wAsais6ros, Feb. g.
In senate, to-day, the interesting present ot
Mr.. Samuel T. Washington to Congress, was re-
ceiyed from the House, together with the fesolo-
| tions relating thereto.


| Mr.. ARCHER preceded the adoption OF the rs'
solutions, BY appropriate address, and IN h0hos
of the occasion the Senate adjourned.
| In the HOUSE, on motion of Me- BRIGGS the
journal of yesterday having been amended oy en-
serng upon it the letter Of Samuel I. Washington

Mes,rs. Summers and Adams, the resolutions
adopted. &c) were ordered printed.
Mr.. THOMPSON of To. made another attempt by
a motion of reconsideration to take Up from the
,able ,he resolution to terminate debate on the bill
making indemnify for French speliatons. Ate r
MANY points of order, the whole subject was laid
on the table.


The motion of Mr.. PEARcE Of Md, from the
Committee on the Judiciary, for the printing OF


FIVE thousand extra copies of his adverse report on
the subject of Gen. Jackson's ane and OF the MI
| nority report on the same subject, was carried
On motion of Mr.. FILLMORE, the House re-
solved itself into Committee of the Whole on the
Union, (Nir. ALLEN of Me. in the chaiE,) and re-
sumed the consideration of the Navy Appropria'
ton bill.


Mr.. HOLMES of sc. (Loco) drew most gloomy
picture of the financial condition and prospects OF
the country: predicted that crisis was near at
| hand when, unless immediate relief was afforded
BY the cooperation Of all parts OF the housa' the
Government would be bresght to stand-the rev.
enue from Gus toms has been almost entirely cut
off by the exorbtant and almost prohibitory pro-
,ective tariff of last session arralgned the h,gs
for criminal remissness of duty in not providing for
the supply of the Treasury; gave notice that ne
should move to lay the preseat and all apProPria-
tion bills on the table until Committee be ap-
pointed to examine the sta.e of the Treasury and
devise the best means for its supply, &c. &c.
| Mr.. WHITE of Ia made gallant reply and de-
fence of the Wing party, and showed that they had
left no means untried for the support OF the Gov
ernmens He referred to the variety OF contradict
ory charges brought against the Whig party with
reference to their principles, their want OF Prncl-
ples &C.; laid down, three of their principles,
the establishment of National Currency convert


ble into specie at the will of the holder the Distri-
button of the Proceeds of the Public Lands, and
Protective Tariff; held up the glarng inconsistent
ciss and diversities of principle of Focoisn,-
the Southern portion of it openly advocating, as
the doctrine of the party, free trade, and the
Northern acqsiescng in it in Congress, but deceiv-


ing their constituents at home with professions of
favor for moderate duties and incidental prstec-
ton, &C. He called on them to come out and de-
clare for or agains, free trade.


Mr.. Mcclellan of Ny. made an evasive at.


tempt to meet the challenge, stating that if by free
trade was understood direct taxation he was OPP
posed to it, but if low duties and low taxes, he
was in favor of it.


Mr., WHITE said it argued little for the intellig-
ence or for the honesty of the " Democracy" not
to be able themselves define their boasted prin-
ciple of free trade and further dwelt with much
pungency upon the beauties and constituencies OF
| Loco-Focoism, &C. &c.


After farther debate by Messrs. FILLMORE and
C, Brown of Pa, the hour of two having arrived,
the Committee proceeded to vote.


Mr.. MERRIwErAER' amendment to reduce the
pay of the officers OF the Navy 20 per cent was re-
jectsd by about 80 majority.


Various amendments were offered but none Of
importance adopted.


The bill was reported to the House and under
the operation of the previous question was passed
and the House adjourned. ARGUS.
