Scramble for the N1c York Senator--Bouat,
Land for hadians-SuccessfA Diplomacy q
Mr.. Belmont.
WASHINGTON, February l0.-There was quite a
scramble for the new Senator to-day. When Gen.
Wilson came into the chamber, Mr.. Clayton, Wing
and Known othing got him into vacant seat on
the Wing side Of the Scnate-Messrs Sumner and
Chase made a desperate effort TO get him into the
free-soil locality The matter was finally compro.
missed by General Wilson taking Mr.. Atchison's va.
cant seat alongside Of Sam, the anti-Nebraskn
Know Nothing.
The effect of Mr.. Browns amendment, alluded
to in the Senate report, viii be that about five
thousand Indians will be enabled to obtain bounty
land. The Secretary Of War reports that ten thou
sand Indians have served in all the wars, and Of
these twelve hundred have received bounty lands,
There are on file FIVE hundred applicants suspend
ed by the construction Of Secretary McCleland.
which differs from the construction Of the laws by
his predecessors.
Mr.. Belmont, minister to Holland, has accom-
plshed what American ministers at the Hague have
fruitlessly endeavored since l835--that Of negot
atng consular convention with the government
by which American consuls are admitted to all the
ports Of the Dutch colonies open TO foreign com.
merce. For many months permission could only
b2 obtained for five ports-then for the free ports
but now permission has been obtained for all. The
English and Austrian ministers at the Hague are
much piqued at Mr.. Belmonts accomplishing what
they in vain tried TO do.

FuNERAL-The funeral Of the late unfortunate
and lamented William Osborne, supposed to have
been murdered on Thursday last took place from
his late residence back of the old background, on
yesterday morning.
His remains were followed by his relatives and
large circle of sympathizing friends, who seemed
deeply to mourn his sad and untmely end. His
remains we're carried to Rock Creek Church, placed
in front of the altar when an appropriate funeral
sermon was preached to very large audience, by
the pastor of the church, (Rev. Mr.. Buck after
which he was conveyed to his final resting-place,
the grave. The whole service was deeply solemn
and impressive.
In our report Of Saturday. we mentioned Mr.
Osborne going to Esn's tavern, and also az a
negro; which statements are both incorrect He
was white, and very mild and harmless man, and
one whom il is supposed there could exist no
grudge against, making the murder most cold
blooded affair.
