WASHINGTON, August, 0l
 Propositions for fixing day of adjournment were brought forward yesterday Tn both Houses, but not from the whg side. There is, however, much anxi- ety all sides to close this protracted session. In the Senate, Mir. Tappan moved to take up his reso- iuion for adjournment, and proposed for the majori ty to fix the day. The motion was lost by maor- tyf one But whglsenator voted for it except Mir. Barrow. Subsequently, after the revenue bill had been taken up, and debate continued for three hours amendment offered by Mir. Buchanan, Mir. Clay said if gentlemen anxious to adjourn, they must act on this bii No adjournment could take place until this bill and the bank bill were dispos d of Mir. Calhoun said, in reply, that he should of fer amendments to both these bills, and should dis them. If gentlemen the other side wished to close the session, let him give up this hill. Let them give up the bank. "Neyer," "never," :" reioined Mir. Clay "We will stay here till Christmas first" Mir. Walker remarked that it was surprising the Se- nator from Kentucky, should be so tenacious of bank bull that bad that he would not vote for il himself. Mir. Clay replied that he had not said he would not vote for it. At the same time he might have made mp his mind upon it.
 In the House, motion snspend the rules to offer resolution for adjournment the 18th proxmo, was lost-yeas 97, nays 98. Mir. Everett gave mo- tce that when the resolution was taken up he should io substitute for declaration that "Congress ought adjourn until the colectlon safe keep ing and disbursement of the revenue be provided for by law" HiRts have been thrown out that, should the bank bill fail under the veto, third measure may be tried.
 Mir. Berriea, from the Select Committee on the currency, reported the Fiscal Corporation bill with ont amendment, and gave notice that be would ask the Senator to take it up on Wednesday,. presume that the bill will then be laid aside until the bank bill is passed. 'r-
 Mir. Buchanan moved to amend the revenue bill so to impose duty of twenty per cent on rail road iron. and this was debated the whole day without be- ing disposed of. Some of the Southern States, Geor- gia Alabama, &c., have extensive rail road enterpri. to complete. and opposed to the duty on rail road iron at thus time, unjust to them. But it is contended that rich corporations and States ought pay duties iron when the poor are taxed for sugar and salt; that the Treasury needs the money and ilai the home manufacture can supply the iron cheap it be imported, and of better quality if the home market be secured for it. The duty wosld yield half million year.
 The House co leurred ill the Senate amendments fo the land bill, suspeudng the operation of the when duties are increased twenty per cent, and the bill is now finally passed, and awaits the Presidents approval.

U. s. Bank Notes.-ILe public perhaps are not generally aware of the nature of tho security given for the redemption of the notes of the Bank of the U States, of the prospect as to the probable time of their payment,
 We believe that securities to the amount of twelve trustees to secure the redemption of three millions of dollars in notes. The trustees are said to be of opi- nion that enough wll be realized from these securi ties to pay all the otes, but how sasn this will be done cannot be yet ascertained. It may be some years.
 The securities are said to be "of very delicate kind, such as "require nursing" This is the state ment of the Inquirer.
 These ''decate securities" presumable, are the political loans to members of congress and of the State Legislature, and the the editors and managing politicians. ylvanian.

BASKRUPr LAw.-The object of deferring the time when this bill goes into operation it is stated, ~as to give Congress an opportunity to alter and amend it ai the regular session. As it now stands, ,, said Mr. Fillmore, in recent speech. sit is in some respects contradictory, and think it will be very difficult carry into effect. Nevertheless, as ii is now conceded all hands that is late to att tempt to perfect this great measure at this session, ahe question presents itself whether will take the bill it is, postponng its operation long enough af- aer the commencement of the next session to enable to correct any defects at that time, or adjourn without any legislation upon the subject. cannot hesitate. am for the bill tt is rather than nott- jag. take it with all its mperfections on its head, rather than to have legislation on the subject One great point is gained the friends of the measure by the passage of this b it at least compels Legislation pn this subject al the next session.''

MINISTER TO EN6LAND.-The Boston Courier and other northern papers are very-yery lndIg nant at the rejection of Mr. Everett as Minister 10 England-they say he rejected on the ground of being an abolitionis and that if disqualification for office follows oppos ton slavery g tbe abstract it is time for northern states to follow southern exam pie, and calculate the value of the union Well, it would not be the first time they have calculated it., ay, and presented most extraordinary bill as their share, too They have generally to the conclu- sion that it was better to stay.
 But while objection has been made to Mir. Everett in connection with abolition, il has been made far as we have seen, fairly, He is simply accused of having descended from the position he had before maintained towards the south for the sake of gaining the abolition vote for Governor of Massachusetts, He succumbed to the abotionsts for the sake of of
 ce and we hold that to be very grave objection to his representing this country abroad. We do not believe him to be abolitionst-he is too sleek and dapper for fanatic of any But that is far from proving that he ought to be Minister to England.
 Mr. Everett is nice man, of scholarly tastes, mel ihuous speech and that harmony of ideas which de- pends on the aborIous p0lsh and premeditated con- eruty of well assorted negatives. But for of eager sight, of unyelding will and thorough business powers we are not to look to ile quondam Professor of Cambridge. And such a man we want noY to represent us in England. He ought also to be free from all suspicion of dabbling in aboltionism, for some of the worst questions we have to settle with that nation, touch the question of slavery. If Mir. Everett must have a mission, send him somewhere else-send him any whsre but to England.
 But really after the proofs Mir. Cay's man Charles in the House has given, it is all nonsense to talk of he Clay fartion rejecting any body for abolition. The democratic Senators may well have voted against gMr. Everett that ground, but f he had heen an Adams abolitionist, instead of Webster aRotion- jst, the Clay folks would not have quarelled wtb him. .v- CbariesteR Mercury.

 If Mr. Everett were in truth an aholtionist, the question would then cone dp whether he ought tor that reason 10 be rejected. We should say al once that for many offices his abstract opinions npalf that point shonld uol disqualiiy him, ol any other mani hut as minister to England, the case presents a different aspect. That is lhe- government where schemrs.are constantly to nterfere mitif our regulations in reference to the slaves at the south Every is there resorted to for the purpose oi giving Us trouble upon this very subject Whenever a war is talked of, nsnrrection and murder m the slave states are threatened as the principal annoy ances which they will make suffer. Ought we, then, send an abolition fanatic minister to such Kingdom and such c0url No, never. We have said that we de not believe Mr. Everett to he such an abotonist but if he is, the Senate ought to re- jecthim. England is the last place on the face ol Gods earth where America should he represented by apabotionst.
