Wasuincrox, Aug. 5, 1854. At twolve o'clock the Senate met to-day. A large nuraber of enrolled bills were sigued by the Prosident of tho Senate—among thom'the Army and Post Office Appropriation bills. The Senate bill allowing Wisconsin to select certain aeloct palin lands in aid of her University, was received, with an amendment. Mr. Dona earnestly appealed tc the Senate to concur in tho amendment. f: ‘Mr. Honma said he would, cheerfally, if the resolution allowed it; but it could not be dono without violating ‘the exprees order of both houses. The Casmkancubmitted the question to the Senate, and it refused to act on the bill. After somo time spent without transacting any busl- ness, Mr. Mortow offered @ resolution to continue the em- ployment of pages sixty days after the adjournment of Copgrese. ‘Tho Casmxax ruled it to be out of order. Mr. Monzos appealed. Mr. Weiter urgued that the rule only probibited le- gislative business requiring ths jcint action of the two Houses. Mr. Baran said no legislative business could be deno. Mr. Srvast moved to lay the appeal on the table. ‘Mr. Cuasr reised the poin: that ua the joint resolution prohibited any motion except to asjourn, the whole pro ceeding was out of order. ‘The Curr se decided, aud the matter dropped. At one o'clock # message was received irom the Presi- dont. Mr. Wank: session. Mr. Jorm, of Tenn.—Is not that « motion, and can it be entertained * ‘The Onarm ruled that it could, and the motion was ‘then agreed to.

TRE RIVER AND HARHOR DILL. ‘Mr. Pamiw’s called attention te the seventh section 0° the constitution which cays that every bill which shal; Dave pessed the House and Serete, shall, beforo it be comes a law, be presonted to the President, If he ap prove it he sball sign it, but if not be eball return it, with his objections, to that house in which it shall havo originated, who shall enter the objectious et lerge on their journal, and proceed to reconsider it, &. Tho Riverand Harbor bill heving beon thus rcturned, he wished to know whether it would be propor to enter tho motion to reconsider om the journal, and have the mo- tion postponed until the next session of Congress, as the House was now without a quorum. Tho Srmixsa replied—Under the resolutiin adopted yemterday, restr! sting legislation, the motion was notin order, but as he believed @ quorum was in atteadenco youterday, whor the voto message wut received, both it gud the bill would be spread at targe on the journal. Mr. Pumturrs euggestoé, the resolution to which the Speaker alluded, that no vote shall be tsten on any proposition except to adjourn. Ho did not design taking a vote. Several gentlemen indulged ia coaversation as to wheth- or thero was.o quorum or not in attendance when the voto messago was received. It we: not disputed, how: ever, that there was no querum, when # question was taken by yeas and neye a few minute. afterwards. ‘The Sraaxcr said ho wasnot in tho chair wheo the message was roceired, but as it wae received without ob- jection, it was to be presumed there cas a quorum pro eontat the time, and, therefore, it would be sproad on she Journal. Mr. Caursrit presumed the mossage would bo road next session, when it oould be agted upon. Mr. Ricesnveox—I only desire tw say [ difer from tho President relative to this subject. 1 se0 no ron0a why improvements should be made on tho sex ovast, aad bo dented to tho interior of the conn'ry. Denying the Lat. ter, while purewing the former, the governm:nt beco nos portial, onerous and unjust, and on this point io sopa- rate. Mr. Cascrmuis. cove to give his views, coigeiding with Mr. Paart (interrupting)—I eame here for business, ‘end don’t want to hear speeches. , moved that the Senate go into exeeultro ‘Mr. Camram1 (spiritedly)—Thee, the gentleman can leave, and I cail him to order. ‘The SreakEn—Gentlemen will con. to order, and take | their seats. Mr. Ricuarpson—I don’t wish to viclate any rule. (Cries of “ Order. ””) The SRakxe—There is vo preposition b vfere the body, and it is surprising that 60 few gentlemen p.eent cannot preserve order. He barged with hi» hammer, eahing out firmly “ Order, order. ’” Mx. Camvszit, (resuming)—In the valley of the Mis- sissippi is more than one half the popalstion of this great nation, andas a matter of course they beer one half the burdens for the benefit of the country at large. | In fifteen years but one bill bas been passed for im. provements in that immense valley. The representatives of the people without distinction of party, come here and urge their claims, but the man who claims to be the advocate of popular sovereignty vetoed the River and Harbor bill. Mg. Cunemax—I don’t believe there is any necessity for any more public speaking. Mr Hisearv—I did not come here to discuss nay ques- tion, but at a fatare time will be prepared to justify the veto, which fs sustained by repuolicao equality, and is alike just to tho whole country and the constitution. I was sorry to hear the remarks of the geutloman from Ohio, (Mr. Cainpbo!l,) because they ore calculated to create sectional feeling in the West. Mr. Camrneit rose to reply. Mr. Himnarp—The gentloman need not explain; I don’t thirk he meant it. Mr. PRatt—I inalat on order. Mr. Campsait moved thet the House agjourn. Noga tived. He was about addressing the Hous, when Mr. Pratt objected to further speaking. “The Srrauxe—then I must enforce the rules. MARCY’S KOSZTA LETTER. Mr. Sante, of Ala., supposing there wae nothing parti- cular before the House, said, early in the session he inti- mated that on somo proper occasion he intended to re- view Secretary Marcy’s Koszta Letter. Various ciroum- stances had prevented him from making the epecch; #0 he asked the House to let him print it, aseuring them there was nothing personal in it. Agreed to. AN ABTONISHED CONGRESSMAN. Mr. Barxepatz—We have heard of various fusions be- tween those who claimed to be democrats and whig. Wo havo hoard of fusions between free soilers aad abolition- iste. Ihave not been astonished at this, but I am eome- what astonished at the fusion we witnessed this morning, between the ge: tlemen from Obio and Illinois. The latter achieved a victory on tbe Nobraska bill, bat wenow find him crouching at the feet of the gentleman from Ohio. However worthy my friend from Ohio may be, I shovld dislike to return to my democratic constituents, and tell them I had coaleseed with him. I do not know bow it fs with my friend from ILdnois, it may boall right with him, but would not with me. ‘THE VETERANS OF THE WAR OF 1612. Mr. Staave—I ak permission to put on record a speech ona subject a little nearest to my heart than any discussed this session. (Cries of “Hear him.’”’) I want to publish a fow remarks in favor of the veteran soldiers who fought and bled and gained our victories in the war of 1812. (‘‘Agreed, agreed,’’ uttered amidst laughter.) REPLY TO THE ASTONISHED CONGREESMAN, Mr. Ricnanpsox—I bave but a single romark to make Jo the gentleman from Mississippi. Mo congratulates me that Lam found in company with strange bedfellows. I have merely Juid down the position on which I stand. I stand thero, not cating who stands with or against me. I fvrm my own opinions, and act on them without eon- sulting the opinions of anybody else. Iropeat now, I don’t caro what the President moy thiak on this or any other subjeot. The policy in this govorament which allows «ppropristions on. the seaboard and denics them in the interior, is wrong and unjust, acd I condemn it. Idon’t eare who differs with me. When you cume to the conelusion to strike down all your sppropriatious for Now York, Philadelphia, Baltimoro, New Orleans—overy- where on tho Atlantic; when you strike down your lighthorses and custom houses, lll go with you; but when your appropriations should only be for the sea- board, and not for the interior, {t is urjust and wrong. I will walk the road I have marked out; I don’t care if I tread it slone; I don’t caro who is against me. Mr. Barxspatt—What works docs the gentleman re- gard as national, and what as local? Which would he approve? Mr. Ricwannsor—l’ll tell the gentleman my epinion. General Jackson is as good a man to strike handa with as any body else. Mr. Frongnce—Pretty good authority up our way. Mr. j—When I go home and tell my people I stand whore General Jackson stood, they'll bo satisfied: ‘Tho great Mississippi river runs through and touches ten States. If that is not nationa', what is national? Mr. Camrszit wanted to know when property which poseos down that*river bocomes national? Is it only so when it touchos salt water? Mr. Bargapare wanted to respond, but Mr. Poryraz objectod to further speating. This was not the busiaces for which they had assembled. Ho moved an adjournment. Ayes 10, nays 11. A message wai received from the President, that he hed approved of certain bills. Adjourned till Mon¢ay morning, at 7 3 o'clock.
