We have brought up the proceedings of this bo- The balloting for Solicitor of t'le fifth District, it will be observed, resulted in tho eh'ction of Col, Cad. Jones, Jr., of Orange. So Mr. Pcindexter has leave to retire. The Attorney- Generalship has been given lo Spier II. WhitH' her of Hilifax county. He was opposed by the former Attorney General, Gen. L>aniel, Mr, Shep pard the Senator frotw W’ake, and Kraggf member of the Commons from Northampton, W'o know nothing of iMr, Whitaker’s fitne^ for the of- ficr. T'p-’ru have been three ballotiir^ for a Uni ted Slates Senator in place of (draham, without inak ing a choice. The Democrats are divided befweca Messrs. Brown and Saunders, and the Whigs, voto for Graham. From the list of votes, it will be set ti the Western Democracy in both Houses go for Saunders in a body, except C.'ol, Bower of Ashe and Mr. Calkb Euwin of Mecklenburg. Mr EmviN n^ay liave very good reasons for voting against Judge Saundeis ^ but we feel sure there is no political question on whicii the Democracy of this County are more unanimous, tlian they are iti favor of Judge Saunders for Senator. And such, we think, is the choice of the Democracy through out the State; yet we hope our I'riends, rather than have any difiic.ulty in the matter, will make a com promise, and take up a thiid nian—say Witliavi II. Ilayicood, Jr. No reports have been made by the Committees upon any of the impoitant measures of the session, consequently the most interesting proceedings as yet relate to the elections. (jrov. iVIorehead iias sent in a li;t of ihe furniture bought for the pa.laco in’Raleigh, (the log-cabin ?) at wiiich we will give our readers a peep next week. It shows how’ a log-cabin man h'forc election carries out cabinisuv afler election. The Register receiveil by yesterday’s m trl, gives three additional balloiings for Senator; the last. of which stood — Brown 63, Graham 55, Saunders 45, The Whigs seem to be leaving Graham, and uniting on Saunders. The bill to authorize the Merchant's 13ank of Newbern to issue bills of tiio denomina'ion of $3, passed its third reading in thu Senate on the Sth, by a yote of 32-to 15. - Congress.—'I'he two Houses of Congress assem bled at \\’’ashington on 5th instant.' In the Senate, no quorum being j)resent, ihey adjournci* to the next day. The Speaker took his seat in the Housi, and a large portion of the members w’ere present at the calling of ihe roll. A Committee to wail on the President was appointed, and *Mr. Adams gave notice of his intention to olL-r a resolution to rescind the rule of the House forbidding the reception of j abolilion petitions, d’ije Htjuse then adjoiirned.— 1 Wu hope lo get t!ie President’cj,message in time for i our ntxt.

'riirotjgh the politejiess of one of our members I of Congress, we received by yesterday’s mail, a co- P3* of .vir. 'PvLKu’s message submilt'jd to Congress on the Gih insiaiit. We have barely glanced at ii:? contetiis, and can only say, that we are pleased witii what we have read except the recommendation of t'lo K.^c.hetpjor scheme, which Mr. Tyler ag.tin urges in l!»e siiongtii terms. Of the fiiHinciul con dition of tlie Government he says : ‘•The hahmcc in the treasury on llie 1st of Janu ary, 1842, (exclu.sive of ihe amount deposited with the Slates, tru^t funds and indemnities.) was §4J30,• 4S3 ♦jS. Tiie receipts into Ilie Treasury during the three first quarters of tlie present year, from all sources, amount fo .“5«*26,G1G,593 78; of which more than fourteen miliions w'ere received from cubtoni-s anil about one million from the public lands. The receipt.^ for tfie fourth quarter are estimated at near ly eight miliions; of vvliich four millions are e.xpec- ted from customs, and three millions and a lialt’ from loans and treasury notes. The expenditures of the first three quarters of the present year e.'iceed tu•enty-^^ix millions; and those estimated fur the fourth quarter amount to about eigfit millions ; and it is antjcipaled tliere will be a deficiency ol* half a mdlion on the lirst of January next; f*ut that tlie amount of outstanding warrants (estimated at ■'^SOO,- 000} will leave an acUial liafance of about in the treasury. Ainoii^ the expenditures of the year, are more than eight millions for the pubhc debt, and >j;G00.000 on account of the distribution to the Stales of tlie proceeds of sales of the public lands.” W e are giad to see the PresiJent recornrncnd, as he does in the strongest languagOj that Congress should refund to Gen, Jackson the amotmi of the fine imposed upon him by Judge Hall at Nc>v' Oileansin 1813. This is a debt of gratiiade the nation owes the vv’ar-worn patriot, and we hope to see this Session of Congress discharge it. Upon the whole, the message is a pretty good one; and our readers wil! say so too, we think, %Yhtn th'V reiid V
