From The United Sfntcs Gazette.

Considerable talk is made in the western
papers, and in those of Virginia, upon an item
ofexpense, Sc, down by the person who furnish
ed the Presidents house-it was $50 for re-
pairs 10 billiard table. The matter is handled
in certain prints as if the whole future election
was 10 turn upon the fact Of the purchase or
repairs. An eastern paper states that "the Ia
Die was purchased during MIR. Monroe's adj
ministra,ion." This may be; but if i, was not,
there is something like smile due the horrihc
paragraphs that certain editors, known to be
dear lovers Of less noisy games, intict upon this
sa6t.-We suppose that game OF Billiards
without bets will be considered as waste OF
time-how many rubs could have been played
while Mr.. Randolph and some OF his imltators
ir specialization, were caroning their ideas ior
awitticisms Who ever plays billiards ior S'r
hoars, a; the rate Of four thousand an hour

The gold and silver, specie and bullion, i'm
ported into the United States during the COM
mercial year ending Sept, soth last, amounted
to 6,l5o,765 dollars. In the same period, "a
greeably to the Custom House returns, the ex-
port of gold and silver was s,7e7;os5 dollars.
From which it appears chat the export exceed
ed the import by 2,646, 300 dollars.
This enormous export was occasloned by ex-
cessive issues Of paper, whereby the specie was
driven out of the country, and the China trade
in particular, so ia, overdone, that most of those
engaged in it have suffered loss. This year,
as is natural, there is a reaction. Silver is
brought in in so great abundance that the men
at the Mint have to perform what is called a
"day and half work." and the export Of spe-
Gle from the port of Philadelphia, during the
months of April, MAY, and June Of the present
year has been only 5oo,50l dollars, against fUo
million one hundred and Mirty.sir thousand ono
hundred and fifty one dollars in the correspond
ing months OF last year. Lfn'faa' GdS.
.Anecdote of The Pacha of Eggpt-We have
heard very characteristic anecdole related Of
this very extraordinary person. 1t appears,
that the foreign merchants residing in Egypt
waited upon his highness, to know at what
price he intended to sell the cotton this year.
The Pacha returned an unsatisfactory answer,
and they pressed him for more explicit informa-
ton as TO his intentions, limiting that, unless
they received it, they should be compelled TO
break up their establishments and leave the
country. The Pacha listened to their threat
with the gravity of Turk, and, when the de-
puta,ion had done speaking, replied, to the fol-
lowing observation-disclosures you may do just as
YOU please. You came 10 Egyp: without being
asked, and you may leave it as soon as you
like

The following extract from communica-
ton in Baltimore paper, sheds more light
upon the powers and practice of the Vice Pre-
sident as President Of the Senate, than all the
labored arguments we have read. Had MIR.
Calhoun possessed the frmness to act as his
predecessors had done, he might have saved
himself from ruin, and the Senate from dis
grace.
81 have jus, laid my hands on the debates Of
tSe Senate, in the year 1905, on the resolutions
offered by Mr.. Ross Of Pa. authorizing the Pre-
sident to take possession OF New-Orleans, or
some place adjacent, and observe that Mr..
DAYTON remarked-"if / act disorderly, the
President has right to call me to order; he
must decide whether am in order or not
Mr. Tracy also remarked-"Accor to par
hameniary proceeding, no one can take posses
sion of the floor to the interruption OF ano-
,hcr; if disorderly, the President will call him
TO order, but if called BY member, the President
must decide, and if in order, he must possess
the floor" Mr.. Nicholas, OF Va. rose and said
he wished 10 make one or two observations In
reply 10 Mr. Ross. The Vice President inter.
rup,ed him and said, "if those observations
were intended to apply to the question whether
the resolutions should be the order for Monday,
they would be proper, otherwise they would
not be in order" Mr.. y. proceeded, when the
Vice President again interrupted him, and IN
formed him that "no remark in reply to the SEN
ilcman from Pa upon tot question, could be adj.
mitted." The power of the chair, as here laid
down, was not controrerted, and the Senate
then was composed Of as able and distinguished
members During the discussion of these reso'
lutions) as at any previous or subsequent pc
Rod l will only enumera;e such men as De
Witt Clinton, James Ross, Stephen 1. Mason,
Governor Morris, w. G. Nicholas, and MIR.
Breckenridge"

whom Beauchamp tmpered, through his wife,
TO swear against Mr. Darby, and by duplicating
him in the murdes of Col. Sharp, TO save him
self, has since the execution Of Beauchamp,
been shot. 1, was for the use of Capt. Low
tn, Beauchamp prepared the manuscript evil
deuce, Of the ingenuityof which, we have given
our readers an account before. Had Low yield
ed to the solicitations OF Mrs. B. we think from
the testimony we have seen, that Beauchamp
comply, and becoming a witness on the part OF
The prosecution, and using BIS manuscript a
gainst him sealed his fate.
