"It is well known to Congress, that the polity,;

strenuously ionceitoil and dented. The favorers
of these regulations may' have thought that the
opposition woui'i become less violent, as lime
would render the system mere familiar to the peo
ple. But if such expectatidns ever were enter
tained. itis time they shultld bo abandoned. . The
progress of discontent, so far fruin diminishing,
nas beco n^iniiro alarming from year to year, us
a continuance of tin aysteiti has led to a further
development of public opinion.
“It should not lie a matter of wonder that all
the evils which have accompanied au obnoxious
coarse of polity, are ascribed exclusively toils
agency.’ V:mr memorialists, who fully concur
with their folio)V-citizen* its fiieir opposition to
tiie Ta'ri.f, are of that party who regard Nullifi
cation as utterly uuconstinitional. They disclaim
altogether tho language of violence aud intimida
tion; but they insist it is the duty of Government
to abstain from such Legislation as is not iu ac
cordance with tiie spirit and opinions of -the peo
ple; it'is nut rtii'ju.;li tint laws slnqlil be just and

- The Ildjiso of Represcuiatives,byrefusing the
.ihotiou to lay on the table, thq resclution for a se
lect coinmitiee to iuquirii'.into tho expediency of
making an appropriation'for tho removal of tho
people of color, havo opened tho way for a trou
blesome discussion. It is uot doubted by any
□ucrthat tbo mover of tlio resolution it a sonsiblo
man, and sincere iu his desire to get rid of a
curse which alllicts so many- States of the U-
oiftn. But tho sensitiveness of the Southern
gentlemen, has given rise to fears even among
those who are desirous for the application of a
remedy, lest the reception of tho subject hy Con
gress, should bo unproductive of the good results
which they desire.
ltumors have liocu circulated of on intention
outlie partnf tbo president, to appoint Air. Liv-,
iugstou as Aliuisier to Great Britain. You may
remember that it was at one time the wish of the
1’residept to make this appoinfmeut, but i; was
then apprehended, that tho unsettled state of Mr.
Livingston’s account with tho Treasury, would
bo a bar to the confirmation of the appointment
by the Senate. Having passed tho ordeal bnce,
there is not likely to be (any difficulty' hereafter,
aud Air. Livingston’s inclination lias long and ar
dently poiuted to Great Britain. But any inten
tion to nominate him now for that station must be
contingent. * Should Air. Van Buren he confitm-
ed, there will bo no vacancy. . The rumor, there
fore, must bo grouuded on the expectation that
Air. Van Buren will be rejected; and, even in
that case, it comes iu conflict with another report
which is perhaps quite as much entitled to credit,
that General Jackson has solemnly declared,
that if the Senate shall be so contumacious-iis to
reject Mr. Van Buren, be will never sabmit ano
ther nomination for their executive action. How
situation* of the first rank, are in that case to be
fiUed,, is net imparted to the public ear.
tKeMVfible on tllfl -stato of the. Union, Mr; Iloff-
mmt in tho chair, mid took up the Apportionment

and tho House adjourned.

•The Senate, yesterday, postponed until -today

further compensation of tho Alarshal of tho Dis
trict -of Delaware, and a bill in addition to an
act fer the relief of inadvertent deb torn of tho
United Slates, which was read twice aud post
poned till Alonday. Air. Everett,, of Alnssachu-
setts, reported a bill from tho cominitteo on tho
Library, making an appropriation to procure co
pies .of historical documents from tho public offi
ces in .Great Britain, which was read twice and
committed to tho committee of tho vyliolo on the
-state of tho Union. Tho bill iutrodtici-d on the
preceding'day, ( by . Air. Watmongh, authorising
the ravisiottond -extension of the naval rules anil
regulations, was .read a third time and passed.
Thu further consideration of the resolution on the
subject of removing the'free people of color, was
postponed till today; and the-House, alter the in
troduction of nckrly twenty resolution*; went into
u committee of tbo whole on tho state of tho U-
nion, Air. Hoffman intho chair, and took up the
apportionment .bill. Air. Wayne Concluded his
argument against 'the establishment of 48,000 us
the ratio, aud .Messrs. Hunt, Bell, 1’uttou, aiuVi
Polk, addressed the committee. The question on
Air. Hubbard’s proposition to fix tbo ratio at 44^
000, was negatived by a vote of ayes 105, uoos
81, Air. .Howard moved an amendment to
change the timo of the bill going into operation,
from the second to tho lilh ot Alarch, iu order that
the present weight of the several States might bo
preserved in the electoral colloges, our the ensu
ing'Presidential election; but buldrotlio question
was disposed of, the committee roso aud reported,
and tho lloufo adjourned.
