adopted Ly the Senate, making the necessary
call on that Department of the Government.—
This resolution was answered by a message,
dated Janaary 13, 1835, from which we extract
so much as relates to the alledged transactions
of Senator Poindexter with the Bank; the in
junction of secrecy having been removed.
Extract from the President'* Message,
u under these circumstances, and for the pur
nose'of preventing misapprehension and injus
tice I think it proper to communicate, herewith,
a copy of the only report made Jo me by any
director or directors of the Bank of the United
States appointed by the Government, since the
report of the 19th of August, 1833. which is al
ready in the possession of the Senate. It will
be perceived that the paper herewith transmit
ted contains no information whatever as to the
discounting of Notes or bills of Exchange for
the account and benefit of the member of the
Senate named in the resolution; nor have 1
at any time, received from the Government Di
rectors any report purporting to give any such
information.” A.ndrew Jackson.
The foregoing official communications from
the President and Secretary of the Treasury,
exhibit to the world, the most barefaced act of
villainy and turpitude, which could well be ima
gined. _
In the Senate, yesterday, Mr. Southard, from
the Committee on the District of Columbia, re
ported a bill appropriating 8150,000 for the A
lexandria Canal Acqfceduct, to be paid wheu the
work is completed.
The destruction of the Athenaeum, in Haiti
more,4s much to be regretted. In it wore con
tained valuable collections of books, philoso
phical apparatus, cabinets of minerals and
shells, specimens of natural history. &c. &c.—
All these were lost or destroyed.
Anonymous announcements of candidates are
not attended to when received at this office—for
the plainest and most obvious reasons. We
mention this in order that a “Voter” of Prince
William county, who writes an address to an
Individual, and then requests us to announce
that .ndividua! as a candidate for the next Gen
eral Assembly, may know why his request has
not been complied with.
li seems to be thought probable, that the House
of Representatives of Massachusetts will, even
tually, concur in th • vote of the Senate, and thus
elect Mr. Adams to be the Senator from that
State. _ _ __
We copy, from the National Intelligencer, an
abstract of the important Report on Executive
Patronage, made to the Senate, by Mr. Calhoun,
on Monday last. •
Yesterday’s Globe contained an address to the
public, by O. B. Brown, late Chief Clerk of the
Post Office Department, in extenuation and vin
dication of his official conduct. We shall no
tice this more part.cularly heieafter.
The Senate on Saturday, passed unanimous
ly, the bill reorganising the Post Office Depart
ment. This is a striking proof of the corrup
tion of that Department.
Mr. Calhoun is now particularly the object of
the Globe’s abuse. Reason w hy—“The galled
jade w’inc‘*^.u
A great pedestrian match was lately won by
a young aspirant, by the name of Gillet, who
walked 20 miles in the incredibly short period
of three hours ten minutes and a half.
The New-Yofk Journal of Commerce, says:—
The French ship Plienix. Captain Salonne,
from Cette for N’ew-York, with a cargo of Wine,
Drugs, and Dry Goods, went ashore on Hemp
sted Beach during the night of the 5th. The
cargo will probably be most of it saved, but the

Extract of a better from a respectable Frederick
County Farmer.
“I have read with much interest the fate of
your petition f«»r the farther sum of 100,000 dol
lars, to finish the Aqueduct. Alexandria sure
ly has been unfortunate, and probably hardly
d**alt with. The Rail-road to Baltimore and the
Canal lias completely cut us off. or cut Alexan
dria otr from our trade. 1 am of opiniore, how
ever, as well as many others, that if the Alexan
drians would g.v*' the Baltimore price for our
produce, or near it, and the Snicker’s Gap Road
could he opened free of toll, that a large majo
rity of farmers would still trade to Alexandria.
The stockholders here ait willing, generally, to
give the stock and have a free road: what they
would do on the Leesburg Road we have not
yet ascertained: each funner then, with a srood
tea n, would take 20 barrels, which we could
niake a profit at, at 30 cts., having a back load.
At present, even on the Rail-road, the carriage

quired iaij I think it would strike every mind.

over to the County. and overseers appointed to
keep it in order. I .anl st'd an advocate for
Rail roads, but it is rath °r out of °l,r reach—
