IN SENATE.

Tuesday, Dec. 14.--On motion of MIR.
Barbour,
ResoiUed, That so much of the Presidents
Message as relates to Foreign Affairs, be referred
to the Committee on Foreign Relations
(The motion of Mr.. Barbour, it was
understood, comprehends, besides others,
that portion of the Message which relates
to arrangements for the suppression of pi-
racy and of pirates, on the Island of Gu
ba, as we'll as Oh the water. The question
of reference gave rise to some conversa-
ton on the part of Mr.. Barbour, Mr..
Hayne, and Mr.. Lloyd, OF Mass. which
was interesting, as it indicated strong
desire and determination in the Senate to
leave no effort unemployed to effectually
protect our commerce from piracy in the
West Indian seas, and to extirpate the
frcebooters who now, by the facilities of
concealment afforded TO them in the Island
of Cuba, &c. prey on our commerce, and
commit such atrocities on those who fall in
to their hands. In the course of the CONVEX
sation, Mr.. IIayne and Mr.. Lloyd both
ntimated an intention they had respect
ive!y formed, to bring the subject fully be-
fore the Senate, by special inquiries.)
Mr.. Van Buren, presented the Memorial
of the Inhabitants OF the City Of n. York,
on Che subject of Piracy.
On motion of Mr.. Van Buren,, it was
Resolred, That the petition be printed, and re-
ferred to the Committee on Foreign Relations.
MIR. Benton presented the petition of
sundry inhabitants Of the state of Mlssou-
ri, on the subject of trade and intercourse
between that state and the internal Provin-
ces of Mexico.
(This petition recited, that beneficial
trade had been carried on for some years
between the inhabitants of the two coun-
tries, in which domestic cottons, and other
articles, had been carried out from the u
nited States, and gold, silver, furs, and

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

Tuesday Dec. 14.--Nlr. Wright of Ohio,
offered the following resolution
HeSotrsd, That the Committee the Judicial
ry be instructed to inquire into the propriety Oh
providing, by law, that any judicial or other
civil officer of the Government OF the United
states, who shall hereafter engage in fighting a
duel, or challenging, assisting, or encouraging,
any other person so to engage, shall forfeit the
ofiice by hun so held, and be ever afterwards
rendered incapable of holding the like other
office under the Government.
Mir. Tucker, of Va, called for the pre-
vious question of consideration, which was
put and the House agreed to consider the
resolution.
MIR. Poinsett, of S. c., then moved to
lay the resolution ON the table, which mo-
ton was negatived, and the resolution was
adopted without division being called for,
though not without considerable negative
vote.
MIR. McDuffie, of S. C. gave notice that
on Monday next he would move that the
House go into committee of the whole on
the State Of the Union, to consider joint
resolution to amend the Constitution Of the
United States, offered by him at the last
session but, on the suggestion of Mr.. A.
Stevenson, of Va. he deferred the time of
calling for its consideration till the first
Monday of January next.
Adjourned.
WedneSday Dec. 15.-The Speaker
laid before the House communication
from the Department of the treasury, sta
ting the amount and periods at which the
bonds take in for duties on imports in the
year 1922, became payable. BY this
statement, it appears that the duties on i'm
ports which accrued during the year 1922
amounted to $4,O95,9S6 81 of which
S4S4,6S9 AZ werereceived in cash and the
residue Of $23,6IO,65O As, in several
credits allowed by law. 1t is estimated
that, if these credits had been allowed on
an interest Of 6 per cent, the interest there
on would have amounted to $1,151 ,416
So.
The Speaker also laid before the house
from the same Department, statement in
relation to the rate of interest at which the
Bank of the United States, will continue
the loan Of seven millions Of dollars to the
United States, by which it appears that the
Bank declines making any change in the

#Tbe democratic convention that assembled att
senion on the 18th Oet. for the purpose of nomi-
Etnp electors of President and Vice President and
obers of congress for New Jel sey, consisted ex
Isiyely of delegates chosen at the regular demo-
,ic meetings. in the different counties, the dele
,.,es chosen at meetings called by the particular,
laSends of any presidential candidate being very
sxoperly rejected Upon the organization OF the
IA venton, Rober.M Chesnpy, Esq. being president,
IA Robert Ire, Esq. secretary, 1t appeared that
%elye counties were represented, Cape May hav
y sent no delegates, OF the convention, major
y of the whole number OF delegates we're in avor|

He'd are John Buck, Joseph Ke, Joseph Rogers
&aac G.. Farlee Jacob Kline, James Cook Peter

Uniform and decided democrats, and all but one IN
Eyor OF General JachrSon. That one, though friend
~ to Mr.. Crawford, is moderate and sensible re-
Sblican, and it is undetst will not divide the
Electoral vote OF New Jersey. The ticket will I'M
Ssue stionably succeed by large majority. The
xonyention also nominated Dr. George Holcombe,
Samuel Swan, George Cassidy, Silas Condit, Daniel
Harrison and Ebenezer Tucker, as the democratic
candidates. 10 represent that state in congress These
Nets derived from one Of the most respectable de-
rnocratic delegates of the Trenton convention, may
81 implicitly relied on. The statement, that MI.

tbnvention was erroneous, and doubtless proceeded
Hon the fact that many delegates chosen by The
ffiends of Mr.. adams alone presented themselves
