L
he bill to increase the duties on cer~
tain imported articles, was rejected ia
the Senate, after three or four hours de-
bate. Though the particular motion By
which the bill was lost, was carried by
q single vote only, we have reason to BE-
Iieve that the majority would have been
greater, had The question been . direc.
one upon the merits Of the bill. Seyc-
raj gentlemen, we understand, one OF
two Of them from the North, who voted
against psstponing tbcsbiII, would have
voted against its enactment, either in the
shape in which it passed The House of
Representatives, or as il was proposed
to be modified by the committee Of the
Senate.
The bill laying Duties on certain
Sales at Auction has passed the House
OF Representatives, and is now before
the Senate. We have, already stated
ahat she amount of the proposed dusy on
Sales OF Foreign Manufactures Of Wool
lens, Cottons, Sc IS fixed at FIVE per
cent. We have now to add, that on
the motion of Gen. Smith, the proposed
dutics on sales Of Groceries, &c. was
reduced from two to one per cent, ard

Presideni. for their pardon; but inexo-

LATER FROM ENGLAND.
Since Our last, we have two arrivals
from Liverpool, bringing London
dates as late as the 23d March.
They, however, furnish very little mat
ter Of interest from any part of England,
the papers being almost wholly filled up
with electioneering cabals, and account
of trials, in several OF the counties, for
insunectiopary and reasonable practices.
The news from France and Spain, in
these papers, is not SO late as NC have
already received, direct from those coun-
tries.
Il he elections, it is said, will terminate,
in adding several new members to the
old opposition party.
A Liverpool paper, of 25th March,
says "a verdict OF gully, was yesterday
returned against Sir Francis Burdett, at
Leicester"
The province Of Maracaibo, has re-
volted in favor of the Patriots.
1t does not appear, that the Patriots
have advanced beyond the Apure. A
mother evidence OF this the prudence, as
well as patriotism OF Bolivar.
The Spanish Minister in London has
notified his counuymen of the decfee
which allows all Spaniards, absent on
account Of political opinions, to ieturn
home. More than 10000 Spaniards
were in exile.
Many Clergy in Spain are among the
foremast in the cause OF the Constitu-
ton.
Madrid, Mareh ~ This day the
Grand Inquisitor received note III the
Kings own hand notifying him mat his

sition no longer existed. The Inguisp-
ion at Barcelona had been burnt by the
mob.

reading of the bill for the tariff Mr.

"The Tariff bill passed the Housa
this afternoon by a majority of thirteen.
with but lew amendments Of any impur.
tance. What its fate will be in the SEN
ate is uncertain. II is said that Mr..
King, OF New York, as well as the
Massachusetts, New Hampshire and
Vermont Senators. are decidedly against
the system. The other two bills remain,
to be discussed and decided OH. The
probability is they will both pass the
House, as parts OF the same sy stem.
Nothing new has taken place in re-

The bin for laying duties ON certaifs

jecfed in that body, by small majority,
A motion has been made, however, ior
a reconsideration Of the vote and it is
not improbable that il will prevail. Sew.

would, it is understood, have voted in
