House of Representatiyes-Fe Feb. 24th Mir. CROCKETT, rose and said Sir, as I am the only person from Tennessee in this House who am opposed to the Administra- ton, hope l may get few words in that may say what are my own notions on these matters. Sir, think the member from N. York Mr. Turrill who has just spoke, has been little testy in his objection; he talks as much about this, as If it was a great mat ter. Sir, are we to stick at such triGes as few dollars Tn the printing a matter so inl- portant. 1t seems, sir, to me to be some tlng like loading twcnty-four pounder to shoot flea. Sir, Is it not so? We are spending or AGO dollars in discussing the printing oi matter that perhaps after all will not be S20 cost. But, sir, this is retrench- ment; but It IS the cid rule for retrenchine. love, SIT, 10 see the petitioners come here. and my life on t, sir, they will come; aye, and from Indiana, for all that we hear to the contrary and yet from my own State. every day my letters tell me they wish this question settled.
 They know very well in my district the character of the man, who, when he takes any thing into his head, will carry it into eff. feet. They know how should act in this Bank business, for told them, before was elected, how 1 should vote-that I would re-charter the Bank and restore the depo- sites. Sir, get letters every day from all parts which tell me these acts are disappro- bated. The question is now whether we shal be under the old and happy state of shmgs' or have despot. Sir, the people have right to tell their grievances, and, sir, | tell you they must not be refused-I can't stand 1t longer-I won't.

STATE SUPERINTENDENT census of the Territory has been received by our Del egate at the latest dates, and of course no definite action has been had on this subject. We still hold to our opinion, that the Com mittee to which the matter vas referred, will report in favor of both Arkansas and Michigan. There can certainly be no rea- son for deferring the claim of the latter, be- cause she has every thing required by the Constitution, and has rsght to be admit ssss- sxr -~., 600 raa raason. therefore, why they should not report in fave. Of Michigan, andwe are confident that if they do so, Arkansas will be included. Timo will show, and whenever the Deposite question is settled, there will be room for other busi- ness.

They seem to be clearly of opinion, that t shall not go or. The following remarks are from the Daily Evening Transcript.
 Com. Eliiot and the Figure Head.-A iong letter ffotn Com. Elliot to the Hon. Secretary of the Navy, appears III the Post of this morning, which is intended as an explanatory address te tie tie public, on the course pursued By Com. Elliot in ordering a statue of President Jackson to be placed on the cutwater of the Frigate Constltu- ton. He says that the subject has been handled ssin many different ways by censo- rious parlizans fer political purposes, whilst politics had no influence in the directions which he gave to the carver--nor are they suffered to have any influence in the Navy Yard. ''
 We shall not dispute the assertion. But VIC beg the gallant Commodore to reflect, that majority of the people of Massaehu- sets, ii not of the whole country, are of opinion , that the ularious reputation of Gid ironsides cannot be enhanced by any ex- traneous appendage, and that there are ve- Try many New Englanders-too many to render such an act popular-decidedly op- posed to the placing the statue or bust of ony person, living or dead, however much he may have contributed to his country's glory, on the prov or stern of the frigate Constitution, or any other national vessel, and that their wishes ought to be consulted and respected.

The Cholera is again commencing its ra- wages on the Mississippi and it's tributaries. Ithas not yet appeared, we believe, on this river, although we have heard reports to the contrary. It is very probable that this scearge of the earth may yet finger in this country for some years to come. It is nou known that it existed in Hindustan more than forty years ago. It is certain that a disease which has travelled as far as this has, and with progress so distinctly mark cd, cannot arise from local causes, but must proceed from some foreign substance difiased through the air. If so, it will prob ably disappear after time, and the Cholera will become matter of history.

 The following IS an extract of letter from Washington city to the Editor of the New York Evening Star, dated-F Februa- Try 2s, 1881.
 "io day being private business day, noth- ing of public importance transpired in the House. Perhaps should except one cu- rious incident ill the carly part of the morn- ing. Mir. Hall, of North Carolina, ob- tained the unanimous consent of the House to offer resolution. It was merely, he said, one of inquiry. On reading, it turned cut to be resolution of no trifling eharae- ter. It was a resolution to instruct the Committee Of Ways and Means to inquire into the expediency of devising plan and reporting bill to regulate the revenue by the wants of the government. It would have produced a tremendous fariG debate, but this was prevented by MT. Stewart, of Pa. who moved the question of considera- tion. motion which, like the previous question, has the effect of precluding de- bate. On this motion, Mir. Connor, of N. c. called for the ayes and noes. The re- suit was, ayes 70-nees Ills. So the House refused 10 consider the resolution. which of consequence feii to tine ground. v There are various opinions about this reso- lution. Some are of opinion that it was a mere YqIse 10 get what might appear to be an administration majority, for those maio- rites arc beginning 10 get not only scant but scarce.

The Editor of the Pawtucket Chronicle

The Editor of the Pawtucket Chronicle issues ten commandments, calculated for the meridian of Yankee land. He has our thanks for the hint, and as they are also adapted to the meridian of Arkansas, we copy them, and setting our hand to them, having made one alteration, we hereby or der them to be observed through all our domain.
 THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.
 |. Thou shalt subscribe for tic paper printed in thine own Territory.
 ?. Thou shalt not take newspaper with out paying the subscription money punetu- ally: for printers are a race of men, deser- vine to be fed with the fat of the land, and 10 have their purses filled with the riches of. the eafih--T Though they seldom get either.
 8. 4Hoa shah not steal oiotlte1's articles end publish tbem as ttime olcn.
 1. Thou shalt not write maniac prose or insane rhyme and expect thy vile etlusions to be published as the outpounngs of youth ful genius.
 ,. Remember the adverfisements, and < tho printer blessed with the fitness thereof.
 6. Thou shalt not borrow thy neighbours newspaper nor any thing else that is his, but go to him that hath to sell, and buy for thy- sele
 '. Thou shalt not fly into passion when thy mlk-and-water communications, and thy compilation of stolen thoughts are re- jected by the editor.
 8. Honor thy contemporaries of the type and quill, and set always a good example before thy brothers eyes. 9. Remember the iadies-and beware. For if thou presumptuously prevail on them to marry, the Clerk of the court shall issue licence, and thou shalt be brought unto the altar; and there be made to exchange thy state of single blessedness, for one of doub- le dolefulness; and thenceiorth have no more peace.
 10. Beware of meddlers and double-faced politicians, of sea serpents and common scoIds. "Eyil communications corrupt good manners"
