V. S.~COA'GSIIISS. IN SENATE, on Thursday week, at the instance of Mr. Clay, the Bank Bill was laid.aside, and the bill from the House, to ■create a National Debt, taken up. . The . Democratic members were anxious to dis-- pose of the Bank Bill before entering upon the consideration of any other subject, and ■ -announced 1 their-readmess to take the Vote; but the would-be Dictator, feared that the great' measure, for which the extra session was called, might be defeated-, if the vote should then be taken, and. he therefore had it laid over. The debate upon the Loan Bill was participated in by ' Messrs. Cal- Itotm, Wright, Benton, Clay, Huntingdon, Linn, King, Allen, Buchanan, Preston,-and ■others; and occupied Friday, Saturday and Monday. It passed by a vote of3S t 0.20, The Globe says:—"Mr, Benton ■conclu ■ded the debate in a speech ofabout an hour, replete with the logic of facts and of figures. It is not of a nature to be abridged, and we can only present a part of it, leaving the rest for the full report.

Mr. B. affirmed that the Democratic ad ministration, if it had not continued, would bave gone through.the yeaV without an' ad ditional dollar, and appealed to Mr. VVood bury, who confirmed if, and gave-him a written statement to that effect. , Mr. B. examined the reasons urged as, a' pretext for this call of Congress, and deplo yed the fate of Mr. Swing, who had to find ex pout facto reasonsto justify a pre-ordain ed caiti He showed the wretched errors of MivEwing’a report, arid referred to thc-pul verizing which it rcceivcd from Messrs; .Woodbury, Wright! and Calhoun.

Mr. Evans, he said, ,'wnd the only orfe in the opposite ranks who could keep his legs under that murderous lire. Mr. B. took a rapid view of the objects of the session, and the mode of accomplish ing them, and showed that the finances were ‘a mere pretext for getting Congress togeth er to pass all the old Hamiltonian measures, and, in fact, to change the form of tire gov ernment. The Bank Was their leading mea sure, and that, like Mil ton's picture of Sin, was not only h monster, but filled with live monsters —hell hounds—kennelling .in its belly—running in and oflt—howling and growling for their'prey. Thesehell-hounds were the progeny of the Bank-debt, taXes, loans, paper money, funding system, stock jobbers,'gamblers, plunderers of all sorts. Me showed that this was the first session in which British bankers attended our Con gress to assist our legislation. But, we for bear. The speech was all ' facts and fig ures” and cannot be abridged. The full report will soon be but. In the course of (he debate, Mr. Clay of Kentucky displayed a little of hisgasconade and used some "mcaii” expressions, (we use bis own word, for which we beg which he applied, with his usual want of -gentlemanly feeling, to (hc-late administra tion. ■, From the Hartford Times, THE ENGLISH AGENCY AT WASH- ft is a well known fact tliat several Agents of London Banking Houses, are now in this country, having come over as soon as the call for the Extra Session reached England, and some of them came in the next steamer after the fact of the call for the Extra Ses sion was' known.

If there is any one act calculated to excite alarm tafid ;rou Seth ei ndigna tiimbrAVhcricalfi freemen, it is this interference of English Bankers, in our National Councils. What could be more revolting to the feelings 'of an American, than (he. the appearance at Washington, of a set of British Agents, for the purpose of dictating measures to Con gress, and who have the.boldness io address the highest officers of government, in rela tion to the measures which shall be carried oit by. Congress? \Vcre (he Democratic party'in power, these Englishmen would not dare thus to approach tlie Executive, and the head of .the Cabinet. They would not think it worth the expense of coming to tlii4 country, for the purpose- of procuring the passage of laws for their own benefit.' We ask the attention of our readers to the following, which we copy from the Money Article of the New York Herald, of (he 12th inst,, prepared by a man whose whole atten tion is devoted to the .financial operations of the country, and whose opinions are ac knowledged to be the most correct, in these matters, of any writer with the public press in this country. Read It, Americans, and blush fur the honor of your country, when English measures are made law by the popular branch of your National Legislature: 413,592 72 ■, »>«■ 22,000,000 ” 'file progress of affairs at Washington Is very slow, but full of interest. The United States Bank bill labors very hard, and par ty discipline may prove unequal to the task of forcing an unpopular bank upon the peo ple. The great measure of the dominant partyvthe distribution of. the public-lands, has passed the House, and will probably pass the Senate, under the immediate super vision of Mr* Jiales,.the ACTIVE PART NER OF THE HOUSE OF BARING, BROTHERS & CO., from whom the prop osition was first made. The following is the letter of that House dated in October, 18S9, wherein the iniquitous scheme was proposed. ' , “The continued fall of their (stocks) mar ket value.destroyed speculation, while many years will be required for real Investment to absorb all that is at present in our mar ket. We do not doubt but that such grad ual purchases will continue of the stock of well known states which do not over-issue, and which faithfully meet their engagements to their creditors, as the confidence in the resources and national honor of the United, States remains undiminished in this country, as the conviction that,;by fSncK'in vestments, England.employs herannual sur plus of capital both safely and profitably, encourages her best customer, and- binds more closely-the-ties of mutual interest -be-- tweeh the two countries. But if the ,whole scheme of internal improvements in (lie.

' We. have the honor to be, 1 Your obedient servants, BARING, BROTHERS & CO.” Simultaneously with the appearance of this circular, the New York American, which is owned by the agents, contain the details of a scheme, the leading feature of which was,-for the United States to issue 5<150,900,000 of a four per cent, stock, to be substituted for-the-200,000,000_outstan ding-state stocks, bearing an average of per cent. It was argucu that the 4 per ct. national stock, being one per cent, more than British consols, which were at' 90 could bfe readily exchanged at 25 per cent premi um fur the state This was the im pudent scheme' proposed by these men, through the 'colutiYns of a New York paper, and Was ’tontocled about the lime that Dan iel Webster's letter to the Barings, on state stock) appeared in the London prints. Since then, the federal government-jhas changed, and these men have come in to power. Their first act was to call art extra session, and the next steamer from England, after the receipt there of the proclamation of the Pre sident—brought Mr. Bat£s, THE PART NER OF THE HOUSE, to’this country.'— HE HAS BEEN IN ATTENDANCE AT WASHINGTON, and the only measure which has, up to this time passed the lower house; - is precisely thliVA6visr.D iri;the above letter, viz:-—•"National pledge,” or “Some general system - of combination.” This has taken the form of a "pledge” of the public lands for the payment of the interest. The deficiency caused in the Treasury by giving away these lands, is to be supplied by a loan to.be - negociated through this house, arid for which they will rcceivea large commission, at the expense of the people of this country. Whilc fhis grcat juggle aml publicwrong is going on, the actors claim the immunities of private citizens, and shrink from the.gaze of the public. Mr. Bates is, or was, a “Boston boy,” and wasdiclerk-withthe late MrrGray; by whom he sent to Gottcn burg, to look after the assets of J.

LVNCIT LAW—TWO MEN HUNG! Wc gave an account some flays since of an- attempt to murder Mr. Utterback in Grant county, Ky., find tlie arrest of Smith Maytlic and a man named Couch, charged with having committed the deed. It appears by the Cincinnati Republican that (he friends and neighbors of I*lr. U. would not await (he tardy process of the law, but have acted the part of judges, jurors and executioners. Mr> Utterback,. it seems, has been linger ing in a miserably statc,-r-his throat having been horribly mangled,—at a tavern some three or four miles beyond Williamstown on a much travelled road, and an object of commisscration with every passer by. He -is a citizen of Bourbon, the adjoining coun ty to Grant, and where the excitement has been increasing ever since the attempt to murder him. . On Saturday, (lie 1 Otli inst.,-in pursuance of notice, about live hundred citizens of Bourbon to which Were added soino from Scott and Harrison counties, came \ into IVilliamstown in solemn procession and most perfect order. They had chosen their Sheriffs to act forthe occasion, and proceed ed to the jail, and demanded the prisoners, Maythe and Couch. The Sheriff of Grant refused to give'them up, qr the keys of the prison; he offered however no resistance, and the people at once broke open the doors.—'»' They then took the prisoners, placed them in (in onen wagon, their irons on them, took up the line of march without the least noise or confusion, to the spot of ground where the murder wnsattempted, about four miles distant. By this lime, the number assem bled'was believed to have been at least twb, thousand. ‘ After arriving on the'ground Mr. O’Hara, a member of the bar, address ed the people for some time upon the" pro priety of permitting the law to take, its course. He was listened to with the utmost silence and respect, but without apparently, altering the determination of a single person present. The preliminaries were then ad justed and the prisoners asked if they had any thing to say previous to the closing of their earthly accounts. One of them, May thd addressed a few remarks to the people, ad mitted the commission of the act for which they were to suffer, and denying however, that it was his wish to commit actual mur der. .Religious service was then performed by a clergyman present, and Maythe and Couch were hung in their irons upon a tree, standing over the same spot where the crime was committed. Rude coffins were con structed and they, were buried. Tlie crowd then dispersed in the same perfect order. We.may add that one of the criminals, Maythe, has been long known by many cit izens of Ohio and. Kentucky-as a mail of notoriously bad character—-havingbeen con’ finedjrt different times and escaped from the penitentiaries df both States. 7 TERRIBLE AFFRAY AND MURDER AT CARROLLTON. The village of Carrollton, says the New' Orleans Picayune, was the scene! of a bloody and fatal affray oh Sunday night. Between ten and eleven o’clock ,a quiet, inoffensive young man, named-Wrii. Courlnejv after leaving the court.room, and.proceeding tw.o or three squares towards his house. was at tacked arid brutally beaten by two Dutch men., A colored woman.who'witnessed-the -assault followed theassailirig party,'.in or-, der to ascertain who they.were. On finding they, entered the enclosure of Kohri’s bake ry and. rope walk, she went in search of the employcr of Corirlricy,' and gave hitri the in forrriation in her possession.-. , This. jriari, whose.na'me was Trucsili!ll.“]lhc keeper of a coffee house on the levee, with two or three friends, nientto the £ard attached to. the. bakery, for the purpose, it is supposed, of demanding satisfaction for the -assault on Courtney. They were unable to'obtain ad mission, and after some altercation they tore down a portion of the fence, and gained ad mission, into the enclosure. Some one in side immediately 'cried out that if they did not clear out lie would shoot them. The companions of T. made theirTescape through the breach, but he was too late, a gun was discharged, and he fell'Bead. A buut twenty shot were lodged in the left shoulder; and an ounce ball entered Just be low the jeft ear. Chase was immediately given .after, the.companions.of-Truesdell, and one of them, whose name wc arcunable to learn, was fired at, and received the en tire charge of a gun loaded with shot in bis thigh. He is severely thoiigh- not danger ously wounded- Nor did this fearful scene of violence end here; A man named Por ter, who leffrlhe city by, the last train of cars, and soon after leaving the depot to go to his home, was ’likewisjtassaulted and shamefully maltreated. , He was found in the morning \vithiri Kglm’s yard,* tied hand and foot, and in a'most critical situation.— The place where he was found renders it pretty evident that heswas attacked by the party engaged in the assault upun-Courtney and the murder of Truesdell. Very early in the morning, before many were stirring, the Captain of the Lafayette police, with three or four assistants and se veral of the neighbors well armed with rifles and pistols, surrounded the establishment occupied by the Germans, where the vio lence occurred, detcrmincil to' take as many into custody as possible. The entire gang, over lorty in number, concluded to surren der themselves. They were all employed in the establishment, and during the night time occupied the buildings within the en closure.—.. Baltimore Republican . A correspondent of the Buffalo Journal, writing from Oregon City, Illinois, gives the following account of scenes recently enact ed in the thinly settled portion of Northern Illinois: - '' , Our couiifry'has been long infested With a gang of counterfeiters,- horse thieves, and petty scoundrels. In April our court, house. Vas burned the flay before Court , jvas to have commenced a term; The obje.ct of the -iJk. cape. This greatly exasperated the people. They organized a company of Regulators, two hundred .strong, and scoured the coun try several days, whipping several, fright- 5 cning away many, giving ten to twelve days for others to quit the'State. One Campbell was General of the RegUr Infers,-and mas .very, cordially haled by- the, suspected scoundrels particularly by a fam ily of the name of Driscoll, one of whom' was compelled, to quit without notice, the 2O days given him. Campbell was a man much respected, a member of the church. Last Sunday he told his .wife in the , morning he had dreamed that David Driscoll had shot him. He went (o'church, took a very active part in the meeting, re turned at night to his home, where shortly after, two men called to enquire way. He stepped to the door with his whole fam ily, as is common to a new country, and went to the gate to show the men the road. As soon as he spoke, one of them shot him through the heart, and stood still'until they were certain he was dead, whjch gave his son, aged eleven years, time to go tip stairs and get a double barrelled rifle, and snap ped it at them three times. It would hot fire, having been loaded some time; the men then deliberately walked away. One company caught old Driscoll, (63 years old) another two of his sons and took them all to Washington grove, and there the three were arraigned before a jury of a.- bout 240 men, who unanimously sentenced the,old man and the oldest.sun to die in one 1 hour. ■ ' ‘ The old man confessed stealing 56 horses in his day. - ~ ' The old man asked 20 days to prepare to die, but was told he could have but one hour; he desired his son to die Tike a‘. brave man, and-they knelt down with ministers and went to prayers. Their eyes were ban ■ daged and two ‘platoons of rifles, twenty cadi, when the hour expired, were dischar ged at them—they fell forward, dead.
