Mr. WILSON, of Massachusetts, oil-red the tal lowing resolution, which was agreed to: Resolved, That ibe Secretary ot the Interior b directed to report, for the Information of the Senate,' what goods have been purchased in open market in the Indian Bureau since the first day ot January last; said report to specify in detail the mbtr or quantity of articles purchased, the prices pdid, or agreed to be paid, therefor, and the name of lh party or parlies from whom the same were purchased. 1 be Senate bill authorizing the appointment of pension agents by tbe I'resident, by and Wltn the advice and consent of the Senate, amended by the House to limit the number of agencies of them for each State or territory, and providing that no ad ditional agency Bhall be established in any State where the pensions paid do not exceed .'i00,(Mi() for the preceding year, and that the term of all agents appointed since January 1, If (it), shall expire with in thirty days after the passage of the act, and the President be requested lo nominate their succes sors with nineiy-11 ve davs from thesame date, was leported lrom (he Ju'dlclnry Committee, -with amendmf nts, substituting October 1, lH.r, for Jan. uarv 1, lt-tifl, and Binding out nil tbereafter.and in serting a ptovi-lon that the t rms of all o'her pen sion agents Bhnll expire when successors shall be duly appointed. Mr. WILLIAMS, of Oregon, presented a reso lution directing the Committee on foreign Rela tions to inquire Into the expediency of regulating and reetrlclng the Immigration and importatiou of Chinese ioiu the United Slates. Mr. Williams said he cfiered this resolution at this lime with a view tp call the attention of Congress and the country to the subject to which it refers. Since the firs't discovery of gold in California, the Chi nese in considerable numbers have emigrated to the Pacific const. They cnine there not to be clti zens, not to learn to speak our langunge, or pro less our religion, or adopt our customs, manners or habits, but to he a people unto themselves, and to maintain their nti-ichment to the government of tbe country In which they were born. He (Mi. William.".) would not undertake to say that any particular taint h'td yet resulted from the presence of these people ou the Pucillo coast, but new facilities for their immigration have re cently been made, and no doubt they will be in creased so bs to bring the Chinese here in great numbers. It was time for Congress to give a lit; lo atiention to ibe subject. The resolution was adapted. A', one o'clock the. bill to admit Nebraska came np es the unfinished business of yesterday . Mr. HOWARD, of Michigan, took the lloor in advocacy of tbe bill and opposition to the amend ments ot Mr. llrown, that this act shall take effect only upon the fundamental condition that there shall b-no denial of the elective franchise on ac count ot color in Nebraska. Mr. Howard did not agree with the Senator lrom Massachusetts, that it was a violation of tbu Declaration of Indepen dence to deny the linnchise to colored persons. He did not regard the right to vote us a nmurul right, but us a conventional right. In the previous his tory of legislation no such connitlons as were now proposed were attached to a bill for the admisstou ot a new State. Nebraska und Colorado had com plied with all conditions imposed on them in the ei nbling act. It was a departure from the good fai'h which should regulate the conduct of Con gress toward the territories to exact such condi tions. It wnc competent for Congress to prescribe con ditions for the admission of a new State, but they must be conditions precedent, to to complied with before the admission of the State, and not utter it. Alter a territory had come into the Union and been vested with the powers of a State, it would be competent for its people to set aside or repeal such u coudi'ion as was embraced in Mr. IJrown's amendment. In doing this they would only be exercising the right of States to regulate the fran chise. He (Mr. Howard) expeited to live to see tte day, and not be a very old man, either, when every State in the Union would grant the right of Bnllrnge to colored men. He saw no lemedy but universal suffrage for the condition of affairs that now existed in the Bouih, yet he was onrelul, as a member ot the Committee ou Reconstruction, in presenting tbe pending constitutional amendment to Congress, to leave the regulation of suffrage to Hie States. Mr. ISROWN asked Mr. Howard whether, in affirming that the Slates have nn exclusive con trol over tbe whole question of the right of suf frage, he took the position that if any State in the Un.'on, by its limitation upon the franchise, shall destroy the republican form ot the government, tbut tbe United States has no right to interpose to protect the guarantee of a republican form of go vernment, Mr. HOWARD said that when It should be made manifest to him, as a member of this body, that there was in any State in this Union a gov ernment which whs not republican in lorm, he should be lendy lo apply tne remedy guaranteed by the Constitution. Hut lie must, at the same time, say to the Senator lrom Missouri that he did not believe that that clause of the Constitu tion authorized Congress to pass a law in refer ence to any State in this Union giving to the black people of that State the right to vote at its polls. In other words, he did not bold that the exclu sion cf tbe black race from the right to vote w as such a departure from a republicuu form of gov ernment us would uuthoiize Corgress to interlere. Toward the conclusion of his remarks Mr. How ard dwelt ur on the subject ot reconstruction. The Senator from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) bad said that Congress had agreed that if the rebel States would ratify the pending constitutional amendment they would be readmitted into thir Union, and permitted to participate in legislation in the two houses of Congress. Doubtless the honorable Senator from Ohio (Mr. Sherman) said what he really believed to bo true. The same statement had often been made, not very frequently in Congress, but very frequently during the last congressional canvass, and in tte various journals otthe country. He (Mr. Howard) would take this occasion, so far as he was concerned, to contradict the tact. Congress has never proposed to tun insurgent Slates that it they would adopt the present pend ing amendment of the Constitution, or any other amendment to the Constitution, they should be readmitted as States of the Uniou, and allowed to participate in the legislation of Congress. Con gress, at the last session, afier the most mature de liberation, saw fit to propose an additional article to the Constitution of the United States, which, upon being ratified by three. fourths of the States ol course, said Mr. Howard, 1 mean ihroe-fourtha of the States in the Union, and not out of the Union Mr. SUMNER Yes, not including the rebel Stntes. Mr. HOWARD Yes; that then it. should be a part of the Constitution". Hut neither of the com mittee of llfteen, nor either House of Congress, so fur as mv memory serves ine. has ever made such a proposition as that the rebel States shall be re admitted upon the ratification by them of this ume ndment. Mr. NORTON, of Minnesota I would like to inquire ol the Senator from Michigan if he did not, in the city of St. Paul, urge and argue in a speech that by the adoption of the amendment the rebel States would obtuiu representation, and that such action by them would be the settlement of the Whole question I Mr HOWARD I understand the question of the Hon. Senator jvom Minnesota. 1 know not what report of my speech he may have eeen, but I am ready to sny now that I did not then and there make any bucIi statement. It I was so understood 1 was most grossly misunderstood. Mr. NORTON I would state to the Senator that he was so leported, nnd that the speech he made was cited in opposition to an assertion made of the opposite character. Mr. HOWARD Of course I am entirely igno rant cf the report which may have been made of my speech, and ulso of the sense in which it may have been understood by tbe public or by the au dience who listened. 1 know very well what my objects were, und what my language, so fur us the EUbstance is concerned, was. 1 never mud aty such stuteineiit, and I shall never agree, let me say to the Senator lrom Minnesota, und to others, to any such thing. I Will not agree that the Slate of South Carolina, in adopting that amendment of the Constitution, shall instantly be ret.omnted into Congress; nor will I agree ihu. Alabama or Mississippi or Ueorgia, aud last of ail, Texas, shall be admitted to their seats in Con gress ou going through with what would certainly be, in iheir case, the mere furce of rutlfyiug that amendment to the Constitution. I think we have iiot been to blind, Mr. President, us to offer sucu a proposition to the rebel States. We have not agreed ibat they mipht come back here to resume tneir seals simply because they should ratify that aniei.dir.ent, leaving Hie question undecided und unceittiiu us to the llnal ratification of that amend ment bv all the Slates. Mr. Howard then explained, as he said, how the mistake he relerred lo gained currency. What the Committee on Reconstruction did propose at. the last tttsiuu wus, that upon the ratillcation of the amendment bj' iho States of the south, and its adoption us i part of the Constitution, they should be admitted. This hill was not passed. It was laid in the table in the House. In conclusion, Mr. Howard relerred lo what had been said by gentle men en the opposite tide, thit It was the principal object ol ibe friends ol this bill to increase the power ot the Republican party In the Senate. He was very willing to admit that he did desire to Btrei:gtheii the Republican parly here. He believed ihe good of the couniry demanded it. Mr. Johnson uuu oeciareu in ai, xouis ins in tention to veto all the bills passed by the present Congress. It the president was sincere in that de. duration, then be (Mr Howard) would ask his trierds here whether it was not high time that the Th'itv-uinth Congress should fortify iiself, and so act, through their numerical strength in liiese two bodies, that the interests cl the country shall not culler by this tbieateiied promiscuous and wanton use of -the veto power by Freoldeut Johuson. He threatens to veto all our legislation. It this shall be bis purpose, sir, if it is his tititerimuauott to treat this Congress as a Obnrping body, as being nn unconstitutional body not to be trusted with the business of legislation for the reason that they have not seen Hi to ndopt his policy for the readmission of Ibe rebel Stntes, then It Is perfectly obvious that no legislation can be got through Congress unless we can csrry it over bis veto by a vole of two thirds of each of the two bodies. Mr. JOHNSON, of Maryland, took the floor at the conclusion of Mr. Howard's speech, In opposi tion to the bill, and to Mr. Brown's amendment. There was great danger, he said, to be apprehended lrom the admission ol too many new States. There was reason to tear: it had been feared, when the Constitution was formed, that lu this way the whole legislature of ihe country would be inflo enced by those new States. He argned against giving lo Nebraska the same power In the Senate over a question of tariff that belonged to the east ern Staies. The question of reconstruction had nothing to do with it. it should be decided In Its merits, without reference to otner political Issues. He was oppoted to the amendment of Mr. Brown, because it in volved conditions that Congress had no right to Impose. Mr. WILs-ON, of Massachusetts, moved to amend Mr. lirown's amendment by providing for the ratification ot the fundamental conditions of no exclusion from political rights on account of color by the Legislature of Nebraska, instead of, as in Mr. Brown's amendment, by the people of the territory. Mr. Wilson explained his position In offering the above. At the last session of Congress he was In favor of the admission of Colorado, and was w illing to Fee it done without any conditions, but the necessity tbat controlled his vote in that ques tion hud passed aw ay. The Senate was assured of a two-tbiids Republican vote, aud alter the fourth of March it would be still stronger. He hoped Mr. llrown would accept his amendment, and thnt Mr. Wade would let the bill be amended and passed. Mr. DOOLITTI-E, ol Wisconsin, desired to In quire ot Mr. Wilson whether it was his under standing lhat tbe fallh of Congress was pledged, in case the constitutional amendment was adopted by tbe States of the south, that they would be enti tled to representation. He understood the Senator from Ohio to say tbat he (Mr. Wade) regarded Congress as pledged to admit the States on the rati fication of the amendment. Mr. WADE said he was misunderstood on what he had said. He did not state, or intend to be un derstood, that when these Slates adopted the con stitutional amendment they were entitled to coin In here at all hazards. The proposition to which he (Mr. Wade) adhered was that when the consti tutional amendment was adopted by three.fourths of the States, und adopted by the seceded Stales, iheir relations to the general government were such that it they applied for admission in a loyal lorm, nil other things being equal, they ougat lo be admitted, il repreiented by loyal men. Mi. WILSON, ot Massachusetts, denied Mr. Doolittie's right to ask the question propounded by Mr. DoolitLle. He (Mr. Wilson) had voted for the admission of Tennessee because she had adopted the amendment, and inignt have felt bound to admit other States if they had come at that time in the same way. Hut since then the people had expresstd themselves. There was no law pledging Congress to admit the rebel States on the adoption of the amendment, and he did not Intend to vote for the admission of the rebel States now until they had secured lull civil and political rights to c lored persons. He intended to go to the lui thest limit of constitutional power. Mr. DOOLITTLE replied to Mr. Wilson, argu ing against the theory that the southern States were States lor the purpose of acting upon a con stitutional amendment, but were not States for the righl of representation in Congress. t Mr. F ESSEN DEN, of Maine, said the men pre tendirg to act upon constitutional amendments Were not the legislature, unless Congress saw fit to reccgnlze them es such. This view was set forth in the report of the Reconstruction Committee. For himself he did not know what he should do In n specific case. His understanding was that he hnd a right to inquire whether the amendment wes adopted by a loyal legislature which he was bound to recognize. This was a question he had a right to examine. He was free to say if from the government of a Stale ho saw it had a constitution under which it would be safe to admit it, he would be willing to admit it; with regard to the new for nation of these States, he held that he had a right to inquire what kind of constitution they had. It might be a question preliminary with hits, after these States had adopted the amendment, whether they had a government which gave them the right to adopt it. He would not yield one iota of the guarantees insisted upon, and such further guarantees as might be needed. He did not know that any other -would be necessary. Mr. DOOLITTLE resumed the llcor, contend ing that the Committee on Reconstruction, by re porting a bill to admit any of the rebel Suites that miclit ratify ihe amendment, bud committed itself on this subject to the coctrine that the State go vernments ol tbe south were valid. Mr. RKOWN, at 4 15, moved that the Senate ad journ. Lost. Yeas 11, nays 25. Mr. DAVIS, of Kentucky, would like to know ol Mr. Fessenden whether, il the State of Tennes see hud Hot ratified the amendment, but had adopted the constitution she now has. he (Mr. Fessenden) would have voted for the readmission of that State! Mr. HENDRICKS, of Indiana, nddressed the Senate in opposition to Mr. Brown's amendment. Mr. SUMN ER again urged an adjournment. Itr. HENDRICKS asked Unit there be an agree ment to vote on the pending bill to-morrow at lour o'clock. IVlr. WADE said he would be willing to agree to that if it were cei tain that there would be a quo rum here to vote to-morrow. The Senate then, at 5 P. M., again refused to ad journ. Tbe question was then taken on the amendment ctl'rrtd by Mr. Cowan yesterday, that the people of Nebraska shall ov.e a paramount allegiance to the United States, Jcc. Disagreed to. The next question was upon Mr. Wilson's amendment to Mr. lirown's amendment. At 0 J.r Mr. HENDERSON moved to adjourn. Mr. WADE, ot Ohio, called for the jea3 and nsys. Disagreed to yeas lo, nays 2(1. Mr. SUMNER, of Massachusetts, moved that the pending amendment be printed, lor the use of the Senate. Disagreed to, Mr. SUMNER said there was a time when Mr. Wade could see importance in a question invol ving human rights. Mr. Wade was now trying to pass through the Senate a bill in direct violation of human rights. At tbe conclusion of , his remarks he ngtuamoved an adjournment, which wus again deleuied yeas U, iiuvs id. Mr. WADE took the lloor in reply to Mr. Sum iter. Mr. HENDRICKS moved to postpone the fur ther consideration of the bill until the 7iu of Janu ary next. Mr. KIRKWOOD, of Iowa, said he could not hear Mr. Sumner characterize the constitution of Nebraska as odious without entering his protest against it. The constitution of Nebraska was in this respect precisely tbe same as the constitution of Iowu. Mr. SUMNER asked it he (Mr. Kirkwood) thought tbat that provision ot the constitution of Iowa was right ! Mr. KIRKWOOD I'll say to the Senator that it is none ot his business. It is the business of the people cf Iowa. Mr. SUMNER resumed the lloor. The constitu tion ot Iowa was not before the Senate. If it was, he should express his opinion on it. Mr. SUMNER, at six o'clock, moved un adjourn ment. Yeas II, nays In. Mr. POM ROY, of Kansas, took the lloor In opposi'ion to Mr. lirown's amendment. Mr. EDMUNDS rose to address the Senate, but yielded atslx.iv. enty to a motion to adjourn, which prevailed. House of Ki-prestu tut Ives. On motion of Mr. WENT WORTH, of Illinois, the President wus requested to furnish copies of all papers in his possession touching the case of Colonel George St. Leger Urenfels, convicted by military commission us one of the leuders In tbe conspiracy to release rebel prisoners at Camp Douglas, Chicago, and burn the city, and was sen tenced to death there'or, which sentence was com muted to Imprisonment for life, and whose pardon in lull wus now recommended by tbe Florida Le gislature. Ou motion of Mr. STEVENS, of Pennsylvania, the Senute amendments to the Deficiency bill were taken lrom the Speaker's table aud con curred iu. On motion ot Mr. WARD, of New York, the Secretary ot the Navy was directed to communi cate a statement of ibe amounts charged to tbe State Department since the 1st of May, lSii5, for services rendered by naval vessels. The House proceeded in the morning hour to call on the committees lor reports. The bill reported yesterday bv Mr. McRuer, from the Committee on Publio Lands, to amend the act granting lands to Oregon to aid in the "on structiou of a military road lrom Eugene City to the eastern boundary of Oregon, was taken up, reud tne third time, aud by a vote of yeas ?!), nays lili, passed. Mr. McRUER, of California, from the Commit, tea ou Publio Lands, reported a bill grunting laud to aid in tbe construction of a inilitiry wagon read from Dallas City, on the Colombia river. The bill wus explained and advocated by Messrs. McRuer und Henderson, aud opposed by Mr. Lu plgnd, who tuid that the quantity jt p-aoac laud given away for private purposes had become alnrming. On motion ol Mr. THAYER, of Pennsylvania, an amendment was inserted that the rrant made by tbe bill should not embrace any mineral lands of the United States. The bill was passed yeas 7fi, nays 37. Mr. DRiaOS, from thesame committee, report ed a bill to smend the act of March 3d, 1h3, grant, ing land to Kansas for railroad purposes. It na. thorlzes the construction of any portion of the Atchison, Topeka and Senta Fe Railroad, in a way suitable tar the nse of a steam traction en. gUe, with Its train of cars, and reduces the grant of land from ten sections per mile to five sections. The bill, after some debate, was recommitted. Mr. HOLMES, from the same committee, re. ported back the bill to amend the second section of the act to authorize the Legislature of Illinois, Arkansas, Louisiana and Tennessee to sell school lands. The biil proposes to permit these Legisla tures to lease for fifteen years the mineral lands contained In the grants. Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, said lie should not voto for any bill recognizing any ol those rebel legisla tures or bogus States. He suggested a proviso that the act should not apply to any of the late re bel States. The amendment was agreed to, and the bill passed. Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, offered a resolution to pay to Messrs. Arnell, Cam bell and Hawkins, members from Tennessee, mileage lor the last ses sion. He said they hud been In attendance daring a part of the session before the State was admitted. Relerred to the Committee on Mileage. On motion of Mr. JULIAN, the Committee on Public Lauds was instructed to Inquire into the expediency of amending the Homee'etul act, so as to require from the settler sn oath that he had not bon e arms sgninet the United States. Mr. 1NGERSOLL ottered a resoln'.lon In refer ence to contracts lor Indian goods, whua had been objecitd to this morning, and it was agreed to. . The House then went into Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, Mr. LAW. RENCE, ol Pennsylvania, in the chair, and re. sumed the consideration of the Legislative, Execu tive ajid Judicial Appropriation bill. Mr. URINNELL, of Iowa, moved to strikeout of the paragraph tor clerical assistants in the Ex ecutive department the words, "clerk of pardons.-' He did eo in viw ol the improper use of the par doning power, and referred to the fact that the greatest pirate of the century had received a par don and had been elected professor of moral phi losophv in a southern college. Mr. WENTWORTH, of Illlnoio. opposed the amendment on the ground that the President had been called upon lor Information In reference to pardons, nud It wonld be impossible for the Presi dent to rake them all out with his own hands. He found that the Florida Legislature of traitors had been recently visiting the Dry Tortugas and in vestigating the claims of persons there to pardon, and hud tuken np the case of Orenielt, the notorious leutler of Ihe conspiracy to burn Chicago. He thought the President would certainly require the services of a clerk of pardons. Mr. SCOFIELD, of Pennsylvania, sustained the amendment, and said he had learned that all the pardons gent south by the Adams Express Company were marked with the letters and figures "C. O. D. $3(Hi," meaning collec'. on delivery, and that that sum was collected on each of them. Mr. WARD, of New York, suggested that it was chenp enough. (Laughter.) Mr. SCOFIELD would not assert triat such was the lact, nlthough he had thought the authority for the statement was good. The amendment was agreed to, and the words "clerk of pardons" were struck from the hill. Mr. BENJAMIN, of Missouri, moved to add to the paragraph appropriating six millions for col. lectors and assessors of internal revenue a pro viso that no collector or assessor should be enti tled to salary until confirmed bv the Senate. Mr. CHANLER, of New York, opposed the amendment, arguing that It would simply amount to an intimation to those ollicers that they should help themselves. He thought there was quite cor ruption enough in the internal revenue depart ment without holding ont an additional incentive to fraud. Mr. BINGHAM, of Ohio, suggested a modiflca tion to the amendment, so us to except cases of commissions to 1111 vacuncies tbat may have hap pened, by death or resignation, during the recess of the Senate. He declared that while the President was armed by the Constitution with all executive power, it had never been pretended that, under pretence of executing the laws, he could remove men lrom office, not because of incapacity, not be cause of infidelity to duty, but because of eminent capacity, stern fidelity to duty, and an unwilling ness to be corrupt to their trust. Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania, inquired whether President Lincoln did no', during his whole terra, exercise that power.in the same man ner os President Johnson was said to have done! Mr. BINGHAM reminded Mr. Randall that he spoke of removals for corrupt purposes. Mr. RANDALL suggested that it was not for him lo examine into the motives of either President Lincoln or President Johnson in the exercise ot their powers. Mr. BINGHAM went on to explain his ideas on the subject of appointments to and removals from cilice, and said that if they were made by the Pre sident tor corrupt purposes he was guilty of a high crime and misdemeanor, and the decision of that question belonged, in the first place, to the Honse. Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania, suggested tbat the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. iiiiighain) had given him some sort of notice of what he was go ing to do with the President. He (Mr. Randall) doubted not that the President's acts would stand by themselves, and therefore the sooner he (Mr. Bingham ) commenced his work and ceased threat ening the better. Mr. BINGHAM remarked that he had not said What he was going to do. Mr. BENJAMIN modified his amendment so as to make It read, "Provided that no assessor or col lector not appointed to fill a vacancy caused by death or resignation shall be entitled to or paid any portion tf the salary pertiining to the office, unconfirmed by the Senate." Mr. O'NEILL, of Pennsylvania, desired to state the difference between Mr. Lincoln's and Mr. Johnson's acts In reference to political appoint meats, to far us Philadelphia was concerned. Mr. ST EVENS insisted that athe debate should be confined closely to the snbject'of the bill. Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania, hoped his colleague (Mr. O'Neill) would be allowed to go on. as he (Mr. Randall) would like to clean ban out on tbat issue. (Laughter.) Mr. O'NEILL went on to say that within the last lew months a Board ot Naval Ollicers sat in the Philadelphia Navy-yard, in judgment on the political status of the poor mechanics of the yard, inquiring whether they belonged to the political organization opposed to the policy of Andrew Johnson. Mr. RANDALL said he condemned as much as his colleague did, the act to which be alluded, but thut that board emanated from the Commodore of the yard, a Republican, aud, so soon as it became known to the Navy Department, it wus counter manded. Mr. O'NEILL said that men were discharged from the Philadelphia Navy-yard who dared to say they were In favor ot Congress. Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania, said that Mr. Lincolu, while he wus President, hud written un autograph letter to the workingmen in the Phila delphia Navy-yard, expressing the sentiment that he, (Jlr. Randall,) who was then a candidate for Congress, should be defeated at all hazards. He felt humiliated that the President should have done such an act. His colleague was aware that during the administration of President Lincoln a secret committee was organized in Philadelphia, beaded by un ex-sherirt, to inquire into the politics of every man, woman aud child who was in the employment of the government. Every woman employed in the United States Arsenal whose bro ther happened to be a Democrat was dismissed. Ami yet his distinguished colleague had the ef. irontery to complain of removals by Presideut Johnson- lie (Mr. Randall) was on!y sorry the President htd not carried tbe war lurther into Aliica. Mr. O'NEILL was pleased to hear his colleague express his humiliation at tbe employment of a naval board, at Philadelphia, to inquire iuto the politics of employes. He considered it a high crime und misdemeanor in the secretary of tne Navy to cull upon ollicers lo perform such mii'. able work. Many of the men who were thus ait. cbait!'rt hd passed a competitive examination. Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania Yes, and some ol them were indicted for stealing. (Laugh ter ) Ur. STEVENS made the point of order that this discussion was entirely foreign to the matter before the committee. The CHAIRMAN sustained the point of order, and declured that such discussion must cease. The question was taken on Air. Benjamin's amendment us modified, and it was adopted. Mr. MA YNARD, of Tennessee, moved to amend the item for temporary Treasury clerks, by giving the Secretary authority, in his discretion, to em. ploy ladies when their services can oe made eguully profitable. Adopted. Mr. FARNSWORl'H, of Illinois, moved to gtrlke out ihe whole paragraph. Mr. LE BLOND, of Ohio, opposed the amend ment. He remarked that his colleague (Mr. Bing ham) had thrown out an intimation thut removal lrom olllce for political reasons was corruption. Mr. BINGHAM denied thnt. he had said any. bins Ol the sort. Cj. tbeWBtrejyeettCeipan be tome apology or txense for such utterances as these of his colleague, he had qualified his Ian. gunge and excluded any such conclusion. He had stated that where the President of the United States made a removal from oMice corruptly and for personal ends, he was guilty of a high crime and misdemeanor, and that the Constitution cbarg. ed the members of this House, on their oaths, to make that Inquiry and decide that question. Mr. LE BLOND Does my colleague wish It understood that a removal from ofltce lor political reasons Is a high crime and misdemeanor! Mr. BINGHAM 1 have not made an intima tion which wonld justify any such inquiry. 1 am free to say that where a removal is made merely because of personal considerations toward tbe party interested, and not because of personal con siderations on the part of the Executive, that be ing In accordance with the continued practice of tbe government from Its organization down to this time, would not be a high crime and misdemeanor. Is my colleague Informed now t Mr. CHANLER desired lo ask Mr. Bingham a question, but Mr. Bingham declined to yield. He hnd ottered the proviso for the purpose of prevent ing what be believed to be a flagrant violation of the text nnd spirit of the Constitution He thought tbe words "by death or resignation" should be emitted, leaving only the words used In the Con stitution as to vacancies which "may happen." Gentlemen might say that would be nugatory, aud be believed It would unless the House proceeded with the legislation already Inaugurated, and deter mine by law tbe legal effect nnd meaning of the constitutional phrase "which may happen during the recess of Ibe Senate." But that was not in order now, nnd he had only said this much in order to vindicate his own position and correct the remarks of his col league. Mr. CHANLER thought this nmendmeut called up the question he had discussed some months since in reference to patronage In tbe distribution of clMce9. Mr. FARNSWORTH called the gentleman to order. The nmendmeut he had offered had no poll tical bearing. Mr. CHANLER declared he was not speaking to any political question, but he thought that the pnrt of political bully, so often played In the House, was performed with better grace hy the individual (Mr. Farnswortb) than any other ou that side of ihe Honse. He (Mr. Cbanler) wus for the limitution of executive power, and for the limitation of patronage, and for the distribution of otllces through the representatives ot the people. That was the only wholesome basis on which the Democratic party could exist. (Laughter.) He (banked the gentleman from Illinois tor bringing tbe matter before the House. He could not sup port the policy of Abraham Lincoln, even though it were under the protection of Andrew Johnson, and what was done under the plea of military ne cessity should not, with the aid of his vote, be done when thut plea no longer existed. He (Mr. Cbanler) was not for excluding white men li'oin oflices in the Treasury for the purpose of letting in black women, and cared nothing for the gentle roan's (Mr. Farnsworth's) love of philanthropy or love of females. (Laughter.) Mr. STEVENS, ol Pennsylvania, made some remarks calculated to bring back the committee to the question under consideration. He condemned the uotion of Ihe Secretury of the Treasury iu the distribution among tbe clerks of the approprititiou made for extra ccmpe.nsntion. He found its vinly justification in tbe Bible, a book, however, which was not good au'nority in this House, (laughter,) us it took from those who had nothing and gave to those who had much. The discretion conlerred on the Secretary in that matter had been need with out discretion, und with gross partiality for two yenrs post. The question was then taken on Mr. FARNS. WORTH'S amendment to strike out the whole pa ragraph for extra compensation, and it was agreed to. On motion of Mr. HARDING, of Illinois, nn nmendment was adopted directing prelerence to be given iu the making of appointments to persons in indigent circumstances, nud the dependents of those who had lallen in the service of the country. Pending the consideration of the paragraph ap propriating tSti.OOO for seeds to be distributed hy the Agricultural Department, which appropria tion Mr. FARNSWORTH moved to cut down to ti(i,(i(io. and Mr. MORRILL to f lO.Out), the Com mittee rose. On motion of Mr. DEMING, of Connecticut, the President was requested to commuuicate all correspondence between our government and tbat of Great Britain on the subject of the joint occupancy of the island of San Juan, Washington territory. On motion of Mr. RANDALL, of Kentucky, the President was requested to communicate any fur ther information iu reference to the occupation of Mexican territory by United States troops that he may have received since his message of the fcth. instant on the Rame subject. Mr. HALE, of New York, proposed that to morrow be devoted to debate in Committee of the Whole on the President's annual message. Mr. STEVENS hoped no such arrangement would be made. It there was no quorum present to-morrow, the neci wouia oe to go into commit. lee lor general ueuaie; uui lie uiu nui wuui uj nx that now, when they were about adjourning for two weeks. Mr. WASIIBURNE, of Illinois, remarked that a good many members had been pressing for the lloor in Committee of the Whole, desiring to make speeches, and be thought that no time would be lost by devoting to-morrow to general debate, i Mr. STEVENS suggested us an amendment, "to ' morrow and every day during; the vacation." (laugnter. ) The SPEAKER Intimated that that amendment was hardly in order, as both Houses had resolved not to be iu session. Without making auy definite arrangement on tbe subect, but with the general understanding thut tbe proceedings to-morrow would be conlined to generul debate, the House, at 4 o'clock P. M., adjourned. Cohrection. The speech made by Mr. Hise, of Kentucky, last Monday, against the theory of ter ritorial governments for the south, is attributed in the New York papers, probably tbrough inadver tence of copyists, to Mr. Hill, of Indiana, whose political opinions are the opposite ol those of Mr. Hise WASHINGTON. Washington, December 19. Governor Worth's Visit. The visit of Governor Worth and others to Washington bad nothing whatever to do with po litical matters, as has been stated. Their visit was with reference to the order of General Sickles for bidding corporeal punishment from being inflicted by the Courts of Ihe State, and the order from the Freeumen's Bureau forbidding the binding out of colored orphans after ihcy are over fourteen years of age. The delegation to-day had separate interviews with the President and General Howard. The ex planations and representations made will, it Is be lieved, lead to an urrungement satisfactory to all parties interested in these questions. Executive Pnrdocs. The President has directed a warrant of pardon to be issued to Hiluire De Vlitilt, convicted in Sep tember, lstid, in the United States District Court of Massachusetts, of smuggling, and sentenced to pay a tine of fISCO. Also, to Egisto De la Borne, convicted In Feb ruary, l'-titi, in the United States District Court of New Jersey, of having in bis possession counter feit bank notes, und sentenced to three years im prisonment. IT. S. Supreme Court. The United States Supreme Court is now en gaged in hearing the arguments in the famous prize case of the Peterboff, a British vessel cap. tured by the United States steamer Vnnderbilt, in February, l-ti2, on the way to Matamorus. The case attracts great interest, as it involves the pre. tended neutral trade of Matamoras. The lion. Titian J. Cclfey, ot Philadelphia, and Assistant Attorney General Ashton represent the govern, me ni, ui d Judges Marvin and Sherwood and A. F. Smith, Eeq , ot New York, tbe claimants. The New York bank tux cases will next be argued. lteorgnmzatiou of the Rebel States. The House Committee on Territories have under consideration Ibe several hills relerred to them providing lor the reorganization of the southern States. A majority of the committee favor soma such arrangement, and during the Christmas holi days, lien. Ashley, the Chairman, will prepare a bill in accordance with their views. Representative Julian, of Indiana, to-day re ceived a letter from Mobile, Alabama, in which tbe writer represents there are 15,lMl persons, while and black, in that vicinity, who are pleased with bis bill giving the southern States territorial governments preliminary to their complete restci. ration. In i espouse to the question what, they shall do to help the measure, he has advised that its friends send petitious to Congress and hold public meetings. Speeches to be Made. At least thirty members of the House have en. tered their names as candidates tor the floor lo make speeches on the President's annual message. The Mint. The Superintendent of the Mint shows that the gold, silver and copper coinage from l'ti'J to IMiti, inclusive, is $Vti7,$Ui,udU. The gold coinage was abont H.',,5no,(iOff the Ver f l3,:i:i.,M, and the copper tS.StitJ.ooo.

As there was a subsequent Increase, t he directors ihink that the business ol the entire year will be lully up to the average. Letter of the Consul nt Crete. W. J. Stlllmnn, United States Cousul at Crete, under date of yet. 14, writing to the Secretary of State, says: "1 have the honor to Inform you that a battle, o apparently great severity, was fought near The riso,' ten miles from this place, ouring tbe three days peeredlng to-day, between ihe government forces, numbering about 211,100 men, and the In surgent Christians. We are not able to get any re. liable news, but as the report of tbe artillery was distinctly audible from here, and the smoke visible, we could see that the place of combat was un changed, and that It had not drawn near to The riso, which wns understood to b tbe object of the movement, as we perceive the tiring has entirely censed In that direction to-day, and hearing a rn mor that they are being severely repulsed. Th bashaw has changed his attack to a flunking move ment, which accords with what we see and learn from the peasants. 1 judge that we may conclude that the movement on which be was to depart may be regarded as a failure. "I regret to say that the Turkish troops are con ducting ihe war with great barbarity, killing many luotlensive peisons and destroying all the towns they pass through. Volunteers are arriving from. Greece with supplies and ammunition, and it teems likely that If Europe should not Interfere we shall -have a leng tnd desolating war of it, and Crete will be thrown back a quarter of a century, what, ever may be tbe event of the war. 1 hope that our government will be able iu some way to contri bute to the relief of the unfortunates who are al ready deprived of all provisions made against the winter, and were in many cases without any means of obtaining a living bv the indiscriminate eeverity of the government forces, wno destroy not only stores of provisions, &.c but also the bouses and implements, nnd in many cases tbe vineyards of those whose only offence has been to escape at the approach cf u soldiery of whose humanity they have good reason 10 doubt. If the charity of the frierdsof humani.ty is not large towuids the Cre tuns, thousands must perish ibe coming winter." The Lund Office. Returns received nt the General Land Office show that during the month of November 2.50 acres of the public lands were sold for actual set tlement und cultivation under the Homestead act, at the Boonsville (Missouri) olllce. l rom Miiiiishne.
