The Jiltaek on the Malays.—Tho Presi dent of the United Slates, in his Message, at Ihe opening of the present session of Con gress, informed them that he had dispatched “ a frigate with orders to require immediate satisfaction, nnd indemnity to the sufferers,” of the Malays, who were concerned in the murder of tho crew of tho ship Friendship, of- Salem, Mass. Tho Frigate was the Poto mac, Capt. Downes ; and on the 6th of Feb ruary lasj, 300 men from the frigate, under ihe command of Lieut. Shrulirick, effected a landing about a mile above Quallah Button, isle Sumatra, and in less than three hours three Ions wero carried, nnd from eighty to one hundred natives killed by tlio assailing parties, with the loss of two men and several wounded. The Malays were considered os a nation of Pirates, and therefore not entitled to the ordinary preliminaries of civilized warfare. And it is on this ground that the attack is jus tified. It is generally believed thnt Russia, Austria nnd Prussia, have expressed their regret at not being uble to unite Portugal with Spain, according to tho long-cherished wish of the Intler.

The Senate was unable lopaso Iho Bank bill by a constitutional majority, and it rests for the present beneath tho witiicring influence of old Hickory’s VI. l O, and there mpy it remain forever, is, or ought to be, the prayer of every friend to the con- stitotion .l liberties of his country. This civil victory obtained over the enemies of that glorious chart by tho old Hero, throws into the shade even Ihe lame of bis grcalesl military achievements. Would we could thus congratulate the country and its friinds, on a more auspicious settlement of the ngi- lating question of the Tariff. That something howev er, has been obtained by Ihc South—and something of import ante too—wc cannot but believe. The first step has biter, taken towards ihe accomplishment of a great revolution—tire overthrow ofan odious system, at war both with Ihc spirit and the teller of Ihc consti tution, and Ihc interests of a large portion of the Ame rican people. Let the South improve this victory by husbanding tier resources—by recruiting her ranks and by drilling them for ihe onset when the proper op portunity of attack is again presented, and not madly expend her strength and risk her glory and happiness, hy rushing into unnecessary and hazardoua emprises. The floor of Congress is tire field where a great battlo has been fought and won, and the floor of Congress is still the field (if she pursue*a prudent course) where another and another triumph will add laurel to laurel, until enfranchised and regenerated, ahe shall again sit down quietly in the shade of her palmetto and cotton plant, and bask in th* light of their glory.
