The House then proceeded (0 the couside reported yesterday by Mr. Banks from the € eign Affuirs more effectually to preserve the neutrality relations of the United States. Mr. BANKS (Rep., Mass.) proceeded to explaia the bill and show the changes it proposed. The object of the Committes had been to scale the neutrality act of 1518 to the staodard of the foreign enlistment act of Great Britain of 1819, Thore was nothing in this bill that was not coutaioed in the Eoglish for. , except the provision anthoriziug citizens the United States to sell vessels and muuitions of war te ernments, or to the citizens of Governments with which United States is not at war. It proposed to repeal the of- ud oppressive provisions of the Neutrality Act of 1818, ot of 1318 made the Governmont ronp;::!l-l- 3 8 re. f poaled that, ,but provided that citize crimes against other Governments beyoud the jurisdiction of the United States, be, on their return, prosecuted, ‘That was the same provision as was coutainad in the foreizn onlistment act. It also repealed seotion 9 of the act of 1813, requiring owaers and consignecs of armed vessels depunnf from this country to give bo: for their conduct. It also repealed the very offensive and onerous provisions of sec- tion 11, which commanded Collectors of Customs to seize aad detain vessels whenever thers shall be oauss for suspioion that they are going to comuiit scis of hostility agalast othor Gov- ernments; on the other band, the bill gave to the Government every requisite power for maiotaiuing neutrality with other tions, the power to prevent and punish enlistments within the United States, and the power to prohibit the inoreasiag of the force of armed vessels within the United States. It with- held no power given to other Goveraments to maintaln or en- force neutrality laws, and it im) 00 the people oo probiil tion or restriction inconsietent with the pmu.nx of the country or tho good order of society. Its poiiey purpose was to b“n Ihlg neutzality laws of the couatry tothe same level as thoke of Great Britain. i.vohuon Dem., N. Y.), a member of the g0 Affairs, woved as & substitute for the Commi bill the following: Be it enacted, That & Joint Committas of thres membars of the Senate and six members of the House of tatives be appointed 1o revive the several statutes affocting the neutral rel of the poople of the United States with $hose of other ations, con- Vider and roport what Ingalation {4 necesary Lo secue (o the people of the United St ta enjoyed by other nations to secare the largest libart e and trads consistent with permaneat peace. and to tatutes of the United States upon this Subyect with 1o aud with the progressive splcit of the age.

Hoe knew of no exigency that requirod & change in the nentrality laws. On tha contrary, eircumstances existed which inclined him to bolieve that caution was mora than ever necessary in making such s change.
