HARD SwEARING.-In the course Of the
proceedings in Whitney's case on Saturday,
Mr.. Wise said, in reply to Mr.. Thomas, Of
Nd that he was well satisfied, so far as him
self was concerned, to let the case rest up
on the evidence already presented. All that
was proved, in reference TO himself was tha,
he had let out one or two oaths, hs,unnecessarily,
perhaps, and few curses, which though a.
bundantly provoked from him by the culprit
before them, were improper undoubtedly in
the presence of the committee. He was
no advocate for profanity-but he must say,
tliat if finclined to such a vice, he had strong
authority for it in very high places. If any
honorable member of that body would visit
the White House and PROFOUND question or
two to "the greatest aud best" on the subject
of the Florida campaign, in the course Of the
next twenty. -four hours, he might be favored
with a specimen Of hard s,Oearing which
would cast all that had happened in the Com
mittee into dim eclipse. He would recon-
mend to gentlemen to make the experiment..

A bill TO increase the regular Array of the
United States to 12,000 men, passed both
Houses Of Congress on Thursday last. The
bill was earnestly opposed by Mr. Calhoun
and others, as measure for increasing the
patronage of the Executive and the expenses
of the Government. Estimates were present
ed showing that the Seminole war alone will
cost the nation fifteen millions of dollars
The Staff OF the Army is also to be re organ

CONGasss.-in the SENATE, on Friday
last, the time was mostly occupied on the
bill to remit the duties on goods destroyed
by the great fire in New York. II was final.
ly ordered to be engrosscd.
Mr.. Preston submitted Il resolution calling
for the proceedings Of the Court of Inquiry
in the case Of Gescral Scott. Mr.. p. pre-.
faced the resolution with some severe stric-
lures on the gross injustice with which that
distinguished officer had been treated by per-
sons high IN authority, which, with the debate
that followed, we regret that our limits do
not permit us to present. Referred to the
Committee on Military Affairs-yeas %.
Ia the HOUSE, much of the time was en-
ployed in the trial of X. M. Whitney.
In the SENATE, on Saturday, MI. Robbins
moved to postpone the orders of the day to
take up the resolution reported by the Libra
ry Committee, to appropriate 10000 dollars
for the purchase of Mr.. MADIsoN's posth,,-
nous works. After few remarks from Mr..
Calhoun in opposition to the motion, it was
agreed to, ayes ~. Mr.. Robbins then pro-
nounced an eloquent eulogy on the charas-
ter aud services Of Mr.. Madison, and strong
ly supported the propriety of the uppropria-
ton. The resolution was then ordered to be
cngSpssed for third reading.
The New York Fire bill was then passed.
In the HoJ OE, the examination Of witness
ses in the case of Rheuben NJ. Whitney was
again resumed, ard occupied NEST Of the
time. The Hon. John Garland, chairman of
the Select Committee, was then placed on
the stand; and furnished written answers to
the interrogations propounded to other wit
nesses, members Of the House. Mr.. Gar
lands replies are not given in the papers, but
it is believed they will materially qualify the
strongly colored and partisan statement of
Mr.. Fairfield, of Me. which we have given at
large in Thursdays proceedings.

in the Globe Of the 10Th inst, concluding with
the following sentence;
The ides Of supporting or sustaining an admins
trston 70 whose general policy Twas favorable, by

A species Of summary condemnation Of

else than deliberate design to injure us, we

the administration, as charged, by implication,
in his note. IL he can do SO, our columns

!" It is one Of the oldest, as it Is one Of the
ablest, democratic papers in the Union, and
