Mr.. PHELPs.-A correspondent of the New
York Express asserted, that Mr.. Phelps stated,
in tie progress of the debate on the Bank bill
that he doubted the power of Congress to es-
tablish branches. Mr.. Phelps, in a letter to the
Editors, Indignantly denies this in toto. Il
will be seen by the report ofhis remarks upon
that occasion in this paper, that Mr.. Phelps
must be correct. The Express apologies for
placing the honorable senator in a wrong po-
siiton. The correspondence will appear in
our next.

ANOTHER W1ypFALL. Within the week
past. another extremely poor man, resident
in this city for many years, has received in.
telligence ofa fortune left him in England
The property left TO him is vested in sever
al valuable farms, worth large sum Of
money reaching it is said the very respect
able sum of 100000 or Whereabouts. At
any rate it is a valuable property. This In
herilance falls 10 him on the death of a sis.
ter or sisters. who for many years were un.
successful in their eff,rts to obtain any in
formation of the brother. Intelligence of
his whereabouts was finally communicated
10 his relatives through the instrumenaliiy
ofC. Lenox Remond, formerly known in
this city as an elegant young gentleman Of
color in the oyster business, now an assocl
ate of the lords and ladies of England. and
a distinguished advocate of the abolition
cause. a nephew of the devisee, in con-
sequence of the information thus obtained,
came over to this country and arrived in
This city last week TO inform his relatives of
the tidings of his fortune. Charles Lenox
certainly deserves handsome and sub.
santial acknowledgement frsm the heir for
bis agency in this business.
The case we mentioned short time ago
was not stated accurately. The sum left
in that instance was $500 sterling, and the
accumulated interest of thirty'elght years,
SiO0 sterling without interest and one I'M
divided fourth part of valuable farm.

PASSAGE OF THE BANK BILL.-Our papers
ofyesterday express the greatest fears for the
fate of Mr.. Clay's bill. Speculation is on tip
toe. Should it be defeated in consequence of
the rejection of Mr.. Rives's amendment, a
storm of public indignation will burst upon
those whose tenacity will occasion its failure.
Many fear, should it finally pass both houses
the President will place his veto upon it. 1t is
supposed, if it passes at all, it will be by only
one majority. The least wavering or accident
will consequently defeat it. Let wings see
to it that the dexterity of their opponents does
not battle them.

From the New York Times.
LET us REASON TOGETHER.

"How stands the account betwixt Con-
.gress and the people! Congress has passed
the Bankrupt Bill, great measure Of relief
to millions; it has been approved by the Pres.
ident. 1t will relieve the unfortunately
infuse new energies throughout the land, it
will strike off the chains of the enslaved and
oppressed. Is that nothing? Congress has
passed the Distribution Bill, and it will be
signed by the President. That bill secures
to the States their portions of the Public
Lands, and enables every State to pay off
its debt and carry out its projects of inter-
nal improvement. Is that nothing? The
Loan Bill has passed-by which all the cred
itors of Government, left in hopeless des-
pondency by the last administration, will re-
ceive their honest dues. Is that nothing?--
The Sub Treasury has been repealed, the
union of the purse and sword has been bro
ken down. Is h0t nothing?
"The Revenue Bill has passed, or will be
passed: in short, every Wing measure has
been passed at this extra session, excep,
such Bank Bill as the President could sane
ton. Shall we, on that account, charge the
President with apostacy--Shall we break
up and disband the Wing party on that &C.
count! Shall we charge the President with
basely and treacherously going over to his
enemies! Certainly not. We wished and
desired that he should sign the bill; but the
right to veto is conferred by our Constitu.
ton, and he has exercised a prerogative
specially confded to him. We may regret
it; but it affords no apology for all this
warmth. this violence, this attack on the
President, he has signed the repeal of the
Sub Treasury, and will, as matter of ne,
cessity, propose substitute at the next ses.
sion. Let US keep cool; all is not lost that
is in danger. Who ever heard of conquer.
ing army in the heat of conflict going over
to the enemy! Who ever heard of nation
giving up in dispair, because single battle
had been lost. Suppose the Cabinet should
throw up their commissions, we should be
sorry for it; but other men are to be found
capable of filling their places. Shall the
Wings of nineteen States, give up in dspair
because the President peases to veto Bank
Bill All this temper and anger is ill-timed
and uncalled for. AS to President Tyler
joining the Loco Focos, it is sheer nonsense
he desires no union with them, and he is not
the man for their purposes. Again we say
keep cool; avoid violence, keep united, and
all, we are confident, will yet be well.

THREE ABsTRACTIoNs.-A member of
Congress in the debate relative to the posi-
ton to be occupied by the statue of Wash
ington in the?caPitol, having suggested that
it be placed in the CORNER of the rotunda,
Mr.. Stanley of North Carolina, moved that
a committee, consisting of three abStroction-
ists, be appointed to find out where the cor
ner of rotuhda can be found. The idea is
an excellent one and suggests very fitting
occupation. An 0bStractieniSt could not
possibly be better employed than in looking
for the corner of circle. We should think
he would find himself as much in his ee-
ment, as a trout in a shallow stream, or fat

PRESIDENT TYLER AND APPOINT.
MENTS.

In some quarters President TxLER is CEN
sured for his hardness in making removals.
We are satisfied that more is laid to the
door of the President than Justice will war;
rant. The fault is with the Senate. We
were few days since assured by the very
best authority, that there are now more than
one hundred nominations before the Senate
ENACTED upon. Under these circumstances
what is the duty of the President! To go
on making nominations to sleep on the table
of the Senate? We think not. He does
better to stand on his dignity. The Senate
is the body now in error. 1t pays no re-
gard to the President. If the President
should pay no regard to the Senate, he too
would be in the wrong; and two wrongs
never make right. The President is now
right, and the Senate wrong-let the Sen
ate, not the President, be censured.-Penn-
