Resolred, That Committee to consist

tess, setting forth the evils ofthe exist

odification Of the same, as shall be con-
stent with the purposes of revenue, and
Iual in its operation on the different
hrts of the U. s. and on the various in

That the said Committee he instructed d

That the present Tariff System is un-

nee its tendency is to disturb the hnr-

Tue TREASURY AND THE PUBLIC DEBT.
"A leading feature in Gen. Jackson's
policy is the speedy extinction of the
Public Debt. BY the official notices
which have just appeared, it will be seen
that the new Secretary of the Treasury,
Mr.. McLane, is cooperating heartily in
the accomplishment of the Presidents
views. He has already given notice for
the payment Of six millions Of dollars on
the lst of January next: and we under
stand he has purchased Of the Bank of
the United States, on favorable terms,
the whole ofthe Public Debt held by that
institution, amounting to several millions;
sothat the Public Debt which will have
been paid off, during the first six months
of his administration of the Treasury,
will considerably exceed nine millions Of
dollars.

from the Treasury Department, that,

1t must be truly gratifying every honest and intel
Hgent man, to contrast the present hourshng condition
of Ant-masonry, with what it was, when the Leroy
convention sat in fearful and tid council nthe state
OF New York Then Masonry Divine" was censu-
red in the low whispers of timorous solictude--Now,
the allegations of moral turpitude and henous crime,
characterized by the open confidence of conscious
truth and justice. Then the presumptuous claims Of
Masonry, had long been tacitly sanctioned by too
credulous community. we fearkessiy and sue
cessay challenge the truth of masonic traditionthe
utility of masonic science, and the moral and religious
character of its adherents and advocates. Them the
formidable array of the tmystic tie impressed the
public mind with "dread alarm, and by its mystic
rious errors suppressed the half uttered accusation
Now, the speli' is broken-the monster exposed
to full view, and look at it. with fear but
with unmixed adherence and disgust. We now have
implicit confidence in the eventual determination of
the detestabie impostor. That this will be effected,
have the most ndubable evidence, not only in the
'unspeakable importance of the cause, but in the
transcendent talent, and extended influence of many
of its advocates and the wisdom and patriotism of the
American people. Already we behold the prin-
cples of good cause, sweeping the face of North
America with the force of eternal and retbutive JUS

as he fell mortally wounded in duel with
Major Biddle-what aperversion of the word:
what an insult offered to the name of MAN !;
two beings endowed by their Creator with a
sense of right and wrong; understanding as
they must have done, that the laws Of God and
their country, were opposed to the murderous
and barbarous practice of duelling, and yet, 10
meet with the full purpose that one should fall
to appease the blind fury of the other, is pa
radox mercy revolts at. Has not God fixed
his everlasting canon against such acts' Have
not the laws of our country forbidden it! Does
not the perverted word honor forbid it? Why
then is It practised? IT'S ignorance founded
upon a misconception of the words insult and
honor. We sympathize with the friends and
relatives of both the deceased we feel for them
on such heart rending calamity, yet we should
not withhold our detestation and adherence Of
Ia practice, which places MAN, the proudest Of
Gods works, upon level with the tiger; trans
forms the gentleman to the savage, and sinks
the word honor to the meaning of that of muir
der.

From the Netv York Daily Sentinel
!, LATE FROM EUROPE

Nep York, Oct. 25.
BY the arrival of the ship Extio, Urquhnrt, from
Havre, the editors Of the Courier & Enquirer, have
received French papers TO the 18th Sept, We take
from the Courier of this morning the following.
q POLAND. a.tf
From Poland there IS nothing definitiye on which
dependence can be placed. The Moniteur Of the
9Th, closed an interesting article on the events in
Warsaw, with the following statement Of the siua,
ton of the two armies al the latest dates from the
seat of war. a. sH
The head quarters Of the Poles are established al
one Of the gates Of Warsaw, and the different corps
OF the army are concentrated at short distance
Marshal Paksewitch, who has been Joined by q
part of the division Of Gen. Rudiger, is encamped
at distance of one or two leagues. Nevertheless
1t is not believed that he will attack. Until now
there has been netting but skiraishes Of no import
lance. ea MOO 1 -st AL .s 800
Two corps have been sent off by the Poles, one.
Ito the Paatnate Of Podaches, the other to the Pal
atlnate Of Plosk. The FIRST which is the most con-
siderable, is commanded by Gen. Ramarene
This expedition, by compelling General GaIowil
to leave Warsaw, has already given an opportunitY
to introduce into that place olerable large guam
ty oil provisions. and thus TO increase The Of
IproloBging the contest. s
report prevailed, however, that on the Goth. in
The evening, the Russians had returned in force to
Minsk, and that he was fighting there notwithstond
ing iscertain, that the greatest portion of the. Po
lish army-that which is leaning on the intrench.
ments of Warsaw--has not yet had serious en-.
lgagement AS it can hardly at present act on the
offensive, barracks of wood are erecting for the
troops under the cannon Of the Notifications.
Such is the critical but still imposing state of the
Polish army. What will be the issue of the heroic
struggle? We venture to say that it is not yet decid
ed, il order can continue TO be maintained in the ci
lty, if the new head Of the Government displays i'll
flexible firmness.
