The duelling bill was not yesterday resumed
as was expected; in lieu Of it, there arose, on a
bill to appropriate $4,000 to Hamden Sidney and
$3.50 to Randolph Academy IN the county OF
Harrison, a debate more extraordinarily discurs-
i've than any other we ever listened to in that
House; embracing the policy of Virginia in re-
gard to her literary institutions, Mr.. Jefferson,
the act of religious freedom, the Presbyterians,
the University, William & Mary and Hamden
Sidney. Mr.. Williams of Harrison aud Mr..
Preston, adverting to the influence of Presbyte-

PEELED by Messrs. Watkins and Venable. Mr..

authorship of the act of religious freedom i'm
peachsd by MIR. Maxwell, INDICATED that claim,
and the University: Mr.. Maxwell disclaimed the
meaning, and s~uloglsed both Mr.. Jefferson and
the University, in a manner worthy of each
Mr.. Semple engaged in the discussion for the pur-
pose of defending William & Mary from the
charge of being influenced by sectarians, which
he understood to be made by Mr.. Watkins. but
which that gentleman disclaimed; and Mr.. Jack
son in moving the indefinite postponement of the
bill, denounced its policy and invoked legislative
patronage for primary schools and the education
of the poor.
The debate was unusually interesting, but as
we humbly conceive, still more disorderly. The
bill was finally postponed-that, however, being
a matter which the speakers did not appear much
to regard.

even till the next day, after the wedding was
over. The doctor claimed instant satisfaction,
spit in his face. at the same time attempted to
draw a large dueIlIng pistol from his bosom, but
was prevented by the by-standers. Bnscoe, be-
inc unarmed. ran into a store, where he procur-
ed a shot gun. and coming out, cried out to clear
the way. At eleven PAGES distance, both raised
their weapons; Briscoe's snapt, and Doctor Moy-
ler's shot Briscoe in the arm and abdomen, and
had drawn another pistol, and was in the act of
firing. when b. had re-cocked his gun, and pre-
pared, which this time went off; the Doctor fell,
mortality wounded; he died the same night. BIS
wounds were slight.
An inquest was held, over the body; and the
verdict OH oath. was, that BriscOe had acted in

Translated from, the Gazette de France, Of Feb
ruary 1O.-The conduc, of the Ministry touch
ing the affairs of Belgium, places the journals
attached to it in the most ridiculous situation. -
Eight days since the Journal DIES DebatS proved
with great deal Of eloquence, that the throne
of Belgium ought to te accepted for the Duke of
Nemours. Then it gave long article to esab
lsh the reverse of the proposition. To-day it is
said, that Teegraphic Despatch has been sent
to annul till further orders, the refusal borne by
the courier. The same journal adds, that al
though it persists in IFS reasonngs for the refusal,
it cannot be disguised, that there is in this refu.
sal something which does not fully satisfy their
ideas upon the subject.
1t appears that on the 9th. the Belgian Depu.
tation in Paris, were officially received by the Mi
mister of Foreign Relations. The interview last
ed two hours, and the gravest questions were un-
der consideration. II, says the Gazette, our in
formation is exact ii will now be proposed to the
Belgic Congress to elect Prince Charles of Ma.
Piles as their King who will espouse the Princess
Mary of France. The Belgic Deputies stated,
that their mission related exclusively to the Duke
of NemOurs.
Pohnd.-The Polish Diet have issued long
answer to the proclamation of General Count
Diebitsch, which is spirited document, and
which concludes as follows. THE Polish ma.
