Mr. Sewaap presented the petition of Ebenezer At- Water, of New York. stating that while the President and his Cabinet wore travelling through that State, he was engaged to fire a saiuto, and, in so doing, lost both of his arms, and he wow preys for a pension, Mr, Davis presented a petitiom from the Bar of Boston, raying for au increase of the salary of the United States a of Maseachuse Ir. Summxx, of Massachusetts, presented several pe- titions against the restoration of flogging in the navy. LANDS IN O1110, Mr. Crase said, that, for peculiar reasons, he should be obliged to leave the eity for two or three weeks, and he would take it as a particular favor if the Senate would now take up the bill granting to the State of Ohio the unsold and unappropriated lands remaining in that State. The motion was agreed to. Mr. Hvnrer. (dem.) of Va., asked how much land was granted by the bill. Mr. Cras: said, that om 30th of September last, there remained of the public lands, in Ohio, 216,000 acres, chief- ly refuse lands. The United States had received into its treasury, from the sales of public land in Ohio, during the last ‘sixty-five years, over twenty millions of dollars; her citizens bad paid Connecticut and other grantees of the United States for public lands in Ohio. over thirteen millions of dollars ; Obio, then, had paid over thirty mil- lions of dollars for Uhe public lands in her limits, It would require a grant of more than 2.000.000 acres to Ohio to make the grants to ber iv aid of internal improvements eusl to the grants made to Ilinois, . Mr. Scmyvr. (free soil) of Mass,, said he eould not yote for the bill; he was in favor of a graduation ef the price of these lands, and would give Ohio # pre-emption right to them. This was @ new principle, and he could not vote for it. Mr. Suuvins, (dem.) of M., said the lands remaining unsold in Ohio were nearly all refuse land. and the go- vernment would save money by giving them away, then the land offices, &c., in that State could be dis- pensed with. Mr. Davis, (whig) of Mass,, asked what was the amount ofthe sales of land in Ohio during the past year. Mr. Criase eaid that the expenses of the land offices in Ohio wore over five thousand dollars a year, and that since land warrants had become # currency. he doubted whether the receipts for the sales of landin that State would exceed that amount. Mr. Dawson, (whig) of Ga., sald that this bill establixb- eda new principie—the unconditional surrender of the ublic lands to the States in which they lie, Its passage, e thought, would lead to others of a similar character. He preferred a graduation of the price of the lands to this bill, If the lands were worth fifty centsan acre, that fifty cents ought to be paid to the United States, If we vemaining lands, Indiana will ask the too, next year, will make a similar do- mand will be inade, perhaps, under the favorable auspices of one of her citizens filling the exeeu- tive ebuir, [Uinels, too, may present her claims for the same ,iant, under similar anapices, and the same might of Alabama. said the precedent had already been set. zz in Tennessee tuindld, in 1845, truo; but the land granted | sin the market st twenty-five | ve then given jos eduestional pur- Davrs said that In 1840 there were over 800,000 | unsold ; the balance unsold now if this wore so, it would appear that the le enough to be sold very repidly, y ye was 216 000, lends were ve Atehison, Borland, Dodge of to ‘alkor.

He owed them no thanks for past favors, and no grudges for past Injuries, He occupied a position to mete out exact Justice to all, Fron the very commencement of this af- fuir to the consumination, tho mamo# of Donelson and Armstrong have been mentioned, and these gentlemen were sought to be made printers, Mr. Sranton, (dem:).of Ky., said that remark did not apply to bim, for he hindaltempted, at an early period of the xtruggle. to employ Donelson and ‘Armatrongy and Ba oft ved # resolution in the Printing Committeo ac- cordingly, Mr, Brows rejoined, that still he found the had voted to put Donelron and Armstrong in poston ee The public interests were made to those of private individuals. Ile would now put on trial the gentleman. who (a democrat). coming from a slave State, had gone into coalition with Senator Truman Amith, of Connecticut, an abolitionist, free soiler and whig. It seema that no account is taken of a coalition like this. It is all right. But if he (Brown) acted with others nat the coalition, it is all wrong. Mr. Svanton-—We succeeded in bringing an abolition whig Stnator to support a comp: press, Mr. Brownx—Yes, and in this conjunction you seleoted the whig Republic, a newspaper which has Tomo with more abuse of the demoeratic majori than any other paper from Maine to Louisiepa.

Can Task & question? I see that a coalition is now formed. The gentleman from New York (Mr, Preston King) says Lam not in order in asking a question, Mr. Brown resumed, saying thal the Republic is fut- tened and mado sleek by tho patronage of the Executive department. Between this paper and the Intelligencer he would have taken the old fogies (Gales & Scaton) of the latter He threw out afriendly warning, that if pro- scription is to be commenced for opinion’s sake, against that portion of the democrats who support the ‘Southern Press newepaper, there can bo proscription.on this side as well ns onthe other, Ho offered a resolution, of which the following is the substance:— That the report be referred to the Committee on Judi- ciary, with instructions to report on the whole subject, and recommend for tho adoption of Congress such a ayvt xecution of the public printing as they shall tl U podient, and especially to take into consideration a printing bureau, under the superintendence of a govern- ment officer. Mr, Fionxncr, (dem.) of Pa., moved to amend, by adding a bill for thoestablishment of a national office, aud. entered into a history of the contract system. He vindi- cated A, Boyd Hamilton, the contractor, and contended that the object was to break him down and build up partizan editors, He could not understand why a demo- crat, without anewspaper, should be treated so badly, and a democrat, with a newspaper, should bo go highly favored. Mr. Orr, (dem.) of 8. C., concurred in the views ex- preseed by Mr. Brown. of Miss., and said that if a news- paper cannot sustain itself without treasury pap and bounties, it ought to go by the board. Mr. Poux wished to say to Mr, Brown, of Mississippi, and other gentlemen, that he had been a democrat as long as they have, and if they Intend to exercise an in- fluence to distract the party—come they from the North or South--if such a combination is to be found--and if they intend to perform such an act of outrage on the democratio 'y—he wanted them to proclaim it like men. If, said he, they drive us to the wall, we will go there, and [ am ready now togothere to save the pillars of the Capitol. and denounee those who prowi on the out- skirts of the camp. T have endeavored to be conciliatory, and te harmonize our own party as far as an expression of sentiment can do it; but do not ask me to sit down, fraternize, coalesce, and saympathise with a man who stands ready te stab the party, and with a single blow semd it to the grave; but when tho gentleman makes such a threat, he must understand that there is a ponderous arm which will strike for the safety of the Union, and that ponderous arm will be found to batzle againsi them. ‘The gentleman from Mississippi, in a1 swer toa question yesterday, said that on the great issues which unite him with the gentleman from Massachu- setts, (Mr. Rantoul) they act together. Now, I wish to know whether the gentleman stands at this heur shoulder te shoulder with the man from Massachusetts, who would steal » negro if he had a chance? (Sensa- tion.) Lsay this with the full responsibility which fol- lows ish to state the reasons for my opinions. The records of the country furnish it, and the speeches of the gentleman from Massachusetts read so, and, th fore, I feel authorized from the records to ark the tleman from Mississippi. who cats a ccal of fire and dripks «quite water lo pat it out, whether he doesnot stand in a sweet embrace with the gentleman from Mas- sachusetts ? Mr. Brown, of Miss.—I said yesterday, and I repeat to- day, that on the old democratic issues 1 do not recognise the gentleman from Massachusetts as to the question whether I coalesco with him or the slavery question. The gentleman from Tennessee knows perfectly well I do not. Mr. Poux—The gentleman says he does not coalesce with him ; but why not vote together ona question which agitates and is cadling out, if you like, the strength of the party? Mr. Ravrour, (free soil) of Mass.—I wish to interrup! the gentleman, not because it is necessary ow my own account, but because it is right the House should not be misinformed as to the historieal facts relating to parties or members of this House. I therefore ask the gentle- man to produce the record to sustain his charge, Mr. Porx—What's that? Mr. Raxtovi—I understood the gentleman to say I stand on the reeord in a peculiar condition. Mr. Porx—If the gentleman claims to be a democrat I Will not act in the seme fold with him. He claims to be a free oiler. and I believe any man who prostitutes him- self to the miserable sympathies of the abolitionists will steal a negro, Mr. Rawrour—I shall not notice the last remark, Mr. Pouk—Of course not. Mr. Raytovr—t will, however, notice tha other state- ment. He says I stand here chosen by the free soilers. Now, I was nominated unanimously by the old line of de- mocrats of my district. in the fullest caucus held for many years. I came here. first, nominated by # convention of delegates; secondly. hy a mess convention, to which all the democrats were fuvited, In the next place, I. never nc- cepted a nomination by the free soil party in my lifo. ‘The free soil party, however, voted for mo, and I was happy to receive their votes, Mr, Porx—Oh! yes; a negto would have been thank- ful for that, Mr, Ranvovr—I say to the gentleman from Tennessee, or to any other gentieman who may choose to say that he Will have no fellowship with me, that it is a matter for his own option, It is for him to decide whether he will act in the sam not. it is for him to step out of the democratic party, for I shall not do so, Mr, Porx—He will not be permitted to step out, but will be ordered out, (Langhter.)

Aumany, April 14, 185%. Atan early Lour thi- morning, the Senate took up the report of the committee on college apvropriations, The sums allotted to the several select colleges, ta the ex- clusion of others, showed an inkling towards “log roll- ing” them through, which Senators McMurray, Cornell, Coley and Pierce, quickly discovered, ‘Tho ndvooates ‘of these appropriations refrained, for a long time, from showing thoir hands as (o what fund the money was to come from. It was well known that there was nothing in the Treasury belonging to the literature or United States doporit fundsthat could bo taken. It was finally stated that It was proposed to take the money from the gonorul fund. This was contested with much offort until 7 o'clock this evening, when the gubjeot was laid on the table, which effectually dis ‘of the bills, with no re- gret to thore Senators who have no faith in institutions supporting ecores of profoxorships from the public ‘Treasury. Mr McMurray, (dem.) ma:ioa report from the “ Black Mail’ Committee, as it is called, appoiuted for tho pur- pose of Inquiring whut banks Nad received canal tolls upon giving w reward, gift, Or gratuity, for the privi- lee. ‘Wittiam Williams, cashicr of White's Bank of Buffalo, testificd that he employed Seth (. Hawley and E. Pe- shine Smith to proceed to Albany, and influence the mem- bers of the Canal Board to give that bank a portion of tho canal toll deposits, and paid them ‘er their services. ‘The bank obtained one-twelfth of the funds collected at Buffalo and Black Rock, D. N, Barney, another witness, is president of the Bank of Lake Eric, He also employed S.C, Hawley, because he (B.) did not know the course to be pursued; hay er, to his knowledge, paid Hawley any monoy for that service, but ditcounted two notes for him in 1849 and 1850, of $250 cach, for ninety days; neither have been paid, and no efforts have been mado to collect them, nor had he ever asked Hawley to pay them; he was employed in 1840 and 1850 to influence tlie Canal Board. Robert Codd, of Bufito, paid Hawley $250 at one time, and $150 at another, to obtain canal tolls for his bank. A third attempt was made by Hawley to obtain a note discounted, but the officers of the bank informed him that they would not be bled any more, F. H. Tows. late President of the Oliver Loe Bank, of Buffalo, bad also employed Hawley, and had paid him some $3,000 to attend to the interests of that bank, in obtaining and retaining canal tolls. The following is the copy of a letter uccompanying the testimony of this witness : . “ Arsany, August 6th, 1X50. “Dra Hawnsy: I want to know’ whether Town has done what is right.

ROGGLES.” It wil be recollected that Ruggles was then Auditor of the Canal Department—having under his control the en- tire amount of canal tolla. No action was taken upon Mr, MeMurray’s report. Mr, Taber (whig) objected to its being read at’ the clerk's desk, In the Assembly a committee was appointed to exam- ine the treasurer's accounts, ‘The annual appropriation bills were under discussion during the day. The time was consumed in discussing sums, which ‘alinost every member wanted in for some local institution, or some icular friend—a system of concerted extortion which ractised at the last moments of every session.

One cashier paid an agent $1,000in x single year, and in a single year discounted his notes for another $1,000, on the above understanding, in consideration of is political influence with the Canal Board. That a system of exac- tion has been practised on the banks, and by them decmed necessary to procure these deposita, is satisfucto- rily proven.
