yond the detailed doiugs Of Congress given in
your report
The Senate is still in session. though it is 1cT
eigh, clock, with strong probability OF an old
fashioned night session. The Locos are deter
mined, il possible to prevent until tomorrow night
,he passage of the bill providing for the collection
and printing of the ancient Congressional Debates
BY Gales s. Seaton. as the only way of killing the
measure. Bills originating in either House can
not be sent to the other within the last three days
of The session, except by suspension of the rule,
which requires vote of two-thirds consequently
this must be passed before that time fail. Ben
ton is in one OF bis tantrums," and declares that
ne will stay all night and sleep OF the cushions in
the Senate Chamber.
WISE was nominated to-day for the mission to
France, but it is very questionable whether the
Senate will agree to the bargain Il is also some
wha; doubtful whether the nomination of Mr..
SPEScEa. which it is supposed will be sent Ito
morrow or next day, will be confrmed--or if j, be
it is by no means certain that PoRTFR who is said
TO be fixed upon his successor, will meet With
the same gaod fortune. He is said By the Penn
sylvanans e~en of his own party, to be very
small potatoes.
Ii rumored to-day that Judge McLEAs is to
be brought into the cabinet and that certain pri-
rate reasons may cause him TO be willing to leave
the honorable and permanent post he now holds
for one of so short and uncertain as that of
cabinet officer.
There is no doubt that the Administration would
be glad to bring him into The cabinet but 10 not
believe that he can be induced to leave the place
be now holds for anything they can give him. 1t
was understood a year and half ago that he re-
fused the post Of Secretary Of War, but would
have accepted the State Department. 1t is not
probable that he will now take an inferior place
even if that can tempt him
There are great many nominations before the
Senate, oil of which are to be disposed OF, in ad-
dition to other business, between this and Monday
night. Some of these nominations have been be.
