From the National Intelligencer. Washington, March 5, 1835. Last Day of the Session. The two Houses of Congress adjourned, the night before last, their functions then ceasing: and what a wreck of public business ensued ! In our two or three last papers wo expressed our opinion respecting the state of the public business in the Hou3e of Representatives. It would have been os just, had our intimation respected the state of the House. With a great deal of talent, and we have no doubt, too, a great deal of patriotism, the late House of Representatives had been brought into a condition, by various causes, in which it seemed incapable of getting on with the business of the country. Attentive observers have noticed a tendency of this kind from the early part of the session; but its last days forced the truth on the minds of all. Long debates, the endless perplexity of the rules; contests, every moment, about priority of business; and an eagerness of discussion, which ssemed entirely to disregard the compirative importance of subjects, were among these causes. There were others, of which we would speak, of which indeed we shall feel it our duty to speak, and speak freely, hereafter; but which we at present forbear to mention. The melancholy result of the whole is, that Congress has broken up, leaving almost every groat i measure of the session unfinished, and therefore totally null and void. The following bills, origin-1 ating in the Senate, most of them passing that body by Urge majorities, and same of them quite unaniinously.have shared a general wreck and ruin: The Post Office Reform Bill; (pis3ed unanimously in the Senate.) The Custom House Regulation Bill; (passed nearly unanimously in the Senate.) Tho Bill regulating the Deposites of the Public Moneys in the Deposite Binks. Tho Bill respecting the Tenure of Office, and Removals from office; (a most important bill, supported in the Senate by men of all parlies.) The Bill indemnifying claimants for French Spoliations, before 1S00. These. half dozen, (not to speak of the bill for the relief of tho cities of the District of Columbia; tho bill providing for the increase of the Corps of Engineers; the bill to carry infoefikct the Convention between the United States and Spain; and the hill to improve the navigation of the Mississippi in the vicinity ofSf. Louis,) are among tho bills which were sent from the Senate to the Honse of Representatives, "and never heard of more." The Fortification Bill is totally lost! Yes, in . this very critical moment of affairs, not only has no . new measure ordefending the country been adopted, but the annual appropriation for Fori ificat ions is totally lost! We can hardly credit ourselves when wc write this paragraph. Yet such is the fact; not a dollar is appropriated to fortificatione, and we doubt whether it be not tho bounden duty of the President to call the new Congress at the earliest day possible. Certainly most certainly such is his duty, if ho has any reasonable apprehension whatever of hostilities with a foreign nation. The attendance of Senators was remarkable, the whole evening, as it had been the day and night previous. A little before 12 o'clock, the lust night forly-six Senators answered to their names, and the remaining two were in their seats a minute afterwards, so that every Senator was at his post to the last moment. Such a thing has probably never occurred before. THE LAST ACT. The Globe of the 6th inst. commenting on the foregoing article, remarks as follows : The Intelligencer gives the following account of the concluding scence in which the Senate sacrificed all the appropriations for fortifications, even those in a state of progress for some years, to defeat the measure cf the House, providing for the contingency of hostile movements on the part of i ranee. I ho Intelligencer brings the narrative down to the appointment of the Committee of Conference, and then says: "No communication coming from the House, however, and it being already past 11 o'clock, the Senate, fearing for the fate of this bill, and desirous of pressing its great importance upon the attention of the House, sent them the following message : Resolved, That a message be sent to the Honorable the House of Representatives, respectfully to remind the House of the report of the Committee of Conference, appointed on the disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the amendment of the House to the amendment of the Senate, to the bill respecting the fortifications of the United States.' "When this message was read in the House, we learn (for we were not present) that the Chairman of the Committee of Conference (Mr. Cam bre lens) said he had not taken, or should not take, the responsibility of presenting the report of the t.vo Committees, on account of the lateness of the hour, or the thinness of the House or for both Te&sons adding, also, that he was himself against the liejort. Therefore, Mr.JL,Evis, the next named on the committee, made a report of the concurrence of the two committees. The subject was then again before the House : . and, as to what then ensued, for the next hour or two, as we did not see it, we will not venture to describe from hearsay. We learn, however, that the Senate, having waited still a good while longer,, in hopes of hearing from the House, and not hearing, sent still another message, in forming the House, that they, the Senate, had no further business before them. ro answer coming to this message, tH3 enaie, aucrwaumg a consiaerawe time longer, and heanng nothing from the bill, tmally adjoarned-aud t!.e bill, therefore, is utterly lost.' U I, being .Ueady pas. 11 o'clock" (.! I - telligencer) wiien ttie committee reported to the o f . . . House! This is the artful mode of filsification adopted by the editor to screen tho conduct of Messrs. Clay, Calhoun, Webster, &.c. who struck out the appropriation for the public defence, and hoped to make the House submit, rather than risk the responsibility of losing the ordinary appropriations for fortifications in progress. "It being past 1 1 o'clock!'." It was indeed past sloven o'clock when the committee reported, and every member of the House had the evidence of h;a own watch to prove it; for it icas past one o'clock, and the House had no constitutional existence. The Senate refused to pass the hill when in its handstand when it was impossible for the House to reconsider the subject, or even to vote upon it Deforc the term of service of tho members Vxpircd. The public will remark a curious instance of what the Editor calls tact, but what honest men would mark by a still shorter term, in tho expressions attributed to Mr. Cambreleng. He is made to abandon the bill on the ground of Hateit ss of the hour" the thinness of the House" ?40w the truth is, Mr. Cambreleng placed his sur--ender cf the subject upon the fact that the hour Tfhich terminated the existence of the body had expired, and the further circumstances that there v:zs not a quorum of members answering to their names, tbey having left their places in consequence of their character ceasing at 12 o'clock. For a report of what took place, we refer to our nper of yesterday. Every one present knows bat the committee of Conference, (Messrs. Camureleru, Hubbard, and Lewis,) did not return to ;he House till past 12 o'clock, and that they had just commenced calling the yeas and nays, and bad
reached the Bs when a controversy arose about a
member's refusing to vote because the House wa? no longer in existence. When it was ascertained that there was no quorum, a motion was immediately made to adjourn, and there was still no quorum. mere vns11u4uuru111 vuiiugirum wuv till after three in the morning, when the House, learned that the Senate had adjourned, also ad journed. It struck four as we reached home, vv e do not hesitate to pronounce the article in the In telligencer, as it regards time and the conduct of the Committee of Conference, utterly untrue, for an opposition member had, before the Committee of Conference returned from the conference with the Senate s committee, declined voting, upon the ground that he had no right to vote, as he was no longer a member of Congress; and many other members of both parties had gone home, declaring that they were no longer members of that body. Neither Mr. Cambreleng, Mr. Hubbard, nor Mr Lewis, ever could have presented the report to the j House, for there was no House to receive it. Mr. Lewis did not, as stated by the informant of the In- j telligencer, present the report. He attempted to j do so, but on being appointed a teller with Mr. Cambrelcng, and not being able to count but 114 members at two o'clock in the morning, he did not make the report at all. The Senate were deter-; mined, from seven o'clock in the evening, to drive tho House from their position to defend the c.ol,n,tr; al lh, Xd Vf losia ,h whole f.irtifica tion bill, and fiiling in accomplishing the first, they have attained their ultimatum, and destroyed i me loruncaiion 0111, 10 me greai ueirimeni 01 iu . i . i .:. i ii . . i . i . . r a.public service, and the regret of every man who has a spark of patriotism. Wc would recommend to the Editors of the Intelligencer to procure a correct copy of tho amendment of the House, propo sing a conditional appropriation of three millions of dollars tor the cietenco ot the country tor they j have omitted a material word. The following is I the amendment as it passed the House, and we are j authorized to state, that tho words ia italics were j 1 fts Am t ' t inserted in place ot others, leaving too mucn thscretion to the Executive, and that tho words ccssary, as published in the Intelligencer,) are the ! manuscript cony in the hand-writin- of tho distin- i gnished opposition member from Vircinia, and if!
the bill was not so engrossed, it was an error of the j was inflicted by Mr. Lane was an iron cane, covClerk, and not of the House. The following is the j ered or wraped with thread. The wounds inillc-

tcc v&alOil i mouse of representatives, Febuary, 28 1S33. Mr. Hannegan, from the select committee appointed to investigate and report the facts to the House in the case of an assault upon the Hon. John Ewing, a member of the House of Representatives, submitted the following report. The select committee to which was referred the investigation of the circumstances of the assault made by Lieutenant John F. Lane, of the army, on the Hon. John Ewing, a member of the House, havin" had tho same under consideration, and j oivento tho matter all the attention in their power at this late period of the session, report the following facts, which are all that have been disclosed to them in the course of the examination: This examination, they would in tho first place Estate, has been conducted throughout in the pre sence of Lieut. Lane, to whom the privilege was j 'Tiven of cross-examining the witnesses, and who was also allowed to introduce such testimony as he conceived was essential to his defence. It may be well to remark that, after the testimony had been closed on the pan of the committee, Lieut. Lane rave tho committee to understand that he did not feel himself bound to introduce any evidence going to show what his private motives were for the assault upon Mr. Ewing. The history of the case itself is comprised in a few words, and will be given substantially as disclosed hv the witnesses. It appears that on Thurs i .1 k-? 1 1 ? .,! f uay evening, me oui iiiuino, immeumciy Jiuer the adjournment of the House of Representatives, as Mr. Ewing was passing from the Capitol to his lod"ins, he was encountered on the Avenue hv Lieutenant Lane, who accosted him, apparently in no unfriendly spirit, and with the simple observa- . . t I 1 ft lion that ho wished to speal; wiih nun. Altera moment's pause, and an intimation from Mr. Lane to Mr. Ewing, that bis object in seeking him was to punish him, (his hands being in his pockets at the time,) and a retort, couched in warm language, from Mr. Ewing, ho was struck by Mr. Lane, j io his pocket. The blows were repeated, and an affrav of some little duration succeeded between them. The instrument with which the first blow ted upon Mr Ewing appear, from the testimony ol the attending physician, Dr. Blake, to have been severe. At the moment of separating, and afier the conflict was over, Mr. Lane, in the act of retiring from the crowd attracted by the occurrence, observed that his object was accomplished; that his intention was publicly to degrade Mr. Ewing, and that he had succeeded. From this assault no cause is assigned by Lientenant Lane, nor has he introduced any testimony rchlivc lo a per3onal difficully'or ii belween hlmsclfantl Mr. Ewing ndividual one nee The committee have been unable to ; t, hout tho invcsli;UiorN olhc-r tian ,hat discover any causens- ! signed by Mr. Ewing in his deposition, and that is, J curret aom0 ... ,,acl. in tho IIouSG of Renrcsentatives, between the Hon.

This brief statement embraces the material facts the committee have bcm able to collect, the brief lime allowed not permitting them to proceed fur 1 ther; and as but a few hours of the session remain,! ! they havo declined suggesting any steps for the ! consideration and adoption of the House. j mm . j Ffom ihc Vnkcd states Gazette. . ttJ, . , p ,.. .

They had sworn vengeance whenever this marriage, which they expected, should lake place. Thy all proceeded to John Caseyj house, tho door of which was shut. John King burst open the door and said "there tho wav is clear."' He, with the two Rouses remained at the door.
