An English paper gives the following
explanation Of the fact that insemper-
ance abridges life.
An ingenious author asserts, that the
length of a mans life may be estimated
by the number Of pulsations he has
strength to perform that allowing 10
years for the common age Of man, and
60 pulses in minute for the common
measure OF pulses in temperate per-
son, the number Of pulsations in his whole
life would amount to 3,287.52O 600
but If by intempcr2nce he forces his
blood into more rapid motion, so as TO
give seventy-iiye pulses in minute, the
same number of pulses would be COM
pleted in fiiy-six years: consequently
his life would be reduced fourteen wears.

ity."
1t is confidently asserted and belev-
ed, that Mr.. Monroe will not accept the
Resignation of Mr.. Edwards.
Why should he ? The Committee
are not the Judges-and if they were,
they could not condemn Mr.. Edwards,
who stands accused Of nothing, but
Jealous desire to shield the nation from
pillage, and purge it off CORFU tion. This
he has done to il certain extent--it re-
mains for Congress to complete the pur-
cation.
We should rather think il will be Mr.
Crawford's Resignation that will be &C
copied. Compassion only caninflueuce
the President to retain him in the Cabi-
net. Columbian Observer.
Mr.. Craw ford. Our principal obiec-
ton to the promotion of this gentleman
to the Presidency, may as we'll be stat
ed explicitly. It's to the party hat sup
ports him. We know many men OF the
first reepectability--men of fair minds
and honorable feelings, are in his favor,
and we make them exceptions 10 these
remarks: but the great body of lis sup
porters are what are termed Radicals.
They are the ambitious and the dsap-
pointed of all parties. They are those
who have always been most forward in
widening the differences of political o.
pinion. and exaspersting the spirit of
party upon all occasions. There are
men in the Federal party, who, it is be-
IieVed, never wish to see it rise again,
unless they can rise with it to The top.
There are many men in the democratic
party who are not content with their
complete numerical triumph, because,
though their party may as such be vic
torlous, they, as individuals, have gain
ed nothing by their noise. These are
what we understand by Craw fordites ;
and though he may be an honest man,
he must, if he becomes President, be
ruled by such men. If that be the case,
how long shall we boast, in the eyes of
the world, the excellence of our insti-
tutions. and the virtue, the happiness,
and the prosperity Of our country! The
republican simplicity of our beautifully
modelled constitution, Of which we talk,
so loudly, will attract more minute
and scrutinlzing look from the political
ship carpenters ofother countries they
will see the intrigues that have been
hammered and caulked into her seams
and crevices: they will examine the
corrupted water in her bilge, and quar-
antine her even in the sickIy ports of
Europe. Con. Mirror.

IN SENATE.
FRIDAY, March 5, 1924

A message from the President of the United
States, transmitting copies of contracts for sur
veving public lands, in Illinois, Missouri, and
Arkansas, since lst January, 1919, was receiv-
ed, read and referred TO the Committee on the
Public Lands.
The Vice President communicated preamble
and resolution of the Legislature of the STATE of
New York, requesting their Senators and Re-
presentativcs to endeayor to obtain from Con-
grcss some further relief for the Niagara suffer-
ings during the late war. On motion of Mr..
Van Buren,, the document was ordered to lie on
the table.
The resolution submitted by Mr.. Johnson of
Louisiana, q few days since, directing an inquiry
into the expediency of opening post road from
Baton Rouge to Opelousas Court House, in the
state of Louisiana, was again read, and, ON mo
ton OF MIR. Mills, it was laid on the table.
The resolution submitted yesterday by Mr..
LLOYD, of Massachusetts, was again read. The
resolution requests from the President of the
United States copies of the instructions given to
our Minister, to France, with the correspon-
dence and such other information in reference
TO spoliations committed on our commerce by
the vessels of that nation previous to the year
1900 as it may be proper 10 communicate, in
order to shew how far the individuals claim to
indemnity for those spoliations was affected By
the Convention concluded with France III the
year 1900.
MIR. Barbour stated that as Chairman of the
Committee on Foreign Relations, to whom the
numerous petitions OF this subject was referred,
he had communicated with the Secretary Of
State in relation TO it. He had been informed
that the documents connected with these claims
were so voluminous that they could not possibly
be prepared during tic present session. He did
not make this remark in opposition to the rcso-
luton, but merely to show TO the Senate the rea-
son why the Committee would net be able to
report on these claims.
Mr., LLOYD, of Massachusetts, made few re
marks in favor of the resolution. He was nos

was discussed, and quoted as an example, sepe-
pecially in the present bill, the whole protecting
policy ofwhich was insisted OH as being borrow
ed from Great Britain.
Much occasional pleasantly arose, and agree
ably relieved the dryness of the debate. MIR.
Tod compared himself to the man represented in
the htle-page of the Almanac, stuck through on
every side, and in every part OF his body; and, in
reply to an intimaton that, as Chairman of the
Committee he ought to have been acquainted
with certain facts of statistical and geoagra-
phicai kind, with which he did not seem familiar,
replied, that TO fight an enemy, and beat them
too, it was not needful to know all the names of
his captains and colonies, and ofthe rank and 6le
that made up his army.
The question being put on Mr.. Tod's amend
ment, laying duty on pig iron, it was decided
III the negative, Ayes 10, Noes III.
On motion of Mr.. Tod, the duty of o5 per
cent ad valorem, son printing types, twas strick-
en- out.
He further proposed duty of 80 per cent. ad
valorcm son ol-cloth carpeting, and oil-coth
ofevery description" but, on an intimation from
Mr.. Cambreleng, that specific duty would be
preferred by the manufacturers, agreed to with
draw his motion for the present.
The Committee then rose-and
The House adjourned.

NORTHWEST COAST.

The Editor of the Paris Journal DIES Debats saws.
Gin rejecting the tone of close friendship which
reigns towards Russia and the Presidents MESSAGE.
and recalling to mind the real state Of the facts, we
are sure that the principle in question is not direct
ed against Russia. The Russian Establishments on
the northwestern coast already exist. The Presi-
dent only speaks of future coonizatio 1t is against
the English United Company, that is, the North
West and Hudson's Bay, that the American princi-
pie is put forward; perhaps, also, it is directed a.
gainst other Powers. The President evidently wish
the United States to share the NORTHWEST Coast
with Russia and England, in contempt of the posi-
tive grants Of Spain"

By the latest advices from Mexico, we learn
that Don Jose Joapan Herrera, Secretary of
War, is appointed minister TO the United States,
and was soon to depart for Washington.
A project of the basis ola constitution for tie
united provinces Of the centre of America, was
presented to the national assembly of the Repub-
lie of Guatimala, on the 25th Of October, 1898.
That Republic bidsfair to be one Of the most solid

of its political. geographical, agricultural and
commercial situation, and having president
named Don .OIo'1uet Jose free, who bids fair by
his patriotism and good conduct, to complete tue
