Senate Business—Nominations_The Exehe. quer—The Courier and Enquirer_The ‘Tariff, In the Senate, this morning, Mr. Bento» submit- eda resolution, which was adopted, calling on the Secretary of the Navy to report what steps, if any, have been taken to carry into effect the resolution of September 11, 1841, to purchase for the use of the navy domestic water-rotted hemp. The resolution introduced by Mr. Tarran, from the Committee on the Library, to distribute to mem- bers of Congress, who have not received them, cer- tain copies of the land laws and opinions and State Papers on the public lands, to bedistributed by them in the most advantageous manner in the States they respectively represent, was taken up for considera- tion. After a discussion of some length, and some amendments, it was adopted. The orders of the day were then taken up. Mr. Cray remarked that the particular order of the day was his resolutions on retrenchment. He proposed. to postpone that order till next Monday for the pur- poee of taking up the next order, being his resolu- tiens to amend gthe Coastitution by restricting the. vete power, which motion was agreed to. Some convergation then took place between Mesers. Bavand, Auten’ and Bucwanan, a8 to the priority of business. On motion cf Mr. Cray, the District Bank Bill was postponed, and the Senate: proceeded to the censideration of Mr. Clay’s joint resolutions to amend the Constitution, by vesting the appointment of the Secretary of the Treasury and Treasurer ofthe United States in the two Houses. of Congress; by restricting the veto power of the President ; and by rendering Senators and Repre- sentatives ip Congress} ineligible to civil appoint- ment by the Executive of the United States, during the whole period for which they may be elected. Mr. Cray observed that he had considered the sudjeet in referenee tothe amendment suggested by the Senator from Virginia, with regard to extending the time ter the reconsideration ofa bill vetoed by the President of the United States, and had come- to the conclusion of accepting that modification. His resolution on the subject of the veto would, as modified, be tothe effect thaga bill vetoed at one session should be deferred to the next eucceeding session, when, if again passed by a majority, it should become a Jaw, the objections of .the President not- withstanding. Mr. Berrien then took the floor, and spoke in support of the resolutions until the usual hour of adjournment. There was then a short executive session, during which the nomiaati on of Mr. Archi- bald Randall, as Judge for the Southern District of Pennsylvania, was referred to the appropriate com= mittee. A large number of nominajtons are now awaiting the action of the Senate, some of which have been before the body for more thantwo menths. This delay is unusual, and to be accounted for omly on the supposition that Mr. Clay is undecided as to his course of action. There are some half a dozen no- minations which he is desirous to have thrown out, and among the most conspicuous 1s that of Mr. Ty- son ; but it has probably occurred to him that un- reasonable and factious rejections might be requited by the removal of some of his partizans, a great ma- ny of whom are now in lucrative and responsible posts all over the country. To save them, and se- cure the influence of their offices in his behalf, he may perhaps forego his animosity to such nominees as are unexceptionable in every thing but their sup- port of the administration of President ‘Byler. If this shall be the case, every nomination now before the Senate will be confirmed ; but if his hatred or Jealousy shall prompt a different course, it isn im- possible that Mr. Clay and his office-holding friends will be more surprised than delighted at the conse- quences. The fate of the Exchequer is still in great doubt. At the preeent time two-thirds of the members of the House would vote for the bill reported by Mr. Cushing ; but it is impossible to tell what the power of the leaders on beth sides, and the discipline of party, may effect before the question is disposed of. It is eupposed that an effort will be made to rally the whig party andengraft a decided credit feature: upon the bill, with a view to repel democratic sup- port. If this shall be accomplished, the measure will be defeated. For although, in such a shape, a mejority of the whigs might support it, there would be opponents from the west to ensure its rejection. A very slight modifieation of the bill would secure the votes of a large portion of the democrats in the House in their present state of feeling. Whether Mr. Benton will be able to centrol them, as Mr. Clay has the great body of the whige, remains to be seen. The correspondentfof the Courier and Enquirer The Lancet —Tie Weather—U. S.

But whatever were the causes that had laid his mind in ruins, and driven him forth an outcast on the face of the earth, we can never forget the air of inexpressible misery, which had settled itself on the once fine face of the wander- ing poet, and proclaimed ‘the power of that heart- ache, (which pee charoeiet 738 Sopepee nthe in the erson Of a very elevate oung man, whose pro- who took ithed proceeded 59 the Long Inland Deeligeatal tay hapieicisiceminan was a flaming Bank, at Brooklyn, and obtained other notes in | reg—added so much to his own heighth that such exchange.

The opposition candi was Isaac R. Har- rington, who has occupied the mayoralty for the last year, he was called the liberal candidate, and liberal enough he was encouraging iniquity and winking at crime. Geo. W. Clinton received the nomination at a mass meeting, and was then waited respect. To show how utterly regardless this writer is of the truth of his assertions, he states that Gev. Poindexter spoke of the letter at the mess at Brown’e, before Messrs. Botts, Coeper and others, and in the lobby ef the Senate; whereas, Gov. Poindexter has not been at Brown’s hotel this year; he never spoke of such a letter in the presence of either Messrs. Botts or Cooper, and has not been seen in the Senate but once since the writer in the Courier and Enquirer first uttered the falsehocd in relation . tothe letter, and that was during the delivery of the speech of Mr. Clay. The only knowledge or ramor of such a letter came from the Courier and Enquirer in the first instance, and the only reason the matter is now noticed is simply to show how little reliance can be placed by the citizens of New York, in the correspondent of that paper. The subject of the Tariff is now before the Com- Tue Cawrser.—The ridiculous reports. spread abroad by drivellers in this city, of disaflection to the President on the part of some of the members of the Cabinet are wotrus.

But an objection to specific duties is, that deceptions can be practiced im quaatities as well as in valuation. No report will probably be made to the House until three weeks more have elapsed, and when it is made, it will create a great eensation. According to the returns of the Marshuls, made in 1840, there were produced in that year thirty- five millions and eight hundred pounds of wool in the United Stater, while nearly half that quantity wasimported. On the contrary, while the woollens in the United States manufactured reach nearly a hundred millions, the amount imported does not equal more than about six millions, Most of the wool is entered under eight cents per pound, and is duty free. The farmers are, therefore, much lese protected than the manufacturers. House of Representativer-—Retrenchment and Reform. The House of Representatives proceeded at once this morning to the farther consideration of the re- port of the Retrenchment Committee, for as this was private bill day, a desire was expressed that no portion of it should be converted to other purposes beyond the morning hour. There were many rea sons to urge this course on the House, but it may suffice that there are near & thousand claims to be who are so constantly in the habit of thronging te public places of amusement, and elsewhere, upon every trivial occasion In the recent affainat Boston it was astonishing that forty or filty persons at least were not killed. And unless some competent per- son is appointed by our city authorities, to examine and pronounce upon the construction of some of our large pablic places of meeting, we tee! certain that we shail have one or two frightful accidents to re- cord before the year iaout. It wil! be of little avail to tell the weeping widow, when the mangled re. amains of her husband is laid before her, that he was a thorough-going politician, and always attended public meetings as a matter of principle. Many of our public places of meeting are fearfully unsafe. Let all be warned in time.
