Mr. CLlNGMAN said he saw nothing surprising
N conference OF ministers in Europe. Itseemed
70 him eminentiy proper that there should be one
during the progress Of the interesting events trans
pring In Europe. TWAS important that they should
come to common understanding in order TO sub
serve the cause Of their country.
Mr.. McMULLEN regarded the.resolution as pre-
mature. In reply TO Mr.. WAsHBuRS, he said that
foreigners have become one Of the great topics OF
the day There Is a holy horror of them. At the
North il was 80 great that kenesses of some of the
most distinguished foreign characters were taken
down from the walls. He would advise the gem
tleman from Maine TO have that picture [pointing
TO Lafayettsl removed from this hall He regretted
to hear in this house of elaboration the repeated
attacks made on foreigners. He should vote against
the resolution.
Mr.. LITTLE said he would vote for the refer
ence. There was no necessity for the adoption of
the resolution. Its character precluded any reve-
lation other than they had. The President having
communicated lengthy message, proves either
that he has no knowledge with which further to
acquaint the House, or that he has none on this
subject which can be properly communicated.
Mr.. TAYLOR, of Ohio, thanked Mr. SoLLERs for
introducing the resolution. II was not premature
to call for the information. He said no man Of for
egn birth ought to be sent abroad to represent us
in a foreign capital.
Mr.. BAYLY said that, except in extreme cases,
thc IlOibc bnOuiu not make u call at TINS Time. III
was miscellaneous precedent, for the reason he
stated-while he would not discourage distinguish
ed foreigners, If would bcwell il none but native
born representatives were sent abroad Our coun-
try should be represented by natives. He was
prepared to 60 one step farther and adopt the sem
timent Of Jefferson, that even the native born ought
not to be left abroad too long, for they mbibe for
eign views, forgetting their native appetites
Mr. JONES, of Tennessee, suggested that Mr..
BAYLy modify his motion to refer the resolution to
the Committee on Foreign Affairs, with instructions
to inquire whether or not the meeting Of American
ministers was not for the purpose Of organizing
Known Nothing lodge in Europe. Laughter
Mr. BAYLY said his friend must excuse him. If
the resolution should be referred to the Committee
ON Foreign Affairs, they would try to ascertain
whether something may not be said on this floor to
satisfy the curiosity Of gentlemen without the for
mality Of call on the President.
The vote on referring the resolution was then
taken and negatived by yeas 83, nays "a.
Pending the question on the adoption of the re-
solution, the House adjourned.

CITY INTELIIGENCE.

KuNKEL's OrERA TRouPE.-This evening i for
the benefit Of our popular juvenile military corps,
the Union Infantry. This company parades for the
first time to-day, and We trust that notwithstand-
ing the inclemency Of the weather, the number IN
the ranks win exhibits an enthusiastic military spirit
among the younger portion Of our community.
The worthy manager Of Kunkefs Troupe does
all in his power to render the vast theatre comfort
able, having nine stoves constantly going, by
means Of which the theatre Is rendered as warm
and pleasant as any parlor in our city. We were
surprised last evening to find it 80 warm, as we
had always thought it impossible 10 keepit SO but
we can tell our readers, they need not stay away
through fear Of the cold ii will be as warm and
comfortable as they might wish. The picturesque
ballet, La Bayadere is substituted for Macbeth,
and this graceful stage piece in which Fanny Ellis
Ter shone SO radianty, will be presented as well as
it was ever done in this city.
PANORAMA or New York CTY.--This work re-
mains here only four days longer. 1t exhibits at
Odd Fellows Hall, Seventh street, every evening
this week. The liberal patronage it is receiving
here proves our citizens are pleased with it.
FIREMEss' BESERIT.-The Franklin Fire Com
pany Of this city have benefit at the National
Theatre tomorrow evening" when besides the reg
ular performances Of Kunkers Troupe, the follow
ing song, dedicated to the Washington fremen,
by @. w. Tayleur, will be sung by Master j.
Adams
FYreman's Song dedicated to the Fraaklin Fire
Company Of Washington.
The gilded page Of histry tells,
Ofdeeds which hero arms hath done
And world resounding Pean swells,
Ger bloody fields by warriors won,
But nobler than the warrior brave
A greater hero yet than he
Is the Fireman, who fights to save
The champion Of humanity.
CHoRus-A blessing on each sturdy arm,
And for each noble heart fresh joy,
OF those who shield the weak from harm,
God bless-God bless the Fire Boy.
The warrior mid the battles roar
Follows where bright glory leads,
His laures thrive mid human gore,
And mourning hearts record his deeds.
The Firemen God bless their names)
Asks not reward-n0r seeks applause,
Yet thinks as battling mid the fames,
lis an appealing sorrows cause.
CHoRus-A blessing on each sturdy arm, &c.
yigilant where sorrow calls him,
Perseverance, then bestowing,
Columbia's sons, nought, nought appalls him,
Like Anacostia, courage showing
A touthner oft, he'll yet uphold
His countrys Northern Liberties,
And thinks, as Franklin oft hath told,
Where breaks the Union freedom dies.

such facts exist. There Is no evidence that the
meeting has resulted in anything, IL any meeting
at all has taken place. They have nothing but out
of door gossip. He was willing to refer the reso-
luton to the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Mr.. BAYLY remarked that If thus referred, the
committee would report back the resolution.
Mr.. LETCHER said he would vote for the resolu-
ton as ii stood and should vote for it, If something
more we're added. He was satisfied, from the tone
of the public journals, and conversations among his
constituents that there Is distrust about our min
lister at Madrid He desired the facts to 90 before
the country, in order that IL Mr. Soule Is Innocent,
he may have the benoft Of the vindcation. Ifthe
suspicious are well founded, the facts should be
known. Hence he wanted the resolution passed in
order to decide how the case stands.
The gentleman from Alabama, Mr.. PBILLIrsl
considered this light question, but he Mr. LErcH-
En- never knew more important one TO be made
on the President than this. He thought that Soule
should never have been sent abroad, and that the
interests Of the country would be promoted by
bringing him home.
Mr. BAYLY reminded Mr.. LKrcHKR that the res
olution had nothing to do with Mr.. Soue.
Mr. LETCHER replied that he understood Mr..
Soule was in that conference. To be sure there
was not word said about him in the resolution,
but he took II for granted that his colleague Mr..
BAyLYl knew IL he (Mr. Soule) was not there,
how comes all this fuss about his going back
through Frances Laughter. What difference
does L make whether Mr.. Soule's name Is not mem
toned when the resolution distinctly refers TO
him?
Mr. CAMPBELL advocated the adoption Of the
resolution, contending that the people have a
right to the information Although no official
document admitted the fact Of the meeting at 0s-
tend, there was a universal publication Of Il.
Mr.. SELLERS replied 10 Mr.. PHILLIPS and said,
among other things, that he would not trust our
diplomacy to men not natives and to the manor
born. [Cries Of goodw "goodi"l
