POStTsSCripv't. (Correspondence of the Herald.) “The Senate—Board of Exchequer—New York Custom Hease, Wasusmeoron, Feb. 28, 1842. In the Senate this morning, after the dieposition of the morning business, Mr. Cuay’a resolutions to abridge the power of the Executive, were taken up, and Mr. Woopsvny made an able and elaborate ar- gumeat in opposition. Mr. Cuay stated some days ‘ago that he was determined to press these resolutions to a vote, but the impression now is that they will be laid on the table. It is seid that hardly a dozen Senators are in favor of the proposition. The principle and general features of the adminis- tration scheme of fiaance are daily gaining favor among the rezk and file of both parties in the House of tatives,and the Senate aleo. The gere ral sentiment of the people, and their expectation that the question will be settled at the present seo sion, is beginning to have its effect on Congress, and the opinion is gai>ing ground that the power of the Jeaders on both sides will soon be insufficient to con- trol a majority of the House: Many persons who were expected to break ground against it, have ex- d a determiaation to give it a support. In spite of all the oppesition which was threatened on the part of the ultra whigs. and locofoces,it may yet pass. The “sober second thought” is not without its influence. Indeed, it is insufferable that the country should bekept in a state ofinquietude,if not distress, by the tnsanity of a few politicians, whose consequence is derived from their opposition to every thing. It is admitted on all hands that a majority in both branches of Congress are amxinus to settle the vexed question of the currency at the preeent time ; and it an hardly be doubted that, if left to act indepen- dently and without regard to the ulterior designs of the leaders.on either side, the Cabinet projet, with some insiderable modifications, would pass into a law. But Mr. Cray, om the one hand, and the de- mocratic presidential aspirants in the Senats on the other, will resist. it with all their might. ‘These men all have a common object in view ; but they expect to accemplish it in different ways ‘They all desire to bring the administration into dis- Tepute, and to break down President Tyler. The mass, both in,Congress and among the people, do not sympathise with those ambitious men ; and it is to become a queation of supremacy between the leaders in Congress, and the rank and file who have hitherto acted under their guidance. Mr. Cray, who always mistakes public senti- ment, and gathers his opinions of the popular will from the speculating politicians by whom he is sur- rounded, will endeavor to thwart the patriotic in- tentions of the President, and the honest unambi- stious men in both Houses of Congress, because he thinks the difficutties and embarrassments of the Country will eventually become so exasperated, if there shall be no legislation on the subject, that the people will come to the conclusion thata National Bankis indispensable. He expects this state of the public mind to be produced in seasen for him to mount his old hobby and ride into the Presidential chair in 1844. On the other hand, Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Calhoun, .. Mr. Benton, and Mr. Wright, who represent the interest of Mr. Van Buren, all view the matter ina totally different light from Mr. Clay. They have Ro apprehension of such a state of thingsas he an ticipates. They see that the tendency of the bank corruptions whieh are daily disclosed.and the distress Consequent upon them,is the destruction of the whole banking system—to ultraism and to ‘hard money exclusively. But mone of them .view the matier either practically or philosophically. They all mistake both the desiga and effect of the present popular movemeat, They are not sufficiently im- pressed with the fact that the public uneasiness and impatience springs from a demre to see the question settled—to see some regular, permanent system adopted, to which ‘the people can con. form their business arrangements. Neither ef the gentlemen named has the sagacity to lead off in favor of the exchequer, others secure in part the credit of composing the currency question. All fear the popularity of the measure, but no one of them dares to stop and assist in its passage, for fear the others will go on with the movement and take the democratic party with them. In this atate of thiags, ‘the people owe it to them- selves, to speak to their representatives in tones of thunder and in language that cannot be misunder- stood. If there is not independence and manliness enough in Congress to sjurn the dictation of inte.- ested party leaders, and act in conformity with the popular will, then the people must instruct the repre- entative body. There is reason to hope that the power of the leaders wili be broken, and the exche- quer established despite their opposition; but the re- sult isyet doubtful, and a decisive manifestation would have the best possible effect. So far as the President is individually concerned, ‘the defeat or postponement of the fiscal agent would be the most fortunate thing that’ could happen to him. If the measure is rejected, it will be the result of afactious combination of elements now hostile to each other, uniting te embarrass the Administra- tion. The consequence would be, the President would go tothe people on strong and popular is- sue, and to the intrinsic merits of the question would be superadded the indignation inspired by the un- wonhy and selfish opposition of men whe had ob- jects of their own to cubserve. Itis said that the Custom-house commission is now nearly ready to report. Governor Poindexter labors from 10 to 3 every day, and dictates to his amanuensis with the precision of Sir Walter Scott himself. The public will be astonished at the de- velopments which will be made. The conduct ot the late cellector and his worthy adjuncts will startle even the most apathetic, aad Mr. Van Burea him- self will not escape the responsibility of keeping such an officer in place. Some developments in relation to the transactions inthe light-house department, have recently {been made. It is said thatan investigation has been made, and it is ascertained that thousands of dollars are an- nually thrown away inthe port of New York. It is said that monstrous abuses have been discovered ia the vicinity of certain illuminated’ points that buildings have been put up te accommo- date parties of pleasure, and the lights themselves neglected, and that picnic parti ve formerly been in the hahit of going down the bay om Satur- day to blow out Sunday at the expense of the peo- ple, and to the injury of the Treasury. The sab- ject was slightly touched upon by Mr. Proffit, in the House to-day; and when the matter is fi irly up, he intends to lay bare the corruptions practised by the late Collector without fear or favor, One tithe of the frauds in the Custom House, for the inst few years, would mike a picture for every ho- nest man to shudder at. sumed the debate on the reporto im nittee, sin favor Mr. Briggs the views of the ed 80 flippantly about expenditures. ported, and the House adjourned. respected. attained his sixtieth year. among the orators of the day. tion.

This and atter some youune business, Mr. Saltonstall re Hsrengiensn ith ' supported mee Mr. Pickens was also in favor of beginning reforms améngst themselves, and advocated the removal of the convenient desks and easy chairs from that Hall, which he deemed of great importance, qs it would tend fo shorten their debates, and conse- quently diminish their expenditures; but he thoaght the members should be liberally paid, to place them above Executive influence. Mr. Charles Brown ap- peared to think that they were sufficiently paid, but before he could state his reasons the mornivg hour expired, and the House resolved itself into a com- mittee of the whole on the state of the Union, and proceeded with the consideration of the civil and diplomatic appropriation bill. The pending amend- meat was one offered by Mr. Graham to cut off the supp'y of stationery to the members, which was, of couree, negatived, as was aleo a proposition to sttike out the clause appropriating $5,000 for the purchase of books for the library. Another amendment to reduce the appropriation shared the same fate. An amendment which proposed to reduce frem $20,300 to $19,400, the appropriation for salaries of the clerks and inessengers in the Department of State, was likewise negatived. The object of the mover of this amendmert was to reduce the salary of the translator and one clerk to what they were-in 1836. An amendment offered by Mr. Fillmore wag adopted, by which it is provided that here- after all the job printing, binding and stationery of the departments, shall be supplied under contract, after due notice by public advertisement. may effect an essential saving, and perhaps the pub- lie interests would atill be further promotedby the adoption of the suggestion made in the course of the debate to insert the advertisements of the Executive Departments in the newspapers having the largest number of subscribers. That much extravagance has prevailed in the expenditure of the departmeats is apparent. Mr. Proffit, who has been making some research on this subject, intimated that when the proper time came, he would give the country the result of his investigations; and he said they might possibly learn that pens could be purchased for a certain Castem House—far less than $1 50 each —that paper was not always to be bought at $80 per ream—that cast iron contracts to the amount of $50,000 could be made for less thaa 18 cents per pound; aod that fishing parties, ‘and champaigne festivities could not be held in the United States Revenue cutters, and charged under the head of “old junk ;” and if the expenses of the Extra ses- sion were examined, it was possible that it might be found that some gentlemen on that floor had been absent some six weeks receiving regular pay, and also receiving a large salary as Corporation Attor- ney in one of our large cities. This allusion was understood to be made to Mr. McKeon, who, in Mr. Proffits own language, had “ given the House a specimen of smull demogogueism,{by reading from the contingent expenses of the State Department such items as 75 cents for hack hire, $1 for a book, and certain emall items of unavoidable expenditure, occasioned by the lamentable death of the late Pre- sident, while he was drawing large sums in the shape of his per diem, for services which were never ter- dered te the country. Mr. Proffit snidhe would onthe first opportunity convince the gentleman from New York that he ought to be very cateful how he talk- At three o’clock the Committee was found to be! without a quorum ; progress was accordingly re- The House has this day sustained the loss of Mr. Lewis Williams, who died of bilious pleurisy, at one o’elock, after a sickness of some six and thirty hours. He wasin the House on Monday, taking part in its proceedings in hie usual health’; to-day he wasa corpse. Mr. Williama took his seat in Congress as the representative of the constituents now composing the 13th Distr ict of North Carolina’ onthe 4th December, 1815, and he has continued uninterruptedly to represent them to the day of his death. He has fer come time been familiarly de- signated ‘‘ the Father” of the House, and was much Mr. J. Q. Adams, Mr. Taliafero and Mr. Pope, it is understood were in Congress at an earlier period than that at which Mr. Williams took his seat, but their memberships has been interrupted, whilst his has been continuous. He presents the example of a man whose whole life has beeadevo- ted to the service of his country in her legislaturee. After graduating at College. and fitting himeelf for the legal profession, he was returned to serve in his S.ate Legislature, from whence he was transferred to Congrese, in which he has sat for nearly twenty- seven years. Atthe time of his death he had not Washington, like her sister cities of this Union, has her lecturers and literary societies in great numbers. To the former, Professor Espy is soon to be added, he having determined, at the solicitation of his friends, to deliver in this city his course on the Philosophy of Storms. Yankee Hill has already ap- peared in the character of a lecturer, on the rise, progress, manners, and customs of the New Eng- landers, in which ke acquitted himself to the satie- faction of his auditors, amongst whom were several Members of Congress. Mr. Hill’s theatrical reputa- tion has created the impression that he is ever to be laughed at, bat his lecture exhibits him in the coutemplation of the magic strides which New Eng- land has reached from being the wilderness, which wasthe harvest and refuge of the red map, to the crowded work-shop of the Union; while her waters, not ruffled by the ladian canoe, are whi i the sails which her commerce employ ~Yankee cha- racter—Yankee enterprise—Yankee. skill—Yankee courage, and all the other qualities of the Eastern people, were dilated upon, and Mr. Hill concludes both characteristic and humorous illustrations of Yankee peasantry and their peculiariues. The Temperance movement is perveding all class- es of Society. The Anniversary of Washington’s Birth Day was celebrated by a series of public meet- ings of the friends of teetotalism, which added ma- ny members to the Societies.

There ie a greatdesl of uneasiness in the strect in re- lation to the standing of certain weak banks, both of the free institutions and those chartered. The recent in- janction upon the Lafayette Bank, by suddenly depri- ving depositors of their funds, has caused some appre- hension among thove similarly situated in respect to other weak institutions, and rumors of an injunction on another bank, caused a run on it, which we belicve was without foundation. The fact is, thatthe course of the Bank Commissioners forthe past year, has been such, that it has undermined the confidence of the public in an eminent degree. Through their influence, and that of certain cliques, the frequent publication of bank returns was supprerted, and the supervision of the Commis- sioners substituted. This the public have found, by sad experience, to be inefficient to protect them from loss The price at which the stocks of the banks sellin the market, is a very good indication of the stability of the institution. Previous to the election for officers in the Mechanics’ Banking Association, we urged upen the stockheHMers the importance of sifting into the condition of that bank, and if found to he neceseary, to make such Change in the management, as should to the interest of all concerned. These remarks were called faith by the fact that the stock of that institution had fallen 30 per cent withinthe year. Atthe election the reform ticket was defeated. The stock wasthen selling at 66, To- day it is quoted at 45 2 49,0 fallof 9 per cent, notwith standing that the institution has published a statement, showing the stock to be worth nearly par.

The gener] principle on which the banking system of New England has been conducted, and which has resulted, in the most uncxam- pled accumulation of wealth, are those which the fiscal agent, now proposed in Congress, is likely to enforce on all sections of the country, viz. to confine institutions to the wholesome rule of discounting none butshort business paper, and requiring absolute and bona fide payment at maturity. The rigid enforcement ef this rule has been found, by experience, to be of the most beneficial effect on the business of the country. The effect has been thus described by an eminent and highly intelligent merchant, in the case efa New England Bank, where the rule was rigidly enforced for upwards of a quarter “It induced and compelled its dealers te carry out the rate transac: usiness, not on upon his own capital, and thus his own hort credits and quick returns were the charac- This is the secret of the superior prosperity of the New England Stetes over all other sections of the coun. try. The general manner in which banking has been conducted, has not allowed the inhabitants to stop prot ducing real wealth in order to speculate in the fairy cas- tles of bank paper. The provisions of the new fiscal agent, pruned of the defects which we have alluded to, will go a great ways towards the induction of the same principles throughout the Union, end consequently prosperity ef the whole country.
