Mr.. Pratt, Of Connecticut, we learn, spoke
against the nomination of Judge Nicholson las
the party's candidate for House printer) be-
cause the Union under his control had urged
the repeal of the Missouri compromise. Mike
Walsh, who voted on preliminary questions,
left the Hall, We hear, ere the nomination was
made; saying, under an erroneous impression
that there was not majority of the Demo-
cratic members present, which he held, alb
solved him from the obligation to sustain its
action. Mr.. Fenton, when his name was called
in making the choice, is said to have excused
himself, on the ground that he had come in at
80 late period as to prevent him from under
standing what had been going on sufficiently
clearly to justify him In voting. Mr. Harris,
Of Mississippi, also spoke, though We have not
been able to gather the precise tenor of his
remarks.

Warrant 0fdesrs' Pay.-We have received
the following communication from Portsmouth,
Virginia, dated February "a, 1854
Editors Of the Star: e- '-t
The warrant officers Of the Navy, viz The
boatswains, gunncrs, carpenters, and sail
makers, have presented to Congress memorial
praying for a certain addition to pay which,
considering their present small allowance, in
justice should be granted them. Their present
pay is as follows When on duty on board of
74s, $500; ON all other duty, 500. With this
pay, with but very few exceptions,) they have
to rent houses, provide for their families cdu-
cate their children, uniform and clothc them
selves, aud pay their meas and wash bills on
foreign stations. Common reason will satisfy
any one, that at the present cost Of living, it
is impossible TO meet all these expenses with
the average pay Of 500. But, exclusive of
this. it does not pay them for the services rem
dered, nor does II compare with the pay Of the
Journeymen Of their respective trades in phi
vste employment. -, ....s.. -

AN AMERICAN VESSEL FIRED INTo.-'The
steamer Bay City, at Rio de Jaueiro in des-
tress, reports that in endeavoring to make Rio
she was fred at three times by the English
naval brig Bonita, to make her heave to, though
after three previous blank shots had been fired,
the steamer being under sail had waited for
the brig to come up, and had her aas dying.-
This is the Captains story. who adds that
when the steamer was boarded the English
officer asked why he had not heaved to to.
which he replied that he had done SO, before
the shots were fred. The steamers papers
were exclaimed, and the fact of her having
been boarded noted on the log: 1t seems that
the English were: looking out for a Russian
frigate. supposed to be somewhere on the coast
The U. S. Consul at Rio made record Of
the facts, and has sent it home to the COVER
ment at Washington.

A FACT FROM NATuRE.-The white and the
red ants. make slaves of the black ants, yet
they aresthe very insects to which the Holy
Scriptures refer US to learn wisdem. For every
negro in slavery in the South, there are more
than hundred thousand negro ants in slavery
in the same region.
Slavery, therefore, of the black to the white
man is not incompatible with the economy of
Nature. The institution cannot be founded in
sin, or we would not have been referred to the
insect slaveholding sinners, to learn wisdom.
