From The Fincnstie Democrat.

Alta meeting Of the Presbytery of Licking
ton, held in the town of Fincastle, on the 22d
day Of April, ISL, the following preamble
and resolutions were offered and unanimous.
ly adopted.
1t having pleased Almighty God to re.
move, by death, the venerable Chief Magis-
trate Of this nation, WILLIAM HENRY
HARRISON, this Presbytery deem it an
occasion which calls for some expression of
sentiment from the representatives of the
Church. And this Presbytery having learn
ed that, with reference to this melancholy e.
vent, the President of the u. S. has recon-
mended to the nation day of solemn Fast
ing and Prayer, in acknowledgment of the
humiliation with which this dispensation
should be received. in depreciation of the fur
ther infliction of Divine Judgment, and in
supplication for the smiles OF Providence on
our nation;
Therefore Resoipcd,
j. That this Presbytery cordially unite
with their fellow-citizens in other parts of
the Union, in humbly and submissively bow
ing TO this dspensation of God, and in ex-
pressing their deep grief on an occasion of
such severe national calamity; and in ten
dering to the family ofthe deceased President
their sincere sympathy.
3. That in view of our national sins, and
Just exposure to other and more severe tokens
OF the just judgment Of God, this Presbytery
cordially adopt the recommendation OF Presi-
dent Tyler; and enjoin on all the Churches
under its care the observance of the 18th day
of May next, as day of Fasting, llumilia-
ton and Prayer To God, that through his
mercy in Christ, we may be preserved as a
nation from farther affective dispensations Of
his Providence, that we may enjoy peace and
security in all our borders, and above all, be
favored with pure, extensive and powerful re-
yivals Of true goodness; that we may be ex-
allied by righteousness as nation whose

NEW York, April 25.
A more careful reading of the foreign pa
pers received by the Great Western gives but
little information in addition to that l sent
you yesterday, except in regard to the Presi-
dent. There was more apprehension than ]
had supposed for the safety Of the steamer,
and on the 9TH. 25 per cent. insurance was
paid.
The arrest Of McLEoD was named in the
House of Commons on the 9th instant. A
member from Ireland had called for the read
ing of the correspondence between the u. S.
and Great Britain upon the subject of the
frontier troubles. Viscount PALMeRsroN
suggested the propriety Of Withdrawing his
motion in the present state of the controversy
between the two Governments. The sugges-
ton was well received, accompanied as it
was with an expression of opinion "that both
the Government of the U. S. and that of Eng
land were anxious to bring this matter 10 a
close.'

3. That the Presbytery deem il highly
proper that on that day the ordinary busine IS
Of life be suspended, as far as practicable, in
all our churches, that all the people may have
an opportunity Of assembling in their houses
Of Worship, and uniting in such acts ofhumi-
liation and prayer, and in hearing such dis.
courses as may be suitable to the occasion.
4. That a copy Of these Resolutions be
forthwith furnished for publication in the va.
rious newspapers published within our
bounds, with a respectful request for their in
sertion; and also that they be read before the
Congregations by the Bishop, or officiating
Minister, on some Sabbath previous to the
l4th day Of May.

" We published an article few days
since, stating that according to the Washing
ton Globe, the Supreme Court had "decided
unanimously that Congress has no right, I'M
der the clause of the Constitution giving it
power to regulate commerce among the States,
to prohibit the transportation of slaves from
State to State.'
This is an error. We have before us the
opinion OF the Supreme Court from which
the inference Of the Globe is drawn. 1t is
upon case which came up from the u. S.
Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Lou
isIana. The question involved was the vail
dlty OF a sale of negroes in Mississippi, the
Introduction Of slaves into that State being at
the time prohibited by the State Constitution.
The decision of the Courts below was to this
effect: that the prohibition against the intro
ducfion of slaves did not render void con-
tract OF sale-the crime being complete when
they were introduced. and the owner SO in
trodueing them being liable TO prosecution
lot mlsdemeanor, but not forfeiting his title to
his slaves. 1t appears that the courts decid-
Ell that the constitution was merely directory
TO the Legislature, which at the time Of the
sale had enacted no law in pursuance of the
direction attaching penalties. &c. to perfect
what might seem to be the policy of the State
according to the Constitution. The decision
OF the Circuit Court was affirmed by the SUI
preme Court, which rendered it unnecessary
in the words Of the opinion, "to enquire
whether the article in the Constitution of
Mississippi is repugnantto the Constitution
OF the United States-and indeed such en-
quiry is not properly in the case, as the de-
cislon has been placed entirely upon the con-
struction of the Constitution Of Mississippi"
friend who was present when the opin.
Ion was delivered, informs US that Judges
fancy, McLane, Thompson and McKinly ex-
pressed the opinion, (extra- judcially,) that
Congress had no right to regulate the domes-
tic slave trade between the several States
Judge Baldwin expressed different opn-
ion. Neither Of the other four Judges ex-
pressed any opinion upon the question.

EXTENSIVE SWlNDLING.

A London swindler, named w. NJ. Parker,
with the usual accompaniment Of aliases, and
OF whose embarkation for this country notice
had been given by the London Police, has
succeeded in swindling the Lafayette Bank
at Cincinnati of $4,000, on forged certifi-
cate Of deposite from the Cashier of the Com
mercial Bank of New Orleans. What is
very singular, and shows the consummate art
of the villain, half the certificate of depo site
was forwarded to the Cashier of the Lafayette
Bank in the name ofGeo. o. Hall, the CASH
Ter of the Commercial Bank, more than two
weeks before application was made by Par
ker with the other half for the money; and
the forged letter is found to be written on
precisely the same kind of paper, and with
the same kind of ink used in the Bank, and
in the exact hand of the principal Clerk.
A similar fraud was practised by Parker
on Jacob Little g. Co. Of New York, through
the Bank Of America, in a certificate of de-
poste of the Commercial Bank of New Or
leans for s23,000-and also on the Cashier
of the Bank Of Kentucky, at Louisville, to
the amount of Sl3, 1000. The name assumed
by him in this latter case was Robert Dawson.
The Baltimore Patriot states that he had pro-
cured the half Of one Of his forged certif-
Gates to be forwarded from New Orleans, as
# from the Merchants Bank Of that city, to
he Union Bank Of Baltimore, in the name Of
MIR. Orr, which in due time he called for, but
Tho Union Bank not wanting funds in New
Orleans, he was referred to broker, who
proposed 10 cash it at par-Or, however,
~sntsd q premium, and the broker no; con-
