Congress that il might be passed into . Law

there is the Sub Treasury bill Of this session,

is the Joint resolution, in the identical terms
of that section, substituted by the Senate, on

ARRIVAL OF THE FRENCH SHIPS OF
WAR.-Thc French line Of battle ship
LHercule, Commodore easy, and sloop
of War Favoritc, Captain Rosanal, ar
rived in our harbor on Monday morning
last the former about Z, and the latter
about 8 O o'clock-thrcc days from Hamp-
ton Roads. The arrival Of these noble
foreign ships Of War in our waters is
quite an era in our history-a similar
event has not transpired since the arri-
val of the French fiigate Meduse in
i796.
On the morning Of their arrival, the
weather was delightfully."- pleasant, the
wind blowing a gentle breeze from the
southwest, and their appearance, as
they approached the harbor with all sails
set, looming up in the distance, was
truly grand and imposing. On drop
ping their anchors, back of Fort VOL
colt, the full Band on board the ship
L'Hcrcule struck up their "spirit-stir-
ring notes of martial harmony" which
added much to the effect of the scene.
In the afternoon, at 4 o'clock, sa-
lutes were exchanged by the ship and
Artillery Company, under COL Swan,
in behalf of the town, from prominent
point on Goat Island.-Also between
the ship and Revenue Cutter Vigilant
while at the same time, the bells of
the several Churches rang loud and
grateful peal of welcome.
The salute by the Artillery was fired
from their brass field pieces, which they
conveyed to the Island, by permission,
for that purpose. Many ladies and gen
tlcmen accompanied the troops to the
Island to witness the salutes from the
ramparts Of the Fort-a fine situation
to observe the firing from the ship.
The officers of the Navy residing at
this place have paid we understand their
respects to the Commodore on board
and many Of our citizens have likewise
already visited the ship. As might have
been expected from the known polite
ness of the nation, they were most cor.
daily received and every attention and
civility paid them. We learn that a
general invitation has been given to
such of our fellow citizens to visit them
as are desirous of doing SO. 1t is in
deed worth the while Of any one who
has never been on board well appoint
ed ship of war to visit these magnificent
specimens ofnaval architecture. Those
who have never had the opportunity can
have but very inadequate idea of a
floating castle in which a thousand liv-
ing souls arc congrcgated, surrounded
by many of the conveniences enjoyed
on shore, and by all the glittering show
and implements of War. .s =.
