Congress.

On Monday week, was the day for the annual
convening of Congress, and at 10 O'Clock the
Mem bers of both branches met in their respec-
tive Halls. In the House lis members an
swered to their names, more than sufficient TO
constitute quorum, but in the Senate, only "a
members were present, not quorum. No ousl-
ness was therefore transacted in either House
On Tuesday, a quorum of Senators still being
wanted, nothing was done in either branch. On
Wednesday, however, three additional Senators
appeared and took their Seats and the business of
the Session was taken up. The Presidents Mes
sage was received and read, and large number
of copies, with the accompanying documents, or
dered to be printed. 4 number of motions were
made by different members, among which was one
by Mr. Adams, Of the House, to repeal the Rule
prohibiting the reception of abolition petitions,
ond one bv Mr. Benton of the Senate, for permis-
sion to bring in Bill TO repeal the Bankrupt Act
Al our latest accounts the standing committee;
had not vet been appointed. AS soon as they are
named, we expect both Houses will proceed &c
ba siness, in real earnest.

The Presidents Message.

This annual document of the Chef Magistrate
of the Union, was submitted to both Houses Of
Congress on Wednesday last. In our opinion it
is very ordinary affair-twice as long as neces-
sary-and by no means as well written as some
of its predecessors. The most of it is occupied
with recital of our foreign relations, and state
ment of the condition of the several departments
or State. 1t is remarkable nasmuch as it con-
tains but four recommendations to Congress. The
first. is modification of the defects in the new
Tariff act, and an alteration in the mode of COL
lecting the arising from duties, by adopt
inc the Warehousng System. as it is called. The
second is an increased appropriation of nearly
million of dollars to the expenses of the Navy, to
support SQUADRON on the Coast of A Grica, and to
purchase a stock of clothing for sailors and ma
rines. The third, is the adoption of the Exchequer
Plan, as reco mmended by him last winter. And
the fourth, is the reimbursement OF the one hous
and dollar fine, imposed upon General Jackson,
bv Judge Hall, at New Orleans, during the late
War This is the sum tota' of all which John
TYLER deems necessary for Congress to do for the
good of the Country. The whole tenor of the
Message is calculated to creaIe the impression that
the country is in happy and prosperous condi-
tion Nothing can be further from the truth than
this The country was never in more deplora-
ble situation than has been during the past year,
and is at this time. We give the Message entire,
however, in to-days paper, that our readers can
see for themselves and form their own opinions.

E0s1n G. Colt.

The excitement incident to the fate of this un-
happy individual, still continues to disturb The pub
lie mind. Many of the citizens Of New York en-
lertain suspicion that Colt is still alive. They
think the circumstances attending his rumoured
death. VIZ: the postponement Of the execution un-
I'll almost nighi-the firing OF the prison at that
litpa--ihe private examination Of the body 10y the
Coruaer's lhoues.-and the speedy removal of the
coffin, said to contain the dead body, to Connect
cut, are too strange to be implicitly relied upon.
DR.. Hosack, however, who was well acquainted
with him, has published letter in which he pos
i,ively declares that colt did kill himself He
says he him the morning Of his death, and
again Immediately after he was found with the
dirk in his heart, and that he could not have been
mistaken in the identity.
