From WashIngtOn Cily-COngress, &c:

teers, and expenses Of the Indian war III
Washington and Oregon Territories Nci
ther is there any indication that the special
appropriaton bills introduced by our Dele
gate, Hon. J. PArroN ANDERSON, and re-
ported favorably upon in Committee Of the
Whole, some time since, had, up to our
latest dates, been reached and acted npon,
The black republican majority " shriekS for
freedom" in Kansas, in the House, and
other matters connected Herewith, appear
to drown all appeals to the justice and
mercy of government, so far as our ow"
and neighJoring Territory is concerned I;
and although Col. ANDERSON and Gen
LANE, will persist in their efforts TO obtain
Justice for their respective constituents until
the eleventh hour of the last day OF the
session, we still fear that the black clond
Of northern disunion Higgerism will darken
all prospects of our delegate in obtaining a
fair hearing on the bill for the relief of our
people, appropriating money for payment
on the Indian war Indebtedness. We ex-
pect tShear the fate of the Indian war,
and the other special Territorial uppropra
tion bills through the next States mail
Rumor has it, that the bill making provi>-
ion for the payment of the expenses OF The
Indian war for both Territories will b,
transferred from the House to the SenatgA-
that it will there be introduced by Hon. j.
b. WELLER, of Culfornia--thnt it would
undoubtedly pass that body, and lie sent to
the Honse-givug that branch ample tim'
to act upon it and concur in its pasSngr
before the adjournment, should the negro
loving majority choose to do so.
From private adviccs received through
the last mail, we are assured that Governor
STEVENS, of this Territory, has not been re-
moved-neither is there any certui .ty that
he will be by the present administration.
His especial friends aud admirers, the
iSicilocoom bar, ~ and their adjuncls
throughout the Territory and in Washing
ton City, happend to squeL before they
were out Of the woods. President PIERCE
certainly did very uP.tcroTg to spoil the
Iiolifcotion the aforesaid bar contemplated
to have had over the removal Of the Gov
ernor-news of which was expected by the
last mail. We next expect to hear That
the modern solons haveappealed to another
tribunal, and ippeAched the President for
refusing to accede to their behests. Should
they not succeed there, their next resort,
we presume, will he to hunt knot holes y
Awful papers, that bar. Lycurgus wonld
be considered fool in that crowd. Their
patriotism and enterprise is only equalled
by their modesty.
From private letter, to which we have
been admitted to an audience, we learn
that E. YULEE, Esq, has resigned his post
as Receiver Of the Land Office of this Ter.
ritory, and that WV, P. THoMpsoN, Of Vir-
ginia, has been appointed his successor.
This appointment was made, we understand,
without the knowledge, or without Col.
ANDERSON having been consulted concern
ing it. A number of appointments from
the States have also been made for MINES
ota, without the delegate for that Territory
having been advised in the matter.
1t appears that the people Of this Terri
tory, who have pioneered their way out
with an object of making this their perma-
nent future home, answer very good pur-
pose in Telling the forest-opeuiug farms
and fighting the Indians but when va.
cancy occurs in a SiaacHre Office, an impor-
tatiOn from the States must be made to
Gil it. Pity that the government could not
fnd enough of suitable timber out here to
do nothing for $25OO per anuum. As for
Mr.. YuLEE, he might have resigned year
ago had he consulted us on the subject.
Messrs. BRooKs aud KEIrr, Of South
Carolina, have both been almost unani.
mously reelected to Congress in thier re-
spective districts, on the last Monday in
July, and Hon. p T. HERBERT, of Calfor.
mia, has been acquitted of murder in the
KEATING affair.
A resolution has passed both branches
of Congress, fixing the 18th day Of August
for the final adjournment. M
In the Senate, July 22d, the bill 10 in
crease the efficiency of the United Suites
army was amended by reducing the nppro-
priaion from three millions of dollars to
one million eight hundred thousand dollars,
and then it was passcd-yeOs n, nays 10.
In the House, on the same day, bill to
establish uniform rule of naturalization,
