In the Senate the bill appropriation for the Panama passed a vote of 2.1 to 19. The amendment to the Judiciarv liill was a vote of 29 to 12. The discussion on the Bankrupt Bill was resumed, an'I Mr. occupied the floor till the hoar of adjournment. Mr.

K. commenced with a eulogy on the proud independence with which cv- ery freeholder in Virginia now acted, and described the blessingswhich the present Constitution of that ancient ar.d renowned Common wealth distributed among her inhabitants. He then adverted to the deleterious effects of the paper system--glanced at the subject, of slavery--and g-ave as a reason why lit: red black slaves to white slaves, that the bLck slaves never injured the white, breed, and never became politicians, or came to Congress. He was opposed to the press, for the same j-easrms he was opposed to standing- armies-he was for liis-friend from Missouri, because liis friend was for policy of the Government was to buy up all thf: presses they could get, and ift.be Bankrupt Bill passed, it not one straw whether Andrew sim, or John Quincy Adams, be cl- cted next Pres-'lcnt. He did not believe the President of i S.

would be able to read the L-MiVKMig as it did, of 78 pag-es and 93 sections, he did not believe the members of the Senate been able to g-ive it the attention it required. He called the President's Messsg-eto the House of Representatives, on the Panama Mission a stump speech, and pro- the speech of another Professor, silly and self sufficient--He declared lie asked a gentleman for money in the course nf his lite--and he never could do it-- Ueg-ave a recipe to nnke Bank, anddenoun- ced Unitarians in politics, who were trying- to make a unit of this government No" family f-ver flourished without a family bible, and in buying- a bible, be always would buy one from the old booksellers, not from one who would a bible: that had the seventh commandment printed without the word iwt, though the omission of the word would suit very the principle? of wine high dignitaries of this government. He never knew nian AvbcMvy'ia Theologian, and Sir, lioberl polt- never allowed the subject of religion to le discussed by Divines at his table, because, if he did, he should hear nothing but profun- Iv. The American pcop'e were not the 100th part enlightened to be--and ceitain great philologer, who proved that Congress had the right to dig Canals, because they could establish post roads, could neither speak grammatically nor write gram- niaticMlv--He protected against the eulogy pjiiil to' the mercantile community by Sir. Mavuc, and throughout the whole, of his remarks, dealt out the most unsparing abuse a- gainstthe Administration: and particularly a- ffjiiiKi the Secretary of State, M'ithout, howcy- expressly naming him.

I concluded his remarks, giving infor- tnation he had a fine double-bam-I gun at which, lw said, was the service oi- ny sheriff who might dare to come in his neighborhood, to execute any of the provisions of that law; or any agent of (ioveru- ment who might venture to set foot upon lux lands, for the purpose of laying out ro-uls and canals--He diil not care whether constitutional or not--It mattered not to him what the Supreme Court said--thank Uod he could pull a trigger--he could his double-barrel gun --What could tlu-y do with him--hang that question must be tried by a C.lnirlnttc Jury: not by a jury of this poor, miserable, corrupt 10 miles square. A jury of the 1. of Columbia was no more competent to try a freeman, than a jury of free negroes. If those with whom he had been acting persevered in support of such a law ns the one under consideration, he would quit them forever. So help him God he never would vote with them again upon any question whatever.

He would not vote with the administration, but never, never would he vote with any men that gave their sanction to that Irll--and if the bill passed, he would not vote for Andrew Jackson. He gave them that warning, he said, and so help him Uod he would adhere to his determination. When Mr. Randolph had taker his seat, a motion was made for adjournment, it then being seven o'clock, and the Senate very thin; but as soon as the question was slated, Mr. Randolph cried out, in a voice that made the Chamber ring, dont adjourn--dont adjourn-now is the time to kill the bill--now is the time, or never--this night the monster must be strangled--nobody wants to answer fmilm'i speech--What have said is surely not v-'irili adjourn--don adjourn.

And in that strain he continued for three or four In the mean time the Vice Pre- put the question, and after a count, declared there was not a quorum. Mr. Randolph continued to vociferate dont adjourn--dont 1 adjourn. Another count was made, and still there was on quorum. A third was made, a et.

no quorum. Disgusted at hist with the pretended ignorance of the Chair.a Senator rose and informed the gentleman who had "devoted unxiwix litiirn ami to the investigation of the rules" that a majority could adjourn, of a quorum. Mr. Calhoun then yielded, and declared the Senate--adjourned. The repeated counts were doubtless made that Mr.

Kamlolph, who -was haranguing all the whik-, might be able to effect a change in the other motive could have prompted such a decision. Those who are ignorant of parliamentary forms, may bebetterable tojudge ofthe absurdity ufwint- thra tltiir.i on a motion for adjournment when they re-Meet that if there had actually been no quorum, and the absent members could not be found, Mr. Colhoun would on the same principle, have been compelled to count all night, until a quorum could be had. The plain common sense rule is, that if there are but members present of that comwetentto earn" an adjournment.

Tlie d'scussion on the Ranknipt bill was renewed by Mr. of Creo. and Mr.

Jlinjnt, in favor of the bill, and Mr. Hundolph against it. The- bill was finally laid on the table on motion by Mr. from a belief that the shot-; period of the session would not admit of its being now considered with the attention the subject clemand'-d, and Mr. gave, notice that he would up at an early period next in the full confidence that the Senate would then give it its in time to ensure its passage through the House of Representatives.

The Alexandria Phenix says, when Mr. ricn had concluded. Mr. Runtlnlpb rose in reply, and in theco-n-seof his rcmaks, left, the greater part of the time, with but 12 or Senators in their seats. At one time there were but 2 present, and there were not more eight or nine persons in tiie lobby.

The erlect of this vacancy was very visible on Mr. U. for lie was unusually dull and pointless in all his attempts both at wit and invective. In the 1 ioiise of Representatives, yesterday, a report was made, by the Naval Committee, on the subject of the removal to this country of the remains of Captain Oliver II. Perry, stating that it is unnecessary to make any legislative provisions on the subject.

Mr. of Maryland, offered a resolution on the subject, and commenced some observations, but was pronounced out of order. He (hen moved to consider the report, but the- motion was not sustained. Several private bills passed through Committee of the Whole, and were ordered to be read a third time to-day. Among the bills which were passed yesterday, vas a to amend the several acts providing for a Territorial Government in l-'lorida.

In the Senate, bills, for the relief of Clark McPherrin, for the relief of Noah Noble, and (o aid certain Creek Indians, in their removal beyond the Mississippi, were yesterday passed and sentjlo the House of Representatives. In the House of Repivscntativos, yesterday, there was a long discussion mi the bill providing for the relmquishment of certain lands sold by the. United States, in Ohio, which, with the routine business, occupied the whole day. It appears from a resolution introduced by Mr.Slmnrl of Pennsylvania, as a report from the Committee on Roads and Canals, that no report will be made before the termination of the session, in the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.

The re-port will he completed during (he neU montji: the object of the resolution, which was not finally acted upon, is to authorize the Secutary of to have the report printed (hiring the recess of to transmit it to the, order that it may be examined previous to the next when it is propossd to act upon it.

The nomination of ,1.

We understand that Mr. Kivn, in consequence of his ill health, has determined tore- sign his mission to Kngland, and to ask leave to return to the United States, We have also understood that his request has been acceded to, and that he is expected to take his departure from England (luring the next month.
