VETO OF THE RIVER AND HARBoR BILA.--
1t is with profound pleasure tina: we are ena-
bled to lay the Presidents views upon the
question of Internal Improvements, before our
readers. 1t is the first time he has had coca.
sion to exercise the veto power, and we look
upon it as the brightest and most noble act of
his administration. Especially do We view
i, in this light at this particular time, when
we have barren treasury and a war to sup
port. But we are merely writing an introduc-
tory notice of the message, and do not intend
to discuss the subject of Internal Improve

Rail- Road Meeting.

We publish below, the proceedings of the
meeting called for Tuesday evening last, to
receive the Report of the delegates to the MAJ
riOn convention. From the resolutions which
were adopted, as we'll as others submitted
FoE consideration, il will be seen that the PEG.
pie Of Wilmington are in earnest about this
matter. 1t would be lasting shame if, after
exciting to the highest the enthusiasm Of our
spirited neighbors, orr actions do not cores
pond with our language. Subscription books
ought to be opened at once. We have talked
abe subject dry, and now it is time for work.
Abe resolutions TO which we have lust refer
red are welt calculated to encourage the hone
that "e mean to do every thing necessary to
the accomplishments of this great enterprise.
we were pleased to see them; they manifested
a hardy Independence, and an honest self-re.
tiance which does honor to our citizens.
While the Raleigh folks are gambling, let Us
be doing; and while they wait TO crush US in
the Legislature, let US be gathering strength
with the people. In order that certain Of the
resolutions might be fully canvassed, it was
suggested at the meeting that the question up
on them should be delayed until Wednesday
evening next, when we hope every man in
Wilmington, who has property or labor to
represent, or who feels any interest in the
prosperity OF his town, will be at the Mason
&c Hall, and give his counsel in the presen,
interesting State Of our affairs

ADJOURNMENT OF CoNGREss-The following
article on the adjournment If Congress, we
take from the Union of the 10th instant:
Both Houses of Congress adjourned this
day, in conformity with their joint reso-
luton, at IL o'clock. The hour was consid.
cred as pcremptofily binding on the speakers;
but we trustit is the very last time that the
! resolution Tor adsonrnment is to be fixed at a
particular hour-for, what is the effect to- day :!
Two or three Of the most important bills Of
| the last days Of the session were cut off by
the knees. The navy pension bill is thrown
overheard, to the great detrment of many a
poor widow. The post Office route bill, en-
bracing, among other important features, the
provision reviving the privilege Of ranking in
favor of all those post offices the salary of
which does not amount to 500, was overad.
The bill confirming the Cherokee treaty, which
had been twice rejected in the Senate on Sat
urday night, and then passed by majority of
one, was lost for want Of time to act finally
upon it.
The important bill which authorizes the
President to employ S2,OOO,O00 in faciita-
ting the settlement Of peace with Mexico, was
actually lost by Mr.. Senator Davis, of Massa-
chusetts, speaking against time, whilst voices
from the chamber were heard demonstrating
against him for II is determined attempt to
prevent the introduction of resolution 70:
proIonglng the session for few hours. This
measure, which is deemed most important for
negotiating peace betW cen the two countries,
and the fundamental principle of which was
recognised by the vote Of the House Of Repre-
sentatives OH the passage of the bill, and by q
decided vote Of the Senate on their own reso
lations, has been sacrificed by senator's as
ting the time OF the Senate until the monen
of adjournment had arrived.
Whatever mischief may arise from the loss
, of this bill, may be Fairly attributed to thu
f"honorable" senator from Massachusetts.
\. 1t is unfortunate that these measures shoule
have failed during the last hours of the ses
sion; but however much we may regret the
9 loss of the m. we cannot hesitate Ia pio ounce
> that this has been one Of the most rcalarka
Die and brilliant sessions which has ever beer
held within the walls Of the Capitol. Its i'm
portance has compensated for it's duration.
Long and arduous and animated as it has been
we rejoice that it has been continued until al
the great measures of reform which the Pres
ldent recommended in his message, and tn
interests of the country demanded, have bee
: carried through, except the graduation of tn
j; public lands. But this trophy remains 70
the next session to wave around its brow

class and order in society But the strangers
