Clay of Kentucky, adopted by the Legislature of that State, in favor of a national Bank and the distribution of the public lands. They were laid on the table and ordered to be printed. In the House, on the 25th, several Potnraunica-tionswere made from the President and the 'Departments, in obedience to calls of ihe House vii: Concerning our relations with China statement of Contracts from the War Department Contracts and Mail services for the Post Office Department statement ot contracts from the Secretary of the Navy and ateo from the Secretary of the Treasury relative, to amounts paid for public lands, Among the bills received which had passed the Senate, was one to abolish the port of delivery and the office of surveyor of the Customs at Currituck Inlet in this State; and also an act to authorize the Secretray of the Treasury' to make an arrangement or compromise with any of ths sureties on bonds given to the United States by Sauauei Swart-wout, late collector of the customs for the port of New York. In the Senate, on the 2t3th. Mr.

Smith, the "whig" member from Indiana, presented a petition from ihe "whigs" of that State, praying Congress to take measures to acknowledge the independence of Haytit and the establishment of commercial relations with that Republic; also a petition praying that the Constitution of the United States, may be so altered as to make free white men the basis -of The question on' receiving these memorials' was laid on the table. The House resumed the consideration of the bill authorizing the issue of Treasury Notes. On the 27th, in the Senate, a petition-was considered from Tobacco growers of Maryland, praying the adoption of measures by the General Government for the purpose of relieving their staple from the burdensome duties imposed by foreign countries. In the Senate, on the 23th, Mr. Smith presented Resolutions of the General Assembly of Indiana, instructing their Senators and Representatives to procure the repeal of the sub-treasury.

Clay, of Alabama presented a report and resolutions of the General Assembly of the State of Alabama, in relatiou to the controversy between the States of Georgia and Maine, growing out of the refusal of the latter State to deliver certain fugitives from justice who fled from punishment for offences committed within the jurisdiction of Georgia which were read, and ordered to be printed. The preemption bill occupied the most of this day. Mr. Wright concluded his remarks in its favor, and Mr. Clay, of Ken.

took the floor at 2 o'clock, and without concluding gave way for a motion to adjourn, at half past 3. Inlhe House, on the same day, number of private bills, which had passed the Senate, were appropriately referred, and the Treasury Note Bill taken up and discussed in Committee of the whole. iThs Senate, on the 29th, was chiefly engaged in the discussion of the pre-emption bill. In the House, same day, Mr. Morris, of Ohio, asked leave to introduce a bill to repeal the sub-treasury act, and on a motion to suspend the rules for that purpose, it was decided in the.

By this treaty it may be perceived" the French haee abandoned their allies, under Geii. Lavalle and President Rivera, to the tender mercies ol that blood-thirsty monster -Rosas. When thp news of the treaty reached Montevideo, the Government of that province (under' President Fructu-osa Rivera) immediately placed an embargo on all the vessels in that harbor, in order to prohibit their going up to er. os A ryes.

her we re at the time near three hundred merchant vessels lying there, about tweiity-fiveiif wich were American. As soon as the English and Ameri- can Commodores heard of this they formally protested against it, and ordered nil ves sels belonging to their respective nations.to get ready to leave the harbor instantly. The U. S. Corvette Marion, Commander Belt, having this moment arrived from the river, brings nirs that the greater part 6f the vessels bad got ready, and were about proceeding to sea.

Commodore Ridgely, with the S. ships Potomac and Decatur, intended reinaintnfg at the river till these difficulties were overi The U. schooner Enterprrstf, Lieut. Cum. Goldsborough, was at Rio, having in charge the American brig "Malek Ahdel," detained under a charge of piracy.

Crittenden, of Kentucky, Attorney General. John Bell, of Ten n. Secretary of the Navy, T. Ewing, of Ohio, Post Master General. Thaddeus Stevens, of Penh.

Sec. of War. The above are all of whieh report speaks with certainty. It is not supposed that North Carolina will come In for any share in the prominent appointments, notwithstanding the recommendation of" Ajax" Badger to Old Tip, Attorney General. Some inferior appointments have bet-n spoken of a3 likely to be given to the log-cabin Orators-such as U.

S. Attorney for N. Carolina, Collector of the port of Wilmington, and U. Marshal for any ot which Mr. Badger may stand a good chance notwithstanding the sneers of the -Charleston Mercury pretending not to know such a man; calling him Baxtemud Botcher We can tell the Mercury that Mr.

Badger has a stupendous notoriety throughout a territory of at least .3 miles square, bounded north by Crabtree, that he has at least a dozen admirers with whom, not. to know this gentleman is to know but little or noth ing Botcher, indeed The following is the article from the "Mercury," above alluded to: "Distbessing. The 1 Nawth Kaleena Whigs are certainly richly entitled to the indignant' sympathies of the universal Whig party. Tip has treated them in 'a way any thing but respectfully and friendly. In- his hot haste to fill his cabinet while his hand is yet on the latch, he has made Crittenden Attorney General, in contemptuous ob liviousness ot the tact that the Whig caucus ot Old Rip's Legislature had most disinterestedly volun teered an appointment to the place in the person of a Mr.

Baxter or Botcher, or somebody else, whose name we forget, but a great man in Nawth Kaleena. What'3 worse, the old fellow does not seem to have thought of any other Nawth Kaleenian for any place. 1 be least he can do when he is really Hi, wilL be to forward to the Chairman of the caucus a blank commission to be filled up out of that honorable bjdy, at its own discretion, for the Con sulship of the Island of Tom-gad-a-booh or of the Sctuy Islands.

or his friends. If Gen. Harrison is desirous of showing his gratitude to North Car olina, there are a cumber of men whose talents and character would certainly not disgrace the State and the Union such are Gaston, D. Cameron, D. li.

Swain, John Owen, and others. No party in North Carolina is so destitute of proper materials as to stoop to such a vile necessity as that hinted at above; AMERICAN HEMP, J. Jt. Secretary of the Navy, in an swer to a Resolution of the Senate, offered by Mr. Benton, has made a Report on tbe subject of A-merican water rotted Hemp, and declares it to be fully equal in quality to any imported, and that with proper encouragement and due care and attention, a sufficient quantity may be produced, not only to supply the Navy, but tbe merchant vessels of the United States, to the fullest oxtent of their require ments.

JJy We learn, from the Lincolnton Republican of the 27th ult. that G. W. Caldweix, esq. of Mecklenburg, has been nominated by a portion of the Democratic Republicans of Lincoln county, as the! Democratic! candidate for Congress, in that District, at the next election.

We are rejoiced to hear that this nomination gives universal satisfaction to our friends. Rey. A. H. Cowen, pastor of the Jewish Congregation in Richmond, died recently in that city.

The Compiler says his people are in great affliction at their loss, and that "there could be no more ardent devotion than he evinced in ihe cause of the Jews of the meliora ion of their, political and elevation of their moral condition and at this pejiod an era as it were in their history, his lossia severally felt by them." 7 i'-l ICf" It is supposed that there are $750,000 out, in notes; of the Old United States Bank, the greater portion of which are supposed to be destroyed. 3 Gov.

Further plots against the life of the French king are spoken of. 7 There is a prospect of a war.between Spain and Portugal. A Spanish force has been marched to the frontiers of Portugal, to await a defini'e to certain demands, fixed for the 4jh of January. It is probable that Great Britain will interfere id this quarrel, as she is the ally of Portugal.

There is a probability of a war between France and Morocco, in consequence of an insult offered to the British Consul at Tanjiers. War'ike preparations have commenced tn Ger many, in consequence of similar ones being made by France. It is reported that the.organizatioa of a combined Prussian, Austrian, and Army has been resolved upon. SENATOR RIVES, If the triumph of Federalismjn Virginia by the election of Mr. Rives, affords any consolation jto that gentleman, he must be composed of the most extraordinary materials.

The very day after his election ne was requireu to "expunge" tne "ex punging resolution," Ibr which he voted and in fa vor of which he spoke. The following from the Richmond Enquirer, well describes tht position of the new Senator. He goes like a servile to his task, and at the command of unkind masters i The expunge and the Anti-Bank Resolu tion. i I. Mr.

Cropper's resolution has called out some de velopments in the House. It seemed strange e-nough in the very outset of the business, that the very day after the Whigs elected Mr. Ries, they should put his nose to the grindstone. iOh Monday they -elect the "Little Expunger," as they once sneerinslv called him and on thev sub ject him to the office of expunging one of his most prominent acts. I Ins is an inconsistency as little creditable to the Whigs as it respectful to their eleve.

But it is only a shadowing form of the se vere drudgery to which they are about to subject him. When the resolution was first submitted last week, what said a Delegate from Norfolk coun ty ''Let the resolution, said he, lie on the table till next week, and Lwillgo with the gentleman from' Accouiac I'll love to apply the lash! to the little man, and make him kiss the rod; with which he smote the How did the same gentleman wind np his speech on the.election of for Mr. Rives, if he would rescind the eipungrng Now, they have applied the lash to the Little! Man, and they are trying to make kiss the rod. But Mr, Langhorne wa3 not the only Whig who expected this duty at his hands. On Tuesday the resolution was taken up, and pressed! through the House by the force of the gag law an4 the previous question.

"Mr. Cropper (no political; friend of Mr. Rives, to be sure, though a Whig,) declared, on calling up his that he r. Rives to know what we expected Irop him, to tract'hivsteps." Ay, and Mr. Rives is destined to have the.

whole Whig game played but upon him, if they should have the power, not only to rescind the expunge, but to expunge all; his; speeches all his Rote's to vote for a Bank' of the -United States, and reverse all his measures, General Bayly was too well of the dirty work, which the new Senator is to do and he de- clared on Tuesday, that whilst he should support the resolution, he did not wish to see ft pass, to em barrass Mr. Rives, for Heaven knows be would be embarrassed enough, although some people say that he be embarrassed by nothing 7.

HARRISON, An abolition Convention assembled at Ohio, on the 20th ult. from which we gather the views the abolitionists in reerard to Gen. Harrison.

John 0 H. Purdy, editor of a federal whig" abolition pa per at- Xenia, stated that he had supported Gen Harrisony and in so doing he repelled the charge that he was supporting slavery. "Time," he said "will show that the election of Gen. Harrison has done much for Abolitionism." i i THE STATE DEBTORS AND THE WHIGS During the session of the last Legislature, a Res olution was passedcalling on the Treasurer for the names of "the debtors to the Literary and Internal Improvement Funds. The whigs.

at first, were alarmed at the proposition, and evinced a great deal of horror at exposing the names 0 the -debt orsj out anamg it wouia operate gTeauy again 51 1 A. .1 fhem to vote down the Resolution, they consented bytacking on a to appoint a Committe 10 inmilre into the solvency of the debtors. But 71 mark the duplicity of the whiggery. They made a great flourish in passing the Resolution, knowing that they had a door to creep out at. The Treasur eir reported that he had not the Bonds, and therefore could not give the names.

The Resolution was then re-considered and laid on the table. The "whigs" hid, during tha electioneering canvass, published the fact where it was known that Demo crat? had borrowed of this fund, and greatly exaggerated the bat when they had the power to mete outeyen handed justice, they, faultered be cause justice would not suit their purposes of de ception and humbug. The Treasurer would have had no difficulty in obtainiug the information from the Governor's Office as we understand he had on other matters. The people had a right to know the names of the debtors it is their money, and the creditor certainly has right to know the name of his debtor. But this would not suit the f'whigs," as the members of 'their party are undoubtedly the largest borrowers, and: they could not think ofj ex po-ing their own electioneering falsehoods by their own Legislative acts.

ITIr. Sadjrer and the $2590. We find the following account of services ren dered by Mr. Badger, in the Fayettevflle North Carolinian of the 30th ult. for which our "whig," "reform," "economical" Legislature awarded him the' above sum.

Our legislators must have been very anxious to involve the State more deeply in debt, or to reward a partizan, or both, from, what we perceive in the statement below "Now we have been informed that the fact 3 are these: That Judge Badger weot on to 'Washing ton to argue the cause remained there a week or two, visiting, and attending upon the debates in Congress; came away without arguing it, and left it in the charge of Mr. Webster. As to his expenses being $500, if necessary expenses are meant it is as- supremely ridiculous, as it is untrue. The highest per diem board is $2 50; the highest weekly board 14 and by the year, good board can be had in any '-of our cities, at from 7 to 10 per week, and that the journey to and from Washington city to Raleigh could not hive exceeded 55. But 7 months the whole fare from Washington to Fayetteville, was but $21.

So that his Honor might have resided a year in Washington, for less than 500; and his actual neces sary expenses for the short lime he did re tain, ought not to have exceeded $100.1 As to the value of the suit bein "more than half a million of dollars," it' is all fudge and like the S500 expenses; humbuggery to make the appropriation pass with the people." SHAMEFUL, ABUSES. We i are told that some of the subscribers to "whigVnewspaper3, are in the practice of behaving in a most scandalous manner. Some take the paper for awhile, and.thed deny having subscribed, hoping to evade the payment by an excuse for this attempt to cheat. Others order the paper stopped, when in say not a word about the payment thereby violating the terms of, the contract in'ihe hope, no doubt, that the "whig-' Editors will not be able To enforce payment till the account is outuf date, when they may have "a legal excuse for Otheri "cut stick" and leave both Printer and 'Postmaster in the lurch. Other3, a-gaid, much less.

criminal, to be sure, than the foregoing, are very forgetful as to the "times and seasons," and let their accounts run from year to year, and then, wonder. that the printer should have the impertinence to send a "Collector" to them! From any and all of the foregoing we wish the "whig" Editors deliverance." We notice these matters, lest qnjf of our Democratic Republican frisnds should jail into such negligencier and criminalities. 1 1 SPRING CIRCUIT. Arrangement of the Circuits for the Spring of 1941.
