between the Northern und Southern wings
of Whijgery. a motion was made to ad

the Houlse adjourned.
WASSU:OTO. June 24.
to tha Senate this morning the resolution
requiring the President to communicate
the namesof the persons removed frm
ofi iras taken up, and Mr. Bch'wann
spokd bricfy in favor of its adoption. - He
wasfollowdd in a more elaborate argument
by Mr. MeRoberts, who quoled Mr. Web.
smr celebrated circular to the atTlco bld
era, whicb created a new crime, not known
'io the laws, and said he cousidered the
tinciple involved in the edict of the new
Vederal dynasty more odious thin that of
thq alien and sedition laws. He quoted
largely from Mr. Websiers speeches to
-sbow the doctrinies formerly hld by that
gentleman on the suhject of reoiovah:
from office, in one of which delivered in
the Senate, he had denied that the power
of removal *existed in the President inde
pendent of the Senate. hs speech at
Richmond was a!so quoted in which "un
der an October sun" he had denonnced the
Democracy as spoilsmen. &c. and held up
the doctrine of proscrilptiou as (alinus and.
one which was to be repudiated Iy the
triumph of Wbixgery. And yet hut a few
brief pgonths had ela psed. and the ameitble
gost ' er at Richmnoud whosi character
apd , mpetcuey were tint attempted to he
'impeached. Mr. RcRoberts wits interrupt
ed in his rema-ks by the announcement
by the chair of the special order.
The bill to incorporate thi subscribers to
the Fiscal Bank of the United States was
then taken up, and the firAt Section having
been read ihrough. Mr. Clay rose antd adl-.
dressed the Senate for about an hour and
a'half in explanaison of the various provi
sions of the hill. He concltided Iy calling
on the friends of the mveasure to let no dii
ferences of opinion or minor que-tiotis of
detail endanger its passage. He ai ded to
the v:lrious and conficsing propositiions [e
tpro the public to show the neces-ity ofr
promply putting the matter to rest by the
establishment of an institution demanded I
by te people, and which was necessary to
the resuscitation of the eriercaes of the
country. He expressed the confident belief
that the feeling in favor cif a bank was not
restricted to the Whig party, but embr aced
a large number of their political opponents.
Mr. Calhoun then Prupisel that. for the
purposeof enabling Senators to examine
the bill, its further consideration he post
poned until to-morrnw. While up. he
would noti-e a closing remark of the Seta
tor of Kentucky. The Senator hail said.
that the many conflicting opinions as to
lhe character of the proposed fiscal agent
a reason for prompt action. Now, in
hie opinion. It was directly the reverse.
These conflicting opinions shou!d be an
admonition to the Legislature, io proceed
with extreme caution. They proved the
utter want of confidence in the present
banking system, and the absurdity of at
qmpting to perpetuate it. As to the re
Kark, that the Batik iarty was more u
merous than the Whig party, and embra
ted many of the Democratic party. his in.
fbrmation was very different. " He belteved
that in the Sotith, a very considerable por.
tiun of the Whig party were unfriendly to
a Back, while the Republicans were si
oral print, as evidence of the opposiuiun of
some of the Eastern Whigs to a Bank.
Mr. Mangum and Mr. Graham controver
ted Mr. Calhoun's statemetu. to far ns
North Carolina was eneernd. In that
State, all ihe Whigs, and, they believed.
one half the Democrats, were h ank tuen.
Mr. Calhoun said, he had received very
diffesrent4 information, from~ gentlemen who
had every facility of 1,-arning public seuiti
mant, in that State. lic then renewed his
proposition to post ponie t he bill sint il to.
morrow. Mr. Clay hoped not. Mir. Cal
beun said the hill had bieen laid Ott tht.ir sit
bles yesterdayt the Senatozr ha-d deliveredh
an el aborate'speech this mtornintg: w.as it
then asking too much of the tmaiurir y, shat
the minority should have until tn-morrow
to examine it. Mr. Claiy still persisted in
his rolusal, Mr. I.uchanian appealed to
the Senator from Kenttucky, so ithdrawv
his opposition to the pns'flnme'it. M1r.
Clay said he could no', and umil ni~ot, - enn
sent so the postponemenct. Mr. lUtebantan 4
said he would appeal to the counetay of sthe
majority. The quiestion was theni taken.
and she Chair decided that it was carriedl.
Mr. Clav, with a stern Iane, demnanded the I.
yeas and nnys; theyv were tlken.nnrd were,i
for the postpoiuement. 35-again,:t it. 13'!
The Senate then took up the hill for t:,e I
relief of M rs. llarrison,. widow ft On.t. W.. I
flenry Harri-ott, appropriaming a biumf.
which with that alrcodv dhrawin from the
Treasury. anmounts to $25.000f. Mr. lien
ton said lie was opposed to sth nitn high
constituitit ntal gruond'l. So far as aspipetr
edon the face of it, it was as mere gratuity
to the wrife of an individnal cotnnecsedl n ith
te civil service of the Gov~ernmtent, mmni
wvas the first step itn the establisht':aenlt f a
civil pensioni list, which in a shirt time I
would rival in extent our smilitatry psioun
list. Hie quoted larjely fromn a work itti
the Pension List orf Etngland. giving the I
names of the benenciaries, insdividluallyv
siad in families, wvith te amounts thtey an. ii
oually receive-one famiily, 5 hiat of Welles

temn, which in Mr. .Jeffereins wordis, senst
the English laborer esperle-ss tm lied; nndh
this was the systemn the Sentate were cal
led upon toenmm~hente by pasi~sing the hill.
The constitution conferred the taxinug pow
er on Congress for certain purposes. and
the bestow al of grattics tn itidividitals w as
not among them. All that Congires could
give so a public man was the amount of
salary fixed by law for his services. Sn
sensible were the Commtistee to whom this
id11 was referred, and whit have reported it
back to the Senate. that it haul no foundla.
;ioo in the Constituttioni to statnd upont, that
they bavse refused to addnltce atty reasons

Hie said qo Govermnrt in the world had
a greater icendency to the pettaion systti
than ours, not even exepting Great Bi
saio. and instanaedt the rapid growth of our
uilitary. pension. list. He inquired the t
ason for this grant. Was it because the d
ixpenses of the office were greatet than a
he. salary of the late incumbent. 'o were a
Ir. Jefeirspn' and yet they have never ti
peen re-imbuised. If this principle was x
isaabliahed, that a President who dies'in o
aiice is to receive the whole years salary. a
t w ould not long be reatricted to the Presi- h
lent; but would extend to the Vice Pre.i- 'I
leat, aud down through all the gradations, V
iaitil it would eitbrace every atticer of the 'i
3overuucu, and there would be as much I
ustice in the fattily aif the officer lowebt in u
nation, preferring their claim, as in the g
rcsient itstauce. Suppose.Geu- Harrison h
lead lived thrugih his four'years, and his a
sipeuditures had ,xceeded his salary ; t
would Congress have been asked to make a
up the deficiencs? If he had died shortly ,
slier thle expiration of-his torin, and it wa. C
usce'rtained that he had used his private ti
resources over and abovei his sal.ury during i,

He hoped that the hill would he rcon

Mr. Bayard r'eplied that the reasons for
passing the bill weould be found in the his
