From the Finrissfer Republican Janc
THE VICE-PRESIDENT

The session of congress has come 10 4 close.
The president OF the senate has returned TO
mingle with his f:llow-citizcus, followed bv the
unqualified disapprOhatiun Of the great mass Of
the American people The murmur Of an in
dignant nation will reach him in his retirement
and his unhallowed ambition shall meet its Just
reward, Il shall be rec aicd that under his au-
spices the senate OF the United States was con-
pertcd into an arena for the display Of the vii
est passions Of the human heart; that neither
personal worth, talents or grey hairs, the living
or the dead, found respect or protection; that
men, the representatives Of sovereign states,
elected for their age aud experience, and sup
posed by these qualifications TO be able to exert
a salutary controlling influence over the more
impetuouS branch of the national legislature,
that these men should be driven by the policy
OF The vice-presidtnt 10 take the lead in the tilt
and tournaments libel ii once upon nature &
,he constitution 81 the senate; and all this too
because the vise-pres'lent did no, choose to ex-
ercise any powers bat suCa were specifically
granted to him by the rules ct tho senate. His
apology is worse than his offence He is noto-
aiously latitudinaran in his construction Of
powers. He believes that the grant OF power
in itself carries With it the use OF all the mtaus
necessary and proper to carry IL into cHect-
Hence, in his late famous report IS secretary of
war he cut up this union by proposed roads s
canals, until il presented 10 the fancy the APP
oearance Of a chcss-board. lie stickles at the
rules of the senate, but compromises, il his
scruples are trac, with the constitution OF his
country He strains al a gnat, and swallows
camel. Ills doom is as certain as though II
were written on the wall.

FROM HAVANA.

Ne,c York, JYae S-We learn by the ship Al
fed, arrived last evening in % days iIom Ha-
vana, that the Spanish squadron were shortly
to proceed to Carihagena, for the purpose OF
blockading tina! port. They were provisioocd
for ten months, aud it was supposed they we're
sufficiently strong for that purpose. All was
tranquil at Havana, and no fears entertained OF
the Colombians. Sugar was coming im very
plenty, and the crop being large sand fne, 1t
was supposed great quantity would lie over.
Business was very duh aud money scarce, The
market was oyerstocked with all kinds OF pro-
duce. The city continued very healthy

NEW INVENTED CANAL LOCK.

We were highly grati6ed by witnessing the
operations of model of Canal Lock upon an
entire new construction, invented by Isaac A..
Chapman, Esq. Of this Borough. 1t was exhib-
tied to number ofgcntlemen OH Monday last,
and on Tuesday, morning at the house of the
inventor II is SO constructed that by means Of
it, boat may pass up and down from one level
to another without any expenditure Of water.
A movable box is made to rise and fall in the
Lock by means of water admitted into ii thro'
Sypkon. and this water is returned again by
the Syphon into the upper level Of the Canal.
AS the box or movable Dock rises in the per-
manent Lock, the boat falls, and as the Lock
falls the boat rises.
MIR. Chapman calls il, "7he Syphon Losk," *
there appe ars TO be no doubt in the minds of
those who have seen its operation, that Ca
nal provided with such Locks would require
but little more water than would be sufficient
10 supply leakage, soakage and evaporation.
Should there be found no difficulty in the oper-
alton of this new Lock, Of which we believe
there is no doubt, it is thought the quantity OF
