He moved it be postponed until Mr. Stvart, (dem,) of Mich., thought that the bill was, by the action on it at the last session; lost, and in no possible way could it come up now as unfinished busi- ness.

Mr. Cnastary, (dem.) of Ga., moved that the resolu. tion be laid on the table—which was negatived by a vote of 72 against 90. Mr. Skxutox, (dem.) of N.

Mr. Cuneman, (dem.,) of N. C., said, as the President has promised to send in his detailed views of the subject, it would, perhaps, be proper for the House to wait until that time. He voted against the bill and did not wish to hear anything further—but as some gentlemen differing with the President, may wish to have his views more fully before them, he would suggest that the considora- tion of the subject be postponed for a few days. H Mr. Dunpar, (dem.) of La., said large appropriations are made in the bill for the improvement of the mouth of the Mississippi and its tributary streams, in which his constituents are interested. He voted for the bill in the Committee of Commerce, and on its final passage in the House. He thought the President ought not to have vetoed it; but he thought decent respect for the chief 1aagistrate should induce them to wait until the President shall communi- cate his reasons for the veto more fully. He moved the posponement of the bill til this day week—all could then act understandingly, and gentlemen determine whether they shall attempt to pass the bill notwith- standing the veto of the President, or whether they shall introduce another which will not be liable to the objec- tions which the President may assign. Mr. Werrworrn (dem.), of Ill., said that he supposed there was no individual in the House who could be in- fluenced one way or another by s message of the Prosi- dent, touching this subject. He would vote for the pagt- ponement; but he sincerely believed every man was pre- pared to vote ‘yea or nay’ on the bill. The subject is familiar to everybody. I; has been an agitating mat- ter ever since the organization of the government, and hes been debated on every stump. This being the case, he did not know why the House should not act as well now as any other time. He supposed that the message already sent with the re- turn of the River and Harbor bill, was nearly the veto | message; they had no right, then, to allow the President to send another message to be 80 considered. He would carry out the will of his constituents, and presumed every man would do the same, He would withdraw the motion to reconsider if any gentleman would state he is in doubt as to what he ought to doin the absence of the President's promised message, Mr. Taytor, (whig) of Ohio, asked the gentleman whether the bill contained any item for the improve- ment of rivers and harbors not heretofore recommended by the proper department of government. ‘The Srxaxen reminded the gentleman that general debate was out of order. Mr. Campment, (free soil) of Ohio, coneurred in Mr. | Dambar’s suggestion that deceat respect for the Prosi- vent required at least suspension of action uatil the «ecutive abalt have more fully communicated his views.

As was to be expected, a debate arose upon this ques- tio, ns the administration party are desirous that this affair yhall still be preserved among State secrets.

Fravk, came off on Tuesday afternoon, which was won by the mare in three straight heats. The time made was very good for this season of the year. The track was covered with ice and snow, which was so rough that the shoes of the horses had to be sharpened be- tween each heat. The weather was extremely cold, and few were out to witness the race: The gelding had the callin the betting previous to the start; but after the first heat great odds were offered on the mare. She took the lead with the word in each heat, and was never headed im apy part of the race.
