The correspondence between that Committee, and the Committee of the Directors of the Bank, shall bo commenceJ in my next. The report of the minority of the committee of Investigation, has been received, but is entirely too voluminous to be inserted. It, however, denies no fact stated in "the report of the majority, but relies upon the general privilege, that no person is .hound to furni; h evidence to criminate himself.

The following joint resolutions were introduced by Mr. Clay on the 'JSth ult., which were read and passed to a second reading: Resolced by the Senate and the House cf Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress Assembled, That the rcasgns, communicated by the Sccrc-

tary of the Treasury in his report to Con.

press of the 4th of December, 1S33, fur I the removal of the Denosites of the moncv of the United State?, from the Bank of the United States, and its branches, arc insufficient and unsatisfactory.

Extract of a letter to the Editor of the Indiana Palladium, dated Washington May 24, 1S31. The die is cast. The Bank has sealed its own fate, and the fate of the Bank Senate. Its refusal to submit to an examination of its affairs, is proof, strong as holy writ, of its corruption. It has set itself up against, nay above, the President, the Government, the people, the constitution, and laws. ADJOURNMENT OP CONGRESS. Mr. Boon's resolution for the adjournment of Congress was called up by unanimous consent on the 20th ult.' and after undergoing considerable discussion, was amended so as to provide that Congress shall adjourn on the 30th of June, by a vote of yeas, 130, nays, S3. The course of the Senate is somewhat uncertain. The specie currency in gold and silvet of Mexico, is estimated at four hundred and eighty millions of dollars. The rail road across the Allegheny mountains has ten inclined planes, five from the basin at Conemaugh, to the turnpike road at the Summit, a distance of twent-five miles and fiv e from the Summit to the basin at Hollidaysburgh, a distance of eleven and a half miles. The horizontal length of the first five planes isUMTi feet which over come an elevation of 801 feet, and the horizontal length of the second live 13,113 feet, with an aggregate descent of 1204 feet. The lowest grade is on plane No. 0, which rises 7i feet to the 100 and the highest grade is enplanes No. 6, 7 aud 8, which rise 104 feet to the 100. From the (Salem) Annotator. CANDIDATES. "The sovereign people' are beginning to enquire after these articles, a" little in this county. They expect, likely lobe able to find employment for a few. On the first Monday in August next, Candidates will have their stations assigned them. Some will be appointed to serve the people; and others, if they behave decently, will, after that time, be permitted to become a part of the people. But, should any grow outrageous, during the privileged season of candidateship, they "shall have their portion" among miserably disappointed demagogues, The season of electioneering, is to the people, a season of amusement and interest. They behold the fawning sycophant, who would prefer that his country should serve him, rather than to be served by honest men, bowing and almost crawling up on his knees, at their feet begging ofiice at their hands. "The farmer1 "the bono and sinew" "the main support," and like phrases, roll, with uudescribable softness, from the anxious office seeker's tongue. The patriotism of the stern Spartan, is rarely witnessed among candidates. Few return from the election field rejoicing, that even three "wiser" men than they, are found in their own county. But, on the'eountrary, candidates, too often, labor to blacken the character, and destroy the reputation of their competitors. This dssposition, the people could easily correct; and thus the cause of truth, and humanity would be greatly served. If every man, who is a candidate for office, and attempts to abuse or defame the character of his rival, should bo immediately dropped by the people, he would soon begin to praise, rather than censure his oponents. It would be well enough for the people to try this experiment with their would be humble "servants? Mrs. Somerville, au English ladv, has been elected a member of the Literary and Scientific Society of Geneva. The firsl honor of the kind ever conferred upon a temale. Chevrf.au, in his history of the world, tells us, that it was created the Gth Sep tember, on a Friday, a little after four in tho afternoon. This doubtless account for its being such a miserable world, as Friday is always considered an unluckv dav. A Sovereign Remedy.
