Smithson, of England, for the diffusion of know ledge; and which have, heretofore, been vested in public stocks, until such time as Congress should think proper to give them specific direction. Nor will you, feel confident permit any abatement of the principal of the legacy to be made should turn out that the stocks in which the investments have been made have undergone depreciation.

 In conclusion, l commend to your care the inter ests of this District for which you are the exclusive legislators. Considering that this city is the resi- dence of the Government, and for large part of the year. of Congress and considering, also, the great cost of the Public Buildings, and the proprety of affording them at all times, careful protection, it seems not unreasonable that Congress should con- tribute toward the expense ofan efficient police;

 WAsH1NsToN, December 2, lS4l.

 WASHINGTON. Dec. 2.

 The Message of the President was receiV- ed in both Houses of Congress to-day, at l2 o'clock, and read to large audiences, who. ere the time appointed, were present, and await ing its arrival with manifestations of interest as we'll as curiosity to learn what !" fiscali- ty' would be recommended; the prominent features of which are such us were shadow cd forth in your paper some days since.

 In the Senate, on motion of Mir. Mangum, the Message was laid on the table, and the usual number ordered 10 be printed. MT. M. also moved that l,5OO with the accompany ing documents, and $500 without, be printed. Mir. Benton here took occasion to express his entire hostility and condemnation of the fis- cal features of the Message, styling it Brit ish Whig measure, such us originated in England in the reign of George l. and entail ed a national debt of millions on that country, and such as had been brought forward in another form by Nick Biddle.' The extra number of copies was then ordered to be printed, and the Senate adjourned.

 In the House, the Message having been read, Mr. Wise moved that it be laid on the table, and the usual number, and ten thou sand extra copies. with the accompanying documents, be printed.

 MT. Samson Mason of Ohio inquired if the gentleman meant to include in the documents to be printed, the advertisement to the Con- gressional Globe and Appendix, which to his great surprise he found attached 10 the copy laid on his desk.

 Mr. Wise replied that he moved the print ing of the paper that had been read by the Clerk, and imputed the question to the ma. lice and ill-feeling of the gentleman toward the President. He explained the probable manner in which the Message in that form had reached the gentleman's desk. He then briefly and with much spirit adverted to the charges of treason and pcrfidy recently bro't against the President, and averred that they were as groundess as that of the Presidents authorizing the printing this advertisement with his Message. The motion to print was then carried.

 The unfinished business of yesterday, the motion of Mir. Cost Johnson, was by that gen. tlcman, so modified as to provide for the adoption for fifteen days, of the rules of the last Congress Gnclusivc of the 2lst) and for making the report oft Committee on Rules the special order for Thursday, and until the subject is decided on this he moved the pre- vious question, which, after some cOnversa- tion as to the fact whether it was not yester- day moved, was called for by the House. The motion was then carried by Yeas 97, Nays 95 and thus this ungovernable body. especially when excited on the subject of Abolition, is brought temporarily under the government of rules, although much excite snent and confusion may bc anticipated when the subject of their permanent adoption comes up.

 Rules having been adopted, on motion of Mr. Briggs, it was resolved that the several Standing Committees named in the said rules be appointed by the Speaker; and then, l2 o'clock having been fixed os the hour of meeting until otherwise ordered, the House adjourned.-Corres. ". Y. Tribune.

 Tle Senate adopted n joint resolution for the election of two Chaplains to interchange weekly during the session which was con- cured in by the House. The Senate were in session about ten minutes.

 In the House. after some conversation as to the business to be taken up, MT. Carurhers asked permission to introduce 10 the House the subject of disa agreement between him. Sclfand Mir. Dawson of La. as 10 their respec- tive right to the desk in the House, formerly occupied by Hon. John Sergeant, which was claimed by Mr. Caruthers OH the ground ot a transfer 10 him by MT. Sergeant. and was also claimed by Mir. Dawson. both of which gentlemen had agreed to refer this insportsm matter io the decision of the House. Some conversation arose on the subject, and Me. Stanley offered resolution declaring that Mir. C. was entitled to the desk, which, after some further remarks, was adopted.

 Hon. William Smith, Representative elect from Va, was qualified, and took his seat.

 The House then, after a session of nearly an hour, adjourned.-Ibid.

 WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.

 All is calmness, reflection and earnest in- quiry with regard to the Financial and Cur rency project Of the Administration. l find many members favorably impressed with it. others whose prepoSSessions are adverse, and ~otne who have not formed decided opin- ion; bu: nearly all disposed to exame 1t tho roughly, consider it fairly, and finally do whatever the wishes and the true interests of the country shall seem to dictate. If there are any predisposcd to condemn 1t because it comes from Mr. Tyler, think they are few, at least among the Wings.
