But though the two branches passed resolutions to meet, and go into an election, when they came to meet, thirteen Sonators, calling themsolve# Democratic, refused to be present, and as the law, as it stood, required two-thirds of each branch to be present, to form a quorum, no quorum could be formed without them.— They were in the lobby looking on and laughing, but refused to answer to tneir names, or as soon as tailed would run out.

that hi* guest was not only a

political admirer but persona) acquaintance and friend of that great American Statesman. The General, therefore, was not constrained, as the sequel will show, by the delicacy due to the feelings of one of whose sentiments ho was ignorant, to conceal his own sincere sentiments of Mr. Clay. The American officer was to set outat four or five in the morning in a diligence for Paris. Not expecting to find the old war worn' soldier stirring at sri early an hour, he was leaving without a formal farewell. As he was crossing the Court, however, George Washington Lafayette, the son of the General, followedjiim and loldhim his father desired to see him. He was introduced into the General's study, where, by the light of candles, he was employing his pen. Pressing his gupst in vain to remain- longer, the General said "Before you leave me, I want to show you our friend and leading into another room, he exhibited a portrait of Mr. Clay. "Sir," said the General, "thit is the man whom I hope to see President of the United States." The incident was happy and one produced a lasting impression on the mind of tlie officer. The bosom companion of Washington, his comrade in arms in glorious revolution, feeling the deepest interest in the welfare of the United States and well acquainted with their policy, their institutions and their,great men, Lafayette, with the wisdom of the Father of his country, pointed out the man fit and worthy to stand at the head of the government. But his sainted spirit will look down in '45 and rejoice in the consummation of his hope*, which heaven, impatient to claim one of its first-born, denied him while in the flesh.—Frankfort Commpnwealth.

Weftre in our last a fongarticlel Boston Atlas,a sound Whig paper, d"

the question of what Mr. W^gwg M*. now that he is" out of office.

u» hftve grown ajdt of 4fab|*

ratfdebytbeCourier, is| wlucti fc*|j|s Insisted that Mr. Webster, being noNkiagir in office, would be perfectly indifferent ssjlo wha occupied the great offices of GowefBraent, including that of tbe Navy Depart^, ment aod its incumbent, Davii Henshaw.*—4 This declaration the Athre regards as beisg derogatory to the character of Mr. Webster and insists that the services Mr. Webster ha* performed, and the places he has filled, oiMsi forev-er so identify him with theoountry, as to render it impossible he should so act. We like to take sides with our friends, and should be, happy to agree with the Atlas in this particular, was not our judgement agamst position. -Thaf Mr. Webster's name aid former public services must evfr rein iin »a. part of the history of the country, is ineviu* ble, ail must agree but, tnlit tliose who hate in jimes post delighted to do him honor, Jia|e now arfy guarantee that his feeling* are sueb as to prompt him to partoe the pHth in wh*-*-he was wont to treaa, before the unforti exaltation of John-Tyler to the Preside we utterly denjr. ..

That tho Atlas should find tl dimcuft divest itself of feelings toward Mr. Webster imbibed when they were mutually in defending the same cause, and at & ti when Mr. Webster was regarded as lhat an American Statesman ought to be* W perfectly natural. But such feelings shbu^l not be indulged beyoad the point of reciprocity. In forming an opinion as to how, Webster may hereafter feel and act, will not do to refer to his speeches delivered ifi 1840, dr any previous date*. 1 he DsHiSt Webster, as shown forth in those speeches, is alas no longer to be found We might as well look for the Edward Burke, Who spoke, so triumphantly in the British Parliament against taxing the American Colonies,m th^ person of the pensioner, who afterwards defvoted the whole energies of hii mind to defending the divine right of Kingk,-

Why should Daniel Webster feel an^ position to the appointment of David Henshii or any other Locofoco I The man whs could politically fraternize, as he did, with the WicklifFes, the Spencers* the Forwards^ tho Gilpins, the Wises, the Barkers, and hundreds Of such ilk, who by their support of iackson and his usurpations set the destruens* ball of Locofocoism in motion, can have no reason for looking upon the appointment of David Henshaw with indignation

We beg to admonish orn friend of lha AH«4nttl,

against relying upon the sentiments expressed by Mr. Webster on the presentation of the Vase, or his speeches upon much greater subjects, so fur as political integrity is con? cerned. Were we so disposed, we could show from his speeches on the subject of the apr pointing and removing power, made in th* Senate of the United States, enough to oonr vict him before any honest jury, of the mM| palpable moral treason.

All! have to say about thst matter is, that I never knew nor heard that such a meeting had been held, nor that any united expression of that kind had been given, nor do I believe that any thing of the kind ever took place. The only truth I saw in the editorial alluded to, was a discovery made by the Editor of the Express, that "the Wabash was not on fire," a remarkable instance of sagacity, for which I gave him great credit. In reference to the appraisement laws, inasmuch as the proceedings under them involve the validity of titles to land, they are of incalculably more importance than any temporary relief they might afford, and therefore the question has been raised once, 1 believe only in this Circuit, merely for the purpose of bringing the question before the Supreme Court and having it definitely settled, aod-with that or at any fate, with one or two exceptions, at most, I believe there has been a disposition to allow the proceedings under executions to take their fegofepr course under the appraisement laws, until this important question shall hare been thus determined.

DR. PUSEY'3 PUBLTf PROFESSION OF RO-: MAN" CATHOLIC DOCTRINE. On Snnday last Dr. Pussy preached (oa lalrjjp congref(aiion at Christ Church,and publicfy,and without reserve, pfdfpssrfd and taught the great fondammtai doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church, namely, Transubstantiation. Tho text was that which describes the institution of the Lord's Supper by our Lord -Mathew .xxxvi, v. 26,27,28 compared with John vh, 54. Dr. Pnsey took these texts in the literal sense in which the gross-mended Jews and uninatmcted disciples took them, and for which they were rebuked by our Lord. In the first part of his sermon, Dr. Pusey adopted the precise line of argument employed by Dr. Wiseman in his volume published in the year 1836, and which consisted of lectures delivered at the English College at Rome. Following Dr. Wisaman. Dr. Pusey maintained, that on concentrating the elements ol, bread and wine, a change took place, but the mode of which it Was presnmptous to inquire, but which we were to regard as a wonderful mystery, that it should be bread and wine, and yet the very body and blood of Christ.— In support of these statements Dr. Posey quoted the language of the Council of Trout, Session xiii, c. 3 and 4. It may be remarked here, that Dr. Twton, the able and learned Dean of Westminster, in his. work on the Eucharist, has ably criticised the principles of interpretation adopted by Dr. Wiseman, but of thesecritieisms Dr. Pusey took not the least nbticc.

The second part of his sermon was on the Commitnicotian of the Rem'usion of Sins and here the reader will perceive comes the awful and practical part of the subject. Tran*ubstantiation is not barren, import ative speculation, but constitutes a system of divinity and determines the Whole character of the revelation: of God's will to manand Dr. Pusey Went neoossarithe whole length of the argument and laboured to ow, that the "Remission of sins'^wferred not only to the atonement on the cross, by the one offering of the body of Christ, bm also to the oelebration of the Lord's Supper here again he quoted "tAe Ancient Church,"asauthority. This doctrine is also maintained ia Tract 90, as we noticed at the time, this Tract asserting—"that there is nothing in the XXXI. Article against the mass in itself, or against its being an offering for the remission of sin. when considered as a^ continuation of ChrialVsacrifiice.1'—p- 68. first edtion.

Consistently with these views...Dr, Pussy,, in
