Wait at the foot of the winding staircase: I am g-.ing to viit the marquis, and will talk farther with thee at thy return. Manlred, after some general conversation desired Frederic to dismiss the two knisrhts
his companions, having to talk with him on
urgent alt airs. As soon as they were alone, he began in artful guise to sound the m arquis on the subject of Matilda; and finding him disposed to his wish, he let drop hints on the difficulties that would attend the celebration of their marriage, unless at that instant 13'irinca burst into the room with a wildness in her look and gestures that spoke the utmost terror.

These contradictions agitated his mind with numberless pangs. lie saw bet two methods of extricating himself from his difliculiies . The one was to resign his dominions to the marquis I'ride, amhition,.nnd his leliance on ancient prophecies, which had pointed ou! a possibility ol his preserving them lo his posterity, combated that thought. The other was lo press his marriage with Isabella. After long ruminating on these anxius thoughts, as he marched silently with Hippolita t. the
castle, he at last discoursed with that princess',
on the, subject ol his disq.ut, and used everv insinuating and plausible argument to extract her consent lo, even her promise of promoting, the divorce. Hippolita needed little persuasions to bend her to his pleasure. She endeavored to win him over to the measure of resigning his dominions; hut finding her exhortations fruitless, she assured him, that as far as her conscience would allow, she would raise no opposition, to a separation, though without better founded scruples than what he yet alledged, she would not engage in being active
in demanding it.

Lord, what, has not your greatness heard the story of the giant in the g ilk ry-chambcr? cried Hianca. I marvel his highness has not told ; mayhap you do not know there is a prophecy This trifling is intolerable, Interrupted Manfred. Let us dismiss this silly wench, my lord! we have more important niTiirs to discuss.

For my part, I should not be surprised il it was to happen to-morrow; fir, as I was saying, wheal heard the clattering of armor, I was all in a cold sweat; I looked up. and, if your greatness will believe me, I saw upon the uppermost bannister of the great stairs a hand in armor as big, as big-- thought I should have swooned; I never stopt until I came hither would I were well out of this castle! mv Lady told me but yester-mornin" that her highness Hippolita knows something Thou art an insolent! cried Manfred; Lord

Pursue your claim by manly daring; or let us bury the feuds, as was propo-cd by the intermarriage of our children: but trust me, it ill becomes a prince of your bear
ing to practise on mercenary wenches. I scorn your imputation, said Frederic: until this hour I never set eyes on this damsel: I hare given her no jewel! my lord, my lord, your conscience, your guilt accuses you, and you would throw the suspicion on me but keep your daughter, and think no more of Isabella. The judgments already fallen on your house forbid me matiching into it.
Manlred, alarmed at the resolute tone in
which Frederic delivered these words, endeavored to pacify him. Dismissing Bianca, he made such submissions to the marquis, and
threw in such artful encomiums on Matilda.'
that Frederic was once more staggered.
However, as nis ptssion was of so recent a
date, it could not at once surmount the scru
ples he had conceeived. He had gathered
enough from Hianca's discourse to persuade
him that Heaven declared itself against Manfred. The proposed marriages too removed his claim to a distance ; and the principality of Otranto was a stronger temptation, than the contingent reversion of it with Matilda. Still he would not absolutely recede from his engagements; hut purposing to gain time, he demanded of M mired if il was true in fact
that Hippolita consented to the divorce?

T my old friend Mr. Du-ighl, of the Were Yor Daily Advertiser. Washington, Dec. G, 1S34. I suppose you have read the message long afore this, and begin to think the limeaint far oil when we shall all on us be called to give the Frenchmen a stirrin' up for not'payin" us that just debt they owe us. I wish I could write French as well as I can American, for then Pd sit down and give Louis Philip my notions about this business, for I am plagily afraid he and hi folks don't know as much about the natur of this country as they ought to know. If they or any other nation think that because we differ in opinion here among ourselves on home matters. thcv are amazingly mistaken. War aintkalkilatcd lo bring much profit to any nation, especially to our nation as things now stand, but it will never do to look to profit or loss account in a business of this natur. The Frenchmen owe us five millions of dollars, and they must pay it, or we must tryjnnd get it out on"em if it costs five times the sum. The mode of doing this is for Congress lo say. If Congress says,urcaj'ta se," I for one of the people say, agreed. If Congress says, "take French property enough to pay the debt," 1 say agreed; and then if the Frenchmen do any thing in turn that looks like war, and Congress says, "0 at m now boys" I for one say, I am ready," and if any may think he can do more good at the head of a brigade of Militia than I can, he is welcome to my sword
and cock'ed hat, and I'll take his place in the ranks, I don't want a belter place to do my duty lo my country than that. I think it is the duty of every man on f his point, to drop all politics. Every man, to be sure, has a right to give his opinion in Congress as to the best mode of sctllin this business; but when once that Congress has ordered what is to be done, then my notion is for all
parties, lo shake hands and stand by the Government, and if it comes at last to the point, A?ia war is the word; then off coat and go af it. and have no disputing among ourselves till
we have thrash d the enemy.
If Congress should agree with the Gincral
that the best course, in case the Frenchmen don't pay us, is to take French property on the ocean, I suppose the Frenchmen who lose their property will think it mighty hard in us: well, if they do, they will understand exactly how our merchants felt some 20 year ago when their property wn tUn fmmtham.it aint a good tasted dish any way. Howsomever. I have a notionjthat the best way arter all to bring the Frenchmen to their senses, is to stop all trade with 'em, till ihey settle all old accounts. This is a peaceable
mode, and they'll soon rind out we can give up their ribbons and ruffles a little better than

BANK. OK TllL' UNITED SI" A i ts. Nov. 2Sth 1G3J. Sir Your favor of the I3ih of July last reached the Hank during my absence, and finding on m. return that my letters addressed to you at 'Washington had been published in the' newspapers of Nashville, it seemed ?eles to prolong a diru;-i n which could only inflame the passtonsof the countiyin the midst ol its elections. I have therefoie forborne o answeryour letter until the lime had passed for the'repetition of a similar appeal from the laws. The whole case appeal s to he exceedingly simple. There is a difference of cpinion between the Treasury and tbe Tan't about the damar.es on a bill of exchange. This is a matter of account which depends on the existing laws; and the acts of Congress provide specifically before what tiibun l. an 1 in what manner, this question must be tried. i bus by the act of the 3d of Match, 1797. it is providd, that if any person, accountable for public money, fails to pay it, 'it shall be the duty of the Comptroller, and he is hereby required to ins'itule suit for the recovery of the same,' and in such a n;l 'no rlaim for ii credit shall be admitted upon trial, but u:h as shall appear to have been presented to the Accounting Odier? of the Treasury for their examination, and by them disallowed in w hole or in part. The Hank has accordingly presented its account f-r damage?, which has been disallowed. It has then retained a soflicient amount of public money for the purpose, ami invited a suit by the Treasury so as to bring the sot j-M bcf.ue the. court. It did this and o statt-u it as the best if not the only mode,' of settling the question. Hut as the money iiielf was an object of indiir.rrence to the Hank, wh'n h sought only lo vindicate its own right, and the retaining it was a mere form, to comply with the art of Congress, t he Hank at the same time requested from the Secretary to know, whether the r.was 'anyother mode ofsubm'ttiig the right of the respective pailies to tbe judicial tribunals:
more acceptable to him and wouia insian-.iv
have released the money on any arrangemi ni with the Treasury lo hting the case befoie the court?. There is still more summery process rf Staining a decision. By the act of Congress,
of May 15th, 1029, il th public money oe withheld, the firt Comptroller of the Treasury can issue a warrant of distress against the party in default, who may then appeal to the Courts of the United States. Either of thesecourse is open lo the U nnV, l..:(j A .w,n it rlulv. it r-iii!ril IXfitm the proper tribunal,the Bank will always be ready to prove. 1. That lhe bill of exchange on the Iven-h
