Decidedly Funny.--The following
amusing passage occurred during Gen.

on the 10th instani:
''Mr. .Morehead inquired ifthe Hon.
Senator considered the present propo-
sit;on as eonfning the President in the
disbursement of the money to the pur-
pose to be specified in the treaty, as
the resolution Of the last session did,
Ii Alluding to the Wilmot proviso pro-
hibiting slavery in the territory to be
acquired from Mexico.
"Mr. Cass said his understanding Of
the proposition was, that the money
was not to be paid until treaty was
agreed upon. The payment was to
precede the treaty not to follow il.

Senator allow me

Alarming occurrence.
GRAFTON STEAL MILLS, !,
Grafton Harbor. Jan. 9.


Sir:--A most singular phenomenon
occurred at this place yesterday after
noon, about three o'clock, which may
be thought worthy of place ia your
paper. The lake was calm and the
wind in the north, when suddenly the
lake recedcd from the shore in one i'm
mense wave, upwards of three hun
bred and fifty feet, leaving the beach
perfectly dry for that distance; it seem
ed to gather itself into o vast conc, and
Immediately returned in one unbro-
ken wave, four feet higher than it usu-
ally is, burying the wharf completely,
and ovcrnowing lis usual boundaries
upwards Of hundred yards, sweeping
every thing before it, accompanied
by a dreadful noise. This happened
some eight or nine different times,
gradually decreasing in violence till
the lake resumed its usual appearance.
You know the position Of the wharf
yourself, and you would hardly credit
the fact, that at the end Of the wharf,
where there is generally twelve feet
six inches Of water, admitting the
largest steamboats,, there was only two
feet Of water left; and on its return the
water stood foot deep in the engine
house, which is over two hundred
yards from the beach.
Do you suppose this phenomenon
was general, or do you suppose IL may
possibly be connected with some vol
canic action working its way to the
surface nj this particular placer The
only sufferer here was Mr.. Davis,
whose boat lay, as he supposed, high
and dry alongside the Harbor Com
pany's scow, which latter was filled
bodily, and went smash on the top OF
the boat.

GENERAL LAND OFrIcE,(
February IL, lS47,

Gentlemen herewith enclose a
printed copy of the Presidents proc
lamation of the sth of September
last, for the sale OF the reserved miner
al lands, in Illinois, under the act OF
18th Of July. ls46, entitled Gan act to
authorize the President Of the United
States TO sell the reserved mineral
lands in the States Of Illinois and Ar
kansas, and Territories OF Wisconsin
and Iowa, supposed to contain lead
ores"
In the class Of lands the minimum
price of which is fixed by The Sd sec
ton Of that act, at two dollars and fiji
ty cents per acre, and which must be
offered in quarter quarter sections
when necessary to include mine, you
will embrace all tracts which on or be-
fore the day OF offering you shall be
satisfied from any reliable source what
ever, contains mine or mines of lead
ore, actually discovered and being
worked, and you will endeavor by
every means in your power to ascer-
tain all such tracts by that day, and
make a note of them.
Enclosed ] send you copy Of the
list of outstanding lead mine leases in
Illinois, marked A, furnished by the
Ordinance Bureau Of the War De-
parlment, which you will have care
fully compared with the original leases
in the bands of the Superintendent Of
the Lead Mines, and all the quarter
quarter sections in which these leases
are situated, will of course be en-
braced in the class above mentioned at
the increased minimum.
The duration of all these lead mine
leases, it appears, is twelve months,
consequently, the above mentioned
last will indicate those which will be
unexpied and undetermined at the
close of the public sale; and unless
those unexpired leases, in either of
them, shall be surrendered or relin-
pushed in writing before such time by
the lessees or their legal representa-
tiyes in any Of the ordinary forms,
you will not offer them for sale, as d.
rected by the proyiso of the above
mentioned section of the act. AS
some OF the leases may expire or be
relinquished, after the tract or tracts
embracing them shall have been passed
in the regular order of offering, as
prescribed in the circular Of the 22d
July, 1914, you will consider that cir
cuIsr so far modified as to enable you
to offer such tracts on the day which
the leases shall expire or be relinquish-
cd, on or before the last day of the /
public sale, if circumstances Of which /
YOU will Judge shall render it advisable |
for the public interest to do so.
With your monthly returns Of sales,
which will be made 10 the usual form,
YOU will please forward a complete list
of al the tracts classified by you as
continuing lead mines, The minimum
price Of which is fixed at two dollars

On the 18th February, resolution
offered by Mr.. Yulce, Of Florida. pass
ed the Senate of the United States,
expelling Thomas Richie, the editor
Of the Union and Government Printer,
from the precinctsof the Senate Cham
Der. The vote on the resolution stood
yeas 81 TO 81. The charge against
the Government Editor was, that he
had charged the Senate with treason,
by admitting an article into his col
umns, with a commendatory notice,
of which the following are extracts:--
From The Union.
.7He .4rnag BiH-A correspon-
dent of this evenings Union has pain
ted with strong and indignant feelings
the rejection Of the army bill by the
Senate Of the Omitted States. We are
as much astonishcd by the grounds on
which it was rejected, as by the failure
of measure so long agitated, so much
demanded by patriotic people, so es-
sential to the vindication of our rights
and our HONOR" Sc.
Extract from the article Of the Union's
correspondent thus referred to.
I'm the Senate of the United States
Yesterday, the Mexicans achieved ano-
Their victory. The bill for organizing
ten regiments Of regular troops having
been submitted, with its amendments,
TO committee of conference to the two
Houses, that committee unanimously
agreed on report, which was submit
ted to them for their approval. The
House Of Representatives. at once a
dopted the report by very large ma
Iiority. In the Senate it was, in its
most important feature, rejected by a
majority Of six.
s.If Santa Anna, Ampudia, or any
other Mexican General could snatch
from our soldiers corresponding vic
tory, we should place them upon the
same elevation where their compatri-
OTIS, friends, and fellow soldiers in The
Senate of the United States now
stand"
The National Inte,ligencer remarks
on the above extracts:-"And what is
the act of the Senate which is thus SO
insultingly denounced in the Union
Why, simply, that the Senate has not
thought fit to surrender its constitutional
privilege of passing on appointments
to Office. For this it is that the Sen.
ate is scandalously assailed in the Elk
ecutive journal as achieving victory
for the Mexicans, and as the compQt-
riots, friends and .teiloso-soldiers Of
Santa Anna and .4mpudiat We
confess we have never witnessed be-
fore in any public journal SO gross an
outrage.
