Mr. ScHENcK, Of Ohio, some time since proposed
resolution of inquiry in the House ofRepresenta-
tives as to the right of those members who were
elected on the General Ticket System to hold seats
in that body, on the ground that they were chosen
in direct violation Of solemn act of Congress which
requires each member to be elected from a single
district.
This important question was disposed Of, as might
have been anticipated from the political complexion
of the majority in Congress: it was laid on the
table.
Such discoureous proceeding is significant
We presume the members from New Hampshire,
Missouri, and Mississippi will be allowed to boast
of having broken through the cobweb of law OF the
land so long as the twenty-ninth Congress exists.
Should this prove to be the actual result of any
movements on this grave subject, it will be only a
small instance of Locofoco success in battling with
the constitution and laws of the land
The comparative indifference of the public to the
whole subject evinces a melancholy state Of the
popular mind. The people are becoming so much
accustomed to see these wounds daily inflicted on
the Constitution, that this one scarcely excites a
shrug.-N r. Eapress.

INDIANA STATE DEBT.-The Agent Of large
number of the bondholders of the State Of Indiana
has addressed letter to the Governor of that State,
in which the following propositions are made for
the arrangement Of the State debt. He proposes
that propertytax of three mills, and polltax of
seventy-fve cents, be laid by the Legislature. This
will produce sufficient sum to pay two per cent.
per annum on the public debt during the next six
years, and leave surplus of one hundred thousand
dollars to be applied for the reduction Of the do
mestic debt, which will be paid up at the end of
that time. BY laying then an additional holf mill
tax property, the State will be able to pay three
per cent. interest on the public debt and have
considerable surplus to be used as a sinking fund
for the payment Of the principal. 1t is believed
that after 1851 the revenues of the Wabash and
Ohio Canal, completed to the Ohio river, may be
relied on for the balance of the interest. The re-
ception Of the Agent has been very favorable, and
the disposition on the part of the people TO attempt
the payment Of the State debt appears to be con-
siderably ncreased.-PenasyiUani

THE OREGON QUESTION.

A
Our readers will find matter Of deep interest in
the account of Tuesdays proceedings of the Senate
The extreme resolutions of Mr.. HANNEGAN on the
subject of Oregon coming up for consideration, were
met by counter propositions from Mr.. Senator
CALHOUN, which important as disclosing the
views Of so distinguished and influential member
of the body, and are eminenty important as an in
dicaon that there are Senators of the dominant
party who think that peace may yet be preserved
with honor, and who are not, at any rate, disposed
to incur the hazards and horrors of war until all
efforts for pacific and honorable adjustment of the
dispute shall be exhausted.
In the HOUSE yesterday resolutions were intro
duced something like those moved in the SENATE,
which the mover desired to be Immediately con-
sidered; in which desire, however, the House did
not indulge him. having refused, by decisive vote,
to suspend the rules for the purpose.
Later in the day, debate sprung up on the oc-
cason of bill reported for raising two additional
regiments of Dragons, Qor service in Oregon,) in
which Mr.. ADAMS expressed sentiments which he
is well known to entertain, differing in regard 70
them in some degree from most of his personal and
political friends. For more distinct understand
ing of his views, our readers are referred to the
report of his speech.

The Tallahassee papers state that the Hon. SAM
uEL W. CARnAcK, Wing, has been elected by the
Legislature Of Florida Judge of the Superior Court
for the Southern Circuit of that State. The Judge
is spoken of as sound lawyer and man of ster-
ling integrity, and it is only such men who adorn
and dignity the bench. This is one among the very
rare instances occurring in which the majesty OF
truth and principle riumphs over party intolerance,
and the Legislature of Florida have evinced their
wisdom and patriotism in having kept the ermine
of Justice unpouted by its baneful influence.

INsTRUCTING SENAToRs.-Ihe ne w ashngt0n Union
seems to think that instructions TO Senators is occa
sionally advisable, and somewhat SO at the present
time The Senators to be instructed, and for what
object, are not known. The Legislatures of States
may have right to instruct their Senators on the
passage of laws, but political partisan SUBJ
jects. The right of instruction cannot be made to
assume control over the private views of Sena-
tors, or the judgments at which they may arrive on
any particular question. The country may ere
long have occasion to congratulate itself on having
Senators independent enough TO exercise their
own judgment on great questions of domestic po-
licy-Neto York Sun.

To Justify ourselves to our readers for transfer
ring to our columns the subjoined further discus
sion Of the merits of the Oregon Negotiation, we
repeat that the remarks of the Journal of Com
merce, aside from their intrinsic force, are entitled
to the fair consideration of all Independent persons
and presses from the fact Of that journal being
sentialy Democratic, opposed to the Wings at the
late National election, and still, sometimes without
occasion, showing deep-seated prejudice against
them. So strongly has that paper acted against the
Wings, that it has been said to have elected Mr..
Polk by the votes which it influenced, as indeed
the Editors in the of the article below, vir-
tually claim to have done. This controversy,
therefore, between the " Union'' and the /" Journal
of Commerce" if of party character is one be-
tween members Of the same party between the
organ of the Administration Of Mr.. Polk, now that
he is President and the organ Of that part Of the
Democracy which made him President. Let the
upright and independent men Of all parties judge
between them.
