COcUttittftSIORAL PRO CEDIOl
WarhingToH, Jan. 27, 1853.
BtucATK. Mr. Yilncm (Mass ) introduced
resolution, authorising tho appointment or
comiiiispioD lo examine kito too difficulties
mnectcd with aflnira ill Utah, and whether
icy cun bo settled without resort to Totto.
el'errcd to llio MiliUry Committee.
Mr. I'ligb (O.) presented a series of joint
notations passed by lbs Legislature of
bio.
Mr. Wade (0 ) said tlicy were disropuUblo
i their character.
At tlio impatient deninud of Beyera. sens
)Tf, they were read.
Tlio resolutions express tbe entire confi
rnco of tbe Legislature, in tlio Integrity and
I.illty of the present Chief Magistrate; say
lie Administration commands tholr cordial
nd undivided Rnppiit, and reaffirm the doc
rinra of the Cincinnati platform. Tliey re
iul tho refusal of tlio liecompttm Convert
inn to submit its Constitution to tho people,
s unfortunate for tbe peaeo of that country,
ml declare it to he their anulteruble judg
nent, that eveiy Constitution of a new State
if tlio Union, (unless otherwise directed by
he people,) ought to bo submitted to tho
nun Ji'lc electors of such Territory for their
lppr'ival or ..rejection ; and conclude by in
cluding tho Representatives and requesting:
ihu Senators from Ohio, to vote against the
idiiiission nf Kansas under the Locomptoti
Constitution, or any other not clearly ex
preFsivn of the will of the people.
M r. Wade remarked that tho reason why
I n stigmatized theso resolutions as disrepula
hie. was because tin y did not speak out with
that iniinly independence, with which the
Legislature of a kovercigii State fdiould al
w.'vs speak upon any question of sufficient
.'iiip.:rtaneo fur expressing any opinion at all.
' flu-so resolutions endorse the President, and
pj'cdrje themselves to support every jot and
i.nle" of U'o Adiv.ii'iislroiii'n, when they iu.
' :"iul to conclude, by instructing their Sena
''.ers to go against the only fcreat and during
measure 'the Administration has presented.
"Why not como directly to the question at
i;-.rui. t.v.d with that calm dignity, which be-lif.-iO
r. so-ereit'ii -State, declare and an
iiT.inco their porpoJu a-ud their will ? Why go

meau to aid by dochirinj their stem doler
ruination to oppose the ciitly important nieas
re it has brought forward? The l'resident
r.ot only announces his determination not to
a) low the people of Kimis to make their
own constitution, but lo force upon them ono
made bv their enemies, and compel ubedience
.o it will, the point of the bayonet, lie (Mr.
Wsdf) proposed, if it t'r.nuld come to that,
to resume the same n'gurent when) our
fufiiers left it. Tho Smslfc hud not nper.

The resolution were not the voke of the
people of Ohio, and met no sympathy or
. ocipiieeeence from the Republic ill party,

Kepulilicaiift in the Ohio Legislature l,y a
c iwardly minority, itie.br the gag rule, because
t !) dared not face the rcorn and contempt
which wojU have been heaped upen th.em
hvl they permitted the l.berty of rpeech.
The brave and generous people of Ohio would
have spoken out directly, without catering to
Hi-fiver of any man. i'.uldly and indnpotid-,-r.l'v
would thev have r.roiiouuced their will.
't ho resolutions were passed under the slate
incut that haste was indUpnns '', and yet
i-.'.ro than tdi days have elapsed, during which
t in.) th.'V have slept it; some man's breeches
poi-liet. He was ;!!u:g to go with the Leg
Mature, and re.-ist to the death the attempt
to force the Lccoinpl.oi. or any ether Consti
tution, not the will of the people, upon them.
'J hie is the hist attempt, since the American
I:voiutlen, lo take away tho liberties of the
pi i'p'...-, and it mast be the last.
Mr. i'uj'h raid he would not interfere with
the special or ler, by making a speech now.
V!.i-:i tho l.eco:i.ptoii CmiHili.lion was pre

1-n-t'i, and tahe tho opportunity to correct
Lis c- Lciejiiu in Mini" n utters id' fact.
Too iesii'.e.tioi.3 were tabled, aud ordered
to ''a ptiiite-!. , ....
Mr. lUvis (MIsj.) pre-ented a lull 83 a
F '.o.-titulo fur the. IVcilie lluilroad bill, em
b eiyi-g t!u vioivs of tho minority of the
iS-1 "ci Committee.
Mr. r.r.nh rick (Cal.) introduced a bill
I'ircctir.g the payment into tl.o treafury of
C jhforiiia, of e'.l moneys ctdleeled on duties
or imports prior to her tidmiasicu into the
Union.
Ti:o S oiito thrn proceeded to the considn
ratiou uf the Army bill.
Mr. tiwin (Cal) submitted a substitute
providing lor live new reu'imeuts, according
to tho recommendation ot the Secretary of
War.
The snV'titulo was rgectcd by a vote or G
yeas apainl nays.
Mr. (Ti-itn.) said h.) could perceivo no
absolute neces'-ity for the proposed increase
or the regular force. M" had heard suggested
that tlui s-ei vices of volunteers had been
ottered, and presumed they would be sufficient
for the preser.t emergency.
Mr. lv.-rsonUa.) remarked that our gal
lant soldiers were in n condition to require
reinforcements was sufiicieut to insure tho
passage of tho bill. The mere item of ex
pense" should not influence Senators under
the present circumstances. In the growing
cor.ditiou of the country it ought to bo es-
pected that the expeuses ol the military
establishment will be annually increased. As
bad been said, it was true foicea hnd been
used iu Kansas. Not to coulrol popular
sovereignty, nor even to assist tlio minority
to put down the majority, but to keep tho
peaco and maintain the supremacy of the
laws there. He regretted as much ns nnj
tho necessity of their employment, liut if it
bad not beeu for this, long before t.ow, not
an Abolitionist would have been left to dese
crate and pollute tho soil of that Territory.
Lawrence, that sink of folly, tilth and false
hood, would long ago have been razed to tho
ground, and the history or that place miht
Lure been written in tho words :
"Lawrence was ."
Much bad been said about the border ruBi
: ans ii) this sense, liut be did not know a
worse set of marauding ruffians than those
under Jim Lane. If there was t band of
rufflaus more despicable than another, it was
the same baud. Indeed, il ho could rake the
.infernal regions, from centre to circumference,
and from the surface to tbe bottom, be did
nut believe a set so infamous could be Cbhed
out. Iu preserving peace in Kansas, tbe
l'resident did no more than bis duty, ai d
Mr. Iverson alluded to tho employment of
troops in llhodo Island during Gov. Dorr's
roovomeuls, to show thut tbe (Joveruuient
lmd interposed in certain rosea
Mr. Simmons (It. 1.) vindicated the charter
party, and gave tbe history or tbe Hbode
Island rebellion, confiDiug himself ta wbat
i.a npftola did. Y nb regard to tue uoveru
incut's action, be would say nothing, and uot
.n mention the name of the chief ciagis-
4ria at that time in Dower. If the. Senator
... not aatisGed. be would biin him a book
f Wing Vba full blttory of the case..
Mr. Iverson expressed liimsolf satisfied. "
Mr. Chandler (Mich.) expressed tho opin
ion that Urigham Young was only carrying
bht what was supposed to be tho principles
of the Knosns-Nubraska bill, which declares
that tho peoplo of a territory ought to bo
loft perfectly free to form and regulate their
domcstia institutions in their own wav. In
the innocence of his heart, Urigham Young
supposed that the family was a domestic
institution, and nnder that interpretation, be
bad the right to cither one or one hundred
wives, as lie pleased. If the Democrats pro-
poso to maiutain their former doctrine of
popular sovereignty and non-inlerVentioo,
aud yet declare that they wish to intervene
in Kansas, he would grant all the troopB
necessary to preserve order; bnt he thought
the best way would be to employ a missionary
to go to Utah alone) nnd explain to Urigham
Young tho views of tbe CJovernmcnt, for it
was evident that he now supposed the idea
of non-intervention by tbe Democratic Ad
ministration witb the domestic institutions of
a territory was utterly groundless, lie said,
if it had not been for tho troops in Kansas,
border-ruffianism would bavo been wiped out,
nnd not only that, but a terrible account set
tled with some of tho border towns of Mis
souri. If tho Senator from (Jeorgia desirod
to have the troops removed from Kansas, be
could easily vote nceurdiug'y.
Mr. Davis said that it most bo evident
from tbe tono of the debate, that much of
the opposition to the bill sprung rrom a
desire to foment civil war in Kansas, and bo
ngain spoko of tbe necessity for taking the
question.
Several Senators expressing a uesirc to bo
heard, and tho hour being late, the Senate
adjourned.
lloiss On motion of Mr. 'Zollicofler
(Tenn.l n resolution was adopted, calling
upon tlio President for ull information show
ing what gave riso to the Utah .Expedition,
and throwing light on the question how far
Urigham Young is in a statu of rebellion or
resu-tuueo to the authorities of the United
States.
Tho House went into committee of tho
whole on the stale of the Union, and touk up
tho motion to print the Deficiency bill.
Mr. Davis (Miss ) said that threats made
bv gentlemen of the North against the South
were held in contempt. Tho South expect a
conttici ai a perioo not tar nieianr, unu come
when it might they would be found reedy to
meet it. If tho North should invude tho
So.ith, lot them do it in open day, aud not by
night. Whenever a single drop of blood
shall bo shed there, by way of coercing the in
to submit to injustice, and wrong, il will be
followed by a stream of Gro into the North.
They would find an army maiching from the
South into the North, with the sword in oue
hand aud tho l!ib!e in tho other, scattering
desolation in their palb. The South has
borne witb patience the at lacks made upon
the tu because they love tho Union, but will
not much longer submit. Ho had more ie
spett for tho Abolitionists than for tho Free
Soilers, on principle. The assassin meets his
victim in open day, while tho other stabs him
while asleep. The only difference exists in
the fact that oue is a greater robber than the
other.
Mr. Uiddings (Ohio) asked whether the
gentleman from Missifsippi would carry his
desolation into the Western Reserve.
Mr. Davis replied that that would be the
first point ho would stnke at, because that
was t ho residence of the meanest and worst
iT A In! tior.is.t3 in the country. ILutigbtcr.J
Mr. Leach, of Michigan, said tho people
have a high regard for the Presidential
office, and for tho functionary bimsi If, when
worthy. 15ut they have learned, from sad
experience, how I'ur the President has strayed
from tho landmarks of freedom. Passing
over tho iniquities perpetrated in Kansas, he
proceeded to speak aguinsst tho President's
recommendation of aa indemnity to the Spa
nish government, "for the purpose of distri
bution among the claimants in the Armictud
case." Congress bad not hitherto (icosied
the case worthy of serious consideration. It
had long slept quietly, and its repose shoald
not now be disturbed, lie trusted the ques
tion would bo put iu a manner so emphatic
lhal it woul 1 never again be intruded on
Congress. Those negroes wero free by the
laws of Spain, by the laws of tho United
States, by tho jaws of .liutions, nad by the
impartial nnd eternal law of Heaven ! Rut
even if they had been slaves, there uai by
llio trea'y with Spain, r.o authority to deliver
them up as merchandize. In conclusion, he
argued against tho extension of slavery, and
demanded that all Territories and tho Dis
trict of Colombia, should be purged of the
curse. The hearts or tho people uro Tor this
and ultimately the principlo will triumph.
M r. A very, of Tennessee, briefly alluded to
llio "unwarrantable usurpation" of Commo
dore Paulding', He declared the Clayton
iiulwcr treaty was n mildew utid a blight to
llio progress of American institutions, and
should be abrogated. He favored the appli
cation oTtho Monroe doctrine, and the acqui
sition of Cuba, which was of great importance
to tho country, and was doubtlofs eo regard
ed by the cnl.ghteticd statesman who Gils the
Presidential chair. Lnglatid, cumulated by
uatiohal aggrandisement, is the most filibus
tering cation her pocsesBions on this Conti
nent, which should be prevented. He advo
cated tho Lecomptou Constitution, as being
in conformity to tho Constitution of the Cm
ted States aud the legally expressed will of
the people of Kansas.
Mr. Thompson of New Y'ork, rent into a
full history of tho Mormons, showing that
their Government blends in oue the qualities
of Church and State, in imitation of the He
brew theocracy. Power and polygamy hold
their leaders together und not oro among
them would stay there longer than bo could
help, if both thebO luxuries wero denied him.
ILuughler
Mr. (iiddings asked whether tho Mormons
have not as much power, under llio uoctnue
of squatter-sovereignty, to tstabbsli polvgu
my, us other turritories have to establish tla-
very?
Mr. Thompson replied, that he did not
wish to mix this question with the question
of nejro slavery, nnu proceeded to con
deinn polygamy as being against the moral
laws and the opiuion of civilized mankind.
In view of tho enormity staring mem in tho
face, we should pass u luw mahiug polygamy
a crime, and send a force tbero to scalier cv-
erv harem to tho winds. Do would apnre
bend all conspirators, who would be found to
include every bead of a seraglio. Ho would
trv them for treason, and have every ono
found euilty and bunged, excluding ull Mur
nioiia Irom participating in ttie proceeJings oi
the Court. Ho would spare the uihuhiunts
and give them a republican lorm or govern
nient, ami pee that they enjoyed it without
tho hell of despotism on their necks. And
if ull this failed, be would turn their territory
into a vast military camp to protect the high
way to the raeilte. liut is tiicessary to bo
peifurmed shall bo doue now, whether volun
teers ure to bo employed or not. He stood
committed to stay tho march of this prairia
ure. bclore it shall extend and involve the
whole country iu tbe couliagralu,u.
W.uuth, Jan. 89.
Hocai. Mr. Burnett euiil the Public Printing
has been charged as a saurca of corruption.
through which the troaimry it robbed ; thai geu
llemcii who bold the office of l'ublic Printer real,

liniii are lor me J, by which lha printing i eon.
Ircl!d. 11 did not make iheae cbargia, nor did
n KU3v low lar uiry are true, yet iney re
ma te through the f.rein of the country, and hence
should be fully investigated by Special Commit
tees bavins charge of the subject. It was to b-ro
a matter of mystery bow the public printer could
be guilty of corruption, with the lw regulating
bit compensation, bnt it was nevertheless true
that the priming of both Houaeaenuhlnslhe priii
ters to realize iimneiuta fortunes. It had beta
advanced that to faver their election they gar
thousands of dollars, and freely open their purees
during the Presidential canvas. Printing ha
grewn enormously within s few years past. In
the Thirty. tcrond Congress it was g 1)60,000. and
for the Thirly-third it win nearly $1,700,01)0,
and for the Thirty-fourth fS,3n3,000. He, among
other citations of extravttgaiire said ihot Itlfi,
000 has been spr nt for cuts of wood loaches,
siiuirrrls, mire, and other animals so worthlesnly
put into the Patent Oflice report. He waa for
tipping this extravagant drain en the Treasury,
by paying for all work completed, and diHpena
ing with that Hot performed. He movnl art
amendment to tho bi'l reducing the $.1)0,000
prnposed to he appropriated, lo $410,000
Mr. Letcher (Va.) showeii that the amount In
the bill was to pay for liabilities incurred by the
last two Congreur. He alluded lothe fart lhal
the publication of Uillis' Astronomical Ex peril
lion cent 1 15,000, that of the Pacific Railroad
burvey nearly $R3:),U00, and Emory's iicport
i 317.0U0. lie hoped that A stop would soon be
put lo this extravugant System itl Some way.
The publication of these and other works umourit
ed to nothing more than that the Government is
lo be the publishet tf boooks which would not
kmpt private publishers. Borne of these books
were utterly worthless. Ha appealed to the com
mittee to lake the means to put an end for the
future, to such ehameful extravugsnce. Their
eonaiituenta should net be taxed for uch unjust
and wasteful purposes.
Mr. Phelps (Mo.) explained that the bill was
to pay the amount duo unJcr contrasts made by
tho authority of the House. These contracts
should be met, and Congress should not under
take to repudiate them. While the attention of
the country is attracted to the extravagance of
the last two Congresses, the present Congress
should be held responsible for its expenditures
for printing, and govern its future course by thc
rxperience of the pant.
Mr. Crawford, ol (icoargia, was willing le pay
only for work already dune, to the cxlcnt of
9316,000, and no more.
Mr. NichoN; of Ohio, thought it was proper
that the House should manifest its sense as to
w hat khould be dar.e relative to a.mic ol the print
ing, but was opposed to tho suggestion of the
gentleman from Georgia.
Alter further debate, tho committee rose with
out coming to a conclusion on the luhiect.

I TAII ARMY TlClinlUl.U SI t FKrtHflV
Tho arrears of news that cenie in day after
day from our Utah army are discouraging.
Colonel Cooky's report to the Adjolant ior
oraal of the Utah army, ofhis march from the
Missouri to the valley ef tho Salt like. is
full or curious interest. He started in com
mand or six companies '2d Dragoons, from
Port Leavenworth, on 17tb September, and
bj8 journal ends with bis arrival at Port Brid
ger on tbe l'Jtb of November. Ac says :
i he reeular journal of each day a marcli is
given, how it rained, and how tho mules died,
aud tho men cemplained. On October 5lh
bo !arrived at Fort Kearney ; on the loth
crossed tho South Platte the thermometer
was at 13, and the river full of ico.
It was discretionary with Col. Cooke to
winter at Port Laramie or to post on to Salt
Lake. He preferred tho latter course. Ou
November 4th bis command was at Sweet
Water Pass, in the Hocky Mountains; next
day they gained Devil's Cote.
"Oo tbe 6th wo loumi tlio ground once.
more white and the snow falliig, but then
very moderately. I marched as usual. On
a four mile bill tho north wind aod drifting
snow became severe ; the air seemed turned
to frozen fog ; nothing could bo teen ; we
were strugcling in a freezing cloud. Tho lof
ty wall at 'J'hreo Crossing' was a happy re
lief, but tho cuide, who had latelv passed
there was relentless in pronouncing that there
was no grass ; tho Idea ot lindtng and (ceding
upon grass in that wintry stern, under the
deep snow, was hard to entertain, but as he
promised grass and other shelter two miles
further, we marched on, crossing twice more
the rocky stream, half chokod with snow and
ico ; finally ho led us behind a great granite
rock, but all too small for the promised shel
ter, only a part ot tue regiment could huddle
there, in the deep snow ; while, the long night
throne!., tho storm continued, and tho lourlul
eddies from above, before, behind, drove the
falling and drifting snow. 1 bus exposed, for
the hope of graee, the poor animals were dri
ven with great devotion oy tho men once
more across the stream, and three-quarters of
a inilo beyond, to the base or a gramto ndgo
but which almost faced tho storm ; there the
famished moles, erjing piteously, did not
seek to eat, bot despurately gathered in a
mass, aud some horses, escaping tho gourd,
wecj. buck to thu ford, where the lofty preci
pico first gave us so pleasant relief aud shel
tea. Thus morning light bad nothing chceiing
to reveal, tbo air stiil filled witb diiven suow
tl.o animals soon came driven in aud min
gled in contusion with men, went crunching
the snow in the continue and wretcted camp.
tramping all t hints in their way. It was not
a time to dwell ou tho fact that Irom that
mountain desert lucre was no retreat, nor
any shelter near, but a time for action. Hut
for six hours thu frost or frozen fog fell thick
ly liko snow, and agaiu we marched ou as in
a cloud.
"Tho deefi snow drifts impeded as much,
and iu crossing Sweet Water ihe ico broke
iu tho middle. Marching teu miles only, I
got a better camp, and herded the horses on
the lulls ; it was a dir.erent road, wee re a few
davs before tho bodies of three frozen men
bad been found."
On the th the thermometer stood at U
below tho freez tig point. The snow was
deep; twenty-threu mules gave out, and five
wagons wero abandoned.
"Nino trooper horses were left freezing and
ding ou the road, and a number of soidieis
uud teuuisteis bad beeu frost bitten. It was
u defepeitttely cold night ; the thermometers
wero broken, but by comparison must bavo
maiked 'i'jt below zero. A bottle sherry
wmu froze in a trunk. Having lost about fif
ty mules iu thirty-six hours, the morniug of
1 lit), on the report or the Quartermaster 1
f It bo.iud to luuve a wagon in the bushes fill
ed wall seventy-four extra saddles and bri
dles ond some Bubres."
Next day tbe coru gave out, the mules were
dying in hunger.
"They gnawed am destroyed four wagon
tongues, a Dumber of wagon covers, ata their
ropes, aud getting loose, ate the sage fuel
collected at thu tools Some of tl.e.e tbey
also attacked. Nine died.
"Tbo fait growing company of dismounted
meu were marched together us a separate
command by day ; the moroiug of the twelfth
a uuuibcr of them wero frost-bitten from not
being iu motion, although stuoding by tbo
fire.
"That day eighteen males wero marched to
liig Sandy where the guide found gruss, and
fuel wilb it ; so good that tbe 13(h wus made
a day of rest ; tho soiuials wore all herded at
the grass. Fifty ho rue s bad been lost since
leaving Laramie."
He closes tbe report of bis march wilb tbe
following :
"I have H i horses and have Test 134.
Most of tbe loss has occurred mtCh this side
of South Pass, iu comparatively aioderate
weather. It has been of starvation. Th
earth bas a bo mora lifeless, trecloss, grass
less desert ; it contains scarcely a wolf to
glut itself on the handreds of dead aud frszeu
animals, which for thirty miles nearly block
tbe road wilb abandoned and shattered prop
erly. They mark, perhaps, beyond example
in hiitory, the steps of au advancing trjiy
witb the horrors of a disastrous retreat."
