M't [Pabliahcd by Requeat ol the Society.] Mr. President and respected friends; Before entering upon the more formal part j- •! our discourse; it may be well to premise, f that many of the friends, of Temperance, i base thought proper to extend the pledge to A the exclusion «f all fermented liquors, as well u distilled spirits:—now while I do not feel -dfc prepared to decide, that, wo should interdict the moderate glass of wine "that cheers, but not inebriates" with the same rigour, with which we would prescribe the more potent spirits, which prostrate with drunkenness ; yet 1 do still believe that we cannot in 100 strong terms recommend the plan of total abstinence at a measure of farther prudence, and safely sad without fart icr preface, I will endeavor, aa it usual ou occasions so; i as lb- present, to bring mts review, tho evils of i- temperance, tliaf.rliereby the unwary may b ’ placed on their guard aga nsl Hio wiles, and snares, that llur | arch enemy of mmkiid boa spread out lor their reduction A, rum—And in tin* first place, let us ask.

Thorrdat, December 28ib. ▲ message was received from the President of the United States, enclosing a report from the Secretary of the Navy in reply lo a reso lution ; which was referred lolbe committee on Naval a flairs. MICHIGAN. Mr. GRUNDY, from the committee on the reported a bill to admit (he Slate of Michigan into the Union, on nn e qnal fooling well the original Slates; which wns read at first and second time. [This Mil contain* two sections, the first , admitting I In-Slate, and the second anthon »mg bur In receive her proportion of the sur p us revenue.] Mr GRUNDY suggested the propriety of going on with the bill. , A debate limn arose, which was somewhat , irregular and only important inasmuch ns il | shewed that the Bill would be opposed on the ( ground that the second convention was not a , h-gal convention, being called by noneof the , customary formalities, so far as any evidence \ has been furnished. This wan the ground la- » ken byMr. Morris and Mr. Calhoun, On the ) other side, Mr. Grundy, Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Benton considered the second convcn- ,y lion as emanating from the people in their primitive meetings Wnd in their sovereign ( character, to which tho previous action of ( Legislature could not have given any nddi- t liorinl authority. It was maintained that the action required from Michigan was com- t plete and in accordance with the act of last session. The early passage of the bill was urged, because the Secretary of the Trenail ry would in ten or t welve days after the Ist. of January, make a division ot the surplus mon ey under the Dnpnsite act, and it Michigan were not admitted before that division should ’ be made, she would be deprived of her share of the beneficial provisions ot that act— I To tins it wns replied by Mr. CALHOUN 1 tlint an arrangement might easily be made by 1 which the Stale of Michigan might be enli- 1 tied to her proportion of the money, even if thu act authorizing her admission should be l delayed beyond that period It was finally or. 1 tiered that the further consideration of the ■ subject should be postponed until Monday, ’ and made the special order for that day. On motion of Mr. CALHOUN, the act of admission was ordered to be printed, Mr. WRIGHT from the Committee on 1 Ginace, reported without amendment, a bill for the relief of Elisha Shinn, nml the bill was considered as m Committee of tlie Whole, and ordered to bo engrossed for a third read ing. Mr. WRIGHT also from the same Com mittee, reported without amendment, the bill from tholluuso, making a liirlber appropria tion (or the suppression of Indian bostilitier, (appropriating two millions to that object,(and called for tho consideration of the Ih'ft at ibis tune; ns there was no money in the Depart ment lo ment the current requisitions. The bill was then considered as in Com mittee ofthe who’ll?, and ordered to bo en grossed fora third reading. TREASURY ORDER. The Senate then proceeded to the consid eration of the resolution ottered by Mr. E WING to rescind the Treasury Order of ,ln- Iv 11—the question being in I lie amendment offered by Mr. RIVES. Mr. SOUTHARD who argued at length n gninst the constitutionality and expediency of the order. Ho condemned the policy oi the order as tending to make Hie rich man richer and the poor man poor. Ilocontimi ed to speak until the hours of adjournment when. The Senate adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Thuhsbav, Duo. 29,1830. The House took up lor consideration the memorial yesterday presented by Mr. Gai,- miAiTii, from certain citizens of Pennsylvania praying Congress to procure an amendment to Hie Constitution by winch the States shall be prevented from incorporating banking companies ; and also prayingthe interposition of Congress to prohibit Hie circulation of the U. Stales Bank notes of a date prior to the expiration of its charier. The question being on the motion of Mr. GALBRAITH to refer the subjt ct to a Se lect Committee, Mr. G. rose and spoke at some length in support of Hie mol ion. The constitution prohibit'd Hie States from issuing bills of credit, but the States bad ex ercised the power indirectly, Hire’ banking incorporations. The evils of Hie currency thus formed were becoming greater every day, ■ and the memorialists represent it us an in fringement upon llieir rights and liberties, and 1 n subversion of Hie true spirit and meaning | ofthe Constitution. The other object of the memorialists wns to , arresjjlte circulation of the notes ofthe lust ; B ulk of th*- U. S. These notes, Mr. O. said, were a fraud upon the country and upon the } Government. The government, as a stockhol- j der, was rendered liable for the redemption of < these notes, while, at. the same time, it receiv- i ed no profit from their issue. r Mr. LINCOLN moved tn refer tire memo ial, so ar as it related to the State Banks, to | the select committee, to which was referred < Hie President’s recommendation of a change I ot the Constitution in relation to the presi- 11 dent nml Vice President of the United Stales. ] That committee was a p geon hole for useless ; papers. Ho ridiculed Hie idea of taking up a r matter so seriously affecting the tights of the ' Slates upon the representation of twenty or r thirty individuals. The States hud exercised. | ( without dispute, the power of chartering banks , lor more than forty years, and the government i fad no power to restrict them iu the oxer close ot the right. The suggestion had neve ‘ been made before. To expect the Stales [ voluntarily to restrict themselves from creat ing banks in fortune, or to abolish the corpora tions winch they have already created, would he the most idle thing in tiie world. No 1 one—not oven the gentlemen himself, —would « he weak or mud onongh to make such a g proposition to the legislature of his own Stale f He considered the true object of the motion j to gel a party report, lo be made uso of in the party contests of Pennsylvania. Mr. HARPER, of Pa., said the memorial ■ was signed by only twenty-eight individuals, not three of whom prubaly understood am i thing about banking; and tiie only purpose in c view was to elicit something from ties House 1 which might be considered as countenancing i the viewsofa certain party in Pennsylvania. ' He admitted the evils of the present currency. 1 They were increasing, and would become ' worse and worse till some remedy could be * found. But tho evil was brought upon us entirely 1 by Uis prsent administration, which, by des- ! troying the U. S. bank, had deranged the 1 most beautiful system of currency that was e«. 1 tablished in any country. By destroying that | Bank, all check and restraint had been re- j moved from the State Banka, in consequence | ot which the country bad been flooded with ( localbank paper,and property exposed to ruin- , ous fluctuations. Mr. MANN, of New York, deprecated the v course of the debate as likely to involve the House in a long and useless discussion. * Mr. 1) J PEARCE was opposed to raising • a select comm ttee on ibis memorial. We fi bad nothing to do with the politics o^Penn- 1* sylvania, ami ought nut to undertake to tinker : . r flmXoimiiTirn to toil the prcennt § tele ol pMies thorp. Ifehc had a quarrel with any nVuer titiie inatitutions let her settle it nl l/rne. He moved that fhe,r/ieraoria!« be ro fkrr&i to the Committee on Ways and Means. After some remarks from Messrs. Denny and Chambers of Pa. Mr. Chambers moved that the memorials lie no the table, which motion was negatived, yeas 04, nays 112. Mr. VAXDEHPOEL was surprised at the opposition made to the reference of this me morial. It presented no new subjects ol complaints, and proposed no new remedies. The condition of the currency was a subject of general complaint, and it was universally admitted that the extensive and unrestrained issues of paper by the local Banks brought a train of evils upon the country. The memo rialists suggested as a remedy for ’lns stab.* of things, a strict construction of and adlie rance / lo the provision of the Constitution which prohibits the ate from issuing bills of credit, or from making any thing but gold uid silver a legal currency. There was cur tainly nothing umeaeonablo in this sugges tion. Mr. EVERETT was decidedly in favor of rhe reference of the subject to a select com uiittcc. He said the frmndu of the administra tion had talked long enough about their plans torn currency* and it was time for them to show their hands. Uncalled upon them to i-ay, in a report, what their schemes were,— whether they were for making war upon the Slate Banks, —whether they wore for estab lishing a specie currency and how. Mr. lIANNEGAN moved the previous question, which was seconded by the House. The main question which was upon the motion of Mr. PEARCE to commit to the Committee on Ways and Means, was ordered to ho pul. The motion of Mr. PEARCE was lost, and the memorial referred to a select Committee. From the New York Herald. WALL STREET, Thursday, Dee. 29. The stork market is rising gradually. Several slight fluctuations took place iu the course of the flay, Imt ihoy terminated iu n geneml advance from I to 3 percent on the fancy slocks, and a tilth in Ihe ample*. The interest of money and exchange are nsiisiml. About 2to 24 jw*r cent is freely given for short loan*, mid 107 to 1074, is the rale of for eign e|change, while it is 3 to 4, and 5 per cent, oh 31ohil< ami New Orleans. The present slate ol money mailers is supposed by mn*y to be an enigma. \\ by should stocks rise, and the interest of money be so high ? flow can you reconcile good commercial paper selling in the M trout at 2 to 3 per cent, mid fancy slocks gradually going up I We believe we enn explain the phenomena. Lurin' the last six and twel o months, the n iiiount* paid by the merchant?, in extraordinary in terest, in order to krap their to-sdil unimpaired, have been excessive. Several houses have paid away $10,01)0, $20,000,0r SOO,OOO. in premiums of 2 and 3 per cent n mouth. A procticeol ibis kind, to re lieve a sudden pressure, might ho tolerated, and would exciio no surprise or suspicion of secret insol vency. But when it continues ior several months— and almost grows into the system of doing hnsiina;*, it becomes quite alarming. No kind ol business can afford to nay 35 Ip A'3 per cent lor loans to keep ctylit and solvency up. Not only the profits of the best business, but the capital will he swallowed up by such a system. This horrid system is, therefore, beginning to shake the confidence of capitalists in commercial securities, and hence their desire to abandon the practice of buying paper, and to embark in the pur chase of slocks at thf ir present low rales, or of real estate when it can begot reasonable. The first conacqu*nc.o ol this new direction given to capital, is to increase the value, slowly but surely, of all fain y and staple slocks and to keep up the high rate ol interest in the street. The investment of money in slocks is, therefor , at their present low prices, quite the order of the day, and the abstrac tion of capital from buying up business paper, os na turally ’ cps up the high rale <»i interest among those wua are compel led to sustain their credit, by continuing the practice We have heard it stated that during the Inst year, one house has paid $65,- UOU. i Ins may he overrated, but the general state ment is perfectly accurate. . Thus do we see the real cause of the rise in stocks and the continuance of the >igl> rates of interest. With that instinctive sagacity, which characterizes they are buying in stocks at I heir present low rales, dreading at the same time, that a crush must emoc among the merchants, sooner or later, Irom the very fuel that the high raioot interest still exists iu Wall street. Again, the present stale of things plainly speak of some disorder in our comnvrcul system, besides tb • co 'fusion caused, by theactioc of the government. One party assert, that overtrading is the cause o' the present evils; another party deny it, and point io the low rale of exchanges, as proving the con trary. Is it possible that the whole commercial world has overtraded ? If ii be so, the foreign exchan ges would never indicate sue a thing. They would be like the magnetic needle under the north poll*, perfectly powerless. \\ c learn by the best commercial advices, that 74 per cent i* the common rate of interest in England in private usury transactions under lit) days—s per cent in a legal shape, and tho 24 us n commission, it is a tact, also, not generally known, that the laws of England «<o not apply to transactions extending beyond 90 days. Such being the case, is ii not ev deiu that the rise in the rate ol interest, simultane ously, in London, Paris, New York, and Now Or- , leans, aad all the intervening cities has a conn inn cause, ami springs from a general disorder? What is that disorder? Wei all this overtrading—doing business beyond the wants of tho community—cre ating more values than ihere arc purchasers. All ilic i* symptoms resolve themselves at last into this simple conclusion — hat in a lire o nc.rai pence, during twenty years, man .faclurinff ana rumm.tr’ rial industry hus outrun agricultural industry and jMpul dion. This result is made more clear and cogent by the extraordinary fact, that agricultural products—the basis »f population—such as flour, &e,. have in creased in vaiuo lu, VO to 30 per cent, all over the commerced world, while the products required for iiiiinularturiiig industry, such as cotton, are fulling ra, fitly. lienee, the present slaleol things is entirely natu ral, m,U will gradually cure itself; and the present high tales ol interest cannot emuimiu beyond a eiaiplu of months or more. II those who have been paying i!0 to 30 per cent, require a continu ance, they had better break now Ilian postpone it to another day. J hey cannot stand it .sit months longer, ami the capitalists, knowing that, begun to invest their money in the purehaseof stoeks at low rales, w hich, if thoy do not yield 2or 3 per cent a month, will at least yield a larger profit in the lon i run than the hazardous commercial securities.

CotraTsntr ,iM) M.vnutiGK,—Many happy marriages might lake place but for the want of opportunity in individuals of congenial disposi lions becoming acquainted with each other. The difficulty is increased in a largo community, de> voted to money getting among the men, and dress and shopping among tho woman. Many lovely ladies are so much engaged in shopping excursions up and down Broadway—across to Maiden Lane—through the Chatham street, that they have not time to gel married or get courted until hey ate on tho verged’ uncertain age,that is of thirty. Others again are too busy prying into their neighbor's affairs to devote a single moment in winning the affections of u man of sense". Great evils correct themselves, hut of this confusion and want of system, some ladies have very wisely taken up a method of procuring husbands, which does not interfere very much with their avocation* and fashionable excursions. A few months ago a gentleman advertised for a wife. The following is one of the answer ; Mir—Having noticed in the Herald your ad vi rtisement fora Wife, I am induced to oiler rnv •elf to you ns such. lam 20 years of age, of small stature, good figure, but not very hand some face, so I think, hut of that I will leave 1 yon to judge.

Perhaps 1 have not drawn quite »o flattering a portrait as to make you anxious to see me. I will close by subscribing myself yours, most rcspectlully, We have since been informed that the gentle man accepted the invitation. He purchased a ticket and attended Mr. Parker's ball. In ten minutes alter his entrance he recognized the green dress”—“crimson flower,"and “fair com plexion.” He procured an introduction, or in troduced himself—danced with her—found her agreeable and talkative. Before the last dance but one, he alluded delicately to the advertise ment in tho Herald, at which the fair girl held down her bead —blushed—and then looked kind ly into his face. “Did you not write to the advertiser 1” asked he, “I might, and I might not,” said she, smiling.

CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. AUGUST A: Turstlay Evening, January 3, 1837. We present, this evening, the first number of the Chronicle & Sentinel, to the patrons of both the papers whose joint name it bears. To the patrons of both, we lake the first opportunity to tender the compliments of the season—to wish them, in the homely, best, hearty and friendly phrase of the day, “a happy New Year.” The year 1836,1ike thousands of our fellow beings who witnessed its commencement, has passed away with its tears and its joys, its pains and its plea sures, and exists now, only in_Ufo mer/ioiy tlii' (hose whom the kindnpjs of Providence has per mitted to survive it. With the new year, we have entered upon new plans to enlarge the sphere of r/ar usefulness, and humbly hope, that if we are spared to see its close, we shall do so with a con sciousness of having discharged to the full extent of onr abilities the important and interesting du ties which devolve upon us from the nature of the station which we occupy before the public generally, and our patrons in particular. To them wo look with a firm and abiding confidence, mingled with feelings of gratitude for the past, to I extend to us a liberal, generous and encouraging support. Aware es lh» responsibilities which we 1 assume, —with a full knowledge of the i toil and labor we must undergo, and of the 1 which will beset us, we come to-vhe struggle with . a firm and unflinching resolution to fulfil tho ex • pectations of our friends, and to merit a generous I share of the public patronage. I (£/■ We were rather premature in annonneintf , in the Sehtinel of Friday last, that we shouuL commence the daily publication on this day. We , did hot allow ourselves sufficient time to make t necessary preparation; but having made the 1 promise, we have thought it best to redeem it, — I Our paper does not present a fair specimen of what we intend shall ho its Usual appearance at , ter we have gotten fully under weigh. The ad vertisements are not arranged properly, which , we shall endeavor to correct more and more eve - ry day, until they present a uniform and har.d- I some appearance. The accumulation of business attendant upon the union of two offices, the arranging of bocks I D I types Ac. has deprived ns of tho power of pre ; wilting much necessary and proper commercial . intelligence. In the course of two or three days. . however, we shall be able to give the paper its ‘ proper tone. Persons having business with the Editor, arc ■ requested to call, after this evening, at the Office i on Broad srreet, formerly occupied as the Citron • icle Office. Our advertising friends are requested to hand in their advertisements as early as possible—by 10 o’clock M, at least. An advertisement box, will he left at the Office on Uroad-st., in which they may be deposited at all hours. dj - We send our Daily paper to all our city Subscribers, during the present week. There are seme no doubt, who will prefeV to lake the semi weekly paper; all such will please give us notice before the close of the week and their papers will he served to them as heretofore every Tuesday and Friday morning. Those who do not notify its to the contrary within that period, will be con sidered as Daily subscribers from tho present lime, and the paper served to them as such. THE ELECTION. Messrs. V.
