April 23. Mr. Cushman, from the committee on the public buildings, made the following report: 44 The committee on the

V' nublic buildings, to whom was referred the

i resolution, instructing them to inquire into 1 the expediency of purchasing three ofCaI pilliauo's marble busts of Washington, havt in had the subject under consideration, j renort That, however laudable it may be, i'the government, to cherish a disposition j friendly to the fine arts, and to patronize ; ingenious artiz ins, or politic to aIorn our public halls or libraries with the likenesses of departed saes or heroes, it is inexpedient to purchase these bust-, at this time, under existing circumstances." The re- . port was concurred in. Twenty-one private bills were passed, and eighteen more were ordered to be engrossed tor a third

! siderable debate; but the rest were dispuaed of without opposition. A ine-sairo was received from the president relative I to the claims of D. D. Tompkins, which ! had been referred back to him.

brought to Alexandria from the interior much more expeditiously by the opening a water communication with one of the branches of the Nile. He instantly perceived the advantages of the proposal, and he ordered his subjects to cut a canal. In the space of 6 weeks a canal was opened of the length of 18 miles. He has lately prosecuted the cultivation of Cotton and the sugar Cane w ith great success. He has consigned a quantity of cotton of the first quality to England for sale. lie never sells any of his produce at Alexandria, until he has ascertained its value by consignments abroad. The manufacture of suar is in progress, but none of it has reached England, lie has also attempted the distillation of rum. His highness maintains that the part of the religion of the prophet which

The Tariff Bill still engages the attention ofthe senate. The proposed rise of duty on iron and hemp, and the prospective duty on cotton bagging, with the additional duty on foreign distilled spirits, have been stricken out, and the minimum value on cotton goods has been reduced irom 35 to 30 cents; but there are strong indication- that a majority of one in the senale i favorable to the principle of the bill, and we understand it is probable that the votes concerning iron and hemp will be reconsidered, with a view to restore to the

I first duty proposed by the house, and toincrease the duty on the other, though not so bii'li as it was in the bill. The new seni atr from Illinois is daily expected, and

niucu is supposed to depend on his vote.-.

"I have been at Havana if you should ever visit the place, you will be able to. form a pretty correct idea of the economy ofthe cities generally in the south of Europe. I must however, say that the streets f in those cities are still narrower, still dirti- ( er, and the beggars in still greater numbers, than at Havana. As for business there is more of it than I thought possible to crowd into so small a snace:

for their landing place is not large, and counting houses generally at some distance from it. "The present Governor is a plain man, but not wanting in energy ; he has not been suspected of conniving at the piratical villanies, which are, as it were nursed and brought to maturity under the eyes of the government and he has entirely cxjtermined a gang of night robbers, who invested the city. Night robbing is, howlever, still common; but it is committed by ; stragglers, and a cane is sufficient protec- ; tion for a person, if alone two together

are seldom attacked. Ktl?Vier,no6trnuiPcrs is a village on th,2Yfto3K ofthe harbor, called Renin. It i reported that forty widows were made at one time by the late Lieut. Watson the number, no doubt has been considerably exaggerated, though it is probable that the whole number would not include all from this village, that have lost piratical husbands since our squadron commenced operations here. "There is a celebrated fellow who is

; called Et Diulokto. (the little Devil) and ! who walks the streets publicly indeed, there are a number who are known to belong to the fraternity, who walk without fear, and even salute persons whom they j formerly have robbed.

We learn from a Lexington paper that the Powder Mills owned hy h ssis. Spencer Cooper it Co. about a mile and a half from that place, " were blown to atoms'' on the IJOlh ultimo. 4iA negro man ho was working in the house was killed instantly, and two others severely wounded. The explosion took place in the dry house where there was upwards of 1000 pound of powder, nnd which sent up a column ol smoke that seemed almost to reach the skies. This is the second and by far the most sc-

in(ieorgia. A nart ofthe Indians have

removed, while the remainder are unwilling to have their native soil; and from thence, arises a dHlicultv of some considerable importance between Georgia and the genera Government. On the part of the latter, it is urged, that all has been done, that can be required, that the U. S. Was not bound to extinguish the Indian title in that state, unless it could be done on reasonable terms, and with the consent of the natives. Iv Georgia, it is contended that

the V. S. is bound to fulfil that treaty t

j ven by the entire subjugation ofthe Indi

ans in that state.

e are really surprised, to see such lan

guage, expressed by the delegation from any state, .and on any subject. The IJ. S. extinguish the Indian title, not by treaty, not by paying an equivalent, but because the poor natives refuse to leave the lands ceded to them, not by any earthly power, but by the Author of the Universe because bey nish to live and die in the land of their forefathers, endeared to them, by every fond association, therefore a war of indiscriminate extinction must be commonred by the Government ofthe U. S. How would the nature of such a campaign, appear on the historic page of our country? it would be a foul and deadly blot, such a one, as we fondly hope, will never be
