Mr. Rvuun not being in his seat

MIR. WISE replied. in his behalf, that he was
confident no such reference had been meant.
MFR. PEYTON said he had had converse
with Mr.. ByNuM, and understood that nothing
had passed between the gentlemen Wnlch need
ed any public or other explanation.
Mr. BYNuM having, in the meanwhile, entered
the House
MIR DAVIS repeated the inquiry, whether
he had intended the assertion to apply to him
personally, or to the party only to which ne be-
longed?
Mr.. BYNUM replied that he had referred to
the party.
MIR. SELDEN called the attention of Mr.
WISE to an exposition by Mr. WRIT of the mean
ing of the word g happened" in that clause OF
the Constitution which refers to the Presidents
appointing power-suggestlngt that II Wouiu DE
better. in Mr.. W1sE's amendment, to employ the
word arise"
Mr.. WISE replied at large, insisted on the
propriety of retaining the word "happen," and
went into constitutional argument on the Ell
feet of the word on the appointing power.
Mr.. PATTON united heartily IN denying the
mower of the President to re-appoint, IN the re-
cess. an individual who had been nominated
and rejected by the Senate: but could not sup
port the amendment, because it would operate
as no farther restraint upon the Executive than
the Constitution already imposed; and the Pres
dent's Interpretation of one would be the same
as that of the other.
Mr. WISE rejoined, and defendedth amend
ment he had proposed
Mr.. BEARDSLEY derided the idea OF re-
enacting parts of the Constitution in an appro,
priaton bill, and thought better course Would
be TO attach the whole of that instrument to the
end of every law as an additional section.
Mr.. DAVIS again addressed the House IN
support and defence of his amendment and IN
explanation of what he had said when last up.
He replied with some severity to the speech OF
Mr.. BYNUM.
Mr.. BYNUM inquired whether, in the ex-
preston "super-serviceable friend OF Gen. jack
son. !" Mr.. D. had intended any personal alluson
to himself2
Mr.. D. replied, that he had said 'super-ser-
viceable friends.
MIR. FOSTER now suggested, for the adop-
ton of his friend from South Carolina, (Mr.
DAvIs) an amendment going to prohibit the pay
ment of the salary of any Minister so appoint
ed, from out of the Contingent Fund for foreign
! intercourse.
Mr.. DAVIS did not accept it as modifica-
| ton.
! 8 o'clock and that the House had been laborl-
ously occupied for nine hours, while grave con-
/ stitutional questions were still pending, moved
an adjournment.
The motion was promptly negatived, only 4S
rising in the affirmative.
MIR. DAVENPORT, adverting to the noise

Mr.. ADAMS moved TO amend the bill, Gas he
had previously proposef in Committee of the
Whole, by striking out the outfit aud salary OF
la Charge des Affaires to Buenos Ayres
Mr.. & repeated, succintly, the substance OF
the objections he had before urged against this
appropriation, and appealed to the House, if
there was one feeling of national honor in their
hearts, not to provide for sending Minister to
Power, which, according to the statement of
the President himself hadinficted great injury
