The House was called to order at 12 o'clock. On motion of Mr. Taylor of New York, is was Resolved, That two Chaplains of different denominations be elected by Congress, one by each House, to serve during the present Session, who shall interchange weekly. Mr. Ward, from the Committee appointed in conjunction with a committee from the Senate, to wait on the President and inform him that the two Houses were organized and ready to proceed to business, reported that the joint committee had discharged that duly, and had been informed by the President, that he would transmit a Message to Congress this day, at 12 o'clock. The annual Message from the President of the United States was then received through the hands of A. J. Donelson, Esq. his private Secretary. R. M. Johnson moved that the message be submitted to a Committee of t!io Whole House on the Stale of the Union, and that 10,000 copies be printed. Mr. Everett, of Mass. suggested that the motion to print an extra number of copies, would require to lie one day on the table, without the unanimous consent of the House. He did not mention this, however, with any intention of throwing an obstacle in the way of the printing. The Speaker replied that the printing of the President's Message formed an exception to the rule referred to. The motion was then adopted nem con. O.i motion of Mr. Hoffman, the House then adjourned. From the New York Evening1 Post. Mr, Clay continues to keep himself and his claims before the country in public letters. He seems to have become sensible of the ridicule to which lie had subjected himself by his practice of making and publishing dinner speeches, full of larchrymose complaints of the wrongs he had received from his enemies. . He has lately undertaken to give his opinion on two subjects of considerable interest. One of these is the propriety of reducing imposts, a point respecting which be 6eems to have somewhat relaxed from the rigid principles of the American System. In passing the other day through Terre Haute in Illinois "to his farm in that State," he received a letter from a committee of his friends there, eulogizing his public services, and in particular his exertions in favor of internal improvements and domestic manufactures. Mr. Clay'g answer, dated Terre Haute, Oct. 23, has been published. After the usual common places concerning internal improvements and the "cementing tendency," as he calls it, of great roads, he comes to the topic of domestic manufactures, which he despatches in the following sentence: "We have only to persevere in our American system, relieving consumption aj'er the payment of the public debt, cs muQh as possible consistently icith an economical administration oj the government, wilii: Lit impairing the principle of protection, to be assured of continueJ prosperity.'1 Here is a full admission of the necessity of revising and reducing the tariff; a measure not long since proposed by the present administration, and strenuously reUted by its opponents. Will Mr. Clay's friends now be for a judicious tariff!

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE for president JACHSON. The Convention formed far the purpose of framingan Klectoral Ticket friendly to the re e'ectiop of Gen Jackson, met at Indianapolis accor. ding to appointment, on Monday last. We have not received the particulars of its proceedings ; but understand it was numerously attended. The following1 ticket was adopted by the Convention : Mr. Patterson, of Parke Co. ' Uoon, of Sullivan, k Crume, of Fayette, " Blake, of Mirion. Palmer, of Jefferson, ' Armstrong1, of Dearborn, " Ketchum, of Monroe, " Burnet, of Floyd, ' Givens, of Posey. Wm. Lanius and. J P. Dunn were appointed the Central Committee for Deatborn. A Resolution was adopted, approving- of the proposed Baltimore Convention, for the purpose of nominating a Candidate for the Vice Presi- ! dency, and appointing our whole delegation in i Congress, with the exception of Hon. W. Hendricks, as delegates from this state. 1 The election of Gen . Tipton to the United States Senate, must be truly gratifying to every friend of the administration. It is, however, but just, to 6ay, that, though Gen. Tipton"s election may be considered a triumph, on the part of the friends of Gen Jackson, they are much indebted to the opposition for their frank and efficient support. The Message of Gov- Noble will be found on our last page. It is a respectable state paper, and we bespeak for it a dispassionate perusal. The Grand Turk of the Statesman shook his huge mustaches at us, most ferociously, last week, for setting him right respecting the County Expose. Now, "Greg-ory, Greg-ory, don,t make a fool of yourself," if you do attempt to of your readers. Just have the condescension to compare the following statement, extracted from your farewell address to M. M'Cracken, Esq., with that made by us, and see how very wide they difFer. " I handed you a line stating that I would print it 4 without fee cr reiaard.'' Mr. Culley then handed in his proposition at six dollars, but subsequently offered to do it on the same terms that 1 had proposed." Cokgress. We have commenced, to-day, our annual report of the proceedings of this body, which will be continued as much in detail as our limits will permit. Through the polite attention of our Senator, Hon. VV. Hendricks and Representatives, Gen. J. M'Carty and Hon' R Boon, we have received copies of the President's Message. We shall give it in our next; in the mean time, any of our subscribers who may be impatient to peruse it, can do so by railing at the office. The important controversy, which for years has employed so many minds and "pens, is still carried on with unwearied energy. The press ovei flows with anecdotes, accrostics, allegoriest formal dissertations, and with productions in relation to the subject, wrought after every variety of fashion. In very many instances, the public prints have injured their cause by an intemperate zeal in favor of the candidate whom they support. They have indulged in all the coarseness and mendacity of a Cobbett, wilhout possessing the whim and the hum or, the spe ciousness of reasoning and illustration, the terseness and perspicuity of style, which ren' dered the writings of that notorious political incendiary endurable- There are doubtless some prints, which are honorable exceptions to these remarks; but there are also many, to which all will acknowledge they may be applied with truth. It is questionable whether any individual could be named, among the most devoted friends of Gen. Jackson, during the last presidential contest, who did him greater service than did Jobs Uinsts, of Coffin-Handbill notoriety. This was so apparrent, that in many instances his infamous productions irerd reprinted in hand-bills and circulated by the friends of the man they were intended to destroy. There is little doubt but that a similar advantage might be derived from republishing and circulating- more widely, many of the ma' licious slanders with which the opposition journals are daily teeming. They are perfect illustrations of the distich, " His gun, well aim'd at duck or plover, Bore wide and kick'd its owner over." Iate; Foreign Kcw. From the X. Y. Standard, Extra, Dec. 3. J'ezcs from Liverpool Oct. 25lh. Saturday Evening, Dc. 3J, 1-2 past 8 o'clock. By the arrival of the packet ship York, Capt. Bursley, sailed Oct. 25th, we have this moment received London papers from the 18th to the 24th, and Liverpoell to the 25th inclusive. We make such extracts as the lateness of the hour will permit. It will be perceived that Parliament has been prorogued to Nov. 22d for the purpose, as is declared in the King'd Speech, such we publish below, of ascertaining the present sense of the people on the expediency of ReforRi in the representation. Earl Grey has announced his resolution to persevere in the support of Reform, so long as he shall have any reason to hope lor success. The Brimingbam Political Union, a society which sways as much power now iu the country as the Catholic Associa

tion orer did in Ireland, have published an address which we insert below, recommending the formation of political societies in every town in England, to concentrate public opinion, and to unite all voices in reform. They exhort the people to liimns, order and moderation. Very great excitement existed, and the attention of all classes whs absorbed in the one great question of reform, but less disturbance had occurred than was feared, some details are given below. Some of the j lurnals anticipated a postponement of the meeting of Parliament until January, but the Morning Chronicle of 24th Oct. announces on the best authority that it will meet on 12:h of December, at the latest, and that the Bill will then be brought in. If Ministers were to make any change, it would be to make it more democratical; but they will bring in THE Bill. The King, in his answer to the address from the city of London, declares that his desire for the success of the great measure of reform is unabated, and tfiat he will continue to promote it zealously. The Eirl of Tankerville had been pelted wi h stones on his way through Darlingtop. Mr. O'Connell has received a silk goevn, whether as a prelude to cflice is not known. Lord Lonsdale had offered several rotlon boroughs for sale, but there were no purchasers. RevM Dr. Murphy, Bishop of Cork, was nearly dragged out of the mail coach at Bath, having been mistaken for another Bishop who voted against the Reform Bill.

Lord WharnclifJe had been request ed by part of his regimeut to resign ; he declined so doing. 40,000 of property have been destroyed by shipwreck at the Cape of Good Hope. The Cholera had made its appearance at Hamburgh some doubted its being the real cholera. Sir T. B. Martin had been dismissed from his office of Comptroller of the Na- i vy, on account of hi9 differing from the 1 King and the Ministry in the Reform Bill. Petitions nnd addresses in favor of Reform were pouring in from all quarters. The French Government has introduced a new Corn L?tw , abolishing prohibitions, and permitting importation at reduced duties. One of the largest failures known for a long time has taken place at Loyd's. The parties) had been established for more than 40 years, and always enjoyed great credit. FRANCE. The bill for the Reformation cf the Peerage has been finally disposed of by the Chamber of Deputies. It is founded on the principles that the Peerage should endure for life; that the nomination of the Peers should exist in the Crown, and that their number should be unlimited. BELGIUM. The Ministers of the Five Powers have at length arranged the terms on which Holland and Belgium are to arrange their affairs, dividing their territories, declaring Belgium a "neutral state," proclaiming a general amnesty, fixing on each a part of the large national debt, &lc. and threatening to enforce the decision by arms if either of the parlies reject it. POLAND The cause of the patriots is for the present utterly lost. Of the treachery of a part of the Polish leaders is no longer any doubt, and Krukowiecki who was the latest commander in Warsaw seems to have acted a conspicious part in the sacrifice of his country Modlin had surrendered the Russians entering on the 9ih October and (he army was entirely dispersed. The Grand Duke Michael and marshal Paskewilsch had returned to Warsaw on the I8lh Oct. RUSSIA. Field marshal Count Deibilsch Sabalkanski was buried with great ceremony at St. Petersburgh, on 27 i li of September, in the forms of the Protestant Church. He was a Prussian. Tbe Clay papers gay that Mr. Clay is willing to yield to any man who can concentrate more strength than he can against General Jackson. That is magnanimous, particularly as Mr. Clay knows the thing is impossible. He hs? more strength by a dozen electoral votes than Mr. Wirt and Gen. Jackson has about one hundred percent, more than the whole lot of them put together. The Baltimore Convention will nominate Mr. Clay. The Anti-Masons will stick to Wirt and ail we mean to d i?, to stand by and eat the oyster. They shall each have a shell. Emporium and True American. The cotton crop in Tennessee is paid to be vry unpromising; "gloomy accounts,"" says the Nashville Republican, ''continue to reach us from every section of the state, where the article is cultiYalcd. Throughout Middle Ten-

nessee and the Western District, with the exception ol particular neighborhood?, the complaint is universal; in sme counties not more than half, in others not more than a third of a crop can becaeulated upon. All admit that the aggregate will fall very short of the quantity which a common and usual product would have yielded,"

On Sunday night Mrs. Nancy Priest depart, ed this life of a wound received in the abdomen by a butcher knife . There were circumstances attending this unfortunate affair of sufficiently doubtful character to induce the holding1 of a coroner's inquest. The result of the inquirywas that the deceased came to her death acci dentally by the hknds of her husband ; it appearing by the evidence of his brother and sisters, w& from himself, that they were playing, and that in the act of throwing the knife f om him it struck his wife and inflicted the injury. No one, however, was present but himself, w hen the accident occurred. Butcher knives are dangerous things to play with let husbands bsware! Statesman. Sudden Death. On last Monday morning Mr. Abial Uakir, a very respectable citizen of this county, suddenly fell dead from his horse, or while in the act of fixing his saddie blanket. He had left home that morning in good health for Cincinnati, and had proceeded as far as New Lawrenceburgh, when he was thus overtaken by the fatal messenger. It is thought that he died of an apoplectic fit. lb. NOTICE.
