 a1 By the last mail. We learn that on Friday, by vase of lle 10 ll2. the House decided that the New Jersey whig members should not be admitted to take seats Thus is New.Jersey for the present disfian- chised-the nIEfyins members. who make such m ado about state riehis, and -ndependence. and all that sost of thing, doubtless goaded by Benton & Co into the support oftheir measures. ARenihis decision, debate sprung up whether te rules of sh last House should govern she present, and consinued tll soscioek without being decided. k wss believed that on Saturday the House would become thorough. ly oreanised % that the Message might be expect ed on Monday.

 Animpression seems to prevail among the commu- nifty that MT. Hunter was chosen to Congress by the administration party in opposition to whif candidate, and we were among those who favored this opinion This we believe, however. is not the fact. Though
 the whgs of his district did no. like some If his sub treasury notions, they had confidence in his integrity Land his ability, and accordingly gave him their sup port fos reelection in opposition to Francis w Scot
