'Wr. «Tiio>n , .soN'ssi*KEC;ii f'cidwh-1 But, sir, ili s idea of receiving payment for our staples in gold mid silver, is not n new one. I t has been advanced before, and scout ed by Southern statesmen oh an impraclible absurdity. 'Literally trampled into the enrlli. Strange that Southern men sliould be the lirst J»iako it up the dust. If, sir, 1 have in enßPns to all the principles ol ■HPnnd political economy, it is oi i ,i: ..'■ ly importance tv the Southern planter,Unit there should be large imp rlations, than it is at what particular point those importations ■hall be made. J have always believed, and new do, tlmt a nation cannot for any length ol time, import more lhan it exports, nor export more than it imports ; that all commerce is an exchange of equivalents ; that the larger the amount imported, the greater the necessity ol equivalent exports; and of consequence the higher the prices ol the articles exported, and the greater demand for them in foreign conn tries, from on increased ability to pay lor them and that of necessary cornu qucnce. a I im pediments on foreign commerce aru at the expense of those who furnish the articles ol that commerce. Believing ail this, sir, I look w th anxiety and ala nr. to the consequences. The coun tries of Europe ore obi god to h ivo cotton, it is true, but they are not obliged to have ours It becomes us to look well to I lie coiisi quen ccs, before Vve make it necessary for our cus tomers to look elsewhere,by pun ng.t beyond their power to buy of us. in the now Iremb. ding balance of demand and supply of that •great staple, we should bo cautious how we throw the weight of a feather m the adverse »calc. No commercial event m the history id the world has produced stieh consequences, ns would the destruction of the value, or that great reduction m the price of cotton, which a large surplus would cause. In conclusion, sir, allow trie to say, that in nil respect lor distinguished men who differ with me, 1 cannot look at the great changes in our fiscal, monetary, and commercial sys tems, of which 1 reg ird the present meat urn as no important pan, in any uilu i light, than us injurious to the whole country, and c pc cially to Ihe South; and that il adopted, when it is too late, that section m particular will re pent the infalutiiun, and with emaciated frame and limbs, stifftnod by tlm lung paralysis, will uwuke to curio (lie il.usioii. I t itku ibis occasion to my, that in the ‘course which I have Celt il my duly to I,ike upon this subject, I have bei n influenced by no vain glorious confidence in my own jmlg trieiit, still less by an ostentation of firmness in opposing what is supposed to bo the ojmr ion ot tho State. No, sir, no. 1 value my euat on this floor very lilt le indeed; bull do value above all earthly honors, the eonlid nee and approbation ol those who tent ineheie— and I declare in all truth and sincerity, that the loss ol these would not he compensated by the approval of the \orld Id ,i;des, My re latioii to my coiielituents is not ilio ordinary one of constituent and representative. But, sir, I should be unworthy to represent them, il 1 could hesitate one moment in choosni < whether I should sacrifice their intore.il, and toy own firm and clear conviction ot duly, or their approbation and confidence, t ighly ns I value them. Constrained to lake tnu course which 1 have, it was due to my cniisliluunls that 1 should present fully the icnsons that have influenced me. 1 sincerely thank llie ’committee for the opportunity it Inn given ‘me of doing so. The following remarks were made in reply to Mr. Rlieti, of Mouth Cai'ohna, and Mr. Hoffman, of New York: II is with extreme pa n Hint I again ask tho indulgence of the house. Hot exposed ns I nrn to n cross lire from mv colleague, and the gentleman from New York, I am forced to do so. 1 have been unavoidably übs.uu Iroin the house for a short time this morning, and have not not heard all (hat lm« been said. But I i am infofrmed tlmt my colleague, (Air. Illicit,) i has attributed to me a purpose to stop the Go- Vcrnment by withholding the necessary sup. I plies. Now, sir, Isi d no such thing, but di- i redly the reverse. Wli .t 1 end say was vor- | batim tins: “That if the great conservative t principle ot English liboriy o( withholding . supplies, until (here was a redress of grievau- ' ces, was in any case applicable to our inslilu* ( lions, that the present was such sii■ occasion, i But that 1 would uol do il. That howsoever i and by whomsoever administered, 1 could not i forget that it was still the Government of my i country, and entitled to all proper aid from i me of money and of every flung else. Thai i 1 would voio for raising tho mon yto the lull , extent asked lor. But that 1 must be all nvod i 'to choose the mode of raising it, and could , not and would not do so by tho plan proposed, i regarding il as 1 did as a violation, n danger- i tons violation of the Constitution,” This was Avhat 1 did say. Mo understood by the whole house. So m substance reported m all the papers. So taken down ut tlic lime by the reporters, and so explained to my colleague. How Minch of justice or propriety there is at my colleague again attributing u; her language, I leave to the house nod the country. My colleague says this is a loan, and only as u loan is it constitutional: 1 propose to raise the same amount by a loan in another way—not a permanent funded loan, but a loan remiburstble at the will ul the Government, and payable whenever it has the money. Now, sr, what is the d.ffereuoe! Both are loans; both create a public debt; belli payable whenever the Govonunciit can pay, with theie differences only, that the plan winch 1 propose will sivo half a million ol j dollars; and what is far more important, will save the Constitution—and this is to step the i Government, because, although I am as wil- ! ling as my colleague to grant the supplies, I will not do it in ibe.parltcular mode dictated by the Executive—violating, ns 1 believe it | does, the Coiisi ilutioii—winch opinion 1 sup- 1 ported in mi argument, winch the gentleman has not even attempted to answer. One word ' to the gentleman from New York —not by j way ot breaking a lance in defence of my colleague—no, sir, 1 shall not do that. It docs seeni, that now-a-days, every orator, ul * every grade, who has nothing else to say. as- I sails South Carolina and the No idlers, us a certain class of preachers in a like predica ment, over ami anon repeat their texts. Now, sir, to all such, 1 owe it to myself to say, and I owe it in myself to say no more, t. at mio whatever political associations I may bo lierei niter thrown, whatever titles of bo. or 1 may hereafter acquire, this world lias none to g.ve which 1 shall regard with I lie sam ■ pride .. :ul affections us I do the designation "f that party to which they su habitually nllti le. 1 shall never again known political feeling of ns much strung 1 It and devotedness. 1 on ready at any moment in vindication of the purity and honor ul that gniiint and dcvoied parly, to break as I would a pack thread, any 1.e.- °l political attachment, as I have in thesaii" (Mute disregarded the nearest and the dearest liesol blooj and of kiudrc i.

The niter fuiili lesancss of Uie administration, however, has 1 scarcely been laid before the pc >p eol Geor gia in Its full extent. Wo are fit inly rooted in llm belief, that fur tli" last t x iiionlliH, Uie administration was insincere in the impression it was attempting to create, that ihe Indnitis would be removed. It is of a piece with .Mr. Van Ilureii’s policy. A summerset; no m il ler bow complete, is by no means nmisiuil in his history, and ho has the merit of agil ly in • hut regard, on subjects where it would he least looked (or. We infer the gross treache ry ol the (icneral Government in deceiving the authorities of Georgia, in ibo following manner. The Seeiotory of War lias Le n in correspondence with John Ro-s. in relation to the emigration of bis tribe, certainly fu some time. The War Department must bav" been apprised ol Ross’ negligence or wilful inattention to the malter, mid ul.-o cognizant ( d the reasons winch prompiMl bmi.r/a, the hope of negotiating a New Treaty The pro positions of Rims, were a subject of delibera tion, doubtless wilh those who have controll ed this mailer, and they knew with the mil l once ot Ross, they could, hy accepting Ins I propositions, at any time provide for the liilnre reiuov.il of Ills tribe. Why then tins parade ol orders—tins bravado of concentrating the regular Hoops i i tba! country—lin.-t mockery ol calling out the nnliliu of llio Hi.ate.-, lo en force the execution of n Treaty, which they hit ihemseKcs, they intended lo postpone I And finnlh, why were not ihe auliionlies ol Georgia, apprised oldcialy ol the new nugo tuitions then pending, and the probability iln.i limy imglit lead to tins event 1 'i'ne (i moral (loveriinn nt I altered at cun sum mm mg n,s on treaties —the udministrniion wavered at the idea of cnlorc ng u parmnount law oflim land openly, and Us agents have thus sought d.s grneelully hy seerci negotiations to evade a responsibility they dared not assume. Tins is llio administration Unit was to follow in the loom eps ol General Jackson I Much as wo have disliked the course ol tno ialo I’res dent, on this subject, ho is not liable lo cemjire. 1 lie bad (mill in the Government operates very extensively lo the m ury ot the ciUsteris ol Georgia. Tlio first, mid most impoilui l consideration, is, the altitude’ in which ihe In dians are placed. JJy ibo provisions ol tlio Ticaly, their right to the lands in that section of country, became extinguished on the 3d day ol .May. Iho iSlaio ol Georgia has id" ready disposed ol tlio lands. The Grants lor n large portion, are in iho hands of her citi ■/. : s, issued hy her million'}’; those Indians therefore, occupy ing lots already grunted ; have no shadow of title, mid arc'liable lo be ejected as mere u trnders. Ily the net of the General Government, iliey have been made, and now are, tresspassers on iho soil. What difficulties ibis stale of Hungs may produce, is beyond our foresight to conjecture, Jlosiii lies, aggressions, outrages and 'murder, all may come, caused hy tins ll igrant nidation i f ihe laiih ol ihe .Federal Government. Ano ther Indian War may result, not in the dis grace ol (lie American arms, but llio cxtinc •ion ot llio Cherokee tribe within the limits of Georgia J.et the administration look lo it. Again, our citizens have been grossly duped i hy tile War Department, They were called into ihe service of the U. Stales lo enforce its ' laws, and protect Ihe country. Called at a * lii'ii' 100, when the War Department was se- - rroily negotiating to evade this very result, t The hardy volunteer promptly responds to ihe , cull—with alacrity, he lays aside the imple, moots of pence, and gods himself with the weapons of war—ho hastens to the scene of anticipated danger—when, lo I negotiation Inis taken the place of conflict", and ilie Gov. ■ eminent ehoosees to accomplish by diploma- i cy, what it hud threatened lo achieve by amis. , And in addition lo this nioriilicalion, ho is compelled lo remain in the service ol ih" C. .Stales, to assist in dragooning his own lollow citiaeus into a compliance with the me i ire ot i his vacillating and faithless id min is ration. II the Federal Government did not intend lo practice tins gross deceit on the militia of Georgia, why did not the order to Gen. Hcolt which suspends the enforcement of the Trea '}’, direct the discharge of the trooops which had been called iulo scivicc lor that purpose! Another evidence of the insincerity of the administration, is to be found in the phrase ology ol I lie orders they have addressed to G. ii. taeoit. A plain mm needs no circum locution to express his intentions. Mark the obscurity—the ambiguity—nay, the direct con 1 radiation contained m this precious di plomalico—military production.

In the Senate today, Mr Clay, from Kentucky, rose, and said he wished to present two petitions in behalf of a National Hank. They professed to he petitions from poisons of oil political parlies —from nun of business —men who had felt in the transactions ot their business the great incon veniunco of the want of a uniform currency, pai licularly as connected with the trade of the South, Which had become greatly embarrassed, and especially so between Connecticut and the South. As these petitions were very much in the same language with others which be had pre sented, and us favorable action on this subject by Congress constituted as it now is, was utterly unattainable, Mr Clay thought it useless to say or do more at tins lime than to ask that the pc. til ions bo received and laid on tho table. lore, gard to the political character which they claimed, there were marks upon them by which Senators might know whether they came from men of all parties, which, Mr Clay observed in an under tone, they would not care about knowing! The petitions were laid on the table. A number of private bills were disposed of; and the Senate then, at an early hour, went into Executive session, on Indian Treaties recently submitted for their approval. Those which wcrc'umlor consideration today went treaties with the Senecas, the Sioux, and tho Wimicbagocs, No decision Was come to upon any of them. The House spoilt tlio whole of the day in the consideration ot private bills. 'i on will bavo seen from time to time in the newspapers rumours of cabinet changes. 1 can assure you there will be no resignation or new appointment until the close of the session. There will then probably bo an entire re-organization of tho whole Cabinet. The President does not wish to encounter the comments, and examina tion, mid perhaps opposition of t lie Senate to the now appointments. Mr. Buchanan, it is belie ved, will go into tho Stale Department, and Mr. Fon-vrii will go to England, as Minister. Mr. Van Beuen is extremely desirous of getting ritl of Wouuui nx: but the latter sticks to him like a bur. The Sab Treasury Bill will be taken up next w eek as soon as the Pre-emption Bill shall be dis posed of.

The greatest excitement prevails. Sir [ Juhon Gulborno arrived in Montreal on Thcsday, with several officers ol the army, and left inline, diatcly lor Upper Canaria. Tlte Herald says : ‘•Hi- Excellency will inspect Fort Henry and give the necessary orders for erecting fortifica tions alongthe frontier, in ease of a general tear, now becoming more probable every day." 1 he Earl ol Durham has issued a proclamation offering a reward of a thousand pounds for the apprehension of any individual connected with the recent outrage on the Sir Hubert Peel, and ex horts her majesty’s subjects, “notwithstanding the aggravated, provocation they have receive!, carefully to abstain from any act of retaliation, which may expose them to the imputation of a disregard of their own honor, by a violation of the internal lights ol adjoining powers*” Sir George Arthur has also issued a proclamation of a similar character, but containing less conciliato ry language. Ho charges the outrage ujon citi zens ol llie United Stales, and in.-ists that redress should be immediately demanded of our Govern mtnt. The 85tb regiment and the thiee remain ing companies of ihe 54, together with the detach ment just arrived to join that regiment, received orders fur Upper Canada*—The Coltlstrem Guards were expected to setoff immediately. ’Troops are to be stationed at the points which ate most exposed along llic frontier, and large reinforcements are ordered into the Upper Pro. viuce from Quebec, to garrison the fortifications. His Excellency was to hold his first levee on Tuesday at the Chateau St. Louis. Sutherland is to lie lodged on Cape Diamond, near Quebec, previous to his embarkation for New South Wales. The Edinburgh 74 whose return to Quebec excited considerable speculation, put back because she was short of provisions, She had on hoard, when she sailed only live weeks provisions ; and having been detained nearly two weeks at Bran dy Pols, she would not risk proceeding to sea.

By tbe politeness of one of the gentlemen attached to the United Stales ship Natchea. we arc indebted lor a lilu of Mexican journals up to 10th May inclusive, as well as for letters on Mexican affairs, which contain all the informas (ton the yvriter was enabled to collect. The Mexicans seem to ho getting quite habitu ated to the blockade, or it may be, they have not yet began to feel its ligors, the more so, as the letters of our correspondent state, that the present French force is insutlicient to maintain a com plete blockade. One ol the numbers ol the Diario makes men tion of the capture of a schooner from Tampico, called la Uarbarita. She wis taken off Vera Cruz by a brigantine and gun boat. To the Editor of the Dee. Sir—The blockade of the Mexican ports, I presume, deprives you of your usual intelligence from that country. Vera Cruz, Campeache, Tampico and Mata raoras arc the places at present hloskaded. The Frigate Herminie, Com. Bazoche, with Baron Dvffandis on board, and a small brig, are at Sac riildos. The other ports are each guarded by a brig ol v’v’itr. The bark Ann Eliza from N. York ran into Vera CiPZ on the 23d April, notwith standing the blockade. i i.C difficulty in pre serving an efficient blockade of tbe Mexican ports will be very great, and a much larger number of vessels will be required than is at present employ ■ j od. The iitasosd c Santiago, lot example, is ten j milos from the mouth of tho Kio del Norte —one vessel can not guard both entrances; again to the southard [of Tampico is Tuspan, an excellent harbor having almost an entire inland water communication with Tampico. It seeqis at pro sent the French intend no further annoyance than a blockade, thereby it is thought tbe people will be induced to depose the present incumbents ol office, and place them in power who will make the required reparation. This however seems rather an improbable supposition, in as much as General Unea who heads the disaffected parly, and who has actually taken possession of Mara thon and Guaimas, has recently pledged himself to support the government against the unjust ex actions, its they term them; of the French. The Mexicans themselves speak of the blockade, as a matter of very little importance, and many are of the opinion, that its tendency will be to produce a most harmonious co-opperation of the various parties, which have heretofore distracted the coun ry! Ail hostile operations against Texas; have been for the present, entirely suspended; the whole energies ol the nation being directed to prepara tions to meet any emergencies which may arise oui ot the F each difficulties. The intelligence which has just reached Tam pico, that the United (States has consented to ic ier the claims to the arbitration ot some foreign power, has been received with the warmest man ifestations ol approbation. They speak of it, as a strong evidence of the justice and honesty of the i . people of the United Stales. , The effects of the blockade arc beginning to be i felt in the sea port towns. Provisions and for> ' ' cign merchandise are becoming scarce and dear, j ' A Conducts was expected at Tampico by the j sth of June, with $5 or 600,000, a large purl of . which would be for the United Stales.
