F2Ow.-The receipts of King-street Flour,

Sales from stores at 4, S5 a 4, S7a-subsequent

Mr.. Taze,ceA-We regret that severe do
nestle affection has deprived the Senate Of the
talents and services of this distinguished Sena-
tor; on account of which, on motion Of Mr.. Ty-
Ter, leave of absence for the remainder of the SEES
sion, was granted to him on Wednesday last.

The following communication, which we copy
from the National Journal, will exhibit the Unit.
ed States Senate in Inundated and degraded
light. That such arrogance Oh the part Of MIR.
Duff Green should have been allowed to pass un-
punished, is disgraceful to the nation:
COMMUNICATED.
Ney Member of the Senaie.-While Judge
SMITH, of South CarUiina, was engaged on Tues
day in explaining the reasons Of his vote on Gales
& Seaton's proposition to print the old documents,
Duff Green, new member of the Senate, hand
ed over paper to the Senator, and requested
him aloud to explain it. The Judge not being
able to decypher some word, Green cried out
across the room, and supplied the word. This is
a specimen of the modesty of the s. Printer of
the Senate.' Will not this body maintain its
own dignity, or are the majority determined to
nav public libeller out of the treasury for SLAM
derriug the minority. whom, according to Judge
Smith, they have neither the talent nor the cOu-
rare to answer on the floor of the Senate? The
Judges remarks will fully elucidate the conduct
and character of the Printer of the Senate.
