fclrong, are perfectly organized against tiicm. The Administration are however in n decided majority, and no perma neiit obstacle is apprehended ; Mr. Hendricks of Indiana 13 also accounted on as an Hccession to the Administration. The resolution ol Mr. Groudy postponing the subscription ot Messrs. Guilts and Seaton's compilation of public documents, was taken up on Thursday, and referred to the Library Committee. As the majority of this Committee have been active in opposing the subscription through all its stages, the project is considered to have failed. It was a part) vote throughout, and on the final reference it wa carried 21 to 20. Mr. Webstei's motion . against the public printer has been passed over in 6ilence. In fact it never was considered here, as tenable at all. The wonder was how a man of unusual self pos session could have suffered his temper to gel 80 far the better of his discretion. You will have seen much in the papers concerning the "distractions" of the Cabinet as they have been called. Now so far as the measures of the administration are concerned, there nevei has been any division or dill rence in the Cabinet, and the misunderstanding which e xisted for a time between s me of the members, and which originated in the ffi cious malice of tale-oearers and slanderers, has been reconciled. Yju need give no credit to the stories which are constantly put into circulation, of the "divisions" in the Cabinet." From th U. S. Telegraph. BANK OF THE UMTED STA TES. We are aware of the great influence which this institution can bring to bear upon the legislation of the country; and we are too conversant with the secret spring which give an impulse to public

opinion, to be ignorant ot th combma tions which have been formed, and are now forming to sustain it. If it be true that the press is the gret palladium of liberty if the extension ol knowledge and the freedom f opinion are essential to the perpetuity ot onr republic n form of government it is equally true that those who would revolutionize or subvert this government, must first purchase or intimidate the press. The Bank of the U. States has purchased in a proportion of the public press. It can penetrate every village arid hamlet at will, and will spare no expense to accomplish its object. It was our intention to have replied to the declamation thrown out in its

favor, but our multiplied engagments,.jPCt in our miljd? and to give it ,ne ben.

consequent upon tne session of Congress, have heretofore prevented us. We did entertain a hope that the subject would be debated in one or hoth Houses oi" Congress, and we preferred to record the opinions of others to the publication of our own; but we now propose, in the event of the subject not being discussed Sn Congress, to lay b fore oui readers a few facts and reflections connected with the subject, having a tendency to strip the question of the tinsel with whi h the I3ank and its influence have too successfully attempted to adorn it. We are aware thnt one of the strongest arguments urged in favor t-f this institution, is the want of a less objectionable substitute. It is not our proviin e to propose such a substitute, but with a view to prepare our readers lor our remarks, we copy the following letter from Mr. Jefferson to Mr. Gallatin. Thomas Jeffenon to Mr. Gallatin. 'The Attorney General having consid ered and decided, that the prescription in the law lor establishing a bank, that the officers in the subordinate offices, of disccunt and deposit shall be appointed, "on the same teims, and in the same manner practised in the principal of rotation, established by the legislature in the body of dir. ctors in the principal bank, it follows that the extension of that principle has been merely a voluntary and prudent'al act of the principal bank, from which they are free to depart. I think the extension was wise and proper on their part, because the legislature having deemed rotation useful in the principal bank constituted by them, there would be the same reason for it in the subordinate banks established by the principal. It breaks in upon the esprit (hi corps so apt to prevail in permanent bodies; it gives a chance for the public eye to penetrate into the sanctuary of those proceedings and practices, w hich the avarice of directors may introduce for their personal emolument, and which the resentments of excluded directors, or the hone&ty of those duly admitted, might betray to the public; and it gives an opportunity at the end of the year, or at other periods, of correcting a choice which, on trial, proves to have been unfortunate, an evil of which themselves complain in their distant institutions. Whether, however, ihey have a power to alter this, or not, the executive has no right to decide; and their consultation with you has been merely an act of complaisance, or from a desire to shield so important an innovation under the cover of executive sanction. But ought we to volunteer our sanction in such a case? Ought we to disarm ourselves of any lair neht of animadversion whenever that institution shall be a legitimate sub jeel of consideration! I own I think the

most proper answer would be," that we doj

not think ourselves authorized to give an opinion on the question. From a passage in the letter of the President, I observe an idea of establishing a branch bank of the United States in New Orleans. This institution is one of the most deadly hostility existing, against the principles and form of our Constitution. The nation is, at this time, bo strong and united in its sentiments, that it cannot be shaken at this moment. But suppose a series of untoward events should occur, sufficient to bring into doubt the competency of a republican government to meet a crisis of great danger, or to unhinge the confidence of the people in the public functionaries; an institution like this, penetrating by its branches every part of the Union, acting by command and in phalanx, may, in a critical moment upset the government. I deem no government safe which is under the vassalage of any self constituted authorities, or any other authority than that of the nation, or its regular functionaries. What an obstruction could this bank of the United States, with all its branches be in time of war? It might dictate to us the p' ace we should except, or withdraw its aids. Ought we then to give further growth to an institution so powerful, so hostile? That it is so hostile we know, Ut, from a knowledge of the principles of the persons composing the bod) of directors in every bank, principal or branch; and'thoseof most of the stockholders; 2nd, from their opposition to the measures and piinciples of the government, and to the election of those friendly to them: and 3d, from the sentiments of the newspapers they support. Now, while we are strong, it is the greatest duty we owe to the safety of our Constitution, to bring this powerful enemy to a perfect subordination under its author ities. I he first measure should be to re duce them to an equai footm ony wi(h other banks, as to the favors of the gov ernment. JLut in order to be able to meet a general combination of the banks against u?, in a critical emergency, could we not make a beginning towards anindependant use of our own money, towards holding our own bank in all the deposits where it is received, and letting the Treasurer give his draft or note, for payment at any particular place, which, in a well conducted government, ought to have as much credit as any private draft, or bank note, or bill, and would give us the same facilities which we derive from the bank?? I prav you to turn this sub efif of your knowledge of details ; where as I have only very general views of the sujxt. Affectionate salutations. Washington, December 1 3, 1 80 to. Extension uj Manufactures. The manufacturing enterprise of the United States is still extending. The Newburyport Hosiery Manufactory supplies its neighborhood with excellent cotten stockings, superior to the imported. Cotton bagging is also manufactured in great plenty in the vicinity of Providence. The manufactory of Tacks is carried on extensively at Abington Mass. about twenty miles from Boston, by patent machines, which turn out the best ever made. Great quantities are used in Boston, and still greater exported to other places. The article of Penknives, heretofore almost exclusively imported, has recently been undertaken in Worcester, Mass. on an extensive scale. The knives are equal in workmanship and quality to those made in England. Buttons are made in abundance at Attleborough.Masg. Upwardsol forty trading houses in Philadelphia aresupplied by this manufactory. Most of the labour is performed by machinery, and females generally employed. In Vermont, Mathematical Instruments are made in a superior style. Gutters scales, rules, &c. in every variety, are stamped by a machine invented by Samuel Hedge. The machine admits of no variation and is correct. Paul Beck's shot Factory, on the banks of the Schuylkill, can furnish shot suflirienl for the consumption of the United States. Six factories are erected on the Atlantic coast since the tarilV, and several in Mississippi. The article is a mere dru, and dos not admit of exportation. Hats and Bonnets of Straw , a beautiful employment for females, has widely extended throughout New England; and prospers well. The annual consumption ofthis article is estimated at more than a million and a half of dollars. Lace. This manufacture is worth at least half a million, is a pleasing employment for delicate females and others denied the means of a livelihood, except by the labour of their hands. Artificial flowers are made in great variety in our towns and villages. A great part of those on sale are of domestic manufacture. Carpets are now used almost entirely of American manufacture; no matter by what name they are sold. Nearly all tne qualities made m Luropeare produictd in our loom?, and are equal to the iJkuropean. 7w. ( hron. Popfry and consumptions are the most flattering of all diseases. Shcnstoiis.

The discussion in the senate, on the sub ject of the removal of the Indians, will be found interesting, and, on the part of our senators, fully to support the views of the administration on that delecate subject. We would invite the attention of the reader to the letter of Mr. JtTrson, in relation to the United Stales' Bank, inserted to-day. Veto Paper. We have received the 1st and 2nd Nos. of the Greensburgh Chronicle." a paper recently established in this state by Elijah Mitchell. The Chronicle is neatly primed on a royal sheet, and in other respects bids fair to be a useful publication. The Editor has our best wishes for his success. Mr. Culley. You will confer a favor on me by stating that I am not a candidate for supervisor at the approaching election, as my business requires my attention at home. I must ask the indulgence of my friends for thu3 declining. Yours respectfully, J. W. HUNTER. Extract of a letter, dated Ueadin. Feb. 1 A terrible occurrence happened near Pottsville a few days ago. A Panther, rendered frantic by the snow and cold, sprang upoiija woman passing in the road; and killed her. I do not know her name, nor any other particulars The following 13 an extract of a letter from a shipmaster in France to a gentleman in Boston: "Paulive, Gth Dec. 1829. I am now 27 miles bel w Bordeaux performing Quarantine and shall be obliged to remain till the lGth, on account of the sickness at New Orleans, from which she sailed. Two of my men were sick with the scuivy, which was occasioned by being in want of water; for 20 days we were, on allowance of a pint of water per day. I saw a number of other vessels, but they were all in a similar condition. One ship arrived on the same day that I did, the whole crew of which had lived twenty davs on a dog and cat. and what mice they could catch." We do not know when we have ever heard a more distressing circumstance than is related in letters just received from Nashville in Tennessee. Mr. Thom as A. Duncan, (brother of G' u. Joseph Duncan, the Representative incongrtss Irom the State of Illinois,) left Nashville for New Orleans early in December, with the intention to settle in the former place. Having made his arrangements therp, he was returning to Nashville, but being in ill health and somewhat delirous from fever, he was landed at Iberville and was received with kindness at Mr. R bert Bell's of that place, a connexion of his wile. On the 27th of December, being lei t in charge of two men, they were overtaken by sleep, and just before daylight, Mr. Duncan rose, got out of the house, and it is supposed waded into the river until the cold drove him from it; when endeavouring to find Mr. Bell's house, (the houses being much alike) he mistook it for another, occupied as a store by a French man. Ibis person came to the door when Mr. D. knocked at it closed the door on seeing him went back and trot a sword, and, on returning stabbed him to the heart! Mr. D. was about 27 jcars of age, much beloved by hid friend?, and ha3 left a wife and two children to lament his death. Jat. Intel.

No brother's aid, Or sister's hand to prtss the dying head, Or close those eyes, or mingle tears with mine, Or with me fellow to his sacred shrine Those dear remains! Must each alone Hear the sad tidings of a father torn From his fami'y in manhood's prime?

Oh! do not mourn, hut strive to "kiss the rod;" All will be well with those that love their God. And tho1 thy father's honored head is laid Among the pale, cold nations of the dead, His virtues live ; fame shall his worth record, "An honest mai.'s the noblest woik of God."
