SATURDAY, 7th, A. M.—Having' anxiously
ex'pr~cted the President’s Message oti the arrival
of each southern mail. since Tuesday. our.col-
umns havebeeri kept ripen for the purpose of
giving it a place. All other matter has been
comparatively neglected, in the expectation that
our present number would be almost exclusive-
15- filled with that docurnertt. But there is con-
siderable uncertainty about human events. and
' we find ourselfou this last day ofthe week. not
only without the expected docom‘ent. but willi-
out mucli ofany thing to supply its place. In
this dilemma, we have hastily thrown togeiher
such matter as will give our readers a view of
the proceedings of the body that occupy the
capitol at Washington. and such ollierinforrria-
tinu as in our hurry we found most corivruieut.
These circumstances, we trust, are in them-
selves a sufficient apology for what othcruise
might knit the brows of sortie ofoursnbscribers.
How long we are to remain in this state of sus-
.pense—lonking for the organization and regular
proceedings of Coiigrcss. it is impossible to say;
but in the proceedings of Thursday, whirh we
give in the preceding page. there arc. sortie glim-
nierings of hope that the House will at length
get itselfinlo something like order. \Ve shrill
‘await the arrival of yesterday's-transactions
‘ with much interest.
If otir hopes are not all
doomed to blight. we shall give the Message In
our next number.
Mn. DALLAS, late minister to Russia, is. it

PB!-NT!-JR. T0 Coxeruzss.-—\Ve gather from
a correspondent of the Evening Post, that the
friends of the administration have a new appli-
cant for the office of printer. Messrs. Myers
6: Smith have announced themselves as Candi l-
ates for the ollice, and have addressed a circular
to the members. putting their claims upon the
principle of rotation in otlice, and proving by
figures that the three last Congressional prin-
ters had-received such sums of the public mo-
' may as might be well deemed sufficiertt for every
purpose of party and personal reward. Some
feel disposed to admit this as an equitable pro-
position. alledging that they could see no pro-
priety in awarding the prodigious profits arising
I from the printing of both branches ofthe Legis'-
T lature for political services, however efiirzient,
when other organs ofthe party in \Vasliington,
which rendered as signal service to the cause,
- could barely sustain themselves. The new can-
didates are the proprietors ofa_ tri.-weekly, call-
ed the Metropolis. __ ‘
DEATII WARRAN1‘ or JESUS Crinis1'.—’I‘he
article we published two weeks since front the
Pliilad. Gazette under the above title, is pro
uouiiced by the N. Y.Evening Star. to be willi-
out genuineness. As Noah's attainments in
Jewish History entitle him to some credit in
matters of this kind, and his argument. uct being
without force, we are willing to admit his con-
clusiou.
“Do rou coztrizss so niucitl"--Tl.-e New
York Evening Post. in allusion to its own party.
holds the following language--
“ We believe there are rucn nominally
adhering to the Democratic party, who have
little 01' no :tttac.h.me_r__it to democratic princi-
les. These are the men that liave clungto
us because, heretofore, we have been the
dqmipam party, having the power to dis-
pense legislative favors, or.\vbat have been
significartly called ‘the spoils of victory.’-
The tenure by which they have been held
has been the hope of sharing in a distribu-
tion ofthe rewards of successful effort. So
l'o7t.g' as they could’ rear:/r tlle chief ofliccs of
1/13 State. so long‘ as they could secure from
it monopolies wnrl special acts, so long and
no longer were they ztrillirzg to lend their
.supp.o.rt to. the Democratic cause. Leta day
-of temptation and trial come, and they will
fall off from their allegiance as the leaves o-f
autumn nipped by an early frost.”
An honest confession. &c.
NEW-HAVEN Raoisrna.-By an article in
the last number of the Register, we perceive
that that paper has lost none of its consistent
and unswerving attachment to misrepresenta-
tion ancl falsehood. The man whose hear‘. is
so calous to every noble impulse. as deliberate-
ly and wilfully to misquoteand garble the senti-
ments of another. must be too far gone in de-
ipravity to be expected to blush at his own bas-
tardy. He is therefore a fitter subject of scorn
and contempt. than of pity or cotnmissraIion..
A large quantity of the rock composing the

Extmortixo EXPEDITION.--Ftom the exrac.
of a letter from one of the officers of the expe-
dition, which follows. it will be seen that there is
farther reason to fear that the whole affair will
turn out, as has been expected, unfavnrably.—
At the latest accounts, the expedition was at
Valparaiso. From the dissention among the
officers. sickness among tlis crews. and it variety
of accidents to the vessels. there is too much
reason to expect that but little good will result
to the cotiutry from this source. The extent of
the voyage has been in the neighborhood of Ter-
ra del Fuego. The New Yorker says. if the
r:onirna.ntl had been entrusted to older and more
experienced hands, we have no doubt that the
proriiises of future success would have been
more ample. The following is the extract re-
fered to above: '
“Viilltes, I tliiiik, is getting delirious. He is
constantly arresting and susperidi-rig his officers
forthe most frivolous misdemeanors—lias sent
several borne under charges. and a number
more will‘ be sent borne as soon as we arrive at
Callao. The First Lieutenant of the Peacock.
was sent home under charges from this port. be-
fore our arrival. The crews of .the different
vessels are desertitig at every opportunity, and
I do candidly believe tlia.t the whole expedition
is a complete bumbtig. In the end it will dis-
grace the Navy, flag and country; and could it
be recalled by government, it would save us
from _a great disgrace which will be heaped upon
us at the expiration of the cruise. Could I be
detached from it with honor to myself. I would
do so. to-niorraow, but. as a voltirneer in. such a
glorious cause, I feel bound- to see it through,
good or bad as comes."‘

Four HILL, Nov. 22, 1839'.
Dear Sir: I have received the Enquirer

Iconclude that I am indebted to you for it,
as, in the conclusion‘ of your comments, you
say that you will enclose the ntimber cou-
tiiining it to me, and ask ofrne some notice
ofthe subject. I
You were right in pronouncingthe rumor‘
unfounded. It has notthe shadow offoutida-
lion; and yet, if I may judge from the papers,
that and similar rumors have, for some time,
been widely circulating in the N0-rt-hcrn
portion of the Union ;' but for what purpose.
or by whom put in circulation, lam at a loss
to conjecture. So far from favoring, I believe
of all calamities that-could befall the country,
:1 re_n_e\val of the Protective system, with its
certain. consequences, would be among the
greatest; and it is» i'cally.s-urprisirig, that
with the light of past experience. any one or
sound judgement and. attached to the country,
should think of makingtbe attempt. 1 frilly
agree with you that the South-, and Itrust,
the great body ofthe sotind and patriotic of
all parties elsewhere, cannot be grilled by
the fallaclotts arguments pitt forth in its favor.
The growing intelligence of the age is op-
posed to all such schemes; and all attempts
at the renewal of the Protective system must
fail; or, if successful, be followed by a re-
vulsion th.it would speedily prostrate the
system, with infinitely greater loss than gain
to the manufacturers themselves.
I have not seen Gen. I-I'amiiton~ in the re-
cess. and cannot- speak for him; but have no
doubt that the rumor is as unfounded in. him
as in my case. In fact, I may say that the
united voice of this State, including all par-
ties and every pursuit, is opposed to the sys-
tem. As far asI am infornied, I scarcely
know an exception.

In the township of Millvillc and South Arri-

whicli, on investigation, ivr-re found to be il-
legal and fraudulent. Of this, no honest
man who 1‘-ends the lt‘SIOfl'lOll_\'. can have a
shadow of doubt ; and no Jury of candid men
acting under oath would liesizzite to pronounce
tliem so. They were so treated, by the con-
stituted authorities of the State of N. J. who
had a right by law to count, and judge in
the first z'n.st(t.7t.ce, of their illegality and be-
ing ex:-.lud-ed, a clear in jority of the legal
votes appeared for the caiidi_d:-itt-s who receiv-
ed the certificates. Let it here be renienibe-r-
red, that every State has the constitutional
rightto prescribe the mode by which the votcs
for members of Congress shall be counted,
illegal votes ascertained and rejected, and
certificates of election issued. But th: sc
certificates are only pr2°i2_2ofacie evidence, and
are subject to the supervision of Congress
through its commitce ofElections, and to the
vote of Congress after such investigation,
on the question ivlte-titer the member re-
ceiving the certific.ate or his antagonist be
really elected. It follows then, that the per-
son who receives the t.‘.ertificatc oftlieconsti
tuted authorities ofa State. is entitled to the
seat till the State decision is reversetl. Such
has been the uniform practice of Congress
from the organization of the Government
down to the present session of Coiigrcss.
Probily a liundretl cases of contested elec-
tions liavc occurred and in no one instance
has this principle been deviated from. In the
present instance, the constitutional right of it
sovercing State, is for the first time setaside,
the decent respect dtie to bet‘ constituted att-
thorities withheld, and her solemn actl never
liertoforc disi'eg:irded—traniplt-d contempt-
ously iii the dust. All this is done by the
action of the C-lerlr of the House of repre-
sentatives——a more scrvarit of the House—a
ministeriztl officer who has no power what-
ever tojudge and decide on this matter or
any other relating to the prcvilcge of the

The Steamship Liverpool, Captain Engle-
ston, (says the Nexv Yorkcr,) arrived in otir
waters on Tliurstaty afternoon, having left
Liverpool oti the l6th ult. thus making her
passage in about 19 days. The news brouglit
by her is of no very pressing interest. An
advance on cotton ofthrcc-fourtlis of a penny
had taken place, and the money market was
a shade easier. U. S. Batik stock was at 161.

Coburg Saalfield, Ernest and Albert, will
leave the castle at an early hour tomorrow
morning, in one of the Q.ueeri’s carriages
‘liorsed by the royal horses,’ for Dover, where
they will embark that afternoon for the Con

Alvensleben, and Count Kolowrath. The
two Princes will proceed direct to Brussels,
on a short visit to their uncle, the King of
the Belgians, previously to their return to
Gerrnnny. Prince Albert’s return to Eng-
land has been arranged to take place in
March next; and we state, upon the best au-
thority, that, in the course of the following
month, or early in May, the marriage of her
Majesty with this “fortunate youth” will take
place, Some curious rumors are afloat re-
specting the cause of the late visit of the
Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to her
Majesty. Prince Greorge, at one pt-t'iO(l, as
well as their Royal Highness, looked forward
to an alliance with the Queen; but those
hopes (however sartguine thvy might have
been. some two or three years since) are now
blighted; for our readers may rest assurred
that Prince Albert is “the destined man.”
It was stated in the Jlfarn-ing Herald, a few
days since, that Mr. Ross. A.R.A. , (who has

mands to paint it portrait of Prince Albert.
The likeness, which is intended for a locket
for her Majesty. and is a most admirable re-
st-rriblanct-., isjust finished; and the Queen,
it is stated, will wear it for the first time this
evening. Mr. H‘. E. Dawe has nearly com-
pleted an excellent lilrericss of the Prince,
