MIR. Lloyd, of Massachusetts, from the Com

the petition Of josiah Watson aud Jane Watson,
praying relief from the Government, in conse.
quence of the dependent and helpless situation
to which they have been reduced by the death
of their son, while in the service OF his country
submitted a report: That committee state, that
the petitioners are the parents, in very advanced
life, OF the late JVitiiara Henry WutSon, an Off
Ger Of the United States Navy, ofgreat promise;
who, after having, in avery.galIaDt manner, in
fifcte1 OH the pirates of the Gulf Of Mexico, ADD
the coasts of Cuba, meritcd and severe pun
ishment, fell a victim, while on duty, to the cpl
demic prevailing on boarJ the ship of war John
Adams, at Thompson's Island, in the autumn of
the last year: that the petitioners are not only
very aged, but are in narrow circumstances;
and were dependent upon their deceased and
lamented son, for the principal part of their sup
port and that their case presents strong claim
on the sympathy, if not upon the justice, Of the

tended that the duty books ought to be such as

ana 'iiat, with respect to books in general use
1t was well known that the American book,
seher could not only enter into competition with
books printed abroad, but had almost excluded

VI DOCKS OF science, not generally read, though
very important TO professional and scientific
men, winch were not generally republishcd in
TINS country. No obstacle should be nterposcd
to prevent the introduction of such books. Mr..
IL. considered books n rdc material, essen
tai 10 the formation of the mind, the morals,
ana the character of the people; and which
should DC introduced free of duty. Mr.. III. al
so strongly objected to the duty on The books or
me pound. The value of "a book, he thought,
did not depend on Els lceight. He compared this
method of estimating books to that mentioned in
Observation-Disclosures History of New York, where
the Dutch Governor settled mercantile transac.
tons by weighing the merchants books Of ac-
count in scales.
This amendment was also supported by Mr.
Hiii's, anu opposed by Mr.. Dickerson The
question upon adopting il was then put, and car
ried IN the atiirinatVe-yeas %, nays 22.
MIR. Dickerson moY ed TO gil the blank i'm tbc
amendment which had just been adopted, with
"ttcenty.fre," so as to make the duty twenty per
centum ad yalorem. This was not agreed to.
MIR. Seymour then moved to fill the blank
with 't'0catyofcc," SO as 10 make the duty TWEEN
ty-hve per centum ad valorem. This was car
ried, Yeas 2i, Nays %.
SO the duty on all books was fixed, in the bill
at 25 per centum ad valorem.
Mr.. Smith moved TO amend the bill, by ex-
cepting ''c'nbrics and ta,Vns made jlar, - from
the duty OF 25 per cent. imposed, by the bill,
upon all manufactures of cotton, silk, flax, or
hemp. JQr Smith communicated to the Senate
some amendments in support of his motion. The
amendment was not agreed TO.
.tr. Lloyd, of Mass. moved TO amend the bill
SO as TO except "laces made Of .Ga@ or cotton, !"

On motion of Mr.. Barbour, the bill was laid

as soon as section of the canal should be COM
pleted tariff of tolls to be at once imposed.
MIR. Garland enforced his prJet, by great
variety OF views, arguments and calculations,
which to say the least of them, were extremely
plausible. The want of time, prevents US now
from laying the whole of MIR. Garland's arsu-
ment before the public.
MIR. Yanccy followed Mr.. G. in favor of the
substitute he had offered to the Committee lie
declared that he was originally, friend to the
proposition to extend the canal to the mouth of
Dunlap's Creek. He had formed his opinions
from the estimates of Moore and Briggs, and re-
iying on their correctness, and the result they
declared, he had believed the project both prac-
mencement OF the work, facts and Circumstances
fiad convinced him, that the Enateers had err
cd, ard the work would cost, twice their esti-
mate. Consequently his calculations had fail
ed, and his opinions changed. He was there
tore a seceder, from the original project and he
would engage to complete the canal no further,
than the faith of the State was already pledged
to carry ito the end of the first section. He
would leave it to future legislature, who
would have more experience than this, to
prosecute it further if they pleased-Hc once
believed that the james River had the capacity
to finish this work for itself-He was alarmed
at the prospect of mourning SO large debt, be-
cause he was convinced the James River popu-
latIon, would exclusively have it to paw.
Mr.. Winston followed M. Y. i'm opposition to
MIR. Garland's substitute and in favor of Mr..
Yanccy's.
Mr.. Taylor then addressed the Committee at
length, IN favor of Mr.. Garland's substitute and
the prosecution oftbe canal to its first proposed
limits. When Mr.. Taylor had finished, the
committee rose and reported, and then the
House adjourned.

In proposing an amendment to the amendment Of
tered by Mr.. Caston to the bill for extending the
Charter of the Farmers Bank of Virginia, Mr.. Ma

1t with view to defeat the bill.He remarked that
he would be guilty of the insincerity of profess

opinion may be questioned, inasmuch as
the seed of that which has degenerated,

return to its peculiar growth, and re-
produce the spikes of ears in clusters.
II has been pretended that if sown in

the fact is, that if sowed at any time be-

GOLD AND SILVER.

Prideaux says tina, gold and silver
were much more plenty in the time of
David and Solomon, and for 1900 years
afterwards, than they are at present; and
that the mines Of Arabia being exhaust.
ed, and the gold and silver with which
the world abounded being wasted by the
barbarians, the mines Of Mexico, Peru
and Brazil, have not been able to repair
the loss. He mentions two or three in
stances Of the vast riches of private men
in ancient times. Py,hias, the Lydian,
possessed gold and silver to the amount
Of ~ millions Of dollars of our money.
Marcus CrGsus, the Roman, after feast.
ing all the people OF Rome at 10000
tables, and giving every citizen corn
enough to last him three months, found
the remainder Of his estate to be equal
to 2 millions Of dollars. Lucuiius,
Roman Senator, used to sxpend about
so 900 deoarii (about S7ooo) every time

To DAVID GELsroN, ESQ.
Since l visited, yesterday, the plants
of wheat growing in your garden a,
Greenwich, l have paid some attention
to its species and culture. During our
conversation, told you thought j, pro-
bable | should find some account in Cal
HzioA's Agrarian Botany, a very inter.
esting work, in which, among grea,
number Of other subjects, wheat is con-
sidered in a diffuse and ample manner.
In contradistinction to common wheat,
this kind has been called conahound
wheat, because instead of single spike
or head, it has many branches from one
culm of straw. 1t is also distinguished
as Zriticnm comtositum, BuncheG
wheat, Branching wheat, Miraculous
wheat; it has likewise been called from
the places Of its derivation, Egyhtian
and Bar6ary wheat; as also Smyrna
wheat.
This species is said to be very prone
to degenerate; though If carefully cult
waited in rich soil, soWed rather thin,
