We have the satisfaction Of announcing that
the Bill for the re-chartering the Bank Of the
United States, has finally PASSED both Houses
of Congress. 1t was read third time and pass
ed in the House of Representatives, yesterday,
by vote of los to sc.
The bill was then sent to the Senate, with Its
amendments, which were Immediately taken up
and agreed to by that body. So that the bill now
only wants the signature Of the President to be-
come law-this, We think we can confidently
predict, it will not receive. Of this, more here
after.
The Senate yesterday also passed the bill re-
lative to the Public Lands, which was sent to the
House, and there Immediately taken up. The
Tariff was under discussion nearly all day.
We understand that Mr.. Rush, late Secretary
of the Treasury, is on visit to Washington.
Great Political Re-action.-The following ex-
tract FROM letter received by the last mail from
! Louisville, Kentucky, exhibits an astonishing
change in public sentiment in that part of the
country, and augurs saiutary reaction IN other
quarters. The current has been evidently set
ting that way for some time, with increased force
every day--and now it seems to be moving In
mass that threatens to sweep all opposition be-
fore it.-Nai Int.

There was call made by about forty OF our
most respe otabie citizens, who had formerly sup
ported the election of Gen. Jackson, for public
meeting, to express by resolutions and otherwise.
their disappointment and dissatisfaction with the
course pursued by him and his party. and to ex-
press their determination to oppose his re-elec-
ton. That meeting was held last evening, and
was decidedly the most numerous | have ever
witnessed in our Court-house-it was full to
Overlooking. Several gentlemen who had for
mery supported the General addressed the meet
ing, and denounced in strong terms the maDrac-
tices of the present Administration, and the ire
quent bursts of applause from seven or eight hun
dred freemen, 10y which they were frequently
liuterrupted,) went to show their entire accord
ance in the sentiments expressed. Resolutions
expressing the reasons of their former support
and present opposition, we're unanimously adopt
| ed, and will be published.
A resolution approaching and expressing their
entire confidence in the nomination vt the Ma
tional Republicans. tor the office Of President
and Vice President was passed by reclamation,

| The Tar,E-SunJry amendments were yes
terday reported in the Senate by Mr.. Dickerson,
from The Committee on Manufactures, to the bill
which has passed the House Of Representatives
for the regulation Of the duties on imports. We
were not able to obtain sight OF them; but we
understand that they propose to increase the pro,
lection to certain manufactures. We should
doubt whether any material amendment of that
nature will be made in the Senate, and still more,
should such amendments, (materlai) be made IN
the Senate, whether the House OF Representa-.
tives will concur in them.-Nat. Int
Great Blast-On the 4th day of July the con-
tractors executing the work at the Point of Rocks,
intend to blow off the Rocky Point, which has
long been knotty point-the weight of rock
which it is designed to detach. is estimated at
t,cenfy thousand tons! 1t will be great blow
up, almost rivalling the late Cabinet explosion.
