It is ,rareV, ipdeed;that'" Don Giovanni" can
receive that full and studious attention !slid' its
many exacting requisitions demand. Seldom has
it boon Putupon the'stege with such perffiot com
pleteness as on this esionsion. Tharesoutied of the
Academy, as regerasseenery, r;reuitsurpassed, and
everything last night was In harmony and correct
netts. In other words, the mice eta scene was very
perfoot and beautiful;
,` The Snob; to Act I, repre
senting tC.bill-toorn, with two orchestras on the
stage, was sumptuous in' the extreme, brilliant with
light, and crowded with gaily attired. persons
There must have been over ' twro hundred on the
stage in thii scene.
The performance woe one of the most brilliant
which has been witnessed in this country. It could
not have been trusted to better bands. Madame
D'Angri, by her admirable Impersonation of Z er.
/ides, added to, the laurels she has so abundantly
woh as a dramatic artist. From the epening scone
to the close she never-failed to win upon the audl
etule, who ware fairly oniaptured With her admire,
bld notes and still more admirable acting. Light,
airy, and over in harmony with the Enna, she im
bued the opera with a:life-like intensity, which
only genies eon bestow,
Madame Do Lagrange, as Donna Anna, seemed
to fall slightly below her Usual excollentatandard,
hei'voice sympathising a little, perhaps, with the
weather. Madame Caradori had an arduous task
to ;exeouto in the role of Donna Elvira, but,
barring an 000aSional roughness In her tones, she
acquitted herself with much credit. As Den Gio
vani, the terrible heart-slayer, the irresistible
fascinator;, Signor ttaisier fairly 'divided the
hohors'of the night with his inimitable and inse
parable companion, Lejarello (Carl Ponies.) We
cannot measure our commendatton in character
izing Signor Formes.
A truer artist we have never had In this country.
Ills by-play; his — comical fade; his comfortable
assurance,. so consistent with the character, added
to , a musical strength, sweetness, and fullness
rarely 'attained by human voice, made his per
format= the finest treatthatwo have yet had in this
country. The recitation of the catalogue of his
master's conquests convulsed the whole house.
Laboootta, as Don Ottavio, sang with much deli
caCy and pathos, adding much brilliancy to all the
concerted passages. In the duet elle giuransento,
with Donna Anna, be was: rewarded with an
encore.
Signor Rocco, as lllasetto, appeared to have far
too subdued and quiet a part, evidently regretting
that he had not the chance to render the charac
ter of Lepers/Th. . Signor Taffitnelli, as the Com ,
niandant, did his share to complete the success of
the piece. As a Whole, we may set down the per
formance as the best over presented in the musical
annals of Philadelphia. It could scarcely be im
proved, and to say this much is according per
haps as much praise as can ever be awarded
under the present condition of sublunary things.
"Don Giovanni" will be repeated on to-morrow
evening, and will,doubtless be a great Gard. This
afternoon there will be a second Matinee, and
"L'ltaliana In Algeria" will be performed. -Tick
ets are on sale at the two offices—at the
,Academy
and at Lee & Walker's, In o,hestnut street.
Several written complaints have reached us re
specting what is considered "sharp practice" on
the part of Mr. Ullman. He is blamed for charging
an extra fifty cents for scouring seats; but con
sidering the expensive company he has, and the
secessions he has made to it even since it came
hare, the public will generally admit, we suspect,
that this Increase was almost inevitable. Ho is
blamed for advertising that, at the matinffei, every
seat would be thrown open to the public: whereas
the holders of season tickets had their seats
expressly reserved for them, and persons, coming
early, who had taken eligible seats, were com
pelled to surrender them to these prior but unan
nounced claimants—which was the reverse of plea
sant. Lastly, some of our correspondents censure
him for having, for last night's performance, raised
the admission to the Family circle from fifty cents
t 4 a dollar. These are the main points, which, per.
haps, Mr. Ullman will consider. •We shall be
happy to publish any statement from him in reply.
[Apropos of the statue of thepleeping genii, now
on exhibition at Earle's, in this city. we copy the
fellowing notice of the young sculptor, by her
friend, Grace GireenvroodA—En. Pnus.
!I was with Miss Meaner some eight months in
Frame and Italy,. and grew to love the woman, as
well as admire the genius. At the time alto wont
abroad she had been scarcely heard of as a Bonin
tor out of Arderica—out of Boston, indeed. Already
'slut has made for herself an enviable and extended
fame in her beautiful art.
Immediately on our arrival In Rome, she was
introduced to Mr. Gibson, the distinguished Eng ! ,
lish sculptor, who; on being shown a daguerreo
type of one of bar Ideal busts,"Hesper, ' was so
much impressed by the genius of the fair Ameri
can, that bo at onoo received her into his studio
as a pupil. She Inns remained with him over since,
and executed several admirable things under his
approving eye. Yet, in the ordinary sense, Miss
Roamer can hardly be called a pupil even of this
Modern master in British sculpture, whom she ve
nerates and loves as an artist and friend. Strong,
self-reliant, and proudly original, oho resolutely
"gangs her ain gait" in her artistic as in her so
cial life, and while she does not reject advice, or
defy criticism io the details of her work, in the
ideal, the spirit, and general mode of treatment,
she bravely abandons herself to the inspirations of
her own genius
Miss Homer's fame is no longer provincial, or
national; she is no longer looked upon as a fair
amateur, as a pretty woman laying with art; but
she is already reoognised in Italy and England as
an artist of unquestionable genius, of whom much
maybe expected. All she has yet done, however
admirable, can but bo looked upon as promises and
prophecies for the future. She is yet, under thirty,
not more than twenty-seven or twenty-bight years
of ago, and is, and always will be, an enthusiastic,
yet patient and conscientious Student of her art
If life and health bo spared to her, what may she
not accomplish, with the indomitable energy, per
severance and profound devotion 'with which she
gives herself rip to her life-work ! I love to think
of the little world of beautiful and majestic forms
which for her lie enchanted In marble, awaiting
the magic wand of her genius; the tap of her
chisel, to awake them from the slumber and free
them from the imprisonment of ages, The tender
faced Madonnas, the etiterial Psyches, the dimpled
Loves, the drooping Magdalones, the bounding
Boehm:des the Rains, the Grimes, the frolicluomo
Sprites, thei Poets, the Gods, and yet the grander
figures of Sainte and Martyrs All this white,
still world of beauty and poetry is, we hope, yet
to be revealed by her hand, as it exists, or as its
types exist in her affluent artist-soul. '
Miss liosmer seems younger than her years. She
is small and rather slight, yet looks vigorous and
muscular. She le a bundle of healthy nerves, en
ergy, and will. She has a fine, strong bead, car
ried with infinite spirit, ilnd crowned with beauti
ful hair, short and curling. Her face is delicate,
fresh And piquant, buffetl of force and character.
Her 'style of dress is slightly on the masculine
order, but neatand peculiarly in keeping with her
profession. In mannerand conversation she is the
furthest, possible removed from a conventional,
fine lady,. yet, nitither IS she coarse, nor un
woodenly.
Miss Homer's early education was peoullar, and
bad much to do not only with the moulding of her
character and the formation of her tastes, but with
fitting her for her present unique and arduous life.
Her, father, Dr. Homer, a man of unusual talent
and force of character, hiving lost his wife and
eldest daughters' by consumption resolved to de
iroto himself to the perfect physical odnoation of
his last child, 'lda little daughter Harriet, who
seamed to have inherited her mother's delicacy of
constitution. Ile took her out into the fields, by
the river side, and sea side; he lot her run wild
em,ong the hills, inured her to pun and storm ;
taught her to ride, drive, hunt, fish, row, skate
and swim. „ In all 'oat-door sports and exercises
she became a profiolont, and. as smatter of course,
grow up strong and vigorous. She is remarkable
for her power of endurance, for steadiness of nerve
amicourage. She Is not only the bravest woman
I have ever Mot, but I know no man more utterly
fearless than, she.

THE LATEST FROM KANSAS.
[From the Detroit Free Press.]
Two days ago we gave returns of the election in
Hanna on the 4th instant, whielreeeresd to leave
no doubt that the free-State ticket bad aeon eioot•
ed, and that both branches of the Loy , mature wore
free State by large majorities. But it was added
that John Calhoun " bad not closed the equnt."
These, to us, were ominous words. They wore
ominous that when John Calhoun should have
closed the oount" the free-State ticket and the
free-State legislative majorities Would be count
ed out." Such turns out to be the fut. They
are "counted out." The latest intelligence is,
that John Calhoun has counted in the pro-slavery
State ticket and a pro-slavery majority in both
branches of the Legislature
The way of it appears t* have been this: Up
turns from .certain precincts wore, through the
misapprehension or Ignorance of the judges, sent
to Governos Denver instead of John Calhoun.
These returns John Calhoun throws out! They
aro not, ho says, legal, according to the Leoomp•
ton Constitution!
This last trick is not more shameless and out
rageous than the whole series of tricks by
which the Lecompton Constitution has been
produced. It is perfectly consistent with
Mr. John Calhounta proceedings through
out. It is of a piece with his Oxford
and McGee frauds, which Governor Walker re
jected, and with his late frauds of John
eon county Kickapoo and Delaware Cross
ings, by which some four thousand fictitious votes
were fabricated for the Lecompton Constitution
with slavery, for the pro-slavery State ticket, and
for the pro-slavery candidates for the Legislature.
We say his frauds, because it has been asserted
by the leading Democratic paper In Kansas, and
never denied by him, that the original Oxford
frauds wore manufactured in John Calhoun's United
States Surveyor General's office, at Locompton.
That leading Democratio paper is the National
_Democrat, at Lecompton.
We shall soon know what will be the tondeney
of events at Washington with respect to this Le
compton Constitution.

DEATH OP WILLIAM E. BARR —We have hitherto
neglected to notice the death of this gentleman,
which occurred at Anton Chico several weeks since.
Mr. Barr was a relative of the late lion, Robert
Barr of Texas, and was himself an old 'Aaiun ; he
participated gallantly in the battle of San Jacinto,
and was, we believe, in several of the other his
torte battles of the Texas revolution, and after
wards did the part of n good soldier in the Mexi
can war. Until recently ho was sergeant-major
in the United States army. Ile was a good and a
bright odd follow, and leaves a wife and children

corroborative of those rumors, save a statement
from agent Stack, that the Plains Indians had
come down into tho Mexican settlements, stolen
and killed stock, and that the Apaches had been
accused of the deprodatione.
We aro inclined to the belief, however, that the
rumors are moro micas true, and that the various
wild tribes of Indians In this Territory are not too
good to scalp a human, steal a mule, or kill a sheep,
whore there Is any ohance of escape from punish

at will over the Territory, outrages and robberies
will most certainly be committed.
[Reported for The Press.]
A OAHE Or WITCOCRAFT.—Mrs. Gretchen Luck
stein, a German lady, complained that her oldest
son, Gotleib, had boon bowitohed by a neighbor of
hers, an old woman named Catharine Freiderman,
who practises the art of fortune-tolling• by the
cards, and is behoved throughout the whole
borhood to be n powerful onoliantress. She kept
a iistyglan pug," or familiar Imp, in the shape of
an ugly little black dog which about two woeks
ago bit Gotlelb'e heel as ho was passing Mrs.
Ereiderman's door, and Gotloth proved the mor-
tality of thecur on the spot by killing him with
a kick of his heavy boot.
"Boon after dot," said Mrs. Lueksteln In court,
"Gotlelb gave up bin place in der sohop vete ho

"And was he fond of work before?" asked tho

"Volt—nlohs," answered Mrs. L. ullo wash

SENATE.
WASIIINOToN, Feb. 1.
Mr. Commits of Wisconsin, presented a pe.
tition signed by ninety-seven citizens of the 'Uni
ted States, praying that measures be taken to par
allax° the Island of Cuba, asd its annexation to
this country.
Mr. Biatmu, of Pennsylvania, introduced a re
solution for the completion and preservation of the
digests of the statistlea of mines and manufac
tures, which were collected at the taking of the
last donne.
Mr. Coudatsn. of Vermont, introduced a bill to
Niter tho time for holding the Clrouit District
Court in Vermont.
The consideration of the army bill was re
sumed.
Mr. 1101:711T0.1, of Texas, opposed the measure.
,Ifir could ceo no neoeeaity of large standing armies
in times of peace, It was contrary to the theory
-of, our Oovernment. He ridiouled the ides of
making dragoons of men who had never mounted
a horse in their lives, and did not know even how
to bridle one, who would have to be tied on until
they learned to ride, and then would be in danger
'of going heels over head when they were brought
into notion. [Laughter.)
At 1 o'clock, the Peottlo Railroad bill was called
up, it being the suocial order of that hour.
Mr. DAVID, of Missieeippi, expressed a hope that
the army bill would not by postponed, as it was of
the utmost importance that, speedy action should
ho taken upon it.
Mr. Winoos, of Massachusetts, had an amend
ment to offer, and wished to have an opportunity to
have it printed.
Mr. SruAriv, of Michigan, argued the question
of order, maintaining that the army bill being un
' finished, that business bad priority over all special
orders.
Mr. REWARD, of New York, trustod that, by the
unanimous consent of the Bonet°, the gentleman
from Toxae bo allowed to proceed, as it was very
unpleasant to be out off' in the midst of one's
remarks.
This was agreed to.
Mr. HOUSTON resumed. He advocated the rais
ing of volunteers to meet all neoessary emergen
cies, saying they were not more expensive than
regular troops, and were deoldedly preferable.
Pour additional regiments were raised some years
ago, the expense of which was probably something
like the twenty millions of dollars now deficit in
the Treasury. What have they done? Killed
few Indian warriors, but many women and chil
dren. Such conduct reflects little credit upon
civilisation. It would be
,better to treat Indians
like mon, and elevate them, than deceive and rob
and hunt them down like savage beasts, Dojos
floe to them, and you will need no standing army
on the frontiers.
Mr. Wzr.sox, of Massachusetts, gave notice of
an amendment to the army bill, in the form of a
substitute, to the &Rot that the President—fur the
purpose of enforcing the laws of the United Status,
maintaining pesos with the Indian tribes, and pro.
tooting citizens on the routes of emigration to
Utab, to be employed only in said Territory—be
authorized to call for, and aocept, the services of
volunteers, not exceeding five thousand in all, the
officers and men to serve twelve months unless
previously discharged, and approriating
dollars for the purpose of carrying its provisions
into effort.
The further consideration of the bill was post
poned till to-morrow.
Mr. DOUGLAS, of Illinois. moved that the Senate
take up the bill providing for the admission of
Minnesota into the Union, saying that he was in
favor of the Pacific Railroad bill, but thought that
the question of allowing the Senators from a new
State to take their seats ought to take procaine('
of all other business. The Pacific Railroad was a
measure in which these gentlemen and the State
they represent wore deeply interested.
Mr. Ginn, of California, was anxious to ()con
sider the Pacific Railroad bill. The Senators
from Minnesota, ho was inclined to think, would
not get their seats before the passage of that
measure.
Mr. Onnita, of Missouri, said there were several
°considerations which must necessarily be brought
.to bear when the Minnesota bill shall bo taken up.
The question of representation would depend upon
questions of fact not yet decided. AS the returns
of the census have not yet been received. The
bill would, therefore, be prejudiced by prematurely
considering it.
Mr. Csarrenunu.s, of thruldht that Ta
al:mat for Minnesota, and thetwo gentlemen se
lected to represent her on this floor, made it the
Primary duty of the Senate to consider the subject.
They hod a right to take seats, and be heard on
the Seethe Railroad bill.
Mr. SIMARD, of New York, was in favor of the
Peal& Railroad bill, but should be obliged to vote
against taking it up at this time. lie believed,
with Mr. Crittenden, that the Minnesota case pre
sented a question of privilege, and those two
Senators ought to be allowed to take their seats at
the earliest day possible. That would give no In
creased vote in favor of the Pacific Railroad bill ;
and be was afraid there would not be strength
enough to carry It without them.
Mr. FITZPATRICK, of Alabama, as a member of
the Committee on Territories, objected to taking
up the Minnesota bill, not having had an oppor
tunity to read the report, in consequence of NU
MB.
Mr. Owls did not want a collision botweon the
two measures. lie thought the reason assigned by
M. Fitzpatrick Will suffielunt for postponing the
Minnesota
nitr.' D011016)1 felt It to be his duty to press his
motion, and demanded the yeas and nays.
Mr. Gault remarked, that Mr. Sebastian, of
Arkansas, a member of the Committee on Terri•
tories, had boon detained from his seat by sick
ness, and desired to he present when the Minne
sota bill was taken up. Let that bill bo passed
oror till the proper time, and Minnesota will glide
into the Union without causing a ripple upon the
stream.
Mr. Armies:, of Virginia, said that events have
occurred. nod others are at hand, which might en
lighten the American mind upon the subject of the
admission of new States into the Union This
proposition has been only a few days before the
Senate, and not been thoroughly examined. lie
wen not aware, when the question should combs a
regular and proper course before the Senate, that
any objection weld be made to the admission of
Minnesota. There have boon, however, great ir
regularities in the mode of erecting that State,
and they required some examination before the
subject could be acted upon.
Why this undue baste to have the subject taken
up out of its orders There were other subjects
which also might be considered in connection with
this. It was known tbatin the course of this week,
and possibly in a day or two, the application of
another Territory would bo received for admission
into the Union as a State. Redid not know where
the Senator from Illinois (Mr. Douglas) would
stand upon that question. If Kansas should pre
sent herself hero for admission in the manlier
whirls was expected, ho did not know whore the
great array of Senators on tho Deno:auntie side
would stand. lie wee not prepared to take up the
consideration. Whoa the Sonata shall have had
further time to take more extended views on all
the circumstances and probable exigencies that
may surround the admission of now States at this
session, it might be found desirable that snob (peti
tions should be considered separately.
But ho wail not disposed to take up ono of these
measures until the other was matured, at least.
The Lecumpten Constitution is now in Washington,
and when it, shall be presented to the Senate, it
Will probably be accompanied by authentic informa
tion touching all matters connected with It. Ito
Kuped it would not meet with so much opposition
as had boon antiolpated, but thought that not a
single stop ehould be taken by the Senate, in refer
ence to the admisaion of new States, until wo are
able to see exactly where we stand There might
be circumstances, when it would be found a mat
ter necessary for the Southern States, in order to
determine whore they stand In this Union, that
the two questions should be taken together
Mr. IV/LB" of Massachusetts, said he and the
people he represented were favorable to any just
anti practicable measure for the construction of the
Pacific Railroad, but he felt constrained to mho
oato the postponement of this measure, in order to
consider the question of tlto admission of Minne
sota Into the Union. An sot was passed at the last
session authorizing the people to form a Constitu
tion and State Government for this purpose. They
have complied with its provisions. There were Ir
regularities, but all parties agreed on a Constitu
tion, which was submitted and received thirty
thousand votes against five hundred. The voles
of Minnesota on this subject had approached
unanimity. All irregularities as to form ought to
yield to the substance.
Ile hoped the Senate and the country would no
tice the position taken by the Senator from Virgi
nia (Mr. Mason,) who was opposed to giving the
consideration of this ineweire, because he suppo
sed the donators on the Republican aide of the
chamber may oppose the admission of Kneads un
der the Lecomptan Constitution. The Senator did
not want to act on the question of the admission of
e State, under the Constitution authorized by Con
gress because be wantoi to eto what the R
I epubli
cans ntend doing when the proposition of the ad
lIIISAIOU of Kansas under the becomnton Constitu.
Gen should be presented. 110 would say to the Se
nator from Virginia now, in order that there would
bo no misunderstanding, that they would oppose
the consummation of the Lecompton swindle, by
all the means they could employ under the rules
of this body, and he presumed this would be the
ease in the other House.
Neither he nor the country could BO why n Ter
ritory that has formed a Constitution in accord
ance with the organic act—a Constitution which
has received the sanction of nearly the autire
people of the Territory, and under which was
elected a Legislature svilleh has been in session for
nearly two months, and (luring that time been
passing laws—should Ile kept out of the Union to
await an examination of all the facts connected
with Num. There )rail no each connection of
the two subjects as to justify such a proceeding.
There wu need for immediate notion to bring
Minnesota into the Union.
Mr. DAYABR, of Delaware, adverted to the Irregu
larity of the Legislature In electing Senators be
fore Minnesota has boon admitted Into the Union
as a State, and thought they could not legally bold
foals under the circumstances. lle regretted to
mine swill a question against one of the gentlemen
who formerly occupied u seat In the body, and for
whom, as well es for the other, he enterinined the
highest respect.
ItArr, of Y.w ilampahtre, said there never
bad been a proposition which looked so seriously
ty
. 0 eentliut that might e ud lit the disruptivi uf
this Union as the ono entertained by the Senator
from Virginia—namely, to make the admission of
Kansas under the Leoompton Constitution a touch
stone by which fidelity is to be tried, and without
which no other State can ever come into the Union.
If this was the condition, it would be a long time
before the States would be increased beyond their
present number. It was contrary to the whole
genius of our institutions for one or any sof of
States to say that the admission of Kansas under.
the Leoompton Constitution should of,
made a sine.
qua non for the admission of other States into the
Union. He was °tear'," of the opinion that the
majority of the people of the country did not re
gard Kansas entitled to be admitted under such an
instrument.
Ile did not know whether the measure would
pass both houses or not, but thought it would be
more likely to go through if the five-regiment bill
be passed for there was so much patronage con•
masted with it as to taint the atmosphere, and
have an insensible influence upon votes in favor of
It. [Laughter.' The Senators on his aide bad
been lectured for speaking about disunion, but
whenever the Senators on the other side spoke on
Volt subject, nobody lectured them.
Mr. Dorar.ae rose to a piestion of order, as to
whether Kansas was the proper subject of debate,
the Senate not having decided whether they would
take up the Minnesota bill or not. -
Mr. Haul remarked that the movement of the
Senator from Illinois afforded a practical illus
tration of what he had just said about lecturing.
Why was not the Senator from Virginia, who first
started the debate on Kansas, lectured, instead of
going down to the foot of the class and lecturing
him, (Mr. Bale?) [Laughter.]
Mr. MasoN said he made his remarks without
conference with his friends. He did not say ho
wanted to see all the difficulties In Kansas settled
before be could vote for the admission of any new
State under any circumstances. The time had
not yet come to say that. Ile hoped it would not
become necessary to say it. What be did say was
this : That this bill for the admission of Minnesota
bad been reported within the last week or ten days,
and that looking into it, and seeing great irregu
larities, it might be proper that alt the questions
relative to the admission of a new State be con
sidered together.
Mr Bitowx, of Mississippi, alluded to Mr.
Douglas's alleged IneounleCenales, and said that if
by this hot haste to get Minnesota Into the Union
the Senator from Illinois wanted to secure the
votes of the two Senators from Minnesota against
the Loootapton Constitution, he hoped the admis•
sion of Minnesota would he resisted to the-bitter
end..
- Mr. CRITTENDEN saw no reason why these two
subjects should be oenneoted in their deliberations.
Every question should be settled on Its own merits.
The elroumstanees under wbiob Minnesota applied
for admission wore justified by the numerous pre
cedents in the history of the oonatry. If. did not
wish to be involved in the vortex of Kansas poli
ties. Alluding to the threats which have been
mode to a dissolution of the Union, he denounced
them es unwise, unpatriotic, and utterly uncalled•
for He was for tho Union snow, and the Union
forever; and ho know the love for the Union was
too deep and strong In tho hearts of the people to
bo rooted oat by the , efforts of politicians of any
party. Ills remarks were glowingly eloquent, and
greeted by repeated applause in the galleries.
Mr. DOUGLAS said that Mr. Brown was entirely
mistaken in supposing that be regarded the ena
bling act as Indispensable in the admission of new
States. In defining his position ho remarked, that
whenever he was satisfied that the Constitution
embodied the will of the people, be was ready to
admit a State under It. In the absence of the ena
bling act, irregularities might be waived, provided
the Constitution was the bona fide will of the peo
ple. On thin principle, satisfy him that the Le
compten Constitution embodied tho will of the
people, and be would vote for the admission of
Kansas under it. He would not, however, apply
one rule to Minnesota and another to Kansas, nor
apply one rule to a free State and another to a
slave State.
Mr. FITZPATRICK obtained the floor.
Mr CLAY, of Alabama, said it was now late, and
as they could not now settle the pending question,
be moved an adjournment, which prevailed.
HOUSE OE REPRESENTATIVES
Mr: Srsaros ' of Ohio, offered a preamble sot.
tingforth that Mr. J. B. Williamson, of the city
of New York, was on the 27th of January, duly
summoned, but refused to appear, before the special
committee appointed to investigate the charges
against certain members or officers of the last
Rouse of Representatives, growing out of the et
pentlitures of Messrs. Lawrenee Stone, & Co., to
Influence the passage of the tariff bill of 1850, and
concluding with a resolution that the Speaker
issue his warrant, directed to the Sergeant-at-arms,
"to take into custody the said Williamson, where
ever found, and bring hive before the bar of this
House to answer for contempt of its authority.
Mr. STANTON caused to be road a letter from Mr.
Williamson, in which he respectfully deolined to
appear before the committee for reasons which his
attoraoy ndvlsed him were suffieient for his not
leaviu, Now York.
The resolution was adopted.

dental omission in the army bill of last session,

ministration amounting to $350,000. The bill, after

tion, which was passed, providing for the sppoint

And report :

The navigation laws of the United States.
The existing duties on imports, and the expe
diency of a gradual repeal of all duties, and resort
exclusively to internal taxation.
The House resumed the consideration of the
printing defloiency;bill. During the discussion it
was stated that the printing for the Thirty-third
Congress had cost a Million dollars more than for
the Thirty-fourth Congress, and that such extra
vagant exnditures resulted from orderin g the
printing, of pe
works, of the extensiveness of which
nothing was known. While several gentlemen

contracts, and that Congress should pay these,
but guard in future against nob abuses. Others
said that if this system of publie plunder, for the
benefit of party editors, was to be continued, they
should take the opportunity to place their names
on the record, end wash their hands of all such
corruption.
The committee rose without coming to any eon
elusion on the subject.
