a Noble Horse.--An English paper announces
the death of the highly celebrated hunter WooxEx
WALKER, the property Of Captain William Heaey.
The performances Of this horse, as hunter, have
been very extraordinary, He has been known to-
leap thirty five barred gates in one day, with his
owner; and in the grand steepie chase, near New
castle, he eapsd the great Burn Of nine yards deep
water, and won the match CALAMITY, which was oF
200 sovcreigns. On the banks were stationed men
with ropes for the preservation OF the daring rider,
captain William Healey, who accomplished this un~
equaed task in the presence OF thousands.

SaTony Sheep.-Tbe importation of sheep. seiecs
ted from the fine focks of Saxony, must be viewed
with much qualification by those who feel an inter-
est in the prosperity of this country. 1t is but las
tie more than fifty years since the merino aocks Of
Spain were first introduced into Saxony. So rapid
has been their increase since. that Saxony in ads
ton to supplying her own manufactures, now fur
nishes much of the finest woc manufactured id
England. No country possesses more fayourabIs
Climate or better pastures for sheep than the United
States. Wherever the fine merino sheep of Spas
have been introduced they have been found 10
lthrive.-Their Beeces have been imp owed g
Equality, by attentive treatment. From the usual
enterprise and industry which has distinguished the
inhabitants OF this country, it will not be deemed too
sauguine 10 hope, that nearly as rapid an increase
may take place in the production of the staple ar.
tlcle of WOOL as has taken place in that Of cotons
within the last thirty years. and that msny who are
now in existence may live to see the period when
line wool shall be clashed among the great staple ex-
ports Of this country. PrOridence Journal.

Portugal.-An arrival at Boston from Gibraltar.
has brought papers from that place to the 22d Of
May, containing later advices from Spain and Por-
ltugal than were previously received A letter from
Cadiz, received at Gibraltar on the 22d, says" it
us mentioned with good deal OF Certainty, that
$500 more French troops are to enter Spain irme-
diatey that Two regiments are ordered from Car
thagena TO Cadlz at which place prepa, atoms are
making tolodge them. These movements in SPAIN
with the recent events in Portugal, lead many to-
believe all is not we'll, and that war is brewing.''

To the Editors of The American Sc,,,;nc,


CENT? have to request the insertion
OF the accompanying documents in your next
paper.-I feel sensibly the delicacy Of the sinh.
)ect to which they relate, and regret sincerely
the imperious necessity which demands of me
the course ] have pursued. In addition TO
what has been published, my feelings have been
harassed by accusing letters from men whose
full confidence I have hitherto enjoyed, and the
purity OF whose motives / arm not now disposcd
toquestion. The publication was not deter
mined on, before the President had, on the per-
sonal application of mutual friend. acknov-
lodged the receipt Of ny letter, and declined in
reference on his part. The matter is submit
ted without comment 10 the jugdment of an in
teliigent and impartial public. and sincerely
hope that no after circumstance NAV render #
indispensable TO the further Yindication Of nav
character, to lay before tbefnthe incontroverfblc
evidence within my power.
With respect, your obcdient and humble ser.

At length, the TARIFF Bill has been or

ongroiscd and read third time, which pre-
ciudes all f:rthcr amendment in that House.
This was not effected without resort to the

ons on the subject, watch we have ycntured to

that the vote is decisive of the fate OF the bill in

w ARLINGTON, y TTri II.
After discussion Of ten weeks, the Sill for A
Revision Of the Tariff of Duties on Imports, has
passed The House n Representatives. by major
Ity OF ttVe votes, and is now, rather Will be on
Monday, before the Senate.
The first circumstance which strikes every
one is, the fitness ofthe House on this occasion,
indicating tho profound interest which the sub
Jecth has excited. More than one member, who
was indisposed, rose from his bed to vote on the
occasion; and, but for the situation of these two
or three gentlemen, it is probable the friends of
the bill would not, yesterday, have forced de-
cIsion upon it, rs they did. Out Of the two hun
dred and thirteen Members, two were only alb
sent yesterday, one Of. them abscntfroin the CT
~, and the other too much iDdisposed to reach
the NOuse. So full an attendance has never
been known during the time that wehsvc bren
acquainted with the Bouse of representatives.
The second circumstance, worthy ofrernark.
is' that, WITH orc or two exceptions, the discus
SION OF this bill has been conducted with great
iorbeaTancc and mutual Difference on the part
OF tic members. We could net but remark, in
the closing speech yesterday, that, though the
argument against tho bill was pre- sed with great
force, there was not word uttered disrcspect-
iul to the persons or derOgatory from the motives
OF its supporters
The bill Is sov in the hands OF tho Sente. as
