TWENTYNIVTII CONGRESS.
S £ C O N f) SESSIO N .
WashingTUN, Jan. IJ, 1817.
{SENATE.
r riiere was no business transacted in the
Senate to-day, in consequence of the dealli c>f
Mr. Penny backer, one of the Senators from
Virginia, which took place this morning - , at
bis lodging in this city.
The reading of the journal having been
dispense with, Mr. Archer ro-e and briefly
announced the decease of his respected col
league, making mention of the honorable
character which lie bore, and of the many
exalted stations which he had tided, on the
bench, in the House, and in Lite {Senate.
He was only 41 years of age—m the vigor
of manhood, and possessed of a constitution
which gave promise of a long life of useful
ness. His disease, however, resisted all tfie
efforts of medical skill, and lie ceased to live
this morning at 4 o’clock.
Mr. Archer concluded by moving the cus
tomary rosolution, which were adopted, and
the Senate adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. J. K. Ingersoll.moved a postpoment
of the orders, tor one hour, to allow the in
troduction of resolutions, but objection being
made, the motion did not prevail.
The lluure then, by a vote of 66 tn 48,
decided to go into committee of the whole on
the state of the Union; and, .Mr. Hopkins in
the chair, took up the Oregon territory bill.
The sth section, under consideration when
the committee rose yesterday, was stricken
out, on motion of Mr. Douglass, by whom
the bill was reported from the committee on
territories, and a subsiitue was adopted, pro
viding that every free white male inhabitant,
above* lie age of twenty-one years, who shall
have been a resident of the territory at the
time of the passage of this act; who shall he
a citizen of the I nited Stales, or declared on
oath his intention to become such, and who
shall have taken an oath to support the con
stitution of United St iles, shall be permitted
to vote at the first election.
15y an amendment yesterday offered to this
section, bv Mr. W. \V. Campbell, and adopt
ed, the right to vote at the first election, was
restricted to American citizens. The sub
stitute of Mr. Douglass cuts off the amend
ment of Mr. Campbell, and restores the sec
tion essentially to its original form.
The debate on this section was partici
pated in by iVles.-rs. Rockwell, of Massachu
setts, Rockwell, of Connecticut, W. W.
Campbell, Rrockenbrough, Douglass, Ciiip
mn n, and others.
An unsuccessful attempt was made to in
crease the salaries, ot the Chief Justice and
Associate Judges ol the new territories, from
$1,500. as fixed by the bill, to $2,000; and a
similar attempt, with no better success, was
made to-tlx t hem at $ 1,800.
An amendment was proposed, providing
that nothing regarding slavery in this act
shall be construed into an intention to inter
fere with the spirit of the Missouri compro
mise.
Mr. Hamlin, of Maine, supported tin's
amendment, though, lie said, the Missouri
compromise, in Ins opinion, had nothing more
to do with the territory of Oregon, than it h id
to do with the territories in the East Indies.
But, without the amendment, slavery would
be Just as sure t > creep in there, as into Hie
“Garden of Eden,” (Texas, of course )
Without taking any vote on the amend
ment, the Committee, on motion of Mr. Bay
lev, rose, and a message was received from
the Senate, announcing the death of Judge
Bennvbacker, a member of that body, who
died this morning, after an illness ot a week
or two, of, as 1 believe bis physicians term it,
an organic di-ease ol the liver.
Mr, McDowell, of V irginia, delivered an
unusually impressive and eloquent address —
the customary resolutions were adopted, and
then the House adjourned, to attend the fu
neral to-morrow at 12 o’clock, to that no
further business will be transacted in either
House until Thursday,

Read the following voluntary tribute to M LS
TAR’S BALSAM, from the Kimlerhook (N. Y.)
Sentinel, dated July 31, 1845:
‘•hops: nf\ er dies.*’
The extraordinary virtues of \\ istar’s Balsam
of Wild Cherry, in the cure of Pulmonary com
plaints, have been attested hy so many persons,
that he who doubts its eflicacy must he in truth a
very skeptic. A remarkable cure oft onsumptioii
has recently been effected by this medicine in the
town of Chatham, in this county, and which was
related to us by Dr. Herrick, an eminent physician
of that town, to whom we have permission to re
fer. A young lady, who had long labored under
an affection of the lungs, and who had been under
lliecureof several physicians without experien
cing any relief, was considered by her (fiends as
beyond the reach of medicine, and she was in
formed by her medical attendant that she must die.
All her own premonitions, also, pointed to the
grave. Fortunately, she was induced to send to
the Kinderhook Bookstore fora bottle ol \S IS
TAR’S BALSAM OF.WILD CII KRRV, as a last
resort tn her critical situation. Before its contents
were exhausted, the young lady experienced great
relief, and two more bottles weresuccessively pro
cured and administered. She is now happy in the
restoration of health, and blesses the day when
she first resorted to the use ot this healing Balsam.
[ From the Day State Be moo eat. Boston ,N 0r.4,1811. j
remedies.
There are so many medicines ol doubtful « har
acter advertised and puffed hy the newspapers at
the present time, that we should have shrunk I rom
the task we have now undertaken, were we not
most thoroughly convinced, front our own persona
knowledge, of the facts which we state below.
It is of “Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry” that
we would speak, and we speak advisediy. A ladv
of our acquaintance, whom we see every day , w as
a short time since, in what we thought a precari
ous, if not a dangerous slate of health. A cough
had settled on her lungs; her form seemed w asting
away; she was obliged to abandon her work, ami
we thought, not soon to resume it again. lor
about two months she has been taking W istar a
Balsam of Wild Cherry, and already has she so
far regained her health astu be able to resume her
labors.
This is but a single case, but is one, at least, in
which we cannot doubt the efficacy of the medi
cine.
