No business was transacted in either House
of Congress to-day, except what appertained to
the funeral of Mr.. Alexander Smyth, one of the
Representatives from Virginia. In sober truth,
the funeral pageantry of the occasion was an
antidote to serious reflection. The Speaker
and Clerk OF the House, the President and
Clerk of the Senate, the Pall-holders, the mem
bers of the Virginia Delegation in both Houses,
and the reverend ChapIains, were decorated
with white scarfs, in addition to the Grape on

prove most heartily, of the efforts which have
been recently made by some of the Baptist
churches in Massachusetts, to induce people to
dispense with the unmeaning and unnecessary
shosos Of sorrow, which custom has entaled
upon New England. May God speed them in
their good work and if they could successfully
extend their efforts TO the metropolis of the
Union, and prevent repetition of the ridicu.

WAsHINGror. April %.

In the Senate this morning, Mr. Kane of Hi.
nols, called up the resolutions submitted yester-
day by MIR. Holmes, respecting the removing
and appointing power of the President. The
question being on the passage of the resolutions,
Mr.. Holmes took advantage of the opportunity
thus presented, to offer his sentiments in rela-
tion to the power and the manner in which il
had been exercised from the origin of the gov
eminent, to the present time, comparing and
contrasting the proceedings of former Presi-
dents, with those Of Gen. jackson. The open
ing of Mr.. Holiness speech was remarkable for
pleasantly and humor, and the remainder of il
no less so for biting sarcasm This speech, if
fairly reported and published, will do good
who frequent the White House, though they
have so long been unsusceptible of blHshing,
that nothing can be expected to change their
compilations.
In the House of Representatives, Mr.. MrDuf-
ne continued the speech on the Tariff which he
began on Monday. No runaway from Bedlam
ever roared more furiousy. The gnashing of
his teeth, and the flashing of his eyes were ter
rihc, and IT they were true index of what was
passing within, the maniac, who bites his chains
and eats his own flesh, must be supremely hap
Py IN csolness of temper, when compared with
Mr.. M Dufhe. This gentleman may be per-
1ectly sincere in his views respecting the opera
tons OF duties on imports; it would be unfair,
perhaps, to entertain a suspicion Of his entire
honesty but this concession is a libel on his
intelligence and sagacity. In the course of his
harangue to-day, Mr.. Nj Duffie undertook to &C.
| count for the number of friends to the protect
| ing system that now appears in the House, and
attributed it to the influence of manufacturing
capital, in elections. To demonstrate the prop
osltion, he said there was one man in his own
district, formerly strong anti-tariff man, who
became suddenly converted to tariff doctrines,
and set up a mandatory of cotton bagging
Such was the influence Of this mans capital
that, It there were another established at the
other end of the district, they might, together

cate of the tariff. 1t is very possible Mr.. M
Duffie may be right in his calculation as to the
result of such an increase of manufacturing in
his district; but his inference that the result
would be produced by any corrupting influence
of the capital, is altogether wrong it would be
produced Oy the practical demonstration of the
utility of the domestic manufacture.
Mr.. M'Dufie will probably close his argu.
ment, and relieve the House from the tortures

expected that he will be answered by MIR. Davis

answered him by summarily declaring that the

a quarter of mile from HE house, (accom-

found small tree suitable for his business
he commenced cutting it down, which in its
fall, lodged on another tree. He then an

took an unexpected direction, and struck
Reardon on the breast, throwing him down
backwards, his head striking on a rock, and

FRAUDS IN TIE REPoRTs OF DEBATES. The
printer of the Senate is in the practice of ap.
plying to members of the minority in that body
for their speeches or remarks on interesting sub
jects. When he obtains them, he is also in
the habit, as we have learnt on good authority,
OF submitting them to the Administration Sen,
ators' These Senators write out the bestrepy
they can to such speeches or remarks-often
leaving out such parts of their own as have
been successfully answered; and then the
speeches thus falsified are published in the Tel
egraph as the true debate This fraudulent
practice was resorted to in the debate on sub
scribing to the old documents, and in the de.
bate on the abuse of the removing power. Com.

White and share with them a-third Of the
$1,000, which he was informed Joseph
Knapp, offered to the person who would
commit the deed-that he refused to en-
gage, and next evening left Salem--re-
turned on the 9Th, the day Of the funeral,
and saw the Crowninshieids- he saw
at their shop a hatchct which he supposed
was used in the murder, and hid the same
away-that the Crowninshields told him
the daggers were melted. Palmer deni-
ed all personal knowledge fthe murder,
der, but said he could disclose other i'm
portant facts.
One Of the incidents related by Knapp,
in his confession, says the Gazette, is
worthy ofnotice, as an indication Of the
remarkable cold-bloodedness with which
the assassin pursued his "dreadiultrade "
At the interview which Knapp had with
him in the centre Of the Mall, he informed
X. that he had seen it stated in the news
papers that l3 stabs were found in the
body, but that he did not give more than
four or five. Knapp replied, that perhaps
he was little agitated, and could not re-
member exactly. The assassin said" No,
for after he had done for the old man, he
put his fingers upon his pulse, to make Ger
tain he was dead"
The Knapps are the same young men
who few Necks ago pretended to have
been attacked by highwaymen, on the
road, near Wcnham Pond, an account OF
which was published in the newspapers.
j. X. acknowledged that the whole was
a fabrication. Vcry few people, in this
quarter, believed the story-as was init
mated in>his paper at the time. ]--Bost
