In the Senate. great numbers of pPl.ll.lODS
on the subject of the Bankrupt Law still con-
tinue to be presented, a few suggesting
amendments, or as an alternative, repeal,
but principly against the repe:il._
A resolution previously submitted by Mr.
Allen, was taken up, calling on the Score-
tary of the Treasury for information wheth-
er in his opinion the Government can in the
present exigencies be carriiad on, without
either recalling the revenue arising from the
ublic domain, or drawing from the people,
in addition to their present taxes, an amount
equal to that revenue in the form of tarifl
duties, or by new and direct taxes, or by
borrowing on their credit by Treasury notes
or loan; and if one of these alternatives
is necossziry, which will be the most eco- ,
nomica-l; and the rcusonstherefor.
The resolution was laid on the table.

day by Mr. Evans, from comrziittce on

examined thestate of finances, stating that
there was a present deficit in the Treasury
of more than one million dollars, and show-
ing that the public wants for the year. not

but the remainder of the loan, and urging

up and dz-bated at some length. and Willi "1-
terest, chiefly in reference to the amendment
reported by the Committee to strike out the
proviso inserted by the House that the
Treasury Notes should be in lieu of so much
of the Twelve Million Loan.
Messrs Woodbury, Calhoun, King and
Buchanan, opposed the amendment as ad-
ding five millious to the public. debt, advo-
cating economy in conducting the Govern
ment, and contending that the bill as it came
from the House-in which shape it would re-
cc-ive their support-furnished suflicient pre-
sent supply forthe wants ofthe Government.
Mr B. expressed his uniform aversion to
the issue of.'l‘rcas,ui'y Notes, into‘ which,
however, he hail been drafted from time to
time, and his preference to a loan even at 7
per cent.
Messrs Rives and Evans referred to. the
demonstration made yesterday in the speech
of the latter, that both the proposed amount
of Treasury Notes, and the remainder of the
Loan would be necessary to carry on the
Government.

against the bill, as he had uniformly done,
believing the issue of Treasury Notes to be
unconstitutional.

adopted : Yeas 24, N-iys 21.

Forgery Deleclerl.--On Saturday, officer
Boivyer arrested a broker in “la” street,
Mr. Francis Mitford, charged with forging
the names of Messrs. Tracy, M.-iver & Ir-
win, to a note. for 53846 I4, dated September
l7th, l84l, at four months diiie, payable to
the order of IV. T. Crook &. Co., and by
them endorsed. When the fact of Mr. Mit-
ford’s arrest was known, it was ascertained
that he had forged the names of the following
firms to notes of various amounts, in all,
about 88,000, or 89.000, W. T. & S. W'a ring,
about 1,200; \’Vurd & Alkin, 35800;" Bll1l'l\
chard & Blodget, 3700; Dorr-mus, Suydam
5L Nixon, 800, b-Asides others who are not
yet known. Mr Mitford had been in the
habit ofrcceiving the notes of the above firms
in the course of his business, and from the
genuine signatures, he had managed to forge
the names so successfully as to get the forg-
ed notes readily discounted.
'l'he note which was the immediate cause
of his arrest, was lodged in the Banks for
collection, and notice being sent to the sup-
posed names, the forgery \\ as detected, and
siiispicion falling upon Mr. Mitford, he was
arrested. He did not deny the charge, and
was committed for examination. All the
forged notes yet ascertained are drawn to the
same order, that of W. T. Crmlr c.-. Co., and
endorsed by tliein.—«C'rm-r. Eiiguii-cr.

drew a long whifi, then pulled out his pipe
and exhaling a long coluuin of smoke, cal-
led the lad to him, and patting him on the
shoulder, asked him : ‘ My son. what’s the

thought a moment, then scratching his bum

be let loose upon the nations of the old

tremble beneath its blows, and Britain's fast

the mighty deep, and we remain so unmo'.'ed-
so selfsupplied, as not to feel the loss----th_is'.
this would be, to me the very realization of
American Independence and prosp-;-ritv.--
But this country is not and never can’ be

and own capital are left unprotected. Nev-

own Government‘ to crush the industry and
dash down all the enterprise of those it should

lay his hand upon them. My observation
in life has taught me to believe that in all

friends, why be eternally striking at the sore
which, God knows. is sore enough without
turmoil and excitement about abolition ?—
Wliy this constant determination to disturb
and meddle with our domestic concerns? I
can conceive of no other or better reason for
it than the man gave for beating his wife-
"because I am able to do it.” It was (lan-
gerous he knew, to attempt to prophecy, but
this he would venture to predict: if ever this
georgeous, this temple to human freedem,
should be pulled down or consumed, that
would do it.
"When Americans spoke of dissolving the
Union r; they spoke of what they should not
—the idea was unnameahle. The Greek
legislator gave it as a reason for providing
no punishment for parricide, that such crime
ought never to be meniioned.”
This is the voice ofa p.=itriot-—a voice, we
are sorry to say. now seldom heard in its pu-
rity. There is a deep and powerfultruth in
what was then said. This country "cannot
