Mr. Favixyer, (dem ) of Va.. from the Commit on Military Adairs, asked leave to report a bill for ‘sup- ‘pression of Indian hostilities. Mr. Hamiros, (dem.) of Md , inquired whether it pro- a regular increase of the army. Facianee replied, this bill was in response to the -mossage of the President, transmitted yesterday, asking ‘for 3,000 volunteers, to serve for eighteen months, with @ view of suppressing the apprehended Indian hosiilities. Mr. Evcrrtow, (dem.) of Olio, said even if the bill provided for nothing more than calling out volunteers fhe must object. Mr, Ricuanpsow, (dem.) of Ill., appealed to Mr. Biger ‘ton to withdraw his objection. There was no doubt about the fact that large forces of Indians were now con r the frontier of North Kansas, with toe tilities.

Mr. Oriver asked if it is tobe a national road, should it nct be constructed as near as possible in the centre of the a ene gar of the whole one Te Mr Joxis would never vote for it as ® government work. He was for the bill before them. Mr. Davis, (dem.) of Ind., said Le wasa national man in the fullest sense. Mr. Jonxs cordially endorsed that, but he hae stated the effect of tLe genileman’s amendment was to exclude the South. Mr, Davis raid, one road would be sufficient.

Mr. McDovGat thought there could be no misunder- standing a controversy among the friends of the pending vill ag to that. He was, however, willing to test the strength of Mr. Davis’ amendment. Mr. Hamiuton (dem.), of Ma., phen agatnst Mr. Tavia’s farming out floor to the friends of the bill, and excludiy, vm the debate its opponents. Mr. Davis the gentleman knew that the enemies of the bill bad bad as much time as its friends. Mr. Lanx (dem.) of Oregon, with the consent of the House, showed the necessity of having more thaa one road ina Sepa it ot view. Mr, Davis (ot Ind.) resumed, replying to the constitu- tional scrup'es of thé Virginia friends, and demanded the lop questivn, which the House refused to sustain, 1y & vote of $1 against 83. Mr. TayLon (whig) of Ohio, believed that two thirds of the couniry wish for a railroad route to the Pacific, but not threo roads. The House was not prepared to vote. He therciore moved the subject be referred to a select committe of thirteen. Without reflection on any other gentleman, be desired thet the eminent, learned, uml a Cid Sefer gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Benton) be placed at its head, and with all his knowledge report a plan to the House for a great centaal Saitane Mr. UAGACS Ind.), modified his amendment atthe suggestion of Mr. Phelps, so as to accommodate it to the Missouri railroad. Mr. Baviy said ho should not defend Virginia politica from the attacks which“ had been made on them, for the reason that wien tee democratic party is im trouble they finda refuge of safety in the “Old Dominion.’ He and his colleagues were it im favor of the government having anything to do wita such a scheme of internelimprovement. It was visionary. He did not dou pt that the railroad will be some cay con- structed; but there was no necessity for it at present. There would not be five passengers and ore ton of freight per day. It was the most visionary scheme that ever entered Tito the mind of man. the United States should build this road no company of capitalists would accept of it on the condition of keeping it in repair. ir.

Ihe common roal over which £0,000 people travel with their property and herds, was veglected until it*was fought into the bills, that route which covers ten degrees of latitudeyuad embracesevery inch of ground over which overything travels to the P’a- cific. What better capital could stoch gamblers have, in New York or London, than this bill, with all the land and pay of government trausportion ? Meu of straw and wind come forward and get coutructs, and afterwards go into insolvenvy, which is w short reud, tov much travelled over, to get rid of Mabiliti Mr. Wasnwuny, (whig) of Me., said—Meu of straw and wind could not get the benefits referred to. He was co sirsined to believe Mr. Bentun did not want any bill, while this was as well guarded as it could be to protect: | the government. ‘The subject having beem discussed in Congres, and all sections having been beard, it were ax weil to come to » decision now as at any other time. He moveé the previous question, but withdrew it ai the re- quest ot Mr. Campbell, who said not ten men in the House bad bad time to read the factmand figures of reports of the Pacific Railroad surveys recently pringed; aud yet the gentleman from Maine asked the House to ac. on the speeches mace, some of which were for Buncombe, aud Loth.ng mere, He was iu favor of delay, as it would ecabie the Representatives of tho people to avail them- selves of important information He waa favorable to ubject to a select committee (fuse? to sustain the demand for the pre- Noes not counted. rked that the motion of Mr. Taylor purpose of reporting a better bill, y tomb of the * Capulets, "?

No men who expected Congress to legislate could make such @ proposition, The remarks of the tleman from Missouri were not worthy of notiee—they are pointless.
