 l The hill fron, the Senate nnthnriying ,b. cL. \. llors of ihe State to remove from oce at dircre- ton, registers and masters in chancery, to which referred some days ago, as having passed the Sem ate. up in the House to-day, and Dr. Kt,rell

 member of the legis ature from Greene county, af. ter some remarks Tn reference to this bi as reflect jag upon chancellor Clark, read letter fiom that gentleman. in which the chancellor, in very plain, frank. psin,ed sandor, and in some respects sealed terms. sxculpates himself from asy tlame whatever in reference his claim to the right of apponlisg reg steIs. He claims it constitutional right - He Is chancellor under the constitution until the ad. jnurnment of the legislature. He has never p, opos. ed to fill any office oi register, except those m which vacancies, by limitation sf term, shall expire His letter throws the matter ia its proper light You will have ii. suppose, in the Tuscaloosa Flag of Friday next.

 This bIll, after having been amended, so as is ap- ply only to the particular in reisrence to the proposed right of ihs two chancellors, and taking from il its general character passed, though it is still thought by many that the bill is impoltic and uajust. Mir. KlltrelI, of Greene, made some inter- estins remarks this subject. Mr. Miller moved a reconsi alteration of the vote of adoption Mir. Clay made soRe remarks upon the motion, .against ihe bill, and wishing time to examine the subject. ! The fact is, the Senate la ifssy d0~s smartly ln pass,us this bill and great injustice has been done to Chancellor Clarke. think I notified ,ou that this bill passed the Senate by the suspension of the constitutional rule which requires bills be read on three separate days, and under very snds niGed chemeat.

 Businsss progresses slowly iH the Senate. A few days ago bill was introduced in the Senat te by Mir. Smith of Cherokee, to equalise the l6th Section Fuad, and was referred To the committee on the 18th section. Yesterday the chairman of that committee refused substitute providing for the reniuishment, (by consent of Congress, which the chairman said was a mere matter of ferm, ) of the surplus yevssSs drposte with Alabama. to be appl,ed to Common Schools. The amoun, Of this fund, think, is something ever $500, ,0o0. Mr. Norris suggested that that if the Senate intended ts agree ihe subst tate, they had better provide for the issuing of sseres varrssi to fad the money A pretty hard bit but true one.

 1 enclose you bill introduced yesterday by Mr. Sellers of Wilcox, te wind up the State Banks-its main feature, the appointment oi commissioners. conforms to the suggestions of Governors Fitzpatrick and Martin. IL is the iHien,ion of the bill to place our Banks m the charge of the most efficient tal- ent that can be procured.

 Nothing occurred to-day Of interest. The Sen. ais adjourned to meet on Friday, passing over Christmas. Alter the holidays the two Houses will get to work in earnest. /
