We have news from Vienna that the American
Charge was not invited to the Grand Ball OF the
first Minister of the Crown. The Turkish ana
Swiss Envoy received similar back-handed CON-
plments, and had no dance. We have room
this morning only to refer to the dispatch.
In the L. s. Senate yesterday, Mr.. Clarkes
Intervention Resolution was postponed TIL Mon
day next. As Mr. Cass is boiling over with
speech Mr. Clarke promises to give him
| chance on Monday or Tuesday. Mr.. Stockton
presented petitions for line OF steamers to Gal
way, and another Sir John Franklin expedition.
Mr.. Hamlin reported against remission Of duties
on several articles for Religious uses. Mr..
Shields introduced bill granting land for relief
of the INDECENT Insane Several matters re-
| ceiyed their incipient, progressive and hnal
| touches, and then the Census Printing Corrup-
ton Bill was taken up, an amendment offered
and then postponed Mr. Felch spoke on the
Iowa Railroad Grant Mr. Bell took the floor
ON the same subject. The Senate then went into
Executive Session, and afterward adjourned.
In the House, after some preliminary business,
the subject of employing newspapers to publish
the laws &c, was taken up. Mr.. Smart, who
first introduced the measure, said he wished to
disconnect the Press from the control Of the
Government, and 10 secure this end he proposed
to have the laws published in two papers IN
every Congressional District, in place of, as now,
| in two in each State. That is rather a smart
idea-to diminish Executive power by giving it
the means of controlling 466 in place OF 62 papers.
| This Paradox so struck the members Z" all IN
heap" that after a brief consideration of the
Bounty Land Warrant bill, they adjourned.
In our State Senate yesterday the day was
principally occupied with discussion on refer
ring the Canal Contracts to the Court OF
Appeals, against which the Committee had
unanimously reported. We find that Dir. Nc
Murray, Of this City, declared the Canal bill
unconstitutional, and charged his friends Justly
with change of front. The Opposition were
rather tonguetied on that point during the cleo
ton. The Report was agreed to by vote of
% to2. After some miscellaneous business, Mr..
Hoyt's Tariff Resolution was then taken up and
discussed till the adjournment.
In the House the Militia bill was taken up and
considered. Nothing else of much interest was
done
Gov. Boutwell,, of Massachusetts,, is carrying
out his principles, by removing Wings and ap-
pointing Coalitionists. AS this wasthe only prln-
ciple the Coalition entertained during the last

Gov. Lowe, of Maryland, is going ahead of
that, for he is removing the old officers of his
own party to make room for more hungry appli-
cants.
