The unfinished business yesterday, which

for printing large number Of Map Of the
Southern Coast by Chas. Wilkes, TO which
Mr.. Clifford had moved an amendment, d.
recting the work TO be done by the Printers
Of the House. Mr.. Clifford now modified
his amendment. Mr.. Smith opposed the
Resolution, from desire 10 retrench all 10.
necessary expenses. The previous ques.

atived 80 to "a. So the resolution was re.
jec,ed,
The House then took up the bill provid.

The pending question was on reducing the

Mr. DAVIS, who was entitled to the floor,
declined speaking further on the subject,
and moved the previous question, which
was ordered to be taken and carried 50 10

Several attempts were made to obtain a
reconsideration, to recommit, &c. which
failed, and the bill was read the third tins
and passed.
The Red River Raft bill was next taken
up and debated. bot the House adjourned,
without taking any question on the bill.

In the House of Representatives, on Mon.
day, Mr.. Davis Of Indiana, from the Com.
mtlee on The Printing Of the House, moved
that the Committee be allowed till the 9Th

the absence Of Mr. Black, their Chairman,
which, after some objection -4s agreed to.

fore the House was, the instructions pro.
posed TO be given TO the Committee in re.
ference to the Cumberland Road, and that
Mr.. Bell was entitled to the floor.
Mir. Lincoln suggested to the Chair, that
by an express rule of the House, this day
had been set apart for the reception Of petit.
tons. The Chair replied, that as the
Cumberland Road, which came up by petit
ton, had been taken up on The last petition
day and debated, but not concluded, that
subject now came up, Of course, as unGDisR.
ed business.
After further objection from Messrs.
Lincoln, Adams and others, Mr.. Davis
moved the previous question, which was car.
RED, 100 to 81.
The decision Of the Chair being sustain.

Mr.. B. spoke till o'clock, when Mr..

place, he would modify his amendment, so
as to leave the amount discretionary to be-
appropriated to the Road for the year $40.

He is said 10 have succeeded in manutac.
turing glasses, which enables the observer
to look al the sun without having his OBJ
servatons at all affected by its rays. BY
means Of these glasses the sun appears Of a

stated to have observed on the ID inst, an
unusual nunber of spots on the suns DISC,
and having made an addition TO his appur.
aius, he perceived al quarter before nine,
on that day, small black spot entirely free
from penumbra, and OF perfectly spherical
form, which had advanced upon the disc,
describing an arc Of about seven minutes.
Reiterated observation convinced him that
it had in the mean time advanced towards
the suns limb to the extent OF two minutes
aud thirty seconds, Al three minutes after
zine when MIR. Decuppls attempted to make
new observation, the spot had disappear.
ed. The perfectly round figure of this spot,
its blackness, the smalness of It's diameter,
It's motion, and the absence Of penumbrn,

proofs that it was a small planet hitherto
undiscovered, which was passing over the
suns disc.
