In Congress, Yesterday,

In the SENATE, the Compromise bill re-
eeived its death blow, after losing, drop af-
ter drop Of its blood at the hands of our
Congressional Sangrados. The process,
which presents curious case of political
surgery, will be found at length in the tele-
graphic detailed report.
In the House, Mr.. CRowELL reported
bill enabling the President to negotiate
treaties with the Indians south and west Of
the Missouri, on the northern boundary Of
Texas and about New-Mexico. The bill
contains an appropriation of two hundred
thousand dollars and was referred to Com
mittee Of the Whole A lively skrimmage
took place between Mr. BIssELL and Mr..
CARTIER in a debate in the Committee of
the Whole, touching the appropriation of
fifteen thousand dollars for military cree.
tions near Detroit. No business of impor-
lance was transacted.

EUROPEAN News by the Canada, is the pas
cage Of the infamous law in the French As
