DAGuEERE1YFE MlNATUREs-Our citizens
will be pleased to learn that the Messrs. Chill
TON, who have been engaged for some time in
Charleston, intend paying usa visit shortly, when
all who desire it can have theirp portraits taken
without theloss of time, and at triiing expense.
The great advantage of this mode Of taking min
ialures is the short time it requires, (not more
than two mnutes,) and their beauty consists in
the perfection of the resemblance, and distinct
ness of every outline and feature. A specimen
of tie style in which they execute orders in their
profession, has been left at our Office, which our
friends are invited to CALI and examine.

Mr.. Wise then took the floor and spoke very
vehemently in favor of the resolutions, shelving
in the course of his remarks, that Mr.. Adams was
identified with British party that had always
hated our institutions and would be ever ready
to join England in overtlrowing them.
Before MIR. Wise concluded, he gave way to
motion to adjourn. The subject will occupy
some days..
Mr.. Adams is in his glory. lie has now an
opportunity to let off all his spleen The House

not, will be bound to hear him--and that's the

should do.

TRIAL OF. JOHN C.. CoLT-The trial Of Colt
for the murder of Samuel Adams is attended
with deeper and more intense excitement than
has been awakened by any other since the tri-
al of Robinson. Every day, for hours before
the opening of the Court thousands are gather
ed together 10 obtain admission, or perchance to
catch glimpse at the prisoner. As will be
seen by our extended report of the trial, the
empauneling Of the jury was completed very
soon after the opening of the Court yesterday
opened by John NJ. Smith, Jr Esq, and three
witnesses, Messrs. Wheeler, Seignette and
Delnoce were examined before the adjournment
OF the Court in the evening. The testimony
thus far is remarkably explicit, and strongly ad.
verse 10 the prisoner. The witnesses are all
young men of intelligence, and give their an
swers in a clear and satisfactory manner Dud-
ley Selden, Esq, conducts the defence with
great candor, and with distinguished ability.
In regard to the prisoner, the Tribune says:
AS on former days of this trial, at very
early hour this morning, every avenue to the
Court Room was thronged; the same admirable
arrangements, however, which have all along
been made were enforced by the Deputy Sheriff,
aided by strong body Of special constables, and
were completely successful III preserving order
and quiet.
The Jurors cam in at about five minutes be-
fore 10 o'clock. The prisonerhad then been in
the room for some two hours engaged as usual
in reading the newspaper reports OF his trial.
lie seemed more intently curious to hear what
was said about the matter than at amy previous
time, and there can be detected in his features
and general manner much more anxiety and
restlessness as 10 the result than he has mani
tested heretofore. Still, he preserves greater
degree of coolness and self possession than we
have ever seen in any other person arraigned on
so weighty charge and placed in so fearful
position. During the hearing of testimony he
keeps fixed gaze upon the Witness intermlt-
tingit only occasionally to suggest some point
or 10 ask some question of his counsel. He
keeps up continual chewing with his mouth
shut, and it is rot difficult to believe, from re-
garding attentively his manner and features,
that his apparent GOODNESS and confident indif-
ferenc are only assumed to hide feelings Of the
most intense and bitter agony.

SPURIOUS BILLS.

We have been shown (says the Augusta Chro-
nicle) a Ten Dollar Bill, purporting to be on the
Commercial Bank of Columbia, S. c. which has
been so ingeniously altered as to beywcil calcu-
lated to deceive the unsuspecting. The plate
appears to have been originally the plate of some
other Commercial Bank, .(located xProbably in
Missssippi,) but wherever the original place OF
the location of the Bank occursin the face OF the
bill,.it has been erased, and Columbia, S. c., in
sertodwith pen, but done in such handsome
style as to impose even upon the more cautious.
Thesgnature of A. Blanding is very badly done,
andsthe name of J. Ewartis signed as the cash
ier, altho' the bank never had such a cashier.

THE ENGLISH PARTY

Whatever may have been said, that was un-
true, i'll relation to the distribution of English
gold during the last Presidential contest, the fact
is now proven beyond tho shadow ola doubt, that
there is all English party now in the United
States, whose highest aim is the dissolution of
our blessed Union, and whose daily acts are dis
organizing. 1t is melancholy fact, and the an.
gel truth as she bears it up to- Heavens high
chancery, wells her face with her snowy wings;
and weeps as she gives it in. The son of the
elder Adams appears on the floor of Congress
sEthe High Priest atthe shine of Moloch and
the frost ofages melts before the fire of phrensy,
and the tongue that should be lispng prayers at
the threshold of time, hurls whitening cursers up
on the heads ofeyery lover ofhis native land
We weep over the sad spectacle. We mourn
as Washington mourned when the Newburg
letters were found in the American camp
When West Point was basely sold to the Brit
ish, and the mercenary Arnold became traitor
and a British General in day. How long will
the people Of this glorious Republic suffer the
ring leaders of faction to 60 unpunished! How
long will the spirit of party shelter the spirit of
hell and glory in National dishonor,-Ih.

IMPORTANT FROM 5WASHINGToN-- ::
UNION OF THE WINGS AND THE
PRESIDENT-A NEW, BANKRUPT

PRESIDENT--A NEW BANKRUPT
. LAW. ~ 49,
We have private information from Washing
ton of very important nature-and from the
sources from which it ernanates, we have very
good reason to put confidence in its accuracy
1t is now believed that the great body of the
wbip partv, fatigued and chagrined at the con-
sequences of disunon among themselves, and
estranpement from the patriotic Chief Magls-
trate. have come to the resolution to unite with
The Executive and the Cabinet: in all, or in the
most of thepublic measures now pending before
Congress.
For this purpose it is intended to Introduce
new Bankrupt Law, into the House of Repre-
sentatives, and already the Committee on the
Judiciary have been instructed on that point
This law will embrace banks and corporations
modify the compulsory Retrospective ope-
ratoIrs of the existing law-and avoid the Pr'n-
cipleiof Reputation, by a just but mercllul ad.
herence to the "sacred obligation of.contracts. -
1t is expected that this "uniform law on the
subject of bankruptcies" will pass the House
while the repeal of the present law will pass the
Senate. The President, in such contingency,
will1then sign the repeal of the present law, as
soon as, or about the time the new law shall
have passed both houses of Congress, which IS
intended to go into operation next August; by
this measure, all parties will be satistied-uhe
honest debtors and the mcrcilul credItors-the
mcrcantilea as we'll as the agricultural classes.
In connection }lith this healing measure,
there are also hopes that national system OF
ii;il it re b. ID con.
State banks, and the suppression of all broken
and suspended ones under the operation of the
Bankrupt Law, will be the means of restoring
order to the present arrangement Of public and
private affairs, that will cause joy to spread
throughout the land.
These important and cheering views are
founded on good and sufficient reasons-and if
they should be carried into effect, it is highly
probable that the wing party, united with the
President, will yet maintain their ascendancy in
Congress, and reganit in the States, at the next
elections, on bettor and tirmer ground than
ever.
Let us watch each days proceedings at
Washington, and see whether the wings have
sense enough moderation enough, patriotism
enough to accomplish this desirable union. .

GOING AIIEAn

Particular attention is invoked to the action Of
the Wing Senate upon the Treasury Note Bill,
The reason given for resort to Treasury Notes
is that about S6,5000,000 of the twelve million
loan authorized oy the Extra Session cannot be
negotiated. On motion of MIR. Gilner, in the
House of Representatives, the bill authorizing
the issue Of S5,000000 in Treasury Notes, was
put into such form as to make these notes, as
issued,a substitute for SO much of the loan, stI

rolling, could not keep the planets from knock

man, by searching, cannot find out God
The gudgeons of the earth never want oling, and

arrives! Come, brother Miller, and take tea
with the Doctor and his woman of Samaria, and
reconcile your theory to his, before you preach
any more. DIR. Lardner once proved that the
