BY THIS MORNINGS MAT.

The Mail this morning brings intelligence Of
Mr.. Clay's arrival at Natchez The Courier Of
that city says that he received by tremendou,
throng, and addressed in most beautiful and e..
quent manner BY f. L. Claiborne, Esq.
In his reply, which was brief and from his ca,
riage, Mr.. Clay remarked upon his desire to dives.
his visit altogether of public character and tia,
it should be unaccompanied with public cersDn
MES, as it was strictly of a private nature. H.
spoke Of the pleasure ne fel, at the uaisn Of N
parties in the matter of MS receptions of the e,.
cellent effects that must follow the conduct of mar,
" conflicts in liberal and generous spirit. wbs,
party conflicts nlnst occur; and Of the houessvap5
fair intentions of the masses Of all parties.
He declined to attend barbecue, 10 which h.
was invited, alledging that he wished his visi, 10
be private and No, public one, aud that is hs
accepted this invitation he could not decline many
which had reached him from other States.
~ Our Washington letter of Saturday failed to
reach us this morning. We make up the following
summary of proceedings in Congress from the
Globe !:
IN CONGRESS-. SATURDAY, Dec. II, 1872
The SENATE did not sit.
In the House Messrs. LEWIS and SHIELDS Of
Ala and Mr. GwIN of Miss. took thsir seats. Mr..
PROFIT has arrived but is too i'll to attend.
A bill was passed, introdaced by Hon. Mr.
THOMPSON, IN relation to land heretofore given TO
the Kentucky Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb.
MIR. EVERETT excited come laughter by siyisg
notice that he would soon ask leave TO introduce
bill to revive and establish the public credit.
After some unimportant matters, the Appro
priation Bill was again taken up, in Committee Of
the Whole, by vote of Sc ayes and SO noes.
Mr.. J. R. INGERsoLL entered into defence al
Mr.. Hsssler, whose history, connexicn with this
Government, sacrifices, services, attachments, and
qualifications, he nnutey detailed and cuogized.
Mr. REYNOLDS followed in reply-desiring the
work 10 be continued, but thinking that il Mr..
Hassler were incompetent TO superinteRd it, ne
should be superseded, as we had among US many
men abundantly qualified to do it. He thought
Mr.. II. ought to resign.
The debate upon this point was continued by
Mcssrs. WISE and TILLlNGHAsT, when MIR. GIL
AER, after some general remarks in favor of re-
tIenchment in the expenditures of Government,
moved to strike out 0,000 and insert see, OOOas
the appropriation for the Coast survey.
The amendment was accepted by MIR. Aycrigg,
who had moved to strike out the appropriation
and the Committee rose and reported progress
Several resolutions of slight general importance
were presented, when the House adjourned.
