This morning in the Senate, the Hon. Hugh l..
White read letter he had addressed to the Legisa
ture of the State of Tennessee, resignng his seat
as a Senator. The letter is very elaborate and

Quired by the Legislature of Tennessee to vote for
the sab treasury bill but he is not inclined to do

After the letter had been read, Mr.. Grundy of
Tennes see, rose and said few words. He voted
against the sub treasury bill last year, because the

| then called up. Mr.. Benton of Mo. rose and went
into argument in favor Of the passage OF the BILL He
was left speaking.
| In the House, Mr. Pickens of South Carolina, by
unanimous consent flew into terrible passion, and
replied to an attack made in the MadisOnian pa
per- on the ''Caihouu Nulihers, charging them with
having been engaged in collision wi the Globe, to
elect Blair Rives, Printers Of the House of Repre-
sen,atiyes, through bargain with Gen. Duff Green.
He pronounced the whole charge tissue OF vile and
base falsehOOds.
