a mutiny broke out, headed by. Passed' Midship

number, including the apprentices, remained
faithful to the officers, and after a short but se:

and put in irons.
Zourtmartial was, held the same .niglit;'_ Mr.
Spencer; he gunner and the master-at-arms were'
fo.und guilty and.sentenced to death, which soh.
tchcc was carried into execution the next morn
bs 2t hatiging „at the yard arm.
The plot'of the'mutincerals
,have
long in" arrangement and preparatiori, - and their .
intent was to pi urde r' the officers, seize the ship,.

Another account says that a largo proportion
of the mutineers wore from among the apprenti

were not, petty officers but sailors. This ac.
Count says that:the rjlot was disclosed by themes,

we understand, the surviving mutineers were
transferred to. the North Carolina, and it is to be

that Gen. Morales was dangerously ill. An en.

Governor Porter's appointment of his 8011 to the
very lucrative office of High-Sheriff of Philadcl•

have heard, with no other feeling than that of un
mitigated disgust. There canto nothing more
contemptible than the manncr . in which this son,
although he may be a clever young man, has been
forced upon.the public estimation. Mr. William.
A.'porter became of age,' it is said, about a year

Virginia l and Massachusetts have got into another
ugly snarl from that everlasting source of mischief,
Slavery on one Bide and Anti-Slavery, on the other.
Virginia, having law on her side, pursues a runaway
slave (Latimer) to BoSion, and endeavors to recover
hint by legal process, which Massachusetts manages
to thwart and send the claimant home without his
prOperty.?' This, of course, excites an intense feel
ing of resentment in the South against all who`thus.
countenance a practice by which:they are deprived
a species of property guilrioteeti to dm - it by the
Federal Constitution. In retaliation for this injus
tice it is intimated .iii letters 'from Virginia, that a
decided and emphatic movementiti in contemplation,
to effect such regulations in that State as pre-,
vont else Courts of Law fronLenforcing She payment
of ankclebts or obligations flue toNorthera citizens._
It is stated that the basis of the arrangement be
tween Cen. Thoropson i our Minister at:Mexico, and
the Mexican Government, for ihnsettlemout of enr
claims on the latter, is the on the part of Mex
ico to cede California to the United States. This is,
very importaht, as such an acquisition would give to
us a'firnt footing at an important point west of that

Report of Secretary of the Navy:
The folloiving is a :synopsis of the report of the
Secretary alb° Navy.
The first topic touched upon lathe nom Squad,
ron, which is composed of bight vessels, and being
so large, has had the duties of the Wek'
Squadron imposed Its' cruising ground
now extends from the banks of Newfoundland to
. the river Amazon, including the. Carribbean Sea,
and the Gulf of Mexico., The.iteamers MissOuri
and Mississippi have been taken out fir cominii: -
suin - as too expensive, and others;substifuted. The
Brazil squaditn consists oil the Delaware 7d, the .
frigate Columbia, the- sloOPs of War Concord,John
Adams,, Decatur,and - the schooner Enterprize.-:-
eotiduct and services of this yquadron arc spoken
ofin terms of praise. The Mediterranean. squad.:
ron now- consists of the Columbus, Con ress,ra i
field, and Praire, all under the command of Com-
modoro Morgan. Orders have bqc:n given, how•
ever, -assigning to Commodore, Morris the coin
mend of tho Mediterranean squadron, and to Coin
modoro Morgan, that of the Brazil squadrim.
The squatlton in the Pacific consists of the
fri
gate United States. sloop Cyane,sloop Yorktown.
sloop Dale and the schooner Shark. A largo in.
crease of the Pacifie Squadron is earnestly re.
commended fur the most important reasons eon.
'hooted with our territorial rights.
In the East Indies, we.lirixe only two ships,
lieffigate — Corrsteltafioni—and—the slOop--;of--war
Boston. •
On the coast of Africa we have no squadron
The ratification of the trcuty with England ren
dcrs it necessary, that a squadron of at leas
eighty guns should be assigned to that service.
Of the exploring squadron under Licutcnan
Wilkes, the Secretary says it has given to th
country rich and abundant stores in all the do
partmcnts of natural history, which are now be
ing arranged, and a narrative of the expedition is
liding.prepared by Lieutenant Wilkes himself. •
•
The Secretary recomends •an increase of the
number of vesselsin actual acrviee,us well on ac
count of giving increased prOtection to our corn
mere°, as •to keep up discipline among , the oill
cars. He proposes that the squadrons of the
liediterranean,and Brazils, as also ti ose of Mc
Last Indies and . Pacific, should consist of the
same number of vessels and of the t 3 atno class,
and that, at Suitable intervals, they should inter
change stations.
Touching the, reorganization of the Depart.,
vent by the act of the last Congress, the Sucre
ary • states that the law has been carried out as
far ashes been found practicable, and the advan
tages are manifest and great. The system, how.
ever, is said to be imperfect, and this is ettribu.
ted to the changes which it underwent in the
House, after passing the Senate.
personnel of the Navy is a subject discuss
ed at considerable length. That abuses exist,
and that the public eye is occasionally offended
..with displays of disreputable behavior, is . admit
ted ; but the Secsetary thinks this might be ex.
peeled of any body Of men of, equal numbers.—
Reform must commence with the midshipmen,
who are the prospectilie lieutenants, commanders
and captains; with this view the present loose
systern of appointments to .this offices assailed,
and a corrective proposed :. Tho proviso of the
Appropriation Bill of tho last Congress, limiting
the numbor ot midshipmen to the number -who
were in the scrvicc - en the Ist January, 1841 ;
and of other officers to the number who wore in
service on the Ist, January, 1642, will, if persist.
ed in, prove extremely unfortunate in its action,
inasmuch as it will be impossible to furnish the
proper officers of our ships of war, suppOsing
any considerablo 'number .of our Captains and
commanders to be employed..
The Secretary recommends a suitable navy.
undeisouic fixed and permanent plan—and that,
in order to havo,officers properly disciplined, the
vessels be kept as much as pessible at sea. He
also recommends the establishment of naval
schools onshore, for 'the education' of midship.
men andthose wholti't candidates for appoint
-frien6 in the navyand!Propoies - a - system of
compulsory furlough, which will compel ,negli—
gent or unqualified officers to retire froin the navy
on half pay.

general dispfrsition to' -economise. The' „llama
causes have induced a reduction of .the estimates

than these of 1840. Thiii Secretary believes that
the present milifary establishment of the country
may be maintained for 63,100,000, not including
stores, Ste., nor expenses of erecting .fiatilieations.
The recominendations for the ordinance service
for the year,commencing July,lB43,are $775,500,
and in' the Engineers Department for the next
eighteen 'months 81,245,500 aro asked. The
whole turiount of 'estimates for the military service
for the fiscal year,ending July 1, 1844, is 84,144,.
454. The estimates for, pensions -far 1843 are
$697,650. In the Indian Dcpa:rtment the expons.
es am regulated. by law and will amount-in 1843
to 8791,484.
The' Secretary states that arrangements have
bcon made with nearly all the Florida Indians to
remove beyond the Mississippi; and that doting
the . year 450 have been shipped, 'and-20U more
surrendered. A force of 1644 men is retained in
Florida. The:troOps Withdrawn have been sta.
tioneit at different points.
• A strong force has bethi . placed- on Red River,
under Gen. Taylor, to keep the Indiana in check,
and to prevent any attempts to engage in the con.
test in which

From the general returns of the army it ap

The nint important busineSi in the Senate to

up. Several Senators, who voted for its passage
now declare themselves opposed to it. Mr. Tull
:I:ado and Mr. Crittenden wi.re the principal,
speakers, and expressed themselves most freely on
the subject ; The correspondent Mtn: Baltimore
American gives the following_as the_psibsialice of
tt:eir remarks :
Mr. Crittenden was apprehensive that' public
opinion was now against the Bankrupt law, and
he knew that it was so in. his State. He had pre
ferred a Bill of limited duration 'tit one of a per
manent character. Ho was now in favor of the
repeal of the law.,. He believed it had accomplish
ed muel . good, and that many an honest and un
fortunate man had been relieved by it.
'Mr. C.‘ believed also diet there had been some
cases of fraud committed, hut this was the fruit
of all human laws. Ho 'believed the law now in
force hail its slays, and produced its good effects.
He looked forward to a repeal therefore at the
present session of. Congress: .The resolution in;
troduccd he was willing to vote for, if it should be I
modified by striking out the call for the points of
law under which the decisions hail been made.
Mr. 'fallinadge said ho would not say one word
upon the merits of the laiy at present, further than
. to remark that he thought the Bill had been gain.
ing friends eyery day since its passage, and with.
•in his own knowledge there acre many creditors
formerly opposed to—the, laW who were now its
friends. Ile did not think the resolution was open
to ►lto 'objections named, and ho believed that the
information asked for would not be as complicated
as .was.imagined. Adjourned.

had proposed terms to the President after the Veto
of the first Itunk.lfill, to the effect that if the cabi.
net might remain unmolested, a second bank bill
would not be presentL.d.
This Mr. B. prcuouneen a calumny, and pro
posed an investigation, with a Select Committee' to

The heavy burdens proposed by Mr. Biddle—
as-well as , the plunder of the "Institutions for
the Blind," "institutions fertile Deafen.] Dumb, "
and the , " Commit Schools "-:—are to produce
enough to pay the interest, and enable the State
to finish the North Branch and Erie Canal !!
Whocan endure such it noran,ce. of the true inter.
eats of the State? •
The North .Branch and Erie Canals cannot be
completed short of $5,000,000, as any man who
has sought for information elsewhere than in those
patent engines of deception, Canal.. Commission.
era' and Engineers Reports, well knows. And
when they are finished,- instead of yielding a
revenue 'they will coat hundreds of thousands of
dollars yearly to keOp them in repair
The - whole scheMe, therefore, may be summed
up thus—viz; •
In the first place, it is impracticable.
In the second place, if it wore practicable, it
would be most oppressive. and injurious to the
ComnionWealth..
'lt would crush the people with taxes; • -
It would incrcaie ,the, unprofitable Public

Mr. NICHOLAS. Itienr,r, late President of the U.
S., Bank, has addressed several letters to the. edi.
, tor• of the Philadelphia Inquirer, and Ledger; up
on 'the finaneial condition of the Commonwealth.
We think these 'letters are calculated to do nine!)
harm, The just and honorablo. sentiments- 'con/
tanked in the two or three first, which 'so forcibly
inculcate the inviolability of National contracts,
and denounce Repudiation, are likely to obtain
for - the others an influence very pernicious to the
interests of the Commonwealth. ,
Agreeing-with him, as we do, upon the neces.
sity of sustaining the Public Faith, and paying the'
State' Debt, we differ with him in almost every .
particular' as tothe proper means of doing it.
Mr. Biddle's whole plan goes upon the ground
of retaining the - Public Works in thehands of the
State; and out of this grand mistake all his other
cribrs grow—errors which in our joilgincot arc
,inferior only to repudiating the public debt, •---
• To pay the interest of the debt, .he proposes Ist,
The clear profits of the Public 'Works, amounting
to $564,000.
flow so shrewd a min etaild,.be made to believe
that they ever prr diiced that sum beyond eipem
sea, we are at a loss to imagine. • They have nev
er paid expenses 'except one year during Mr. Rit:
ner s administration, and then there was very lit
jig, excess. For the last four years they have sunk
nearly half-a-inillion of dollars annually. The
1 statements put, forth by the officers employed on
them are always fallacious; and outstanding debts
afterwards brought iii, produce the result we have
stated. !
. . .
He next proposes to reduce the Legislative ex
penses. This, we 4cnit,.mig,lft be done by. cur.
tailing the Printing,. whieli one year amounted to
the enormous sum of_ 196.1,000 !---It might- all:he
- done for $5,000:. But the printers of all parties
CQll , liitle to keep it up, and party sustains, and is .
likely to sustain
_them. Other qcontingencies"
might be pared down. But the proposition to re
duce the pay'of members to. one dollar per day,
SOIIIIII9 more like the demagogue,. or the aristb
era t e hardly know which—them the Sta tes
mi 11. _lt .would send to
.the - Legislature none but
thc. rich, who could. support himself; d!'. the yoga ,
bond" who had no better business at home. -
Put the •most unworthy proposition Atr.. Bid&
s—is to withdraw the appropriations from
ritable and Literary Associations; and espe.
rn,"y fr•oni COMNIoN Selloo/.3-: • The •Common
.S.•:•itol system he denounces wholesate; andgives

We do not believe theie is another man in
P. iimiylvtinia, who can read and write,. who at
Ili , day, whoutd have had the hardihood to utter
s o , h a sentnnent ! The revolution in favor.of
('•••mm~n Schools is one which never goes back..
rd; and never will; until an era of barbarism
come upon us, and convert us into savages.
It is difficult, as experience has shown us, to intro
dove such systems at first. Ignorance and Ava,
rh•o always oppose theOT. But. when.onie estab:
li.hed, those who have enjoyed them would as soon
with the light of "leaven. And Mr. Biddle
would be doing- no greater evil to the community,
Irid he gone about to put out the natural eyes of
the people, and filled to overfliuting those "Insti
tiulons for the Blind" which be proposes to beg
gar in order to dig mew canals, nod keep old ones
in repair .
dle denotthecs the Free School plan " as not war.
thy of the name of system, beidz without
and witlynit efficiency," His great °Nee
tion to it seems to be, that it is "not imperative;
that its.adoption in townships depends on the Will
of the people."
We had supposed, inn popular government, that
the will of the people ought to govern even in
cases of obvious utility. . But if it were other
wise, Mr. Biddle oto•ht to know that without that
fi.uture, it could never have been introduced at all.
The same provision exists . in New York. We
think it was some what Wit for this gentleman
to condemn the system which has nude 'New
England and New York the admiration and the
envy, of the intelligent men of other States.
Mr. Biddle proposes'. further,,to add new taxes
on real and. persona? cstato —(in addition to last
year's tax of 81,200,000!)—of • $156;000
On roam, (50 cents por ton,) 750,000
Poll Tax, ($1 per head,) 500,000
On Tea and Coffee, ' 300,000
• • .
"Stamps," 100,000
Which with present. taxes and income, he says,
would produce to the State 83,997,319 42
The tax on coal is a just one, The public
Works—(the foundation of the Public Debt)—
have given their whole value to - the Con? Mines.
That article should be taxed to pay the interest
The Pull tax is too odious to be endured for a
moment. No Legislature will ever_ dare imperial
it
The tax on Tea and Coffee, now deemed needs.
saries, is-equally impolitic, It will never he laid.
A new "Stamp Act" would bo
,proposed by
unman at all acquainted with the people.
Thus, we see, that all Mr. Biddle's schemes .for
paying the public debt arc impolitic or impracti
cable. The, only thing which he proposes which
can or aught to ho, ‘ made applicable to it, in our
judgment, is the taxes of about sl*o,ooo, and
the Coal tax.
