The petitioners deny uny tutention of abolishing the pilot system. They only pro- tection from the constantly increasing exactions of the pilots and the Siate legisiatures. They state that very often tuey are forced to pay for the ser. vices when not wanted. ‘hey want a free Pilotage system. The New York pilot ser- vice, they say, 18 composed of twenty-two boats, which, they claim, cost ap average of over $20,000 each, or a total of $440,000, and of 175 licensed pots, They allege that a much smaller number of wen conid do ail the piloting of the port, The rates of pilotage of the port of New York are higher than those of any otuer port of the United States. The amount of tonnage in the coasting trade and the trade of the ports iu the Guif of Mexico and the West Indies is about 2,000,000 tons, and the amount of pilotage exacted trom the masters and owners of vessels is very large. Mr. Bdmunds replied at icngth to the arguments ot those who tavor the pilots. Another Serenade by the Darky Band—The Granite State Delegation the Victims.

The sub- suite ior the bill reported yesterday irom the com. mittee was read and passed. A moun to reeunsider tue bill was eutered by Mr, Stewart, THE CASK OF SENATOR AMES, OF MisSISSIPPT. lock the unfinisied business veing the case of eral Ames as Seuator elect frou Missis- sippt, ly came up m order, Mis Wiliians, (rép.) Of Oregon, made an argu- meut im javor ol the admission of General Ames. thought the fuct of General Ames’ eicction to enute by the Legisiature was p-ima sacie evi- e of inhavitaucy, aud thai all the evidence pomied to the conclusion that at the time of the lection the mtention io reside to Mississippi did exist. Generai Aimes had no legal residence when he !ormed that tatention. Mr. CARPENTER, (rep.) of Wis., said that, after a careful investigation and imparual report upon a dry, legat question, the Judiciary Commuttee lad Deen assailed with a warmta and vigor that would seem {0 indicate tuey were 1D a Couspiracy to over- throw the governinent and to endauger the exist ce of the republican party. His own inference this treatment Was that he thought the irom Senate appreciated the fact that it was some- umes sweet to quarrel with a Uresome iviend; that the Judiciary Committee nad come to be regarded as @ useless member of the body, as belonging to a condition of things When (he constitution Was supreme. When a political measure must be put trough this body, and when the constivution imust be disregarded, the Judiciary Counnitcee, in the Mature of things, Was a useiess Machine; and, so faras his (Mr. Car- penter’s; connection with 11 was coucerned, he was wilting to spar into a written stipulation, giampe under the Revenue ayy, Hat tf.

Mr. Catpeniér Continued:—Conceding, for the purpose Of this discussion, that whenever the coustivution stands tn tae way of what we deein human rights; of what we deem a temporary ad- Vubtuge; ol what we deem a party end; that it is to be trampied under foot and disregarded—concedivg ail that, and tia 18 all that any yenator can claim lor modern progress m_ the reuolutionary direction— conceding ali that, the case of General Ames does not [wil Within the concession, A decent respect jor things past; @ decent regard ior the theory of our government; @ decent regard ior our solemn oaths should dictate thas Une constitution ts not to be trampied under foot, pt in cases of great ne- cessity, ©: of great ce ponding advantages to the country, or to the party, or to human rights, or to somebody. What inducement, then, is there now to trample upon the firse tewer of the constitution ¥ What is tne necessity for General Ames taking his seat immediately? Does tne fate of the republic, of our party or of any pubic ineasure depend upon it? No, sir. Here we are in profound peace, with the republican party 10 power in more than two-thirds of the Staves, and {were is Mississipp! to-day republican in’ both branches. I we say today General Ames 1s not en- titicd to his seat he can return there and without ob- jection or diticulty be sent back here within six days from this time. There is no reason whaiever why the senate suould not decide the quesuon upon strict principles. Mr. Carpenter then referred to the anger to follow from establishing @ wrong prece- dent, Evea the paltry consideration of General Aimes’ pay for ten days was not involved, for the pracuce of the Senate was to date the compensa- tion from the beginning of the session. He argued that an ariny oficer did not lose or acquire residence by compliance with an order of transfer from one part of the country to anotuer, and paid a high com- pliment to the integrity of General Ames aud the candor and truthiuiness of bis rephes when before tne Judiciary Committee. Mr, MORTON (rep.) of ind., said the ‘Judiciary Coumictee had pot been pronounced infallible, and he hoped that all ts members would not consider that lo aiffer with the committee was disrespectiul to it He Claimed that, prima facie, @ person elected to the Senate was qualified for the position. | Such was the legal presumption. He said the Judi- cary Committee had made one great mistake of putting upon General Ames the burden of proving that he was an inhabitant of Mississippi, Whereas tbe burden was upon the other side to show tie contrary. ‘The objection te him having come from tue committee, it was incumbent upon them to sub- stantiate the doubt they nad rafsed, He then pro- ceeded to examine the ground upon which the ob- jection was based, claiming that it did not matter whether General Ames went to Mississippi yolun- tarliy or involuntarily, the only question beirg whether, when there, he did conclude to make that his home. ‘The discussion was continued by Messrs. Howe, Scott, Cragin, Corbett aud Davis, and at five o’ciock, Withous coming to vote on the question, the Senate adjourned, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

He believed some positive, eifective iewisiation necessary to break up tue corrupt crimt- bal condition of things in Utah; but he thougaot that this bill, with its tnicty-four sections, with its multl- farious provisions, Was not the best way to accom- piish that object. ‘There were provisicns in it whico @ppeared to be inimical to every principle of the common law, and it contained a section under which war might be made, directing the President ‘to call Out, in the regular army should not be suilicient, noc exceeding lorty thousand volunteers, for a period not exceeding two years. He was luclined to believe that a short, well drawn biil would effect the object. He would prefer the reter- euce of tis bill to the Judiciary Committee; but ne would Lot, Out of deference to the Committe on Territories, make that motion. Ie moved to recow- mit the bill. Mr. WELKER, (rep.) of Ohio, moved to amend the bill by striking out sections eleven, fourteen, thuiriy, thirty-one and thirty-two. Mr. OULLOM, (rep.) Of IL, chairman of the Com- mittee on Territuries, opposed the motion to recom- saying that he was willing to have reasonable aiendinentg offered aud acted on, and that be him- self intended to move W strike out the eleventh sec- tion, Which makes the lawiul wife & competeat wite hess against the huspand, ana to amend the twelfth section, Which makes proof of cohabitation sufl- cient to sustain the prosecution, ‘The motion to recomumit the bill was rejected by &@ | vote of 76 to 89, The Froude tiién proceedea to vote on the pending + amendments, Tae following amendment, offered by Mr. Fitch, ‘was voted on by yeas and nays:—~ Insert as on additional seotion, that the provisions of this Act, #0 far as the same aball bo applicable, shall be extended to ail the States and ‘Yerritories of the United States wherein the crimes of bigainy, polygamy or concuvinage have beeu or may be practised, ‘The ameudment was rejected—yeas 45, nays 114. The House then proceeded to vote on the amend- ments offered by Mr. Weiker to strike out certain sections, Section eleven, making the lawful wife of the accused @ competent wituess agalust him, was struck out. Section fourteen, providing that statutes of limt- tation sball not bara prosccuiton under this act, Was also struck out? Section thirty, authorizing the confiscation of pro- perty of persons convicted, was uso struck Out. Section thirty-one, for the temporary relief of per- sons reduced to destitution under tue enforcement | Of this law, was also struck out. } Section vhirty-two, authorizing the President to send the mulitary into Utah and to accept 40,000 volunteers, if necessary, to enforce the law, Was also struck out. ‘The bill was then passed, 94 to 32, without the yeas and nays. MINORITY REPORT ON THE LQUISIANA ELECTION CASES. Mr. KERR, (dem.) of Ind., of the Committee on Elections, made a minority report in one of the Louisiana cases, with a resolution that Mr Hunt, the contestant, was eutitied to We seat instead of Mr. Sheldon, the sitting member. The House then, at half-past four, took a recess until halt-past seven, the evenimg session to be for general debate on the Tariff vill. Evening Session. The House met in Committee of the Whole, Mr. PomMEROY in the chair, for generai debate on the ‘Laruf bill, and was addressed py Mr. HOLMAN, (dem.) of Ind., against the protective system ana on the means of reviving American commerce, which -he contended could be the only effective manner, by the general reduction Of taxation. 1t couid not pos- sibly be built up in any other way in competition with nations which had adopted the policy of tree trade. He was allowed to speak for two hours. After some further debate the House adjourned. BOGUS PHILANTHROPY. Horace Greeley Swindied by a Colonization | Scheme—The Philosopher Obtains Damages. In the Circuit Court at White Plains, Westchester county, a suit was decided on Tuesday evening m which Horace Greeley figured as plaintiff against one Moses Dudley Bean, who, a3 was charged, had contrived to defraud the former out of $6,000. It appears that during the year 1866 the defendant portrayed 4 glowing picture of African colonization to Mr. Greeley, the scene whereof was laid in North Carolina, and, to effect this much desired end, Bean informed the “philo- gopher” that @ company, with a capital stock of $500,000, had been formed for the purpose of ac- quiring such rich: and fertile lands as were requisite for the success of the philanthropic undertaking. The plainti. on these representa- tions, advanced the sum above named on the assu- Trance that it was a profitaie Investment, but subse- quently ascertained that tae acres iudicated were a and Queenstown 10th, with m: Jiams & Guion, second half strong passed brig Harbor Grace, bound E | mdae, to ni Brig St Joseph (Br), Bernier, Seville—B F 8: oe i &t Joseph (Br), Bernier, e mall & Co, Brig Manca (Ni janeiro—O Tobias & Co, Brig Gilmer Meredith, Ayres, Kingaton—J 8 Gager.
