Wlial is Missouri since the rejection of her constitution Ly the Mouse of Re presentatives ? iias she reverted to a territorial being, and will the govern ment of the United States constrain her into it ; or is she a foreign state ? She must lie one or the other. J he first part of the alternative will hardly l*e maintained ; and if she be a foreign state, she must not only pay foreign du ties upon the irtinsii of her produce through our territory, but we (rateably-,) lose the purchase money we pay France for the coniitry. Having no outlet but lb rough our territory, sbe will have to pay an amount of duties, which will return her to worse then the vvildcruet^ she was by their immediate operalion.— She must lie desolated, under this sup position. M c are unable to day to ex press many of our thoughts upon this de cision of the House, but must conclude with suggesting a very natural result of making Missouri a foreign state—the loss of the money due upon the sale of public lands. TVASiu.ioTost, December It. The question on the naked proposition, for the admission of the State of jMissouti into the Union, was yesterday settled by i vote in the House of Representatives—oi which occasion it was decided, that Missoni as now constituted, should not btaJniittiU in to the Union. Whether she would bo ad mitted as differently constituted, is a questi on to he decided when the resolution (con taining an exception of any provision of the Constitution of Missouri, if any such there be, which contravenes a particular clause in the Constitution of the United States,) w hich has passed the Senate, and is now before the House of Representatives, shall be acted up on. We apprehend that the vote on that resolve will not widely tiitFe.r from that which was yesterday taken. -As many friends as will he gained by the exception in that feature will probably be lost by it—some members considering it ns surplusage mere ly, neither adding nor detracting from the force of the resolution, and others view ing it as a concession of principle. On this subject, as it now presents itself, we will offer but a few remarks. The question which has been decided ne gatively in the House of Representatives, is not in any respect the same as that which was agitated at the last session of Congress. It is a question admitting of a difference of opinion, which we have high authority for saying, is not in all cases necessarily a differ ence of principle. Wo do not mean to sny, that the feelings which displayed themselves at the hist session did not at all operate on this more recent decision. We believe that they did operate, sensibly arid insensily, on the minds of thd members of both Houses. But their influence lias been felt, without be ing avowed. We are induced to believe, however, that but for the clause inserted in the Constituti on of Missouri respecting free negroes, the Constitution would have liecn accepted by CnngrcHsif not without division,at least with out hesitation. TUc friends of Missouri bail prevented her restriction at the last session, in the only particular lu which there, was any dispute respecting her; tc it was due from the people of Missouri to those who had stood by them In the hour of trial, that they should forma constitution against which no [ilea of exception could he taken—If advisedly in serted, the provision respecting free negroea ought to liaVo been omitted. There was the lesi reason ful inserting it, inasmuch as the omission to insert it would not have im paired the powers of the state in this ri sped, and its insertion could not confer them if riot before inherent in the people. As the matter now stands, we trust no dif ficulty will arise, even should ttie resolution from the Senate not pass in the House of Representatives. It could not have hern the design of Missouri to enter into conflict with the authority of the Union. Finding that she has done so without intending it, we can not doubt she will expunge from iter consti tution tlie obnoxious clause, especially as it is of no sort of consequence to her, neither conferring power by its presence, nor taking power away by its absence, and that site will then be welcomed into the Union by the unanimous voice of the Congress. In what niannnr this question is to he pro posed to the people of Missouri we do not think very material. If a thing he deter mined on, it is easy to find a way of doing it. And in resped to this particular subject, we ure. quite sure that the gencr.il opinion will lie, that the shortest way is the beat. If it can be adjusted by a conditional act of admission, we. hope that course will he tuk- n.—-Vo!. Int. December 16. Commodore Lane Chauncey lias been ppointed, by the I'resident of the Uni ted States, to be one of the Commission ers of the Navy Board, and lias accepted the appointment. The. Board now con sists of Commodores John Rodgers, Da vid i’ortcr, and Isaac Chauncey. Among the strangers within the bar of the House of Representatives yester day, was Commodore Samuel Tucker, from the State of Maine, who was one of the Electors for that stale, end was sent on to this City with the votes fur Presi dent and Vice-I’resident, being between 70 and HO years of age, and having per formed a journey of more then 600 miles in less than live days. This gentleman was in the naval service of the United Slates during the whole of the Revolu tionary War, and carried ;lte late Presi dent Adams to Europe ia the Boston fri gate on his lirst embassy thither. In point of bravery and patriotism, Captain Tucker is said to have been second to none in the nation ; for he look from the enemy 62 sail of vessels, having on board upwards of 600 pieces of cannon mid more than 3000 men.—Ik.

Mr. Lotcndu, replied, in a speech of two hours, to the arguments opposed to the pas sage* of (he resolution, ami in vindication of the report of lho committee.

O^/*- Since the rejection of the Missouri Constitution by the House of Representa tives, the proceedings of Congress appear to he of no great interest. On tin* 19th ult. Mr. Cbbk gave notice, that in consequence of the absence of some members and in compliance with the wishes of others, lie should postpone his motion for going into committee of the whole on the subject of retrenchments until that day fortnight. The same day, it was, on motion of Mr. Floyd, resolved, that it com mittee lie appointed to enquire into the situ ation of the settlements upon the Pacific Ocean, and the expediency of occupying the Columbia river. Oy’Tlio Speech of Mr. Sergeant, on the resolution for tile admission of Missouri, is printed this week to the exclusion of many articles—having now given one speech on each side of this question, w e are done with that debate. (F/ 1 * 'Vo have conversed with a gentleman who left Hie Indian Springs Siucn the time fixed on for holding tin* Treaty with the Greeks, who informs us, that very few In dians had met there, and it was believed, that, in consequence of the absence of some of t!ie most influential Chiefs, no Treaty would be concluded. (5j~‘ The Secretary of War has made his report on the proposed reduction of the army to C-3U0,—by which a saving of near a mil lion of dollars he estimates will bn effected. The chief reduction is proposed to be made iri the rank and (lie, retaining nearly the pre sent number of officers. From this report, which occupies half a newspaper, we shall give extracts in out next number. 03** In crossing a creek, sw elled by the late rains, n few days ago, between Fort Hawkins and the Creek Agency, the mail stage *vas swept dow n the stream and tii horses drowned. The driver was in immi nent danger, blithe fortunately escaped, and by his activity saved the mail. Washington, Dec. 15. Contrary to expectation, .‘he vvord.Vmoun did not. occur in tho Proceedings of either House of Congress yesterday; and therein difficulty even in conjecturing what course the business will take. That will !>u for the majority to determine, wlm have rejected ttie measure which was proposed by the cqmmittec. specially appointed to cousider the subject. . The resolution which hns passed tile Se nate lies on the table of the House nf lie- presentativtp, and there appears not to he a disposition on any »idu to call it up at pre sent. The decision of the House of Representa tives, on Wednesday, rejecting (he resolution proposed by their committee for declaring Missouri to he admitted into the Union, must be expected to excite much public in terest. We have adverted to that resolution from the Senate, which is now before the House, of Representatives, which declares Missouri to lie admitted with a proviso that it shall not lie cOiWrued to imply the appro bation of Congress loan)’ clause in the con stitution of Missouri, if theie be any such, which contravenes a particular clause, in tin- constitution of Min United States. We have expressed the opinion that there will nut he much difference in tho votes upon the two resolutions. We learn, however, that there will he some; and a pause (if anxious expec tation will probably take place, until the dif ferent measure", which Hie gentlemen who voted in opposition to tho resolution may he expected to propose, shall have been co.isid ered and decided. As yet, but rue specific proposition (Mr. I lill’s) has bei n made by a mend,hi* of the majority fur settling this per plexing question; but it cannoi tm doubted that many others will he offered; ami per haps it is desirahlo that, before any tin .g l.ke a defio'ti . *.* decision shall he made, the diff erent views of those who have united in op position to tin* le-voliltiiUi jiLst rejected should he developed in distinct propositions. Until this shall he done, an opinion can hardly he formed whether tho -c who have succeeded in rejecting the resolution of the commit , and who have now an opportunity of pro posing their own, will he aide so entirely to coincide in tin ir sentiments as to secure a majority in favor of any of the various pro positions which they will probably make.— In the meantime, the friends of tile rejected resolution, we understand, wait with solici tude, hot without impatience, for tho plans w hich in the opinion of the majority may he calculated to secure tin* interests of tho Unj- tod States in Missouri, and its just authority over it.—Nat.
