JAN. ’id—The Senate, yesterday, post
poned until today the further considera
tion of Mr. Clay’s resolution on the sub- ;
jset of the Tariff, in order to go into the
consideration of executive business. Pre
vious to closing the doors, in addition to
aco isidcrabte jvortioti of morning bust- 1
ness that was transacted, Mr. Benton
submitted resolutions calling for important
information with regard to the Bank
of the United Sates. The Senate con
tinued iu secret sessions to a lute hour of J
the day.
In tire House of Representatives, a va-1
rich of bills were introduced from the!
respective committees, and read a first and
second time, and committed. Mr. Ells
worth, irom the committee on the Jud .ei
ary, reported a bill in addition to an act
for the relief of inadvertent debtors of the

JANUARY 27.—We are gratified in
being able to announce to our readers the
probability of having it in our power to
lay 1 >efore them the debates of the Senate '
in secret sesion, on the interesting ques
tion of Mr. Van Buren’s nomination.
Tin* Senate has passed a resolution re
moving the in junction from all the procee
ding's of the Senate, and also from the
debate. We learn that the following mem
bers participated in the delate, and in the
ord> r in which they are named:—Messrs.
Chambers, Smith, Clayton, Macy, Foot,
Webster, Clay, Brown, Ewing, Poindex
ter, Forsyth, Hayne, Frelinghuyse**,
Moore, and Manguni—several of whom
addressed the Senate more than
once.
The injunction of secrecy being re
moved we are enabled to state that the
Vote of the question of confirming the
tiomi: ation ofMr. Van Biiren, as Minis
ter to London, was as follows: Yeas 2d:
Nays 23; [ \hsent, Mr. Prentiss, and Mr.
Bibb—the former confirmed by indisposi

the negative and thus decided the question

The London morning chronicle of Nov.
"22, contains an O. P. Q. letter, dated Pa
ris Nov. 19th, of which the following is
an extract.
I am obliged to state that the Napoleon
party in France is most formidable. Lou
is Philippe and his minister are a vast
deal more afraid of the Duke of Ileicli
stadt than they are of the Duke Bordeaux.
Austria has refused to avow what her in
tentions are with regard to the son
of Napoleon. There are sixty-nine
Napokouists in the Chamber of Depu
ties.
Coincidence. —lt is a somewhat singu
lar coincidence that in the three freest na
tions of the age, France, England and
the United States, the upper or aristocra
tic branch of the government, is in op| osi
tion to the lower or popular branch which
is tlie immediate representative of the peo
ple. In France, the chamber of Peers is
in direct collision with the chamber of
Deputies and the people, on a most im
portant principle of the constitution—the
hereditary peerage; in England, the house
of Lords is equally at issue with the
House of Commons and the people, on
the great measure of Reform; and in the
United States, the senate or aristocratic
branch is atlirnied to be at issue with the
House of Representatives and the peo
ple, on the great leadirg question ot the
day the re-election of Andrew Jackson.

The rejection of Air. Van Huron's
nomination by the Senate, is likely to
produce quite u sensation through the
country. His rejection is generally con
sidered rather us the result of a party
intrigue, than as a judgement passed
upon his want of talents or fitness for
-the station. Indeed we think it proba
ble that this vote was intended to hme
a prospective effect; and is rather direc
ted against Mr. Van Huron, candidate
for the presidency, than against Air.
Van Buren, minister to Great Britain.
For ourselves, we have never been par
tial to Mr. Van Buren's character; there
is much about him that we don't like.
8ti!l wc cannot deny to him the credit
of very considerable talents,of great ac
tivity and perseverance of character.
And besides, his talents such ns they
are, nve altogether of the diplomatique
order; and he may therefore hav? been
able to attend to the interests of this
country at the court of Great Britain as
well as a better man. We think also,
bis political opponents in the .Ssnate,
more especially the Vice President, be
trayed a want of magnanimity, a want
of dignity of c haracter, in rejecting his
appointment, solely perhaps from per
sonal ill will Air. Van Buren possess
es too active a spirit, 100 much elastici
ty of character, to be kept down: and
this v ote in the senate, 'will rather assist
than otherwise, his future pimis, in pro
duejng u reaction in the public in.mi in
his favor.
We have received the January num
ber of the Lauv's Book, and observe r

for the. Democrat.
Alr. Editor, 1 nin very easily satisfi
ed with the municipal regulations of a
ny town, where destiny may cast my
lot, but must beg the permission to use
a portion of the columns of your paper
for the purpose of culling the atten
tion of tne honorable board of A filer
men, to some of the grievances which
many of our citizens in common with
myself sutler, and have sotfered, since
the existence of our flourishing town.
It is well known to ail that it is not
in the power of every man, having a
family to provide for, to secure his gar
den with expensive puiling, or to en
close it with a brick wall, the substitute
is an ordinary fence, with which the
greater number are protected; to make
them pig or shout proof, w ould keep
one hand constantly employed. The
I consequence is, after we have seeded
j our vegetable gardens, which cost us
| often from three to four dollars indepen
dent of the labor bestowed, we are visi
ted by a hoard of the swine tribe, break
ing through our garden fences, rooting
all before them and actually jumping
five rails to my certain knowledge! We
have an ordinance Air. Editor recently
enacted upon the subject of mad dogs—
really I think with much more propriety
they might have extended their Charily
to the mad and hungry hogs that prowl
! and ream nt large in the streets. There
| is a red crop eared Sow, that must be mad,
i or by some strange freak of nature she
has been endowed with both extraordi
nary sagacity and muscular agility, to
the great annoyance of myselffct, neigh
bors, the’ infested us during the last
Summer. Rhinoceros like, perfect proof a
gainst dogs powder and ball as my friend
the Colonel can testify. Bhe has feast
ed upon the dainties and delicacies of
more than fifty gardens, and believe me
sir. last night, after an absence of three
months, to the consternation of the
whole neighbourhood her svvineship re
appeared—l heard a grunt—good bye
green peas, lettuce cabbage, all gone "by
the board,” away she went, Jole and
Tow, at her heels Jo bounded the fence, sir
\ rails in tlie clear. This morning I bad to
fayny my respects a second time to Air.
| Terry for more seed; why doni you
i shoot her said he? I tell you sir she is
I bullet proof, she is worse than the "dog
| that worried the cat.” A plague on tlie
whole mischievous grunting race, 1
hate them with all the unleavened bit
terness of my soul, I have no love lor
them save only in the form of a plump ham
with a gallon of green peas.
Is there no way to relieve us of this
dilemma, I venture to assert we have no
commercial town in tlie union under
proper government that permits large
droves of hogs to go at large in the
streets, generating that most loathsome
of all insects the flea, under the public
and many of the private buildings of
! the town. If this state of things is per
mitted we cannot expect to rear any
thing worth eating in our gardens, or
enjoy any comfort during the Summer,
unless we provide ourselves with long
j linger nails, which to say the least of it,
jis horribly vulgar. It is a grieveance and
you must arknnwedge it, to he thus tor
incuted and it is Imped the honorable
| board will correct this very great ill
! convenience to ninny families.
If it is the wish of any citizen to raise
' hogs, it appears to me it cun lie easily
! don** on hi* ow n fin in n close stye,
without the destruction ofhis neighbor's
warden which is half his living and can-
not be dispensed with, without inccsr-j
ing more ex|vense in the purchase of
vegetables than u vast majority of the
population are able to encounter. But
all the laws which the corporation may 1
pass for our protection will be perfect-!
ly unavailing and in vain, unless the
J'own Marshal rigidly enforces them.
Another practice which is habitually
permitted w ithin the corporate limits, I
would most respectfully call their at
tention to. That of shooting pistols kc,
in every purt of the town, both day* end
night, and especially on the hunks of
the river. A1 any ladies witaia my ac
quaintance, would induce in tlie inno
cent and rational amusement of ang
ling, on the beautiful hanks of oar river
but for this dangerous interruption. It
lias become fashionable lor every boy
to have his Tom and Jerry pockets
crammed with pi-tols iireing and pop
ing away, apparently without any re
gard for the lives of those who may be
in carriages or on horseback, it is be
lieved the Commissioners can aught
to put a stop toil; or v why tax us so
heavily, if it is not to preserve ordor.

itself in so imposing a form to Congress
that they can hardly avoid it. The pro

tion having already passed tlie House

to foreign ports is 15,8211 hales; nearlv

to Charleston.— Sav. (ieorgi.au.

of Boston, have ordered a quarantine on
all vessels arriving at that port from Sun

from Smyrna.
Alt official communication has been
received by the Secretary of State of the
United States, from the American Con
sulate at London, stating that Dr. Bar
ky, who was sent to Sunderland by the
British government to ascertain the na
ture of the Cholera, has pronounced it
identical with the disease he saw in St.
Petersburg!!. It is also stated that n case
of tlie same disease occurred at. New
Castle (about nine miles from Sunderland)
that terminated fatally in nine hours and
a half.
Tlie death of officers which occurred
in the navy during the last year, from the
Ist of December, 1830, to the Ist Ultimo
was twenty-four; namely, one Post Cap
tain, two masters, Commandant, .devon
Lieutenants, three Surgeons, one assis
tant Surgeon, two Pursers, six Midship
men, one Boatswain and one Gunner.
The number of officers dismissed was
twenty; namely, one Hast. Commandant
one Lieutenant, fifteen Midshipmen, one
Boatswain, and two Lieutenants of Mar
ines. The number of resignations li as
twenty-nine, namely,one Lieutenant; one
Surgeon, <me Assistant Surgeon, one
Passed midshipman, twenty midshipmen
two Gunners, one Carpenter, and two
lieutenants of mariner. Thus bv deaths
dismissions, ami resignations, the number
of officers of the navy was reduced
last year seventy-throe, or about seven
per eeig.
The ronact which is to make its an- j
pea ranee in June next', is said to lie the ,
cause of considerable uneasiness among
the more ignorant, in consequence ofthe
expected nearness of its approach to the 1
earth. It is computed that it will be with
in 00,090 miles of the earth, and that it;
will rival the moon in size, with a fiery j
tail reaching half across the heavens j
Allowing for a little exaggeration in this i
account, it will no doubt apjiear to ashir- j
gerthan any of these extraordinary visiters j
that lias been seen within tlie memory of
any man living. We have heard that
some persons expect it to hunt up this
pretty wourld of ours; course they will
not think it worth while to plant a crop
this summer.
