tee and all the speakers ov the administration side, thy the acquisition of Cuba is of geographical and political ne- ceasity. The doctrine of political necessity bad been ia all times the plea of tyrants. Geographical necessity \- Jess intel)gibie, and the law of gravitation was cited vw eke it out, Why did thus law of political gravitatio: ‘effest only the possessions of feeble States, and not those of Great Britaip, for instance? Cuba, he admitted, was a convenient island, but ty seize it for that reason is the doctrine of the highway—of might over right, Mr. Hale here read extracts from Jefferson, Adams, Ciay, Everett and others, relied on to prove the necessity of ite acqui- sition, to show that their opinions were qualified by con- tingencies of committees report. He says there are but three alternstives for Cuba—first, for a ‘oreign power to have it, which we won’t permit; second, independence, which is impossible; third, to become ours, which is in- evitable. These are curious siternatives. The firat cannot be permitted; the second impossible; the third inevitable. He thought, that in the presvat condition of the treasury, it was useless to expend thirty millions to bring about an inevitable resuit, The report says, ‘let Great Britain, France, and Russia pursue this course of aunexation in Fast, we wit! look on with indifference, and claim the game privilege on this Continent.” ‘This reminded bim of a Latin line, “Hanc eteam damusque petimus.”” He would ‘construe it thus: we will let Eoglank, France and Russia have their right, &.—petimus—when we go robbing on our own account—when this beautiful island, which, under the force of political gravitation is approaching us s0 that we have hardly vir- tue to keep her off, they will look on “if not wi favor, at least with indifference.”’ Further, the commit- tee illustrate by the trope of a ripe apple ready to drop from the tree, which suggests the idea of it from the bough to acceleratn that inevitable result. ir. Hale ‘then went into a ‘igcussion of the slave trade, and said that if there were oo higher destiny for the human race than to make them sugar planters, Mr Benjamin was rigit and emancipation was a failure But he read from numerous extracts from officia documents to show that emancipated negroes were in- creasing in social cevelopements. He also argued that the acquisition of Cuba would not stop the African slave trade, He was not at ali sparing of sarcasms on the de- mocratic party, an¢ concluded by saying that the scheme ‘was a gigantic appeal to natioual avarice and lust of power. When history sbali come tocompare how the United States and Spain have kept their treaty stipulations towards each other, it will be seen we have nothing to pride ourselves on. ver, although believing in the freedom of re- Igious belief or unbelief to the fullest extent, he could not with to see a whole people come into the Union whose religious faith is so constituted ag to be adverse to its best interests. He was convinced a republic can best and ‘only be maintained on the principles of Protestant liberty. ‘He concluded by expressing the opinion that Cuba is not a ripe apple, but like the apple of the poet, that brought death unto the world and ail its woes, Mr. Buysamin replied to some of the points inthe re- marks of Mr. Crittenden and Mr. Hale. He considered this rathor the age of abuse of weakness than the abuse of power, and defended the Paraguay and all similar ex- peditions having for their object the protection of our citi- zens. Mr. CrirrenpEn reviewed the points in Mr. Benjamin’s reply. Mz. Tuomrsox, of Ky., obtained the floor, and the Se- nate theu, at a late hour, adjourned, House of Representatives. Wasninaton, Feb. 15, 1859. Mr. Grover, member of the House, from Oregon, was qualified, and took his seat, ‘THE PRINTING INVESTIGATION, Mr. Gkorce Tayzor, (adm.) of N. ¥., reported a pre- amble setting forth that John Cassin, of Philadelphia, ‘having been duly summoned, has refused to appear and give testimony before the Select Committee to investigate the accounts of Mr. Seaman, late Superintendent of Pub- lic Printing, concluding with a resolution that the Speaker be directed to issue his warrant to the Sergeant-at-Arms to arrest the emid Cassin wherever he is to be found and bring him forthwith before the bar of the House to answer for contempt of its authority. The resolution was passed. PALARIES OF PUBLIO OFFICERS. Mr. Crawrorp, (adm.) of Ga., asked, but failed to obtain ‘consent, to introducea bill to repeal all laws passed since the 1st of July, 1860, which increase the salaries of public officers, and the salarics to be paid in conformity to the laws previous to that time, The act now proposed to be continued in force until the annual receipts from the du- ties received, under the law of March 3, 1847, shall be equal to the amount annually appropriated by Congress, -and no longer. ‘THR RECAPTURED AFRICANS, Mr. Dowpm1, (adm.) of Ala., ineffetually sought to introduce a resolution calling on the President to furnish information showing the amount expended on account of ‘the recaptured Africans, and how far the republic of Li- Deria was interested in these expenditures, the cost of maintaining the African squadron, the number of deaths of officers and men connected therewith, and the number of Africans restored, &c. ‘THE INDIAN APPROPRIATION BILL. ‘The Hovse went into committee on the Senate’s amend- ments to the Indian Appropriation bill. Mr. Stantoy, (opp.) of Onio, suid that Mr. Garnett yes- terday contrasted the expenditures under Mr. Fillmore’s whig administration with those under Mr. Buchanan’s during the year, Ey, to the prejudice of the present administration. had congratulated himseif that he ‘ad at last found a genuine and sincere apostie of re. trenchment and reform; but the gentieman-from Vir- ginia, in his next breath, endeavored to throw the respon- sibility of the largely increased expenditures on the mino. rity, with the ussistance ofa few on the democratic side. Under thore circumstances the idea of his carrying away the mins of the democratic party into the wilderness was altogether out of the question. It had occurred to him (Stanton) that conteesion was tho first step toward genu- ine repentance; but if the majority are not responsible, the country has I@le to hope for from democratic quar: ters. The appropriation biils are returned from the Se- nate uniformly laden witn additional millions, aud the House is compelled to acquiesce, as they come from the Committee of Conference, or leave the administration without the means for carrying on the government. Ho had been informed that some men connected with the navy yards never go there excepting to get their pay, and that on election days they serve as shoulder hitters, and perform such other duties as the exigencies of party re- quire. This is,no doubt, one of the reasons of the in- crease of expenditures of which the gentleman from Vir- ginia complained. They had increased as the exigencies ‘Of the democratic party iucreased, and to those expendi- tures the gentleman's party owed its success. If he wants ‘an economical administration of the goveroment, he must Tay the axe at the root of this corrupt tree, aud not merely op off the branches, for they would spring out with in- creased vigor. So long as the expenditures are made the ‘spoils of the victor and the reward of party services, so long will they continue to mcrease. It is said that music has charms to soothe a savage, bat when discordant, grates burebly. While the President indulges in the 80- norous notes of Old Hundred the Secretary of the Treasury plays Yankee Doodle. This, as Dogberry says, is most tolerable, and not to be endured. It'makes confusion ‘worge confounded in the democratic church, which is in a melancholy condition There ie uomistakeable evidence of ite speedy overthrow, bot merely in the non-essentials, but the fundamental articles of the democratic creed. He referred to the conflicting views of the President and “Secretary of the Treasury relative to the mode of adjust- ing duties, alluded to the frauds from false invoices in valuation, and said if the customs had been collected un- der an honest system, forty per centum more would have been recoived into the treasury. Kight or nine millions ‘would be sufficient to meet the current expenses. There should be a radical change from ad valorem to specific duties for the purpose of opta ning sufficient revenue with the principle of discrimination, for the encouragement of domestic mapufacture. We, he said, ask uo more—we will take pothing lees. EVENING SESSION. Mr. Morris, (opp Jgpf Til., in condemning the President, ‘asked whether they'Bhould cower before his advancing power, and suffer him to crush out every vestige of the nation’s manhood without offering resistance. He had aimed a biow at the freedom of elections by interforing dn the domestic affairs of the sovercign State of Illinois, Offices bad been virtually sold to venal politiciaus and re- ‘wards offered for treason. A few Judases Were found to sell themselves for thirty pieces of silver, aud they were ‘worth less than that. Outrages and tyrannical acts, vio- lative of every principle of right, should not be longer ‘tolerated. If the couree heretofore pursued is to Ye followed up in Iilinois, and the people thereof are not to have a ‘voice in their home affairs, it was true the administra. tion should bave a Roland for an Oliver. He (Morris) thad never dreamed when at home that his goveroment seoreted the evidencg on which public officers are re- moved; but it was reserved to him, on reaching Washing- ton, to'learn that our Executive Department is a star chamber, for it conceals from the public the charg which a man is tried, convicted and removed from without giving the least opportunity to repel the aceu- gations against him; and such conduct is to be dignified by the high character of the executioner. He complained that the Post Office Department had refused to let him take copies of the charges against ex-Postmaster Parsons, and said that the government had committed a larceny on Parsons’ reputation, by creating the suspi- cion be had been unfaithiu! to his trast, Mr. Morris men- tioned other similar caves to show that removals and ap- pointments had been mado in total disregard of the wis! of the people. Where creatures could not be found in Tilinois to fill offices, vacated vy the removal of good men ‘and democrats, they were imported, and some of them did not bring good moral characters with them. If a mail Tobbery wag committed, cion immediately attaches to some government oflicer, Among the appointments to high office in Tlinois, was a man notoriously a dofaulter, and who deserved confinement in prison rather than a place of trust. Some of the came class have since beeu romoted. He attributed these things to tho President's Penrose ferocity and imbecility and character, vaturally aristocrmtic, his acts being dosigned to strike down Douglas, the brave and hervic chieitain of the democratic rly. Pate, Rover, fone. of Vt., said if wo have suffered so many insults from Spain as the President alleges, he in- stead of asking: an appropriation to purchase Cuba, would have better discharged his duty by laying before Congress the facts to aid intelligent action ov such moasures as ‘would vindicate our national lionor and afford the protec: tion which our citizens demand. We condemned tho posi- ‘tions assumed ia tho President, saying, among other Ahings, the latter had fallen into a very grave error if ho su) that by the acquisition of Cuba the appression of the re trade would follow as a result, the island was to be secured because of its contiguity and of natural right, Jamaica, México, Contral America, ‘and the Russian and British possessions might be claimed on similar grounds, If the President wa better fool. ing with Spain, he wili refrain Crom further attempis to purchase Cubs) for she knows wo have not money enoagh to pay for the isiand, and all the world knows that wo do not need it, A large majority of the neople were pledged to resist the further extension of slavery, and will never Gonsent that new slave Statos shall be formed ont of fo- reign territory purchased with the common treasure of the mnt ur. Saaix, (opp.) of N. HL, said in eight years the am NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1859. Dual expenditures had increaged from forty-eight to eighty millions of dollars. There being no extraordinary cir comstances for this, it must be attributed to corrupt avd wanton extravagance and nothing else. Men who want fat jobs besiege this Capitol, and the army of office seekers: is greater thaa the frogs of Egypt. The rule of action ins been, “the President wants my vote, and I want bis . Iwill vote as he wis . aod be will give mo what I want.” Twenty millions have been spent ia #ix years in carrying electious, burying the dew, caring for the wounded, and cheating the people generally. Mr. Wanp, (adm.) of N. Y., reviewed the commerce of ‘be world, and spoke of tne necessity of interoceauic communication by means of a ship cansl, and regarded the Straits in New Granada as the route which seience can overcome and render its prosecution and completion prac- le. ‘The committee here rose, and the House adjourned.

Our Spectal Albany Despatch. THE HARLEM RAILROAD CHARTER—THE LOBBY IN- VESTIGATION—TRE REGISTRY BILL—ABOLISHING THE OFFICE OF CORPORATION COUNSEL, BTC. Atnany, Feb, 15, 1859. When the bill for extending the charter of the Harlem Rajlroad came up in the Senate this morning for the final vote, Senator Sloan moved to strike out the following clause in the third section, relating to running the New Haven cars over a portion of the Harlem road:—“And to permit the use thereof, by the New York and New Haven Railroad Compavy, to the same point’’—that is, Forty- second street. Senator Sloan remarked that he was not in favor of legislating in any respect for the New Haven company so long as i's directors and managers refuse to recognize their liabilivee:. innocent persons on account of stock issued by their President. ‘The motion prevailed, and then the bill passed—21 to 4. The committee engaged in the examination of witnesses in order to bring out facts whether the charter of the Albany bridge was obtained through fraud and corrup- tion, are resisted step by step by the lobby. Yesterday a lawyer appeared before the committee and assumed to interrogate a witness, The chairman of the committee informed the lawyer that the witness was discharged for the day, consequently no further action could be enter- tained at the present sitting. This morning the aforesaid lawyer, through one of the Senators, made complaint to the Senate that he had been deprived of the privilege of examin- ing the witness. The Senator gave the name of the counsel. lor, who acknowledged before the Standing Committee that he “appeared in behalf of the lobby.” The Chairman, Mr. O. B. Wheeler, stated to the Senate that the committee had not prevented the attendance of counsel. The Senate then adopted a resolution instructing the Lobby Investi- gating Committee to allow any party implicated to be as- sisted with counsel, and cross-examine witnesses, in ex- tenuation of any matters chargod upon him. During the examination yesterday before the committee, the fact was elicited that money was paid toa member of the Legislature as a consideration for his vote in favor of the passage of the Allbany Bridge bill. Now for the names of a portion of the members of a former Legislature who have been bribed, and the names of the lobbyiles who furnished the money, and how much of this species of corruption was employed to accomplish that interesting object. ‘Very soon after this procceding was completed, and when Senator 0. B. Wheeler was absent from the Senate chamber, Senator Loveland introduced a resolution ask- ing for a select committee to examine the allegations made a few days since by Senator Wheeler, the chairman of the lobby investigation. What we understood Mr. W. to say, was substantially this: ‘‘He had evidence in his sion which he intended to communicate to the Se nate throvgh his committee, which went to implicate a member of the Legislature in the attempt to suppress the lobby investigation, by the offer of a large amount of money.” Senator Loveland started the lobby investiga- tion. Senator Loveland is now a member of a select com- mittee, appointed under his own resolution, investigating the conduct of the Chairman of the Lobby Committee. as Senator Ely most aptly remarked to-day, ‘‘Where there is 80 much smoke there must bea little fire.” And who is scorched will soon be known to the public. ‘The bill refunding ex Governor King the expenses of rea at Quarantine was passed in the Senate this morn- ing. ‘The Senate sso ey a joint resolution adjourning a week from Thuraday, the 17th, to Thursday the 24th inst. The Tiouse will agree. A large number of members living at a distance have not visited their homes since the com. mencement of the session. ‘A large number of notices, bills, resolutions, &c., &c., were brought forward in the House of Assembly during ‘the session last evening. Mr. Conkiing announced one to p atnd for the collection of moneys paid to maintain ps on Staten Island. This is. an important bill. It pro- vides that if the Supervisors of Richmond county do not impose by tax the amount necessary to reimburse the’ State, that then the Comptroller shall be authorized to sell at public ‘auction any property belonging to the county to raise the amount. This bill, introduced by Mr. Conkling, Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, denomi- nated Chancellor of the Exchequer, has a semi-official bearing upon its face. It is just that the county should pay all damage incurred by the “incendiaries; but it is very doubiful whether the Legislature has any’ right to single out any particular town, city, county or locality, and compel it to cancel the indebtedness incurred by the cow. ardice, foolishness or spitefulness of any State officer, be he Governor or any otber officer. Senator Diven will’ see that bis party do not commit such an unrighteous act. A Dill introduced by Mr. Shepard, of St. Lawrence, to arrest the issuing of Canal Commissioners’ drafts, should be passed into a law with all possible despatch. There are now over two millions of these illegal debts against the State now in the hands of bankers, for which interest is provided, and if this practice is not arrested an addi- tioval amount equally as large will be created, through the collusion of contractors, engineers and commissioners, during the next season. Shepard’s bill provides that the Auditor shail notify the Commissioners when the funds provided for enlarging the canals are exhausted; that after receiving such notice the Commissioners shall issue no drafts to contractors; and if this injunction is disre- garded, then sach disobedievt Commissioner shall be fined and punished, We hope Mr. Shepard will ask unanimous congent to put this bill upon its third reading immediately , call for the aye: «l nays, aud then will be seen the strength of the canal jcbby in resisting it. Mr. 8. has proved thus far a faithful treasury watchman as Chair- man on Claims, and we desire to eee him pash his anti- canal draft bill’ with vigor and speedy success. ‘The Registry bill—that everlasting football—was kicked and cofled about the Asserobiy chamber this morning, from the republicans to the Know Nothings, and vice versa, ‘without the least regard for the feelings of the bantling. Mr, Costello, member from One! '» county, republican ond naturalized citizen, wanted th bill so shaped that there should be the same liberty allowed naturalized voters as there is intended to be given native voters on appear- ing before the Registry Board; but a large majority of the House refused to grant any such equalization, He then distinetly told his republican friends that the Registry law would greatly injure their party. Mr. Morris, Chair- man of the Judiciary Committee, andone of the most in- telligent and influential republican members, very car. nesily and strenuously opposed all registry laws for the rural districts. Mr. M. seldom enters into any debate unless he has something to say, and when he does speak bis centiments fall deeply upon the minds of his brother members, It is evident be is nota party to the agree- ment with the Know Nothings, that they ‘should have a Registry !aw for the State,’ in payment for their votes at the last election. The bill now under discussion cannot pass into a jaw—that's settled Major Scholefield, of the Assembly, keeps chasing up the Regents of the University. He introduced a bill abolishing that “ancient and venerable’’ instivution. If the Major succeeds with one-half the good luck he uniformly does im traversing the regious of John Brown's tract in search of pature’s tenants in those wild woods and silver stream- lets, then the Regents may as well consider themsolves disbanded without further resistance, But we caunot commend the Major’s plan of creating another board of public offices, cepecialiy in the “present dilapidated state of the public funds.” Mr. Opdyke introduced the following bill, which creates @ new corporation officer and discharges George H. Purser from Corporation Attorney :— AN ACT TO AUTHORIZE THR APPOINTMENT OF A LAW OFFICER FOR THE CITY AND COUNTY OF NEW YORK, TO BE CALLED THE SOLICITOR OF THK CITY TREASURY, AND IN'RELATION TO THE COMPENSATION OF THE COUNSEL OF THE CORPORATION OF THAT erry. r of the eity and connty of New tection 1 The Comptrol York sball, immediately after the passage of this act, and from time to time thereafter a# required by this act, nominate iu writing to the Mayor of said city, a competent person, of the degree of counsellor at law of the Supreme Court, to be called the Koliclor of the City Treagury, Sec. 2.

Much opposition was made to the motion, and several Propositions to postpone were voted down. Messrs Diven, Hubbell, Loveland and others pressed the resolution, on the ground that it was more proper to investigate the action of their owg members than that of a past Legislature, Assembly. ALnany, Feb. 15, 1869. The Registry law bill came up as the special order. Mr. Morus, (rep.) chairman of the Judiciary Commit- toe, moved a substitute for the whole bill giving autho- rity to Inspectors of Election to question voters as to whether they have received any money, promises or other advantages for their votes, and making stringent rules for the punishment of bribery, both in the briber and recipient. Messrs. Law, Spencer and Tothill opposed the substi- tute as not having apy relation to a Registry law. Messrs, Warner, Morria and Loomis advocated the sub- stitute, and denounced the Registry law as unconstitu- tional, unjust and inoperative. Mr. Looms (rep.) denied that the republican party were committed to any such measure. Doring the debate several motious to report proziess were voted down. The debate on the subject was continued at great length, with considerable warmth on both sides, when finally Mr. Opdyke’s substitute was voted down, Fight in the Indiana Senate.

His clerk, Mr. Johnson, was at Tampa, and engaged the steam- er to touch at Point Arrassas on her return, and there take on board the Arkansas delegation of friendly Indians, numbering twenty, and all the Seminoles who might be collected at the rendezvous, whose numbers, it was thought, would equal sixty, men, women and children. Col. Rector’s interpreter, Sampson, came passenger in the Magnolia. He was formerly owned by Col. Gad Hum- pbrey, of St. Avgurtine. During the Seminole wars he was four times « prisoner among the Indians, and then learved their language. He was considered of so grea value that the United States government purchased him from Col. Humpbrey and held him as an interpreter for some years. His freedom was given him not long since, end be now declares his intention of becoming a citizen of this piace. He gives us a short account of a journey into the Indian country, made with Captain McNeil andtwo of the Arkansas delegation, Sampson being the interpreter for tbe party in a!) their talks with the Seminoles. Captain McNeil was ordered by Colonel Rector to pe ceed as far south as the Kissimmi river, and, if possible, have a talk with the Tallabassee tribe. ’ The party consist- ed of Captain McNeil, a wagover, Kotsuchie and a nephew of White Cloud, friendly Indians, aud Sampson, the inter- preter They left Tampa soon after Christmas, and were a week in reaching Buflulo ford, on the Peau creek, @ sta- tion near the hunting grounds of the Tallahassee tribe. Near the ford they came upon an extensive fleld, planted with potatoes, corn and pumpkins. ‘The ground bore marks of recent tillage, and the party were satified that Todiave were in the neighborhood; so they attached a white flag and an Indian frock to a po'e, and placed it in ‘a couspicuous part of the field, when they left immedi- ately for their camp across the ford. The next day the friendly Indians went to the field and found the frock gone. we frock was sdved to the flag to assuse the tribe taat friendly Indians were with the whites. In the place of the frock they left eeveral plugs of tobacco and some pipes, and to inform them that in three days they would returb, th: y tied to the tobacco three short sticks. Kotsuchie and White Cloud's nephew kept a bright look- out in the vicinity of the fleld, and on the second day were rejoiced to bear the report of a gun, and soon after a whoop, which latter they returned with interest, making the woods ring. A young Indian came rapidly up and conducted the two Seminoles to the sub- chief of the Tallahassees, who is called the Ranging Deer. They found bim on the brink of the creek under the shade ofacyprees, accompanied by three stout warriors well armed with rifles and double-barrelled guns, and comfort. ably clad. e talk was short. Rarging Deer said his tribe would never leave their native land, Ho would, however, meet Capt. McNeil and listen to what he had to say. The following day was ap- pointed for the interview. But the day passed, and ano- ther day, but no Tallahaseees mace their appearance. The friendly Indians were suspicious that treachery was intended, and they proposed to Captain McNiel to go back to Tampa, suggesting tbat Ranging Deer and his chief, Crazy Tiger, were deceiving them, and would probably attack them if they remained any longer in their territory. £0 Capt. McNiel gave orders to return, and crossing Buffa- to ford, they encamped for the night, intending to leave at break of day for the settlements; but soon after dark who should comé up to the opposite bank of the stream but Ranging Deer bimee'f, unattended and ready to treat with the captain. White Cloud’s nephew and the wagoner, with mules, were sent back to bring in the three warriors, that they might be witnesses to the arrangements of their chief. They ‘were found and brought into the camp that night, and the next morning at an early hour the palaver commenced. Capt. McNiel told them plainly that they would not be allowed to remain unmolested by the whites— that quarrels between them and the whites would be frequent, and that soon open warfare would occur, and they would be exterminated; but if they would emigrate, he was authorized by the President of the United States to offer to every warrior $500 in cash, a rifle, a com hunting outfit, clothing and provisions ‘to last them one esr, and to every woman and child $100 would be given, Benides provisions for a year. Ranging Deer said thai if his chief, Crazy Tiger, his sis- ter and his brother-in-law would consent to emigrate he would also agree to go, and in twenty-two days would be (le Myers with the whole tribe, of which he was sub- chief. Captain McNeil furnished him with a passport, to use should be meet any of the whites while collecting his band, and then the party separated. Sampson retarned to Colone!
