The State of Indian i was an agricultural Stale. :t w as not eoinineiei.d. We represented not merchants, but farmers; and -hould lo.ik to their itr.ere-ts. He had a creal an.! sincere respect for tlie mereliants id Indiana: he looked with pleasure, he was pro. id of the hi'i rank, and that so well merited, which their industry, economy, iii'entv and enterprise, had in so lew vears attained Kir t'lein. liut that when he w as a-'ked. to defer to their commercial know ledge, or to their financial skill, he eou'd not but recollect that nearly all of them, in the course of the last ten or i'.t'.cen vears oulv, had left the plough or shiip. or perhaps tie' grocery or tradiug !at. Wc were not legislating for uui--'.i:i'.s. !".it for firniers and mechanics. T-,e 1 ui !c itself w as not created any more :'.r merchants than for speculators inlands :"., lots. It was made by the represen,:.:ies of ranners for farmers and mechanics. Mr. Judah sattl, that t!ie exchange !mo'ss of our Hank was injurious in tw o -neets at lejst. If permuted evasions t!;.1 charter, and it mduei d an invi'st'Uofnionev in foreign banks, winch i oi; be use 1 more advantageously lor onr people at home. It authorizes an evasion of the Uh condition of the TSth, section, which re. ju ires five concurring votes out ti seven, and the ..yes and noes on a". I loans of '."00 or more; for it transi is the business by suiistituting a bill of exchange for a note from the Directors to a committee of three. I'nder the form of discount by the exchange committee, the restrictions in the loth section to six per cent, inleret is violate;!; an 1 this is considered bv commercial man, and would doubtless be cahed. by tlio liank coininitti c a mere, commercial matter; the regulation of the exchanges.

I have thus given, Mr. Speaker, a lew of the facts said to exist in thu conduct lof more or less of the (ranches. Facts not only not licnietl; hut m general annulled; and I ask, would i.not be proper, is it not our duty, if possible to restrain such conduct in a great public institution.' Thereply that is made is in substance, that jauv attack on trie evils aciitiowieugen uui i i : - ... . . 1 1. iter our uanivsvsiein is an auactv un mcbauk itself may endanger the charier and jeopardize tne existence of the Hank; and can otilv be stimulated by enmity to the Hank. This Mr. Judah said he considered mere declamation, which could onlv operate on the interested seeking an excuse, or on the nev ertheless, seeking a shelter. For himself he was prepared, and he was determined, to do his duty; and confidently relied upon a similar determination m the House. lie was determined to do his duty calmly and dispassionate! v; and sincerely hoped all partus in the House would do the same. Willi the experience which three years have adortltsd, he wished to look at the Hank charter, and at the action of the Hank under it. If restraints were required for the public good, and those restraints could be secured by liw, it would be the Juty of the Legislature to amend the charter. If otherwise, he would be one of the last to attempt to use the suspension to gratify any feelings, whether personal, or political, towards the bank: and such he expected to be the voice of the Mouse. If the bank would meet the question in t'ae same manner, there would be no dillicttltv. It would increase its claims to the public confidence; whilst all would discharge their duty to the public intersts: and the I'eople would be satisfied; the great object of all Legislation. 'Nothing is beneath tho Attention of a Great tVIan.' This short sentence is inscribed over the door of a small building in Holland, which was once the workshop of I'eter the (treat; and furnishes, more than volumes ol common description and history could do, an insight into the character of the man who raised the Muscovites from the tleepcst barbarism to the rank of civilization, and laid the foundation of an empire of which the world icons as yet little able to comprehend. Nothing more fully marks an original mind and stamps its possessor as a truly creat man, than the seizure of circumstances would pass unnoticed by the great multitude, and bv subjecting to tie powerful analysis of bis reasoning powers dcdueiuir inferences of the greatest practical results. The power of the loadstone to attract iron lias been know n from time immemorial; accident discovered the fact that a magnetised needle would indicate the north; but for a long time this truth was productive of no result. In the hands of Flavin (iioja of Amalfi it produced ihe mariners compass, an instrument which has changed the whole course of commerce, and opened America and Australia to the rest of the world. We owe the C.ilvanic or voltaic battery, one of the most science weiful instilments in advancing the world has yet seen, to Mad- .- .i a me (Jalv ni s noticing me coiuraeiion of th" muscles of a skinned frog accidentrllv touched by a person on whom her hti-uand was at that moment making an experiment in electricity.

The dry (J.dvanie pile it; the hands of the discoverer, I e Luc, w as nothing more than a scientific phvthinjr.

About one hundreel and fifty year." ago, an old man might have been seen in his study, witnessing the escape of steam from an old wine bottle, and checking it by instantly plunging il into cold water. Theie are multitudes who nicer at an observer w ho could stop ii notice such a irille; yet this expansion and condensation of steam in the wine bottle, and the train of thoughts which it suggested, in the hands of the Marquis of Winchester, gave birth to the steam engine, the most valuable present Science has ever made to the Arts. Those very men, who, filled with delight and astonishment when they beheld the beautiful steamboat majestically ploughing the waves, or the steam ear whirling its train of carriages over the rail-road with almost the rapidity of thought, would bo the first to look and speak with contempt of the train ef small causes that led to these important results. Calilco was at church at Florence, where a drowsy Dominican, was holding forth on the merits of the Virgin, and the miracles ef the Holy Church; this hirrangtie the philosopher cared ve ry little about. The principal lamp in the church had been left suspended in such a manner that it swung to and fro in the slightest breath, and caught the eye of the philosopher. The regularity of its ascillations struck him, and the itlea of employing sueh v ibrations to measure time occurred. Galileo left the church and returned to his study, and in a short time the first pendulum ever made was swinging. Some childrein playing with some glasses of a Dutch spectacle maker, accidentally placed two so that the steeple of a church appeared much nearer and bottom upwards. From this little beginning was produced the telescope: an instrument which more than any other has enlarged the boundaries of the universe, and given to man more exalted ideas ol that Ueing who spake all these worlds into existence. Hut perhaps the example of Newton, more than any other, conclusively proves that there is in the whole circle of nature nothing trilling to a truly great mind. Thousands have seen apples fall from the trees to the earth, yet no one had ever asked the question whether the cause that caused the apple to fall to the earth extended to the moon? yet this question and the solution was the key that has unlock ed the mechanism of the univer-.e, ami has given to man powers and ideas which could otherwise never have existed. The great truth these examples inculcate is this that there is nothing tabling in nature, nothing that is not worthy ol attention and reflection, nothing that docs not form part of the great chain of cause and cifect, and consequently capable of leading to the most valuable ami interesting events.

The editors ed' the Commercial Advertiser have received London papers to the 7lh. and Liverpool papers lo the Sth both inclusive. The dinner to the Queen at Cuih'.hall continued lo occupy a very large share ol newspaporial attention.

The most exciting incident of which we find any mention is the following "(iross outrage upon her Majesty, by u new claiment lo the throne." On Saturday afternoon the Ith of Nov. about three o'clock as her Majesty was pas- ... . . i i. o. sinir in Iter open carriage uirouyn ioc Hirtlcage-walk, St. James' on her way to Huckingham l'idace, whither she was proceeding from Brighton, a person in the garb of a gentleman suddenly sprang to the side of her carriage, and holding up his fist in a threatening manner, made use of obscene language, and with an oath elesignatcd her .Majesty by the most approl ious epithet that can be applied to a female, adding, "and I'll have yon off your throne, and your mother too." lie immediately ran off and effected his escape. Her .Majesty did not appear lo feel any alarm, and the cariiage proceeded rapidly to Huckingham l'alace. In forni .illin C f the nnlraire was immediate ly forwarded to the commissioners of police who instructed two police constables who had been on duty in the I5irde:ige-walk, to trace the offender. It appears thev had some clue to him for they soon discovered his name and

address. Liultr the wair.ml nt m Secretary of State thev pioeecik'd to h,! lodgings, st the corner ed' the lvcqent Circus where they liniiered about the whole night in the expectation that he would return home. It appeared, however, that he had armed before them, and on Sunday ii.c'i tnng trie of the constables knockeel at the door. On its being opened, thev pioceed' d up staus anil arrested the delinquent. His name i- John Oood, late a captain in the l'Uh hu-sars. He is elescribia! as a man of gentlemanly appearance, and is about lortv years ol age. He wore a star upon bis bio ost, and dared the officers to lav hold on him, exclaiming that he was their liecc loid and king of Fngland, ami that he would tear the Queen to pieces. He made a vigorous resistenee to t!ie eiffice rs, ami was with difficulty forced into a hackney conch, and

was driven to the Secretary of State's of lice at Whitehall. On the way he broke the winnows of j the coach, and conducted himself in the most outnio-eo'is manner. 1 his was at .i . . . . t i . i o one o clock on .-vi'iiiav. rir i react :e: Roe was in waiting at the Secretary ot State's office, before whom the prisoner underwent an examin ition. The vv ituesses examined were two footmin ol her Majesty, the two police constables already mentioned, and a d'ennan gentleman, whose name we have not been able to as certain, who heard tne prisoner npp.y the instilling: epithets to her Maptv. Durinjj the examination the prisoner con tinually interrupted the witnesses saying he did not cave a d n what tney say said about him, he was Kin' of I.tilanJ. Kin John the Second, and that the present was the eighth year of his rei:n. Mr. Philips, the under Secretary of State was present ihirinsj: the examination, vvhi ich lasttai ahout un hour id a half and one or two of the ministers were in an adjoining apartment waiting to hear the results.
