 The session closed on "Wednesday night, the 23d inst. about 2 o'clock, after despatch ing, the week previous, more business than was done during the balance of the session, Although there were some sharp passages and rough tiliiug, occasionally, between mem- bers, ali parted in harmony, and, altogether, we believe there never was q legislative body convened, more determined to serve, 10 the best of their ability, their constituents and the State.

 The message of the President you ~IlI probably receive with this note, and afterrcad- ing it, have no doubt, you will .hink oft, as do, that i. is an excellent S.aie paper; and particularly, upon ihe subject of our Mexi- can difficulties His narrative of those difli- caisiess sustained as it Is, ai every step. by incon;esiabIy corree. official documents, will, l think, satisfy all unbiased minds, that the cause oF the War with Mexico was most ample on the part of the United States. Tie manner in which i, has been con- ducted-the battles which have been tough, --the triamphs our arms have gained number of cities we have taken, and the extent of the enemy's country we have con qsered and now hold, and all in the short space of G or s months, ought, 1 think, To satisfy the most unreasonable that, on tha. point, there is no just ground of complaint against the administration. Yet, fear we shall find, tha, the days of croking and lauli-fnding have not passed. We shall see. 1 The residue of the message, will, have no doabt, be equality as acceptable to the grea, mass of our population. Blu, have neither the time, nor disposition 10 analyze a document. which you have more time an.! ability to dissect l;ian l have.

 While feel gTatihed and tlal!ered, when I reflect that in deciding the various, and many of them most intricate, questions which have grown ou, of the debates and political con- tests on this floor, no decision that have made has been appealed from, am not yaln enough to attribute your acquieseence 10 any other caRse than your generous indulgence. To err Is human io claim not 10 have erred, would be asrogat;ng to myself di- vine attribute. But do claim that, however much and however grossly may have erred, all of my decisions have been in strict ac- cortiance with the honest promp,ings of my conscience If, under the influence of au ex- citement incident to the dcbatcs iu which 1 have sometimes mingled, and in which ] have always fell lively interest, to which am ready to acknowledge myself too prone, have wounded the feelings, or done wrong or injustice to any member on this hoor, from my heart am sorry for it. and hope he will accept th;s assurance ol my profound regret for having done so
 In coaelusicu. gentlemen, trust that, astor session, during which have been discussed and decided questions ot great Importspce, about which there has been radical, bat l believe honest, difference of opinion amongst us, and upon which moEe exei.emeni has been manifested than might have been hoped for, that each one of you returns 10 his home wiihou, one drop of bitterness, or il-will, in his heart owaysis his fellow~meinber, and that kiad feelings and good fellow ship will be ,he prevailing sentiments when we part, For myself, assure each and every one of yoa that he carries with hisa, wher- ever hs may go, my siacerest prayers and wishes for his welfare, happiness, and pros perily through life"
