REWARD TO THE SAVIOURS OF STRALN’S PARTY Mr. Cayton, (whig) of Del., from the Committee on Foreign Relations, reported back the joint resolution re questing the President to have medals prepared and pre- sented to the officers of the British ship of war Virago, and $100 to exch man of tie boat's crew of that vessel who rescued Licut.

Mr. Hamuin, (dem.) of Me., from the Committee on | Commerce, reported adversely on the memorials praying fora change of the port of entry in Texas from Peint Joseph to Brownsville, and in favor of constructing a Marine Hospital at Pens«cola. ‘THE NEBRASKA DILL ‘Was taken up Mr. Bayarp, (dem.) of Del., moved that when the Senate adjourn it will be till Monday. Agreed to, Mr. Bett, (whig) of Tenu., resumed his speoch, He said that yesterday he had vainly endeavored to ascertain from the Senatory what overshadowing principle there was in this bill which induced Southern Senators to declare they would not hazard the bill by attaching to it the Clayton amendment, and his remarks bad called forth a harsh, offensive, an Senator from Georg ficient ground in this Senator was disposed tail of events tran cuses of Senators personal assault up He thought that ublic action to lash him by the @ was suf him, If the «1 the charges made against him in the oth Tennessee member, Mr. Churchwell, of the House, had a long consultation with him, -an professed throughout the whole time the greatest confidence in bis (Beli’s) judg ment, and had begged him not to make up his opinion on it. He (Bell) assured him he would not until the latest. moment. In consultation With whig colleagues of the House, he had assured them that Mr. Churchwell would vote with them — He did not know until the evening before Mr. Church li’s speech, thet he was to vote for the bill. In the mvantime the most friendly pers and business relations had ex- isted between himself and Mr. Churchwell. ‘This was the agent selected to make this onslaught on him in the House. The Senator from Georgia must excuse him for baving some feeling when he heard the Yenator en- dorse the charge made in the House. It was said there Was no cause for the feeling he had shown yesterday, but he could not but regret to hear the Sexator from North Carolina rise and corroborate the statement that all the Southern whig Senators were in favor of the bill No living man could say that he had, by word, letter, or even looks,given any ¢wthority to any maa to say he was in favor of the repeal of the Missouri compromise. He then repeated several conversations he had with his col- Jeagues in the House, and several Senators, whig aud Gemocrat, in which’ throughout he had declared he had not come to any detinite conclusion on the bill. He ver attended but at two meetings, at neither of was anything said authorizing anybody to an- ce that all Southern whigs were in favor of the He had voted to put in the provision repealing the M souri compromise, but that vote only put the bill in clearer and more unexceptionable language than was al- ready in it. He had maay reasons to be unwilling to take this measure. Amongst others, was the considera- tion for the national democracy of the North, who were willing to do justice ov this subject. He knew it would endanger their success »t home, and expose them to the rils of agitation. He knew the agony which was felt those who followed in the footsteps of the author of the bill, and he sympathized with them deeply. He knew who it would prove destruction to—national whi of the North. He had been charged with having led his colleagues of the House into opposition to the bill Long before the action on it in the Senate, his colleagues in the House had expressed in strong terms th opposition to the bill.” He was rather influenced by them than they by him. Hedid not think the Senator from Georgia was justified in alluding to the transactions in the meeting. He never thought that any one seriously intended to carry out the resolutions respecting the course of the National Intelligencer. “He denied that he was present at any mieting at which the Senator from North Carolina was authorized to state that the Southern whig Senators were united in the support of the bill. When the Senator from North Carolina yesterday stated that such was the case, he had branded it, as he did now, as untrue. Such a thing may have been done at some meeting after he had left it, but never in his presence. When the Senator frhm North Carolina got up yesterday, and, following the Senator from Georgia, repeated the statement, it ap- red to him very mach hike a conspiracy against him, 0 be commenced in the House, and followed up in the Senate. It had that appearance, to his mind, now. The Senator from Delaware commenced, yesterday, an ex- lanation, by saying that all whig Senators were united in favor of the repeal of the Missouri compromire, and there he was stopped. He wished to know if that Sena- tor meant to say that he (Mr. Bell) was at any time com- mitted to a repeal of tne Missouri compromise ? Mr. Cayton rose to reply, but Mr. Bell refused to yield the floor and continued. Mr. Brri—I pronounce that statement, made by any person whomsoceyer, to be false—to be false, Mr. CLarrox—I did net say so. Mr. Pxti—Then I beg your pardon. The Senator from Georgia looks sterrly at me. Ido not know what that look means, but let it nean what it may, [say that any intimation, by word, look or otherwise, to the wifect that I favored the repeal of the Missouri Compromise is false. No living man can say I ever was for that repeal. Since that meeting no one had ever mentioned to him the subject of the resolution respecting the National Intelligencer. i Mr. CLarton said he knew of no action on it. Mr. Brrt—That confirms my opinion of it, that no one perlously entertained the idea of carrying it into eifect; Fs the fact has been treasured up and filtere! till it f assed through the conduit, in the other house, to the ublic. The Senator from Georgia now thought proper p repeat it to the Senate. He said the proposition, t a bandful of Southern whigs in one House of Bhould undertake to remonstrate with the M telligencer, a paper heretofore considered the whole whig party, North and South, was rid and absurd, and he could not believe any Senator thought of it seriously. He deprecated the idea of anyboty of ‘men attempting to overrule and muzzle a free press. He ave his cordial approval to the course of the Va‘ional Infelligencer. Its edifor, though an Englishman, had never given cause for any one to suppose he was not thoroughly an American {n all his feelings and sympa. thies. He boped the Senator from Georgia did not in tend te be personal or offensive. But his manner was | apparently very offensive, and manner may, at times, be as much out of order and offensive as | | any language. The Senator charged him with bping an ally of the abolitionists. If the tor meant that, in voting against the he was an ally of abolitionist, it was ad caplandum arguments, and only worthy of the shallowest and lowest demagogne. If the Senator meant that he was an ally of abolitionists in feelings, principle, or sympathy, thea he meant that which he knew to be utterly fale. yoting against the bill he was giving aid and comfort to the enemies of the South, then he had to say that the Senator bad himself given a whole magazine to his ene- mies, where he had furnished one ration. Even if all stated was true that he was at one time for the bill, he had 4 right to change after hearing debate. Discussion was designed to favor opinion. He boped the bill would have the effect of quieting all egitationand alarm. He looked upon the whole bill asa mere abstraction. Mr. Toomns, (Whig) of Ga., saidjthe Senator from Ten- nersee had addressed the Senate for three hours in vin ication of own course on this bill. The Senator reemed anxious to know why the facts occurring in the caucus bad been published to the country. The reason was apparent. He had stated lacts which were notorious, and the Senator had offered no evidence tu controvest them. He intended to confine himself to such of the Senators as would, That caucus was got up for a public purpose, ‘and for no other, Its object was to make known the by every Southern whi tor from Delaware had cause to believe that the course of the whig Southern Senators was misunderstood by the country, and particolarly in his State, where the Nation- al Ini was widely circulated.

He had been instructed by the present whig abolition Legislature of Connecticut to vote against the bill.

Mr. Orns, (dem.) of Ohio, introduced a bill as a substi- tute for the one heretofore reported relative to the Post Office, amongst other things abolishing the franking pri- | vilege. ‘ The House went into Committee of the Whole. THR-PACIFIC RAILROAD, ‘Mr. Puetps, (dem.) of Mo., with the consent of Mr. McDougal, who is entitled to the floor on the Pacific Rail road bill, moved that the subject be postponed till to- morrow. Mr. McDoveat, (dem.) of Cal., remarked that he con- insults given by | ented to the motion with the express understanding thing. Mr. Rut said he gave no hypothetical insults. | that the Pacific Railroad bill shall be taken up to-morrow. Mr. Watsn, (dem.) of N. Y., objected. Mr. PuEtys wanted to dispose of the Deficiency bill. It could be done in two hours. During the debate on the Senate’s amendment increas- ing the salary of the special mail agent of the Post Office Department in California to $5,000, Mr. Wasi said he was opposed to the bill from firat to last. The adding of so many amendments by the Senate, was a falsification of the bill, and ought to be rebuked promptly by the House. If the duties of the Postmas- ler of Sun Francisco are so arduous, why is he skulking around Washington instead of attending to his business. Mr. Laiiam, (dem.) of Cal., said Mr. Henly was here by direction of the Postmaster General, to regulate the posial system in California. Mr. Waist —He has obeyed his instructions to the fullest exient, for his own individual benefit. I know of persons occupying the t ost Office agencies who are not capable of earniog one dollar anda quarter a day by manual labor, being too- intellectually stupid and infer- nally lazy. Mr. SmimH recapitulated the high rates of living in Cali- ‘aying drinks are twenty-five cents a glass, and short measure at thi He wanted to know what Mr. Walsh thought of it. | _ Mr. Houston, (dem.) of Ala., said if drinks coat $2 a | day, it was time to stop them. Dir SMITH was surprised that the Chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means should base his objection | on such grounds. | After further debate, the amendment was nun-con curred in The committee next considered the Senate amendment, proposing to repeal so much of the law regulating the | printing of Congress, a3 directs when any documeat | rhall be ordered to be printed by both houses, that the cotire printing of such document shall be done by the printer of the house which first ordered the same, and ‘o equally divide between the two printers the printing cf the executive departments and bureaus, Dir. PuEtrs, (dem.) of Mo., said the Committee of Ways and Means recommended concurrence in the first branch only of the amendment, as a controversy had risen between the printers relative to an important docu: ment. As to the executive department printing, it would be difficult to divide it. dir. Bay1y, (dem.) of Va., adverted to the controversy | between the House and Senate printers, the latter claiming, under'the law, the printing of the agricultural part of the Patent Office Report. The Circuit Court and the Committee on Printing have each decided it has no jurisdiction in the premises, and the matter is now be- fore the Supreme Court. He protested against the Sa- perintendent of Printing having the control of the large printing jobs. Unless the House wish to open the flood | gates of corruption, they had better pay a Little more ‘or printing than haye such a state of things. It was right the executive printing should be divided in ac- coraance with equity. The heads of departments should not have power to crush one printer and build up oF hold the rod of terror over newspapers. Mr, Pratt, (dem.) of Conn., could see no more pro- priety for the amendment in a deficiency bill than a proviso to raise a whole regiment of dragoons, and yer the good sense of the committee would lead them to reject it. Mr. Havex, (whig) of N. ¥.. was satisded with the lav, it being’a good one, and passed through mueh tribu- lation. It is money which controls such legislation as this. As the Senate has seen fit to get up a crusade for additional pay, let them provide « hospital for their own ollspring. There was occasion to put more money in the hands of some person appointed tor that purpose. Mr. Y was amazed at the argument of the gentle- man. though he was friendly to the exeoatlrs, he would not place in the hands of the President, or his ap- pointee, power by his own say so, to build up the printer of one house at the expense of the other. Let the print- ing of executive departments be divided, do ite own printing. His friend from New York thoaght the next House would be whig, and wanted to secure pa- tronage for some friend in advance. He was reci without his host, but thought such was his drift. Mr. Orn, (dem.) of 8.C., agreed with Mr. Pratt, and contended that if the amendment should prevail, it would involve the aaditional expense of $35,000, It was to pre- vent squabbling which did not annoy the House; then why change the law? It was time for the House to as- sert its independence, and its hostility to. this aystem of incorporating everything in a deficieney bill. | Mr. Stanzon, (dees) of Ky. seit that diteulty had arisen from different interpretations of the law. A few weeks ago, the printer of the Senate made application for a writ of mandamus to compel the Superintendent of Printing to give him the printing orgered by the House, and which he claimed under provision of law. The court granted a temporary injunction, but the printing is now ticd up, neither printer executing it, Mr. Barry, (dem ) of Miss,, said the amendment was introduced because there isa squabbie between the printers. If a lawsuit is pending it would be improper for Congréés to intertere with a view of settling it, Mr. Bayty—It canvot affect this question. Mr. Barry—If the proprietors cau afford to spend their profits in litigation, what business is it of Congress, 80 the duties of printing are well discharged. Mr. Bayty—The agricultural part of the patent office is now hanging in the Supreme Court, and no telling when the question will be decided, This amendment is to avoid a repetition of the inconvenience. I don't see how litigation can be stopped except by making the printers so poor they cannot go tolaw. Mr. Onn eaid if the law was defective the Committee on Printing should report a modification, without trying to change it in this sidewny. Mr. Staxtox, of Ky., replied they had no right to originate anything, and could only report on matters referred to them. Mr. OxR—This has given you a chance. Mr. Staxtow said they had no such authority, and | then offered a proviso that the printers shall only be | compensated for work actualiy done, so as to prevent then from charging for type vetting of documents when they merely change the heading te suit both Houses. Adopted. The entire Senate’s amendment was then rejected. Mr. Knox, (dem.) of Ill, said they had been commeno- | ing at the wrong end of legislation. The first item was | to pay an additional salary te the Secretary of State, and under every head was o provision for some hij officer. Splendid buildings were to be provided for the large cities, in order to exact customs; but not one dol- lar to improve great navigable waters. For this reason he should vote against the bill. Some minor amendments were acted on, the important ones being reserved for separate yeas and nays. Ad- journed. | | From Texas, Bavtimon®, May 25, 1854.

Commissioner Loring, Deputy Marshal Freeman ar- rested an alleged fugitive slave, named Anthony Burns, who was key in enitatn faring the night, -_ this morning, at an hour, brought before the Commus- sioner examination. ‘The court room was but par- tially filled, officers having been placed at the door to prevent too great a crowd. E.G. Parker appeared for complainant, and read the neces: documents from the Circuit Court of Virgivia, setting forth the claim of Col. Charles F Suttle, of Alex- andris, Virginia, to one Anthony Burne, a siave, who is described in the c papers as being twenty three ‘or tweaty- four years old, feet higt with scars upon the cheek and right hand, which tho said Sattle alleges o caped from his service on the 24th of March 1; illiam Brent, of Virginia, was called as a witness. He testified that he knew Anthony Burns; he was bora slave in the’ family of Mr. Suttle; had hired him in 846, '47, '48 and ’49 of Mr. Suttle; he was missing from Richmond on the 24th of March; had not seen him since. At this stage of the ig Mesars. Richard H. Dana and C. M. Ellis, who aj ‘a8 counsel for Burns, asked for a postponement of the vage to Saturday, which was granted by the Commissioner. It is said that during last arening Bu?ha had an inter- view with his former master, at which he cegsented to go back with him. Allthe proceedings were cyaducted Religious Meetings. PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY—SLAVERY MEMORIALS. Parcapecrnta, May 25, 1854. Inthe Presbyterian General Assembly, (N.'S.) this morning, the committee to whom were referred the-sla- very memorials, reported unanimously against taking any action in ihe matter. The repor. was adopted by acclamation and without debate. PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEMBLY, OLD SCHOOL. Burravo, May 25, 1854. In the Presbyterian (0. 8.)

House then voted on the selection of lace of meeting next year. New York, - New Orleans, Nashville, Columbus and Pittsburg were nominated. New Orleans had the largest number of votes, but no choice was made, and the matter was post- oned. Pome meeting in behalf of the American Board of Mis- sions, was attended in the First Church last evening. Addresses were delivered by Rev. Dr. Dodd, of Salonica; Rey. Dr. Allen, of Bombay, and Rev. Mr. Heacock, of Buffalo. The gudience was ‘very large. In the Assembly this morning, a vote of thanks was passed to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for free tickets furnished to the Commissioners. Arrangements were made for celebrating the Lord’s Supper next Sab- bath afternoon. A delegate from Rhode Island—the Rey. Joel Mann—addressed the Assembly, and the Mo- derator responded. The Rey. Albert Barnes, chairman of the Committee on Bills and Overtures, reported that eighteen memorials had been handed in upon the sub- ject of slavery; in regard to these the committee offered he following report:—‘‘Iu reference to these memorials and overtures the committee recommend that inasmuch as we believe that in the present aspect of Divine Provi- nce, the consideration of the subject in this General Assembly is undesirable and inexpedient, and inasmuch as the memorials do not ask for any modification or renewal of the testimony borne by previous semblies in regard to the system and practice of slavery as existing in this country, or for any expression of opinion as to the proper course to be yarsned by future assemblics—therefore this assembly take no action on the subject.” The report was received and adopted im- mediately, without debate, a few voices only voting in the negative. The moderator closed the announcement of the vote with the exclamation Laus Deo, Delegates from corresponding bodies were elected. W. §. Griffith submitted a preamble and resolutions setting forth the privations endured by ministers in consequence of the inadequate support afforded them, and urging a general increase of salaries. Adopted. : This afternoon the committees upon the synodical records reported. * While this business was going forward it was interrupted by a motion made by Rev. Mr. Saun- ders, of Western Reserve, Ohio, to suspend it, in order to allow him to present a resolution against the Nebraska bill. This gave rise to a very animated debate, which was continued until the hour of adjournment, when the assembly decided by a large majority not to suspend the business now before it.
