Before the result was announced, Mr.. Eustis,
OF Louisiana, rose to personal explanation,
stating the position of the American party in
that State. He said that they repudiated the
eighth section of the Philadelphia platform,
considering it odious to prosecute any man on
account of his religion, which was q question
between the individual and his God; and, rath-
er than do so, he would suffer his right hand to
wither; nor would he be connected with any
party having in view such direct purpose.
Mr.. Smith, of Alabama, differed from the
gentleman, and denounced Roman Catholicism,
because, spiritually, temporarily and politically,
the adherents to that faith owe their allegiance
to the Pope, above the Constitution He ap-
pealed to gentlemen to say whether, from the
beginning, Roman Catholic priests, in their
assemblies, have not always thrown their infu-
ence against liberty, and on the side of power.
The American party do not urge religious
prescription.
Mr.. Taylor, of Louisiana, referred to the
records of history, to show that during the
joined the people against the mobiles, and gave
motion and power to the popular element
which achieved freedom in France.
Mr.. Walker, of Alabama, differed from the
views expressed by his colleague, Mr.. w. r.
Smith. If he thought that prescription for
religions sake was feature of the American
party, he would cut himself loose from such an
organization.
An Intellectual motion was made, that the
House adjourn till Wednesday next-yeas lOl,
nays lO7.
Alter some further debate, another motion
was made to adjourn over till Wednesday,
which was successful.
The House then adjourned.

weeks since, in relation to the power Of the
senate to originate appropriation bills; and,
no objection having been made, the following
resolution was read
ReSotced, That the Committee on Finance
be directed to inquire into the expediency of
reporting the appropriation bills for the sup
port OF the Government, or adopting other
measures with a view of obtaining more speedy
action on said bills.
Mr.. b. gave it as his opinion that it might
prove salutary to give salaries to members,
sidered the subject, he admitted that he enter
tanned doubts as to the power of the Senate to
originate appropriation bills, but subsequent
study and reflection had convinced him that the
Senate had the right to do so, and that it would
be expedient for the body to exercise that right
MT. Clay saw nothing in the Constitution to
prevent the Senate from originating appropria-
ton bills, and thought the labor might be
prohtably divided between the two bodies-as
that while the House was engaged on the civil
and diplomatic BILL the Senate might take ND
the army and navy appropriations, and thus
the required time for proper discussion of the
subjects be secured.
Mr.. Hunter understood the resolution as one
of inquiry, which the Committee on Finance
might report upon, observing, at the same
ihiCJ tutG ulu not uOuDC Jne power OIL the
Senate to originate appropriation bills.
Mr.. Seward avowed his willingness to vote
for the resolution as a matter of inquiry for the
Committee on Finance, but would not commit
himself as to the power of the Senate to origi-
nate appropriation bills. 1t was true that such
bills might not be strictly considered as reve-
nue. bills, but they appropriated the revenue !;
and he gave it as his opinion that the matter
could be more safely reposed in the other
branch, where responsibility was more direct
than in the Senate.
The discussion was further continued by
Messrs. Hamlin, Bayard, and Clayton when the
resolution was agreed to-
On motion, the Senate adjourned to Thurs
day.
