Mr. SUMNER, from the Committee on Foreign Relations, teported the House joint resolution relative to the at- teim) assassination of the Emperor of Russia, with an additional section as an amendment requesting the Presi- %ent 1o forward a copy of the resolution to the Emperor of ussia. Mr. SrMNER said he did not believe attempted assassina- tion of the Russian Emperor was the result so much ‘what he had done for emancipation as of the thoroughness with which Le had followed it to its logical conclusions in conralrnng civil and political rights upon the emauncipated e, l)mr. SAULSBURY moved to strike ont of the resolution the words **by an enemy of emancipation,” He would simply remark that there was no such information before th te. There was not a particle of evidence that the attempted assassin was an enemy of emuncipation. It it ‘was true the fuct could be ascertained by inquiry from the Russian Minister. The statement he (SIr. Saulsbury) had seen was that the attempt was made by 4 man in humble life, who did not own any serfs. He had learned, slso, Ho did not kuow anythin, about it, but he thought the Senate, before asserting nlu‘g a thing, ought to get information on the supject. The amendment of Mr. SADLSBURY was not agreed to. The resolution as amended by the Commitice on Fore) Afiairs was passed. PREVENTION OF CTOLERA.
