B. Steel. It is in two large octavo volumes, and published in the best style of letter press.

The narrative begins with the birth of the illustrious citizen, whose private and public history is traced from boyhood to the close of the last Presidential campaign. These volumes are not only entertaining on account of the yast amount of informationJhey contain in respectto some of the most exciting and important events that have arisen in the progress of free Govern ment, but they are instructing as illustrative of the sure advancement which will, in a Republic, reward great abilities, when united with patriot ism, personal courage and private integrity. In general history public characters are only portrayed under the broad light and glare of popular or forensic triumphs. No glimpses of the man are seen in exclusive commentaries upon the achievements of the statesman. We behold him only upon the apex of fame, like the crown ing glory of a monument.

We admire him in his hiirh AfitntP. no. tvA wnnilpr At trio mirnflaa rf ft which counterfeit the mechanism of Omnipo4 tence. Works like that before us only present the master spirits of their times in their in dividuality. They give a clear insight into the qualities which form the basis of greatness and the resources which build up reputation and renown.

In those portions of the text which treat of the collisionPof parties and the personal con flicts of the distinguished individual whose history is now presented to the public in a form worthy htm and them withhis cotemporaries in the career of fame, the author has been as impartial as could be expected of one who assumed the task of biographer from a profound admiration of his subject. In glancing over the table of contents, we perceive that a goodly portion of the work is devoted to a topic which once absorbed the public mindbutjo inflame it: we allude to the part taken by Mr. Clay in the election of Mr. Adams to the Presidency. The excitement which-was produced at the time spread over the land like a consuming, fire.

It dried up for season all brotherhood and charity in human bosoms. It expired as it were from the exhaustion of the materials upon which it fed. How many changes have c6me over the visions of men since that epoch! How many phases have parties undergone since! How many are there who deny or are ashamed of the course they pursued in regard to that transac tion! Of the prominent actors upon that memorable occasion, many have been gathered to their fathers, others have striven to efface the impression they then assisted in stamping upon the public mind, and some have lived to see the illustrious citizen safely through an ordeal which tested the character of their favorite by the intensity of its. heat. Over the tomb in which the asperities and hatreds of the past arc buried, Time has written 44 forgiven and forgotten." To the political aspirant, these volumes are indispensable.

They contain information it is important he should know; and there is a philosophy in them he should learn. Whilst they teach him the way to distinction, they admonish him that the path is strown with No public man has had brighter or darker days than Mr. Clay; none warmer friends, none hotter enemies. For him the flowers of the Hesperides concealed a dragon; the luscious grape was the lurking-place of the asp. Nor is be a solitary example of a destiny which teaches us, by many instances, that He who ascends to mountain top shall find The loftiest peaks most wrapt in clouds and snow, He who surpasses or tubducs mankind, Must look down on the hate of those below.

Though high above the sun of glory glow. And lar beneath the earth and ocean spread, Round him are icy rocks, and loudly blow Contending tempests on his naked head. And thus reward the toil which to those summits led." To all, these books are valuable as illus trating times ot great pith ana moment; as showing how, under the' fostering influences of free institutions, every son of the Republic has the temple of fame open to him, and how a great man bears the most overwhelming disap pointments Ship Building in Ohio.

Prentice says that an editor was kicked the other day in Illinois by Mr, Henry Webb. The fellow sought to make his escape by jumping into the Mississippi.

Another rumor was circulated in Cin cinnati on the 10th to the effect that the Hon. T. F.

Additional, Standing Committee. -The Speaker announced the following aa a standing committee on Public Lands: Messrs. Texada, Phillips, Welham, Shields, Farxar, Peck and Cullen. A from the inhabitants of the parish of Ascension, praying the Legislature to fix the seat of Government at Donaldsonvilre, was submitted to the House by the Speaker. i i TT Read and laid on the table subject to the call ot the House.

Mr. Smith, on behalf of the committee to whom was referred the memorial of inhabitants of New Orleans praying for the abolition of the requiring citizens Aia teJ Dinns ana aeains, repuneu a 0 act requirihg such registry. Read the first time. Mr. Smith also offered a resolution instructing the Committee on the Fenitentiary to inquire into certain alleged abuses existing in the management of that institution.

Adopted. A memorial was read from the Ne Orleans Catholic Association, praying for relief for the Orphan Boys' Asylum. Referred. Sir. Wiltz presented a resolution setting forth, that as every public officer who has failed to pay over moneys due the State is disqualified from holding a seat in the House according to the new Constitution, therefore a special committee of five be appointed to inquire whether any such are members of the House, and report thereon.

This resolution was seconded by Mr. Pilie, who urged its adoption in a brief but very forcible manner. He hailed the new Consti tution as an instrument which, if steadfastly adhered to in all its provisions, would be the precursor of a new era of honor and integrity in our public institutions. He trusted, therefore, that the resolution would be carried out and its obiects fulfilled. The resolution was adopted and referred to the Election Committee, Mr.

Wiltz being added thereto. On the order of the day being taken up the bill to locate the eat of Government Mr. Ogden moved to postpone its consideration, and make it the special order of the day for Tuesday next. To tins Mr. Kead was opposed, and contended that a matter of Buch vast importance should not be postponed.

The Speaker said he hoped it would, particularly as there were but few members present. He was sure that a subject so profound would be treated as it ought, and asked as a favor of the House to postpone the question until Tuesday. Postponed, On motion of Mr. Phillips, the Committee on Finance were instructed to report a Revenue bill. A bill was presented by Mr.

Smith to license Pilots for the port of New Orleans and it was moved to refer it to a special committee. Mr. Moise opposed the reference to a special committee, on the ground that there was a standing committee to whom it properly should bo re ferred. Mr. Bullitt could not understand why this bill, and all other bills brought into this House, should not take their natural reference.

If the Committee on Commerce could 'not dis pose of all the business confided to them, let a special committee be appointed but he saw no reason why every bill brought in should be referred to special committees. Ho hoped the bill would be referred to that committee to whose consideration it most properly belonged. Mr. Smith, termed the present system of pilotage an odious monopoly, and one which was exercising; the most banelul muuence on our commerde. The matter had been for years be fore the Legislature, and therefore he trusted that a special committee would be appointed, who would strictly investigate the system and sift the monopoly to its core.

The Legislature of Louisiana has become a by-word for the shameful neglect that had been shown to this subject. Mr. MoTse replied that he was glad the gentleman, to whose party he (Mr. did not belong, had at last learned to set his face against monopolies. He (Mr.

should have seen, however, that the subject has been already in the hands of the opposite party, the whigs, and that the whigs, when, they had the power, did but little in the matter. He believed that the Committee on Commerce were as well able to investigate the subject as any other" that could be appointed, and as a member of that committee (Mr. Bullitt) was not anxious to shift the burthen from their shoulders, he trusted the matter would be left in the hands of those to whom it most properly belonged. He believed this outcry was raised solely for the purpose of breaking down a political party, because in the last election there were 211 votes polled at the Balize 210 for Johnson and 1 for his opponent. Thia was the true secret of the outcry of mo Mr.

Smith said that he was aston ished to hear the observations that had just fallen from the member from Plaquemines. Jle made an appeal to the democracy of the House, because the democracy had stood by him in the last election. He hoped it had not come to that, that the commerce of thiB great city was to be marred by party politics. We are, he said, free citizens of a free State, and every man should be free to perform that labor which he prefers there should be no monopoly. was a gross and shameful monopoly, and he hoped that it would be soon blotted out of our statute books.

He, for one, hoped that questions in which the good of the people are con cerned would not be settled by appeals to par ties. Are we to submit the interests of agriculture, of commerce, of arts, of manufactures, to the test of the whig or democratic feelings of this House Legislators should not be guided by party feelings in such questions as these. He would trust to the Committee on Commerce to investigate this matter as soon as any other, but he believed those gentlemen would have such onerous duties to perform would preclude the necessity of their paying that attention to this subject which its importance demanded. It being decided, according to the rules of the House, that the motion to refer to the standing committee should take precedence of a motion to refer to a special one, the former was put "om the chair, and the ayes and noes being 00 a called for it was carried 47 yeas to 28 nays. The House then adjourned to Monday morn ing at 10 clock.

In the Senate. A committee of seven members was appointed, to act with a commit tee of the House, for the purpose of dividing the State into Judicial Districts. It was or dered, on motion, that a minister of thegospe bo invited to offer up prayers morning'at the opening of the proceedings. A bill was introduced by Mr. Stanton, having for its object to modify the amount of bail, the removal of onerous fines in certain cases, and the abolition of capital punishment.

The Senate then ad journed. Er There was an outbreak among the work men on the railroad in Fitchburg, on the' 9th inst.

and the causes which led to it. and thev mav not prove uninteresting. oi We give as many extracts aa we have room for. It wa a melancholy finale to a strange history The partieato the duel were Dr. Dan'l Johnson and Thos.

F.Jones, a lawyer, both-residents of Hertford, North Carolina. They were warm friends. Johnson was unmarried, and was practising medicine in Hertford. Jones is married to a daughter of Gen. Devereaux, of Perouimons county, N.

C. At the house of Jones Dr. Johnson was a constant visitor, and the greatest intimacy existed between him and all the family so intimate, indeed, were they, that when Jenes left Hertford, to come East to fight, he left the sister of Dr. Johnson at his bouse, where she had been on a visit tor several days. The quarrel grew out of this: Jones, in going home one day, jfound on the table in the parlor, a note written in pencil, signed 44 Daniel," and addressed to his (Jones's) wife.

The terms of the note were improper. Jones immediately took the note to Dr. J. accused him of writing it, and insisted that he should have 44 satisfaction." Dr. J.

denied the charge admitted, however, that the handwriting of the note was so much like his that he might, from the very likeness, be couvicted before a jury of having written it. His protestations seemed to have weight with Jones, and it was then suggested by Dr. that another person (whom he named) had written the note, with a view of destroying their intimacy. The affair here then rested, and Jones expressed himself satisfied. In a day or two, however, he returned, declared that he had reviewed the whole matter, was convinced that Dr.

J. was guilty of having written the note, and thereupon a written challenge was sent. Dr. J. stated in reply that he should leave in a few days for Maryland, where Jones would hear from him.

Both parties appear now to have set themselves to work to settle their affairs. Dr. Johnson gave out that he was going to New Orleans, left the place, wrote for his brother-in-law. Dr. Henderson, who practises in the town of Sals-burg, in the interior of North Carolina, and they met and came to Maryland together.

Here they arranged matters, and Jones was written to, notifying him that Dr. J. was prepared to meet him. In the days that intervened, before Jones got on, Dr. J.

occupied his time in visit-ingflthe public places round about the city; but the knowledge of bis difficulty had got-abroad, and he was pointed out as the mun who had fled from North Carolina to escape the anger of an injured husband, who, it was said, had gone to Iew Orleans alter him. As soon as Jones sot the letter he came on, and the arrangements for the meeting having been perfected, they met at Bladensburg early on Mondav morning, having spent the previous nlirlit tn WaoViinirtAn uiiii ai vuicuiau Df hi aoiiiugiuu I he terms were, that they were to light with pistols, at ten paces, to -stand at that distance back to back, to wheel at the word, and to fire between the words, 44 fire, one, two, three, halt: Dr. Johnson had said all along that he would not fire and I am told, from excellent authority, that he did so because he had promised Mrs. Jones he would not. The story runs, that whilst the difficulty was in progress, in Hert ford, Mrs.

J. returned to Dr. J. a riding whip, and some other little matters that he had, with the knowledge of her husband, presented to her, accompanied with a note, saying she feared there would be a Tencounter between her husband and him, and begging him that he would not kill her husband. To this note Dr.

J. is said to have replied, saying, if a rencounter did take place, he should not fire. We omit the particulars of this duel, as they have already been published in our paper. The lady who has been the caue of this affair is said to be one of great beauty and of many accomplishments is the daughter of one of the wealthiest men in North Carolina, and the breath of suspicion has never reached her fame Her husband' believes her to be entirely inno cent, and it was for the 44 attempt, and not the deed," that he killed Dr. J.

A Brutal Outrage. An Irishman named John Carney was arrested on Thursday night, upon a charge of having committed an assault with a felonious intent upon a little girl named Eliza Kelly, only about 7 years of age. The assault was committed in presence of her little brother and sister, who gave the alarm. The accused was committed to prison till Tuesday next for examination. St.

Both pieoes are well cast. It is really a treat to be permitted to wit ness the representation of some of the sterling old comedies in something like a respectable manner. As we predicted, the above-named artistes are nightly growing in favor with the public, and the theatre is better filled on each succeeding night, Bigamy. Christian Nelson, charged with bigamy, was examined before Recorder Bald win yesterday morning, and after a protracted hearing, the Recorder ordered him to find bail for bis appearance at the Criminal Court Nothing else of any consequence transpired a Recorder Baldwin's office. The usual number of assault and batteries were disposed of, and cases of temporary elevation properly punished 'Almost an Affray.

A meeting took place in Chartrea street yesterday, between two per sons, which might have resulted in something serious had it not been for the presence of a third party. It appears that on Thursday Mr. Claude Zamory, of Chartres street, received a written challenge from a person named Auguste Rideau they having previously had a quar rel which he refused to accept. Yesterday about 12 o'clock, while Mr. Zamory was walk ing along Chartrea street, in company with Mr, F.

H. Petitpain, he felt some one tap him on shoulder, and on turning round he observed Kideau with his right hand in his coat pocket. Apprehending an attack, he drew a small dirk to defend himself, whereupon R. drew a. pistol from his pocket and was in the act of cocking it, when ne was seized by P.

and the pistol wrested from his grasp. He was immediately taken before Recorder Genoi.s and held to bail in the sum of $1000. for his appearance at the Criminal Court. Spalding1 Circu.

Valuable Paintings. We would refer the at tendon of the public to the sale of a lot of valu- able oil paintings, to take-place on the 5th ol March, at the ticket office of the St. Louia Ball Room, These paintings are just from Paris, and amongst them are some exquisitely beautiful productions.

The Swedish brig Juno was driven from hpr fastenings, and came in contact with; the schooner Ella.

Both were injured, although the damage is comparatively trifling. The French brig Jenne. Albert was lying at Bennett's Mill, alongside the Hancock. The latter was cut down to the water's edge, and the brig was leaking badly supposed 1 'a a a- sue wouia sinic. many sloops, schooners and other small craft were sunk, and the steamer Gov.

Dudley received considerable injury in her guards Some estimate of the amount of damage will probably be given in the papers of the next day. I I The steamboat Vanderbilt, from Wilmington to Charleston, was unable to land her mail for the latter city. She attempted to send it ashore, but the boat to which it was entrusted was capsized. The' gale which stopped the Vanderbilt prevented the 6tcamboat Gladiator from going North with the mail from the South. We presume that the transportation of the mail wilL.be prevented for a day or two.

Bold Robbery at Cincinnati. The Cincin nati Enquirer oi the 12th inst. gives the par tic u- ars of a bold robbery in that city on the day previous, at the banking house of the Ohio Life and Trust Company.

A man named Farris re ceived from Mr. S. Davis a check on that bank of three hundred dollars and upwards, in pay ment of some pork. Mr. Farris went to the bank, drew his money, and when coming out of the door some person brushed against him, snatched the! money, which was in his pocket-book; in the breast of his coat, ran along the piazza in frontentered the door of the Trust Department, passed through that, into the bank, and then out of the door into the street, but so rapidly that Mr.

who was following, could not overtake him. Mr. Farris says he was so astonished at the boldness of the thing that he never thought to give the alarm.
