‘Ii‘ranch.. tienying the power of the Presiderii
to appoint public Minist_ers._ ,
M'r. Mills, of Mass. addressed the Senate
agaiiistthe passage of the resolution, 8:. show-
ed,_ that the power claimed by the President
in relation to the appointinent of Commis-
sioners to the Congress of Panama, had been
‘claimed and exercised by every preceding
President, froln the" commencement of the
Government down to the present time.‘ Mr.
Mills concluded by moving the indefinite
postpoiieiiient ofthe subject. " ‘
Mi‘. Randolph took the floor in reply, and
corrtendeil that the ground taken by the geri-
tleinan from Mass. was a coinplet‘e backing
out on the part of the administration from the
previous stand taken, by its friends. ,
Before taking the question,the Senate adj.
In the House, a letter was received from the
Secretary of War, communicating the iiifor-
Ilinatiori called for relative to the present loca-
tion of the Florida lndians,and their country,
its soil and waters. . '
The House went into Committee ‘on the‘
Panaina Mission. Mr. Buchanan, of Penn."
offered the following ainendinent as a modi-
fication to the aiiieiidiiieiits of tlie gentlemen
from Delaware and Virginia. He ilid this at
the instance of several gentlemen, in order
to present the question in a clear view, and to
show that there was no desire to instruct ei-
ther the President or his Ministers.
V Resolved, That,in the opinion ofthe House
it is expedient to appropriate the funds neces-
sary to enable the President of the U. States
to send Ministers to the Congress of Panama
The House, liowever,in expressing this opin-
ion, do not intend to sanction any departure
froui the settled policy of this Government,
that, in extending our commercial relations-
rivith foreign nations, we should have-.wi_tli
them as little political coiiriexion, as possible,
and that we should preserve peace,c_o'rniiierce,
and friendship with all nations, and form en-
tangling alliances with iroi_ic. It is, therefore,
the opinion of this House, that the Govern-
ment ofthe United States ought not be repre-
sented at the Congress of Panama, except in
ii diplomatic characier,uor ought they to liirin
any alliance offensive or defensive, or nego-
tiate respectiiig such an alliance, with all or
’ any ofthe Spanish Aiiierican Governments;
nor ought they to become parties with them,
or either ofthem,to any joint declaration for
the purpose of preventing the interference of
any ofthe European powers, with their inde-
pendeiiceor form of government; or.io any
compact for the purpose of preveming colo-
nization upon the Continent of America; but
that the people of the United States should
be'left free to act,iti any crisis, in such a man-
ner as their feelings of friendship towards
tlrese Riipiiblics, and as their own honor and
policy may at the time dictate.
The amendment having been read, 5:. time
for reflection asked, the Committee rose and
obtained leave to sit again.
Mr. Little, of Md. then moved to discharge
the committee ofthe Whole. from the further
consideration ofthe report of the Cominiitee
of Foreign Affairs, with a view of taking tip
the appropriation bill, but the motion was re-
sisted by Mr. .li’Lane, and others, on the
ground that if the appropriation were first
made no decision could afterwards be had on
the Resolution. The motion was lost, ayes
31, noes I03. '
Mr. Everett mentioned that no one dotibt
ed that a large majority ofthe House was in
favour of the Mission to Panaina.aiid of an
appropriation for it.
On VVednesday Mr. Randolph talked six
hours in favor ofthe resolution offered by Mr.
Branch relative to the power of the President
to appoint public riiiiiisters.

The Legislature. adjourned on Tuesday,
19th inst. at two o’clock, after a session of
106 days, and having passed about 840 bills
out of7 to 800 entered upon the orders of
both houses.
Mr. Brayton, from the Fifth District, re
signed his seat in the Senate.
Previous to adjournment, a report was
tnade in the Senate on the coniinunieation
from J. J. Astor, relative to his claims of
lands in Putnam and Dutchess, against ac-
- coding to a reference, as proposed by him.——
The report concliides with a resolution that a
committee from the Senate be appointed to
investigate the nature of the claims, ascer-
tain upon what terms they may be settled,aiid
report thereon'to the next legislature. ’
The Senate concurred in the aiuendme_nts
made by the house to the bill in relation to the
canals. [One of the amendments reduces
the salary of the canal commissioners to
1,500 dol|ars.] _
The supply bill was also passed. ‘The At-
torney general’s salary was raised from $800
to $1000, and an allowance made to him of
3600 for clerk’s hire; the deputy comptroller’.-
salary was‘ raised from 315200 to 81500. [.A
proposition was made to raise the salaries of
the circuitjudges from $19.50 to 8l750, and
ofthe chancellor and judges of the Supremi-,
Court, from 4817.000 to 39.500, but the same
was rejected. _
The bills to provide for making the Che-
nango Canal, were not acted upon in the Seri-
ate oftliis State, for want of time. . The cori-
struction ofthe latter would probably divert
much produce to this market, which is now
carried to Baltimore. It is stated in a Lari-
caster Pa. paper, that 150,000 bushels of
wheat which came from the Cheniung, have
already descended the Susquelianna the pres-
ent spring. The Cheinuiig is a tributary
stream ofilie North Branch ofthe Susque
huuna, which opens into one of the finest
wheat districts in the State.

The Elcclion.—The result of the late elec-
tion is finally declared, and from the official
canvas, which is given below, it will be seen
that there is a handsome majority for all the
gentlemen named on ihe Regular Ticket,with
the exception of Mr. Faircliild, who has lost
his election. In this result we are not disap-
pointed, although front the apathy which pre-
vailed iri many sections, there was some rea-
son to fear the rendering ofa different ac-
count. It is much to be regretted that while
so great an excitement is often manifested in
the -election of the meirrbers of the lower
house, there is an almost ‘utter uuconcern as
to the choice ofcandidates for the higher and
more responsible offices_of governiiieiit._ In
some very large towns in the state there were
less than forty voles polled at tlielate elec-
tion for G_overnor, Senators, Ste. ‘ This does
not argue well for the intelligence and fore-
sight oftlic frcemen iiftliis enlightened state.
In every point of view the choice of Senators,
leaving the other officers out of the question,
is much more important than that of Repre-
sentaiives; The former act especially for the
whole state—tliey are expected in a peculiar
manner to guard the general interest;—to pro-
vide for the wants of the whole "collectively.
The latter represent the more local interests
and individualrequirements of their immedi_-,
ate constituents, and have, in comparison
with the Senators, but a small voice in the
decision ofthe most important qU8Sll0l'l5.--
One Senator can do as much in carrying on
anyparticular measure,or in preventing its ac-
cornplishiiient, as 17 members of the lower
lioiise, and seven of the former can thwart the
»-«ishes ofthe whole body of the latter. Un-
der these circumstances it might well be sup-
posed that every freeman would be alive to
the exercise ofliis iiivtrlurrble right of voting
for officers possessed of such powers. But it
is not so. Oftliose who attend the polls, anti
give their suffrages for representatives, scarce
one to six ever think of voting for state ofii-
cers. Some say they have no time ; others
that they don’t know the cantlitlafes ; and
others still that it is of little corisequeiice;
and thus, from these various causes, which
may all be resolved into too great a disregard
for the high and responsible privileges con-
ferred iipoii us by our liberal institutions, a
way is opened for designing, intriguing men
to rise to power, thwart the wishes of the peo-
ple, clog the wheels of governinent, and in
fact to overset our whole system. Is it not
sorprisingthatany coirsideratelreemaiishould
consent to put at hazard on such grounds, his
dear bought rights ' It is impossible. Con-
sideration in this case is out of the question:
-—it is the effect of absolute listlessness-—ol'
utter disregard to our own welfare, and to
that of posterity. It is never imagined that
the present generation is not only responsible
to that which preceded them, but also to itiat
which comes after tlierii, for the continuation
ofthe blessings of a free and peaceful gov-
ernment—for the transmission, uiiiuip-aired,
to their sons, of all the rights which they re-
ceived from their fathers, who purchased
them by their blood. iVere it 0l.llUl‘.\VlS6 we
should not find it so difficult a matter to get
people to the polls—--to induce them once a
year to receive back into their own hands thr-
powcrs they had delegated to their rulers, and
by the exercise of their sovereignty, manifest
their approval of the couduct_ of those who
had been faithful totlieir trust, or their dis-
approbation of such as may have betrayed it.

Mr. Sampson came next and shared the same

Rumours.-—-A letter from \Vashington pub‘
lislied in a Pennsylvania paper, says :
“ I have news of greater moment to tell
you and which will confirm your anticipa-
tioiis in a manner the most pleasing and pat-
riotic. Gen. Jackson wir.r. now stand a can-
didrite for the Presideiicy at the next cleclt'on .'
Ofthis fact you may rest assured ; and I think
its public disclosure important, in order to put
a SlOp to all intrigue and eleclioneering in his
name, as well as to save the sacred glory of
his fame and character from being again in
vaded in the heat of political warfare. I have
the fact from a source to be depended on, and
entitled to the most implicit credit. Neither
the General nor his friends, desire to enter
into the lieiit ofanotlier electioneering carn-
paign. Old age is creeping fast on him in the
shape of a shattered eoiistitution, and he
courts retirement, qiiiei, and tranquility or
mind. The people of Tennessee, under this
change of positioii, are decidedly in favour of
DE Wi'r’r C.[.li\"l‘ON, as the next President ;
and as it istlie general inipression in that state,
that he will be elecled,I think you may count
with certainty on the electoral vote of Ten-
nessee being for Mr. Clinton.”

ton advertises “ Dticlling Pistols” for “ geri-

We hope that no gentleman will neglect the
offer——four chances to one should not be 0-
verlooked——it is better than sills coats.

“The Duel is still the theme of conversa-
tion. Some little circumstances respecting

of the prelimiiiaries to the meeting was that
neither party should, in the interval take the

inarlied——‘Mr.Cla_v, you owe rue a new gown.’
‘I am happy, Sir,’ replied Mr.Clay, ‘I am no
DEEPER in your debt.” Here, as elsewhere,
M r. Clay’s resort has been approved by some.

Hop3.—-Many ofthe farmers ofMiddlesex
county, Mass. have determined to appropriate
all their land this year to the growth of hops.
Several ofthein have already contracted to
deliver large qtiautities oftliein at New York
and Pliiladelphia. The whole number of a-
cres under hop cultivation in England last
year was 56,718.
We observe in one ofthe N. York papers,
a sarcasm upon the late conviction of James
Hunter, the Circus Rider, who was tried at
Hartford and fined sixty dollars. The para-
graph is headed Connecticut Blue Laws ; as
if Connecticut had not at all degenerated fin.
he‘r ancient character for correct discipliiie.
salutary laws, and sound morals. This hap-
peiis to be a mistake, but she still retains some
of her for_iner excellence, and the recent coir-
viction of Hunter isa prnofnftliis position.-
Much has been said and written'iu favour of
public sports and amusements, and much a-
gainst them. We are not disposed to review
or repeat the arguments. One fact is, in our
view, equivalent to the whole. The state of
our society does not call for the introduction
ofCircuses or '_I‘heatres. IfConuecticut stip-
ports" her rank and influence in the Union, it
must be chiefly through the medium of her
places of public instruction, which bring to-
gether the youth from every part of the coun-
try. When parents are u_iidcr the" necessity
of sending their children abroad for education
they are peculiarly solicitoiis to remove tliein
as far as possible from the alltireinents of vice
and scenes ofdissipation and extravagance.
Connecticut has hitherto been, in this respect,
a safe place of resort for the ingenuous yontli
of other States ; and it is the imperative in-
terest as well as duty of'our citizens, to sup-«
port the cliaracter which they have sustained
with great honour to themselves, and the se-
cret ap robation and support of the witliiigs,
who se 43 every opportunity that is offered, to

./Jutomalon Chess Player.—-—The first exhi.
bition ofMr. 'i\laelzel’s Wonder ofthe ivorld
took place last evening, in the spacious hall of
the National Hotel, 'and was witnessed by
from two to three hundred spectators, who
departed equally astonished and delighted.-
The wonderful figure" whose movements, or
rather the cause of whose movements, has.
baffled the inquiries ofthe learned and curi-
oils of Europe for many years, sits by a table
in an erect. attitude,-with great gravity and
coiuposur_e. He is in Turkish costume, with
a long heavy black beard, anti large grey eyes.
The table stands tipon castors, and was re-
peatedly moved about, showing conclusively
“lat there was no connection with any other
apartnient, but that the macliiiie is perfect in
itself. _ Two accomplished chess players play-
ed jointly against him, btit were beaten with
great ease. When he clieck-mated them, he
articulated ‘f cc/zec_” with the proniptness of
anvacconiplished player: when false moves
were made by his antagonists, he rapped up-
on the table with his right hand, and shoolt
his head in displeasure; while with his left be
replaced the chess men as they stood before.
He looks round upon the audience occasion-
ally, but intently upon every riroveiiient in the
life. But wonderful as this part ofthe exhi-
bition is, it is not the whole ofit. ‘There is
the automaton trumpeter, an elegant figure
in the military costume ol the French lan-
eers; wlio' blows the French and German Oi-
dinanee in the greatest perfection, with the
accompaniment ofthe piano forte. We nev-
er saw or heard a living and breathing trum-
peter who could compare with him. Then
we have another_ wonder in the automaton
rope daiicers. Hunter, great as he is, is a
clumsy fellow in comparison with these lime
fellows upon the slack rope ;.and were it not
that with the chess player, thought must in
some way be made to counteract thought, we
should put the rope dancers down as the
greatest wonders. They execute the most
siirprising feats with the greatest agility, and
without airy apparent meclianism.~Spectulor.
Rail Roatl.—-It affords us great pleastire to
announce that the hill to incorporate the Mo-
hawk and Hudsoti Rail Road Company, has
passed the third reading in the Senate, and
only awaits the signature of the Governor to
become a law. Frniii the known character
ed in this project, there is no necessity to as
stire the public that it will be proscctited with
vigor, and be speedily carried into effect.-
The Rail Road is to extend from Albany to
Schenectady ;and from the immense pressure-
of business on the canal between these two
points, there cannot be a doubt but that it will
he of great public utility, and produce a prof-
itable income to the Stockliolders. In addi-
tion to all other consideraiioiis, it is a source
of ho little pride to us, that in New York the
first attempt is to be made to forward internal
iinproveiiie-rit by this means as well as by Ca-
nals.-—-fllbany .‘ltz'v.

About one hundred thousand dollars more

irotoriousthat one ofthese debtors has a claim
on the Bank of over four hundred thousand
dollars for er.-dorsemeiits ; a sum far beyond
his own proper indebtedness; and he has,
therefore, been advised by able counsel, [0 at-

debtor stotitly denies that any balance is due
