Mr. FOOT, of Vermont, introduced a proposition,
as an amendment to Mr. Davis's Pedigo Italtroad
bill. ' In Case the bill of the majority of the select
committee shall fail, the latter bill bad his °endu
rance In committee ; but if was defeated, he
wished to add a, clause providing for a Northern
route, to the bill of Mr. MITES.
Mr. DAvte, of Mississippi, eald hie bill did not
specify any route.
Mr. FOOT remarked that be did not intend it ae
antagonistio to Mr. Davis's bill, but as additional,
so as to have two routes, Northern and Southern.
iiir,BLinELL, of Louisiana, from the imlopt cam.
mitteo appointed to consider the banking system
of the District of Columbia, reported a bill to pro
hibit the 141M0 of bank notes by oorporations, essoii
Mations or individuals, and prevent bank notes
from being issued within the District of Columbia,
byisorporationi located beyond the - limits of the
District, of Ow denomination then fifty dollars.
The bill was made the epeeist order for the se cond
.
Tuesday in February.
Mr. SLIMY . . also raported•a resolution that the
committee doom it inexpedient to authorise the
establishment, either by genbral or special laws, of
banks elude within the District of Columbia.
• On motion,ofMr. lisamix, of Maine,ia resolu
tion was adopted, instructing the Committee on
Comteorce to inquire' into the expediency of re
pealing the law creating the Light-houte Board.;
Mr. Hsu., of New Hampshire, rose to Make
statement of feats, saying that in hie remarks the
other'day'Oit the rainy bill, he called attention to
the expenses of the army, whioh were annually in
creasing, and he noticed that his statements had
beta made the aubject of editorial comment in a
newspaper called the Washington !Union, which,
be believed, was the organ of the Administration,
the Supreme Court, and the Lecompton constitu
tion.
lie read an °rimed from that paper, in substaisee
!amusing him of inexcusable ignorance of the shb.
jeot in baud, or a wanton disregard of truth ; and
ho said the editor went on in a column of twaddle,
whioh he a:opposed woe Intended for wit, but whioh
would have to be explained before anybody could
see where the joke was; and had concluded by
saying the Senator bad mado'a alight mistake of
five millions Mr. Hale then read extracts from
documents in support of hie former statement, to
show that the expenses fur army fortifications and
the Military Academy were put down at nearly
nineteen and a half millions of dollars; and the
deficiency naked for by Quartermaster-General
Jesup woe $5,700,000; and should the operations
against the Mormons be carried on from the Paci
fic, an increase would be required of over that
sem. Having the figures on - his side, he would
leave thewit to the editor of the Union.
Mr. Dairta t of Mississippi, said that the Senator
fell into the error of charging everything to the
expense of the army. The amounts expended for
fortifications formed no part of the expenses of
the army any more than the Capitol extension or
Washington aqueduct.
Mr. Ilatn simply wanted to vindicate himself
before Me country for the use of these figures,
which las, had obtained entirely from official docu
ments.
' Mr. DAVIS 010 tfiehed to put the army in a
'true position,
and not to enter into a controversy
between the Senator from Now Hampshire and the
editOr of the Union.
. _
The Senate then took up the bill to inclose the
army.
Mr Toouno, of Georgia, said there was no ne
cessity for the pottage of this bill on account of
Indian hostilitiem for there bed not been an em
bodiment of Indiana' within the country for twenty
five years( rat which was eapable of fighting two
thousand men. With regard to the Mormon trots
bles, ho doomed it ridiculous to suppose that Brig
ham Young was able to compote with -three thou
sand. United States troops. Hence there was no
necessity for un increase on that score. In allu
ding to the remarks of Mr. Iverson yesterday, who
said if It had not been for' the troops in Kansas the
Abolitionists would have been exterminated, and
to those of Mr. Chandler, whd thought that, If
such had been the ease, a fearful retaliation would
have been visited on the border settlements of
Missouri, Mr. Toombs remarked that he would not
enter into any cOntreveray,on these 'points, but be
would not vote to give a single man for the pur
pose of maintaining peace in genera, whoever
might there hold power.
Experience and history, for the last forty cer.-
hales, had demonstrated that order maintained
by regular soldiers was despotism, and that the
pease only thus obtained was the cemetery of
liberty, lie would not maintain peace in Kamp
on ouch terms, nor have order there at no such
cost. If freemen could not maintain peace
among themselves, they were unworthy to exer
else self-government. They were not fit to bo
freemen. A regular army has always been the
instrument of despotism. There was not a des
potic Government, in Europe to-daY.which could
stand ninety days without It. When Mr. Calhoun
was Secretary of War the expenses of the army
were reduced two hundred and aoventy-three dol
lars a man. Now, estimating only the legitimate
expensee of the army, they amount to more than
a fitousand dollars each man per annum. He
earnestly expressed bit opposition to the regular
soldiery, except so far As actually poottesary for
the common defence. The last soldiers seen In
Georgia were sent thither to help the Indian
against the whites, and ha expressed the hope that
the solo of the foot of another Federal soldier
would never again press the sail of that State.
The hour having arrived for the consideration of
the special order, the resolution to present a medal
to Commodore Paulding, it was taken up.
Mr. Pumtest, of Maryland, in the course of his
remarks, said the attempt to deny so notorious a
fact that the expedition of General Walker was of
a military and illegal character, was calculated to
remind one of the ingenious work of Archbishop
Whately t In which it was attempted to rebuke the
spirit of incredulity, by bringing forward historic
doubta, not only as to the marvellous exploits of
Bonaparte, but even to the very existence of ouch
a person. The Grand Jury of Now Orleans, by
writing ignoramus on the bill of Indictment
igainst Walker, had. by that word expressed its
own character.
He could not sec how any man could sympathise
with Walker, who was a mere dreamer, a visionary,
whose ideas belonged not to modern times and the
present state of civilisation, but to the period when
might made right, and predatory incursions were
viewed as both proper and fashionable. He argu
ed that we were entitled to consider the territorial
sovereignty of Nioaragua as waived, as far as the
removal of Walker was concerned, and contended
that Paulding was entirely justified in hie conduct.
It ha committed any error at all,'lt was not a
" grave error," but the smallest fruotional part of
an error. Commodore Paulding had his heartiest
thanks, and doubtless the thanks of the mass of
the people of the whole country, but ho would not
vote him a medal, for that was not the desert ptiop
of service for which such marks of approbation
should be bestowed.
Mr. Smntun, of Louisiana, entirelydisepproved
of the act of Paulding, and hoped the President
either had, or would, recall him. lie equally die!
approved of the motives and cause of General
Walker, and tied no confidence In him either as a
soldier or statesman. General Walker's past
enures had shown him to be incompetent in the
cabinet as well as in the field. In conolesion, Mr.
Slidell submitted an amendment to the bill re
,
ported by the Committee on Foreign 'Relations, au
thorizing the President to suspend the neutrality
laws at his discretion, but not exceeding twelve
months; and if the President does so, he shall
communicate his reasons therefor tb Congress.
The subjeot was postponed till the 9th of Feb
ruary.
The consideration of the army bill was then
taken up. •
Mr. Sruenr, of Michigan, thought It evident, in
view of the situation of our troops and the troubles
in Utah, that en Increase of the army was flown
ry, and ho shonld sap; sit the bill as reported by
the Committee on Military Affairs. 1184 he had
his way in dealing with the Mormons, he would
have pursued a somewhat different course from
that adopted by the Government. lie would not
have declared war against them, or Bent troops
thither to suppress the rebelliLm, but hare cut off
their Government supplies by, suspending the np.

Bon of the printing deficieney bill. '
Mr. Snew, of Illinois, oommeneed..a, speech upon
the Kittle question, when Mr. Burnett, of Ken
tucky, rose to a point of order, saying that the
rule requires members to confine 'themselves to the
euhiestroer consideration. , ,
Theiggrialrman rOtAlltked that, if this question
bad now been"presented for the' tat tithe, be
would have dieided the point to have been 'well
taken, but a different usage had prevailed.
Mr. Binutarr said that too much time had been
occupied in 'making speeches for mere home con
gumption on subjects which require no legislation.
It was time that an end wan put to such proceed
' legs.
Mr. MMus, of Illinois, thought it discourteous
to make the point on colleague, after ether
gentlemen had slider' Without objectless, on ludo
vent subjects. •
Mr. Bowasirtreplied that he meant. no Aare
soot, and mentioned that he and others had in
vain struggled for the floor, in order to discuss the
bill before the oommittee, but he. Would not now
oppose further objection. - •
Mr. SHAW resumed and said :, Take a Republi

would become a Republiean, It was not in his

lie had a contempt for any portion of the North or
'Pouth which seeks p dissolution of the Union. The
people of the section from which ho came stand
by the Constitution: The voters of Kansas tied
not bad a fair oppettunity to decide for them
selves upon the Constitution under which theY
are to live. Fifteen out of the thirty-four coun
ties of the Territory Were excluded from casting a
single vote for the delegates to the Lecompton
Convention.
, lie wanted justice done and the truth to pre
vail, lie oared • not whether tbe people of the
Territory should decide to have slavery or not, but
Insisted that they should judge .of that question
forttemselves. lie believed there was 9 numerl-
Sal AS well se a moral strength here to reject, that
Constitution, and for himself he would never, vote
foe-the Constitution that the people of Kansas had
never bad an opportunity to endorse. This was a
question'of principle, not power. Ile was sorry to
perceive an intention,
by a party in this House, to
deprive tho people of their inestimable rights. '
Mr. Sum', of Virginia, wanted to know whether
the people had not an opportunity to vote for dole
gates to the Convention.
Mr.. SHAW replied that they hail not, and re
ferred, in proof, to Om Walker's late letter.
Mr. SAM said the revolutionists prevented the
execution of the law, and now the gentleman and
h's friends complained of frauds.
Mr, Strew left the gentleman from Virginia
(Mr. Smith)i to decide the question of veracity
which he raised between himself and Governor
Walker.
In reply Man inquiryof Mr. Crawford, of Geor
gia, Mr. Shaw said the South insists that the peo
ple of Kansas shall live under institutions they
never endorsed, and it is sought to•palm a fraud
upon them. They had never signed the note, and
should not, therefore, pay for it..
Mr. Coons, of Massachusetts, reviewed the
fripmeial policy of the Administration, showing the
inconsistency between the President and the Se
cretary of the Treasury on that subject. He con
tended that the application of the bankrupt law
to local blinks, as recommended by the Executive,
would be fraught with disaetreus moults to the
industry of the country. It was for the States,
net Congress, to regulate and conduct these insti
tutions.

lid not arise from any objective, to slavery, but It
was based on it foundation more plainly understood,
namely : A violation of the declared principle of
the Kansas-Nebraska net. To ask bins to support
the Lecompton Constitution would be to insult him
by casting a suspicion on his integrity. He might
stand alone, but ho would not part with his free.
thoughts for a throne. Ile knew different motives
would be attributed to him If his conduot,
boaring immediately or remotely on Southern in
stitutions, should subject him to the anathemas
of his Southern friends, so bo it. He should not
conceal his sentiments in order to obtain a chari
table construction. The attempt made to force
the Leeompton Constitution on au unwilling peo
ple, by force or fraud,. would induce him to resist it
Ire would grant to his brethren what ho slammed
for himself—namely, the exorcise of their rights iu
their fullness, conferred by the pure spirit of liberty.
This wee the golden constitutional rule, sound alike
bOth for individuals and Staten. He strongly de
nounced the frauds and impositions on the people
of Kansas, slavery having been fastened on them
in bold defiance of their sacred rights. He could
not lend himself• to any movement to undermine
the foundation on which legislation rests, or falsify
the pledges mode by Democrats to the people of
the country during the lest Presidential election.
In alluding to the President's message, be said he
always know slavery was a peculiar Institution, but
never before knew that it embraced all the do
mestie irstitutions, vrbloh, by the Kansas Nebraska
law the people were to be perfectly free tonctin their
own way. This doctrine ofpopularsovereignty is not
as popular as it was. ' It was formerlisupposed to
mean something giving the people power over all
domestic institutions. But now, as thought by the
President, it is to be. sweated down to the con
temptible dimensions es to whether they shall hold
a negro in bonds or not. This is all the extent of
popular sovereignty. The case, however, ia worse.
It is false pretence. The question of slavery could
not bo voted on, because the proviso of the Le-
complon Constitution rendered it impossible, for
the reason that it deolares slavery shell not be in•
terfered with as it :lOW exists. And'it now exists
in Kansas lust as firmly as in South Carolina.
This was the first time he had learned that that
State is a free Wale whore the institution

stitution simply because it has the Exeoutive
approbation? He should as soon admit a bastard
to be a lawful hoir, as that Constitution to be the
representative of the sovereign will of Kansas,
with no lawful blood in it. The Ranias Legisla
ture never was a lawful body, and hence the acts
emanating from it were illegal. Ruffianism has
there held sway from the beginning to the present
time ; and in order to conceal this from everybody,
efforts have boon made to conceal the fact. How
had it mulled that no Democratic officials were
found strong enough to stand the atmosphere of
Kansas? Four Democratic tie - remora Lave sue-

cessfully been sent thither, and all have returned
telling the slime story, and in nearly the same
words—that popular sovereignty was crushed out
of Eames,
The reply to the question, what is to be done with
those who vote against the Leoompton Constitu
tion, was given in a Southern newspaper. They
are to be branded, have their ears alit, and be then
rend out of the Democratic party. But care must
be taken that too many men of the North aro not
read out of the organisation. Ile thought that be
had a pretty tl - .stinet, recollection 'of the necessity
which existed fur strenuous efforts to secure the
vote of Pennsylvania for Mr. Buchanan, and re
membered, too, what feeling there was in the
South lost the Presidency should fall on a seellonal
party.
Might he not, then, inquire why the soldiers in
that content should bo slaughtered so unceremo
niously? To *upped the Limempten Constitution
was to support that which was begotten in fraud
and brought forth in iniquity. lie scorned the
recommendation to admit Kansas on the ground
of expediency, in the absenee of.right. It was in
direct violation and contempt of the pledges which
bad been made to the people, and violative of the
title by which President Buchanan holds his pre
sent position. Had the President's annual UM
sage been read before the election of 1850, there is
no telling bow large a majority there would have
been against him. Let Kansas be forced into the
Union with the Leoompton Constitution, and there
will bo an end of national platforms and the be
ginning of sectional Presidents.
Mr. SUMI/AN, of Ohio, recapitulated the history
of Kansas ' and said that the free-State men there
have by their courage done more to secure our in
stitutions against fraud and violence than any
other people since the foundation of the (tavern

compton Constitution on them, it must be by the
strength of arms, for beery aspiration of liberty
will be against snob an attempt.

PHILADELPHI4 DIARICErS.
Tutlunar, Jan. 28.—Vvening. The foreign
news hate bad no effect upon the markets for either
cotton or brendstuffs, to-day, and of the former the
sales have been limited, and prices the same ; of
the latter we have only to note a moderate busi
ness doing in flour, forborne use, At from $4.821 to
$4.75 for superfine, $4.57505.25 for extras, and
$5 5046 per bbl for fancy tote, according to brand
and quality. Shipping brands are held at our
lowest figures, without finding buyers at that
price. Corn Meal and Rye Flour are dull andnear
ly nominal at jprerrious quotations. Wheats are
not plenty, but the demand baa fallen oft; and
about 2,500 bus eold at 11431150 for good red, and
1.2.5a130 for fair white. Corn is in steady demand,
Mad about 7soo bus new yellow bare been sold at
57458 e, in store and in the care, and COaGlo
mostly at the latter figures Oats continue
dull, and about 2 500 bus have been cold at .330
fur Southern, and ale for Pennsylvania. Rye is
wanted it 100. Bark is wanted at for first
quality, and but little arriving. Groceries are in
active, with small sales of sugar and soiree at about
previous rates. Provisions are firm, and rather
more active. Mesa Pork is quoted at $15416 per
bbl. Bacon hams oal2e; sides Nape ; salted at
7+a710 ; shoulders at rde, and lard at 9.1940 per lb.
Seeds are quiet. and Cloverseed wane at $5l per
bus Whiskey is unsettled and bbls selling at 20
a2le, drudge 19a19i0, and hhde at 19a20e.
Fortune-Telling in Philadelphia.—We have
been furnished by Alderman Erma with the par
ticulate of a once of fortune-telling, whit& exhib
its a state of most pitiable ignorance. It appears
that An afternoon or two since, a young servant
girl, who is in the employ of a family at German.
town, applied to this magistrate to know whether
he would provide her with a warrant for the arrest
of a fortune-teller. She slated that she had be
come too intimate with a young journeyman ear
pouter in the place,'and es he had left German
town, it was very important that she should as
certain his whereabouts. With this view she had
applied to a Mrs. —, a notorious " fortune
teller,' to restore' her delinquent betrayer.
The sail promised to do so fora consideration of
$5. The girl had but $3.50, but the sorceress said
that the process by which the desired event was to
be pi-educed, was by shaking in a box three pow
dere together with five dollars in silver. The girl
then begged that the fortune-teller would supply
the balance temporarily, and said she would repay
her the next day—a proposal which was declined.
on the ground that the efficacy of Atte charm de
pended upon the money belonging Solely to the op
plieant. The poor girl thou borrowed the existing
deficit, and received three powders, one of which
she was directed to burn each .night on retiring.
and 'Was promised that iho third powder - would
restore to her the truant loser. J
Finding that the charm proved unavailing. the
girl applied - to another 'soothsayer, and was simi
larly voStimized to the same amount.
Lipoti learning the facts, Alderman Erten caused
the arrest of both astrologers, and made them re
store the ill-gotten booty, pay the girl's expenses
from aermantown, aud the costs of the arrest.
Upon asking the girt how atm could be so ignorant
as to become the victim of so gross a deception,
she said that ehe read the advertisement of the
swiniier in a oily paper, and, of ours; whatever
is printed must be true.
Street Nomenclature. This tutilicat was
again "tinder considoralloit at the meeting of Se- -
Tact Counclryesterday afternoon. To give in ex
ienro the numerous amendment, offered - to the bill
submitted bathe special committee ' would require
Much more apace thin we elin - well afford.. Suffice
it to say, that ail which were proposed wore put to
an immediate vote, without any prolonged discus
sion. Sever I members opposed the introduction
of the Mimes of Mend:ars of Connell' the
bill, to boglven as the names of Amiga. '
Mr. Nathans, we understand, will introduce a
resolution whici embodies his views to this effect,
at the next meeting of the Chamber. After the
ordinance bad been gone through with, in Com
reitteaof the Whole, Mr, ,Cuyler rather surprised
come of the 'meinbers by' bbrpropositiciti, Which
will be found under the appropriate head. 'To odi
mind it appears to bo the meet feasible of all the
plans premed in reference to this vexed subject
of street pornepolature.
