To the many disgraceful occurrences at Wash

of the Senate between Mr.. RANDOLPH and Mr..
LLoyD-bolh old men, whose passions should
not have been so quickly roused-men oil edu-
cation and experience, who should long since
have learnt the art Of governing their temPers
and behaving themselves properly in all situa-
tions-men OF high character, who in their ex-
allied career should have held forth TO the young
and less distinguished, spo,ess example of I'M
deyiating rectitude. But alas! How easily are
men excited; and when once the helm Of reason
is resigned, how are they bore along land 10 what
perils are they liable the tempest of angry con-
teution. With respect TO what took place on
Thursday last, above alluded to-after calling
the attention of our readers to full report Of
all the circumstances, copied from tn. National
InteAigenosr, and inserted in our preceding CO.
lumns, we must decline making any remark
which Nigh, be construed to palia'e The Of

sensible to the stab given by such scene to the
dignity Of the United States Senate-and If the
Presiding Officer has no authority TO maintain

From the Trenton True american.


The eccentricities and the vindictive and
slanderous propensities Of John Randolph, will
furnish fund for anecdote, TO the present age
and to pos,eriiy. They who come after US will
indeed wonder that such strange apology for a
man, should have been so long an incumbent Of
exalted office, at the expense OF the feelings and
the fame, OF so many worthy individuals, and
oil the respect and dignity Of our Legislative
bodies. They will ask, as they read the tar
nished page Of our country's history, why is
the Senate chamber of the United States, con-
verted into school room for scandal Why
was private character brought on such an are
ma, to be wantonly assailed and mangled by the
ruffian tongue, the tomahawk and scalping
knife, Of descended savage, whose conduct
has disgraced his origin? Why were public
characters branded with the basest crimes, and
men in Office and out of office, barbarousy
dragged to the altar Of moral immolaton, and
there sacrificed without mercy TO propitate
the fierce resentments Of hater of our race?
Why was murder committed on unofftnding
reputation in unnumbered instances, while the
victims were precluded defence; and while
the peace, good order, harmony and dignity of
an illustrious public body Composed of the
very conscript fathers of the nation,) were
trampled upon and outraged with IMMUNITY?
Such would doubtless be the enquiries OF a no.
vice in our history, who should read ii some
years hence. And what would be his surprise
also, when he was told that there were mep
who defended all these extravagancies, insults
and barbarities as beiug the "rights OF debate"
the 'freedom of speech" the privilege of
member of the Senate" and other equally love-
ly epithe's of apology; and who also not only
commended every outrage, but actually abused,
and affected to despise those who would not
unite TO applaud, or who dared to condemn
them. Sueh is the lamen,abe picture that Is
preparing for the eyes Of posterity, with so
much skill and assiduity. And such ale the
examples, and lessons of instruction, which
some blind zeaIots of opposition are furnish
ing for the benefit Of those who are yet 10 live.

1t suggested tina, in the Albany Argus, that
Mr.. SERGEANT will sail from New-York for Pa
MAMA early in June. This the New-York Are-
srican apprehends to be. mistakes. and says
"The decision on the appointment was so long
and injuriously delayed, that it would now be at
the mos, extreme and unnecessary hazard oflife
that men from more northern climes should be
dispatched to Panama, and we presume there
fore that they viii not go till the fall The
sloop Of war Lexington may, we conjecture, be
sent to apprise Mr. Anderson, tina, his colleague,
Mr.. Sergeant, will be detained here until that
time, in order that he may regulate his proceed
ings accordingly"
"The appointment Of Mr. Gallatin has drawn
out more or less comment" says the Albany
Argus, "generaliy favorable, but in some in
stances exhibiting the (smothered) asperity and
prejudice Of other times" As far as we have
observed any asperity, i, is exhibited by the op-
position prints, some Of which have been insin-
waiting that Mr.. Gallaiin has been bought Tha,
however, might have been expected.

was the character, the original and interesting
character, of the native Indians SO well, sotruly,
and SO 1ividly drawn as in his pages. They
are not heroes OF romance, talking Cockney

the woods, whose wild passions. ike race-hor-
ses, burst into fercer flight for their tempo

skill with which the characters are drawn and
developed, is where the authors talents have
been the most strikinsly successful The Eng
