We were first to settle the prin- j >.e of cession. Torre was r.o reason to j drus' tiic fidelity of the Suites to such j ligations as they might assume, in this i 'iiiigernent. We have extinguished the Indian title ( 320 millions of acres of land, of which ly Si millions had been solo, and thirty e millions of that had been sold in i two or three years of speculation.? le best lands had been culled over again d again, hv the speculators and setti^r.-, tl scarcely a section was left the present >rth of which exceeded the minimum cc. Indeed, very little of it was worth it price. We were too apt to confound ) future value of the land with its pres. f value. Mr. C. entered into a calculation of ; present value of the lands, and, by n Utiblc process,made it out to!)."; o.dy /y-s.u' nulhoris of uoih.rs. Ti.e ijiier. if tills sum, it* it shosdu he tuio un l a h;iij Uions, would exceed the average en.iumcomt. from the lands.

He would accept the Sena-! a tors' proposition as a modification of his j I hill. Mr. Linn said, he would offer if, if the n bill should be adopted. Mr. Crittenden spoke in reply to Mr. j Calhoun, and partially also to *he remarks ' f of Mr. Benton yesterday. Mr. C. con- ^ tended that the proceeds of I he public j, lands belonged of right to the States in | j iti common, and the> ouglit to have them, j _ Were there not luxuries enough that ; might be taxed, which would lie collected i from the pockets of the rtch,?wines, silk, j Sec. He hoped the proceedsol the public l o lands would be taken for the States,? {i such a step would help to bring hack the j ^ government to a proper and just economy. 1 H More than thirty millions had been ex-' jviidcd annually during the administra-1 ? lion of Mr. Van Burcn. The item of the i11 public lands was only a feeder to the ex- 1 c travagance of his administration. j a Mr. C. went on to reply to the argu- j merits of Mr. Callicun, denouncing them J ( as wild visionary, and unstatesma.iiike. !

Mr. Crittenden repelled this insinuation I'' with a fil l share of pleasantry, not un- ( mixed with sarcasms ofa keen and biting I ] kind. He said the simpathtc* of crown, r cd heads were strong, and that if any I' such influence had been used, it was |' much more likely to have been in favor ol 1 King Martin than i.i favor of an humble ' log cabin candidate. Where did such | influence prevail? There was not a State of the Union but was represented here? j \ let them answer! Was the calumny to j apply to the who'e of the American Pco- j1 ; ie, that a President was made by a for- j oigri power through that meanest of all j injivenres, money! He would answer for the hardy yeomanry of his own Slate, that not a single vote was polled under j such degrading influence. He could tell j( the gentleman it was not that which over- i?

I iK.fieve this is the most remarkable ase that has ever occurred of the orosccuion of an execulive officer, in his private opacity, for an official act. Mr. Jefferson, otter be left office, was ued by Mr. Livingston, for damages for jecting him from possession of thebut'urc, ! New-Orleans, but the case was decided avor of Mr. Jefferson. I understand that Mr. Kendall will novo for a new trial, and will ultimately ippcal to the Supreme Court of the Unied States.

The public lands was again the subject >f discussion in the Senate,.to-day. The ^ nterestofihe debate does not appear to lag. Mr. Clay is evidently ready to peak upon it, and perhaps Mr. Webster. For twenty years, this subject has engaged much of the attention of Congress md it will be the engrossing topic of dis:ussion and agita ion, for some years to owe, and, indeed, until it shall be finally etilcd. ? ? t a 1 j!, Mr. Savior made a rem Arnansas wsrourse, to-day.

As to the pre-emption laws, he thought he impedance of them was^reatly over ptrd. Practically, they were of little ivail. Their professed o!)jcct was to present the injustice of turning a settler out >f his homo, and giving it, with his improvements, to *.hj speculator. But this was a ease that never happened. He had never known an instance of it. The or. cupants always sent an agent to the sale,, ind their land was bought without difficulty for their use. No one ever attempted to take their land from them by over>idiog them; for it would be as much as iny one's life was worth, to do it.
