THE WIDOW OF 4 REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIER, AND THE STEP- MOTHER OF THE HERO OF FORT BROWN. The House resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole House, and took up the private calendar. The Cienrx read the bill for the relief of Mary Brown (widow of Jacob Brown, a revolutionary pensioner, and step-mother of Major Jaceb Brown, late of the army of the United States, who fell at Fort Brows,) granting tc hera pension at the rate of twenty dollars per moath, commencing on the firet day of January, 1847, and con: tinuing du: her natural life. Mr Grppincs moved that the bill be laid aside, to be reported to the House, with » recommendation that it do not pass. He considered that to pass it, it would be the commencement of anew system of pensions in this ent, te continue for an indefinite period of time If pensions were to be granted, it should be on general principles Mr. Kino, of Mareachuretts, who reported the bill, said that the President bad recommended that provision of those who fell in the should be made for the fsmili recent’ battles. Mrs. Brown is the widow of a revolu. Uonary soldier, and the step-mother of Msjor Brown, ‘who #0 gallantly fell in the defence of Fort Brown. She is now seventy four years of age. By the death of her son. she has been deprived of her only means of support Mr. Hasxet (who had a controversy with Pillow, and who was a colonel of Tennessee volunteers) raid that this case challenged the peouliar consideration of Jacob ry ia seventy-fourth year of berage. She cannot ax on the country; and I do not know that of all questions of this ‘character, there will presented to this Congress, for their action, one that will bs more worthy of attention. She was subsinted up to the death of her husband by « pension; er step-son, the first to fall in the gaged. I think there is ry of Mejor Brown which should Congress. This lady is the widow of the lat Brown. « soldier of the revolutionary army ; long be after this period she leaned for support on Mejor Brown, who was amo battles ia which we are now something in the bh: be cherished. | have reason to know he wae most me torious. He entered the army as a private soldier, and for his good conduct he was promoted from the ranks. He served with distinction on the northern frontier during the late war with Great Britain. Asa disbursing officer, he rendered faithful service, and gave ejurt account of the millions of dollars that passed through his hands. At the time General Taylor was straitened for provisions, and was obliged to break up his encampment and fall back on Point Isabel for sup- of all the gallant officers, he selected Major Brown for the defence before Matamoras. How well he sus- tained himself and upheld our fing, the country well knows,and history will not fail to cemmemorate In the blaze of glory which surrounds those who have since distinguished themsclves, and dezzles eur eyes, and challenges our admiration, he is almost forgotten. He ‘was the first to baptise the Rio Grande with the blood ot an American officer. He lived but long enough to hear the cannon on the field of Palo Alto and Resaca— to bebold the retreat of the broken armies of Arista and Ampudia. Look at the fact. Here is a widow (the con- ort of a revolutionary soldier) now on the verge of the grave, and the step mother of one of the best and most gallant of the army. She lost her pension, then the support of herson. Sho is entitled to the consideration | of Congress. Before this Congress adjourns, wo will be asked to make further provision for the widows and offi- cera of soldiers whs have fallen in the service. In this cess, | hope Congress will take occasion to show that when the claims of others are presented, the remark that republics are ungrateful,will not be buried back upon us Mr. Jonnson, of Arkal I knew Major Brown from boyhood. He possessed onfidence of every body.— His actions are bis eulogy. He wes « brave a gallant mea, and fought as aman should fight, and died asa sol dier should die. But his mother, if not provided for, must go to the poor house. Ought she, or not, to be re. duced to this extremity? We ought to pass the bill; ‘we ought to show that those who peril their lives should receive th» gratitude of the republic The condition of the step-mother ie inducement enough for me to ‘the bill. 4 me tat Mr. Hexiy—It may firmness to resist the eloquence of the gentleman from ‘Tennessee, (Mr. Haskell.) But we have nothing to do with these things. We stand here tolegislate on gencral Principles. Who does not know that we can bring for- ‘ward individual cases of thousands of widows of soldiers? If you desire to bestow pensions, do so on g-neral princi, ples. If you aliow her a pension, you must allow i toothers. I think this committee ought to hove the firmness to resist this kind of special legislation, tion, Mr. Cumaixs—I bave no doubt that this isa . rious olaim; but we ought to provide for this aad alealice ones under general law. The time of the House should Bot be consumed by special legislation ; therefore I shall ill now presented. There is time vote against the enough to prepare a law embracing all similar cases, aie en ap onace.? ir. Sawrea—It occura to me that an eulogy on the services of the gallant Brown comes with « tad erece from that (the whig) quarter of the House. [Laughter.] You may give this widows hundred thousand dollars, and it will not requite and pay her for the vote of condemnation passed on her son in this House a few days ago; and the same thing applies to thousands of others astobim The ink is scarcely dry which said that the war is unjust, and was brought on by the Pre- sident in violation of the constitution. Does it come with goed grace from those who eulogise the soldiers who fought #0 valiantly in a bad cause, in an unholy war? Does it come with a good gracef.om the whigs to eulogise those who fought, I ask? Were they forced into the war? No; they were volunteers. They went to the battle field of their own accord. And now gen- tlemen on the other side say that the step-mother ought ‘to have « pension in consideration of the services of her son. It comes with a bad grace, | say. (Laughter )— | and [ask gentlemen, when they | come to pass the bill,to remember these facts. Their | great chieftain goes against the war, and would refare | These are my view: money to carry iton. But they are exceedingly patr: otic ail at once. They Lestow eulogy in direct opposi- tion to their votes, that the war is unjust, and was un. | constitutionally begun by the President. Mr. Rockweit, of Massachusett have a pension for her few remaining days. Mr. Poutock—If I thought >; should assist in establishing widow of @ revolutionary soldier. Mr. Lawaener—I am opposed to the passage of the Dili, on the ground that it provides for special legisla- tion. I will, however, favor « bill based on general prin- ciples. Mr. Ficxiix took @ similar position, and offered an amendment.

Mr. Jones (of Tennessee) was not for selecting those who wore epaulettes, to the exclusion of the un-named Private. Mr. Tomrxins would vote for the bill as it came from the committee. He expressed the hope that others would do likewise. Mr. Tunner said he would vote against the bill. The Committee rose, and the Cmarmman reported a private bill, whioh had been ordered to be presented to the House. It was not, however, acted on. ‘The above pres-nts a deguerreotype of what took The best act, in the humble opinion of rour reporter, was the adjournment of the House until londay next. Battrmoag, Jan. 15, 1843. Unseasonable Weather—Steamer Ashore—Wash- ington University, $c. We have had two successive days of moist and rainy weather, and the prospect of a change for the better is poor, indeed. The steamer Columbus is still on shore below Annapolis, where she was thrown on Wednes- day night, by the ice. Two steamers went down | yesterday to get her off, but found it impossible, on account of the floating ice. She will proba- bly be got off to-day. The Rev. Dr. Roberts, of Baltimore, has been elected to the chair of obstetrics, in our Wash- ington University, and has accepted the appoint- ment.

Paivapevpuia, Jan. 15, 1848. Fire Alarms—Dinner Declined—The Saturday Courier Case—Board of Brokers. Three alarms of fires occurred during last night ; but I have not heard that much damage has resulted. Captain Small, who recently returned from Mexico, and is now occupying his seat in the State Senate, has been offered the compliment of a public dinner by his friends; but I think he has shown his good sense by declining, qs this dinner-giving has now become so commen that it is questionable whether the recipients are not more honored in the breach than the observance. Judge King, in the Common Pleas, this morn- ing, pronounced the decision of the whole bench in the Saturday Courier case, by affirming the decree ot Judge Parsons, in ordering the wale of the paper and subscription list. The question will be taken to the Supreme Court. The Board of Brokers met to-day, but on the announcement of the death of Alexander Lard- ner, Esq., adjourned without transacting any business. “ALBA » Jan. 13, 1848. Banking Investigations— Resignation of John A. Collier. The resolutions offered inthe Assembly yester- day, calling upon the Comptroller for copies of the correspondence between his agents and the suspected banks, and for copies of the testimony taken upon the examinations of persons purporting to be officers of these banks, were voted down to- day ; they were laid upon the table of the House, on motion of Mr. Nathaniel Coe, of Livingston. Mr. Coe observed in support of his motion that there was a committee now engaged in exa- mining the seeurities of these banks, as well as their general condition. I understand that the Comptroller objected to the passage of the resolutions, upon the ground that they made eertain requisitions upon him which it would take several months to comply with ; he thinks that the resolutions are not spe- cific enough, and that they require a too volumi- nous reply; probably new resolutions will be in- troduced into the Assembly, to which it may be more convenient for the Comptroller to reply. John A. Collier resigned his office of Commis- sioner of the Code to-day. The following is a copy of the letter of resignation which he sent to the Legislature :— Atsany, Jan. 12, 1848, To the Hon, THR SenatR— The experience of a few months in the discharge of my duties as one of the Commissioners of the Code, has eatiefivd me, that it did not underrate the labor and maznitude of the work, I have, perhaps, ove own powers of endurance.

Scarcely hoping, even at the hazard of such ® sacrifice, to sacisfy the reasunable expectations, and much less the “ progressive” impatience of the public, of which we have siready been favored with an early in- stalment; and with increasing doubts and misgivings as to the ultimate success of the undertakiog, and espe- cially if done in the hurried mavner which the manifes- tations of such impatience are calculated to produce, | have, upon due consideration of the rurject, concluded to resign my place upon this commission; and my re- sigoation of the office is, therefore, respectfully ten- dered to pres bi , With great respect, your obd’t serv't.

There transcribe it at length :— “Mr Shaw, from the minority of the Committee on Banks and the Currency, made the following report Strike out after the word whereas” in the preamble, and insert the following: Our share of the specie of the world is thirty-two mil- Hons of dollars, which 1s twenty-two and a half milli of dollars more than the largest bank circulation we ever had in Ohio, and which is thirty anda half millions of doliars more than the least bank circulation we ever had in Ohio since 1835, and which is twenty-three and three quarter millions of dollars more than the wh culation in Ohio at this time. And wher of the specie ofthe world gives sixteen dollars to each son of our present population, which is eight anda alf dollars more to each person than the largest bank circulation we ever had in Ohio; and which is fifteen dollars more to each person than the least bank circula- tion we ever had in Ohio; and which is eleven and three- quarter dollars more to each person than the whole bank circulation in Ohio at this time; and which is twelve and a half dollars more to each pergoo, than the average bank circulation from 1835 to 1847. And whereas, our share of the aggregate coinage of the United States Mint and branches at thistime, is about thirteen mil- lions of dollars more than the largest Dank circulation wo ever had in Ohio; and which is eleven and » half millions of dollars more than the least bank circulation we ever had in Ohio; and which js four and three quat- ter millions of dollars wore than the whole bank cirou- lation at this time, And whereas, our share of the ag- gate coinage at this time, would give six and « half Soitere to each person in Ohio, which is two and three quarter dollars toeach pertoa more than our present bank circulation, and which is three dollars mors to the average bank ciroulation in Ohio Ohio, for a series of years past, has not been less than ‘twenty miilions of dollars a year, showing that we have the means within our reach; and under our control, to farnish & much a muck largeramount of the constitu- tional currency of gold aud #ilverthen was ever farnish- ed us by all the ‘ks in Obio—this is @ currency which is intrinsic, substantial, safe, sound, and pever- failing—but which is now supplanted i emission paper money, to the great injury of the whole communt- ty. Therefore- Resolved, by the General Amembie of the State of Ohio, That emissions of paper money shut cut a metalic currency, which otherwise would flow in upon us as the tide, for our immense surplus produce, furnishing the farmer and the laboring man with an abundant supply for a circulating medium, which would thi pay their texesin and silver, and the Stat pa ite foreign debt as it becomes duc; thet the bauking rys- tem, when producing itsgreatest;prosperity, and farnish- ing its largest circulation, is preventing a greater ands more permanent prosperity, and shutting out larger and contioval circulation; and that the resources of Ohio are ample to furnish an abundant supply of the constitutional currency, tor all the business ope; of the State; and that it would be wise, politic scourge of the nineteenth century.” Mr. Shaw having led off by a two days speech in behalf of the (so called) ‘* hard ogee doctrine, the subject became one of general de- bate. Pending this, the rupture in the eastern banks came ‘ booming” over the “ telegraphic wires” atthe rate of two or three a day, for some days, and added much to the excitement of the discussion; and, tn truth, the whigs became in some measure * panic-struck.”” The “en- dorsing”’ resolutions came up ia the Senate, the House having previously rejected Mr. Shaw’s proposition and adopted the original resolution, by astrict party vote. The democratstook advan- tage of the continued rumors of bank failures in the east, ia support of their arguments against the papermoney system. Mr. Oids (dem.) moved to amend the resolutions by striking out ali after the word “* whereas,” and insert the following in lieu thereof :— « By the magoetic telegraph we have received intelli- gence that the Delaware Bridge Company has failed hur- Ing unredeemed in the hands of our citizens, many thousands of its worthless currency,’’ and Whereas, The Legislature of Ohio has undertaken to furnish our citizens with a safe, uoiformand converti- ble ourreacy; and itis the legitimate business of the Legisiature to protect our citizene against the frauds eat extortions of banks—Therefore, Resolved, That the standing committee on banke and the currency be instructed to enquire and report to the Seuace, whether, at any time there bas been any busi- ness connection between said Delaware Bridge Company and apy bankirg institutions in this State, by which the billsor notes of said Delaware Bridge Company heave obtained credit or circulatio: ; and whether such bs ing inatitution of this State has been in part or in the whole, owner of said Delaware Bridge Company; and tion or morally whether, by reason of such business co: ownershi} snking institution has beco: or legally, uod to redeem the circulation of said Dela ware Bridge Company Resolved, further, That ssid committee be redjuested thie Senate, the connection a to investigate, and report cf the Mechanios’ Savings Institute of this city Columbus insuraace Company, with snid Del Bridge Company; whether at any time, said Mechi imatitate or said Insurance ¢ owner in whole or in part, of a8 Jostitute or Insurance Company have been ‘umental in bills of suid Delaware Bridge Company.and whether said Savings Institution or Insurance Company are morally or legally bound to redeem the circulation of said Delaware Bridge Company Resolved, further, That said committee be requested to procure ‘the assistance of the Attorney General of thia State in their investigation, and to report further, whother the connection of any uch banking institution of this State, or the Savings institute of thie city, cr the Columbus Insurance Company, with said Delaware Bridge Company has bven such as to require legisiative interference, or to make 4 forieiture of the charter of either of saidinstitutions, I have deemed these extracts worthy a space ern commercial men may see the tendency here of things in which they are highly interested ; and capitalists and stock-brokers may see the pro- bable doom of the paper currency system in Onio. directly connected with some of the late explod- ed banks in the east, and the showing that in- stead of the Ono banks furnishing the people of Ohio with a ‘* safe and uniform” currency, the people of Ohio will in all probability be the greatest losers on the paper of the exploded whig Senators themselves,that these unqualified endorsing resolutions of the Onio banks, are to the 10th day of January. ject as are the people of Ohio, at this moment, on the bankiag question.

The whigs, however, fancying (erroneously, as I think,) that their partiality to banks has placed them in the ascendency, wished to keep the sub- Lject before the people; and, to that end, intro- duced the ‘-bank endorsing” resolutions, (of which I spoke heretofore,) déclaring that it would be unjust, unwise, and impolitie, to adopt any legislative provision repealing the charter of these institutions, inasmuch as experience has fully tested and clearly demonstrated the ubility of the banking institutions of this State to provide the people with asafe, uniform and convenient currency, at all times convertible in- ilver. ‘The committee on banks and currency, having reported back these resolutions and recommended théir adoption, the demecrats were compelled to show their hand; and accord- fa'pole, Norfolk. alti debwsenk Londen: Alina tree more, Johuson & Lowden; Iphia, J Hand; Lady Clinton, Cramner, do; terson, Boston.
