Mr. C *teheanmogedtagn-up the I.ill
to repeal *6eandepent ttl Trei'sasury for the
purpose ofa-inug on the a-mendmenits.
This was out of order, by Mr. Clay's own
tale. and Mr. Calhoun - and other Demo
eratic Senators, wort ied him for about hIalf
an hour. when in mercy to him they for

Yr. Calhoun characterised tha itove

the President in his decisiona on a bill now.
under consideration; the Bauk bill, and
sboved that its further consideration be
postponed until Saturday next. This
was opposed by Mr. Clay, and sifter con
siderable debate was lost, ayes 26 noes 28.
The bill was then taken up, The aitend
ments concurred in, and the bill sen to the
President. The distribution bill was then
taken up, and a variety of atendinents
offered, which were discussed at consider
able length. Mr, Linn oflered an amend
ment proposing to appropriate the proceeds.
of the sales of the public lands to the naval
and military defences of the country, and
addressed the Senate in a very eloquent
manner in favor of the proposition.
Mr. King desired to submit his views on
the amendment, but would forbear if the
Senators on the other side were willing to
take the vote on the engrossment of the bill
without further debate. This was declin
ed by, the Whig Senators, and otn Mr.
King'motion the Senate went into Exec
ti0we Session. I learn that Col. Wool's
psiAnation as Brigadier General, to suc
eedGeneral Scott was sent in to lhe Sen
ate. This is another verification of the
saying familiar hereabouts, that one carm
paign in Washington is hetter than six in
the field. Col. Wool is considered a mere
carpet knight. Among many other meri
torious ollicers his seniors in rank, whom
be has superseded. was tite gallant veie
ran. Gen. Brady. who has participated in
nearly every action. in which our troops
have heen engaged since Vayne's victory
over the Indians.
The House were engneed all day in dis.
cassing the bankrupt, bill, and adiourued
without taking a vote.
The veto message will probably not bo
sent in until Fridny, though some expect
it to morrow. Rumor to day says the
Cabinet will resign. Congrees will prob
ably adjourn on Monday, the 231.

In tite Senate this morning, Mr. Cal
houn presented the proceedings of a larce
meeting of the Republicans of Norfolk
county. Virginia, in relation to the meas
ures of tite Extra Session. They are in
strong and decided !anguage. and the right
of repeal is asserted in the following:
"Resolved, That, like the Democracy
of the olden time. who armused the people
to a sense of their danger, hurled the mar
auders from power. repealed the Alien and
Sedition laws, and rescued the constitu
tion from desecration and outroge, we
pledge ourselves, should Congress pass
any law establishing a National Bank.
distributing the proceeds of the public lands
or assuming the Slate debts, never to relax
our exertions until these unconstitutional
and dangerous enactments shall he ex
punged from our startie books, and the
sanctity of our national compact be vindi
cated and maintained."
After the proceedings had been read,
Mr. Calhoun moved that they be grinted,
whichwas- areed to-dMr.EClay aeties
fttieMg conrinced of the
frttessness o his efforts to gag the free
men of the land. A motion of inquiry re
lative to some business cotntected with
the Post ottice department was alTered
which gave rise to an incidet debate,
in whtich much complaimtt was utttered by
various Senators of the irregularity attd
inefficiency of the opera:ious of thec de
part ment.
The Land bill was taken up aind an a
mendmenot olieredl, protposing to eqipaalize
the donations of lands to the new Sistes,
so as to brittg them all up to thes. amiount
received by Ohio.
This, after ant anitnated de.bate, wvas
lost-ayes 19, noes 25.
Several othser unsitmporthant amtendmtents
were sdTered, which occup~liedl the Sentte
until a lare htour. A ttotion wvas thent
madeto adjourn inver until 3londay, for
the avowed obje-ct of givinag ant opportutni

Mr. Berrien, whto has bsteen selectedl as
"my man Charles," thmese~ two days pa,,
(Mr. Preston and M1r. Mlaan;;um bintg evi
dendly distrusted and discnardedl ) siopposed(
the motion, and demanded the veas aw
cays, when it was withtdrawn i. Ths~ wa..
no doubt an elbullit iotn of M1r. Clay's sple.
to prevent Presidentt Tyler playing thte
"Ceasar with the Senate at his heels."
The President has, however, wisely de
termined not to leave the city int the pre
at1:endition of public aluirs.
In- the House, a motion was tma-.'e to
take the Bankrupt bill out of Comtttee,
at 2 o'clock to-day, which was adopted;
this was done,. with the expectation that
the veto message wnuld be received at
12 o'clock- It did ntot come bowever,
and at 1 o'clock a motiott was masde
to reconsider thte vote by which the bill
was ordered to be taken out ofCommnittee,
and it was carried-ayes 102, noe-s 98.
Mr. Wise dentounced this whtuilling in
strong and indignant language. lIe would
say to every unlorttunato man who was
looking, with a tearfl eve, toward that
House for hope. that. his hopes bad been
flattered only to be betrayed: hte wouild-get

intended to use this bill as so much politi

pass, on certain contingencies. It had been
calculated that the bankrupts were sufE

extraordinary nature, dat edIo do hii duty. We

Another week has passed without any per
ceptible change in our Market. Nothing of
consequence has been done in the Cotton Mar
ket. A few small lots have changed hands at
home, and a few loads have been received from
wagons. Operations have, however, been so
limited as to render it impossible to form any
correct idea of the state of the Market. We
are daily expectinig later intelligence froen for
eign markets by one of the Boston Steamers,
and the general impression is that it must be
more favourable.
In the other branches of t ade, we have noth
ing worth the attention nf our readers. For
Flour there is a steady demand. We notice
some sales of country Flour at 6 a $7.-Canal
7 50 a $9,50
Our Grocery SMarket still continues quiet, and
we note no change ita prices. Holder.. of
Coffee are firm, iu anticipation of the Tariff
Bill now before Congress. Many doubts ex
ist, however, as to its pasage and approval of
the Presidenet.
