Thc IIousc was in Committccs ofthc Wholc Mr. Tompkins de votcd his hour to a review of the Prcsidcnt's message rcfusing to communi- catc to thc IIousc mformation in rcgard to the admission of Santa Anna into Mcxico, and thc instructions given to Mr. Slidell, our Ministcr Plcninotentiarr to that country.

In this conncction, Sir. Tompkins delivcrcd a highly wrought and bcantiful culogy upon Mr. Adauis, thc then Prcsidcnt.

W. S. EDITORIAL CORRESPOXDEXCE. WAsnixcTOX, Jan. 20th, 1848. Therc was no busincss transactcd in cither IIousc of Congress to-day. Thc two branchcs came together at thc usual liour; and in thc IIousc, immcdiatcly aftcr thc journal was rcad; Mr. lirouhcail, i'ennsylvania, announccd the death of onc of his collcagucs, Mr. Hornbcck after which thc usual resolution was adopt cd, and the IIousc adjounicd. A like scrvicc was pcrfonncd m thc Scnate. Mr. Webstcr was cngagcd m thc Suprcme Court, and drew a largc numbers of ladies and gcntlcmcn to hcar lum. The caso was in relation to a co partnership. Thpro i vnrv little nnw mntfpr if frnnpr-il conccrn about which to writc. Mr. 6lay at tracts many visitors to the Uuited Statcs Hotcl, whcrc hc has rooms; and his prescncc hcrc at this timc, of coursc, causcs much specula- tion m rcgaru to the hig candiuatc for thc Presidency. It is gcncrally eoncedcd hcrc that Mr. Cass will bc thc Loco Foco nomincc. Hc is ultra and unprincipled, and will carry out any mcasurc his partv may proposc. His election would, in mr opiniou, bc more disas- terous to this country than crcn tho election of Mr. Polk lias been and thcscfore it should bc the aim of cvcry true friend of the Union, of i'eaee, anu ot pohticul morality, to dcleat him, or any of his stamp. Mr. Clay has many influential friends, who prcss with all thcir zeal and ability his nomi- nation. JLliey protcss to bclicvc him thc strongcst man that can bc madc a candidatc. That he has many warm siipportcrs in the country, no onc can or will denr, and that hc would makc a modcl of an Executi vc, no Whig at Icast will qucstion. Yet tliat hc at thc prcscnt timc thc most available man is the point on which thc party difler. Therc seems to bc a strong disposition evinccd to makc thc nextcaiup.iign a victoriou3 onc Thc prcscnt position of altairs hcrc and in Mexico rcndcrs this dcsirablc almost bej-ond calculation. If the higs arc dcfcated this fall, and such a man as Cass clected, I have, and so have oth crs pldcr and ablcr than mysclf, gloomy forc bodings of the futurc dcstiny of this country. Mr. Clay's friends arc numcrous and inilucn- tial, but tlicrc u a vcrj- large class of artlcnt and cnthusiastic Whigs who doubt thc policy of rnnning him again,and think that witli him dcfcat would be incvitablc. This class gencr ablyprcfcr Taylor as a candidatc, though thcrc aro many who namc McLean, and Scott, and Webstcr, but at thc present timo in thc city of AVashington tho two moin currents of opin ion go for Clay and Taylor. I have hcard somo Taylor men sny that thcy would run him, Convcntion or no Convcntion; and I havo hcard somc Clay men say that thcy wonld votc for "no one but narry Clav ns long as he livcd, and that aftcr his death they would go for his Executors." Isow all this is mcrc vcrbiagc, and is nd indication of what either party will evcntually do. Among tho wise anu discrot men, a Xatiohal Convcn tion is advocatcd, and by thc decision of that body they will abide. It is gcncrally conccdcd hcJc that Taylor "s n Whig,' but this noivocal poJtioa hejnow hohlsof ccunug."ianrt thfi. supportofbothparties, displcascs many, and unlcss he comcs out boldly npon tho n hig platform, and tellsthe country in languagc un cquivocal what arc his views concerning this war, and the policy hc would pursue in regard to Alexico, and other mattcrs morc or less uu portant, he can calculatc upon but a fceble support from thc Whjg party, and upon none nt all from the Loco Focos. Those who know Taylor say he is as sound as Mr. Clay or any othcr Whig upon theso issues if so, why thcn not say so publicly, anu cnu all aoubt. You will havo noticed thc rcnort of a bill from the Committce of Ways and Mcans, fora loan of 1 8 millions fice Jtundred thousand dollars. This immensc sum has alrcady bccn expenucu, and it is demandcd to pay for obligations al rcady incurrcd; and bcfore thc cnd of the scs sion, another loan will bc requircd, of twcnty millions morc. to carrv this bcautiful war into the "vital parts ot iMexico. 1 have not reau the bill, as it has not bccn rcturned from thc printcrs, but I prcsume that it fixcs the inter cst at six pcr cent.. and provides that it must bc negotiatcd at or above par. Treasurj- notes. bcarincr six Der cent intcrcst, are now scllins at a discount of two pcr cent., and with thc prcsent scarcity ot moncy, ttic uovcrn ment, I think, will find it difficult to ncgotiate a loan. It is gcncrally undcrstood herc that thc Loco Focos will cndeavor to changc thc character of tho bill, so as to have thc amount reouircd raised by an issue of Treasury notcs, or in other words, dcprcciatcd Government papcr, and flooding thc country with thc worst kind of jiaper curreucy: AVill it not bc an intcresting spccticlc to have the Loco Foco side of tlie IIousc takc up the cudgcls for this dcprcciatcd Government papei, after all they have saiu in Ucnunciation ot uanc notcs anu in fuvor ofthe hard moncr, subtrcasurv' systcm. Again, a great intcrcst is felt herc to scc what course thc House will takc, in relation to the rcfusal of the Prcsidcnt to comniunicate to Connss and the country thc rcioe of the corrcspondcncc which led to tho return of San ta Anna to Mcxico, an the instructions given to John Slidell, whcn hc was scnt Minister to Mex-.eo. Thcrc are certam tacts iu relation to this mattcr which honorablc mcmbers here bclicvc it is by many bclicved, and therc are good grounds for the bclief, that Slidell was instructcd to demand ofMcxico a consider able nortion of California, and to demand tho Rio Grande as thc wcstcrn boundary of Texas; and it is belicvcd that Santa Anna had agrccd, when in Cuba, tliat hc would, if again in pow- er, acccdc to our uemanus, whatcvcr thcy micht bc and as an equivalent, wc werc to givc up our claims against Mcxico, and in ad dition, as adouceur to himself, wc were to givc him thrcc millions of dollars. As part, therc- forc, of thc schcme, bhilell was mstructcU to tln-catcn the Mcxican government, in the c- vcnt of its rciusal to accedo toour uemanus, witli a return of Santa Anna from banishment and as a nart ofthc nlan, tocoerce thc3Icx- ican government, our sliips of war were order cd to"cruife in thc Gulf, and thc army undcr Gcneral Taylor to advancc to the Rio Uranae.
