HAVE YOUR d The Subscri- Mr her takes the responsibility of reminding those who have a taste for the pleasures of hunting, that the season for it has commenced. They are therefore advised, and particularly request ed to present their guns at his shop, opposite the Post Office, for inspection and repairs, as no one can ac quire a reputation or become an accomplished artist in shooting, who uses an unworthy piece. It is now generally conceded, judging from past patronage, for which he is truly grateful, that after a gun has passed out of his hands, it is fit to do good service; but, should it not prove satisfactory, he is confident that a generous and discriminating public will certainly not blame the gun, but the owner or his dog.

A j meeting of citizens will probably be called to consider the subject and to forward the project. The amount of money required to construct the whole line is but $150,000, and Charleston may secure the benefit of the work by subscrib* ing her proper share of that amount. Fire in Charleston. l — Loss of Lief..— The Drug Store of Mr. C. Pankin, Chemist, in Market, between Meeting and King-streets, was consumed on Wednesday morning about 4 o’clock. The family escaped with difficulty, except the nurse, a colored girl, who was con sumed. The stock of goods, valued at $15,000, was insured for SO,OO0 —the house for $6,500. The fire is thought to be the work of an incen diary. The Massachusetts Regiment of Volunteers for service in Mexico was complete on Satur day with the exception of one company, and it was to be mustered into service on that day. Correspondence o f the Baltimore American. From Washington, Washington, Jan. 0, 1847. The appropriation bills reported in the House this morning from the Cemmittee of Ways and Means amount, in the aggregate, to nearly for ty millions of dollars ; and it is supposed that those which are to follow will swell the amount j to fifty-five or sixty millions. The amountof the Army bill is $29,558,704 25. Os this sum there is for the pay and sub sistence of officers and men ; transportation of troops ; purchase of horses, mules, &c. ; ord nance and ordnance stores; manufacture of arms, &c. &c. for the army proper, $6,813,373.- 1 25 ; for the pay, subsistence, ordnance, trans- j portatiou and supplies, for the volunteers, sl7,- i 932, 331 ; and to supply deficiencies in the ex- : isting appropriations for the pay, travelling al lowance, transportation and supplies of rolun- ] teers, under the act of the 13th May, and joint resolution of Bth August, $4,793,000. The amount of the Navy bill is $8,920,204.- j 49. of which $2,500,000 is for the increase and j repairs of vessels ; $409,417 for improvements ofNavy Yards; $275,000 for the Dry Dock at Brooklyn ; and $320,546 for the support ofthe Marine Corps. The amount of the Indian appropriation is $1,179,324, ofvvhich $124,000 is for fulfilling I the recent treaty with the Cherokees, and j SIIO,OOO for that with the Pottawatamies. The bids for the public printing for the next 1 session were opened this morning by tbe Sec retary of the Senate and Clerk of tbe House, ; and the contract has been awarded to tbe Al- j banv Argus junto. Washington, Jan. 9. 1847. The monthly statement of the Treasury De partment was only furnished by the Department on Thursday evening, after the adoption of the Resolution calling for the statement. The bal ance of $2,947,102 in the Treasury on the 3Jst of December shows a falling off of $1,937,- j 547 07. The Government have received as a j balance of the last loan $4,539,000, and the re- j ceipts into the Treasury it is supposed were ; nearly two millions of dollars duringthe month j —making a total expenditure of $5,470,547 07 during the month of December. The expen ditures will he equal to this sum, it is thought, in January. Washington, Jan. 11, 1847. The Loan Bill and Treasury Note Bill were reported together this morning—the President being authorized to issue $23,000,000 in Trea sury Notes and of denominations as low as fifty dollars. The notes may be redeemed in one or two years from date. The holders of notes are allowed to have the same converted into stock at their option, and | ample and convenient provisions are made for 1 this purpose. The Treasury Notes are to bear an interest not exceeding six percent, and the stock issued in lieu of them is to be transferable upon tbe books of the Department. The stock may be redeemed, at any time after the last of December, 1807. The notes are also to be re-issued. At the close of the bill, the President has power to borrow tbe money it he prefers, and in whole or in part, at his own op tion. The interest is to he paid semi-annually, and the meney received from the sales ot the public lands are pledged for the payment of the inte rest and principal. The balance of the bill re lates mainly to the execution ofthe law, punish ment for counterfeiting, manner of proposing, &c. &c. The sum of $20,000 is appropriated for incidental expenses under the bill. The Civil and Diplomatic bill does not differ much from the estimates. Among the items, however, are $10,375 for the payment of the Sub-Tteasurers, and $4,500 for a Charge de Affaires for Peru. The estimates for Congress are Members of Congress $755,000 Contingent 150,000 Officers 39,000 Senators, contingent 75,000 From Santa Fe.—The St. Louis Republi can of the 31st nit., says — At a late hour last night we received a budget of letters from several correspondents in New Mexico. Those from Santa Fe bear date as late as the 15th of November, and give us in detail all the events of interest which had transpired in that quarter for several weeks previous. In no part of our correspondence have we been able to find any allusion to the reported defeat of the sixty dragoons, mention of which was made in our paper of yesterday. A letter from Moro, dated on the 21st of No vember, announces the arrival there ot Mr. N. Colburn, in advance of the wagons belonging to the last company of the traders which left Independence. On the 17th they experienced a severe storm of snow, which killed many of the oxen, but they were able to supply them selves at Moro, and would get safely into Santa Fe. The United States trains could not, it is said, move a wagon on account of snow and the loss of animals, and they were then buying oxen to get the wagons along. \ wealthy Mexican citizen, seeing the em barrassments of the Government’s agent tor the want of money, had generously proffered to loan Major Walker, paymaster, one hundred thousand dollars at an interest of only three per cent, a month. Washington’s Sword. —Lieut. Lawrence B. Washington, 2d Lieutenant of Capt. Ro man’s company from Jelierson County, wears at his side the sword of his idolized ancestor, “the Father of his Country.” The Richmond Enquirer remarks —This precious relic w 1 m itself be potent enough to rally every mem >ei of the Virginia Regiment to the noblest and most generous deeds. The Anti-Renters in Columbia County, N. Y are beginning to resume their lawless pro ceedings.

The Vice-President being slightly unwell, Mr. Atchison called the Senate to order, and read a letter from that officer, requesting him to occupy the chair during his absence. Mr. Crittenden raised the question as to the ! authority of the Vice-President to delegate the i chair to another when he was not himself pres ent. He disclaimed any personal feeling in this course, towards either the Vice-President or the Senator from Missouri. He had no doubt that the result of a ballot would be the same as if the appointment of the Vice-President should be acquiesced in. He desired to see the thing done properly, and therefore moved that the Senate do now proceed to the election of a President, pro tern. Mr. Atchison here desired the Secretary to read the rule, which is as follows: “ The Vice-President, or President of the Senate pro tempore, shall have the right to name a member to perform the duties of the chair; but such substitute shall not extend be yond an adjournment.” Mr. Speight thought that under this rule the Vice-President had the power to delegate his au thority to another. Mr. Sevier rema' ked that this question was raised at the last session, when he had had the honor of being delegated to the Chair. He knew that it must be embarrassing to the Senator from Missouri, and as the Vice-President would probably resume the Chair to-morrow, he hoped the Senator from Kentucky would withdraw his motion. The motion not being withdrawn, Mr. Atchi son said he felt great delicacy in occupying the chair while this question was pending, and he would prefer vacating it and leaving the pro ceedings to be conducted by the Secretary. Mr. Crittenden hoped the Senator would re main in the chair until the question was disposed of, by common consent; and no objection being I made, Mr. Atchison continued in the chair. 31r. Badger thought the rule which had been 1 read did not apply to the present case.. This j was a rule authorizing the Vice-President to i delegate the duties of the chair when he was present, but not when lie was absent. The present case was one which the Committee pro vided for. when it declared that in the absence of the Vice-President the Senate should ap point a President pro tern. The V ice-President , was absent from the Hall—he was not the Pres i ident of that body when so absent—he was sim | plv tin; Vice-President of the L nited States. After some farther remarks from 3lr. Badger and Mr. Allen, Mr. Crittenden modified his resolution, so as 1 to make it read— Resolved, That the Hon. D. K. Atchison be and he is hereby appointed President pro tern. j during the absence of the Vice-President, and ' until lie resumes his seat as presiding officer of ! this body. A lengthy debate ensued, in which Messrs. ; Sevier, Berrien, Calhoun, Badger, Allen. But ler, Crittenden, Johnson of La., 3langum, Breese, Webster, Bagby and Westcott took | part, when the question was taken on amotion i by Mr. Sevier, to lay Mr. Crittenden’s resolu | tion.upon the table, and decided in the negative. .VV Bagby then moved a substitute for Mr. I Crittenden’s resolution as modified by himself, I restoring it to its original shape. Mr. Crittenden accepted the substitute, and it j was agreed to. The Senate then proceeded to ballot for a President pro tern, and the vote stood for I). 11. Atchison 47; Daniel Sturgeon 1. So Mr. I Atchison was duly elected President pro tern, of the Senate. Mr. Sevier then moved that the Judiciary i Committee be instructed to inquire into the ex j pediency of repealing or modifying the 23d ! rule which was agreed to. Mr. Allen submitted a series of resolutions ' setting forth, that with a view to a speedy and honorable peace, the war with Mexico ought to be prosecuted with increased energy and that to this end additional regiments of volun teers ought immediately to be called into the field; that a portion of the public lands ought to be set apart as an additional reward to the officers and soldiers who shall have served in i the war; that the residue of the national domain | and the proceeds thereof ought to be pledged j for the payment of the public debt and the in j terest thereon; and that the Military Committee i and the Committee on Finance report bills to | effect these objects. The resolutions were ordered to be printed, j and laid over for one day under the rule. Mr. Dix from tire Committee on Military Af j fairs, reported a bill to provide for an additional ' Military force to serve during the war. Also, a bill to authorize the appointment of a 1 Lieutenant-General to command the army. Both the above bills were after some conver sation, made the special order for Thursday. After a short Executive session the Senate adjourned. HOUSE. Some motions were made to amend the Journal—followed by a report of the bill lor encouraging enlistments in the army trom the Committee on Enrolled bills. The bill was signed by the Speaker. Mr. Bedinger ofVa. was permitted to make a personal explanation, not being understood in some remarks which he had made about slavery. He wished now to be understood in saying that he did not consider the institution ot slavery a curse, a misfortune or an evil. Mr. Haralson of Ga. and Mr. Burt of S. C. also made personal explanations —the former in reference to the number of troops enlisted, and the latter in explanation of some remarks made bv him against the appointment of a Lieutenant- General for the army. The unfinished business of Saturday next occupied the attention of the House. The Bill as it was did not satisfy the friends ofthe Ad ministration, but it was beyond the reach of amendment. Mr. Boyd appealed to the House unanimous ly to consent to several amendments, the most important of which was that the troops now raised should be disbanded immediately after the war with Mexico. Mr. Ashmun said ha should object, unless the gentlemen from Ky. would consent to in clude an amendment by which members ofthe present Congress should be prohibited from holding commissions in the Army. 3lr. Boyd said he was opposed to the amend ment, but might consent that it should be inser ted in order to save the other amendments. Several members upon the Administration side ofthe Chamber earnestly objected to any such prohibition. Then arose a brief debate as to the best way of undoing what had been done on Saturday—the Bill as ordered an in grossment being avowedly very imperfect. But the thing was not practicable and was j abandoned. The bill was then passed as ordered to an engrossment, by yeas and nays. Yeas 105, nays 45. Mr. Boyd now commenced the work of re tracing previous steps, and moved the Previous Qaiestioi) upon a motion to reconsider the vote just taken. There was a second and the vote was reconsidered, yeas 137, nays 54. The vote upon the engrossment was then reconsidered without a division, and the Bill was opened to amendment. Mr. Boyd offered a series of amendments looking to the appointment of officers, propo sing the disbanding of troops, &c. A motion to recommit the Bill was made and lost, and the amendments offered agreed to, and the House brought to a vote upon the passage ofthe Bill as amended, and it was passed, yeas 171, nays 34. The Bill is now with the Senate. The House, on motion of Mr. Douglass, of 111., went into Committee of the Whole upon the Bill to establish a territorial Government in Oregon—being the special order of the day. My. Hopkins of Va. was called to the chair, and the hill read through The Bill having been read, Mr. Thompson of Pa., wished to know if the Committee on Territories had retained the a mendment agreed upon to the Bill which had passed the House at the last session of Congress, prohibiting Slavery in the new territory. , Mr. Campbell of N. V. raised the question of t allowing all classes of the citizens to vote in i Oregon. The Bill contemplated this, and he did not think it right to grant the power. If we , ■ had no control of this question in a sovereign 1 t State we certainly had some control of it here I over the people of one of our own territories. | i Mr. Douglass thought it proper to allow this ' class of persons to vote. They had been a long time in the territory,—they stood by the coun try and wished well to it. Mr. Vinton, of Ohio thought the effect ofthe Bill was to overturn the organic law of the land. Congress ought to prescribe the law both for the qualification of voters and the qualifica tion of office holders. He imagined that this had been hitherto the practice in all laws. He should move at the proper time to insert the qualifications named. Air. Campbell ofN. Y. moved to strike out “inhabitant,” and insert “citizen of the United States,” among those allowed to vote. Tellers were called, and the amendment was carried 65 to 54. Mr. V inton proposed amendments, the effect of which was to prescribe the qualification of voters, and this was pounced upon by Alessrs. Boulin of Mo. Smith of 111. and other members from the West, and defended by Messrs. Vin ton, Campbell, Levin and others. The Committee rose between three and four o’clock without action upon the Bill. Mr. Douglass oTHi. presented a memorial from several persons engaged in the late Ex ploring Expedition, which was referred to the Committee on the Library. The Civil and Diplomatic bill was reported, with a bill for raising a Loan, and for the issue I of Treasury Notes. ' The House then adjourned.
