The MATTER SETTLED.-The resolutions
proposing to censurc Mr.. Adams have been
laid upon the table forever. The subject had
occupied the House for two weeks. Yet after
so long time large portion of the members
voted not TO dismiss the subject. EreTy Loco
foco member from the free States except fee

ing The resolution on the liable! This confirms
what we have before stated, that the northern
locos are busily engaged in getting up ques-
tons in Congress to madden the South and
then BY uniting with the South, prevent Con-
gress from doing any thing for the country
The locos do nothing else but labor to undo
what was done at the extra session and prevent
the Wings from doing any thing now and In
this they are aided by Wise, Profit, Gilmer,a
a half dozen others, who pretend to be Wings
at home but who are mere tools Of the locos I'm

Ifanv one wishes TO know what CONGRESSES
doing, the true answer is, that the great major
ity Of the Wings there are kept busy in deien-
ding themselves and the country from the
combined assaults of the Northern locos and
southern slave holders and nullifiers.
They are met in every progressive step by
this combination, who manifest more ola DIS
position to ruin the country than to do it good.

! Mr. Speaker, do not know that the TACT:
and arguments, and appeals submitted, or &c
be submitted in the debate on this question, can
make any impression on the POWER that rules
this nation. But there is one argument which
will yet make an impression, and that, in my
opinion, at no very distant day. When our
cotton shall come to be excessively burdened
by the British tariff, or utterly excluded from
the British market, then will the appeals now
made by the manufacturing and provision rails
ing and wool growing portions of the country
be remembered, and their force felt.
! have already alluded to the recent efforts
to extend the cultivation of cotton in British
India. The cotton growers, it is evident, are
aware of these efforts, and ofthe success which
has attended them. Sir they ought to awake
from their delusive dreams of an uninterrupted
and perpetual demand for their great staple in
the British market. The policy which has
begun, will carry on and carry out the move
ment to which have alluded. And this is rem
dered the more certain by the consideration
that the motives of interest in which it original
ed are to be reinforced by those of high moral
principle-a principle which is rapidly gaining
strength both in Europe and in America-urg
ing discontinuance of the use of those articles
which are the production of forced and unre-
Quilted labor.
1t may be well for the South 10 consider, in
this view of the matter, whether the time can
be very far distant when the closing of British
ports against her great staple shall drive her to
the North for her principal market; and wheth-
er it is not wise, as well as patriotic, for her
now to aid in giving sOlidity and permanency
to manufacturing establishments, and success to
the numerous branches of productive industry
which are dependent on them for support. And
she may well consider also, whether, after the
North has suffered from the fluctuations of the
policy which to-day forces her into nGnutac-
lures, and TOMORROW forces her out, she will
feel any very strong inducements to purchase
cotton from the South, when she can get it as
cheap elsewhere; whether, when she is asked,
as she certainly will be, in due time, to pro-
tect it by the continuance of the present, or the
imposition of new duty, she will not feel very
much inclined to leave the cotton growing in
terest to take care of ITSELF
Mr.. Speaker, it gives me no pleasure thus to
speak of the probable future. Rather would |
hope that the South will abandon its hostility
to the protecting policy; and that, under the
operation of that policy, adapted by wise and
prudent counsels, and in spirit of impartial
justice, to the present condition of the various
interests requiring protection, the diversified
resources ofthis great country will be rapidly
developed, and its East and West, its North
and Soulh, be more strongly bound together by
the ties of mutual dependence, and urged on
ward in noble rivalry of industry, of know
and of virtue, to the attainment of a high and
glorious destiny.

THE TARIFF AND THE LAND MON

THE TARIFF AND THE LAND MONEY.
One OF the main oi,jrc, ons to the Distribution
Of the Land Fund the part OF the Locos, was,
that it would render higher Tariff necessary
We never could admit that there was any force in
this ohjeciior-for the simple reason, that the
grcater the amount of money at the disposal Of The
Federal Government, the greater lis expenditure.
This has been the ever since modern Democ-
racy had sway The more they had. the more
they would spend-and in Mr., Van Buran's time
they spent all theft resources, and eight millions
year IN iditlon--for lIge portion OF which, they
went in debt. But it there any tnIce in the
objection il is now removed. 1t i, conceded that
the Tariff Bill Of the late session viii supply rev.
emu, ad, quate 10 all the wants at an economical
administration of the Government. The Federal
Government. therefore, has occasion for the
Land Aioney-end if permitted To retain H. will
sqnnndef it, az has .qusndered II for lae last ten
years. The wants OF the General GCveInment be.
ing thus provided Tor. plausible pretexl can be
urged against the St4tes receiving the Fund which
belongs to them. They stand dresdfully in need
of IT, Three-iourth, Of them are greatly emba-
raised, and TO maintain their faith, have to resort
TO additional taxation. This increased burden, the
people never worse prepared to bear. The
cry Of bard times ia universal, and it il rot uttered
wihout cause. The policy of the Loco Fncos-
which has had unchecked away FOR twelve years.
has wrought It's legitimate and predicted results.
1t has substituted widespread distress for gesers
prospeIity--and instead Of the better currency and
the better times which ii promised, has Pretty
nearly deprived us any currency, and made the
times worse than they have been during the present
century.
The people and the States. therefore, want the
Land money to relieve their embarrassment

their children and 10 carry forward their systems

Two beautiful Public Fountains are
