steam Ship Caledonia

It'll now pretty certain that the Caledonia had not
reached Halifax last Thursday, for had she, the Uni-
corn would have been back to Boston ere this We
think the latter has, therefore, sailed for Engand.
II is firm opinion still, that the Caledonia put
back to England, or into some port in the Western
Islands. We shall continue OF this opinion till the
Acadia arrives, or till We have intelligence from
Fayal TO the same date, thence that the Acadia will
bring from England, namely, to the 4th inst. This
opinion we have formed after a careful examination
into the facts relative TO the loss Of the President, to
the recent gale, and to the severs logs of the Liver
pool.

ed, and the report Of the committee on the contin-
gent expenses of the House was taken up.
The first question was on the appointment Of q
Committee on Printing, who shall determine what
papers and documents shall be printed, on which
and some siDgularly inappropriate amendments,
mu CHI time was consumed. The resolution was ul-
timatey negatived. Many other motions were
made, and either negatved or declared to be out of
order. At length the House went into committee Of
the whole on the state Of the union, and resume
the consideration Of the Civil and Diplomatic APP

was consumed On an appeal and points of order,

In reply to the many anxious inquire as to the
progress made BY your committee in settling the at
fairs OF the association. have the pleasure to in
form you that the basis of final arrangement with
the general agent has been established, which will
leave In the hands OF the committee for distribution
about $4,000 in good contracts and nearly 800 600
acres of unencumbered lands lying in the military
tract in the State of Illinois, recently valued by the
public assessors at g., 100000.
The committee are in daily expectation Of full re-
ports from the Office Of the Association in Quincy,
and having sent to the Directors in Philadelphia for
certain books and papers, they will proceed mmedi-
atey on their receipt TO prepare tariff of disribu-
ton for quable division Of the whole property
