lie has acted upon twenty claims presented
to him; awarding for the claimants in FIVE ca
SEES, rejecting seven, awaiting further evidence
in nine cases. There are nineteen other
claims which have not yet been presented to him.
The time of the Commission having nearly ex.
pired, and only half the indemnity allowed by
Brazil having as yet been distributed, he asks
an extension OF time to complete the examna-
ton and settlement of the claims.
The Secretary of State accordingly suggests
to Congress the pvoprety of extending the time
OF the Commission to nine months from the lst
OF March next. The message and correspon-
dence were referred to the committee on Fo-
reign Relations.

LANDS 20. RAILROADS..

There Is a bill pending before the lower
House Of Congress, which proposes to grant 10
{ he State of Missouri large sections of the pub
lie domain. the proceeds of the sale Of
w hich are to be applied To the com
structiou of railroads therein. The system
Impartial legislation which this bin proposes to
continue, ought to be abolished. The public
lands are assets in tho hands of Congress, TO
be disposed Of upon thc principle upon which
the public treasury, aecruing from taxation, is
applied, Where is the difference except in
the form oftle property Would it be equita-
BILE TO make a free gift of half million to the
State Of Missouri This is either an odious
aud partial mode of wasting the public proper

any warrant, or it is partial and covert sys-
TEN ofluternal Improvement by Congress The
serupulous Democratic conscienee-a flower
delicate and tender--eannot in an avowed man
ner allow an appropriation of money to advance
his object. Such an act is beyond the bauads
Of constitutional power. But to mako dona-
ton ofequivaent value in land, 10 be opplied
according to hlc terms Of The gia, to secure an
unconstitutional object, lisa different matter--a
aorse Of quite different colour. Here is polit-
zeal morality with vengeance. But the argu-
ment by which this act ofpublic robbery is de-
tended, is OF piece with the act itself,-the
object is plumber and Its defence a sophism.-
They say, these gentlemen who rejoice in con-
stitatioaai objections, that the object of the do
aation is to magnify the value of the eotermi-
nous public lands. This is generally ma
Aed pretext. But where tits not, it is a mere
argument of policy, and cannot have the effect
aflegitimating an unconstitutional act. BY this
argument the great charter can be made to
contract or expand with the exigencies ofthe mo-
ment-in the hands of Western congressman
1t is made in too striking particular to re-
sembe their own consciences. These men are
nothing more and nothing less than public rob
oers. Apply this touchstoue to their system:
VIII Congress agree to give to the State of
Virginia the proceeds aeeruine from the sale Of
an area ofthe public domain lying in any one
If the new Statesl No. Why notl 1t is the
very thing often done before where the lands
lie within the State, the beneficiary of the
gift. How can that only point of difference at
1ect the question of legality Why is not Vir-
ginia we'll entitled to slice of tho public do
main as Missouri There can be no sort of
doubt that it is clandestine mode OF lending
federal aid to works of Internal Improvement.
Now we are advocates of the application of
part of the Congressional revenues to such OBJ
leets--if the unjust and partial mode now acted
upon is SO far modified as to become of general
duplication, we agree. We care not out of
what fund Congress shall vote appropriations %

We called attention few days ago to a large
and valuable body of emigrants about to leave
France on account of the insecure tenure of
their properly and the shack'es imposed upon
their industrial exertions. From the last Eu-
lropean papers we discover that the spirit of ex-
lpatriation has become more widely diffused
among the trembling subjects of the French
usurper. The reader will perceive from the
subioined paragraph that despotism begins in
Austria to overcome the natural ties of country,
and that many of It's God forsaken people are
about to resort to repatriation as the only refuge
from their tyrants

EFFECT IN PARIS OF Mr. WEEsTER's Kos
suTH BANQUET SPEECH. - Mr.. Websters
speech at the kossuth banquet in Washington,
has provoked sharp animadversion in several Of,
the Paris journals. Tho journal DIES Debats
deems the purport of the speech and toast tex
traordlnaiy, strange, repugnant to law and his
tory" The Assemble Rationale SAYS:
"The most serious attention is due from the
great European powers to what has passed ut
Washington. The Government of the United
States impelled by the Democratic passions
that rule over it, has abandoned the policy of
George Washington. 1t no longer restricts it
self to the interests Of trade and navigation, but
dreams of exercising an influence over Europe
an politics. Any measure taken against the en-
voy OF Austria at the American capital, must be
considered not us the quarrel of Austria alone,
but as the common quarrel and concern of the
Old World, resisting the absurd pretensions of
the American Republic"
