Mr. Buckalew objecting, it went over. Mr. 'Henderson, by unanimous consent, intreducei a bill setting apart a territory for the Indians of Nevada an 1 of New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, and Montana; also to authorise the Secretary of War to 1i303 surplus and condemned property to Indiane. R !ferred to Committee on Indian Affairs. Mr. Harlan then spoke in favour of the pending Rec)nstraetiya 13tH. Ha was followed by Mr. Tipton, who eulogised the services of the negroes to the Union, and showed the gratitude duet) them by the Gove rn ment. Feb. 11.—Mr. Willey, of the Committee on Pa tents, reported without amen linent the bill 'requir ing persons applying for an extension of patents to give public notice of the same. The Supplementary Reconstruction Bill being taken up, Mr. Davis moved that the Ju liciary Committee be instructed to report that this bill do not pass, and also to re port a bill repealing all the Reconstruction Acts. Mr. Davis saw perfect analogy betweea the insur rection in the Southern States and the insurrection in Worcester County, Massachusetts, and the whisky insurrection in Pennsylvania. When these insurrections were put down there was no attempt to interfere with the State Governments in Massa chusetts and Pennsylvania. So also •in the city of Baltimore, whose history showed frequent insurrec tions against lawful authority. It had gained the soubriquet of Mob-Town, but the character of the city was not forfeited when the mobs ware put down and its Government remained intact. Mr. Davis argued from these examples that the rights of the seceded States under the Union were unimpaired. Feb. 12.—Mr. Sherman introduced a bill de ' daring the State of Alabama restored to the right of representation in Congress. Judiciary Committee. Nlr. Yates, from the Committee ou Territories, re ported a bill to provide for the adm ission of Colo rado into the Union, and gave notice that he would call it up next week. Mr. Sumner c tiled up his resolution of inquiry on the outrage on a coloured employe of the Senate by a railway coaiuctor. He stated that he ha I just received a letter from the . secretary of the railroad, informing h im that it was in the hauls of a receiver appointed by a rebel judge in Alexandrit named Tito:tits, to whose ma lign outrage it Wa3 to be attributed. II a the writer the power the rebel sc)undrel who perpetrated the outrage woald be diemissel, bat if damages were awarded the innocent company would have to pay them. Mr. Cragin said the receiver was no rebel scoundrel, but a friend of his and a loyal man. Mr. Conness thought the proper remedy for such out rages was to build a 11 , 3 W railroad connecting Wash ington with the country, and he proposed to intro duce such a measure at once.

A CHANCE FOR CANIAL. Many of the wheat laden vessels which leave our city . for England take from one to two hundre d tons of copper ore. In this manner some thousands of to ns of California copper find their way to Swansea every year. Five j sia thou sand tons have gone this year up to th is date, wi in cludes the Pasithea's cargo of 800 tons. At the same time every particle of the manufactured is copper, brass, and .. Sheathing metal used on this coast imported, princi pally, from Great Britain. In this respect wo are pre cisely in the same condition the Atlantic States occupied for many years in regard to cotton fabrics. We furnish the raw material in the greatest abundance, pay the freight to England, • pay the cost for its manufac ture and a profit on the business, pay freight for the return of the manufactured article, and pay the duties ou Me 'eleinitiOnalized copper, brass, and sheathing metal used in this country. It seems incredible that there should be so much differonco in the price of labour as to forbid the im portation of skilled operatives, and the conversion of our copper ores into the articles above enumerated. Ore gon is now turning out pig iron equal to the imported article, and the experiment, so far, has proved a paying success. The wages of workmen skilled iu ironmon gery are fully equal to those of the workers in copper, an.l if the one can be employed with paying results, we can con ceive no good reason why the other cannot bo made equally remunerative. We entertain no doubt that if this business were vigorously undertaken, California would shortly be able to turn out all the copper required for the use of the Pacific coast at a lower price than it can now be obtained for from abroad. An enterprise of the kind once fairly inaugu rated would materially enhance our ship-building interest, which . would in turn give empl o y men t to t h ousan d s o f me chanics, and enable us to supply the demands of our rapidly increasing commerce from our own resources, and with much less expense than at present. There is no lack of capital for an undertaking of such momentous importance. Money is becomipg almost a drug, and unless it can find employment at reasonable rates, the rates of interest must decline. In a case like this the investment would be per manent, consequently all the more desirable. This city has successfully competed with other places iu the manufac ture of many staple articles once thought impossible of profitable fabrication ; but steady determination and the abundance of native raw material invariably overcame all obstacles. If copp er ore can li e pro fi ta b ly reduced an d re fined in this city, the immediate and resultant benefits would be almost incalculable. MERCANTILE SHIP NEWS.

In addition to the sum necessary to pay interest and maturing the funded debt, an amonnt is to be appropriated, in cluding said interest and maturing debt, and the one per cent. as aforesaid provided for, shall amount to $135,000,000 per annum, which shall be applied to the reduction of the debt in lieu of the sinking fund contemplated by Act of February 25, 1862. The present Five -twenty Bonds may, at the expira tion of five years, at the option of the holder, be ex changed for the New Bonds, and such as are now redeemable shall be presented for exchange before November next, and not thereafter, and the residue not later than six months after the expiration of five years from date. Lawful money of the United States and the New Bonds are to be exchanged for each other when presented to the Treasury, unless the amount of United States Notes outstanding shall be equal to four hundred millions, or un less the United States shall have resumed pay ment in coin for its notes. The last section pro vides that any contract hereafter made, specifi cally payable in coin shall be legal and valid, and may be enforced according to terms. Mr. Hender son, from the Committee on Finance, reported a bill to amend the Act providing for the issue of a national currency. It repeals the limitation of $300,000,000 as the amount of national bank notes, and authorises the issue, to banking associations organised under its provisions, of circulating notes to the amount of 80 per cent. on the par value of the " consolidated debt funds" deposited as secu rity, but not exceeding th e proportion to their paid up capital now prescribed by law. Existing banks are required to substitute the new funds for those DOW deposited within one year from the passage of the bill, on a penalty of forfeiture of the bonds and winding up their affairs. When the amount of all notes exceeds $700,000,000 it shall be reduced to $250,000,000 by retiring or cancelling, Mr. Drake spoke on the Supplemental Reconstruction Bill. He was still for war with the open-faced rebels in the South and the unwashed Democrats in the North. On Mr. Sumner calling up the joint resolution for representation at the Havre Maritime Exhibition, Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, asked, " Would France sand horses to the Show at Springfield ? He wanted reciprocity in these matters." Mr. Sumner pointed out the difference between a national exhibition and a municipal show. If the Horse Show at Spring field was under the Government, and an invitation sent to France to be represented, it would be cour teously received and responded to. The bill was passed—yeas 21, nays 1 9 ; and the Senate ad journed. F e b. 7.—Mr. Sumner presented the memorial of the American Statistical Society relating to the metrical system of weights, measures, and coins. The blanks aathorising the Secretary of the Trea sury and the Postmaster-General to appoint spe cial agents were filled in 25. A motion was made to strike out the five special agents of the Secretary of State. Rejected—ayes, 8; nays, 30. The names of the agents, date of appointment, and sums re ceived it is proposed to report to Congress. The amendment was opposed by Mr. Sumner as infring ing a time-honoured custom, and rejected. The provisions of the bill continued to be discussed, debated clause by clause. The bill, in addition to the Act regulating the Tenure of Civil Offices, was passed—yeas, 22 ; noes, 9. Also a bill authorising the Northern Minnesota Ilailroad Company to build WEDNESDAY.

A landing will be built from the river, and all the appointments of the ground bid fair to be perfect, a pavilion having been de signed for shooters, as at Paris, and an aviary being pro mised, so that birds will always be in readiness. In addi tion to the shooting there is to be a clubhouse, and various sports will be provided for, such as cricket, American skittles, bowls, archery, croquet for the lady friends of subscribers, and in time tennis and raquets. Members can be elected by recommendation up to the Ist of May, after which period the ballot will come into force. [ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway's Ointment and Pills. — Many persons neglect to take the commonest precautions against illness which they are exposed to, future suffering or probably danger. Colds, coughs, and oppression at the chest should be removed without delay by rubbing this cooling derivative unguent twice a day upon the skin covering the chest, and its sanatory action should be au mented by the use of Holloway's pills as propounded in their accompanying directions. The same means dili gently carried out will relieve influenza, asthma, short ness of breath, palpitation, and almost every other pectoral complaint. Be the cause of the malady known or un known matters not, Holloway's remedies aro competent to expel all corruptions from the system, to regulate disor dered functions, and to restore nervous tone.

It consists of something like 500 'closely-printed pages, and its compilation is a work evidently of great labour and carefully collated . and valuable statistical information, shewing the rise and progress of this important institution, as an adjunct to the success' of the great volunteer move ment. As an example of the progressive success it has achieved, it is shewn that, whilst in the first year after the formation of the association the number of prizes competed for were only 67, and the money value a little over £2,000, in 1867 the number of prizes had risen to 935, amount ing in value to the large sum of upwards of £ll,OOO. With regard to the shooting there had also been between the two periods a marked and progressive improvement in the Volunteer and Enfield All-comers' competitions, although a similar amount of increased perfection is not to be found in those which refer to smallbore arms. It has been a complaint, and a just one, against the council,.that they have invariably had a favOurable inclination to the smallbore branch of the competitions, even amounting, as has frequently been alleged, to unfairnes3, when, if there was any favouritism at all, it had a right to be claimed on behalf of those who carry, and who manfully enter the lists with the national volunteer weapon. This feeling accounts for the desire of the council in their report to endeavour to palliate the retrograde movement with re gard to shooting with smallbore rifles by hints that bad weather had much to do with the decline. This, howeter, will not be satisfactory to the mass of volunteers, or even to smallbore shots, who consider that the prestige which once attached to smallbore shooting has been seriously endangered, and the number of competitors restricted, by the introduction of expensive match rifles, the practical value of the extraordinary accuracy of which has lost much by the delicacy of the mechanism requisite to give effect to their capabilities, as well as their costliness. On the con• trary, the Enfield appears 'to hold its own, and when ,the volunteers shall be armed with the :weapon in its converted state as a breechloader, there can be little doubt that it will beCome more popular than ever. ' The bad weather which prevailed during the latter part of the Wimbledon meeting is referred to as a cause why the balance-sheet does not present so favourable an appearance as on former occasions, and it will appear to the general public an astounding thing that it does so, as there can be no denying the fact that through the visit of the Belgians and the Sultan there were at least double the number of people paid for admission to the grounds on the days set apart for the reception that ever paid before. The profit is stated at £1,900, but as the report admits that £2,300 extra in gate-money was taken, arising out of the visit of the Sultan and the Belgians, it is to be supposed that but for these 'exceptional circumstances and special attractions the late meeting would scarcely have paid its expenses. Although in some departments there would appear to have been not only a prudent, but even niggardly economy ob served, in others the expenditure has been of a most extra vagant character. Under the head of works a sum of £3,000 is expended, £2,500 under those of pay and allow ances, and £l,OOO in expenses of the camp. The reserve fund of the association has, however, now reached the respectable balance of £lO,OOO. A RECENT FENIAN OUT R-4 GE. The Cork Examiner gives the following particulars of the late attack upon the residence of the Rev. Mr. Leslie, and his gallant defence:—" Between nine and ten o'clock on Thtrsday night Mr. Leslie's family were disturbel by the tramp of a number of men hurriedly approaching the house, followed by a loud knocking at the front door. Mr. Leslie went himself to the door to ascertain the cause of it. On his asking who the persons outside were, he was answered ' Police.' He then asked what they wanted. A voice, seemingly that of a person in authority, replied that they had with them a wounded man whom they brcught to Mr. Leslie to receive the rites of the Church, as he appeared to be in a dying state. Suspecting a stratagem, Mr. Leslie went to one of the upper windows to reconnoitre the party before opening the door. The night being dark, he could not distinguish the features or the dress of the men, but he saw enough to con vince him that they were not a party of police. The rev. gentleman acted with vigour and presence of mind. He immediately called up his servant men, of whom there were, we believe, three in the house, and bid them procure fire arms. He at the same time .gave orders to the female domestics to ring an alarm bell, which had been erected on the roof of the house, in anticipation of some such exigency as that which had occurred. The Rev. Mr. Leslie had acquainted the constables at the neighbouring police stations of his having the bell on the premises, and had concerted with them that its sound was to be a signal of danger. Oa hearing the bell the men outside the house knew that their stratagem had failed, and their leader threatened that if the door of the house were notwepened to them they would-forea—it said that all they wanted was arms, and that if admitted they would molest no one. The Rev. Mr. Leslie, who bad armed himself with a rifle, going to one of the • upper windows, declared that• he would allow no one to enter the house, and warned the intruders that the police were coming to his assistance. An attempt was then made to force open the door, the men"pressing their shoulders against the panels. Seeing that the door was too strong to be forced, some of the party began firing at it with their revolvers, while others went to the window to ascertain .whether admittance was to be gained in that way. The Rev. Mr. Leslie then fired a shot at some of the men within range. This drew the fire of the whole party upon the window, and several bullets flew through the glass, passing heartlessly through the room. Mr. Leslie reloaded, and again fired at his assailants, but could not see whether his shot took effect. While the fusilade was going on the alarm bell was kept loudly eanging to draw succour to the little garrison. The discharge of revolvers was kept up for some time, until the assailants had satis fied themselves that they could neither terrify the occu pants of the house into a surrender nor force an entrance. None of the people in the house had been injured by the fusilade, and it is not supposed that the shots discharged from the house took effect, as Mr. Leslie's object was rather to terrify than to strike his assailants. In a short time after the party had retired the police arrived. A close search of the ground and neighbourhood was made but no discovery of importance was made, and no arrests were effected. An inspection of the exterior of the house revealed numerous traces of the attack." THE ATJACK ON BARON BUDBERG. The following letter gives details of the attack on ttl3 Aussian Ambassador while on his journey to- France : " I had taken the train at Cologne to proceed to Paris. When we reached Verviers the passengers got out, and I went with a friend to breakfast in the refreshment-room. A gentleman took his seat at the table next to ours, and I recognised him to be Baron de Budberg, who was returning from St. Petersburg. While I was mentioning this to my companion, a man of distinguished appearance, and whose features were not unknown to me, approached the ambassador, addressing him in French, with a Good morning, baron.' The latter looked up, and with an accent of surprise replied, also in French, Ah ! You here The other then spoke, but in Russian, and in a very animated tone. The baron said a few words in the same language, evidently for the purpose of calming the gentleman ; but the latter resumed with increased vehemence, and at last struck the ambassador a blow with his closed hand and attempted to draw a cane-sword. My friend rushed on him and took the weapon away. The stranger then drew a revolver from his pocket and took aim at Baron de Budberg, who stepped back, calling out, Arrest him, he is mad !' One of the attendants rushed forward, and seizing the assailant by the arm, forced the pistol from his grasp. This scene naturally caused great emotion in the room. The police were sent for and the stranger taken into custody. He• turned out to be Baron de Meyendorff, son of the well-known Russian diplomatist, and subject to fitg of mental alienation, at which times he seeks quarrels with the most inoffensive persons. A short time back at Paris, in an access of this nature, he insulted and challenged a French gentleman, M. de A duel was arranged, but friends interposed, in consideration of the mental condition of the baron. The Frenchman went to the Russian Ambassador and asked, as a vindication of his honour, for a letter attesting the insanity of his oppo nent. The document was drawn up and delivered. Since that occurrence M. de Meyendorff has meditated vengeance against the ambassador. Knowing that he was daily ex pected to return to Paris, this insane gentleman went to Bologne, whence he proceeded every morning to Verviers in order to intercept the ambassador and accomplish his object. At the request of Baron de Budberg, the unfor tunate gentleman has been detained at Verviers under strict surveillance, but with such consideration as the state of his health and the position of his family demand. His relatives have been communicated with by tele graph." Edward Fifield, a Sussex labourer, was charged a few days since before the Chichester bench with poaching •on the estate of Sir J. 0 . Jervoise, Bart., M.P., and on land in the occupation of Mr. A. H. Hall. The man was undoubtedly guilty, two pheasants having been found in his possession, and the chairman, (Mr. H. W. Freeland) sentenced him to imprisonment with hard labour for three mouths for the first offence, to further imprisonment with hard labour for three months for the second offence, and at the expiration of this term of six months to find two securities in each for his good behaviour for a year, with the alternative, if he could not obtain the said securities, of undergoing a third term of nine months' imprisonment with hard labour -•-, ?1, ... d E 1 oe, r.. 0 = . 2 a a -, 7-, . .4 4 v FA .--. 0 ...., ga 0 "a . g F: re ; .-4 • 1-4 M1N111.111.11
