From the Concord IN. Ho Patriot

\
ABIGAIL FoLsoM.-The Boston Post of few
days since, had notice of the exploit Of Abb
gail Folsom in the Anu-Savery Convention,
recently held at Boston. The same LADY has
appeared in Concord, and on last Monday after
noon, she bore to the House of Representatives
"a message from God' She had attended abo-
litlon meetings here, and said but little. Her
mission was TO higher body, and the wrongs
OF the poor slave were left to be portrayed by
Abby Kelly and Mrs. Sanborn She took her
station in the north gallery of the House, and in
few moments after the House had been call
ed, rose and said in loud and distinct voice
"Mr. SPEAKER have come here with n
message from God. come TO warn you against
the appointment of select committees TO legis-
late for the people, for they are not of God and
cannot stand" Here the Speaker, though con
siderably startled at the announcement of mes
sage from Heaven, not recognizing her as the
proper medium of communication, ruled her out
OF order and ordered her to be removed She
declared, that "until God ruled her out of order
she should speak," aud continued-"and they
will therefore come to nought.n Her arm was
now seized by a door-keeper, who attempted to
remove her, but she, constrained contrawise by
her strong feelings, would not stir, and went on
- for God hath said thou shalt not eat of il.
for in the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt sure
ly die have come here from a sense Of duty.

Objected to.
Mr. TORRANCE asked leave to make motion
TO reconsider the vote OF Saturday, which to re-
consider the vote by which the report of the Select
Committee on tho rules, adopted This was de-
cided out CT order.
The business before the House being tie motion to
reconsider the vote by which the rules of last House
were adopted except the Dist rule, and Mr. Wise be-
ing entitled TO the floor
Mr. WISE resumed his remarks from Friday He
promised the House that he did rise inflct j,
more matter than necessary full invesg CATION
of this subject.
He had laid down the general proposition that there
were too classes of relations of slavery One, the do.
nestle relations which the Constitution of The United
cognzed The second. The Federal relation which
the Constitution did find existing, but which j,
created.
The domestic relation, embraced slavery in the
States in the District Of Columbia and in the Terri
tories
The Federal relation embraced the inter State re.
lstons; and so the relations between the States and
Territories and District and Terrores--the right IN
frdnsitu.
With the first relation, all protested 10 admit
that Government has nothing TO do With the second
class-the Federal class, all alike admit the General
Government hasssomethiDg TO do All those relations
which the Constitution OF the United States did no,
create, are domestic. And only those are Federal
which the Constitution did create. Slavery in the
District OF Columbia, was not created by the Consti-
tuition, and consequently with this, Government had
nothing TO do.

ELECTION OF PRINTER
Mr.. DIXON called up the resolution for the cleo
ton of aprnter to the Senate and modified 90 to
direct the election to take place Immediately
Mr. CLAY, of Alabama, said that he had intended
to address the Senate in opposition to the resolution,
believing to be infringement ofthe lights of Blair
d Rives, who we've still the actual and ghtu prin-
tiers of the Senate. Knowing however that his on
pos m would be useless, he should say nothing and
should take no part in the ballot; and he hoped his
friends would coincide with him in adopting this
course.
On the first ballot, the President announced twen
ty-sIx as the whole number of votes given, all of
which were for Thomas Allen.
Mr. KING observed that there quorum vo-
ting. Iwenty-seven votes were necessary to consli-
tue quorum, majority of which could elect
MI. CLAY replied that there were but fAy-ons
members Of the Senate at this time, (there being
vacancy in Tennessee) of which twenty six was 4
majority and quorum.
MIR. KING maintained that majority Of the con-
'''u'ionai number of the Senate (52) was necessary
to make quorum.
Mr. MANGUM insisted that as a quorum was
present, the majority ofvoes given should be sufficient
elect.
t''o'"ti phio' 'eh tooh pace Win the same re-
suit.
Mr.. SMITH, of Indiana, appealed to the Senators
on the other de to put end 10 this proceeding by
throwing IN a blank vote TO make Quorum and in
sure an election. lie had himself done 80 alone of his
party, on former aston.
Mr IAPPAN replied that they all considered the
whole proceeding as Illegal, and would not therefore,
conscientiously take part in IT,
Mr. CLAY, of Alabama responded to the appeal
of the Senator from Indiana by assuring him, that
any proper OCCASION they would be happy TO return
ms former courtesy.
Mr.. CLAY, of Kentucky, called the Senator from
Alabama 10 order The ballot was now gong on
and II was against all precedent to tolerate debate at
such time.
Mr.. CLAY, of Alabama, complained that the Sena-
tor from Indiana had been allowed to 20 on when he
ws5no permitted TO reply He was, however, corr.
PEELED 10 take his seat,
On the next ballot, twenty votes were given
Of which Thomas Allen received twenty five and Mr.
AL en- two. quorom having voted, andI Thomas
Allen having received majority OF the votes given,
declared elected printer Of the Senate for the pre-
sent Congress.

SECRET or wAp

The report OF the Secretary of War is deserving OF
special regard. 1t will be that he finds little
something to do in the Augean Stables even after the
herculean labnrs of General Jackson and il would
appear that he intends to direct the current of the Mis-
slssppi or of ssme other western river, into the
cleansing process. The suboined paragraph is worthy
of regard:
Enough has been brought to light to establish the
conviction that certain contractors have realized he
most enormous profits the greater portion of which is
believed to have been the direct fruit of gross fraud IN
