IMPORTANT VOTES IN CONGRESS
Washington, March 81, l842.

The reader will be glad to learn that
yesterdays sitting was not without fruit
in both Houses Of Congress.
In the Senate the first and sixth Of
Mr.. ClOy's series Of resolutions we're
agreed to, (lho llth having heretofore
been agreed to3 and all tho rest of the
resolutions were severally referred TO
tho appropriate standing committees,
But the important vote OF the day
was that in which Mr. Rives's amend
ment, proposing suspension OF the
distribution portion of the Land Act Of
tho last session, was negatived BY q
majority Of one vote,
In the House af Representatives the
Loan Bill was taken out Of Committee
Of the Whole, after being amended in
all respects as proposed by the Commit.
tee Of Ways and Means, and after the
rejection of a number Of olher amend
ments proposed to it. The most impor

osiuon to suspend the operrlion of the
Distribution Act Of the last session was
negatived by majority Of twenty sever
votes, being majority much larger
than that by which tho Distribution Ac
was passed at the last session in the

"StratoS Show horp the wtnd blOtDS "
The Spring election came off in this
township, on Monday last, with some
spirit. The Wing Trustees, Assessor,
Constable, Supervisors, &c. were elect,
ed by an average majority OF about
twelpe potes. The Locofoco candidates
for Treasurer and Clerk were elected,
in consequence of the disafIecion Of a
few Wings towards some Of the regu-
larly nominated Wing candidates. We
noticed professed Wing who lahored
most assiduously in conjunction with tho
Clerk OF the Court, 10 elect the Locofoco
Clerk and Treasurer; and these ttOiT
brothers succeeded merely because the
proper means were not used to counter
act their efforts. The whole number OF
votes fell short Of the number poIled in
this township last fall, about 20; and
we count ttOelUe absent Whig voters.
To give strength to their ticket the
Locos placed on it therame OF our bril-.
liant representative, Matthew Atkinson,
for overseer Of the Poor; and he was
beaten by respectable farmer just ls
votes. Mr.. Atkinson's majority in this
township last fall was ID. The loss on
his former vote, therefore, is about 80.

GFWe are gratifed to announce
that the majority in the House Of Re-
Presentatives, on the motion of Mr..
StanIy, Wing member, has adopted a
rule by which a bill may be taken out

vote of mere majority instead of two
thirds, as required heretofore, by for

PRESIDENTS SPECIAL MESSAGE.
The President Of the United States,
in vew'of the exhausted state of the
finances and credit OF the Government
has deemed it necessary 10 address a
Special Message to the House of Repre-
sentatives, which will be found at large
in our columns. We are pleased TO see
captain" TYLER commit himself fairly
as he does in this Message, on the sub
ject Of the Tariff. Al the same time,
we view with humiliation. not 10 say
modification, his vacilIating course in
relation TO the distribution of the pro
coeds Of the Public Lands! Something
however, had 10 be said to sppease the
anti-Tariflites. Perhaps, that purpose
could not be more conveniently accom-
plished in any other way. The prope
siton to repeal the Distribution act, we
hope, will meet with uncompromising
opposition. Ifthe President is disposed
to play fast and loose, the majority in
Congress, for that very reason, will
strive the harder 10 maintain their fGtl,
lly TO the people.
Carroll free press. [volume] (Carrollton [Ohio]) 1834-1861, 1842-04-08
PRESIDENT TYLER AND THE
LAND BILL.

The MadsOnian, the special organ Of
President Tyler assumes the ground,
that the Presidents recent Message does
not recommend the REPEAL, but merely
the SUSPENSION Of the provisions Of the
Distribution Act. The Madsonian may
be right as to what the President intend.
ed but, il so, that high functionary has
been un fortunate ia the use of terms TO
convey his meaning.
