The cv.f;i:iccrs uppoiiitcil to cxHiniiic tlie ilif
fcrcnt routi.-s for a road from Wushiiig-ton to
Ncw-Orkaiis, liavc made tlicir report, an ab-
'tract of wliicli will be found under our con-
i^rrcssional head. Although they h-jvc not ex
pressed an opinion as to the route whicli' should
'hc preferred, yet some pa])crs st itc that there
is an evident Icaninjj in the report towartls the
(astern route—v/e, however, think otiierwise.
IJut it is (piite proba!)le the choice will lie be
tween the eastern and western routes; yet
whichever may be selected, the tlecision outfht
to be made on general principles, without ])er-
inUtin"- local feeling’s and attachments to have
any improper infliu'nce.
V/c be’.ievc such u road woidd be a national
benefit, inasmuc'a ab it would adil greatly to the
facility of communication between remote sec
tioiis of the country, promote intercourse be-
tv.een tlie inhabitants of difCerent and distant
states, and thus tend to remove i>rejudices, to
i.roduce a unity (;f interest and feeling, and
hirengthen the bonds of our happy union. Our
opinions, therefore, will not be at all aflected
hv its location ; wo bhall ho ir. favor of the road,
whether it be construcVd on the c istern, mid
dle or western route. On a qu^ tion of this
kii d, sectional f-.elip.g3, an>! cunsiilcrations of

By an an-ival at IJaltimore from t,'arthagf“n:i,
intelligence has been received of the suirond;
nf the castle of Calloa to the Patriot force
Spain, (’al'ao is on the coast of I’eni, is tlie
port of Lima, from which it is ilistant about two
leagues, and the surrender of the castle, which
guarded the entrance into the port, has depri-
vea Spain of the last foot of grovind which she
held on the American continent. South-Amer-
\ca is now entirely free from her invaders—not
a single bayonet can be raised on the side of
Spain in all those vast possessions which groan
ed under her misrule for two centuries and a
half—and yet the bigoted and insensate Ferdi
nand, who is merely the shadow of a King, and
as weak as he is despicable, has recently de
clared, that hc will never give up his right to
the South-Amcrican states, will never acknowl
edge their independence ; and to cap the cli-
niax of his folly, added, that he had a right to
cxpect the interference of Providence to ena
ble him to re-conquer those ^tates ! Truly,
bipotry and infatuation can go no farther.
It has, within a short time, been whis
pered about, that the President had re
cently attempted to brOte a distinguished
citizen of this slate, and that the bribe
%vas rejected with the utmost indignation.
It was not known in what manner this
tiefarious attempt to corrupt the purity
of our distinguished citizen was made—
but the facts would shortly be made pul)-
lic, and the tohy and the tvhere/ore: and
sure enough, the black transaction has
row come to light. O tempera! 0 mo-
rcsl The President of the United States
has had the temerity to offer the appoint
ment of Charge d'JlJfaires to the govern
ment of Peru, to onr “distinguished fel-
low-citizen, Barcktt Vanccy, Esq. of Cas
well !” and the appointment, as far as we
can lenrn, has been civilly declined. So
much for this daring attemj)! at bribery.
Let the Ex.ccutive do what ho may, or
.ippoint whom he may, his conduct will
be censured, his muiiv'es traduced. If
he “appoiiils his friends to oHice, ’tis
corruption—If he api)oints his enemies,
’lis corruption stijl. If he ajipoiiits his
friend;>, hey.'cyv—if his enemies, he buys!"
Is conduct like "this liberal is there any
thing patriotic in it ? Aiul can it receive
the ai)i»robation of the sedate, the relkct-
Ing iiortiun of 'ihe American peojde —
W’e belieue not.

ut the sessioii has beeti occupied
most elotpient and cflicient compliments
lo Mr. Clay, which the imagination can
readily conceive. If, said he, it be meant
l!iat by his love of civil liberty, he had been
led to regard the condition of these new
nations at an earlifr period than any other
gentleman; or if he fiad displayed greater
sagacity, in foresi'»-ing the results of their
glorious struggle for independence; if it
be meant, tl’.at it had devolved on him to
lead the willing and the unwilling, to di
rect their livnipathies to these nations,
aiifl to welcome them into the family of
nations : if this be meant, then is he the
most fortunate of men.— He had iilenii-
lied himself with a course as glorious in
its rharacier as il will be everlasting in
its conse(piences. If in this free counii y,
he was ihe first to hail kindred freedom ;
if in this wise country, he was the wis
est ; if in iliis gallant country, he was
galiatil the earliest in bringing forward
:iu'se States into the circle of liberty, he
has accoiu;)lished fame enough ; il will
last as long as they last. His reputation
may be envied by the most exalted. -If
ihis be impolitic, (iod grant that I had
suffered it ! If this be wickedness, God
grant 1 had exhibited il !”
A letter froin Washington of March
30, says, “LuslEriday Mr. Handolph
came into the Senate Chamber with a red
flannel hunting shirt on his arm. He
made a motion to adjourn on account of
its being good Friday.—While the mo
tion was under consideration, well, said
he, “I believe I will put on my shirt,”
and hc did pul il on and wore it as long
as he continued in the Chamber.” His
attachment to this garnunt proceeds, I
suppose from the fact, to which he often
alludes in his speeches, that his fallier
raised ‘’a hunting shirt company,” at
the commencement of thv revolutionary
war.
From Mr. R’s attachment to this gar-
irifnt, it must have been afilicting lo him
self, and a‘ subject of deep regret lo his
friends, that it should have got wounded
in the late duel. N. V. Daily Jldv.
The East Florida Herald states that
“large companies are forming for the
federalist apjioinicd, aiul Mr. Clay has
determined to remove all the incum-
iienis who do not come up to his standard
of adhesion to the adaiinisiraiion ; to all
this is added, “after Congress adjourns
there will be a wonderful scattermeni a-
mong tlie country post masters.” One

mercial Advertiser of Thursday lust:
Shorlcing.—There r.e»‘ms to have been more
mischief grting on at ashington the present
session, than we hereabouts are aware «f. In
the .Missouri/Vlvocate of tlie 18th of Fei)ru-
ary, it was stated that an attempt had been
made tipun tiie life of the Hon. I).. 1*. Cook,
member of Congress from Illinois, by a .Senator
of the t. nited States, who, as it is s;«id, dis
charged a horse-jiistol at the head of Mr. C.
while he was in bed at his boarding house.—
I'ortunately the ball lodged in his pillow. It is
intimated that tlie Sen.itor (we forbear to hanie
him) was intoxicated at tlie time. The affair i>
said to have taken place oi^ the niglit of the
13th of January. \\ hen this shocking and dis
graceful story lirst appeared, we could not be
lieve it. Hut the .\dvoeate ot March •!, in re
ply to a correspondent, re-aflivnis the tact, de

ed that members of such institutions,
and who, otherwise, are men of profound

can never attain the dignified charater
which it ought to possess to be useful to

■Xai. IntcUigenccr.
At a Justice Court, held at the State
House in Newport, H. I. on the 3d inst.
an action was tried, brought by F'enner vs.
Eddy, for the amount of subscription to
a certain “new and domplele Biographi
cal Dictionary, containing the Uves and
wharacters of 10,000 persons of all coun
tries, and a skcich of living characters.”
'I'hc ground of objection on the part of
the defendant was, that the volume did
not correspond with the terms of the
prospectus. That instead of giving the
livcb, or even prominent incidents, of the
lives of eminent characters, it gave in
many parts, only the date of birth and
death ; that it was defective and erron
eous, and instanced ihe date of Perry’s
death, and the manner of iNIurat’s massa
cre. lhat. the paper was poor, and the
binding too slight to admit of its being
u useful book, even for reference—and
that the promised frontispiece of twenty
portraits was altogether deceptive, con
taining in no instanc*; any thing like a
likeness.
I'he plaintiff argued that the book was
well bound and printed—that it did con
tain the retjuisile .number of notices and
sketches—that no sul)scriber could have
cxpected the whole lives of 10,000 char
acters in a duodecimo volume of four
hundred pages. 'I’hal it was what the
prospectus purported il to be, a Diction
ary, and that il contained notices of all
(lislinguished men from Adam (for he
had looked no farther) down lo the pres
ent day. Fi'om Confucius (“the Chinese
philosopher,”j down lo Logan (“.he* A-
imrican savage”; and tha'i the plaintifl
had conformed in all things to the j)ros-
pectus, and that il was ^ cheap book at
the price asked.
The Court, in giving its opinion, said
that the .book did not answer ihe descrip
tion given in the pi ospectus-il w as slight
ly and insulliciently bound—was defec
tive in portraits—in many instances in
stead ol a lull biographj of iiulividuals.
It contained the brief epitupli of “born
and died,” naming the yenrs—ihat ihe
case was in the fiaiure of a contract and
i)iHh parties were bound to fullil it. Judg-
