LlGnTNlNG DESPATChES.
Telegraphed for the Burlington Hawk-Eye.
WAsHIxGTor, June II, 7,P.M.
sENArE.-The Bill to increase the rank and file
Of the army, and to encourage enlistments was re-
turned from the House with an amendment, in
lation to the proprety of mounting certain troops
discharged. The amendment was concurred in.
After morning business the omnibus bin was taken
up. Mr. Cass addressed the Senate, and handled Sc
verely the remarks made by Mr. Benton yesterday.
He regretted especially his illusions to the Chair
man of the Committee Of Thirteen. The Senator
from Missouri had truly said that ours great,
prosperous and happy country, but prosperous as
we are, trouble had arisen which was now under
discussion. A short time since the South was
threatened with the Wilmot proviso, and yet when
project was brought forward to arrest that meas
and settle the whole question, il met with the
most hostility from gentlemen representing the
South. On tho other hand, certain Senators from
the North and West, opposed Just as heartily,
an Abandonment of important considerations. If
he had had doubt of the justice Of the scheme,
this meeting Of extremes against it would have
removed it.
HousE.-Immediatey on assembling. the House
went into Committee OF the Whole, which contin-
ued entire session until adjournment.
