From III. Nation al Mfet6geneer.

We dare say there are some resdrrs
who may have thought the suggestion by
Mr.. Adams. in his report upon the Presi.
dents Reasons for signing the Apportion.
ment Act, Of the existence Of embryo de-
signs for defeating the execution Of that
act, to have been unkind, and even harsh,
rather than natural and probable. We
confess that our eyes were first opened by
that report to the possibility of any serious
design to resist or evade the provisions oil
the superintendent act. Already, howe.
yer, we have evidence that Mr.. Adams is
right, and that, in the rage and fury OF
party zeal, i, is quite possible that an III
| tempt may be made to break down the
barriers OF the Constitution by an outrage
yet more violent than that perpetrated in
the case of the New Jersey election
The evidence to which we refer is the fol-
lowing significant paragraph from one o.
the most thorough going Loco Foco pa
pers in the Union, which boldly avows the
design to I at defiance the Constitution
and the Laws, and take the chance o
having q majority Of its own party in the
next House of Representatives to stand
by its niquity.

A WISE DrcIsloS.-The Trauscri,

A WISE Decision. The Transcrip,
gives the following profound and salisfac-
tory solution Of the question, whether the
distribution of the proceeds Of land sales
ought to be suspended, in case Of the
raising Of duties above 20 per cent. The
question is stated to have been PROFOUND
ed to learned professor Of certain Uni
versity, native Of Virginia, who decided
as follows Boston DAILY ADJ.
"Scicnce has discovered that a tube,
being inserted in fountain, and the at.
mospherc air expelled therefrom, the wa
ter will rise therein, for all the reason
that Nature abhors a uacuuB,, but that il
will not rise above thiny-,wo feet, be-
cause Nature does not nbhor vacuum 10
any greater height. So, although il has
been demonstrated that reason, expedlen-
cy. and justice to the States, require the
distribution Of the proceeds of the public
lands, yet the reason, expedicncy. and
justice Of the measure, ceases when duties
on imports are raised above 20 per cent.
OF the same principle that the rise of wa.
ter in the tube stops at the point Of 81 f.
because Nature does not abhor vacuum
beyond that point"
