THIRD SESSION.
WAsnINGToN, Feb. 81, 1643.

UNITED STATES SENATE.
This morning letter was received
from the President OF the United States
enclosing his instructions TO Daniel Web.
ster, ESQ.,, upon the occasion OF the me-
gotia;ions Of the late treaty with Lord
Ashburton.
Mr.. Graham and Mr.. White presented
Joint Resolutions of the Legislature Of
Indiana upon the subject of postage and
the navigation Of the Rivers. The Reso-
lutons were read and laid upon the table.
Further returns we're also received from
the Secretary of State as TO the opera
tons Of the Bankrupt Law in different
States.
GENERAL JACKsoN'S FINE.
This bill came I'D upon the question,
"Shall il pass 7"
Mr.. Dayton addressed the Senate brief.
ly upon the merits of the bill, and gave
his reasons for voting against it. These
reasons were that the character of the
bill under consideration was unprece-
dented that it would be dangerous to
pass the bill; that Gen. Jackson was the
last man to merit the passage OF such
bill ; that il would be better to excuse the
humble rather than the more Distinguish
ed offender, &c. 1t was stated that no
bill had ever passed Congress Of char
acter like the present.
Mr.. Berrien said few words explana.
tory Of his vote against the bill.
Mr.. Conrad expressed himself disgust
ed with this eternal sycophancy to one
man. State Legislatures had passed Reso-
lutIons upon this subject without at alex.
aiming into the merits of the question.
For one, he would rather that his arm
should be severed from his body than
vote for such bill. He was tired and
heartily sick Of the sycopbancy and ser.
Witty paid to General Jackson.
Mr.. Linn thought this last remark was
personal, and desired an explanation.
Mr.. Conrad assured the Senate that
there was nothing personal in his remarks.
He spoke of the state of public sentl-
ment, and as one incident of this he would
refer to the recommendation OF the PresI-
dent made in his Annual Message to pay
General Jackson fine of three thousand
dollars, mingled up with grave state mat
ters.
Mr.. Linn was satisfied, and the bill
WAS passed by The following vote yeas
"a, nay 20.
The Naval Appropriation Bill was be-
fore the Senate, and several amendments
of the Senate Committee OF Finance,
were considered and debated at length.
The Senate remains in session as

A SKETCH


| Of the late FRaNcIs S6oTr Key, Esq. IA
Discourse deiirersd in Christ Church
4 Cincinnati, on The 27h January, lsa3
By the Rev. john L. Brooks, Rector
We had the pleasure Of listening to TIN.
discourse and rarely have we enjoyed SC
great a treat. Ii was beautiful exam
pie of che gracefulness with which man
of genius and unaffected pIety can render
a merited tribute TO the virtues Of KIN,
dred spirit. MIR. Key was, as is remark
ed in this sermon, mot only an extrsordi-
nary man, in the sense Of being aboveih
common level, but he was emphatically
a man after his own sort. His character
was in many respects unique" As a
man of intellect and professional em,aence
an orafor--a peet--a patriot a
christian, he was eminent; and Mr.
Brooke has in this sermon touched upon
his character in all these respects, with
great feeling, and at the same time with
admirable taste and discrimination
volding ON the one hand the tameness of
mere common place eulogy, and on the
other all that exaggeration which person.
al attachment might have dictated 1t is
beautiful production and believing that
Plety and virtue are best promoted by
such rare examples of excellence as that
Of the lameEted Mr.. Key, we recommend
our friends TO procure this little pamphlet
which they will find at Wilson & Brakes
Bookstore, West Fourth street, near
Main.
The following is an extract from the
sketch
GAS a poet. also, Mr.. Key was distin.
guished. Had he devoted himself to the
art, we doubt not that he would have
ranked among the moro eminent poets Of
the age. His occasional pieces, thrown
off in the intervals Of professional labor,
have been much admitted. They were
generally written under the influence Of
high devotional feeling, or the exci,emrn,
Of some stirring incident. He has LEFT
several hymns, which are as poetcal as
they are spiritual; and of his "Star-
spangled Banner" we need not speak -
to name il is sufficient! 1t was compos-
ed under circumstances so crsditable to
the energy of his character and the good
ness Of his heart, that we must be permit
ted 10 state them.
During the late war with Great Britain,
he heard that highly respectable friend,
IN the lower part Of Maryland, had been
taken prisoner. With his ownted prompt
ness he Immediately procured the neces-
sary papers for his friends release, re-
paired to the shore opposite the British
feet, took boat, hoisted fay and made
for the Admiral's ship. The commander
ofthe feet received hrmpoitely, bu, deem.
ed il prudent to deiain him, as they were
then making preparations for an attack on
baltimore. - And it was opposite thst city,
during the bombardment OF Fort M'Henry,
while watching, from day to day and
from hour 10 hour, the star spangled BAN
ner floating over the bat;lements, that he
gave vent 10 his feelings in that pathetic
song-a song which will be sung as long
as that banner shall wave as the emblem
Of our happy Union; and that, we be-
lieve, will be just so long as the nation
shall duty maintain the spirit Of the fol.
lowing lines:
.sThen conquer WE must,

MR.. TALLMADGE,

Mr.. Tallmadge, in his speech or the
Exchequer, related the following anecdote
of Mr.. Clay and himself:
Mr.. Tallmadge related the various
modes adopted by the Government for
keeping and discussing the public funds.
In treating of this subject, and Of the es-
tablshment of the first United States
Bank, he spoke in high terms of Mr.. Ham.
iton, whose mind, at the early age OF
thirty-two, brought order out of chaos.
The charter of the United States Bank ex-
pred IN 1871, another was established in
1916. That charter expired, and he was
one who voted against re-chartering the
Bank. He recol!ecte6 well the remark
which distinguished Senator from Ken
lucky, made to him shortly after he had
given his vote. "Sir," said he, a,heIe
was a Young man from the West in Con-
gress, in 1911, who voted against char
tering the old United States Bank. Time
went on and troubles came upon the
country. We attempted TO get along
without a National Bank, but we found il
indispensable to tho proper management,
Of the finances OF the country, and the
preservation Of a sound and uniform cur
rency. That young man was convinced
by experience, that the vote he had given
was an erroneous one, and in 1916 be
voted TO charter another United States
Bank. You have now voted as that young
man did at first, against re-chartering the
Bank but time an experience will, have
no doubt, convince you, as they did him
that you have committed an error"
And sir, said Mr.. T., stand here to
confess that time and experience have
convinced me of my error, and 10 ac
knowledge that Mr.. CLAY was right.

WEDNESDAY, Feb. 81,
UNITED STATES SENATE.

UNI Eli OiA DEANA
Mr.. Walkers Resolution offered on
Monday evening, in reference to the Con.
stitutionalily Of the assumption of State
deots, and the fact that the assumption of
them by one Congress would not bind ano'
Their to pay them, came up in order, and
bid fair at once to consume the whole day
and 10 take the place of the other more
important business.
Mr.. Walker expressed himself willing
to vote to-day or to morrow. lie had
something, however, to say upon his Re-
solutlons-much more than the Senate
were willing to hear.
Mr.. Tallmadge said it must be obvious
at this period of the session, that there
was no time to discuss these Resolutions.
In order 10 get rid of the whole subject,
and proceed to the consideration Of public
business, he moved to lay the Resolutions
upon The table. The vote was-yeas 20,
nays l6.
For the fifth time these abstract Reso.
tutions were disposed Of

In the House of Representatives, las,

the act of 1890, was agreed to. Several
amendments were then proposed and re-
jecied after which the bill was finally
passed by vote Of 90 to so. The House
Then adjourned.
