CONGRESSIONAL.

In the Senate to-day, after the transaction Of the
routine business which occupies the morning hour
and in the course Of which Mr. Pearce made some
rather heightened remarks in favor Of a memorial
from certain citizens praying for the settlement Of
the Oregon question by negotiation and compromise,
which elected brief rejoinder from Mr.. Fairfield
certain historical points relating to the question
OF arbitration-the specal order was taken up, and
Mr.. Evans concluded his remarks against the no.
tce Mr.. Reverdy Johnson has the floor for to-
morrow.
The House, after disposing Of resolution intro
dueed by Mr.. Henley, to print extra copies Of the
report Of the Commissioned Of Patents, resumed in
committee, the discussion Of the river and harbor
bill. Somewhere near the usual hour Of ad iourn-
ment, one Of those scenes took place which, if il
were not for the bad temper that generally charac-
terizes them and for their utter uselessness might
be denominated parliamentary frolics- A motion
had been made that the committee rise. This was
resisted and the result trial Of strength under
those various inventions and devices for the con-
sumption of time which the rules Of the House and
the parliamentary law recognise and sanction; as,
for instance, alternate motions to ad journ and for
nays. The struggle lasted an hour and fifteen min
utes, and ended as it had begun.
Complaints have occasionally been made that the
yeas and nays on motions to adjourn, thus made,
do not constitute part Of our record of proceed
ings The reason is plain one Members, the
most attentive and conscientious in the discharge Of
their duties, who have remained steadily at their
posts during the whole day, may at this late stage
of it be accidentally out; whilst those who have
been but little in their seats during the day-n or
out as chance may happen-may be found in them
about the usual hour Of adjournment, voting hero
ically against that motion. Others there who
vote "Nay," and Immediately thereafter leave the
hail. thus appearing to remain present when in fact
they are not By this means, the record itself is
made the instrument of quasi deception on the
constituent body
One word ofthe debate. Great anxiety is manifested
to obtain the Aoor though perhaps at period in the
history of Congress has such perfect indifference been
manifested towards its discussions, as that which
marks the debate on the river and harbor bill.
The motion to 60 into committee is the signal at
which the benches dispossessed of their tenants
and the hall becomes, almost in the literal sense,
empty. 1t is now something like twenty-eight
years since the debate on the subject first COM
menced. Almost everything about it is aged and
stereotyped. No votes changed and if con-
vincing arguments are used, there are but few
mournful listeners to whom they are addressed.
Notwithstanding this, the House has refused to ter.
inmate the debate until Tuesday Of next week, and
has adopted resolution to meet at ii o'clock to-
| morrow to give more room for the debate.

We were much interested and amused, to-day by
the numerical powers of new Zerah Colburn. He
performed with astonishing rapdity various sums in
the elementary rules Of arithmetic. Among others,
of figures set before him, consisting OF
columns ofconsiderable length each number consist
ing of L. ., 3, or figures at pleasureand one col
umn embracing as many as 25 numbers. ltappear-
ed to u.s. that before his eye could physically catch
the figures, he was ready to place the amount at the
foot of the column. He performed similar opera
tons in multiplication and division. The rapidity
with which he came to the result was really surpri-
sing. He has analysed the process by which he ar
rves at his conclusions, and is prepared to explain
it to his pupils in half an hour for $40. No learn,
no pay He talks Of preparing new system Of
arithmetic for the benefit of the community. His
name is Peter Deshong, from Lancaster county,
Pennsylvania, aged "a. His numerical bump, phre-
nologicOy considered seemed to be wonderfully de.
veloped.
