novel, on a National subject.”
While the undersigned are of opinion that
several of the Novels submitted to their inspec
tion, possess considerable merit, they do not
think any one of them is altogegther of such a
description as would warrant them iu awarding
the Premium.

TII ERE is no country which, for the time es
Uncivilized and political existence, offers so
wide and untroden a field for the enterprize of
the Novelist as this —and it is, not alone the in
terest, but the duty of those who possess mind
for the task, to occupy the field of competition,
and thus probably establish hie own reputation,
and promote that of his country. Independent
of the national inducement, the attention of the
literary aspirant is directed to tho following: —
In order to assist in advancing American Lit
erature, and give the readers of tlie N’oveliat’a
Magazine a share in the advantage of meritori
ous talent, which the country possesses, the Pub
lishers of that work, satisfied that the best way
to promote talent is to reward it, offer a Premi
um of
@VSO TO THE AUTHOR
Os Ike best •Vovch
Upon a National subject—to he presented on
or before the first of April, 1834.
This premium w ill he awarded hy a chosen
Committee; and the successful Work will be
printed in handsome hook-form, corresponding
with the best London Editions of popular Nov
els, in order that the manner es its publication
may correspond with the merit of the Auth.r.
The competitor for the Premium will understand
that, in addition to the SEVEN HUNDRED
and FIFTY DOLLARS, he will be entitled t.
: Fitly Dollars for every thousand copies of the work
I which may be sold, during the continuation ®f the
copy-wright, or FIVE DOLLARS for every
hundred; which, when competent talent isexer
| cjsed on the work, i* not unlikely to produce »
' lair remuneration.
'The manuscript for competition must be deliv
ered by the first of April, under an envelope, ad
dressed to C. ALEXANDER & CO. and ac
companied by a sealed letter communicating tho
author’s name, which shall remain unopened, ex
cept in the case of the successful competitor.—
To the others the manuscrips and signatures will
be returned, by calling according to the address.
The new and very popular Novel, entitled “V 11.-
lage Belles,” is now in a course of publication
for the NOVELIST’S MAG AZIN K;and will be
issued in the next Number of that Work. Bis a
production of more than ordinary excellence, and
will be read with much interest and anxiety. It
mav also be proper to say that the Subscribers to
the NOVELIST’S MAGAZINE will, m the
course of the Work, obtain a uniform edition of
the Writings of Mr. Jamks. the acknowledged
inheritor ol the genius of Sir Walter ScOTt
and also the works of the leadtßg literary charac
ters of the day, among whom are Bolwer, Ha
mm, Ac. &c.
cry Publishers of Newspapers, oxehaning
with the NOVELIST’S MAGAZINE, are re
quested to give the above a few insertions, and in
future to address their papers to the A I lIhNIAN
and LITERARY GAZETTE, by which prompt
ness of delivery issecured, as well a* extenna

TWENTY-THIRD CONGRESS,
IN SENATE.
Monday, Dec. 0.
Appointment ol Committee*.
The Chair took this occasion to remark
that he should have announced the Stan
ding Committees this morning, according
to the usual practice, had it not been that
a resolution was offered by a Senator
from Maine on Thursday, which proposed
to take away from the presiding officer
the power of appointing any committees
whatsoever. As this proposition had
placed him in a somewhat delicate posi
tion, he thought that he should best dis
charge his duty by waiting the result of
this motion, especially as the inconve
nience to the Senate of waiting a few
days, would be very trifling.
Mr. Clay then expressed a wish that
unless the Senate intended to proceed to \
the election of a Chaplain to-day, the re
solution to which the Chair had referred
should be taken up.
The Chair replied, that the election of
a Chaplain was not among the orders for
to-day.
On motion of Mr. Chambers, it was
then agreed to go into the election of a
Chaplain to-morrow.
The Bank.
Tbs following resolution, offered on
Thursday by Air. Benton, was then ta
ken up for consideration :
Itesolved. That the Secretary of the
Treasury be directed to report to the
Senate—
1. A statemeatof the amount of public
moneys iu the Bank of the United States
at the end of each month for each year
from the establishment of the Bank to the
present time ;
2 The average amount of the same for
each year;
3. The average of the same for the
whole time.
Mr. Clay then expressed a hope that
the resolution would be suffered to lie on
the table until another day. He had
wished, himself, to make a call on the Sec
retary of the Treasury for information, as
to the actual condition, not only of the U
nited States Bank, but of all the other
Banks in which the public money has
been deposited. He had no objection to
urge against the resolution which had
been offered ; but, as he wished to obtain
at a single view the condition of the
whole of the public Treasury, he would
move that the resolution, for the present
lie on the table.
The motion was agreed to.
Collection BUI.
Mr. Calhoun, pursuaut to notice, ntov
ved for leave to introduce a bill to tepeal
an act further to provide for the collection

which was then agreed to.

tion was then ordered to l>e printed, to

sion of 1825—6.

I from the citizens of Cincinnati, praying
that Congress would purchase the private
| interests iu the stock of the Louisville and
j Portland Canal.
This subject, Mr. W. said, had been ac
ted ou lust session, and a favourable re
port had been made by a Committee. Ho
would only move for the present to lay
the msmorial on the table and print it;
and at some future duy, he would, move
further disposition of the memorial,
j The memorial was then laid on the tu-
I hie, and ordered to be printed.

Air. Clay, of Alabama, moved that the
House now go into Committee of the
Whole on the slate of the Union, with a
view to taking upthc President’s Alessages.

the subject of the removal of the IJepo
sites, which is now on the Clerk’s tabic,
be referred to a Committee of the Whole
House on the state ol the Union.
Mr. Folk enquire*! rS AIoLf. Wltli
what view lie wished that document re
ferred as proposed ? Whether it was
that it should be considered at the same
time when so much of the .Message as re
ferred to the same subject should be taken
up ?
Air. AlcDuffie made a reply which did
not distinctly reach the ear of the Repor
ter, anti which was understood to be affir
mative.

Resolved, Thnt this House has received

Singleton, a Representative elect from the

The resolutions were passed uunni
mously.
Air. P. then said that as he understood
it to be customary, in cases of this kind,

The motion was agreed to :
And the House thereupon adjourned.

The admirable arrangements for the
22d were carried out with j»crfect order, i
and with the best and most imposing et- J
feet. The morning broke bright cloud-]
less, and serenne, and the smiling Hea-j
vens minglod theirs with the hallowing
influences of gratitude and patriotism.
We rejoice in the conviction that an im-,
pressionhas been made upon the public]
mind which will not lie erased, and to
which memory will never revert but to
relume a glow of enthusiasm, and call up
a thronging rush of proud nrd cnobling
associations. We know that we are not
sanguine in ‘.lie anticipation, that the effect
produced upon the present, and upon the
I rising generation, must lie followed hy the
! most beneficial and imporant results in
j cherishing, disseminating and |>erpotuat
! ing an elevated public sentiment. I’aro
| liua may well chronicle that amongst her
! brightest and proudest days, which
.[assembled the beauty,tho chivalry, the
I AfILUftER M/
genius and the rirtue of the land, arouiid
the grave of lief 1’ nitus, as around an al
tar. Nor need she he less proud that die
generous homage was shared with the
glorious dead, l>y her illustrious living
sons. To us there was moral sublimity
when we saw Haync and Calhoun wor
shipping virtue and liberty as they stood
together at the head of Turnbull's grave.
We vouch for it that very few bestowed
a thought at the moment upon the mate
rial monument that was to ascend ftotn
that spot —whilo hundreds of hearts thril

THIS CORNER STOWE Os A MONUMENT,*
Erected by the State Rights Party
or SOUTH CAROLINA,
To the Memory of
ROBERT J. TURNBULL,
Was laid by
ROBERT Y. HAYNE,
Governor of the State,
On the 22d duy of November*
Anno Domini, 1§33.
Governor Hayne then proceeded, with
Lite assistance of the worthyl architect*
Mr. Tlios. Walker, to deposit the case*
and lay the Corner Stone—after whsefr
ceremony, ho spoke as follows :
“ I have now, fellow-citizens, in com
pliance with your request, laid the Cor
ner Stone of this Monumont, consecrated
to genius, virtue and patriotism. Let it
rise from the grave of our departed friend'
in its spotless purity and fine proportions*
an appropriate emblem of the purity of
his life, the noble simplicity and integrity
of his character. It will remain, we trust,
for ages yet to come, a proud memorial
of his worth, and our gratitude. The
rising generation may make their pilgrim
age to this spot, sacred to patriotism, and
here learn their duty to their country.—
The marble may indeed fade, und the time
inn y come, when this proud monumeat
will lie crumbled into dust. But the pro
ductions of genius are as eternal ns the
mind that conceives them. Our lament
ed TURNBULL has erected for himself
a monument more durable than marble ire
the lofty conceptions of his mighty- mind - *
and the g-merous sentiments of a noble
heart, given to us in those immortal
works which can never die. In these
wc shall still hear him speaking to us from
die tomb, in those soul stirring accent**
urging us onward in the path of duty, and
instructing us, that when Limmrty i» as
sailed, die Patriot’s post is tiiat of “ the
greatest difficulty, danger and honor."
The procession then formed again, and
moved into the Church, where a thronged
galaxy of our fair countrywomen were*
assembled to receive diem. After reli
gious exercises by the Kcv. Dr. Gadsden*
and music by the choir, die Eulogium was
pronounced by Gen. Hamilton.
Wc would widi pleasure review the
topics of this eminently felicitous effort—
butwc know that it will* shortly Be given
to the public in a more permanent form—
| and we will not weaken by attempting to*
] forestall its effect. It is the highest praise
! to say that it was worthy of its subject
