Bayly acted Us Secretary Of the Foote meeting
and has, besides some ..pioas responses" given
quite n humorous description Of the dilemma IN
which he found himself on arriving IN Washing

from the delegation going to show, definitely the
sympathies of great State There was
time when Virginia members took the lead IN All
such controversies as those which now divide the
party. There time when her people couio

Why are they silent Have her people, or her
representatives, fallen fro the thigh estate "t

the gentleman entrusted with the NANTES OF our
Jeffersons MadsonS, and Tayloes, and very par
ticularly, from Mr.. Charles James Faulkner, wh'
was so apprehensiye that Gen. Scott would give
laid and comfort to the enemies of the South
and on this himsy pretext went over to the Loco
foco party.
Ii seems that the small note bill is likely to
pass in the Virginia Legisls ture. If II docs, we
shall soon see whether people will, like their
Northern friends, disregard any law which does
not meet their mott, MS" Being friends and
supporters of law and order, however injurious, it
is shame that the Legislature should have OPP
pressed them so much, in putting ON them cir
culation of irresponsible paper money. by refu-
sing to allow the Banks in which the State is in
crested to issue small notes.
The grave and reverend seignors of the Senate
often exhibit spirit Of waggery, and fun, as well
as the lower House. In the last pas age between
Messrs. Clayton and Cas-, on the 'Galinipper"
question: when Cass affected to think that Clay
ton, in speaking of Gliding. had made an allusion
to his having once been a school MASTER in Clay
tons town--the latter remarked that he made no
such alusion-that he had much respect for
schoolmasters; but when schoo! masters under
took the cause of foreign country against their
own, the very boys of his town would administer
