2W Speaker of the-nouse of Represen tatives in Congress-It is'painful to read of the indignities which were 'frquently heaped upon this high officet by members of the opposition, during the re cent session of Congress. Chatges of un fairness and partiality inl the appointment of Committees, were brought against him. by certain-, members, which ir true, should. have driven him in disgrace, from the Hall of Congress. No doubt there was much exaggeratiou in these accusations. But . ilf these csrges could be substantiated, what excse can there be, in grossly insulting sin oieer high in rank while in the discharge of. public duty? For such conduct we can see no palliation. The indignity was not only offered to the Speaker, but to the Ilouse, and to the nation. High public function aries while in the act of public duty, should have that respect which their office de mands. Though they may be unworthy themselves, their office is honorable, and demands the respectful attention of all. This treatment was not given to Col. Polk, the Speaker of the house. What nfust the foreigners who attended the proceedings of Congress, and witness ed the rude and uncourteous bearing of 6ome members towards this officer, think of our government? What must they think of a Republic? Will it not be neces sarily asso-iated in their minds with every thing that is lowo and vulgar? They will "lay the flattering unction to their- souls" that they are not as these American boors. That they are not Republicaus, but the sulbjec'ts ofpolished & courtly monarchies. Too long has the Hall of Congress, been little more than a pugilistic arena-the the theatre of angry brawling, and some times of blackguardism, for some notori ous members of both the great parties, which divide the Union. Mr. Benton's Speech on Salt.-Many of the Whig papers are "takinug merry" over the great speech of Mr. Benton on Salt. Much low wit is expentled on the subject, but very little Attic salt. The Whigs sing over rite Missouri Senator, an old song commencing, W-'ll row hi-n u. Salt River, boys, Yo heave, ho! We join them in the chorus. Mr. Betn ton. in this speech. it is known, attacked the "Compromise Act" as it i- called, which settled the exciting Tariff quest ion. The following extract frot the speech, we copy from a Whig paper. -Sir to tax Salt, is sir, to tax the provi dence of God - Yes, sir, I repeul it, sir. it is to tax, sir, the m:-rcy and bounty of the Almighty. Salt, sir, iwid could ace do with oulSalt, sir?-Nothing sir. It pres erres every thing-yes sir, it is the great pith *ERVATIVE principle, not the CONS:RVA TJVp'principle!" (there ie threw nis enni hilating look towards Rives and Tall nadge.) - "Yes, sir. salt is the great preservative. IT KEEPS TEE FOOD OF TPE POOR FROM BECOMINO PUTREscENT, SiRt' An easy tcay of getting Subiscriberse Our tmercantile rriends wvell kunew that it is a practice of some citv merchants, to forward without orders, small parcels of goods to. the country merchants, who trade with rhtem. These goods are charged, utn less returned. WVe have always, consider ed this an easy wvay of selling merchan dise. This trick in trade, is not confined to the mnerchatnts. A brothuet editor has resorted to it, to get rid of several num bers of his paper. He sends his paper to several friends woho did not order it, and unless they return it, he considers them as subscribers. A' tost audmirale plan wve think to increase the number of one's pa trons. Read the rolloinig extract from the-Gleorgia Journal. "When wie came into the charge of the Georgia Journal we took thte liberty of sending the paper to several of our friends at a distance, whose niames were not foutnt on the subscription books of t lhe of flee. They have had now a pretty rair sample of the manner, in whtich the paper wvill be conducted in ordinary times, and unless this number should be returned, their names woill'be registered as subscribers. Duncan, .Prentiss, 8( Co.-The Whigs have said much about the "rude and ruf fiatly" remarks as they call thems, of Dr. Duncan, a Van Buren member of Con gress. up)on their party, and more espe cially, certain members of it. It must be confessed, that the Doctor is exceedingly severe, & does not uise "honiedl phrases." He cuts and haeks like a bold surgeon, tint he leaves the wound open, and bleed lng. We are not his apologists, but we b~elieve that Messrs. 'A ise, Stanley, and Prentiss, who are all Whigs, fully equal him itn low scurrility and billintgsgate, if not itn severity. Much c'nsure has been c'ast tuponi Dr. D. for his attack upon cer tain members in the colutmns of the Globe. As outr readers know, this gave rise to a warm ilebate, in the House of Rep resenta tives, on the 21st ult. A motion was made to enquire, wvhes her he wvas worth' of ex pulsion- General Thompson thtotiht that he should be merely reprimnided. Col. Elmnore, we think, took the trtte around. Hie said that the House had no jurisdie tiont over the case. The question was laid . on the table. As some of our readers may wish to know, why the Doctor made such a - ryde uttack tuponi certain Whig metmbers, in a newvspaper, we will mention that they called him indirectly an Abolitionist. Hie den ies that he is one, but admits that he is .,..neal to slavery in rheO abst raot. We extract the following from the Charleston Patriot, in relation -to the debate on this subject, in the House, on the 21st ult. "To i-ender 1Ae exciting debate in the House on the 21st inst. intelligible, we would state as the substance of Mr. Dun can's comnmnication alluded to in the Globe, that Mr. Stanley, in reply to sone remarks male by Mr. Donean in the Iouse c:a the 16th and 17th Jantarv, in sinuated that the former was an Aholition ist. which he repelled as a "hase false hood and foul deractiu."-Mr. D. says that lie intended to insult Mr. S. which the latter would nor resent.-Mr. Stanley sul:.sequemily published a speech'purport in,- to he a reply to Mr. Duncan, but which the latter affirtns was neter deliv ered in ih. House nor any other place, and w. ich he pronounced to be "a tissut of tmisrepresentation, onmanly insinaa tions. and low vulgarity. worthy of the man that catn be charged with base false. huod and foul detraction, with impunity." Earthquake at Guadaloupe.-The New Orleans Bulletin, says: from our files of Havana papers, wo learn, tiha the earth quake recently experienced in Martinique. and the: Windward Islands, with such fearful consequences, has had still more disastrous effects in Guadaloupe. There, the victims taken from the ruis, are sta ted to have exceeded four thousand! Troops in the British North American Provinces.-PThere are said to be at pres ent in the British North American Prov inres, upwards of 15,000 regular troops, and numerotus companies of local militia. Commodore David Porter, has been ap pointed resident Minkter to Constanti tiople, with a salary of K.000 per annum.
