73 'correspondent of the • United States Gov.
'Otte 'says, 4 . the Chairman . of tke Committee of
'Ways and Means, in the House, Mr. McKay, re
ported several bills, making appropriations for the.
ensuing year; among the rest the civil, and diplo-.
matie appropriation bill, the Indian appropriation
bill, and a bill for the support of the Military Ace.
'deftly at West Point, which were twice read and
'referred. Mr. McKay also offered several rose.
'lotions, calling on the different Departments of
the Government for itifortnation, killing in view
the reduction of the public ex peeves in the va,
floes Departments. This looks well, and as if the
party begun to feel the necessity of putting in
practice sonic 'of those liref-saions with'wh ich they
tickled the cars of the people for many years, while
they were rapidly increasing the'puhlic expendi•
tures, and finally raised them froth about twelve
or thirteen millions of dollars, up to thirty:five
or Roy per 'mourn. On the Whigs coining into
power, they reduced them again down to about
twenty-two or twenty-four millions. Much was
done bythe I•V i llig'Congress towards Wireniqiin
the Public expenditures, in 1991-'=; and if the
present CoirgreStrean do hallos much, they herd
not feel any concern but what the present Tariff
will supply ample reeemie for the Government.
At the expiration of the-morning hour, the House
'went into Committee of the. Whide an d resumed
the debate Of the day previous, which lasted till
their adjournment.
On Thursday the Senate were in 'Executive

tem for actual settlers on the pUblic lands, were
reported. A hilt making an appropriatioe. 61
4.5,000 dollars for the protection and relief of

(loin the Select Committee on tho subject,
made a report, in which the Committee decline
recommending any action dale Rouse-in the case
of the colored man in jail at Washington, on the
presumption that he is a runaway slave. Their
ground is, that he has a remedy in the writ of
'habeas corpus. The report was accompanied

against similar grievances in future. Mr. Dram

In this state of things, are who have so . ollen
testified in the • faUe of the tvoild'ner deep, and
earnest convictions of the fhttil and demoralizing,
tendencies of Mr. Vali Buren'a whole system of

of opinion on aquestions ofpublic policy from Mr.;
Clay; which a' wise ' spirit of moderation, and the
recognized arbitrament of the public will are daily
narrowing in mugnitude
,and extent? I nimbly
think not.
The election of Chief Magistrate of the Union
is one of those vital' processes provided by the .
Constitution of the country for the periodical re.
'gineration of our system by a fresh infusion into
it of the elements of popular health and virtue, in
which no' good citizen, unless undercircumstances
of a very peculiar character, can properly refuse
to take a part, and, to the oxtent.of his influence
and example, a decided And efficient part. When
the vast moral and political inanetice'of the office,
as well as its direct attributes of positive an,d con
trolling power, are considered, it can_never be a
matter of indifference, or even °fun equal balance
of countervailing motive •of preference'or ohrec

it is only the more incumbent on us to determine

'which once conscientimetly fornieti, fearlessly and

in tho approaching Presidential contest, then,
we ought not and cannot be neutral; and if, as
every thing now indicates is to he the ease, that
contest'shall be between Mr. Van Buren and Mr.
Clay, I have as little hesitation in saying that there,
is but one lino of actitin by which we can acquit
ourselves of the full 'measure of our duty ,to the
country; and that is, waiving al! minor consider ,
aliens, to give a 'tienty entiMetermined support to
Henry Clay. For myself, I can conceive of
no greater calamity to the nation, or deeper dis
credit to the cause and very name of popular gov.
eminent, than the re:election of Mr. Van'flurori
would be, after the signal and overnthelming
jority by which lie was no recently deposed from
power, upon the fullest 'canvass of his measures.
policy and conduct.
The host of vindictive passions which follow in
the train of restored governments —the'crowds of
hungry retainers, pleading the merit of past tier
vices' who press ferward to claim the rewartinf
their fidelity, or indenmity for sacrifices and losses,
incurred in the common cause—the infatiiated
nml pertinacieus attachment to ancient almses—
the arbitrary and self:willed habits nurtured In the
tinnier posscs,ion of power—the commitment to
favorite Ina pernicious schemes of policy, have all
concurred to give a Fort of proverbird currency to
the, remark ot'a cele'braied English sta estuan and

evils would be realized to the widest extent, and
in their most unmitigated Virulence, in the redo
ration of Mr. Van ,Eluren, none can doubt who
.havo hecu• at tentise observers of the selfish and
VielOus system of party policy exemplified in the
creed and conduct of himself null his friends, or
who have not forgotten that memorable motto of
pa rtyTapacity,so boldly emblazoned on the shields
of his ehown followers, which, in proclaiming “to
fhb victors belong the spoils of victory," shame.
lcssly pointed to the offices arid public trusts of
the country as the rightful plunder of political
warfare.
But to retort' to the remark I have already made.
Could any ilibur inflict a deeper wound, on the
cause of republican institutions than such a spec
tacle of levity mid invtability. on the part of the
coottluent body as would be exhibited in the res.
Lora lion of Mr. Van Buren, eller the overwhelming
condemnation of his adlidnistration pronounced
by the almost unaninions electoral voice of the
country but three short years ago ? Would it not
render popular governmentitst.lf a ffbv-ward and
a taunt" among the nations? In 1840 the Ame
rican people, upon the fullest and most deliberale
hearing of both sides of the polittenl.centrovcray
—of the friends as well as of the opponents ill Mr.
Vdn Buren—recorded their votes against him by
such a majority as never before signalized the re.
treat of any minister from power, and was till
then utterly unparalleled and even unapproached
in the history of our Presidential contetits. Of,
the .twenty.six States coaxlosing the Union, he
received the votes of but seven, and all of these
(except one,) among the smallest of, jir.lX - t

Han of the Tariff,the Bank, and Distribution.-
' O n the subject of the tariff* I do not hesitate to
say that Mr. Clay'Weri.ed, developed in his recent
letters, is in every respect as just, as sound, and
mievoeptionablo as that of Mr. Van Buren, and
his practice 'infinitely better. Mr. Clay dia not
vote for or approve the tariff tif 'lB2O, consigned
to an odious 'celebrity under the name of the
Bill of Abominations whiClr Mr. Van Buren and
his friends carried by their votes. 'IL is rather an
unfortunate coincidence, considering the proles.
shins of Mr. Van Doren, tlratall the tariffs which
have been most complained °fin the South owe
their existence upon the statue book to the vacs
of himself or his friends..
It is no wont. of charity ; then, bailie resiilt Of
the most candid mid deliberate consideration,
when I express the decided opinion that. Mr. Clay
is for more to be relied upon the a practical adjust
ment of (Ms delicate and- complex subject on
terms 'just and satisfactory to all sections of the
Union, (harmonizing, their various interests by
the golden rule of moderation, which is the only
pledg,e-of permalience and stability in any arrange._
ineii that may be maile,) than Mr.- Van Buren.—
'The, wise and Win perate spirit so strikingly-cxhib
ited in his letters which 1114 , 1, hem recently given
to the-public, i.imitained by his well:knoa•n influ.
.dace with his friends,and his own high and mimics-,
tinned char:oder for frank floes and decision, is a
guaranty which no portion of the nation will
lightly regard.
With respent to the Bank, if the country shall
be reduced to the choice. between the odious and
grinding Sub Treasury Si:Amine' flint ti National
Institution .of Finance, properly- guarded against
abuse by the .jealons restrictions of its charter, as
