The Senate proceeded to consider the Bill to provide further lor the Collection of Duties on Imports. Air. Poindexter, who was entitled to the llnor, declined tiie dehate, on the score of ill health; but hoped he would bo able to address the Sena;6 another time on the subject. The Chair having stated the question to ho “Shall tliis Bid he ordered to be en .rosse l and read a third time?” Air. Calhoun m,ovcd its postponement until the next day,' sdying he had not anticipated the question so soon, and hoped there would be a full Senate vvhen it was put.' The Yeas add Nays being order ed on Air. Calhoun’s motion, Air. Fofsylh op posed the jiostponement, as the Session was drawing to a close, and suggested that after the bill should be passed to a third reading, further discussion might take place on its passage. Air. C. replied the third, reading was the most trying question, and ought tc be taken in full Senate—he particularly desired the presence of the colleague of the Senator from Georgia. Air. Forsyth rejoined that his colleague would be present as soon lie was notified that the question was to be taken. Air. Calhoun then withdrew his motion for a postponement, aud Air. Forsyth moved to amend the bill by adding certain words to the last suction, and striking out the words “lsf and oth sections” there from. The effect of this was to limit the en tire act, instead of the 1st and 5th sections on ly, to the end of holt Session of Congress. The Ayes and Nays were ordered. Air. Wilkins said the committee were of tte opinion that all the provisions, cjjcept.tho 1st and 5th sections, ought to be engrafted oj) our ptdiciary system. The case of the refusal of a Clerk of a State Court 10 furnish a copy of the j outlie cugro: record, had twice occurred, and had not been provided for, except by this bill. Air. Kane suggested a modification of the a- mondment, so as to extend jt to the limitation of all suits arising under the act which shall he pending at its expiration. AI r. Forsyth accepted the modification. j Wild’ ralijfe of hiunuu Mr. Webster said the provisions of the bill | latitude of human nvo Naudnin, Prentiss, Poindexter, Robbins, llqhbpi- sou, Seymour, bee, ripfA'guc, Tipton, Tom linson, Webs ter. Wilkins.—26. Air. Poindexter then rose and stated th.it as the army and navy were about to be employed, some appropriation was necessary, some limitation on 'tin* expenditures of the President foj tlio.purpose, 1 miiVe to amend die bll by iiit jruug a new sec tion, providing that for the purpose of carrying iuloenici the provisions ol tfais bill the sum of ■-dollars shall bo an;t is hereby appropriated. Air- Grundy hoped that tho gentlsmau from Aiississippi would fill up the blank with some sum. Mr. Poindexter said, lie would leave that to the committee on tit** Judiciary. Mr. Grundy said, the Juniciary comniiree wan ted no money But. if the gjenUemap from .Mis sissippi was disposed to gram au appropriation; it would he agreeable to the committed to know what amount he was willing to give. Air. .Calhoun said; ditJ-thegedUeiriah from Teti- nessie mean to say, that ini money would be re quired for the purposes of tho bill ? The fact must ho apparent that no appropriation is a uni versal appropriation. It belonged to those who had advanced this Bill, to say what amount of mo ney would bo required. It did not beloug to the senator from Mississippi, li the senate intended to givo tho sword to the President, they ought not to givo him the purse also. He looked upon this as one of the most arbitrary of all tho provisions of this most arbitrary biH. All*. Grundy stated that the senator from S. Carolina was more competwit .than any other person to determine whether of* not there would he auy necessity for the employment of force. If he authorities of the slate of 6. Carolina should offer resistance to the liars, then would arise the necessity far tho employment of force. Blit lie was of opiniou, that unless it rvas produced by the act of 8. Carolina, there would be no collis ion ; aud uo expenditure w ould be necessary un less there should he collision. Tho committee hoped that no such collision would arise; but if it should, pro vision cculd be made for the expeu diiiixo by tho next congress, Air. Calhoun said, the gentleman had said that there would be no expenditure unless resistance should bo made by South Carolina. Wliht did the .Senator mean by resistance ! It would he seen that in this bill, the President had the power to interrupt thaeivil process of.tint State Courts. Did the senator suppose tljat the state of .8. Car olina would acquiesce in (his interruption ? No. She would be lorccd into resistance. Yes, she would 1 Hits be compelled to tesist. But the question of time, was a far different.question.— lie thanked God that this question was in other hands to decide, riotilh Carolina, in deciding thi' question, would make the issue, with a de- lib, r it .judgment, but with irresistible firmness. The provisions of this hill weal beyond auy thing he could have conceived. lie would reverse the argument of the -Senator from Tennessee, aud say. tnere could be no collision unless it proceeded from ttxscouductof the general government. Air. Smith referred to tho course which had boeu pursu d in reference to the dispute with Pennsylvania, when >imii:ir pow ers were vested in tho President, and the military force was call- cil ott:. An appropriation was made at tho fol lowing sesdbn to defray the expenditures caused by that disturbance, lie did not apprehend the occurrence of any war. UeJieliJved that the ve- iighting, as a sufficient guard was provided a- gaiiiil titer state, of 8. Carolina getting hold of a- ny property which could produce such an evil. On motion of Air. Poindexter, the yeas aud days were ordered on kb® qprtyrimi.' The question was tlie.h taken and decided as follows. Yeas 5, Nays *11. Air. Bibb then moved to amend the bill by ad ding a section, limiting the expenditure to three millions., And on this question the yeas and nays were ordered. Air. Forsyth comtpe.ivccd a series of observa tions on this motion, which lie continued Until 3 o'clock, liis argumei.t, commencing, with tho precise motion before the Senate, and gradually expanded into a view of thepihole subject under debate Before lie concluded— At 3o’clock, the Senate, according to its rule, adjnnrncd to uitct again at.5, Air.

Clay from tho Select Committee to which was referred the bill to modify the sev eral acts imposing duties on imports, reported tile bill with various amendments. Air. Clay stated, that he was also authorised to say that at a proper time another amendment would j)e,olibred on the subject of the valuation of goods, which would bo calculated to concili ate the conflicting opinions which had prevail ed in reference to thqt ■ppifit. lie was happy to say tiiat although there was so short an in terval for the action of the two houses on this bill, the Committee entertained strong hopes that it would be found practicable to efluct some accommodations of this question before the close of the present session.
