After m- Bryan, of North Carolina, resumed ha sest, I Mr. CAR50N, of North Carolina, rose and said, tiit he deeply regretted that his honarabla Wlleague and friend, (Mr. B.) should hivi made it necessary for him to trouble the Committee with a few re marks iif explanation or tne vote ne should give en the proposed amendment; ipeftt in favor of the proposed ametfdmefili that NortCarbtine woold be more in wired by an Increased duty Upon the items lAthottd toe stricketi out thaabr anv true, Sir, it would be the Imperative duty of every member from that State to vote for the amendment. But my colleague should have confined his remarks to the district which he represents, and permit ted those representing other parts of the State, to think and act with respect to the interests of their constituents, ss to tbem mlrht seem most sdvissblCv . Sir, 1 shall decidedly vote against striking out the proposed Items, and for reasons which, with mer kr equally forcible with those which operate upon my colleague ; but I give this vote with I perfect understan ding, that upon the final question I vote against the whole bill, immaterial what shape it ma) be presented In. But Sir, if we are comficlled to swallow this bitter dose, 1 wish to make it as pala table as nossHJe, and by way of txterieran will vote to retain molasses. And further. Sir in the general dispensation of bene fits which is proposed, and held out, by the friends of thie bUl m the Jijfofrfa Syittm," st it is called, the interests of all psrtsof tbetJnioa, and every class of the commuaitf ougbl f be looked' to an eqrjaljuiw done to aliJSow str I, asK mr eollearoe what other Items are there 1 tbtj bill frem which Carolina can expect any bcnenis- except tnose jproposeu io stricken out, and perhspe brie otherTthat of Iron f My colleague is no doubt cor rect as retards the seaboard of N.

" Here, Mr. B. expkined. and said ;.. His colleague was mistaken a regards hemp, he had not in tended making any argument upon tbat subject! be hsd intended confining his remarks to the ibgle item of molasses He begred leave to assure his colleague, that he wee opposed in Xoto lo the t ariff on prrocrpbr. j 1 Mr C. resumed and said, he had un derstood his colleague es having spoken renerallv in favor of the amendment of lne gentiemao trom. Aaine woico was io strike from the wll botn hemp and mo Issses, snd he had thought that hemp was necessarily included. He was graii fled, however, to learn that the argument was intended to be confined to moUsses.

Carollns M Yankey rum.M No one knows better than my colleague that the whole seaboard of our State is Inundated with this poisonous stuff, nor is it confined to the seaboard only, for it is thrown in vast quantities all over the Southern country, and has found its way into as many parts as hss their wooden clocks, and wooden nutmegs. Now, Siri if this duty is im posed upon molasses, it will have the. ef; feet to stop in e degree the distillation of lankey rum, and in tbe aame ratio that the quantity of rum is diminished ao will the demand for domestic spirits (whiskey ScnTreasedTndVInhisre-1he only sdsantages .to be calculated on by the farming community of North Carol! - ' appears, Sir, from calculation, or rather estimates which hav been made, that there, is about eight minions of gal lons "of rum annually dlaulIeJ from inv jportedmolasses.Now Sir, if this distil- ntldn"'bfTdrbtgil'mstert''was'empped, there would be sn increased demand for the spirit distilled from domestic material, to a corresponding - amount of gallons; and if any benefits are to result from this M Amcrirm Syilen" (as it has been cArta tened,) I can see none to the grain grow, er, except those which may result from such an increased duty upon molasses as wffl prevent the) distillation of Yaokey ...... i k.i t..ir.ly a'r.. j a tr.;;e exL-i.ve market for whiskey. , Hvcolleaetie haa asked, bin but liked it rather In a vein of humor, for really I cannot think him serious, whether we should sit here legislating for the protec tion of a noxious liquor, which tends to degradation ( ' meaning whiskey. Now, Mr. Chairman, I appeal to the candid de cision of my colleague which Is the most noxious, poisonous and degrading in ita nature, eood rye whiskey, or mean Ian- key rum! 1 will not do my colleague the Iniustice to liy, ?ir, that he is in fa vor oi the ftrotetting or American Sy a tern, but if he should be, what is there that demands in a more eminent degree hWfiHfitttnv cere jtban the health of bis constituents f-Jotbing,fitr.AfiLio thai endTtill uport bitrr n sober serbuaneas to banish Yankey rum and lubstuute good whukey. - Mr.-C.

I am admonished to conclude by the politeness of my friend from Ohio, who had the goodness to yield me the floor to answer and explain to my colleague. THE PRESIDENTIAL CANVASS The Richmond Enquirer contains the following estimate by a correspondent of the results in tbe several states of the ap oroachint-oresidential canvass.
