GEN. HARRISON

The prospects of Gen. Harrison. as n
candidate for the office Of President.
are evidently Frightening and strength
ening every day. We make no pre-
dictlons as to the final result but ii Is
fact that Gen. Harrison is the most
formidable competitor in the contest
with Mr.. Van Buren,. Mr.. Webster
Is, IN effect, withdrawn, and Judge
White does not obtain an extended
support north or west of the Potomac.
la this state of the case the opposition
to the appointed succession seems
rapidly concentrating on Gen. Harrison.
In Virginia, - Is thought the Siaunton
Convention (lldrrison) will adopt the
I White electoral ticket. and thus "dou-
bic Shotted do all the execution pos
sIble. South Carolina, it Is thought.
will vote for Harrison. In Pennsylva-
MIA and New York the contest between
Mr.. Van Buren, and Gen. Harrison will
be most animated, and neither Of these
States, can be- put down n cerfps8. -
Mr.. Van Burcn's strong hold will be-
IN New England. where he will get all
the votes except those of Massachusetts
and Vermont. After be comes out of
New Jersey. however, he will have 10
90 under vi hip and spur over the poliii-
cal course. Harrison will, itiscyidcnt
run him hard IN some states which have
heretofore been yielded &, him without
dispute. We repeat that we make no
predictions as g. the result. We can
only say that II Mr. Van Buren, T.,
beaten, It can only be by pursuing the
earnest spirited policy adopted by Har-
uson' IS friend. IN some part Of Pcnnsyl.

j aThe Anti.Administration party in the
Senate, to-day, we're thrown into great con-
sternation by the news, that if the Legisla.
.ture Of Virginia should pass their-resolu.
,tions of instruction, Mr.. Leigh and Mr.. Ty.
.ler have made up their minds to relinquish
their Seats ia the Senate. Mr.. Tyler has
been absent, in Virginia, for some days. It
IS said that his visit to the Old Dominion
Was made for the, purpose Of collecting the
sentiments Of his friends, and the determi.
nation which Ihay J. ;ust given, is supposed
to be- the result Of this consultation. What
a prodigious effect would be produced on
the Senate, should this be the course chalked
out by the Virginia Senators, and should the
anticipated instructions come from the Le-.
sislature Of Virginia. The whole Senate
would be reyolutionized. The expunging
resolutions would be passed, and, the majo-
rity being reversed, the Administration
would be enabled to carry all its measures.
There has been no circumstance since the
commencement Of the session, which has
produced such buz, and so much agita:
ton here.

on which his colleague had touched and con.
clusively shown that the proviso which it
contained also opposed impassable barriers
to emancipation ny Congress in,this District.
He {said Mr. c.. fel. the profoundest
gratitude and respect to those wetchful and
jealous patriots, who, at the time Of the adop.
ton of the Constitution, would not agree to
its ratification without proposing these
amended articles which were subsequently
agreed to, and which contain those great
limitations on power, of the Importance Of
which he daily became more sensible. But
It is said that Congress has, by the Constitu.
ton, the exclusNe.right Of Legislation. in this
District. Grant il and what then? Does
the Constitution mean that il has absolute
power of legislation here2 Certainly not.
There are many and important limitations
on its powers in the District as well as in
the States. Congress cannot in the District
abridge the liberty of the press; it cannot
establish religion by law; it cannot abolish
jury trial. In granting the exclusive right
ofiegislation, the Constitution only intended
to exclude all other legislative authority
within the District and not to create an ab-
solute and despodc power in Congress over
the lives and property Of its citizens. Nor
isHhe opinion less erroneous, tha. Congress
has the same unlimited power here that the
States had within their respective limits.
The two powers were wholly different. The
latter was original, inherent and sovereign; |;
while the former was derivatiye and dele.
gated trust:power, given by the States for
special purposes, and subject to be altered
and rescinded at their pleasure.
But it Is said that It would be a violation
Of the Constitution not to receive these peti.
tons. He denied that there was any power
10 that instrument that made it their duty to
receive them. He had again and again read
the Constitution and could find none such,
