Io the Senate yesterday, s Message was re
ceived from the President of the United States,
refusing to communicate a copy of his Cabinet
Manifesto, as called for by a resolution of the
j Senate yesterday, on the ground that that they
, had no right to make such a call. After some re
marks from Mr. Clay and Mr. Grundy, the Mes
sage was laid on the table.
Mr. Grundy moved that the election of Com
1 mittees be postponed till Monday. The postpone
ment was urged also by Mr. Webster, and oppo
sed by Mr. Clay. Carried—ayes 28; nays 13.
i The Senate then adjourned to Monday next.

a variety of petitions were presented ftom differ'

and delivered a most eloquent speech in opposi
' tion to the coutse of the Secretary. He was fol
lowed by Mr. Cambreleng; and Mr. Binney next
took the floor.
When Mr. Binney concluded, Mr. Mcltinly,
of Ala., spoke; and he wa9 followed by Mr.

imgL I wish to sett CLIFTON. It it
‘^Jsf I SM'hurted ib ut three miles from Atexan
<»alsfcIKdria, immediately between that place snd
Mount Vernon It contains Two Hund
red and Fifty Acres—an hundred of which are in
j wood, lying in a body on that side of the tract near
■ est Alexandria—the balance is divi led into three fields,
! and wed enclosed by the best post and rail fence
The soil was originally good—the fields have been
j well ditched and cleaned, and by judicious cultivation
are rapidly improving. The Orchards number more
i than six hundred fruit trees, young, vigorous and bear
ing -apple, peach, pear, ch> try, apricot and nectarine.
' The Improvements wtremadeby a gentleman who
spared no cost to complete a plan designed with great
- taste- They consist of a brick dwelling house of two
wings, counec ed by a colonade—each wing contains
; five room-4, finished in the handsomest style. The out
i houses are of brick, and ire convenient, and sufficient
for s large establishment. The whole has lately been
j thoroughly repaired. A pump of excellent Water is in
the yard. The Imu e is on a commanding eminence, '<
! whe e health has always been enjoyed* and as a sum- !
, mer residence has no superior. I lie view is at once j
grand and beautiful. To the north, the house is ap- j
proached through »n avenue three hundred yards in '
length, of large and beautiful trees; and the gardens
and orchards are so srrangt d on each side of this ave
nue as to give i> gmee and beauty. The view from
| the house through the avenue i- shut up by the wood
; land To the south, east and west, the prospect is al- ‘
most unlimited.
On the east you look upon Fort Washington and a
cultivated country in the State of Maryland. On the .
south, Mount Vernon, ao object with which every
American associates all that is interesting and V4 tiers I
ble, is immediately under the eye, with ten or fifteen
thousand acres of fine campaign country, spread out
directly between the two hil's, diversified by wil 'ness
i and cultivation in endless variety.
I l he Itiver I'otoinac fur near ten miles is visible from
1 Clifton: and when whitened by the sail* of a busy
