 ilie, from a portrait by Sir Thomas Lawrence, and i- 

 «aiitiful picture. The same gentleman has alsopre-

rhe Debate yesterday set in up>on the principle of 

 bill for a revision of the Tariff of Duties on Im- 

 •ts; and the Debate is to be continued today.— 

 lelher the great struggle is now to be made which 

 ©decide in its result, the fate of the bill ; or whe- 

 rthe Debate will again break off iiilo skirmishes on 

 details, we cannot say. Our impression is, that the 

 ails of the measure are not such, at present, to salis- 

 ither its friends or its adversaries. The duty on mo- 

 es, lately inserted into the bill, it is said, will lose 

 >iBe friends ; but, if the final question shall ever be 

 ved at, we still think the bill will pass the House 

 eprcntatives. We wish we could see any prospect 

 being shortly disposed of, there being many 

 ters of much importance before the House of Repre- 

 atives, which arc overlaid by it. — ^a(. Intelligencer. 



The Tariff bill was again discussed, and Mr. Tod 

 moved to strike out the duties on Russia Duck, Ra- 

 ven's Duck, and Holland Duck, with a view to leave 

 this manufacture under the ad valorem duty, laid on 

 Duck in other parts of the bill, so that striking out 

 would raise the duty five per cent. Mr. Clay support- 

 ed and Mr. Crowninshield opposed Mr. Tod's motion 

 whfch was at length carried. Ayes 93, Nays 77. 



On motion of Mr. Crowninshield, a duty often cents

 vision.
