From tie Nat. Intel. Of Saturday Nay4.
We have arrived at the last day OF the
present session of Congress, as to any
measures which have not yet passed the
House in which they originated; the three
last days of the session being, by the new
rule, devoted, in each house, to bills
which have passed in the other House. A
large proportion of the business which has
originated in the House Of Representatives
is yet undecided, and must lie over TO the
mex. session, The compensation bill,
which occupied three days of the time OF
the House. (sit,ing eight hours each day,)
and which is yet in suspense, has defeated
many ills. The bill was yesterday laid
Oh the table, and may be considered as
one OF those LAID over 10 the next session.
The subject of Notifications, and the con.
tracts under them, have also occupied
much time, and been the means of pre-
venting the consideration of many impor-
tant propositions. The appropriations for
those objects, were yesterday passed by
an overwhelming majority in the House of
Representatives-and much other BUSH
ness was afterwards transacted.

Sickness at observation-disclosures from Cai-

as being in truly distressing situation. The fever

were then transacting their official business beyond
the limits of the wn-the post Office had removed

short, says the Claiborne paper, the town is almost
abandoned al all kinds of commercial business at

Of the yellow fever. DR.. BroDaugh, president OF

governor and all the l. .ncipal inhabitants, are said
10 have left the city.
The above unwelcome news came by the U. D.

we'd on the lst ms. Since which, it has been repor-
ted, that boat which touched at Mobile Point,
brought report that DR.. b. had died.

dressed to the people and army OF Hayt has been
published. In this document President Boyer has
saken compendous view OF the recent revolu.
eionary events, which preceded and appears pro-
euced the death of Gen Roman, who though
acknowledged to be btaye man, was considered a
dangerous one, as regarded the political tranquility

1t is stated that in Philadelphia there are Il pa-
ces Of public worship, which will accommodate
10000 worshippers. Population estimated al
100000 According to this calculations, $4,000 per-
sons living in the city and suburbs who could

In the same paper it is stated that there are now
in Philadelphia nearly double the number OF places
of worship that there were in London IN the. yea,
