Envoy, is also passenger in the Lady Adams,
and will proceed to Washington with Mr. Hamm,
for the purpose oflayng the whole before our
Government he being the bearer OF the Treaty
and Convention in the Spanish Language.
'sIt will be found that in the performance OF
his highly responsible duties, few men have had
more embarrassment and difficulties to encoun-
ter and contend with, and few have more per-
fectly accomplished the objects Of their mission
than Mr. Hamm How gratifying therefore 1t
must be, on his return home after SO long an alb
sence, to congratulate with kindness, and receive
with hearty welcome the public servant who
has thus so successfully and honorably filled the
most sangune expectations ofhS old friends and
acquaintance, in rendering such essential and
important services to his country, by firmly es-
tabshing with most fourishing section of the
South American continent, relations so fatter
ing and encouraging to our enterprising and
commercial community
And allow me to add, that to have discharg
ed the difficult and complicated obligations of
Foreign Minister, particularly in South Anne
RIGA, where revolutionary movements are so
frequent among people so peculiarly consti-
tuted and this being the first Treaty that the Re-
public of Chill has ever entered nto,) to the en-
tire satisfaction of the Government by which he
was appointed-and that also, at which he has
so long resided, is truly public claim to respect
and confidence which few diplomatic agents
have the abilities and rare good fortune to
achieve.
C. Mr. Hamm's friends will rejoice to hear of
his safe arrival, in good spirits, and his health
much benefited, by the sea voyage; and that at
ter having enriched his mind with the treasures
found in the Southern hemisphere, he may re-
turn to his much loved adopted State, Ohio SO
improved in health as to serve his country again,
is the sincere wish of one who is well acquainted
with his frmness Of character personal merits,
his frank, patriotic purposes, and safe Judgment

In the Senate yesterday, Mr.. WEBSTER
from the Committee on Finance made Repor
on the subject of the Removal of the DeposlteS
The Report is a most able and conclusive one,
in opposition to that measure. 1t occupied bet
ter than an hour in reading it, Upon the mo-
ton to print 5000 extra copies of this Report, a
most interesting and animated debate took place
lin which Messrs FORSYTH, WEBSTER,
CLAY, WRIGHT, WILKINS, and others, took
part. The debate involved the whole subject.
At half past four O'Clock, the motion to print
was agreed to, and the Senate adjourned.
In the House of Representatives, after the pas
sing of number of private bills, Mr.. ARCHER
resumed and concluded his speech in opposition
to the Removal Of the Deposite. After he had
concluded, Mr.. PEYTON, of Tennessee, took
the floor in favor Of the Removal; but before he
concluded. the House adjourned.

RENO Dow, well known 1tinerant Preacher
He was one Of the most remarkable men of this
age for his zeal and labours in the cause of re-
ligion. He was native of Coventry, Con-
necticut; and in early life became deeply i'm
pressed by the truths ofreligion, and felt urged,
by motives irresistible, to devote his life to the
preaching ofthe Gospel in various parts of the
world His eccentric dress, and style Of preach
ing, attracted great attention; while his shrewd-
ness, and quick discernment of character gave
him no inconsiderable influence over the multi
tudes that attended on his ministry. He travel
led extensively in England and Ireland. and re-
peatedly visited almost every portion ofthe Uni
ted States. He had been public preacher for
more than thirty years, and it is probable that
more persons have heard the Gospel from his
lips, than from those Of any other individual
since the days of Whitfield.
He wrote several books, particularly histo-
ry of his own life, so singularly eventful, and
full Of vicissitude. His purity Of purpose, and
integrity and benevolence of character, can
hardly be questioned He was Methodist in
principle, and though not in connexion with that
society, was held in esteem by many of that bo-
dy. wanderer through life, it is believed he
was sincere Christian pilgrim, seeking hea-
venly country, and that he now rests in the CT
ty of God.-Nat mt

Arrival Of the Hon. Mr.. HAMM from Chill
The brig Lady Adams of Baltimore, anchored
in Hampton Roads on Saturday evening last,
in the remarkably short passage of70 days from
Valparaiso, via Coquimbo. Among the pas
sengers in the L. A was the Hon. JOHN HAMu,
Charge d'affaires of the United States to the Re-
public of Chill, who came up to this place last
evening in the steam boat Pocahontas, for Bal
timore, via Annapolis. We have been oblg-
ingly favoured with the following extract of a
letter from passenger on board the Lady.
"Mr. HAMM is the bearer of the Treaty of
Commerce and Navigation which he concud-
ed with the CHILEAN Government some time ago,
and which was duly ratified by the President
and Senate of the United States;-but the time
limited for the exchange of notifications at
w Washington having expired, and sundry
amendments having been proposed by the Chill
ian Congress, it became necessary, as learn, to
enter with the Plenipotentiary of Santiago into
an explanatory Convention, and to have again
tbe whole matter submitted to the CHILEAN Con-
Dress for their appreciation. These Prelimina-
Tv arrangements were all satisfactorily settled
in November last, by the ratification ofthe trea-
tv as well as explanatory Convention, and an
enyov was appointed to proceed directly to
Washington for the purpose OF exchanging the
notifications and reside near the Government.

Mr. EDlToR:-I see from your paper that the
friends of several gentlemen have proposed
them as candidates for the suffrages of the peo-
pie of Fairfax County, at the ensuing April cleo
ton: and as the time has arrived when the poll
teal principles of each candidate should be
well known and understood by the people,
have taken the liberty Of calling upon them,
through the medium of your press, to know
their sentiments upon the important subject
which now agitates the minds of the people.
= Mr. Editor, we feel insecure-we know not
where we stand The commercial spirit and
enterprise of the country is destroyed: all bust
ness is at stand: dsnay and ruin stare upon
us from every quarter; and every thing portends
the near approach, not only of theruinous con-
sequences of a deprecated paper currency, but,
Mr. Editor of the entire destruction OF our hard
earned liberty-for all history, the example OF
other nations, teach us lesson not to be mis-
understood; it teaches of the danger of permit
ting the control of the public revenue to go out
of the hands of the immediate representatives
of the people, even for limited time. At one
time, liberty itself was in danger of becoming
extinct, in the whole British empire, from this
very cause: and am well convinced, that the
Representatives of the People of these United
States will see the Importance of preserving
the power over the revenue in their own hands,
which has been placed there by the people Of
the United States;-if they do not, let them sane
ton this dangerous assumption of power-this
gross violation of chartered rights and let them
permit Andrew Jackson, now dizzy and drunk
with power (Which in an evil moment was COM
mitted to him. to assume the responsibility
of usurping powers not vested in him by the
laws or the Constitution, what, let me
ask, will there be to prevent him from placing
crown upon his head and transmitting it to his
successor, the present heir apparent
But, Mr.. Editor there is some consolation
that one portion Of the United States will not
quietly submit to this outrage upon their rights
and liberty. Already has Virginia, good old
Virginia, stepped forward, in all her majesty,
and snatcbed the bleeding Constitution from
language plain and unequivocal, that he has vi
olated the Constitution, and trampled upon the
| rights of the people. And, Mr.. Editor, as well
know that it is the wish of the people of Fairfax
that Virginia may always present an unbroken
front in resisting encroachments and assump-
tons of undelegated powers, from every quar-
ter, am induced to ask ofthe gentlemen now
before us their sentiments in relation to the Re-
moval of the Deposites from the United States
Bank A VOTER.
