CONGRESSIONAL.

By the proceedings of Congress in to-
days paper, it will be seen that the bill re-
pealing the Bankrupt Act, has passed the
House of Representatives by large ma.
jority. The Senate have not yet acted
upon it, but its friends are beginning to fear
its fate there will be the same as in the
House. Our exchanges from different
parts of the country are specializing upon
the probable result of the action of the
Senate upon it some think the bill repeal
ing it will be passed--others that there will
be a tie,--and again that there arc enough
of the friends of the Law in the Senate to
prevent its repeal, amendment, or postpone
ment for the present. We have seen it
stated, or rather hoped, by some of the
papers, that if the bill repeating it should
pass the Senate it will be vetoed by the
President. By our next, the Senate will
probably have acted upon it.
Our dates by yesterday mornings mail
are up to the 23d. The Senate were en-
gagged in the discussion of the Treasury
Note Bill. Of the proceedings in the
Senate, the Madisonian remarks: "Mr.
King presented resolutions from the Legis-
lature of Alabama assigning the reasons
why that State would not accept the share
of the proceeds of the public lands aPpor-
toned to it by the distribution act. Mr..
Clay then introduced resolution, direct
ing division Of that part of the proceeds
refused by any State among those that were
willing to receive it, Mr.. Evans called up
the Treasury note bill, but gave way for
Mr.. Aliens speech on the resolution offered
by him some days since. At the conclu-
sion of his remarks Mr.. Rives submitted
a substitute, which was ordered to be
printed. The consideration of the Treas
ury note bill was then resumed; and, before
the Senate adjourned, the bill was ordered
to be engrossed for third reading"

ISDIANA BANK RESUMPTION, &c.--It may
be remembered that the Indiana State Bank,
a short time ago, sent circulars to the Banks
in the various other States, declaring her
ready to resume specie payments as early
as August next, if they would cooperate
with her in the measure. Her President
has just reported summary of the answers
rendered by divers institutions. The an

The State Bank of Illinois reports its
readiness to resume with the Indiana Bank.
The Northern Bank of Kentucky holds
itself ready to cooperate in early resump-

The Banks of Xenia, Circleville, Chilli

For the last few weeks the weather has
been such, for this season of the year, as
has not been remembered by that often quo
ted individual 'the oldest inhabitant," and
just as we, "good easy man." were fattering
ourselves that our Spring "was ripening,"
we were visited yesterday morning with
as pretty a fall of snow as sleigh rider
would desire. Instead of having got thro'
the cold weather, we find that we have
got through our coal-and that winter has
broke out in fresh place.

FROM FLORIDA.

We have already mentioned the recent
murders by the Indians in East Florida, but
the following extract from the St. Angus
tine News, is more peculiar statement
than has before been pubIished:
ANOTHER INDIAN OUTAGE MURDER AND
DESTRUCTION OF PRopERrr.-For some time
past, our citizens in this section o. country.
East OF the St. Johns, have been IulIed into
apparent security, under the IDLE and vagur
belief that there was no danger 10 be APP.
pretended, since the notorious Wild Cat
and his party, who were believed t. be the
only Indians who have from time 10 time
committed depredalons on this side of the
river were shipped to the West. But we
have now to record the fact. that on Mon
day last party oi tWenty-Dne Indians ap
preached the settlements at Mandarin, anG
after capturing ain old negro belonging to
Mr.. WIN. Hartley, laid by until night, when
they attacked the house If that gentleman.
(Wm. HartIey) who happened to be out
hunting, killed his wife and child, and
Messrs Domingo AcoSto, and VIM. Mol,
pus. The Indians, after committing the
foul deed, plundered the house aud applied
the torch. 1t was consumed, together with
the out buildings. They then proceeded to
the plantations of Nathaniel and George
Hartley, the inmates having fled, and like
wise burnt an3 destroyed them. The In
dams then proceeded short distance in a
southerly direction, where they encamped
until morning, when they released the old
negro and proceeded on their course.
Capt. Curry, Of Mandarin, with a few
other citizens, followed the trail the nexr
day for some distance, until it was finally
lost:
On rumor of this transaction reaching
town, 1t. Judd, with a small detachment OF
soldiers from the barracks, the only availa
Die force, Immediately proceeded in pursuit

CLAY AND THE BANK.--VAN buren,
AND THE SUB TREASURY. TYLER
AND THE EXCHEQUER

Such are the men and such the measures OF
the three parties now existing at Washington and
which are rapidly filling up all over the country.
There are Subdivisions Of parties is to say
Mr.. Calhoun, Mr. Benton, Mr.. Buchanan and
others have their personal parties, on the one
side, and Gen. Scott and even less distinguished
men have theirs on the other side-but every thing
is resolUable into the three lines above written.
The last is attsinable, and would afford an
almos: ;ns,an, alienation to the Inconvenience
and embarrass4lents Of the country and the peo-
pie. Neither OF the former can be obtained for
at least three years and upwards. nor then even,
unless there should happen TO be concurrence
between both houses Of Congress and the Execu,
tive (whoever he may be.)
In the name, then, OF patriotism in the name
OF honor, in the name of suffering PEOPLE, is
this great measure (the best that can be had, and
good enough)-is this only hope Of the people
and the country to be postponed and defeated,
merely because its adoption, by settling the cues
ton Of the currency and the finances, may take
away the hobby upon which half dozen men, OF
different politics, each hope to vault into the
Presidency
The above is an extract of letter from
a gentleman now in Washington City, to
a friend in this place, who has handed it
to us for the purpose of making such use
of it as we thought proper. We publish
il in order that our readers may see what
is the state of parties in the Metropolis, as
given by an eyewitness. 1t will be seen
by it, that, in the opinion of the writer, a
Bank of the United States-such one as
great portion of. the Wing party contend
for-is not attainable, so long as the Presi-
Dental chair is filled by its present incum-
bent, and revival of the odous sub-treas-
ury system is also out of the question.
The question then arises, what should Con-
gress dol Reject every measure of relief
because they cannot get exactly what they
want, or take the best they can get, and
wait more opportune period for the reali-
zation of their hopes by the creation OF
such an institution, as, in their opinion the
wants of the country require. In our
opinion, if they adopt the latter method
do the best they can in framing such bill
as they feel assured will be acceptable to
the Executive, and as far as possible meet
the wants of the country, they will be sus-
tanned by the people. That the country
is suffering for the want of some institution
that will give sound and uniform currency,
and afford cheap exchanges, cannot be
doubted, and in the language of Mr. Rives,
"if they cannot get what shall appear to be
the best measure, let them go for the next
best" Let this be done--let opposition,
merely for the sake of opposing, be laid
aside, and all come together and unite upon
the best attainable measure for the relief
of the wants of the country, and they
will be sostained by the PHorLs.

U. S. BANK OFF1cERs.-A Philadelphia
correspondent of the 18th says: The hear
ing before Recorder VauS occupied from
o'clock in the afternoon until after in
the evening of to-day. The examination
of Mr.. Thomas S. Taylor, cashier, was re-
sumed, and the testimony of Mr.. Jonathan
Patterson, first teller, was given in. The
evidence was then closed.
Whereupon the Recorder delivered his
opinion, stating in substance, that he had
arrived at the conclusion that there was
probable cause for the binding over of the
accused; and. accordingly, Nicholas Biddle,
Samuel Jaudon, Thomas Dunlap, Joseph
Cowperthwait, and Jonn Andrews, were
ordered to give bail in the sum of ten thou
sand dollars each, for their appearance to
answer the charges against them at the pres
sent term Of the Court ofGeneral Sessions.
Security was accordingly given.
