rived it from our fathers over the water, and
it now begins to flourish vigorously in our
soil. 1t is quite pursuit-the search for it
occupies large portion of life, and requires
much toll and pains-taking. When it does
come, and comes in its perfection, it is a
high and satisfying enjoyment. 1t causes a
man to look upon the world, away from any
malign influence to be filled with the ut
most complacency, and, unless he be of a
highly selfish cast, to endeayour that others
may enjoy the same "high and palmy state"
Pardon me, Messrs. Editors, for this intro
ductory flourish, for it is only Introductory
to few words upon the comforts of publick
house, Pray what greater comfort is there
than, after long, dusty, dreary ride in a
warm day, or weary ride in cold day,
that makes you almost to perish, to find a
good landlord and excellent accommodations
at the inn where you stop: at such a one,
for instance, as the house of Col. Townsley,
in Templeton ? Having occasion, during
the last week, to go some distance to the
west, took the opportunity of stopping at
his house, of which had heard no little
praise. Twas not disappointed f; indeed my
expectations were more than realized. Ev-
cry thing that is placed before you is served
up in excellent style and with the most COM
mendable neatness. Nor isneatness confin-
ed to the table-you find it every where
the chamber, the bed linen of the whitest and
finest, the beds of the best, all show an en-
ergetic head of the establishment. The bar
keeper, and those who wait upon you, are
prompt, attentive, and civil, and the ostler
takes the very best care of your horse, with
out obliging you to be continually watching
him, to see that he does not neglect his du-
ty. In short, the attention throughout, and
in the smallest things, is exceedingly graft
flying to the traveller, and could hardly be
exceeded at home, among his nearest friends,
with those who are anxiously consulting his
comfort and convenience, and endeavouring
to anticipate his wants. OF the very many
public houses at which have been obliged
to stop in my peregrinations for the last few
years, have met with none where l have
discovered greater neatness, attention, and
assiduity to please, than are found at Col.
Townships. Ifyou or any of your friends,
Messrs. Editors, have occasion to pass
through Templeton, be persuaded, if you
regard that second law of nature called COM
fort, to stop at COL Townships. Y.

CONGRESS.

THURSDAY, May L.. In the Senate, the
resolution respecting the adjournment of
Congress was postponed to Wednesday.
Mr.. Benton sresolutions relative to the pub
lie lands were considered and laid on the
table. Some discussion took place on the
bill making appropriations for the public
buildings; after which the bill was pass
ed.
In the House, the resolution relating to
adjournment was laid on the table by a
vote of 81 to 70. The bill on the subject
of the Tennessee grants was also laid on
table, without debate-ayes 1I2, noes 81.
The House resolved itself into a commit
tee of the whole on the state of the Union,
and took up in succession, the bill for as
certalning the latitude of the southern
bend, or extreme flake Michigan, and of
certain other points, for the purpose here
after offixing the true northern boundary
line of the States of Ohio, Indiana, and
lllinois-the bill making appropriations
for the Indian department, as amended by
the Senate bill to authorize the build
ing of lighthouses, &c.-a bill to pur-
chase and distribute the eth volume of the
Laws of the United States-a bill regu-
lating the commercial intercourse with
the Islands Of Martinique and Gaudaloupe
"a bill to amend the acts concerning nat
uraliZation-a bill to authorize the i'm
proving of certain harbors, the building
of piers, &C.; all of which were passed
through committee, and reported, some
with amendments, and the others without
amendment. The House was then occu-
pied in the discussion of the two amend
ments made by the Senate in the bill
making appropriations for the Indian de-
partment, in both of which the House re-
fused to concur.
The bill authorizing a Rail Road
through the District of Columbia became
a law, by its passage in the House of Rep
resentatives. The construction of this
road will be of great benefit to this Dis
trict, in consequence of the increased IA
cilities which it will afford to the inter-
course between Washington and Balti-
more. In effect, it will bring the two cit
les within twelve miles of each other, and
will make proporionate reduction in the
price of transportation and freight.
FRIDAY, May 2.-In the Senate, the
Committee Of Finance reported in favour
of receding from the amendment Of the
Senate to the Internal Improvement bill,
limiting the appropriation of 10000 dol
lars for surveys, to such surveys as have
been commenced. After debate of six
hours, the Senate receded from their first
and second amendments, but refused to re-
cede from their third and fourth, by vote

work, which is now publishing, if faithful
and authentic, will be of immense interest and
value. 1t may crafty the curiosity of some
to know who the actual sovereign of Turkey
is, which may be learnt from the follow
ing extract from a late English paper:-
The reigning Sultan, Mahmoud H. was born in
1885; descended in direct line from OSman l, foun-
der Of the dynasty; and is of the 18th generation
He is the thrtieth sovereign of the race that now
regns over the Turks and has for his sole heir FRINGE

Sultans, one died prisoner in foreign land, one
fell on the field of battle, and nine were assasslnated
by their successors and rebels. The present Sultan
is an extremely active man. who orders and olrects
every thing himself"
CHEROKEE ALPHABET. Among the facts
in proof of the rapid progress of the Chero-
kee Indians in civilization, and the arts of
life, may be ranked as most important, the
invention of letters. A short time since we
gave an account of the establishment of
newspaper among the Cherokees, print
ed in their own language. The mode of
writing this language is a recent invention
of native Cherokee, named George Guess.
We have not seen the Cherokee paper, but
have in our possession a copy of the alpha
bet invented by Guess, of which, to CRAFTY
the curiosity of our readers, we have made

The MONEY MARKET. The extraordi-
nary scarcity of money for month or two
past appears to be unparalleled, though the
distress which the pressure has occasioned
has been much less than might have been
anticipated. Considerable excitement has
been produced in Portsmouth, N. H., by a
number of failures there, but the difficulties
it is said, will be surmounted without caus-
ing any material distress.
The failure of Mr.. J. B. Wood, a broker,
IN very extensive business, in Providence,
R. |. last week, is destined to carry much
misery and distress in its train. He was a
dealer in lottery tickets, and proprietor of
stages and steamboats,, and so great was the
confidence reposed in him that vast number
OF labourers, mechanics, &c. had deposited
their earnings in his hands, some of them
their all, believing themselves in entire
safety. The amount for which he has failed
is said to be from two to three hundred
thousand dollars. This unlocked for failure
produced great CONSERVATION in Providence.
The following facts respecting it are from
the Literary Cadet:
Z" The calamity falls principally on the heads of
INDECENT widows, poor and industrious young girls
who had by their incessant toiings, saved little
and had hoped to see it accumulate
The sufferers were seen, forming little clubs in
the streets, all day on Monday, each anxious tc
know if something could not be saved from the
wreck of ruin, and each amenting his hard fortune
Taken collectively, they have formed multitude
and more disconsolate and abject multitude wa.
