uniformly and from hi* youth cherished and acted upon
that the Government was entitled to support, in ail cases
where its acts and policy were correct; but if the opposi
tion were put iu power, to-morrow, he would sustain
them to the tame exletS, and on the same principles. Mr.
E. added a further reason, that his lime was already en
grossed by the duties of other committees. Mr. Wise op
posed the motion for the excuse of Mr. Elmore, and re
marked, that according to his own shewing he was not en
titled to be excused. Hi; had given the best possible rea
sons whv he should not be excused, viz: that he was a fair
man. He himself was in the opposition, and sympathized
with the opposition, hut he would scorn himself if he did

called the Globe newspaper, which was to order the publi

duties on salt, a mighty subject, and w ell worthy no doubt
to be published for the information of the American people.
Some of the Senators in the course of the day discovered
that the publication would cost about eighteen thousand
dollars, and frightened at the amount they moved next
morning a reconsideration of the subject and defeated it.

Mr. Benton’s friendly effort useless.
Notwithstanding ibis readiness of the \ an Buren pnrtv

they have refused w ith one consent and one aocoiti, to pub

H«t Ttxfi ro«t Mesial Exbhtios.—■Hatnm has ai-
loted the darkness of the night for repose, and tbs rest®*
ration by sleep, of exhausted energies of the body and mind.
If study or composition be ardently engaged iu, towards
thnt period of the day, the increased action in the bratn
which always accompanies activity of mind, requires a
long time to subside; and if the individual lie of au irrita
ble habit, he will be sleepless tor hours, or tormented bv
unpleasant dreams. If, nevertheless, the practice be con
tinued, the want ol refreshing re| ■ se will ultimately pro
duce a state of irritability approaching to it,sanity. It is
therefore of great advantage to engage in severe studies
early in the day. and devote two or three hours preceding
bed time to light reading, niu-ic. or amusing conversation.

Among the most important matters before Congress, is '
iho disposition of the public lands. It is greatly to be re
gretted that even this impeltant public interest is made j
wholly subservient, not to the best interests of the people i
of the United States, but to the veriest party purposes.—
The political influence of the new States is very great, and
it seems to lie the great and only question in disposing of
the public lands within them, by the powers ut Washing
ton, how they may most surely turn this political influence
iu their own favor. The hill ,,f the Administration party
now before Congress, proposes to reduce the price from
$1 25 to 75 cents per acre. This reduced price will ope
rate at once on seventy-one millions of acres of the public
lands, being a direct loss to the country of two-fifths of its
interest iu her public domain. This will be its immediate
• fleet; hut in addition, it will have a prospective opera-
lion upon seven hundred and fifty millions of acres, which
■ rs without the limits of the new Stales.
North-Caro] inn, through her Legislature, bus declared
herself against this system of gratuity to the new States,
thus giving away the public property for party purpose
and the Old Dominion, we pern ive, is speaking out on tho
same subject. Mr. Tyler, from the Committee of the Le
gislaturo to which the subject was referred, inis made 3:1
able report ot; the subject, which concludes with the fol
lowing resolutions:
_ Resolved, That the public lands held by tbe United
State* belong in common to all the States, and that t-uch
and ail are entitled to participate in the benefits deriva
ble therefrom.
Resolrcd, That it is amongst the solemn
volved upon the Congress of the United States,
and bona fide'' to dispose of the public lands in .neb man
lier as w ill equally enure to the benefit of all the States,
who may now be or shall hereafter become members of
this Confederacy—and thnt this Genera! Assembly depre
cates the adoption id' all such measures by Congress, as
will have a contrary tendency.
Resolved, That whilst this General Assembly views
■with becoming pride the rapid growth of the new States,
and would do nothing to check their advance iu wealth j
and power, it nevertheless cannot fail to percrive in some !
of the propositions now pending before Congress, the gei n j
of measures calculated to unsettle the conditions on which {
the public lands were ceded by tiie original proprietor- j
States, and giearlv to impair the equality of benefits arising !
from the same, iu w hich Virginia, iu common with ail the
States, is jiis'lv entitled to participate.
Resolved, Tint not only the experience of ihe past, but
a wise forecast, requires the speedy adoption of some j according
equitable plan providing for the distribution among the i Commissi.
States in just proportions, the proceeds of the salts of the j
public lands, mid tins General Assembly, doth there lore ’

There seems to Ik* quite a fluttering among the pi;eou% j

from the unblushing partiality of Air. Speaker Polk, in ■
the appointment of Committees, especially if thev yvero 1
constituted to investigate the abuses of the Administru- j
tion, it was urged that the Committee should be taken out !
of the Speaker’s hands au i ejected by ballot. This was I
opposed by the Administration party on masse, hut carrier? i
by the Whigs and Conservatives. Upon counting tho bal
lots several of the friends of the A Itaiti isimtiim were i
elected ; hut it would seem that on this occasion, they nil !
with one consent, began to make excuse—believing per* !
hap* that for this course they ha 1 sub;toutin' scripture »u- J

were governed by scriptural example, or party discipline, j
devotion to the bible or devotion u> Air. Van Buren, it is
not the less astounding. Why do these gentlemen refuse
to accept an appointment to investigate frauds upon the
people ? Are they not sent to Congress to guard the inter-
«sls of their constituents, and to hold to a strict accounta
bility the agents, especially the money agents of the Gov-

Delaware.—A peculiar stare of affairs has arisen in
this State, which the National Intelligence explains as
follows :—For some years, past in this State tbe election
ol United States Senator has been conducted in joint meet
ing ol the tyvo Houses of the Legislature, under an act of
assembly passed in the year 1825. But at the last session
of that body in the year 1837, an art yvas passed repeal
ing so much of the act of 132-5 as provided for a joint
meeting. In l ho absence of any Icgfskt ice pioy ision as
to the mode of proceeding, the two houses are i*-ft to act
according to the law ot their organization, as separate bo
dies. 1 he political complexion of the two Houses is dif
ferent, the Whigs having ;■ majority in the House of Rep
resentatives, while the Administration has a majority- in
the Senate. Ktirh House, as =nr!j. has a perfect right to
insi.-t upon its own choice, anil differing iu politics, no con
currence can he affected.
A New Banking System in Kentucky-.—We learn
fto-n a correspondent of the Louisville Gazette, that a hill
of the kind spoken of below, will supercede all other bank
projects in the Stale of Kentucky. ** A biii to establish
a Real Estate Bank, with branches, has been introduced
into the KmuiUtcky Legislature. The mother bank is only
to lie a Bank ot Deposite, not of issue or circulation. Her
business is to he done bv her branches. One clause in the
charter authorizes investments in stocks?, which shall be
inalienable during that life of the beneficiary, bv which
slock may at any time be taken for the sole use of femes
covert, infants or other persons for whom provision may
be desired le be made, aud that the stork shall he free
from ail impediments and molestation by husband, credi
tor, or other hostile assault.”
It is worthy of especial notice, that Air. Cushman, who
made a statement on behalf of the S-cretary ot the Trea
sury, and i i his name, invited investigation into his con
duct. expressly based hi* invitation on the condition, thnt
the Committee was not to be chosen by ballot, but bv the
Speaker. The Secretary is willing to trust the Speaker,
but not the iJuu*e of Representatives I What anlika
must this fact convey to every mind of tbe gross partiality
of the Speaker, and the turpitude and corruption of the
