against'the tariff act of MIL I Toted for the act of
1832, which contained modifications cf some of the
objectionable provisions of the act of 1828. As a
member of the Committee of Ways and Means of the
House of Representatives, I gave my assent to a bill
reported• by thatComrnittee idDecember, 1832, leak
ing further modifications of the act of 1828, and mak
ing, also discriminations in the impositions of the du

was superseded by the bill commonly called the Cum

In my jodgment, it is the duty of the government to
extend, as far as it may be juacticablo to do so, by
its revenue laws and all other means within its power,
fair and just protection to all the great interests of the
whole union, embracing agricaleure,manufactures, the
mechanic arts, commerce, and navigation. I heartily

POSTSCRIPT.
PHILADELPHIA RIOTS. - RENEWED!
We publish above an account of an excitement in
Philadelphia, arising from some arms having been
found in St Philip's Church. The Baltimore Clipper,
of Monday. received last night, gives the following ad
ditional particulars:
The riots in Southwark, in the neighborhood of St
Philip do Neri Catholic Church, Queen street, above
Second. which commenced on Friday night, but was
quieted by. the ,filtocit were renewed un Saturday
night and
During..An Whole Of Beterdey, knots and eiewd s of

under coniontod of Biel. Gee. Pettersee, Brig. Gen.
Cadwallader, land Col Pleasanton of the Artillerjt.
The Sherif 'a civil force were oo the ground-sarly
in the evening, dispersing crowds, stall quieting the
malcontents.
A large crowd of persona continued 'bonsai day and
evening. About dusk, the military took command and
cleared the streets. The Hibernia Guards, Capt Cal
lahan, were placed inside thechurch.
The military ordered them to disperse but they
shourepq derision. An order was given by Col. plea
santer), to Capt Robt K Scott, of the tnideitlhtder
Greys, to "fire." The captain arrayed hid seep;-bit
before he repedted the word, dnee!' the crowd in front
of him had run away, leaving thatportiou of the street
clear.
In this melee several were arrested; some placed in
the watch house, and others in the church
When the wo rd "fire" was given by Col Pleasanton,
Hoe Charles Naylor ran out and said—"No, don't
fire." At which General Cadwallader ordered him
under arrest, and to be placed in the church.
This created great confusion. The She, ill's officers
interfered, and desired his release, but the Gencrat
sternly refused, and Mr Naylor and the othorsro
mained in custody.
The other party were more obdurate, Gen Cadwal
lader daybed among them with his horse, one of the
crowd seized the bridle, and the General struck him
over the ann with his sword. A brick was then
thrown at the General which struck him on the knee.
Early in the morning the crowd gathered again—
went to this wharf, took a cannon from the brig Venus.
at Seventh street wharf; another they dug up and
cleaned, and loaded them a ith spikes.
These thevdragged up in front of the church, poised
thew, and threatened that unless Mr Naylor was re
leased, they could destroy it. Nothing being done
the crowd rushed upon the building, Woke in the side.
door witlya buttering ram, shattered the walls, and
brought out Mr Naylor in triumph. This was about
12 'o'clock, and there C'enr four military companies
inside at the time.
About three thousand escorted him to Isis dwelling
house in Fifth street, above Prince, where he made a
speech requesting them to disperse and go home gni
etly.
The mob then went back to the church, took the
cannon to the back to destroy it, unless the Hibernia
G erns were removed from the church.
Mr Levin, Mr Titus and Mr Thomas D Grover, (all
leading Native Americans,) promised them, if they
would disperse, the Greens should be removed at 1
o'clock. , They were not removed at that bout--.-the
cannon was then placed—then the torch applied. At
this point Mr Grover jumped astride the cannon--the
mob then ran of with it amidst cheers.
Finally the Greens were removed—hut they were
no sooner out than the mob attacked them—they dis
persed, one was nearly killed. At Fifth and Small
streets, one of them rushed into- is house and dischar
ged his musket from a window, wounding a boy. This
is up to 3 o'clock, and the fighting may be said to be
only commencing.
All is in dreadfnl excitement, not less than ten
thousand on the ground.
Mr Grover kas just arrived at the Church, and is
standing in front on the steps, holding American flags
in his hands. Mr Levin is addressing the crowd.—
Several teipeetable citizens are there. The Church
may be saved
The above is dated 3 o'clock. Some of the passen
gers who left in the cars at 4, report that when they
left five persons had been killed and that the church
was on fire. Others state that one man and a boy had
been killed. and that the church had not been fired.
though the excitement was great.

ARRIVAL OF THE GREAT WESTERN
The Great Western an ived at New York on Satur
day, the 6th inst., with London dates to tha 22d.
The news is of little interest. Rev Sidney Smith
came in the Great Western.
The Conon Market is buoyant.
Eanhrrakes and drought have visited Scotland.
Earl Grey is soon to resign the Lieutenancy of Ire
land.
The Lord Mayor and Corporation of Dublin in of 6
dal robes, presented a petition to her Majesty for Re
peal. It eras briefly and decidedly answered. - -
IrVashiiagkia Hall Burst.—About half pneC.lo
o'clock on the morning of the lth inst. aflame was
seen to buret from the roof of the Washington Hotel,
corner of Heade and Broadway, tenanted by Mr John
Mariner, and owned by John G. Custer. A gentleman
who was passing at the moment, and observed the fire,
informs us that on running up stairs to the attic he dis
covered that a space in this roof about six feet by three
was ignited. Half a dozen pails of water would then,
he thinks have quenched the flames. They spread,
however with great Vapidity, and though two powerful
engines (one of them No 22) were promptly on the
ground, and the firemen made incredible exertions; the
. entire building fronting on Broadway was gutteddown
to the second floor.
The first floor was much injured by water, and the
roof of the rear building was considerably charred
The latter portion of the premises were also much
damaged by water, of which however there was not
sufficient to keep the engines in full play.
Tiettiamage is estimated at $30.000, and is, we be•
hew. nearly if not entirely covered by insurance. The
walk oldie hotel--which was built 35 years ago—ace
very thick and appear to be quite uninjured.
The fire is attributed to various causes—sparks from
a chimney in the building which was on fire about 7
in the morning—m clisser—a fire balloon, Ste. The
one first mentiosed is probably the true one.—N. Y.
