Indeed, opon the application of the doctrine of strict construction of tho Constitn tlon. the powers of the Executive would be much -more enlarged than any contended for by Mr, Strange, or by the presses of the State which co - Incidewltb Lim. . - We are surprised that Congress has not legisla ted on this subject, if any doubt about the mat ter bu existed In the "minds of our Senators. We. cannot, however, see how any donbt can exist iu so plain a case. But perhaps our legislators love precedents: and conflicting authorities, because fhey afford opportunities for tho display of learn ing Id debate. ' This passion Is not of recent birth. Oa one point alone, a icarnca jsogusn judge m to- many years ago, that there were one hundred and seventy authorities, or more these authorities wrrt subsequent doubled Id number ; and this too, when a WgUwtive enactment of three lines would have put controversy to rest, forever ! V We respectfully suggest to our learned jurists, that when they give an Opinion on any subject In tended to bo read and understood by the people at targe, they ought to give the translations of all quotations !o law or other Latin. A largo por- tionofthoso who are to Judge the matter and by jwbose firn decision the case must abide, know nut Jliue of Classical iBun or oi uie jargon some times tolerated in law parlance. , C ?

Oraium U delivering a course of teclnre before the Historlcai Society of New York. Tils sixth tccture, on the British) Iu vaslon'of NoHh Carolina, was delivered on Thurs day last. Tbe New Tork Herald says : : Mr. Gra ham entered Into a minute disquisition on the stirring events which form an important feature iu thai history of the Revolutionary war, and drew a a moot lucid picture of the condition and manoe- vrcs of the armies nnder the respective commands of Lord Cornwall! and Oeneml Qreen, up to the period of llio surrender of tho British general to Washington. In giving an epitome of the cam paign, tho lecturer depicted, In glowing nnu Rr vent language, the glorious result which ensued from the patriotic aud sur?be?ful efforts of the people of North Carolina and other States. A fob report of LI address appears e'a.'wherc." CONGRESSIONAL. On the progress of business in Congress, tlje In telligencer of Saturday says: ' We cannot re- prei a H'eling of pleasure as often as we renmrk a lorg list in our columns of private bills passed by either Houso of Congress ; for wo know well that tho vigihuice of the several committers is quitu sufficient to protect the iptcrests of the United States, and there Is slight danger that any unjust claim will bo permitted to pass, through both Houses without attracting the attention of those conversant with its merits. On the other hand, the acal nqd personal efforts exhibited by numbers of committees wUq.havc c,hargo of par ticular bills, evinces the difficulty of obtaining a ning fW even those moat meritoiioua. There fore, when they succeed, we are always pleased, tp think that some few, at least, have been reliev ed from tl)o pains of want and suspense, and have at last obtained that restitution which, perhaps under another system th,ey miht lon before have been gratified with." THE TREAFIT.V REPOUT. A report I tho Sen clary of tho Tresnry has been made to c.ngres. We are Indebted to the New Yoik Courier and Enquirer for the following synopsis of this able Slate Taper: " The receipts for the year ending June 30, 18o2 were-from Customs, 847,339 320; from sales of pnblic lands, $2,043 233, and from other sources 1345.820 These added to a balance of 10.911, 643, In tho Treasury at the beginning of the year, make thenggregate receipts 500.010,031 '.

The Queen of Portugal has recently issued a decree, by whictt all the Ave and four ppr qn,t. stock of that Kingdom is converted into three per cents. This is equivalent to repudiation that is all right under a monarchy but in a Republic It is a very shocking affair, as the monarchists of Europe declared, not long ago. AMERICAN CQLQNIZATip.X. The Btrd, of the American Colonization. So ciety has been In session at the City of Washing ton, and adjourned on Thursday night last. On Thuriday tho Board waited upon the President of the United States and the Secretaries composing ihoCabiuet, who received them most kindly, wit, their assurances of a favorablo Interest, in, the great objects of the Colonisation Society. The cause of African Colonization never looked more cheering to its friends than at present. WISCONSIN. The Legislature of Wisconsin organized on the l'Zth inst. uov. tar we II, In Ins Message, gives a glowing account of the present condition and pros pects of that State. Wisconsin owes no debt, and tho treasury is in a sound condition. The re ceipt aud expenditures for the last year balance within the sum of $940; and of the lotul disburse ments ($134,593) for 1852, rather more that one third was on account of liabilities incurred previ ous to January 1st, 1852. ST. LOUIS. A review of the commerce of St. Louis, for 1852 has beep published in the Missouri Republican "St. Louis," says the Review, "has grown, into her present proportions without the aid of a single mile of railroad or canal, and w ithout even the removal of an obstruction in the natural chan nels through which her commerce flows; her prospeiity I tho result o( a futv years progres sion ; and when tho present contemplated works are finished, ou.r metropolis will enlarge her bor ders with more rapidity than hs,s yet been wit nessed." "If," tho Review proceeds, "we would retain the trado under which we have prospered, wc must connect by railroad and Plank road with the points from which our commcree has receiv ed it support." NICARAGUA. A corrosponp"nt of the N. Y. Herald, writing from Ban Juan del Nort, Jan. 2, 1853, says that (he Belize, or British Honduras has been eleva ted to a colony, Ihe superintendent into a Govern or, and a constitution glvep to Ibe people. This province extends almost scros the continent, and with tbo recently created colony of the pay Is lands, foreshadows the sequel to the Mosquito Protectorate. If this report bo true, it clashes with tho Madison doctrine, recently reiterated by Mr. Ci, in the y. S. Senate. Deficit for at yc?r $1,651 til'3 11 The estimated expenditures for the current year include the redemption of the public debt to tho extent oT 85 322,93 or the loan or 1843, anil SI 276 510, of the loan of 1847. The entire deb) on the 1st Jamiasy 1863 was 805,131,692. exclu sive of 45,009,000, yet to be Relive; ed to the State of Texas. Tho Secretary alludes to the increas ing foreign commerce of the country, as contribu ting 'for the timo to a sudden expansion ol its revennc." this increase oi revenue is, io uis mind, and we think so too, injurious to our Own gjeat manufacturing iptcrests. Among these the iron interest Is cited ; the importations of that ar tide alone having been In 1845 -102 723 tons, with duties 81.794 784 In 1851-2 - 435 149 ' 3 272 812 The foreign munufneturer having larger means cud cheaper labor, has forced down our market and crushed our own iron interest, and now, be fore our manufacturers, cpn recover. Is reaping the bencfjf of the enormou demand for iron in the Cnited Slates at advanced prices. There has beeil an increase' in the exports of To bacco, llice and Breadstuff, but the aggregate value of domestic exports last year w ere 24,849 5J.r less t!)3ti the previous year, leaving a general balance against us of $40,142.000'for the last fis cal year iu our foreign t rude. The coinage of the U. S. Mints for the last year is shown to have been 852,404 5C9. of which only $817,310 was In silver and $51,020 94 in copper. 1 lie ccr.etary, shows mat tho M.ycr coin now lq, the couutiy is gradually lck&cning, and urge the passage of a bill ns adopted by tho Senate last year, tor "a new Issue of silver coinage, of such reduced weight as will allow it to circulate w jtli tho gold coinage of estnbli.-li,ed, weight ad fine ness." The use of Mint Certificates is also itcom mc nded, which would produce a savir:g of $350,- 000 or 3400,000 annually to tho government. Such certificates to be for sums of 100, 500, 1,000, 6.000, and $1,0,000 each, and paid to depositors at the Mint, and receivable for all government dues Such a government currency, based upon gold would facilitate materially the payments of duties at the Costoni House; and can meet with 110 ica sonablc objection. The operation of Coast Snrvcy Department are alluded to in flattering terms. The increasing duties devolving upon the head of that Bureau induce the recommendation that the Franking privilege be extended to it. J he Light House lioaid, established only a lew months since, arc now iro!ccutiiir, on a liberal and extended scale, the objects designed by Con cress. Un tho whole, the Ueport is a satisfactory one ami urges with arguments that cannot be set aside the true American system far adoption by Congress a system that shall encourage American labor and foster American enterprise to such an extent as will more fu,Hy developo the great resources of THE WHOLE COUNTRY. There arc numeroas and lengthy statements ac companying the Rexrt of iho TrVasury, whicl will no probably be m,ode public before the doc ipuents arc printed for the usu of Congress. Among these Is a valuable Import on the Fishe rics, prepared by Hon Lokknzo Sabink, last year. Mr. 0. is now Ihe successor of Mr. Tiiomp son, in the House of Representatives, for Massn chusetts. The elections for Parliament, in consequence of tho change of Ministry, were over, and the old members bad been re-elected.

A disastrous engagement had taken place near Lake Scutair, between the Turks and Montenc grins, in which the lormer were defeated with tin loss of C00 killed. ' CUBA. There is some talk of a difficulty between the Qovcrnmcnt of Great pritatn and the Cuban au thorities, on account of the expulsion of a Brit ish merchant from St. Jago de Cuba. Dreadful Shlpwrecr, Eighty gl? Lives Lost.
