Senate. Wasninoron, August 18, 1952, PETITIONS, REPORTS, ETC. Several unimportant petitions wore prevented, and re- ports made. Mr. Dopce reported a bill establishing an additional land office in Minnesota territory, which was considered and ordered to be engrossed. Mr. Gwin introduced a bill, granting land to California, to aid in the construction of a canal across Sierra Nevada valley. Mr. Hunter reported back the bill extending the ware- housing system, by establishing private bonded ware- houses. MR. BENNETT'S LAND DISTRIBUTION BILL, Mr Fish gave notice, that on the day after to-morrow he would move, during the morning hour, to take up the House bill knownas “Bennett’s Land Distribution Bill.” The vote on it yesterday, when offered as an amend- ment to the Canai bill, was not upon its merits, THE LOBOS ISLANDS—CONTEMPLATED ANNEXYTION, Mr. Hate offered a revolution directing an inquiry, by the Committee on Foreign Relations, as to the expediency of annexing the Lobos Islands to the United States, Laid over. PASSAGE OF BILLS—THE SHIP CANAL, ETC, ‘The bill in aid ofa ship canal around the Falls of St. Mary, in Michigan, was passed, Mr. Doveas moved to take up the bill directing the. manner of paying out appropriations heretofore made to detray the expenses of the Cayuse war in Oregon. Agreed to, and the bill was passed. A private bill was considered and passed. Several mo- tions to take up bills were made and rejected. MISCELLANEOUS. The bill granting land to the several States for the suppert of the indigent insane—Miss Dix’s bill—was re- ceived from the House, and referred to a select commit- lee of five. The bill tor the relief of Captain Langdon ©, Eastman was taken up, and postponed till Friday Mr. HuntsR gave notice that to morrow, during the morning hour. he would move to take up the Civ and Diplomatic Appropriation bill. Mr. Hate gave notice that he Would, during the morn- irg hour, move to take up the Homestead bill. ‘THE RIVVR AND HARBOR BILL Mr, Davis moved, and the River and Harbor was taken up, ‘The first amendment, reported by the Committee Commerce, was in the item appropriating $75,000 for a ship canal from the Mistissippi river to the Gulf of Mexi- ce, the sume to be done by contract, by striking out the words, “to report said contract, the progress of said work. and an estimate of the annual cost of keeping said channel open,’ and to insert in lieu thereof the fullow- ing words : “to report the progress of the work, the amount necessary to complete it, and an estimate ot the annual cost of keeping said channel open, and any con- tracy mae shall be limited to the amount hereby ap- ropriated.”” v Mr. Downs. (dem.) of La., opposed the amendment. It was verbal. and unnecessary. lie thought the friends of the Dill, in order to secure its passage, should vote down all amendments, and pass the Dill as it now stands. Mr. Hamury. (dem.) of Me., explained that the amend- ment was necestury to prevent mistake as to the con- tract. Mr. Cass, (dem.) of Mich., said he thought the bill a good one as it stcod and he would object to any amend. ment being made toit. In doing so, he and his col- league were as disinterested as any Senator could be. Michigan, with a coast of one thousand miles, had appropriations ovly of forty thousand dollars, while other Buites, with fur less coasts, had much large appropriations, ‘the bill was a moderate one, and, i amendments were adopted, i: would endanger its passage, ‘The next session was only three months off, and ull im- justice which may have been done can be obviated. The delay will not be of much consequence, for none of the appropriations for the north or northwest could he ex- pended beiore spring. ‘Mr, Bortann, (dem..) of Ark , pomted out the unequal appropriations made by the bill’ Though the represen- tutives of Western States have the most to complain of the inequalities, still it would hazard, if not defeat, the Lill to make smendments, and send it back to the House at this time, He would oppose all amendments, and yote for the bill as it is. Le (dem.,) of.La., was im favor of the amend- ported, It was necessary, If it were the only be would not insist upon it, or upon sending the bili to the House; but it was well known there were many other amend@hents to be made, Mr. Bercur. (dem.) of Towa, considered this was the time to test whether any amendments should be made, He thought the bill was une- qual to its sppropriations; but he would prefer to take it as it was. to defeating it by amendments. If emendments were made, he had several to offer him- relf, Mr. Axcrisox, (dem.) ot Mo,, said the Senators from Michigan and indiana, had arrived at a principle, that all amendments to make perfect a bill, which was acknow- ledged by them to be detective—which does not provide for the Wert—:hali be voted down, Only $260,000 were appropriated for the Mississippi iiver, when those very Senators knew that that sum would not purchase snag boats for the Missouri and Arkansas alone, not saying anything ot the grcat trunk of the Mississippi, The bill was, in ail its particulars, the same bill whien was vetoed by President Polk. Le was not aware that the senti- ments of Senators who voted (o sustain that veto had undergone any change. If every appropriation contained in the bill was proper in itself. stil, coming as this bill did, with something appropriated for every Congressional district in the Union. he would vote against it as fraudu- lent on its face. Mr. Prarr, (whig) of Md., said that the argument that President Polk vetoed « bill similar to this, might or might not haye force; but Congress passed that bill—Polk vetoed it, and the people vetoed him at the next elec- tion. Mr. Doveras. (dem ) of Ill, said Polk was not a can- didate. Mr. Prart said he was before the convention, and it refused him. Mr. Apants, (dem) of Miss., said on his own knowledge he knew that Polk was not # candidate before that con- vention Mr. Prart defended the appropriation for Patapsco river, and epposed the adoption of any amendment. Mr. Rusk. (dem.) of Texas, protested against the doc- tuine now advanced, that this bill must be taken for bet- ter or worse, just as it stands, This was a sort of knock- down argument, which he did not approve of. If carriet out, the Senate was to become mere registers of the ap- propriations of the House. He pointed out many of the defects contained in the bill. The appropriations for the Western rivers were wholly inadequate to the necessities of these works. and should be increased. Mr. Casa said the debate showed that if the work o° amendment was once commenced, every Senator woul propose amendments. and the bill would become over- loaced, and would break down of its own weight. The reference to Polk’s veto did not include him. He voted for that bill which was vetoed. His name was to be found in the affirmative, on its pas- enge. While it was im Mr Poik’s hands, he even went to him, and suggested considerations why the President ought to sign it. His position then and now was in favor of any reasonable River and Harbor bill—the Chicago Convestitem letter, and “noise and confusion” to the contrary, motwithstanding. He hoped no amendment would be made to the bill. Mr Burzan, (dem.) of 8. C., said that sucha bill as this ovghtto be accompanied by a report showing the necessity for the works, Hew was he to understand why he was to vote the icularsums contained in the bill for particular works? He would like to know upon what data the bill was prepared. Mr. Davis, (whig) of Maas., eaid the bill was prepared, ‘as all others were, upon estimates from dopartments of fumes neceseary for carrying on during the current year, works commenced by the government, vi repairs of those in progress. iis. hasom, (dem.) of Va, opposed the principle of cutting off all amendments. by agreement am the friends of the bill. He believed the House would take the bill, no matter what amendment the Senate might add to it. Mr. Brit, (whig), of Tenn., sald—Senators whose por- tion of the country was provided for, might say they were satisfied with the bill; but he was not. Minor objections had been provided for, yet nothing was done for the im- provement of the Cumberland or Tennessee rivers. He ‘was in favor of perfecting the bill by amendments, and if be Houre refused to adopt them, the Senate could re- cede. Mr. Downs renewed his opposition to endangering the bill by amendments, Mr Ilaxe, (free foil), of N. H., followed in general re- marks <n the bill. He would vote for the amendments ond would vote for the bill Mr. Marvony, (dem), of Fa., said—The attempt to force the bill, without emendment, would cause him to vote a vit It contained no appropriation for the dangerous const Of Florida * Mr. Mason moved the postponement of the bill, for an executive session Lost Mr. Sov: e followed, in support of tho amendaent and Ms. Downs opposedit NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. | 25 Qari) ini wernt pamed several instances in which appropriatins should be added. Mr. Dawson (whig), of Ga,, followed, readiny first from Mr Case's 5] at the last session, in whivft he opposed the bill then pending because there was no esti- mate for some of its items by departments. He opposed this adoption of the previous question by cutting off ali amendments, ‘Mr. Cass replied that he occupied the same position then that he did now. If the Senator could show an seem in this bill not estimated for, he would vote to strike out. Mr. Bricrir said the bill last year contained twenty- One items not estimated for, Mr. Dawson briefly replied. ‘The Senate, at a quarter past four o’clock, adjourned House of Representatives, Wasrivaron, August 18, 1852, THE WHEELING BRIDGE Case, ‘The House resumed the consideration of the bill de- claring the Wheeling Bridge to be legal structures and post routes. Mz: Cunriss spoke against, and Mr. Newrow in favor of tho bill. Ma, Srvanr gaid they had other important subjects to dispose of, and therefore to test the sense of the House he moved the previous question, which was seconded, Messrs. Walsh ond Fowler obtained permission t» their views on the subject. 8 was interrupted in his closing spvech by the lon of the morning hour, THE NAVY APPROPRIATION BILL, A resolution was adopted to close the general debate on the Navy Appropriation bill in half an hour. The Hous: went into committee on that bill. Mr. Sxriton, (dem.) of N.J., spoke in favor of an amendment, authorizing the Secretary of the Navy tocar- ty out the contract with Robert L, Stevens, for construct- ing @ steamship, shot and bomb proof. He said, money and time have already been expended upon the work, and that the entire cost would not exceed $500,000-—an inconsiderable sum, when considered in connection with harbor defence, partioularly that of New York, where there is so much wealth and commerce. He proceeded to show that this means of defence is cheaper, and more efficient than fortifications, as it can be brought to act immediately in case of sudden invasion.

Desrerate Artemet to Commit Surcron.— Yesterday afternoon. # man, apparently a sailor, stopped at a grocery store in Prospect street, near Bridge, and seizing a large knife used for cutting beet, deliberately drew the instru- ment across his throat, and severed his windpipe nearly in twain. He then left the store, knife in hand, and in- flicted another gash, when he walked @ short distance, and fell down from loss of blood, He was tee up and carried to the horpital. where he now lies in a precarious condition. He refused to give his name. domestic in the family, who committed suicide by taking an over dose of some narcotic poison. The deceased, it seems, was 4 native of Ireland, and twenty-three years of age, and had been cook im Mr. Halaey’s einploy for the last Ubree years past. Latterly it was noticed that she becsme despondent, and very low spirited, exclaiming frequently tbat she would rather die than live; that Georg would be the deathof her. This George it appears, is a young manto whem she was much attached, but, during the last month or two, he had for- saken her, which circumstance is believed to have beem the cause of her destroying her life. On Monday last, Mr. Halsey and family being out of town, Kliaabeth I; cousin to the deceased, who was likewise & servant in the houee, noticed an unusual downcast appearance in Mary; and that pight, on going to bed, Mary seemed to bo vory uneasy, but ina short time she appeared to fall aslecy and in’ the morning, about four o'clock, Blizal was woke up by the deceased making a loud breathing. and rattling in the threat, Flizabech touched her amd found her hands and arms cold, She then endeavored to arouse her, but finding that impossible, assistance waa Procured, ‘and Dr. Maxwell sent for.’ The physician came, and from the coma state she was in, supposed it to be apoplexy, and 4pened the vein in the arm. and took some blood from her. It did not, however, give any re- ief, In the afternoon, Dr, Robinson attended, He used the’stomach pump, but all the remedies proved unavailing, as she died at 12 o clock, That night Dr. Lidell, surgeon to the Coroner made @ post mortem examination of the body, but could not find any decided traces of poison. The brain was not conjested, and the eonjestion of the lungs was only slightly exhibited;yet from ali the circumstances, the fact of finding ap empty bottle labelled laudanum, and the general appearance of the body, it was evident, im the opinion of the medical witnesses, that the deceased came to her death by some narcotic poison. The jury, after a deliberation of over an hour, found “That the de- ceased came to her death by an overdose of some narcotic poison, supposed to have been administered by herself.” ‘The body was taken by the sister of deceased to her resi- deuce Up town. from whence the funeral will take plae, The Rey.
