Iv tiik Sk.vatb— Michigan question. —The ft -debate on the admission of Michigan was re- I snmed on yesterday with increased interest, Mr. / Morris, who had the door, concluded hisru. t j marks, and was succeeded by Mr. Bayard on the same side. We believe it was the first lime that jA the Senator from Delaware had addressed the Senate, from this circumstance, as well ns from lyf, the power of his argument, he excited general at- H® lention. His speech was distinguished by its clear and forcible views of the doctrine of Slate I rights. One remark, which he repealed with T peculiar emphasis, deserves to be written in letters ft lers of gold, and hung up the house of every man Jr in This Union. “ Sir," said he, speaking of the charter of our institutions, *• the g-enl, the nidi- P cal difference between the Goreminent of the United Suites, rtrrti the Government of the States, is this —THE FEDERAL GOVERN MENT HAS NO POWERS HUT THO>E THAT ARE EXPRESSLY GRANTED BY THE CONSTITUTION; THE STATES HAVE ALL POWERS THAT ARE NOT EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY THAT IN STRUMENT.” This is the true Jeffersonian republican doctrine of the constitution, and we thank God that it is not yet entirely repudiated. We rejoice to see it again coming into credit. It is the doctrine of liberty —and when it perish -6 es, the liberty of the country will perish with it. Mr. Bayard took up this doctrine, and wielded it with much force and eloquence. With it he overthrew, at one blow, the federal and disorgan izing doctrines of the anarchists. He left them without tile shadow of support. He exposed their evil tendencies, their certain indnence in overthrowing the rights of the States, and e.on f* centraling all power in the hands of the Federal Government. He deprecated these consequences with great earnestness, and besought the Senate to pause before they sanctioned such dangerous and disorganizing principles. He was anxious to see Michigan admitted into the Union, and would immediately vote for it, if the obnoxious preamble, recognizing the anarchical doctrines of the day. were stricken out. Mr. Brown, of North Carolina, replied to Mr. Bayard, and defended, at length, the principles contained in the letter of Mr. Dallas. Me said he concurred in the conclusions of that letter, and so far defended its doctrines with great zeal. He then wont into a consideration of the alien and sedition laws, and other party topics, de- 1 nouneing them bitterly, although ids ass abate, j Mr. Buchanan, was siitmg near. He seemed to j dislike the name atfederalist, though the thing i itself seemed to he less unacceptable. Mr. Niles continued ihedehatM tin an half hour, j Mr. Crittenden lose and made a few remarks, He called upon the .Senate to observe that all were willing to admit Michigan. The preamble i of the hill—the first of the kind ho had seen— was of no importance as to the act of admission. It was introduced for some purpose, w hich he •>> should not trouble himself to examine. Being stricken out, there was no tlilliciiliy. Why, then, retain it t It is admitted it does not con tain all tiik facts —it was guilty of what the ; ; 7 lawyers call a suppressio veri. He was, thcre- S. fore, opposed to it —but not to the admission of the State—not to the substance and body of the act —but to the “iutetail” lacked to it. He took occasion to ridicule, with gio it justice, the clamorous professions of the anarchists of “ lo ve for the people". —devotion to the “Wrf of the people," See. &r. Ho pointed to the object of this, and exposed the motives which induced it. in the happiest manner. Mr. Fulton defended the preamble on the ground that it settled the question of disputed Jj boundary, and maintained the rUlit of the la ■■l convention, convened without authority of law, * to annul the acts of the/iVst, convened under the law. The question was then taken on the amend ment proposed by Mr. Morris, and eanied in the negative. Ayes 18, noes 28. Mr. Southard then moved to strike out the preamble, which was also negatived. Ayes 16, noes So. The hill was then reported to the Se nate without amendment. Mr. Calhoun then ollcreil an amendment pro posing to strike out the preamble, and to amend v the hill so as to divest it of iu obnoxious princi . pies. His amendment proposed the immediate 1 admission of the State into the Union. He ex pressed his so!;mn conviction that the hill, as it * stood, was pregnant with most dangerous conse quences ; and with the view of expressing his o pintons, lie moved an adjournment, as the hour was late. He wished to have an opportunity of explaining his views to-morrow. On ibis motion p Mr. Walker called tor the ayes and noes. The vote was taken, ami the motion was negatived. Ayes Id, noes 24. Mr. Calhoun then rose and said, “I see, si", that the majority have the power, and that they are determined to exercise it. I will not com plain. I consider the amendment as of great im portance, involving the tnost essscnlial princi ples. Hut J win not speak at this late hour, Dot them take their advantage. All that I can Itow do is, to ask to record my name on the a mendmenl.” Ho called for the ayes and noes. The question was then taken on the amendment, and it was decided in the negative. Ayes 12, noes 25. The question then being upon the en grossment firr a third reading, Mr. White arose and made some remarks ex planatory of his vote. He would voe for the admission, not for the reasons assigned by the preamble, or those who supported it; but be cause Congress iu June last had settled the boundaries, and to avoid future controversy. ,4 The vote being then taken, there appeared, ayes 4, noes 27; so the hill was engrossed for a third leading. CC/bVlr. Calhoun then moved that the Senate adjourn, and it was carried unanimously. Com mk.xt in oub next. ' It Tint Housf,.— <M". Wise's ItesoUt’ion. — An interesting debate took place on Tuesday, upon Mr. Wise’s resolution for an enquiry into Ilia Executive Departments. Mr. Pickens lir.-t 6 addressed the House in support of the resolu s tion. He commented with a very proper severi ty on the extraordinary positions taken by 'he opponents of the resolution, particularly, by Mr. Mann, of New York, and Mr. Pierce, of Rhode Island, The former gentleman had opposed the resolution us violating the provision of the con stitution which prohibited general search war rants! Mr. Wise’s resolution, Mr. Minn con Aonded, would bo in the nature of a general March warrant, and, therefore, came within the prohibition of the constitution. Mr. Pickens road the extract from the constitution, and show ed—what we should suppose ought to have been known by every man of common intelligence— that the provision was intended to protect private individuals against vexatious and oppressive pro ceedings on the part of Government. It was, said Mr. Pickens, the first time that tills provision of the constitution, and that feeling of repug nancy to general search warrants which has ex isted from the days of Sidney, was brought for ward to protect and conceal the corruptions of the Government against au inquiry by lira ser vants of the people. I Mr. P. forcibly alluded to the depth of the po litical and moral sycophancy of the times, when * 0 i n that Hall an argument so low, and far fetched, and weak, could be brought forward to protect , official corruption. He expressed his deep in dignation that the harriers of the constitution, destined to protect the people against theoppres- ! sions of the Government, are perverted to pro- I toet the Government against an inquiry into the , corruptions of ns officers. | With becoming indignation, Mr. Pickens re pudiated the principles advanced by Messrs, a | Pierce and Ripley, tout the Resolutions were an » | attack upon the Executive, and therefore ought r | not to Ire adopted hy the House. Mr. P. laid down, and enforced with great elo quence, the broad proposition, that a people no I longer possess liberty, however they may retain i the form of a constitution, when they permit vio e °* t ' le 5f eat a " l * fundamental provisions i- '* ,clr conslition—whether those violations arc • t *“ e rsul(s , traude, bribery, or corruption, or proceed troin the sword of a conqueror. In con u nec,io " " ill > il>i« point, Mr. Pickens dwelt tvtth t great force on the. gross interference on the part B ''l tlu ' Pr <*ident in the late Presidential election. , He recalled to the attention of the House the . n| any instances in which this became manifest, and particularly his direct interference in prevenl , ing the nomination of Judge While iu ‘ionites- 1 ' see in 1834. s Mr. Pickens staled distinctly to the House, i |i‘ at General Jackson had at that time used his 1 , influence to prevent the nomination of Judge 1 . White ; that lie had stated to the friends of tiie i , Judge that they must abandon the project; that 1 . it would interfere with the Baltimore Goiivcu- I . **rm that was to he held; that the convention ; must meet,and would nominate Mr. Van Boren ■ for President, and Judge White lor Vice Presi- i j dent, and that the Judge was young enough to > come in as Mr. Van Burcn’s successor at the end t . of his term of eight years! I i There was evident uneasiness in certain por- ( , tious of the House when these enunciations were | made hy Mr. Pickens, and tve have no doubt but j , their truth can he substantiated without doubt or { . question. The most material part of it has been, we believe, stated publicly hy Judge White him- 1 1 sell, at a public meeting in Tennessee; and none ! , w ill call in question the veracity of the Judge.— He stales that he was given to understand that 1 , such was the plan arranged, to ho carried out at 1 i the Convention, and only wanted his assent to it. [ to have the whole force of the Executive influ cnee arrayed in his favor, instead of being cm- 1 ployed In vituperating him. Mr, Dunlap attempted to make a diversion in ‘ favor of the President and the parly, and stated I that he had had a conversation with the Presi- ’■ dent, and that he, the Piesidcnt, denied all that 1 had been staled about his interference with the Presidential election. 1 This brought up Mr. Peyton, who said that as the contradiction put forth hy his colleague would i seem to call in question the truth of the state ments he had made before the House, he should v like to put a few questions to him, and he thought | ; he could satisfy the House that the contradiction i amounted to little or nothing. Mr. Peyton then r began to put .some questions to Mr. Dunlap, who G rose and said that he should refuse to he catochis- | ed hy his colleague. This gave Mr. Peyton a i, fair opportunity, and we must say that ho made u t good use of it. He federated, one by one, the I statements ho had made on a firmer day, and r I wished to know, as he made each one, whether s | the denial of the President was to he considered v as extended to that fact, lie should infer, he i said, as his colleague refused to he catechized in 1 relation to the matter, that it did not. Mr. Pey- ( ton went on to show that there was no denial, t and could be none, of the far greater part of the facts stated by him, which he asserted were fi known and believed by persons of all parlies in v Tennessee, ami denied by none, Mr. Peyton a commented w ith due severity upon the carriers of 1] news from the Halls of Congress to the sick bed [ . of tie President, at the lime when the sympathy 0 of iite House was attempted to be excited by rep- t resenting him as being perhaps on his dying t j bed. ' _ f ! Mr. Wise’* resolution came up again yester- t I day, and Mr. Robertson addressed the House at t ■ | length in support of the resolutions,. He placed ; | iu a strong and ludicrous attitude the contradic- r j turns and inconsistencies of the opponents of the f I resolutions. There was Mr. Pierce, of Rhode j Island who would not vote for the resolution he- J i cause it did nut, to use his own metaphor, take I the hull by the ahorns, and attack the President, [ !at once and openly ; and there was General Rip- [ ley who opposed it because it did attack him.— , Hero was one gentleman, Mr. Mann, of New r York, refusing the enquiry because it was in the s nature of a general search 'warrant, which was . prohibited hy the constitution ; and another, (Mr. ( Pierce,) opposing it because there were already standing committees of the House, whose liusi- ; ness and duty it was to make the very inquiries l sought for in the resolution. The latter gentle- v man had moreover placed himsell in the very ex- i traordin try attitude of opposing the resolution s because the inquiry would he an indecent attack ( on the Executive, and contending at the same i time that there already existed committees whose ; appropriate duly it was to do the very thing j sought for by the resolution. When Mr. Robert- | son finished, the House adjourned without com- [ • ing to a vole. a Ges. Jackson i.v Ten ness ms.—Our Wash- 1 ington correspondent, in describing the speech of Mr. Peyton, of Tennessee, in Congress, gives the [i following as one of its parts : I -Mr. Speaker—When Andrew Jackson was [. in Tennessee, surrounded by his friends, who e were carrying him from post to post, he was ) made to denounce all his former associates. His t new allies exhibited him in all places and upon ti all occasions. At the lime when, in Joncsho- ] rough. Tcnn., the people demanded the Presi- ti dent’s opinions of Reuben M. Whitney —“What b do you think of him, General 1 ” was the quos- 0 tion pul to him on one occasion: “He’s a patri- si nl, sirs”—“an able man”—“an abused officer.” p (Peyton imitated the voice and manners of the p President to the life.) “And what do you think b of Wise 1” was the question ofanother upon such p occasions, “//a is a liar, sirs.'. And what oi i| ' Bailie Peyton 1” would he the question ofa third. || “He's a common* liar,gentlemen —r tgreater liar h 1 than Bull.” “Such,” said Mr. Peyton, “is the a ' ' language of the Executive —language which I i I can prove to he his, if any man dare deny it.” a Mr. Peyton, in speaking of Mr. Van Buren’s c promises to walk in the footsteps of Gen. Jack- r son. says— . u “General Jackson has made some strides, o which for Mr. Van Burnt to attempt to follow e would ho like a mouse aiming to tread in the steps d ' of an elephant in ploughed ground. He would n ’ run himself down, an Jbe found panting between r J his tracks.” a 1 i From the National Intelligencer, of 31st Dec. 1 . We some days ago adverted to the fact of the 1 discovery that several of the Electors ol Presi- ' ; dent anil Vico President wete disqualified for the I ' exercise of that trust, by reason of their being 1 j office-holders under the United States, and that ‘ ’ the votes of such Electors were of course null ® and void. About the same time, the same ground I was taken hy the Boston Advocate, (a leading 1 . supporter of the Administration.) in regard to • I one of the Electors for M*i«ac*bu«*tfi, vv ' lo » n 1 was nlledged, held the office of Postmaster, and ■ . i was of course disqualified. So that both political I parties occupy on this question the name ground. , More recently, this matter has assumed a much i ' graver aspe t, from the ground taken hy the Al bany Advertiser, that n chad vole vitiates the ' entire Electoral vote of the College of winch .1 is a pm. If this be the true construction of toe ’ Constitution, the reader will of course pcrce.ve . . at ones to what inportant consequence it will J f |P Let the Albany Advertiser, however, speak for ' itself. We copy the following paragraph from ' the number of that journal which reached us yes , t^rdny: uif i| lß fi-t that the choice of one or more con ; s itutionally inclig.blo candidates renders the . | -whole ofa Stale Elector H Ticket null and void, , the vote of New York will not be the only vole ’' rejeetc I by Congress. According to ,tho Blue ] Book, one of the Electors in New Hampshire, two in Vitgmia, and four in Pennsylvania, were constitutionally ineligible, from the tact of their holding office under the General Government. If the positions of parlies were change, the Van Buren men in Congress would soon have up the constitutional question for examination, and dem onstrate to their own entire satisfaction, that the voles oj the Colleges of the fair States, Virgin ia, JVew Hampshire, and ,Xew I ork,: were illegal, and consequently could not he counted. Now, they would have no objec tions to hush the matter up.” It is amusing to sen the laboring efforts ( J tiie official scribbles lor lint Globe to write, up certain gentlemen who have been beaten down in argument in Congress. At one time we see Mr. Senator Hubbard flon-isliing in the columns of the Government paper us the conqueror of Daniel VVubsteh! At an other, Mr. Senator Buchanan is represented as de ling tremendous blows, right nml tell and utterly ‘•demolishing—an edifice of corn cobs!” while John C. Calhoun :s compared to a squirrel made sick by a shot from the gigantic Pennsylvaian ! I Then, to add to the absurdity of the sconce, and render the liinnor more poignant, we have those mighty men in political warfare, Messrs. Brown and Niles, triumphing over Folly & Ig norance represented in the persons of Messrs. Bayard ami Davis, and carrying tlmir vie tenons arms against Federalism—embodied in whom thu official writers do not condes cend to say. We cannot however, reconcile these rejoicings at the victory of Broun and Nelis over Federalism, wi h the encomiastic fervor of their language towards Mr. Buchan an. We do not think that even official im pudence will go so far as to deny Dial J.imvs Buchanan is a Federalist of the most rabid type. Tii nt lie declared, that if a drop of de mocratic blood circulate! in Ins body, he would open Ins veins to give it escape, That he has in a public oration liurlaj the heaviest maledictions against the democratic party, as “demagogues opposed to our admirable form of government, and marked hy dark and ma lignant passions.” And that he denounced Thomas Jefferson as thu hired agent of Bonit part. DREADFUL SHIPWRECK.—LOSS OF ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT LIVES. Nbav Yo nc, January 5. It is with sorrow and shame, says tnu Courier, we again lake up the pen to record the particu lars of the wreck of another vessel destined to this purl, when almost within sight of it; sor row at the immense loss of life with with h thu event has been accompanied, and Nha.no that our port regulations arc insufficient to guide the mariner to ins haven, when he has reached our coast. The information wc give below has been de rived hy our reporter from the Captain of the shipwrecked vessel, and from persons on the spot where thu ship came on shore. He reached town from the scene of the disaster at an early hour lids morning, having been despatched hy us thither, as soon as the news of thu hoi rid cu tastiophu reached us. The barque Mexico, Capt. Winslow, sailed from Liverpool on the 25th of October last, ha ving on bord a crew consisting of twelve men and one hundred and four passengers, in all one hundred and sixteen souls. She made the High lans lights on Saturday night last at 11 o'clock, and on Sunday morning was off the liar, with thirty or more squareriged vessels, ull havitm sia. mils flying fur pilots, hut not a pilot was there m sight. The Mexico continued standing oil' and on ihc Hook till midnight, and at dark site and tiie whole fleet of ships displayed lanterns from their yards for pilots. Still no pilot eumc. At | midnight the wind increased to a violent gale from the norlhvveal, the barque was no longer able to hold to windward, and was blown off a distance of some fitly miles. At this time, six of the crew wmre badly trust bitten, and the cap tain, male, and two seamen were all that were left able lu hand and reel the sails. On Monday morning at i 1 o’clock s'anding in shore, they made the southern end of the woodlands, when she was wore round and headed to the north, un der a close reefed main lop-sail, reefed fore-sail, two reefed try-sail and sere-stay rails. At four o’clock the next morning, the mate look a cast of the led and reported to (.apt. Winslow that ho had fifteen fathoms water. Supposing trout the soundings, as laid down on iho chart, that with this depth of wuier, he could still stand on two hours longer with safety—thu Captain gave order to that effect, and was the more induced to do it as the crew were in so dis abled a state & the weather au intensely cold, that it was impossible foi any one to remain on deck lunger than half an hour at a tine. The event has shown that tbeinlormation given by the mate as to the depth of water was inconoel, his error probably arose from the lead line being frozen stiff at the time it was cast. Fifteen minutes afterwards the ship struck iho SioUoin, twenty-six miles east of tt.imly Hook at Hempstead beach, and not more than a cable’s length from the shore. The scene that ensued onhoaid.we leave to the reader’s imagination. For an hot. rand three quarters she continued thumping heavily without making any water, the sea however breaking continually over her. Her rudder was now knocked till - , and the Cap tain ordered the mainmast to ho eul away. Trio boats were then cleared, the long boat hoisted out, and veered away under her hows with a stout hawser, for the purpose of tilling it with passengers, letiiug it drift within reach of Iho people who crowded the beach, then hauling her back again, and thus saving thu unfortunate peo ple on hoard, but this intention was frustrated by Ihe parting of the hawser, which snapped hko a Ihtead as soon as the boat was exposed to thu heaving surf. The yawl was next got alongside, and strove to pieces almost instantly. At 7 o’clock the same morning, the ship bilged and filled with water. Orders following Irom the captain to cut away the foremast; and that eve ry soul on board should come on dock. In in e'xprrssible agony they thus remained until fi.ur o’clock in the alieruoon, when a host was launch ed from the bca;h, and succeeded in getting un der iho bowsprit of the wreck.—This boat look off rapt. Winslow and 7 men, and succeeded in reaching the shore nhit them in satiny.—The attempt however was attended with such immi nent danger, that none could ho induced to re peat it. And now the horrors of the scene were mdiscrihable. Already had iho guttering* of the unhappy beings been such us to surpass hel el. From the moment of the disaster, they laid hung round die Captain, covered wit t their blankets thick set with ice, imploring his assistance, and asking if hope was still left to them.— When they perceive that no fuiliter help came from the land, their piercing shrieks were dislinc ly hoard at a considerable distance, and continued through ths night until they one by one perished, ’i lie next morning the bodies of many ot iho unhap py creatures wcie seen lashed to dillerent pans of the wreck, embedded in ice. Kone.it is be lieved, were drowned, but all frozen to death. Os the one hundred and four passengers, two- ' ‘birds were women end children. It is hut justice to the people on shore to say, that every thing which human beings could ac complish to save the unfortunates, was done that their means permitted, i lie only boat which hoarded the vessel was hauled a distance ot ten miles and was manned hy an old man and six others, lour or five of whom vvcic the old man’s sous and grandsons. For thirty-five years he has | been living on the sea shore, during whi. h he hav rendered assistance to numerous wrecks, ami never before had he or his comrades shrunk bom the surf; but in addition to its violence on the] present occasion, such was the extreme cold that a second attempt to rescue was more than limy I dared to venture; it would have inevitably proved c utal to them. r THE PILOTS! THE PILOTS!! f The ship at present lies vvitit her starboard side n 1 about four feet under water, her mizen mast e standing. Besides luting bilged, her upper vvotks ■ have so far parted froth ihu trull us to allow the c cargo to wash out. The Mexico was a substantial eastern built v vessel of 280 tons, II years old, owned by Mr. t Samuel Broom of this ciiy. She is insured by . the Commonwealth office of Boston for §BOOO. Tiie freight is insmed by the State Marine of this city. Tho Atlantic office is also on part o , her cargo. ' The cargo consisted of • 200 tons bur port, 1 100 do coal, 200 do cmlifs. 1 All consigned to Samuel Thompson. 5 Sixteen ol the bodies Ltd drifted ashoto when - our reporter lull the beach, all frozen It was ox- I peeled tho remainder wuuld drift ashoto during I the night, the wind and current setting stiongly - in shore. I When off the Hook, the Mexico, besides her J signal lor a pilot, had her flag Hying Union down, > as a signal of distress in consequence of the Iro-l r bitten slate ol tho crew ami the shortness of pro ; visions. She spoke on Sunday the Montreal, , packet ship, from the captain ot which vessel we . Icarhed she was below, and reported her arrival in consequence yesterday morning. Os tho licet of thirty vessels that were off the I Hook in company with the Mexico on Sunday, wailing pilots, not more than one half have as yet , arrived. I The unfortunate passengers were nf a very superior class, and had considerable properly with them. On the bodies which drilled ashore, gold to some amount was found. ' The wreck master, Mr. James Smith, the ’ Coroner, Mr. Beagen, agent of the Insurance Companies and a guard of picked men, arc on tile ' beach to prevent pillage. We forbear further comment, as tho day np - preaches, and it is necessary that wo should go to t press. 1 Soon after she struck, says the Mercantile i Advertiser, tho fires were extinguished by the water, which made a complete breach over the I vessel; and such ns did not reach the shore, .eight only succeeding in this effoil,) perished from colil, Cap'ain Winslow, we learn, swam on shore with Master Broom, the son of the consignee, in 1 his arms. Here, within two hours' ride of this groat city, within sight of Pilot ground, in fair winter weather, is another vessel stranded on our coast, and upwards ol nno hundred lives losl. ' 'The beach, says the New York Herald, is strewn ( with the bodies of the dead—bruised, blackened and mangled—a spectacle 100 horrible for con , templuiion. Pity weeps—humanity bleeds—iu dignalion cries aloud over tire murdered victims , of it system revolting and insufferable. ‘Horrible! horrible I most horrible !” 'l uesdii)' Kv cuing, ami. 10. A lire occurred at New Orleans, on the 2nd instant, which consumed thu office of the New Orleans Standard. Nothing was saved. Tho Tallahasso Watchman of 4th of January, say that Gen. Just e was at Tampa Bay on the 22d ol December, and would march against the Indians as soon as possible. Tho Tennessee Brigade had sailed lor New Orleans, where they were to be nmstere I out of service. HANDSOME) COMTI JM i.IVT !

JlUKgrovs, Committee i [FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT] WASHINGTON CITY, ) I N. 7th, 1836. 5 The mi si impoitant incident of this week was . the final passage though the Senate of the bill , providing fur tiie admission of Michigan. This : act was consummated on Thursday afier a long ami most animated discussion. Those who have [ most stiongly opposed this bill have no objection lu receiving lha now State into tho Union, but are adverse to the unconstitutional and revolution, ary principles and doctrines on which the bill is 1 founded, and which have been openly proclaimed and supported by several members of the Admin isttation parly. They have shown in the dear est manner that the Convention of December did not represent one third of the legal voters — that it was not called hy tho constiloted authoiity —that it was a mere Parly Caucus, got up foi parly purposes, and had no right at ull to speak in the name of the State of Michigan, and annuli tho proceedings of another Convention (hat had been legally created, and possessed full power lo act for the people of that Slate. They denounc ed in unmeasured terms the principles contended for by the supporters of the bill that tho greater number have the right, at any time to overthrow the political organization under which they live. Mr. Calhoun declared that in a well regulated state of society, a body of men who met and look the course pursued hy the Constitution, might hn criminally indicted and punished : were such attempted in H. Carolina, the actors would a ion have been taught their duly to the Government. The present year, liu caid. was a thing mnto remarkable than any other fur innovation, and wide departure from thu spirit of our institutions, ft muiked the period of the ascendancy of the Caucus .System;—the Caucus whoso edicts su persede the law and the constitution, —for tho plain reasons that men arc better rewarded for obeying them, than they arc for complying with the requisitions of law. Mr. Calhoun and Mr. Prest 'il spoke with great eloquence of the conse quences which will How from a prevalence of these doctrines. Wo ore rapidly approaching the catastrophe indeed, if (hey shall he maintain ed.—Recognize them, ami there will ho but out step to tho overthrow of our institutions. The j time is coming, and now is, when all men must , prepare to take their sides ns CiuimiMmiiuu-»» Destructives. No stale can long stand out against such principles. What piuleetion can there be for tho minority if it is admitted that the establish ed constitution may ho thrown aside without any forms of law. Tho Michigan Bill has been reported lo the House, and alter being read was postponed to Tuesday next. An attempt was made to make it the special order for that day, but it failed. ’The debate on the Ttcasmy Circular was rc . J l newed in tho Senate yesterday. Mr. Southard resumed his argument, which was interrupted by 1 the parly’s determination to carry the Michigan question in spite of every thing, and demonstrated 1 in the clearest and most forcible, manner the illo- t galily and inexpediency ofthc measure. There “ was a brief Executive session afterwards, and among the appointments conliimed was that of Major Gates to his rank in the army. The debate on Mr. Wise’s icsolution was re- [ sumed on Thursday, and I send you a sketch of i the proceedings thereon in anot ter form, Yester- I day and to-day have been spent hy the House in i private bills. The hill mailing compensation in !l iho Moore and Letcher case to both the parlies wa- passed. We have been looking far Panta Anna for p some days, but as lie lias boon detained a short i time at Lexington, Ky. hy suvcro indisposition, *' he may not arrive till Iho middle of next week, v The President’s health is improving.
