Or-Much speculation is afloat a 3 to the tone of that part of the President's Message in which our relations with France will be treated. Some are of opinion, that, in con• eequence.of certain articlesin the Globe on the subject, it will be decidedly warlike— whilst others are inclined to think that it will be quite pacific. At all events, such speculations have caused much interest an the subject, and many are looking for the Message with great anxiety.. in the different cities to the Bust, preparations have already been made for the delivery of ' the Message in the shortest time possible after its being sent to Congress. We cut the following paragraph, in re ference to the tone of the Message, from the Washington Telegraph:— "Tun Watt MESSACE.—The Northern papers anticipate a War Message—a thun- dering denunciation of France, and a call on Congress to uphold the wounded honor and violated rights of the country. They will be disappointed. There was something of the kind in contemplation; and there are some persona now who would prefer that course. A more wily and insidious policy isle be adopted. The Message is to breathe nothing but Peace; and the "roaring Lion" is to be tempered down to the gentle lamb. Tht.responsibility of all war measures is to be throten on the party :n Congress!— The war notes are to be sounded there,while The Message breathes nothing but peace. This is tho state of the matter at present; and we do not think any thing is likely to occur to change the present determination." investigation of altlasonry.

G --- I).iring the pendency of the attempt to investigive Masonry at the last session o the Legislicure, Mr. STEVE :VS corresponded with scrotal gentlemen whom he knew to be Masons, a id honorable men, for the pur. pose of inducing them to aid their fellow. citizens in their attempt to suppress Secret Societies. In the course of such correspon• dente, he received the following letter from Mr. TAnn,.a very intelligent and respecta ble Magistrate of the County of Philadel phia. Since the election, when its promul gation could not be supposed to be for politi cal purposes, he has obtained the author's consent to its publication. How fir above the timid adherents of the Lodge, are those who have moral courage enough to testify the truth in defiance of its frowns! Letter from A. D. Tarr, Esq. Pill LADELPHIA, 22d Jan. 1935. DEAR SIR, I was some years since induced, by very many misrepresentations, to join a Masonic Lodge; so soon as I had received the first degree, I felt myself imposed upon, yea, in jured by the deceptions practised on me.— My disappointment I mentioned to several members of the Lodge on the same evening, and was answered by their urging the no• cessity of my advancing, in order to more fully understand and duly appreciate what had been already imparted to me, and which I was assured would then command my un divided attention and admiration. I (like Eve of old) accordingly became more de• sirens, and at their instance alone advanced to the third degree, (which is known among Masons as the' Master Mason's degree,) re solvingnot to condemn it before I could com prehend its nature and objects. But alas! and alas! I found with increased disgust, that none of the subsequent (in the least) elucida ted any part of the unmeaning mun:ery of the prior degrees. But tho absurdities equally at variance with reason, science, his• tory, morality and religion thickened as I progressed, and induced on my part an in• voluntary, but just contempt for the Masonic rites, and the disingenuous .crafi. by which I had been enveigled into the order. Ido not wish to reflect upon those by whom'l was introduced, for I do not for a moment suspect that I was treated worse in that res pect than bad been the very members who .fiad caused my initiation, nor can I consid or the blame chargeable to them, but to the institution, whose interest they conscien tiously considered as the first of duties in cumbent on them to promote by obtaining recruits by the common means that had en listed themselves. Were Masonry a secret, it is probable that I would not have the uncommon cour age to bleak it' impious trammels and rend the veil. The honor of that most merito rious act, however, is duo to others, who have long since exposed all that I ever knew, and much more. Be assured, Sir, Masonry now has no Secrets, (and I think I may say, will have but a short existence.) It is, therefore, impossible for me to divulge them; but the love of country, Patriotism and humanity, enjoin the duty of my appos. ing my most solemn testimony to those who conscious of the gross attempts impudently mado and circulated to deny the truth of what so many worthy Seceding Masons have solemnly published (to the world) as the secrets, rites and ceremonies of the (Masonic) order. Situated aa I am in a Public oce, I al most daily witness these equally fraudulent and impudent endeavours to support an In stitution, (whose temple is the home of ty. ranny and the school of vice; it is the place in which the inconsiderate and unsuspecting young man takes upon himself a task, which the laws of God and Man forbid,) its cor rupting influence constantly nullifies the oath of the Legislator, the Judge, the Ju ror and the Witness. Defiles the channels of government, and desecrates the temple of justice. These remarks are not made from any malicious motives, but after the most mature deliberation, I conceive it to be a sacred ifu. ty, which I owe to my God, my country,and myself, to express my opinion as to the total imcompatibility which exist between the Masonic obligations, as imposed by secret and extra judicial oaths: and the duties of a Magistrate, under the Laws and Constitu tion of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to administer justice without fear, favor, or partiality:—And further, having become conscientiously scrupulous of holding faith to its Profane and Impious rites, as a mem ber of the Christian Community, as well as a good citizen bound by a civil oath to the welfare of Society: And deeming my Ma sonic Obligations inconsistent with the dm charge of any of these paramount; I do hereby renounce, and put from me forever, all the rites, ceremonies, forms, and obliga tions, imposed by and in the Columbia Lodge, No. 91, for Philadelphia city and county, of Free-Masons, under false preten ces, and for purposes which I have found to be illusive, criminal and deceitful. -1 have given to you, sir, my own experi ence, and sentiments, in detail, which have influenced. me to adopt, and pursue a course which no doubt will bring upon me much persecution and obliquy: as far as obliquy can attach to him who renounces the opin ions of those, bound to do wilairfal acts, by secret oaths and horrid obligations. The first charge that Masonic bigotry will ad wince against me,will be the violation of an oath! To which I answer—that those only are criminal who impose an illegal and ex tra-judicial oath! And that the deluded Ma son who is enticed into a Lodge, und,nr any rem -, sentations, and sworn at the peril of his life, is only guilty so long as he obserVes the oath; and hesitates to disavow . and re• nounce the imposition. The laws of society proscribe this oath as illegal imil nugatory: Whereas, the civil oath of the citizen, and the official oath of the Magistrate,bind me to observe the Laws of God and of man, in preference to those, Unposed in darkness, fur wicked purposes, and unknown to the honest intentions. of so ciety, and the true ends of governnient, Law, order nod justice. In doing this I unhesitatingly perform what I have long since determined on the full and entire expression of my sentiments, and 1 have firmly resolved to contribute my humble aid and support, to ab dish decided. ly the greatest evil and disgrace with which our country has ever been cursed or dishon ored. With sentiments of the highest Esteem, I am, sir, your Obedient Servant, AUGUSTUS BF: KALB TARR. Hon. Tll.l DDEUS STFINEris t Member of the Legislature, Harrisburg, Pa. Gettysburg--its Institutions, &c frrThe Editor of the "Lutheran Ob• server" has lately been making a tour thro' this and some of the adjoining counties: and on his return to his post, under the head of "own RECENT JAUNT, - ' is giving a sketch of his excussion—from the first number of which we make the following extracts, re ferring directly to our Borough and its In stitutions: On Wednesday we hired a horse and ha roadie, and while others were hastening to wards "sweet home," we turnld the head of our portly steed toward Gettysburg, as the most convenient route to Chanrbersburg, where we had engaged to assist at a sacra mental season on the following Lords' day. We found Gettysburg, Wittenberg, as the students would fain call it, but it is fl leetle too early—or perhaps rather too late to as sume that venerated appellation for the seat of our Theological Seminary; we say we found it evacuated, not that the inhabitants had been frightened away by the cholera, tor thank God this tell scourge of the human family had not prevailed in that very health ful and peaceful borough; nor was the town laid in a heap of ashes, for incendiaries have never yet found foothold there, and a confla gration is an inexperienced novelty. But what we mean is, that the College and Sem. enemy were evacuated and the silence of death pervaded those institutions—lt was VACATION. "The new English Lutheran Church— we mean the new building which the English part of the Lutheran church in Gettysburg are erecting, is rapidly progressing toward completion, and when finished, will prove an ornament to the town and exhibit a beauti ful monument ofthefiberality of the citizens- It was already under roof when we were . there, and is so constructed as to combine utility with neatness, taste with simplicity, and durability with economy in expence.— A basement story beneath the whole edifice furnishes a spacious apartment fora Sunday School and for weekly lecturing, and also another comfortable room for a common day-school. The front presents a pleasant looking vestibule, in semi-circular form if our memory serve us right, the canopy of which is supported by several columns of correct'architectural proportions. The in terior was as yet in an unfinished state, but it appeared to us that the main apartment intended for regular public worship was of most suitable dimensions and just what it should be to make a neat and comfortable place of worship, and answer all the purpo ses for which it is designed. The pulpit is not to be in the form of a tub or winepipe, built upon a long pole fastened beneath in the floor and elevating the little rotunda dressed in black, away up within a few feet of the ceiling, so as to give ministers the vertigo when they ascend it, and rupture their lungs in essaying to be heard by the people below. Thanks to the improved taste of the present day, the . age of such pulpits perched upon poles or stuck up into the side wall of the building is gone by, and men now erect reasonable platforms not at the side but at the end of the building, remem bering that on plain philoso,Thical principles it is as easy to hear a man twice the distance when in front of him as when seated to his side. There is, however, still a tendency to build pulpits too high, and if men would only take time to view the matter scientifi cally, considering the philosophy of sound, especially of that issuing from living organs, they could not but perceive the absurdity of erecting high pulpits in low churches. The pulpit in the church to question is to be built in modern style,—we hope it will not be raised more than thirty - or at most thirty. six inches from the floor, and as we - were in formed, is to be moveable, or constructed so as to admit of its being metamorphosed into a stage for the accommodation of the students at their public exhibitions. All this is just as it should be, for hitherto the Col lege and Seminary have labored under great inconvenience for want oft suitable building for this purpose; the old church is badly contrived, and we must confess that we nev or felt comfortable either when seated above on the awkward platform occupied by the young gentlemen in delivering their orations, or below and straining our necks to look up to their lofty eminence. itWe cannot close our remarks respect log Gettysburg. without expressing the pleasure it aflbrded us to be informed of the flourishieg state of the literary and theologi cal institutions in that place. The grammar school and college have been progressing witlyasteady step ever since their establish. meat, and at present have an increased multitude of students. And though a con siderable number of young men have latterly taken leave of the Seminary, having com pleted their theological course and entered on the active labors of the ministry, yet the deficienct it was confidently expected,would . he more than supplied by fresh accessions from various parts of the church, and dui tog 'lir excursion we heard of no less than smile ten or a dozen residing within the very tire• ited section of country which we traversed, who are preparing! fin. the Seminary, and intend shortly to locate there. Since our return we have learnt from one of the Pro fessors, that the young men who have arriv• there are "very promising," and that there is good cause to be much pleased with them. Surely the time cannot he fir dis tant when our church will arise and shine, having the glory of the Lord resting upon her. The Sentinel and other Masonic papers,m their zeal for their idol,over leap the bounds of truth! They state that Mr. EvEnErr was the candidate of the Whigs and was opposed by the Anti-Masonic and Jackson parties. This is absolutely untrue, and was well known to those Editors at the time. Mr. Everett was nominated first by the Anti- Masonic pa rty,and his nomination was ui ter wards concurred in by the Whigs. KrThe "Press" men are a beautiful set of boys! After sucking the Poor•Eliouse teat ever since their infancy,they kick and swear tremendously now when the people and the party, to whom they have turned traitors, ask a change! The occasion is taken, too, to vent a little more of their spleen upon Mr. STEVENS! Pshawl What petty, hide knaves? For their comfort we inform them, that the Directors will make a change if they have any regard for the will and wishes of the people. They have too much of the spirit of Republicanism in them either to sanction offices for life, or be the means of keeping those in office who have deserted their party and become the most despicable slaves of the Lodge! MP - Our young friend of the Lewistown Gazette is informed, that we quote neither a "Gazette" or a "Herald" to prove Gen. Harrison's Anti-Masonry. We will only refer to his letter; and if the Gazette can make a "good enough Autt-Mason" out of its author—why, with very little greasing, he might swallow the Grand Lodge withou t .disordering his sitorrischl ();7 - The last Carlisle Expositor has adop. ted the right course. The Editor says, "If ever Gen. Harrison gets the support of this press, it must be as an Anti-Mason." We , perfectly agree with him that "the support of the Harper's, Butler, the Traitorous thing of Gettysburg, and other kindred establish- ments, is enough to kill off any man, let his personal popularity be what it might." FROM THE NORRISTOWN FREE PRESS. To Thaddeus Stevens, Esq. When the moon spreads her light on the soft flowing stream, And the wavelike the mirror rellocts her mild beam; When the unclouded sky is with gay spangles crowu'd And nature reposes in calmness around: May thy life like this scene so tranquil and fair, Be peaceful, unclouded by dancer or snare; May virtue's true pilot before thee still beam, And pleasure's gale waft thee down life's fickle stream. This life's but a scene of enjoyment and pain, If pleasure attends us, how transient her reign; And joy spreads his ray but to make us deplore, We grasp the sweet treasure, 'tis vauish'd and o'er. Yet still may some power protect thee through life, From the storms of commotion, the troubles of strife; May the rays of contentment around thy path beam, Like the moon's gentle light on the soft flowirrgstream. Still may each kind feeling prevail in thy breast, To succour the weak, to relieve the distressed; TO teach sweet compassion. her blessings to pi ixe, And thy Maine will be blest by the good and the wise And when lie who sits on creation's bright throne, Shall summon thy spirit to regions unknown: 0! then, may thy virtues refulgently beam, Like the moon's brilliant light on the soft flowing stream! DE KALB Philadelphia County. Nov. 7, 1835. The suggestion of the names of EDWARD EvEnETT and THADDEUS STE:YENS, as suit able candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, has been favorably received by the Anti-Masons of this county, as well as by those of many other sections of the State. We think that there is a fair prospect that they will receive the nomination of the Na tional Convention.—Lancaster Exam. We are pleased to see that the opinions of the Hon. JOHN C. CALHOUN, the distin guished Senator from South Carolina, upon the subject of Free-Masonry, as contained in the extract of a letter published in this paper a few weeks since, are extensively co pied by our brother editors. The firm and manly manner in which such men as ADAMS, EvEnErr, CALHOUN,WIRT, and a host of other eminent indivivals whom we might name, have uttered their sentiments in rela tion to this exciting topic, must endear them to the liberal minded of their fellow-citizens; whilst on the contrary, the milk and water manner in Which Gen. HARBISON has seen proper to reply to the interrogatories of a respectable committee will find favor with no party. Having the reputation of a good general, we did not think that he would thus shrink from the fire, or suffer himself to be awed into silence by the thunders of the Masonic institution, even though they should proceed from the great gun of the office "hunter of Kentucky." Since writing the above, we have receiv. ed the Gettysburg Star, of the 9th inst., in which we find the following firm and manly letter from JoHN QUINCY A DAms. It bears upon its fa.te the evidence of its having pro- ceeded from a pure and uncordnminated fountain. The heart that gives utterance to such elevated sentiments must he honest. We commend it to the attentifin of all doubt. ing,trembling, shuffling politicians.—lbid. Mn. ADAMS.—An Anti-Masonic contem porary points to the Ifon.

Such a man as JOHN QUINCY ADAMS trill not--nay cannot be justly ap preciated by the truckling, hargainin ,, poli ticians of Pennsylvania. He stands too high; he occupies a position too elevated; his mor al and political character is tan exalte,l; In short, he towels so fitr ah,ve the hignited and grovelling politicians of this slate. that they ENVY and HATE him: envy him because of his transcendent virtues and intellectual worth; and hale him because of the magni tude of his genius and the stupendous great. ness of his soul, which place him beyond the pale of their NARROW, VICIOUS, and rou.e• TED MINDS! They cannot contemplate the man before whom'they dwindle into the most contemptible, pigmy insignificance; and in comparison with whom they are as grains of mustard seed.

The Boston Advocate in noticing the de- parture of Ex• President ADAMS for Wash• ington, says—" His health is now firm, and the other morning, though now 68 years of age, he walked from Quincy to his son's in Boston, eight miles, to breakfast. His kini form habit is to walk four nr five miles eve ry morning before breakfast." EDWARD EVERETT.-A Salem paper sasy—"After Mr. Everett shall have served ns Governor one year, it will be absolutely impossible to turn him out." This is high ly probable.

AN INVESTIGATION INTO MASONRY, will he made this Winter by our Legislature; at least the attempt will be made, and we hope it may succeed; as it is highly desirable to all parties to have these Secret Societies a bolished, as repugnant to the spirit of the age, and inconsistent with the forms and principles of Free Government. This ar duous task will no doubt devolve upon Mr. STEVENS, of Adams County, whose talents, industry, skill, and eloquence, qualify him in a peculiar manner, for this great under- taking. We do not see how any liberal Ma son, can object to the inquiry.—Dem. Her. OUR RELATIONS WITH FRANCE.—The Frederick (Md.) Examiner, says: The mass of the people of this country, are, we are a fraid scarcely aware of the very serious and threatening condition of our ill omened dis pute with France. The two nations occupy towards each other a position of singular embarrassment. Without any just cause for .misunderstanding,diplomatic intercourse has been suspended, and the idlest and most ridiculous punctilio seems not to have shut out ell prospect of a renewal of amicable re lations, but to belorcing the two nations, in spite of their interest and their disposition, into an attitude of reciprocal defiance. OTTR RELATIONS WITH FRANCE. --The law of, nations ought to be re-written and based on the broad principles of Christianity. It is absurd in the least degree,for Christian communities to expect that any advance ment can be made, in their respective socie• ties, when the laws which act on individuals, and the laws which regulate nations are founded on principles antagonist to each oth er. It is no objection, to urge that we are compelled to deal with infidels. Tho ma hommedhn and heathen would sooner be christianized by such a policy, than by all the 'missionaries in the world. In this epoch of mental advancement, is it not monstrous, that the peace and happiness of mankind should be put at stake for the comparatively contemptible consideration of national punc tilio; and this, too, originating not among the people, - but the people's servants. Are we for ever to go in leading-strings, and never advance the standard. of national, of human character beyond the, pitiful. limits, prescribed by what is misnamed honor and expediency?— Washington Mirror.

The packet ship Satmon; at New York, brings London dates to the evening of the I nth October. The intelligence they all contain is of ve ry little importimce to n political sense.— The English papers represent the accession cif M. Mendizabal to the Cabinet of the Queen, as productive of the most favorable results to the Constitutional cause. Many of the juntas established In oppositr•m to the measures of the former minister, M. Torre nt), had now expressed a desire to net in per. G•ct concert with the Queen. As a means of pacifying the Basque Provinces and Nav erre, it is said the peculiar privileges hith erto possessed by them, will not be infring ed; still we fear it will be difficult to induce the peasantry. who have now so lona been accustomed to predatory warfare, to return to their former peaceful avocations. Sir R. Plaskett is to go out governor of St. Ifelenu, in the Wanderer, 18, which, on returning, will stop at Rio to bring Henry S. Fox, Esq. the new English Ambassador to the United States. The Autocrat, while surrounded with the military pomp at Kalish, forgot the cries of suffering Poland. He was deaf to all their supplications, and to the discredit of the fe male sex, it is averred that the Empress has shown herself particularly hostile to every application made to the throne. The monument on the battle field ofCalm, was laid by the Potentates, and their courts and priests assembled at Toplitz, with great pomp and ceremony. The Emperors of Russia and Austria, and king of Prussia, and prince Metternich in the first rank, princes and princesses in the second, and the whole uncovered.

Riots, one of the richest men in Spain, raised to the rank of Marquis de Cassa Hie ra, has retired to Bordeaux. Ma rshal Gerard has been appointed to the lucrative post of Chancellor to the Legion of Honor, made vacant by the death of Mar shal Motier. Seven out of twelve of the Jury, being a sufficient number, according to the present law, to convict, have condemned M.

Paris papers of the Bth, mention a report that Louis Philippe is inclined to set at lib: erty Prince Polignac and his fellow prison ers in I-lam Castle. It was stated that M.

SPAIN.—A telegraphic despatch from Bayonne announced that accounts had been received at St. Sebastian of a victory being obtained over the Carlists at Vallariago, in which they suffered great k.ss. Las Navas, who was marching on Madrid, had given up his ,intention, and submitted to the govern. meat. Advices from Madrid to the 30th of Sep tember continue to represent that the ad ministration of Mondizabal was likely to put an end to the troubles in Spain. CONFIRMATION OF THE LAST NEWS FROM TEXAS BY WAY OF ARANSAS•—The Schr. Santa Pie, Standard master, arrived in 11 dabs from Copano, Aransas Bay, brings in telligence that the Texans had taken Goliad or Bahia, with about 30 men; had made prisoner the Collector (Sant Eno) and that a proportion of the inhabitants had joined the Texans—that the Collector after hav ing been paroled, endeavoured to make his escape, was subsequently retaken at La Mission de Refugio, about 12 miles from Copano, and confined at Goliad. When ta ken two letters were found concealed in his shoes addressed to Santa Anna. About 30 men had been enrolled at the Mission for the service. Likewise that a battle had been fought on the Guadeloupe, and forty men killed of the Mexicans, and two Texans. The Santa Pie was sent from here in Au gust last as a revenue cutter for Aransas Bay, and was pursued by a boat from the Patriots at the Mission, but etieeted her es cape. GENERAL MISCELLANY.

The jury in their presentment, earnest ly recommend to the judges and magistrates of that state, vigilance and increased energy in the detection of all fanatical emissaries, and in the suppression of their nefarious schemes and publications. They also re quest the state legislature to take into con sideration the existing laws against "writing or printing books, pamphlets, or other writ ings, advising or encouraging insurrection, and the circulation of all such documents," and to enact such further laws, with increas ed penalties for their infringement, as shall prove :ffeetual. UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA --Dr. ilugh L. Ilodge has been elected Professor .of Obstetrics, and of diseases of women and children, in this institution, in place of Dr. Dewees, who resigned on account of ill 'health. GEonurA.—The official returns of the e. ;lection for governor give Schley (V. B.) 31,. 197, and Dougherty ( W.) 28,670—Schley's majority 2,527. The inauguration of Mr. Schley took place on the 4th instant. NATIONAL DEFENCE.—The Charleston Courier of the 10th inst. states that Gen. WooL,ltispector General of the U.S. Army, arrived in that city on the preceding Friday, and after inspecting the Troops and Fortifi cations in the harbor of Charleston, he pro. ceeded South, via the Rail Road, to Augus ta, Geo. on Monday morning. AN HONEST ACT REWARDED.-W 6 learn from the Ph iladelphia'Enqui rer of Saturday, that the clerk of the Commercial Bank o that city, while on his way from the Bunk o Pennsylvania to the first named bank, on the preceding day, dropped a pocket book containing upwards of 15.600 dollars, which was subsequently picked.up by a young girl, and returned without loss of time to the bank. As a reward for this correct and praise worthy conduct, under the circum stances, the officers of the institution made the finder a donation of 1000 dollars. Common Cranberry juice, externally ap plied, is stated by the Medical Journal to be a specific for ring worms. MUSICAL A NECDOTE.-A gentleman who had long been desirous to officiate as choris ter, or leader of sacred music, happened to be present at a church not very far distant from Jamaica, when the usual singers were not present—und took occasion to set the psalm, given out in long metre. The new officiate struck up St. Martin's--a common metre—and ingeniously spun out the tune to the measure of the words of the psalm. On coining out of church, he was accosted by on. acquaintance, who satirically inquired, "How could a person of your musical attain melds make such an intolerable blunder?" "Poh, Pohl" was the reply—"blame the minister for fixing on a long metre psalm for a common metre tune." ACTIVE IVIEniciNE.—A caricature has been lately got up in London' nn the Hygean or Vegetable Pills. A poor wretch is rep resented as having taken a dozen for the cure of the tonth.ache; hut lying in the wet all night, the Vegetable Pills have sprouted out in various parts of his body. A great gooseberry-tree has taken root on his head —leeks, onions, and carrots, have shot out from his finger's end's—ricketty beans are hanging down his back, and mustard and cress over the other parts of his body—ma. king him a truly pitiable sight. THELAW OF TIM ROAD. -•••-•We learn that a gthilleman - ot• Carlisle, Pa. recently on a visit, with his lady, to this city, while pro ceeding homeward, in his gig, a few days since, was run feuroff by a heavy wagon, whose driver flillowed him to the very edge of the road, as it appeared, lb? that especial purpose, and despite of every effort of the person who drove the gig, brought the two vehicles into contact, and thus broke one Of the, gig wheels, besides doing it other injury, The actual damage resulting from such wanton acts, is not their most important, or most reprehensible feature, They are ael dote committed without more or loss dam age to life and limb—and tire therefore, ,whenever voluiitory,richly deserving ofpun ishineat. To shew that such atets.cannot be committed with impunity, and that the law has amply provided for the maintenance of the rights of travellers unmolested, we may mention that there was a case not yery dissimilar, but somewhat more aggravated in its character, to that mentioned above, which recently took place in Delaware, and Was brought before the Sessions Wirt of Kent County. A teamster, driving a four hose wagon, was overtaken by a pleasure carriage, containing two ladies and a gen tleman. After long endeavoring to prevent the latter from passing, the wagoner at length, after a sharp race, was thrown some• what bellied; but as the carriage took its place to the right, in front—the witooner dashed on against it, regardless of conse• quences, and such was the force of the shock, that the carriage was overturned, and the ladies thrown out, and considerably injured. The owner of the carriage brought his ac tion against the wagoner for assault and bat ecy And the testimony being conclusive, the Jury found the defendant guilty, and the Gaul adjudged him to pay a fine of twenty dollars, with costs of suit, and to be impris oned for three months. The law of the r..arl should be fully known to all the parties travelling it, to the end that the rights of every party may be properly respected, and all usurpations guarded against or punish. ed.—Baltimore Pat. CUMBERLAND, Md. Nov. 17. TIIE LOCATION of the Chesapeake and 0!,io Canal qt Cumberland, has been deci ded upon, and in compliance with a promise we made, we will tell our readers at a dis tance the ground it occupies. The Basin is to be formed about one hun dred yards below the Chain Bridge, a little to the left of the mouth of Will's Creek, at the Western end of lloblitzell's and Boy's Island. It takes a narrow strip off the lots now owned and occupied by Messrs. 11. Wi. neow, M. Fisher, J. Shriver, S. Charleg, A. Russel, M. Rizer, jr. G. Wineow and D. Shriver, who have given the right of way. The DAM, to be constructed at Beall's Island, about one mile below the town, will back the water, it is said, as far up Will's Creek as the old market house,which is near the centre of the town, forming all the way a Canal or Basin sufficient to transact any a mount of business required. It is also to back the water in the Potomac to a point near 2 miles above or S. West of the town, which will join Will's Creek at its mouth (as the River now does) and join the Basin by a Guard lock. The whole when completed will form a splendid Basin olabout four miles long and between a holland a quarter mile wide. It will present more the appearance of a LAKE than a Basin, and will be competent to hold more than ONE THOUSAND Canal Boats at the same time, and as one of our townsmen remarked a short time since, "it will afford PLEASURE BOATS and SAlL—Steam Boats, Coal Boats and trade boats. And will be a place of general resort for FISHES and WATER Fowl, of every description." Two lots of ground lying west of Will's Creek were sold last week for FIFTEEN HUN DRED DOLLARS; which lots two years ago might have been purchased for FIVE HUN. DRED. Two THOUSAND would not take them Property lying near the Basin has advanc ed much more rapidly than that we have noticed.--Advocate. The Notional Intelligencer noticing the election of Senators to Congress from Mich igan, says: "we have not yet been able to comprehend how the People of Michigan have thought themselves entitled to choose Senators and a Representative in Congress. If neither the Senators nor the Representa tive can take their seats as sdch, we do not see what purpose beneficial to the Territory, or auspicious to the destinies of the embryo State, can be effected, or hoped to be effect ed, by this premature action. It appears to be hardly respectful to the People and Congress of the United States. It is taking time by the forelock, if it be not, to use the figure of a contemporary, taking Congress by the nape of the neck. FRUITS OF ABOLITION SOCIETIES.—The Missouri Republican publishes an act passed at the last session of the Legislature or that state, in relation to free negroes and mulat- toes, accompanied with some remarks. which intimate that the law is likely to be put in force for their expulsion. MADISON, Indiana, Nov. 12- A line of oyster wagons has been estab- lished between Baltimore and Wheeling.— They heat the mail stages. An oyster can now be caught in the Chesapeake, brought over the mountains, and ate in Madison be fore he has time to open his mouth. " THE BOSTON TEA PARTY.—This politi cal event which was the entering wedge of the drama of the revolution, is ever a sub• ject of deep interest. Mr. B. B. Thatcher the other evening, gave an interesting lec ture upon it at the Boston Lyceum, in which he disclosed many particulars hitherto un known. It appears that those revered pat riots John Hancock and Samuel Adams, were both among the number of disguised Indians, who, were present and assisted on the occasion.—Boston paper. VICISSITUDES OF F'onTITNE.--We notic ed under the obituary head, the other day, the death of "the Hon. Samuel Wright, formerly a member of the Legislature of this state." The ups and downs of this world have seldom been more strikingly ex emplified, than in the chequered life of Sam uel Wright. Thirty years ago, he was an opulent merchant, and an influential politi• cian in the county of Hekimer. .Ho was a member of the Legislature, at the time of the incorporation of the Merchants' Bank of this city. There were some noise in re gard to the manner in which that charter was obtained, and Mr. Wright's.narne was involved. About the year 1810, Mr. W. became entangled in his extensive pecunia- Iry affairs, and failed in business. For a few years afterwards, he kept a public house in the village of Herkimer, from which ho re- Imoved to the neighborhood of A lbany, where again he kept a public house. Leaving that establishment we lost sight of him fora good while, until five or six years since, we recog nized him among the sellers of vegetables in the Washington market. In this hum. Ile situation he continued 'until his recent decease. He was, we believe, an honest man. Certainly he was a man of strong intellect, and of inure than a common share of information. We never knew or suppos ed him to be guilty of bad habits in any res pect; and yet, when Fortune turned against him, be was doomed to struggle on, and struggle on, without a single turn of the wheel in his favor.— V. Y. paper. WIIF.ELINC, Nov. 11. Ibrinoi: ACROSS TILE Onto.—We under stand that books were opened in this town on Saturday last for the subscription of stock to erect n bridge across the Ohio river at this town, and that on yesterday the whole amount deemed necessary ($200,000) had been taken. It is said that arrangements will speedily he made to commence the work. We tender our congratulations to our towns men on this auspicious event. The books were opened under the laws ofthe legislature of Virginia and Ohio, pass ed about 10 years ago. Of the commission ers therein appointed, but six are still living, all of whom attended here on Saturday— three from each state. This is said to have been the minimum number required by law; consequently had one more been removed by death, the laws must have been re-enact ed. Whether charters so thvorable could now be obtained is do,ibtful. The Legislature of the State of GEORGIA assembled at Milledgeville on Monday, the 2d inst. R. M. Eenor.s was chosen Presi dent of the Senate, and Mr• DAY, (of Jones,) Speaker of the House of Representatives. The strength of parties (Union vs. State ft ights) is in the Senate 54 to 31, and in the House of Representatives 102 to 68. PHETTY WOMEN.-Of all other views a man may in time grow tired, but in the countenance of woman thorn is a variety which sets weariness at defiance. The di vine right of beauty, says Junius, is the only divihe right a man can acknowledge, and a pretty woman the only tyrant he is not au thorised to resist. The number of students at present at the University of Virginia, amounts to 237—a much larger number than at any previous time, Dormitories were erected for the ac commodation of only 220. The Charlotts vine Advocate thinks it would be wise in the Legislature to extend the buildings and es tablish more Piofessoiships, Military and Agricultural.—Richmond Compiler. The Synod of Kentucky, as its recent an nual meeting, was called upon to consider and act upon the case of Rev. Joseph Hu ber, pastor of the-church at Shelbyville, who was tried for having married the sister of his deceased wife. Their decision closes with the following words:— "The Synod cannot but regard such mar riages as displeasing in the sight of God, and, calculated to call down his punishments on the parties engaged in them. "The Snyod do therefore Resolve, That brother Huber be solemnly rebuked for the sin which he committed in marrying his de ceased wile's sister; and that our churches be solemnly warned against the sin of such marriage." Gov. Wolf has appointed John Stewart, Esq. to be Associate Judge for the county of Cumberland, in the place of the Hon. Isa iah Graham, deceased. John Craig, Esq. has been appointed Notary Public for the same county. The Hon. Elisha Whittlesey is spoken of in some of the Ohio papers as a candidate for Governor of that State. RAIL ROAD FROM WILLIAMBI'ORT TO CHAMBERSDURG.—We learn from the last Williamsport (Md.) Banner, that some en terprising citizens of that place have recent ly taken a stand in favor of constructing a rail road from that town to Chambersborg, in Pennsylvania. Means were about to be adopted to obtain the lands for the necessary surveys for the proposed work, and its final completion, through the public spirit of the citizens of this county and of Franklin coun ty, Pa. is looked to with some confidence. In reference to this "cross cut" rail road, the Banner well remarks, that "the city of Baltimore must look with interest to a mea sure, calculated to increase her trade and promote her prospi'rity."-- Torch Light. GEN. BERNARD.—An article which ap peared in yesterday's Gazette, relative to Gen. Bernard, has induced an intelligent French gentleman to mention,to us an anec dote which is authentic, and which shows an error in the statement there made. Gen. Bernard was not an exile in this country. Whilst Mr. Crawford was Minis ter to France, he became acquainted with the talents of Gen. Bernard, then in Paris, and our country being in want of an able, engineer, he took the General to. Court and applied to Louis XVIII, for a relinquish. ment of his services in order that he might be the A merican government. Louis repli ed that "such an officer ho could lend to a friendly foreign power like the United States, but he could not give him up." "Je puis pretel un tel rfficier aux Etats-Unis, mais non le leur donner." It was then on this condition that Gen. Bernard came over to this country and was employed by our goy. eminent. He never took the oath of alle giance, and of course only considered him self temporarily engaged for a ridiculer service.—Alexandria Gmette. "Bill Jones," said a bullying urchin to an other lad, "the next time I catch you alone I'll flog you Ike any thing." "Well," re plied Bill, "I aint often much alone, I com monly have my legs and fists with me." A rohustious countryman meeting a phy sician, ran to hide behind a wall; being ask• ed the cause, he replied:—"lt is so long since I have been sick, that I am ashamed to look a physician in the face." "0, papa!" said a little girl the other day, "why won't you buy me one of those High. land shawls?" "1 mean to buy one for a horse blanket," said he, "Well, I don't care" said the little girl, "the horse may wear it nights, hut I will have it to wear day times." 0 - 11 our Country friends wish to see "moNsTY:a" in the shape of a HOG, call at Col.

WILLIAM BAILEY. November 23,1835. 3t*-34 PROSPECTUS OF THE Congressional Globe. T IRE success of the experiment we have made to furnish a succinct history of the proceedings of Congress, from day to day, with sketches of the Debates, induces the undersign. ed to persevere in their plan to extend and per fect it. They have resolved that the Congres sional Globe shall not only embody the parlia mentary annals of the country, but shall also fur nish an Appendix. which will contain the finish ed speeches of the prominent speakers on the most important subjects written out by members themselves; from the notes and printed speeches of the reporters. The Congressional Globe, with an Index, will be published weekly, upon double royal paper, in octavo form as heretofore. at One Dollar for the Session. It may be subscribed for separate. iy. The Appendix of finished speeches will, al so, be published for One Dollar. It is probable that next session of Congress will continue nearly seen months; if so, the work will contain between four and five hundred pages, and will be the cheapest publication per- haps in the world. The next session of Congress will probably be the most eventful one which has occurred for many years, and will certainly be replete with interest, and its course will have great influence in fixing the destiny of the Republic for years to come. Immediately preceding, as it does. the next Presidential election, and containing the leadingviinds of all the contending parties in the country, deep and abiding interest will attend the debates. The whole drama will be faith. fully exhibited in the Congressional Globe and the Appendix. We have already provided for our reporting corps, eminent ability and skillin one branch of Congress, and we expect to obtain an adequate reinforcement of capable persons in the other by the time it meets, to fulfil our own wishes and the expectations of the members. No pains , or costs on our pert will be spared to accomplish it. As the work will be continued regularly, and be made permanent, aril hentic, and therefore high. ly useful, all s who take an interest in the politi. cal affrirs of the country will do well to begin their subscription with the next session.
