Perhaps the mnjority of no Congrcs ha been moro bitterly assailed and abused than this, even by its own friend a well as foe--yet it b the only body that ha assembled bare for many years, that ha had honesty nd independence enough, notwithstanding dilBcultic such a have never before existed, to carry out, o far a it Cpn.titu. tional power extended, every principle and every promise- ever avowed even in tho heat of i most excited political cdntost. It is the only body that has fulfilled, and more than fulfilled, all promise of "retrenchment," so Often made by all parties, but never before performed, and which ha thus trenched upon-its ewn reoltngs and perquisite. No other Congress ha transacted nearly the amount of public and private buainesa that tin's has doner Labor, bard and taiturul laoor, baa been the word and the practico in all its Committee since the first day of it asmBUge.

Those who have witnessed the firmness with which the various dif ficulties of tho extra session and of that which followed, were met, and the patriotic perseve rance with which renewed eftort were made to save something to the country out of the wrack which had been made by the raHlilessne ot those in whom the People had trusted, will never doubt the correctness of the Whig principle wnicn ua taintd them, and which thoy in turn o well illus trated. The country, I repeat, will yet render to this Congrcs full justice. IIasd Monxv Tmxs. At a- constable' sale a 1. ... Id.ii larvi.

Y. by which many houses were destroyed and buried and about forty persons killed ! It presented a scene of great hor ror and desolation. A similar calamity happened to tbe same place in la&iKal. otar. Settlement or th irrrLIt War etw een IIavti and Cuba. I -otters from Port au Prince say that the Spaniard, having first taken two Hayticn ves sels by way of reprisals, th quarrel was settled thus. The Government of Cuba demanded that the Hayticn frigate, the Satisfaetion, should fire a salute of 21 guns in honor of the Spanish flag, displayed on tlie vessel captured by her, with the same ilag flying at her mainmast head. This wa accecdcd to, on the condition, which wa accept, cd, that the Spanish steamer, should return the salute with the Hayticn flag on tho main. The salutes were accordingly cxehsnged at eight o'clock on the morning of the 6th, after which the steamer took her departure. The vessel ta ken by the Spaqiards, are to be given up. Rotary Knittinq Looms. An ingenious mas ter mechanic, of this eity, has invented a rotary knitting loom, which possesses the power of knit ting, narrowing, widening to any desirable pat. terns, and with most, astonishing rapidity, all kind of knit goods. It i truly a wonderful ma chine, and will soon be put in operation. The capitalist will find in thia. machine a rare .chance for profitable investments Boston Mail. , EmbLUI.

'Ifis a'somewhat singular fact that the property purchased by Gibbon, in Switzer. lurid, with the profits ol his history of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, has fallen into the hands of a gentleman who expends a large sum annually in the pro mulgntion of the very gospel which his pre. decessor instduouly endeavored to under mine ; and that the press employed by Vol taire at Ferney for printing his blasphe mies, is now used at Genera in printing tbe Holy Scriptures.

It has become spojucb.a matter of course to, make, professions of gratitude" for public favor, that 1 am not without opprehensioji such, professions, front ruo will be regarded as a mere form. But called, as I have been without any nolicitution of mine, to assume tho" responsibilities of so distinguished a station, in the service of North Carolina, !! is but a faint expression of my feelings to diM&thathank for this mark' of your conBcTenco. Thetigh oppressed by a painful distrust of my abili ty to' do the half of what my aflectipn . for iho State would prompt ma to undcrtaka in her beliair,"stni-1 belie vi iiisftty dtity not to decline ybur nomination. I would that ( had more experience and greatercapaci. ty for the patriotic work. . Such a 1 have hall be brought to It without reserve, Our State enjoys, as ahe deserves,' an enviable reputation for honcbty and . diaintcr.Qsted-. ncss. In her devoliou .to liberty and tho Union, she nas bceo second to none. For submission to lawful authority, a reverences for laws and order, and a goneral regard for personal rights, I do believe tlere is. not such anoihor people in the world. These virtues, white-, they distinguish the character of the Slate," do ul the "same time urnish strong motives for fearfulness in her-pubHe agents. I trust it may be in my power to shew my own appreciation of her partia!. ty, by always regarding the statio-.t assign, ed to rrw as an instrument to advance her welfare. And if, in the order of -Provi. dence, it should be my lot to accomplish any great good, 6r to assist others in accom plishing it to prevent any serious evils to our common country and to North Carolina in particular, or to aid others in preventing them, I shall hefeaAer rejoice-more that the good w.ork was done, than I shall that I did it, and macli more than I now can that I have been chosen by you to attempt it. On tho other hand, should it bo my mis. fortune to fait altogether, and to lose ot. the close the confidence whiub has been so gen crously bcsto'.ved in the oulset,'my iriends shalhnot find a rcasert for my failure in tho lack of zeal to don.l my duty to North flnrolina- nor will mv enemies be able tO attributo it in nny degree, to a violation 01 previous fledges j for bcyona sucn os my known political principles have authorized you fairly to infer, I am bound by no other pledges whatever. I do not affect to be ig uorant that my election to the Senrtto was made by (he Democratic party; and 1 should spurn the thought of deserting tlie "princi ples of that party, ufter having beoo chosen to fill So exalted a post for the very purpose of helping to sustain them. I am" myself heartily and conscientiously a Democrat. It is the common lot of public men to en counter calumny and misrepresentation That would seem to bo a tax imposed by freedom upon patriotism ; and I am not so vain as to expect to go free. May I not, however, be permitted on this occasion. without censure from any quarter, to be speak the candor of all just- men against those suspicions which arc so common bt so well calculated -to weaken the bands of a representative 2 I do it more for tho of fice of State Senator, than for myself; not sd much to protect my own feelings as to fortify the station I must occupy- suspi cions, I mean, of the political iutegrity of a representative, begetting distrust, it he fails on all occasions tu range himself as a servile follower behind some great party j Captain ; and on the other hand, causing eVcn respectable men, to tneir own disnon or and that of human nature, tohink ol en. ficinga political opponent from the path of rectitude by pretending to anticipate his treachery, if ever he happens- to separate (romhis own party lenders upon any ques tion whatever. The dread of false clamors by selfish men of one 8 own side, and the mortifying enticements of flattery from tho oiher, springing alike from this unchnnta. bio source, constitute serious discourage ments to a. scrupulous and scqsitivo mind against accepting a public office whilst tu venal or to timid men in office, they are perilous temptations to swervo from the manly performance ofthcir duty. " it rrrast needs be that parties will exisj ; and per haps it is right and proper that they should I am not to be understood as depreciating party ; but only the malignant ingenuity with which It strives to fasten itself upon all and every question which can be presented This latterspirit is tip undeniable '"eviLT It makes us slaves to the bad passions not only of ourselves, but of others also. It destroys the salutary influence of a well regulated and patriotic party spirit, having for its ob iect the happinessof the people, and look ing to tho welfare of the country. Honest statesmen have always been more or less party men, There are, however, as there always must be, some questions which con ccrn our Government, above the rightful control ofrrrere-party questieai determination- of which, uprights minds, though attached to live same party, - may differ without crime in either; and Iegisla tors for the Union,, though belonging to op posite parties, may happen to concur with, out bnd faith - in . cither questions upon which it were as factious to adhere to a party, contrary t6 the convictions of one's understanding, for the sake of opposiUcm,aa it would be dishonorable upon others of t different character to desert party and to falsify the professions by means of winch he had been elevated to office. And it is not a dictate of prudenco in the people to rnul liply rather than t diminish the number of these questions T as it should be a principle of honor anions' those who aim to give a direction to the popular mind, to allow to their representative that there are some points upon which, being left to think for himself, he will be expected taact iodepeo. dently according to his own judgment f with out thereby ex-posing himself to be claimed as an ally by his enemiea, or denounced as a traitor by his friend Though a party mnir 1.' irno'A (neasarcs which le- gitimalcly connect themselves rth the ac knowledged principle! or party, anu oy uu - : il,. l,n.nn.7Dti ef ffitnampfl or politicians whomay feign live altogeth er above iu atmospnere, 1 oarp uwurj der the Stole to party, did fealty to tho lat ter make.it nceessary to- do it.; nor will I ever sacrifice my party to teij , snouiu it 00 in my power to do that. ' Relying upon the blessing of God on my efforts to serve North Carolina, and as her s:iior. fadherlnp-l to rieht for its own sake in public as in private life, I shall strive to deserve alike the confidence of the State and of the party by whose favor this high trust has been confided to mo.

McDuffie has. been makica an. dp". oueut and vigdrous speech iu the Seuato in n ... . . i n . . ... 11 .1:-.. J .U. opposition to ine rroicctive roney uuu u? NewTnritr, whicit he denounces ' as rob. bcry of the Agricultural interest, and espe. daily of the South. , These, assumptions are justified as follows: The Duties levied on Foreign Manufactures average (he ol: lodges) 4.0 per cent, and these raise the price of both Foreig'n and Domestic fubrics. Now our consumption of Foreign Manu. factures is 840,000,000, while that of our Domestio fabrics (including lints, boots, &c.) is nino times as much, or $300,000,. 000 ; and oa tho gross sum, or $400,000,. 000 the Agriculturo-of -the country now pays ata. of 40 per cent.or 8180,000,000; onc-tcnth of. it to the Government and the balunco to tho American Manufacturers of Cloths, Hardware, Shoes, Clothes, &c. Let us lest this grave assumption. Mr. McDuffie alledccs that tha oovnvir of anv Protected articTo pays a tax of 40 per cent nn it so that il would bo 40 per cent cheap. or if iho Tariff wero abolislitd. May wo inquire what il is that would bo forty per cent cheaper than now in the absence of a Ta"'K Name mo article, Air. nicuuine ! Will you venture to say Cotton Goods? We huvo abundant indisputable evidence that these tcere never before so cheap as they now ore that French prints recently imported for 3 1 J cents are now manufactured at Lowell und Manchester, and sold for 12s cents-vcry way equal in quality to tho imported. Oood blioelings und blurlings from Lowell are now ollLied in abundance at 5 to 6 ctntspor yard better thun we fyrmeiiy imported for 40, or could now in troduce so as to supply fully" and 'steadily our market, for 10. Just so of Woolens. There never was a timo when Ono Million Dollars would buy more Broadcloth, qunn. lily and quality considered, in our markets than at this moment. So of Coal, Hard ware, and all the efficiently Protected man ufactuiTs so even of Iron, on which a slight rise was to have been expected. . The fact is, thatall the efficiently protected pro ducts of Homo Industry arc lower than they were before the Tariff lower than they would be without it. Now and then a lot of foreign goods would be sold ruinonsly below the cost of producing them, and so interrupt and break down liomo industry, but the average price would bo higher with out a Tariff than it now is. Mr. McDuffie and the Free Traders, who reason from their theories in defiance of ascertained and notoriojs facs, are d.tily doceiving their implicit followers and tending to bring ruin on ihe Country. The Tariff is working just riglit; but it cannot do every thing still less in a minute.. It must have time to build up new branches of production to assure ntid diversify the industrial energies of the country. It is doing great good now, in shutting pul tho flood of foreign fabrics that woujjd otherwise inundate us but H has not yet created a Currency it has not fully quickened tho manufacturing interests be cause of the scarcity of money, the rotten ncssof credit, and te apprehended danger that its provisions will be repealed or great ly modified nest year. Still, it is doing a good work, of which the benefits will be come more and more apparent with every month of its stable existence. Why should it be so .vehemently, baselessly assailed?
