i.-. hut onir cnouirii to receive ami impose of the Message of the President ot tho i'nited States ami the accompanying doccu nents therewith transmitted, in relation to o.ir dying controversy with France. Mr.Clav addressed theSenatc in congratulation of the happv termination of this protracted diifieultv. and in the course of hi renarks found occasion to read a lecture to a ertain cpiandam Secretary of Stale, now the President elect of the United States hy the immutable decree of the Baltimore Convenion. from which some sound inferences may No. drawn as to the nature of consistency, and as to the obligations which it may be presumed to impose." I nvirvel much that these awfully free expressions of opinion were alT mod to pass bv without eliciting some of the . lo.pient thunder of the party. Hut so it was: Mr. Clav sat down the documents were ordered to be printed, without a reference, and the Senate ouictlv adjourned. If there is any mvsirrv in this nreccdinir. the Spy in Washington "will give you details." The Message itself, as well as the documents, will be read with interest. There is some manifestation in the former of the "ruling passion" the French war is ended, but it was impossible that "our bruised arms should bo set no for monuments.-' without giving one more box on the ear to the Senate ot thej United States. 1 am sure, however, that you will cordially unite in the general feeling olj i l.: .t .... 11,. 1 ?..;.... iV.m pieauie w mi u hi.im r ...... ., the conviction uiau vvunoui uimumhm . uu without compromise, our troubles are at length successful terminated.

Hut now that the battle is over now that our swords are turned into ploughshares our own implements of war into railroad tracks our forty-two pound shots into apple dumplings and our warlike songs into peaceful bucolics the question arises, to what source are the great men of the land to look for the elements of excitement, discord and turmo'l? Abolition of slavery is buried al beit buried alive and though il may exhibit some symptoms of animation, yet, for every effectual purpose of agitation, they will signify no more than the insensate motions of a lifeless body under the influence of galvanic operation.

Their object however has net been obtained. The general understanding appeare d to be that .Mming in each week was the day set apart tor peti lions, and the Speaker confessed he had him-' selffallcn into thai error: whereas it is not M mday but the f'r.! !ig of the meeting in each week. Mr. Adams w.is the gentleman who brought this fact to light; and the consequence was. that the whole day has been consumed in debating points of order grow ing' out of abolition memorials presented a w eek ago,

The whole debate on the question of order! whole matter. What I want to know is thihas centered niainh on the construc tion iobc Did Col. Heiilon, in his publication, give

given to the language of Mr. Pinckncy's resolution, which provided "that all memorials which had heretofore been olfered. or w hich might hereafter be presented on the subject of slavery in the district of Columbia, should be referred toa select Committee, A:c." The opponents of that resolution have insisted that a petition presented was not a petition received that if such an interpretation was to be put upon the resolution, every memorial however injurious or disrespectful in its language and tendency might, under the sanction T.t that resolution, be passed into the handsof the Committee and that many of those w ho had voted for its adoption, bail bv these means been entrapped into giving a vote winch they never could have intended to give.

The neakcr. that decision. If. therefore, as regards the : past something has been lost, as regards the future much will he gained because the effeet of this reversal will be to cut otVall chance for 'he debate, bv handing the petitions o er to the Select Committee as fast as they may be presented. Under these circumstances, 1 j think that agitation and discussion in relation to slavery are temporarily brought to a clo.e. . . . - ... i i at least uniil the select l ofiimillce shall make their report.

Mr. Mann vindicated the course ol proceeding, spoke in extacies of the decision of the Speaker, fold Mr. Hell he was always bringing himself and his friends into trouble by his extreme solicitude as to rules and orders, and then paid a high compliment (over the left shoulder) to the great erudition of that gentleman in all things connected with rules for the government of the House. Mr. Hell, alw ays gentlemanlike and never inten- .... i ii ji itionallv personal, repelled the sarcastic insin- - ' . . ., .!. , , . ,. nation which the gilded compliment on bis ... . i i. mi erudition was intended to convev.nnd told Mr. U. , .. . .

Mr. Mann re lorted gave back the word ''impertinent," under the all virtuous qualification of an "if and the matter having thus proceed fo the iourth cause, namely "the. reproof valiant, was heard to pass off without further trouble. It seems probable that this question of the contested election will be a hard bone of contention in the House, as such matters us-l ually arc. Decision in these cases is always protracted, and if wc are to cite that of Messrs. Letcher and Moore as an example of the expedition with which the present dispute will he determined, one may reasonably suppose that the right of either parly to a seat w ill be left at the expiration of the twenty-fourth Congress, just w here it w as at the commencement. There arc. however, some political considerations, which may pcrhrps be instrumental in bringing the contest to an issue more speedv than it would otherwise obtain. The Hill for the relief of sufferers by fire in the cily of New York, came up to-day on its final passage. I regret to be compelled to add. that the question was not taken: and 1 regret the more, because tomorrow and Saturday are private bill days, and I much doubt w hether the House can be induced to c hange its order. You are aware that, tho" nearly half the Session has elapsed, very little has been done in the actual transaction of business' There are an immense number of private bills requiring the action of the House. Mr. Whittlesey, the Chairman of the Committee of Claims, and a gentleman to whose never-'.irii.g exertions the private claimants in every part of the I nion are greatly indebted, is hard to move on tho point of suspending the order cm these davs. Nevertht less, he has in this regard shewn a benevolent disposition towards the N. ork I rie Hill, even though he voted against it ; Taking into view the number of opponents of the bill, whoso aim is to defeat it either bv do layoranv oilier means, it ujH searecelv be posiMe to get the bill up to-morrow, if Mr. hiltb ey and his pri ale bill party should oppoe it. Hut I do not despair. I h a.! proposed to notice briefly the renewed attack which has been this dav made upon the Hill bv Mr. D. J. Pearce w ho spoke for upwards of an hour and a epiarter, and whose h.uatigo threw llie House into tiiat unsettled condition, for which there is no remedy save an adjournment and a good nights sleep. Hut I find I can say nothing about it, until I have had time together the ends of mv wits together. II. A MtJHT AT TIIF.

Thinking upon this great self-supporting pow er of a small portion of the country at large wc cannot but feel how great and mighty is the nation to which it belongs. Who that sees how no prostration can keep us down. and how soon we can rise from a heavy mi? fortune, but beholds therein a feeble type of this magnificent republic ? Who, in looking forward to the destiny of our states, and towns and cities, and of the land they comprise, can know 'The days of ber ileep-fouiuled strength, or tell 'How happy in her lap the t-ons of men shall dwell!' . 1. Knickerbocker, Mohocuacy. A mob, at Maysvillc, Co. N. York, recently took in hand the ad justment of legal titles to lands, by the des truction of the records. Tips is but repeal ing charters, and expunging journals, in a particular form. The Maysville move is thus narrated in a paper of the vicmitv: 'DkSTKI CTION OF THE LaMjOfEICE IX THIS Co. Wc regret to be obliged to state, that the Land Oflicc at Maysville, was levelled to the ground on Saturday last, hy some five hundred individuals, whose feelings have been wrought up to the highest pitch of cxas peration by the course pursued by the new Land Company. Information, it appears had been circulated through several of the back tow ns, that a convention of the settlers was to be held at Harnhart's place, abouttwo miles from Maysville, at (i o clock on Saturday evening, by which a large collection was got together, and they then proceeded to Mays ville, posted sentinels around the Land Office while others commenced the work of destruction, which was persevered in until the main building, w hich was of wood, was completely prostrated und scattered about, and the stone vaul adjoining (which withstood their efforts about two hours) was entered, and the hooks and papers obtained , w hen they returned to the place of rendezvous, w here the books and papers were put in a pile, and an attempt made to burn them; but, through the earnest intercession of a few citizens, they were rescued and saved.

Hy way of comment upon this outrage, we say, first, that we think the settlers have recently been very unfairly dealt with.

It is ifuated on the basement storv of the Capitol. under the Senate chamber, and below i he House of Uepresentatives the committee room and all the public and private apartments of the Capitol. it is located on the Northeast comer of the North East AVing of the Capitol. The room itself aside from its ocation is not very unpleasmg in its appearmce; though it is far from being convenient or suited to tlie deliberations of such a bodvof men. Among various ornaments in the room there is in one of the niches in a prominent situation, a bust of John Jay, the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the V. States.

The venerated Story is sill in the same place, next to the spot where so long he and the loved Chief Justice have sat together. Thompson. McLean and Haldwin are there, names w hich for their station if not for them sc lvcs are enough to interest every Ameriran citizen. The Counsellors engaged in the various branches generally consist of the Senatorsand Ilepresantativ es in Congress. The Attorney General Mr. Butler, the Clerks of the Courts and Spectators are seated in front of the Judges. Generally but few save the interested parties are present. At times however the Court room is so full that it is impossible to obtain an entrance. Worthy of Attention.
