The Homestead Bill.

This measure, which has occupied large
share Of attention in the House Of Representa-
tives during the session, was carried through
its third reading, and passed, yesterday, by a
very large majority-ayes l07, noes Sc.
The bill as it now stands will be found in
our Congressional report. A perusal Of it leaves
an impression that there is rather material
discrepancy between the first and sixth sections.
The first provides that any person who is the
head Of family and citizen Of the United
States, or who had become citizen prior to
January last, shall be entitled, free of cost, to
one hundred and sixty acres Of Government
land on condition Of occupancy for five years.
The sixth section enacts, however, that any
individual now resident in this country, and
who, before seeking benefit from this bill shall
declare his intention to become citizen, shall
be also entitled to free grant on the condition
specified. This provision clearly nullifies the
restriction imposed by the first clause.
Two other features Of the bill are these /:
that it excludes from its benefits parties already
in the possession of land, or who may sell land
with an intention to obtain free grant; and
that the land acquired under its regulations
shall not be held liable for debts contracted
prior to the issuance of the patent.

The Accident to Mr.. wsbater.

We append an extract from a private letter
communicating more minute account Of the
accident to Mr. WEBSTER than has hitherto
been published. 1t is from the pen Of gentle
man who had ap opportunity Of learning accu-
ralely the circumstances he narrates:
"fou will have heard of an accident 10 Mr..
webster on Saturday morning in falling from
carnage. The day was very fine, and he had set
out 10 make visit to Plymouth, ten or twelve
miles distant from Marshfield, accompanied by
Mr.. Lanman, his secretary. They were in large
buggy, or old fashioned pbaton with two horses
When about nine miles from Marshield. the ring
bolt, or transom- bolt-whch from the fore part of
the carriage goes down through the perch into the
forward axletree, and so connects the fore wheels
and the hind wheels--broke, and the body of the
carriage OF course fell to the ground, throwing Mr.
webster and Mr.. Lanman out, headlong, with
some violence. Fortunately, however, the car
rage was ascending a hill and going slowly;
had it been otherwise, they could hardly have
escaped with their lives In falling, Mr. Webster
threw his hands forward to protect his head from
the ground, and this brought the whole weight of
his body upon the hands and arms-turnng back
the hands, and very much spraining the wrists
The shock Of the whole system was very great
with no injury beyond little scratching of the
forehead upon the gravel. Nor was there any in
ternal injury. II was thought at first that no bone
was injured in any degree, but | have since been
informed that one of the bones in the left wrist was
slightly fractured. but not as to be dislocated.
IL may probably make that wrist stiff for some
time. Another carriage was procured, and Mr..
Webster was taken to his home. On inquiry, this
Sunday morning, am informed that the pain,
though very severe last night, has abaod this morn
ing, but the swelling has not. Mr., Webster can.
not use his hands at all and it is feared that several
days will pass before he will be able TO leave hs
room.
"a similar accident happened to Mr.. Webster
more than twenty years ago. and his carriages have
since been provided with chain or some other
continuance to supply the place of the bolt tempo
rarily, in case the bolt should break With. the
exception of the phaton used yesterday, all so
provided, and that was not built originally for his
use -

Few Congressional districts will be able to

Although two gentlemen were baloied for both

the old hero. MIR Benedict, who chosen, is an
old soldier in the Wing ranks. No man in the
State has done more, during the last twenty years.
to promote the interests Of the Wing party. And,
although he has first choice for the Presidency,
he will be among the most effective laborers for the
election Of the nominee Of the convention, whether
that choice ia gratified not. Like those who
send him, he belongs to class Of Wings who never

at should be taken for granted that every Wing

these preliminary caucuses constitutes a pledge to
do so. And this ia the sentiment and determine
ton of all true Wings everywhere. The National
Convention 10 the tribunal to which, by common
consent, the selection Of candidate has been re-
ferred. Personal preferences properly govern in
the selection Of delegates to that convention. But

Mr.. BENEDICT, it will be remembered, is the
delegate whose praises as an unfinching ScoTT

while applauding his supposed predictions,
does him the justice to admit that he will be
found amongst the most effective laborers in

nomination by the National Convention. The
second paragraph shows that what is true of
Mr.. BENEDICT is true of all--or nearly all
the New York Wings who have been described
as opposed TO Mr.. FILLMORE. If the state
ments of the Albany Journal can be believed,
all these gentlemen will work ardently and eff
ficiently for Mr.. FILLMORE if he be the nomi-
nee. With that admission before us, we are
curious to see how the journals that have been
the busiest Of Mr.. FILLMoRE's detractors can
reconcile 1t with the threat that the State of
New York would poll majority Of 10000
against him. Where are the 10000 recreants

The Naral Dry Docks Of tie United States. BY
CHARLES b. STUART, Engineer-in Chief of the
United States Navy. ITO, PIP. 2lS. New York
CHAnLEs b. NORTON.
We are indebted to the author (says the Albany
Rfgister) for copy ofthis very valuable and truly
interesting work II has been prepared with an
elaborate completeness of finish in all its depart
ments, and ia brought out, regardless Of cost in
style superior to any thing in the book line ever
before accomplished in the United States. The
governments Of Europe sometimes produce works
of this character in gorgeous style and at enor-
nous expense; but in elegance of finish, faultless
typography, paper and binding, and the skiful
execution OF engraved illustrations. they scarcely
excel this extraordinary result of private and indi
vidual enterprise
Gen. Stuart deserves the hearty praise of his
countrymen for the splendid manner in which he
has recorded and commemorated those great ma.
tional works-the dry docks Of the United States !;
and we hope the success of this, bis first under
taking Of the kind, will meet with such liberal
reception on the part of the people to enable him
to go forward as ia his purpose, and bring OUT, in
the same style, q second number of the series, on
the NAVAL and Mail Steamers of the United
States" to be followed by third on the +" Rail
ways of the United States" He has given the
| country. at the cost of its production, work OF
WHICH bue peopic nave every reason 10 DC very
proud. and which demonstrates our ability to rival
the oldest nations of the world in the character and
magnitude of our public works, and in the skill OF
describing and illustrating them.
In this work we have an historical description,
embracing the fullest details. OF the Granite
Dry Dock at the New York navy yard, the Float
ing Sectional Dry Dock, Philadelphia, and the
Floating Balance Dry Dock, Portsmouth, together
with the mode Of constructing and working the
dry docks at the principal naval stations Of tho
United States. The statistics Of these great public
works, in addition TO the engineering descriptions.
are given at length. comprising statement Of the
materials and their cost. the contract prices Of the
various kinds Of machinery, the expenditures for
labor, the names Of the contractors, and great
amount Of valuable information on every point re-
ating TO the construction Of the docks. The VOL
ume is splenddly illustrated by twenty four en-
cravings steel.
This valuable work is gracefully and appropri-
ately dedicated TO the President Of the United
States, MiLLARD FILLMORE. Il should find a place
on the shelves of every public library in the Union
and the private library Of no American will be
complete without it. II is for sale at our book

part of the prosecution in the case of the United

TO the jury. they retired, and had not rendered
verdict when the court adjourned.
RoBpERY-The store Of Messrs. Hamilton &
Dyer. Pennsylvania avenue, between ~ and Sd
streets, was forcby entered few nights since. and
robbed Of sundry goods and small amount Of
money. An ingenious article, found upon the
premises, as shown US by Capt. Goddard, affords
strong evidence Of it's having been the property of
expert housebreakers, and which was doubtless
left in the hurry Of retrcating.
CANAL NAvIoArIoS- Water has recently been
let in the canal for distance of some four miles
above Georgetown, and our neighbors purpose at
an early day to open such communication, by
means of the canal, with Alexandra, as will Sc
cure free commercial intercourse between those
places.
