10 establish agencies in every Stale Of the
Union against their wishes. This was one
specimen Of strict construction. The Sen.
a,or from Georgia (Mr. Berrien) yesterday
contended thet the power TO regulate com.
merce, gave Congress the power TO create
paper currency with which 10 carry OF
that commerce. This was ano,he. speci-
men of s,ric, construction. He then an.
ayzed the 6scaIity, and demonstrated tina,
il was infinitely more objectionable than
the former bill, and if john Tyler should
sign this bill. after taking the high and ele-
vated ground he had done. in the veto mes
sage, he would eternally disgrace himself
He remarked in conclusion, that the Wings
had beeu condemned for much Of what they
had done al The present Session, but they
had done one thing for which they deser.
we'd the thanks Of every lover Of liberty
throughout The world, and lha, was, they
had most effcclually done for themselves.
This brough, up Mr.. Clay Of kentucky
and the manner in which he commenced,
led every Que presen, TO expec, an erup

Buchanan, in reply TO a remark Of Mr..
Archer, that he was better acquainted with
what was going ou at The Whie House
than lie (Mr. A. was, p!ayfuly replied
that ne was mol now, but hoped be soon
would be. Mr.. Clay took up this remark,
and supposed ii possible. and on this suppo-
sition poured out a torrent Of denuucialion
on The head Of John Tyler, in which the
vocabulary Of invec,ive was exhausted,
and concIusively established the reputation
Of the Speaker as the greatest rhetorical
blacksuard Of The age. The desertion Of
his political friends by The President, tsaid
Mr. c. would be an act worse than lrea-
sou. an ACT Of moral iurpitude, which had
never been equaled in any nge or country;
he would be cxecrable, arrocious, infa.
nous, and would srcudcr his name loath-
some in history; but, he thought this de-
sertion Of his friends and his principles by
the President TO be utterly irnpossible-the
soil Of Virginia was too pure 10 produce
such traitor, The discussion was furlh.
C. continued by Messrs. Buchanan, Walk
cr. King, Wright, Linn, Calhoun and
Preston. Mr.. Calhoun 10 alusion 10 some
remark Ivy Mr. Clay, as 10 his visits TO the
White House, remarked that he had had
no communication with the President for
the last two months, hut he would take
that OCCASION 10 say that he most heartily
fapproved Of the late veto; and thu, he
hoped the present bill, which he consider

Riyes then rose ant: read lecture

President from doing certain act, and

20, the object for which he said he had risen,
aud fell into the same strain OF argument
which he had rcbuked al the commence

that there were various ways .of making
known their opinions TO the Presidenl--one
was by confidential intercoursel with the
occupant Of The While House. the other
was for Senator 10 state them in his
Dlace, 10 the Senate Chamber. II was a
mere ma,tcr Of ras,e between him and the
Senator from Virginia, and he, (Mr. C.)
preferred the latter mode. Several efforts
were now made TO get a vote on the en-
grossmcn, Of The bill, but Mr., Berrien in
sisted on having an opportunity of answer
inc the Argument OF Mr.. Buchanan. and
moved an adjournment. The Democratic
Senators expressed their willingness 10
hear him then, but he persisted in his mo-
ton. which was carried by the Whis ma
and The Senate adjourned.
The House debated for an hour on the
Mcleod resolution. then talked another
hour on various resolutions which were
offered by members, and then adjourned.
WAsHISGroS, Sept. 9.
The Bank Bill Tor rather Fiscal Cor

But liule will he said concerning il. II
will 60 10 the President. and il in It's pre-
sen, shape. will assued!y be veloed--and
then follows a dissolution Of the Cabinet.
II is understood that the President will
sign the Land Distribution Bill. If so,
the Democrats cannot take office under
him; and his new Cabinet must be from
the Whig party. Should this state Of
things occur. there is end 10 his pre,en-
sions to the Presidency for another term.
