THE UNITED STATES.

LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY MORNING.

The splendid packet-ship George Washington, Cap-
tain Burrows, arrived at this port yesterday, in six-
t..en days, bringing New York Papers to the 9th,
being six days later than previously brought to
England by the South America. The transient ship
General Parkhil, Captain Hoyt, arrived also the same
tide, with Papers to the kith.
These papers bring intelligence that the Tariff ques-
tion had excited some warm, but not definite discussion
$n the Senate. The House of Representatives seemed
snore occupied with Mr. QuiNcT ADAMS than any-
thing else. That 'gentlemen in the course of defending
himself, on account of some charges made against
him by the Member for Virginia, quarrelled with the
reporters who would not report his speeches, and hence
there had arisen a question of privilege, of which, and
=lost of the other discussions, the journals speak as
the " fooleries of Congress."

The young gentlemen of Boston had given a grand
dinner to Mr DICKENS. Great preparations were
making at New York for his reception, and for the
Dicamarat Ball; he and our frtend Mr QUINCY ADAMS
seein to divide between them the interest of the whole
of the Union.
