Both honses of Congress yesterday plunged head_ Jong into the everlasting nigger question. In the Senate, at the termination of the reading of the Presidents message, Mr. Hale attacked the position ef the Executive with regard to the motives and ob- jects imputed to the republican party. The discus- sion assumed a wide range, and was conducted with mech spirit on both sides, Messrs. Wilson, Trumbull ané Seward, and Mason, Brown and Cass partici- pating. The House was engaged all the session on the subject of Gen. Whitticld’s admission, and ad- jparned without disposing of the question. President's message, the reports of the Secre- taries of the Interior, War and Navy and Postmas- ter General, together with the statements of the In- dian end Pension bureaus, which we publish to- @ay, occupy 2 large portion of our space, to the ex- e@usivt of muclf interesting matter of a local aud genera) character. Read the documents, and then file them away for future reference. Neither the steamer Arabia, due at Halifax, nor the Arago, due at this port, bad made their appear- ance up to late hour last night.

Committees for the year 1867 took plice yesterday between the andemocra- tic hours cf 4 and 5 5 P.M. There was consi @erable excitement in many of the wards, growing estof an attemp: on the part ot the Livby faction t xeturn their partizans, but they succeeded in very _ fw cases Asa genera) thing the delegates elect ixé fapporters of Mayor Wood, and bis adherents WF have it al! their own way in the new General Committee. Hlsewher> we give the de‘ails. The members of the electoral college met at Albany yesterday and organized. The electors @hosen for the Fitth and Ninth districts being sheent, James Kelly and Edward Field were re- spectively chosen to fill the vacancies. The Bord of “Sapervisors met yesterday, an? after considerable sqvabbling adopted resolution directing the publication of the official canvass and statements in six daily avd three Sunday newsp2- pers. The Board then adjourned sine die, Tt ap- pears that there bas been great irregularity in the setarns of the diferent wards. The Court of General Sessions assembled yester- @ay, and after the gentlemen comprising the Grand Jury were severally eworn, Judge Capron delivered & very elnborate charge. He strongly urged the enforcement of the license laws; agreed with Re- eord:r Smith that «ll violations of the election laws should be investigated, and the off-nders punished. He farthermore informed the (iraad Jury that testi- many would be laid before them deeply implicatia eGiicials of various grades, and particularly impugn- ing the integrity an] ddelity of numecous members of the Police’Department, adding that if the jary’s legitimate powers were insufficient for we purpose of a thorough investigation he could look with con- fidence to the next Legislature for the appointment, Dy law, of 2 commission, clothed with ample and summary outhori’y to ret a8 a court of inquiry into the alleged election riott. He sid that the Boson River Reilroad had been charged with causing a nttsance in Eleventh avenue, between Thir- ty-first and Fifty-ninth streets, in running a large mamber of engines and cars at arapid speed. if fhe complaint was well fonnded they incurred the very unprincipled set of rascals, who give the government no end of trouble, and would have blown the Union to the four winds but for the foresight, and the wisdom and the energy of poor Pieree. Of course to establish this, he needs to adopt all the old democratic tricks, and dissimu- late pretty extensively ; to assert that the sup- porters of Fremont were “ inflamed with a desire to change the domestic institutions of existing States; to assure the supporters of Fremont that “ their course has no other possible outiet than disunion and civil war ;” to state that the opponents of a military despotism in Kansas waat new laws of restriction to force free institutions upon the Territories; and generally to misrepresent the whole course of events during the past two years. And, after ail, when the whole special plea has been completed, he is forced to admit in the first place that the government of Kansas has been overturned—“ interrupted” is the word he nses—without hindrance from the general government; and, secondly, that there are on the statute book of Kansas ‘ laws violative of the constitution.” which nevertheless this same Franklin Pierce employed the forces of the gene- ral government in enfercing. He endeavors to excuse bimself by laying the blame on the “ peo- ple of the North and South.” But this is ridicu- lous The “people” of the North and South took very little interest in Kansas. A few per- sons North and South went to Kansas to settle. A few were sent by rabid abolitionists from New England to see that the Territory was abolitioa- ized. A few more from Missouri were sent in by the slave interest to sce that the Territory was prepared to be a slave State. Under these circumstances, what was the duty of the general government? Clearly to take no part in the controversy, but to see that the Territorial act was fairly avd freely carried out. What did it do? It interfered in the controversy di- rectly and openly, by taking the side of the slave interest, and ceusuring one set of invaders only; and having, by its counte- nance and support, helped the Missourian invaders to seize ihe polls and chooze a Territorial Legislature for Kansas, it sent the Unite? Sales troops into the Territory in or- der to carry out by force the laws h the Pré- sident now confesses to have heen ative of the constitution,” and to foree slavery upon the people of Kansas with fire and sword. It will Q oo¢ deal of special pleading to satisfy ihe people of the United States that this policy was just or creditable. So far as the rest of the message Is concerned, it ‘actory enough. The public debt has been reduced from § 27; forty- five millions of dollars and over having been paid off. The revenue from customs has execeded $64,000,000; on the strength of h, and ia view of the probability that forty-eight millions will cover the annual expenditure for the next four years, the President reiterates his recommen- dation that the tariff be remodelled and the da- ties reduced. The receipts from public lands have been $8,821,414, on sales of 9,227,878 acres. The deficiency in the Post Office is $2,- 787,046, being a larger deficiency than last year by three-quarters of a million. A With foreign powers, all our dieputesare in a fair way of adjustment. Mr. Dallas has con- cluded a treaty settling the Central American question; and all the other points in dispute with Great Britain will soon be settled. No allusioa is made in the message to the non-appointment of a British Minister, The Danish Séund duos question will, it is hoped, be at last vettled in an amicable manoer. The President announces that Russia bas agreed to Mr. Mercy’s proposition in reference to maritine warface; that the Emperor of France has expressed his general approval of it; and that the Congress of Paris may possibly lead to its general adoption. Walker in Nica- ragua is passed over rather contemptuously; but the recent new Granadian attempt to levy exor- bitant toll on American property crossing the Isthmus is stated to be unwarrantable, and to call Non-Arrtval of the Arabia.

EFFECT OF THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE—THE OASE OF GEN. WHITFIELD—THE COMMISSIONER TO NSW @RANADA, ETC. Wasmncton, Dec. 2, 1856. ‘The President’s message is the general theme of con- versation from the Capitol to Wiliard’s. Some approve, and some condemn it, That portion relating to Nicara- gua ia condemned by Southern Senators and members, and they declare openly that they will denounce it on the Orst occasion that presents itself. During the reading of the message the lobby of the Senate was fliled by foreign ministers and their legations, and they seemed to take a good deal of interest in its reading. It is the impressicn this evening of leading democrats of the Houre that Gen. Whit@eld will fail to get his seat. Commissioner Morse left here this evening for New ‘York, and will sail for New Granada on the Sth ist, His instructions have not been completed, but I under- stacd they will be by to-morrow, and forwarded to him by the eveming mail.

THIRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS. SECOND BESSION. Senate. ‘Wasenmnctom, Dec. 2, 1856, The message of the President was received and read. After the reading of the mestage a debate sprung up incidental to the motion to print it and the accompanying docoments. Mr. Hate attacked the position of the President, deny- ‘ng altogether the charges which imputed to the majo- rhy of the peopie of eleven Staics want of fidelity to con. stitutional obi! and love of the Union. He said tt was untrue they sought to usurp the power of this governmert Mr. Brows thapked the President for his fidelity in founding the voice of warning against sectional sirife, and took occasion to charge tre supporters of Fremont with the intention of sholishing rimvery everywhere; and tm this connection alluded to the views of Messrs, Seward and Wilson. Mr. Harz repeated he bad never met with an individual who advocated the doctrine that Covgress had the power to abolish slavery ip the Southern State. There were ug goubt such persous, but their numbers and influence were “¢Fy Stoai!, He bad no doubt the language used relative 16 *Re abolition of sisvery everywhere conten: plated its abo. @B by the consent of those States ia which it existed, aX4 A0} through any ineurrectionary movement, Mr. Sewanp, (rep ) of N.
