THE TARIFF Mr. Dix presented a memorial from surgeons and drug: | gists of New York, against the duty on foreign leeches. REGULATIONS FOR CLAIMS ‘The bill from the House, requiring agents for claims to produce duly attested powers of attorney before draw- ing money from the Treasury, was raged without amendment. DUTIES ON JAVA COFFEE. The bill from the House in relation te duties on Java coffee, and refunding certain Spanish tonnage duties il- legally exacted, was passed with unimportant amend- ments.

Dix, Bagby, W cott, Berrien, Johnson, of Md., Mangum, Cass, Hani gan, Crittenden and others, all'the amendments Propose: were veted down. The Bill was then reported to the Senate precisely in the shape in which it passed the House, and after a speech from Mr. Bagby in opposition to it it was ordere third reading—yeas 34, nays 16. ‘The bill was then read a third time an ‘ARIFF BILL. ‘The tariff bill was then tal sumed and concluded his remarks in opposition to it. He spoke with great force, and was listened to with attention. Mr. Weaster then obtained the floor, and gave way to a motion for an executive session, after which the Senate adjourned. House of Representatives. InvestiGation oF Inptan Accounts. The House took up the resolution offered yesterday by | | Mr. Burt, for a Select Committee to investigate the ac- | counts rendered for expenses of the Prairie Indians, and Mr. Bowi1s moved that instructions be given to the Committee, and the motion was discussed vehemently by Mr McKay, who ridiculed the id rents of the y hould ask for an investigation, if a member | happened to find fault with the account of | | happy reply. If Mr. McKay meant that the animadversions of himself and others upon Gov- ernment, Butler, and Col. Johnson and the Agents, were | of no account, why there the matter might drop. Mr. Bropueap moved a reconsideration of Fine vote solution. Carried. ubject was then laid on the table. PEACE MISSION TO MEXICO. Mr. Incensoxt offered a resolntion upon the propriety | of sendin, eace mission to Mexico, and moved a sus- ion of the rules that it might be considered. Motion jost—yoas 64, nays 95. RIVATR BILLS.

Wasuincron, July 23, 1846. The Tariff—What Gossips Say—Mr. Chalmers— Mr. Colquitt. There are strange stories about town. It seems | to be generally believed that Mr. Jarnagin, a whig Senator from Tennessee, and Mr. Haywood, a democratic Senator from North Carolina, will éach vote against his party on the tariff bill. Nothing will be gained by this, on either side of the Senate, but both these gentlemen, individual- | ly, may lose caste athome. Iiliberal tongues say | that if Mr. Haywood does vote against the bill,the | | whigs will make him, if they can, the President being pass- | pro tem of the Senate, (as the President usually , | retires within a few days of the close of the ses- | sion—to make provision for the body, in case of | his death.) And it is said that if Mr. Jarnagin | votes for the bill, the democrats will make him | President pro temas a reward for obeying the in- | | structions of the Legislature of Tennessee. | curious dilemma—a marvellous affair.

The Naval Board—The Object of their Convocation —Mexico—How Peace may be Secwred—Treasury | Note Bill—Congress Proceedings—Fortifications — New York. When it was stated that a board of post captains was to assemble at Washington, there was no | doubt that their advice was to be elicited with re | gard to an attack on the castle of San Juan d’Ul summoning their attendance, did not state the object; but gentlemen attached to the navy said, they had reason to believe that the “ preparation of a plan of a bombardment” was meditated. | The organ of the administration did not contra- | ced it, not adulterated, but “ pure fiction.” But | the Secretary of the ceri may have deviated | from his original desi; he object is now said aq | 10 be, not to cut off the heads of the Mexicans, | ‘The 7 | but to cnt down the number of supernumerary officers inthe navy. This morning, at half past | nine o'clock, the officers sdeasabled at the navy | department. There is not a bad looking man | among them, and this I had an opportunity of as- certaining as ’ they passed me in review, as I stood | on the ste; leading to the council chamber. And, with Me. Butehte, I was gratified “to meet | with such a striking and moral spectacle !” It will be remembered es in his annual re- | port, the Secretary of the Navy recommended | certain retrenchments, and that, in reply to a re- solution of the House ef Be presentatives, he re- sponte. He assumed these ground: The service must be relieved from the bur- | iden of supernumerary officers. 2. ‘Appantments and promotions must be made | of none but officers capable of fully doing the duties of their station. 3. The pay naust be graduated according to the | length of service. 4. The number of shore stations, as they are called. must be still further curtailed . The complement and allowances of ships at | Ph, must be regulated by the severest economy | consistent with efficiency. 6 The number of the navy yards must be no | further increased. 7. The employment of labor at the navy yards must be directed by a harmonious system, so that preparations may not be made for doing at each of our eight navy yards what cai: be done only at one or two. 8. The pressure for places, to be filled by per- sons who wait for work, instead of Lt joying | oa when work is to be done, must be re- sis 9. The contingent expenses, especially those of travel and incidental labor, must be redueed, and 10. The number and force ot the squadrons to | | be mamtained, must never exceed tho limits re- * | quired by the public exigencies. Bat che great desire of Mr. Bancroft is to di- minish the number of officers, or at least of offi- cers liable to active service; a i Bh to officer al | eae ae wer: st mated by Common Stewart at eighteen o: ins, eighteen command- ers, and one andred sod ighty-tive lientenants. That isto say, there was an excess of fifty cap- tains, of seventy-nine commanders, of one hun- dred’ and forty lieutenants. After a liberal al- lowance for pf ‘efs and shore stations, the Secre- ff is of opinion that, in the three ation grades, umber of officers liable to be id Mr. Simmons re- | | loa. The order of the Secretary of the Navy, | dict the report until last night, when it pronoun- | | Keener | netive duty may be reduced—that of captning trom sixty-eight to forty-eight ; of _comman dere from ninety-seven to fifty three hundred and twenty-seven 1 and six At the opening of the present s there were at sea, but fourteen captains, ww oly two commanders, and a hundred and twen ; lieutenants. Of the captains (sixty-eight) sixteen had not been to sea since their promotion ; of the commanders (ninety-seven) thirty-eight Were in the same condition ; and in each of these grades the number is still larger of those who, within that time, had made no full cruise. The Secretary says, emphatically, “the navy languish~ es from the profusion of offic and that ** the doctrine that advancement is due to seniority | alone, irrespective of capacity for duty, places | personal interests before the public good, and partakes of the very essence of the worst form of aristocracy.” His recommendation to Congress | was, in arch last, the application of the eleet- | ive system to subordinate officers, and a control of it by superior officers. Mr. Bancroft estimates the saving in dollars and cents at Although little has been said publicly within the last few days about our coniiict with Mexico, there are two currents of opinion—one running on “conquering a peace’? and the other on ob- taining a peace as contradistinguished, The ad- ministration makes peace, without a further pro- secution of the war, dependent on Mexico, and whenever she asks, she shall receive the olive. Therefore, it is not to be expected that Mr. Polk and hiscabinet will, without such solicitation, advance pacificall ‘towards Mexico. There are many members who think that we can afford to be magnanimous at this conjuncture of our af- fairs, and maintain that the late victories have put an effectual barto the rem om of a sug- estion that terms of peace are offered by the nited States from any fear of carrying on the war, and that a defeated ration would be doubly humiliated by being compelled to sue for peace but a triumphant one holds out the oli » branelt with renewed elevation of character; that there is both magnanimity and sound policy i in avail- ing ourselves of the propitious momeuit, and the generosity of it will be a striking iv gredient mu the eye both of the enemy and of other nations; and the advahtages fairly to be obtained un- der such circumstances are not to be over looked. The contingency naturally presents | itself, may not Mexico refuse? The answer is, it is quite probable that she will—but the benefic ial | consequences to us, even of refusal, are striking and considerable. Gur war was the result of mea: sures which a portion of the country did not con- ! cur in, and does not approve. The annexation of Texas and the manner in which it was eflected, did not meet with unive assent and applause; but all will be sanct , and the worst extremi- ties of war will be rendered proper and accepta- ble to the most humane and christian spirit. It may be supposed that the unsettled state of the Mexican governme::t prevents access to any reg- | ular and authentic power, in order to effect a ne- Ee pe a The answers to this suggestion are: 1. he same unsettled condition would effectually | prevent the Mexican government from opening the negotiation. They cannot ask, if they have no authoritative mouths to speak. 2, No real | difficulty exists. The object is to have the offer from us substantially made. Never mind the form. A flag of truce sent by the commanding general would answer admirably; but 8—the re | resentatives of foreign powers now here would be delighted to have the opportunity to be the me- | dium of intercourse. The above are the views of | Mr. J. R. Ingersoll, one ofthe most respectable and talented whigs in Congress. He wants to antici- pate the offer of mediation which Sir Robert Peel | speaks of in his speech, which might embarrass our government. He is for doing for ourselves | what we intend to do, without dictation or media- tion—make use of the British government to car- ry our direct offer, and we avoid the embarrass- | ment of either accepting or refusing its proffer to | mediate. Mr. Ingersoll asked leave to offer the | following resolutions, which were reatt for infor- | mation, viz: | Resolved, by the Senate and House of Representatives | of tl Jnited States, etc, That at a period and under cir- cumstances when no fisbitit kets to misconstruction of | the measure, or danger of impeachment of the motives which induce it, a reasonable effort should be made con- sistently with national dignity and honor, for the restora- tion of peace between the Republic of the United States ; and that of Mexico. | ‘That the Senate and House of Representatives respect- fully recommend to the President that he offer, if, in his | judgment, it be expedient, to open with Mexico a nego- | tiation for the putpose of oe the una the prerext war, of stop- ping the effusion of human b! of provi manent and satisfactory coangemeit of all differences. That the offer now recommended cannot fail to produce (whatever may be its reception and. immediate effect) | ultimate consequences, alike honorable to the country and beneficial to the cause of justice. If accepted ina spirit corresponding with that which prompts it, this na- tion will be restored to its natural progressive course of Propriety and happiness, and w: ill secure to itself a senti- ment of universal good will. If refused, from whatev: cause the refusal may arise, the nation which assumes a responsibility so fulf of threatened wretchedness, will deprive itself of every claim to the sympathy of the world; ant this government and country will assume a position and so firm, that humanity itself will sanction » y continuance of the ravages of wi t no impediment exists to a comrauni nent of Mexico, by reason either of hostilities the two countries, or adisturbed state of public affairs in one of them. Intercourse may be opened, if necessary, from army to army, even at the point of the bayonet, or with better hopes, through the amicable agency of a friendly foreign power. ‘As soon as the resolutions were read, Messrs. Rathbum ‘and Dromgoole rose and objected to their reception 0 was received, stating that the President had e bill authorizing the issue of treasury notes A dull and dry debate ensued in the House on the bill requiring the Attorney General, in addition to the duties now imposed on him by law, to perform such other duties ‘an shall be enjoined on him by the President, relative to all matters of a legal character in which the United States may or shall be interested, and placing under his care the duties now performed by the Secretary ot :Btate, relating to the Patent Office, ke., and to raise h ej to $6.000, | which is now but $4, 600, with the peivilogs o practising law. In the course of the discussion there was a dialogue, in substanc |.

This bill was taken up, when Mr. Seaman very earnestly defended the appro for New York. The harbor was little better d than it was during the Revolutionary war; it was ex- | posed to blockade by a hostile fleet; and ir case of attack, would be almost at the mercy of an enemy. This he had from an officer of government. New York was becoming impatient at the “ialay, and she only asked to ¥ reimbursed for the cost of the land. It was the last time tne offer te sell would be made. If the United States wil) not buy, it will be sold to the bidder. Three-fofirths of the revenue were collected at the city ot New York ; the people of all the States were interes ted in the protection of the city, and he asked the appro priation as a matter of oe well as of justice.
