WAsnINGTON, March 3, 184-9.
SENATE.—The HOUSO bill to extend
the revenue laws of the United States
over upper California, and to establish
a collection district, was laid on the ta
ble.
The bill authorizing the coinage of
the gold dollar and the double eagle,
was passed with an amendment, (i 0
which the House concurred.)
The Senate disagreed to the House
amendment to the bill to run the boun
dary line between the United States and
Mexico, and a committee of conference
was appointed.
Mr. Douglass moved that the bill
(ruin the House to establish a territorial
government for Upper California be ta
ken up, but the motion did not prevail
—yeas 25, days 28.
The bill establishing the Home Dc
partment of the Government was pass
ed, after debate.
Various inessages were interchanged
with the House.
The several appropriation bills were
passed.
.11ler midnight, the general appropri
ation bill was received from the House
with an amendment to the Senate's
amendment, providing a government for
the territories. Warm and eloquent
remarks were made by Senators. Fi
nally' the Senate receded from their
amendment and this saved the bill,
which was near being lost.
-During the session, and afteP mid
night, Mr. Cameron and Mr. Foote had
angry words, and came near fisticuffs.
An adjournment, sine die, took place
at about seven o'clock on Sunday moin
lag?. . _
HOUSE. -A variety of miscellaneous
business was transacted ; and at three
and a half o'clock the House took a re
cess until six.
Mr. McDowell of Virginia, offered a
resolution of thanks to the Speaker for
the able, impartial, Nind dignified man
ner in which he had discharged the du
ties of his station ; and the resolution
was adopted.
The Senate had passed an amendment
to the general Appropriation bill, pro
viding a government for the Territories
—the House struck this out, and a com
mittee of conference had been appoint
ed on the disagreeing amendment.
Mr. Vinton - moved the committee to
be discharged.
Questions then were raised, debated
and then disposed of. Finally the house
receeded, and brought the Senate's
amendmenment again before the House.
Mr. Moreheall offered an amendment
—striking out that part of the amend
ment which says that the act shall ap
ply to the territory west of the Rio,
and inserting that nothing shall be con
strued to prejudice the claim of Texas
as to boundary. This %vas agreed to—
yeas 186, nays 20
Mr. 'Thompson, of Indiana, moved
to amend the Senate's amendment by
extending the constitution of the U. S.
over the territory, and also the existing
laws, to secure the people in the enjoy
ment of their liberty, property, and re
ligion, and empowering the President
to carry the provision into effect. This
was subsequently adopted. After vari
ous efforts of the free soilers to kill.the
Appropriation bill, it was again sent to
she Senate. Motions were made to ad-
journ, speeches delivered, calls of the
! House moved. The greatest possible
confusion prevailed throughout the Sen
ate.
DIED,
At his residence in Dublin township, on Thurs
day, the Ist instant, Mr. ARCHIBALD STITT,
in the 86th year of his age.
Another good man has been "gathered to his
fathers !" Through the course of a long and
useful life, his conduct and character were ever
such as to win the confidence and esteem of all
with whom he was associated.
A native of County Down in Ireland, he emi
grated at an early day to this county, and in the
year 1703 settled near Burnt Cabins. Among
the many neighbors and friends who, from that
time until the day of his death, knew and es
teemed him for his honest heart and christian
virtual, his char.: ter needs no eulogy. Of
him we feel that we can without exaggeration
say—
to None knew him but to love him,
None named him but to praise."
From his early life an exemplary professor
of the Christian religion, and. for forty-two
years an Elder in the Presbyterian Church at
Shade Gap, there clustered around him the
mumories and the fellowships of age—the re
spect of manhood—the love and veneration of
youth. Now that he has gone, they will derive
convolution from the truth, that the tears which
're shed over a good man's grave, act upon the
seed he has sown in the hearts of those he loved,
like the dews of Heaven upon the thirsty earth.
