3Ast COngress-2d Session.
WAsHINGToN, Jan. III.

WASHINGTON, Jan. III.
AS ] had anticipated, there was a
preliminary brush;in the Senate yes
terday, on the subject of the land
projects. i would but remark how
contrary the Senators dealt with a
subject which might, by possibility,
as heretofore, become anisue at the
next Presidential election, or, at least,
a party issue.
The debate occurred upon bill
TO grant 10000 acres of land to the
State of Wisconsin, to. aid the con
struction of the Troy and Wisconsin
rail road. The work is, no doubt,
an important one, as it connects the
Lakes with the Mississippe. The
discussion was interesting, but incon-
elusive of every point, except the
passage of the bill. II is evident
that some of the politicians are un-
willing to revive the oldissue as to the
distribution Of the proceeds of the pub
lie lands among the States. But, in
some new form the question must
pass,
A proposition has, at last, been
made by the New York members, to
the effect that the State of New York
shall have for rail road and rail road
purposes, a grant of lands, in equal
andjust proportion with that granted
to other States. The Legislatures
of some The other States now in ses-
sion will put in a claim for their share
of the lands. A proposition has been
offered for rendering the bounty
land warrants under the act of the
late session convertible, al the pleas
ure ofthe holder, into United States
Stock, at the rate of 100 dollars for
l60 acres. This would soon add
twenty-five millions to the natioal
debt, and leave the surveyed lands
open to State spoliation.
Mr. Bailey will soon report from
the Committee on Ways and Means,
bill for the prevention Of frauds on
the Revenue. Mr.. Strong will form
aportion of the Committee to report
a bill modifying the Tariff, by raising
the duties on some two orthree arti-
cles, aboliseing duties ON certain ma
terlals used in manufacturing, render
ing some duties specific, and adop-
ting the home valuation,
The House will soon become in
volved in a debate on this subject.
BY combining the Tariff ith thu
land projects, bothmay probably pass
the House.
Mr.. Stevens, of Pa, announced
the other day, in the House, the for
nation of a new party, who were to
give the South all they asked as to
slavery, give the West all the lands,
and give the North and East protec-
tive Tariff, As to Mr.. Stevens him
self, he has held back frcm his avow-
ed purpose of raising the slavery
question, in order to secure the Ta-
riff on Iron.
The House has spent nearly the
whole of the present week in the dis
cussion of the New Hampshire con
tested election case, and has settled
it in favor of the sitting member, Mr..
Morrison. Congress have but sew
en- weeks left, and as yet have not
done any thing of importance.

MeSSrS. rS.-UnaccuStomed as |
am to write articles of a political char
acter, still, when see efforts made to
create division in the. ranks OF the DEM
oeratie party, l cannot refrain from
employing my pen in denunciatlon of
every such attempt. In the recent
struggle of parties in this State | acted
with the Union party. Questions Of "a
new character then arose and every
individual aside from party considera-
tions acted in accordance with his con-
victions OF duty.
Believing as ! did that excitement could
only produce mischief; that by
engendering angry feelings, it might
place in jeopardy the union Of the
States sought, so far as my influence
and exertiens could tend, to such re-
suit to secure the election OF those
men who, in the commencement of the
canvass had been committed to the
support of the compromise measures
The issues then made were temporary
in their character and have passed
away with the occasion that created
them. The people have determined in
favor of acquieScence. The State
Rights Party have yielded to their de-
cSion and TO endeavor to keep up the
organizations of the past summer, is
but an attempt at imposition upon the
public mind. The past is gone; the fu-
ture is before US; upon what principles
shall the government be administered!
Are we not all brethren of common
political faith? Where then is the ne
ceSsity of Il separate organization? The
good Of our common country demands
of us a Union Of effort in the contest
of '52. Let then no divisions exist
among us, but rallying around the prin.
ciples of the party as presented by the
Baltimore convention of 80, no, "A
and '4S, march onward to a glorious
triumph. The whig party in their eff
forts to create diSsenSion in our ranks,
have but one object, to divide and
thereby conquer. For our principle
they have no partiality; our public
men have ever been the subjects of
their untiring abuse Whenever they
have been invested with power; the
profession Of whig principles has al
ways constituted an essential requisite
for the possession Of Office. Do they
profess to have discarded their polsti-
cal faith? let them first "show forth
fruits meet for repentance" If sincere,
why require a separate organization of
the democracy; WHY. present SO ultra Il
whig as Millard Fillmore for the PreSi-
tlency Shame on such arrant hypocri-
sy; let their intrigues meet the rebuke
they merit, and may the effort they
make to create disunion, but serve to
awaken us from our apathy and make
us more than ever one. b.

France has been the scene Of another
revolution. Napoleon has seized the
relns of govern ment, imprisoned the
opposition members ofthe Assembly,
and issued his proclamation of univer-
sal suffrage. BarricadeS were erected
in fhe streets, but were soon broken
down by the soldiers of the President.
Martial law was inflicted upon all en-
gagged in the barricade.
Henry Clay has Ie'igned his scat in
