Anattems( Was made in we Legic ature of Mis siseippi during its late session, to nominate Mr. Van Buren for President, and Mr. Polk, of Tennessee, for Vice President. It failed in consequence of the predilection of @ majority for Colonel Johason. A state convention was then called upon three days notice, and Mr. Van Buren received the nomination. A motion was then made to nominate Mr. Polk fut Vice President, which failed, and Colonel Johnson Teceivedthe nomination. ‘The friends of Mr. Polk, left the convention ia disgust, and the whole broke up in coafusioa. This movement was prompted from this city, in order to head off old Tecumseh, but he knows his position and strength too well, to play second fiddle to any body. r Mr. Van Buren’s intended route to the Hermi- tage, is said to be changed. He does not intend to visit this city er Richmond, but goes direct to ‘Charleston, and from thence makes his pilgrimage to Tennessee. House of Representatives—Congressional ‘Temperance—The Banks ef the District— Retrenchment and Reform—The Civil and Diplomatic Appropriation Bill—Arrival of Distinguished Writers---Mra. Stephen's New Nov:l--Theatricals. The House of Representatives this morning granted toa recently formed Congressional Tem- perance Society—consisting of members of Con- gress as its title imports—the use of the House on the evening of the 25th instant, but for what pur- pose was not stated. The cause ef Temperauce has now amongst its advocates the Statesmen of ‘the land who are exemplars for theirconstituencies. Itisno longer comfined to the degraded though re- claimed druvkard, or the weak-minded fanatic ; high station and commanding talent lend it their sanction and their influence, and its membership threatens to become the test of respectability. The House was next engaged in an ineffectual ef- fort, originated by General Ward of New York, to reverse the decision of yesterday on the third read- ing of the bill to suspend the operation of a portion of the Charter of the Banks of the District of Colum- bia, which prohibits the re-issue of the notes of the non-specie paying banks. General Ward’s motion to reconsider the vote, was not successful. For ‘the residue of the morning hour the House continued the discussion, commenced a day or two since, on the report of the committee on retienchment The report concludes with a series of resolutions, the first of which is the subject matter of the debate so far as it has proceeded. It is as follows : Resolved, That the Clerk of the House be, and he is dmereby authorised to continue in his office the services of the three assistant clerks authorised by resolutions adopted by the House on theéth day of March, 1926, and the 11th dey of October, 1337, in ition to the six tantant clerks now authorised by law. at the annui lary now receited by them, respectively ; and that hi employ no greater number of assistant clerks at any time in his office, unless permitted so to do by an order or re solution of the House. A reduction of the number of clerks is contem- plated, and this is considered an affectation of regard for the public purse on the ore hand, while on the other it is deemed but the commencement of a searching reform and retrenchment, which are to extend themselves threugh every department of the government. The remainder of the day was con- sumed in committee of the whole on the Civil and Diplomatic appropriation bill. The second section was under discussion when the Houge was last in committee on this bill, and it was now the pending question ; but for the purpose of opening one of those worthless and interminable debates for which the Heuse issomewhat norious, Mr. McKeon mov- ed to strike out the enacting clause with the avowed ~object to enable him to go into the wide field which se multifarious a measure opens for discussion. The Cuaramax decided that such a motion at atime ‘when the committee was considering the measure by sections, was not in order, and on an appeal the House eustuined the decision, and thereby avoided -& consumption of time which would have cost the country more than would have been counterbalan- ced by any reductions that might be made in the ap- Propriation. This appeal disposed of, the Mouse edjourned. Amongst the arrivals at Brown’s Hotel this even- ing, are Mrs. Stephens, the distitiguished authoress, Mr. N.P. Willis, Mr. T. W.

Blopena is reported to ila ile in hand, into which she desires to incorporate scenes ineidents drawn from the society of Washing- ton. She has a vivid imagination, and with such a task it is an essential, if she designs not to give a mere detail of the cold selfishness which is felt in a society composed of professional politicians and the adjuncts of high public office, or the frivolities which mark the anal coteries. with which this place al ds.

He was called out at the close of his last performance to receive the plaudits of the audienee, whose appetite for his rich and racy per- formances grew with what it fed on. He is parted with with regret; but his seuthern engagements prevent a longer stay. Miss Reynolds remains for several weeks yet; she is deservedly an established favorite.

Previously | Crosby street to his late dismiesal as cashier of the bank, it was ea ‘eral physicians. ascertained that he had, as the signing officer of the Relief issues of that institution, put out some thou- sands of dollars on his own account. The Penn Township Bank, as one of the losers by this fraudu- lent issue, and from other transactions, commenced asuit of some sort against him, and it was while in the custody of the Sheriff's officer, that the rash and melancholy act was committed. Boyd was rather a dashing blade, about 35 years of age, and very reapectably connected. He has a wife and family in the interior of the State. Isit not a little remark- able fact, thatse many of our bank officers when thus traced to their end are found to be connected with lewd women. He was originally theagent of the Bank—then its cashier, but at the present time is not, I believe, connected with it. His wife wasa niece of Jonathan Knight, late President of the Bank of Northern Liberties. The claim of the Penn Township Bank against him was $30,000. During the mee lingered, from ix o’clock until ten, he was perfectly sensible, said nothing, however, of his circumstances or condition, andto the enquiry how he held the pistol he replied: “I don’t know, don’t trouble me.” The deceased is supposed to be about 35 years of age, and has a wife and two children living in Covington, Tioga county in this State. The pistol with which he done the deed, was found by his tide, and the fellow to it was ta- ken out ofhis pocket, loaded. It is evident, there- fore, that he hadthemwith him all the day and night while in custody of the officers, as no opportu- ni y was fforded to him to obtain them ary where or fromany p rson, avd that it was his intention to commit the rash act rather than go to prizon.

It clears away the fogs that have surrousded the State finances, and meeta the true state of aifaira with boldaess and decision. From it we gather the following items of immeciate claims upon the State: We are informed by Capt Cormier, of the brig Apa- lachicola, arrived yesterday from ‘Tampico, that en had a conversation witha gentleman from the in- terior, who had witnessed the arrival in Mexico, of the second detachment of prisoners,'from the Santa Fe expeditian.

For the temporary loans due March Ist, the Csmmissioners of the Canal Fund have been obliged, “cup in hand,” to solicit an ex- tension, which is provubly granted, becau_ there is no alternative. The last of these items, amounting te $632,093, must bo paid, and the means were an alleged surplus of canal reveaues,on the 30:h September $605,751. Not one dollar of i*, however, remains. From October 1, to the close of navigation, $873,508 were re ceived, of which $50,000 only isevailable. Near $690, 000 then is to be raised, and to borrow is impossible.

Mr. Cowdrey, on the part of the de- fendants, maintained that to the severity of the storm, and not any defect in the sewer, was the dif- ficulty to be attributed. The rain came down in torrents and li ee inundated that part of the ci- to, rushing tothe calvertin euch quantitics as in fact todamitself up.

The resolutions of Mr. Clay, introduced into the 8e- nate, in relation to a revision of the tariff, so a8 to mect the wants of the Government, are just and sound, as far as relates to the reduction of expenditure, and the ne- cessary increase of the tariff. The principles laid down will find a response in the breast of every man in the community. A permanent deficiency in the revenne can and should be supplied in no other way but by an in- crease of duties. Treasury notes are undoubtedly|the best, cheapest and lesst burdeasoms manner of supplying a temporary deficiency ;ut one that (hreatens tajbe per nent must be promptly met as such. The first step to be ta. ken. however,isto ascertuin the extent of the deficiency, and then to take measures to make it as small as posii- ble. The first step is to husbon! and make the most of the revenues already are then to curtail expen diture as much as possiblc,and finally to levy new dutie, tomeet the deficiency thus arrived et. The dominant party came into power amidst a great clamor against a debt supposed to exist, The first thing they did wasto callan extra session, spend $6,000,000 additional, give away one branch of revenue, thatof the public Janda, andincrease the debt against which they clamored | $10,000,020. The policy of increasing the debt has been thwarted only by the utter inability to borrew, andas a last and only resource, they are thrown bock upon the tariff. Mr. Clay has resorted to it for two reasons—first, thot it is impossible to borrow ; and second, because it favors the oppressive high tariff views of the aristocra- tic party. The fifth and sixth resolutions introduced by Mr, Clay, clearly show this origin for the chapge in po- Civeutt Court, Before Judge Kexr. 17.—Jerome B. Kinz vs. Luke Fuy.—This ‘was an action for assault and buttery.

Ifthe object is really to produce “ rigid economy,” in crder to make the burdens as light a» possiblein'a pe- riod of“ general embarrassment and pecuniary distress.” Why persist in squandering the $3,000,000 annwally re- ceived from the proceeds of the public lands? Simply because by so doing, the import duties will be increas edto the same extent, thereby acting as a bounty to the manufacturing classes, and an oppression to the consu- mers of goods. The plea of relieving the States by the distribution, is absurd. The following table, is from the reply of the Secretary of the Treasury, in answer to 8 call from the Senate, showing how much each state would have reeeived, hud the law been in operation in 1841. Sari M ov wactt Starve unper tHe Distanvtion Act: 25,586 Mi + 20,856 Ohio 207 87 From this, the extent of the ‘ relief” is seen at a glance. Pennsylvania is deficient $3,000,000, and would . Indiana is deficient $700,000, and is to get $35,000. The argument that it is areliefto the States fallnto the ground. ‘The fast 1s, that it is a relicf to the manufacturers, by affording a pretext for taxing the ma- ny for the benefit of the few. There are in the United States 5,000,000 of active people,employed in the different pursuite, according to the late census. Of these, 10 per cent, or $500,000 are employed in manufactures of all descriptions. These’people want the remaining 4,500,- 000 to pay additional taxes for their exclusive benefit, or, in other words, they wish to compel them to buy of the manufacturersjin thiseountry. By turning to the census table, we get t! ‘alue of all the goods manufactured in the United States. To them we have added the’ value of the same articles imported in the same year, forming the following table :— Manvracturss or tix Usitxn States axp IMrorts or Maneractunkp Goons, in 1839-40.

Now one of two things is certain, either increased duties do or do not raise the prices of goods’to theconsumer. If they do beyond that, which is abso- lutely necessary to the support of the government, they are manifestly unjust, inasmuch as they tax the many for the benefit of thef-w. Ifthey do not raise the prices, asisalledged by the advocates of a tariff, but that the revenue is paid by the foreign manufacturers. Tho howe manufacturers can derive no benefitwhatever from atariff; and it must bo the same to him whether there is aduty or not. The fact is, however, and admits of no cavil, that prices are increased by the duties. If,on the above imports of $51,000,000, a revenue§ of $3,005,000 is to be raised to refund the proceeds of the public lands voted away, it will amount to an ad valorem duty of 6 percent, which will not only raise the price of the im ported goodsto the same extent, but those of the home manufacture also. The consumers will.then have te pay an additional 6 per cent dn $446,000,000 of goods an- aually, which amounts to $13,600,000, of which the go- vernment will get $3,000,000, and the manufacturers $10,600,000.
