A conversational debate endued as to he immediate consideration of tlio resoluion, between Messrs. Cuncan and Middle- j on, in the course of which Mr. D.

THE JEWISH PASSOVERThe Christian public will douhtle$9 nolice that the Jews have commenced tho ob-scrvance of one of their fposV interesting and venerated religious rites. As every event or incident connected with the history n\ul religion of the Jews is, more or less, a matter of concern to intelligent and tolerant minds, we take occasion to refer to the ceremonies al present prpgrcssiug amo^g thea people. The Jewish Passover commenced last night, the 25th inst. At uqou on yesterday all leavened food was removed from tho bouses of Israelites, and the use of such food,lor the succeeding eight days, is strictly prohibited. The Passover commcmo- ( rates the exodus of the Jewish nation from j the land of Egypt and its deliverance from i a bondage of exceeding four hundred years. 'iilic head of each family conducts the prayers and ceremonies of the first two. nights, (one only, we believe, i& celebrated by the 1'otugucse Jews,) which are highly interesting, and consists of prayers, chaunts and a full narration of the bondage of their forefathers, their deliverance aad exodus from Egypt. Upon the tablo (which iis spread with great luxury} is placed a roasted blade bop.e of a lamb, to represeni the Paschal Lamb, a dish of bitter herbs, and a thick paste made of almonds and figs?the former to remind tncm ot the bitter sufferings, and (lie latter, the straw and mortar which their ancestors used in making bricks for ther exacting task masters. The unleavened bread is to commemorate the hasty exodus of their forefathers, agreeably to the twelfth chapter and thirty ninth verse of Exodus ; 'And they baked unleavened cakes of the dough wliieh they brought forth out of Egypt, for it /as not leavened ; because they were ihrust out of ^gypt, and could not tarry, neither lwd tbey prepared for themselves any victuals.' The Passover is observed by all Israelites wheresoever tbey may be. It meters not how all other festivals or fasts (with the exception of the Day of Atonement) may be indifferently kept, or wholly neglected. this holidHV does not nnas iinobs^p f w veil, or uncommemorated. It is ono of tbe strongest and most enduring landmarks in the religious observances of that people, and a liok which binds the most indifferent to those great events which they regard as having the impreps of their Creator. It not only calls up the shadows of conturies to that remote period when "there arose a new King over Egypt that knew not Joseph,' but each ceremony, every prayer, calls forth incidents which moUten the shrivelled cheek and thrills the aged heart, seared bv time, bv change, nnri bv snrrmv : tb? mystic shadows of childhood hover around the aged head of the household, self-same prayers, cbaunts and ceremonies over which bis father had presided many years since?sthe self-same lessons which his father had taught him, as a child, on this anniversary?have devolved on him ; and be with trembling voice and moistened eye inculcates to his child or Children, to bo by them, in years to corpe, given as an heirloom to their progeny. Such are the feelings which every Jewish fathtir possesses when celebrating the Passover. Qence its importance to, and the enduring impression it makes on, the heart of tbo young. We bare thus briefly referred to the observances of the Jewish Passover, in order a_ ii ? t. " ? w luiurui muse w?a are not aware 01 ino origin of those ceremonies, as well as to record recurring and passing events and their attending incidents.?Augusta Consiitutionulitt. Arkansas.?We have to-day the gratifying inte lligence from Arkansas that the Convention has passed a conditional ordinance of secession, to be submitted to a rote of the people for ratification or rejection. I have little doubt as to what the course of the State will be. The strong vote for calling a Convention, near 12,000 majority, shows the strenghtb of the secesson feeling. The action of Arkansas, it will be observed, accords with previous state ments made by mo in the columns of the Examiner at the vory time the submission press were confidently and impudently predicting lb? Stale Ooovention would not pass a Recession ordinance. Pad (be peopk of Arl^apsgs foreseen, at the time of their election, the failure of all attempts to secure valid constitutional goarafttftUf, &r effort to cheat them by the trickery of the Peaoe Copgj-ess project, they would have elected a Pftpvebtion* fpjf straigV.t secession.?

KATE'S EXPERIMENT. BY D. ELLIOT. 'Such hnir! such eyes! such.i mouth,? nnd the voico?by Jove! Its like the chiming of silver bells, only a 'housand times sweeter and more heavenly. I'd givo 'the half of my kingdom' if you could see her, Ned ; that is, if I was sure she couldn't fall in love with you and the speaker tilted himself back on his chair, crossed his patent leathers, one over the other, on tho balustrade before him, passed his small white hand through his chestnut curls,, perhaps with a thought that his own handsome face might not prove altogether obnoxious to tho little beauty. 'Pebaw, Charlie,' said Ned, knocking tho ashes from the end of his cigar, 'I'll bet a Y Bho couldn't 'liold a candle' to Minnie Franklin ; she's my beau ideal of a sweet, bewitching little woman ; but what's this paragon's name ? Serusba or Polly, I'lJi be bound but Charlie was obnoxious to Ned's presence, for, having suddenly lowered bis feet, be was loaning over the balustrade gazing eagerly up the sidevtalk.? 'What's to pay; nro you moonstruck?' said Ned, rather vexed that he ahould have spent his precious breath for nothing. 'That's she. Talk of angels and you'll see their wings,' cried Charlie, excitedly. Ned placed his shining beaver, which bad been tipped back from his forehead, on bis Lead, raised his eye-glass elegantly between his delicate thumb and fore finger, for the purpose of taking a minute survey of this new star in tho fashionable world. His face suddenly changed from its expression of genteel indifference to one of the most intense excitement. What could it mean ! to be sure, there was a perfect little fairy, in curls, silks and laces; one that ought to set any man raving ; but, Ned, our Adamant lady-killer?'twas passing strange what had wrought this sudden and wonderous change. ^Ie stood gaaing down the sidewalk some moments after the last trailing fold of azure silk had disappeared, and the clatter of little heefs on the flag stones had died away, and was only recalled to his senses by Charlie's emphatic slap on t^o shoulders with 4A gone goose, by Jove!' Suddenly recollecting a pressing engagement, Ned hurriedly took leave of his im suspecting iriena, neartwy glau to be alone with bis troubled thoughts, 'la it possible!' he mused, as bis agitated feeling3 hurried him up the street, totally oblivious of the smiles and tender glances directed toward him from pretty lips and handsome eyes. 4Is it possible ! my little Katie, my wildflower, my sweet, darling betrothed ! Yet it was she; I couldn't mistake that face among ten thousand j she here, a belle; but, worse than all, falling in love with some these fine city gents; he knew it must be so, for didn't Charlie say she was followed by an endle3s train of admirers the night previous at Madame P's ? and she thought that she might hare been there too, had be only conquer?d that detestable fit of ennui. Oh ! it was maddening?the thought of what be had lost, for be felt quite Bure, bad be been there, she would not dare brare bis displeasure by allowing attentions from other than himself, however much she might wish it. He little thought how Kate Chester had watched and yearned for his coming, al tbpugh hpr proud heart would not acknowledge it, for the reason tbat she bad beard of bis alarming flirtation- with the famed beauty, Miss Minnie Franl(Hn; and, for the purpose of paying him ofP, she had come to yi&it some fashionable Fifth ^veql^e relatives qf which Ned Harle bad never heard her speak, and therefore was ignoraqt of her connection with them. Perhaps Ned's conscience smote liim a i little for condemning Katie for what be bad been guilty; but it wasn't a paralM case, be reasoned ; as a matter of course be was expected to play the agreeable to the ladies, moving, as he did, in fashionable circles, j while she, a* be supposed, bad never even ; caught a glimpse of fashionable^life. ! It suddenly occurred to Ned's mind that there wai to be a soiree at Mrs. Lsngdon'? the coming evening; he wondered if she < would bo there; ho was quite sure he should i attend; and oh 1 bow impatienty be await- < pd tho shade* of night, for be now began - at a. 1 mi icci aura iuhi> jjcr icenngs lowaras Dim 1 were unchanged; apdt on tfte wfyojp, you* ' dered tfant be should bate been *o dlstur, bed, for it wee probable that aba bad come to York for tbe cxpresa pnrpote of be 1 ing near Lipp. | Ob, fpm? \ what, aq ipethwtitya fgp4 of conceit if tattooed up under your rest.?
