" NEW JERSEY. 'M-sstav ' The Legislature of New Jersey met on.Tuesday last. We have received a copy ot Gotfe fiioFPenningfdn'rtlessJgT to the Houses. The following is whai heaavsof tho outrase nernetrated bv the; Van Buren party in Congress on the risnts of the State. The spirit and tone oftae Governor's language are such as suit the occasion: "In the issue of thit great ttruggle new Jersey nas a oeep inieresu tier citizens have a common destiny with the New Jersey hat a deep interest Her I - : rest of the Union: but while they share lit as revolutionary and subversive of the rv ' t. .

The popular indignation hat been awakened a feeling In the breasts of thelexnreaied in msn rlarp. hm hv l ir(,(. great body of the People of thit State, which a sense of wrong, deep wrong, in- Aided without an apology, must always inspire. The present House of Rcpre - mcascre, by ebargirtle b'iate aush4ri "ibtcrto. What bat Con- that tubiect, kt it be settled between those o&ccrt and their conatitueuts. It it suOicnt to command the rcpert of j Conzrru in the first instance, that lite cotnauissiont presented are genuine, and in form t erceable to the law a of the State. That thit proceeding wat a vio lation of all principle and wag, cannot be made more manifest than by the fact that it it the first instance of the kind to be found in the parliamentary history ol the country or the world. During the three weeks in which thit question was debated, no precedent, either in the re cords of this or any other country, could be furnished to justify itr 1 shall out agaiu enter upon a defence of the course pursues m granting me commissive.' That rroccedini bas been fully explain edn a former occasion, and it has twice received the sanction of the Peo ple of the State. Further to discuss would be an insult lo that expret'ion oi public opinion from which thcie it no anpeaL But 1 go beyond this point Whether differcnect ol oi4nion mkht ex ist in reality, or be feigned for party purposes on that question, Congress can not, w ithin tho legitimate exercise of its authority, go behind the teal of the State They must recognise that or there can be no return ol members from the State at alb After that it recognised, and the membert take their seats, then, fur the first time, the subject is under the con trol and direction of the House. It has uniformly been to held in the House ol Represantativet heretofore, and it must and will be so held hereafter. "The New Jersey case will, in til if ter-times, be considered an invasion the rights of one of the sovereign of the Union, for the purpose of securing the power ola party, fortunately lor the country, li bat had the effect to open the eyes of the PeopIov to the actual con dition of their Government, and taught them the daeger of confiding their la tercstt to men who have lived too long in the sunshine of Executive patronage. The subsequent action of Congress in E lacing individuals, without warrant, and cfore investigation, in the scats, and that loo while the commissioned mem bert were absent under the authority of the committee, taking testimony to sub stantiate their claims, and the final de rision of the House by a strict party vote, without hearing, or even to much at looking at the evidence, presents scene of violence and wrong wholly with out precedent or apology. If iho treat- ; mcnt which Piew Jersey has suffered had i been received at the hands of a foreign Power, war must liave been the inevita ble , consequence." But the hat been wounded in the house of her friends' and a resort to force most have involved not only foes but friends. She hat look ed to peaceful remedies, and made her 1 appeal telhe jutticeand-patriotiinrrof the country, and all the signs of the times 1 give unerring indication that the appeal hat ont been in vain. A great principle I I II J L nau uccn iutiuco, wnicn auecica ante ! all the Statet and all the people of the ! States, and it waa eminently proper that .i : i i.i t f't ."I f uieir siicnuon suauiu oe caucu to ii in a manner adapted lo secure their most de liueimc L'uusiueiBiion. "The subject, I am happy to say, has awakened a lively interest throughout the country.-Nor hat it been confined to any party. Many of the friendt of the Administration have disapproved the whole proceedings at Washington. In deed, all men who look beyond the pres i em struggle, and nave a desire to see I peace and order prevail, cannot but view ent struggle, and have a desire lo i very :ounaauon ol representative g v j eminent. Several of the State Lamia lol tures, with a spirit worthy of enlighten- j ed freemen, have boldly denounced the I measure as an infrcngement of tho rights I of the Statet, and declared their deter- assembles of the People in various parts of the Union but I recur whh special gratification to the solemn protest of fit J ty thousand of Iho intelligent freemen of Cut while we du'y appreciate these grateful cxpresiiott of sympathy, let me remind you, gentlemen, that we have a solemn duty to perform. To us, at cit izens of New Jcrsry, tt commuted in a special manner the vindication of her rigitia, anu ii ocromcs every jcrscjinaa ta embrace the only mode ptetcribed by . the Constiiation to express hit hone.t indignation and aiteft the sovereignty of hit State. The citizcrt who could pat- tivcly consent to see the seal of hit State, - which it the emblem ol her tovercignty, prostrated in the dust, may justly be pronounced unworthy to enjoy the pro- : i. ? z.r . iccuon which ii ensures, n is crsiuy- ing to believe that those who have thua violated our rights ire Ikely to be de prived of the power lo inflict further wounds on the Union ; but, should t like encroachment be attempted oncer any administ ration of this Government, it will become the duty of the legislature to convene an -membly of the People ta consider measures of security and prvlcc Hon." The remainder of the Message ts de voted lo local Slate interests. The Gov ernor recommends abolition of imprison ment for debt, where no fraud it auspecU ed. " - Gov.
