THE ENGLISH NEWS.

The news from England which we re-
ceived yesterday by the "Garrick,' in! antici-
patton Of every other paper in this city, and
issued in IN extra, IS decidedly interesting,
not only to the merchant, but TO the general
and philosophical reader. We aliude par
ticuarly TO the intelligence relative 10 the
new excitement in relation to the disturbance
in the Episcopal Church Of England-ot!er-
wise called the Puseyite controversy. 1t ap-
pears that the whole daily press of London,
is now engaged in the discussion Of this sub
ject, and it would appear that the new doc
iriDes, or innovations, as they arc called by
the Oxford diviDes, now occupy the public
mind to the exclusion Of every thing else. A
famous pastoral letter, recently issued b the
Bishop of Exeter, appears 10 have been the
chief generating cause ofthis new excitement,
that is spreading all over England with ill.,
creasing intensity as it proceeds. .apd devel-
oping itself in variety of amusing and fanci-
full forms, and entirely pushing aside the
usual questions Of the day in relation to poll
cs-Peel-anti-corn Law agitation-and all
the other orthodox subjects of popular dis
cussion, clamor and disturbance. Our ex-
tracts from the English journals, will put our
readers in possession of much curious and
interesting intelligence on this subject.

him by General Jackson and others, that
he had. while Secretary ofthe United
States, accepted from Spain boundary

yantageous and injurious to the country.
Mr.. Adams, in his address, set the matter
right, and prov ed from extracts from his
diary, that General jackson himself dp-
prorcd of that treaty.-This brought the
whole pack upon him. General Jackson
denied this statement, and others accused
him Of falsehood and forgery. He has
made no answer to these various charges,
SO far; but an unexpected witness to his
truth and correctness has arisen IN the
person of Nj. Governor, relation OF
Pres dent Monroe. He has found among
the papers ofthe late President, letter
which he has published from Gen, Jack
son himself, approving the treaty. New

so with the whole pack Of accusers of the

The following is the letter found among
the papers of President Monroe and is a
striking corroboratiCn of Mr. Adams's
rtatement that Gen. Jackson did approve
of the treaty of 1919 which secured to us

LAID ON THE TABLE.

This was the disposition OF the resolution
proposing to expel Messfs. Chngman and
Yancey from their seats in Congress on ac-
count of the recent duel. The vote stood
I02 for laying upon the table and 81 against
it. This course was equivalent to saying"
We will do nothing on the subjeci"-for the
resolution viii probably be permitted to sleep
npon the table, that ''sleep which knows no
waking" This is much TO be regretted. A
most excellent opportunity was afforded to
the House TO express their opinion, without
reference TO party, flor Mr.. Clngman was
wing, and Mr.. Yancey loco,) against the
ridiculous and yet most barbasous and ira
tional practice Of dueling. But this oppor
tunity was no: improved--it was deliberately
passed BY. The duty of voting
these members out Of their seats would
doubtless have been a painful one, as they
both probably had warm personal friends
there but the members owed it to humanity
to act, and to put their mark OF disapprobation
upon the degrading and most immoral prac-
tce of the duelist. majority of these
members are loco focos, who throughout
the late Presidential election expressed great
horror of dueling, even pronouncing il muir
der. Now, however, that the election is
over. they refuse TO pass vote TO expel the
duelists from the seats which they have dis
honored for ii is infinitely more disgraceful

than it was ten years ago, or even one year
ago.-N, Hdren Palladium.

LoUIsrANA-By the the last inteli-

nothing.

The New Orleans Courier of the Sth inst.

previous left the city, having come TO the
resolution that it would be useless for him
to remain longer. Before leaving, he adj

standing in New Orleans from which the
Courier publishes the following extract
