Yeas, 36 ; Nays, 9. ? . Resolved. That any attempt of Congress . ' to abolish slavery in any Territory .of the United States in which it exists, would create | serious alarm and just apprehensions in the | States sustaining that domestic institution; ! would be a violation ot good faith towards the inhabitants of any such territory who have been permitted to settle with and hold slaves, because the people of any such Ter ritory have not asked for the abolition of sla very therein, and' because, that when any such Territory shall be admitted into the Union as a State, the people thereof will be entitled ? to decide that question exclusively for them selves.? ^eas, 33 ; Nays, 9. j * The 6th resolution was laid on the table, on motion of Mr., Preston, who suggested that it brought up, in a disadvantageous shape, the question of the. annexation of Texas. In regard to this matter, we have constant ly expressed the opinion that the best, most dignified and becoming course for the South ern delegation at W ashington, is. to take no part in the abolition discusison. lit a ques tion over which Congress has no jurisdiction^ If the North will discuss, it-, v let them do -so, and come to their own conclusion. W e should have nothing to do' with . any", such debate. - We zfi -not the party to;offei> compromises, rfru.t: to^ cohsider whether, we will ourselves accept them. . - - \ The Comirwnteeffli. Bank, of Boston, has ; t^edv with: $37.0,000 of public .money in its possession- It was one of the favorite pets of Chelate Administration. ' In a discussion in^Jthe Senate, on a resolu tion of enquiry offered by Mr. Webster, -con nected with the failure of -this bank, the bad faith of the government towards its creditors, and the disregard of law on the part of its r officers, were strikingly- exposed. " Mr. Webster stated that he had received letters from- highly respectable sources, in forming him that a severe loss had fallen upon a large number. of industriou's'and worthy cit zens, by the behavior of the government offi cers?That recently when the pension money 'and fishing bounties became due and applica tion was made to the Collector and agent at Boston? he being the officer charged by the Government with the duty of paying this mo ney ? he paid the fishermen, not as the law di rects, in specie, or bills equivalent to specie* but in the bills of this now broken bank, or in checks- upon it, which checks, of course, it 'was known would not be paid in specie. Mr. W. had been given to understand that this officer refused to pay the bounty due in Trea sury notes, when asked to do so ; and that he refused also to pay the money in specie, al though requested; and , that, substantially and in-^effext, the parties entitled to payment : were put to the option of taking the paper of this bank, or of taking nothing at all ! Mr. \Vr. held mhis hand a letter from one of the most considerable fishing towus in the State,- namely, Marblehead, and he was t herer by informed that, very shortly before this bank failed, that is, within a week or two, or some such period, the money due from i Government to these fishermen had been paid I in the manner described, a large amount of it tentirely in the bills and notes of this bank; } report said, the whole amounting to fifty or a hundred thousand dollars, and paid out when the bank was ou the eve of a total crash, and within a few days of its failure ! ? Well, sir, (continued Mr. W.) when th -money in these large quantities had been pai out, the bank. failed^ and all that these potj I fishermen had received in payment from tb t United States is now dead on their hands. ] The law expressly says that " hereafter/ J bank notes of less denomination than twer | dollars, shall be offered inpayment in any c* i whatsoever in which money is to be paid^ | the United States or the Post Office Dei*" I ment; nor shall any bank note ofanydeJ11" | ination be so offered, unless the same sh'^e | payable, and paid on demand, in goldocver ; coin, at the place where offered, and c'cr~ | tible into gold or silver upon the spot' j will of the holder, and without delay *oss : to him.-" j ? Mr. W. thought it possible that it i^t be ; said, in excuse of this transaction, t) these j poor fishermen aad pensioners tookj3.8 now worthless money voluntarily, or at Sir ?wo i option. But whether the individu/ho *s t0 ! be paid may be made willing to such j irredeemable paper or not, the \js direct and peremptory, and prohibits the^c.e^rom I offering it. The consent of ^dividual, ! therefore, to take it, especially he can ! get nothing else, will not justify*1 violation : in any quarter. Bnt what coi^1 can *hat ! be esteemed, what voluntary t-nS *s there ; in such cases, whereia man, bec?e he cannot ! get all that is due to him, is coie^ecj to take j part, rather than have none? ' hat is there j voluntary about it? This [joercion, and : not consent. j They came up for the boty which the f Government had given the^ a sort ?f I equivalent for their heavy fa;11 sa|t- They | go to the collector and a^k,; their bounty | in gold and silver; but tjic cannpt get it, I and he tells them they hills of the J Commonwealth Bank, orfhing. Mr. W. I argued that, if such wer^e state of things now, under the prohibit-' ^;nv* ** wou^ be just so under the propos- h-Treasury sys tem, in spite of any law tfm^ht be enacted. | They would take depr^ed 1110 ney because I they" could get nolhiufse' an(] that would be caHed voluntary, f he could not see in what sense of law o^raIs il cou!ci be 50 called. ' ? . One of the letters to Mr. Webster, from one of the towns, i? as follows. " Sir : You will, I am satisfied, excuse the liberty I take in addressing you these few lines, the subject being of the utmo.st importance to my fellow-townsmen. The Government have lately paid to the fishermen of this town their bounty money, amounting t6 something Jiko $20,000. Something like $10,000 of this amount was paid mCommonwelth Bank bills, the remaining $10,000 in bills of other baius. Now, sir, just look at the distress that is liktl y to come upon this poor town by this speci; paying Government of ours. The Common wealth Bank has stopped, and S100 would net buy a loaf of bread. The Collector of Bo> ton was solicited by a number of gentlemei of this town for specie, or even Trcasur; notes. No ; he'd pay in no other way but b; a check on the Commonwealth Bank. This sir, is a hard case for the poor fishermen u this town, and I am satisfied, you sir, will d< what lies in your power (if any thing can be done) for their relief. The poor widow an< Revolutionary soldier come in also for then part in the distress of the town;. many oi them who have received pensions have beer paid in Commonwelth Bank bills, and, hav ing full reliance upon the Government, have kept the money they had paid them by tin Government, believing that the Government would not pay them in bad money. *aL am, dear sir, your obedient servant." To the Hon. Intendant and Wardens of Co ' lumbia. _ I "would respectfully call your attention to the ill condition of the beautiful street lead ing east from Clark's Hotel. Especially at the cross street in the immediate neighbor hood of the Intendant's dwelling, it is so bad as to be a grievance to all passers. A small expense would remedy the evil. A CITIZEN.

Mr. Lea then offered the following resolu'ion ; Resolved, That on account of the awful and myste rious visitation of Divine Providence, by which the Honorable Dunklin Sullivan, a member of the House of Representatives, from the county of Perry, has been suddenly removed from the councils of his country ? the Senate (so soon as the House of Rep resentatives intimates its concurrence,) will instantly adjourn until to-morrow morning 10 o'clock. Which, on motion of Mr. Crabb, was unanimously adopted ; and that the Senate adjourn to attend the funeral of the deceased. After the Senate adjourned, the members appoint ed a committee of Messrs.

GKNTLEMEN--Your unexpected request of a copy of my remarks in the Senate Chamber this morning, will not be forgotten. I was much fatigued by other engagements, and had sat up with the deceased all night ? made remarks without examination or reflec tion, andean now only give their substance: sucKas they are, (well or badly s.iid) on account of the merit of the deceased, (and he had merits he was not al ways making the beat of before the public)? you ore welcome to their publication. Uelievo me, gentle men, with the utmost thankfulness, Yours very, &c. IJEXliY C. LEA. Hon. JESSE BEEXE, ) Hon. JAMES I1ILL, > Committee: Hon GEO. W CRAB B, ) Mr. President It iswih feelings of the deep est solemnity and regret, tliat I this morning a^k the indulgence of the Senate, while I publicly announce the death of my worthy colleaauo in the other branch of the Legislature. The Honorable Dunk lin Sullivan no longer lives Sir, this is to us a seri ousand truly solemn occurrence. And while I know, gentlemen thut you will sympathise with us, allow me to narrate a few of the prominent features of Ins life, that you may know that your sympathies are well founded. A native, if I mistake not, of Crconville or some immediately adjacent district of South Carolina ; he removed at an early age to the State of Tennessee, where he acquired a valuable Academical education, and perhaps made some progress in the study of the law. In the year 1819 (the year our Stato was ad mitted into the Union) he removed and settled in the J town of Cahawba, Dallas county, (where you Mr. ; President, no doubt passed many pleasant moments ; in his company.) lie there engaged in tho practice of the law, and in the year 1822, removed to the county of Perry. ? In that county be prosecuted his profession success fully and during several years represented the coun irty, first in the House of Representatives and after wards in the Senate. In 1831, as well as I remember, 'jhe was elected by the Legisla'ure, Judge of the county Court of Perry. In this office more than all others, his services were most signally valuable to the people; and many a widow and orphan arc en joying, perhaps without being aware of it, the pecu liar benefit of his services. Were estates involved !in conflicting claims and intrinsic controversies ? by 'his profound knowledge of the law, his perfect im partiality, his accurate judgment, his indefatigable (industry, confusion was removed and the limit of every claim distinctly marked ; and public justice aijd public satisfaction equally dispensed. To all this, gentlemen, the deceased added a gooJness of heart -pure and^disinterested. Then was he not a valuable, >a noble citizen ? At the lost winter session of the (Legislature he resigned his office as Judge of the jcountyCourt and resolved to retire, and .n his un [pretending way, live on his farm two miles north of '?Marion. I 1 should injustice to his memory, remark thaf du ring the time he held the office last spoken of espe cially, ho kept himself aloof from the warm and often bitter conflict of parties. ' Whatever, may have |j)een his feelings and opinions (and it is known tha^his knowledge of the policy of his country was klways extensive and profound) he seldom erpressed them. Resolved to avoid even the appearance of partiality, a nth cautiousfy fdaftearing to give the jtveight* of his influence to "either party, lie was equally beloved by both . i Notwithstanding his determination to live in quiet knd retirement, the people of Perry, well aware of [his "stern honesty, and of the value of his services whenever he had been tried, previous to the last August elections, on^e more called him out as a can didate. TJtie consequence was, that but few, if any, man, ever came to this Legislature, by a more cheer* fuland Unanimous suffrage. -And rely Upon it, gentlemen, he was an able mem-' ber, an impartial and a good man. Though his voice, might not have been often heard mingled in debate bis suggestions and counsel would, (I dare say it) have been as practicable and valuable as those of any member of the.house of which lie was a member. But that voice is hushed forever ! By a sudden and rcyslcriousvisitation of divine Providence, be is gone from the councils of his country. It was gratifying' to us that some of the most respectable citizens of "Perry, that one gentleman, (Mr. Norris of Mobile,) who had known him ever since he became a citizen of the State, were with him to the last moments. They heard his last last unavailing effort for one more clay-cold respiration. " One week ago he firmly walked down the steps of this Capitol in the full vigour of health and manhood.. Haying got slightly wet in passing to and from the. House in the early part of last week, he complained of a slight cold, it increased gradually and soon be? came inflamatory and terminated in a congestion about the heart as well as the brain ; his friends ever, had not become much alarmed until about three or four days since, every effort was then made to' con vey the earliest possible information to his" family (sixty miles distant) but it has turned out to have been too late. My feelings, gentlemen, have induced me, I fear, to be too minnte, but I believe you wanted to know something of the life of a deceased fellow member, and will only add, that I feel too much depres. sed to do his memory justice, for last night was a sleep less and awfully solemn night to his friends that were present. Can it be possible, we often ask ourselves, that his family cannot arrive in lime to enjoy the cold dreadful consolation not of seeing him die, but to see him once more before lie is forever gone to the dreary silent tomb. Often did we look out that we might hear some sound which would indicate their approach, but the same Providence that had placed I I in the heavens the pale moon, [whose cheerless rays I fell in the early part of ihe night in such lamentable i sublimity, into the room where he lay) had decreed otherwise. Within two minutes of two o'clock last night, he raised his hands as if in prayer to heaven and "passed through the dark valley of the shadow of death." Is it possible that Dunklin Sullivan is no more ? To a wife and six little orphans the loss is irreparable. By the county of Perry it will be most serionsly felt, and the State has never been deprived of a more worthy citizen in his sphere. I feel thankful, Mr, President, to the Senate for its attentive indulgence. COLUMBIA, January 27, 1833.
