The Senate went into executive ses sion shortly afier meeting, but subse quently temporarily reopened, when Mr. Sumner offered the following reso lutien, proposing the good officers of the United States between the contending parties in Mexico : Whereas, »the Republic of Mexico, though relieved from the presence of a foreign enemy, by the final withdrawal of the French troops, continues to be convulsed by a bloody civil war, in which Mexicans are ranged on opposite sides; and whereas, the United States are bound by neighborhood and repub lican sympathies to do all in their power for the welfare of the Mexican people, and this obligation becomes more apparent from the present condi tion pf affairs, where each party is eeibittered by protracted conflict. Therefore, 11. soloed, That it is proper for the Government of the United States, acting in the interest of humanity and civili zation! to tender its good offices by way of mediation between the contending parties of the Republic of Mexico, in order to arrest a deplorable civil war, and to attain the establishment of a republican government, on the founda tion Sf peace and hsrmony. 1 Mr. Henderson gave notice of his intention to offer the following as a sub- stitute: Resolved, by the Senate of the United SluUi,, That in case Maximilian shall at fin. eriVly day Seft fit to abdicate his authority in Mexico, and shall signify a desire to withdraw himself and his foreign troops from the country to the end that civil war may be terminated, the Senate would be gratified that the president would tender the good offices of erftr Government to secure at the hands of the Republican Government of Mexico, for the native followers of Maximilian, such mild and humane treatment as characterizes the conduct ot civilized warfare. The resolution and substitute were laid on the table end ordered printed. Mr. Cole submitted the following, which lies over : Whkiikas, A misunderstanding exists between Prussia and France, springing out of the ownership of the Grand Duchy of Luxemberg. and war between (|,use Powers i* immiuent.

The meeting was very large and eathusias. tic, and about one half negroes. John Lyon was the ouly speaker. FROM BOSTON. Prize Decision. Boston, March 19. Judg* Lowell, of the United States District Court, decided that the Clyde built steamer Cyrene,captured in Ashley river, Charleston, when that city sur rendered, and condemned as a prize, was a prize to the Government, and not to the blockading fleet, as claimed.

The reports of the egress of Maxi milian from Querataro. without giving battle, and the rumors of the Liberal forces being in part defeated, aud suffer ing. for supplies, are directly contra dicted.

Consul Goedfrey has received a letter from Gen. Cortina, in reference to the operations at Queretaro, dated March IC, which stated that (he Liberals made a rccounoisance in force, bringing on an engagement, which lasted eight hours, and resulted in driving the Im pcrialisls from some of their posses sions. New Orleans, April 19. Advices from Matanzas to the 13th, say that the Liberals captured Puebla, and Maximilian had offered to surren der, but his overtures were rejected. The Liberals refuse to grant the terms demanded by Maximilian. FROM CALIFORNIA. 8a» Francisco, April 19. Letters from Lower California give an account of an attempted- revolution. It appears that Gaston Dartois, on April Ist, landed at La Paz, from Ma zatlan, and proclaimed Navarrette a revolutionary exile, and said that he would reach the former place by tbe next steamer, with two hundred men, to reinstate himself as the Governor ot the Territory. On the route to La Paz, Dartois enlisted a few of the adherents of Navarrette. He-took San Antonio by surprise, and made prisouers of the officials. From San Antonio he went to La Paz, and attacked the house of tbe Governor, but he found himself sur rounded by troops, aud his small baud fled and were pursued aud overtaken. D»rtoU was ordered to be shot on April 9th. According to the facts slated, this petty revolution was contemplated with a view to plunder, and in tbe event of success, Dartois would have bad the American Governors suffer with the rest.
