diocy, or insanity, adopt such a principle, 1 will leave him
to ro-modify his “ correct * table, by passing over the #20,-1
000 before named, ami embrac ing only the omission of the I
#*50,505—and then balance the amount with his figures I
uml with his conscience in the best manner ho may.
Mr. Rives appears disposed to complain, that instead of I
testing tlio matter of expenditure by the appropriations.
which he says furnish a general criterion tor “ approxima
ting” the amount, “ the gentleman from Now Hampshire
has Undertaken to furnish from soma source, or other, the
sums, which have befln actually expended.'’
Now, the “ some source or other” of that statement is
none other than the Department of tho Treasury, and the
authority for it, an official exhibit in writing under tliu
hand of the Register. One word more before 1 pass from
lilies topic—Mr. Ktvcs in clfect says, that I have passed off
two for three years of the expenditures of the present ad
ministration. If tin; gentleman will perniittho use ofone
tjfltis select phrases, I say “ in the teeth" of M r. Rives that
such a statement is—incorrect. Hv adverting to my re
marks, in relation to this item, it will be seen, that 1 made
no pretence of including tho expenditures of the present
veur. On the contrary, having stated the sums expended,
in di He rent administrations back for a period of Hi years,
in giving the results of the annual average of each, I ex
pressly compared them with the mutual average of “ the
t wo years” stated of Mr. Adams’s administration, which
shew his to be less, by near $3,000 a year, than tho last
averago of those that preceded.
I have neither time, or inclination now, to go into a con
sideration of the labors of tile Committee on 1’oldie Lxpon
ditures, to which Mr. U. has referred. If a report trout
that Committee shall ever mine up for consideration while
1 may be in Congress, it shall receive front me, at least, a
careful perusal. Nor do I choose, in this font!, to ontur
upon an investigation of the “ uncont radiated” Speech of
his colleague, who is vouched in with some new matter
near tho close of the loiter.— llow much of the Speech ic
ferred to was loft “ uncontriwHeted,” I do not say; hut vo
rv much, which was stated by the gentleman upon his res
olution concerning the disbursing otllcors of* the govern
ment, seemed to me. s> far as records could have done it.
to have been very fairly disproved, l’’or instance : to
shew that tV executive have greater discretionary power
over public monies now, than formerly, by' means of ap
propriations for rotifiugcncirs. he stated that in the first
year o!,Mr. Jefferson’s administration, the appropriations
for contingencies amounted to but .fi 20,000, while in the
the lasL year he made them s 1,11 0,000. He was answer
ed by a reference to the laws of tho U. Stales, Vol. 3, page
448 to 5tH to shew, that the appropriations in 1 «S05>, m
which roiUinjrem ii.s are specified as tin item, amount to
$312,002. 11 e was referred to the U. S. Laws, Vol. 1),
page 7 to 33 to shew, that the same in 1827 amounted to
but $237,431)—and to the estimates for the service of the
year from the Treasury Department,-that, in this year they
are hut $105,252.
In answer to the allegation, that the Kxecitlivo discre
tionary power over the public monies, by means of the ap
propriations for contingencies, ” was greater now than a
ny former period,” a comparison was instituted between
this and the year 1818—and the L. S. Laws, Vol. <!, page
25(> to 302 were cited to shew, that the amount of these
appropriations then was si .305,305—and that in compari
son with the present, four items only exhibit the follow
ing contrast. Tiio appropriations for continj’cncirs in the
Treasury Department, Army, Navy and for Foreign In
tercourse were,

Sn;ne very round statements supplementary, as 1 sup
nose to Ins Speech, are muno by Mr. Rives, at the close of
his letter. Here he says, that •• the whole current expen
ditures of tins government under the present administra
tion exceed the ayfgrcgnle amount of similar expenditures
during an equal period of the last administration by near
steen ihiUions of dollars at the lowest calculation. ” What
the gentleman includes in the term currentcx'ponditures”
is not defined. If he means such sums as are appropria
ted by Congress on their own volition without any demand
from the Executive, ho cannot hut perceive, how unjust
it would be, to attempt to transfer the blame, if there be
any in those appropriations, from ourselves, who make
them, to the Executive. If he includes only such sums as
are appropriated on recommendations of the Executive A.
by which alone responsibility is made to attach to that
Department, then 1 will state one result only from oilicial
records, and there leave this controversy with the gentle
man, now and forever. The statement is this. Ills well
known, that the Secretary of the Ticasury is required an
nually to submit to Congress estimates of appropriations
lor the service of the year.—These are classed under the
heads of Civil Cist—Miscellaneous—Foreign Intercourse
— F.xpunses of the Army including the Military Academy
—Fortifications—Armories—Arsenals and ordnance—
Revolutionary and Military Pensions—Indian Department
Arrearages—Internal Improvements—-Naval Establish

Jackson $f liurr:—One j»«;culiarity in this topic that
would not have been anticipated from the solemn note of
preparation wherewith it was ushered in, is that it has
thus far all'ordcd nothing hut diversion to those engaged
in its discussion ; for if the Whig has been “ much enter
tained at the course oi the Juckson prints upon the sub
ject of this charge,” wo, on the other hand cannot help
smiling every time that i' is touched upon by tin* manag
ers of this impeachment of the next President. Looking
“ever the fast V\ hig, we were about to exclaim out at lust!
" Now comes the tug of war !.” on meeting with a para
graph commencing with the following sentence “The
evidence oi a full understanding between those distin
guished gentlemen” (Jackson cV Burr) “in 1800—7, is
daily developing." But again it was a liilsc dlarm. The
article was merely a flourish introductory to “ another
link in the chain which link is nothing more nor less than
an extract from the Scioto Gazette wherein it. is stated
that • in addition' to some preceding ‘ incontrovertible ev
idence" (so inroutrocrrtiblc that the Whig has not been
aide to spare room for it) “ of Jackson's connexion with
Burr s conspiracy its readers are presented with an ex
tract from a letter from an unnamed writer, to an unnam
edI “ gentleman” wherein it is stated that a certain Judge
illiams charges Gonl. Jackson with having been engag
ed in Burr’s conspiracy, having offered the said Williams
the post of Captain under Burr, and having said “ 1 will
live or die by that.”
r roni a “parturient mountain,’* was flirro over
»ueli a “ imiscipular abortion ?’’ We thought that, at
bast, the Utter xvas reining—that letter from Judge
Williams himself, which tve liavo understood from more
.sources than one, lias been for months in Richmond ;
or, at any rate, has made of that place its lit ad-i/uur
tms. Rut no; tin? Whig prefers a long chain of
conductors to miy direct application—on gentleman
writes to auoiltrr gentleman that Judge W. says so and so:
the tcriter tells the Editor of the Scioto (iazetle, and the
Editor of the Scioto (• alette passes it on to tins Constitu
tional \\ liig. W hat is the meaning of all this indirec
tion ' is it that the letter itself has inconsiderately gone
into details of an inconvenient character—or what ?
MESSRS. BARTLETT ASH HIVES.
We lay before our renders to day the. letters of Messrs.
I.artlctt and Rives, to the Editors of the Enquirer—the
first in reply to Air. Hives’ letter to his Amherst constitu
ent ,and the last a replication to that reply. To thcselot
lers it would he superfluous to request the attention of our
readers. They whose sympathies are with the gentleman
from .V Hampshire,have already made themselves masters
of the merits of bis reply, and arc, no doubt, expecting
witii infinite complacency, Air. Rives’ recantation—seeing
that he is “clearly wrong in many of his statements and
classifications’’ and that it is “ worthy of a man of his fine
talents to acknowledge error when palpably convicted of
it!’. From those wo expect a perusal, reluctant to bo
sure, but certainly we expect that they will peruse it. It
is due to their candor.
They who pride themselves, on the principles which he
has sustained with undeviating consistency, and with an
ability which has placed him among the most distinguish
ed in that band oi patriots and statesmen whose station A
whose duty have required them to tear the veil from the.
Mokanna of the administration—to expose, to t he disgust
and indignation of their countrymen, the festering mass
of corruption at Washington wltich offends the sun and
stinks in the nostrils of the people—they will read these
papers wi’ii unalloyed satisfaction. The (’onstituuMts of
Mr. Rives will peruse them from a principle of republican
duty ; that they may know the doings oftlieir servant and
that their animating “ ivn.r. honk" may cheer him in his
pith of duty pud obedience. They will foci a just A honest
prido in his triumph ; and find, reflected on themselves,
some portion of the distinction which his ability and firm
ness have gathered round him; because they have had
the sagacity to distinguish, and the justice to reward them.
Helms indeed “ doubled up tlio schoolmaster and laid
him on the shelf"— We, who knew him well, placed on
entire reliance on Ills statements—of the justness of his
conclusions every one was qualified to judge f,r himself.
I liesc statements have since been substantially sustained
by ofllcial documents supplied by the administration it
self—the much disputed year of 1825 is given, in the re
ports both of the Secretaries of State and War to Air. Ad
ams—and indeed on all points, the garbled statements of
the gentleman from N. If. arc exposed, his conclusions
routed, and l:c himself blown “ sky high.” Ichahod is
truly a name of omen to Messrs flay A. Co. Since he has
become the chosen champion of the administration t hey
may well exclaim “ 'I lie glory is departed from us.’’
It mny save the renders of the letter- of Messrs. Hives
mid Bartlett some trouble to point out before they com
mence the perusal, that the order w herein they appear in
our columns is the reverse of that in which they should
be rend : Mr. It’s communication being a replication to
Mr. B s attack upon him in consequence of his letter re
published by us, sonic weeks ago, from the I'nquircr.

[For the Advocate]
(iy NTt r wfv From a New York Statesman of last month.
I perceive tlinf a large and rrspeetnble meeting has been
held in that city, •• for the purpose of taking into consid
eration the ruinous effect of the present auction system.’,
I lie result was the adoption of a set of declaratory resolu
tions vehemently hostile to the system ; and appointment
of two committees : the one, “'to act in behalf of (his
meeting in furthering the objects contemplated by the
preceding resolution* the other to “ open an active cor
respondence with others, which may be appointed bv our
sister Cities, for the purpose of producing an tinannuity
and concert of action throughout the country.”
Among the declaratory resolutions, is the, following
r it S° rgv 9 Kl* ,n opinion of f l»in mrefinff, tin: Iuwh
Of the different s’atos gran'ing exclusive privileges to sell
by auction, are at war with principles office trade, and in
direct opposition to the constitution which vests in Con
gress the sole power of regulating commerce.
Besides the objections urged in these resolutions, there
is another; to which they have not. adverted ; but which,
nevertheless, is, in a constitutional point of view, the
strongest th. fhonbnoxious system is liable to. The State
laws imposing duties oil auctions, operate, most palpably,
ds a tax on the consumer ; whether living within or with*
ou» the s ate bv which it is levied And this effect, whelh
r.1 rv'f<,r an tarrident, the States have no rioht
whatever to produce ; i* being directly in the teeth of one
»l tho most notorious intentions of the parties to the con- |
•titution. Doubtless, that intention eould not have ex- ■
ended to tho absolute extinction of the right of taxation '
venders ot imported commodities; in sumo doirreoj I
Ins authority is indispensable to tho muniripal regulation 1
>t the ports and marts of the several states; bul to this (
lecesKury degree, is tho authority restricted; and if tho i
ni.i lie transcended, the spirit of the Constitution is vio
.iied. What ilillereuco does it nuiko to the consuinors, t
ivlielher tho tribute he levied on them, in the shape of an i
import tinty ; or in that ot an miction to c or any other kind <
id sot I- 1 or' It were equally idle us disingenuous to object
tli.it the latter is entirely local; that if tho consumer does '
not sec lit to pour tins tribute into tho collars of Now 1
York, i eitnsylvania, \ irgiuiu or South Carolina, ho may >
cllootio some other port ot entry than Now York, Philadcl- ,
pliia. Norfolk aild ( hurleston. Tho answer is as obvious
as < yiiclusive : 1 ho physical advantages of somo of the
slates, aro such (to which may now he added the concen
tration ot capital, in purt owing to tho existing union) that
they are tho natural importers for their neighbours ; and
hut tor the present union, they might avail themselves of
tins, to levy a very heavy tribute upon them. To exon
crate tlieinsolvos from this* indirect taxation of tho com
mercial states, is well Known to have hten ono of the chief
inducements with several members of the union, to enter
ing into it and granting the regulation of commerce to a
federal agent, for eyample, this was particularly the
cased North Carolina between Virginia on one side, and
her southern namesake,on tho other ; and Jersey, exposed
to the cross lire of NWYork on her larboard, and Phila
delphia on her starboard quarter. In connexion with this
topic. 1 recollect to have heurd a statusiuan of the hv-ironc
day relate Dr. (Iho same, if I mistake
not, whosjo name is early and indissolubly connected
w ith tho Revolution, through tho letters of Hutchinson.

musprs kditoks.— l have noticed in vonr pa
per ot the 17th ult. an account taken from the
Buffalo Journal, of paper made from straw,with
some description of the mode of its manufacture ;
and this is claimed as an original invention which
has been patented. 1 have no disposition to in
terfere with Hie patent, and hope that if the pro
cess be cheap and practicable on a large scale
that it may be brought into general use and the
public reap the advantages of it—hut I am inclin
ed to question its originality. The writer of this
well remembers to have seen sometime, between
the Autumn of 13011 and the summer cf a
letter in the hands qf the late Bishop Madison of
this state, from Dr. liettsom of England, writ
ten on straw paper, which differed*little, if at
all, except in colour, which was of a yellow rath
er paler than gold, from ordinary good letter pa
per. He presumes that the manufacture was not
found to be profitable, as he has seen no specimen
since, and supposes it was abandoned, lie does
not recollect to have seen any notice taken of it
in the public prints of the time. It is notimprob
ablo that the paper may yet be found among the
papers ol Bishop Madison. ° c.

The bill to repeal the Test and Corporation
Acts passed the House of Peers on the i>8th of
April, and was returned to the Jlouse of Com
mons for their concurrence to the two amend
ments. Those amendments are not of a nature
to create opposition, as they have met the full
concurrence °f Ur(j Hollar d and the friends of
the Bill in the l)pper House. The Duke of Wel
lington and several of the Bishops have lately be
come the supporters of the Bill, and the declara
tions of the noble Duke have been, on various oc
casions, of the most liberal character; indeed
t he progress ot liberal opinions with the Duke and
Mr I eel has astonished the country; and no
doubt, we think, can bo entertained of their cxis
tence also with the highest person in the realm
Jim is a pleasing prospect for the Advocates of
Catholic Emancipation. Even in the course of
the last debate the Duke of Wellington incident
ally lemarked, that, “ although he was opposed
to the Catholic claims, and would remain so unless
the question very much altcre,/, there was no man
more determined than lnmself to give his vote a
gainst every proposition which had for its object
any fresh enactment against the Catholics.” This
was said on voting against a clause of Lord El
don s which went to require that every person
taking ofl.ee should declare himself a /’rot, stunt
His Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland
a.o.y returned from the Continent, appeared in
he House, and both spoke and voted against the
Bill. I he following is the conclusion of the de
bate, from which it will be seen that the Bill was
carried almost by acclamation. Who can say
that the country docs not follow (he principles of
Mr. Canning ! or, who will say that we have not
even now a Canning Alinistry ?
Eatl Damley would have been better satisfied
«f (he lull as sent up from the Commons, had pas.
sed then Lordsnp’s House without any amend

if the measure was confined to a simple repeal of
the Corporation and Test Acts, without the sub
stitution of any declaration in place of the tc?t so
long and so justly complnmed of. Had such been
he case, he was convinced the Church of Eti
ami would have stood on a firmer basis than Tt ■
hen did. However, he was ready to take what I *
ic could get with satisfaction: and in doing so^
xpress cd his gratitude for the sentiments whie ■}
md fallen from their L.or<Ulnp’s generally—from 1 *
he occupants of the Reverend and learned bench
n particular—and from the whole qf the members
>f his Majesty’s Government. They had fre
piontly united in applauding the splendid tri
umphs of the Noble Duke at the head ui the pres
ent Administration ; and he (Lord Danilov) was
convinced that the candour and modoration mani
fested by the distinguished individual on the pres
mt occasion, and to that measure, Would, to say
Lhe least of it, do him quite as much credit as any
