CoNcE1ssIoNAL.--On Monday last, in
the house, Mr. Burt of South Carolina,
moved a joint resolution, providing that
notice be given to (Great Britain of its be
ing the in'entionm of the United Slates to
terminate the existing treaty, agreed upon
in 1842, which provides for the suppression
of the slavetrade. a previous notification
of such intention being required before the
expiration of the treaty. The resolution
was referred tihe to Conmntittee on naval
affiirs. We find little of interest, other
wise, in the proceedings.
We give, on our first inge, the inangurul ad
mross of His Ixcellec mty, Gov. MIF.A5s.
Our reaslieri will remmnlher, that he was the
anthor of that eloquent and soul-stirring nmpls-al,
innale, niiost two years ago. by the citizest of
Fairfield, to lhose of her sister districts, which
exercised so pstent an influence in aru-ing the"
ieople of Smith ('urolinnl t a sense of their
dangers, aind to a determnination to resit the int
croauenmn ts ipmon thi-r rights.
The address before u-i breathes, throuighoiut,
that same spirit of devotion to the canmme of the
Sonth, and of indignation, in the cmutenplationi,
of her wrongs; and it i~ charneterizerd by the
salte chmashstee of iliction. beauty of style and
elevation of sentimnent. which so eninently ii
tinstmished the adldnrea of 49.
While we arm free to conf-s, that all of the
gentlenen, whose numnme were ts-mil in connei
on with the (Chie ltMagirtracy, are mnen of talen t,
nid ability; we are yet eo~uide-nt. that the Irti.
lature of S. ('. coul have ntade choice of no more
lit andi pros-r srsmon to liii that office, than (e:n

lowing action was had on these resolutionts:
Air Foote rose to present to the Senate
the resolutions of censure passed upon his
coturse in the Senate at the last session, by
the legislature of Mississippi. He re
narkend that the legislhture thus con
dernninig him, was composed of high-minded
anl honorable inen; but he believed that
they had entirely moisunderstood the venti
nents of the people of Mississippi, as he
thought the elect ions of the next fall would
very eoncliusively show.
The Chair. What motion does the Sen.

It was knaown tromt the Goernor's Mee
sage that the oiperaisons of' the Bank has
beeni very successful during the financial

the "Fire Loaan,' at is more than 7 per cent

suIpposed bad debts about $ltK,tM) more.
T1his is certsmnaly a favoarale exhibit, and
esper:ally a subject of congratulationa at a
time whent thei State has need of an over
Iluwing treasury to meet exp 'nses that it
concerna alhke her honor and her safe
ty to meaur.
Th'ere are inconveniences, as we are re-.
tminded lay the Report, in having an excel
lent credit. T1he poition of thme Blank has
been: such for somne time past, that it bas
been an obaject with the Board to invest
port iotns of its means in the outstanding
debt of the State, and fronm this time for
wardl it would probably be in its power
rapidly to extinguish the whole of that debt.
lBut the creditors will not be paid. The
Bank has parleyed anad proposed, and nego
tiated, bnat they are as obdturatte as Shylock
andi insist upon having their bond instead
of the money for which it was giien. Now
and then somne poor wretch getia catught in
tihe trap of miichanace, atnd is broiugh' to
termts, but this is a rare event, tand mi rwen
