In the Senate, Mr. I-Inbbartl, of New-Hornp-

ment. of the rules, which by the rule has over
one day. Mr. Hubbard also. moved that the Sc-
nate should proceed totnorrow to the election of
the standing committees._ .
Mr. Clay opposed the motion. He said that
Congress was assembled for specificobjects, and
he hoped the consideration of those objects
would be taken tip at once, and the necessary
legislation proceeded with, and then that the
members might be allowed to go lt_ome. ’J_,‘lie
message gave no infnrimttioti respecting the
general foreign and domestic relations of the
country——not.hing' c_onccrning thenorth eastern 1

of Mexico. He did not; suppose any lllit)l‘t1'llt‘-
tion would be communicated, except in l‘(.'gtti‘(l,
to the special objects for wlilch the represents.-if
Lives of the nation were called.
Mr~.'Hubbard insisted upon the propriety of;
appointing the committees. He said the people A
would be coming here with their petitions, and
they had a right} to be heard. The motion pre-
vailed, and then, on_ motion of Mr. Walker, the
Senate adjourned. - -'

shot down, when after some dedutc, Mr. Ro-
be-rtson moved to postpone the further consider-
ation of the rcsolutioti until the next day, giv-
ing notice of his intention to submit a resulti-
tion whi‘clt' should have the effect: of putting an
end to this continual struggle. Mr. R. read to

sary to divide, is the federal policy; but to them
it was “sour grapes;” and they may now consid-
er their paper, "the Globe,” as falling, falling
