THE OBSTRUCTIONS AT HRLL GATE, ETC. Mr. Sewarp, (free soil) of N.Y., presented a petition from Messrs. Husted & Krochl, sub-marine engineers, proposing for a per centage of duties to remove the rocks in Hell Gate, Referred to Committee on Commerce. Mr. James, (dem.) of R.I., called up @ bill relative to patents, and made it @ special order for next Saturday. Mr. Sewarp, from the Committee on Pensions, re- ported adversely to the petition of R, Williams. Passed. EMIGRANT PAUPERS AND CONVICTS. Mr. Cooper, (whig) of Pa., offered a resolution that the President be requested to cause the Secretary of State and Secretary of Treasury to communicate to the Senate from their cepartments all information relative tothe tranrportation of convicts and paupers into the United States from foreign countries, and what agency their governments have had in sending them here. Al- 80, Low many volunteer emigrants have arrived withia wo years past. Resolved, That the Committee on the Judiciary be in- structed to inquire what, if any, legisiation is required to prevent foreign eats from Senspneting. con- victs and paupers into the United States, and also whether any and what legislation is necessa'y to pro- wee voluntary emigration hither of either of the above clas: THE BOUNTY LAND BILL ) of ©), proposed Kir! a per cent increase for invalia pensioners. Rejec! Mr. CLavrox, (whig,) of Del, moved .o exclu serier from the benefits of tho bill. Agreed to. Mesers. DAWSON, (whig.) of Ga., and Sroart, (dem ,) of Mich., occupied about half an bour of time in charg- ing each other with incensistencies in reference to this and other kindred measures last session. Mr. Sewarp—The question is u the adoption of the substitute of the Serator from Pennsylvania, That is objectionable, because the principl of the bill aad the object to be attamed are antagoniatical. Volunteers are generally moved by patriotism, and are generally more meritorious than soldiers of the |ne. They leave their occupations for the emergency, at a great sacrifice, Such were the Plattsburg volunteers, from the States of Vermont and New York, in the war ot 1812, for they left their occupations and devotedly gave themselves up to the service of their country. Now, to discriminate against such as these ia to discourage the militia, the most important institution of free countries. We mast always have a small standing army, but at an expense of republican principles and risk to’ republican institue tions. Mr. Stvart said—The donation is too large in amount. If we pay at all, we should pay what we owe, and not reduce our debt by an unjust discriminatios Mr. Brodhead's substitute wax then adopted, and Mr. Welter’s amendment revived and agreed to Mr. Burien, (dem.) of 8. C., offered ao amendment to place the widows of the Kevolutionary seldiera on an equal fosting with the Indians, and offered an amend- ment to that effect, but Mr, Brodhead dissented. Mr. Henrsr, (dem.) of Va, said he was instructed by his State to vote for the Revolutionary relicts, but he war afraid of overloading the bill. ‘Ii. BUTLER said thie was merely a proposition to put the widows of the soldiers of the War of the Revolution on an equality with the widows of the soldiers of the war of 1812." Adopted almost unanimously. Mr. Foor, (whig) of Vt , advocated the claims of the Platts burg volunteers, and an ameadment inc rporat.ng them was agreed to. Mr. Fresenvey, (whig) of Me., tried to incorporate the Aroostook soldiers; but Mr. Stuart said if this were done, the soldiers of the Patriot, Wolverine and Mormon wars would app! Mr. Fexsexpen replied, advocating his amenament. Mr. Wriien opposed it. Mr. Dovax, (dem ) of Iowa, hoped Senators would not try to extend the provisic f the bill further. Br. Fessenden’s amen nent was then rejected. Mr. Raporn, (whig) of N. ©, advocated a end. ment to bring in all the volunteers of all the wars of the United States. Mr. ReTLER moved to acres to the widow ofeach ed. Adjourned. House of Representatives. Wasutvatoy, Jan, 23, 1855. CONSOLIDATING CERTAIN LAWS, XTC. Mr. Fut, (dem.) of Me., introduced a bill amending and consolidating the navigation, revenue and collection laws. Referred to the Committee on Commerce. Monday, Tuesday and Wedaesday of next week were set apart for the consideration of Territorial bu: On motion of Mr. Currixa, the Senate bill granting » register to the bark Collins, under the name of ‘Lilly o New York,” was passed. NAVY YARD AT BRUNSWICK, GA. Mr. Sewann, (dem.) of Ga., was allowed, by unanimous consent, to make a few remarks, He re‘erred to the pe- tition presented by him asking for the establishment of anavy yard at Brunewirk, Georgia. This subject was sent to the Committee on al Affairs, and nothing has been heard of it since. He wixbed to know whether the standing committees have the right, exclusively, to con trol the business of the Hou-e aad make their rooms the graves of all measures referred to them At the last session three millions of d Mars were appropriated for building six firat ¢ fi The relations of this country toward require this provision, and the President sent in a oi 9 the subject which ‘was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, where it bow sleeps, potwithstancdiog the chairman of thet commit- tee, Mr. bayly, said it exerted bis admiration. He wantei the country to know that the committees manage vusi- ness more than the House: two-thirds of it is manufac- tured by the cepartments, and the House required to endorse it. H+ made 00 charges of corruption, but the tendency is evil, Standing committees are not judges of what the country wants; they should either report favorably or unfavorably on the matters submitted to them, and let the House tave definite action. THE PACIFIC RAILROAD BILL. The House voted, on a motion mate yesterday, to re- consider the vote by which the Pacific Railroad bill was referred to a select committes and to lay that motion on the table. Decided in the affirmative oy a majocity of one. was taken up. Mr, Wainer, (dem. a de- ‘ive one hundred and sixt: Hevolutionary soldier. Adopt- THE PRENGH SPOLIATION BILL.

Heiotended to move for & substitute for the House biil, that of the Senate, provit- ing for the direct appropriation of $5,000 000 from the treasury, and the appointment of @ solicitor on the part of the government to be to before the bourd, to nes that justice was done.

Mr. Baviy—That is to be ascertained by the Board. The five mrilions are to sat efy all c! Mr. Himmanp, (dem.) of N. H —{t bas been estimated that the claims are between thirty and forty millions of dollars, without interest. Mr. Bavty—{ don't believe any such thing.

Mr. Onx contended if there were any obligation on the pert of the government to pay “ the cemands, itis under the obtigation to pay all. This vill wax but eu- wring & wedse.

Tyler's paper recently contained an article on the topics pertinent to the existing cagvass in Vir- inia, upon which the member felt it his privilege to comment with something leas of that urbanity and amiability which the sensitive chivalry of the editor re- quired from the critics on hia professional Inbors.

The result wasa challenge from cide re tr mp which the Sire eres fa receive this stage roceetings police in- tervened, but their services were not required, for Mr. Smith had Bertoipecmly declined the honor of an invita. tion to the field.

She sailed from Savannah on the 17th inst., and went ashore shortly after six o'clock on Monday morning, op- posite Babylon, during the violent storm, having become perfectly unmanageable, Captain Mitchell and his crew succeeded in getting ashore in their boats with great difficulty six hours after the vessel struck, after lomng their best boat, which was swamped, The ship lay at last accounts high and dry. Her mizen- topmast was cut away, when the mainmast went along with it, She is very much hogged. Her cargo is com- posed of rice and cotton The rice is very much da- maged; the cotton is in good erder. There is but a little probability of ever getting her off, as the tid very high when she went on, au, to- gether with the strong wind, she was drivea so far up that the chance to float her is very small. She is owned by, and was consigned to, Mr. Charles Bulkley, of South street. § ‘Tho Sullivan was an A234 vessel, having been built at East Haddam in 1839, aud was valued at $14,000, which is covered by insurance in Wall street.
