Most highly finished rooms in the Capitol. ‘despatch stating they. bad landed at Omoa, and that a ‘revolution was doubtless effected at Leon before the Ist of January; but there is the best authority for saying that the President has received no such despatch. The Committee on Commerce of the House have by one majority agreed to report a bill repealing the fishing Dounties. An effort will be made to pass it under the operation of the previous question. The death of General Quitman will be announced to} morrow, and that of Mr. Harris, of Illinois, on next Mon- day. The House Committee will on Thursday take into con- «sideration the subject of organizing Territorial govern- ments for Arizona and Dacotah, A bill for a Territorial government for Colono is to be introduced by Mr. Colfax, It embraces all the recently discovered gold regions at Pike’s Peak and part of Kansas, Nebraska, Utah and New Mexico—nearly all being taken from Kassas, and comprising about 122,000 square miles.” THIRTY-FIFFH CONGRESS. BKOOND SESSION. Senate. Wasurxaton, Jan. 4, 1859. “The Senate met at noon in the old hall, from which the desks had been removed, but a supply of cane bottomed chairs had been provided for their accommodation, ‘The galeries and floor were crowded, notwithstanding ‘the falling snow, ithaving been understood that the Vice President, Mr. Crittenden, and others, would speak. ‘The proceedings, a8 usual, opened with prayer, and the reading of the journal; after which Mr. Srvanr, (adm.) of Michigan, moved that, as many ladies were unprovided with seats in the galleries, they be admitted on the floor. Mr. Hamu (opp.), of Mo., objected, on the ground that the admission of ladies would embarrass legislative bu- finesse; consequently the ladies were not admitted. Mr. Davis (adm.), of Miss., submitted the report of the committee, stating that the new chamber was ready. Mr. Currrenvrn (opp.), of Ky., moved the adoption of the eS ‘The parting from this chamber he thought was an event of much solemnity. Many associations—many of them pleasant and proud ones—bind us to this chamber. It has been the scene of great events. Questions of the American constitution—questions of great national import—questions of peace aud war—have been debated in this chamber. Great men have been the actors. Within these walls he liad seen men whose name and fame had not been surpassed in Greek or Roman history. Here hhe had seen Clay, Webster, Calhoun, Lee, Wright and others, ‘They seem to have left on these very walls the ‘dmpress of their fame. This majestic dome seems yet to echo their voices. There are others, too, whom he would ‘not deeignate, for they had not yet fulfilled their political éervices, but whose names ure in no danger of being for- gotten. "When Senators remove to the new chamber they will carry with them the inspiration of tueir illustrious predeccezors, They will leaye bebind them no want of patriotism or attachment to the constitution. These our household gods are carried with us. The new hall will be the scene of the past. There they will ever re- the Senate of,the United States, the £ reat preserva- tive body of this grént nation, conser ving tho dovereignty sof the States and the integrity of the Union, The Vice Pkeapen addressed the Senate, giving histori- wal sketches of Congress at the various seats of govern. ment until its location at Washington. He then narrated tie burning of the Capitol by the British army, the assembling thereafter of tho Congress in Blodgett’s Hotel, on the site now occupied by the General Post Office, and finally the assembling in 1819 in the pre- sent building. He then went into an interesting compari- son of the present charactor of the Senate in the early days of the government and now. Then it was almost wholly’an executive body, and much of its business was transacted with closed doors—the President often took part in the debates, and it was not for many years that galleries were provided for spectators. He spoke of the eat mission the nation bas fulfitied and is destined to fun, urged upon Senators a due appreciation of the re- sponsibilities resting upon them, and reviewed the senato- rial career of the great dead, whose achievements and services in that chamber illuminate our history. After further remarks, which were listened to with wrapt attention, the Senate proceeded ina body to the THE NEW HALL. ‘The gencral aspect of the new hall is light and graceful. In shape and dimensions it is similar to the new Hall of Repliesentatives, but to the eye appears more finely pro- portioned. The styie and character of decoration are early the same in both houses, except that in the Senate ‘the tone of Color is much more subdued. The area of the ‘floor is 80 feet VY 48 feet, and of the roof 112 by 80 feet, the difference bow,% occupicd by a continuous gallery around the four sides of the apartment, and capable of inner roof or ceiling, of iron, seating 1,200 persons. The a 7 is flat, with deep panels, twenty-one of which are fitted with ground glass, baving in the entre of each pane a colored medallion representing the ptinthig press, steam engine, cornucopia, and other symbols of progress and plenty. ‘The light is supplied wholly chepogh this window in the roof, and the eilect is good—a flood ot light falling on the reverend signers onthe floor, while thé galleries remain in half shadow. The gas apparatus is placed above the ceiling, eo that the light «tre through the panes may seem like a softened effect of sun light. The ceiling is thirty-five feet fio the floor, but presents an appearance of greater altitude. It is encrust- ed with floral and other embellishments in high relief, and ailof iron, The floor of the chamber is covered ‘with 700 yards of tapestry carpeting, having a large pattern of flowers on a purple ground. Its effect is not unpleasing. Had time permitted a carpet would kave been manufac- tured of color and design to harmonize—as, for instance, of red stars on a buff ground. ‘The Vice President's desk 4s a modest table, of mahogany, as unlike as possible to ‘the marbie bar on which the honorable Speaker pounds. ‘The places of Senators are arranged ia three rows. The spectators’ galleries are upholstered in drab damask, rather too blue in tone for good effect. Ample accommo- dation is supplied, even to the extent of a ladies’ roving room. Access to the galleries is obtained through doors ‘of maple, inlaid with bronze. The gallery set apart for the press is fitted with desks for about twenty persons, and it is understood that no oue will be permitted within it unless specially accredited by the Vice President. When the dust of a few scasiops shall have taken tho gloss off it, and the genus loci had time to settle himself, there can be little doubt this new chamber will be found in every way more fitting than the old. ‘The wings of the Capitol being of the Roman Corinthian order of architecture, the interior fittings aud decorati are, of course, in tuarmony therewith. The hall itse!f is approached by two grand stairways—the east, of Tennes- see marbie; the west, entirely of white marble, of ex. treme purity. Neither’ is yetycompleted, but enongh is shown by the broad marble steps, the massive ballus- trades of the same material, and ‘the superb columns, with their capitals heightened with bronze, to ae the anagnificence of the design. Both stairwaysare lighted from the roof, with special adaptation to the walis bemg covercd with historical paintings. This situation is con- sidered the most favorable in the building for the execu- tion of some work of art recording the deeds of history. ‘The Senators’ retiring room and ante-chamber are ‘the They are in totally aifftrent styles. ‘The retiring room is eutirely of marble, the roof supported by columns of rare beauty. It #s impossible to dusize any effect more chaste than this apartment presents, with the cold glitter of its walls and xoof, “ unadorned, adorned the most.’’ Three mirrors, inserted as panels In the wall, are cach of the dimeasions of 120 inches in height by 60 Inches wide, The ante-room is excessive in ornamentation, and is yet unfigished, The walls are divided, by gilded ‘work in. relievo, into spaces for freeco paintings. The dome ceiling of the romn is panelled, each panel being filled with @ rosette of bur- nished gold, The four spandreils and the centre of the dome have allegorical paintings executed in a superior manner, and forming a contrast to certain medallions in another portion of the building, where one represents a celestial being with a disiocated hip, and another the God- des of Melancholy dancing the bolero. ‘The President’s and Vice President’s apartments and the committee rooms enter from the level of the Seaate floor. All are decoral Some few are finished, but the greater number are incomplete, in consequence of the ac- tion of Congress in withholding supplies. The corridors and passages are likewise in progress of embellish. ment, All are laid with encaustic tiles. The arched roofs are, generally speaking, finished in geometric de- Bigns el nelosing landscape and heraldic devices. The walls re covered with trellis work of flowers and foliage, on which cupids and native American birds, beasts ‘and * creeping things, are ascending and descending, with more ‘or less resemblunce to nature. Some of the flower and fruit pieces aro gems. They might be cut from the wall and framed as originals. ‘The heating and ventilating arrangements are said to be the largest in the worid—those of the English House of Parliament not excepted, Every portion of the Capitol— that mountainous mass of marble—is at once ventilated and warmed by one apparatus. Eight boilers convey ‘Steam to coils set in teqres Chere, of the cellarage, suy. plying any required degree of heat, and at the same time Indtive power to two fans in either ‘wing. One of these tans sends continual breezes of medicated air through the smaller eee whilo the other performs the same service for Senate chamber. The air is graduated according to the atmospheric temperature without, and the political excite- ment within—during a sectional debate never to exceed 90° and on ordinary occasions to range between 70° and 73°. ‘Thirty thousand cubic feet of air are circulated thi the chamber por minute, which quantity may be jowremes to 80,000. The apparatus is completely under control Any proportion of moisture may be imparted, from the delicious freshness of pane | rf the feeling that prelude @ thunder shower, or even till the atmosphere “ Thaw and resolve itsolf into a dew.” Tt may be prudent to add that as each room is furnishet with flues and registers, Senators, on the first syu of asphyxia, can protect themselves from the iu tion of operators, As regards the exterior of the edifice. the ground is yet in possession of the workmen, The approaches are en- cumbered with materials, the fallen columns and. recum- ‘Dent keystones sugeaive (with no disreapect to the able officer in onarte) Meigs among the ruins of Carthage. While the mass of spectators were settling ‘themselves fn eel Copied memorials, inaudible in the noise, but Spparenely ot ‘a private nature, were ted; and Mr. ALLORY, (adm.) of Fla. , from the Naval Commitwe, re. Ported a'bill to build ton. ‘additional sloops-of-war, which ‘was laid over. He a he would make an effort to obtain an early vote upon it. Mr. Mattory also introduced a bill to raise the pay of the officers of the navy. Quiet being restored, the Senate sppropriately devoted the rest of the say to discussing jonNson’s (of Tenn.) motion, instructing the Finance Committee to investi- gate into the expenditures of the public money, and to re port the means to bring the exponses of the government the pe of rigid economy. fessrs, Johnson, Seward, Bigier, Fessenden, Toombs, Shields, Davis, Collamer, Mabon Werest , Clingmnan, Groen} Reid and others, took part in the debate, All agreed in NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5, 1859.

The White House was thronged from eleven until two o’clock by as motley a crowd as ever was received by Mr. Buchanan, not excepting the fantastically attired ft facially be: daubed Indian delegations that have paid hum a visit since his inauguration. There were grave Scuators and face tious Representatives; there were knots of lobbymen, whose countenances were lugubrious in consequence of the depletion of Uucle Sam’s money drawer; there were of. fice seekers, whose threadbare coats denoted a want of fortune, but an actual want of office; there were naval officers ‘and oflicers in the army; there were filibusters, foreign legations, farmers, inechanics, merchants, gamblers and fadies—all’ pouring ria Magny oak of the executive mansion, each, no doubt. feeling eatistied that ‘Old Buck” was the right sort of ee and a clever looking fellow.

The President looked as hearty indeed as a “buck,” and was more colloquial than on former occa- sions of the kind, which peemed to satisfy everybody. Next to the President, Lewis Cass, Secretary of State, robably received more calls than any other personage in ‘ashington, This venerable statesman, who was the compeer of Clay, Webster, Calhoun, Jackson, Benton and other illustrious inen whose names ‘are indellibiy written upon the pages of our country, like them, will soon be resting in eterna! slumber, although be showed remark- able vitality and vigor on New Year's day. The illustrious Secretary lives in a brown stone house, not far from the White House, which is about sixty feet front and about seventy feet in depth. General Cass is yeputed io be worth five millions of dollars. His house fg beautifully furnished, the settees and chairs being covered with blue and white damasked silk. The marble medailions, statuary, paintings and other features of art which decorate the walls and various niches in his house, are said to be valued at four hundred thousand dollars. Among these gems of art ure the following:—Marble medallions of St. Peter and St. Paul, which belonged to the Church of St. Peter, in Montorio, which was built by Constantine over the spot where St. Peter was crucified. ‘They were bought by Mujor Cass while on -o visit to General Oudinot, the French commander. ‘inal medallions of white marble, in superb frames, ly enamelled, of Innocent XI. and Leo X., obtained by General Cass from the Monastery of Camaldolis. Tweive medallions, in superb frames, representing the Saviour, Virgin, and some of the Apostles. ‘They belonged to the Church of St. Paul, which was the first Christian church built in Rome. ‘I! hey are masterpieces.

Governor Towssexp observed that their side of the Board (republican) had had no conference ag to the nomi- pation of a candidate for the Presidency; but they, at the sume time, held themselves entitled to the Drive of doing 80, ‘He, thereiore, moved that the should take a recess of ten minutes before Proceeding, to 2 blot to afford them an opportunity of deciding if would offer a candidate. ‘The Board then took a recess of ten minutes. ‘On the return of the members— Messrs. McFnoy and Townsknp stated that after a short consultation they had not been able to ve upon a candidate, and had, therefore, brought back meatier: wo be dealt with by the Board. ‘A desultory discussion then took as to the proprie- ty of one side of the Board—either A eed republican or demo- cratic—electing a President for the ite Bide. Governor Ouiver observed that in the remarks of some of the gentiemen there. was an implication that there were Certain members who were incompetent to fill the office of Prevident. He did not think Board was answerable for that. The people bad sent fe members there, and if any of them were unfit for the place of President they should not have been sent there. ‘After some further remarks, the Board went into ballot for a President, Messrs, B.'F. Pinckney and McKiroy being appointed tellers, On the first ballot there appeared For Goy. Dugro. . : For Goy. Gunther. Molone Blank. On the second ballot the aaalors were For Dugro.. For Gunther... 1 Moloney 2 Blank. 1 Governor Dugro, having received the greatest number of votes, Was declared duly clected the President of the Board for the present year. Ex-President “Smith then vacated his chair and pro- ceeded to instal the newly elected officer into the coveted Place. In doing so Mr. Smith delivered the hammer to the new President, and in a few brief but com- Plimentary words resigned the place to his suc- cessor, remarking that be hoped President Dugro would diligently and faithfully discharge the duties of the chair. President DuaRro received the hammer from the hands of his predecessor, and briefly returned thanks to the Board for the honor which had been conferred on him in appointing him their presiding officer. He would endea- vor, in £0 far ag he matzht be able, to discharge the dutics net ‘pon him witha view to the best interests of he public Pee of the department. He Bs ntgen to return his thanks to all the members of the Boar: A ballot was then taken for a Secretary “for the present, year, resulting thus lanks The first mentioned’ gentleman was therefore declared electes ts ‘Were then drawn for the allocation of seats at the Board, resulting in a thorough change of the former sitting arrangements. A communication from the ferrymaster of Blackwell's Island, agking to change the ferry landing to a nearer point during the wimter months, was referred to the Com- mittee on Ferries. Two communications—one from Mary Dubois, and the other from Daniel F. Tiemam, Mayor—were received. mey bore reference to the erection of a Foundling Hos- The object of these communications was ‘to secure ihe ‘appointment by the Board of Ten Governors of a com- mittce to co-operate with the Mayor and Miss Mary Dubois in the management of the projected institution. Referred to the Committee on Outdoor Poor. Areport from the Committee on City Prisons was pre- sented, recommending an appropriation of $750 per an- num to the Warden of that institution for house reat. A motion was made to lay the reportover until next meeting. Governor Motoygy knew of a house somewhere in the Fifth avenue tobe rented for $2,500 per annum. He did not see why the committee did not recommend this sum, in- stead of $750. He thought abe proposal for an a) ropri- ation for house rent for the Warden of the City Prison, when there was a good residence in the institution, which has always been occupied, was an insult, if not 'to the Board, at least to the public at large. He, therefore, pro- posed that the report be deferred indefinitely. ‘The report was eventually aid over until next meeting. A resolution was agreed to that in future all orders tor wines, segars, &c., to be used in the institutions, shall be put on the regular requisitions and read at the meetings of the Board, except in cases of emergency, when the War- dens are instructed to make the necessaly applications to the standing committees. ‘The follow: ing is the regular weekly statement presented to the Board, and shows the total number of inmates, as well as their location, in the different ins#ltutions at the beginning of the year 1859:— Number remaining Dee. 25, 1858.
