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.

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
