Previous to adjourning the huusa of repreSfnative9 sine die, resolution of thanks having been adopted, Mr speaker Smiley delivered the following veledictory address: Gentlemen of the house of representatives ; The labours of the present session are at length brought to a close, and the pleasing prospectofsoon returning tootir families and friends, now presents itself. Before we separate from the theatre of our public action, where itisnot probable we shall all ever meet again, you will permit me to avail myself of the op portunity of again tendering to you my sincere acknowledgements, and to express with increased gratitude the weighty obligations I am under to ou, collectively and individually, for that preferment with which you have been pleased to honour me, not only for the confidence manifested by electing me to preside over your deliberations, but al. so for the very flattering testimonial of your approbation as expressed in the reolution recently adopted. If my official services maj- have met with your approbation as expressed in the resolution referred to, 1 cannot be so vain as to presume that the merit all belongs to myself. The burthen of the Chair has been rendered less arduous, and the business greatly facilitated by that generous aid and indulgence so liberally extended to me on all occa aioi!3. And be assured that the tinremittii g marks of your personal friendship, so strikingly manifested throughout the session, shall be by me ever cherished and remembered with the warmest feelings of my heart, and adverted to as one of the happiest events of my life. Much business, both of a general and local nature, ha3 been transacted at this session perhaps mi.rc than at any preceding legislature of this state. Whether our octs will all comport with the best interests of the state, and meet the approbation of our constituents, time alone can determine. One consolation we have, that our productions have heen the result of caution and due reflection, and have all acted under the ardent, zeal and desire of promoting the best interests of the state. But if, in the course of the session, any unfriendly feelings may have been excited on the part of any of us, permit me earnestly to request "that those feelings (may now cease, and the causes which ned in oblivion; and that the friendship and acquaintance naturally formed amongst us, while labouring together in the service of our common country,may be cherished by each one of us to our latest breath. The time has now arrived that we must part. Gentlemen you will except ard bear with you to your respective hemes, assurances of my best w ishes and prayers for your present and future prosperity and happiness. Extract from Mr, Burgess'' Speech in the House of Representatives, on the Public Lands, "In the first place it had been suggested that this arrangement was premature for two reasons-lst, because the present is a time of great excitement, and 2ndly, because tbe lands were pledged for the debt of the United States. He would

agree that there rros a time of great excitement, but that this time is not now. There was an excitement and it was as well to speak out as to the cause. The late Presidential election had produced, a great excitement. But we may as well imagine the existence of the stoim which agitated and recked the ocean al sunset, when the billows were in contention which should roar the loudest, and

f oil the loftiest, when, on the following moining, it reflects the golden beams of the rising suo, smooth as a mirror, and still as sleeping infancy. This would be as correct as to speak of excitement now. The excitement zvas, but it has passed away, aDd the feeling? of friend a a a . & . ship and brotherly aU-clion again exist among us, although they may have been much embittered duiing the conflict which has ended. He agieed that there may yet be har.gers on still lingering in this place, to feed the exhausted passions meretricious wretches whose business it is to rekindle the expiring embers of discord, and who remain here lingering in the hope of spoil; some flights ol vultures hovering around some flecks of carrion crows guided b instinct in quest of their nauseou food a famished wolf lurkii g here, and von dersome lean and hut.gry dog, w ho w ill remain as loig as there is a rag to pilfer, and a bone to gnaw ; but the great par ties in the contest have retired, mapnan-imou-ify fo bear their lot, and to abide the isue with patriotic pleasure or re signation. Are we to say then, we must not do this because an election has just terminated? It ma) then be soon said, we must not do it because an election is approaching; and thus, this little calm will be entirely iost. Why not adopt the sentiment contained in the Scotish song "Brightest of all, fbe son's bright rays, "Wben between storm & storm they blaze " We shall act wisely to embrace this opportunity." Extract from one of Mr, Randolph's recent speeches in the 1'irginia Convention, Sir, I see no wisdom in making this provision for future changes. You must give Governments time to operate on the People, and give the People time to become gradually assimilated to their in stitution. Almost anything is better than this state of perpetual uncertainty, A people may have the best form of gov ernment that the wit of man ever devised; and yet from its uncertainty alone, may, in etlect, live under the worst Gov ernment in the world. Sir. how often must I repeat that change is not Reform. 1 am willing that this new CorBiulion shall stand as long as it is possible for it to stand, and that, believe me, is a very short time. Sir it is iti vain to denv it. They may say what they please about the old Consiitution the defect is Dot there. It not in the form of the old edi fice, neither in the design nor the eleva tion: it is the materia! it is the people of Virginia. To my knowledge that peo ple are changed from what they have been. The 400 men who went out to David were in debt. The partizan3 of Cffisar were in debt. And I defy you to show me a desperately indebted people any where, who can bear a regular sober government. I throw the challenge to all who hear me. I say the character of the good old Virginia Planter the man who owned from five to twenty clave?. who lived by hard work, and who paid his debts, i9 passed away. A new order of things is come. The period has arri ved of living by ODe's wits of living by contracting debts that one cannofpay and above all by living by office hunting. Sir, what do we see? Bankrupts branded bankrupts giving great dinners sending their children to the most expensive schools giving grand parties and just as well received as any body in society. 1 say, in such a state of things, the old constitution was too good for them; they could not bear it, JNo,sirthey could not bear a freehold of suffrage and a property representation. 1 have always endeavored to do the people justice but I will not flatter them I will not pander to their appetite for change. I will not agree to any rule of future apportionment, or to any provision for future changes called amendments to the Constitution. They who love change who delight in public confusion whe wish to feed the cauldron and make it bubble may vote if they please for fu ture changes. But by what fpell by what formula are you going to bind tht people to all future time ? Quis custodiet cxtstodesl The days of Lycurgus are gone by, when he could swear the people not to alter the Constitution until he should return anwio ?ior rariendi.

You may make what entries upon parchment you please. Give me a Constitu lion that w ill last for half a century that is all I w ish for. No constitution

that you can make will last the one half of half a century. Sir, I will stake any thine short of my salvation that those who are malcontent now will be more malcontent three ears hence than they are at this day. 1 have no favor for this cor.stitution.I flail vote ugaimt its adoption, and I shall advise all the peo pie of my district to set their faces- aye and their shoulders against it. But if we are to have it let us not have it with its death warrant in its very face: with heficics hypocratica the Sardonic grin of death upon its countenance." SUNDAY MAILS. We have seen in a New York paper, (the Courier and Enquirer,) some very extraordinary stoppages talked of a about to be cfiVcfed, we presunu, bv the usual advocates in the march of intellect In addition to the stoppage of the mail on Sundays, which is forthwith to be attempted, ihe Editors say they have the details of a petition for fixing the digestive functions of the bedy at a stationary point, on Sunday. Wo unto them, say the Editors, who eat fried oysters or lobsters on Saturday night! But this is not all -not a hundieth part r t the plan is yet developed. Trees, turnips, and torn cats grow, until they attain maturity, every day in the week, Sundays not excepted. These, and all the vegetable animal race are to be stopped in their work, once eveiv seven day?. If anv precocious boy is caught grow ig en Sun day, he is to be whipped out of it, pio vided the law be passed. One advantage from this is, that the people will live much longer, in the ratio of one to seven. f or msiance a man; oi seventy, the work of whose growth has been slopped on Sundays, will be only a man of sixty. li his growth could only be stopped eve ry day of the week, he would alwavs be a youth. We may come to lhi3 yet there aie no bounds to the march of in tellect. But the most astonishing parts of the scheme are yet to be developed. Will the reader believe if, the 'stoppers' intend to petition for the passage of a law obliging the tides to cease from their work, (i. e. their rise and fall,) on Sun days, and compelling the winds lo keep quiet also. But there is another cat to be let out of the bag. It has lately been ascertained that the earth (the reprobate) revolves on her axis, and travels along in her orbit on Sundays, Oh! if the earth had been caught doing this in Connecticut thirty years ago, and had been taken before Esq, Thompson, how soon ghe would have been fined five dollars and committed until paid! However, her morals are to be mmded, and if she presumes to carry mails or females on Sundays, she will be made to smart for if. active as she may now thii k herself in travelling seventy-five thousand miles & more in an hour. The law is to be universal in its application. The rajs of light from the sun are to be stopped every seven days, and put up in bottles, to be kept fcr the purpose at halfway houses, quarter-way houses ccc. which are to be established on the route between the United States and the Eun. It is said that the plaoets are going to kick up a dust on the occasion, and insist upon their right to work constantly accordii g to the laws of nature. "What the petition ers intend to do with old father Time, who travels on Suudaysj we have not heard. Oh! that they would stop him! He is a particular frierd of Saturn, and will probably follow the Jatter's advice. As yet, we have not seen him use a stop-watch; every new year he pulls out a repeater. Oh! that thepelU tioners only could stop his arithmetic, ns well as h"i3 motion that stern adder of years, subtracter of comforts, divider ct" hearts, and multiplier of wrinkles; who works all human bodies, sorner or later, by the rules of v ulgar fractions. .
