Libertinism a Crime,Mr. Allen, from the Committee ou the Judi.

citvy, has reported to the Assembly of this Statea bill to punish Adukory and Seduction as felo¬nious offences against the State.as deadlycrimes against the peace, order and happiness ofthe community. The bill, we hear, is accompa¬nied by a long and able Report, fully vindicatingthe expediency and necessity of such enactment,of which the House has ordered the printing often time-i the usual number..-So far, well; butthe Legislature has gone as far as this severaltimes before. Public Opinion is ripe now, as itprobably has not been hitherto, for the enactmentof such laws us the Committee hero propose, andwe trust the session will not be suffered to glideaway in their absence. We venture to assure

Mr. Allen that the People will look to him to

press the matter he has reported as the most im--portant measuro of the Session, and that, shouldhe fail to do so, promptly and steadily, there are

many thousands who will regret his course, andwill not stop at regretting it. We do hope hewill see the propriety of energetic action in thepremises, and that the Committee and the Housewill second his exertions. All we ask is a re¬

cord of the Yeas and Nays on this measure ; andif it is not carried this Session we are confidentit will be at the next.The following arc the proceedings in the As¬

sembly on the introduction of this bill, as report¬ed in the Argus:Mr. Allen (from the Judieiary Committee, to

'which were referred ihn numerous" petitions for thepunishment of seduction and adulter«. ) reported abill to Prevent Licentiousness.The bill was accompanied bv a report in writing.the printing of üve times the usual number of which

were moved by Mr. Humürd. The bill is substan¬tially the bill ol lust year, und inflicting penalties offine and imprisonment for the offences» named in thepetitions.The report was read, whenMr. Palmer moved the printine: of ten times the

usual number of the report.saying that it wat* a

document that would not perhaps find its way gener¬ally into the newspapers of the day ; and it waavery desirable that it should have a general circula¬tion.Mr. Huntington accorded in opinion with the

gentleman lust up, that the communitv would beeminently beaefuted by a general circulation of thisdocument; and that it it was to have such circula¬tion, it must be mainly through the omcial publica¬tions ordered by the House. "There was a morbidseusibility on the part of the community.-a sort ol*sham modesty.that operated so far upon the pressas to keep every thing of tins sort out of the papers.There was perhaps a deeper cause for this, whichhe need not remark upon. It was enough to knowthat the document would not and its way into thepapers, to make an exception to its general*rule, andpnnt a larger number than usual in this ease! Heseconded the motion for ten times.

.Mr. Hl'LBCRD assented to that modification of hismotion, andTen times the usual number were ordered.

Sy Boston is full of life and business. Housesare going up rapidly, especially in the neighborhoodof the Worcester Depot and th*a noble United StatesHotel, which were but recently in the Southernsuburb of the town, but are now in the heart of bu¬siness, the centre of a growing wilderness of brickand mortar. We expect to see the Exchange andPost Office located in that vicinitv vet, if laudenough can be found or made for th«m."Ohio..-The Senate of Ohio have refused to pass

Dear Sir.I am en route for Dublin, where

I expect to remain during the State Trials, pro¬

vided, that, they do not, as is anticipated bysome, continue to the 4* Crack of Doom." TheGovernment has already taken a step which iscalculated to cause a deep feeling of exasperationamongst all Repealers, and to produce, instanta¬

neously, a sympathy in the bosoms of liberal

Englishmen, for O'Conncll and his co-patriots.Not a single Roman Catholic has been permittedto remain on the panel. Here then, we see the

strong, ruthless and unprincipled hand of theGovernment, displayed at once.a hand red withthe gore of ages, and perhaps destined to receivea still bloodier hue before many months. That a

general Revolution will convulse Ireland in theevent of O'Conncll's imprisonment, I do not anti¬

cipate ; but that erneutes may"occur is highly pro¬bable. How unequal is British Rule in its action

upon different persons and things ! Right in theheart of England have I beheld the leaders of a

league holding large meetings.haranguing tre¬

mendous-, masses.and receiving money fromthem for the purpose of obtaining the abolition ofa law which is oppressive upon the middle andlower classes. The Corn Law League lifts itsterrible mace.the shadow is already fallingupon the dignitaries of Downing street.yet, no

bayoneta glitter around the meetings.none oftheir leaders are indicted.Cobden, Bright &Co.traverse and agitate the fast anchored Isle fromcentre to circumference.Oh, no '. they are Eng¬lishmen. But in Ireland, the holding of largemeetings.the harangues of leaders and the col¬lection of money for the purpose of gaining thepeaceable abolition of a law.ah, this is all sedi¬tion.this is intimidation of the Government.and the leaders are indicted, seize«d and tried !This is glorious British Justice ! The Repealbusiness docs not cause as much sensation inEngland as one on your side of the water wouldprobably suppose. The higher classes of course

care nothing about it, so long as they can enjoytheir monopolies undisturbed, they care but littleabout union or disunion. The middle class arc

looking after their pounds, shillings and pence,and tiie lower classes who must sweat and bleedfor their masters, can only think of their own ne¬

cessities and wrongs. I do not mean to say, thatIrish affairs are not a topic of discourse, butmerelv that they arc viewed with but little realsolicitation.That portion of the President's message which

relates to Texas, commands the most attentionfrom the English Press and public. In a CottonCircular just issued, the idea is advanced thatEngland should induce Texas to abolish slaverywhen the " One Star" would be swept to some

purpose by the Downing street telescope. Insuch case, says the Circular, Great Britain wouldbe independent ofthe slave Cotton growing states.

That England will intrigue for such a consum¬

mation is probable.Temperance has made some progress and af¬

fected some good here, but the English are stilldreadfully addicted to the demons of the grapeand still. At no period were the Americans such

huge drinkers as these people of England. Hun¬dreds of thousands sit night after night in TapRooms, discussing the merits of Brandy, Ale andTobacco. Owing to the scientific mode of swal¬lowing liquor and their phlegmatic temperaments,the English rarely exhibit the excitiment of intox¬ication. They swill, and swill, and swill, addingquietly to their fat and bestiality.

brilliant and cloudless : the Sound was frozen froishore to shore, the undisturbed ice perhaps siinches thick; that where the boats had brokethrough on previous days was about two inches. Herat 7 yesterday morning, as the New-Haven enicre

President Houston has vetoed a joint resolutionwhich passed the Congress, requiring the Presidentand Heads of Departments to remove to Austin, the

capital, as the Senate and Representatives declare,of the Republic. Contradictory reports prevail withregard to the result of the mission appointed on the

part of Texas to treat with Gen. Woll and otherMexicans.The accounts received by letters from Vera Cruz,

of the military and naval'preparations making at

that place, for some unknown purpose, were thoughtof sufficient importance to be made the basis of a

island, by Mexico, as hardly probable, not to disre¬gard entirely the warnings which have been sent

In the information cnut.-.ined in the following paragraphfrom tiie -,-inie fwper, we have tn-»re faith:" Much *::xie:v has b-n-ii manifested to incertain the views

of the i'resiiiei.-t .'tüd ol the members of Congress, relative ro

th» qn«stion of annexation. We mentioned some weeks since

that »ve were confident that the President was --eretly. it not

In the nwn time, Mr. Raymond arrived liere.rereived in¬

Nothing has yet been done on hiscase, if Congress take upon itself to organize intoa court martial upon his case, it will necessarily bekept here some weeks longer than ir otherwisewould hnve been.

The amountof their wages had been placed in the hands of theofficers, to he paid over to the soldiers, but the ofti-c«rs had refused to pay it over.

Adjourned to Monday.In the Hülse, the Report of the Committee on

Elections coming up, Mr. Thompson of Miss.,took the .loor, and s.-id that the question beforethe House was one questioning lus right to aseaton the fioor, a doubt to which he never enter,tained ; but, as it was a question of vast impor¬tance, and one which this House has the judicialpower to decide, and from whosejudgement thereis no appeal, it should be met in a spirit of fair¬ness. He contended thai the Constitution gavehim a ri_;ht there ami that the précèdent wincha decision in favor of the law districting tin-States would make, would be a dangerous one.

Mr. Stephens believed the law districting theStates was constitutional, and that tac Staleswere bound to obey that law. This was his in¬dividual opinion ; but the question was now be¬fore the tribunal to which the Constitution hassubmitted this subject, and by whose judgementhe was willing to abide.

Messrs. Brow», Payne, Newton, and Hint.took part in the discussion.

Mr. SflCES, from the Committee on Euro-ledbills, reported that the President had signed andapproved the bill making certain transfers ofNaval appropriations.The Speaker presented several Executive

CONGE ESSIUXAÊ PRO CEEVINGS.BY THE REPORTER OF THE NEW-YORK TRi_f;**T.

Washing row, Satui-Jsy, Feb. 10.The Senate was not in session to-day.In the House, the question of privilege (i. e. of

the validity of ihe chums to scats of the Gene.ral Ticket members,] was discussed doling theentire day and until adjournment at a late hour,by Messrs. Nonius of N. H. Cuappell of Gtand Catlin, in opposition to the law and in favorof the claims of these members to their scats:and by Mr. Summers on the opposite side, and byother gentlemen, the arguments mainly being buta repetition of those formerly advanced, and thedebate partaking-of but little interest. .

One of its features eliciting momentary attcn*tion, as being so decided a rarity in these days,was a studied (for the speech was read) and warmeulogy by Mr. Catees of Mr. Tyler's administra,tion, with particular reference to the several vc.toes. Mr. C. however protested against beingconsidered an apologist or eulogist ; some of hisacts he could not approve. Still the name ofJohn Tyler, he suid, would be cherished as thatof an enlightened statesman and devoted patriotlong after the names of his caluminiators shouldbe buried in oblivion.

Mr. Summers made an eloquent and ablespeech in opposition to the claims of the membersin question.

Mr. Chappell, instead of joining with hisbrother Whig from Ga. (Mr. Stephens,) in thenoble stand so gallantly taken by him in defenceof the law, and against his own temporary inter,est, was found pettifogging in the usual Locostyle against the validity of the act.The majority have determined in caucus upon

closing the debate on Tuesday.The argument before the Supreme Court on the

Gerard Will case has been continued to-day byMr. Wehster on the part of the heirs, and is saidto be one of his great efforts. The courtroomwas filled to overflowing an hour or two beforethe opening of the Court, and continued bo dur»ing the dity.a goodly portion of the assemblyb *ing composed of ladies, and many being unableto gain admittance. Mr. W. will occupy Mondaywith the c »ntinuation of his argument. Abode.
