States Supreme Court, which was originally
part of the bill to increase the compensation of

A bill was reported from the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, recognising the diplomatic
services of Commodore Perry, and proposing to
give him 200.
After the transaction of other business,
The Senate, at one clock, resumed the con-
sideration of the special order-the bill making
appropriations for the Indian department. and,
after disposing of several amendments, the bill
was reported to the Senate, and the amend
ments made as in Committee of the Whole were
again subjected to discussion. Having been

The Pacific railroad bill was next taken up,

The Chairman announced the business before
the Committee to be the bill making appropria-
tons for the civil and diplomatic expenses of
government 1Or the year enulnS June DUN,
1856, and for other purposes.
Mr.. Faulkner made an Intellectual effort to
have this bill set aside, for the purpose of pro-
ceeding with the consideration of the army
appropriation bill, urging that, in time of war,
bills to raise men and money for the prosecution
of hostilities must have the preference. There
was an Indian war now in progress.
On motion by Mr.. Olds, the civil and diplo-
matte bill was set aside, and that making appro-
priations for the transportation of the United
States mail by ocean steamers and otherwise,
during the fiscal year ending June 3Oth, 1856,
was taken up.
Mr.. Olds offered an amendment, to the effect
that 1858, 900 be appropriated for the transport
alton of the mails from New York to Liverpool,
and repeating the proviso in the first section OF
the act to supply deficiencies in the appropria-
tons for the service of the fiscal year ending
the 3Oth of June, 1852, directing the Secretary
of the Navy to give notice for the termination
of the arrangement for the additional allowance
for the transportation of the United States mail
between New York and Liverpool in the Collins
lines Of steamers, as therein provided, on condl.
ton that an additional steamer be completed
within two years.
Messrs. Odds and Walbridge advocated the
amendment, and Messrs. Smith of Virginia, and
Letcher opposed it.
Without coming to a conclusion on the snb-
ject, the Committee rose, and the House
adjourned.
