"After long and animated discussion, the
House to-day determined to go into the cleo
ton Of United States Senator, when GEN.
SAMUEL SMITH was reelected withou! op-
position.
"The proceedings so far have been very UNI
interesting, and there appears too great dispo-
sition in members TO delay the Introduction OF
measures which they deem important. | am
apprehensive that the session will be long,
and from appearances, an improbable one"
Extract Of another letter 10 the Editors.
"To-day the Legislature went into the cleo.
ton Of United States Senator. Considerable
efforts "ere made to postpone the election, blu,
in vain. The message was introduced by Mr..
STRIcKER, who supported the propriety Of 60
ing into the election with much zeal and argu.
ment. On counting the ballots il was found
tina: GENERAL SAMUEL SMITH was u.
unanimously elected. No one else was put in

The Editor Of the National Gazette makes
the following remarks upon Mr. Burgess:
"The surviving Revolutionary officers owe
much to Mr.. Burgess, of r. I. for the eloquent
and instructive speech with which he urged
their claims, in Congress, on Thursday last.
1t has afforded US particular qualification even
in the merely rhetorical parts; which, though
very fervent, could scarcely be too warm, from
the nature Of his subject"
