THEcLo5E o. Tie SESSION.


terminated The ifsi Session oil the Twenty -hrs'
| Congfess.
We shail shortly publish complete List of
the Acts which uave passed during the Ses-
| siOn.
Ofthe uills which passed on Saturday even
ing last IL will be observed, that the President
pnl his r6to upon one Of great importance 10
hi. District and 10 the upper pari OF the State
Of Maryland mud the whole Western country.
and in which. as a connecting link Of the great
National Road TO the Wesi, the whole Union
was Interested.
II will DC seen, also. thai the bill for making
an additional appropriation for the Louisville
aud Portland Cauni. ind tho general bill co.,
cerning Light houses, buovf. harbors, &c. have
been retained by the President for hiller
consideration. Tins course is believed 10 he
without precedent, but IS nut on that ground
ohie ciionable, il legal We have looked into
The Constitutions. aud suppose that. from lis
phraseology, IL the President shall al any tile
hereafter. during his Presidency, sign these
bills they will become laws Such was GER
tsinly not the intention OF the Constitution nor,
we suppose is il the intention oil the President TO
retain these bills, beyond the time necessary
or their due consideration. One of these bills
il of description which has annually received
the sanction oil all the branches OF the Govern.
ment Tor these many years past, and IN WHICH
in the prsent instance, although The aggregate
amount involved is notiarge, tWeniy ofhe States
Of This Union, besides the Territories, are more
| or less Interested.
! The determination of tho President in re.
gard 10 these three last bills, produced more OF
II sensation than any thing that usually occurs
NJ he close OF a session Of Congress. The Ad-
ninlsration is considered, by the rejection of
The Rockville and Frederick Road Bill, TO have
Int. al
much more decidedly than WAS looked for gen
eIally.
Anoyel proceeding, yesterday is the message
of The President qualifying his appreciation of
one Tho bills which he sgued. II Is supposedly
.ome that this qualification may effect the
construction OF the part ofihe bHl TO which II
refers. This idea, however, must be erroneous /;
AS il is palpahly contrary III the genius Of the
Coo 3liinion that the President shall make 10y
constru,ug) the laws, md than execute them.
The law must he lndged by ITS terms anu not
