"The Presidents message, at the opening ofthe
present session Of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion of all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
'istration Of the Government, in regard to what
are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-
sures Of last session. That opinion is, that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
final settlement Of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
we're not free from imperfections, yet, in their
mutual dependence and connection, they formed
"a system Of compromise the most conciliatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
opinions, and that therefore they should be ad.
hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstratc the necessity of further Legislation to
guard against evasion abuse. That opinion, 90
9 far as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
'will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace ofthe country requires this; the security OF
sthe Constitution requires this; and every consde-
{ nation of the public good demands this. If the
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message, it does not expect to stand at ALL"

in their respective States. Such was the case in
putting down the whisky insurrection in Pennsyl-
vana. The militia Of that State alone were suffi-
clent. If Massachusetts refused to obey the laws
OF the United States and to enforce them, there
was but one thing more for her to do, and that was,
to declare the Constitution of the United States no
longer obligatory. He then alluded to the case of
Gov. Quitman, who, in obedience to the laws, had
resigned his post of Governor of a State and sur
rendered himself to the authorities. upon charge
of which it was well known he could not be guilty.
Gov. Quitman had offered TO give pledge that,
upon the expiration Of his term of service, he would
present himself for trial. This pledge was refused
Justice in that case was hungry for its victim. If
this NIB were an exposition Of the principles of
Massachusetts, he would rather let her go on than
to vote to enforce her obedience by means of the
army and navy Of the United States
Mr.. Foote read from the State papers to show
that, in the of the insurrection in Pennsylva
mia, Washington had issued his requisition, for
militia upon the States Of Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey, Maryland, and Virginia The militia called
out were not alone from the State where ths insur-
rection took place.
Mr.. Davis, of Massachusetts, meant, when he
said that there was sentiment prevalent In Mas
sachusetts against the law, that the law was
opposed by the people but he did not mean that
therefore the law would not be enforced. He ven
tured to say that all the specuatons, that the army
and navy would be necessary to enforce the laws of
the United States were wholly unfounded. He
laws would be executed without calling in any
such aid He was opposed to the law; it
opposed by many as an offensive measure, but
beneath all this there existed that public opinion
which did not consider mobs as the proper remedy,
or the proper means to effect change of the law.
The days of the revolution and of Shays rebellion
were gone by, and the people have learned there is
an easier mode of obtaining redress of grievan-
ces that the ballo tbox is the most efiicacious
mode. They have desire to place themselves in
opposition to the United States authority. While
he had opposed the law, still he would be willing
to vote ior proper one. The people of the free
States consider that it is an imputaton them to
deny In these mode of trial which
allowed in every other AT proper time he
thought he could satisfy the Senate that this was
not the proper kind of law.
Mr.. Cooper said that the militia called out to
suppress the insurrection in Pennsylvania were
from New Jersey, Maryland, and Virginia. Their
rendezvous was at Carlisle, and he believed they
marched to Uniontown
Mr.. Brad6ury said that he believed this law, as
well as any other law of the United States, could
be executed in Maine.
The question was then taken, and the resolution
was adopted unanimously.

letter of January 7, from Monrovia, Liberia,
to the Cd6lmercial Advertiser, says: "The prin-

An American merchant vessel, name not stated,

this report of the passage of wit, which ended in
an exchange of shots The River and Harbor Bill
was under debate-Mr. Stanly had spoken in its
favor, Mr.. Inge against it.
Mr.. Inge, in referring to Mr. Stanly, asked.

injustice in the American Congress- If we of the
south wait to receive warning from him. we would
sleep until the assault has been commenced and the
,spoliation of the South consuinmated | am not
astonlshed to hear the statement of the gentle
mantrom North Carolina. 1t is not from him ex-

is sectional injustice. ask him to Justify to me
why the Hudson River is to have 5000, above
and below Albany, without limitation. How can
1t be justified, unless that it is in Northern State
and stands in relation necessary to adopt it, Its
part of the Infamous system of log rolling, which
is indispensable in bill of this character. How
would he justify an appropriation for the Illinois
River but on the same principle

not believe the gentleman from Alabama wants the
appropriation which he asks for but he has offered
the amendment under the rule that he may make

displeasure.
Mr. Inge. merely stated facts and drew in
ferences.
Mr.. Stanly. The gentleman said the "spoa-
ton Of the South " would take place before he
would hear warning from me. The gentleman
shows he has little sense and less charity when he
charges me with being unfriendly to the South

done to provoke the gentleman.
Mr.. Ings. What did the gentleman say? Will
he repeat the remark
Mr.. Stanly. | say you have little sense and
less charity in charging me with unfriendlness to
the South.
Mr.. Lgs. | say the remark is ungentlemanly
and unjust and comes from backguard
Mr.. Stanly. Mr.. Chairman, he charges me
with being blackguard. He has just slown to
the House and the country that he is one.

Mr.. Stanty. No; personalities are not in order.

mine. As to my friendship for the South, let the
record and my conduct speak, whether | have
not more friendship for the South than these noisy
traitors who impeach others, and seek the applause
of the grogshops at crossroads at home, by their
