Mr.. MASON desired leave TO withdraw the memorial
and papers Mr. Rice late American consul at Acapulco
relative to certain outrages alleged TO have been commit
ted by the Mexican authorities the rights and person
Of the said CONSUL These papers had been referred to the
Committee Foreign Relations last session, but at
late period as to prevent my action them. The
documents had since been examined by him. together with
communication from the President relating TO the
subject and appeared manifest that great and cruel OPP
preston had been exercised towards the consul and
far they knew, without any redress having been OBJ
tanned Mr.. Rice wished the papers Withdrawn in order
that he might lay them before the present
with view to obtain that redress manifesty due both
to the consul and the Government Of the United States
The leave given, and the papers withdrawn ac-
cordingly
Mr.. BR0DHEAD desire to submit resolution and
give notice that will call il up in day two. The
resolution was read, as follows:
Resred That the Secretary Of the Treasury be required
procure so far practicable and furnish the the
Senate the Of the session Of Congress-
the following information viz The aggregate amount Of

ton bonds stocks other evidences Of debt held Europe
and other foreign countries the 30h june 1862 specifying

On motion by Mr.. GwIN, the Senate passed imme-
diaey to the consideration Of Executive business and
after time spent therein the doors opened
Mr. HOUSTON submitted the following resolution de-
carng his anxiety to bring the session close and his
wish TO return to his home:
Resored That unless the President Of the United States
shall have further communication make the will
journ Saturday next.
Mr. MASON objected to the consideration Of the reso-
luton at this time intmatng that it than likely
the President would have further communications make
in which event might be considered dscourteous
in the matter thus prematurely. He thought however,
that they would be ready to adjourn by Wednesday
Thursday Of the ensuing week.
On motion, the Senate adjourned.

interests be suddenly wantonly depressed Whenever
the Government sought reform Of the kind he considered
that it should be gradual in desperation not to pre-
udce interests which its act might have called nito
being. His object in introducing the resolution wes
kind
Mr.. BRODHEAD professed himself at some loss to-
derstand in what the Senator from Virginia pre-
fessed himself to be ga free trade man. because some
thing than three weeks that honorable Senator
had advocated what he M B considered the very worst
kind Of discrimination That Senator had argued at that
time in favor of repeating the duty all railroad iron.
Suppose duty to be taken off articles that catered
into general consumption where then the revenue to
be obained? He should like to know what the Senator
meant by his avowal that he free trade Did
he that he in favor of general repeal of all
duties and resort to direct taxaton Ii would really
from the fact of his advocating the entire abolition
of duty upon railroad iron. He ur. conld see no
difference between taking Oft the duty on railroad iron and
the other articles alluded to-
Mr. HUNTER could not have his consistency the
subject called ia question He had before stated the
in which he hGd used the phrase free trade
thought he had explicitly enough avowed the fact that
he in favor ofevying duties strictly prn
cipes and for faising much only was ndispensa
bly, necessary to economical administration Of the
Government The Senator from Pennsylvania had at
taoked also his Mr Hs position ia regard to the entire
abolition Of duty railroad iron, and intmated there
from that he be in favor OF direct taxation That
was necessary inference In the vete which he had
given he had been instructed by the Legislature Of his
State During the previous period he had avoided
mngng in the discussions on WE subject Of railroad ron
but had voted in accordance with instructions The whole
object of the resolution to ascertain point where
duty iron might be taken off without injury to the
manufacturing interest and reservng provision by law
in which duty shall be levied all iron where its price
should range below that point He knew many manufac
turers of the article who believed that it would form
basis for compromise but he did presume to say it
would nor could he do until the information OBJ
tanned The idea he conceived sufficiently plausible to
Justify him in calling for the informaton and he hoped
| the resolution would be adopted.
| The resolution was then agreed to.
Mr.. JAMES submitted the following resolution, which
was considered and agreed to:
Resooed That the Secretary Of the Navy be requested to
inquire whether will not be advantageous the Government
of the United States to establish naval depot at Newport
Rhode Island and that he report the Senate at its next
session.
The Senate then into Executive session. and after
time spent therein, the doors opened and the
Senate adjourned.

simplicity OF Dress.

Female lovlincss never appears to
SO good advantage as when set off by
simplicity of dress. No artist ever
decks his angel with feathers and gaudy
je%clry, and our dear women angels,
if they woull make good their title to
that name, should avoid ornaments,
which properly belong to Indian
squaws ard African princcsses, These
tinsclrlcs may serve to give effect on
the stage OR on the bali room hocr,
but in daily life there is no substitute
for the charm Of simplicity. A vulgar
taste is not to be disguised by gold or
diamonds. The absence of true taste
and refinement of delicacy, cannot be
compensated for by the possession of
the most princely fortune. Mind mca-
sures gold but gold cannot measure
mind. Through dress the mind may
be read as through the delicate tissue
Of the lettcred page. A modest wo.
man will dress modcstly. A really
rcfind and intellectual woman will bear
the marks Of careful selection and taste.

"Aline is not pattern wife, Ger
tainly," was the response of the
younger brother. "She is not dis
tinguished for order, nor faultness in
neatness, nor unerring in discretion.
She is very far from being piece
of clock-work, and there is great un.
certainty, sometimes delightful, some
times painful, as to what she will at.
tempt, and whether the result will
be success or failure. There is
room for doubt as to particulars;
none at all as to the general tendcn-
cy of her conduct. She is as true.
hearted woman as lives, 'and that
which she delights in must be hap.
py.' You may smile if you choose,

that | am happy. | know not what

strongest incentive to improvement;

IS true that I was delayed today by
waiting for a few last stitches from

upon my clothing, as I see you i'm.

"Wliy, yes, tolerably,' said the
good man, who seemed moro graf.

"Thc truth i5," he added, speaking
with hesitation, as if he felt need Of
an apology. "The truth is, T am
