It is an smbitious essay written with a goed degree of ability, but setting forth, to our minds, no clear and definite conception of the true nature and method of met- sphysic inquiry. It is vague and indefinite and’ essentially superficial. It opens by proclaiming an adhesion to the Baconian method of induction, as the only «rue path of intellectual inquiry; and then insists upon the necessity of closely observing the phenomena of consciousness and of being par- ticularly careful to distinguish that of which we really are conscious from what we only imagine very good advice, but not now fer the first time given. The writer sncers at what he styles “mere Platonic meditation,” though how this differs from a true inspection of consciousness he does not state. The discipline afforded by metaphysi- cal study is insisted upon und the necessity of a correct mental philosophy to the proper under- standing of theological doctrines is urged. The article is long end well worth reading, though full a3 it seems te us of hasty judgement and error. It embraces several very interesting sketches of well-known theologians. Ed a very large paper, Saturday moraing, at vance, The second article is a review of the®Yorks of the late Nathaniel Emmons, D. D., presenting a sketch of Lis characteristics 3 2n eloquent preacher and an eminent and able divine. We observe that the reviewer, quoting from the recent article on Loyola and the Jesuits in Edinburgh, erroneously attributes it to Macaulay. The article is able and well written, though only the first portion of it is presented in this number. Miles Coverdale,’ the first translator of the Bible into English, is the subject of the third article which is mainly a clear and vigorous history of the various translations of the Bible that have been made in England. The next paper, and the best in the number, is a translation of a letter from the great German, NIEBUHR, to a young Philologian—written for his guidance in study, and presenting the manner in which classical studies should be conducted and the object at which they should aim. He recommends his young friend to turn away from satire and trilling poetry. Homer, schylus, Sophocles, Pindar,” says he—*these are the poets for the young-—these the writers on whom the great men of antiquity nourished themselves, and who, so long es literature enlightens the world, will ennoble the soul early filled with this spirit, and strengthen it for the conflicts of life.” Read them,’ he adds, ‘not for the purpose of making reflections upon them as works of taste, but in or- der to read yourself into them, and to fill your soul with their thoughts, that you may profit by the perusal as you would by listening with reverence to the discourse of great men.’ It is a most ad- mirsble and valuable letter. The Editor presents a brief review—which we wish had been fuller and more complete—of De Wette's Practical Ethics, and the Review contains two articles beside—one on the.‘ Duty of Ministers to’ Each Other,’ and the other upen the Systematic Theology of the Early Church.’ It has also very copio .s and satisfac- tory collection of Literary Notices and of General Inteliigence— especially of literary doings on the Continent of Europe. From a notice of a volume of German Lyric Poetry recently published in Bos ton we copy the following passage: GerMas Hants or 1THoveHT.~—The Germans, like true poets, have the faculty of discovering re- semblances, with a quickness of visicu truly aston- ishing; und of working up minute incidents, as the theme of the most charming melodies. This fac- ulty, indeed, seéms to be the peculiar gift, not of poets only, but of most of the nations of continental Europe. We find, in their books, events of so tri- vial a character, that an American, or. an Eoglisti- man would never think of speaking of them, made the basis of a thrilling arucle. This atiention to lide occurrences, of which they make such use, may be attributed to any one, of several causes; either a freshness of mind, an unsophisticated nat- uralness, a perpetuity of youthful ardor, fer which, even their old wen are distinguished; or, the habit of noticing whatever takes place or, the absence of great events and subjects of thought, leaving the ed BY GREELEY McELRATH.

As 2 citizen of New-York and one who has had a connection with ber councils and with her differ- ent departments for no inconsiderable time, I beg leave to address to my fellow citizens, through the press, a few remarks on a subject, in my estima- tion, of high interest. I have at this moment beer: led to do this from the presentation of the plan of Police, now before the Common Council, though the evils of our City Government have been with me the subject of long previous consideration. You bave, fellow citizens, your estates mort gaged to an amount of Fourteen Millions of Dol- lars, bearing an interest of 63 per cent.: with no productive property worth mentioning, for to enu merate our prisons, city grounds, squares, batte- riez, markets and slips, (which do no more than keep themselves in repuir,) as property to ba re- lied on to pay debts and which probably cannot be sold, is absurd in the extreme. In addition to your debts, you have also 4000 paupers to support, and if you include what i termed the out-door poor, you have four or five thousand more, under the care of your Almshouse Commissioners. Of your paupers, 380 are luna: tics and 900 are children at school and male ard female prisoners, including those waiting trial and in the House of Refuge, litile short of 1000. You have a population (of many different nativns) oi 325,000 to keep inorder and make subservient to the Law. The care and charge of the Prisons, the Almshouse, Wharves, the Public Schools, the Cleaning ef Streets und the health of the City, the watching, protecting and lighting the City, the pubiic property, particularly that representing I'welve Millions of Dollars, the Croton Water Works, City Debt generally, all require regulation, supervision and laws for their care, government and protection; ard in the executive offices is re- quired talent, industry, economy and honesty. I have enumerated no facts, net known to you: and let me ask, fellow-citizens, are you satisfied. as you should be, that you have a City Govern- ment, with executive officers capable cf taking care of these great interests? Are you satisfied with the management of your affairs 7 Have your city funds been industriously collected, and when collected have they been honestly paid into the City Treasury. Have your high officers been alert in the detection of frauds Is not your sys- tem so bad that a collector can collect revenues for more than a year, and amounting to more than $60,000, and yet no bedy know any thing about it! In your Police Department have the public the surety when criminals are bailed, or when recog- nizances are taken, that they will produce the prisoner on the day of trial? Are you satisfied as to what has become of the $27,000 of fines and penalties imposed by the Courts—is it in your Treasury or where Are yeu satisfied that between the magistrates and marshals and rogues and criminals there is ne concerted alliance? Are you satisfied to bave had your City for three months without a Government on a dispute between politicians! Now fellow citizens, if you are satisfied with this brief allusion to your condition, then you should continue to enjoy it; and perhaps you value it be- cause it costs so muck, not an unusual mede ol valuing things. 1f this is the criterion of value we have a mest excellent City Government, for our taxes now (exclusive of much partial or local tax, particulariy by way of assessment) amount to two millions of dollars. That this City Government of ours is good, i- certain, the only objection ix, we don’t pay enough for it! Te remedy this, the Corporation, ia then Police Report, propose to pay themselves $34,000 {each to pocket $1000) in addition to what they now get, such as $4 a day auending Court, Boara of Supervisors, auending us Excise Officers to grant Licenses, &c. &c. And yet they will work hard end pay meney to get into office. Itis said they can’t afford to devote so much time from their private business, and yet, instead of uttending tv the duty, and the only duly imposed upon themby law, the Legislative duty, they boast in the Police bill referred to, that the Aldermen and Assistant Aldermen tender more duty than their officers! that is—they know and do more than their Street Commissioner and their Comptroiler! And we now-see an examination by a commit. tee of the Corporation as to the setting fire to the prison, thus becoming Police Justices. We ad- mit this is right, and only regretitin case the ma- gistrates aro supposed to be concerned. But is it not an anomaly that the same individ: uals, as a Committee on Public Offices and Re- pairs, build our prisons; as Watch and Police Committees, arrest and examine us; asa Market Committee, contract for our food and raiment; as Supervisors, tax us, and as Common Council men ROMANCE AND REALITY, By L. E. L.......35 Gu ituB ROY. BRIDE OF LAMMERMOOR, KENILWORTA .........0, VENETIA, by DIISIRC cs er ereironsisnee sens snsdd oN HANDY ANDY, with plates.ccceeiircacesseas 125 that you appoint a Committee of five from each Ward, of your most cxperienced and intelligent citizens, without reference to politics, to prepare a modification of the laws in reference to Assess. ments, Police, Waick, Tazalion, Inspectors and Weigh-Masters, Markets, Duties and Pay of Aldermen, &ec. &-c. That our police wants modification, I admit, but I do not edmit that no men in our city can be fousd, willing to accept the offices of Magistrates and Police Justices, who could not be corrupted, as it is alledged they are, even under the present system. I apprehend the faut begins with the people, in not selecting and appointing members of the Com- mon Council who will practice less of Politics and more judgement and discretion in the selection of their officers and in the performance of their duties cenerally. But I have not room in this article to extend tins branch of the subject. Our city is as populous as many of the States, and requires more law and regulations, and col-. lects and pays out more monies than any State in the Union. The States have Gevernors and Sen- ators and Assemblymen. They make the laws only and have Departments to execute them. [hey are selected, to a great extent, for their knowledge and fitness for their situations. Do you, fellow-citizens, select your City Governors and your City Senators by the same rule? Do not say they do not perform the same high duties. They do equally so: they prepare ull the laws re- fating to the city. In this very police report re- ferred to, is a clause altering the Magna Charta of Great Britain and our Bill of Rights, providing a new mode, by which your bureaus and secreta- ries can be broken open in search of suspected papers! The makers of tie Common Law, in the opinion of the Police Commtiee, have been de- ficient in establishing a proper rule, and they pro- pase one which the people would not tolerate, even in Old England! In conclusion, I remark, the interest of the City, and not party, is my object in writing this article. I'he present Common Council is as good as the average, but they will excuse me if I apply to the City Government the paragraph they applied to their officers in the police report. “Thus corruption 1s incidental to the construc- tion, and necessarily se, to the administratien of a systern which holds out inducements and tempt: ations to tndiscreiions, if not crimes, scarcely “to bo rejected or resisted by the best men that “can be found willing to act under it.” But I repeat, it is the system I allude to and would improve; and if any good is to grow of the suggestion, it can only be by appointing delegates irom the Wards who will exclude all politics from their doings.

The suggestions concerning a radical change in the mode of governing the city, by which the welfare of the inhabitants, and not the pride of a political party, may be made the ob- ject aimed at, is worthy of all favor; though we greatly fear there is little hope of persuading our good citizens that the prosperity of the whele United States, with its Territories, does not de- pend directly and immediately upon the triumph of Whigs or Democrats in this city. National politics, the Presidential question, &c. are all very well in their place, and it is of the highest neces- sity that they be duly weighed and rightly decided. But we do think that when our muricipsal affairs so sadly need reform—when the city is burdened by an enormous and growing debt—when the money collected for its payment is stolen with im- punity, or suffered to be wasted by spendihrifts, or lost through carelessnoss—when a general dis- trust pervades the people of the ability and integ- rity of our officers of justice, and of the regula- tions by which their action is guided—when the blackest crime suffers the least punishment, and escapes the oftenest with no rebuke—when Law is bearded and Justice scoffed at—in such a state of things, we confess a decided conviction that, at least at one Spring Election, we should leave the Union to take care of itself—as we have faith it will—and attend faithfully and efliciently to our own business. The article to which we allude contains some suggestions which our readers will do well to heed just at this time. Its specific re- commendations we leave to the judgement of those who will read them. 03 On our last page wilibe found an article on Capital Punishment, from the pen of a gentleman who never writes but after careful thought, and with vigor and logical power seldom equaled. As our readers know his belief is opposed to ourown, but as we desire a careful and thorough discussion of the question, we cheerfully give it an insertion. MEecuanics InstiTute.—Dr. Robert Nelson, of this city, delivered befere tho Mechanics [osti- tute lust evening a very practical and useful Lec: ture upon the treatment of Accidents when medical attendance is not at hand. Though himself one of the ornaments of his profession, and devoted to ite practice, he yet insisted that plain common sense and sound discretion are in cases of ordinary acci- dents, such as wounds, burns, fainting and other fits, &c. of far more service than an acquaintance with the technicalities of surgical service. His directions were simple, practical and calculated to be of essential science. Dr. Nelson came to this city from Canada, where he was foremost among the few men of influence and decided worth who took part against the Government in the late rebellien. His brother, Dr. Wolfred Nelson, who was also exiled, has recently returned to the prac- tice of his profession at Montreal. Dr. Robert Nelson was appointed President of the Provisional Republic, and as such signed the Declaration which was issued from this State. He has, however, ever since resided in this country, and is one of the most scientific surgeons among us. Retiring and stu- dious in his habits, he seeks neither notoriety nor pecuniary gain exclusively; but, what is farbetter, he deserves both. We trust he may find no rea- son to induce his return to the Prevince he has left. Arsaxny Asp Erie Raicroap.—We understand that our wealthy citizens and merchants are now stapping forward in this enterprise. Our friends at Boston offered us the use of their road, and up to the present time New-Yorkers have acted as if that were sufficient. Perhaps Buffalo Floar for New-York via Boston don't exactly set well in certain quarters. 0S A great outcry having been 1aised by the Dorr presses in Rhode Island against the Gevern- ment for keeping the persons accused of treason In prison so long, a special term of the Court was ordered for their benefit. When the time for trial came on, the prisoners asked that it might be put over till another term! The reason they gave was that their counsel, Messrs. Rantoul Atwell, wore not present. The trials were therefore postponed. id Mr. WaLrace, from Kentucky, lectures 5 evening at Concert Hall on the “Poetry of BE This is a theme peculiarly adapted ee aa powers, and we doubt not he will the City Pithige.

GREELEY McELRATH, Tribune Buildings, 160 Nassaustreet. Correspondence of The Tribure. WASHINGTON, December 21, 1842. The is nothing of consequence to be related to- day beyond what the reports of the House will give you. No vote, which can be looked upon as a test, bas yet been taken upon the Bankrupt bill, though there does to-day appear to be a doubt as to the result in the minds of many who have hitherto viewed the repeal as certain to take place. You will see that most of the dey was spent in the dis- cussion of motions in regard to this bill. The mas- ter had assumed a most singular variety of forms and positions, and a perfect entanglement of the question was accomplished before any thing like a debate took place upon the bill itself. The pre- vicus question was refused by a considerable ma- jority, and a disposition was manifested by many to amend the bill in the manner mentioned in my letter of yesterday. Others were disposed to in- clude corporations, while others wera for extend- ing the time—dming which present applicants might avail themselves of the benefits of the law— until next March, and others to a still more remote pericd. It is not improbable that the act may yet be saved in some form, though it certainly is high time for all who intend to avail themselves of this most just, humane and politic law, to take speedy steps to that end. I hope it will ever be borne in mind that a Whig Congress passed this act, by Whig votes, and that it is now assaiied by the Lo- co-Focos, or democrucy, as they call themselves, almost to a man. Many an honest man, who may be shut out from the benefits of this law for want of the means for paying the necessary fees, will fessions of Tammany Oraters, at Park meetings, uttering such fervid professions of exclusive love for the rights of the million, as have hitherto be- guiled the thousands of honest but deluded men who uphold the grinding aristocracy of the Dk- MocrAcY here and elsewhere. I hope that our friends will fight every inch of ground upen this question, both in the House and the Senate. Mr. Wise made speech to-day upon this sub- ject which did him no credit. Mr. Underwood, of Kentucky, who is one of the most manly and high-minded men in the House, spoke well against the Repeal, and gave a slight account of his own experience, M:. Hopkins—1'ulfer Hopkins—of Va. made a very windy harungue in favor of the bill. Mr. Arnold was thar,” on the spot, and enter- tained the House for a very long hour—saying a great many wise and witty and funny things, with- out regard to arrangement, or grammar, or Wal- ker. He is a perfect wild cat when he is once fairly on the floor for a speech, and screams at the top of his lungs ard until he is red in the face, while the House is kept in roars of merriment, sometimes with him and sometimes af him. He can say mere hard things of Capt. Tyler in fewer words than any man in the House. Neither does he spare ‘“modern democracy,” or the subter- raneans’’ either. He walked into Daniel Webster, whose name, Ly the way, is more offensive here than I can easily describe to you, and handled him very severely and roughly, too, for his Faneuil Hall speech. Mr. A. has much more zeal than discretion, ne- vertheless he is a good Whig and never flinches from his principles, and never speaks witheut stinging modern democracy most severely. The bill was debated until near four o'clock without result, and the house adjourned. I have observed that all the Locos are particu- larly jealous, now that the Whigs have control, Jest a few dollars be expended for clerk hire when com- mit.ees are overburdened with business. This is the case also in the Senate, though when they had control such aid was allowed whenever required. 1 am sorry to see that our Whig friends ellow them- selves to be dictated to insuch matters by men who, as a general rule, do no work in the Committees and leave it all for the majority to transact. They even had the meanness to oppose the allowance of a Secretary to the President of the Senate, at the last Session, although while R. M.

It is stated in the British Packet of the 5th ult. that Rivera, President of the Oriental Republic, has formed an alliance with the insurgents in the Brazilian pro- vince of Rio Grande. The Brazilian Charge d’Affaires at Montevideo immediately entered protest and demanded his passperts. The Packet does not vouch for the accuracy of the rumor.

Died, at Mohegan, Dec. 18, Joux Uxcas, aged 83 years, the last male of the royal live of te celebrated chief of that name. He will be interred, we understand, in the royal buryin ound of the Mobegans, on the piain. JA INorwich {Cona.) Cour. The death of this descendant of the celebrated Indian Chief is worthy of particular notice, at this time, when there are 20 few remnants in exisience of the warlike tribes which inhabited the New- England States, when the European Colonists first landed on their shores. One of the most noted of those tribes was that of the Mohegans, whose head quarters wera on the banks of the river Thames, in Connecticut. The small reservation of land which the remnant of the Tribe still retains lies in the town of Montville, half-way between Ner- wich and New-London, on a beactifel eminence, in sight of both of those cities of Connecticut, {say five or six miles from each.) Their numbers at present do not exceed, we believe, one hundred souls. The burial ground of the Sachems is in tbe town of Norwich and has beer frequently noticed by antiquaries. The distinguished warrior, Uncas, whose name has added so much celebrity to the Mohegan tribe, was originally a petty Sachem a Pequod by birth, a subject and tributary to Sassacus. When the English settlers made war upon the Pequods, Un- cas was unfriendly to this chieftain, but was kept in check by the talents and prowess of this formi- dable warrior. Of the English he entertained from the first a very respectful opisien, and finally united his forces and fortune with theirs. Upon the death of Sassacus, Uncas became the Sachem of the remaining Pequods, as well as of the Molie- gans. He claimed in this character a right to the territory comprising the most of that part of Cen- necticut esst of Connecticut River. From that time he became one of the most formidable Indian Chiefs in the Southern part of New-England. His authorizy extended not only over his own subjects but to other tribes West of the River. At the head of about 300 warriors he fought and defeated Miantinomah, Chief of the Narragansetts, a tribe inhabiting territories East of the Mohegans. Un- cas was a steady friend to the English Colonists, and in 1659 gave a deed of the town of Norwich to Thomas Leffingwell and his friends, in con- sideration of important services rendered him by Leffingwell in one of the wars between the Mas- hegans and Narragansetts. According to Doctor Dwight, Uncas died at an advanced age aad left his power and property to his children. Onecho, his eldest son, commanded a pariy of Mohegans in a war which the English carried on against the Narrazansetts in 1676. The family, however, saon declined in their im- portance by the general declension of their tribe and the sale of their property te the whites. CITY INTELLIGENCE.

Where is the man that hears me who can enter right into the feelings of one whose follies has so situated him that every face that once met him with a smile now {row ns on hin with contempt? Or where is the man, to be plain, that. from the pure charity of lis Leart, would extend to ine Lis hand, one year azo, and say thon art my brotber—thou hast transgressed, but 1 forgive you, and with me the past is forgotien. 1 am the man that will assist you in buileing up the wreck of your ruined hopes, and never hint at the cause of your misfortunes. To illustrate, in my feeble way this peiat, 1 will relate an incident which occurred with me in the summer of 1831. After the expiration of my ierm of imprisonment, 1 was treated with uncommon tenderness by the Chaplain at Sizg Sing, the Rev. Jobn Lucky, ard the arent, David L. Seymour, both being men that are what they pretend to he—exemplary and pinlanthropic. "through their interposition, I was brought in among many of my for- mer friends. One of these friends, an estimab'e man, (a merchant in Pine street) fully admitted me to the privileges of hiscounting-room. ‘L'hrough his agency with some of the jawyers in Wall-street, i obtained considerable employ- ment as a copyist. 1 occupied oze of the desks in Lis of: fice, and hezan to flatter myself that the foundaiin of my retreive was laid. Ina few days, another geotieman, (a stranger to me,) who belonged te theconcern, returned from the country. He noticed a stranger seated at one of the desks, and 1nquired of his partner who it was’ He was told by him that ‘1 was formerly ene of his clerks—that 1 bad been unfortunate; bat that, by kind treatment, I might be restored, and that be had determined to help me 2ioag in carrying out my good resolutions,” and, among other things, mentioned my name. This was enough. When It was known to him who IT was, he objected immediately 10 my occupying one of his desks, with tae remark that *f how should he feel if he bad occasion to mention my name before any of his {iiends, who knew my true history 2? These circumstances became known to me, and I am sure the Court and all who bear me can to sume extent realize my sensations. This is not re. lated with any other motive than te convey a faint idea of what is to be unierzoze by one that falleth by the way,’ as I have, and who may be endeavoring 10 raise bimself to anu upright position. I’bave often in my own mind thought that no enterprise in which the humane lovers of their fel low-men could engaze is more deserving their considera: tion than to adopt scme effectual way to aid, assist and en: conrage those poor, uncared-for men that have come out of a prison with good resclutions, but, alas! who after seeing how coldiv the world in general looks upon them, fall back into such conditions as make their situations doably deplo- rable. A short time since T was at Philadelphia; Idroppedinto a pubiic house ia that city calied the Head Quarters; I was enjoying myself as well as others, whena man did n:t then know asked me to walk with bini to a table close by, on which lay a daily journal, which be opened and turned to the date, Jaly 17 cr 18, 1356. "Then he pointed to these words, recorded in writing: Willlum D. Gray, the campanion of Rickard P. tobinson, bas been sentenced to the State Prison for the term of five years,” and then fin. ished his tender interview with me by telling me that **I was that man, and if I did not absent myself immediately he would expose me to the company.” 1 left, not abraptly, however, with this consolati~n. that gentlemen of his grade were hot few in this my native land.

The striking out of the whole appropriation for the Coast Survey, which was done to-day, was hardly contemplated by many a few days ago, but it passed by a decided vote. I do not think, how- ever, that any considerable portion of Congress will oppose the continuance of the Survey undera new organization, or by the officers of the Army or Navy. Indeed, a resolution was adopted after the passage of that bill to-day instructing a Com: mittee to inquire into the expediency of assigning this work te the Navy or War Department.— Throughout the whole of this matter the House, from the nature of the case, has been obliged to actin the dark in consequence of the want of fa- miliarity of members with such matters, but there was sufficient evidence to satisfy them that the work might be more economically and expeditious- ly conducted under other direction. In the Senate, Mr. Benten repeated egain the same speech which he now delivers every morning, with slight variations, upon the subject of the Treaty. The occasion was the offering of a reso- lution calling for the correspondence relative to Oregon Territory. Benton will probably die of the Treaty, unless Mr. Calhoun or some one else will reply to him. He not only writes over half the Globe newspaper every day, upen this subject, but he has a spasm every morning in the Senate Chamber. The object of it all is probably to hit Mr. Calhoun towards whom he is in no wise ami- able or well intentioned. A debate sprung up and continued all day until 4 o’clock, without any result, upon the matter of Gen. Jackson's fine. Upon this subject Mr. Allen of Olio suffered most dreadfully, as I judge from the alarming noise which he made. I believe that this ‘young Demosthenes’ spoke four times upon the subject, in a tone audible in most parts of the Capitol but as there was but one single idea in the four harangues, it is not necessary to describe them. Mr. Crittenden of Ky. pricked the Obie Senator in his usual sarcastic manner, until he roared again like a wounded Buffalo. Mr. Bu- chanan also spoke in faver of the bill. [t was finally made the special order of the day for Tues- day next, when the Senate adjourned. It is strange that the Locos after allowing this matter to remain uadisturbed during the many years of their ascendancy in Congress, are now so clamorous in their demands that justice be done the character of Gen. Jackson. I can see no other cause for this suddenly awakened zeal thar that they are running low in means of making political capital, and catch at the smallest thing that offers. It should be remembered that they voted against their own bill for this purpose, at the last session, because an amendment was made to it, declaring that its passage was not to be taken as a censure upon Judge Hall. Without such a proviso no Whig will vote for it. MANHATTAN. 2 mi Correspondence of The Tribane, FHILADELPHIA, Dec, 28, 1842-—F. M, We have now clear avd cold weather.

In SENATE, to-day, Mr. BucBANAN presented a memorial of Mrs. Reeside, widow of James Reeside, deceased, asking to be refunded $188,000 loaned by her husband to the Post Office Depar:- ment. On motion of Mr. McRoBERTs, after brief re- merks on the importance of the work, the Com- mittee on Commerce was instructed to inquire into the expediency of making eppropriations for the improvement of the navigation of the Missis- sippi. The credentials of Messrs. ‘Linx and SzvIER, Senators from Mizzouri and Arkansas for the term commencing on the 4th of March, 1843, were pre- sented by their colleagues, Messrs. BENTON and Fuvrtoxn. The resolution of Mr. Linw, inquiring of the President in regard to the nature and evtent of the informal communications between the Secretary of State and the British Minister during the late ne- gotiations on the subject of the claims of the two Governments to the country west of the Rocky Mountains, why this subject was not included in the treaty, &ec., after some remarks by Messrs. 1 a Liss, ArcaER, Kixc and BExTOX 23 to the pro- priety of publishing the ioformation at present, was adopled. Mr. BarTon'S resolution inquiring of the Presi. dent whether the Britisk Minister has mada any propesition to the Government in regard to the. assumption of State debts, was adopted: Yeas 35, Navs 12. The bill authorising the relinquishment of the 16th section, granted for the use of schools and the entry of other lands in lieu thereof, wag plssed. Several resolutions instituting inquiries by the Committees were adopted. The resolution to refund the fine of Gen. Jack. son was taken up and a preliminary debate of some interest arose, in which Messrs. Lixy, Bronasgg ard ALLEN warmly advocated its passage and jus. ufied the conduct of Gen. Jackson in this case, and Messrs. BAYARD and CRITTENDEN expressed their willingness to vote for the bill if so modified that their support of it conld not be construed into a sanction of the principles on which Gen. Jack. son acted. Mr. B. introduced the pamphlet re. cently published by A Kentuckian” on this sub ject, and wished the resolution, with this pamph. let, referred to the Committee en the Judiciary, that the subject might be fully investigated. The further consideration of the resolution wag pestponed till Tuesday next. And the Senate adjourned. In the House, on motion of Mr. KexyEDY, of Md. the biil from the Senate authorizing the changes of the names of the American ship Westchester of New-York to the Atlantic, was taken up asd with- cut objection read a third time and passed. Several unsuccessful attempts were made to get at business out of order. Mr. FiLLsoRe said he had received urgent ap. peals from the other end of the Capitol and trom the Departments (both being out of funds) to pass the Appropriation bill this week. He therefors moved to go into Committee of tho Whole to take up this bill to-day, as Friday aud Saturday hed been set apart for private bills. A resolution of Mr, F.'s to terminate debate on the bill at 2 o'clock having been adopted, the House went into Committee of the Whele vo the Union and resumed the consideration of the Civil and Diplomatic Appropriation bill, the ques- tion pending on the motion of Mr. FILLMORE, to reduce the item for Coast Survey from $50,000 to £20,000. Mr. BURNELL weat into a spirited defence of the Survey, showing its immense importance to the whole country in enabling the Seaman to avoid those shoals and sand banks which had been the ruin of numerous vessels and the grave of marys hardy tar, and referred to some of the discovenes of this Survey to that of three channels at New. York, to the ascertaining the actual distance of that City trom Sandy Hook to be eighteen miles as was before supposed, &c.—and advecated the cen tinuance of the work, not only as a matter of great national policy and interest bat of actual economy. Mr. C. J. InGErseLL considered the survey of the highest importance, and Mr. Hassler the fit- test man in the country to superintend it; but thought it should be done by officers of our Army and Navy under his direction, who would thus be trained and qualified to conduct it when Mr. Hass- ler’s age should prevent his Yartber service. In this manner he theuzht at least $25,000 per an- num might be saved, and the survey bo conducted with equal vigor and success. Mr. MALLORY (Chairman of the Select Com- mittee on the survey) referred at length to the evidence before that Committee, and to its investi gations to prove Mr. Hasseer’s incompetency fur the superintendence. He considered it a work of vast importance to the navigating interests of the country, and thought it might be conducted with far more ecenomy and dispatch by officers of the army or navy. But 300 miles of a line of coast of 3000 miles had been surveyed in a period ef ten years, and he complained that the charts, among others of the channel at New-York, discovered seven years ago, had never been published. Mr. Wisk said they were now in the course ef publication and would be out in six weeks. The hour of two having arrived, the Committes proceeded to vote. Mr. GiLMER modified his amendment so as to reduce the item to $10,000; agreed to. The whole item was then, on motion of Mr. Gw1x, stricken cut; Ayes 78, Noes 64 An amendment of Mr. TALLMADGE te appropriate $20,600 for the publication of the account of tha Exploring Expedition was adopted. The bill was then reported to the House, whers the previous question was applied. Mr. Gwis's amendment, striking out all the appropriation for the survey, was concurred in: Yeas 119; Nays 84. Mr. TirLiNGuasT's amendment (given above) was non-concurred in. tant amendments were made. The bill was then passed, and the House ad- journed.

e——— gy For The Tribune. ODE FOR CHRISTMAS. BY 7. J. OTTERSOK. Niour o'er Palestine was waning, Silence siumbered on her hills, Save the zephyt’s sweet complaining, Answering to the murmuring rills Streaming from the vault of glory, Starlight quivered in the air, Failing, as in ages hoary Mauna fell et Israel's prayer. Mars kad left his bloody station, Janus closed his battle-shrine, And through all the vast creation Bloemed the olive and the vine: In their sheaths the swords were rasting, Spears and bucklers lined the wall, And no more, for murder thirsting, Rang the brezen trumpets call. Shepherds on Judea’ highlands Wakefu!l watched their sleeping charge, Marking oft the sky's light-islands Sink below its western marge; With a wondering, silent pleasure, Gazed they upward from the sod, When, out-boundirg from the ezure, Burst the blazing Star of God. Swiftly sped the flaming stranger— Planets at its glance grew dim— Till it rested o'er the manger Of tho Babe of Bethlehem. Then from God's eternal dwelling Came the regent Gabriel, To the fear-struck shepherds telling Where to seek Immanuel. In the ether Seraphs hovered— Seraphs who in Heaven adored— And, till mern the orient covered, Sang the advent of the Lord. Upward, upward, slowly gliding, Angel voices echoed then, ““Glary be to God abiding, Peace on earth, and love to men.” Ages o'er the Earth have thundered Since the Star of Mercy shone, And in place of few who wondered, Myriada bave its blessings known. Stiil to Him who shields us nightly With the shadow of His wing, May our love still burn as brightly Ag the Star that hailed Him King. For The Tribune. Cropital Papishments. Mr. Editor: The subject of Capital Punisb- ments, you say, ought to be discussed. I agree with you in the opinion, and would, therefore, re- quest admission into your columns for a few re- marks suggested by an extraordinary specimen of reasoning which you gave us, a few days since, frem the Rochester Democrat. There is a natural fond: ness in the human mind for any thing which bear: the show of logic; and, ia accommodation to this feeling, the most wretched fallacies sometimes gai credit, by being presented in an imposing logical form, especially if accompanied by a parade of statistical tables. ‘Surely, figures cannot lie,” ir is said; and yet the most pernicious falsehoods may arise from their false position, or by inverting the order of their results. In the article referred to, wa are presented with tables showing that in Bel gium, France and Prussia there has been, for suc- cessive years, a gradual diminution in the number of executions for murder,—and cerresponding to this, pari passu, a like gradual diminution of the number of convictions for the same crime.— «t Hence we see,” says the writer, that the de- crease of Capital Punishments, instead of cuusing any increase of the crime of murder, has been at- tended with the opposite results.” This is cer tainly very strange logic. The fallacy is of so peeuliar a kind, that it has no name in any of our elementary treatises on the art of reasoning. To use a vulgarism, however, it may be cailed “a putting the cart before tho horse,” or in other words, substituting the cause for the effect. The conclusion is, of course, right wrong. On the same principle, wo might contend for the aboli- tion of all laws for the punishment of crime, by means of statistical tables, showing that the latter has regularly diminished, in exact proportion to the steady execution of the former. Teo apply the argument of this admirable logician to a case pre- eisely similar, it might be said that stealing has not increased with the diminution of convictions and imprisonments for that offence,—therefore, imprisonment for theft ought to be abolished. In fact, it is hard to see how a contrary result could take place, or by what scheme the convictions and executions eould increase, while the crime itselt diminished. It is a bad cause which needs to be upheld by varied and contradictery arguments, and this is preéminently the cause with the advocacy of the abolition of Capital Punishments. At one time, we are told that the punishment is sanguinary and cruel at anether, that it has not the same terror for the mind as imprisonment for life. Again: the Age is too refined and humanized any longer to tolerate this relic of barbarism. It was neces- sary, (it is reluctantly coaceded,) in a more savage and licentieus state of society, such as existed in the Jowish Theocracy, but now its day has gone by;—men have become wiser than the Bible,— more humane than their Maker, (unless He may be supposed to have shared in the universal pro- gression of ideas) ;—~Mr. O'Sullivan is a more pro- found legislator than Moses, althouzh assisted by the wisdom of the Almighty ;—the bloody lynchers of Alabama, of Vicksburg and St. Louis, with the lmost weekly homicides of New-York and Phila- delphia, are far more civilized than those scmi- barbarous Jews, with whom murder was so rare and astonishing a crime, that the whole Nation, from Dan 10 Beersheba, arose to take vengeance for one single case, (Judges xix. and xx.) At another time, and perhaps by the same reasoner, we are gravely informed that murders are most alarmingly on the increase, and that this, in some strange and unexplained way, is caused by the zug Sous of Capital Punishments. Now, Bootie n ao Jeagise and trample under versal sain Se barism, the almost uni- SAEs CAC experience of mankind in all otbog 3} Ey past ages of the world,—or, in pretation of the vox Dei in the ancient Patriarchal law s—and again consistently asked to fail down ands iii is assu nd worship what ment of the sh 20 populs, or public senti- to be, for we eatury. We say assumed yo Are convinced that even in the e il hi '0ply by the continual reitera. tion that such is the public sentiment Vitor of that sober research and deliberation whi hh y matter 80 important demands, —a mode eh a this wise aad thinking generation hay yw ich opinions manufactured for it, which te: had would never have thought of. We are sot at how this thing is managed in this Country. The people are told by some officious demagoguas interested partisans, that such a measure is ge. manded by the popular voice. This is repeated, until, in the absence of all opposition cn the part of those who are inattentive to sucii manceuvres, it gains a partial credence. Men then begin to be in favor of it, for no reason of their own, founded on the merits of the case, but because it is the pub- lic sentiment. In respect to this very matter, how phat. common is it to find persons who do not hesitate to declare themselves opposed but pepular opinion, say they, demands it, and the law should, there- fore, be so modified as tobe in accordance. These again contribuse, in [beir turn, to awell the current, and thus the people are cheated, or rather made to cheat themselves, into the support of a doctrine which, if left to their ow they would have repudiated with contempt. No doubt nine-tenths of the thinking people cf this State are opposed to the popular election of Jus- tices of the Peace, and have been so from the be- ginning and yet, precisely in this manner was the measure carried and sustained, because each oue, though individually hosule, was yet willing mag- nanimously to yield his own opinions to this spu- rious and self-created popular veice. These manu- facturers of public sentiment always put me in mind of Burke's comparison of the grasshoppers, who imagine that because they make the most noise, they are the only inhabitants of the field, and that, therefore, of course they are many in number, and not the little, shriveled, meager, hopping, though loud and troublesome insects of the hour.” But even admi:ting that it exists, there can be no greater mistake than to suppese that laws should follow, instead of elevating and controlling a vitia- ted public sentiment, which ought to be corrected, rather than encouraged to worse and bolder de- mands. Laws are always better than the people, because when besed on sound and well tesied pre- cedents they represent not only the experience, but the wisdom of mankind abstracted {rom the ephe- merzl caprices and corrupt influences of the mo- ment. Instead then of bending and sinking down to popular sentiment, they should rather aim by a rigid execution, to elevate this ever fluctuating principle ts their own high and permanent stand- ard. There are many strange things at the present day, but perbaps nothing more so, than ibis singu- lar fact, that the very men who on almost all sub- jects ar- so ready to despise what we have styled the vox humanitatis or permanent Reason of the race, are ever the loudest in singing hosannas te the voz populi of the moment; even although in so doing they are often the wretched dupes of their own clamors, cheated by the echo of their own foolish voices. There is no more convincing proof that the de- claration of Genesis ix, Gth, is a Statute and net an unmeaning prediction, thun the fact that it was thus interpreted by the unenimous concurrence and practice of the whole ancient world. Philos ophers, legislators and poets all speak of 1t as derived from primeval tradition, and as coming from a source transcending th: memory of history. [tis the very precept which Aristotle produces (and with a striking resemblance in some of his terms to the language of the Bible,) as an exam- ple of what he styles unwritten law, uot pecuiias to Athens, or Macedon, or Persia, but coextensive with mankind and found among all nations civil- ized and savages. (Rbet. 1,13.) The ancient Poet —better expounders of the natural sentiments of mankind than the philosophers—ever speak of ii #s law having something peculiarly sacred and holy about it, and differing in this respect from all otiter statutes—thereby intimating that special Di- vine origin, of which we have so precise an account in the Bible. The proof of this by re- ferences, wouid demand an extended essay, and we cannot enter upon it here. Allusion is merely made to it, because we really think that notwith- standing our claim to make our own laws—ave, and to break them toe when we please—the de- claration of God in the Bible, the voice of all an- tiquity, and the uniform course of legi-lation among mankind, ought to have some weight in the decision of this question—at least equal to that ot the late enactment of the legislature of the en- lighted State of New-Hampshire. We cannot avoid aliuding to one more argument in the article which suggested these remarks. Ti is said that Capital Punishment bad become so odious in the State last mentioned, that it was al- ready virtually abolished as no jury ceuld be found that would kang a convict.” We never beard before that hanging was any partof the dary of a jury. In every other state, except New- Hampshire, that office devolves upon the Sheriff The jury are sworn to decide according to evi- dence all matters of fact lawfully brought before them; and it certainly seems to be very remarka- hle reasoning, by which an increase of the crime of perjury, is made an argument for abolishing the natural punishment of murder. In these days of ultra radicalism, there are but few laws or institu- tions that are not called in question, however ven- erable they may be in years, or whatever amount of experience may have contributed to their es- tablishment. Some gravely contend that treason should not be punished because it would be perse- cution for the expression in acts of political senti- ments koxestly exteriained, however subversive they may be of established authorities. Some would abolish all laws against blasphemy, as incon- sistent with the glorious right of free discussiv=. Another class believe in the equal distribution of property, and of course, must be conscientiously opposed to the cruelty of punishing men for theft, or taking what belongs to them in that state of nature, the rights of which Seciety has usurped. Some regard what they facetiously style the moral sentiments of mankind, as indicated and controlled by certain formations of the cranium. These of course, would not only do away with the gallows, but would convert all our State Prisons and Peni- tentiaries into lunatic asylums, or hospitals for the cure of organic defects. And finally, a class by no means contemptible in point of numbers, bave gone entirely through, and having reached the Ul- tima Thule of political wisdom, conclude that all government is tyranny, and all law wnlawful.— "Now all these have as good grounds for asserting their ight to commit perjury, as those who doubt the propriety ot Capital Punishments for murder; and this right they may exercise, wheuever a case arises in which their wisdom dificrs from the wis- dom of the State, based on the experience of man- Kind in all past ages. In the contemplation of such a state of things, we cannot help seri- ously asking—Where are we, and whither are we drifting? If the collected wisdom of the race is so weak, so fallible, so little to be trusied, we should really like to know what dependence can be placed on private judgement when formed in defiance of it? The claim is suicidal: the rew- soning stultities itself. This surely cannot be that law of progress ebout which so much neise is made. The true advance of the race is only se- cured by building slowly and cautiously ox some established foundation, by modestly adding our steck of experience to the wisdom of the past, by conpeciing the present and the future with the nges which, nithough gone by, yet still pertain to our mysterious corporate being—not by cutting ourselves off from the common life of humanity and severing ell those relations that bind us to tho generations of our forefuthers. True progress is ever steady, ever anchored with a firm hold upon past acquisitions, which, although rendering its motion slow and equable, yet prevent its shooting off like the hissing recket, er the noisy fire-sarpent, dazzling the sight with its pernicious glare, and ieaving behind it only a deeper and more palpabls abscurity. It has been said of late, that the tendency of the Spirit of the Age is to individualism.

due 10 the past that many years of the most care- ful discussion should precede so great a chanze in criminal jurisprudence. This argument derives! weight frem the consideration that the step once taken, can never, in all probabiltiy be recalled at least until some sweeping revolution has buried all our political institutions in the dust, and some other structure arises our of their ruins. Facilis descensus Averni; Sed revocare gracum, superasque evadere ad auras, licc opus, bic labor est.” Above all, sbould we suspect this sickly and sen- timental cry of humanity. It may be regarded as rather a singular fact, that this humane public sentiment is very apt to develope itself at some of the mast ferocious periods of a Nation's history. It was, we think, a measure much talked of in some of the worst times of the French Revolution; and, among curselves, its popularity seems to be in ex- act proportion te the prevelence of murder and Lynch Law.
