The eflect and popularity of the address,were evidenced in the repeated bursts of applause by which the speaker was interrupted.

We looked for it with the deepeat interest, and it has satisfied our highest hopes, hvcrv Whiff, we are confident, will now be assured, that in voting for General Harrison, he did his duty to his country and thousands of those who voted otherwise will not lament that they did so in vain. 1 hough somewhat long, we commend a careful perusalI ot it to every citiaen of America and if there is one who docs not feel himself made better by its mild and truly republican spirit, we know not ol what material* he is

The controversy between Mr. FORSYTH and Mr. VAN NESS

as to the question whether Mr. VAN NESS was Minister after tne 1st October, 1835, is most singular and to state it fully would greatly extend this communication, and involve Mr. Van Ness in a matter which will no doubt become a subject of judicial investiga tion.

My main purpose is to call thcattention of Congrew to the enprmous expenditure which has been charged on account of this mission, with the hope that this and ail other diplomatic accounts will be closely and thor oughly investigated.

COL. R. M. JOHNSON.

The following is Vice President JOHNSON'S Address to the Senate upon his relinquishing the President's char in that body. "In taking my leaveof this bodv, no language is adequate to express my feelings. I have been asBOCiatea many years in the councils of our common country, and it has been my great pleasure and happiness, that my personal relations have always been kind ana friendly, without distinction of party. I was elected to the place I occupy by an equaJ vote of the jf"®®* torial Colleges, ana a majority of the votes of the people. "After having served my country for thirty-two years—two years in the Legislature, and thirty years is the service of the Government—it is natural that my rememebrance should be awakened to the past. My situation here has been pleasant and agreeable,

has been the generous and magnanimous course of conduct of all towards me, that it could not be otherwise. If, in the discharge of my official duties, I have ever failed to meet your appobation, it has been rather from the want ot ability than of will. My intentions have always been to preside with impartiality and justice"The place I nold is hereafter to be occupied by a by a di8tinguished son of Virginia, and in leaving the place I occupy, it is with no feeling of dissatisfaction towards anyone, or towards the verdict of the people against me I have always bowed, and always shall bow, in deference to the will of the majority. Permit ma to take this occasion to bid you all an affectionate farewell. Whatever destiny may await you, my beat wishes attend you, both in your affairs in this world and in your destiny in the world to come."

Colonel Johnson exhibited much emotion during the delivery ot this valedictory. Mr. Mangum moved a ft

Itscontiguity tothcstcam boat landing, and its central position in regard to the business of the town, must always make it a disirabllocation to those in any way connected with that business. Attached to it are large and extensive stables, which it is my determination to place under the control of careful and attentive persons, in whose hands the horses of travellers and others will be faithfully attended to. In all the departments of the establishmen t, I design to see that order and regularity is preserved, added to faithful and prompt attention to the guests of he House.
