Previous to Parting, the following interchange of expressions of regard took place between the Houses and their presiding officers, respectively. In the Senate On motion of Mr. Burrill, of Rhode Island, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Resolved, unanimously, That the thanks of the Senate be presented to the Hon. James Barbour, Senator from Virginia, for the dignified and impartial manner in which he has discharged the important duties of President of the Senate since he was called to the chair. Resolved unanimously, That tne tnanss ur uie oenate oe

Iowe at to truth, however, to say gentleman, that, but for the almost unlimited confidence with which you have constantly susrained the chair, I should have been utterly incompetent to discharge its arduous duties. If, gentlemen, in the course of your deliberations, momentary irritation has been at any time felt,or unkind expressions have ever, in the heart of debate, fallen from any of us, let these unpleasant incidents be consigned to oblivion, and let us recollect, only, the anxious desire which has uniformly animated every one to promote what appeared to him to be for the prosperity of our common country. Onepainfulcircumstance fills me with the deepest regret. It is that, after having co-opera-leu wun many or you, wita

The sentence of the circuit court was affirmed, and the property condemned. 1 his decision settles a point of law very important to the mercantile world, that where a house is established in the enemy's country, and one or more of u.c uicisiwmciu uic .umted States, or in a neutral country, his share is liable to con--v withstanding his personal domicd in the neutral countrv. as at in tne neutral country, as well as the shares of his co-part-ners, who are actually resident vvasihn-" ton march a r Conp .of he Umd owiwaujuuiuv.u i v.yuh..i6, ivnn'l ihirh -thpir mntitn beyond, which . their -Conjtitutional term of service did not nmir fKpmrn pvflif.. ruu u... v-.vu. sion.

Indeed, too many -propositions of real importance ; have, for the same reason, slept out their existence. The bill authorising the es.tablishment of a Provisional Government for Florida, in the .event of the ratification of the Treaty of Cession by Spain, has become a law. The bill fixing the day, (the second Monday in November) for the meeting of the neCongress, which had passed the senate, failed in the house of representatives, being indefinitely postponed, on the motion of Mr. Barbour. The bill concerning Invalid Pensioners, and the bill estabfishing post routes, have become laws. The act to amend the act incorporating the subscribers to the bank of the United States, has become a law. The bill in addition to the acts prohibiting the importation of slaves into the United States, was not, as we had supposed, lost, in consequence ot a disajrrecment between tne two
