rtom the National Intelliceuner.

Yesterday, + eb. l2,) was remarkable day
at the Capitol. in both wings of the building
The SENATE, however, was the scene of the
most interest. 4 multitude of both sexes filled
the Hall; profound silence and gravity pre-
rallied, and deep sensation was evlnced, as
much by the general silence as by the marked
interruption Of it once or twice by audible emo
tons. The subject OF Debate was Mr.. GAYS
promised motion for a compromise of the Tar
if His bill was received, and read first aud
second time. A copy of it, and sketch of
the Proceedings upon it, will be found in their
proper place.
In the House Of Representatives., the same
subject, (the Tarid9 was under consideration,
with a variety of propositions, of which, some
account will be found under the proper head,
but more particular account will be given in
our next. There was excitement enough in
this House, too, but, as usual, it was of lives
lier character than that in the Senate.

CHARACTERIZATION.
For the Whir.

For the Wing.
have seen and read in the Sangamon Journal a
letter dated Vandaa, Feb. 49, giving an account Of
the speeches made the trial Of Judge Smith before
the High Court of Impeachment. The writer seems
to concede the palm to the leading manager Mr..
Mills am not disposed to underrate him at ALL or
too detract in the least from his claims; but nv own
opnion is that the result Of the trial affords some ey
idence Of the ability of the respondents COUNSEL
Many Of the Senators who attended the trial were
strongly prejudiced against the Judge from reports
put in circulation by his enemies; it was, therefore,,
great object with his counselto allay those prejudi-
ces, and prepare their minds for conviction. This
successfully accomplished by the leading counsel
as he was styled, of the respondent. attentively
listened to all the speeches. and considering the object
the Judges counsel had in view, must say, that
never heard speech well calculated to effect it, as
that delivered by Mr. B-eese. In argument no was
at all times powerful and otentimes invncible; and
in the otier flights Of eloquence he proved himself
not inferior to any lawyer who has yet appeared be-
fore any court in this State. 1t expected there
would be contest for superiority between himself
and Mr.. Mills, and in his exordium, he challenged
the leading manager to the combat which the latter
declined accepting Mr.. Mills did not disappoin.
public opinion-his was handsome speech Mr.
Breese did disc rpoint the expectation of his best
friends; inp much as he proved himself much ADLER
man tn they had considered him. Upon the whole,
II was never pleased than was with the efforts
|of both gentlemen. They have proved themselves
to presses talents of the highest order, and their
right to hold rank among the first in our State, will
not be disputed. As citizen of the State, / am
proud of both of them; and hope that they may be
called by the people to them either in the halls
of Congress the BENCH or some other exalted
station where choice talents necessary.

The nsso Secretary Of the Tfeasury The
Richmond Enquirer thus alludes 10 the quahfi.
cations Of VIM. j. Duane. Esq for the imPor-
tant Office to which he has been sppointed:-
"Being less known to the Union than hun.
dreds Of inferior mea--havins filed very compa.
ra,ively little space in the public eye-never hav-
Ing figured in Congress or 10 the Executive De-
partmept Of the Government, his appointment
will scarcely be hailed with that feeling Of appro-
baton, which it 20 richly deserves. We feel,
therefore, impelIed TO throw N our own mite Of
tribute to the qualifications Of this gentleman, for
the situation to which he has been called. We
have no personal acquaintance with W.. J. Du.
ane-but we have some peculiar opportunity Of
being acquainted with the reach Of his abilities,
and the tone Of his sentiments. The readers Of
the Enquirer are DO strangers to them, although
they are scarcely aware Of the fact. We should
pronounce Mr.. Duane 10 be q man Of an active.
strong, bold. penetrating mind-of great indus
try and persevering research--clear and firm in
bis purposes-and a sterling republican in his
principles. He understands distinctly the cha.
rarter Of the Bank OF the United States--its de-
signs and it dangers. On that cardinal subject,
we have no doubt. I've will deserve and com aiant
the confidence Of the friends Of the Constitution.
