Mr. UNDERWOOD who was entitled to thr floor, (poke briefly in explanation of some formei remarks, ami in order to arrest the debate which be said had been ut.ncccsariily protracted be moved the previous question ; lost. Mr. UNDERWOOD said, as it was the man ifest disposition of the House to hesr more on the subject, he would resume his remarks. He was confident that the more the House considered the question, the stronger would be their convic tion of the necessity ot adopting the resolution. The information would throw much ligat upon the mileage bill, which, in a few days would be come the subject of consideration. He went to apeak in opposition to the amendments, as calcu lated to embarrass the resolution, and as asserting untenable doctrines. Ho thought lha practice of members of Congress attending to cases before the Supreme Court ought to be sanctioned and encouraged rather than suppressed. It was a prac tice relating to theJSutcs and the people ot the States. Mr. BELL moved that the resolution and a naen Intents be laid on the table ; agreed to with out a courts. FREEDOM OF ELECTIONS. Mr. BELL rose in pursuance ot previous no tice, to olfer a motion of leave to introduce u bill to secure the freedom ol elections. Mr. VAN DBRPOOL asked if the motion for leave was dcbatcablc. Tito Speaker said it was. Mr. BELL requested bis bill to bo read from tire Chair, an objection was made but the motion was agreed to. Tito bill was then read. Mr. BELL said he had no puipose of party to serve in the introduction of this bill. He wished solemnly to appeal to I lisa House and to t ;c coun try for the correction of the evils which tho Pre amble of the bill set forth. He was aware of the recpousibility he had assumed in olll’iiiig u bill implying charges of such grave character, and hero be would state that be pledged himself upon his honor to prove and maintain betore any jury in this counity all and each of Ibu charges ex pressed or implied in tho Preamble, moreover he challenged gentlemen to contradict any one of those charges. He was ready now to go into the investigation. He knew the responsibility which must attach to any gentleman who undertook to prove such charges; the little countenance he would gel from sny quarter, and the intrinsic difficulty ol obtain ing positive proof.—But, though impressed with all those convictions, ho reaffirmed mid reasserted the truth of all his allegations. He would bring forwoid tint highest evidence of which the nature of the case would admit, to sustain charges ol the corrupt Interference on the part of the officers of tho Fedoiol Government in tho late elections, pending the Presidential canvass. Mr. VANDERPOBL moved that the order of the day be taken up; agreed to. Front tho N. Y. Commercial Adver tser. THREE DAYS LATER FROM ENGLAND. By the packet ship Pennsylvania,(’apt.

Consols for ac count opened tltis morning at 88], rose to 89], at which considerable purchases were made; but subsequently the market receded to 88] 89, leav ing olfat these quotations. The business in mo ney stock was equal to that in lime bargains—re duced annuities improving to 88, and the three And a half per cents, to 96j.

It being now pretty well ascertained that the discussiuiis which have been in pi ogress in the bank parlour for some days past, upon the point wf completing the arrangements consequent upon Accommodation to a large banking establishment in the country, have been brought to a conclusion, there are no grounds for tho apprehension still expressed in some quarters, of a renewal of the demand for money here or in the manufacturing districts. The knowledge of tho fact that the Dank of England at their meeting to-day have completed the arrangements gave satisfaction in tho city, and it had sonic slight influence upon tho value of slock. A greater degree of confidence was apparent among the commercial interests on change this afternoon, but wo cannot quote any material increase in the demand for goods.

Certain it is that the war is now again confined within the limits of Navarre, and the 1j diiisions of Alaix, Narvaez, and 8.1 n Miguel would 0 seem to he drawing together in quaiter.

The principal subject before the Senate this >. week, has liccn the Bill to restrict the sales of t- public lands to sc.ua! settlers and in limited qusn lilies. The debate has now continued for five or six Jays, and at times was quite interesting. 5 [ The disclosures which have been made of the frauds and corruptions that have occurred in the 0 disposal of the lands would astonish those not conversant with the subject. The public domain u it scents has been regarded as a goose which every is man has a right to pluck. It has been made •e abundantly manifest in the course of the debate ™ that the bill now in question cannot do anything ,| towards the prevention of these frauds, and will r. be also utterly inefficacious as a measure for liini *. ling the sales to actual settlers. It was intro- dured in a shape which clearly demonstrated the . entire unfitness of Mr. Walker for the post be e occupies at the head of the Committee on Public 8 Lands. His own friends were ashamed of it; ' and each one has given a rap with his hammer to the crude and unseemly mass, until scarcely s any appearance remains of the form in which i l '' was originally presented. The graduation clause j offered by Mr. Tipton as an amendment, the es- B feet of which was to reduce tho price of all lands which had been in the market ton years to one * dollar per acre, and of those which had been in maikct fifteen years to twenty-five cents per acre ( r was rejected yesterday by a vole of 20 to 18. A proposition made yesterday by Mr. Morris, to strike out the entire section which gives pre r eruptive rights to actual settlers created a very ani | mated and exciting discussion : Mr, Clay sup ported it in a speech of great force of argument f and eloquence. Some of the members from the 1 newer stales were fiery and boisterous in thoi r opposition, particularly Mr. Denton, and Mr Walker, the latter of whom declared that if both the preemption clause and the graduation clause should be struck out, ho would abandon the bil at Once. Mi. Morris will address tho Senate to-day in behalf of his motion. Tho great speech of the week was that of Mr. Ewing of Ohio, commenced on Monday and ended yesterday. Ho spoke with his accustomed clearness and force on the general subject; and was both attractive and instructive. lie com mented with just severity on the undigested and unfinished character ol the bill, and showed B would be utterly impossible hy its provisions to accomplish the objects the majority affected to have in view. The Committee of Finance have reported on the petition from the Ncw-York Board of Trade, praying for the establishment of a National Bank’ and n resolution declaring that the prayer of tho petitioners ought not to bo granted. The Com mittee of Ways and Means in the House, have made a similar report. But for all that Van Huron will scarcely bo warm in his seat as Chief Magistrate, before his satrlites will take steps for the creating of a National Bank, to bo placed in the city of Now-York. Mark the prediction ! Before closing my notice of the Senate's pro' ceedings, I must inform you (hut the reports in circulation about the repeal of the Treasury Order hy the President, are quite fallacious and unfound ed. Mr. Walker’s declaration in his speech last week, that it would be revoked was mere chaff. There is a bill before the Senate embracing the proposition offered by Mr. Hives, as an amend ment to the resolution of Mr. Ewing, for rcceiv' ing the older; but tho parly will not permit it to be taken up, and it will bo postponed and delayed until il is 100 late for the action of the other J louse at tho present Session. The repeal of this ini quitous measure is reserved as a feather in the cap of the coming administration. It will not b c put in the power of General Jackson cither to approve ol or veto it. In the House on Monday more than two hours wore occupied by Mr. Adams, in arguing ques ions of order, ami presenting Abolition petitions, of which he produced thirty. They were laid on tire table without being road, referred, or ordered to be printed, under the order of the House in lire adoption of Mr. Hawes's resolution which is an exact transcript of tho resolution of Mr. Pinckney; adopted at the last Sassion. Tire sign ors of one of those petitions endeavoured to evade the operation of this resolution by altering the form of tneir document. They prayed Congress to extend the protection given by tho laws, and the rights secured by the declaration of independ ence, to all the inhabitants of the District of Co lumbia. Mr. Adams said this did not contain one word about slavery and therefore did not come within tho rule. But the chair decided that the order of the House applied to this paper and on appeal by Mr. Adams, tho decision was sustained by an overwhelming majority. Petitions for Abolition were presented from va rious other states; and one Memorial was offered hy Mr. Pierce of N. 11., from a dozen or two of repentant Abolitionists who had signed abolition petitions last year, and who now wished to unsay all they had then said. Tito Bill for admission of Michigan into the Union, was the special order of yesterday. Mr. Vanderpool made a long and elaborate harangue in elucidation of tho provisions ot the measure, and in defence of the principles proclaimed by its advocates in both Houses—principles revolution ary and destructive of tho frame of every establish ed Government —the principles that a body of men may assemble and legally and constitution ally, do acts in direct and flagrant violation of law and the provisions of the Constitution! Mr. Slorer replied to him in a well reasoned and spirited speech, in opposition to all those un constitutional views and doctrines. Mr. Toney supported Ihc measure in its whole length and bieadth. Mr. Haws then moved tho previous question—but just at this point on motion of Mr. i Briggs, the Ilottso adjourned. Mr. Mann’s motion was the first thing in order to-day and tho final vote being taken the Bill was passed. It only wants the signature of tire Presi dent which it will promptly receive, and Michi gan will be doubtless admitted into the Union this day. Whitney appeared before tho Committee on his case on Monday, and asked four days more which was granted to him by a party vote. His excuse is that bis Counsel is si ck ?. Mr. AVise’s Committee on the conduct of tho Executive Departments have met, and Mr. Wise proposed some enquiries » hich he wished to make into the amount of patronage given by these De partments to the public press. The Committee by a party vote laid bis proposition on the table. Mr. Pearce insisted ho should make spccifiic alio- I gallons. In fact the Committee was selected on j the principle of preventing a fair, free and compre j Uensivc examination and they arc obeying or t ders, doubtless in throwing every obstacle in Mr. j Wise’s way to retard and embarass him. He will j it is believed, report the facts to the House, unless 1 hey alter their conduct, PRESENTMENTS or rutGRANDJURY • Ist. We, the Grand Jury of Richmond Court for the third week of the January Term of 183 do present the vice of Gambling as increasing 1 lliia County, instead of being diminished unite the action of our laws. It is becoming call more open and shameless in the evidence ut i.s existence, and presents attractions to the young and thoughtless, that are- irresistible, no persons in the community appearing to possess such elegant leisure, or sporting greater style in dress and equippage. As the great harvest o) gaming occurs at the period of Annual Races, the Jury fear that its further tolerance on the race ground mill lead to evils greater than the ex pected benefits of the Turf. 2nd. We also present the great numhei of Re tail Grog Shops, so numerous as to create a sus picion, that many persons ate so engaged without legal authority, and induce the Jury to request, that those entrusted with the power, will use in . c reased vigilance in this matter. 3rd. Wc present the state of our Roads as un becoming a community so alive to public im provement, and so interested in having all Us highways perfectly adapted to answer their ob ject. The three great Market roads leading to and from the City, the one running Lust to the Sand Bar Ferry, the one North and the other South, with their respective branches, requite im mediate attention, not through their whole extent, hut at particular points, which are almost impas sible. The Sand Bar Ferry road ut different pla ces, where there can be no turn outs, demands immediate repairs. On this road, from the breaking of a daiipuhcro is danger of frequent delay to the public Mail and Market vehicles, from high water. The Jury would recommend the reconstruction of this dam or hank, directly in the road, thus making it level, in which opera tion, Proprietors of laud below it might be indu ced to aid the county. This road torms the great thorough-fare also for public promenade, and should not raise a blush in the citizen’s cheek while escorting respectable strangers round the City. 4th. Such is the situation of the fold of Big Spirit ( reck on the Waynesboro’ Road, imme diately below John McDades Mill, and also ol the two Bridges and Causeway near the same place, that, some of the citizens having sustained the loss and damage of property, and danger of their lives, the Grand Jury tceomme'nd that the Jus tices of the Inferior Court, cause a good Bridge to be creeled over said Ford and the Bridges and Causeway aforesaid to be propeily repaired. In parting with the Judge and Attorney Gen eral, we cannot refrain from expressing our ap probation of their official conduct, and thank them, particularly for their courtesy to the Jury. We also request that these Presentments be published iu the Papers of the City. WILLIAM P. RATH BONE, Foreman. R. J. Melos, Wji.Hocsi.ei, Bam eu i. Bones, Geo. A. To in; nett, A. I. Huntington, N. K.
