Wc learn from the Darien Telegraph that a £ man by the name of William McDride Lewis, v: <*as burned to death not fur from that city. It y appears that he had been attending Court as a Bailiff, and camped out on bis return homo, with I some other friends, all of whom were intoxicated I and while lying in that state near a fire the clothes | of the unfortunate Lewis caught, and ho was so ft badly burnt that ho expired a short time after wards. | '"xiAitLTS TI.T IIK move.—No less than 500, Lv Mr < .Burgs if- >g i e ft New Orleans on the ninsaet businc r . <vt 1/ . Kock, Ark. The Augusta Mirror. The first number of a new literary paper, pub lished by Messrs Thompson & McCalferly in this place, was issued on Saturday evening. It resembles tbc New Yoik Mirror in appearance, and contains a number of excellent original com munications, and rejected articles in prose, ami poetry. It has also a handsome piece of music, the words by T. II Bayly, Esq. This puplicalion in every way so creditable to our city, wc do hope will not be permitted to share Ike fate of many littcrary publications which have gone Lcforc it, in the South, Wc have the best assurances iliat its contributors will be among tbc best wriiers in .the Slate, and the handsome appearance of the first number is evidence of the tneriiorious manner in which it will bo executed. We bespeak for it a hand some patronage! At an adjourned meeting of the citizens of Au. gusta, held at the City Hall, on Saturday,the Dili of May, 1838—in pursuance of the cull of the chairman. Mr. Win. T. Gould, from tho Committee of thirteen, presented the following report and ac companying resolutions, which were taken up and read-and upon motion were adopted by the meeting—to wit: The committee, appointed to lake into consid eration the objects ot this meeting, beg leave to Report, That they have deliberately considered both (be subjects referred lo them. In regard to the escapes from justice, two cases .only have been brought lo their notice.—As to like first of these—that of the dea li of Arthur Brown, —your committee consider it by no means creditable to ibis community, that a stranger, far from his fr-ends and homo, should have been killed in our vicinity, and the act been followed by no regular judicial investigation : for though an inquest was held upon the body, their verdict .simply slated that ho died, from a shut in the I- left breast —whic h amounts to absolutely nothing. S' Being advised, however, that further proceedings iS.vti lbu had in this mailer, yout committee const. ISLler it unnecessary, as well as unjust to those who flpmay bo implicated in the investigation, and who vc-are to bo presumed innocent, till proved guilty, *fk for this meeting lo act at all upon the subject. Sj»-. But the c.-cape of Charles Wooster requires more pointed animadversion. This man had been committed lo prison, on a charge of murder. The Judge of the Superior Court admitted him to bail. Tho prisoner was placed in custody of Thomas Tanll, a consiuble; who allowed him lo go at large, and out ol his own sight; and finally gave him permission lo go alone, to an adjoining coun- ( tv, for his security.—-Wooster went, returned on The Rail Road, read to Tanll a Idler, putponing to be a promise, from a responsible gentleman to stand as his bail; and Mr. T anll, considering this as settling the matter, looked alierhim no more. Your committee believe, that il tbu officers of the law are thus allowed to exercise, with impu nity, a discretion, which docs away even with theyorm* of justice, our criminal jurisprudence becomes a con emptiblo farce. They therefore submit the following resolu tions : Resolved, That the Attorney General be re quested to cause a prosecution to be instituted, at (he next term of the Superior Court of this county, against Thomas Tantt, lor neglect ofdu tv, in suffering th-- escape of Charles Wooster, ' And, to aid in bringing the said Charles Woos ter to justice, fe Resolved, That it be recommended lo the Ci ty Council to offer a reward for his apprehension, in addition to that offered by the Governor. Upon tho other subject referred to them,—the suppression of gambling—your committee believe (bat a due administration of existing laws will be found effectual. They deem it needless to dwell on the ruinous effects of a vice, which has blight ed the hopes of so many parents, destroyed the prospects of so many promising youth, and brought so many families to misery and dis grace. The actual extent of the evil, among us, msy not, perhaps, be known Your committee have credible information, that at least ten regular gambling establishments are constantly kepi up, in this city and its immediate vicinity: and that j a * Ifcsst thirty individuals reside among us, whoso i sole support is derived from the gaming table, r I his number docs not include the servants, ban* 1 gers on,and dependants) of those persons, who must amount to many more. In a place of tho size of Augusta, the exist* enco of such a mass of vice is perfectly appalling Your Committee believe that it calls for reme dies the most active, and measures the most ti gorous. And they cannot hut notice, with re gret and censure, the indirect encouragement, which this evil receives, from men of standing ami inlluonce in the community. The proses. Monal Gambler may well complain of the une. i qual administration of justice, when brought to the bar for dealing at laro ; while others, who win and lose, money, at mere genteel games, in their own houses, are not even prosecuted.— While the surest mode of ciaificating this vice is to make its indulgence a degradation ; the I surest way to perpetuate it, is to make it lash* I ionablc. Where men of fortune and standing j lead, others will follow. A son will not easily : he persuaded to aeoid what h s father practices ; j and many a patent owes, to the imprudence of his own-example, tha ruin of his children. Your committee would hope, that the conside- I rations, suggested to their minds, hy the mere j dilution to this subject, may induce those, who indwlge in private gaming, to m V.u the sacrifice, which they owe to the morals of tho community. Then can they, with perfect propriety, unite in those measures, which have become indispensa- j tile, to deliver our city tnnn a corrupting pest— a withering curse. While your committee believe, as before sta* led, that the due adminisliaiiun of existing laws is all that is required to cure existing evil.-; it is evident that, to secure such an administra tion, there must be an union of those who wish our moral atmospheie purified : and nothing is more desirable, than a public expression of their views, and wishes, and determinations. Bcliev. ing that the principal object of this meeting is to obtain such an expression, your commiUeu sub mit tlie following resolutions. 1. Resolved, That this meeting will sustain by its hearty co-operation and approval, all offi cers of the law. whose duty it is, and who make it their business, to suppress tho view of gaining, in ibis city and county. 2. Resolved, That our Grand Juries bo, and they hereby are, earnestly requested to m,.ke dili gent and constant investigation into tho facts connected with this subject: and to prosecute, without disliction, all persons implicated. 3. Resolved, That his honor, the Judge of the Superior Court, and thu Attorney General, be, ■ rid they hereby are, respectfully ami earnestly requested, to lend their official aid to the oljccts of this meeting, hy enforcing, to the utmost, the penalties of the law against this class of offend er*. 4. Resolved, That these proceedings be pub lished, and that the Chairman of this meeting furnish a copy thereof to his honorJudgc Schley, with a request that he will lay it before the Grand Jury. 5. Resolved, That tho Town Council and citizens of Hamburgh he, and they hereby are, respectfully requested to co-operate with this meeting, in suppressing tho vice of gaming : and that the Chairman communicate to Henry Shultz, Esq Inti ndant of Hamburgh, so much of the proceedings of this meeting, as relates to this subject. Mr. James Harper offered the following resolu tion, which being seconded, was adopted, to wit: Resolved, That this (neoting earnestly recom. mend to every individual, and more especially to every parent and every head of a family, to dis countenance the practice of playing it such games of chance as are usually resorty gamesters; as m e of the surest mean-; :ng the formation of habits of g buyout!; of onr community. Mr Janies Harper a)s. *.a. ... .ok:.ring re- . solution, which, being seconded, was adopted, to wit: Itetolved, Tnat it be earnestly recommended to those who control or patronize the amusement of horse racing, to exert their influence to prevent the race course,from being, in future, ns it has been too often, in times past, the favorite resort of gamblers and their deluded victims. Dr I’aul F Eve offered the following resolu tion, which, being seconded, was adopted, to -a: Resolved, That in order to entry into effect the objects of this meeting, wo respectfully sug gest to the City Council, that it is now expedi ent to establish a Police Office in Augusta, and so to reform the municipal government of the city, as to place tho mayor effectively at thu head of the Police, vested with powers adequate to tho duties and responsibilities to be imposed upon him. On motion, Resolved, That the three result), lions last adopted bo published with the other proceedings of the meeting. On motion the meeting then adjourned. SAMUEL HALE, Chairman. Anthiew J. Milled, Secretary. [raiiH ouu eouKKsro.MiENT.j WASHINGTON, May Ist, 1838. The Speaker laid before the House of Kepro • 1 scuta ives to day a communication from the Se- ] cretary of State enclosing (be credentials of John ' P. Kennedy, the now member elect from Haiti- | more. A law of Maryland requires that the Go- 1 vernor shall transmit the credentials of thcßuprc- j sentalives in-Congress to the State Department: They were ordered to be placed on the files of j tho House in the customary manner. Mr. CAMBUELING presented a statement j ftom the Secreiary of the Treasury showing the condition of the Treasury. It is in a worse state Ilian last week by six hundred thousand dollars. The unfinished business ot yesterday was then taken up—the report of the Duel Committee, j Mr. ADAMS bad moved, it will he remembered, j that the papet purporting to be the Jlcjiort of | the majority, and ail the otlnr papers, and the motion to print he recommitted, with instruc- i lions to strikeout all the argumentative pan and the resolutions, and report only the facts anil tho evi dence; and also that the Committee he discharged from tho further consideration of the petitions i referred to it, and from any inquiry into an alle ged breach of privilege. The question pending 1 whtn tho House adjourned, whs on a motion of Mr* Dr.can to strike out the words “ purpor ting to ij tbe,” which he considered as redacting on thy'iSkmmitteo. Mr. AD.‘»MS (who had moved the instructions) after some explanations justifying the use of those i words io withdraw them and modified j his modon accmJSjigly. | I Mr. KEED coin(j a incd of misrepresentation in ! tho papers as though ho had opposed the inquiry t at the outset, though he had voted sot it, ami da- i precating a similar misrvprescntaiion of his vole in the present case as evincing a desire to sup- i press the testimony which he disclaimed, and on i the contrary avowed his desito tha: it should all appear, but at the proper time Mr. THOMAS expressed his hops that (he House would clearly indicate its wish as to what ! 1 the Committee should do before it sent the re-* j i port back, anj is » 'co- of the opinion of (be * I House on this head, moved to strike out tiio lattoi , part of the instructions which propono to dis t charge the Committee from the question of a 5 breach of privilege &c. ‘ ELMORE expressed groat satisfaction at . this motion as tending to relievo bis mind from > embarrassment. Mr. PETRIKEN demanded the yeas and nays on the motion and they were ordered. Mr. ADAMS opposed the motion as tending rather to perplex the Committee than to relieve it from embarrassment. I he question was then token on motion of Mr. , 1 HO.M AS to strike out the latter part of the in- I B,r uclions and decided by yens and nays as fob lows yeas 9ti, nays fiS. So the I louse refused in eliect to dischaige the committee front further proceedings on the question of privilege. I Mr. RARIDEN now moved an amendment by | way of substitute for Mr. ADAMS’ proposi ion j ot amendment that the committee re-arrange their Journal so as to show in a connected series the questions | u', the answers given, and what ques. lions were rejected. On this motion Mr. TOLL j CL V demanded the yeas and nays, ; .Mr, RARIDEN consented to withdraw this | amendment for the present, in order to offer it at , it subsequent stage after the question of rrcom* I mit neni should have been settled. Mr. MEhEEIi suggested to Mr. Rariden to I b met id Itiv motion when made by adding to the | .instructions that the Committee report a b'tfl to I present duelling in the District ol Columbia. Mr. ELMORE stated that the Semite bill on j that subject had been considered in the Commit- I tec and amendments proposed to it; and was rea dy to be reported. Mr. 1 OLCL V said be bad the bill on his table for the purpose of reporting it when in order. Mr, ADAMS commented with severity on the irregularity ot the Committee’s proceedings in not noticing ibis hill on their journal, which was the principal thing prayed for in the greater port of the memorial referred to them. Mr A then ac cepted Mr. Rariden’s motion instructing the Com mittee to re arrange their j urnal &e. with the addition proposed by Mr. Mercer to instruct the Committee to report a bill against duelling as a‘ modification of his own motion. The question now therefore was on adopting this instruction. Air J OUC LV defended the Committee.— 1 heir journal applied only to the investigation of the causes and circumstances of the duel. This bill was a separate matter, and there was no propriety in mentioning it upon their journal Mr ELMORE explained what the Committee had done in regard to die Senate fill. Mr LEGARE expressed his tegiel that Mr Adams should have accepted the sngge.s ion us Mr Mercer, it only went to complicate thequen tion, anil to propose a measure which must be practically uwflfuMnl m •u]Y]ii«anns Uvt (.vil b aimed at. Mr THOMAS opposed the instruction* a* modified. •* Mr DELL then addressed lire House, and was desirous of entering on the general subject of the regularity of lha proceedings of the Committee anil the power ot the House on the premises, but alter many explanations touching the question of order, die Chair persisted in the opinion that it was not in order in debate on the motion tor instruction to go into those questions, and Mr H reserved bis remarks for a fuluto stage of debate. Mr CHAMBERS spoke at length in support of the instruction, and in the course of hi» rc„ marks glanced with no little severity at tho upin ner in which the evidence had been taken in the Committee, ihe House, however, being nearly empty (owing us was understood to the horse races on the neighboring course) he moved an adjournment. He withdrew the motion, how* over, at the request of Mr Sherrod Williams who moved a reconsideration of tint vole by which the i House had rejected the latter branch of Mr Adams’ instructions, discharging 'he Committee from the consideration of the question of breach of privilege, and from the remarks on the sub ject of the duel. Mr BOON suggesting that there was no quo rum present. Alter some confusion the Chair counted the House and reported that 105 mem bers only were within the bar. There being, therefore, no quorum. Mr Adams moved a call of the House. He observed that ns the religious servicea of t lie day were probably nearly over, the House might expect those who attending upon them soon to return to the public business. Mr, CHAMBERS moved an adjournment, which was carried, M. WASHINGTON. May 2, 18.18. In the Senate to day, a bill for granting a right of way for roads and canals through the , public land, after a warm opposition from Mr. LYON, and a wairn delcneo, Messrs 'Tipton, , Clay, and King of Ala. atid Mr Robinson of 111. wab ordered to be engrossed. ’• l The bill belore the Senate on Monday for the | protection and secu.ityof llie Indians and emi l grants west of tho Mississippi was also linally passed. 39 to G. , Mr CLAY then asked the Senate to take [up, his resolution touching the Government, the Banks, and the resumption of Specie payments. Mr WRIGHT moved its reference to the Committee on Finance. Mr CLAY wished for some reason for this i moli n. Mr WRIGHT would answer no further than . to say that he thought it unnecessary. Mr OLAY pressed the, consideration of the j resolution rpon tho attention of the Senate as a wise measure of government policy. • Mr CALHOUN spoke at, some length in fa- , vor of the sub-treasury bill, and against a Na linnal Dank. Ho wished these questions all to be brought again before the Senate. Mr BENTON spoke with great vehemence against the resolution. Mr NILE'S also opposed if. ' Mr KING of Ala. was in favor of reference. ' Mr TIPTON opposed, and had no notion of refering a matter to a Committee which was no- t furiously..hostile to the measure. Mi PRESTON spoke mainly in defence of j the resolution. , Mr DAVIS replied to Mr Calhoun, and an- t swered his defence of the substritasury hill. The | debate continued at length; Messrs. Calhoun, Clay ami Wright discussing the propositions to refer, which was canted 27 to 20, —when the Senate adjourned. After some private business the House resu med the consideration of tho report of the Coni- ( mitlee on the Duel —the question being on the motion ol Mr. Williams of Ky-, to reconsider the vote by which the House struck out Use second branch of Mr. Adams’ motion to recommit. ‘ There being not a quotum present, o csli of the'House was ordered end proceeded in till 175 1 members answered to their names. ‘Mr WISE protested against a suspension of the call, until tho attendance of the absentees was en forced. The doors were closed anil the names of absen- ; tee* entered on the journal. The doors were open- j ed and the cull suspended when Mr. WIL* 1 LIAMS withdrew his motion to reconsider for 1 the present. The question being then on tho motion of Mr. ADAMS to recommit the report, f 1 ' 4 -am * mt "" 1 ■ ~ ■ •'— — ~ M •, ~ ~,j , ir with iiislrnclioiiH to report [lie testimony without i- any argument. a Mr. ADAMS took the floor ami spoke is sup. ■ port ot the motion for some hours. He stared ,l that liu main object in arguing this course was it to bring the discussion and proceedings of the House on tho subject to a conclusion, by n shorter s process than that which the report indicated. Mr. WILLIAMS of Kentucky renewed his j motion Hi reconsider'the vale, striking out that i) part ot Air, Adams’motion to recommit, which discharged the committee from all further consi . deration of the question whether there has hern any breach ol the privilege of the House commit' . led. i Mr.'l HOMAS of Md. spoke in ieplv to the r gentleman from Massachusetts. .Mr BOON followed also nr reply to the gen- I Usman from Mississippi. i Mr MURRAY moved to lay the report and the r whole subject on the table. ■ Air WISL said he hoped the House would luko cure to have ns members present at ttiis vote. The question was then taken and decided in the negative—veas 57, nays 121. i Mr ELMORE spoke on the motion to reco n mil.

Mr FLETCH ER of Vermont, wished, he said, the whole subject to go hack'to the Committee. He moved to add to tho motion the reference of the petition on the subject of tile duel to the Committee with instructions to report upon the same, Mr MERCER said, the Commiilco had reports ed upon the petition. Mr ELETCHER said they, hail reported, it was trua, but that part of the report was not sent hack. After some remarks from Messrs Mercer, Sintle. and Adams, the motion was agreed to — ayes R'J, noes 80. Mr LOOMIS moved to arnaotl by adding the words “except as to the breath ol privilege,” to the instructions. Mr NAYLOR opposed the motion. AU I-EGA RE moved an amendment. The House as cr some further procceUtngs ail. journed- M. From the Richmond Enquirer. The Elections in Virginia. It is idle to despond ; but we are beaten in Vir ginia. Wo have lost ilie House of Delegates. We still retain the Senate. After making every allowance for the exaggerated accounts which ru mor has wafted in our ears ; and after the mosr favorable cstinmles of all the remaining counties, we admit at once that the Whigs have carried the House by at least it) or 13 majority—perhaps from 13 to IC. They may even have as great a majority in tho next House of Delegates, ns we hail in the last. They can already count up 48, nndyqmu.ling Franklin, CO Delegates, which they, have won, to 20 ofourown. Allowing the counties which arc to come in, to ho the same ns they were lust year, and we should got about 37 Delegates to their 31.—This estimate would give them in the House 71—anil ' the Republican parly 03. But as some of the same causes may be fairly expected to operate up fl tl tire residuary counties, as have shed their malign ulluencc upon the others, though not in ' the same proponion, we ought to allow a heavier | majority to the Whigs than the above e-tirnatc • asciihes to them. We would nnwchcrfully com ; promise fur a majoriry ot 10 or 12. There will in all probability ho no changes in the Senate against lire Administration. We shall make one gain. Wo dare not calculate upon any more. We scarcely apprehend any losses. The parlies, when they arc arrayed on their old par. i ly grounds will probably stand as twenty one to eleven. Though wo may not have strength I enough, on joint ballot, to prevent the election of a Whig Senator to the Congress of the (J. S., j yet the Senate is strong enough to checkmate the . political mo linen vres of the Whigs in lire House, I No resolution can pass, to instruct Mr. Roane 1 oiil of his seal —none eon he carried in favor of a Bank of the United Stales. From Ibis galling shame,at least, the Old Dominion will he safe. We mean not to disguise the truth—We wish to conceal no fact, however unpleasant to us ; or to break nfflhc force of the shock, by any sophis, lical glosses or puling complaints. i We, therefore, declare the following to ho the I stale of the game.—Wo have lost 3 Delegates in I Albemarle.—l most probably in Alleghany—l in j Amelia—l in Amherst—l in Brunswick—kin Buckingham—3 in Campbell—l in Charles , City and New Kent—l in Culpeper—l in Fair- i fix—3 in Franklin —1 in Frederick—l in u Greensville—l in Jefferson—l in Meiklenhurif —1 in Powhatan—l in Rockbridge—l in South- !l amnion—23. And we have gained only Mlaffird—and iioon , in King George—making 21 nett loss against us j —equal to 4G voles in the tale of rhe House.— i This is had enough; anil wo should he satisfied d o rein tin fir rue -utce in the residuary counties, ‘j But we can scarcely dare to flatter ourselves with ( Mich a result. „ Union Couusk, Long Island.—The in ces over the Union Course commenced yes terday. - The great produce stakes of forty four sub scribers, §lOOO each, mile heats, matin four years ago, waa tiro chief attrac: ion.
