Bissell, like- wise @ statesman and soldier, He said the committee had stricken from the bill the section providing for the appointment of sixty-two additional cadets, their object being to constitute the army a kindof West Point aca- demwy, so thats young man of courage and enterprise, who has no political patronage to send him to that institution, may, nevertheless, by his own good sword, seek his fortune in the rank and file, and by merit attain to the highest post and distinction. So far sa “he was informed, of five hundred and ninety-two officers, but nineteen have come from the ranks of the army, and these were ander special provisions passed during the war of 1812, and the Mexican wat. He further explained that the bill increased the pay of privates from 67 to $10 @ month, and increased the per centage of all officers up to & Major General—a bounty of $2 to be given for re- culivtment, We want, he said, 5,000 privates to fll up our army, small as it is—2,000 aré wanted in New Mexico alons, Since November last, the recruiting business had become worse, and recruiting offiees might as well be closed Mr. Gaow, said he was opposed to increasing the pay of the higher grades of the service, for $2008 month is enough. The private by this bill was to get an increase of but $8, while a Major-General was to have $65. Mr. Tarvom, of Obio, asked him what he would consi- era fair proposition. Mz. Grow said he weuld vote to increase no man’s pay who is receiving over $40 8 month, but would vote to in- crease the pay of those who get less than that sum. Without concluding the subject, the committee rose, and the Rouse adjourned. ‘The Liquor Law in Philadelphia.

We have receiv ed fate aud important intelligence from Venesuela, by the arrival of the Venus at this port, from Curacoa. Another revolutionary movement had taken place at Villa de Coro, in favor of General Paez, which would, it was thought, be successful, as many of Monaga's friends had deserted him, and joined the Paez party. A great quantity of arms snd aman- uition had been sent over from Curacoa. Our correspondent at Ouracos writes as follows:— Curaooa, July 12, 1864, The news from Venezuela is, that the province of Cora has declared for the revolutionary party. Gen. Juan Garseo has command of 1,000 men of the lat- ter party. The government troops number only 200 men. We may soon expect favorable news for the exiled patriot, General Paez. News from Turks Island. The schooner Oleveira, Captain Hall, from Tarks Island, arrived yesterday. She sailed onthe 12th inst. There ia no news of importance.

The firemen were quidk- Ty on the spot, and it occupied some little time before they could get at the locality of the fire, in consequence of the dense smoke and ben leg art stiffiing o! a ter, ori from the oily materials, which prevented the ry going into the foft on fire. As soon as the locality of the flames were discovered the firemen poured in a powerful stream, and in about an hour it ‘was subdued and shortly after thoroughly extinquished. At one time it was anticipated a fire would be the result, from the fact of so much inflammable material being in the building.
