Several Members of Congress have already
arrived in the City, and there is every appearance
Of full House at the opening. There is gem
eral move in the clearinghouse line, and the note
Of preparation is loud for long Session, and
business time. Indeed we begin to feel that the
approaching storm will bring calm to US -
we need something to cheer us in our misfortunes;
and we know Of nothing better to give our readers
to effect this object than the above, and the
RuMoR OF RESUMPTION IN PHILADELPHIA-
which we copy from the North American:
"a rumor was current in this city yesterday
that it is the intention of the Banks to resume cash
payments on or before the FIRST of January next.
Even the runlor is pleasing, and the consumma-
ton devoutly to be wished But though we
should account this an unfounded report, we can
not but fater ourselves that there is good reason
to believe that these institutions aiming stead
ily at such result, and determined to hasten it
forward as speedily as possible. The communi-
ty seem disposed to bear patiently the misfortune
into which we have fallen, and to abstain from
complaint and reproaches. But they will refuse
to recognise the state of things which now exists
as natural state, or to rest in it as which is
to be permanent. The more earnest our money
ed institutions are seen to be in preparing to re-
deem their notes, the more calmly and nationally
may the People be expected to set themselves
about those precautionary measures which may
ruard us against the recurrence OF similar Gala
nifty"

Representatives of the United States Of finer
ica, in Congress assembled.
Fellow CIr1zENs:-Ihe petition of the under
signed, citizens Of the United States and Of the
state of -, respectfully shows their belief,
that time has now fulfilled the object had in view
by our fathers, at the period Of adopting the con-
stitution, when they gave to Congress the pow
er Of passing laws for the naturalization of for
eigners and your petitioners also show their
belief, that the further admission of foreigners
to participation in the political rights Of native
Americans would be hurtful to the interests Of
our country, and if continued, will, sooner or
later prove destructive to our Republican Institu
tons.
Your petitioners therefore ask the attention of
your honorable body to the various petitions for
repeal of the naturalization laws. which have been
formerly presented TO your honorable body; and
| they further ask your honorable Douy 10 repeai
entirely the laws which now exists in regard to
the naturalization Of foreigners.
We this day publish the form of the petition
to Congress, which has been adopted by the cit-
zens Of Louisiana, praying for repeal OF the
Naturalization Laws. .s +.
It is short, convenient, and comprehensive,
and comprises all that it is necessary to ask on the
subject.
If Congress hearken to the prayer Of the petit
tioners, the wisdom of that body will show them
the necessity of passing such laws as will protect
our country from the influx Of vicious and danger
Gus foreigners, and an enormous unrepresented
population.
| Those who are DESTROYS of repeal of the ma
turalizaton laws IN evcry part Of The United
States, can copy the form from our paper, obtain
signatures and forward to their Representatives
and Senators inv ashingtonClty at the commence
ment Of the approaching session in December
| next.
| We have but one month more to act on this
subject, and it behoves every good citizen to re-
double his exertions, SO as to render our appeal
to Congress powerful and effective.

The Market.

OurCity is dull beyond comparison--that
is TO say, there is nothing doing except in
that line which we shall class as summer
unproftabIes. For instance in
DUsT, there has been much activity dur
ing the'past week. On Wednesday last the
article rose high above its nature and caus-
ed much disaffection among consumers. A
cooling shower, however, would no doubt
settle the market.
JUL1Ps go off without solicitation from
holders, The stock on hand is hardly suf-
fcient TO meet the demand, which is really
so great that the best part of the article is
skaged. ~
sUNsHrNn.-The country is filed with
the article, and our citizens begin to shun
the glittcring temptations presented on every
road and side walk
MErLoNs are readily purchased and quick
ly consumed. Throughout each successive
day we are reminded of the Rhine.
CoRN is taken without objection to price,
and is at dinner time more asked for than
any thing offered, except guaa6O and cEarct.
Some Of the largest dealers become greatly
cOrned every day, but defend themselves
from disgrace by remarking that they got
so on series of corns.

The Presidents late tour in his native
Stafeo

StdGeo
The late effort of Mr.. Van Buren, to make
favorable political in preston by his per-
sonal electioneering in New York, has, we
think, been perfect disappointment. Great
efforts were made by the Office holders to
get up an excitement, and muster train I'd
haloo for thew York, favorite son, = but in
most instances they utterly failed. For in
stance, at ALBANY, the capital ofthe state, a
city of upwards Of thirty thousand inhabi-
tants, the head and centre of sub treasury
ism in the empire state;- there could not be
sepenty persons drumed UP to the meeting
that was to welcome him to the city. The
Office holders had made great effort and
procured the names Of SOC persons, or what
purported to be 800 names, to call the meet
ing; but there could be but a tneagre few,
less than seventy, got together. The Alba
ny Journal thus speaks Of it:
"The day and the hour came. The Hall
was duly lighted. The Collector Of the
Port, the Flour Inspector, with few other
Office holders, were on the spot early, anx-
iously awaiting the arrival Of an enthusiast
tic people, impatient to render honor and
glory to beloved President. But tbey
came not The Office holders organized
themselves into 4 meeting, 10 the expecta-
ton that at least the three hundred who had
signed tile call would attend. But epen
tkey sCere delinquent! Those who called
Others came not themselves!

attempts Of The Office holders to get up d
sensation ID favor Of their Chief Is regarded
