In THE House, the Report Of the Committee on
Elections coming up, Mr.. THoMPsoN Of Miss,
took the floor, and said that the question before
the House was one questioning his rig ght to seat
on the floor, a doubt to which he never enter
tanned; but, as 1t was question OF vast lmPor-
tance, and one which this House has the Judicial
power to decide and from whose judgement there
is no appeal, it should be met IN spirit OF fair
ness He contended that the Constitution gave
hin, a right there and that the precedent winch
decision IN favor Of the law dlstr!ctng the
States would make, would be dangerous one.
Mr.. STEPHENS believed the law dlstrlctlDg the
States was constitutional, and that the States
were bound to obey that law. This was his IN
diyidual opinion; but the question was now be-
fore the tribunal TO which the Constitution has
submitted this subject, and BY whose judgement
he was willing to abide.
Messrs. BRowS, PAYNE, NEWTON, and Hunt,
took part in the discussion.

WAsAlSGr3S, Saturday. Feb 10.


WAsAiNGroS, Saturday. Feb. 10.
The Senate was not in session to-day
In the House, the question OF privilege q. e. of
the validity of the claims to seats of the Gene
raj Ticket members was discussed during the
entire day and until adjournment at a late hour.
by Messrs. Norris of n. III. CHArpELL of Ga.
and CArLIy, in opposition TO the law and in favor
of the claims Of these members to their seats:
and by Mr.. SUMMERS on the opposite side and by
other gentlemen, the arguments mainly being but
a repetition Of those formerly advanced, and the
debate partaking Of but little interest.
One Of It's features eIiciting momentary atten.
ton, as being so decided q rarity III these days.
was studied Qor the speech was ready and warm
eulogy by Mr.. CArLlS OF Mr.. Tylcrs administra.
ton, with particular reference to the several We.
toes. Mr.. C. however protested against being
considered an apologlst or culoglst; some Of his
acts he could not approve. Still the name Of
John Tyler, he said, would be cherished as that
of an enlightened statesman and devoted patriot
lono after the names of his calumniators should
be buried in oblivion.
Mr.. SUMMERS made an eloquent and able
speech in opposition to the claims Of the member,
in question.
MIR. CnArpgLL, instead OF Joining with his
brother Wing from Ga. (Mr. SrEpHENs,) in the
noble stand so galanlly taken by him in defence
of the law, and against his own temporary inter.
est, was found pettilogging in the usual Loco
style against the validity of the act.
The majority have determined in caucus upon
closing the debate on Tuesday
The argument before the Supreme Court on tho
Gerard Will case has been continued to-day By
Mr.. WEBSTER on the part Of the heirs, and is said
to be one of his great efforts. The courtroom
was filled to overdowing an hour or two before
the opening of the Court, and continued so dur
ing the day--a goodly portion of the assembly
being composed Of ladies, and dmany being unable
to gain admittance. Mr.. w. will occupy MONDAY
with the continuation Of his argument. ARGUS
