demonstrate the existence of a Ingli spirit of raJilr. fie filiation was lliun taken oil ttie motion to print, and it as decide in liw negative. A personal explanation took place between Messrs. Gwin. J.

TuoiarxiN, and Unsuoxa, with rrgurd lo former liobaLo on tbt subject ot the Mississippi bonds. Bill 643. On motion of Mr. ARNOLD, it wui resolved that the debute should reuse, at three o'clock, on bill 643, for the reduction of the pay of members of Congressper diem and tbe sume amount for every twenty miles of truvel, and for the reduction ol the pay and emoluments of certain officers of the federal Government in the civil departments of the same. The House then resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole on the state of the Union, for the purpose of proceeding to the considerution of the subject.

Several substitutes for the bill were submitted one by Mr. (J win to reduce the salaries of cerium officers of the federal Government twenty per prohibiting extra compensation, und providing that the pay of members shall be four dollars a day for the remainder of a long session beyond live months and another by Mr. Hunt, substituting un annual compensation of fifteen hundred dollars for the members, three thousand dollars for the presiding officers of the two Houses, and four dollars for every twenty miles of travel. After much conversation, and the absence of quiet, the committee rose without coming to any definite conclusion on the subject; when Mr. CUSJ1ING moved to reconsider the vote by which the bate on the bill was ordered to cease at three o'clock but the motion did not 3d, nays 110.

Mr. MALLORY moved a call the House, and asked for the yeas and nays. Mr. ARNOLD was understood to say that he hoped that the gentleman would not thus undertake to dodge the Question. Mr.

MALLORY replied that he never dodged, but always sailed under an open flag. Mr. ARNOLD told him to meet the question now. Mr. said that he would meet it here and elsewhere.

The yeas and nays were taken on the question whether there should be a cull of the House and it was decided in the 05, nays 130. On mot on of Mr. ARNOLD, the House again went into Committee und resinned the well rise at once. Gentlemen were designedly making a noiae. And he called on the Chair to keepordrr.

The voice and the gavil of the Chair partially produced this desirable result and an amei ilment was then adopted to the cflecl that members shall receive pay only for their actual attendance, rxrrpt in cases of sickness of themselves or families, or by leave of the llouve or Senate. Mr. MOORE moved to strike all after the enacting clause of the bill, and insert, that, from and after the cummencement of the next session of (Congress, earli member of the. House of Representatives and the Senate shall receive, during the session, seven dollars a "lay, four dollars for every mile of travel to and from the seal of Government; every member on taking the oath to support the (Constitution ol the United Stutrs, shall pledge his honor, in the presence of the House of Representatives, or the Senate, that he will strictly confine the franking pnvilege, with tegard to letters, to his own person; but he shall not be restricted from exercising the largest liberty in franking public documents to his constituents ami the country. The second lion proposed tlut privates in the army, and the Marine Corps, and the sailors in the Navy, shall have one dollar a month added to their pay.

On the question being taken, the amendment was rejected. Mr WISE mo' ed to strike out the word wherever it occured in the bill, and insert in hei thereof the word fourbut the motion did no' 56, noes 82. On motion of Mr. Pv.ndi.xton, the Committer rose, and, the Speaker having resumed the Chair the Chairman reported to the House that, for wan of tune, the Committee had come to no conclusior on the bill. And the Mouse forthwith adjourned SUPREME COURT UNITED STATES.

Tuesday, February 14, 1843. Present as yesterday No. 25 John Lloyd to George S. Hough, in rrro to the Circuit Court of the I nited States for Alexan dria. jusiifr uciitcicu inr upiuxni um rourt, affirming the judgment of the said Cirrui Court in this cause with coats.

No 3'd M. A Connor, plaintiff in error, r.r. Her Bradley and wife. The argument of this rause was commenced Mr Brent for the plaintiff in error, and continued Mr Bradley for the defendants in error, and hv Mi Jf Brent for the plaint if) in error. i I lion or the bill.

Mr. HOLMES inored to umeixl it so as to allow members, instead of mileage, the actual expenses incurred, and a day for the lime necessarily occupied ia travelling 10 and from the seat of Government, instead of the proposed AC for every twenty lie argued that the scale set down in the bill would operate unequally. To illustrate this, he referred to the fact that from some sections of the country members can travel by railroads at the rate of two hundred and forty in.ks per day while, in other sections, the conveyance is much slower, and consequently more expensive. Mr. GUSHING opposed the bill; and, in the course of his remarks he said that as they were about to leave these halls, perhaps for bid adieu to one ought to be the last men of whom it should be said hereafter that their final aet was to degrade and humiliate the legislative power of the country by a reduction of the pay of the Congress of the United States, lie argued that should the principles of the bill prevail, the effect would he to exclude thousands of poor and meritorious individuals and give place to persons in affluent circumstances.

Mr. BE EBON said it had been alleged that there was a party in this country whose policy would reduce it to iron money and black broth. lie would, in order to show who that party were, advert to the yeas and nays given at the last session of the present Congress, fiom which it would appear that the Whig party, on the question of fixing a time for the redemption of specie payments by the banks of the District had voted, in principle, to make resumption here depend on redemption nowhere. The case was this. The banks of the District, finding that the banks at Baltimore had resumed, (that being one of the conditions on which their own resumption depended, by a law then existing,) applied to Congress to be txnktrtd, so that their resumption should be made to depend on Richmond alone.

It was the policy of that party, which, by expanding tlie currency over the greater part of the union about five hundred percent in the space of let years, and then contracting it to the same amount in lour yuan, had produced the present era of distress? of iron money and black broth, lie was then about proceeding to show what was the remedy for the evil, which gentlemen, by propositions for retrenchment, designed to the hour of three having arrived, he was constrained to take his seal without concluding his remarks. The question was then taken on the amendment of Mr. Holmes, ari it was agreed 98, nays lit. And a proviso was attached 10.1, nays the mileage of any one member shall not exceed A30U for a session of Congress. Mr.

WISE arose, am much confusion of tongues, to submit a proposition; and having in vain essayed to state what it was. Mr. ARNOLD, in a loud tone, said lie could not hear a solitary word. voice, "518 and laughter Gentlemen all around him were bellowing like hyenas. voice: "Go it!" and "order!" "order After the confusion had somewhat su' sided, Mr.

WISE stated his amendment, which he desired the Clerk to rite down, as follows: Provided further, that, besides his pay, no Senator shall be allowed any ration in kind other than beef, not roasted, and not to exceed, in cost, two dollars. laughter Mr. ARNOLD asked to amend it by adding: Except the Guard, who are to receive foreign missions after the 4tli of March. loud laughter, and cries of "548 Mr. W18E igood-humoredly) remarked that he would accept the amendment with pleasure, were it not for the reason that there was no member of the Guard in the Senate.

The CHAIR decided that the amendment was not in order. The confusion in the House at this stage of proreeding increased to such an extent, that Mr. ARNOLD was induced to say that, unless order was restored, the Committee might as official.
