There was not so much fi.-ink Capital by

There were no State Debts of nny impor

There were no alarming excess of importa

Territory in which it circulated, and the inteichange of commodities it effected was not known in the world. '2J. We must bear in mind, when Gen. Jackson and Mr. Van Buren solemnly promised to make this currency thus good, better than it was. That all the Whigs in Congress predicted An utter disorder of the Domestic Exchanges:

An excess of importations on account of an

unregulated currency;

Suspensions of specie payments ana iJiinit

ruDcies innumerable, and,-

A great increase ot Dank capital and uanK

circulation, with great excesses ol credit.

3J. We must also remember, that all these

evils often iustlv complained of, r- the evil

results of a rash and fatal experiment support

d by Mr. Van Buren, though olten lore-

warned of all its alarming consequences.

We ark then are the artificers of bvil so to

profit of that evil as to be justified in seizing

the toutrol ol the ruhiic rurse, aua in crea

ting one currency for the Government, and

another for the IVopic.

Of the dangerous tendencies ol unchecked

been aware. In 1SJ4, this was the whole

burthen of the Whig song. The Federal

Government is, however, wholly powerless in

this respect over the States. lis example e

Mr Clay introduced a bill to amend the act

in relation to copy rights. This is the same

measure which Mr Clay brought in at the session before the lust, but which was not acted on. He presented it again at the last session.

It ws referred to the Judiciary Committee,

where it had again failed to receive any decisive action, owing probably to the multiplicity

of other engagements by the members Mr.

Clay now proposed its reference to the same committee; and he hoped they would now act upon it. He only wanted the sense of the

Senate respecting the measure. He was de

sirous for its success; but he would cheerfully

submit it to the pleasure of the Senate. The

bill was accord in git- referred.

Corretpottdemce of the Baltimore Patriot. Washington, January, 10, 1840. IOWA AND MISSOURI. In the Senate, after the receipt of numerous private memorials, a h-tter wm presented by Mr Ctay, of Alabama, from the delegate of Iowa, reflecting on some remarks of Dr. Linn which appeared in the Intelligencer of this morning, in relation to the disputed boundary line between Missouri and Iowa. The letter asks as Iowa is ncccSsaiily unrepresented on the floor, that Missoti-i will not charge the Geneial Government with ill treatment in relation to the dispute that if he were permitled tc refer to the liberality of Ccngress, he might point to a recent instance of a district

of country being added, and that not the only

instance cl liben.iny though Congress may

be possessed ol the powcr,he expresses a hope that it will not feel it a duty to extend these constitutioit.il limits. MrClaj of Alabama, moved its reference to the Judiciary Commit tee. Mr. Linn regretted that his young friend had deemed it necessary to write such a letter he thought the writer had entirely mis p. prehended hit remarks. He denied entering into the merits of the question, but had merely called the attention of Congress to a memorial long since presented, upon which Congress had done nothing lie merely wished to show that this was not an after thought of Missouri. He thought Iowa no party i the contest, it was between the General Government and Missouri, ..t.d alluded to the content betw een Ohio and Michigan, and seemed to think that the weight which Ohio and others received by their presidential electors had some influence in settling that question. Mr Norvdl thought the right cord to have been touched wheu reference was made to presidential electors his s) mpalhics were altogether with Iowa, though he wished the

question justly decided; but he protested

gainst the principle of Iowa having i.o rights

in the question, and thought the territory had

quite as much as the state.

Mr Linn said, that as a party to the ques

tion, Iowa had no right it was t imply a question between the General Government and

Missouri. Would any one pretend to say that Missouri could be forced into an acquiescence?

I he ultimate appeal was bevond the reach

ol Congros, and the churls were open; but

he certauily preferred that Congress should

settle it.

Mr Clay of Alabama, said he had not exam

ined the merits of the question, though the

gentleman ol Missouri had made a speech on the subject.

Mr Allen made a few remarks denying the urisdiction of the Courts in the case. Mr Buchanan thought it properly a judi

cial question, and one that riquired delibera

tion, and alter the committee had reported, that document should certain!) carry weight

here a question is introduced about the

right, of the Courts, Mr B. hoped no further debate would he entered into.

The letter was referred, nfier seme further

remarks from Messrs. Allen, and Clay of Ala

bama.

Mr Walker presented a memorial from cer

tain citizens of Florida, in favor of a division

of that Territory by thcSuaar.ee. Mr W

stated that many of the citizens were in favor

nf such a measure that it was one of high

importance he said there was territory ein ugh to construct several larger than most of the States of tl.e Union.

Mr Calhoun agreed that the subject was

one ofhigh interest, and would therefore sug

gest that it had better lie on the table for a

lew days.

Mr Wulker would have no objection to it,

but he should vote for the motion as made to refer il to a selet t committee.

Mr Wall from the Committee on the Judi

ciary, reported the bill for taking the sixth

Census.

ARMED OCCUPATION OF FLORIDA. At the usual hour, the Senate proceeded

to the consideration of the Special Order, being the Bill for the armed occupation of Florida.

Mr Strange, of North Carolina, made a

long and elaborate speech ia opposition to the

bill. He was followed by Mr. Tappan of Ohio, who moved to recommit the bill for the purpose of incorporating an amendment into it. At the suggestion of Mr Wall, the further consideration of the bill was postponed till to morrow. CASE OK LIEUT. COL. BRANDT. The President transmitted a message enelosing the proceedings of the court of inquiry in the case of this officer, at St. Louis, and all the correspondence; also, the report of the Secretary of War relative thereto. They were ordered to be printed and laid on the table. The Senate then went into Executive
