RIVALS IN WIT.

A speaker who understands himself, will give
his audience occasionally an item OF wit Il
gives the mind a necessary stimulus, and better
attention will be given to what he has to say.
The Irish nation, in their palmy days, before
they knew of slavery aud oppression, were a re-
fnarkably witty people-and it is not extinorisll-
ed yet. They even carried it to the inscription
upon their own tomb. stones. One man thought
he would be more witty than the rest and had

HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION subject is be-
ing brought to the attention OF most OF our State
Legislatures. The AlLauy Journal says: 4Ihe
Homestead Exemption is rapidly working its
way INTO popular favor. II is no longer deemed
either ptrnicious or chimerica Good men of
all parties adopt it as enljnently PRACTICAL and
humane. 1t reaches far beyond and above all
pecuniary considerations. In il is involved, to
no inconsidera bleexent, the stability of the
State, as well as the happiness and mo-
raj well beng OF the individual. While patriot
ism has other and higher springs than property.
an interest in its soil tends to strengthen the
bonds which unite the citizen to the country.
There is sancity in a mere ideal ''hearlh and
home" But the elevating emotions which this
idea excites; are infinitely augmented ly the
reality. Members of both parties cordially ac-
guessed In the appropriate and eloquent recon-
mendatious of Gov. Fish. Their endorsement
by the Senate and Assembly, is alike cleditable
10 them as men and Legislators"

memorials were referred to the Finance
Committee, and the Senate resumed the con-

After the reception from the President Of a

Message, the Senate adjourned.
In the HOUSE, Mr.. Bissell from the Sc
lect Committee on the memorial Of Miss
Dix, reported bill granting ten millions OF
acres Of the Public Lands, for the benefit Of
the several States and Territories. The Or
egon Land bill, creating the Office Of Sur
yeyor General Of the Public Lands In Ore
gon, providing for a survey and making do
nations Of lands to settlers, &C., was amend
ed and passed. The House went into Com
mittee Of the whole on the Civil and Diplo-
matte Appropriation bill, and Mr.. Brown of
Mississippi, made very uncivil attack on
the President, threatening blood and dlssO-
luton and several other very terrible things
in case Texas shall not be permitted to
throttle New Mexico, undisturbod by her
natural Guardian, the United States Mr..
Stephens of Georgia obtained the floor, and
the House adjourned.
Our report of Wednesdays Senate pro-
ceedings was interrupted by some diSar-
rapgement of the telegraph. We now learn
by the Washington papers that no progress
was made in the California bill. The propa-
eandists prevented action by calling the
Yeas and Nays on motions to adjourn, and
TO postpone the bill, till they finally succeed

BELL of Texas on the Boundary Question
has the ring Of true metal. There is hard
" word in it that could be spared: and,
while the language is studiously calm and
moderate, the positions taken cover the eS-
sential ground and are impregnably forti-
fed. We seldom meet State paper of
equal felicity and vigOr. We can imagine
no reply to them cave with the Bowie knife,
and even that is not in point with the bayc-
nets Of regimen. Of regulars confronting
it. 1t don't reach the case.
We shall see whether Mr.. Webster Is
hat Judas that traitor to Freedom,
hat tool of the Slavery Extensionists,'
shich he has been go literally pronounced
trough some months past. We have not
liked his Speeches nor some of his votes on

" disappointed if he do not prove more CT
