1IOI gE OP REPRESENTATIVES.
Monday, Feb. 6. <
Mr. Adams stated that he held in his hand ^
a paper purporting to be a petition from slaves,
K and asked the Sneaker if it came within the
? order of the House on the subject of petitions
and papers relating to slavery. This gave
nse to a protracted discussion and most extTa- 1
ordinary excitement. Many cried out audi- (
bly "expel him," (Mr. A.) "expel him.*' Mr.
Thomson moved a resolution to call Mr. A. to J
the bar of the House to be censured by the
Speaker. Mr. Haynes moved as a substitute, j
% resolution simply expressive of censure, and
Mr. I/Cwis moved as a substitute, a resolution
to call Mr. A. to the bar to be censured for
-committing "an outrage on the rights and priv- '
ileges of a large portion of this union," for "a i
great contempt on the dignity- of the House,
and for fdirectly inviting the slaves to *.?arection
by extending to them a privilege belonging
only to freemen. Mr. Adams said '
that he did not presentjthe petition, he only
asked the Speaker if such a paper was included
in the former order of the House. The j
discussion was continued till the hour of adjournment.
The petition was beyond doubt a hoax. It
is supposed to have been prepared by some
young men in Washington To ridicule Mr. A.
for the course taken by him on this subject. It
prays fur his expulsion from the House.
While the discussion on this subject was
pending, Mr. l*atton moved to rec<msider a
previous vote of the House to lay on the table
a petition presented by Mr. Adams purporting
to be from iadies of Fredericksburg in Virginia,
against the slave trade in the District of Columbia,
for the purpose of returning it to Mr.
Adaras. lie stated that he examined the pe- ,
tition, and there was no name of any lady in '
Fredericksburg to it, for he knew them all.
The only person known by him of those whose
nvhose names are on the paper was a mulatto
of infamous character, and he supposed the
others were no better. The motion to reconsider
prevailed, and the disunion was continued.
Feb. 7. The same subject continued, without
any decision.
Feb. 8. The votes for President and Vice
President were counted, when it appeared that
M. Van Borenhad 167, 1). Webster 13, W. !
H. Harrison 73, H|L White26 & M. P j.Man- j
gum 11. Forthe Vice Pnesideocv It. M, John- I
sen received 144, J. Tyler 47, W. Smith 23.
Feb. 9. The resolutions iu relation to Mr. 1
Adams were taken up, when Mr. Patton ino- I
ved and Mr. Thomson accepted the following
substitute.
Resolved, That any member who shall hereafter
present to the House any petition from
the slaves of this Union, oughMo be considered
as regardless of the feelings of the House,
the rights of the Southern States, aae^unlriendJy
to the Union.
Resolved, That the Hon. Jolm Q. Adams
having solemnly disclaimed ail design of doing
any thing disrespectful to the House in the in*
puiry he made of the Speaker a? to the petitlnn
nnrnnrtimr to be from slave*. and having
(? r~-?o - w
avowed his intention not to offer to present the
petition if the House was of opinion that it
ought not to he presented; therefore ail further j
proceedings in regard to his conduct do now
cense.
Mr. Adams addressed the I louse m defence. ,
The duiato *??< .Vu terminated by the prem
nous question, and the question on both reso- 1
lutions decided in the negative. On the first ,
92 tc 105; on the second 31 to 137. i
Mr. Wise from the committee on his resolution
of inquiry into the executiveadrainistrat ion 1
made a report that R. M. Whitney had been ]
summoned to appear before the committee as <
a witness and refused. I
Feb. 10. On motion of Mr. Lincoln a resolution
was adopted 100 to 85, requiring the 1
sergeant at arms to arrest R. M. Whitney and <
bring him to the bar, to answer for an alleged <
contempt in refusing to appear before a com- ,
mittee of the House, and that he be allowed
counsel.
Mr. Lane moved to reconsider the vote by '
which the first resolution in relation to the 1
case of Mr. Adams was rejected yesterday. \
Pnatnoned.
PETI?;ONS PROM SLAVES.
Feb. 11. Air. Taylor of N. V. asked the
unanimous consent of the House to offer a
preamble stating that the first resolution adopted
in the ease of Mr. Adains might be construed
into an expression of opinion in relation
to the right of slaves to petition Congrea^
and a resoiution declaring that they do
not possess this right. Objection being made,
Mr. Carabreleng moved to suspend the rule.
After some desultory debate, Mr. Taylor moved
to suspend the rule for the purpose of taking ;
up the motion made by Mr. Lane yesterday. .
Carried 159 to 45. j
Mr. Taylor moved as a substitute for the ;
original resolutions formerly adopted, and now '
again under consideration, a preamble recit- J 1
ing Mr. Adams' inquiry of the Speaker, with j
a resolution, declaring that slaves have not the (
right of petition. Mr. Ingersol moved a substitute.
declaring that the House could not
receive tlic petition, without disregarding its j
own dignity, the rights of a large class of citi-j
zens, South and West, and the constitution i *
of the U. States. (
Mr. Adams moved an amendment repeat- \
ing the order of the House to which his
inquiry related, and declaring "that the said .
paper* (the slave petition) "is not within 1
the said order of the House." This with 1
jotber motions were shut out by the previous s
question ; after which the following preamble
.and resolutions were adopted.
i An inquiry having been made by an honor- c
able gentlemaa from Massachusetts whether ?
a paper which he held in his band, purporting i
to be a petition from certain slaves, and do- . \
daring themselves to be Slaves, cime within j .
liie order of the House of the 13th of January,j
.and the said paper not having been received j;
v- '?><-? ] <? stated :n :i case ?o *>
extraordinary and novel, he would take the | i
advice and counsel of the House. | c
Resolved, That this House cannot receive \ j.
said petition without disregarding its own
dignity, the rights of a large class of citizens '
of the South and West, and the Constitution
of the United States. | g
Resolved, That slaves do not possess the t
right of petition secured to the citizens of the
United States by the Constitution. 6
On the preamble and first resolution, the r
vote was 160 to 35, on the second resolution
162 to 18. v
R. M. Whitney was brought to the bar and t
a resolution passed to furnish him with a copy I *
of the report of the conunltteo in relation to i a
his case. j [
Monday Feb. 13. R. M. Whitnev was
brought to the bar and asked time till Monday
to prepare for his trial: he also furnished the j
names of witnesses to be summoned.
Mr. Robertson moved to suspend the rule,
to offer a resolution enquiring of the President t
the nature of the communications held by him ?
with Santa Ana, with his reasons and author- ?
ity for sending him home in a public vessel.
Motion failed.
Feb. 15. The trial of R. M. Whitney was (
commenced. F. S. Key and Walter Jones are I ?
his counsel. " 11

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY Si, 1837.
Chekaw & Waccamaw Rail Road.? j
The Commissioners appointed by the Marion 1
Convention, to procure a reconnoisance of the j j
route for this road and an estimate of the pro-1 f
bable expense of constructing it. have moved j 1
in the subject with commendable promptness. '
We have much pleasure in announcing that [
they have engaged the services of Mr. White 2
of Charleston, one of the Corps of Engineers 1
of the Cincinnati and Charleston R. R. Com- 1
pany, who is now on the ground. He left j c(
here yesterday morning and will proceed forth- \
fcith in hi9 reconnoisance. t
By a reference to the proceedings of Con- s
gress in another column it will be seen that the 1
House of Representatives rejected a resolu- J
tion declaring that slaves have not the right
of petition. This gave rise to very great excitement
among the Southern members, who
held some meetings on the subject, and would,
no doubt, have recommended some speedy action
by their constituents which would have
most probably led to n Southern Convention.
The subsequent proceedings in the House
however, seem to have allayed the excitement.
j
Abuse of the l\ S. Mail.?On the morning
of Thursday last, which was a very wet day, I
we saw a large mail portmanteau, taken from |
the Post Office in this town and thrown on j
the top of the stage passing north, with no pro- !
tectiou whatever against the rain. The ino9t !
of the southern papers which we received I
from the office that morning were as wet as j
if they had been thrown into a tub of water.
The joint committee of the two Houses of
Congress on the subject of the Presidential
election, in their report (concurred in by the ; 1
two houses) take the ground that an elector <
holding a disqualifying office at the time of \
his election, cannot remove his disqualilica- J 1
tion by resigning such office, after his election, t
But it was determined not to raise the ques- ?
tion at the present time, because the number 8
of electors disqualified in this way does not
affect the result. j
It has hitherto been the practice of the De-j ,
partraent of State at Washington to forward, j (
at the public expense, a copy of the National j t
Intelligencer and other newspapers to the | J
Ministers, Charge D'Affairs and Consuls-Gen- t
eral of the Government abroad. The Depart- t
ment has lately addressed a note to the editors
of the National Intelligencer,stating that 1
the subscription to that paper for this purpose i?
kviiV cease at the expiration of the time for which
payment has been made in advance, i
which time will expire in August next. The <
Editors, lcarnmg from this that it was not the J
wish of the Department to continue their pa>er
for the use of our foreign legations, imme- (
liately refunded the ad\ %ncc payment; but t
;hey still continue to 6end *he paper as for- j
nerly, leaving it optional with those who re- !
;eive it, to pay for it or not. They thus generously
agree to contribute more than 8100
>er annum rather than suffer the functionaries
>f the government abroad to be dependant
or a knowledge of political occurrences at c
lomc, upon one-sided and partial accounts of j I
iiein. j'
Our foreign ministers surely ought to po3- j p
jess the fullest possible information in regard ; p
;o matters at home pertaining to their Mis- i g
sions, and no one can doubt that this is more
Ifcely to be obtained by reading the most rc- j c
jpectable journals of all political parties, than t
>v confining their attention to those of one 0
3arty. This party movement of the adininis- > r
:ration is therefore not only illiberal, but may j
- .1 - I 4
)perate to tne serious injury 01 tne country. ; ?
The National Intelligencer, although opposed ^
o the present administration, is conducted t
vith so much ability, fairness, and decorum c
hat it i6 a credit to the country, and ought to
)e read by every one whose situation is such i c
is renders it necessary for him to be acquain- v
ed with our national politics. ^
The President and Mr. Calhoun.?The j
^resident has addressed to Mr. Calhoun a let- j
er, quoting a paragraph from a report of Mr. j ii
Vs speech on the land bill in the Globe, in , f
vhich he is made to charge the Presidentj*
vith being engaged in land speculation, and to i j
nsist that the passage of the bill would benefit 1 J
lini and other speculators. The President! u
;ays the imputation "is false in every par-1
icular," and "must bo considered the offspring
>f a morbid imagination, or of a sleepless mal- j
ce." lie demands that the charge bo public- ! J
y retracted in Senate, orthat|he be impeached j 1
>efore the House. If Air. C. will do neither, j S
le threatens then to publish the letter by [
vhich Air. C. "will stand stigmatized as one \ v
vr/\*re-ec*r-l h'v* h*s constitutional vri'. iloco '(
3 ready to stab the reputation of others with>ut
the magnanimity to do them justice, or the
lonor to place them in a sitution to receive it p
rom others." U
Violent as is the temper of Gen. Jackson, he ^
urely would have too much sense of propriety p
o descend from his station so far as to write 11
uch a letter, were he not laboring under a ?
. I C
norbid sensibility caused by disease. p
The report of Mr. C'g remarks in the Globe C
vas incorrect. It was not the President, but *
lis nephew and others in power that he named' jis
engaged in land speculations and likely to F
irotit by the land bill. ^

Dear Sir : It affords me great pleasure to If

niles south-west of this place, there to estabish
a new station and scour the adjacent ^
country. ^
I am truly happy to inform you, that the j
nen have generally conducted themselves
veil, and the only perverscness that I have j0
:een was attributable to liquor. Never before T
lid I perceive so glaringly the injurious ten- J.
lency of spirituous liquors, as its effects among A
soldiers; but fortunately for the officers and J C
he men, few in our battallion are addicted to C
ts use, and amidst the many freaks of our T
government, I must say that it acted wisely j ^
n substituting sugar and coffee in place of *
hat fiend of man.
There is nothing of much importance relaive
to the number or situation of the Indians. ^
It is the general impression that some nefari- ^
>us whites are engaged in supplying them j'
vith knowledge as to the movements of the Jj
irmv, andjl ike wise with ammunition. They e
ire dispersed in small squads and will undoubtedly
avoid any general engagement; some :
iuppose that the war is at present near its i
lose, hut I cannot Derceive UDon what this 1 1
, - ?- ? r i #
tupposition is based ; on the other hand if the ?
ndians avoid any collision, the extent of the &
:ountry and the impenetrable hiding places
eavc but little doubt that they may stick out S
or some time to come.
I have sent you the above information as ;
he most correct I can ascertain, and should I iny
thing of importance transpire during my !
itav here, I will give the shortest notice.
