Every steamship which has crossed the Atlantic for a considerable time past, has brought us most expressive intelligence of great popular movements, of varied character and distinctive developments, but all exhibiting one uniform tendency, the overthrow or remodelling of existing institutions. The heavings of discontent in England, manifested in the form of chartism and radicalism—the equally sigaificant indications of feeling in Scotland, exhibited in the controver sies respecting the ecclesiastical establishment—ihe still more marked and striking ebullitions of popu- lar sentiment, presented in the Repeal agitations— are ail indicative of the deep-rooted, perva- ding existence of dissatisfaction with the present order of things—an irrepressible sense of the pressure of great and ruinous evils—and a resolute determi- nation to effect a change of some description. In Ireland, where the popular elements have been for the longest period in a state of effervescence, and where the feeling of the people is more easily ex- cited, the revolutionary symptoms are much more generally and vividly apparent, than in the other portions of the United Kingdom.

He abhorred them. Is Mas- sachusetts tired of the Union’? Is she so much more holy than the South, that she is afraid of con- tamination? He would not, he dared not, give vent to his feelings. : 3 “ 5 Mr. Bares said he did not desire to agitate this subject at all—he only asked that the resolutions might be laid on the table and printed. ere some interlocutory remarks sprung up as to the slispogition to be made of these resolutions. Mr. Carrrenpen hoped that no objection would be made to laying them on the table, and let the subject go quietly along. r. King said he made none. | Mr. Sevrer desired the same disposition to be made of them as has heretofore been made of simi- lar resolutions by other Legislatures. ; Mr. Bacsy hoped there would be no dodging of this question; he wanted none. It was time to speak. The Senate had been silent too long. These resolutions were in the highest degree incendiary. What becomes of the question of printing? Prestpent—lIt is open to debate, and must be sub- ject to the vote of the Senate. 2 Mr. Baasy said he was in favor of discussing the question, and snould always be. Mr.Evans said if the subject was to be discussed, he should move to postpone the debate, unless the vote was now taken. _ The vote was accordingly taken. F Mr. Baasy asked for the yeas and noes, which were ordered. ea ey The question was upon the printing—decided in the negative, 26to 14. Messrs. Archer, Crittenden, Bayard, Evans, Morehead, White, Woodbury and sthers,voting in the affirmative; Benton, Buchanan, King, Wright and others, voting in the negative; the whigs rather leading inthe affirmative, and the democrats rather inclined the other way, but noth- ing decisive. ; Urrer Mississrprt River.—A bill was read twice to improve the upper navigation of the Mis- sissippi river. Post Orrick Rerorm.—Mr. Jarnacin asked that one thousand additional copies of Mr. Merrick’: 1ew post office bill, in order that they mht be distributed, to ascertain public sentiment. It was ordered. Scnoor or Navau Instruction.—Mr. Bayard’s Bill, tor the establishment of this school, was reaa twice and referred. Tus Tarwr.—Mr. Evans then resumed hi: speech. He first took up Mr. McD's objection, that the tariff of 1842 greatly increased the ourdens of the people. Here Mr. £. went into the statistics on both sides—[which itis in vain for me to attempt to give; and quite useless, if | :ould, as you have them all in the Herald ottice.) Mr. E. stated it as a broad and almost, or quite 4 universal principle, that in all cases the prices of goods upon which increased duties are imposed, tall, instead of rise, according to the theory of the honevable Senator, (Mr. McD.) Oompetition re- duces prices. In free trade, manufacturers take sood care never to overstock the market. In the case of a tariff, profits are greatly reduced—price: tall. “In free trade, foreign manufacturers have ii ul their own way. Mr. Hotwes then offered a resolution that owing to the great quantity of important business before it, particularly on the subject of the Western Wa- ters, that the Committee on Commerce be allowed to appoint a Clerk at $4 per day. 4On the vote being taken there appeared to be no quorum, R Mr. Horxiys moved that all the Standing Com- mittees be allowed to appointa Clerk. This was lost—Ayes 48—Noes 60. a Mr. Evmer moved to amend Holmes motion, by adding ‘‘for,80 days.” Mr. Hotmes moved to add “for 60 days.” The latter motion was lost. Mr. Evgr’s amendment was carried. ‘The question recurring on Holmes original resolution as amended, ir. Tompson moved that the Committee on Indian Af- fairs should be allowed aclerk. They had several very important matters before them. 2 ir. WintHRor said the two subjects were entirely dis- tinct. Mr. Campnezt of South Carolina asked if the Indian Committee requesced it. Mr. THompson said that they had two or three very im- rtant matters before them, but to b» candid with the jouse, he did'nt think the Committee ought to have a clerk, but neither ought any other Committee The work should be done by the members. ‘ Mr. Ratnavn said, they bad gone on allowing first one Committee, and then another to haveaclerk ; where was thisto stop. By and by all would want to have aclerk ; he thought this was to be a retrenchment Congress, there- fore he would lay the soaree on the table.—This was carried, Ayes 70, Noes 57. Ongcon Tearitony. Mr. J. C. Inorrsott, from the Committee on Foreign Affairs made a report about the Oregon Territory. It will be remembered that by the Treaty between this country and Great Britain, thére is a joint occupancy of ths Oregon Territory; and that before this can be dissol- ved, one party must give the other 12 month’s notice of its intention to do so. A resolution requiring the President to do so was offered some da; go by Mr. Ropeat Da. Owen, and referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. That Committee reported a resolution to-day to this ef- ect: “Resolved, That is inexpedient ior this House to act in any manner at present, in relation to the joint occupation also torholding the Hartford Convention, and sending me- morial to this city who did not dare enter the of Congress. He asked these representatives who had sup- ported the rule from New Hampshire, Maine, Pennsylva- nia, and New York, why they should yield now. He was appealing to the West, when he was knocked down by the jpeaker’s hammer. ‘Mr. Ronent Westuror, of Mass., said—We have been occupied many days, sir, in the morning hour, except when it was buried fora time under the great Western wa- ters, and for a brief period to-day, under the Rocky Moun- taing, with a discussion of the second great principle of ci- vil liberty I have been astonished to hear the doctrine laid down here, that the right of petition involves no cessity on the part of government to hear those You might as well say that the writ of habeus corpus in- volved no nenessity on the part of the officer to whom it was addressed, to enforce it, or that the liberty of the press only involved the right to strike off certain publications ond not the right to issue and abies them. Aad sir, if this doctrine were true, the right of petition would be the poorest, meanest, most miserable abstraction thatever was dignified with a high sounding name ; and the soon- er it is expunged from the catalogue of civil rights, the better, that the people may know what rights they really have to depend upoa. Now, sir, it matter not the least to the argument what the subject matter of a petition is that you reject. ‘The question is can we by arule resolve not bo receive petitions on any one particular subject. If so then on some one day we can deeide to receive none upon some other subject, and on 22d day decide to receive none on another, and on a 8d day we can resolve not to receive petitions upon any subject at all It resolves itself, then, sir, into thaw. Have we aright to prescribe to the people upon what subjects they shall, and what they shall not pe- tition forfor upon. Sir, such a doctrine would be subversive of the inalienable rights of the people, The gentle- man from Tennessee says that this House stands to- wards the people in the relation of parent and child. Sir, we do not stand thus, We are not the parents, masters or guardians of the people ; we are the servants of the people,sent here to do their will; and to undertake to restrain their liberty sir, is to say, we are the masters and you the slaves. You must obey our dictations. It pre- e representative in the act of instructing bis con- constituents; the servant instructing his master. is the operation ofthis rule? By it, the petitions of tens of thousands of citizens have been turned away from your doors; and the resolutions of 6 or 6 sovereign ave been thrust back in the face of their resentatives in this Hall. And if as many States as as! for the remis- sion of Gen. Jackson’s fine, age or all the States of the ile: petitions here the result would In its principal, it says come one, come all, but you shall not beadmitted here. Sir, the day jose - hand when this will no longer be tolerated by eople. exilimen sey thet we have the powertorefurtheuope- titions that may be, but have we the right? We have the power tosay aman shall sit here who is not 25 years of age, but not the right to do that, and the power te de many things ‘at we have not the right to do. Mr. Win | . 2then showed that in 1789 the State of Vir- giniadeclar ‘hatevery freeman has the right to peti- tion or apply to the Legislature for redress of grievances. And Judge Tucker declared that this wes the lenguage of a free people asserting their rights whilst the langaege of the Constitution savored more of the language which was used in asking for favors. He also con- tended, Ist, that the right to p1 it petitions to the Government, including the right to ave those tions received, was an old orfginal, inl Tight of the people of Great Britain, allowed and acknewledgen for a time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary. 2d, that the framers of the Constitution, understood, acknowledged, and appointed that right; 3d. That the refusal to receive petitions in certain cases I move, sir, to strike out all af ind add that it is expedient to act in that matter at this tim and hot-headed politician, who would press a ject strenuously, when it was evidently out of place, ind out of time, with indecorous taste, or ill-timed zeal; but there ss such a thing as temperizin ness. Accordi to the treaty of 1918, sir, this Cerritory of the Oregon is to be jointly occupied by us ind by Great Britain; but by giving twelve months notice his treaty can be dissolved, and the joint occupancy be erminated ; and sir, this is what we ought to do at once Now, sir, what is the extent of this Oregon Territory. he southern boundary {a the 24th parallel of north lati. ude; and the northern boundary is the 64}th parallel of atitude ; a distance of 860 miles from north to south, and in average breadth of 650 miles. Thus it contains nearly 100,000 square miles, or 300,000 000 of acres of land. ‘This Cerritory in one fourth larger than the whole of the thir- een original States of this Union. And thus the greatest revolution that the world ever saw was for a Territory ess in extent than this; and if the recent reports from hat country be true scarcely of less intrinsic value. Now, sir, let us go a little into the history of the iegotiations that have taken place upon this subject Here tollows more facts ano 4 tie: croc! vetween Great Britain and tho United States. In Octo- | in the British House of Commons was an exception ae reared tapas Prog ter, 1518, a year before we obtained the Spanish title | to the general principles, and general practice of iaetitente utah cary auttons: cit heres ve entered into atrea'y with Great Britain in regard to | that body ariing out of circumstances peculiar a 2 i ta Pi ‘ba ah * ere 18 & SUI | iy portion of Territory of the North WestCoast of North | to those cases, and furnishing no justification lus, the value sinks greatly. Home prices, also, for the rule under consideration ith. That there is America, which might be claimed by either government, shat the same should remain open for the joint occupancy of the citizens of either without being molested ; and thut welve months notice must be given before this joint oc- cy could be terminated. About six years afterwards, wr in 1824, an attempt was made to negotiate a seperate voundary Ii Mr. Rush, our minister to London, was «therised to make an offer of the dist degree of North la- itude as the Northern boundary. This was refused vy Great Britain. He was then authorised to offer he forty-ninth degree of North latitude. Great jritain also refused this, But that government offered to run the forty-ninth parallel of latitude to the tocky Mountains, and thence down the Columbia River o its mouth ; which eee, them down to the 46th parallel north latitude. That is, they would have 8} degrees of the seaboard of the Territory ; and we should only (degrees. In 1826, two years after this, in the admi ration of the gentleman opposite tome, Mr. Adams, the vegotiations were re-commenced under Mr. Clay, as Se- retary of State. And this latter gentleman, in his letter o Mr. Gallatin, then in London, of June 19, 1926, says hat it is not eonceived for a moment that Great Britain 1as or can make out even a colorable title to any portion the North West Coast. Not that her title to it is bad, or is disputed, but that she has not even a color of a title ! Now, so profound a statesman as Mr. Clay, we can’t sup- pose fora moment, would make these aseertions without waving thoroughly examined the subject in all its ‘amifications, and having well understood the histo- cy of the whole matter; and aubsequent events srove that he had done so, and that Great Baitain actually aever had the color of a title to the O: m Territory. Now, sir, I can not only show that Great Britain hay no ‘itle to that country, but that the titleof the United States thereto is as clear and well defined as that of any gentle- man on this floor to his farm or plantation. J have shown you what was Mr. Clay’s opinion and assertion in relation o this matter ; and yet before the ink was dry with which he proved that decleration to our Minister in London, the ‘ame Secretary of State, inthe seme letter to the same ninister, authorizes him to trade off, (1 beg pardon, sir, hat is not the diplomatic name,) to negotiate—to cede iway some 300 or 400 miles along the Pacific Ocean, that vasour just right. He says to him, you are autho- ized to propose the amendment of the third article of he Convention of 1818 and the extension of the bounda- yline on the pareliel of 49, from the eastern side of he Stony Mountains to the Paoific Ocean, as the vermanent boundary between the territories of the wo powers in that quarier, And he added, “This is our re depreciated, abroad as well ashere in thi country. At one moment they (foreign manufac urers) can flood us with their arucles—at the 1ext withhold and prosune a scarcity—so thai trade never knows what toexpect. A tariff keep: prices steady. Suppose anew market here is opened tor the Senator’s $40,000,000 of goods—under hi (ree trade system—what 1s the consequence 1 Why of course, foreign manufacturers, in anticipation 0, a great demand for their goods, immediately raise their prices. The prices will rise in such ai :vent. Increase the consumption and the demand, and of course prices will rise. And the Senator’: iow duties would have the tendency to increase the demand, The great principle of trade is, thai urices are always regulated by the law of supply anc femand. The bare discussion here, not long since, of the question of adding a duty of two ceuts pe pound on coffee, caused the price of that article t tall two cents; and as soon as it was decided that he duty would not be imposed, the price rose «gain. 2 o’cLock, ». m.—Mr. Evans is still going on with his speech, which he says he has deliverec aere twice before. So, therefore, if you wall turn vack to your old files, you can find it all, and can Beate much of it ax you choose. ‘here is a quizzical rumor about town that Pop Emmons has been appointed to France. Pop says he doubts it, as he has heard no intimation of it. No further rumors about appointments. The President was sick yesterday. Jan, 293—Hatr Past Two P.M.—Mr. Evans is still pro- ceeding with his speech. In the Kingdom o! Great Bri tain during the last year, the whole amount of her manu factured commodities was £173,000,000. Of which there was consumed at home £126,000,000. Leaving for expor cation £47,000,000, ‘Thus it is apparent that the main ob- ject of British manufacture is their own consumption. staking us the sport of their manufacturing powers. The aext objection of the Senator (McD.) is the wnequal and injust Operation of the tariff of 1842 upon different sec- tions of the country. Thus increasing the price of consemable articles at home. In reply, Mr 3. stutes that on the whole—in the average— n point of fact there had been an actual reduction of pri ses ; and not only sv, the prices of their own cotton, for »xample, had increased jere he quoted the prices cur- rent ut New Orleans of Cotton, to show that prices has advanced. Therefore the advance in the price of cotton nust produce an advance in the price of the manufactured sods. ‘The great object of all this discussion is to en- tance the price of cotton. But ifthe honorable ser (MeDuttie) enhances and augments wares of cotton, must submit to an increase ofthe price of goeds. He cant have it both ways. ‘Thirty-two senators are now in their seats, and the gal leries are nearly empty.) r. Evans is now going on at great length to prove that it is better for the people on the whole that consu: mers should employ manufacturers at home to supply ‘hem with their articles of Keronim: tm than to exbly t broad. In the latter case those abroad make the profits, and enjoy the benefits thereof, while our manufac- urers are idle. It is competition whioh reduces prices f we employ manufacturers abroad, the necessary cons quenee is. that our manuf ices will he higher, and con- nd the senator's cotton will be ot course higher. About one quarter of the cotton crop «8 probably consumed in this country. Mr. E. 48 now going on to exhibit the various prices o/ sotton at different months. There is at present an excess of aupply of cotton in England, now about 440,000 bales heing an excess of 23 over what there was last year abundant reason forthe assurance that the framers of the Constitutien would have been the last in the en- tire world to sanction those refusals, er to consider them as furnishing an exemple for on Americen Congress to follow. These four points the hon. mem- ber illustrated in detail, refuting fully, Mr. Rhett’s argument that the right of petition consi merely in es- sembling, drawing up a petition and sending it here. He said that at one time, 16,000 women went in procession to the British House of Commons, headed by the wife of an honest brewer; and that the doors of the House were thrown open to them and not from a mere feeling of lantry either. That the question ran so strong at one time in England that the ple were divided into “petitioners” on one side, and “ abhorres” ortheother. He also spoke of the celebrated case of ‘Thomas Skinner and the East India Co. in 1668, and the resolution passed then by the House of Commons, that it is the inherent right of every freeman to present peti- tions to the House of Commons, &c,, and the first work donc by that House was to form a grand committee to re- ceive and dispose of petitions. In framing the Constitetion the article of amendment on the inherent right of petition propored by -Virginia aa before stated, was opnosed ay onthe ground thut the right of petition already existed, and that it was such an inherent self-evident sacred right, that it never would be questioned or touched. But others in the Convention of 1798, said that on the very acconnt of its great ie, it was better to give it additional force, and Mr. Benson contended that it should be so well ted it could never atterwards be Government. The only two rules ever passed by the House of Commons on this head was, one that no petition should be received relative to any bill for taxing the people while the bill was actually pending, but the Sight be received ‘at any other time; and the other, in 1713, to receive no pe- tition for any appropriation of money not recommended by the crown. Mr. Bexser reminded him that this last was made a standing order the House. Mr. Winturor then stated that Mr. Hatsell, who was pronounced by Mr. Jefferson,in his Manual, to be the very highcst, best, and soundest authoritory forthe history aad law of Parliamentary rules and proceedings in reference to those two very rules declared that there were exceptions, and then he goes on to say in words, that it is po ex- ageration to say ought to be inscribed in letters of gold upon every pillar in this hall; and upon ascroll of Silver suspending from the of the eagle above your head, sir, these are the words, ‘' For to receive, and hear, and consider the petitions of their fellow citize duty incumbent upon them above all rules and orders for their own convenience.

And what van i this was done for? Mr. Clay, in his Itimatum by saying that it is’ offered spirit of concession and compromise Now, Sir, con- ion is all very well in its place; it may be pro- luctive of many very valuable results; we may win vy kindness whi e cannot accomplish by force.
