In this morning’s paper will be found the speech of the Hon. E. A. Xisbef. delivered on the Treasury Note Bill, to which we invite the calm and deliberate investigation of our readers. Like ©very thing that falls from that gentleman j it is a calm, digoitled and able expose of his ; views on an important question, yu taritVon lux- j urirs,) which must eoon come up for considers- j lion, and we trust that none of our readers w ill j fail to give it such a perusal as its merits so etui- , neatly demand. Disastiuus Fire. We are indebted to a gentleman direct from Washington, Wilkes county, for a partial account of a most disastrous sue that occurred ui that town on Wednesday night, the 24th inst. The lire broke out about v or 9 o’clock at night, in the store of .Messrs. Burton <l* Pellott.or a small house near by, communicating rapidly to the adjacent buildings and continued its ravages until 2 o’clock on Thurs day morning. The store of Burton and Pcllott, the stores and dwelling ol A. A. Cleveland, the store of Willis k. Calloway, the dwelling of Dr. F. Willis, the stole of Mr. Sohan, and several other stores and dwellings, together with most of the goods and furniture, were all consumed, the par ticulars of which our informant could not obtain, as he left soon atter the lire was arrested. It ex tended South, crossing the street leading to Lex ington, to Alexander’s Hotel, and North to the Branch of the Stale Bank, destroying every build ing on the West side of the public square. Our informant could give us no definite idea of the ex tent of the loss sustained, but it was no doubt, very considerable, on which he thinks there was but lit- j tie insurance. Scarcely any thing was saved ex- : cepi in a damaged state. Several other building*, i the Court House. Alexander’s Hotel, Lane’s store, 1 and Mr*. Roberts dwelling were several times on tire, but were fortunately extinguished without much damage except that caused by removing the goods and furniture. Since the above was written, we learn from a gentleman of this city, that Messrs. Cleveland, Burton & Pellolt. &. Lanes were insured to some extent. • Correspondence of the Chronicle and Bentinet. Washington, Saturday Evening, > Feb. 20th, IS4I. y The election of Printer to the Senate was forced , upon that body by the Federal Locoiocos to-day. Mr. Mangutn of North Carolina, condemned in severe terms the course of the majority; and de clared that he for one, would not go into the elec tion. This determination had been agreed upon by the Whigs; and consequently when the pages pro ceeded to collect the ballots, the Whig Senators re fused to deposite any. Twenty-seven ballots were ; cast,of which Blair and Rives received 28; Blair. J. Blair and Rives having received a majority was declared to be duly elected Printers.

Mr. * Clay made a few remarks, declaring that he had deferred asking any decision till this hte period of • the session, because as the Administration party looked on the measure as an important one, hr was willing they should have all the benefit of it so t long as they continued in power; tui he thought it ' ought not rt) be continued over the next Adminis- j tration. The people had emphatically condemned it and now called for a repeal, other questions un- 1 doubled! y were involved in the recent contest; but ! trie Sub-Treasury was the prominent objection to 1 Mr. Van Bureu's Administration, and had led to its ! uveithrow more than all other causes combined. Mr. Alien of Ohio, opposed the resolution, and offered a counter resolution, declaring that the Sub- Treasury ought to he maintained in oj*eration. He complained that the Whigs had offered no substi tute for the measure they wish to defeat. Ml. Clay said the condition of the country after the repeal would be exactly the same as it was before the passage o:* the Act. The resolution of 181‘i, for organizing the Treasury Department, and prescribing the mode in which the public moneys should be kept, would remain in force. As to the financial measure* of the coming Administration, they would be brought forward alter the parly should come into power. It would be useless io present them in the present condition of political parties in Congress. Mr. Williams of Maine, made a lung apology lor violating the will of his constituents, as delibe rately expressed in the resolutions he offered yes terday, and -announced bis intention to vote against the repeal. Mr. Walker of Mississippi, undertook to show 100, that although the people of that Stale had voted for Gen. Harrison, he was hft free to vole against repealing the Sub-Treasury % Mr. Allen then moved to Jay on the table the whole subject; and this being considered the test question as to the repeal, was decided by yea.* and nays as follow*; Yeas 27, nays 25; so the motion to lay on the table was carried, and the repealing resolution, therefore, virtually rejected. The House of Representatives has been engaged during the whole day in discussing the General Appropriation Bill. 4>lici —, r Mr. Underwood of Kentucky, spoke at length in general condemnation of the measures of the Ad ministration, it* abuses and corruptions.

The appointment of this gentleman to a-station in the new Cabinet, has been the signal for the Loco Foco press to commence the attack upon the new administration. At this we are not at all | astonished, but we had supposed that the signal j rebuke which the organs of that parly received | from the people, lor all their slang about aboli j tion during the late canvass, would have ere this ; taught them a lesson, which they would not so ; soon have forgotten. In this however we are i mistaken, as it seems they profit little by expert | ence. Knowing how little confidence the people I of the South are disposed to place in these long ' and incessant harangues upon the subject of abo lition as connected with General Harrisons ad ministration, we did not deem them worthy of notice, nor should we now allude to them ; but it is alike due lo Mr. Granger, as lo General Har rison, that the people of the South should be made familiar with the sentiments of the new Post Master General, on this question, and we there fore transfer to our columns the following article from the Richmond Whig. The Loco Foco or gans may therefore continue lo rant about Mr. Granger and his opinions, for they have made so’ ! many and such desperate efforts to gull the peo- , pie of the South on this question, that the peo ple are not only disgusted, but they are wholly unprepared lo give them any credbifre. even, should! ibt-jr so far depart irooi their usual custom, j as to speak the truth, ot any member of the new i j Cabir.el or his principles. From the Richmond Whig. Mr, Granger. We promised yesterday to lay before the coun try the most conclusive evidences of Mr. Granger’s soundness and perpendicularity on the subject of I Abolition, and we proceed now to redeem the i promise. i w e refer the people of Virginia to the follow ing letter from a member of Congress, (not Mr. i Granger.) as fully satisfactory. Let us add lo it ; the foil wing : m House Journal.— Page 87 6 — May 25th, j 1836.

V irgimans. holding a9 the opinions of Virginia i on the subject of slavery, outran Mr. Granger himself in his own county ! The vole for Bir ney shows the true Abolition strength in Mr. Granger’s county, and how absurd it is, nay. how much worse than absurd, either lo fear that pooi handful, or to pretend to fear ihegi. We say nothing of the baseness and ingratitude of stigma tizing men as Abolitionist, who like Gen. Harri son and Mr. Granger, have given on all occasions against it, and vindicated the rights of the South. Nobly as the North has sustained the rout h in this matter of Abolition.how ungenerous is it, how unworthy .and despicable that Northern men who havestomi by the South, I should be taunted, reviled, denounced, for the pur pose of accomplishing a paltry party end ! What is he but an enemy of his country, who is con tinually availing himself of his position endeavor ing lo sow lares netweeu different sections of the i country, and inflaming the minds of those who I 1 confide in him.against the very men who have best ' deserved ol'Virginia, by an unremitting series of misrepresentation, perversion, and insinuation I Birney and Garrison, with all their gang, have done lar less injury man the Richmond Enquirer i with its incessant gabbling about Abolition. But to the letter: Washington City, Feb. lith, 1841. - Dear JSir—l see that efforts are making by the Richmond Enquirer and other kindred prints lo created* impression on the public mind that Mr Granger of New ) ork. who is to be the next Post Master General, is an Abolitionist. It is done for effect in the coming elections, while no charge ever made by that print, was or is farther from t ! the truth. I have heard it so often reiterated that I determined this morning to ascertain, by actual | inspection of hi© speeches heretofore made in Con ■ ' gross, the truth or falsity of the charge. I find, t | upon examination, that Mr. Granger’s opinions • pmi I lie subject are indentical with those of j thousands of southern men of both political pur lies. He believes m the abstract right of pcliiion.no j docs Mr. (’lay.— He is opposed lo all interference j by (-ongretM with slavery in the District (’olumbia 1 jor elsewhere.— He even expresses the slrong b i cut doubts whether Congress lias any power un -1 dcr the Constitution to legislate on the subject at all. He goes even farther than many of the best and most patriotic men of Virginia. Mr. Van * Buren said he “would not feel himself safe in ii pronouncing that Congress had not the power to „ abolish slavery in the District of Columbia;” and 1 yet he forsooth, was “a Northern man with soutk ° I ern feelings.” Now what is Mr Granger? Hear ■r I.im. His opinions, too, are upon record, j. On the 22d December, 1835, on the question spending in the House of Representatives from * the day before,on the motion of Mr. Patton for > r reconsideration of the vole by which n memorial re praying Congress to abolish slavery within the DitfU ct of Columbia, was referred to tne Com mittee o« the District, Mr. Granger,in the course of a tew remarks, said ; ••Sir —I bold the Abolitionist of the North in s- i no higher respect than do the gentlemen from h j South Carolina, or from any other section of the e- j country. There are many of them for whose in { motives 1 have no respect—theie art* others h. I whose motives are honest, but to whom, nnsgiy <e i <lcd as they are, I would say—‘Stay your hands i* —vou must not scatter fire-brands, arrows and in death, and say we are in spoil.’ Os them. 1 say, deal with them umlcr tin* Constitution and laws id of the land as you think proper, hut when 1 am Li- called upon lo confound these petitioners with a- such persons, 1 feel it my duly so enter my pro -- teal. >fl *• Differing us I do from many of my constitu* ents, 1 haw never entertained hut one opinion and that is, even if the constitutional right rx- | iats, which 1 doubt strongly, there is no question | of policy, now existing, which should call fur l«- ; gislation on thin subject.” 1 and not u word of comment—let the world judge of the truth of the charge. 1 will only add if Mr. Granger cannot he shown lo lie objection-, able on other grounds, be will he, in my estima tion, on the suiqect of slavery, nil that the South could require ol him or any other metnl>er of the Cabinet. General Harrison left this morning for Virginia | —he lias now many friends here, who, before they had the pleasure of an acquaintance, could of i course only form opinions Irom the represent a- | lions of others. I mean that they are his friends ! politically apd personally. The Cabinet is thought by all to l»e as strong | us any preceding, and perhaps tho very >trongest ' over formed since the establishment of tho Gov ernment. Tho Supreme Court Room is crowded to-day with visitors anxious to hear Mr. Clay in the great cause depending there from Mississippi, in volving the right of a State lo prohibit the im- ; portation of slaves from other parts of the Union. | Yours, Ac. • •» | While on the subject, let us acquit ourselves in the eyes ol Mr. Granger. We spoke upon the first announcement of his appointment as Post Master General, duublingly upon his Abolition opinion*. Our object was to elicit the evidence falsity of tbu charge which w© knew that “inemdiary brawlers*’ would prefer against him. of his leaning to Abolitilion.

If Mexico shall accept the mediation of England, this armistice will take place within thirtv days after the Mexican government is notified of the convention by the British Minister in -Mexico. As the despatches of Lord Palmerston relating to this subject have already been forwarded from Galveston, we may expect intelligence from Mexi co relative to the armistice, about the first of March.” The treaty with the Netherlands has also been I ratified by the senate.

Washington, February 22. Mr. Webster retired from the Senate, to-day, after a service of Rome fourteen years in that oody. It is not helioved that he will ever appear again at the bar or in the Senate. Hi* Congressional and forensic career may be considered as having terminated. It has been a long and brilliant ca reer, and nothing that he can achieve, as the head of a department, ran serve to incieasj hi* fame. In the Senate, Mr. Cri.tenden brought up hi* hi.l for restraining office holders from interfering with elect ions and he delivered a very earnest speech in its support. Mr. C ha* at least the merit of consistency, inasmuch as he adheres to the same measure for the in-coming administra tion that he pioposed for the out-going. Mr. Preston, in a splendid speech on the sublet, com plimented Mr. (Vittenden in a manner that elicit ed a burst of applause from the galleries—which were immediately cleared. There may he some prospect now of the passage of the bill. The House passed a bill making a further ap- } propriation for completing a survey of the north- < eastern boundary.. The general appropriation hill was taken up in Committee of the whole—the question being on striking out the clause which limits the emolu ments of Marshals, District Attorneys and Clerks Mr. Cushing made a very animated harangue against the course of the administration, which, coining into power under the name of retrench ment and reform, had so much increased ail the expenditures. The Whig party are pledged to economy and retrenchment. In that sign tfiey had conquered. They would he faithful to their pledges, when they were possessed of power. If not, he would labor with the same zeal lo pull them down that he had exerted to set them up. But he would not undertake partial retrench ments. He went for a general system, which it was the mission of Harrison to form and carry through. The committee struck out the proviso, hut sub stituted another fixing the rale of fees according to the rale allowed in the Stales resjiectively.— This was done by a vole of 66 lo 66, Mr. Bell, as Chairman, giving the casting vote in the af firmative. Mr. Webster left the Senate about three o’clock, taking no part in the business. His resignation was previously handed in ami read. Mr. Cuthbert, of Georgia, with great ve hemence, mu to say rancor, oi. Mr. Webster’s political course and principles, addressing inter rogatories \p him and charging him with having uttered an opinion, in a public meeting, some lime ago. in Boston, to the **fferr ul ffo-.mmrni, under tne cons’iiuiion. had the right to prohibit the internal State slave trade. To that opinion he ascribed the growing .strength of I abolitionism, which threatened to break down aB the constitutional barriers, and prostiate all the i rights and liberties ot the South. Mr. day, after questioning the propriety of ' such an attack, after Mr. Webster had left the J Senate, availed himself of the occasion to pass u i beautiful and impressive eulogium on the distin | guished Senator from Massachusetts. Mr. Rives | followed, nearing his testimony lo the soundness i of Mr. Webster’s doctrine*, as recently, fiequent ; ly, and impassively declared, in Alexandria, Richmond, dec., on all the subjects affecting south ern rights and interests. Mr. Cuthbert became much excited, and said the proofs of his change should come before the public. By heaven, they shall, he exhumed. No question was taken on Mr. Crittenden’.* bill.

Heavy Blow. —On Sunday last, the vessel* in haioor. consisting of the Joseph Ciomwcll. Walter M., Empire, and Stephen A Frances, proceeded to sea, with a stiong wind from the Southward and Westward. About 12 o’clock the wind veered lo the Northward, and blew with great fury, compelling the vessel* to put back for this port. The Empire, in attempting \ |p go about, missed stays and her anchors were | immediately let go bringing her up, with her ' stern grounded on the Middle ground.

Washing ton, Feb. 17, 1841. The case brought up ft oft the Htate of Missis sippi involving the validity of aM the contract* made for the purchase of slaver, carried into that Male since the adoption of the Constitution in 1832, i* now under diacasspiii in the Supreme Court. Mr. done* of this ciw. finished his argu ment this morning, who* rto- Hom. Henry Clay commenced his remarks. VeV engaged the atten tion of the Court and a forge and intelligent asem- ! hly of persons, who had been drawn into the court room under the expectation of hearing him. He spoke for three hours, 6pon the point* of law in volved, oqd in truth demonstrated the correct ness of the principles he advanced. He set out, after an exordium on the immense importance of the case—the million* involved with the principle that the clause of the Constitution of the the Mute of Mississippi, declaring “that tne introduction of i -laves as merchandize into that State, shall he prohibited after May, 1833,” was exclusively a mandate upon the Stale Legislature to enact law* ' making it illegal lo introduce them—having no j obligatory operation upon the people of the Stale j or others, until the Legislature had discharged u* j duly under this provision of the Constitu. ion, by : declaring by Htatute, the intr«»diiction illegal, as it intended should b' done. It ibis principle was established in the mind of the Court, a* I have very little doubt, without going any farther into ■ an investigation of the other points he made, the \ decision ul the court of Mississippi will be revers- j cd, the Legislature not having discharged its duly j and the contracts made for the purchase of slave* since that period, will be vallij ami good. How otherwise should they be? They have the slaves { of the people of Virginia, Maryland and Kentucky | and *till hold them aa property, deriving all the ! | benefit* of their labour, and vet endeavouring to I avail themselves of a provision in their constitu tion, which they themselves had disregarded by their own acts and the acts of their Legislature, and avoid the payment of then just debt*. Upon this subject. Mr Clay evinced the noblcne** ol hi* f»oul—the high and manly tone of honor, justice and fidelity, he portrayed, and said should char acterize Hiates aa well as individuals, to every unbiassed ininu, carried deep conviction, that he stands pre eminent as an American Patriot in thougiit word and deed. Washington Citi, Feb. 19, 1841. When I entered the Huprwne Court room this morning, the Hon. Daniel Webster was speak ing. He had just began hi* remarks, and after showing to what extent respect Is due by this Court to the deciaions of the date Courts, made in controversies between the, citizens ot another and their own State, and whit wu* the object of the provision of the Constitution allowing such suits lo be brought in the Fetcral Courts, he di vided his argument into the two following head*: Ist. What is (be true meanbg of the provirion of .the Constitution of Miaaissupi prohibiting the introduction of slaves into that Mate as merchan dize, after May, 1833; 2d. fiow far this provis ion i* consistent, with the p-ovision of the Feder al (’onslilulion givintlo Contress the “power to legulate commerce ahfeng lbe t several Stales.” Upon the first b unch of hh argument, it pos sible, he placed the correctness of the view taken by Mr. ('lay in a still cleape and more distinct light.—On the second, hejkwvcr put to rest, so fV a* 'hr ndita u> 4 die pieun si >n >rtha*Abo(i(ioni*ts tfir\ die Government* of the C.

Upon thi* sub ! j<•«*t- he would, no doubt, have removed the fear* I of your neighbor Ritchie, had he been present — i at any rale, have satisfied him, that in Mr. Web ! sler there is '‘nothing to l»e (beaded from any j friendly .cgurd he may entertain for those mis guided enthusiast*. He proved that we have a property nf-these slaves granted and secured to u* by the Constitution of the I . s„ and that this right of property wa* even so far recognized as to l»e compulsory upon the non-slave States to deliver up our slave* escaping to within their ju risdiction—that under the clause of the Constitu tion lo regulate commerce among the several States, he argued that in all matter* of purchase i and sale of properly between the several States, I the Stales* can make no regulation whatever in 1 their individual capacity—and the necessary in j ference is, that Ihe Constitution of Mississippi • prohibiting the introduction of an article recog j nixed a* property, i* inconsistent with the pro- I visions of the Federal Constitution. Suppose, as Mr. Clay remarked in his speech. ; a’lthr slave Stales were to pas* such a law . and | all the slaves now existing, and hereafter horn, j were thereby compelled lo remain in their res • pective States—it would he producing, in effect. | the very thing contended for and aimed at hv the ! Abolitionists. The power to regulate commerce i being a conservative principle, and not destruc j live, must extend lo all kind* of property, or we j shall never l>e able lo draw the line w here it mu-l , | stop. 'This doctrine of prohibition contended for j by the counsel on the other side, Mr. \V. said, j carried us back to.the stale of non-intercourse and • Hiatp retaliation, which if was the express object of the Constitution to prevent, by giving the pow er over commerce lo the Federal Government, thereby producing harmonv and symmetry in all our relation*. When he concluded, Mr. Walker rose lo reply. Warning to Office Skf-eer*. —We have frequently seen it stated hy persons who knuw General Harrison well, that flatterer* will stand no chance in procuring office by their blandish ments, from him. We have heard of several lit tle instances which have occurred since his arri val in the District, which goes lo strengthen the above assertion, which we will relate for the !*•- nelil of those who may de|>end on a smooth tongue to secure for them that which their indi vidual merit would not do. A well known politician of Washington re cently called on the General, and after paying hi* resnerts l*egan to compliment him on his great popularity with the people, his wisdom, good judgment, Ac. The General listened to him m • ientiy for some time, and at length getting out ot j patience, he interrupted him by saving, ‘‘Mr. . ! 1 would prefer h-lenmg lo such language as this i at another lime and another place.” An eleventh hour Whig from \ irginia. sought to commend himself to the favor of the General by relating what he called a little incident which occurred between hinisell and a neighbor, in which he had figured a* the champion of (he G ncral. testifying lo hi* h-ing one of the most talented Statesmen in the country. Ac. This occurred at Ihe dinner table. When the *• eleventh hour raan” had finished hi* story, the General replied tl? him by saying “ this is au excellent ham. sir, very good indeed.” We might relate many other incident* of a similar character which have occurred, in which a flat rebuff wa* given to the flatterer, or a midden change in the conversation indicated too plainly to be misunderstood that the wrong string had been touched.— f »'rorgetown Advocate. A Great Wore. — The Isthmus of Panama —Operations of the French Engineers, etc. — Early in the spring of the last year an enterpri sing company in Puri* fitted out an expeditiou to ascertain, by a careful survey, whether it is practi cable to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans by a *hip canal across the Isthmus of Panama. We learn tiom a letter received hy a gentleman in this city yeslcruay, from a New Orleans corres pondent (hat the ri{•edition arrived at the mouth of the (Viogre#, ready lo commence operations, about the last of August, and (hat on the first of December, partial suiveya of two diiferent route* had left on the mind* ol the engineers an impres sion that the long conteinpla(ed|rnterpriHe wa* nut only practicable, but that a canal of *ufficient rapacity for the largest ship* might be construct ed at a cost much below any of tho eatnnatea which have hitherto been published. Liilra* the local government*, therefore, interpose some in surmountable obstacles, we ahull look lor the prosecution of this great work at an early period. It is astonishing that the execution of tins I important project hgs been so long delayed. The Edinburgh Review, so long ago as 1809, spoke of it as the mightiest event in favor of the pescclul intercourse of nations which the physical circum stance* of the globe presented to the enterprise i of man ; and from (hat time until tho praaent. [ there have )>een intelligent statesmen and liter* i chants constantly, hut vainly, endeavoring to I bring it about.

To the commerce of (hi* country and Europe with the western cosst of South Ameri ca, the construction of tin* canal would save the circumnavigation of that Lorn mem. the total di*- | tamw of witch i* about twelve thousand miles, together with ull me bard-hip* and pet ns of go ing round Capo Horn. Our great Pacific territo ry, now almost inucces*ihie to the commerce of the Atlantic seaboard, except hv oveilarM con veyance, would Is* brought within easy access ; and the commerce of the work with L’hina and I (he Indian Archipelago would he facilitated hy a I wving of about four thousand mites in distance, together with a yet greater advantage in safely and ease, from the route passing through the moat fit volatile latitudes for winds and currer.ta each way. To the whale fisheries and fur trade similar advantages would he afforded. Great as would lie all these benefits, they would he sur passed by Ihe effect which such facilities of com munication and exchange would exert in extend ing intelligence, stimulating the immense masses of (he human race to new efforts of industry, and developing the resources of the richest portion of j (* le globe. It i* a source of regret that our Gov | eminent could not have been prevailed on to un- I dertake this gr«at enterprise, in the prosecution of which they have an interest deeper than that of any other nation; hut wc hope that the French company will succeed so perfectly as to render it* interference hereafter entirely unnecessary.— Phil.

Mr. Clay j I pointed to the bright and glorious example set by hii fuend of adhering when in power, to the ‘ pledge- he had given when in opposition. Mr. Preston, after a noble defence of the meas ure, paid a glowing compliment to Mr. Crittenden.

He ascends to an Executive ! station with the'e declarations of liberty on his lips, and this noble bill in his hand. Mr. Preston pursued this thought with such ! commanding and splendid eloquence, that when he : closed, there was a spontaneous burst of applause j from the men** gallery.
