or The Public Lands.-Our "Svnop-
sis of Congressional Proceedings" given to-day,
VIII be found to include Mr., CLAWS remarks upon
presenting the "Bill for the Distribution of the
Proceeds of the Sales of the Public Lands among
the States for a limited time" which was retained
by the President at the last session of Congress,
and thus prevented from becoming law. These
remarks of Mr., Clay give a complete exposition
of the objects of the Bill and we refer the rca.
der TO them for information on the interesting sub.
ject. The share of North Carolina, according to
his estimate of the amount of revenue accruing
from the Public Land Sales for 1S33.3t35-and
which his Bill contcmplates distributing among
Che States on the first of May next-amounts to
the handsome sum of ss9SS. G32-tAimost a
million . We think the passage of this Bill un.
certain, ,owevor, especially since Mr. Benton has
introduced into the Senate a proposition to devote
the whole surplus revenue to the purposes of iort
ication and defence

Mediation OF England.

From the Giebe Of FEB. /.
The Mediation.-We understand that
the British sloop of war Pantaloon, brought
dispatches 10 MIR. Bankhead, authorizing
hun to tender the good offices of the British
Government as mediator in adjusting the
difficulties now existing between the United
States and France. Whether any decision
has been made upon this offer, or if so, what
1t IS, we have not been advised; bu: we can.
not but hope, that the good offices of Great
Britain, in the character of a mediator,
equally friendly TO both the parties, may be
so employed as to restore that amicabIe in.
tercouIse which has so long existed between
the people and the Governments Of the two
countries, without any abandonment or pre-.
IJudlce to the principle on which our Gov.
eminent has taken lis stand, and in nan.

O'T Relations uith France.-No doubt
now exists that Mediation has been offered
between the United States and France bv
The Government of Great Britain. We
have reason to believe that the Executive Of
the United States, without consulting the
Senate-we do not know that il was neces.
saTy that it should do so-has acted ON This
proposition, and that dispatches announcing
It's determination are already on the way 10
the seaboard.
We do not know any thing of the partic.
uars OF either The proposition or the reply.
Perhaps the Official journal may furnish
some information respecting both. Mean.
while, lest, for diplomatic reasons. a studl.
Gus silence should be observed in that quar-.
ter, we think it proper, for the information
OF our readers, TO state our impression that
the profered Mediation by Great Britain,
as common friend, has been accepted bv
the Executive of the United States. Such
an offer could not indeed well be declined by
any Nation not disposed to place itself cut
OF the pale of the Law of Nations.
The reader must, however, bear in mind
that, between Nations, Mediation and Arb.
traton are not the same thing. Arbitra-
taon, accepted by both parties, would to
certain extent, be obligatory on both, The
acceptance of Mcdio9or concludes nothing
between the parties; but only leaves the
door open for Cancellation and adjustment.

TITS much, however, that intercourse be.

that is not respectful and conciiatorv will

greatest satisfaction, that all apprehensions
are dlssipated of precipitated quarrel be-
