-UThcre was disgraceful "ro,o" in the
Mississippi House of Representatives on
the 10th instant. Mr.. Chiffon, of Vicks-
burg, introduced bill, whereupon Mr.
Tourney said he wished it read sin order
that all might see the rascality of it." Mr..
Merchison, of Natchez, exclaimed, in re-
ference to Mr.. Tourney, that he "regret-
ted to be compelled to sit on the same floor
with such scamp" The House got into a
tremendous uproar, and some time after
wards, as Mr.. Merchison was passing from
the Speakers chair to his place, Mr.. Flour
ney threw eaden inkstand at him, but
missed him and struck Mr.. Griffin in the
back.-LOu. Jour.

olutions were then laid upon the table, and
made the order Of the day for next week,
when it is expected Mr.. Clay will make an
argument upon each and all of them.
Mr.. Benton asked the Senate to come to
vote upon the Bankrupt BILL intro
duced by him at the commencement of the
session, and proposing the postponement of
its operations until the LIST of July next
The bill, without opposition, was brought
before the Senate, and upon the question
"Shall the bill be engrossedl" Mr.. Rives,
in few words, gave his reasons for voting
in the negative, as he said he should vote
when the subject came up. Although orig
inally opposed to the law, he was not pre-
pared now to oppose it. He would vote to
amend and to repeal, but he would not vote
to postpone when the effect would be con-
tinued agitation of the public mind. No
other Senator rose to speak, and no great
effort was made to bring the absentees in.
The author Of the bill seemed to wish for
nothing more than test vote, in order that
it might be known who would and who
would not oppose the bill. The question
was called for on all hands, and being ia
ken, resulted as follows:
YEAS-Messrs. Allen, Benton, Buch-
anan, Calhoun, Fulton, Graham, King,
Linn, McRoberts, Pierce, Sewer, Smith,
(of Connecticut) Sturgeon, Tappan, Wal
ker, Woodbury., Wright, Young-ls.
NAYS.-Messrs. Barrow, Bates, Berrien,
Choate, Clay, (of Ky.) Clayton, Evans,
Henderson, Huntington, Kerr, Mangum,
Merrick, Miller, Morehead Phelps, Porter,
Preston, Rives, Smith, (of IndianaO South
ard, Tallmadge, White, Woodbridge--23.
The vote was not unexpected, and there
fore, there was 10 great excitement when
the result was announced.
The orders of the day coming up, being
the proposed amendment of the Consttu-
ton, Mr.. Morehead addressed the Senate
in favor of it in very able speech.
In the House of Representatives, Mr.
Gentry moved that the general appropria.
ton bill be recommitted to the Committee
on Ways and Means to strike out every
item of appropriation not provided for by
law. Mr.. Fillmore said that upon exami-
nation the Committee found quite large

been appointed at first temporarily, anc

ton. Such was the case with regard to 6
large number of clerks in the Departments
with all but six of the clerks in the House
with the reporter of the Supreme Court
with the assistant librarian, &c. Mr.. F
said that as at present advised he must vote
against this motion. The motion was pass
ed by yeas ia, noes %.
