inendment from the Judiciary Committee
making the contiguous district system

a vote of40 nays TO ayes.
In THE HoUsR, a communication was
received from Arthur Middleton, Esq,
rendering portrait of Columbus.
Mr.. M. stated that "whlle in charge Of

fortune, after many fruitless searches in
quest Of the genuine likeness, TO fall in
with that of which he presented copy,
executed for himself by Senor Aladrazo,
director oflhe Royal Museum in'ihat

The communication was referred 20 the
Committe on the Library.
Mr.. Cooper, Of Georgia, submitted the
following resolution, which was agreed
to:

hardly a house or a wall that has not

PARTY SPIRIT.

We have received from a wbig friend
a long communication in opposition to
plrIyism. II our correspondent had sent
his communication TO his own political or.
gan, so that it might be used to distract
his own party, we should have less reason
to doubt his sincerity. II is a notorious fact
that wherever and whenever our political
opponents have been in the minority, they
have opposed party organization, parlicu-
laIly among the democrats, and question
ed The motives of party men; but their
frequent caucussing and strict party drill
in Congress where they have majority,
plainly show that they too can become
parlizans when their men or measures
may be thereby promoted. Those who
look upon political contests as merely a
scramble between individuals for place
and power, will attempt 10 divide the
party that has no object in view but the
permanent good Of the whole COMMUNE
~. But such attempts have very seldom
been successful; and when successful, the
result has only aided TO sonvince tho dem.
ocracy at least, the true friends Of their
country, Of the necessity Of party organi.
zlIion. For though they may occasion.
ally differ on some minor points, they
have but enc common object in view, and
they may find It necessary to COMPROMISE
these minor differences for the accom-.
plishment Of that object, the greatest good
TO the greatest number. So long as uur
institutions exist, there will probably be
Two principal parties -one dsfcndino

llcan Institutions. This latter party, tho,
it has seldom had the oscrndency, is
nevertheless = formidable one, and II
has required The utmost vigilance Of the
democracy to prevent the total subvcrsion
of our free institutions. We Go not &C.
case the whole of the whg or federal
party of being influenced by bad motives
or by hostility to our free institutions. So
long as error has learned, .hrewd or in
