It is understood that Mr. Houston, Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means in the House, is about to report an important bill regulating the coinage, ‘The testimony before the Commissioner of Patents, on the application for an extension of the rubber and sul- phur combination patent, establishes the fact that it was in common use by the trade ten years before the patent wamgranted.

PASSAGE OF THE ANTI-BROADWAY RAILROAD BILL BY THE SENATE—THE CANAL QUESTION IN THE ASSEMBLY—THE LOBBYITES, ETC. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE NEW YORK HERATD. Asany, Jan. 28, 1853. The Broadway Railway question was finally settled to- day, after an animated and protracted discussion. After consuming two hours in debating the bill, as passed in Committee of the Whole yesterday, Mr. Taber said he had received letters from Brooklyn, and petitions from Wil- Vamsburg, praying that the provisions of the bill might be extended to those cities. As movements are already making to run similar railroads through the streets of those cities, he moved to re-comimit the bill to a select committee, te amend it so as to include all the cities of the State, and report forthwith. The President, Mr. MeMurray, appointed Messrs. Taber, Cooley, and Bartlett such committee, and a majority immediately reported back the bill as directed, the latter Senator dissenting. ‘The report was agreed to, and the bill was ordered toa third readin, When this was announced by the chair, Mr. Con- ger arose, evidently much disappointed at the result thus far, and again moved to re-commit, with instructions to strike out the enacting clause. He commenced a speech by intimating that, if a secret session was proper, he should exideevor to present certain facts implicating, cer- tain persons, not very“honorably in this Broadway affair. ‘Two or three Senators made inquiry as to what and who he meant, and desired an explanation. Mr. Conger replicd that the statement would be made as soon as a committee of investigation, which has been applied for, was constituted. Here this unpleasant affair dropped, and left a large lobby in a state of wonderment. the yote was finally taken, and the Dill received 21 votes—the exact number which I predicted peteiea The votes against it gre Messrs. Morgan of New York, Mr. Bartlett of Delaware, Mr. Bristol of Tioga, Mr. Conger ef Rockland, Mr. Cornell of Steuben, Mr. Davenport of Jefferson, and Mr. Pierce of Ulster. To-morrow is assigned for the consideration of the Pa- cific Railroad bill. It has several strong opponents, who, I think, have the strength to defeat it. The canal question absorbed the most of the time of the House. The motion to reconsider the vote by which Mr. Cooley's joint resolutions were defeated being in pr- taken, when the motion was lost, by 48 to NO 55. A plan for completing the canals is being prepared, and after careful consideration will be submitted, perhayss in the course of next week. Although but little business was done in either House, the questions under debate created more excitement within the bar and in the lobby than any day during the session. Almost every one of the New York delegation in the House is opposed to the anti-Broadway Railroad bill. Election of a United States Senator and State Officers of New Jersey. ‘Trenton, January 28, 1852. The Legislature, in joint meeting to-day, elected Wm. Wright, of Essex, United States Senator, by a vote of 48 to.20, over Jacob W. Miller. R. M. Smith was elected State Treasurer, and William B. Vanderveer Keeper of the State Prison, The old Inspectors of the State Prison were re-elected. THIRTY-SECOND CONGRESS, SECOND SESSION. Senate. Wasnrncton, Jan. 23, 1353. RESOLVED TO ADJOURN TILL MONDAY Mr. Manav, (whig) of N.C., moved that Senate adjourn it be till Monday. Mr. ADAM, (union) of Miss., opposed the motion. A vote resulted—nyes, 11; noes, 5. No quorum. Mr. Brien, (dem.) of Ind., said to-morrow was under- stood to be set apart for the Texas Debt bill. Mr. Mancuat said that Senator Poarce, who had charge of that bill, was not in a candition to enable him to be in in the Senate for several days. Mr. Mangum’s motion was agreed to. ‘TI SQUIERS’ TREATY. The Caam laid before the Senate a message from the Prosident, in reply to the resolution calling for informa- tion relative to the treaties of Squier and others with the Nicavazuan governments. The President declines to communicate the information asked, negotiations being still pending. . LIER BIL.

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, Mr. Venanir, (dem.) of N.C., moved the House take up the Senate bill abolishing all right to hold bail on mesne process in the District of Columbia. Mr. SwexrzEn, (dem.) of Ohio, objected. Mr. Jonxs, (dem.) of Tennessee, gave notice that if he should get the floor on Monday, he would endeavor to have it taken up. There was a man now in jail, and had been there for three months. It was case of the most oppressive tyranny ever known in a civilized country. TIE COMMITTEK ON CLAIMS—NO ATTENTION GIVEN TO REPORTS BY THM HOUSE. Mr. Mace, (dem.) of Ind., asked to be discharged from service as a member of the Committee on Claims. He said he entered upon the discharge of his duty faithfully, and could say that every member af the committee had profitably and efficiently been engaged in the discharge of duty. The committee had prepared for the action of the Howse a vast number of bills in behalf of honest and just claims against the government. ‘The action of the House had been such that the committee had been called but once during the present and the last sossion of Con- gress. did not, therefore, wish to be involyed in the examinatton of so mach business, when Congress will not act upon it, If it be the object of the House to deny justice to claimants, it is better for them and the coun- try that they should know it, Having washed his hands of the injustice to which he had adverted, and placed the facts on record, he respectfully withdrew his request. ‘The House went into Committee of the Whole on the PRIVATE CALENDAR, Finally, aa private bills were passed, and the House adjourned. ‘The James Adger at ° CHartaston, Jan. 28, 1853, The U.S, mail steamship James Adger arrived at hor balm in this city, from New York, at seven o'clock this evening. NEW YORK LEGISLATURE, Senate. Atnany, Jan. 28, 1853, ‘THE BROADWAY RAILROAD BILL Being the first business in order, was taken up. Mr. Bristor (dem.) offered an amendment, so aa to pro vide that the general railway act be amended, making it necessary to obtain the assent of the Legislature for building railways through cities. —, The debate was continned by Mr. Van Scwoonnovey (whig.) Mr. Cooury (dem.) urged that the Common Couneil of New York have granted the privilege of building the, Broadway Railroad against the wishes of sixty thoasand petitioners, and in such a way as to sacrifice a million of dollars. Allusion had been made to tho superiority of our government over that of despotic countries; but the difference in the case of the citizens of New York seemed to be, that the people of despotic countries had but ono tyrant, while the oppressed people of the city seemed to be harrassed by a thousand. Mr. C. denounced, with great earnestness, the course of the New York Common Council. He concluded by moving the reference of the Dill to a select committee, to make its provisions appli- cable to all the cities. Mr. Taner (whig) had undorstood that in the cities nearest New York, the necessity for a law regulating the building of railroads by cities was already manifesting it- self. Ho moved to re-commit, so as to amend, by making the bill a general one. ‘The question being about to be taken on the motion to re commit, Mr. Prence (dem.) said this was an illustration of the benefit to be derived from deliberation. J Mr. Bancock (whig) said, only in one locality in tho State have the corporate authorities attempted to exer cise this franchise. There are roads running into and through cities, under power given by the general law: but from New York alone has the complaint come--only in New York has the evil arisen. ee ‘The debate was continued at great length by Mr. Pierce, Mr. Taber, and Mr. Morgan, and the motion to re-com- mit prevailed, by 21 to 5. ‘The Select Committee consisted of Senators Bartlett, Taber, and Cooley Mr. Cornett (dem.) moved to adjourn. 11; noes, 18. And then Mr, Tanor, from the Select Committee on the Broadway Railroad biil, reported it as amended, under the direction of the Senate, Mr. Barruerr (dem.) expressing his opposition to the report. : Mr. Concer (dem.) moved to amend the report of the commitice, by striking out the enacting clause.

THE COLLECTION OF TAXES, The bill to extend the time for collecting taxes in certain towns of the State, was passed. THE CANAL QUESTLON. — * Mr. Cuamptiy, (dem.) of Allegany, resumed his remarks on the reference to the Governor's message. In 1836 the State had 700 miles. The canal debt was then three mil- lions. The revenues have since been forty millions—ten millions of which have been used to defray the needful ex- penditures, The balance ought to haye not only com- pleted our canal enlargement, but it would also haye paid the debt of 1636. ‘The canals thus completed would now produce an annunl revenue of $2,500,000, ‘The tolls might now be reduced, and they would have furnished the cheapest channels of transportation in the world—no railroad could possibly compete with them. But how different is now their condition! We have a canal debt of over sixteen millions, and the canals are not yet com- pleted. The capacity of our canals had certainly been somewhat increased by recent improvement—but the canals are yet unfinished, and we are burthened with an enormous debt. Had we adhered to the system of using the revenues for the enlargement, different would now be our financial condition! Mr Champlin reviewed the reports of the Canal Boards and the messages of the Governors, during a numberof years past, to show, in reply to the remarks of Mr. Bur- roughs, that the cheapness of labor and of provision» had always acted as an element in their estimates and recom- mendations. Mr. C. also commented with much severity on the canal lettings of 1851, and desired to know whether ny member desired to renew the scenes of bribery and jonest management which were tien witnessed in this Mr. C. did not claim for his own party exclusive dship to the canals; the opposition doubtless desired their completion, but the measure they propose he re- garded as unsafe and injurious. Were we to go to the people with an amendment of the constitution, authori- zing a canal debt, the enemies of State indebtedness, and the influences of railroad monopolies, might ensure it defeat. ‘The enlargement would thus be postponed several years. The wiser plan he considered to be the ecoaomi- cal expenditure of the surplus revenues, from year to year, for the enlargement. In this way the work would be done enfely, surely, and economically, Mr. Gate, (dem.) of N. Y., reviewed ‘the speech of Mr. Burrough Mr. Bistax, (whig) of Washington, continued the de- bate by strictures upon the Governor's message. Mr. Incatrs, (dem.) of Washington, did not intend to ocenpy the House at this time, but he could not sit quiet- ly, when his colleague had called him to the floor. would never avoid any responsibility. Whatever he felt it his duty to do, he would not shrink from. It is charged upon the Governor that he does net supply uz with a plan of canal enlargement. But we find no definite an- swer suggested by the gentieman who made this ot tion, He did not think a factious opposition to the party in power, would meet the approval of the people. The proper course for both parties, was to calmly, deliver y. and wisely adopt a policy for carrying out the object of the enlargement. Mr. INcazts gave way to Mr. West, (dem..) of Je‘Terson who moved to lay the special order on the table to take up his motion to reconsider the vote on the concurrent resolutions to refer the Governor's message toa joint committee of the two houses, This was agreed to. In the course of his remarks, Mr, West said but a few arguments had beon adduced on either side of the ques tion. A plan had already been offered in the Senate with regard to the subject of the enlargement, andhe doubted many more would be proposed. There was danger that members would become so wedled to their owa measures that hartnonious action would be impossible. He thought a specific project, matured and presented by « a joint committee, would be more likely to be adoptel than any plan proposed in either House. He had no feeling on the subject, further than a desire to promote the public welfare. He would concede much to secure definite action by the Legislature. Mr. Nonrx, (dem.) of N. ¥., thought the simple ques- tion of reference to a joint committee was of itself of but little importaneo, But the discussion had taken a wide range. He lived ina canal distriet—not one in whick a mile of canal was located, but one especially interested In all our works of public improvement. At first he might have voted for the joint committee, but so many extra- neous subjects had been dragged forward that the ques tion now assnmed a different aspect, ‘The question of recon: ‘dering the vote ona joint com- mittee was taken and lost by ayes 48, noes 55. as follow AYES.—Mes Ashley, Boman, Burnet, Bur- roughs, Bush Case, Chattield, Clapp, Cook, Dubois, ay Ellsworth, I.

My Dear Sin :—Your note of yesterday came'to hand this morning, and I hasten to do justice to a politica ponent, who is now in his graye,” You say that stated in your presence, that President Poli was heart. Jess and cold, and that one of his coldest acts was, that he vacated the White House several days before the Pro dent elect came to Washington, for fear of opening his heart s0 as toask him to his house and table. It is due to Mr. Polk to say that I know this to be untrue. Gene- ral Taylor and myself were both invited to dine with hin, and did dine with him before he leftthe White House, and T have no doubt all the civilities ordinarily extended to the incoming administration, were extended by President Polk to General Taylor, and, according to my recollection he did not leave the White House till the ‘4th, or rather the 5th of March, which was Monday. The confusion in- cident to the close of a session of Congress, and the break ing upof houekeeping by the President's family, must necessarily prevent any President from doing more than Mr, Polk did in the case of Gen. Taylor, and, if lam right- ly informed, many of his predecessors did not do as much Tam, respectfully, yours, MILLARD FILLMORE, City Intelligence. ‘Tur Wearisr.—The very severe cold of Thursday eve- ning and night continued up to one o’closk yesterday morning, when the weather moderated.

We understand that the decision of the court sustained the position assumed by Cayuj Lodge, and overrules the demurrers interposod in behalf of the members who withhold the funds contributed for the objects of benevolence and charity. It is, therefore, an important decision, not only to the Order of Odd Fel- lows, but to the Order of Sons of Temperance, Free Ma- sons, Martha Washington and other charitable societie which are not incorporated.
