STATX or ArFA:RS AT HaRts URo.-An extra from the Harrisburg In telligenrer office, under date of 5th inst., furnishesi.he particulars of the proceedings in the Seonte of Peunsylvanian on Tues, da7, the first day of the session. the Seuate was called to order at 3 P. - MJidye lata.Speaker, an.a on calling the roll 6 Senators answ.ered to their names The Clerk then proceeded to read the returns of the late election, and amonR oth a it appeared that Mr. Bell. of Cheiter, and Messrs Hanna and Wagner, the Whig members from Philadelphia conuty, were duly returned elected. Mr. Brown offered a return from Phila delphia county, which was not received ty the Speaker. ri ' Mr. Pearson said, it was impossible for hita:to understand she returns frm the eigitth Senatorial district, comp)osed of H untingon, Mifflin, Juntiata,' Perry and Union counties, and he tmoved that the persons returned be .mnot allowed to ake their seats-(being rour in numbier, the law only calling,for two)-till the other Senm tors eleet were duly sworn in, and that they be postponed tall that time, The me tion was agreed to, yeas 13, nays 8. The Senate then proceeded to the elec tion of Speaker, when Charles B, Penrose was duly elected, having received 19 votes, and Samuel S. Carpenter, 9. Mr. Rogers said he had heard the return from Philadelphmia county read, as senm by the Secretary of the commnonwvealth,. but he had in his possession anosher return the legal one-which he wished to present to the. Senate. The Speaker was opinion that the re turn could not m)e received, but a p)etition might be presented, under the act of 1791, on which a committee maight be raised, in order to investigate the matter. So it was not received. The clerk then called up the newly a lected members, to be sworn, when Mr. Rogers objected to the Senators elect from Philadelphia county taking thear seats. He afterwards moved to postpone the swear ing of the Senators for the presernt. Mr. Peason addressed the Senate at some length, and finally in opposmion' to the mnotion. The motion was yeas 9, nays 12. The new Senators were then swornm in, "when" (in the words of the intelhsgenceer) "a scene of riot ensued beyond all de scription, and which fimally obaliged the Senate to adjourn, when the mob took ~possession of the Hall," and after being addressed by several persons. dispersed. The latest news from Harrisburg is, that there is a prospect of some compromise between the two parties It is paropiosed that the Whig Delegation from the coun sy of Philadelphia. shall be allowed to take their seats, upon the conadiion thamt a pledge be given that the Legislature "hall not proceed to the election of Treasurer, Auditor, or Unmited States Senator, until the claims of the contendimng party be set sled. The Commitse of Elections, under 'the Constitution of Pennsylvania. is cho sen by lot, and themr decision is final, as in the British House of Commons.

Mr. Andrew Maclauchlin, has been elected Cashier of the Commercial Bank, at Columbia. Georgia.-A fiee Banking law, very mnuch like that of New York, lan passed the House of Representatives of Georgia. by a small ma jority. It will probably pass the Senate also. Mr. Cuthbert, of Georgia. has noot resigned hi.s seat in the United States Senate, as was re ported. The Hon. TwoMAs H. Bsoi has been re elected to the United States Senate from Alis souri, for six years from the 4th of March next. It will be seen that the President is firm in ad vocating the Independeut Treasury plan. lie uses strong arguments against a National Bank, or a connexione of the Government with State Banks. He disclaims all hostility to State batnks, but recommends to the government, to form no union with them, and to use them only, as the public policy and general interest of the coun try may require. This is but just and reasona ble None but the nost prejudiced advocates of the banks, can say that this is waging war a gainst those institutions. Mr. Van Buren trly says, " that the only safe or proper principle up on which their intercourse with the govertiment can be regulated, is that which regulates their intercourse with the private citizen-the con ferring of mutual benefits." If the banks wish for any more than this, it is but to increase, to a large extent, their own profits. We publish, this week, that portion of the Message which is of most interest to our readers. We will give them. the conclusion in our sext paper. Aarter Turisp.-The Office of the Augusta Constitutionalist appear to be a depository of mammoth Turnips. We wish our planters would procure the seed. Iere is the Editor's description of a huge turnip: "About a week ago we noticed the re ception of a turnip, weighing 7 lbs. 81 oz. -but it was i *mall affair to one we now .have l the'6ff1ce' a'ort of Slatnese con cern, having one root and two tops, and .weighing eleven pounds. We did not measure it, as it is or such an outlandish shape, it would be difficult to run a string, but should think it will measure considera ble wore than a big turnip! IN SENATE. WASHINOTOs.

After some other business the Statnding Committees of the Senate for the Session were announced. They are as they were, at the last session. IH, OF REPRESENTATIVU~S.

Mr. Adams called up his kill to prevent thte giving or receiving challenges in the District of Columnbia. Objections were made to referring the hill; whichs, after some few remarks from Mr. Adams, was read twice and referred to a Select Com mittee of nine members. N,:w OnrLI iAs, Dec. 8. VaaA Cauz TAxxC.-By the French Steatm Ship Meteor, arrive'd ss:t niahm ins 60 hours from Vera Cruz. intellig~ence is received that the Castle of Satnan tde Ullon, was taken by the F'rench fleet sifter a bonmbardmnen' ofthree hoturs, with a loss of only four men, by she blockadting squad ron: whila from 4 to 500 Mexicans were killed. In the same shaip came a mtessen ger. who has hurried ona to Washington, being the hearer of important dispatchses. From the Courier we take the following particulars of th.e bomnbardment. On the 27th of Nove'mber. the Freich Admiral. Bauditn, sent word to the Mexi catn General, Rittcon, that he was about to attack the Castle of San Jesan de [Ulhun. A bout 2 o'clock the same da.v,three French frigates, a sloop of war and two bomb. ketches, moored between the reef within gunshot of the Caste: and so well directed was their bombs andI heavy artillery, shut isifss thb .fbv bstB they haldsD- eda the gre of t) pieees of Mexican artillery, :ein,olished all the out works, includiiig the famous redoubt called El Caballetol andi killed and wounded 0(1 of the Mexi can garrison. About 6 o'clock in the afternooo of the 27th, he Mexican c,nionander in the Cas tIe, hung out a signal for the cessai6h of hostilities, and begged leave to be allowed limte to withdraw hio, wolnded from-the ruins of the fortication. Admiral Baudin replied that le could consent to no truce, hut would allow the Mexicans to retire from the fort if ltey capitulated. To this the Mexicfn General agreed, and with drew hi4 troops from the Castle, which was immediately occupied by the French soldiers and marimes. The Mexican army, near Vera Cruz, Was abloti 5,000 strong, but their officers did not consider thieinselves able.to-hold the town, commanded as ij was by the gui, of the Castle, until the Frencli Ad uiral consented that one thousand of the Mexican troops should remain in the city to preserve order. It was bPlieved that negociations had been commenced between the Mexican Government and the,French Admiral, for the re-r-maf:lishmtent of peace, but some ime may elapse berore the result is known. The 1rench Admiral it was thought, wiuld no lonver hinder tie vessels of all nations from trading to Vera Cruz. We have here: given all the particulars which have reached its. Of the ulterior designs of either the French or Mexicans, we are ignorant. Time alone can tell, whether the Mexicans, dispirited by thi, their first trial of strength,with the French, will consent to patch up a peace and pay the money demniaded of then; or whether the war will be prolonged, and lead to further conquest by the arms of Lou6 Philippe.
