Congress-.

The Senate was engaged for the most part on
Monday last, in discussing the Presidents veto
sage of the appropriation for the ST Clair Flats,
Michigan. Mr. Chandler, of that State asSaied the
President in severe terms. Mr. Davis, of MissiSsip-

debate continued by MesSrs. Bingham, IIamin,
Clay, Crittcndcn, ToombS and Wigfa
The Postoflice appropriation BILL Immediately
its reception from the House. was read twice and
ferred.
In the House, the day. the Postofice
appropriation bill was introduced by two-thirds
vote, and passed. The bill appropriates 81.
400, 900 for contractors and Others and allows the
contractors six per cent interest their claims for
service from the time they were due.
The House elected black Republicans as Postmas-
ter and DOorkeeper of the body.
Nearly the whole time of the Senate on Tuesday
was occupied in discussing the ranking privilege
an amendment to the House PoStofIcc appropria-
ton BILL No action taken. Tie bill made
the special order for tomorrow. In the meantime
and incident to expected delay in the passage of the
bill, memorial was being numerously signed by
the contractors, pressing the immediate passage of
the bill as it came from the House. If this is i'm
possible they ask that the interest clause and all
other Objectionable features be stricken out and left
for future legislation, their pressing necessities
require immediate action.
The House was not in session on Tuesday, having
adjourned to give the Speaker an opportunity to
range the Committees. They were expected to be
announced on Thursday Sherman, it was thought,
would be chairman of the Ways and Means and
Corwin of foreign relations. OF course the Com
mittees will be arranged with view of Exposing
the corruptions of this pro-slavery administration"
The President is to be abused at the North as an in
strument in the hands OF the democratic slave
drivers" while he is abused at the South for cxtrav
agant expenditures forced upon the government by
black Republican votes in the House Of Representa-
tves. So we go. Partizans in both sections assail
and malign the honest old man, while the people,
who are diSinterested save in having good govern
ment judge justly of his conduct and sustain him.

John G.. SAKE, Esq.

We learn with much pleasure that John G. Sake,
Esq, the distinguished poet, wit, and lecturer of
Vermont is expected to lecture for the Young Mems
Christian Association of this City, the evenings
of the 9th and 10th of next month His Subc for
the first lecture will be, "Lore: humorous and
descriptive poem" For his second lecture Poetry
and POets,"-a prose lecture, with reading from his
own poems.
We copy from the Boston Post the following no
tice of vile SANDER recently started against Mr..
SAKE by Brownlow, of the Knoxville Wing:
"ParSon Browlow," of the Knoxville (Tenn)
Whig lately published statement charging John
G. SAKE, of Vermont, with publishing vilainouS
account of the cruel treatment of slaves in South
Carolina" We do not need Mr.. SaXe's authority
Though we have it) for saying the report is ridcu
lousy false The editor who recklesSly, or even
blunderingly, makes such charge against man,
well and widely known thoroughly conserva-
tive and patriotic gentleman, is unfit to have the
control Of newspaper"
John G.. SAKE is one Of the most conservative and
patriotic men in this country. He is Northern
man whom every Southerner should be glad to take
by the hand.
This charge by Brownlow against Mr.. s., was re-

Such an institution we have in our Common School

Now, if "Anti-Advaorem" will apply the test of

tners OF Democracy" he will find that there is moth
ing IN the Constitution of North Carolina which

upon slave property.
If therefore, the legislature of State being
tne immediate representative of the people, can do
what they are not prohibited to do" and the Con-
stutlon OF North-C Carolina does not prohibit the leg
stature from laying an al ral0rem tax upon
slaves, the conclusion is irresistible that the leg

BLACK REPUBLICAN REJoICINGs-Mr. Speaker
Pennington was Serenaded by his friends in Wash
ngtOn OF the evening of his election, and speeches
were made BY himself, Sherman, Hickman, and 9TH
eTS. Hickman, who covered in the House few
days previously, under the lash applied to him by
AcCleFnand and Pryor, spoke on this occasion in
the bterest and most insulting strain. He threat
ened the South again with eighteen millions of
Northern men, and declared that the Union should
be maintained BY force and in blood. Barking dogs
hardly ever bite. John Hickman is an infamous
coward and traitor.
John W. FOrney, the black Republican Clerk, was
also serenaded and made speech marked by inso-
lence, egOtism and mendacity He entertained his
maudln and rowdy hearers with the vilest abuse of
our venerable President, Mr. Buchanan. The crowd
eheered him. This is one of the most striking evil
dnces Of the decline of the Republic If Clerk of
Inc House had abused Washington, or Adams, or
Jefferson as FOrney abused Buchanan, he would at
once have been expelled from his place
