The Washington Telegraph insnuates that the
President Mr.. Secretary Clay Scc. attended In per-
son the election of President pro tempore OF the
Senate and were open in their efforts TO defeat
the venerable Macon, that Mr.. Fazewell actually
rose in his place, and in direct terms pointed TO
this barfaced abuse of Office, remarknS in the
presence of these dignitaries, {" That the Senate
should lock their doors and do their business them
Selves The National Journal endeavors TO creep
out of this dilemma, (although the statement IN
the Telegraph is not pretended 10 be contradcted)
by remarting that it after dinner, " consid-
erng the state of morbid suspicion which charac-
terizes (Mr. razewell) created no surprise In
other words, that Mr.. Tazewel inebriated

One of the Virginia Senators should not be attend
ed TO because he is crazy. The other, Little.on
Waller Tazewell, is unworthy of confidence be
cause he is a drunllsrd. Drowning men catch at
straws Mr.. Adams had better put his house in
order. He will soon be laid upon his political
death bed.
We have been furnished with the following ex-
.ract OF letter dated at Washington, on the % n
ut, from the most undoubted authority. II Will
shew satisfactorily the principles upon which our
Senators in Congress, Messrs. Cobb and BerrIen
have acted in the delicate situation in which they
placed during the discussions relative 10 the
Creek Treaty -
c. The principles on which they (Messrs. Berrien
and Cobb) acted were these. They denied he right
OF the General Government TO annul the treaty,
insisting that Georgia had acquired vested rights
Under it, which could not be taken from her with
out her consent. They said they were ready to
meet the question Of Fraud and repel il by evil
dence properly taken, but they denied that the
parte evidence taken by Gaines and Andrews, in a
proceeding wholly collateral, was either competent
or credible. - When they found their efforts would
be unavailing, that treaty would be made an
nulling the old one, they endeavored to obtain Tor
the State much land as they could, but distinctly
told the Secretrry that they would oppose the new
Treaty, even with the supplemental article, because
all the lands in Georgia not coded in express
terms, and because they denied the constitutional
power of Congress to abrogale the old and
when the fraud which had stained this bargain
had been brought TO light, they took occasion 10
express in terms which they thought appropriate
TO the occasion, their views of the whole subject
They have thus dealt frankly with the administra-
ton, and have asserted the rights of Georgia
When the debate, on The bill appropriating money
FOR carrying the new treaty into effect is published
the temporary triumph Of their opponents who
assert the purity Of that instrument, will he con
verted into humiliation such is certainly the state
TO which it has reduced the admin strstlon."
