Mr. Crittenden presented a petition to the Senate, nu- merously sigued, asking for a modification of the natu- alization laws. He stated that when the present laws ‘were enacted the emigration was trifling; now it was -guflicient each year to control some of the States of the Union, The subject will be called up at an early day ia next session. ‘The Compensation bill, which has been adopted by the ‘two houses of Congress, increases their own pay this Congress seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Mr- Butler moved to reconsider it this morning, in order to strike out its retrospective features, but the Senate re fused. A rumor was current in the hall to-day that the President would veto it as uaconstitational. This alarmed ‘the democrats not a little, who had voted for it. A veto ofthe bill, they admitted, would not on!y kill the Dill, but them too, ‘The House bi! providiog tor settling the arcounts of evolutionary officers was caled up in the Senate to-day, ‘but was portponed until the third Monday in December ‘next. Senators Toombs and Clay threatened to kill it by debate if not postponed. This they could havg¢ done, as the previous question does not prevail in the Senate. The Lighthguse Appropriation bill was passed by the ‘Senate, with some few amendments, and will go, with ‘all the other appropriation bills, toa Committee of Con- ference. ‘The President’s veto of the Patapsco Improvement bill sustaine | by the Senate by one vote, but was recon- d and the bill paseed over the President's veto by large covstitutional majority. Mr. Mason manifested jnuich feeling at this rough usage of the President's pre- ogative. The question whether the Senate could recon. ‘der a vote given under the circumstances was ably ‘dscussed, This veto was inteded to operate on the de. noo! vote of Maryland. The bill providing for running the southern boundary ne of Kansas Territory was passed by the Senate without division. This is the only Kansas measure which has out found “ Jordan a hard road to travel,’’ for the Senate nsiats by a vote of three to one on striking out the neas provieos On the Army and Legislative, Executive Jind Legisiaiive Appropriation billk. ‘The House refuses recede.

The House bill to regulate the diplomatic and consular systems of the United States, aud the anuual fortification Vill were passed. The vote on the bill for the improvement of the Des- moines Rapids was reconsidered, and the bill was then passed over the President’s veto by 30 against 14. The bill for the improvement ofthe Patapsco River, was alko reccpsidered and passed over the Presideuts ve,o. Mr. Hester, (dem.) of Va., from the Committee of Con fcrence on the Civil Appropriation bill, reported they were vnable to agree, and he hoped the Senate would recede from all its amendments, excepting those in reference to Kansas, and for books to members. Mr. Fisu (nigger worshipper) of N. Y., wanted the Sevate to distinctly understand, before voting on the question, that by insisting on the omission of the Kansas amendments, the 1oss of the bil was certain. Mr. Stupett. (dem.) of Ga., was prepared to meet that issue, and wished the fate of al! the appropriation bis was involved in the same question. Mr. Jones (dem.) of Tenn., was willing to recede from all the amendments im which the mterest of tbs ponete tuents alone were at stake on mere dollars and gents, but where the question of principle was concerned; heywould tell Mr. Fish that Southern Senators were stadding upoa the. rights of qos” ‘and meant, ad re ir.

Disastrous Storm at the South, DREADFUL LOSS OW LIFE—DESTRUCTION OF WATE .- ING PLACES—DAMAGE TO THE CROPS, ETO., BTC. New ORLeANS, Aug. 14, 1856 A terrible atorm occui"ved in this vicinity on Sunday, which lasted all day, and’ until Tuesday evening Ite efiects, however, were most disastrous at Last Island, a great summer resort, and which our accounts represent to have been onti rely inundated. Every build ing on the island is said to-have beew swept away, and it bas been positively ascertaimed that ene hundred aad cight persons have been lost. It is feared that Grand Caillom Island, another watering place, has also been submerged, and many lives Sost a: well as property destroyed. The corn, cotton and sugar crops have been incalcala- bly injured. The steamers Nautilus and Perseverance sre several days overdue, and it is feared that something has hag- pened to them. The steamship Texas has gone in search of them. The storm extended tar up the river. At the @cvern- ment Hospital, Baton Rouge, fourteen imches of water fell between Sunday evening and Tuesday evening. The survivors at Last Island reached this city this morning. They estimate the loss of life at two hundred. One hundred and eighty-two have already been counted as lost. Many of the survivors here from Last Island are badly wounded and bruised. The dead bodies at the island were plundered by a set ot pirates who inhabit it. The steamer Perseverance bas just arrived, but nothing bas as yet been heard from the Nautilus. New Oaikans, Aug. 16, 1856. Nothing definite bas yet been heard from Cailloa Island, but there has undoubtedly beem great loss of life there. It is reported that thirty bogies had been found cn one end of the island. It is supposed that at least ten thousand dollars {n mo vey, in packets, fell into the hands of the pirates on Las Island, and about five tnousand dollars worth of baggage. The Joss On this island is estimated at over one hundred jbousand dollars. ‘The banks of the river at Bayou Sara caved in, carry- 1 away three hundred residences. No lives were loat. Several vessels were blown ashore atthe mouth of the iesissippi. The telegraph lines have suffered severely. ‘The loss at Caillon Island cannot fall short of sixty ourand dollars, : ‘The Louisiana arrived at Galveston on the 1ith, picking yp on the way the cabin door of the steamer Nautilus, hich vessel it is now supposcd was lost during the late storm.

Matters at Staten Island—More of the Arrests of the Demolishers of the Barricade—No New Excitement. ‘There are but one or two additional facts to be noted touching occurrences yesterday at Siaten Island. At Castleton, sentinels are still retained to keep watch at the Quarantine Hospital gate and along the walls. There are ten sentinels ia all, who alternate in their duties keeping vp watch day and night. As parties are por mitted by the sentinels to para freely in and out of the hospital gate, the utility of continuing them on duty is questioned by some. Although they do not pretend to the exercise of any power in preventing any one passing who has come through the gate from within the hospital encloture, they, however, are rigid in probibiting any one from scaling the walla [rom withia or without. Mean- time, it is proper to note in this connection that a stato ment made in Saturday's Herat, that perfect freedom of ingress and egress was permitted through the hospital gate, referred only to such permission being given on the part of these outside sentinels. It was under- stood, of cour that for any one to get ‘hrough the be must fret receive « a proper permit from the hospital authorities. Some of the Castleton villagers and others gathered the impres sion from the statement made that on the part @f the hospital authorities no restraint was exercised in allow ing parties and their baggage to go outside, This is nov #0, but on the contrary the utmost rigtlance is oxercised to guerd the safety of the public health and not allow any one to leave the hospitai who is not perfectly free from tofkction, and the same w (th articles of clothing and bed. ulsg going from the hospital. Toe fact has already been published that George W. Deley, the noted one-eyed emigrant raunor; Peter W. Tefl, and Joseph Silver, bad been arrested on a charge of aidiog to demolish the barricade erected around the Quaractine Hospital gate. The parties were taken in po be | ennstable Johu B Giles after their arrest, and copveyed before Jurtice Fream Oa the examination Rel woa fully committe? ta default of bail to answor at the rf&t Court of Seavions.

Of the other parties. warrants for whos» arress were issued at the same tine with the warrants for the ertest of the above, none as yet havo boon arrested. it \s told that no special effort will be made to effect any ad (igonal arrests. ‘There were reported four new cases of yollow fever bronght yesterday to the hospital; they are stated obave come from a sbip arrived a ‘ay or two since at Quarentine and sent down to anchor in the vicinity of South West Spit. The romor created no excitement among the Castleton vilisgers = Thr apprehension of dan ger tron the yellow fever bas apparently almost entirely subsided.

Of two countries, with an equal amount of popalation, the weaithiest and most ctvilized will consume the gre test weight of soap.” The inhabitants of New York have | ved the reputation of being in thelr persons among Ueciean- people in ihe world. Let not the City Fathers adopt any » to banish soap and reduce as to the position of the Althiest in the creation. Health and clesnlinees are 80 closely allied, that if thay should be divoreed by the Roard of Health, we fear they will’ only evidence that they have mistaken their mission. ‘That soap boiling establishments, though offensive to the olfactory nerves, sre not injuriona to health, was proved on a trial reported in the Nuw Yous Hxiaun, in’ October, 1842, by Professors Smith and Obilton. On the contrary, some of our most scientific men are of opinton that the steam arising from the boiling of soap hus a salubrions elfect upon the atmos: phere. One strong fact not been dented, namely: that none of Re men employed in theso establishments have ever failen victims to cholera. Surely this speaks volumes. But, if the Hoard of Health think that the trads of soap boilers is pernicious to the public health, let there be no distinction in the spirit of fate pinay to individuals and of justice tothe public; let them a!l be laid fow with one indiserimiinating siroke. The celebrated Dr. Mitchell, of this city, said, in 1832, he would be gind to see ® soap boiling establishment in every siroet; then there would be no veliow fe Dr. Mitchell and Dr. Hossack, both emi were In the habit of taking their patients ail sumption into soap factories, to inkale the steam arising there from, and with success. There are men now living in this city whe have been entirely oured of that complaint by work ing'in those e ments. The special committee of tho Board of Health, Coun- cilman Phillips chairman, met. ou Friday, to hear evi dence upon the complaint against the soap ard fat boil- ing establishment of Wm. H. Pmner, in Seventh street, between Eleventh and Twelfth avenues. Mr. James 3. Sheys appeared as counse) for complain- ants. The first witness called wes Cornelius Cark. Ho said that fat was bciled at this place; the fat was of all descriptions, and had a sickly, wopleasant smell; be had not been sick bimself and none of his femily from its «fleet; he had seen bones dumped on the walk and in the gutters in frout of ihe — two slaughierhouses were pear the soap factory; these places were there be- fore the opening ol the soap factory; trom the slaugpter- houses he bad never perceived any’ particularly unpieca- sapt smel) Joln Wilton, next called, tostttied that ne had expe- riepoed sickness from the seap aud tat factory; it war disagreeable to his family, but mone except himself had been made sick; he thougut the disagreeable smell came trom d ‘himney. a8 well aa trom windows; he had nothing to ‘omgeie of as to the ughterbouses adja. cent. Mrs. Rose Timmons wag next called. She saidshe had been mace frequently sick from the fat factory; it would make a score of horses vomit; she bad but just risen from a eick bed, where sbe bad been confined three weeks, ond she attributed her sickness to the effects of the fuctery. Several other wituesses appeared, confirming satisfac- torily the above. Dr. Firth, Mra. Frances Gregory and Daniel Smith tes. tiled to the healthfulness of the odor ensuing from Mr. Pierson’s factory. They stated that no impure fat was used in the place. The committee gave no decision, but announced that they would speedily prepare their report, Brooklyn Board of Health. At the meeting of the Brooylyn Board of Health Satur- day morning, application was made for permission to bring the brig Wm. R. Kirby, which arrived from Rio Grande, Brazil, June 28, alongside the wharf to discharga her cargo, which consists of hides, horn, bair, &. On account of the excited state of the public mind, permis- sion was refused. A committee of the citizens of the Eighth ward (Gowanus), appointed at a meeting of citizens on Friday evening, waited upon the Board aud stated that as the aisease did not secm to abate, they would suggest that a patrol of police be stationed on Twenty-sixth street, to prevent atl communication between the infected district and the rest of the ward by ragpickors and others of that class. The Mayor inforine’ them that this ution had al- ready beep taken. They also requested him to take some steps to stop the communication between the ships and the shore, Gonsiderablo smuggling had taken place, yeusels, which wuvld of course pat @ stop to thix practice. Alderman Vau Brunt, however, said the smuggling was carried on even With ie vessels at Staten Islana. ‘The Mayor replied he covld not interfere with this; the cibzens must do something to protect themselves; they liad better continue the Vigilance Committes and patrol the beseb. The Mayor etated that the Board of Health of New Ttrecht had made aa appointment to meet him this morn. ing in regard toa patrol fer shat district, They did not seem tnelined or capable of doing anything to tafte care of the meelves. ‘ted on the certificate of the Health Vermission was Cheer vo the brig Eudoris, froin C.enfuegos, to lighter her cargo from Quarantine and land it at Commercial wharf, Atlantic Dock. Castleton Board of Health, ‘The Board ef Health of Castleton met yesterday after- noon, at 3 o'clock, at the office of Justice Wolf. There were present at the mect ng Sapervisor Carietopher, Jus- tices Pream, Deforrest and Wolf. Sepervisor Christo- pher presided. Dr. Lata, the Henlth Officer, pursuant to a revolation pureed at the last meeting, read a report as to the present health of the town of Castleton. He stated that tho town was in a healthy state, and that no cases of yellow fover existed within its boundaries. A pertially written report was next presented by Mr. L. €, Clark, acting ae counsel for the Board, giving a re view of the report of Dr. Thompson, the Health Oillcer at Quarantive, and vindicating tho action of the Board of Health st Castteton in erecting the recent barricade end the hospital gate, and other action on the part of the puble authorities for the preservation of the general health. “Eubcequént to the roport of Mr. Clark (which. will be gvven 9 full (a tomorrow's Haxauy), a brief cowversa von eysued upon the propristy of recoustractiag the bar- teade Yr Came advised, that if the regulations which had beea ctopted—part of wh.sh war the erection of the barri- cade —by the citizens of Gastleton, werelegal, there was fe shadow of doubt na to the right to the barri. ew'c. ‘Ihe rules should be either carried out thoroughly or dropped.

The all-absorbing questions in this commuatty are, “Have we yellow fever ®mong us?” and if so, ‘* What is the cause?” About two \veeks ago it was announced that two or three cases of thi¥ disease ,had occurred im the garrison ; but not having sc'en any myself, and know- ing that a form of remittent fever prevailed to some ex- tent, many symptoms of which, in bad cases, approxima- ted yellow fever, I regarded the report as ill advised and probably wrong. Moreover, I coulth see ne medium through which the infectiom of yellow fever covld'possi- bly beccmmanicated. Tho Anger of the’ commurity wae pointed towards several ships anchored in Gravesent bay, Bear bere, as the cause of the reported fever: but with the md of a powerful telescope I could not bring those vessels sufficiently near to belleve that t¥ey wero the cause of any diseate in this community. Some days after this my attention was called to several cases near Yellow Hook, om the rvad to Brooklyn, over two milevfrom here, which 1 still jed as re mittant “ever, yet of's decided ly yellow hue. Not song after this i heard of bisek vomit! at Yellow Hook, whics seemed to oer unmistakeable eyt- dence of te character of the diseese, On enmiry re- ports were fally contirmed, and the frst questiom settled yellow fever become cagrafted up%a ourshere and wns “among ws.”’ Directly opposite’ Yellow Hook; on Staten Island, stands the Quarantine hospital with its witited sepulcfre-like fromt full in view; before it the ebipping frox¥ sue tropics lie at anchor in close proximity; theit pestiferous helxs arc é!sgorged of thetr coments, and ie pent up poison that bas been gaining strength during long voyages ‘s allowed to-escape, to be waited by the wi:tds to find a ‘odge on shore. Here, tog, theseehips, when pronounced infectious, are firipped theirMrvitare an.) bedaing, wich is cast into the sea, to” be te&ta by the tide and winds and finally thrown uy the beach.

Ihave been exceedingly unwilling: teadmit this unwelcome guest, but when hs yellow visege ts present- ed before me, there is no use ‘m denying facts, for such @ ~ course leads to indifference and inaction. There is an important infereace to be draw from what Thave here stated, and thet ‘x; that our Qnarantine, as now situated, offers but very slight protection to the citl- zens of New York and Brooklyn, If a malignant disease can creep over the boundaries within which tae is made to confine it to become engrafted upon a retiled shore like this, how can we rely with apy cortain- ty upon its being kept out of the adjacent and det populated city? Nothing short of the late exceedingly fa- vorable chawge ip the weather, {rom great host to a ool atmosphere and frequent showers, lias prevented this in- feetion Red bev fever from culminating and spreading alopg the beach from Yellow Hocls to Brooklyn, and trom » thence to New York. There is food-tor it in abun ‘end all that is required is a steady temperaturo above bd deg., and it would spread like fire im prairie grass. In- }abitants are not eas ntixl to the propagation of the poi- son, but merely its effects. We have now to watch the manifeetation of this disease, and provide a: far as posrible against ita progress. Hat crea] bounds of Quarantine, it is impossible to w will stop. Oor greatest relmace is in the state of the -weathor, If it holds _cool, with repeated showers from the north, it may pot extend any farther; but should we be subjected to another beated term of long duration, it would most likely be otherwise. Much could be done for the proteo- tion of the public by a properly, organized Board of Hiealth, to act a& Yellow Hook, and ta that vicinity. It is very desirable, (00, that such a Board ahould bs made of Members who would not ran away on the first ance of a new cece of disease, and that one or more of members should at least be competent to advise in gard to the necessary measures to avoid the spread wfection. A police force should be empivyed tioned along the entire euore of the Narr ws, rtrvetions to seize and burn evory thing that ebap, and prevent every such article likely to be tnfectaa from being taken away by ragpickers or others. Brery Stagpant pool of water shouid be plentifully sat jime, and every other source of infection or condi- tion calculated to foster the developement of yellow fever poison, should as fer as possible be removed or remedied. If our citizens would stay at home, and do their to themselves and their neighbors, there would be litle cause for apprehension. It is vory rare that one saves hfe or money by running away from zollow + and there is a duty which every citizen owes bis neighbor, which cannot be performed in leaving him without Re \cotion or means to protect bimself. c.
