The objection to the exercise of theveto upor
acts of a majority of the Legislature is demol
ished in the Presidents Message, as the Consti
tuition now stands. How can the veto be exer
cised at all unless it be upon acts of the major
ity2 There can be surely no chance to vett
measures of the minority. No law can be ex
posed to the veto-none can be passed excep
by the majority. The Constitution contem
plates the application of the veto to acts of the
majority, and to none other. 49,,
We observe, also, in various quarters strong
COMBINATIONS of the Veto Power, and dspo-
stion is indicated to amend the Constitution, by
abolishing the power. Now, we would like to
ask these gentlemen whether circumstances
would not alter the case, and possibly moderate
their zeal. Suppose National Bank had been
chartered by this Congress to endure twenty
years; and imagine few years hence the pre-
sent Opposition to be in power, with their prin-
ciples of repeal!. will they undertake to say
that, if bill to repeal the charter of their Bank
were sent to the President, they would then
still cry out against the exercise Of the veto
On the contrary, they would hail it as "the
great Conservative principle of our SYSTEM"
and throw up their hats, as though they would
chang them on the horns of the moon," in ap-
pause of the man who should exercise it, 1t
is your bull that cores. our OK now; that is all.

MODERAT

In the ode of Horace to Delius, he tells him,
loud mirth, or immoderate sorrow, inequality of
behavior, either in prosperity or adversely, are
alike ungraceful IN man, that is born to die
Moderation in both circumstances is peculiar to
generous minds. Men of that sort ever taste
the qualifications and advantages of life, as il
they were liable to part with them, and when
bereft of them, resign them with greatness Of
mind which shows they know their value and
duration.
The contempt of political prosperity is a Ger
tain preparatory for the contempt of political ad
versity. Without this the mind of the polti
clan is, as it were, taken suddenly by an un
foreseen event; but he that has always been alb
stinent and moderate in his rejoicings and salts
factions, enjoys, in the worst of difficulties, the
reflection, that his anguish is not aggravated
with the comparison of past pleasures, which
upbraid his present condition. o.,
In these times of difficulty and trial, moders-
ton will prove saving virtue. He who gives
way to Incorporate zeal on the one side or the
other, or takes counsel of his passions, will
some day feel regret and notification.
In our opinion there is enough of honesty, o.
intelligence, and of patriotism, in the temper
and character Of the President to secure the be
nefts of prudent and useful administration
and to challenge the favor and support of tn
moderate men or all part,es.

CABINET CHANGES.

1t was understood, yesterday, that Mr.. EWING
the Secretary of the Treasury, and Mr.. CRIT
TENDEN, the Attorney General, had on that day
given notice 10 the President of the U. States OF
their intention to resign to-day their respective
offices. 1t was rumoured 1--WE know not with
what truth) that the Secretary of War, and the
Secretary Of the Navy would also resign, and
that the Secretary of State, and the Postmaster
General would remain steadfast at the posts
which they have filed with so much honor, and
general favor.
1t is to US matter Of regret and surprise, es-
pecially after the conciliatory Message of the
President, that any members of the Cabinet
should think it their duty to retire from the Elk
ecutive Administration in which they have been
so long harmoniously and successfully engaged.
The reasons for the step alleged to be taken
have not yet transpired.
We do not doubt, however, that competent
and efficient gentlemen, will be promptly called
by the President to fill any places that may DE
vacated, and that the public business will not in
any event suffer any serious interruption.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,,

The Speaker announced the Select Committee on
the personal rencontre between Messrs. Wise and
Stanly- as follows Messrs. Ingersoll Morrow, Eve

The Revenue bill, which was yesterday sent to the
Senate with an amendment by the House to the pro-
viso added by the Senate the second section having
been returned by the Senate with notice that they adj
here to their original amendment, was taken up.
A brief debate arose on the question of the two
amendments, and the character of each. Mr.. FILL
MORE moved that the House insist on their amend
ment with view to the appointment of Committee
Of Conference. Messrs. Shields, Dawson, Hopkins,
Warren urged the propriety of recedng and Messrs.
Fillmore Tillinghast Arnold, and G. Davis express
ed themselves in favor Of insisting.
The House voted 10 insist: Yeas SO, nays 76.
Mr. HOPKINS, from the Committee on the Post
Office and Post Roads, presented communication
from Col Gardner late Auditor of the Treasury for
the Post Office Department, demonstrating against
the tendency of certain passages in the recent
municaton Of the present Auditor (Mr. Whittesey)
which seemed to reflect his conduct in that Office
After some some objections, from Messrs UNDER
WOOD and ANDREWS to the communication as
contrary 10 usage, it was laid aside.

the National Intellgencer. OF the guilt of pre-
eipitating that sdanger" we wash our hands
Let it rest with those whose consciences will
tell them that they need not US for accusers.
Under the circumstances we have partially
enumerated, so unfavorable to healthful delibe-
ration, was not the President justified in desir-
ing a postponement2 II strikes US that, when
the noise and clamor of party fury and violence
have died away, the American people, who do
not in the mass psrtake of the passions of self
ish politicians, will agree that their Chief Ma
gstrate, in this view of the matter at least, was
guided by prudent csunsels. u.
To what further extreme the question may be
urged at this session, we cannot divine. We
hope Congress will be satisfied to leave the gen.
eral question, without closing up any more Of the
avenues of hope, till the winter session, when,
as the President sincerely anticipates, some
measure of finance may be deliberately adopt
ed, promotive Of the good of our common coun-
try" The temper of the Message is concilia-
tory, and while the President compliments Con-
gress for the mass of useful labor they have per-
formed, he submits whether the present differ
ences of opinion should be pressed further at
this time, and whether the peculiarly of his
situation does not entitle him [if any hope Of
agreement is to be INDUCED to postponement
of this subject to more suspicious period for
deliberation," as he Z" sincerely desires time for
deep and deliberate reflection"
| Notwithstanding the subject is narrowed by
the veto of two bills, yet we are not without
hope that there is still room for building up a
system which shall be constitutional and perma-
uent, and meet the just wants and expectations
which the county INDUCES, in reference to ma
tional legislation on this question. So long as
that hope exists, we shall stand by the Presi-
dent.

CAMP NORTH EASTERN BoUNpARY)
September ID; 1S4l.
Hon. DANIEL WEBSTER,
Secretary of State, Washington.
Sir: My attention having very recently been brought
to several notices in the newspapers Of the United
States, Of statement contained in the Woodstock
(New Brunswick) Telegraph of the 18th ultimo, in
refeIence to the surveys and explorations now pro-
gressing by order of the Government of the United
States under my immediate direction for the purpose
of acquiring information connected with that portion
of the boundary in dispute between the Unitsd States
and Great Britain, which is included between the
monument at the source of the st. Croix and the
highlands described In the treaty Of iJe3, deem h
proper inform the Department Of State that 50
have any knowledge the article in question Ia
erroneous in its most important statements.
Neither myself or any of my officers had received
any intimation of the existence Of excitement in
the vicinity of our operations, arising from our pro-
ceedngs, until we saw the matter alluded to in the
newspapers of own country, nor has violence
ever been offered in opposition to them On the con-
trary have generally met with civil treatment from
Her Britannia Majesty's subjects residing near the
line of exploration, and the same disposition has al
ways been manifested towards them in return.
1t is not true that marking the line United
States boundary line" as has been stated. The sur
vey being ordered solely for the purpose Of acquiring
information is limited to that object and the princi
pal stations where it has been necessary to mark
them, in order that they may hereafter be identified
have been designated by the words " U. s. ex-parts
survey" with the date added.
Neither the question of jurisdiction, that of al
legiance thepar of the inhabitants heretofore sup
posed to be residents of the Province Of New Bruins
wick, has been interfered with by myself an
of my party, so far have any knowledge. Gu
operations have been confined to the objects pointe
out in my instructions from the Department, and
have no whatever to apprebend that obstacle
will be thrown in the way of their fufment
have the honor to be,
Sir, very respectfully,
