The Rev. Chaplain was very eloquent
aud impressive, and after touching upon
the immense responsibilities Of zach a
body OF legislators, in loud and solemn
voice, said: "a MEssAcE FROM THE SIN.
ATE"-(paasiog a moment, when John
Quincy Aa%ms suddenly turned his head
towards the door where the messenger
ION the Senate usually upproaches) -
! tor THE DEAD"-adde Mr.. Nailit. cit
comes from the client halls where
lSOUTHARD sleeps, and where many
of your Congressional brethrcn repose!
do not recollect the words Of the mes
sage-but it was most tender, sweet and
solemn, AID fell upon the vast assemblage,
like, indeed, "a message from the Senate
of the tomb"
The Reverend Chaplain makes very
short but neat and classic prayer The
following is every word that he uttered IN
that service yesterday monogj took II
down at the moment:
"ALMIGurY Con! As with the coun,

THE CASE OF GEN. HULL.

Read the whitening rebuke below y!
Mr.. Calhoun said that he was not u
Itule surprised with several tAings con-
aected with the Senate.
lie wa, ia the first place surprised that
he representatives of Gen. hulI should
ever think Of presenting this claim to Con.
gress. lie would not be more so, II lhe
representatives OF Arnold should present
Il claim for his pay, as general Ia our
service, after ne had committed his lrea'
sou, on the ground that he held the COM
mission Of general, which had not been
revoked. il would be every whit as re-
markabIe as this. He could never forge,
the deep and universal Indignation which
pervadeu the whOl9 country on the sur
render of Detroit. Never before or since
lad he witnessed any thing like II. lie
agreed with bis colleague that The judy
mont then pronounced by the public on
the act had never been reversed, aud
probably never would be.
He was still more surprised that 80 re
spectacle committee as that on the Ju'
dietary should report IN favor of the clam.
How could his pay as Governor be ais
lowed, when there was from the tiwR, 30
such Territory as Michigan? Il had, by
his own act, become British Province.
and remained 50 unit! il was conquered
by the army under Gen. Harrison. With
what show, then, Of justice or equity,
could he be paid governing Territory did
not exist by his own act? The error OF
the Committee consisted in snpposIug that
! the cornmssion--the mere paper aud wax
and not the service, gave the paw.
! But what surprised him most OF all was
the fact that the respectable committee
should report ia favor OF the claim OF
Gen. Hail, after haUng reported against
that OF General Jackson. Hsclalun was
a clear case. he paid the fia2 which bad
been imposed for an act doue ia the per-
iomrance Of a duty Of the last importance

! THINKS OF the Government and the country
land yet, the same committee, at the same
session, which reported against returning
tic money to eien. jackson, who success
fully defended New Orleans, now report
in favor of allowing tho pay OF Gen. Hon
for governing the Territory Of Michigan
which he for time lost 10 the Union by
cowardtco aud trea9ooi How strange
that such unequal justice should be meted

MOTHERS, BE ON YOUR GUARD
This is the season when this destructive com
plant attacks your interesting little children, Oh
ten robs you of those you fondly doat on, and
carries hundreds to the grave. Every mother
should, therefore, knowits symptoms, watch
them closely, and always be prepared with rem
cdy to cure it, as many are daily sacrificed by
such neglect. At first the little patient is selzed
with shivering, it grows restless, has fushes of
heat the eyes become red and swollen, it breathes
with difficulty, and then comes that fearful
COUGH that will surely terminate in convul-
sions or death unless something is Immediately
given to check it. In this complaint the "BAL-
SAM OF WILD CHERRY" is well known to
be the most speedy cure ever discovered. 1t is
indeed a precious remedy mild, safe and inno-
cent and sure to give the little sufferer immedi-
ate relief, and quickly restore it to safety and
health. Every mother who loves her children
should always keep it in the house and give it to
them early; by doing so you may often save the
life of one you iondly love. Remember this is
the famous remedy Of that distinguished physi-
clan, DIR. Wstar, which has cured thousands of
CROUP. WIIOOPlNG COUGH, ASTHMA,
CONSUMPTION, Sc, after every other mcd-
cine had failed.
