Mr Srviex remarked that the first anbual divi- dend under that law, would not be payable before the let of July, and the Senator from entncky {Mr. Cray) proposed, before that time arrived, to appropriate that which belonged fe two States to be divided among other States which h: re- fused to receive that which was assigned them.

The proposition was one of such extraordinary cl ter, that he could not extend to it se much courtesy as to give toit the sanciion ef an inquiry even, Mr. Sutra and Mr. Bucwanan made some fur- ther remarks. Mr. Sevier said the proposition was of such a character, that it was almost an insult to call upon a man with only three ideas in his head to discuss it No geod could result to the natien fiom its ‘gr nee he therefore moved tolay it on the table. Mr. Cray demanded the yeas and nays, which were ordered; and, being taken, were—yeas 13— nays 31. So the Senate refu on the table. Mr. Cray made some effort here to modify e- solution to evade a vote on the naked proposition of Mr. King, and Messrs. Clay. Evans, and. Ber- rien made some remarks, Pee ttouas that at that stage Mr. C. hada right to modify his resolution. Messrs.

So the resolution was adepted. Mr. Brenton made an effort to have the bill to po.tpone the Bankrupt Law taken up, but was su- perseded on the floor by . Mr. Wacxex, who submitted a resolution eall- ing upon the Presi: of the United States for the Papers and proceedings of the Mexican Commis a held in this city for the adjustment of claims aguinst Mexico for s,oliations on the property of American citizens, He believed that not only the Senate, bat the whole civilized world would be astonished at the proceedings of Mexico on those claims, when the facts counected with this Commis: sisn should be brought to the inspeetion of the country. He believes the commission must have been selected, on the part of Mexico, with the view of preventing the possibility i i tion of the claims. He bi m pice _ beforethe umpire spurious doeum itd tead of submitting papers on both ly Cases, only one side was presented, fe was cowpelled to proceed in the ing his decision. The resolution was, on the suggestion of Mr Cray, laid over till to-morrow. The Senate then adjourned. The following diplomatic nominations were sent to the Senate to-day :—Minister to Spain, Wa-1- nGTon Invina ; to Mexico, Wanpy (iompson; Charge des Affaires to Bogota, Mr. Buatcuroxp. House of Representatives. Tue Tantrr—Aprpropaiation Bits—Tue Commir- Tre oN Foreioy Revations—Taw Secamrary oF tne Navy anp Mr. Borrs. After the presentation of numerous petitions in he House of Representatives, Mr. Cusnixa moved @ reconsideration of the vote of yesterday,by which he House refused to receive the petition from Ha- verhill, Massaehugetts, praying for the dissolution of the Union. His object was to get ina speech,which he had promised the House when the resolution of cansure on Mr. ADams was under consideration,but the Speaker decided that the gentleman was not in order, and on an appeal, the House sustained the Speaker's decision. Surely the House had heard enough on the subject, and Mr. Cusutna’s private explanations ought, as they have been compelled to do, to give way to the public interests. The House then proceeded to the consideration of the resolution offered some time since by Mr. Eve- rett, the Chairman of the Committee on Manufac- tures, for authority to send for witnesses to give testimony respecting the operation of the tariff laws on the interests of the country. The resolution was supported by Mr. Tituuxcasr ; and an amendment was then proposed by Mr. A. V. Brown to prevent the examination of persons on branches of business in which they are interested. @Mr. Woop, of New York, expressed himself to be in favor of enquiry, but he wauted the infor. mation to come trom every class and every interest, and not from a particular class, whose in- terests were to be eeeeces by the sacrifice of others. He believed the House was Jamentably ignorant on the subject, and that light was, necessary, but he could not vote for a resolution to give the committee on manufactures che power to concentrate it. He spoke of the committee with respect, but he could not ferget that they were men, and that, as men, they were liable to be operated upon by their preju- dices and passions and interests: as men, with hu- man infirmities, they might unconsciously give a false coloring to the facts which they might col- lect ; and to show the influences by which the: might naturally be supposed to be governed, he quoted largely from the statistics of the last cen- sus to show that two-thirdsof the committee repre- sented manufacturing constituencies, and from this he argued that their prejudices would favor a pro- tective policy. He was interrupted at the expira- tien of the morning hour, and the House, after re- ceiving several reports from executive departments, wont into committee of the whole on the state of the Union, Mr. Briggs, of Massachusetts, in the chair. The committee considered and reported complete, without amendment, the bill making ap- proptiations for pensions for the year 1812, and a bi!l making appropriations for the relief and protection of American seamen ia foreign countries—and they were ordered to be engrossed for a third reading to- morrow. The committee next took up the Civil and Diplomatic Appropriation Bil], which was read, and after a few words from Mr. Fittstone and Mr. Apams, the committee rose aud reported prc gress The House then adjourned, having first agree resolution requesting the President to communi- cate any correspondence to the House that may have taken place between this Government and the Go- yernment of Great Britain and other goyernmenta, in relation ta the colonial history of New York. Thus it will appear that the House has returned to and commerced the consideration of the public bu- siness, thongh another outbreak may not be unex- pected, for it is understood that a mpjoriry of the committee on foreign relations—the south- em and western members—-have resolved not to i with es as ‘ike Force gy rather to resign the ions they hold.

The amount of interest to be paid on the first of Feb- rury was $864,410 64; and the premium on currency for nifrom specie, Phe Treasurer of the State had caused to be placed to the credit of Commonwealth, it is Bank, ween the first of August, 1841, and the 3ist of Ja yf 1642, about $788,000. This sum was received st different times, in different amounts, partly in checks on various Banks in this place and its ‘deighvorhood, and on Harris. burg and Easton, the principal part of which was paid in motes of, and checks on the Girard Bank. So large an emount of these notes were received, being six hun- dred thousand dollars and upwards, thet it was thought expedient to pay them out to depositors and others as freely as poesible, in order to diminish the amount. The deposites of the Commonwealth‘have never been of a special character, and hav: tem ‘always treated iy other general deposites have the circulation and deposites of this Bank were greatly reduced. The Bank being then undoubted in its credit, it was fully expected that its own notes, then every where current, would be, as they always} had been, re- ceived in payment of the interest ; and until the run on he Bank, which commenced on the twenty-seventh of ary, tne officers of the Bank entertained no doubt of yment of the interest. It is their belief, thet if ire, which no previous preparation could led them to resist, had not taken place, no dif- ficulty would have existed in making that payment. To show th acter and extent of thi is stated, that on the three consecutive di 2th and’s9th of January, the Bank paid of Deposites, And of its notes 60,692 Over and above its receipts, $466,778 The following is an extract from the message of Go- vernor Porter of Pennsylvania, in relation tothe State interest :— Late on the evening of the Ist February, a successful arrangement was made, by which I have lieve the payment ofthe interest due has menced, and will be completed as soon as the fands can be erranged for the purpore. ‘This arrangement consiste in the application of the available funds of the Bank of Pennsylvania, to wit :— For Bills of Exchange, of the value of $116,000 Specie, 234 000 Bills receivable and soon available, 150,000 And the proceeds ofa requisition made upon the other banks, which will be sufficient to pay the balauce ofthe interest due, the whole of which will be assuredly met in the course of a fortnig! ks. The State Treasurer, by himself ill make the pay- ments of inter the bank, or at the Treasury. Letters from C. jnnati describe that city in a state of the highest excitement in relation to banking affairs on the 2] instant—e heavy run was kept up on the Urbana Bank. The known rottenress of all the banks, added tothe approaching day fixed for resumption, March 4th, renders the populace anxious to get rid of as much bank paper as possible. The Bank of Montreal has given assurance by a formal vote, that it is responsible for the issues of the Bank of the People. In the State Assembly, Mr. Townsend presented a me- morialofthe New York Banks, charging the Bank Com- missioners with mal-conduct, in parmitting the Safety Fund to be wasted, and demanding a Legislative investi- gation. This is a most admirable movement. The Commissioners are appointed to protect the public from the misconduct ef the banks, and to keep a watch over the banks, to close them up when they are going wrong, before their capitals are sunk, in order to prevent loss to the safety-fund, and thereby inflicting a loss upon the well managed banks: Iustead of performing this duty, however, they have not only allowed bank after bank to explode, after sinking their whole capitals, but also the whole Safety Fuad, and leaving an unprovided for ba- lance of $400,000/for which the sound banks are to be taxed for years to come. At the same-moment Mr. Chandler Starr took it upon himtelf to publish a card censuring this paper for cautioning the public against those banks, which he should, in the discharge of his duty have previously wound up. This is an important matter and well worthy the scrutiny ef the Legisla- ture. It will be remenibered, that on the first of January, the interest of the State of Arkansas on its debt was not paid The interest is payable by the Real Estate Bank, and the State Bank,in whose behalf the bonds were issued. The Real Est Bank, sent forward to meet its share of the interest, some .of its assets maturing in this city in May aad June. These were to have been discounted by the Phoonix bank where the interest is payable,bnt owing to the pressure inthe market,that institution was unable todoso, andthe interest remained unpaid. The State Bank having some difficulty in rsising monoy,did not re- mit until the time had gone by. Within afew days, how: ever, specie has arrived to meet a part of the interest. Of the bonds issued to the Real Estate Bank of Arkansas, $600,000 were,it will be remembered, hypothecated by the commissioners, Messrs. Hartis and Briscoe, to the North American Trust and Banking Company of this city, and by them sold to Mesars. Holford, Brancker & Co. Subsequently, in consequence of the failure of the North American Trust & Banking Company on its part of the contract, Messrs. Harris & Briscoe declared the eontract void, and the question of repudiation has been raised in Arkansas, One party contends, that although the Real Estate Bank pledged the bonds in violation of the law, that Messrs. Holford, Brancker & Co..are the in- nocent purchasers, and the State is bound to pay the bonds according to their face. The following isan ex- tract from the Little Rock Times & Advocate on the ur representative in Congress, Judge no advocates with t! ones iS jaet of any party, any where, except in aud and manifest violation of law and moral right” We agree with him, and contend that there is no violation of either “law or moral right” in the purchase of the bonds by Holford & Co. of the North American Trust Company. The ‘ violation of law and moral right” is on the part of the Real Estate Bank in hypothecating the bonds con- trary to law, and in violation of “ meral right” towards the State, whu is her security on the bonds, and is bound to pay them if the bank does not. As well might the se- curity on an individual note refuse to pay that xote, because it had been sold for one fourth of its face, as the ‘State refuse paying the bonds because the bank sold them for less thon their face. ‘The following,s a letterjfrom GovernorYell of Arkan- sas toa gentleman in this city ia relation to the para graph here quoted:— . Lirrur Roc, Jan. 19, 1942 This is from the organ of one of the political parties in the state, (whig). They may get upa bond and anti-bond rty. I have received your answer to my latter of the 10th November last. It deserves and shall have a respect- ful reply soon. The world all seems topsey-turvey. Yours, A. YELL. The question of paying or not paying, with the western States, is not one of will, but of ability; which ability may be tested very nearly by a comparison of the resources of each state with the State of New York, which state finds it almost impossible to raise money to meet its liabilities. We recently gave the report of the committee of ways and means of the State of Indiana, in which they avow their inability to meet the demands upon the state. From the resent returns of the census statistics ef the United States, we come at ctual resources of each state. In estimating the value of the products we must take into consideration that the grains and other produce of the west, are of much less money value to the producers who have to pay the taxes, than tojthose ofthe Atlantis states. For instance, the price of wheat in New York is $1 25; at the west it varies from fifty cents te seventy-five cents per bushel. On this basis we have estimated the product of each state from the census returns as follows Paovwcts or Isoiana as et AED WITH THOSP OF New ly Koos, feel aka tarer, otton fe) manufactnres Hillel IIH B22 005 oss ‘$17 /969.920 ‘Betas Pal Meena errr ene ia as Zt.

Agein,the town and county texes of the western states are always heavier in proportion than those of the ay now turn to the fact that the State of New York, with all these immense advantages in its favor, cannot raise money for less than ten per cent. How then can any improvement of credit be ex+ peeted from the western t the Stock Exchange. 50 Pech Drov. Bk. 40 Del. aud Hud. 2 do Atlantic States.
