SStljlg 'S' luirsilaif ilrritfti^, , ft arch r£*) Wu learn with much regret that a belief is very generally entertained in the country that small pox, mea/.les, cholera, and scarlet fever are raging to such an extent in our city, as to make it dange rous to visiters. V e have taken some pains to in quire into the truth of the rumor, and find that there is no small pox and no cholera in town, ifhy the latter is meant the Asiatic Cholera, which is generally supposed to he contagious. No case of that disease has occurred yet in tho United States that wo have heard of—certainly none, nor any thing resembling it in our city. We are happy to he able to state, that the scarlet fever is subsiding. The measles arc more prevalent than usual; but, wo presume no city in the Union with a population ns great us Richmond is ever free from that disease. It is chiefly, if not entirely confined to tho very young. Our friends in the country may rely upon tho accuracy of our information. The following letter and proceedings of a meet ing in the State of New York, together with an extract from the Commercial Advertiser, shew very plainly, that the charge of treachery in Mr. Van Huron, to his early friend Judge Vail Ness, is no thing new ; and tho latter is particularly valuable, nt this time, to our neighbor ot the Enquirer, in his promised examination of that subject, as it will enable him to give tho proper direction to his enquiries : Extract of a Latter to the Editors, dated Washington, March 24th, 1832. It is understood here, that .Mr. Speaker Steven son has been active in impressing upon the Public a belief, that the rejection of Van Huron has produ ced great rc.action in his favor in New York, whereby, by the way, lie admits that Mr. V. B’s standing was dubious before—if not, that he was positively unpopular, that at least a re-action was nccesssary to sustain him. The Speaker founds his statement upon a letter from the Patroon_ Mr. Van Rensselaer. Mr. V. R. may have express, ed such a belief-—but mingling as little as he does, in the public affairs of his State, and confined to his room by ill-health, and judging from the feeling .in Albany alone, he must be an incompetent judge. Better testimony has this moment been put into my hands, from a gentleman of high standing, and discriminating mind, who resides in a county contiguous to Albany—it is this: “1 may not be correctly informed, as to the pro sent popularity of Mr. Van Burcn, but do not, from the information daily received from his friends and opponents, hesitate to say, that the information given to Mr. Stevenson, is incorrect—so much so, that it is generally said and believed, that every at tempt of his friends to get up meetings, and create excitement,has been a complete failure, except in the ( ity of Albany, and there no opposition was made. In this County, it was certainly a mortifying fail, ure. In Columbia, the National Republican Meet, ing was one of the most numerous and respectable ever brought together there—the inclosed resolu tion speaks these sentiments:—Mr.-, who always has been the decided friend of Mr. Van Hu ron, spont the afternoon with me to day, and fully agrees with me in the above opinions; and gave it as his decided opinion, that he would not suffer himself to be brought forward as Vice President, there being no chance for his success—that lie could not now be elected Governor of this State, should he wish it—Mr.-nevertheless feels for Mr. V. IPs situation, and regrets, as many oth. ers do, that he has made himsclt so obnoxious. 1 his feeling is generally felt by his particular ac quaintances, though they disapprove of his politi cal course. 1 certainly sincerely regret hearing him spoken of in the harsh manner that I daily sec in the papers, though I consider his measure's injurious to the country.” “General Root is correct, when he says that the rcsoluions of our Legislature ure no evidence of public sentiment here—there is no doubt but that our people arc a great majority favorable to the re. chartering of the U. S. Hank, nor that the Presi dent's Veto would jeopardise his election.” “The late decision of the Supreme Court re. sporting Georgia, appears to occupy the thoughts ot all, and to lie the all-engrossing topic of conver sation. .Should the President refuse to carry the decision of the Court into execution, he would ha\c few friends left in this part of the country." I'font the I roi/, (Ar. Y.) Sentinel. COLUMBIA COUNTY. I lit: National Republicans of Columbia County met in Convention at Hudson, on the 29th Feb. niary. Strong and energetic resolutions were passed, reprobating the conduct of Martin Van Ilmen, and approving the conduct of the U. S. Senate in rejecting tho nomination of that grand deceiver. 1 lie Convention cordially approved the nominations of Hk.nry Ci.ay and John Skiujf.ant. There is a deep sense pervading the intelligence of the county, says the Columbia Republican, that wc have been degraded in the eyes of the world: that, as a nation, wc stand humbled before the British throne; lliathut tor tlie redeeming spirit which was found in the Senate, wc might have looked in vain lor halt a century to coino, to he restored to our former high standing in the rank of nations. On the whole, our friends may be assured, that al. though there are m*ny hero who xceep, there are MOUK who rI'Joicf—and that tho motto of old Co lumbia isnndwill he—NO JACKSON_NO VAN BURE\—NO DEMAGOGUES ! The following resolution shows how well the Kindcrhook Jockey is known in his native coun ty: Resnlccd, That in the opinion of this Conven tion, a large majority of the citizens of this county, " bo are not office holders, or office seekers, see no good reason for condemning the rejection of Marlin Van Huron as Minister to England. His political course is well known and understood here. His opposition during the war to the rc-clec fion ot I resident .Madison, and Ins support of Do W itt Clinton for the Presidency. His subsequent, ly opposing, and supporting, and again opposing 1 Clinton. His pretending, at vVashington, " hilo ’ll the .Senate there, to he in favor of the late Administration ol the General Government.— His flinging otf the mask, ns soon ns lie had re. ceivcd his re-appointment from the Legislature at Albany anil finally, his frequen* changes from one party to another in tho State, deserting this, and joining that which promised to lie the strong est, gives us no confidence in his political consis tency. His decided opposition to the Erie anil Champlain canals, and his sudden conversion in favor of them when he found them popular; and his habitual mid proverbial caution in avoiding di rect responsibility whether as Senator or Secreta ry, arc no very flattering evidences of the wisdom ot a statesman, or the firmness of a patriot. His resignation of the otfiec of .Secretary of Stale, with a salary ot §1(5,(100 a year, and his acceptance of tlic nomination as Minister to England, (the va cancy having been created expressly for the oren sion, by the recall ol Mr. MeLane) with an outfit ol §5.1,000, and a salary of §i9,000, are. bad proofs of republican disinterestedness, and show plainly that considerations of public economy yialded to private emolument and personal ambition. I'ram the Richmond Enquirer. Among all the accusations which have been made against Mr. Van Huron, this is among tho most infamous. It. is from tho Rockbridge Intel ligeneer. “ I he first act of \ an Burcn which brought him into notice, was an act of dishonor. He betrayed the confidence of the late lodge Wm. T. [P.] Van Ness of New York, in whose office |,e was a stu dent. He played the paltry part of an informer, a tale beam, to the political enemies of the Judge, and ho found htr rrecount in so doing Fiom that day to the present tuno the groat secret of hie sue cos* has boon in estranging friend from friend, ru ining the one, and ingratiating himself with tho other.’* , I he Koakhridgc Intelligencer produces no proof * * * these assertion*. But we shall investigate the truth ol these charges, and lay tho result before our readers. l'rnm the New York ('onnnmerrial Advertiser. 1 lie charge here referred lo, ami which the Rich mood Enquirer says ho shall “investigate,” is of serious import, ami no less true than serious. Bull it is not now brought forward for the first time.— I lie lips o| the principal witness being now sealed in death, the charge will doubtcss he denied, al. though it was not denied while the witness lived. 1 he circumstance alluded to, was connected with a political pamphlet, written many years ago, by the late William I*. Van Ness, under tho signature ot Aiusrincs. That pamphlet was written in vin dication of the political life and character of Col. Burr, with particular reference to his conduct in the then late 1’rcsidcnliul election—the nicuiora. hie struggle between tho friends of Jefferson, and tho supporters of Col. Burr, in the House of Repre sentatives. The pamphlet extended to seventy closely printed pages; it was childly pointed against He \\ itt Clinton, Ambrose Spencer, mid General Armstrong, and was written with distinguished a. Idlity; hut from tho severity of its personal attacks, ! A created a prodigious sensation at the timo. | *f was the authorship of tiiis pamphlet, us xvo J believe, which it was said IMr. Van Uiircn, then ; a student with Mr., nfter'vards Judge Van Nuss, J betrayed lo Judgo Spencer—hut the latter scorned j to use the information thus proffered to him by the j informer. In regard to tho authorship of that pamphlet— so celebrated in its day—there was much discus, j sion. It was*perscveringly denied that Mr. Van ■ Ness could have written it; because, as it was al leged, it exhibited too much knowledge and talent for a man then so young. Upon this point, we are enabled to remove all doubt, if any yet exists, in j the mind of the veteran politicians of that day, who are yet on the stage. Judge Van Ness died, I very suddenly, sonic five or six years ago. About j a week previously to his death, being engaged in a conversation with him, in his own library, upon j fl*° °BI political controversies of the earlier part of Jeflcrson’s administration, the suhj ct of the pam phlet in question came up, and Judge V. N. gave a history ol the whole affair. He mentioned the j fact of the authorship having been denied him, up on the ground above stated; and, stepping to a shelf took down a volume of pamphlets, in which was a certificate, or declaration, written with his own hand, in which lie solemnly declared that it was written exclusively by himself, lie remarked— “I shall die one of these days, and I have thought proper, for the satisfaction of my friends, or my fain By, to leave iny testimony to the fact of the au thorship—although, perhaps, it will never he of any particular importance.” The Judge, at tho same time, also showed us a copy of another edition ol the pamphlet, ns published with various alter ations, by the late \ViIliain(?olcmun.—These al terations were material, and the Judge ibought them so much for the worse, that he would not acknowledge it as the same work. If the editor of the Richmond Enquirer is do sirous of investigating the matter thoroughly, let him write to M. E. Davis, of this city. Tub Jeffersonian and Virginia Times.—The Lynchburg Jeffersonian, edited by Richard K. C rallo, Esq., under whose control that paper lias been lor the last two years, has been removed by that gentleman to this City, and the first number was published this morning under the above title. To its worthy and able Editor, we tender the courtesies due to a gentleman and a stranger. However we may differ with him in political faith, an honest difference of opinion is, with us, no ground for personal quarrel. The Jeffersonian and Times advocates the doc. trine of State Rights to the most laitudinous ex tent. It is Anti-Clay, Anti-Jackson, Anti-Van Huron. It is opposed to a Tariff of Protection, save on the article of salt, and we hope the wor thy Editor will add the article of coal also to his saving clause, now that lie has removed to a section of the country abounding in that article. The fol lowing is the closing paragraph of Mr. Crallc’s profession of faith. “On the leading subjects of Stato concernment, we have already given our views. We are the ad vocate of Internal Improvements bi/ the State— and of the System of general Education,—and we are opposed to any further discussion of this Aboli tion Question." Phc Jeffersonian and Times will be published twice a week at §5 a year. In the Senate, on Tuesday, on motion o f Mr. Ellis, the hill for the relief of Jefferson College, in Mississippi, was taken up and considered; and the hill having been amended, on motion of Mr. Poin dexter, was ordered to a third reading. Mr. Wi|. kins, on leave introduced a hill to give effect to an act of the General Assembly of Virginia, authoris ing the commencement of the western section of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, which was read and ordered to a second reading; and the bill hav ing been by unanimous consent read a second time by its title, was referred to the Committee on Roads and Canals. The bill to exempt merchandise im ported into the United States, under certain cir. cumstances, from the operations of the tariff law of 1828, was taken upon motion of Mr. Clay, and after an animated discussion, and the adoption of several amendments, was laid on the table.— The motion lo reconsider the vote on the appor tionment lull was next taken up, and the Senate I determined lo reconsider, by a voto of yens 2G, Inays 21). After a discussion, in which Messrs. Clay, Holmes, Webster, Clayton, Forsyth, Poin dexter, and Marcy, took part, a motion of Mr. j Clayton to commit tho hill to a select committee | of five members was adopted. The committee ! "'as then chosen by ballot as follows: Messrs. Wcb j ster, Clayton, Forsyth, Manguin, and llaync. Mr. j Foot laid a resolution on tho table, changing the hour of meeting of the Senate to 11 o’clock, A.M. I instead of 12 o’clock. In the House oi Representatives, Mr. Davis, of South Carolina, from the Committee on the Judi ciary, reported on the resolution recently introdu ced by INI r. Evans, of Maine, on the subject of allcg. ed official misconduct on the part of the Collector of Customs at Wiscasset, Maine. The Committee desired to be discharged from the consideration of j the subject, and proposed to refer it to the Secre 1 tary of the Treasury. A debate arose, in which j Messrs. Evans, of Maine, Kavanagh, Ingersoll, foster, Bates of Massachusetts Anderson, Daniel, Speight, Polk, WicklilFe, Briggs and Beardsley, took part, when the hour having elapsed, the dis cusssion was arrested by a successful motion • for the order of the day. Mr. VVicklilfo pre sented a memorial, very numerously signed, from persons ir.tcrestedi n the navigation of the Ohio river, complaining of the high taxes levied upon commerce in the passage through the Louisville and Portland canal, and praying Con gress to make an appropriation of §25,000 to re medy the evil. It was rcfoircd to the Committee on Internal Improvements. The hill for the relief of certain insolvent debtors of the United States, I and the hill supplementary to the several laws rc ; Intivc to the sale of the public lands, were several j !_v read a third time and passed; and at half past 1 ! o’clock, the House adjourned. ' Quarantink.—J he Mayor of Boston has notified the collector of that port, that a quarantine has been ordered on all vessels from England, Ireland | and Scotland. ( itoi.r.aA.—The Liverpool paper of the Ifith Fe bruary states that although reports had hern in circiilai mn of some cases of cholera having occur red in that place, they were entirely without burn dation, and that up to that day the disease had cer tainly not made its appearance there. From papers per Olympia, from llnrrr. Extract ok a i.ktter i>.\tei» Lisbon, Jan. 28._ One good point the Government has stumbled upon with respect to the U. States. What the President says in his Message respecting Portugal, is already | realized. The American Minister hero has made a wise arrangement, preferring a promise, or a bill a1 a •Jang dale, for the damages done to American sub. jects, by taking their ships, overlooking insults, and ! marching American citizen sailors in irons, through j the streets of Lisbon—preferring those arrange ' monts to sending a squadron of ships to demand j satisfaction, they have obtained liberty to send riee lo Lisbon on iht uius t«rum au tho most favored nation—15 per cent, duty, and to show that they are in earnest, four or five ships, laden principally with rice, have arrived here within tho last fort night, which the Portuguese will gladly purchase, as tho quality is so much superior to Brazilian rice, and the quantity consumed is immense. Other little matters will find their way hither, in a short time, through the same channel.— Loudon Chron. TO TI1E PUBLIC. • I he Savings Institution of Richmond, common cod its operations in 1^27. It has been gradually growing upon the confidence oftlio public, and ail who have come within the sphere of'its operations, acknowledge the great benefits if dispenses to the community. It wus tlie first establishment of the sort wo believe ever started in Virginia—and the Legislature, in its wisdom, at the session which lias just closed, has given such countenance to its operations as to continue the confidence hereto, tore reposed in it. Tho officers of the institution in order to make it as valuable as possible to depos itors, give their services gratuitously, and the e— ennomy it is calculated to induce; ought to merit the general attention ofsociety. V\ c^ say to the mechanic, to the voung man in business, and to tho widow and guardian, that in this institution they can doposito their savings, it only five dolldra at a time, and u certificate will l>e given for the same, hearing an interest of live per cent, with the privilege of drawing it at their pleasure. In all countries similar benevolent in stitutions have been extensively patronized, and the amount of good which they have produced, is incalculable. Many a family which would other wise have been left destitute, have been enabled to get along, anil to prosper in consequence of a lit tle hoard laid up in a Savings Bank.
