The resolution was discussed at length, and
disposed of by the power of the Previous Ques-

that he, as one ofthe claimants. should receive
nothing in pay but as a member ofthe 25th Con-

In the HOUSE. this was private bill day.
V”): little progress, however was made, except
that the fate of an important bill was decided.
The bill for the rclitrfofilte heirs of Robert Ful-
ton was taken tip. It authorizes the Secretary
of the Treasury to pay said l't(_‘ll’S, out of any
money in the Trcastiry, not otherwise appro-
priated, the son: of one hundred thousand dol-
lars. This sum is to be in full cotripensation for
,,,,-,.;c.._; reut,lel'.‘.tl, and for the loss of asham-
lioat at New Orleans, takenposscssiori of by the
government during ilie late war. .
It was debates] at great lengtlr. Its principal
opponents were Mr. Russell. ol New 1 urk, and
Mr." McKay of North Carolina. ‘Its ardent sup-
porters were Mr. Holftiian, Mr. Ia. \Vllllll8'Se)’,
M,-_ Legnre. and Mr. Biddle. Mr. Hellman

Mr. Russell moved to strike out "one lion-

ing a less sum. This question was tarken by
year; and nays and lost. ' I noticed, that on call-
ing the name of Mr. Cumbrclettg. he did not
answer. He bolted. He was in the House.

aincndmcut was cut off. as _
Mr, Wise moved the previous question, which
was carried. The main qtiestion was——shall
the bill be engrossed for a third reading"? The
yeas and nays were ordered. Mr. Canibrelepg
again bolted ; but the bill was ordered. to a third
reading by a decided majority. The qnesitoii
then was—when shall it be read a third time ?

only important as they subserve these ends.
The interests ofsucli a government and those of
the people are one and inscparable—one cur-
rency for the people and another for the govern-
ment and itsolliccrs should be absurd as well as
ruinotis. I regard it as clearly within the power,
as it is clearly the duty of the gei1cralgovern-
ment, to take care ofthe national currency; and
to adopt those measures which shall speedilyand
surely restore to us a sound and healthy circula-
tion ; which shall he doubly welcome and
valued froin the snllerings we have experienced
since its destruction.
The recent demonstrations ofthe popular will
clearly point to this duty on the part of national
rulers, as one demanding prompt and efficient
[1 action; and we have a right to expect, that those
lwlio profess obedience to the popular will, as a
cardinal principle of action, will follow without
hesitation the course deriiarided by the voice of

Jlfore I'rauris on the In(Zians.—\Ve learn
from the Lincoln Transcript, that the commis-

Cherokees. have been guilty of the most bare-
faced fraud upon these ignorant people. It ap-
pears that the commissioners were furnished by
the Department with Specie and Trezsnry
Drafts, with which to settle these claims; but
in contravention of their instructions, they
brought up a large atiiount of bank notes of
different states, at a heavy discount, and tender-
ed them to the Indians in payment of their
claims. The Indians refused them. They
were then told that the Government had made
no other provision, but that ifthey would make
a deduction of15 per cent. they would give them
the specie; which. rather than take the depre-
ctitxted paper, they did. 'I‘liese comissioners also
tendered a gentleman of the bar in the western
part ofthe state, who had a claim against the
Government, some of these depreciated notes,
which he refused ; he was then offered the specie,
with the 15 per cent. deduction ; this he also re-
fosed—threatened to write to the Department.
and have their conduct examined ; he was then
offered his choice of Treasury Drafts or Specie.

labor to buy over the conservatives, must: be
soul-sickening wherever known, to every man
not tainted with Loco-Foco principles. In ti

individual who has succeeded in kecp'-ng a sure
ofiice for some years by ttvaddling f'roin the

out a conservative, and actually wrote the no-
tiee calling a conservatic meeting for the rip-
poiutmcnt of delegates to the Hartford Conser-

office-liolder’s paper in this city, where its pub-
our Deputy Sheriffs, together with a long-leg-
ged justice ofthe peace, who stitches collars,
were dispatched, by the ofiicial jnnto in this
city, to heal the divisions by promising rewards
and threatning punishment. The missionari.-s
arrived and threatened to displace the Post
Master, who was a conservative. and promised
his office to the other conservative who got up
the meeting, if he would wheel about. The Post.
Master defied the Loco-Focos, but the bait took
well with his colleague who called the meeting,
and consequently, at the meeting, he announced
himself a flaming Loco Foco, while he denounc-

It is computed tli-it an extra sum of $500, ex.
