The senate this week passed ;

The senate this week passed a
resolution submitting to the legisla-
lures OF the various states an
amendment to the constitution OF
the United States, changing the
date of the beginning of the terms
OF president, vice-president and
members of congress from the 4th
OF March to the 4th OF May. One
reason was the bad weather IN
March. The most important rea-
son for the adoption of the amend
ment was that the time between
the date congress convened IN De-
cember and the +th OF March, when
congress expired by limitation every
two years, was too short tor the
proper consideration Of the thirteen
great appropriation bills and other
matters of importance which must
necessarily be considered during
the short session OF congress.

 ents at Wolverhampton unveiled a
 marble statue of MT. Nilllers' when speeches in eulogy of his public service in connection with the anti-corn law
 movement were delivered by Ear Granville and Sir Robert Peel.
