The dbliciion Of an interesting .Jamay, by DIS
closing The name ofthe unfortunate officer"
Will not the public be extremely surprised
at this singular tenderness and delicscy on
the part OF the Clay Editors , They have
sought every occasion TO sssail every man
connected with the President, even without
the slightest proof or pretence but now
that the Sergeant at Arms of the House Of
Represen comes out and admits, in a
letter to the House resigning his trust, that
he has abused it-that he has applied the
money received for the members TO his own
use T; they will not mention his name, through
tenderness to the unfortunate officer! They
merely tell the public that he was Jackson
officer. There are two or three Jackson
officers connected with the House Of Rep
resentatives, and to them we owe the duty
to contradict this falsehood Of the Opposition
press The defauter is Mr.. Dunn, late
Sergeant.at Arms, Clay man. And THU
is the reason why so much delicacy is ebscr

The threatened Artillery has been dis
charged--,he torpedo has exploded-the
mine hns been sprung and strange to tell
only one man has been scratched, and
that barely skin deep. o noble and il
lustrious Knight what cloud of disap-
pointment and misfortune hangs over
thy destinies-thy mighty arm directs the
blow, but fate turns aside the harmless
weapon. We asked for mercy; that was
refused; but in spite Of intended ven
geance, I'VE arc enabled to take upon our
selves our own defence, which is all we
shall attempt. The individual who has
been abused on our account, may or
may not take up arms. We deem him
capable, and leave him to his own re-
sources.
"Praise from a friend, or censure from foe
Are lost on hearers, that our merits know"
1t is astonishing that the blood and
carnage" editor should hold the New
port Representation SO sacred as not to
allow their public acts to be subject of
investigation by their consti.uents.--
Heaven knows be has no regard for de-
cency, or even truth, when he pounds
with his own pestle; or takes extracts
from others of his own kidney, vilifying
the best men ofour country, who happen
to be supporters of the great Republican
cause. But enough for their nonse ense.-
Does sawney think that the thin. .daub of
his white-wash will satisfy the freemen
of Newport that their representatives full
ly discharged their duty, and acquitted
themselves with honour in the Railroad
question? If they had good defence, it
has fallen into bad hands; but as they
have bad case, they have made toll
cradle selection, if it was selection OF
their own.
1t is enough to raise the smile of con-
tempt, to see the "BIood and Carnage
editor lay down for us rules of political
modesty.

BLAsPHEMoUs HYPOCRISY.

On the 9th ult. in the Senate of the
United States, Henry Clay, the war,
pestilence and famine" orator, introduced
resolution for the appointment Of
select committee of both Houses to re-
quest the President to appoint day of
prayer and humiliation, that good peo-
pie may devoutedly supplicate the
Throne of Mercy, to avert from this land
that devastating scourge, the Asiatic Chol-
era; o,ifpermitted to visit us, that he would
in his tender mercies, meliorate the dis
ease, and stay its avenging hand. In all
this, we most heartily and sincerely unite.
But that this should proceed from Hem
ry Clay, is the very climax ofhypocricy,
il moi of absolute impiety. Two years
have hardly elapsed, when this same
Senator, on another occasion, in bis en-
thusiasm and devotion to the god of Cins,
most sacrilegiously and impiously invob-
cd upon our beloved country the dread
ful scourges of "war, pestilcnce and fam
ine," as public BLESSINGS, in comparison
with the election Of the very President
whom he would now call upon to implore
Divine Providence to avert from this
country the Asidfic Cholera.
What comment does this afford up
on the moral rectitude of this fallen and
degraded Senator Z! To what degen-
eracy will not his ambition drive him r.
Can he really expect to promote his
chances for the Presidency, by means.

sion 1t has left on our minds, is that il
wasla dull, dogmatical contradiction of
facts which every one knew to be true,
mass of most vain and impotent con-
clusions, spiced (that it might not be
loathed for its insipidity) with such epi-
thets as "vilc abuse" or 'a6ominable libel"
Now IF they hare been viified or abused
it has not been by us. The truth tells
with sufficient force against them and
to that we stick, for we can never con-
sent for single moment to pollute our
hands with their weapons. But here
stands the fact = We say and for the
truth of our assertion we appeal to the
whole body of the General Assembly,
that Ben-Hadad accused his friend and
brother Simmons of being directly con-
cerned, and in a pecuniary point of view
benefited by the road which lie advoca-
ted with SO much vehemence. He not
only did this but in his peculiar manner.
with pointed finger, the constant reitera-
tion of"Mr. Speaker" to secure attention,
"and mods and becks and wreathed
smiles" innumerable, advised his friend
aforesaid and all those similarly situated
to leave their seats, and let legislation
take its course free from the bias with
which pecuniary considerations are so apt
to warp it. We go step further and
assert that he accused his "brother," the
Governor $50 calling him
"Oh what fine thing tis to be Brother. in Law
To very magnificent Three tailed Bushaw !'')
with having and indirect stake in the OBJ
ject contemplated What think you of
that Master Brooks And now in spite
of these facts staring them in the face,w
are to be vituperated because we urge
the removal of these unjust stcsoards, who
have not hesitated to prefer the Nam
mon of funrighteousness to the welfare Of
the state. As to the five satellites who
revolve round their great Luminary, we
will disturb neither their silence, nor the
apparent harmony of their motions at
this time, but will only remark that If
they hare any light, ,hey have either hid
it under buslel, or it is absorbed in The
all pervading brightness Of the sun of
their system, "the head and front oftheir
political offending" the immortal Ben-
Hadad. ONE OF THE People.

resolution from the House of Represen.
tatives, fixing on Monday the 9th Of July,
for the adjournment of the two Houses
of Congress, was taken up for considera-
ton; when Mr.. Grundy, stating the inn
possibility Of acting OH the resolution at
present, moved to postpone its CONSIDERS
ton till Thursday next, and to make it
the special order for that day.--The mo-
ton was agreed to.
The Vice-President laid before the
Senate a report from the Secretary Of
the Treasury, inclosing statements con
cerning the mint. n
The bill from the House, to alter and
amend the several acts imposing duties
on imports, was read twice, referred to
the Committee on Manufacturer, and
ordered to be printed. Adj.F'

Howard, of Maryland, announced the
death of Mr.. Mitchell, one Of his col
leagues. The House, after passing the
resolutions usual in similar cases, ad-
journed. [The Senate also adjourned
on receiving officially the intelligence OF
the death Of Mr.. Mitchell.1
The Senate Saturday, resumed the
consideration fthe bill to appropriate for
limited time the proceeds of the Public
Lands. The question pending being on
the motion of Mr.. Moore, indefinitely to
postpone the bill, long discussion en-
sued, and on the question being taken,
there appeared, for the indefinite post
ponement, II against, 25. The Senate
then adjourned.
In the House of Representatives, M
merous bills, authorizing payments and
appropriations were passed. The joint
resolution from the Senate, proposing
that a Committee Of both Houses wail
upon the President of the United States,
and request him to appoint a day oi
fasting and prayer for the aversion oi
the Asiatic Cholera, was read first and
second time. Mr.. Archer moved to lay
the resolution on the table, on the ground
that neither the General or State Gov
ernments had any thing at all to do on
the subject of religion, it having been
taken out Of their cognizance by the
constitution. Mr.. Whittlesey demanded
the yeas and Rays thereon which being
ordered, stood rs follows yeas 63, noes
l04. The question then being on the
third reading, some attempts were made
to amend the phraseology, which were
lost. A debate on its passage took place
between Mr.. Dearborn and Mr.. Craig
in favor, and Mr.. Davis offs. C. and Mr..
Carson in opposition. Mr.. Kerr moved
for the previous question. which being
seconded, the main question was put,
and the resolution adopted by yeas and
nays, as folIows-yeas 80. nays 50.
Adj.
The bill to renew the Charter Of the
Bank Of the United States, passed the
House Of Representatives on Tuesday,
by vote Of lO7 to IS. An amendment,
the only one adopted, retaining the three
Branches at present located in this state,
was Immediately concurred in by the
Senate. The bill therefore only requires
the signature ofthe President, to become
law.
The Senate were engaged on Tuesday
in discussion IF the Tariff bill. Several
amendments were adopted.
