The United States steamer Tuscarora arrived to- day from Key West. ment. But do not let us seek a fool's conso- lation in binding ourselves to that. Cross the Channel, seek tie island, long united to us in political and legisiaive bonds, How melancholy, mn tne face of this great assembly, to be compelled to coniess that that isiand, which we have governed for seven hundred years, over which we have exercised almost unbounded ower, has not yet fulililed the first con- ition’ of a civilized community; bas not been brought mto harmony with our laws and institutions, It is almost unnecessary to remind you that we wero called to office In connec- tion with this important crisis in the affairs of Ireland, a crisis in which the mind of the country ‘Was more seriously addressed thau formerly towards Making endeavors to put an end to what bas bean a problem and a speck on the fair fame of our country for so many generations, In Ireland we see society politically diseased—we sce a ueople of noble capacity and quick susceptibility, wlose heart in Many~ cases does not beac with a warm and lively attachment to her sister coun- tries, and who do not in all respects yield to the authority of laws which we glad'y recognize on this side of the Chanu This year has been marked by the Le kes y of agrarian out- whic! Tages there, from this country 1s singularly free. ‘The general tendencies to crime there acquire a jnfal notoriety ond strike the hearts of iuglishmen with a deadly chill, As to the causes of these outrages it would probably be premature and diiNcult now to deoide. To those connected with these outrages | wonld suggest that their way is not the way to attain success in the Legislature. The com- mitiers of outrage are enemics 10 the ests of the country, We are giad to be cheered in pur own endeavors to give all Ireland the strongth and unity which a congiderabie part of the island now enjoys. For that end we svail labor, encouraged by our generous countrymen, in regard to our foreign poles. it wouid be idle to say that this department of affairs has a smal! inter. est for England. Importunate iuterterence, | hope, We shal! always avoid; a meddlesoime and ambitious desire or influence we shail always forswear; but the sentiment of a true brotherhood for those countries with which we are united by #0 many costly ties every minister ia bound t cultivate aud shouid not venture to renounce. Happily we are discouraged from prosecuting quarrels with the world in gen- erai—having one tO prosecute. But the friendiy assisiance of England, though not obiruded, ig =aiways when sought for, and has had no small iufiuence 1 allaying dis- turbances and composi differences which Dave and might have arisen in various parta of the world. His noble colleague, Lord Olarendon, since his reiurn to the Foreign Oftice, haa received liberal and bandsome acknowledgments for his contribu- tions towards the accommodation of such duffer- ences. One > excepuon I ought to and it is an exception which 1s the deepest interest to Englishwen—namely, our relations with America, But there 18 no ocoasion on which JI could more propriately refer to tlese relations or better ever them than as those of peace and concord. ‘ere | to attempt to ucpart from that friendly strain Ishould be admonished to judge more correctly and to more wisely a 4 = yee ippeped within this city dur! e pet ‘on I refer to the ‘death of rgo y—a man whose splendid bene- factions will ‘secure immortality jor his name im that which he regarded as his old mother coun- wy, but w fame likewise, and in a broader senge, ts applicable to ali humanity. He has taught ‘us the niost need{ul of ail lessons—how a man can be master of bis fortune and not its slave. And it 1s most touching to know what I have learned from his firoside, that while some men would bave been unhappy at the idea of dying in @ foreign land, his affections were so divided between the land of his birth ana the land of his ancestors, that ‘that which been his fondest of wishes may now be be buried in America, but die in land, With Mr. Peabody’s country we are not 1 to quarre!. It is true that caro oo skit in iplomacy, avimated though it been by the purest and most upright feelings, al- though it has not imperilied our peace, has failed to. lead to the first issue up to the present moment upon the tangled questions of law which have been in discussion between the two couniries. Considerable delay has taken place, yet every delay, instead of leading to danger, was prompted considerate good will and desire to allow the inter- vention of a limited time, mn order to obviate the dif- Moultier, (Choers) I believe the world would view ‘with horror @ parricidal striie between England and America. But such a siate of things is not Hkely to arise from our present relations, and my confidence is in the sentiments which I know guimate the American government as woll as our @wn, and which also antimates the minds of the peo- ple of these two great countries, (Cneors.) Another source of confusion 1s connected with 1@ changes which we witness in every countr nvely internal public opinion has be wing into @ standard of international cond gher than that formerly set up, and it becomes ecossary for our own interests that the conduct of the country not only conforms to our own ideas of 11g ciaiing and right, but to that sense which is enter- tatued of international rights and duties by the whole masd of the civilized community, Another International Aquatic Contest.

Alter debate the qaestions weré referred to the Mermber from Minnesota, with the request that he present them in a more lucid manner, Rey. Dr. PassaRant, of the Committee on Fores Missions, reported that the principal diMecnities that the missionary committed had met, was the want of means to support missonartes. The receipts last year were but $1,000, second diMoulty was the inability to obtain lab for the missionary fields, The missionary labors of the Pennsylvania, Pittsburg, New York, Canada, - land, Ohio, Michigan, iuinots, Augnsta, Virginia and Towa synods deserved creditable mention. The amount expended by these bodies for.domestic mis- sions is between $16,000 and $20,000. It is proposed to plant missions in the West and South during tne winter. Rey.

We also found in the custody of the Treasurer other like bonds, amounting in the aggregate to $45,000,000, ered In the name of and payable to the Secre- tary of the Treasury in trust for the United States, which are the bonds designated as speciaily pur: chased. The total amount of the bonds belonging to both classes exammed and counted ts $62,844,500, and they ure of the several issues annexed, After having Verifea the account of the bonds so he'd by the yasuier by personal examination and account of the same we compared two schedules with the Tecords of the issue of the bonds in the loan branch of the Secretary’s office and with those in the office of the Register of the Treasury and found each to agree wiih the others and with our actual count. The words vatnking fund” impressed upon the bonds belong - ing to that fund are sufficient to distinguish them from the bonds specialiy gy and, in our judgment, the form in which ali the bonds are regis vered—in the name of ‘'the Secretary, m trust for the United States"’—is sufficient to protect the govern- ment from any liability of loss by their destruction or reissue. ‘The bonds examined and counted include the purchascs made prior to the 1st inst.
