BY THE MAILS.

From Lhe National Intelligence, Of March 2.
The Session Of Congress terminated on Sat
urday night, in good order and in perfect har-
mony Both houses were adjourned size die,
at a quarter before one but 10 business was
done after l2 o'clock, excepting the mere form
Of the enrolment and signature OF some Of the
bills
The principal incidents of the last Congress.
have been laid before the public. Among
those of most importance, il the fact that the
bill to establish an Uniform System Of Bank
ruptcy did not pass. 1t was pushed, by The
irresistible force of the NJ issouri Question, too
near the verge Of the Session. % he finally oct-
ed OH, although disposition friendly 10 /; had
beeo manifested. Nj. Sergeant moved 10 take
, it up on Saturday last, but the house, by 70
votes 10 So, refused 10 consider 1t. Several
friends TO The bill voted against taking il up
on the ground that there was no probability Of
pressing 1t to decision on that day, even with
the aid of the previous question, which on .
bill of this description, The house would hard
ly have SANCTIONED.
The bill to reduce The annual appTopria-
tIon for the gradual increase Of the Navy, from
one million TO halt million, and 10 extendit
from three TO six years, became law. An
attempt Vas made by Mr.. Barbour, and failed
by one vote only, (67 70 Sc, to limit the APP
preparation thus reduced, 70 six years instead
OF three years, with view to building aud
housing the frames of the vessels, excluding
tor the preseGt any provision for their equip
ment.
The annual Military Appropriation bill had
nearly been lost, by a conflict between the
two houses on the item Of appropriation for the
expence Of forfcatons for the current year.
The House Of Representatives fixed upon
sum Of two hundred thousand dollars, specify
ing the particular objects to which il should
be applied. The Senate struck out the whole,
and proposed to insert in lieu thereof the gross
sum of four hundred thousand dollars. To
this amendment the House Of Representatives
disagreed /; and conference was the result.
which ended, just before l2 O'Clock, in the
Senate's receding from that and other amend
ments to the bill.
The details OF the bill providing for the oc-
cupation Of Florida, aud tor the settlement Of
claims according 10 the treaty with SPAN, gave
rise TO much debate; but HE bill dgslly be-
came law. The territorial appointments,
and the appointments Of commissioners under
the Spanish Treaty, may be made by the Pre-
sident ct the United States in the recess Of
Congress; and the act passed at so late an
hour on Saturday night, that no nominatiqns
were MADE under II.
The loan bill has become law. When II
was under consideration, in the House Of
Representatives, a motion was made 10 strike
out four and insert FIVE, SO as 10 make the
loan fve millions five hundred thousand to-
lars, instead Of $500 600; but The motion
was negatiyed. Ii The Senate, The loan was
increased to FIVE millions; TO which, with
much reluctance, the House at last agreed
