The Senate, according to the order of

poned from time to time to this day:
Resolued, That appropriations CT ter

should be made to those states IN whose
favor 10 such appropriations have been
made, corresponding in just proportion
with those heretofore made to other
states in the Union.
Rescued, That the foregoing resolu-
ton be referred to select committee,
With instructions to report bill pursuant
thereto.
Mr.. LLOYD, rose and addressed.the
Senate about an hour and half in sup
port Of HE right, the equity, and the ex-
pediency OF the object proposed in the
resolution; when, not having concluded
the remarks which he wished to offer on
the subject, he asked the indulgence of
the Senate to be permitted to conclude
them o-morrov; and thereupon, =
The resolution was, on motion OF MIR.
BAHaoua, laid on the table.
The Senate took up the bill directing
that the road authorized to be laid out
from the Ohio to the Mississippi river,
shall be laid out to pass through Column
bus, Indianapolis, and Vandalia, (the
seats Of government of Ohio, Indiana,
and Illinois) and appropriating the aa-
di,ional sum OF 10000 dollars to defray
the expense ofthe surveys.
Mr.. Johnson, of KY. observed, that
the bill was merely to authorize the COM
ple,ion of an important object which had
been commenced. The people Of the
weat, far removed from the seat OF enh-
pire, asked for very few thingss and he
hoped this little boon would not be re-

be regarded as measure OF private

because the sacrifice could not have been

following are extracts :--- ..
LosDoN, JAN. s.
The project OF the law OF the public
press proposed by the new French Mi
nsters, is given in our preceding CO.
lumns. These men pledged themselves
when seeking office, TO dispense with the
previous censorship, but the actual pos
session Of Office appears to have had a
wonderful effect upon their memory
They propose to limit the exercise otthe
censorship, it is true, but in place OF the
curtailment, they substitute measure OF
increased severity, which enables 60
vernmcnt TO support or entirely suppress
any journal which has not the good for
tune to find favor in their sight. 1t is
not probable that a ministry got into pow
er by the ailectation of liberal views
should survive the insult offered to pub
lie opinion on the proposal Of law that
completely extinguishes the liberty OF
the press, and with it aims deadly blow
ct the constitution and the liberties ofthe
country.
Germon papers and Dutch mail, the
latter with papers to the I'd inst. arrived
this morning .---They contain an account
of L curious affair between some Turk
ish and Russian soldiers on the Pruth,
but it was merely an accidental rencon-
tire. The Austrian Observer from the
18th to he 22d Dec. inclusive has no
news from Turkey and Greece. The
