ANT MEASIIUES ACTED ON.—The report of the Oa eeedings of the close or the second session of the thirtieth Congress, which will be found on Or fourth page, is replete with interest; though -t'2.'. Will be seenAhat three of those mortifying seenesef lance have .again desecrated the hour of.CangtOss; and that blued has beenypilt within the 'Mote 0/.. legislation A ddrictilly t it Seems; 4k/ occurred between fr. Giddings, of Ohio, andAlr. Meade, of Va., whilh, althoughlD C4lieg som.e disturbance, did not proc ed to personal violence. This or:ginated; we belieke, iti ieference•ta the territorial , question and the,Vifil mot proviso. The row occurred at a very late.hour, between Robert Wi...Tolineon, of Arkansas; Orlando. O. Picklin, of:Ohio, and William M. Inies, of Alabama. Mr. Fieklin.,called -Mr. Johnsod a puppy," when be semis to have - been justly :at tacked by M. Johnson and Mr, Inge, the atriking him with ii,cane, which drew blood from the , head with which it came in com Met. ;. The . Gaulle, • Shortly after, adjourned, asordercould nolongeribe preserved. • • - The Senate was also disgraced by a scene ofsonlie what the same character, between Mr. Canaeronj of Pennsylvania, and Mr. Fliate, of Mississippi—the latter receiving a blow In his face from the formkr, as a retort to some offensive personal remarks. The business transacted during the day and night,. itxnvrll be seen, was quite iraportant. The bill crea. ting a Nome , 'Department' ot the Government, was. passed by the Senate, iind received the Presideqtts signature, as did olso.the Gold Dollar bill, which al-' so provides for the coinage - 0f gold $2O pieces. The California question seemed lobe the exciting topic of debate up almost to the hour of adjourment in both Houses, but all the measures proposed tor providing egovernmelbt for Califunna ' CiVll, or Toili; tary, were finally dropped, and' the bills to' which they had been attached passed. California and New Mexico, must, therefore, remain without any ,ottier government than they now :have, 'unless' the Presi dent should deem himself authorized in sant on his own responsibility in the matter. • A variety of other important measures were acted upon, which will be found duly recorded—neither 'louse adjourning tiff long I fter midnight. : The debate on abolishing flogging is the Navy, closed with the following noble. sentiments from Mr. Benton, a'cribn who is always to be found on the •do of justice and humanity. .. " I am not in favor of scourging American .citi zees. Allman citizen could not be scourged, and I believe an American citizen is 011111 high an order of men as were Roman citizens.. Roman citizens were employed both by sea and byland, in the ar my and in the navy, and, there was no scourging.; that was reserved for Slaves, for barbarians, for those below the dignity of a Roman It may be said that some persons are bad enough to be whipped, but question if whipping will eireet a *ohm. I alai , ' question if it is worth white to make the °tricorn of the navy the instruments or agents to correct the:in corrigible part of mankind. It is better, sir, to get them out of the navy and have' nothing to do with them. I feel a deep mortifiCation, air, in edeing .anact---one who is brave—one who, will dio in de fence of his.country, either in the army .or navy= tied up and flogged. I feel humiliated, sir, by such a spectacle; and I should like to have the subject properly examined." Treasury Notes Ontstsitidlog lit ~lareli, TREASINVV.DEPARTMENT, Register's Office, March 1,1849.
