We are yet without any official information
from Portsmouth, on the subject of the Cholera;
and the reports therefron are so various and con.
Trajectory that we de- m it worse than useless to
give them publication. Several new cases, we
hear, have occurred si,ce our last, the exact
number Of which, or her result we are unable
TO state.
We should be truly thankful to the medical
gentlemen. or those charged with the superin-
fendence OF the Health OF that town. for regular
dai'S reports of the state Of the prevailing Epi.
demle-the number Of new cases, deaths, &c.

From comparative statement of the revenue
derived under the old Tariff and the rates of du'
ties established BY the Act of the last session, pub
lished in the Globe. it appears that the nett reve'
nue. from duties will be about eleven millions OF
dollars, which will diminish the receipts of the
Treasury between six and seven millions. Yet
with this the Nulliiers will not be satisfied.

The Indian Talk, inserted in our last, is cha
raeterisiic. The cunning and duplicty of the sa-
wages are not altogether unaccompanied by proofs
Of wisdom and sagacity. Notwithstanding the
criticisms which have appeared on Mr.. Cooper's
Indian characters. judging from the specimen to
which we refer-he has been true to the life in
many Of the scenes which he has drawn in his no..
wells.

change of opinion on the part Of those who heard
him, for 1t Was evident that impression prevailed
in Its favor. He looked upon it fiscal measure
las measure drawing broad distinction between
poverty and the possession of certain amount of
propertyasa measure, in fact, forming part of the
present system of taxation. MIR. d. adverted to the
conduct pursued by Virginia and North Carolina
with respect TO their citizens who had served int the
armies of the revolutions; those States had allotted
lands for their support. South Carolina, also, had
provided for her troops, whether of the continental
line or the militia-she had paid pensions TO them
for fifty years, and it would undoubtedly be deem
ed oppressive that she should now be called upon
to add her contributions to the general fund for the
support OF all the revolutionary soldiers of all the
States. MIR. Davis animadverted on the peculiar
hardship with which it would bear on the State OF
South Carolina, which, during the revolutionary
struggle, was not visited by one invasion of the
enemy only, but was swept by the tide of war al
most from the commencement to the close of the
contest. He concluded by repeating his motion fol
the committee to rise, he wished to present hi.
views of this mammoth bill, but withdrew it for {
moment, at the request of Mr.. Mason, OF Virginia

Ger highland, lawn and heather.
I'D be a ray--G lunar rGy,
Rejecting Sol's bright beams;
Aud nightly stray the miiky- ,cGy,
To waken lovers dreams.
I'D be a ray-a stellar rdu
To ride on oceans breast;
When lightninss play amid the spray.
And calm the soul to rest.
I'd be ray-thc morning ray
To take the first sly peep;
Then like q fay so bright and gay,
I'd wake the world from sleep.
I'd be Il ray-thc cvcning rag,
Ger earth SO mildly beaming;
And calm surrey twilight grGy,
Each hill and iceberg cleaning.
I'd be ray-the summer rap
To ride on golden wing;
Or sweetly ioy on new mown hay,
And hear blythe maiden sing.
I'd be ray-ihe autumn rag.
To cheer mid natures gloom;
And light the tcdy when holiday
Makes man forget his doom.

Der glittering worlds to roam;
Fhcn love obey and quiet stay,
Upon my hearth at home.
I'd be ray-the street spring ray,
To CLEAN in April showers;
And view for aye the beauteous May,
And sport among the flowers.
I'D be aray-soh Venus' rdy
To shine in ladies' eyes;
Who nc'er say nay when Loves tile prey,

"As we anticipated, the Committee OH Manufac-
lures have just reported Mr. Clays Resolution i'm the
form of Bill, taking off the duties entirely from the
approached articles, Teas, Spices, &c.-and leaving
the protected articles, Cottons, Wooens, Iron, &c.
wholly untouched. This report Immediately blew
up u flame IN the Senate, which has been burning
hercey even to this moment. Mr.. Forsyth has NOV
ed to re-commh The Bin, with view to have the other
articles introduced into it. The reason given by
MIR. Dckerson, the Chairman of the Com,sttee,
why this course has been pursued, is that so much
delay must take place before any plan could be ma
ured for reduction of duties on the protected ar
ncles, or before it could be decided whether any
duction should take place, that it might prevent ann
thing from being done during The present Sessio,,-and
tnat, therefore, without saying at this time whether
any such reduction could or would be made,-they
thought proper to advise separate action on the u-
projected articles. The re-commitment was adVo-
cated by Messrs. Hayne, Forsyth, Miller, King,
Benton, &C. on the ground that TO act first separate
~ on MI Gays Resolution, will preclude all hope
OF any reduction on the other arcles-It is consi-
dered by all the Southern members, that if this
course is SUBSTANCE by the Senate there will be an
end of all hope mere. On this point, very strong
opinions have 'ieen expressed i'm the course of the
debate Mr.. hlng of Alabama, has denounced this
scheme IN the strongest terms, and among other
thngs sad IN substance, 81 declare before God land
TINS Is no gdScOndde that If this course is pursued
the South will not submit TO it. We have asked fol
justice, and we are received with insult If cannot
and will not be endured" .lr. Benton declared
' nat INC scheme was so monsrous, that when pub
llshed to the world, it will be met with the execra-
ton OF the American people" Whatever may be
tue late OF tins notion, it is certain that this Bill will
Dring up the question in shape which will leave no
doubt OF the effect of the measure. What we have
most to fear is deiuSive arrangement. But this
proposition no one can possibly misunderstood The
Committee on Manufactures doubtless intend il ne
test question; for as to the promise held out that
some further reduction may hereafter take place no
one is deceived by it here, and presume Me people
,o'H not be deceired6 yd. We shall now very soon
