State regulating the election Of Uni,cd States Sena
tar. provides Tint each house shall make "A noniu.
atitn In separate meeting, and that they shall then
assemble IN joint meeting aud, il, upon comparing
tho nominations. II appears tina, both houses have
nominated tho same person, lie is declared duly e.
lec,ed. II, on tho contrary, II appears tina, the
Houses have disagreed rs 10 the nominations, the
law requires Them, n, once, 10 proceed to cleo,
Senator in joint meeting. II is, Of course, under
this law within the power OF either branch to defeat
the choice Of Senator by refusing to nomiate. And
this expedient the Van Buren, members of the Sen
ate have had the hardihood To adopt, In thai body.
ON Tuesday, the Senate proceeded 10 tho nomina-
,ion, when the Ia Wings voted Tor Mr. TALL-
MApoE aud the IL Loo Focos. each voted for u dit.
ferent man. Tom, Dick aud Harry, men Of straw,
with the wowed objce, Of preventing majority OF

Mr. TMLMADen was nominated and message sent
to the Senate. informing ,ha, body that tho House
was ready 10 meet and compare tho nomna-
tons, aud the message was contemporary land up
on the table by the Senators who hold thor seats in
open contempt and defiance oil the voice OF th PEG

The voters OF tho State ri the next election will
fully avengc this outrage upon the rights Of the pco-

OBITUARY..

Died, on Sunday morning, The 10th inst, al half
after o'clock, Mas MARTHA w. TnunMAS, wife
of Nathan b. Thurman, Esq. of this place. in The
4OIh year Of her age. Having anticipated her dis
solution for some months,,-suifering under a slow
and consuming disease; and having had the truth
announced to her in all its severity she gave ndi
cation Of being unpreparcd to meet the awful event.
Ia the almost total absence Of pain, she could look,
and did look at the past the present and the )utare-
Calm and tranquil as was her exit her deathless spr
rcjoiced nj The termination Of its earthly probation
She had been exemplary member of the M. f..
Church 25 years. Her faith in Christ was not
merely sentimen,al'sm. but lively and vigorous,
it was also practical in its results. The sting Of
death was entirely cradicated by the overwhelming
power Of divine grace. Although the associations
that cluster around home, husband children &c.
had powerful effect on her cheerful and cquablc
mind. all were subducd with perfect resignation to
the will Of Heaven. A model Of patience, and re-
signation to the will of her Divine Nasier-aii the
associations that cluster around home, husband,
children aud friends, subdued by the over
whelming power Of grace.

II rs not this contracted aspect Of the subject tina,
this measure is most Objectionable. Ii is because il
IS one of Mr.. Ben,ons entering cedges to reduction
under the name Of graduation, upon more extend
ed scale, that it should now be resisted. Apply the
principle of graduation to day. to the more ant lent
ly settled ofihe new States, and fix the minimum at
20 CENTS as the rst STEP and so The second, and
the principle is recognzed-the precedents furnish
ed.-and TO morrow the government will be called
upon to extend the same policy to the whole extent
offs territorial jurisdiction. and the greedy COMO
rants who make the demand will never be satisfied,
until the price Of the entire Public Domain shall be
reduced to so low standard as To be unable TO sup
port the cumbrous and expensive machinery of the
Land Office, which even now eats so largely into its
gross product. Then will come the millennium Of the
