THE EXAM MIN E r /.

IlFE E6ito- is fully sensible OF the dibcuy ana re-
sponsibility whichat all times present themselves
in an undertaking Of this kind, and more particularly
since the introduction of new political heresy..
The Editor rs, moreover. aware Of the turmoil ana
perpexty If the vocation he is about to assume; but
he feels as every patriot should feel when he percees
the approaching danger OF dissolution OF she ohIon
and the destruction of the free Institutions of this great
Republic that it is his duty to vindcate and sustain
the rights of the people, and expose to public gaze
the irtrigues and duplicity Of selfish and designing
men.
The Editor will support the present Administration.
He is personally and politically the friend OF the Chief
Magistrate. He believes no man, except Zen. wash
ngton, possessed in so great degree the conn
tence of the American People; and surely no msa
ever better deserved it.
The eminent difficulty, at this time. to ascertain the
political tenets OF certain sspirans in relation 20 many
great national questions renders It necessary that the
Editor should here remark that ne holds the doctrines
of the late Proclamation Of the President OF the Un''e
States to be strictly orthodox, and such as were enter
tanned and nculcated by the immortal Washington
On these doctrines will depend the future deSuhy OF
this great Coufederacy.
The Examiner will be open to full, fearless hut
decoros discussion of all matters relating to the affairs
of the nation, the public conduct OF public men, anu
the exposition of every NAL practice IN ohce.
On the question of the Bank the Editor has rem sct
ed much, and as he is not indebted to that institution
for loans, any other favor, he will be when
he states that IL s his opinion the fiscal relations OF the
Government and Country require Bank OF some sort;
but whether the present be the best, OF whetner II
should be modified, will be the subject OF future dis
cussion.
As regards the question Of Domestic Industry, the
Editor cam with much sincerity declare, that he be.
leyes nothing tends to improve. adorn and enrich
the country than the laudable exertions OF our manu-
facturers
The Skill the capital, and untiring enterprise which
are now employed in the elaboration OF the various
productions of the soil, will at no very distant period
make us one of the most ouri,hing and Independent
nations earth.
Nature appears to have bestowed upon us what she
has refus-d to every other peope-a country embrac
ing a the variety Of climate and SOIL and Yielding all
the various productions of the earth, necessary 10 the
comfort of man
To the People Of the District of Columbia and par
tculary to those of this City, the Editor would beg
leave remark. that he feels lively interest in eve,
~ thing which relates to the future prosperity of the
place surveyed end located under the immediate and
special auspices ofthe great Washington.

Intelligence from the seat Of war in Belgium,
is to the Sth of December, inclusive.
The journals of observers at the scene of action
give hourly notice Of every occurrence. Through
out the whole OF the 9Th Of December. the attack
was vigorously piled by the assailants. Mus.
kets, as we'll as bombs, were discharged by the
brsieged without interruption.
All approach TO the town by water. was cut

tercourse with his friends without the citadel.
The works Of the besiegers are hourly advanc.

King is only holding out to await the issue of
their election.

NEW RULE.

In the House of Representatives. on Saturday
last, the resolution offered BY Mr.. Thomas OF
Louisiana, came up for consideration:
Resolved, That the l3th Rule of this House
be rescunded, and the following adopted IN place
thereof-The Speaker shall have the regulation
of such parts of the Capitol and its passages. as
are or NAV be Set apart for the use Uf the House
aud its Officers.
Mr S;ci.ht called for the reading of the rule
which the resolution went to rescind; and it was
read accordingly.
Mr. Nickffe said that he was in favor of the
object which he understood the mover to have in
view in Offering this resolutions; but he was against
placing too much power IN the hand OF any one
man; aud he hated to rescind the rule which had
been read He thought the purpose of the gen
teman from Louisiana might be faliy answered
by the addition of two words to the rule as it
nnw stood; these were the words, '.and ladies. :"
Ii the gentleman would accept this modification
of his resolution, it would answer the end as we'll
az in the form proposed 0y the gentleman.
Mr.. Thomas said he aould with pleasure ac-
ccpt the suggestion ofthe gentleman frsm Ken.
lucky, and modify his resolution accordingly.
lie confessed thar the object he had in view, in
Offering this resolution, was 10 provide for admit
ting the ladies to the privileged seats of the Hall
We have had of late, said Mr.. L. great many
snur faces; il we could introduce some more
pleasing ones. | think we should pass our time
here much more agreeablv. Gentlemen have
for some time past. grown rather cross towards
each othcr-would no, the presence of the ladies'
tend to soften our mutual feelings ttlel Sir,
like to louk upon pleasant face; but horn.
bly, hate to see u sour or grabbed one
am for giving the ladies' the pleasure Of Civ
ing pleasure to others; let them sit here at their
ease. and enjoy the debates of this Hall. II any
gentlemen happen to have grabbed wives, | dare
say they will be against having them admitted
here. All the old bachelors, too, who are all ha
ters of matrimony and of the fairer part of our
race, they too, no doubt, may dislike to see
them here. lexpect all such to vote against
them; but am we'll persuaded that all the rest
Of the House will b. with me.
Mr.. r. Everett here suggested a farther modI-
fcation Of the resolution, by substituting tor the
word ''Lades," the words g other persons intro
duced by the Speaker, or by member of the
House"
Mr.. Thomas accepted this modification; and
the question being on the adoption Of the resoIu-
ton in this f"rm-
Mr.. Polk demanded the yeas and NAYS They
were taken. and resulted as folows-Yeas 70,
Nays so. So the rule was adopted.
