IxMIGRATIoN-BnL TO PREVENT THR M
PoRTATroN OF PAUPERs AND CRIMINALS INTO
rHR UNITED STATEs.-Mr. Seaman has intro
duced bill into the House of Representatives,
the object of which is to prevent the evils arising
out of the course pursued by the parish authori-
ties in many of the European States, namely,
that of sending their criminals and paupers in
hips TO this country; thus, for trifiing sum- get
ing rid, effectualy disappearing them, and throw-
ing upon the responsibility and expense of pro-
vidng poor house or prison accommodations for
,he transported The bill provides that the con-
sui. and commercial agents Of the United States
shall examine on oath or otherwise, as may best
serve the proposed end, all immigrants who take
passage in vessels from the ports where they are
resident, and which vessels are bound for the
United States; and if il appears that such mmi.
grants have not been paupers or convicts, then
the consus are to give certificates to that effect
but il, on the contrary, II appears that they have
been the inmates OF prisons or warehouses, the
consuls are to refuse the certificates. The certif-
Gates, when gwen, are 10 be duplicated, and a
copy sent to the authorities Of the port for which
he vessel sails Persons arriving in ports OF the
United States, without such certificates are TO be
sent back whence they came, and the master or
owner OF the vessel from which any immigrant is
landed, without such certificate shall be liable TO
a fine of $3.50.
Mr.. Seaman is one Of the representatives of
the native American party in this city, and it is
not, therefore, surprising that while his bill DOS
sesses some valuable features it at the same time
partakes of the proscriptve principle so plainly

Capt. Nj. has now been under orders three times

countermanded
The gallant Captain, however, though the last
to take the field, will not be the least to do good
service when there-nor is this his first effort
against his counuy's foes. He was a participant
in our last war with England, and again with our
savage foes in Florida; and now for the third
time cheerfully goes, if the war is for his coun.

is the third Of his family who will have taken the
field in Mexico, having there already son and
son-in-law.

force, $500 men, TO march on the 10Th, for
Victoria. But,''o the evening Of his arrival
at Montcmarelos, despatch arrived, from

the intelligence that Santa Anna destined To

Gen. Taylor had proceeded beyond Mon

announcing The early arrival of Cen WOnrs
