The Wheeling Times expresses it, regret that we
have seen proper to call the attention of the PresI.
dent Of The United States 70 the VIGOROUSLY fragrant
abuses ofhis lime and office Ivy the Postmasier Of Thai
town, in clecIion cering and stump speaking instead of
attending To the duties for not discbarging which he Is
paid out ofthe pockets Of the people. The Times
says that the bringing this conduct more directly TO the
notice at the President is the very way TO secure the
Postmaster what he wants, and that he sends every re-
Duke Of the sort that he receives to the high functiona
res at washington.to be filed as evidences of his title
to a letter Office when the post office at weeclipg be-
comes too hot Tor him" We are by no means sure
that the Times has not. in his case, hit the nail on The

Pnbiic Lands.

4 VtsG L~ot~S.
Mr.. DIXON, of Rhode Island, presented the Res
olutions of the Legislature of Rhode Island. asking
Congress TO d vide the proceeds Arising from the
sales OF The Public Lands among the several States
of the Union. Mr.. d, in presenting these Rcso-
luiions, remarked that they were similar to the Re-
solutions which had been bt fore cflaled, referring
TO that subject. The Public Lands, Ar. D., con-
tended, belonged To the old States, and were their
property in common with the new States.
Alter the resolutions had been l"ad, Mr.. CAL
HoUS remn ked that he did no; believe that the res.
pected State of Rhode Island had ever seen the bill
of his which proposed the cession # the Public
Lands among the several States Of the Union in
which the lands were located. lie believed that,
the State OF Rhode Island had got their Information
from letter writers or newspapers which presented
fiction tor truth. BE that as ii may, the resolutions
said Mr.. Calhoun, do not fairly state The character
Of my bill, which proposes a partial equivalent li
the lands cedFd to the States. My bill also, said
Mr.. Calhoun, is designed 10 diminish patronage,
which gentlemen on the opposite side so much de,
sire.
Mr.. CLAY said that in his humble opinion the
res, Iutions Of Rhode Island pretty nearly, if not al.
together, stated the thtct OF Inc character of the
bill Of Mr.. CalhoUn. The bill proposed To cede oil
the lunds belonging 10 the United States to The
States wherein the lands lie. II was true that one
half tho receipts were to be returned to the Govern.
ment, but ihe States were to he tho collectors OF
thus one halt, aud though they might not like some
Of our collectors, run away with The one hall, Vet 1t
would doubtless be very Inconvenient inr them to
meet the debt required Of them by the Government.
Many excuses would be made, and much lime and
accommodation asked. He doubted even If some
would not ask 70 be relieved from their debts upon
The ground that the land belonged to them, or for
some other reason.
Mr.. CALHOUN said he WIS not to be provoked
into a discussion nj this time. Whom The Commit
tee GA the Public Lands took 40 this question. he
should go into il, and be ready To meet the Senator
fsom Kentucky or any body else. He should show
that his bill was an important measure If public
policy. and that it would not result as that Senator
As for the opinions Of tho Senator
from Kentucky" said Mr.. Calhoun, II have no
confidence in them-none whatever"
NJ. CLAY am equally unwilling to protract

Carolina, that ! heartily reciprocate all that he has
