CONGRESS-.

The President has made the piracies off the
coast OF Cuba the subject of a special mes
sage to Congress and efficient measures will
probably be taken to punish the outlaws BY
whom they are committed.
1t will be seen that several interesting sub
jects are already before the House of Repre-
sentatives. The members of that body do
not seem TO be satisfied that the & utmost e.
conomy'' is observed in the expenditure of
the publick monies.
The Bill, reported at the last session, for
revising the Tariff of duties upon imports, is
referred to the Committee of Ways and Means.
There is little doubt that some bill framed in
conformity with the suggestion in the Pres,
dents message, will pass. At least this is TO
be inferred from the general appreciation which
that suggestion has received throughout the
country. Ifso, question which has excited,
in some parts of the Union, an uncommon de-
gree of feeling, will be put at rest for the
present. The good effects of the system rec
commended, is proved by tla present state Of
our manufactures Of coarse cotton and if
some other articles are as judicioasly selected,
we hope its advantages will be extended to
them.

nov. 80.

A bill has been introduced into our
legislature, by Mr.. d. G. Campbell, to
establish and endow a publick seat Of
learning for the education of females.
The preamble of the bill is in the fol-
lowing words -
"It is the Distinguishing happiness of
the present generation to live in an age
of improvement, and 10 enjoy the means
of ameliorating the condition of all class
es of society. In reviewing the pro-
gress of literature, under this, the best
government that exists, we are furnish
ed with the fact, that in no part of the
vast confederation has the education of
females been made the object of pub
lick muniicence. This fact becomes
interesting, and the more deeply 10 be
regretted when we reflect that 10 fe-
males is entrusted the early instruction
of youth, and that our feelings and prin-
ciples are mostly of maternal origin
How necessary, then, that a department
so high, and charged with duties so del
icate and important, should early be
placed under the redeeming hand of
science and religion. These are the
strongest safeguards, under Providence,
of the perpetuity of government, and
the integrity of individuals. To direct
them in their appropriate destinies, is
the pleasing. grateful duty of those who
legislate for the general prosperity
For the requirement Of solid and useful
female education, our sister States af-
ford an incompetent reliance. And if
we were satisfied of their sufliciency,
the result would be too humliating for
the generous ambition Of Georgia, and
the means of her INDUCING it,
6 For the purpose, therefore, Of rails
ing from comparative obscurty he
fairest portion of our population, aud
enabling them to contribute to the rich
stores of literature, philosophy, and re-
igion, Be 1t enacted, S.c.''
A Board of Trustees Of fifteen males
and fifteen females, is proposed TO su-
perintend the lnstitution-the Board to
meet annually. The site of the Inst-
tuition to be selected as soon as possible,
and to be located in place known to
be healthy. A further notice of this
measure is unnecessary, till its eventual
late is known. Chron.

From the albany DAILY .4dcertissr. !

H'OHt "te U1tOupy LG1ty cIutSIttSeT
Erie CGnat-ln the g Utica Sentinel"
of the 10Th November last, perceive
that the proprietors of the passage-boats
which ply between Utica and Alonte>unad,
had recently received dividend of S86
pershare which is equaIt to 56 per cent.
Cor the last six months, on the capital en-
ployed. Such unexampled profits will
undoubtedly invite competition and the
business will never, after this season,
yield so rich reward to the individuals
who may enter into it. But let us ex-
anime the clear and certain interest of
the publick, resulting from the single
atem OF the boats employed by that COM
pany on the middle section of the Canal,
during six months. That enormous div
idend was earned by two boats, the
{" Monteemma'' and {" Oneida Chief >
which run daily, except Sundays and
which in 1853 working days, (during six
months) have navigated 23,440 miles
being considerably more than the whole
circumference of the earth.
The number of passengers (comput-
ing an average of 90 to each boat was
$500. The expedition was full equal to
that of the post-coaches and the saving
of expense ESTIMATED at one third less
than the expense by stages) was Sl2,64O.
The amount of toll paid into the state
treasury, on the two boats, during six
months (being six cents per mi!e) is
5000 which is equal TO the interest of
S8o,880 at 5 per cent. during that time.
1t is expected that double line of
passage-boats will, next year, run daily
from Schenectady TO Rochester a dis
lance Of 240 miles boat leaving each
of those places every morning, and an
other every evening and three days
allowed for the passage from the one
place to the other.
This is only " the day Of small things -
but the test of experiment has thus far
justified the most sangune calculations of
the early friends of the canal. And yet
there are Croakers, who still insist, that
Onondoga sclt is of no value that pota-
toes contain no nutriment and that the
Erie Canal is an unwise project.-Jam

The Hon. George Canning had been
appointed Secretary of State for For
eign Affairs, in the place of the late
Marquis OF Ecpdonderry. This APP
pointment appeared 10 afFord much sat
isfaction TO the friends Of the Pitt sysA
ten, as it promised to more than sup
ply the loss Of their leader in the Honse
of Commons. On commercial subjects,
the policy Of the deceased Secretary
was said to have been more liberal than
those of his successor. On others less
SO.
The papers contain many details of
Grecian affairs. There was some I'M
official confederation Of the triumph Of
the Greeks at Thermopyl;e but moth
ing official. 1t was not only doubted by
others but there were statements from
the East, that the Turkish main army
had passed from EiDadm into the Morea :,
and had dispersedlhe Grecian Congress,
which had been 50 long in session at
Cortnth. and that some Of its members
lad fled TO aud found an asylum at
zante. II is impossible 10 ascertain how
mich Of these contradictory statements
are facts or forgeries. General appear
ances indicated that the Turks were in
earnest to suppress the Instruction
and that the fate Of Naples would be
that of the Ptlopponcssns The hopes
of freemen are, that these appearances
may prove deceitfui.

and to Mr. Asa Rice, jr. who exhibited
another fat Cow, for the variety and
richness which the animals added 10 the
Show.
The Committee having now COM
plCsed The irksome task of deciding be-
tween the competitors for premiums,
have the pleasure of discharsiny the
duty which remains TO them, by report
ing to the Society the unwearied efforts
of Mr.. Williams, lst Vice President, and
of Ward Nicholas Boylston, Esq. one
of the Board of Trustees, to give the
utmost interest and importance to our
Publick Exhibitions. The former, at
much trouble, sent us Denton" the
progenitor of race in our country of
incalculable value, with several of the
family of this peculiar Stock-and the
latter gave us fine samples ofti1c excel
lent breed for which his farm and the
town of Princeton are much noted
Mr.. Henry Rogers, of Worcester, ex-
hibited an excellent Cow.--And the
Chairman of this Committee is directed
by his associates TO report his exhibit
ton of eight fine animals, of different
ages; of the cross of theimported short
horns, by Denton" Several other
Cattle were seen and particularly adj
mired, but as they were not regularly
entered in the books of the Society, the
Committee regret that they are unable
to do justice to their respective owners.
Having thus discharged their official
duty, the Committee cannot deny to
themselves the pleasure of rendering to
the Society their warmest congratula-
tons on the character of the present
Show. This is the fourth Exhibition of
the kind which has been had in this
County, and If has been attended with
additional interest, and the most entire
qualification. If any thing can mark
the happy condition of the reople-can
illustrate their habits of industry, tenn
perance and moral worth, it must more
than all, be such picture of property,
prosperity and independence, as this day
exhibits. The wealth Of the farmer is
in his Stock-the power of labour to
subdue and till the earth, is in the
strength of his oxen-the riches of his
dairy are in the products of his cows
the profits of his grounds, in the grazing
of his stocks and herds, are the pride Of
his possessions, in the use, quality and
value, of all which he can exhibit.

ed his regular files OF the Constitution

Of SeptemRr inclusive, from which we
gather the following items of intelii-
gence-:- .americaa.
The mos interesting news furnished
by this arriIal is the following account
of an UNEXPECTED disaster Of the Greeks
in the More.
An extrac from the Austrian Observ-
er of the 2dof September is contained
in the Journal des Debats Of the 18th,
which repHsents the state of the
Greeks to be n a very unfavourable con-
dition. TheChiliarch, Ulysses, is said
to have desetea the cause Of the insur-
gents, after living put to death Two of
the deputies $nt to him by the Govern
ment Of CoFAth: in consequence of
which, he was declared an enemy TO his
country, an( mathematical by the Me-
tropoiitans.
Choursctd Pacha had been already
ten days inLibadia. A corps of 5000
men have Zen transported TO Corinth,
whose appearance has spread consterna-

of the mos important families in the
Morea have lately arrived at Zante-
