He maintains that this bill sdoes not make an absolute donation to aciual settlers, but that the price is so small that it can scarcely be called a Bale. He quotes largely from his veto message on the Dy taxes on the people, either to States or individuals. The ‘effect of this bill, he says,on the public revenue must Steady but rapid strides to their present condition of and prosperity. They have been guided in progress by the fixed principle of pro the equal rights of all, whether they rich or poor. No agrarian sentiment has ever sprevailed among them. The honest, poor man, by fru- gality and industry, can, in any part of our country, ac- “quire a competence for himself and his family, and in doing this be feels that he eats the bread of indepen- dence. He desires no charity, either from the govern. ment or from his reighbors. This bill, which proposes ‘€ogive him land at an almost nominal price out of the q ‘of the government, will go far to demoralize ‘the peopie and repress this noble spirit of independence. Tt may introduce among us those pernicious social theo- ries which have proved so disastrous in other countries. {AE FRENCH AND ENGLISH DIFFICULTY WITH THE CHINESE. Private advices have been received from an intelligent genticman residing at Shanghae, brought by the last mail from Europe to a gentleman who was not long since Min- {eter to China, giving some important particulars respect. ing the condition of affairs in China, growing out of the contemplated expedition against that empire by England and Franes. PR Great preparations are being made by the Chi nese, and they are confident of their ability to resist the invaders. They were threatened with internal trow bics, which caused considerable alarm, but the impression prevailed that they would not be of a serious character, and would be easily suppressed. Tt was already manifest in business and commercial cir. ‘eles that the anticipated troubles would have a depressing Influence and retard business generally. Matters, how ever, were progressing satisfactorily, so far as American Citizeus were concerned, and every disposition was evinced Dy the Chinese to adhere to and carry out the provisions of the treaty with the United States. Many were confident that something would yet be done Qo settle matiers between England and China, and thus PvVert the impending disuxters. APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE NAVY. Congress bas seen fit to cut down the appropriations: seked for by the Secretary of the Navy to eo small a ‘Pgure that it will almost eutirely preciade the repairing of vessels now uni or sea service, which are absolutely re- quired for various stations. It is very unwise legislation on the part of Congress. The Secretary regrets this the fore owing to the present complicated state of affairs in ‘the neighborhood of the Fast India squadron, as well as at “Other points where American citizens and property require protection, and where it is very probable all our availa- fie naval force may be needed. ‘THR STRAMER SEMINOLE. t ‘The statement (hat the United States steamer Seminole, Which has been ordered to the Brazilian station, is unfit for sea service, is not substantiated by the facts. Two of the most efficient constructors in the service have recently qmade a thorough examination of this vessel, and have re. ported to the Navy Department that she is every way ‘The Senate in executive session last night confirmed about forty nominations, military, naval and civil, among them Major Fmory, First regiment of cavafry, to be Lieutenant Colonel by Brevet, for meritorious and die.

Jewett, of Bullaio. ‘THK BOSTON POST OFFICE LOCATION. A strong eftort has beeu made here this seseion by the real estate owners of State etr vt, Boston, to keep the Fost Office. The lonz agony about the location of the Boston Post Office is over. Mr. Atley, of Massachusetts, on the part of the House Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads, to whom the subject was specially referred decided, that the present suap judgment law of the last Congress, induced by a lobby paid for by real estate owners of State street, Boston, should remain ia force until March 4, 1961, compelling Prstmaster Capen to remain in State street. The Post Office Committee authorized Mr. Alley to report a bill to the House embracing his views. He did so on Friday, and it was referred to the Committee of the Whole, from which burial there will never be any resurrection. In the Senate Mr. Yulee, from the Post Office Committee, has reported that the charge of the State street memorialists that the change of the office from State to Sumner street Was to be made from improper and corrupt reasons, is not sustained; that the indemnity of $12,600, paid to secure government against loss by State street parties, was paid upon assurances that they would sustain their allegations, which they have rot done, and hence should aot be re- leased. The committeefask leave to be discharged from further consideration of the subject. At the expiration of ‘this session of Congress, to-morrow, Mr. Capen will be at liberty to remove again, under instruction from the Post Office Department , to his new office in Summer street. ‘THE SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC PRINTING. The report that the President intends removing Mr. Hart, the Superintendent of Public Printing, for fear he will purebase Wendell’s printing establishment for the government, is said to be a mistake. The services of Mr. Hart are too highly appreciated by the President to induce hm to think of such a thing. ‘THE POST OFVICE DEFICIENCY BILL. ‘The disagreeing amendment upon which the fate fof.the Post Office Deficiency bill hangs, is for the restoration of the mail service discontinued by Postmaster Holt. It is said the Senate reconsidered the vote whereby it agreed to the amendment to prevent the Postmaster Gene- ral from resigning his place in the Cabinet. It is possible the question may be settled before the House adjourns to- morrow by a committee of conference; but it is doubtful, as the House will insist upon restoration, while the Senate difficulty stares the Senate in the face. Should the Senate recede and agree to the House amendment restoring the service, it is probable that the President will vetogthe bill rather than havg a rupture in his Cabinet. Among the many valuable items in the bill is the cele- brated E. K. Collins claim. The President yesterday sent for Mr. Colfax, Chairman of the House Committee on Post Offices, and urged fthe passage of some bill authorizing thé Postmaster General to contract temporarily for an ocean mail service to Cali- fornia. Mr. Colfax laid the matter before the House, and, as heretofore stated, Mr. Sherman presented a bill autho- rizing an extension of the contract till the 4th of March at the present rate, which is only $50,000 per year, besides the Panama Railroad charge. Horace F. Clark said the steamers would not take the contract at that amount. Frank Biair and others insisted that the Department could carry the entire mat! overland under the present law, by improving the St. Joseph and Placerville route up to a daily line. As a two-thirds vote was required to introduce the bill, and a majority voted against a suspension of the rales, it failed, and is now beyond resuscitation, It may be considered certain that the Post Office Defi- ciency bill is lost, as there is no probability that a quo- rum will be present to-morrow in the House to grant another conference with the Senate on that subject, and even were this accorded, the bill would not receive the President's approval should the clause for the restoration of the suspended mail service be retained. Such is the present condition of the questiod. The total expenses for six months included in that bill amount to about seven millions. Congress having passed a special law appropriating the postages to the contractors for the quarter ending with March, being a little over two mil- lions, they will have to wait for the remainder of the amount due until the next session of Congress, ‘The Post Route bill may also be regarded as lost. As it left the House it provided for various reforms, such as the transmission of seeds, cuttings and blanks at a cent an ounce, and for dealers to send packages of newspapers at pro rata rates. Fear is expressed to-night that there will not be a quo- rum in the House to-morrow. Ifso, the Post @ffice Defi- ciency bill will fail surely. It is currently repotted that the government desire the bill to fail, from the fact that there is very little money in the Treasury, and the thir- teen million contained in the bill will beso much saved for other purposes. Had Congress granted a loan instead of only authorizing the reissuing of shin to re. deem the issue of Inst Congress, there would be no desire to prevent the passage of the bill in question. ‘THE CIVIL AND MISCELLANEOUS APPROPRIATION BILL. It was thought several days ago that the President would veto the civil or miscellaneous appropriation bill, owing to the provision that Capt. Meigs shall superintend the disbursements of ha'f a million for the completion of the Washington Aqueduct, a constitutional question being involved by Congress undertaking to control the move- ‘ments or employment of this army officer; but as this bill makes appropriations to the extent of abont five millions for a lighthouse establishment, coast survey, &c., and as a veto would render an gxtra session necessary. the Presi- dent will approve it, with a protest against the clause in controversy. INDIAN SUPERINTENDENT. The President has appointed Benjamin Davies, of Mis- souri, Superintendent of Indian Affairs in Utah, vico Jacob Forney, of Pennsylvania, removed. George Saunders will be removed to-morrow. Trial Trip of the Pawnee. Pwapetrma, June 24, 1860. The United States steamer Pawnee, which left the navy yard on the 18th inet. for a six days’ cruise, returned rather prematurely yesterday afternoon, at four o'clock, in consequence of sume derangement ia her machinery. In all other respects she had proved herself a first class sea going yeasel. Her machinery will be examined and readjusted by Messrs. Reaney, Neafie & Co., who built it, and she will goon another trial trip about the close of this week, preparatory to her sailing for Vera Cruz. Fatal Affray in West Springfield, Mass.

Political Intelligence. ~ ‘ResiGNaTion ov Buit.—Some of the Southern journals in- timate that an effort will be made to induce Hon. John Bell to resign his position as the candidate of the consti- tutional Union party, in order that the Southern opposi- tion may unite upon old San Jacinto, of Texas. They have failed, they say, to work up sufficient enthusiasm upon Bell to induce the party to hold together. The only or- ganization that may now be termed a fixed fact is the black republicans, and with old Abe Lincoln as their stan- dard bearer, running against a Northern democratic can- didate, a Southern secession man and the opposition di- vided between Bell and Houston, the former’s chances of success would be next to certain. ‘Lacon1¢ Denar tx Cooress.—An indignant member of the House of Representatives rises in bis seat and saysi— “Do you know, sir, for what we sit here” To which a disgusted member replies:— Yes, sir: for threo thousand dollars a year.”’ Upon which the Committce of the Whole rises and re. Ports progress, Back Rervsicasse rx New Exctaxp.—There is no dis- guising the fact that all the efforts of the leaders of the black republican party in the Eastern States to manufac- ture enthusiasm and rally the masses upon Old Abe have Proved futile. The Chicago nominations did not suit at first, and they cannot, it seems, be rendered acceptable. The Springfield Republican, which has probably more in- fluence in the party than any other paper in New England, says:— “Republicanism is so dead that, asa party, w: really lack the stimulus to a healthy excitement.” Brack Rerveuicanism ty Missouri.—It is very eviden: that the small show that black republicanism, under th cloak of opposition, has made in Missouri is about dyin out. Gen, Wilson, who was selected as their standard bearer, positively declines to run as their candidate fo Governor, and it is said that the party will find it very difficult to prevail upon any man who has the least promi- nence in the State to accept of the position long evough to be voted upon. Coxrtaist AwoxG tix Farurrs.—The farmers whose lands are located in the vicinity of cities and villages are complaining bitterly over the loss of their rail fences. In ‘some localities the fields have been literally stripped of every rail upon them. The rails are used by wide awake clubs as arguments in favor of the success of old Abe Lincoln. Divisions tv tar Camp.—There are three factions in the black republican party in Cook county, which embraces the city of Chicago, Diinots. The first is under tho leader- ship of John Wentworth, and is called the black repub- licans proper; the second is known as the flat iron faction, which is led by Governor Jadd; and the third is called the agricultural republicans, who are located principally in the rural districts. Moxe AnocMents.—Arguments as plenty as black- berries are every day offering to establish Lincoln’s claim to the Presidential chair. The last have presented them- selves in the shape of “ music for the piano,’ and they are called “ The Wigwam Grand March,” ‘ The Railsplit- ter’s Polka,’ “ Honest Old Abe’s Quick Step,” and the song of the “ Handsome Man.” Caxpipate For GorErvor 1x Frortpa.—Oo!l. John MeMil- lis, the democratic candidate for Governor of Florida, is one of the delegates who seceded from the Charleston Convention, and is a Georgian by birth, residing a long time at Columbus, where he was at one time candidate for Congress, and living subsequently at Mobile and in New Orleans. Cayproate ror Lrevresast Goverxor iv MicHiGAN.— James Birney, the republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor in Michigan, is the son of the late James G.

Lire oF Laxcoux.—The telegraph had barely finished the announcement of the nomination of Old Abe at Chicago, when his life and “services” were issued from the press at one dollar a copy. Somebody who has read the pamphlet gives the substance of it as follows:— Old Abe is born.

On Saturday Dr. Kawaski, Sano Kawaye and Sakamoto, applied to Major Leland to engage hii to escort them to and Sakamoto, on account of slight colds, preferred fol- lowing the example of their compatriots, who remained at home, going about the hotel but little, and passing the ‘day in smoking and sleeping. The ldcetor was taken, to De. Chuplurchurch, agit tened very attentively to an excellent sermon, in which the Japanese treaty and its results were slightly intro- duced. The doctor was much pleased with the sermon and requested that he should next be taken to an Amori- can funeral, a wedding and a law-suit, that he might com- pare our manner of conducting upon these occasions with ‘that of the Japanese. The doctor had a wooden leg present. ed to him yesterday, a bonnet for his litte daughter and a pair of shoes for his wife. Upon the return of the doc- tor to the hotel three ,of the “y, accompanied by one of the artists, visited Trinity Church, between the services, examined the ope ‘and the chimes, and took sketches of New York and the surrounding cities and villages. as seen from tho spire, whieh was the highest the Japanese had ever seen. ‘The Battery was then visited, and even | some remarks highly derogatory to George Law's | extension and its appearance, the part; ied to Jones’ wood, where partook of a collation, drank champagne avd lager, allowed the curious Teutons to examine their clothing, and fired away at the usual apple upon the head of the customary boy, with great it and effectiveness.
