Friday, June 11, 1811. Considerable debate has occurred in the Senate on a resolution calling on the President for his rea sons for removing General Arbuckle from Fort Gibson to Baton Roue, but the whigs at last voted it on the table, there to stay. Of the merits of the question we know nothing, not' being acquainted with the fact3. Saturday, June 12, 1841. Mr Clay offered a resolution, the effect of which wouIJ be to cut off all the morning business of the Senate. Mr Benton opposed it ; he said it seemed to be an attempt to cut off the only source of obtain ing a right understanding of what was going on in This resolution was debated till on, this trifling occasion ! NORTH-CAROLINIAN. WM. II. BAYNE, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER. On DIt. We are informed in a private letter from Wash ington, that it is probable Mr Webster will not re main in the Cabinet long. It is further whispered, that Mr Badger is thought of for Sccretaiy of State. It is said he is quite popular there. The cause is rasily divined. The man who is a. devil at home, is almost certain to be a saint abroad. That is 5 o'clock ; Mr Clay admitting that it would have the effect attributed to it by Mr Benton, but said that that was not his object. The resolution was modified so as to allow one hour, and passed. Mr Ewing's plan of a fiscal agent was then laid before the Senate, and is as follows : PLAN OF A FISCAL BANK OF THE UNITED STATES. The Chair then submitted the following u. rnmmnnieation from the Secretary of the U1C I x way with Mr B-, he is most popular least known. " , where he is Treasury.

Mr Wise did not intend to do mischief by asking the rjuestion. If the independence of Ilaytiwasto be recoguised, he would have uo objection to the gentleman from Massachusetts being sent as Minister to that country, but he would not like to see Quashi Pornpey sent here. However, it was a matter of taste. Mr W. read from history, to show how the inhabitants of tho Eastern States, in former days, treated the negroes. They evu enslav ed the aborigines ot the soil, and sold them into the West Indies. It was now meet for Massachusetts and Rhode Island to perform some act of penance before God lor wrongs done to Guinea and the Indians. Tuesday, June 15, 1841.

To tell the people that those administrations had incurred a dbt of .30,000,000, without stating the whole truth, by showing the other side of the account.

It appears that nothing of moment was done to day, save an ineffectual attempt to reconsider the vote on the rejection of the 21st rule. Friday, June 11, 1S41. Mr Wiso, to-day made a tremendous clTort on abo'itionism. The lol!owing are a few of his re marks: T would say to my whig brethren of the North, introduce not your petitions ask not for dangerous and deadly mischief attack not our institutions, and do not compel us to defend them. You tell us that the North is pre judiced as to the right of petition. JVow, let me say that the Southern people have their prejudices on this subject ; on the right of property i ights secured bv the Constitution ; their sur- icction, and all the horrors of a servile war. T.rt ma ttll vrtt ihic business now before the House, is the most important the South can take up.

After a dreadful storm of words and the most vociferous fhoutrng, the previous ques tion was seconded, and tho question on llio re-consideratiou being put, was carried yeas 106, nays 104. !Now here was a dilemma. The House h.id elected officers, appointed staudiugs com mittees, etc., under the Rules temporarily adopted, and here the vole by which those Rules had been adopted, was re-cons idered, thus undoing all that had been done. Amidst a scene of great uproar the House adjourned. Wednesday, June 16, 184 1. In the House this morning, the Speaker sta ted that the resolution relating to the Cth rule, having been re-considered, thev were ex;i tlv where they stood prior to the adoption of that resolution with the amendment of Mr Aduns, striking out the 2lstrule. A long and noisy debate here arose on a point of order, which called forth much noise, and gave many members an opportunity of discharging their cargoes. Wr Wise wished to make a remark. Mr Botts I call the gentlemen to order. Mr Promt Yes, and I call order. The gentleman is there standing ou his feet. A whole volley of calls of order was here poured in, aud much confusion prevailed. In order to judge of the height of the disorder, I merely mention that a member who generally sneezes like thunder, did so several times and could not be heard. Mr Rayner, of North Carolina, then took the floor, and very politely intimated that, as 1 desirona that tha wrhiv nartv .liAnM sot u U I will on Thursday 1 ku.; r ' "7" -.i: LZ1 . nad "t length obtained it, he intended to of a Drinter the 7 I 7 I , t" , "CF""H keep it. antil he should be exhausted.

Whatever Mr Ewing had said m regard to losses, he takes cure to go back twelve years, instead of I the one year since this system begun. He speaks I the opportunity to publish it. After several ineffectual attempts to adjourn, it being 7 o'clock in the evening, the question on the final passage ot the bill was taken, and carried, as follows proposec a committee to arrange it in that way. Mr Web ster told the people at Richmond that this was one reat reform which the whigs were going to brin about, and this was the same proposition brought forward by the whigs last Congress. He waited to tee if ihey were of the same mind now. Messrs RJair & Hives, and Gales and Seafon were put in nomination, and thc latter were elected by a majority of 65. Saturday, June 12, 1841. Mr Graham of North Carolina, probably know ing no other way in which to make himself conspi cuous, has been at the House every day to take up his bill, to repeal the Sub-Treasury. To-day he was asked why he was so anxious about his bill when there was one from the Senate on the Speak ers table, as though the House must pass his bill and send it to the Senate, instead of considering the Senate's bill.

And when I again come back to my homo, And visit the fcenes where together we've strayed, Without thy glad presence I through them mu&t roam - Then thou wilt repose 'nfath tho cypress.trees shade. Then, farewell, my dear sister, the kiss that I take, Is the last thy anection on me can bestow. But ne'er shall its memory thy brother forsake, And deep is his sorrow that now be must go. But he'll visit thy grave whf re calmly thou'It sleep, And garlands of roses he'll o'er it twine ; In anguish he'll sadly and bitterly weep. And cherish thy meni'ry in Loves purest shrine. Clutha.
