GRATITUDE TO LAFAYETTE.
in SENATE.

IuesdaY, ecem5pr 2I.-The Senate,
according TO the order of the day, took W
the bill making provision for Gen. La
fayette; and no amendment being propos-
ed thereto, the question was about to be
put on ordering the bill to be read third
time
Mr.. Macon rose, and said it was with
painful reluctance that he felt himself
obliged to oppose his voice to the passage
of this bill. He admitted to the full ex-
tent claimed for them the great and meri-
torious services of Gen. Lafayette, and he
did not object to the precise sum which
this bill proposed 10 award to him I; but he
was opposed upon principle to making
an appropriation, in any case or under
any circumstances &c. &c.
MIR. Brown of Ohio was opposed to the
details OF the bill. He should like to
knowywhat evidence had induced the COM
mittee to suppose that the amount propos-
ed was the proper amountofcom pensation.
He should like toknow how far the propos-
ed appropriation was grounded on claims
for services or for expenditure &c. &c.
Mr.. Hayne, of S. Carolina, replied to
Hlessrs Macon and Brown. He entered
at some length into the merits of the bill
He conjured gentlemen who concurred in
the principle of the bill, to come prepared
to surrender their peculiar views in rela.
ton to the details &c.
The bill was then ordered to be engros.
sed for third reading.
Mr.. Smith, of Maryland, entirely &C.
corded in the suggestion of the gentleman
from South Carolina, that whatever was
done on this subject, if done, ought to be
done quickly, moved that the bill should
have its third reading this day.
The engrossed bill making provision for
Gen. Lafayette was accordingly read &
third time: and the question being stated
on lis passage
Nlr. Noble, of Indiana, protesting due
sense Of the merits and claims of Gen
Lafayette, said, that, nevertheless, TO bill
shaped as this was, he could not give hi:
sanction. If, for opposing it, the nation
or his constituents thought proper TO con
denim him, he was perfectly willing to d
bide their verdict. To shew that he was
so, he asked for the Yeas and Nays on th1
question of the passage of this bill
The Yeas and Nays were ordered ac
cordingly, and were taken as follows:
YEAS-Messrs. Barbour, BeuIgny, Branch
Chandler, Clayton, Dickerson, Eaton, jackson
johnson, of KY. johnson, Louis. Kelly, King o
AIab. King of N. Z. Knight, Lanman, Lloyd, o
Mass Lloyd, of Maryland, Edwards Elliott

Iucr, Parrot, Seymour, Smith, Talbot, Taylor
xAhomas, Van Buren,, Van Dyke, Williams
NAYS.-Messrs Barton, Bell, Brown, Cobb
Macon, Noble, Rugslcs.
So the bill was passed and sent TO tn
House Of Representatives for concurrence

THE RECESS.
HYMN.


The following Hymn was sung at Salem, Mas:
on Tuesday week, at the conservation OF
New Church in that place. This simple dc
n votional piece is from the pen and from tn
heart of the Rev. MIR. Pierpont, of Boston, I'll
author of the Airs of Palestine.
o Thou, TO whom, in ancient time,
The Tyres of Hebrew 5ards were strung,
Whom kings adored in song sublime,
And prophets praised with glowing tongue.
Not now, on lions height alone,
Thy favored worshpper may dwell
Not where, at sultry noon, thy Son
Sat, weary, by the Patriarch's well.
From every place below the skies,
The grateful song, the fervent prayer
The incense OF the heart-may rise
To Heaven; and end acceptance there.
In this, Thy House, whose doors we now
For social worship first unfold,
To thee the suppliant throng shall bow,
While circlng years on years are rolled
70 Thee, shalt Age, with snowy hair,
And Strength, and Beauty, bend the knee,
And Childhood lisp, with reverend air,
Its praises aud lis prayers TO Thee.
Oh Thou, to whom, i'll ancient time,
The Tyre of prophet bards was strung,
To Thee, at last, in every cline
Shall temples rise and praise be sung.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.



MIR. Randolph moved that the orders Of
the day be dispensed with, in order to
take up the bill concerning General Lafay-
cite. Mr.. Beecher hoped the House would
Tot consent to do so-but the question not
admitting debate, it was put and carried
by large majority.
The House accordingly went into com
nitleeof the whole on that bill, Mr.. Marx
Icy in the chair; and the bill having been
read,
Mr. Campbell, Of Ohio, rose, and said,
that il might appear uncourteous in any
gentleman to oppose the passage of bill
having such an object as that now before
the committee yet, under present circum-
ktances, brought in as that bill had been,
HGddenIy upon the House, and called, as
gentlemen we're to act upon it, without the
opportunity of consultation, or moments
reflection, be felt it TO be his duty to OPP
rose lis farther progress. This might,
