We referred, a few days ago, to the bad feel ing which existed in the House of Representa tives, and the following abstract of the debate on the Harbor Bill, on Monday last, will show something of the spirit which now prevails: Mr. Clay read from a former report an esti mation of the sum requisite to effect all the ob jects already surveyed. Mr. Beaty reminded him of certain liberal appropriations for Alabama, and inquired whe ther he had been equally active in opposing them? Mr. Mercer commented with severity upon the statement made in the report quoted by Mr. Clay, and denietl that it had ever entered into the mind of any human being, that all the works surveyed were to be completed by the General Government. Many of them were for State ob jects—others for undertakings of private com panics—others had prevented the waste of mo ney in impracticable undertakings, and the Go vernment had engaged in only four of all the objects surveyed. Mr. Clay replied, and still insisted that there were enough works already surveyed to occu py the Government for the next fifty years. Mr. Beaty reminded him of the large grants of public lands to the State of Alabama, and asked how much of that land had been brought Mr. Hanneg^n avowed his determination to vote for laying this biJl on the table, should the present item be negatived. He also reminded Mr. Clay, of the grants to Alabama and the ap propriation for Savannah river. Mr. Pierce, of New Hampshire, moved the previous question, but withdrew the motion at the request of \Ir. Wayne, who explained on the subject of Savannah river. Mr. Pierce then renewed his motion for the previous question, but it was promptly negativ ed—Ayes 54 Noes 86. Mr. Dickinson, of Tennessee, insisted that the ”Ote upon this bill was to be viewed as a test ’Ote upon continuing the system of internal im provements, and invoked the South to support their principles. Mr. Mehcer denied that the veto doctrine had the remotest connection with the present vote. The President had more than once sanctioned this very appropriation. Mr. Wise inquired what amount of money it would require to complete all the works already surveyed. Mr. Mercer repeated in substance his former explanation. Mr. Wise complained of this as an evasion of his inquiry. He did not care if it was the fag end of the most disgraceful session of Con gress that had ever been held, he would not consent that such a bill should pass w ithout an imadversion. The men of the South had not stood by their colours, and he now called upon them to take the constitutional ground for which they had always contended. He made frequent allusion to the approaching Presidential con test, and addressed successively the delegation of several different States, demanding their vote in view of that event. Mr. Clayton addressed the House with much warmth, threatening nullification, should the system of Internal Improvements be perseve red in. Mr. Beardsley taking Mr. Wise upon his own ground, that this was to be a test vote on the 1 residential question, called upon all who were rn favor of the Administration to vote for the bill, and all opposed to it to vote against it. The yeas and nays would then show how matters stood in regard to the next Administration. Mr. Jones adverted to the sudden change ot Mr. Beardsley’s course on this bill, as it was but two days since he voted against it. He ani madverted on the practice of log-rolling, and argued to shew that the law of 1824 did not re quire the present appropriation. He concluded with some pretty plain allusions to nullification. Mr. Wise deprecated all tricks upon travel lers, and protested agairpt this vote being made a tes$ question as to the Presidency. He had meant to designate it as a test question only in reference to the system.of internal improve ments. The real difficulty in the House had been, whether the National Republicans or the New Yorkers should take the responsibility ol defeating the bill. Mr. Bynum regretted these sectional allusions, and hoped the frehds of economy and the Con stitution, wherever found, would vote againsl the bill. Mr. Beardsley replied to Messrs. Wise and Jones, explaining the grounds of his change o] opinion, and closed by reminding Mr. Jones thai a reproach on that subject should, last of all have come from a gentleman who one day de clared himself, on personal examination, that a certain candidate was entitled to a seat in the House, and the next day brought in a repor declaring that it was impossible to discover tc whom the seat belonged. [This retort produced much sensation anc great merriment in the House.] The question was then put on concurring ir the amendment for surveys, and decided b> yeas and nays, as follows: yeas 103, nays 87. The arrival yesterday of the ship Josephine from Ireland, was quite an unexpected circum stance. This^ship formerly sustained a high re putation, and was considered one of the fastes sailors out of this port.

The v mi nation of Mr. Butler was confirmed with''-’ a division. The rejection of Mr. Taney was expect a matter of course. His action in the re:rc of the Deposited, and the shallow reasons V he gave for that course, made it necessarv condemn him by this negative vote of :cr It was also necessary that the contumely ed to the Senate by the President, in withnob ing his nomination until this late period, she. be rebuked.

t g"" 1 Public .Mention! IS respectfully solicited by the subscriber, to an in valuable preparation, the merits of which have been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted testimony DR. RELFE’S 03* Botanical Drops! are every year increasing their long established repu tation. They have outlived many rival Drepar&tions, and are continually gaining upon public confidence. The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he reditary predisposition in the patient, and generally appear under the various and distressing shapes of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony's Fire, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Fool and Ob stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and Venereal Taint. In the last mentioned condition of the system, the Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus pr^*’cnt the patient from entailing the seeds of an he reditary disease on his offspring. Dr. Relfe's Botanical Drops are successfully used in cases of violent eruptions after the measles-red blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruptions on the skin-and other diseases of the external surface; and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics known, to free the system from humors. A physician of eminence, who had witnessed the ef ficacy of this article, had the candor recently to ack nowledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the best medicine known, for the complaints for which it is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at the head o. the whole class of such remedies.

THOSE who would retain or restore these desirable persona! advantages, are assured that no compo sition can be-obtained superior tc the_ _ BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE. This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every aspect, and has, for many-years past, given universal satisfaction wherever it has been used. The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and jther deleterious ingredients, which too frequent v nter the composition of tooth powders in common me, and it wh.tens the enamel of the teeth w ithout doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad nired powder, by purifying the mouth and preventing he accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre -entive of the Tooth Ache. The Dentrifice removes liscolorations, and restores the beautiful native white ness of the enamel. As its application braces and lengthens ihe Gums, it secures to them their healthy nd florid hue, and, by removing all offensive foreign accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural weetness of the breath.

By the use of les9 than a box, Mrs Stowell has been cured of a corn on each foot, which had been exceedingly troublesome and painful for years, and I think it butjuatice to your invaluable preparation to add, (for the encouragement of those who, owing to repeated disappointments in the various remedial! re sorted to, have finally despaired of a cure,; that you: Plaster cured her corns, after trying other highly re commended remedies to no purpose; and what in creases mv confidence in the superiority of your plan ter, is the fact, that it has been used by several of my neighbors with equally good success (Signed) Seth Stowell, Keeper of the Toll house, South Boston Bridge.

H. P LED. Baltimore, August, I82S. [>oe*or 0. K. P. l.: a, New London, Conn. Di:.\n Sir.—It now upwards of twenty year* th.t i 1 lave used your New London Bdi ms Pills in my fami y, and always found them an efficient purgative in al nost every description of disease, and believe they s.» red many along doctor’s bill by their early and timely ise. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary n their operation and effects until a few months past; nd having, siuce then, been sadly disappointed in eve y instance of using them, 1 began to conclude that you lad made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac ure to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this mpredion, I accidentally saw an advertisement of GUN in a New Yorfc newspaper, designating spurious mitations from your own manufacture, by having your VBITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions, i nd that in no instance were the imitations signed with ien and ink, although a perfect copy in every other espact Finding those l had without this test, I be- an to suspect that all was not fair in medicine, as yell as i» politics, and called at several of our apothe aries for your pills, with your written signature. I iund many without this test, but none with it, until 1 ame to the Messrs. Keerls*, who assured me they had lem direct from you. 1 procured a box, and on using s lem, found the same effects from them 1 had always i sperienccd, and am so much rejoiced on finding my- self in possession of a medicine f so highly prize, lhat i that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this j information. (Xj* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu- rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser ha9 only to examine the bill of directions covering each box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im- mediately under ray printed name, they are genuine, and prepared by me; but if orlt the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided. S. H. P LEE, New London, Conn. Dec. 1823.__ HYGEIANISM. rfIHE following testimonials of the superior efficacy JL of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of our diseases, speak in a language which must carry conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:— Brown Unlversitx, Dec. 25, 1833; To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege table Universal Medicines, for the State of Rhode Island. Sin—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a brief statement of a cure, which, I think, I received from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the same the more cheerfully; because thereby, perhaps, I maybe useful to some of my fellow-men, who may be afflicted with a similar disease. My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition may be explicitly under j stood, I state, in connexion with the relation of the cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep tember, 1832, 1 caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my cough soon abated, and apparently, 1 was regaining I my health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be* i fore in usual health. L found myself bleeding ::t the j lungs. I had not, to my knowledge, received any hurt or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut ed. 1 spat blood, occasionally, for four dayp; ii left me with some fever, pain in the breast, veiy 'it'leao petite, and withal, very weak A tew weeks determined tnar l was in a aeonne received the attention of the most skilful Physicians, who often seemed to check the progress of the dis ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. But j reb*pse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower than the preceding, Seemed to baffle all human skill, r.nd warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus, months after the first attack, a tubercle” [sr.tr.ll ul cor] broke in the Inngs, after which 1 spat blood, one I d Ly. 1 continued to decline tv;omonths longer, when I obtained the Hygeian Medicines. 1 h:.d now bevCi enable to sit up whole dry, for fou: month- unu n half.
