The law by which the Cemr 1 Bank was cres
ted, deioimini's ihe extent ol the aulhuriiy of its

' i powers co ii foiled by it upon the dircciors lessen l
cd or itieica-ed, try a resolution of the legislature.
The law in pointing out the duties of the di
| rector* of the Central Hank, us special agents of I
' iho Hum. grunts them no power to borrow mo- |

lent with ihe principles of logislai on, lo attempt I
I by resolution to give litem that authority.
' By the Oonsitliri m. all bills for raising reve

i With due rc-pcct for the two houses, it appears
I lo rue that the legislature cannot, iu this form,
e raise and appropriate money, and not having ,hc
power tl-cll, n cannot confer it upon the Bunk.
The possession amt management of three mil

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4, 1837.
This day it the beginning *f the fn*t regular
session es the 261 h Congress. Kefore the arri
val of thv Southern Steamboat*, and the Rail
Road cara laat night, it was apprehended that a
qiiarum would not be jireaem in either Houaa —
fur at dinner lima yealerday there were not more
than forty membera in the city. But the boat
and the enta brought nearly a quorum; and I
waa asloniahed on entering the two Legislative
Hall*, to day, to find ao many in attendance.
From your State in the Hou«e, I recognised
Col, Dawson, whose talents, and character arc
well fitted to add to the interest with which his
position as the real rupiosrnlahve of the feelings,
wishes, opinions and determinations of Georgia,
is regarded,—l also observed Messrs. Tewna.
Granlland, and Dr. . ■- from your Slate, and
(hero may have been othsrs. The opposition
members were in high spirits; and ike congraiu
luiions which passed between the Whigs from
every quarter, on the late glorious triumph* o|
the opponents of misrule, were deep and cuidial.
Mr. Speaker Poi.ic look the Chair at 12 o’-
clock, and called the members to order. The
Clerk (Mr. Franklin) then called the roil; and
one iiuudrud and thirty four members answered
to thoii names. A message was sent to the Sen.
ntc informing them that the House hud assem
bled, &c. dec. (the usual form ) A committee
was appointed to join the committee appointed
hy Iho S. nate, to wait on the Piesidenl, and in
form him that both Houses had assembled, and
were ready to receive any communication he
might have to make. The usual resolution for
providing iho members with newspspers wa*
adopted.
Mr. Underwood offered twa resolutions, which
he on the table one day, and will ho mors partic.
daily detailed to-morrow —the object of one wa
to amend the rule* of the House—and of the other
to obtain from the Secretary of War, inlorination
respec ing all the orders and ins ruction* given
to the commanding General in Florida, the mea
sures adopted tor raising volunteers, employing
Ineudly Indians, &c. Ac.
Au important report from live Comptroller of
the Treasury was presented by the Speaker; hu
it was nut read, snd the par ieulars of the cun.
tents cannot he known until lomorrow.
That indefatigable member, Mr. W hittlesey of
Ohio, offered a resolution for the appointment of
ill* Standing Committees; the consideration <>t
which ho moved should be taken up lumonow.—
Out previous question Cushman objected to tins,
and wished to put oil the appointment nil Thurs
day. Thi* move called out Mr. Whittlesey, who
gave the House a sensible lecture on the impio.
priely of any postponement or delay, and any loss
of time, when there wore 700 or 800 hills Irum
the last session undisposed of. After some con
ver.auon, it was agreed to lake up the subject for
further considers ion tomorrow.
Nothing else of importance was done, and iho
House adjourned till to-morrow at 12 o’clock,
which is iho hour appointed for meeting mm
•therwise ordered.
in the Senate, Mr. Vice Piesidenl Johnson to k
the Chair at 12 o’clock, and the Secretary (An
bury Dickens, Esq,.) colled the roll. Thirty fou r
Senators answered to their nsmes. The custo
mary resolutions fur sending a message lo the
other louse, appointing a committee lo wgjt o.;
the President, and for supplying the Senators
with newspapers, were successively taken up and
adopted,and the Senate then adjourned.
The Joint Committee appoimed lo wait on tlte
President of the United Stales arc, Messrs
Knight of K I. ( and Wright of N. V., from the |
Senate, end Messrs. GruiiiUnd of Ga., Mulen
i burg of Pa. and Whittlesey of Ohio.
I had not an opportunity in consequence of
being in the other House, us learning what Sen
i alora from the South were present, or whether
Ml, Lutnpkni was in attendance. The Western
Senators nave pome oil, 111 high spirits; and I
heard ona us iho most distn'igu.sheJ among ilium
say, that the whole West was illuminstru for its
recent glorious victories of the opponent* us tho
spoils men. Mr. Clay is iu health and spirits
mors vigorous than I have known him to enjoy
for years past. As usual, he has a smile and cur
dial shako of the hand for all who gieet bint;
and at tho sight us an old friend, his eye sparkles,
and his voice gushes out like one of hit own
Kentucky mountain streams.
The President's Message will bo delivered to
morrow. It is understood, that ho will ••bertist" '
