An engrossed bill M prescribing the mode of selling lands and lots, vested in the lit eniiy fund for the non-payment of taxes,” » passed. air. Sliiji submitted tbe following reso lution : llesolrct!. That the \uditorof Public Accounts in: required to Inrnisti, lor the information of this House, u statement of the uiiuuul income and expenditure of each County in this com monwealth, including the compensation of their representatives to the House of Delegates for The last five years. On Mr. Rutherford's motion, this resolution was laid on the table. Friday, D*r. 2 1.—On motion of Mr. j\lassic, a committee was appointed to en •j^re into the expediency of erecting ano IM Lunatic Hospital in this State. The Speaker laid before the House a communication from the Governor, fur nishing the information called for by the House, on t!ie subject of pardons of pris oners from tlic Penitentiary, &c. On Mt. \ nncey’s motion, the House resolved that when it adjourned, it would adjourn until Monday week at 12 o'clock. The punctual uttcmlauce of tnc Members of tlic Legislature, and the line spirit by v\ Inch they .seem to be animated in transacting the public business, deserve to be particularly noticed. It w ill he seen under our legislative bead, that the Committee of Finance have made their Report on the Finances of the Common wealth ; and that the Joint Committee, appointed (o investi gate the Accounts of the Treasurer, have per formed tlic duty assigned In them and reported to the House. These reports have not been act ed on and shall hr; noticed more particularly hereafter. The unusually early period at which these important reports have been made, is strongly indicative ot u short session. The other Committees are progressing with their business, in the same industrious spirit. This is however iio more than the people had a right to expert ; but it cannot fail to be gratifying to them. The long sessions of the Legislature, and the conse quent enormous expenditure of public mone>, to disproportionate to the public benefits ncerii ing from their acts, have hitherto been subjects ot complaint umong the people ; and, perhaps, limy have had iio inconsiderable inline nee i.i producing the excitement in favor of a Court u tiun, whniever may lie the red defects of the Constitution.—[llich. F.ntf We are happy to understand, that the board at the University i f Virginia, will not exceed £ 100—Education must there fore be cheap—and the University will rapidly till and overflow. There is no danger of it. While the University of 'i tansylvauia ran ulways command near 301) pupils—V* bile all the Northern Uni versities are filled with a greater number, "hat danger is there that our University "ill not command all the pupils which it can contain;' Under such admirable aus pices too, as it will commence with? There is no danger if its success. Why, then should we interpose any jealousies, or ap prehensions from William and Mary.? i’lace it where you will, it will always lie a subotdinnte institution.—With smaller funds, smaller library, smaller apparatus, A c. Ate.—and with a higher board, it must always play in an inferior orbit, i.pt us then make triends of both, instead of enemies. The College will assist the University, instead of injuring it. It will make Education better—bring it more in demand—improve both institutions—and improve the general mind.— Ibid. Congress. [Proceedings continued from first page ] IN SENATE.

BRILLIANT NAVAL ACHIBVLMKNTS Bi' TUB PATRIOTS. Ry the arrival of tlie ship Hope, Capt. A. S. Di-noan, in forty-seven days from Rio Janeiro, we have tiles of ltio papers to tlie date of (lie sailing of the Hope, and also Ruenos- \yres papers to the Gth of October, lor which we are indebted to the kind attention of Captain Dungan. These papers contain a variety of in telligence, particularly' with regard to a chicvnients of the Patriot Navy under Ad miral Ouise. blockading tlx- Port of Cal lao, which are brilliant and quite new to us, though some of them occurred so far hack as early in July. It is evident from these accounts that there have been many exploits and successes on the side of the Patriots of which we have not yet had any account. Phis appears from the follow ing letter which alludes to a ** brilliant ac tion by the patriot Capt. Adimson,” & of this we never heard before—Phis letter is of great interest. We translate it from FA 'Ingas, Kxtraordiuario, of Ruenos Ayres: Rxtract "f a letter, dated on board IheFrignte Protector, in (lie bay of Callao, July 17th, 1S21 “ My dear friend—In my last I informed you of the brilliant action of Captain A> disou, who, with four boats and fifty volunteers, burnt and sunk sis vessels, fncludiiig (lie Spanish fri gtes V'enganza iind Santa Kosa, and drove fourlci n under the batteries of Callao—it being very r-.uuarknblc that lie performed this service itl11*■ 11 losing a single man—-I have now tile pleasure to •roinnitintc&te to von, that on the night of tiia ninth inst, Admiral Guise despatch .•d Capt sin Robertson accompanied by Capiat, r'b rii.in and l.ieut- aunt Snlmniis, of his vessel, with .me bundl ed and twenty-live men, in nine bonis, to take or destroy u« many of the enemy’s vessels as were in Callao. At his entrance lie was opposed by more than me thousand soldiers and marines in the ves sels, and fifteen hundred artillerists who manned the batteries of the Castles, and kept up a tre mendous fire on our men. Notwithstanding this they effected the object of the enterprise, by de stroying and tukitiglhe follow ing vessels :— The l’nusiuRKT of 20 guns—burnt •It; anna Gordon, flag ship—taken Pkiu.a, formerly of Chili—taken A Brigantine, name unknown—taken The Protector, the Congress and the Marr.doni nn were employed in diverting the attention of the batteries, hut almost all the fire of the latter was directed towards the brave men charged with the destruction of the vessels. We shall not again abandon Ihe blockade of this hay until the surrender of the Castles, or, until tlie ship Jhia, may appear, upon which, (pardon the vanity,) we are determined to erect the triumphant standard of our country. When Captain Itohertsou returned, wc found he had three men killed and twelve wounded, one of whom since died—We had also one officer kil led, named Thomas Williams, a Lieutenant of Marines, and tne Clerk of the Captain of the Congre s, both mortally wounded. The greatest harmony exists between the Li herator and the vice Admiral Guise since the seizure of Colonel Llanco and lieves ; and his Kxcellency is so well satisfied of the patriotism of Admiral Guise, that he has placed under his command tin- Colombian Squadron, and has or dered tiie delivery of forty thousand dollars to •M.

W e have also taken fourcannon, the train,muni t o- , forage mid many m i-kets. “ l"he vanguard of our army is on the other side of Jnuja—Canterac who was within two I‘agues of Cnrhicaclii, when informed of the I'-feat of his vanguard, retired, endeavoring to sustain himself in various points which lie was succr.-sirely obliged to abandon. He finally fortified himself on the skirt of the hill of Apnto, apparently with the intention of maintaining that position, but wit » the sole object of gaining time to save Ins magazines in Guayance. All the mountaineers with their chiefs have joined Ccn. Mn.i.Kn, bringing more than seven hun dred horses and mules, and they arc now anting ngainst the enemy in Cliupaca and Chongos. re inforced by a strong division under Gen. Lara.
