which were laid over for the extra sen.
ate. Among these nominations also, are
those Of the charge to Texas, and the
judges for the two new circuits in the
west, which have been created by the
present congress. The senate will pro-
baby adjourn to-day or tomorrow.
The friends of the administration have
been baffled in their attempts to reduce
the tariff and the revenue-but they will
not relax in their efforts. 1t is one of
those great principles which constitutes
an article in their political creed. IT
forms broad line of distinction between
them and their opponents. Some now
insist, that fewer public lands should be
thrown into market--and that this con-
stitutes the best remedy for the omissions
of the last congress--that this course,
too, will enable the president to modify
or rescind altogether the treasury circu-
lar-that it will circumscribe the rage
for speculation, the over issues of the
state banks, and the accumulation of a
large surplus. The idea is certainly en-
titled to serious consideration.
The administration has to do its duty
and its friends keep united-and all
will be well.
The wings hatter themselves, that we
are divided by struggle between Mess.
Benton and Rives. We have looked in
to this thing, and if we are not grossly
mistaken, the wings will find themselves
egregiously y disappointed. They also
hatter the nselves with the idle report,
that the Globe is 10 be superseded as the
official paper, and that Mr.. Alexander
Everett, "a gentleman of fine talents is
either to be placed at the head of the
Globe, or Of another official paper, which
is to take the place of the Globe. We
can assured them, that in this hope they
will be disappointed--that Mr.. Blair re-
mains at the head of the GIobe--the
Globe continues as the official paper
and that the spirit and talent, with which
it will be conducted, will deserve the
support of the friends of the administra-
ton. The wings are again counting
without their host.

LAST NIGHT OF THE SESSION.

The following is, we believe, from what we
heard of it, pretty fair description of the
state and condition of the House of Represen-
tatives on the last night of the late session of
Congress.-[National lntell.]
Correspondence ofMe Boston Advocute.
WASHINGTON, March A.
There was a mob in the house of repre-
sentatives last evening, as direct mob as
was ever got up, and more than two thirds of
the members of congress were literally driven
out of their seats. Had they been pressed
ever so hard by the rioters, they would not
have offered the least resistance and when
the officers of the house attempted to expel the
mob, the members not only withheld theiriaid
from them, but actually refused to suffer the
rioters to be driven from the seats they had
usurped. 1t was the most lovely mob that
fancy could sketch, or art and taste adorn--a
mob of brilliant, beautiful ladies'. Disregard
ing all the rules of the house, and not few of
the rules of propriety, some two hundred la
dies, comprising the beauty and fashion that is
centred here from all parts of the Union, rush
ed into the hall, and pressed into the aisles
and the very seats of the members, until, in
stead of representatives, there were ladies' oc-
cupying half the seats, and the members stand
ing in the passage ways and outside the bar.
This, of course, put an end to all business; and
was quite as bad in effect upon the public in
terest, as the raving speeches OF Payton and
Wise, which had consumed the night before.
1t was a gross impropriety, and should be pre-
vented recurring by some decisive measures.
The business of the nation is sometimes para
mount even to polteness to the ladies. But
who could turn out the fair intruders The
house was in committee of the whole, Mr..
Smith, of Maine, in the chair. At every at
tempt of the clerk to read bill, some of the
members would exclaim that they could hear
nothing, there was so much confusion. The
ladies were buzzng with mods and wreathed
smiles, as the, hall had been converted into a
drawing room; and they were evidently elec-
tioneering at great rate with every member
who had the felicity to sun himself in their
smiles. In vain the chairman called upon
members to resume their seats, and attend to
business The ladies only looked delightfully."-
with all their might, and kept their seats un-
molested. Well-bred impudence is the most
imperturable thing on earth, and what did the
members care for the Choctaw bill, when
lovely woman was much more agreeable sub
iect of discussion! Nothing could be done.
The speaker resumed his chair, and tried his
authority. The rules of the house, he said,
must be enforced !; the hall must be cleared,
and the members must resume their seats.
This rebuke prevailed on about half the beau
tiful intruders to leave the desks, and 60 in
side the bar, but enough remained to throw all
business into confusion. They sat it out,
most them, till near midnight. The confu-
sion was like that of town meeting, and the
Isonnd Of voices like that of many waters,
drowning even the powerful voice and distinc
enunciations Of the clerk

The LEGISLATURE OF OHIo.-This honor
able body has undoubtedly adjourned, and its
members are returning home to their constit-
uents, to render their account ofther proceed
ings at the seat of government. We have
observed during a residence of severa! years
in Ohio, that our legislative bodies have re-
markable facility, in following the examples of
those whom they consider their betters, and
we have also observed that in the present in
stance they have been equally docile as before.
Congress having effected nothing, it would
have been breach of good manners indeed
in thetLegislature of the obscure State of
Ohio, I'd have been so industrious as to put
that aug gust body to the blush. The wishes,
the wants, nay, the most urgent necessities of
large bodies of our fellow citizens, have been
treated with the most gentlenanly indffer-
ence. The most urgent claims of justice, and
the most clamorous petitions Of absolute suf-
fering have been disregardcd by the phlo-
sophie servants Of the people. The CONNER
rests of the State have been forgotten-they
have not been represented--they have not
been the subjects of labor and delberation.
What then has been done! Why. there has
been little electioneering andpolitical man
agement, little dissipation,Ia "a little speechi-
flying, and good deal of preparation on the
part of the members, to occupy the same, or
more honorable or profitable seats next year.
The political matters have been attended to
and the usual result has been produced.
In relation to our own members, we have
not much to say. 1t is true that there has
been no legislative action upon several of the
many things which ought to have demanded
their attention. What has become of the
bridge! Have private dissensions, or feelings
of personal pecuniary interest tended to de-
feat thehonest action of either, upon that most
important subject! The two towns of Maui
NEE and Perrysburg may be rivals, but their
citizens, members of coordinate branches OF
the same Legislative body, have no business to
be rivals; and where measures, obviously just,
are proposed for the benefit of either place, it
is the duty of the member from the other to
lend his aid most heartily in furthering the
cause. We do not know what course either
member has taken, but this we know-that
we have no bridge charter, and if blame on
that account belongs to either of the represen-
tatives from this district, we for one care not
how heavy may be its fall, or how injurious
may be its consequences.

0NN-It is stated py the Washington letter
writer's, that Mr.. Forsyth, Secretary of State,
having been offered mission to Austria, by
the president, who wished to advance Mr..
Rives to his place, became offended, and ten
dered his resignation of his secretaryship,
sending at the same time to the Globe for pub
lication, an appeal to the citizens of Georgia.
sThis having taken air, and come to the ears
of the President, an interview was had be-
tween Mr.. Forsyth and himself, in which the
latter was persuaded to withdraw his resig
nation, and to suppress his appeal There
can be no doubt but change for the better
would be effected by the substitution of Mr..
Rives in the place of Mr.. Forsyth, the former
being gentleman of strict business habits
and of mild and agreeable manners, while the
latter is said to be ihdolent in his habits and
overbearing and supercous in his carriage.

UsURY.--The whole country is eaten up
with usury. 1t is not alone the merchant of
New York, who is obliged to shin it in Wall
street, and to pay ten per cent. a month to
raise money to pay bank note, before the
hour atwhich the bank closes, but it is every
man, however low and obscure may be his sit
uation, and however far he may reside from
the commercial metropolis. The importer,
who pays an usurious rate of interest, cannot
sustain himself without augmented profits.
The jobber, who purchases of the importer, if
he is obliged to pay six or ten per cent. per
month for money, or fail, must calculate this
interest, which is thus eating out the life Of
his business, as part of the cost of those
commodities in which he deals, and must sell
,at a corresponding profit. The retailer is
placed 10 exactly the same, or rather perhaps
in worse situation, for he is obliged to pur-
chase his supplies, with this accumulated
weight fusury upon them, and to retail them
to his customers, who are in fact the payers
Of the whole immense amount, which is daily

An extraordinary affair took place short
time since in New York, which savors little
of the romantic A beautiful young lady,
genteelly dressed, entered dry goods store
in Broadway, and after the mannerof women,
proceeded to examine the merchants silks,
satins, laces, &C., to the no small annoyance
of the clerks, which, as is usual in such cases,
only resulted in the sale ola 'stick Of tape
to the fair heroine. Monsieur Twist, how
ever, watched her motions, and upon her leav-
ing the store, followed her till they arrived at
one ofthe quiet streets leading off Broadway,
when he tapped her lightly on the shoulder,
and requested few moments private conver-
sation. AT first she gave her beautiful lip a
naughty curl, but a single word on the point
at issue caused it to trembe. Madam, you
have robbed me, said the man of millinet and
buckram--s. you have stolen my goods, and
you must either 60 to priest (not Roman
Catholic,) or a magistrate forthwith ? She
hestated-disgrace and exposure threatened
her on one hand, and the wedding ring on the
other. What could she do? That is not the,
question what did she do! Why, she mere
ly did, what any other female would have done,
placed in similar circumstances she took hold
of his arm and followed him to the altar, and
pledged herself to take him for better or for
worse : and at the same time added to his for
tune the very handsome sum f60 900 dollars
The lady is said to be the daughter Of one Of
the most wealthy and respectable citizens in
the city.
