in Committee of the VVliole, Mr Everett’s

amendment, making it the duty of the Sec

retary of the Treasury to dispose of the stock

at the shortest time possible at ‘par, but no

This amendment was adopted without do

hate.

toms to the payment of the stock, Mr Ever

for a Loan or Treasury Notes, until the
ways and means for their redemption are
raised, to remedy this difiiculty,‘ moved a
substitute for this amendment, reenacting the
same duties as were levied on the lst of Jan-
uary, 1840, on imports, pledging the reven-

ue thus received to the redemption of this
stock, and providing that in case the duty
thus levied should exceed twenty per cent.
it shall effect in no wise the disposition of the
public lands, as provided by the Distribution

Act.

Mr Fillmore raised the point that this a-

The resolutions of Mr Clay, relative to

In the House, after reading the Journal,
Mr. Calvary Morris asked a suspension of
the rules to enable him to offer two resolu-

American citizen has a right to express
his opinions in any way he chooses, and if
arraigned therefor to be heard in his defence

and, 2d. that the censure of the Hon. J. R
Giddings unheard, was a violation of his
rights. Leave to’ offer was refused.

Mr. Fessenden ofiered resolutions instruct-
ing the Committee on Commerce to amend
acts already passed for the reliefof disabled
seamen, so as to make all employed in li-
censed vessels liable to the contributions im-
posed by the act of July l6, l798; and also
to inquire into the ‘expediency of revising acts

ABOLITIONISM AT THE POLIS.

It is not the object ofthis article to diicuss
in any manner the merits of Abolition,ii-ith
er pro nor can ; but to attempt to contince
those of our fellow citizens who feel this to
be a duty, that it is for their interest, fuithe
furtherance of their cause, to give thr-irsup3
port to tho Whigs in the coming election.

It needs no argument to show to you that
all the energies of the opposition di-
rected to securethe election ofJohn M Niles
to the Senate ofthe United States. Tlis is
:in undeniable fact. Anothemis plain, ii that

and we Chairman h,,,.;,.,,, decided mé instance in which he ever dared to siiiport

the North in opposition to the South. His
uhole course on this subject, has been a-
gaidstthe interests of his State ; he regards
a few flattering words from the S0lJll’ltl‘n-"l‘
much more than the voice of his constituents.
Now what have you tayexpect from such a
man? Not/ii/i.,_«,r but 0P770:9lll(l7l? His vote
will ever go to throw away the right of pe-
tition, to continue sl:i_ver._v in the District of
Columbia, and in short, with the South.
Now, while you have nothing but oppo-
sition to expect from him, it is wisdom to do
that which may. thong/i iiulirectly be the
means of sending him to Congress .7 That
it is your desire to use the best means to ad-
vance your cause, we very well know. But
are you doing this, when you support a
ticket which has not the least chance of
success .7 Is it not wise, "of two evils to
choose the least,” and though the Whigs as
a body are not of your peculiar views, yet
are they not more liberal. to all parties .7—-
Do they not labor for the perpetuation of
those. principles inculcated in our Constitu-
tion. upon which you rely for success .7 Who

tain your precise views, but because they
hold to giving all their rights, and oppress

parties is it, that dares to stand forth and op-
pose the South in her acts of oppression C3-
The Whigs 'l Now I say it is not wisdom
to give your votes to a party which will ren-
der justice to all,irather than supporta ticket
which must fail .7

VVe ask for your votes, not because we
fear the result of the coming election——not
because the \Vhigs are not strong enoiigli
to carry theirticket alone—it is not for these
reasons. It‘ is because we know that most
of the ‘Abolition party are IN HEART wines
and that they have brought themselves to
feel that it will advance their cause to carry
it to the polls. Now, are you not mistaken ’.3
Should this object be madethe subject of po-
litical strife more than any other moral
cause .7 But if it is right—-if to vote for
none butan abolitionist, is the direct way to
carry your point, isit not wisdom in you to
take that course, which will defeat a man,
who is uncompromisingly opposed to your
principles .7 Why should he not oppose
you, as long as his sympathies are with the
South, as long as he will sacrifice the best
interests‘ of his State and throw his vote a-
gainst the North. ,

From the Litc/ificlcl Enquirer.

W'hen Jackson and Van Buren came into
power they found an ovérfloitving Treasury,
a uniform currency, and a country prosper
ous and happy. When one year ago they
went out of power, they left the Treasu.iy
empty, the Goveriimcitt in debt to the tune
of twenty millions of dollars, and the tarifl
on duties so reduced as to afford but about
two thirds of the revenue necessary to pay
the ordinary expenses of the natioi‘. And
now forsooth because. the whigs have not in
one year paid ofl this heavy Llebl, restored
the currencv to its f‘0fl(llllt't'l in the days
of Monroe and Adziins, and brought the ex-
clianges to their former rates, the dcstructives
C.l_l$ll‘,§_-l't-3 that they have failed to fulfil their
promises. Tliuiy ought to know, innocent
souls. that it is much more difficult to get
out oftlebt when our credit is destroyed by
quack experiments, than it was to get into
debt when our credit was good all over the
world.
