Sir. HI ilHKB said the democratic party ucvn wwu a

portion of It, by direction or indirection, adopt
pd ? propositi'<1 to farter or encourage tile slave tnule,
tine it could no louder elk. He did not nub to see
the lit* pu?tpo?ed. but wan ready to laeet it at once.
Mr SlNtiUrP'N stated tluit the gentleman ntuc mit
IJLten in suppiwlng tliat they wriv advocating the reopenin(t
ot thai trade He had only opposed the ratabliwldiig
of the precedent that returned negroes should be educated.
Sir. IHJftMEIT yielded to no man in advocating the
r^Mt of the States, but would go as far a* the furthest
]|e believed, however, that they would be placed in a false
aitiuo, growing ?ut of tie- ilbcuailua of this question.
He war for enforcing the laws, and opposed to this higher
law whether iu the North or South
Sir . JOKBi, of 'ciineaaec, hoped the Chair would con - I
hue the debate strictly to the amendments under outlaid
t-rationMr
SMITH, of Virgiuia titeu moved that the enact
log clause be stricken out; which motion was not agreed
to.
Mr RAKIvSDALE was sivti-liod the President iu re
turaing tin Afiicaus violated tlie law, but lie believed j
),e was animated by a pure and pitriolic motive, ami lie
was not |Te|?red to eondeiun him. lie believed the
amendment of Mr SinauTOX ought to have l?een adopted.
I udcr this aiuenduieut the motives of the President would
net have been condemned : simply his otlicial conduct.
Put u|?<i a bill like this the (fiecumdow upon the reopening
of the slave trade wras 111 timed. At the proper time,
ami under the pruper circumstances, he would be pre
pared to take lib jioeitlon in regard to it.
Mr. NH'llOL\ of Ohio, took the same ground with
reference to act* of Uie J'rewident tluit he occupied venterilay.
and waa of the opinion that enough of time had
t?vn consumed in it* considerate >n.
Mr. CLAY, of Kentucky, made a personal explanation
in relation to the remark which he made yesterday, that
he wa? oppoord to all the law* in reference to the slave
tr.uie, to prevent misconstruction. There *u no man '
up<11 Uie ttoof more oppoaed to the reopening of the clave I
trade than himself. He was also oppooed to the law
rendering the slave trade piracy, Iwcause he believed the
pualty so severe that the law never would he enforced,
mid c'.ii, this as an explanation of the manner in which
he iMrnl his remarks to Is* interpreted.
Mr BURNETT inquired whether the gentleman would
enforce them as they now exist.
Mr. CLAY replied that he most certainly would
Mr MILES, of South Carotins, had listened with some
regret to the discussion. He was that hideous thing a
sectional man He was the representative of a sovereign
State of the weaker section, and they could not but tie
sectional, liecause they must lie united in order to maintain
tluir lights. lie did not cLo-s himself in the grpat
national democratic ranks. He would go with thai pirty
honestly where he could conscientiously and consistently
with the honor of his section ; hut when they called upou
him to depart one iota from that courer, lie lurried his
Ituk up si them, and left them forever. And while be
waa not prepared to advocate the reopening of the slave
trade, be was pfefwred to ndv?cate the sweepiug away
from our statute books of the laws whs h stamped the people
of his State as pirates. It was impjssildc to escapIlie
logic of (he gentleman from Ohio, |Mr. ( MoKStmCK,]
that, if now pinny, il always had lieeri piracy if now u
crime against religion, it always had been. He would
never consent to allow this stigma to remain which degraded
and ]>ut a slur upon the people of his section of
the confederacy.
Mr. GOOCH, of Ifanaacbusetto, did not regret the dis
ciMsioti If the ptepk hud known the views of many
liii'tut* i? upon int'KC qucmious ix'iuic mcy were ciccti-u,
a very di tie rent result might have taken place.
Mr. HOUSTON, of AUkiim, remarking that the
chilrupui of the Committee of Ways and Means would
p-rtuit the amendments already adopted to come before
the House, moved that the enacting cfaume be stricken
out.
Mr. GALNETT, of Virginia, inquired whether the
chairman of that committee would do it
Mr. PHELF8, of Missouri, stated that he would liimwlf
ofier them, although he should vote against them.
Tire question being taken, tire motion of Mr. Hocston
did not prevail?yeas 34. noes 94.
The question recurring upon the motion that the wrhhle
section as amended be stricken out ?
Mr. DONHAM, of South Carolina, offered the following
additional proviso, to be added to the section :
I'mrvMI, That 0 p?rt of said sum shall be used in educating
children. or reaching children or ndults the -art- of civiheed life."
Mr. BONHAM was opposed to the precedent sought to
l* established. Mr. Monroe had not gone as far as Mr.
Buchanan : but still he did not intend to impugn thc
motives of the President. He believed thern to be good,
but he had gtme beyond the law in makiug a contract
for tin1 educatkn of these negroes. He would go further
than other gentlemen. The President owed no higher
obligation than to send lock these Africans, support them
while here, and provide for them after placing them io
the hands of a roiqwinsible agent, and put them io the same
condition they occupied before their capture. He thought
the spirit of the law antl^oriiori the President to put
them there and provide for them, hut not to the extent
of teaching them the arts of civilised life.
The amendment of Mr. Hoxham being rejected, the
question was taken on the motion of Mr. Cask, that the
entire section, a* amended, be stricken out; aud it was
agreed to?ayes 104, news ?fi.
<>n motion of Mr. PHELPS, of Missouri, the committee
then rose and reported the hill to the House.
Mr. PHELPS demanded the previous question ; which
w.o seconded and the main tmention ordcreii.
Ami then, on motion of Mr. MOUGAX, of New York,
the House adjourned.

CITY INTELLIOENCE.
SxiTHfoMAX Luiim?llcv. K_ film Recur, of lUltiniore,
last night delivered bin lecture upon "Poetry and
Women." it wan a chaste ami finished effort, abounding
in racy allusions ami happy hits. The poet's art, he
mid, was a noble art. Even in this material aye, which
t degrades everything which does not (sender to the prevailing
appetite for dollars and rents, poetry still retained
its charms The true poet was the true prophet. Take
1 from Isaiah and the other prophets of the Scripture- the
poetry of their thoughts and language, and they would
be stripped of all their sublimity. The imagination was
the well-spring of the poet. Hut the term imagination
was too often misunderstood ; too often it was regarded
as the source of vitiated ideas, whereas, in reality, it was
the fountain of the best and purest thoughts. The lecturer
here ridiculed the poetasters who deal in "silver
streams" and "golden dreams," "lovers' hearts" and
"Cupid's darts." He had often heard a smitten swain
' sigh to become a bird, in order to fly to his love's
j lower, when, if the truth must lie told, his lady possessed
no such romantic dwelling.
Those who longed for a "forest cave" would, he
f 1 thought, "cave in" alter enjoying a few rainy days in
i ' so charming adomicil. He looked upon the true poet as
I a true man. The testimony of great lords in this par
ticular should he of some interest, and he read copious cx- |
tra- U from Ben Johnson, Wordsworth, Tennyson, and
Ixmgfellow to show wliat that testimony was. To the
true poet woman was the most poetical of all sensible ob.
jects. Every man partakes of the j km-tic feeling at that
1 period when he first becomes a victim to the tender (Mission.
I>ct crusty old bachelors say what they might, all
men without exception, at some time of their lives, felt !
the meaning of tliat most |ioetiual of words? fore. Wo- I
man had ever been the most inspiring theme to the poet, i
j He knew that there were disagreeable wometi in the
world, and the young men around kirn would ere long ,
i realize that fact ; hut the woman of poetry was a true
and perfect woman, devoid of all that the mott fastidious j
| could reprehend, and gifted with every kind and loving
i impulse. The lecture was attentively listened to by a !
goodly audience ; the proceeds are to be benevolently
applied.
