liienti By an act o f 1818 , the go'v^fnof was authorized to institute a negotiation for the i&le of those fortifications, and the lands Connected therewith, and wai directed to report to the legislature. Nothing effectual was done under that law. In 1826, a* survey and map, and estimate of their value, were directed to be made. If is submitted to your ponsideration, whether further legisla tion on that subject is not expedient. By a law of the last session, iho person administering the government was au thorized to treat with the First Christian party of the Oneida Indians, and the Orchard party of the same tribe, f»r the purchase o f their lands; and to appoint an agent to accompany such of them as should choose to emigrate, to Green Bay. Under this law, the late governor con cluded a treaty with the First Christian party, for the purchase of a portion of their lands; and at an early period of the summer, I appointed an agent, who accompanied a large party of them, and saw them comfortably settled. After his return, and in the month of September last, I concluded a treaty with the same party for the purchase of the residue of their lands. It is supposed that the re mainder of the people of that party will emigrate to Green Bay, in the course of the next summer. By these purchases, we have become possessed o f about 3,470 acres o f valua ble land in the heart of the State, wliich will soon be put into useful cultivation by respectable freeholders; and have re moved thereby, from a state of tempta tion and misery, to a situation better fit ted to their natural habits and the im provement of their condition, a small de generated remnant of a once formidable and heroick race. It is to be hoped, that those who remain will be tempted, by the improved condition of their brethren, soon to follow their example. In fulfilment of the duty imposed upon jne by the act of the last session, to ere ate a fund for the benefit of the creditors of certain monied corporations, I have designated the first Monday in February next, as the day for the meeting of the delegates of the several banks, at the city o f New-York, and the village o f Au- Woj to appoint bank commissioners un der that law. The provisions of the law have re ceived the decided approbation of the publick; and it is to be regretted that it has not been satisfactory to ail the exist ing banks. Those in the city of New- York are the principal complainants; al though I learn from other p-arts of the State, that the severity of those provi sions in the revised laws, which are made, by reference, part of the genera! law of last winter, will tend to-weaken, rather than strengthen the publick security, by driving men of character and responsi bility from the direction. I have reason to believe that the banks in New-York are now prepared to relinquish their op position to the safety fund and supervi sion, and accept their characters, provi ded a modification of the harsh features of the revised statutes can beli(tt)tained, and the local tax, now imposed directly upon the banks, be withdrawn, or placed upon the stockholders. The provisions of the revised statutes, from sections eleven to seventeen inclu sive, were adopted previous to, and with out reference to the general law, and were supposed to cuotain within them selves the best security to the communi ty. It is worthy of consideration, whether the law of last winter, creating a safety fund, and a board of visiting and examining commissioners, does not afford all the guarantee for the soundness of bills, which it is in the power of le gislation to devise. If an application should be made on the part o f the city banks, your sense of their intimate connection with the pros parity of the city, and their importance to the commercial operations of the State, will unquestionably induce you to give to it favourable consideration. The unfortunate controversy between this State and New-Jersey, respecting the boundary line, still continues to ex cite much feeling, and has been product ive of somd' violence between citizens of the respective states. To bring the question of right to a legal decision, New-Jersey has seen fit to institute a suit against this State in the United States court. I have employed able counsel to assist the attorney general ; and they, on consultation, have come to the concluaion, that under existing laws, that court cannot take cognizance o f the cause, and have therefore declined to appear. It is certainly desirable that this source of irritation between us and our sister State, should cease to exist; snd I respectfully submit it to your wis dom to devise auitabU measures for its lemoval. I send you herewith the at- lorney-general’s report on that subject. One of the suits instituted on the tlaiin of John Jacob Astor against the grantees of the State in Putnam county, Was tried in the circuit court of the Uni- 'ed Stales, held during the month of Oc tober last, and resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff. A case has been made to he submitted to the supreme court, em bracing many questions of law, upon ^'hich the counsel for the State have hopes of a favourable issue. The cause ‘Expected to be brought to a hearing at the opening o f the court in January; and ftom its importance, I have deemed it Oecessary to direct the attorney-general, ''those report is herewith transmitted, toaitend the argument at Washington. The Revised Statutes^ went into full operation on the first day of the present •honth. Their recent enactment will •dieve you, for the present, from much legislation on general subjects. Our laws are now clothed in plain language, Collated and arranged under proper h‘ads amended in many respects, and Pstinto a shape adapted to long contin uance. The revision has been perfected ^ith great industry and ability, and is highly creditable to the distinguished Santlemen who were charged with it, and to th e le g isla tiv e bodies-, w h ich passed upon and adopted the result of ^aeir labours. , Ocr late Governor, whose administra- «on, although of short duration, has left impress upon our publick policy, pre- ®hnted forcibly to the consideration of jhe last legislatare, the propriety of to prevent the corrupting tendency p the use of money at elections.

E. T. THROOP. Albany, January 5,1830. C A T S K I I i l i . T ilU iR S D A Y , J A N U A R Y 7. T he N ew -Y ear — Such an apparent contradiction between the climate and the season, perhaps never existed, as at the commencement of the present.year. It is almost mid-winter, and if such weather should last for a week in the usually mild month of April, it would be pronounced by every weatherwisemarvellera “ remarkably moderate spell of weather.” What to think of it now, we know not. It is certainly far from being pleasant. A pretty hard frost, and a foot or two of snow, would be prefer able to all. But w'e are not weather ma kers, if we do print Almanacks; and such weather as falls to our lot, be it winter or summer, is the best,—for we can have no Other. If this season is any criterion by which to estimate the probable meteo rology of the year, we need not ask for any more favourable prognosticks. If not, we are still left in that salutary uncertainty, which Providenc’, in the plenitude of its wisdom, hangs over all its future-works. But the New-Year has very little to do with the weafoer. New-Year is New-Year, whether it comes blustering with north westers and snow, or piping hot from the south end of dog-days. There will be the same merry making, the same general and select parties, the same frolicking and fun, whether the locomotion necessary on the occasion be effected through the medium of snow and sleigh befls, or the rolling of wheels, to the disturbance of three feet of mud, and the bespattering of camblet. broadcloths and merinoes. But let thaj lass. Let those make merry who will, though it makes them sulky a fortnight after. cheerful countenance is desirable at all times; but a countenance too full of cheer on one day more than another, is apt to wear a crabbed look the next. The cup of tindness never runs over without tipping jt too much; and what is spilt is lost forever. What will happen the current year, it is not for us to say. The chronicle of its events may be learned of him who lives to record them. From no other source will they be known to mortals, otherwise than by immediate experience. But many events which will not happen, can be easily enu merated, without contradiction. No one will grow younger this year, that is certain. Some may grow wiser,if they do not know too much already; and some may grow more foolish, if the thing is notimpos- sible in terms. Some will grow Older, be yond a doubt; but if any body grows young- it must be a secret hitherto unpractised by mortals. Sam Patch will not jump again, during the current year. The river will not be frozen so as to be passable by teams during the month of July. The sun will not be visibly eclipsed at midnight. We shall not see the full moon at noon. O. F ire .—About 5 o’clock on Tuesday morning, our village was alarmed by the cry of fire. It originated in a building nearly adjoining the dwelling house of Mr. Geo. Hardenburgh,'in Hill-street, and occupied by him as a barn and wood house. The building was consumed. The dwelling house was threatened, but there fortunately being little wind, it was saved. The fire was said to originate in a cask of ashes. Several narrow escapes from conflagration by the same cause, lave happened very lately in our village T he LfiaisLA-TtmE.—Tuesday last was the day appointed bylaw for the meeting of the legislature. At 12 o’clock, says the Ar- ;u3, both branches convened in their respec tive chambers. In the Senate, the new members havipg taken the official oath, Hon. W ttttam . . M OiiivER was elected Presi dent pro. tern. In the Assembly, 123 mem bers answered to their names, and the oath prescribed by the Constitution was adminis tered by the Secretary of State Upon a ballot for Speaker, Gen Root had 93, Fran cis Granger 30, Blank 4. Wherupon Gen. E ra s t u s R oot was declared duly elected Speaker. His address on being conducted to the chair, we shall publish in our next. It is gratifying in the extreme to find the old veteran republican at the head of the popular branch of the legislature. There is perhaps not another man in the state whose experience, to say nothing of other qualifi cations, has so fully fitted him for the sta tion; Add to these his genuine republican feeling, and his character for economy in questions relative to the expenditure of the public moneys, and we consider the choice peculiarly flattering to the interests of the republican party, and the state at large. G. O* Our advertising patrons, and others who are cut short of a place in our paper of this week, must keep company with several favourite articles o f our own,, to which we have been compelled to ex tend the principle of “ wait awhile.” The Governor, big as he. is, troubles us with his long talks only once a year; so let those who are like us, ready to speak at any time, wait till our turu comes. G. Congress, Wednesday, Dec. 30.— In the Senate the Committee on Finance were directed by a resolution to inquire into the expediency of establishing a uniform currency for the United States. Several resolutions were offered for fu ture consideration, several petitions pre sented, and one or two private bills passed matured stages. In the House of Representatives a message was received from the Presi dent, giving notice that he bad signed the act for repairing and fitting out the frigate Brandywine. Another message was re ceived transmitting the report of a aur vey and estimates made under an act of Congress directing the practicability of a canal or rail road between Altamaha and Tennessee rivers to be ascertained. Several private bills were reported. Mr. Hunt’s resolution directing an inquiry by the Committee of Publick Lands, into the expediency of distributing the nett proceeds o f the sales o f lands among the ieVAral states for tbg purpose o f educa tion and internal improvement was taken up. Mr. Polk, of Tennessee, made a motion to lay it on the table which was negatived, 72 yeas to 95 nays. Mr. Bu chanan spoke in favor of the resolution, but suggested a modification of its ierms. Mr. Test also spoke on the subject, when the hour for the debate elapsed. The House then took up the hill for establish ing the compensation of its own mem- bors. The bill was amended and or dered to be engrossed for a third reading. It directs the compensation for travel to be made by the shortest post road to the member’s residence, and that the days on which the member was absent from his seat be deducted from his account for the session.— N~. Y. Ev. Post. Congress, Thursday, Dec. 31 .—In the Senate, the bill for the relief of the heirs of John T. Cox was passed, and the bill grant ing preemption rights to settlers on the pub lick lands was ordered to be engrossed to a third reading. Mr. Webster appeared and took his seat. In the House 9 f Representatives, Mr. McDuffie reported a bill making appropria tions for certain arrearages accruing in the naval service for the year 1820. It was re ferred to a Committee of the Whole in the State of the Union. The proposed distri bution of the publick lands among the states was then taken up. Mr- Test, of In diana, addressed the house, and was fol lowed by Mr. Blair, of South Carolina, who was against the distribution until after the payment of the publick ilebt. The petition of Thomas D. Arnold, against the return of Pryor Lea as a member of the House from the State of Tennessee, was then taken up, the Report of the Committee of Elections allowing Mr. Lea his seat was read, and Mr. Arnold appeared in behalf of his own petition. Mr. Arnold attacked the Committee of Elections, asserting that the Report was not made upon the testimony before them. He was replied to b> Mr. Alston, Chairman of that Committed, who explained ttie view s of the C o m m ittee in drawing up the Report. Mr. Arnold, in the course of his subsequent observations, made the charge of bribery against Mr. Green, a Senator from the State of Kentucky, which was indignantly replied to by Mr. Polk A resolution was then adopted for printing such of the documents relating to the con tested election as should be .ipproved of for that purpose by the Committee of the Judi ciary.—jEu Post. From the N. Y Ev. Post, January 2. SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EU ROPE.—By the arrival last evening of the packet ship Caledonia, Capt Rogers, which sailed from Liverpool on the 1st of December, we have received Lloyd’s List and London papers to the 30th of November, and other foreign journals to the 1st o f December inclusive. Mr. M’Lane/our Minister to the Court of St. James, continue to hold frequent interviews with the British Ministers. On the 27th of December he had acon- ferenee with Mr. Vesey Fitzgerald, at the office o f the Board of Trade, and on the day fallowing he visited the Earl of , Aberdeen. The weather has been uncommonly tempestuous on the British, Irish and French coast, and in the Northern seas. The damage to shipping and the los.s of lives is very great. The whole coast is strewed with wrecks and pieces of ships thrown on shore. The Liverpool Albi on says.—“ It is a circumstance worthy of remark, that fhere are at present only Jbur American vessels in the port of Li verpool. Such a circumstance has not, we believe, occurred since the peace of 1815. The ships in port are the Caledo nia, John Jay, Alexander and Pluto. It is nearly three months since the last ves sel for Liverpool left the port of Charles ton. Easterly winds have prevailed since our last, the arrivals at this port, as well coastwise as from abroad, have been unusually few. We regret to state, that the strong easterly gales which have pre vailed have caused serious disasters to the shipping on the east coast of Ireland as well as of England. We refer to the Shipping Intelligence for the names of the vessels which have been unfortunate ly wrecked. Among them is a fine steam er belonging to the City of Dublin Steam Companyi,” \ The winter has set in unusually early in Great Britain. There were several heavy falls of snow the latter part of November, which had blocked up the roads and prevented the regular arrival of the mails in London. London, Nov. 28.—It is stated that the Brussels police have obtained informa tion by which they have been enabled to trace the robbers who so audaciously stole the jewels of the Princess of Or ange. It is stated that the thieves are at Liverpool, from which place they are trying to procure a passage to America. Accounts from Madrid to the 18th inst. state that 8000 stand of arms had been ordered in Holland, on account of the Spanish government, to complete the arming of the intended expedition a- gainst Mexico. Caution in the use of Leeches.—Ann Morris, a girl twelve yeais of age, resid ing in Manchester, was affected with a sora throat, which obliged h^r same weeks ago to leave her work. Leeches were prescribed by an apothecary, and applied by her mother on gfcing to bed. She was found dead in the morning, bathed in blood. The leeches had opened the jugular vein. W ilmington , N. C. Dec. 22. A negro woman, the property of Mrs. Ann Smith, of this place, was burned to death on Friday night last. The cir cumstances of the case are such as to lead some of our physicians to the opinion that this was a ease of sponta neous combustion, the woman having for a length o f time been in the habit o f in- templiance. She was in her senses whenThe Doctor was called in, and per sisted in saying she was hot on fire, but that she felt a dreadful burning at the bot tom of her stomach, and begged for something to relieve the pain. We un derstand that she was so badly burnt that her intestines fell out before she died. Small Pox .—The varioloid, or small pox has made its appearance in Roches ter, and has excited the attention of physicians and the fears of citizens there: and the Quebec Gazette of the 17tb inst. states that the disease is making rapid progress in that city. It has shewed itself in ail classes of society, and-a-nuraber of persons have fallen victims to it. In several instances those who have been inoculated with the kine pox, have been infected. W« mention these facts par ticularly for the purpose of suggesting to our own citizens the propriety of oon- tinuing the preventive means of vaccina tion; for, owing to the continued influx of foreigners, there, are few towns more exposed than this. In Rochester, Dr. P. Tobey, after al lading to the difference of opinion as to the name of the disease, whether the varioloid or small pox, and to the lit tle importance of the difference so long as the nature of the disease and its best preventives are well understood, com municates the following through the Rochester Daily Advertiser, as facts that have been established by the most emi nent and experienced physicians of this country. 1st. The varioloid is a modified form of the small pox. 2d. I t will communicate the genuine small pox in those who bav#' not been ! {ireviou^jr protected either by the amall pox or the kina pox. 3d. Only a^small portion of those who have had the kinp pox will have t.he nlod- ified form of the small pox. ' 4th. When the modified form o f small pox occurs after the kine pox, it is so mild as to be wholly free from danger. 5th. A small proporticn of those that have had the small pox will also have it the second time in the modified form. 6th. VYhen the modified small pox oc curs after the small pox, it is a more se vere disease than when it occurs after the kine pox. - 7lh. The kine pox being free from . danger of any considerable inconven ience, and the modified form ofthe small pox, when it affects a person that has had the kine pox, being milder than when it affects a person who has had the small pox, establishes beyond all controversy that the kine pox is preferable even to the small pox itself as a prophylactick 8th. During some seasons, there is an almospherick influence or other cause that greatly predisposes to, or renders the system highly susceptible of, certain diseases; and if the contagion, or other exciting cause of that disease, be applied at this time, the disease will more readily and certainly be produced than it would be in ordinary seasons. Hence the great number of cases of the modified small pox in certain seasons. The Age o f Improvement — ^The follow ing are accounts of rail-roid facilities, which even, in this age of improvement, are near ly incredible and extraordinary;— Extract of a letter from W. Brown, Esq. received at Baltimore, per the Wm. Byrnes, dated Liverpool November 6. “ Mr. Winans and George A. Brown have just returned from Rain Hill about 12 miles from this city, on the Liverpool and Manchester rail road, where they have )een amusing themselves riding on Mr. Stevenson’s Locomotive Engine, at the rate of twenty miles per hour—drawings .ibout thirty passengers. She is represented to h-i ve gone, one mile a minute and six teen seconds (about forty miles an hour)— but this Mr. Stevenson himself can scarcely credit, She drew forty two tons, on a level road fifteen miles per hour. New lail Roads are projecting all over the coun try—a meeting is to be held on Wednesday to create a company to carry one to Bir mingham. “ Canal property is ruined. I believe the Sanky has fallen from £1800 per share to £600. In fact, they are even anticipating that it may be necessary to let the canals dry, and to lay rails on them. The canal property in this couiUfy has cost about thirty millions of pounds sterling—its length about 2600 miles.” E eeme , N. H Dec. 25. Shocking Catastrophe ,—On Thursday evening last, Mr. James Foster, a pensioner, in the employ of Col. Parker, Inkeeper at Winchester, took a horse and assisted to get a loaded team up the hills on the Richmond Road. Having accomplished the object, he probably made stirrups of the harness chains, and mounted to return. In the cours. of the evening the horse was seen to pass into the stable at a quick rate, apparently drag ging something at his heels. On getting a light, the remains of poor Foster were found—his body horribly mangled and his bones broken, with one foot fastened in the chain of the traces. He must have been dragged more than a mile on the frozen earth. —— Travelling Titles .—The Wushington Chronicle, speaking of titles, say , that some time since, twenty five gentlemen, strangers to each other, assembled together at dinner, on board aefeamboat on the Ohio. They were principally from the states of Kentucky, Tennessee anu Ohio At dinner the captain of the boat said, addressing one oFthe company whom he knew—“ Gene ral, shall I help you to a piece of roast beeP’ —upon which, twenty-three out of the whole number, replied to his civility, affir matively or negatively. ’Tis a pity the militia are getting into disrepute in the states, it was so easy to pro cure high sounding titles— Cow. Sf Eng. Large Dividends. —Tlie President and Directors of the Ocean Insurance Company have this day declared a regular dividend of 6 per cent., and an extra dividend of 10 percent., making together 16 percent, on their capital stock for the last six months. The Neptune Insurance Company 6 per cent.' The New-York Insurance Company 5 per cent. Franklin Fire Insurance Com pany 4 per cent Merchants’ Fire Insurance Company 3 | per cent. Manhattan Compa ny per cent— Ev. Post, Jan. 4. The Erie Canal is free from ice aiid navi gable from this city throughout the entire line to Buffalo. This, we believe, Is unpre cedented. The river is also entirely free from ice; and the weather continues mode rate, though not as mild as during the past week.— d:b. Argus, Jan. 1.
