THE CLOSING SCENE.

Congress adjourned about o'clock on the
morning Of the 81 Inst, its session having been
nndis'nsuished by the passage OF single N
orally beneficial law. The most complimentary
remark which can be bestowed uron their Iabor>,
Is that they deserve far more credit for the things
that they have left unLonc than for those which
they have done
The Land Bill known as Walkers BILL which
passed the Senate, ant which should have been
entitled a bill TO enrich spectators, to ira Amel
homes, dealer, and TO dcfraud the treasury. j..
We rejoice to say, lost by the failure Of the H.
OF Representatives to act upon it.
The bill 10 reduce the duties on certain articles
oil import, which also passed the Senate, is en-
oraced in the same category and indeed, we
have never doubted, that it was intended so to
be by those who pressed its passage with the
greatest (aflected) zeal The movement on this
question Is part of that machinery OF deception
which unPrincipled politicians are playing of
upon the hopes and fears of the people.
The Fertilization Bill is likewise lost, by the
continued disagreement of the two Houses. up
10 the moment adjournment, in relation to the
distribution clause, inserted by the House Of Rep
fesentatives and stricken out by the Senate. We
are glad OF 1t. 1t not only prevents large expen-
u''ure but postpones and perhaps eventually de
'ea's policy useless if not dangerous in its ten
dency.
The Treasury Circular Bill, (rcpcaling the
'easury Order, and forbidding hereafter like
usarpaton of power by the Executive,) with
"lch Ii will be recollccted, Mr.. Rives had iden-
t'hed aimself, and whchwas vehemcntly opposed
