Full Text

A correspondent thinks it rather extraordinary, that the charges brought against the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, by Mr. Giles, should have found their way into the Argus of yesterday; and the decision of Congress thereon, be so long before they could arrive when it is well known they both set out in company together from Philadelphia. Nor can the same correspondent account why a former string of Resolutions introduced by Mr. Giles, should appear in the Chronicle, and the Report of the Secretary of the Treasury, in consequence thereof, be excluded. It is believed, the public are not satisfied with this mode of doing business.
