dent of the United States, in obedience to a re
solution of the Senate, of the 15th inst., en
closing a report from the Secretary of State,
relative to the establishment of a monarchical
government in Central and South America,
which wasreferred to the Committee on Foreign
-Relations, and ordered to he printed."
Mr. Anthony (E. I.) presented the resolu
tions of the Legislature of Rhode .-Island in
fever of Surgeon McGowan’s projected expedi
tion to Eastern and Central Asia.
. Mr. Trumbull introduced a bill to construct a
Canal from tbo Mississippi to Lake Michigan,
for the passage of armed and naval vessels,
which was releried to the Committee on Naval
Mr. Powell called up his resolution request
ing the President to furnish the Senate with

Which was adopted.
Mr. Doolittle (Wis.) introduced a bill to aid

Committee on Indian Affairs.
Mr. Harlan introduced a joint resolution ex
planatory of the tenth section of the “Act to
reduce the expenses of surveys ol land of the
United States. »
By a defect of this law, money deposited in
accordance with its provisions to pay for sur
veys; cannot he paid out without au appropria
tion. This resolution adords a remedy.
Mr. Harlan reported, from the Committee on
Public Lands, a bill to extend the eighth sec
tion ol “an act to appropriate the proceeds of
the sales of the public lands, and to grant pre
emption rights.” Its design is to extend to
Kansas the benefits of that bill, with authority
to devote the income accruing to tne support
of common schools.

the mails overland from Atchison, in Kansas,
to Folsom, in California.
The appropriation is limited to $1,000,000.
and the transit to sixteen days during eighth
months, anti twenty days for four months of the
year. The Pacific railroad as fast as completed
shall take the place -of the overland mail service.
The Senate proceeded to the unfinished busi
ness ci yesterday, thebil! to prevent military
interference in elections.
Mr. Sanlshnry (Del.) said that the Senator
from Michigan <Mr. Howard) had said the time
was tmpropirivins for the passage of such a bill
as this. He would commend to him, and
others who thought like him, the example of a
distinguished British statesman, who, when the
rights of English subjects were at stake, rose
in his place in Parliament and declined to dis
cuss the question .of war so long as private
rights were in jeopardy. Underthese constart
encroachments of power we shall wake up here
after and find that the dream that we have been
indulging in was a delusion. . Our constitu
tional rights were secured to ns not only for
times of peace hut-times of war. These were
as rudders to the . ship, and if abandoned the
ship was lost. Neither is the pretext that the
surrender of these liberties was temporarily
necessary for their permanent preservation of
any force. What an absurdity is the idea that
the Union can be preserved by the destruction
of the Constitution. In his opinion, those who
have taken matters In hand have not the pre
servation of the Constitution at heart. Let
any public man say that he was in favor of the
Union as it was, and the Constitution as it is,
and what is the judgment passed upon him ?
Why that he is a disloyal man, and unfaithful
to the Government under which he lives; and
the noblest of all sentiments uttered in this
day is abjadged by the very men gniltv of per
petrating acts in violation of the Constitution
as disloyal. < -
He thought that the only'disloyal men and
traitors in this country were those who scouted
the Constitution. It was to that Constitution,
and that alone, that he owed his allegiance.
Had he a right to cherish any love or attach
ment to anything else beside the Union and
the Constitution? Those who advocate a
policy of destruction of these are the real trai
tors, and deserve to be branded as such; yet
so enormous have been the abuses perpetrated
hy this Administration* that the power that sits
enthroned at the other end of the avenue finds
it necessary to send armed forces into a State
to prevent a free people from expressing their
iove for a free constitution, made by their
farhers, and under which they still desire to
™eir only disloyalty arises from the
tact of their following in the precepts of their
TTn- erS ’ be asked to support a hew
Union under the oath he took ? Was he asked
to enter the new house built by Butler on the
A^ on r ° d fabrio bnilt by-Washington,
Adams, Jefferson and Madison? His people
did not desire to enter the beauteous palace of
Archbishop Butler, in spite of the adornment
~, b ' ch s h ® Picked up in the Gulf Department,
lney did not desire to look into the costly
irrors, nor to hear the stream s of music from
stolen instruments. They preferred the good
om strains which came up from the past, which
iafan cyand manhood, the
music of the Union and. the Constitution; and
lor a declaration of this kind alone have the
People of what was once his State, but now a
military province, had the tyrannical hand laid
upon them for presuming to vote for the repre
sentatives of their choice. Yet the gentleman
Irom Michigan said if these things were true
they deserved it. .Besides they should con
sider the state of the times. Such a response
as that might, well come from those who desire
to pick up the ertmibs which Pali from the
Presidential table. -

the party of elections. This was partisanship
of the basest kind. It wcnVi be scorned by all
patriotic and honest men. .
■ jj e held that there was a fixed purpose, and
everything is being done to perpetuate the
power of the President for four years, and if
this attempt was nnrebuked by the people by
their votes, this President, with liis army, will
defy the American people after the next four
years shall have expired. 11 he doss not do so
he will he an extraordinary man. He appealed
from Coe tsar to the Senate, and invoked it by
that love .of constitutional liberty which
animated onr fathers, by that love of civil
liberty which caused the effusion of such
precious blood in the revolution, to save ns
Irom the impending military despotism.
The Senate agreed to tho report of the Com
mittee on the West Point Academy bill, and
then adjourned till Monday. •
-HOUSE OF JIEPIIESENTATIVES.
Mr. Clay (Ky.), from the Committee on Ag
riculture, reported. back the Senate bill ex
tending the time in which to accept lands
heretofore donated for agricultural college
purposes, and including West Virginia in its
provisions.
Mr. Holdmankind.) offered an amendment
authorizing Indiana to appropriate its share of
the lands for the education of orphan children
of soldiers and sailors.
Mr. Washburne moved that Illinois be also
similarly authorized; and Mr. Windom asked
that Minnesota he allowed to act in the same
way.
Mr. Morrill (Vt.) opposed all such proposi
tions. The lands might be devoted to deaf,
dumb and blind asylums, and thus the design
ot the law lor Agricultural Colleges in the
States he frittered away.
Mr. Holman did not see how the gentleman
could judge what was best for Indiana.
Mr. Stevens said the donation of the lands
was for national purposes; national property
being appropriated to establish education in
the several States, therefore they should not
countenance the .diversion of the lands for
other objects.
Further consideration of the subject was
postponed for two weeks.
It was agreed that, after to-morrow, Saturdays
should he devoted to public business, instead of
merely to speech-making, and that two weeks
from to-day the District of Columbia business
shall be considered.
The House passed the Senate bill directing
the Secretary of the Treasury to issue to cer
tain parties duplicates of bonds to the amount
of $B,OOO ol the pregon war debt, the originals
having been lost on the Golden Gate.
Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) asked that the National
Bank bill be postponed till Monday, in order to
give the representatives of the New York
Clearing House an opportunity to be heard on
this measure so important- to the financial com
munity.
Mr. Davis (N..Y.) thought that such post
ponement should be granted.
Mr. Stevens said this, bill had been before
the country, ten days. Gentlemen representing
financial interests had all seen it, and some of
them been heard before the Committee of Ways
and Means.
Mr. Hooper remarked that Lyman and Gal
latin were present before the committee, and
had suggested amendments, most of which,
being judicious,were adopted. Tils committee;
however, did not assent to locating the bureau
in New York.
Mr. Stevens would not consent to a post
ponement, and Insisted on the motion previously
offered, that' general debate shall cease in five
minutes.
This was decided in the affirmative bv tho
casting vote of the Speaker.
Mr. Brooks sought to have the question de
cided by the yeas and nays, hut the Speaker
ruled he was too late in making the motion.
Mr. Brooks, however, called the yeas and
nays upon going into Committee of the Whole
on the State of the Union on the amendatorv
National Bank hill.
This was agreed to by 57 against 52.
Mr. Hooper offered an amendment providing
that hanks with a capital or not less than fifty
thousand dollars shall, with the approval ol the
Secretary of the Treasury, he organized in anv
place, the population of which does not exceed
six thousand inhabitants.
Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) objected to giving the
Secretary power to say whether such banks
should he established or not. It was an ex
traordinary discretion which ought not to be
conferred, and it was a dangerous experiment.
Mr. Pruyn (N. Y.) briefly controverted Mr.
Hooper’s former remark, that State banks had
outlived their day, aud said that of the alleged
four thousand millions of public debt, at least'
one hundred millions had been needle'ssly in
curred, owing to the course of the Secretary of
the Treasury.
A quorum rot voting on'the amendment
there was a call of the House. The doors were
closed, and excuses for absentees heard.
Much good humor prevailed throughout
these proceedings.
On motion of Mr. Stevens, warrants of arrest
were ordered to be issued for those who were
not excused for absence.
The Sergeaut-at-Arms brought several pri
soners to the bar, who were discharged on pay
ment of fine and. fees. That officer subse
quently reported to the Speaker that Mr.
Spalding (Ohio) refused to be arrested.
Mr. Spalding, in his seat, addressing the
Speaker, said he would not come to the bar of
the House, as lie did pot deem himseif to be
guilty ot any offeuce.
Mr. Stevens moved an attachment be issued
agaiust the Sergeaut-at-Arms for not obeying
the order of the House.
l b motion was amended at the instance of
Mr. Holman, directing the Sergeant-at-Arms to
show cause why he had not performed his duty
in making the arrest.
After the lapse of some minutes Mr.
appeared before the bar and said he excu °
the Sergeant-at-Arms.
Mr. Cravens moved Mr. Spalding be fiaed
fifty dollars for a contempt of the House.
The Speaker said he thought Mr.'Spaldiag
had obeyed the order.
.Mr. Stevens, said he was ready to vote to
fine the gentleman.
Mr. Spalding explained the cause of his ab
sence from the hall, which was only for a few
moments. He did not consider that lie had
done anything wrong.
Finally, Mr. Spalding was, by a vote of 61
against 21, honorably discharged from custody,
and the House at five o’clock adjoumed.
