Berrien, Thomas ■ -NatJ/oi ah yews, Jan. 16. From the Baltimore A un. Thirty-Fifth Congress— First Session. Washington, Jan. 13. Senate. Mr. Doolittle introduced a joint resolu tion directing the presentation of a medal to Com modore Paulding for ins conduct in arresting Walker and his followers. The resolution was read once by its title. The Senate then resumed the consideration of Mr. Mason s motion to reconsider the vote adopting Mr. Hunter’s amendment to the joint resolution extending and defining the power of the President with regard to the nomination of officers who have been affected by the action of the Naval Re tiring Board. The amendment alluded to is as follows : “ That nothing herein contained shall be so con strued as to allow the increase of the number of officers on the active service list as now authorised by law.” Mr. Houston, Mr. Toombs and others spoke with great earnestness in favor of the reconsideration, contending that the effect of the proviso was to prevent justice being done to those officers who had been injuriously affected by the action of the naval retiring board. Mr. Toombs spoke of these officers as being “ victims of the most perfidious treachery.” Mr. Stuart opposed the motion in a long speech, arguing that no necessity had been shown for in creasing the active list; and although a great deal had been said about injustice, the specific cases had not been mentioned. Mr. Davis mentioned two cases of gallant offi cers who had been struck down while on honora ble service—one in Puget’s Sound, and the other on the coast of Africa. Mr. liale eloquently eulogised Commodore Stew art, and denounced the retiring board generallv. When he closed his remarks there was a slight demonstration of applause in the galleries, which were densely filled by officers of the navy, and others. " ’ After a long debate, Mr. Hunter’s amendment was rejected; and a joint resolution was passed with another amendment limiting the power of the President to nominate, to six months alter the pas sage of the act. Mr. Brown gave notice of his intention to offer an amendment to Mr. Doolittle's joint resolution for the presentation of a medal to Commodore Paulding. It is to the effect that Congress has heard with surprise of the arrest of Gen. Wm, Walker and others at Punta Arenas by Commodore Paulding, and feeling satisfied that said act was a violation of the territorial sovereignty of Nicara gua, and not sanctioned by any existing law, Con gress disavows the act, and being officially noti fied that said Paulding acted without instructions from the President or the Secretary of the Navy, Congress hereby expresses its condemnation of bis conduce in this regard. Mr. Fitch made a personal explanation in refer ence to the proceedings of the late Indiana State Convention, and the resolution which was changed bv telegraph, being the subject of an editorial in to-day ’s| Union. Mr. Douglas said a few words in reply, contend ing that the change was not a very material one. Mr. Hale undertook to explain the action ot the New Hampshire Democracy on this question, caus ing some lun. The Senate then adjourned. House.— The House went into committee of the whole on the state of the Union on the President’s annual message. Mr. Curtis argued that from the earliest period of our national history until now, the’government has interposed bv various means to restrain our citizens from fitting out hostile expeditions against nations with which we are at peace. The opera ions of Walker affirded evidence of the necessity for the application of the-neutrality laws. He ad verted to the enormous expenses of keeping the various routes across the Isthmus open. The routes were too long and distant, and the country too sickly to be- of permanent advantage. To reach the Pacific, a direct line should be taken across our own territory, ft was wrong for the government to go into (filibustering operations. Hus has been its policy for years past, and it has too long winked at private (filibustering. An ex amination of the document submitted by the Pre sident, shows that Commodore Paulding has, like a true and honest sailor, carried out his instruc tions. It was not his duty to explain the law. Mr. Clay said this was the first time lie had the privilege to address the legislative assembly of the country, and he was gratified in now rising to sus tain what lte believed to be law and order. They had seen the remarkable spectacle of an adminis tration apparently unsupported by its own friends, oid on the reception of every message from the President, opportunities had been taken to assail aid pick at him. He acquiesced in every word the President had written on the Central American question. It was necessary that instructions should be issued for intercepting Walker’s expedition, ind to restrain our citizens from acts violative of he neutrality laws. Walker was brought home with the view of saving his neck, and for that he should be grateful. He broke not only internation al law, hut the statute law. He escaped from this country under false colors; and Mr. Clay main tained that it was not only in the power of the President, but it was his duty to send for Walker over the high seas and bring iiim back. He thought that Commodore Paulding had committed a grave error, and that this remark by the President was a sufficient censure on the conduct of that officer. Mr. Pottle, of New Fork, followed Mr. Clay. He concurred with the Administration in relation to the Central American question. All right-minded and unbiased men would applaud the conduct of Commodore Paulding. In conclusion, he entered his protest against Americanizing Central Ameri ca, without an invitation to that end. Mr. Lamar, of Mississippi, during his hour, spoke in defense of the proceedings leading to the adop tion ot the Lecompton Constitution, and took oc casion to say that Gov. Robert J. Walker had vio lated his pledges, and that Stephen A. Douglas had undertaken to outrage southern rights because there was a slight prospect of Kansas becoming a slave State. Mr. Montgomery justified the arrest of General Walker, and was in favor of having him arrested and sent back to Nicaragua to be dealt with by that offended State. Mr. Zollicoffer made a speech in defense of Gen. Walker, contending that lie had not violated the neutrality laws. When he had concluded the com mittee rose and the House adjourned. From the Baltimore Sim. Documents relative to Nicaraguan Af tairs. The documents transmitted to the House of Rep resentatives bv the President, in response to the resolution calling for information in relation to the recent events in Central America, include a letter from Secretary Cass, who says that no treaty be tween the United States and Nicaragua has as yet been ratified, and there is no information on that subject in the possession of the department which it would be consistent with the public interest at this time to communicate. Several letters from Mr. Yrisarri are included in the documents transmitted. Under date of Octo ber last he complains of the fillibustering move ments, and says that the United States can prevent a new invasion, but not by means of the neutrality laws, for these are too weak. It has only to re ceive a Nicaraguan Minister in his official'charac ter and enter into a treaty of friendship and com merce, to protect the property of its own citizens, by securing to them tiie transit across the Isthmus | without interference, and by this means fillibus- i terisin would be destroyed. This simple act, so just, politic, and proper, would, he says, restore hope and confidence to his country, and content ment and happiness to his people, and at the same time secure most valuable benefits and advantages to citizens of the United States. In a letter dated in November last, he writes to Secretary Cass that Gen. Walker never could have been President of Nicaragua, because the Constitution of the Republic excludes any one not | a native of Central America from the exercise of ; executive power, either in Nicaragua or any other l of the Republics of Central America. Is any coin- ! ny desired to he formed by Geu. Walker or any other person, who, like him, lias dreamed of a I mastery over its lands, to divide them among his i foreign allies ? Yrisarri, therefore, protests j against the contemplated colonization by Gen. j Walker and his associates of Guatemala, Salvador, | and Nicaragua. In a letter dated December 13th, Yrisarri calls j the attention of Secretary Cass to Gen. Walker’s I movements, and trusts that proceedings will be t instituted against these violators of the laws of , neutrality with that vigor which is required for i tii. maintenance of peace, and of a fair undestand ing between friendly neutral nations. And on De cember he, as minister of Guatemala, Nica ragua and Salvador, returns thanks to the govern ment of the l nited States for having taken away the adventurer, \\ alker, and his invading band, from the point of which they had taken possession, on i the coast of Nicaragua—thus relieving these friend ly countries from the evils with which they would have been visited had these disturbers of the peace of nations been allowed the possibility of increas ing their forces by new recruits. The point froth which Com. Paulding forced away these bandits—as such justly assimilated, by the laws of nations, to pirates and foes of man kind—is au almost deserted one, on which exists no Nicaraguan authorities that could have man aged these felons in Nicaragua. Therefore he con siders the proceedings of Com. Paulding against Walker anil his horde as entirely justifiable, for a man-of-war of any nation may take up pirates from a desert island or a point so thinly populated. In 1556 the population of France was at a stand *ti;l, and there was in that year a preponderance of deaths over births to the number of five hundred thousand. The Boston Transcript says the following, by Oliver Wendell Holmes, is the finest simile ever written : “ The mind of a bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you throw upon ittha more | it contracts.” Eccentric Preacher. A good story is told of a Methodist preacher — and the story is true to the letter—who lived about forty years ago. He was a bachelor, and we could write Ins real name, but prefer to call him Smith. He resi-ted many persuasions to inary, which his friends were constantly making, until he had reached a tolerably advanced age, and he nimself began to feel the heed of, or, at least, to have new ideas of the comfort of being nursed with woman’s gentle care. Shortly after entering one of his circuits, a maiden lady.| also of ripe years, was strongly recommended" to him, and his friends again urged that he bad better get marrried, rep resenting that the lady named would probably not refuse to accept him, notwithstanding his eccen tricities. “ Do you think tho ?” responded the dominie, for he very perceptibly lisped; “ then I’ll go and thee her.” He was a man of his word. His ring at the door-bell was answered by the serving maid. “ lih Mith P within ?” briskly but calmly asked the lover. “ Yes, sir. Will yon walk in? ” “ No, I thank you. Be kind enough to tliay to Mith P that I wish to thpeak to her a mo ment.” MissP appeared, and repeated the invitation to walk in. “ No, thank you; I’ll thoon explain my butlu ness. I’m the new Methodist preacher. I’m un married. My friendth think I’d better marry. They recommend you for my wife. Have you any objection?” “ Why, really, Mr. Sm—” “There—don’t anther now. Will call thith day week for your reply. Good day.” On that day week he reappeared at the door of Miss P ’s residence. It was promptly open ed by the lady herself. “ Walk in, Mr. Smith.” “ Cannot ma’ain. Have not time. Thaiart on my tlnrcuit round in half an our. Ith your anth wer ready, ma’am?” “ Oh, do walk in, Mr. Smith.” “Can’t indeed, ma’am, Pieath anthvver me. Yeth or No?” “Well, Mr. Smith, it is a very serious matter. I should not like to (jet out of the way of Provi dence”— “ / perfectly underthtand you, Mith P. We will be married thith day week. I will call at thith hour. Pieath be ready, ma’am.” He called on that day week, at that hour. She was ready; they were married, and lived happily several years. Atchafalaya Currency. Captain Shellcross, of the Mississippi steamer Peytoua, is one of the crack captains of the river. Everybody knows him and he knows everybody, and therefore we must tell a little story about him. One day the Peytona was steaming down, past the cotton woods, towards New Orleans, when she was hailed by another boat going up. “Hallo ! Captain Shellcross.” “ Hallo !” was the answer. “ Got any Atchafalaya money?” “ Yes. plenty.” “ Well, pay it out; the bank’s busted or a gwine to.” “ Ay, ay,” said Captain Shellcross. “Clerk, have you got much of that money?” “ About a thousand dollars, I reckon, sir/’ said the clerk of the Peytona. “ Well, stop at the first wood boat,” And the Peytona puffed on until a wood boat was seen moored to the shore, with piles of cord wood around, and a small man, with his trowsers rolled up, and his hands in his pockets, shivering on the bank beside the boat, in the chill December weath- er. “Wood boat, ahoy!” sang out Cupt. Shellcross. Small man in the distancs, “Hallo !” “ Want to sell that wood?” Small man in the distance, “Yes.” “Take Atchafalaya money?” Small man in the distance, “Yes.” “ Round to, pilot,” said Capt. Shellcross. The boats bound down stream always have to come around, with their bows pointed up stream, to resist the current of the Mississppi; sometimes they encounter a big eddy and have to make a sweep of some miles before reaching the landing place. So it was in this instance. “So you’ll take Atchafalaya money for wood, wifi you?” said the captain, as the boat approached the shore. “Yes,” said the small man. “How will you take it?” said Captain Shellcross (meaning at that rate). “ Take it even,” said small man. “ What do you mean by even?” “Cord for cord, Captain - ” “Put her round again, pilot,” said Capt. Shell cross, “and wood up at the next wharf boat; [ reck on this fellow has been posted by somebody on Atchafalaya.”— Exchange. Kind Words—Wny Use Them.—l. Because they always cheer him to whom they are address ed. They soothe him if he is wretched. They comfort him if he is sad. They keep him out of the slough of despond, or help him out if he hap pens to be in. 2. There are words enough of the opposite kind flying in all directions—s. nr words—cross words—fretful words—insulting words—overbear ing words—irritating words. Now let kind words have a chance to get abroad, since so many, go different, are on the wing. 8. Kind words bless him that use them. A sweet sound on the tongue tends to make the heart mel low. Kind words react upon the kind felings which prompted them, and make them more kind. They add fresh fuel to the fire of benevolent emo tion in the soul. 4. Kind words beget kind feelings toward him that loves to use them. People love to see the face and hear the voice of such a man. Kind words are, therefore, of great value in these hard times. Rights or Gas Companies.- —Some time since the Paterson (N. Y.) Gas Light Company refused to let John Brady, of that city, have gas on his premises till he had paid a gas bill contracted by the previous occupant, who had left without pav ing his bill. Mr. Brady, in order to test the case, brought suit before a justice and received a ver dict in his favor. The company appealed from it, and the Court of Common Pleas has just endorsed the previous decision, and the company lias again appealed to a higher court. Operation on an Elephant.— During the kite visit to Hull of Wombcll’s menagerie, the elephant Chubby underwent an operation which deserves a place amongst surgical records. For twelve or fif teen months previously, a tumor had beon gather ing on Chubby’s off-side thigh. Chubby sickened, lost his appetite, and pined away. Many ways were tried iti vain to remove (he tumor ; until, as a last resource, application was made to a Hull veterinary surgeon, Mr. Tom. 15. Hyde, Jr. Mr. Hyde resolv ed to use the lancet. The operation lasted two hours, Chubby undergoing it with fortitude. The tumor when removed weighed five pounds, and one of the fangs had to be searched out with the knife for a foot down the thigh. The operation proved eminently successful. Every fresh bulletin announced his improving health, till the latter end of November, when Mr. Hyde pronounced his pa tient thoroughly restored, and capable of returning to business. Chubby at once took the train to join i his friends, Messrs. Wombell <st Co., and when we last heard of him hts appetite and good looks were the theme of general admiration. Eastern Counties Herald.

Change of Circumstances. —The practice of sel ling out paupers to the lowest bidder—or rather of putting up at auction the undertaking for their support—still prevails, it seems, in some of the towns of Maine. The Rural Intelligencer, of Gar j diner, in that State, calls attention to the sad case of Parker Sheldon, a few years ago one of the most prominent business men of the State, widely known and highly respected, several times a member of the legislature, once a member of the Executive Council, formerly collector of the port of Bath, ; and the first mayor of Gardiner after it be- I came a city. In old age, and reduced to second childhood, Ins bodily and mental powers exhausted, and his property all gone, he is now a pauper, de pendent on a neighboring town, and was lately dis posed of at auction to the lowest bidder for his support. It is stated that there are ten times as many newspapers printed in the German language in the United States as there are in Germany. The French government is said to be about con cluding a treaty which places the Sandwich Islands j under a Protectorate of that nation. Boston, Jan. 11.—Charles L.
