SENATE.—The Vice President laid before the Senate the message of the House, returning TRE HILL TO REPRAL TRE INCOME TAX. Mr. Scott moved to non concur in the reasons assigned by the House for the return of the bill, and to ask for a Committee of Conference, and maintained that the Senate bill was not a bill to raise revenue, and consequently did not co within the inb’ 1g clause Of the constitution referred to by the House. Mr. Sherman said debate on this question would last probably for days, as it was very mportant.and had been a subject of dispute between the two houses ry years. He thought it best now to have a conference com- mittee, in order that some definite rule of action might be adopted as a guide hereatter. Mr. Saulsbury thought to question the power of the Senate in this matter was most ridicalous, and that no notice whatever should be taken of the House message. Mr. Wiliian: Dispatches.
