Twice ! am sure will be. The only symptom that be is nU entirely insane, is the fact that he had trood sanse enough to compliment the speech of vourable and attentive Representative, upon this question. Tl.e tliird and List part of the trio was the reconimor.il ition of the Navy Appropriation Bill: Lane of Indiana in his zeal for the passage of the Appropriation Bill, having asked the previous question which, mirabilc iHctiC was lost. The consequence was the postponement of the question fur one day. Thompson of South Carolina took the floor upon the question of Appropriations, lie is a bold, independent, able nullifier one who goes as we of Xcw England say. pretty much on their own hook, a very good fellow for the lead, but an ujlv one to follow, lie gave us a very clever history of Navy Appropriations of some historical events abroad and some at heme connected with the question. lie hinted at the lion President and the fox who was his nomiire and very properly wished the final settlement of the question now in reference to the objects of these appropriations, that the sins of the hire might not be charged upon the king or those of the king upon the hire to the throne. At five o'clock, wise of Virginia moved an adjournment. Thompson as yet not having finished his speech. Among the incidental business of the day was a report from the judiciary Committee, i;i reference to your Boundary Line. It came from a party Committee seemingly was accompanied by a hundred weight of accompanying papers was read twice by title only and then ordered to be printed. Prepare, therefore, soon for an interesting war upon tills important question. Washington, March Hd, IS3G. Pevuce of II. I. Who is Dutec J. Pearce, the successor of Tristam Hurgess? If you were to ask such a question I could not answer you, further than to say, that this "great little man" who is fast gaining icputation, as ;i brawler, is neither brave nor wise, a man wlio obtained his seat by fraud and the aid of the hurra boys and who since he has been here, has kept his seat only by rolling scandal as ;i sweet morsel under his tongue, which upon his favorite topic "oulvenoms all the worms of the Nile."

The Rhode Island man he said expressed some opposition to the bill because it did'nt civc any relief to the suffering women as well as the su'derin"- men. iNow Mr. Speaker, continued Lane, I am willing to do as much for the relief of old maids, widows, and orphans as the member from Rhode Island, and I defy him to go further.

But. the members, nor audience would cease their laugh, till they had become satiated with laughter. Lane, who continued in a like strain of remarks, soon moved the previous Question, having also done (he same thing upon the preceding day. The remainder of the farce has already been told. Thursday Evening. For a wonder, we have had a dull day and a sober day in the Senate and still more dull & sober one in the House. Two hours were spent in doing nothing, or next to nothing worth mentioning. I am not sorry for this "piping time of peace' coming to us in the midst of noise and confusion, as a calm succeeding a storm. For a month past both Houses have been intensely interesting to all persons and all parties. From all I can see and learn, it is destined to be still more interesting for a month to come and probably still more so to the close of the session. As yet, I am puzzled to answer the question so often propounded abroad during the present session. What has Con gress done during the three months which will have closed long before this letter reaches you. I know not that they have done any thing, save passing a a few unimportant Bills. But I do know that more important business remains to be done than will be accomplished unless more importance is given to action than words. An attempt was made this morning or rather afternoon, (with us every thing in Congress is morning, though the session docs not commence until 12 o'clock) to introduce again for consideration the Bill for the Relief of the New York Sufferers. The attempt proved unsuccessful by a single vole only. Thompson, of South Carolina then finished his speech on the Navy Appropriation Bill, entering somewhat more at length into the importance of the subject. He manifested, though a nullifier, a proper respect for the Union, and great patriotism. Occasionally sectional jealousies found their way into his remarks, while at the same time, they were probably unintentionally such. Take the following fot an example: The South, he said, was, in wealth, the deep, broad and mighty well of the nation ihe north was on ly the receiving reservoir, while Congress was the machine, and means of emptying the wealth of the nation, from the wells of the South into the Northern reservoir lie complimented Mr. Calhoun for the part he had taken in support of the Navy De partment, saying very truly, that he was not the man to "Crook the pregnant hinges of the knee, Where thrift may follow fawning." Mr. Thompson is a most amiable as well as a bold and independent man. In his manner he is respectful and courteous. I lis speeches arc good, and so far as I may juJge of him, as a public man ; he is a worthy son of South Carolina. Mr. Lvans of Maine, has the floor when the question shall again come before the House. SEXATK Still more Jbo'ition.

Wise was several limes interrupted by the Speaker and forbidden to proecd this, too. occasionally when he was not out of order. Upon one occasion he had been told to go on by the House. The Speaker, nevertheless, was inclined to stop him upon this and several other occasions, till Wise was compelled to take his seat, which he did in yreat anger and indignation towards the the Speaker who had tyranized over him. This was the adjournment of the House, and as soon as the House had adjourned, Wise who had no power to show his resentment while they were in session, was resolved to taue another occasion to do so.

Thisbodv convened at Indianapolis on last Monday week, but having received no papers from Indianapolis for about a month, (either curself, or subscribers to the Indianapolis papers,) we can give nothing of their proceedings, further than we learn bv a letter from a distinguished citizen of Indianapolis to a ireritlemen of this place. The Board have instructed the Fund Commissioners to leave immediately for the eastern cities to negotiate a loan. They have also ordered that the Whitewater Canal he permanently located immediately, and the part from Brookville to Lawrenceburgh to be put out on contract for construction as soon as the perliminary arrangements can be made, which will be some time the ensuinrr summer. This news is cheering to our prospects of a speedy completion of this grand enterprise. The Board had the law of Ohio, granting Indi ana right of way for the W. W. Canal before them and are of the opinion that its provisions can easily be complied with, and are to make arrangements ac cordingly. New Post Office. We are informed by Geo. W. Shane, Esq. that the Post Offiee Department has discontinued the Post Office in KIso Town ship Dearborn Co. and established another in Logan Township, in the same County, and appointed Mr. Shane, Post Master. The Lawrenceburgh and Brookville mail route is to pass this Office. The Weather. On Saturday morning last, vMnrch 12th) was the coldest we have ever exne. v. ... rienced so far advanced in the Spring. The mercury stood at 12 deg. below zero, only 2 decrees warmer, tiian the contest day the past winter. It is stated in the Richmond (Indiana) Palladium, that the thermometer, on that morning was as low as IT below, which is stated by that paper to be colder than ever was known in that place before. Hon. John Tvlkh, U. S. Senator from Virginia has resigned his seat in consequence of the instructions of the Virginia Legislature. Mr. Leigh, the other Senator from that State will retain his seat. The Hon. Wm. C. Rives has boon elected by both Houses of the Virginia Legislature to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Mr. Tyler. It will be recollected Mr. Rives resigned his seat in the Senate of the V. S., not long since, for the same causs that has leu Mr. Tyler to vacate his incebility, without a violation of what he considers right, to obey the instruction of the Legislature of his State. So much for a perversion of the right of instruction. The Senate, which was intended to be as far removed, as possible from the influence of every whim and caprice of a misguided populace, is becoming a perfect munierv. Suicide Mr. John V.

ADVALORF.M ASSESSMENT OF 1525. It will be seen by the following article from the Indiana Palladium, that our old preceptor, has read along lesson to us, which perhaps, will be of some benefit to us in afterlife, if we improve it It will learn us to put no confidence in even the acts of men who are not only sworn to a faithful and correct performance of their official duty, but who give bond for such performance. From this lesson we shall learn to view every thing with a scrutinizingeye, no matter how high the official authority, or how careful the law may be upon the subject to guard every poh.t.

But he having been further initiated into the ignurance and m alfi ascnecs ofpubhcorlices, examined the document with a critical eye, and the reader will see below the result of this examination. Since ..... l .i i . ...i i i ti ucieau iii-j .iruciu which loiiows, we have examined the report, and we agree perfectly with the Kditor that it manifests more error and carclcsnesx than any otlicial document which ever come under our observation. V e have heretofore remarked that this county was grossly assesscdlast year under the advalorem law, but we were of the opinion, that other counties selected men qualified lor assessors, and not those would who do it the cheapest. We would earnestly recommend to our present assessors a careful perusal of the following. Auditor s Rejiort. -The F.ditorof the American, in republishing the report of ths Auditor, si, .m inor the amount of taxable property in the state, under the Ad Valorem Law of last "session says, that contains much valuable s'aist.cal information. ov, it is said that doctors differ in opinion, and so do editors. We have also looked into that report more than once, and are free to say that we have not been able to discover in it a solitary trait that would recommend it to the public as a valuable statistical document. Indeed we do not know that we have ever seen a document, purport in to five statistical information, so full of palpable inaccuracies so replete with errors from the beginning to the end. And regarding it in this light, we have thought it unnecessary to give it aidace in our columns. e have not the cata bv which to show the gross inaccuracies of this document, taken in the detail, but many of them are so plain, that he wno runs may read them. e will give a few examples, which may Ferve as an index to the whole. In the first place there are nine counties that have made no return at all. In the returns for the county of Bartholomew, there is a delicit in the amount of land of L'O.OIH) acres. In the returns for Clark there is an excess of ;":!), 000 acres. In the county of Decatur there is a deficit of about ."0,000. In the counties of Harrison and Hendricks a delicit of about 'J.",0ti0 each. In the counties of Orange and Putnan there is a delicit of about l.",0rO each. In the counties of .Switzerland and Washington a deficit of 10,000 each, and in nearly all theother counties there are deficits varying from one to ten thousand acres. .So much for the quantity, and nowlet us turn our eyes to the average value of the land thus returned- and on this point wo will put only one or two cases. In the county of Clark the average value is a little over one dollar per acre (less than Congress price.) In the county of Dearborn, one of the oldest and richest counties in the state, the average value of the land is about ,7.1, while in the county of Grant, a new county "in the north, which only returns about it.OOO acres of taxable land, the average value is over 10 an acre. But shall it be said that the other items in the report are not obnoxious to the same criticism that so justly applies to the land returns. We have not the means of proving the fact, but will venture to presume that they are even more so. It has al ready been shown in our last, that in the returns of one single county there was an error of more than three million of dollars in the amount of money returned at interest; it is therefore unnecessary to traverse that point again. Let us compare the rei lUr , ' V"'"""1 an" 'TanKim counties as to the i number of horses anrl their aiTirroimtn i.,i0 ! see w hat will be the result. Te n,.,nh,r r i ' . ! returned in Dearborn is .'',064, ar'rorate value 511,7l:?, in Franklin the number returned is 2,073, and the aggregate value is 10(',!I77 Showing the average value of horses in Dearborn at about three dollars .' .' while the average value of horses in Franklin is about forty dollars. Again in the county of Huntington there are h'l horses returned, bearing an average value of 51 dollars, while in the county of Grant there are J112 horses, at an average value of $1( S0 it seems that in the litI tie county of Grant, where the land rates higher than in any other county in the state, horses are of the least value (with the exception of old Dearborn.) The value of Law Libraries in Dearborn is 515!! Oh tell it not in Gath ! Thus wc might go on and enumerate the gross and palpable absur dities with winch tins document abounds, but we desist. W e have only aimed to give a side view of the picture a short epitome of this valuable statistical state paper which has cost the people ironi iu, to '.evm aonars. i.od save the mark!
