FRIDAY I (J, l-'ElittUAHY 3 VVf.ustkh's l'noTKsr. Wo invito lie particular nttcnt ion ol every rentier to Mr Webster's manly and eloquent protest against mutilating tho records) of llio Sen ntc. It is a masterly production, ml will lio road with interest an interest heightened by the mournful reflection that Mich utianswoinblo reasoning and such on rip pcnl in bchnlf ol thu Constitution, should avail naught against the bohi'ils of party. Wo envy not tho feelings vf that person who can rend unmoved this appeal in be half of the sanctity of the Constitution, this solemn protest ogniiift an unhallowed attack upon it: still loda do wo envy those who could silently listen to its author while pronouncing it, without blush of shame mantling their cheeks. Every sentence must have been a dogger their hcnrls and however little, to outward nppca ranee, 'they were moved, their very life blood must liuvc curdled in their veins at hat significant rolemn conclusion "Our duty is perform-Med.

Wc rescue our names, chnrnctor and ''honor, from all participation in this and whatever the wayward character "of the limes, ilic headlong and plunging 'spirit of parly devotion, or the fear or the "hivo of power, may have been able to ''bring about elsewhere, we desire to thank that ihry have not, a-'ol overcome, "the love of liberty, fidelity to true repub-'henn and a sacred regard fur Hie Constitution, in that Stale whose soil 'was drenched to a mire, by the first and Inst blood of the Revolution."

Our readers are aware of the modo in which judges and legislators have been accustomed to do things in Arkansas. They will now have an opportunity of wit. ncssing the same mode of operating in the Senato of tho United States.

Mr Senator Soiver lias distinguished himself in a recent debate, by two or tbreo mennccs which indicate his eminent qualification for the seat ho occupies. When the Land Bill was before the Senate on Friday last, Mr. Seiver said that tho western members had been waiting very patiently for a clinngn of parties in Congressin which event they had been promised that their claims should he attended to. But now he had found that there was un vote to bo depended on except that of the western mem hers. Ah for hinifeolf, Mr Seiver said that ho would not vole for the Bill, wife it was put into a form that would benrfil the We tern States' If it did not assume thai form.

11 would vote for reducing the Tariff' and for the Distribution Hill of the Senator from South Carolina Hero was a threat. Logislolion is now to bo openly made a mntter of log rolling. "You voto for one if you don't I'll vote against this, that, and the other, to the end of chnptcr." This tuny be a very propor wny lo do things in Arkansas, hut it liftrillv tiorninna 11 Knnntnr 1 of the United Status. Mr Grundy said (hot thu Bill was a part of a plan to relievo the country of its super abundant menu). If it should tint pa-s, it would hccnini! necessary to disturb the Compromise Act, by reducing the revenue arising from the duties on imports.

Mr Walker said dint ho would rather repeal tho whole TunffBill than violato the principle that tin more money should bu collected than is required by die wants of thu Government. Mr Jitcs Mr Juslico Niles of Connecticut observed that ho voted for many bills to oblige the west, which went very hard against his conscience and he was still ditposcd to do sol Hero is a conscientious Senator for you! disposed to vote for many bills which go very hard against his conscience! Mr Btak told die Western Senators in effect that they must now see thhat the promises hold out to them in the event of tho administration party becoming a majority, were all futile and that no such purpose as the benefit of the West was kept in view, lie saw no propriety in the reference to die Tariff Bill. He would say that he considered the national faith as pledged to sustain tlio Compromise Bill. He had pledged his consti tionts as far as he could, and in no contingency would ho vote for an innovation upon it, except it should be called for by those most interested in it. Here is Mr JVilcs voting against Ins conscienceand Mr Seiver threatening to voto for cutting down tho Tariff and for the Distribution Bill unless his brother Sen ators ofthc administration parly keep their minority-promises! Mr walker and Mr Grundy too, put the question on Ihu same ground "vote as we wish, or wc will brenk up the Compromise, and whittle down die Turiff lo nothing." Is this a decent modo lo legislation? Is this upright and deco rous argument? Why on the same principle the Northern members of Congress might turn upon those from the South and South West with the menace "Disturb the Compromise and we will abolish Slave, ry in the District if Columbia.

If contracts are but parchment if solemn agreements arc not binding hmo can you appeal lo tin Constitution for protection on the subject of AbAilion in the District?" Would this be a legitimate mode of reasoning And yet we have the grave example of reverend Senators to Misiuin it Bost. Atlas. The English nppcar to be as short of food, as wc arc of flour.

Benton. It seems (list this great cxpungor has been sitting for his portrait, and that tho urlist had just finished it, as the Senator's bolder dash speech on thu expunging question a p. pcarcd in the Washington Globe. Tho Courier thus describes the scene after the Knight of the Black lints inflated nearly In bursting with pompous self-importance, ro paited lo llio artist's studio: The Senator onti-ml Hi complacently upon the enchanting picture: i uiiauu iur a lew moments, nnd then in notes, soft as tho cooing of the gentlo dove, addressing llinnalnter. ho ftnid Vim tinvn heard ofthe famous Expunging Speech?"

Extraordinary Operation. Some days since, a young lady, daughtor of one of our most opulent citizens, while endeavoring to pick out a knot in a thread with cambric needle, the needle suddenly broke in two pieces, and the pointed half was sent with great force into her eye, where it penetrated to a considerable depth.

The dreadful pain in consequence can be belter conceived than described. Physicians were immediately sent for, and after trying in vain gave up the attempt lo extricate the needle, which had forced its way through the external coats of the eye. Dr Scuddur, the ingenious oculist was finally sent for, but not until fears were entertained that the needle would penetrate into tho brain and cause death, which in all probability would have been tho case. The Doctor was given lo understand that the eye was considered as lost, and that the only hopes of the lady's parents were, that the needle could ho extricated, anil the liteol their only daughter saved. Dr Scuddcr immediately proceeded to an examination and at once pronounced that he could extricate the needle and preserve the eye.

He or dercd an anodine and when the patient was comparatively easy from its effects, made a small incision with a delicate oper ating knife; then by means of a powerful magnet, he drew the needle so near the surface ns to grasp it with a pair of "mag netised tenaculum forceps," and as quick as thought, the needle was in the palm of his hand. By means of a mild colly num or eye wash, the intlnmation quicKly subsided, and llio yoUllf Indv i pninrl-'j- is now as buoyant and happy as if nothing had occurred. Many of the instruments that Dr Scudder uses are of a peculiar construction, and of his own invention, JV. Y. Star.
