ULAR REVELATION—GECRGE LAW'S FAMOUS MUSEETS—GEORGE SANDERS IN LONDON. ‘WasimnGron, March 22, 1854. learn from Mr. Reid, the brother-in-law of the celo- ted George Sanders, late Consul in London, that the ter has effected the sale of 200,000 of the famous sited States muskets connected with the operations of orge Law. Their sale was made to certain revolution- capitalists in London, in preparation for the explo- nof democracy on the Continent as soon as France H England shall have been actively engaged with Rus- |. Over one million of dollars have been paid for them, George Sanders’ commissions will be $100,000, and pfge Law’s profits probably $500,000. he Revolutionary Committee of London is composed the democratic refugees of the Continent, and they dined in conclave with George Sanders several times. e British capital invested in this business is estimated millions of dollars, all ready and prepared for a erpl revolution in France, Italy and Germany, as soon he great Russian war is in mid-career. This is the on that Kossuth and the Continental republicans e refrained from going to Turkey. They are going to up revolutions in , Which may assist the Czar A upset Lonis Nay f, understand, also, that the British government got ne inkling of George Sanders’ movements with the olutionists, and contrived through the intrigues of mpton and Marcy to aid his defeat as Consul to Lon- before the United States Senate. Will be seen that George Law has at last disposed of famous muskets, and I suppose he will now be able to what he owes to Thomas N. Carr, who once went to for him on a musket mission, a few years since. brge Law owes Mr. Carr, in expenses and commissions ‘that trip, from $6,000 to $10,000, and can well afford pay this small bill out of his profits of $400,000 or 0,000. peti: If the British goverament should find out George Sanders and the revolutionists have been lcocting in. London, 1 suspect that they would soon them their walking papers, and pack them off for or the United States. ‘AL ARRANGEMENTS WITH BAVARIA AND LUBEC —AFFRAY—THE GADSDEN TREATY AND GAS. lhe papers of this morning announce that Bavaria and c having acceeded to the United States and Bremen tal arrangements, the single rate to those States is od from twenty-two to fifteen cents. n affray occurred last night between Mr. Clark Mills “Gol, Mitchell.

ION OF THE HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION ON NAVY CONTRACTS. fr. Gwix, (dem.,) of Cal., from the Committee on Na- Affairs, reported back the House joint resolution giv- the Navy Department power to reject, under certain nces, bids for supplying the navy with provi- is, clsthing, and small stores. ir. Pratt, (whig) of Md., said this resolution estsb- danew principle in the contract system. Under present law any lowest bidder, able to give the re- red security, was entitled to receive the contract—but Her this resolution the bid of no man, no matter what gmeans or ability, could be accepted unless he were a wiacturer or general dealer in the specified article. ould be better to abolish the principle of giving con- to the lowest bidders, and let the department go o the market and purchase articles required. ir. Gwis read aletter from the Navy Department, ‘ing the serious losses and constant inconveniences hich the service was subjected in consequence of be- placed at the merey of the speculators. The resolu- ‘also gave power to the department to purchase flour California and distant stations which would not spoil voyage, which was the case with all the flour fur- dby contractors. One article of which large quan- were in the navy was blue flannel, and thatar- fe bad apn furnished - @ manufacturer according to tract and sample. This year another person had un- ‘bid a sunall fraction the manufacturer, and of eleven ferent furnished had not yet delivered any ‘an inferior article. Yet the department was obli hace the bids of such speculators as long as they ower than bids of persons who could and woul fur- Sy ess repeated his objections to the resolution. it, Gwin replied, and as an instance ef the evils under teh the department labored, mentioned the case of & pehandier in New York who had obtained the con- ct for shoes, clothing, &c., at prices under those at ielt articles could be furnished by manufacturers, and aeqvently would not furnish any but inferior ar- et. tr, Suistpa, (dem.) of Ill., favored the resolution. He ought ihe whole congract system for furnishing sup. 4 for the army and navy required, and woul have to ‘orgo, thorough revision. 1854. fr. Crayton, (Whig) of Del., supported the resolution. fr. Cave, (dem) of Mich. ¢ was opposed to in- ing proj rom all classes, and accepting only ‘se made by persons belonging to a particular class. fr , (dem.) of Ia., said he could not vote for J lution equality to all citizens to bid for itracts for furnishing government with provisions, thing, &c., for thearmy or the he joint resolution passed—' LAND BILLS PASSED.

The estion pending was on Mr. Petit’s motion to strike out » ninth section, which increases by sixty-{wo the num- : of-vadeta to be appointed every four years, and gives dir appointment to the Senators of their respective ates.

He never w: able to understand why any class of government officers should be educated at public expense, and none others. If it was proper to educate and train up men at public expense, to lead armies and serve a8 gugineers, why was iy ish schddtx for the educa nits, secretaries, Ciplomatists, senators and representatives? ir. BuTiwr, (dem.) of Ya., rose to reply. Mr. Mason, (dem.) of Va., asked him to yield the floor for an executive session. Mr. BuTixr—I would, but I think this Army bill is more important than Gadsden’s treaty. Ir. SmustDs said this bill could be got through with to day; and he woukt ask the division of the House on going into executive session. After some further conversation Mr. Mason moved, ata quarter before two, to postpone the bill for the executive session. Lost—Ayes 16, noes 18.

He thought there was necessity for increasing the number of cadets. If there was no room for them in thearmy, they would in pri- vate pursuits, and in an emergency would furnish citizen soldiery a host of accomplished and educated officers. He thought the time was very rapidly coming when the army would require a increase of officers. Mr. Cass repeated his objections made yosterday to the There was no necessity for increasing the number of cadets. Mr. Surmips replied warmly. He said that there were yy reasons, which it would be improper for him to state in open session now, but which, if stated, would satisfy the country that the army, rank and file, and the navy, should be largely .. Both arms of defence should be largely increased, not for the purpose of going to war, but to keep out of it—to preserve a neutrality which other nations will respect. The whole world, ex- cept the United States, was now, or would bein a {ew months, in armed conflict. Such sight was never pre- sented yet. How could the United States keep out of that vortex of warfare, unless it had an armed suf. ficient to maintain its own noutrality and preserve its peaceful relations with other governments? The time of preparation for these events was now upon us; yet this session, as all others, was to be wasted in discussing ab- stractions, and let practical business be defeated. When he came forward with the measure necessary for the de- fence of the country, he had to come as a beggar, asking to be heard, and he was frequently sent away unheard. He had got through with one bill, which, if passed by the House, would give new life to the army. This one put the rank and file on better pay and better footing. He had other bills yet to bring forward, and he hoped that they would be considered. ir. Dope, (dem.) of Iowa, opposed the increase of the number of cadets and their appointment by Senators. ‘He defended the cadet appointments made by the Presi- dent. He anda member of the other House waited on the President to recommend youths of their State as ca dets, and the President told them that Ohio and Iowa had already had appointments from their representa- tives in Congress; that the law, in placing under his ap- pointment ten cadetships, seemed to have in view that he would select them from those classes who, from their duties and their services, have no political power or in- fluence, and have no local habitation, and these were the officers of the army and the navy. He justified and eulo- gised the President for turning aside from the appeals of liticians and other selfish considerations, an Tasiow- ing the en cadet appointments in his gift upon thesons of the Worths, McNeils, and other veterans, whose whole lives had been given to their country. Mr. Peace explained that ho did not complain of the course pursued by the President, but still he was un- willing to increase the number to be bestowed in that way. Mr.Pratr moved to amend by striking out only the words “to be appointed by the Senators representing the seve- ral States.”” This would increase the number of cadets, but leave the appointment of the additional number to the President, or as Congress might direct hereafter. Lost.—Yeas—Evans, Brodhead, Cass, Dodge, of Iowa; Pratt, Sumner. Noes 32. The question was then taken on Mr. Petit’s motion, to strike out the whole of the ninth section. Lost—Yeas 13; nays 25.

Mr. Mason moved to go into executive session. HOMESTEAD BILL. Mr. Watkgr, (dem.) of Wis., said the Homestead bill had been made nage order since pened He de- pep iia ted what its friends proposed to do for the rest of this week. * ‘Mr. Gwin said that the Pacific Railroad bill was now fixed for poe agg oy and he intended to get it up. He did not mean that it should be overslaughed by the Homestead bill, or busincss pending in executive session. Mr. Warkgr said that until he could hear something from the friends of the Homestead bill as to what was to bedone with it, he would oppose going into executive session. Mr. Mason’s motion was agreed to, and in twenty minutes afterwards the doors were thrown open, and the Senate adjourned. House of Representatives. Wasuineron, March 22, 1854. RELIEF OF OWNERS OF LAND TAKEN FOR RAILROAD PURPOSES. The House resumed the consideration of the bill for the relief of settlers on lands reserved for railroad pur- poses, permitting them to pre-empt other lands at the minimum price. ‘The bill was passed. AMENDING TAB RULES. Mr. Muu1sox, (dem.) of Va., from the Committee on Rules, reported an amendment to the rules, to the effect when any measure is in-Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, and five minutes debate is allowed, any member entitled to the floor may call for a vote on the pending proposition ; and if the majority shall second the call, the vote shall be taken without further debate. He explained that the object was to put an end to long debates, in five minute speeches, whenever the majority shall so decide. Explanations were made as to the effect of the pro- posed rule, when it was laid on the table. . ‘THE NEBRASKA BILL. Mr. Lyon, (dem.) of N. Y., asked to have his name re- corded in the affirmative on committing the Nebraska Kansas bill to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, yesterday, it having been omitted from the record, It was so directed. INDIAN APPROPRIATION RIT The House went into Committee of the Whole. The first bill on the calendar was the Indian Appropriation vill. Mr. Bococx, (dem.) of Va., made an ineffectual effort to have the bill authorizing the construction of six steam | frigates, considered. | he Indian bill was taken up. Mr. Hovstoy, (dem.) of Als., said this bill was in strict conformity wiih treaty stipulations between the United States and the Indian tribes. The appropriations are necessary, and he indulged the hope that the committee will act’on the bill without unnecessary delay. There s no contest about any of the items, and the appropria- 8 are obliged to be made. FEMr. Orr, (dem.) of §. C., said he intended to propose various amendments, the aggregate of which would amount to $350,000. ‘First, an appropriation of $68,000, to enable the War Department to negotiate treaties with the Indians of Oregon, and $45,000 for treaties with the Indians of Washington Territory. In those Territories as wellag in Utah, the Indian title to not one foot of In Oregon and Washington there are between 60,000.and 7 Indians, who been driven from valley to valley and plain to plain, until they are on the mountain top. Last year nineteen treaties were negotiated with the Indians of Oregon, but as yet no action has been taken on them by the Senate. These Indians have yielded their Territory on solemn promises that their “Great Father,” and Congress will make compensation for their lands. Years have rolled by since these promises were made. He had it from reli- able authority that the outhreak of the Rogue River In dians last summer, might have been avoided, if treaty provisions had been entered into with those people.

Affairs at the State Capital. TOLLS ON RAILROADS—TRINITY CHURCH PROPERTY— THE CENTRAL RAILROAD—THE LIQUOR BILL— GREAT FXCITEMENT—THE VOTE, ETC. SPECIAL CORKESPONDENCE OF THE NEW YORK HERALD. Aupany, March 22, 1864. During the legislative session of 1850, when the atrong- est efforts were making to enact what is known as the nine million loan, and in order to induce the railroad in- fluence to assist in carrying the election against the resigned Senators, by a mere legislative trick of George Geddes, then a Senator, and now an employee under a heavy salary toengineer the water out of the Cayuga marshes, the bill was repealed imposing tolls on the rail roada running between the Hudson river and Lake Erie. The sum of two hundred thousand dollars annually was added to the canal fund from those railroad tolls, and not a single remonstrance was heard from any road against the imposition of such tolls. Various attempts have since been made to restore them, but withou! suc- cess, though it has been universally acknowledged that in- justice was done the canal revenues by liberating theroads rom paying moa tolls. This morning the subject was renewed in the Senate by Mr. Spencer, who off resolution direc! the Canal Committee to in eer the expediency a1 ropriety of imposing canal tolls on rail freight com! competition with canal trans- portation, until the Erie shall me enlarged, and the other canals finished and improved as contemplated. Mr. Dickinson opposed the resolution with his usual earnestness and aoe | for a considerable space of tim Mr. Brooks and Mr. William Clark supported the refé ence, and, after quite a struggle, it was adopted by a vote of 26 to 6. The committee having the matter in charge is composed of Mr. Field, from Orleans county; Mr. Cros- by, from Albany, whigs, and Mr. Barr, hard shell. As the committee is constituted, it is more than likely there will be two reports. The protracted litigation relative to Trinity Church property is likely soon to be brought to a close. This morning Mr. Wm. Clark, chairman of the Judiciary Com- mittee, introduced a bill, which, if interested high feed lawyers do not defeat, will pass the Legislature. We give a copy of the bill, so that the mammoth corporation of Trinity may know at the earliest moment the condition of things. It is proper to remind the managers that it is quite » different matter to stave-off action in the Legisla- ture from what it is in the courts. This is a copy:— An Act to authorise a more ¥ trial of a certain suit pead- ing agaiust the people of this State and others.

Among other matters which were taken ne rrevene fo She time for voting on the Temperance bill, the final vote was taken upen the bill allowing the Sacketts Harbor and Saratoga Railroad Company to change the route of road. There han been more corruption and villany practised by the lobby upon this bill on both sides than any other for years. It has been a contest between land speculators on the original route and furnace proprietors and land sharks on the new route. The latter ‘Snally succeeded, and the bill passed. ‘ Upon the arrival of thé hour of twelve o'clock, the Speaker arrested the discussion upon a bill for spend- ing some twenty-five thousand dollars for repair- ing the old State House, and announced the eee order, being the final vote on the Temperance Several minutes were occupied in Lae J order, Mr. Mallory rose and made inquiry whether it was in order, at this stage of the matter, to move a recom. mittal of the bill, for the Purpose of introducing amend- ments? The Speaker decided adversely. Mr. Baker rose and attem a discussion, and he was voted out of order. veral others desired to make motions, suggestions, or something else, but none were allowed. dier General Sherman, the able clerk, then began toread the bill. A member oegeyr by stating that Mr. legs, a member from Tiago, jad beon brought from his sick bed for the purpose of voting on the bill; but he ‘was so ill that it was feared he could not remain until the bill was read through, and wished to know whether Mr. L. could not be permitted to vote now. This was de- clared to be impossible. The Clerk read ona few mo- ments when he was interrupted by Mr. Sterling, who wanted to know if a call of the House could then be made. The Speaker informed him that he would decide ina moment. The Clerk continued reading. Mr. Losier inquired whether members who might come in after the dill shall have been read through, would not compel the reading over again. The Speaker decided it as being im rT. e Speaker, in answer to the Inquiry made Sterling, now decided that a call of the House. could not be made, as the previous question had been ordered. Mr. Richards rose to a point of protection, and sent up in writing, thus:— “Are we compelled to remain in this House while a person ie in the House afflicted with a contagious disease?” | [Alluding to Mr. Legg, who is un- fortunately afflicted with the ‘‘ mumps,” or, as Webster defines it, ‘a peculiar and specific unsuppurative in- flammation of the parotid glands.’"} ‘The Speaker deci- ded the point not well taken, and the Clerk proceeded, but had only read a section or two, when Mr. Ward rose and requested the Clerk to read faster, as the audience were becoming impatient for the vote. ‘The Speaker di- rected the Clerk to proceed with respectful diligence. Finally, the bill being read through its forty-three sec- tions, the Speaker rose and directed the officers of the House to bring before the bar any person who should be discovered applauding upon the declaration of the vote. Silence reigned. The Clerk then proceeded to call the list of members, and when the name of Mr. Baker was called, being the fourth on the list, he rose and moved to be excused from voting, and proceeded in givin his reasons. He was not permitted to proceed far when he was stopped by Mr. Sessions, who stated that he had no right {o discuss the merits of the bill. Mr. Baker con- tinued arguing upon its unconatitutionality, when in a moment or {wo he was interrupted by Mr. Loxier, who demanded that he should confine himself to the point of | order. Mr. Baker was finally compelled to resign the | floor. The next name called was thut of Mr. Backus, when Mr. R. J. Baldwin rose and remarked that Mr. Backus was sick, and had sent a note, which he desired to read. Declared out of order. Mr. Crocheron wanted to be excused, but was not gratified. The Clerk then proceeded through the roll, and, upon counting, it ap- peared that the bill received in its favor 78 votes, 13 more than a majority, and 42 against it, as follows:— iley, R. J.

[Correspondence of the Post.] Wasmnatox, March —, 1854. The Black Warrior Dificulty=-The Gadsden Treaty. The British legation here appears to be ia much dis. tress concerning the Black Warrior difficulty; and from. the incessant activity of the English minister, and his constant. presence in all diplomatic conferences. on the subject, between our Secretary and the Spanish .Charge, one would be at a loss to determine whether it were a question with England or with Spain that was to be ad {ies Thus far, it is believed, the French minister has eld himself aloof from all Gpen interference in the affair; but itis expected he will join in, should things assume an aspect sufficiently threatening. The quasi threat of suspending our neutrality laws with regard to Spain has brought to our city influential delegations of Cuban exiles, who are much elated at the possibility of such suspension. They say that they have men and rms enough, and money enough, to set all things straight in Cuba in less than a month, if we will only remove the neutrality laws; in fact, this late misunderstanding has so far warmed up these ‘exiles, that they may possibly undertake to anticipate the suspension they so much de- sire, should there prove any very extraordinary delay in obtaining a favorable reply from the government of Spain. If the representations of those Cuban gentlemen are correct, they have in this country a much more ex- tensive organization, and can command much larger means, than we have been in the habitof supposing. Santa Anna, from all accounts, seems to be in soma hurry about the ratification here of laden treaty. Affairs with him’ appear to be pressing, and he is very anxious to get sion of the first instalment of the money which Mexico'is to receive under the treaty. In fact, well-informed parties here say, that unless the rati- fication is completed without much more delay, there will be no government in Mexico to perform its part of the stipulations, The Senate, it is joc iy supposed, when it gets ready, willapprove of the main features of the treaty; but will insert some amendments, which, it is said, Santa Anna has assented to in anticipation, by instructions to the Mexican minister here, to agree to any amendment which the Senate may introduce. To what extent this last assertion is true, no one, of course, has the means of ascertaining: but it is generally be- lieved Spat Gen, Alcomte has had a sufficiently in ne him, and will feel no other embar: instructions, except their leaving ‘too moe oie ion.

Our reporter went to the Park at the appointed time, | but was at least half an hour too soon. He found a plat- | form erected in front of the City Hall, but there was no audience or speakers. A few individuals were collected on the Hall steps, one of whom carried in his hand a lan- tern, which he said he intended to light as soon as the meeting was organized. He was, however, relieved of that trouble, as those who got up the meeting thought it better, in the absence of an audience, to adjourn it toa more favorable opportunity. There were not more than fifty or sixty persons there altogether, and these ap. | peared te be divided in their views as to the objects for | which the meeting had been called. Owing to these cir cumstances, and the unfavorable state of the weather, | the meeting was a failure. | ‘After a brief consultation among a portion of those | present who took ssion of the stand, Daniel Meehan, | of the Second ward, was appointed President.

This was the so called City Reform party, whose real object is to procure an amendment to | the charter making the office of Chief of Police elective. | Mter nominating the President, the meeting adjourned till) Wednesday next, and the few who still remained around the platform dispersed. By whom the platform was got up, or the meeting called, no one appears to know farther than announced in the notice.

It was also shown to the court by a numbor | of the most respectable eitizens of her naighborhood, | that she was generally suspected of having had some- | thing to do with the tacent escape of slaves from that vieinity. Upon thia evidence Judge Grey required Miss Webster to give boad, with guroties, in the som of | $10,000, that she would be of good behavior, or that she would give bond in the same amoant that she would leave the State and never return to it.
