so with much suroicion, because the originators of the

movement in its favor, here and elsewhere, were prinei-

folly, and imprudence. Another cause for opposition to

Mr- Havne's bill was taken up in the body refused, 16 to 82. to amend by pro-

vWSriB that the bill should not extend jto previous contracts. —The bill was rejected Jan. 31. 181 --ayes 15, nays 25. Feb, 1. the bill was re-considered, 20 to 17, and amended. Feb. 6. Mr. Branch, of North Carolina, moved to inchido banks and other incorporations rejected 12 to 35, and the bill was again negatived, aves 21, nays 27. In April, 1840. bills were introduced in the Senate, and the subject ably and eloquently discuseed. and on the 26th June, one of the bills* after undergoing various'amendments, changing tnaterinlly its original features, passed by a vote of 34 to 19 rbe bill was rejected in tho House by a vote oflOl to 8J.

We aro glad to perceive that the matter has now been brought up in a quarter that cannot but tend to undo tho suspicion that was raised against it, from the character of thoso who were loudest in its favor. Since the adjournment of Congress, the people themselves have given it an attentive consideration, and the proceedings of thj Ward meetings recently hold, show their feelings in relation to this most important proposition. We collect from the resolutions passed, the following evidences or public opinion. Wafc of space alone prevents us from adding numerous others we have

Hho meeting held in the Fourth Ward passed the following resolution by a unanimous vote: Resolved, That we aro decidedly in favor of an eqttitable and just Bankrupt Law, that will release, the honest and unfortunate debtor, on the surrender ot his effects for th« benefit of his creditors, and at the same time will punish fraud whethcrin individuals or corporations.

The Democracy of the 17th Ward passed the follow-

ing judicious resolve Resolved, That our riles, social and political.

bind ua to render justice to a?l men, and that we will

support in behalf of unfortunate debtors, such bankrupt laws as shall secure to the honest debtor his freedoni, without injustice to creditors, and hold corporations, os well as endorsers, to a strict accountability. ii emit trmilttr resolution* patted by the I. a.party in the 6/*, 8/*, 9:h and 16/A Wimfc of the city.

After the above expression of popular opinion favo' of the passage of a General Bankrupt law—and i' is but a reflection of opinion in all parts of the country —we trust that Congress will, before the close of the present session, show their regard for the public, voice, DV prompt action in the premises. Tho project of so fljjp jnw-8r

als, is sustained t»v strong ann powenui reasons. The injustice under which our own citizens labor, and the advantages alien creditors have over them, inconsequence of the neglect of our National Legislators, mav oe seen by this fact. In Wheaton's Reports, page 384 Ogden vs. Saunders, it was decided by the Supreme Court of the United States, that "a certificate of discflarge under the State law cannot be pleaded in bar of an action brought by a citiwm of another State, in the courts of theiUnited States, or of any other State than that where the dncharse was obtained." The consequence of this is, that if a citizen of this State is in debt to other citizens of this State, and he can procure the signatures of two thirds of his creditor* for h* discharge, the remaining third, although opposed, are compelled to aoquirace. it is aot so with the alien or fore-.gn creditor—4e can bring \m action in the courts of theUnited States, recover judgment, and getnn execution levied against th« cititen debtor, who has obtained his discharge under the laws of this State, and1 surrendered all he possessed. It appears, therefore, that th» f*rt»al working of the State insolvent laws, conflicting with the existing iawe of the United Statta, gtvtna foreign creditors the prefereacs over American cm tens, is a good and tuffiaen'. reason that even-handed jtutice to creditor as well as debtor should he meted out by the enactment of a General Bankrupt Lew. The odtK tton of separate bills wilt, without doubt, exp .« the action of Congrws on a subject involving the rate of .thousands ot our mostejtimanle ti\nfbrtunalKitiXeBS.

At the instance ot Mr. Everett, the President of the United States wns requested to communicate to the House, if compatible with the public in'erest, copies of all correspondence between this Government nnd the (Government o'Grent Britain relntive to any proceedings on tfc* pnrt of that Government which may have ntendencv to interrupt our commerce with Chinn.

In consequence of information from the War Department, that it would take a large number of Clerks about two months to prepare the paper* in nnswej to a enll he had moved on former dnv, Mr. Proffit offered the following resolution, which was adopted:

Resolved, That so much of the resolution of this House, adopted on the 17th December, ns calls for all the correspondence between the Wnr Department nnd the Superintendents of the Cumberland rond. &c.. is hereby rescinded and the said Department is required to furnish only copies of the orders (if my such have 5een given) to suspend operations on the public works on the lake-borderspfOhio.

One of the most extraordinary features of Mr. Wood bury's annual report on the finances is his estimate of

_AEVF.lt AND AGUE.—TO MY FRIKND5 IN

have used the LIFE MTBICIKES in treatment of rrft* Ann AGCB.

It is but very short time tnce these Medicines have bem introduced into the l-ever snd Ague District?, and the proprietor flatters himself that tlunog twat period, wherever Uicy have been used accordii to the directions, they have done more towards exterminating ijietlisease, than all oMier remedies and prescriptions combined. I* is a common excuse anion# "regular practitioners" when specifics are introduced, that they cannot cure diseases which people are in the habit of considering incurable. Medical experience is continually doing away a part of the list of the incurable diseases, and Mr. Moff.it has the happiness of confidently announcing that FEVER AND AGUK is now to be added to the number of complaints which modern skill has conquered.

In Fever and Ague the nr* MEBICINKS not only jpVe quicker relief than any other remedy, but if _PERS( vered in, effect a PKRMAKKHT CUBE SO that the patient is only ordinarily careful, and resorts directly to his medicine upon the first symptom of tendency to anew attack, it may always be warded off. To escape one chill would be of infinitely more consequence to the sufferer than the \alue of the remedy—to remove the disease permanently would confer a benefit upon him which cannot be estimated by any earthly standard. That these Medicines will effect what is here claimed for tlkem, the Proprietor has the testimony of all acquainted with them and their application and use in the Fever and Ague and his object in now addressing his friends at the West is to request them that they will spare no pains in communicating their experience, and disseminating this highly interesting information, now thai the season for Fever and Ague has arrived.

It is not for the mere purpose of disposing of a few hundred packages of the Life Medicines, that the proprietor makes this appeal. The^lemand for his Medicines is already greater than he can conveniently supply and even were it insufficient to afford him business, he would conceive himself supremely selfish, if his pleasure was not greater nt the benefit conferred upon the suffering part of the community by an inCfeak?e h,s sales, than 8t h»8 own pecuniary profit.

The Life Medicines, if properly used and persevered in, recommend themselves still it is necessary that ihe public should know that such medicines exist, and hence the propriety of advertising litem. It is hoped, therefore, that the proprietor will not be accused of egotism when he says that there is no medicine or mode of treatment extant, for fever and ague, so appropriate, thorough and positive in its happy effects as MOFFAT'S LIFE PILL'S AND PHCENIX BITTERS.

For futher purticulars of the above medicine see Moffat's Good Samaritan, a copy of which accompanies the medicine. A copy may also be obtained of the different Agents who have the medicines for sale.

O^-French, German, and Spanish directions can be obtained on application at the office, 375 Broadway.

O^—All FOST PAID letters will receive immediate attention. Sold wholesale and retail by WM. B. MOFFAT, 375 Brondway, N. Y. A liberal deduction made to those who purchase to sell again.

AGSRTS.—The Life Medicines may also be had of the principal druggists in every town throughout the United States and the Canadus. Ask for Moffat's Life Pills and Phenix Bitters and be sure that a facsimile of John Moffat's signature is upon the label of each bottle of bitters, or box of pills.
