Now, it seems, he is organizing peaceful emigration to Arizona and Northern Mexico, to develope the rich mines, we suppose, in those regions. Another curious fact, in connection with private flibus- ters, is in the organization in your city and in Washington -of a peaceful emigration party, called the Northern Ari- zona Association, of which General Henningsen is to be the chief. With two active spirits, like Henningsen and Lockridge, Arizona and Northern Mexico stand a chance to be fully developed, ‘THE GENERAL NEWSPAPER DESPATCH. Wasuinaton, Feb. 3, 1859. Senator Toombs intends early next week to bring for- ward a bankrupt bill, and sustain it bya speech. It is similar in its details to the one matured by the Committee on Juiticiary at the last session. Although there is much pressure of public business, some of the prominent frionds ‘the measure in both houses, if it is presented, think the Dill will pass, provided it is advocated with zeal. It is claimed that the Senate being opposed to interfering with the tariff gives the bill additional strength. ‘Taking into view the embarrassments of the Treasury, and the near approach of the termination of Congress, the House Committee on Military Affairs decided to-day to lay ahe whole subject of the establishment of a natioal foun- dry over till next Congress. The name of Hon. John Cochrane was omitted in the re- cent published vote on suspending the rules to enable Mr, Gilgore to introduce his recolution condemnatory of the re- openeng of the African slave trade. He voted in the af- firmative. sai THIRTY-FIFTH CONGRESS. BECOND BESSION. Senate. Wastincton, Feb. 3, 1859. MAILS BETWEEN NEW YORK AND HAVANA. Mr. Wricut, (adm.) of N. J., presented the memorial of Mora & Brothers, and Navarro, and Navarro & Company, who are about to establish a line of steamers between New York and Havana, offering to carry the mails at $1 60 per mile bi-monthly, or oftener, at the same rate. Referred to the Post Office Committee. IMPROVEMENT OF LAKES AND HARBORS—TIK NEW YORK ME- MORIAL. Mr. Sewarp, (opp.) of N. Y., presented a memorial of the Legislature of New York for the improvement of lakes and harbors. In making this communication, Mr. Seward said:—The Senators from New York are charged by the autborities of that State to submit to Congress a com- munication of high importance concerning tne reci- procal duties of New York and of the United States to the whole country, on the subject of the internal navigation which constitutes the basis equally of our domestic and foreign commerce. In the year 1811, only twenty-two years after the reorganization ot the American Union under the federal constitution New York, by a delegation of two of her most honored ‘and eminent statesmen, appeared here and addressed Congress on the same great subject, appealing to the national legislature to construct, or to lend to Btate her favor and aid in constructing, an artificial channel through her borders by which to connect the ocean navi- gation with the navigation of the great inland seas. It is not wonderful that the appeal was disregarded, since even Thomas Jefferson, who seemed almost inspired with prophetic forecast of the working of our great political system, pronounced the project premature by a poriod of at least one hundred years. Less, however, than haif ‘that probatory term has elapsed, ‘and New York comes before Congress again to tell them that, unaided and alone, she bas executed the great enterprise, how she has per- formed it, what are its national benefits, and to invoke now only that smat! measure of acceptance and adoption which is necessary toa full and perfect fruition of those be- nefits. New York, beginning in 1817, just after the second war with Great Britain, completed ‘in 1825 a navigable channel iorty fect wide and four feot deep, from Albany, ‘at the head of tidewater on the Hudson, 'to Oswego, on the sbore of Lake Ontario, and to Buffalo, at the foot of Lake Erie. The scale, adopted not in conformity to the ‘reat design, but m compliance with the exigoncies of hor Francial condition, proved quite inadequate, and she had scarcely brought the narrow channel into use betore she began its enlargement. Practically that work is also com- pleted, and steam vessels of 240 tons burthen pass, with- out need of transhipment of cargo, equaily from the lower Mississippi and from Lake Superior to the city of New York, the central seat of American commerce, through the frie canal, four hundred miles long, seven feet deep and seventy feet wide, built by that State alone, from her own unaided resources, at a cost of $40,000,000, New York, by the memorial we now present, sock: to propitiate Congress by declaring, as, indeed, it may with the utmost truth, that although she js not really in a fiscal sense a beneficiary of the federal Union, she has generally yielded a liberal support to the policy aid by that government to internal improve- ir States. of exteodin, She respect(ully asks Congress to although local, constitutes in fact only w link in a chain of inland national navigation, ex- tended now 1,600 miles from the Atlantic coast into th» depths of the continent; thut it opens to the general com merce of the United es anew shore line on the St ‘Lawrence and the lakes of more than 6,000 miles, equa to our whole Atlantic water line, with all its indentations that the lake navigation is in no sense local or sectional that it has all boen subjected by the federal governmen ‘to the revenue and the admiralty systems of the Union, and has always been in the time of war the theatre of most brilliant and effective naval triumphs in the establishment of our true Sage independence. Tha this inland navigation is the basis of the commercia uggrandizement of the city of New York, which ha: already poured into the national treasury within tho twon ty years since the Erie canal was brought into effectua ‘Operation, the immeuse sum of $850,000,000; that whil+ that canal annually bears freight of the aggregate valuo of $200,000,000, it is the basis of annual revenue to the 000, United ‘States of more than $40,000,000. The region tri- butary to the Erie Canal is cornientty enlarging, and it is ly drawing freights of cotton from the lower Missia- peg ye og ike trade is augmented by every stroke of the axe the northwestern provinces of British Amorica. New York, in review of the facta, declares that her Erie ‘Canal is @ Work superior in its national operation to any artificial channel of navigation ever constructed in any pny in ancient or modern times, save only the Grand Canal of China. The object of the state, in making this communication, is to make it the foundation of an appeal to Congress to provide for the security and efficiency ot uke harbors of the United States m the two termini of the Erie Canal, on Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, and of such other barbors as are necessarily used in connection wita the inland system of navigation through tho great lakes. NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1859. | Finatty, New York enforoes this claim by the stat» nen that the freights which she bas transported @m her :¢+t ‘pal to and from regions beyond ber own borders, w iu last twenty years, ex twelve hundred mil wus ‘iars; apd that within the next twenty years of Weng certain that the freights to be carried through the Brora’? ~~ will exceed double that immense sum.

Mr. Houston, (opp.) of Texas, introduced a bill to vite the two judicial districts of Texas. The apparent object of the bill is to remove Judge Watrous. In presenting it Mr. Houston tcok occasion to reply to those members of the House of Representatives who hud accused the people of ‘Texas of unusual clamor aguinat Judge Watrous. He pro- ceeded to reveal an alleged conspiracy of which Watrous was an actual member.

On motion of Mr. ReaGay, (adm.) of Texas, is was re- solved that the Committee on the Judiciary be instructed to inquire into the expediency of reporting a bill to celine and provide for the punishment o° polygamy in the Terri tories of the United States, and restrain the people and authorities therein from interference with the federal judi- ciary. INDIAN RESERVATIONS IN KANSAS. ‘The House passed, with amendments, the Senate bill relative to the New York Indian reservation in Kansas. It sets apart three hundred and twenty acres for each indi- vidual Indian who remoyed from New York to the reser. vation assigned them under the treaty of 1838. The Indians are to have a year within which to make theic selections, and pre-emptions are to be secured from the date of settle ment. The money derived from the sale of lands other Uhan those éelected by the Indians is to be paid into the treasury for their benefit. ‘THR PRINTING INVESTIGATION.

RETIRING OF OFFICERS OF THE ARMY AND MARINE CORPS, Mr. FAvIKNER reported a biil to promote the efficiency of the Army and Marme corps, by retiring disabled or in- firm officers. MICHIGAN RAILROADS. Mr. FAULKNER also reported the Senate bill, with an amendment, granting the right of way through the Fort Gratiot Military Reservation to peel poy for railroad par- pores, with the privilege of erecting depots aud work- shops. Passed. DELAY IN THE PUBIC PRINTING. Mr. FAavikyxr reported a resolution instructing the Committee on Printing to inquire into the expediency of devising some plan by which the President's Message and accompanying documents can be earlier printed. He said that although Congress has been in session two months, such documents as are essential to the business of the Committee on Military Atfairs are not yet printed. Mr. Lercner, (adm.) of Va., offered an amendment, which was agreed to, that further inquiry be made whether pay for doubie typesetting may not ‘be avoided where the work is executed by the same person Mr. Hoveroy, (adm.) of Ala., remarked that the Prosi- dent’s Messege and accompanying documents make four volumes, when three-fourths of the whole matter was worthless. The resolution war adopted. ‘The House went into Committee on THR EXECUTIVE, LEGISLATIVE AND JUDICIAL APPROPRIATION BIL, And an earnest debate followed on an item for the reduc- tion of the appropriation for boxes. The question of ‘economy was involved. Mr. Jouy Cocnrayg, (adm.) of N. Y., said the time thus consumed was worth very much more than these boxes, Gentlemen ought tg confine themselves to weightier mat- ters of retrenchment. Mr. Stanton, (opp.) of Ohio, replied he would strike down the army to the peace establisbment of 1820, strik down the navy and curtail the Poet Office expenses, &. Mr. Cocurang reeponded that that would deform, and not reform, the public service. Mr. Crawrorp, (adm.) of Ga., said that there were tw boxes for each member, in which to send home publi documents. Mr. Trurre, (adm.) of Ga., remarked that he had re- ceived only two boxes when he was entitled to eight. Ho would make @ present of the other six to the government, (Laughter.) The five thousand dollars appropriated for the boxes were stricken out. Other small items of the House contingent expenses, such as saddle horses, wagons, &c., were discussed. Mr. Mmtson, (adm.) of Va., remitided gentlemen that at the rate at which they have been procceuing it would re- quire fourteen days to dispose of this bill. Let them trust the Committee of Ways and Means for the details, and de- vote themeelves to larger objects. Mr. Moore, (adm.) of Ala., thought that because these items were small was no reason why retreuchment should not be made. Mr. Wasiury, (opp.) of Me., spoke of the useless con. sumption of time, and suggested important reforms. Mr. Haskrys, (opp.) of N. Y., wonld vote for an addi- tional number of newspapers for distribution among members, for he was certain that more intelligence was required than had been exhibited to-day, for the whole time had been expended in Buncombe speeches. (Laugh- ter.) If he could haye bis way he would incorporate an amendment to prevent laughter while speaking on such a bill ag this. An amendmeat to strike out over twelve thousand dol- lars for newspapers for the use of members was rejected. Mr. Corry, (adm.) of Ala., spoke against the present authorized system of reporting the debates. It acted like ‘ap embargo or probibition on all legitimate discuesion and furnished materials {for books which nobody reads, Mr. Nico1s, (opp.) of Ohio, was for excluding rom the ional Globe all irrelevant specches or essays, and adverted to existing oratorical abuses. The Committes rose without coming to any conclusion ‘on the bill, and the House adjourned. United States Supreme Court. ‘Wasitincton, Feb. 3, 1859. No. 37. Leslie Combs vs. Andrew Hodges ct al.

We have been permitted to make the following extract from a letter, just received by Mr. Cyrus W. Field from a distinguished English engineer, who has never been con nected with the Atlantic Telegraph Company :— I well remember owr convereation when we last saw each other, and J ara as much in earnest on the subjec: now as I was then; for, like yourself, I am confident that the Atlantic telegraph enterprise is destined, under Provi- dence, to be successfully accomplished; and I fool in my mind perfectly eertain that all the difficulties may be easily and certainly overcome. I do not regard the task ng a light one or an easy one, but I know it to bea practi- cable one. I congratuite you most sincerely on even the partial success which attended your last attempt, and the reat change in public opinion which has resulted from it. Nothing can now long del Ye accomplishment. The two ‘worlds cannot do without Fires in Connecticut. Hartrorp, Feb. 3, 1859. Gray’s machine shops, in Bristol, were destroyed by fire this morning, Loss $12,000. The Exchange Hotel, in this city, was also burnt this morning. Most of the furniture was saved, but the build- ing was entirely destroyed, In it wore a shoe store and another store, but the goods in them were mostly saved. The insurance is nearly $7,500, which will nearly cover the loss. Keeney, the Forger, New Lowpon, Conn., Feb. 3, 1859.

He was followed by Mr. Tomlinson, democrat, of New York city, im defence of the citizens of Richmond county, He argued that if crime had been committed, the people of that county were as law abiding as apy others in the State, and indictments against offenders could as readily be found there as in any otber county in the State. The further consideration of the bill was postponed to a future day. A petitioner, a lady it is believed, solicited the Legisia- lature to amend the laws relating to divorces. The com- Plaint refers to the common conduct of discontented hus- bands who resort to othor States and obtain divorces which they could not procure in this State. After sucn divorce, the offending party frequently marries ia some other State, the other party remaining in this State. The party in this State bas no remedy. The petition prays that the deserted party ought not to be compeiled wo go out of the State to get a divorce, to which be or shu ia duly entitted, Mr. Diven, Chairman of the Juciciir Com mittee, Wo which the petition was referred, reported that by we law of this State, where the marriage was contracted, it may be dissolved for causa other than those known to our + and when the parties move imto our State, after the marriage, and one of them returns to the State where the marriage was solemnized, and there proceeds to have the marriage dissulved for causes not recognized by our ‘awa, but that are sufficient by the laws of that State, we buve then uo right to treat that divorce as illegal, or in case of marriage after such divorce, to declare the inter- course adulterous Upon the same principle we are not to determine, when the contract was not made in this State, what act shall work # forfeiture out of the State, By the Jaws of the State where the contract was made, adultery may not annnl it; 2 such case we have no right to declare it Void. It will be found, by careful attention, that our statutes have been i smed to avoid a very embarrassing question of international law that bas arigen in other conn tries, prow:ng out of the law of divorce. Th committee Uherelore report against the amendment of ear divorce jaws. We fear the aggrieved, deserted lady will be com- poled to lay her grievances before some learned judge in the State of Indiana, Senator Ely presented the report of the select committee of the Senate appointed to investigate the sanitary condi- tion of the city of New York. Tbe document is volumi- nous, and: ecems to be prepared with much care, The con tee agree that the city has outgrown its sanitary regulations, and consequently is subject to an excessive amount of Siekncrs and death. The Senator also reported ili to carry out the suggestions and recommendations contained in the report. The Marine Court powers and privileges seem to require something in addition to those provided in the present laws. Secretary Ely this morning introduced a biil, con- taining the following provisions:— Sec. 1 The fifi section of the act, entitled an act in relation Pete mere eooer yy the city of New York, passed July 21, 168, 1s mended, #0 48 to read as: follows:—Any one et a8 TAY be just and proper, in all ucuons + before him; and an appeal _may be taken upon the same from tung Judgment entered uyion the dlrection Of single Justice of safd'court, to the Justices thereof at a general term, i: the fume mahver, and with the like effect as appeals in'the Su- preme Court, from'the decision of wsingle Justice to the general term ; and ' proceedings on any judgment, which may be 80 mppealed from, may, pending such appeal, be Syed in the like mapner,'as i provided by law, for the steymg proceedings on an appeal to the general term of the Supreme Conrt from a judgment entered upon the Girection of a single Justice thereoi; aud the same coste and disbursements sbull be allowed on the appeals hereby author- ‘zed ne on appeals from the Justices’ Courts a the city of New York to the Court of Common Pleus for the city and county of New York.

Senator Johnson introduced another Registry bill this morning. This mukes some half dozen now under con- sideration. If *tillegal voting”? is not prevented in the city of New York it will not be the fault of the Know Nothing members of the Legislature. The republicans are like the sailor’s horse, rather “haulky”’ as yet. The republican financial programme, it is expected, is nearly ready, and will be announced in the course of a day or two. ‘The nomination of Mr. Benton as Auditor of the Canal Department wil! be confirmed on Wednesday, the next executive day. It will be recollected that Gov. Ring nomi- nated Elias W. Leavenworth last year, which nomination was laid over for consideration, upon the motion of demo- cratic Senators. Now the tables are completely turned. No decision yet 1 Senator Mandeville’s case. I hear that a meeting of the committee was held last evening, when his accusers obtained a further hearing of the case for a week. His counsel was ready to proceed with the investigation, but the committee concluded to postpone. Documents have been received here from the General Post Office Department stating that Senator Mandeville has now been appointed Postmaster at Stuyvesant Falls. Will this not put an extinguisher upon all farther investigation? Hon. James J. Reilly this evening, while going down the steps of the Capitol, fell from top to bottom of the steep stone steps, slipping on snow and ice, and had a narrow escape, but was fortunately only slightly injured.

Shore was killed in Santa Clara county, Califor- nia, on the 6th, by Thomas Seals, There was great x citement in consequence, and the military had to be called out to protect the prisoner, who was conveyed to prison at San Jose. Rumors prevailed at San Francisco that three bundred prisoners in the penitentiary had been accidentally poi- soned by the use of some chemical mixed in the flour. There was, doubtless, some truth in the rumor, but the matter was greatly exaggerated. ‘The sloop-of-war Vandalia had left for Guyamas to re- Heve the St. Marys. The Probate Judge of Carson Valley had published a card declaring his intention to perform the duties of his office without favor from any man. A collision between him and the anti-Mormons was regarded as inevitable. General Kibbeo was stMl pereceuting the war against the Indians in the north with great success. His troops bad killed quite a number and taken over two hundred prisoners. The Preaidential Question in Connecticut.

It was not marked, of course, by that precision of style and highly polished elocution of the written lectures of Lola Montez; but the grasp of his subject was broader and stronger, and his treatment of it full of the evidences of his twenty years of European travel and observation. His anecdotes and de- acriptions of men and events were related with the highest dramatic effects, which, in connection with his fine voice, and his splendid decorations as a Count-Palatine, Cheva- lier, &c., quite captivated his hearers, especially the la dies. The dollar admission and the stormy night resulted in a thin audience; but we can say that twenty-five cents a fine evening would fill the house. Regarding a iblic lecture as a matter of amusement and practical in- struction, the Count in this business presents a very fa vorable contrast to any of the humdrum, pedantic and old Miss Nancy lecturers of the day, whether he be ac- cepted as Count Joannes or as plain George Jones.

On that day each member of the National Guard will be presented with a handsomely bound vol taining the history of Mount Vernon, and wfull a the visit to Richmond, also a complete history of the re- giment from its organization to the present day. The book isgotup by @ gentleman of this city at au expense of $5,000. After the presentation, the officers of the regiment will give a grand banquet. The Order | of United Americans bave invited Hon.
