The bill to establish the Smithsoni-
an Institute was taken up in Commit
tee Of the whole, and Marsh, Of Yer
mont, made a sensible and learned
speech on the subject. Mr.. Chapman,
OF Michigan, to whom it particularly
belonged TO treat questions Of this sort,
denounced the measure as a disgrace to
TO the country and the ruin of all true
Democracy. 'a 'a eaAsVas' aas'-

up Of musty records Of the thoughts
and sayings, and doings Of comedy

IL was burning shame that .tor-
eigner and an Englshnan, toe, should
send his gold here to corrupt free
Americans with foreign and heathen-
ism black-letter learning. The Gov
eminent was forever disgraced by hav-
ing accepted such boon-and for
such purpose. He appealed to his
Democratic friends in the House to re-
bukeand utdown such an abominable
scheme. No man would vote fer this
bill who was not as deficient of patriot
ism as Benedict Arnold. He denounc-
ed it as the establishment of an intel
leetual aristocracy, that would reduce
the masses of people as slaves, and ele-
vate few fortunate individuals to the
highest point Of mental and political
greatness. hl atn1
He had come here 10 uphold the
standard of Calhoun, and had been COM
PEELED 10 retire in shame and confusion
from his support. He was mortified
to find that all the chivalry of the South
was in favor of Southern interests alone,
and would never stand by the Democ-
racy, lie did not think that he could
possibly subject himself to the disgrace
of retaining seat along side Of them
in this House. A universal shout of
Laughter followed this sallyD 81.

Considerably after might've arrived

BIT witnessed one of those tragedies
with which Mohammedan courts are
SO dreadfully familiar. The murdered
Nabob, Subder Ali, had left son
named Seid Mahomed, whom the Niz-
am placed under the guardianship of
his fathers successor in office, promis-
ling that when of age the Nabobship
should be his own. His youth, pa
frontage, misfortunes and character, all
|conspired to make him favorite of
1.-THE people. He was celebrating the
|nuptials of a relative with great pomp,
and had invited his guardian, Anwar
|Addin, to attend; on the announcement
of whose approach, the noble youth,
to show all due respect, proceeded to
the foot of the steps before his house,
in order to receive him. Here crowd
had assembled, among whom were
some Patans formerly in his fathers
service. One of those advanced to-
wards Seid Mahomed in an humble
posture, as if to crave forgiveness for
insolence he had lately shown, and,
when sufficiently near, stabbed him to
THE heart. In an instant, thousand
swords and daggers were drawn; the
assassin sunk under countless wounds,
and several of his companions shared
his lot. Suspicion instantly fell on his
uncle, NORTH Ali, the murderer of his
Iiather. The crowd rushed in search of
lhim, determined to avenge the crime.

Bad Cuitiuation.--In this country
the science Of agriculture is yet in its
infancy. We have not yet been bro't
from necessity to adopt a system Of
high cultivation, which is the most
profitable Of all kinds Of farming--
that which will produce the greatest
amount for the least number of acres.
The skilful and neutrality-suspicious. Of
labor and manures, is of far greater
importance than quanty Of land. Any
kind of property should be estimated
in its value from the amount which II
will produce. Farm lands, judged by
this standard, are found TO be worth
the most, and yield great profit, when
highly cultivated. 20 te's ~ 4
The New York Sun states that
owners of farms in the neighborhood
Of that city, offer them for sale at re-
duced prices, on the ground that cheap
err farms at distance realize niore,and
from the facility OF railroad and steam
boat conveyance, control the New
York market, while on the contrary,
every thing there costs more TO raise
than at distance. This same reason
is operating through the State, to cause
large numbers Of our agricultural pop
ulation 10 seek homes in the west.---
But the Sun truly observes that this
tate Of things is the fault Of the far
ners, who do not cultivate their farms
