All of them were the result of the action of the House growing out of the presentation of the memorial from the town of Haverhill, as presented by Mr. Adams. One of these memorials comes from the town of Lynn, and

is numerously signed. Another is from the

State of Pennsylvania. Mr. Adams, I believe, has all of them in his possession, or copies of all of them. What his intentions may be in regard to them, I do not know, but it is a good sign that no action has been had upon them, and none asked.

New York, Feb. 14, 1842. We are all alive with excitement here. Our guest, Dickens, the veritable "Boz," arrived here on Saturday, and took rooms at the Carlton House. He has kept very close yesterda'

TARIFF FOR REVENUE. The following are the main resolutions offered to the senate on Tuesday Feb. 15. by Mr. Clay, in view of a modification of the tariff: 1. Resolved, That it is the duty of the General Government, for conducting its administration, to provide an adequate revenue within the year to meet the current expenses of the year; and that any expedient, either by loan or treasury notes, to supply in time of peace, a deficiency of revenue, especially during succes- - sive years, is unwise, and must lead to percicions consequences. 2. Retolred, Tint such an adequate revenue

cannot be obtained by duties on foreign imports without adopting a higher rate than twenty per cent, as provided for in the compromise act.

which at the time of its passage, was supposed

and assumed as a rate that would supply a suf

ficient revenue for an economical administra tion of the eovernmcnt.

Resolced, therefore. That the rate of duties

on foreign imports ought to be augmented be

yonnd the rate of 20 per cent; so as to produce a nett re venueof 26.000000: twentvtwo forthe'

ordinary expenses of government; two for the

ning will be the great thing. Tickets eight dollars, and scarce enough at that. Jam"s Gordon Bennett, Editor of the Herald, was to-day brought up for sentence, having Ven convicted af two gross libels on the Court of General Sessions of this city. The trial had '-een slurred ever as much as possible, but a com iction could not lie avoided. Judge Kent was very properly strenuous for sentencing the culprit to a job at stone-cutting on Blackwell's Tsland, but he was over-ruled by two Locofoeo Aldermen on the bench with him, and the libel--rlet off with two fines of $250 and $100 in all S553! Do you have any justice of that quality in the West? John C. Colt was also brought up to-day for .sentence, but his couusel applied for and obtained a further stay of six days, in order that they may complete their exceptions to the old and reasons for a new trial. I do not think he

can get one.

Our 22 chartered Banks exhibit an aggre

gate of loans of S24.000.000; specie S4.000.000; circulation, $4,750,000; deposites, $10,40lM10, on the 1st of January last. This is a slight re

duction all round since the year before, but

they are quite as strong as then. We have but four substantial "Free" Banks, whose loans were $4,200,030; specie, $500,000; circulation, $000,000; deposites, $1,900,003, at the same time also a reduction all round. We have

Clinton Bank of Columbus. The Banks of

Mt. Pleasant, Western Reserve and Geauga were not represented; but they pay specie.

W e learn that the Banks have agreed to com

mence specie payments on the 4th of March

following. It is expected that much trouble

will be caused in stopping their discounts and

making collections preparatory to winding rm

and collecting specie to redeem their issuesjbut as the Legislature have determined that the

public interest require this course, a fair trial

will be made. The Banks represented had at

their last report 82,425.835 of circulation, an

$821,412 of specie. Of this circulation, it will lie remembered that a large sum must have

been lost. The Banks held $4,591,886 return

notes, mostly their own, $1,138,003. So that

THE TARIFF.

The subject is likely to go through a long

and obstinate discussion in Congress. The pre

sent body is much less inclined than in times

bast to submit to the unequal terms upon which we are obliged to trade with foreign nations, and much more inclined to provide adequate revenues for the government by means of dis

criminating duties.

We doubt, however, whether this Congress will do more than raise the duties, in a small degree, upon some important articles, and include all the free articles. The Cotton Planters must lose a little power, as they M ill under the

new census, and the Northern Dough Faces be

CHINA. There is another arrival from the Celestial Empire; but the intelligence brought may be summed up in a few Mords. The country is, and is likely to be, in a disturbed and hostile state. The Emperor is disposed to carry matters to extremes, and the English are disposed to carry on the Mar.

A hint to the girls. We have always considered it an unerring sign of innate vulgarity when Me hear ladies take particular pains to impress us with an idea of their ignorance of all domestic matters, while they are weaving a net to encase their delicate hands. Ladies, by some curious kind of hocus pocus, have got it into their heads that the best way to catch a husband is to show him how profoundly capable they are of doing nothing for his comfort. Frightening a piano into fits, or murdering the king's French, may be good bait for certain kinds of fish; but they must be of that small kind usually found in very shallow water. The surest way to secure a good husband is to cultivate the accomplishments of a good wife.
