The precedent had been established in the case
Of other officers and Gen. Wool had heretofore
been sighted. He had serve under General
Wool, and knew his worth. He concluded by
moving the previous question, which prevailed,

Mr.. Hem, from the Committee on Public
Lands, reported back the bill for the relief of
the purchasers and locaters Of swamp and
overfiowed lands, which was read twice and
committed to the Committee Of the Whole.
Mr.. Stanton, Of Tennessee, reported a reso-
luton ordering the publication Of TO- 200 copies
Of the Report Of the Coast Survey, which passed.
The House then proceeded to the considera-
ton Of the resolution heretofore reported by
Mr.. lngersoll, requesting the President to COM
mnnicate to the House any correspondence be-
tween this Government and Spain, relating to
the imprisonment Of Captain Thadous Stevens
and his officers and crew in 1850, which was
passed.
Mr.. McDonalds bill, calling for information
respecting the cost Of the steamers Of the
United States navy, was taken up and passed.
Mr.. BENEFITS bill, granting public lands to
the States for the purpose Of education and in
ternal improvements, was taken up, the qucs-
ton being on tho motion Of Mr.. Jones, Of Ten
nessee, to lay it on the table.
AT the request Of Mr.. McMullen, the mo-
ton was withdrawn, when the question recur-
red on tho motion to refer the bill to the Com
mittee on Public Lands.
Mr. McMullen moved that it be referred with
instructions, modified at the request of Mr.
Clingmao, to inquire into the expediency Of ap.
propriatipg all the proceeds of the sales of the
lands to the support and increase Of the
navy.
Mr.. Bennett discussed the general subject,
and could not conjecture why the benefits Of
the public lands have always accrued to the
new States. He desired, by his bill, to confer
benefits on all
Mr.. Wentworth, Of Illinois, moved that the
whole subject be laid on the table which mo-
ton was decided in the negatiye--ayes GO,
nays so.
The motion Of Mr. McMullen was rejected,
and the bill was referred to the Committee on
Public Lands.
Mr.. Cutting submitted a preamble and res
olution relating to the correspondence Of the
Secretary Of the Treasury and Greene c. Bron-
son, late Collector of the port of New York,
requesting copy of the published correspond
ence, and any other letters, between the par
ties, as preliminary to ON investigation into the
