KAIiEMSM KEISTS2B ANB WOBTH 'yet But. sir. I would inquire vho, in voting fr the usual appropriation of the last jear, imagined he was giving an extra fund to be employed in this or any other extraordinary way, and to the fitness or propriety of which his attention was in no -way directed ? The money might have Ucen granted, but I insist that it could only be fairly aqd properjy known by making tne direct request, and asking a specific appropriation for this particular object 5 thereby affording the representatives ot the Peonle the important privilege ot looking into and discussing, in r advance of legislation, all the questions of expe diencv. of principle, or of national policy, that this or any other unusual disburse- i,.int ka cnnnneil to involve! and -not leaving to them the almost useless task of merely criticising the expenditure, .rt; iiava hpon made from a fund created without any intimation from any quarter of an intention to apply it to such a purpose. When an event occur that it really contingent and urgent in its char acter, such as could not have been espe cially looked to and provided for by Con- f;resj, then the President would be clear y justified in meeting any expense that may accrue, out of the common standing contingent appropriations ; but it cannot be said that the determination to institute negotiations with the Emperor of Japan, the Sattan of Muscat, or Kipg of Siam,or to apply for a renewal of the treaty with the Emperor of Morocco, partakes at all of this character these were objects presenting time for deliberation, and were certainly of sufficient importance, even from the large expenditure to which they have given rise, tohave been presented directly to the consideration of Congress. Butsir, the principle for which I con tend is sustained by the previous exam ple of our Government, in relation to this very treatyWith Morocco : for when, in 1791 it was proposed to make pres ents to the then new Emperor,4n oiilar to obtain his recognition of the treaty which it is now intended to renew, the : money was not taken bj the President from the contingent fund,or ordinary appropriation for intercourse with, that Power, but a specific appropriation was made in a law passed for that particular purpose. This is an example, sir, worthy of all imitation, and which I sincerely wish had been followed in the instances to which I s am now adverting. But, instead of this safe and truly republican doctrine of specific appropriations gaining favor at this day, I can but perceive the manifesta tion of a disposition to lose sight of this powerful safeguard against an improvi dentand unauthorized expenditure of the treasure of the nation. Say, if you please, that all is vet well, and that we have, at present, a sufficient security for the faith ful application of the public money, not in the cautious specific provisions of our laws annronriatiriff it, but in the sound and prudent discretion of those to whom ; we entrust it : "Would it, I ask, be wise to rely upon the continuance of such a security ? Yes, sir, all may now be well, ani) yet that assurance should not induce us, as legislators, to look the Uss anxiously to the means of future safety. Those may, hereafter possess the Executive rule in our Government, whose ambitious pro- pensities. Or whose sordid love of money, may lead them to construe not only liber- all y, but most mischievously, their power over such portions of the public treasure as may be placed in their hand, without strict legal limitations as to the objects of its application ; let us not, therefore, et an example of blind and implicit con fidence, which may tend hereafter to en danger or destroy the liberties of our country. , COMPLIMENT TO MR. CLAY. The subjoined handsome compliment to Mri Clay, is from the Speech of Mr. McComas, of Va. recently delivered inthe House of Representatives, on the Land Bill : Mr, M'Comas said, that the measure hiUbeen called Mr. Clay's land bill; the attention of this House has been especially calJed to this subject. Why call it Mr. Clay'a land bill? What has Mr. Clay to dtff with this subject anymore than any 0 ther citizen of the United States? Is it intended to make a party question of this matter?! it intended to settle the prin ciples oMhe next Administration, by the strength of the popularity of Andrew Jack fon and Henry Clay, both about to retire to private life Mr. Clay a candidate for no office, and the President having filled the measures of his country's glory? He said tue name of Henry Clay might induce some men to vote against the measure. He said he had never supported Mr.Clay for any office, yet, as a Western Virginian, he was always proud of him as one ot her most talented sons. Though he did not agree with him in some of his political measures, yet he alwajs admired the lof ty bearing of the bold generous Kentuck ian -though he , may be overwhelmed by the wave of party, yet, when these party times shall subside, and the merits of this man be calmly reviewed, posterity will enroll his name on the brightest paes of American history: He will be regarded a one of those rare spirits that can rise with thef crisis, and soar above party feel : ing and selfish ambition, and cast oil on the troubled waves of his distracted coun try. Black lines might be drawn around his name, yet a glorious resurrection a waitsjiim. He will live imperishable in the affection ! every notary of civil liber ty throughout the world, while there are many whose ephemeral existence will go down, with the bbiDg Ude 0f pQifUc, , tUsJdu of oblivion 1 WASHINGTON COUNTY.

From Ite New York Courier and Enquirer ': The great trial of speed between the North and South came off yesterday on the Union Course, L. I. Never since the great race between Eclipse and Henry, has the sporting world been so much exci ted. Confident of iuccesi, the partizaas of the North had for some days past been most liberal in their bets in order to in duce the Southern sportsmen to back their favorite steed, but without- effect. The Southrons understood their game? and played it well. Flushed with the antici pations of an easy victory the backers of the Northern-horse at length were incon siderate enough to propose large odds on the event. Three to two were freely of fered and as freely accepted, and bets to an enormous amount were consequently made. John Bascoinb, a horse of great Southern celebrity was the selected cham pion of that part of the Union, whilst Post Boy of equal distinction on the turf, was the chosen favorite of the Northern Sportsmen. At an early hour yesterday, the steam boats were crowded with vehicles of every description, from coach and four down to the humble cart, and with pedestrians of all sorts and sizes. I he road Iroin Brook lyn to the race course presented a most lively scene, and from the hours often to one a livingstrpam appeared to pass along it. The number of spectators on the course is variously estimated from fifteen to twen ty thousand, and the scene was one 01 ine most exciting ever witnessed. The back ers of Post Boy were prodigal it their of fers to bet, and found ready customers. At a few minutes before two o'clock the bugle sounded a call for the competitors, and the steeds were brought to the start ing post. They both appeared to be in perfect condition. John Bascomb is a bright chesnut, and Post Boy a dark bay. On the tap of the drum they started in beautiful style,and at a rattling pace. Post Boy taking the inner track. At the end of the first half mile Bascomb took the lead and kept it during the whole heat, coming in at least fifty yards ahead of his antagonist. f Neither of the horses appeared the least distressed. The backers of Post Boy still retained confidence in their favorite and offered trifling odds that he would win the suc ceeding heat. Their opponents were not slow in accepting their offers, and bets to a considerable amount were again made on the event. The time of running the first heat was seven minutes, forty-nine seconds. At the end of thirty minutes, the hor ses were again summoned by the bugle to the starting post. Bascomb made a false s'art and ran nearly a quarter of a mile before he was stopped, and being again placed, at the usual signal, both started in beautiful style Bascomb talcing the inner track and leading. Never on any occasion was a more beautiful race than this seen. Throoghdut the whole 4 miles the horses were close on each other. Oc casionally Bascomb would increase his speed and W'ave his rival a few lengths be hind, ljut by the free application of the whip and spur, Post Boy was urged to his former position, and although repeated at tempts, were also made to push him ahead of Bascomb, they were also defeated by the consummate skill of the latter's rider. The last mile was gloriously contested. Bascomb still continued the even, easv. fox-like pace with which he set out, Post Boy close at his side,' strainins every nerve to outstrip his adversary, but in vain; they reached the winning post almost neck and neck, but Bascomb still being ahead, was declared the winner. The period in which this heat was run was seven minutes, fifty-one and a half seconds. The age ofthc horses is rising five years both arc beautifully formed, but Post Ioy appears most powerful, Bascomb was rode by Willi, the groom of Col. John son;and Post Boy by Kirkpatrick, of great celebrity on the Northern course. It is generally admitted that a more beautiful race was never run on the Union Course, and every body, except the losers, and they bote their reverses with great phil osophy, left the ground perfectly satisfied with the days' sport. CONGRESS. IN SENATE. Tuesday, May 31. Mr. Kmg, of Ala. presented a memorial from the mail contractors on the great Southern route, . 1 - . . Roing-10 snew, nx in contequence ot the Inriisut war, the larger part of tht ir property has been destroyed, and pruying Congiess to consider whether the peculiar circumstances of their case did not juau'v tome interposition. A bill appropriating a day for the annual meet- ot Congress, was taken up. The bill, as reported, provides that Congress shall meet on the lt Xlondiy of November in every year, and that the day of adjournment on "the 1st session of every succeeding Congress shall be the 2d Monday of May, after the com mencement of such session, unless both branch, es shall order otherwise by joint resolution Amotion was unsuccessfully made by-Mr. Porter to amend the bill by changing the day for the commencement of the annual meeting from the 1st to the 3d Monday of November. The bill was then ordered to be engrossed in its or.ginal form. The bill to regulate the Deposites of the pub lic money was taken up and Mr. Webster spoke at length, and, after he concluded, Mr. Calhoun moved the reference of the bill to a select Committee i f nine, which was agreed to and the following were appointed the Com tnittee Messrs. Wright, Calhoun, Webster, King of uucnan:.n. snepiey, L.cgtt Hendricks, Ewmg of Ohio. " - An amendment was laid on the table by Mr. Webster, and ordered to be printed. It looks to a division ofthc surplus revenue among the Slates. 0 HOt?SE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Boon, from the Committee on Public Lam.s, reported a bill to amend the act grant ing lands to eerlain exiles from Poland. The bill v as read twice, anil Mr. B on moved that it be engrossed fdr a third readwg,as it made no further appropriation, and did not re quire to be committed. Mr. Granger opposed the engrossment at pre sent, until the bill had been further examined. He had information, he said, that the grant to tbe Poles had been converted, by them, to the purposes of very improper speculations. They had located their lands upon unsurveyed tracs which had been improved, and rendered valua ble by American citizen, who had been in this mannir, unjustly deprived ; by them, of their posession the preemption laws not having tsn yet extended to them. Mr. Uouldin followed on the aame side. He condemned the original grant of 36 sections of land to the Poles while the Government were so tardy in their bounty tojhe old revolutionary soldiers, nd to their destitute citizen. He al so understood lhat the Poles had located their sections on both sides of a river, and embraced' therein the improvements of the early settlers j in that country. Mr. Bouldin's remarks were arrested by the arrival of the hour assigned to the special order.; The House retimed t,he consideration of he " bill to change the organiz tioii of the post Of-j fice Department and to provide more effectually for the settlement of the accounts thereof." ' f The question being on the motion to reconsi-j der the vote by which the rate of postage was; reduced, from the rate proposed in the bill, a long debate took place. ! Mr. Mann, of New.York, appealed to the Houe to close the discussion and come to the vote f The Post Haute Bill wan next in order, and he earnestly hoped that the House would act ort that bill to-day. Otfr amendments to the pref sent bill were to be offered, and if the discussion was continued, the committee would be9 under the necessity of asking another day. i The debate was con'-tnueU at length. ? At half past two o'clock, the question was taken, and the motion was decided in the neg ative eas 66, nays 81. j 1 ue House adjourned. . ' IN SENATE. Wednesday June li The Ch:dr laid before the Senate a communi cation from the President Of live United States, enclosing a voluminous reply from Sam'l Gwy;n, a Receiver of Public money in Minsissin-ni. to charges which had come out against him in the I testimony which was taken by the Committee on Puulic Lands two years fttfo. 1 he President states that these charges were officially comrttu- mcated to Gwyn by the Secretary of the Trea sury and the response has come through the sume channel. Mr. Benton moved to priiftthe documents. Mr. Calhoun moved to refer them to the Com mittee on Public Land. ! There was a discussion of some warmth and a good deal of spirit, although of limited inter est, preference to thu subject. Some attacks were made on the senate, on the Committee on Public Lands (existing at the time) and: on Mr. romuexier, the Chairman of the Committee ; and on the other hand, the Senate, the Commit tee and Mr. Poindexter were vigorously, ably anil successfully defended against these imputa tions. It w;is considered, however, by some Be- tutors, that it was not a correct course for the Sen ite, without invesligatio'i, to print the re (tponse of every individual who m-iy be charged, n a general enquiry into abuses, with a partic- pation in them. The charges made agiins Mr. Gwn, it ws.a insisted, were meidly export tes- timony similar to that taken before a Grmid Jury in criminal cases, and coind not be leceiveu as evidence to substantiate imputations of guilt, without subsequent evidence and investigation. I he debate continued from the time of the meeting of the Senate'until half past 3 o'clock. In the course of the discussion, Mr. Wialker stated that from information received by i him, Mr. Gwyn had probably departed this life, as there hftd been a second hemorrhage from the lungs, from the wound received by him during the recent duel. It is said the following amendment offered by Mr. Webster to the Depos te Udl, will be re ported by the Select CommMee : Sec. Jltul be it further evaeUd. That the mo ney which sli3ll be in the Treasury of the i Unit ed States on the first dy ofjamury, eighteen hundred and thirty seven, reseriiM ml lions, shall be divided among the several State in propo ti n to their respective amount of po pulation, as ascertained by the last census, and accordit.g to the provisions of the 2nd section of the first article of the Constitution ? and the Secretary of the Treasury shall pay the s ime to such persons as the several States rray author ize to receive it, in the fo;ovi-g proportions, and at the following times, viz : one half on the first day of April lb'37 t one quarter p-utoii tlie 1st day of July, lbo7 ; and the remainngi quar ter on the 1st day cf October, 1837 ; and all States which shall receive their proportions ac cording to the provisions of this act, .vh ill be ta ken and understood hereby to pledge the pub lic faith of such Slates to rep-iy the same, or a ny part thereof, to the United S ates, whenever Congress shall require the same to be re-paid by any act or acts wnich shall requ re such pay ment, rateable und in tquil proportion, Irorn all the Stales which has received the same. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Hunt, of N. York 5 asked leave to make a statement to the House on a subject of national importance and; in which h s character, as a member ot this body, was imj lic tied. Oojections were made, anil Mr. Hunfimoved a suspension of the rules, remarking jt hut he wished lo bring before the lioue a document which he held in his hand and which he toui.d on liia table this morning. After vanous proceedings and much; confu sion and disorder, the motion lo suspend the lules was agreed lo Yeas 140, nays 36. Mr. Hum then called the attention of the H. use t a document purporiinz to be printed at the G'obe OHice, contoning the report o Mr. PiiicKney s Committee., on Abolition, and the Yeas andlNays on the adoption of the three resolutions Reported from the Committee. The first Resolution declaiing that Congress had no Constitutional power lo interfere with the sub ject of Slavery in the States of the Union, w..., n this document, stated to have been adopted by a vote of 138 to 46. f The forty th negative were given, and among1 them wus his'owu name. He also alluded to the f.ct that the Globe had recently published an article holding up these forty-six members to public odium. At Mr. Hunt's request the clerk, then read from the Journal the yeas and nays on the above ltesolu. lion, from which it appeared that only nine members voted in the negative. - He did not know whether this 'misrepresen tation was wilful, or whether it was a gross and blundering error. Ineitherct.se, the document not having been ordered by Congress, the Pub lic Printer was alone responsible JfuritJ and he took this as the only means for dissemin ling a knowledge of the fraud or error, as it might be. Many members rose and asked leave to vindicate themselves from the misrepresentation nbove noticed by the gentleman from New.York, in his own case. The tact is, that, by Home blunder, the Yeas and Nays on Mr. Whittlesey's appeal were sub stituted for the true vote on the Resolution, and the error was, no doubt, purely accidental Many proceedings followed, and, after twice taking the the Yeas and Nays, the House refused to allow any more explanations on the subject, by a vote of 98 to 82 not the requisite two thirds. 7 I Mr. Heister moved to suspend the rules for .the purpose of ttking up for coni lerntion the joint resolution f.om the Senate- fixing the day for the adjournment of Congress, Mr. Hawes moved to lay the motion on the table, which was negatived, Yeas 81, Nays S9. The motion to suspend the rules was lost, Yeas 84, nays 81 not tvo-thirtlt Thursday. June 2. The Senate proceeded to consider the bill prohib ifmg deputy postmasters from receiving or transmit ting through the mil to any State, Territory, or District curtain papers therein mentioned, the cir culation of which, by the laws of said State, Terri tory, or District, may be prohibited, and for other purposes. Mr. Grundy modified the amendment he had submitted, so far as to restrict the punishment of de puty postmasters who may violate the provisions of this act to simple removal from office. Mr. Calhoun then moved to amend the third sec tion of the amendment so as to prevent the with drawal of the prohibited papers. Negatived. The question recurring on the amendment of Mr. Grundy, the yeas and nays were ordered. There was some discussion on this amendment between Mr. Morris, Mr. Calhoun, Mr. GrunJy Mr. King, of Georgia, and Mr. Walker, when The amendment offered by Mr. Grundy was a greed to. The bill was reported to the Senate as amended. Mr. Morris then asked for the Yeas and Nays on 'the engrossment of the bill ; and thev were ordered Th? question being taken, it was derided as follow.

The Vice President then took the Chair, and gave the casting vote in the affirmative. So the hill was ordered to be engrossed. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The enjrrossed bill to change the organization nf the Post Uffice Department, and to provide more ef fectually for the settlement of the accounts of the same, was read a third time. After some remarks from several members, Mr. Speight called for the previous question. The Speaker said the main question will be " Shall the bill pass?" cutting off the motion to commit. The previous question bavins been seconded Yeas 67. the question Shall the bill pass 1 was put, and carried in the affkmative, without a division. Mr. Adams asked the consent or the House to take up, at this time, the Resolution to print 5,000 exira copies or tne report ot the Select Committee on the subject of Slavery. A motion was made that the House adjourn, and the House aujotsrned. ' ' IN SENATE. . Friday, June 3. The time of the Senate was principally occu pied upon the hill to ex'end the charters of the flanks of the Dfitfict of Columbia ( and to con solidate the Bank of Washing'on and the Patri otic Bank.) It was debated to a late hour, but not finally disposed of. Previous to the adjournment of the Senate, Mr. Wright, from the Select Comnvttee riied on the subject, reported a hill concerning the surplus public Monev, substantially embracincr the principle of the amendment proposed by Mr. Webster, bee Wednesday's proceedings.

The bill from the Sentte to make the annual sessions of Congres hereafter commence on tKe first Monday of November (instead of December) in every year, and to make the first session of every Congress terminate on the second Mon day in May, was tken up, and, by the aid of the Previous Question, finally passed.
