    ADJOURNMENT OP CONGRESS.
Mr. oLMSLEY of Ky offireJ a Resolution (hat,
Hia Senate concurring therein, (he House would be
leady to adjourn on Wednesday ihe I81I1 instant.
During the day the Private Secretary of the
President announced the signature of the President
to the Dill to extend the act of incorporation to tho
Mechanic' Society of the District of Columbia.
The appearance of the Private Secretary of the Pre
ident at the bar of the IIouw created great interest,
nd hia announcement of the signature to a Bill of
cuch minor importance, when veiy important
message waa expected, creolid great laugh among
the members.
REPEAL OF THE SUB-TREASURY BILL.
The debate was resumed upon the Bill to repeal
the Sub-Tressury Bill, which closed on Saturday.
Mr. PICKENS of 8. C. spoke hia hour in de
fence of the Sub-Treasury system, agsinst the pro
posed icpcal, and in opposition to a Bank, of the
United States.
Mr, Pickens was followed hy Mr. Hunt of New
Yoik, who took the opposite ground, and contended
that under tho Administration which had favored
the Sub Treasury plan the Government had been
worse administered in the financial relations than
ever before. He showed the effects of the Sub
Treasury system upon tho country, and warmly
argued in favor of the propro-ed subntitute in the
adoption of the Fiscal Agent which had become the
law of Congress as far as it depended upon the ac
tion of Congress.
Mr. Hunt was cut short in the midst of 'his re
marks by the rulo which limits the speeches of
members to one hour.
Mr. STELNROD of Va. took ground in favor of
the Sub-Treasury system.
Mr. HASTINGS of Ohio read speech of an
hour in behalf of the Sub-Treasury Bill.
Mr. GIDDlNS.of Ohio, said the Sub-Treasury
Question had been sufficiently discussed by the A
mcrican People, the two Houses of Congress and
by all classes and parcels of I ho People, Every
thing had been said upon the subject which could
be said ; and to cut off what might be an intermina
ble discussion he moved the Previous Question.
A call of the House was than moved and with
drawn. A motion to adjourn was lost by a strong
vote ayes 52, noes US.
A call of the House was then ordered by yeas
nd nays, pending which I closed ny report.
The Bill will be repealed by a strong vote this
evening.
P. S. Nothing is known of the intentions of the
President, in reference to the Bank Bill.

Railroad Si-Ken. An instance of the amazing
rapidity with which communication can now effect
through the medium of railroads was afforded re
cently in England. A special train waa dispatched
from Birmingham to London on election' business,
at 12 P. M. (calling in its course at seven inter
mediate stations, and suffering delay altogether of
fourteen minutes,) and arrived at Easton station at
eleven minutes past three A. M., thus performing
the distance of 112 1-2 miles, exclusive ofsloppa
ges, in two hours and fiifty-teven minutes !
The rumor of an intended revolt among the slaves
In Louisiana turns out to have been without fuun
diition. The New Orleans Bulletin say a:
"We lean) from Bayou Sura that tho trial of
of the negroes had been further postponed. All
was quiet the excitement having died away. There
tvcms to cxi.-t some doubt whether there was really
any intention to revolt, and the probability is that
most of the arrested slaves will be discharged."
The history of wars furnishes few instances,
any, exhibiting a more magnanimous feeling than
that shown by tho Army of General Sullivan, at
Saratoga, who, when the British and German troops
under General Burgoyne surrendered to them and
ttacked their arms, retired within their own lines,
that they might not be witnesses of the shame of
. the vanquished. This too, after thesn very con
quered men had been guil'y of the greatest exoca
sea 011 tho inhabitants.

Died. In this Borough, on Wednesday the
4th inst., CHARLES DONNEL, infunt son or
Peter and Elisabeth W. Latarus.
Though none but Parents can folly rraliste the
bereavement caused by the death of one whom na
ture had evidently formed too delicate and lovely
for the cares, sorrows and sicknes of earth, yet
this may not preclude others from mingling sym
pathetic tear with theirs, and paying a just tribute
of respect to the memory of one, who, though but
an infant of scarcely ten months of age, will long
be remembered with heartfelt sorrow by otherathan
those connected by the ties of blood. That God
may grant to the afflicted parents thst consolation
which religion only gives to those who place their
trust in Him; that the brother and Bisters may be
led by this affliction from heaven to seek religion in
the days of their youth, is the sincere wish of
A Friewd.
In this place, on Sunday morning the 1st inst., at
the residence of his father, after a lingering illness
of several months, CHARLES MASSER, aged

Col. J. M'Faudi!! Sin: Dur ng Ihe past 24
years I hae been constantly engaged in manufac
turing flour, and during the last Vi years have been
the owner of a grist and flouring mill, and among
all the contrivances lo remove impurities from grain
I am decidedly of the opinion that I'rott's iron ma
chine is superior to any with which I am acquaint
ed, having used one in my mill about eighteen
months. Frederick Haas.
Yorkshire Millt, Dec, 1840.
I want in my flouring mill as good an apparatus
to prepare grain for flouring, as the bet,t, and I want
no belter than Pratt's Cast Iron Smul Mill. It w ill
remove smut entirely no mistake.

best improvements f..r the cleaning of grain of all

This is to certify that I have had Piatt's ('ast ar.d
viMUtit iron Smut Machine and Gtaiii Duller in
use for better than 12 months, and find il to answer
every purpose that it was intended for. Smul can
be taken out of wheat T believe eveiy particle of
it can be taken out without breaking the grain of
ihe wheat. Johs Iiim(,

Smut Mill was introduced into my mill about three
years since, and 1 lelicve it is the best article of thut
