Soiree one evening, given by Of our
most respectable and wealthy citizens, after the usu
al entertainments of the evening over the gid.
iy throns, composed mostly Of young females, anus
cd themselves with the telling Of fortunes. The
young lady who per formed the part offortune teller
sas one, who TO the vivacity of rich and original
mind added that sparkling wit and witchery OF per-
son, which calls forth the admiration Of the votaries
ofbeauty and to her did the Honourable Philip
Dorvle appeal, for a developemeut Of his future
destiny. The oracle unhesiatngly commenced the
ask, and after consulting her cards, commenced
thus" You an impostor-you now sur
rounded by the ministers ofjustice. and very soon
viii the consables conduct YOU to PRISON, where
YOU must be kept until you have expiated the
crimes you have committed upon the public."-
Although this giving out, was nothing but the
IDLE emanations ofa giddy young girl. the Honour.
oble Philip Dorvilie, took it all as sterling coin,
fresh from the mint, ofthose who have an idea or
two, about the affairs of futurity," and without
more ado, he informed his friends that it would be
very necessary for him 10 visit Boston. On his ar
iva in that city, he made himself acquainted with
~
small sums TO them Of great importance; and
thus stored, he directed his steps for New York,
where he took passage for England, under
sImed name, and finally succeeded in gaining that
oil, which his existence had libeied, and which
would blush to own character SO infamous and
despcable.

| In his manners. Nh Dorville was more than Or
dinary prepossessIng, and had he not developed his

was net exactly necessary, it is not known what
'ricks he might have p!ayel upon the public.

at the recollection of the act of impos that
! ilayed upon them, they consoed, with the r..

avty Of his manners. and the credentials he brought
with him, might impose successfully upon any
man : and with equal success palm himself upon

which have been pamed upon the public-the te;

The BosroS CoURIER.--The able and inde.
,endent editor of the Boston Courier. has either IN
,entionally, or unintentionally paid this paper
compliment, for which he will be pleased te ac-
cept our thanks, though his expressions may be
construed into irony; which. according to Pope,
would render bi. Praise undeserued. and /" censnre
most severe" Be this however as il may, we take
the remarks TO which we allude, as they were Of
fcred in all sincerity. We are proud to be called
the "the stoutest OF Mr.. Clay's defenders, and the
more so as we can well remember the day, when
that appeaton could with much more justice, he
applied to Mr.. Buckingham and we assure the
day, resume his sword and buekler, and be found
leading the phalanx. in which his humble friends oi
the Cadet. may hold q subordinate place.

RIGHTs OF REPoRTERs.-We have read with
much amusement debate that occurred in he
Congress ofthe United State, during the last week
the subject Of the rights OF Reporters Of the pro-
ceedings of that great deliberative assembly. It
appears from the debate, that MIR. Weems, mem.
her, from Maryland. had taken great exceptions to
the remarks on the report Of the proceedings Of
Congress, in which he was somewhat interested,
and which were published 10 theAlexandr,a Phenix,
edited by William Thornton, Esq. 10 which il was
laid that a resolution offered by Mr.. Wsems, "would
have been adopted by the Houseit it had been Of.
fered by any other individual"
This was the ground Of the complaint made by
Mr. Weens, and he moved for the consideration Of
an amendment of the fourteenth rule of the House.
relative to the adm ssion Of reporters to the floor
and suggested that the rule be so amended, that
hose personages be allowed their places I" so long
| as they conduct themselves with decorum and
spect to the members in the discharge Of their Of
fetal duties, and do not abuse the privileges au.
| ,norised to oe extended to them" Considerable
debate ensued in which Messrs. Forsyth. of Geor-
| sa, Bartlett, of New Hampshire Weems, Of Mary.
land, Hamilton, of South Carolina, and Mitchell Of
Tennessee, participated all Of whom, with the ex.
ception of the mover, objected to the consideration
of the proposition and agreed that when attempt
to draw line of demarkaton betw cen the liberty
and ceniousness Of the press, our liberties are on
the threshold Of destruction, and that printer or
repor.cr is not accountable to the House for what
ever comments may be uttered beyond it. This
was as it should be, and although we are willing
TO admit that the remarks made by the Editor OF
the Alexandra Phenix, were exceedingly rude and
improper, we cannot conceive that he was II: ell
answerabe to the House for any part ofhIs conduct,
which did not disturb its deliberations, which
occurred beyond its walls. If Mr.. Weems was
uggreved or libelled, his remedy was at common
law, and could be ob'a,ned in Court of Justice,
but we cannot conceive that the House had any Ju-
rsdction over the
1t is our humble opinion that any man, who has
mind to report the proceedings Of legislative bo-
dy has an undoubted right 10 DO so and that long
as the people Of this country rule body flegi;-
lators possess the power of contracting the freedom
of the press and the free expression Of Individual
{, opinion-and that no legislative body in this coun-
try have the power TO expel reporter, SO long as
he behaves himself in decorous manner and we
further do contend that the United States Congress
have not the right to punish an individual Tor ex-
pressinp his free and unbiased sentiments relative
e to their transactions.

We never vet have been convinced OF ihc i'm
proprlcie or Injustice of the citizens of the State
OF Delaware, ar any others, in expressing their
decided dsapprobaton Of the Resolutions Of the
virginia Legislature DENYING The right of the

erroneous subycrsi,c Of vital principle Of the
Constitution, and injurious to State ana indivdu
al interests, we are not only justfablc in reproba
ting them but would, if we neglected so to do. be
devoid OF an independent patriotism. The United
states are Confederation bound together by the
strongest moral obligations they arr as one fam
