A NRw STEAM PRoJEcr,-The New York
Journal Of Commerce notices new project,
having in view the running of steamship line
from San Francisco to China and Australia, that
is seriously talked of in the city Of New York,
in conjunction with proposition from parties
in Europe; and it is in contemplation to seek
the patronage Of the U. S. Government, by OBJ
tanning q favorable contract for carving the
mails. According to this plan the Sandwich
Islands will be made a port of call on the OUT
ward passage, to obtain stores, coal, and other
necessary supplies. At this point, and at the
BONN Islands naval depots win be formed
From Shangha, the course will be due South to
Cape Lowen, where fair wind to Sidney NAV
always be expected, especially IN the winter
season. From Sidney to the continent the pre-
vailing wind is from the westward during the
winter months; and in the route across it is
proposed to make Pitcairn's Island or Tahiti
depot for coal-resurning home BY the way of
the Isthmus Of Panama The friends of the
enterprise claim that this will be the best and
shortest route, either to China or Australia
that it win not interfere with any route already
established; that il will secure important gov.
eminent and commercial interests, and that the
boisterous weather encountered between Sid
ney and the Cape of Good Hope, especially in
the winter, win be almost wholly avoided.

The resolution and its substitute, calling for .
statement from the Governor in relation to GER
tain transactions with the Sup. Pub Inst. were
taken up, and elected spirited debate, which
was participated in by Senators Jenkins, Thurs
ton, Trimble, Mcpherson and Coolbaugh.
Mr. Coolbaugh stated that he was in favor of
the resolution, and he supported it not from any
political consderations.-He thought the Cover
nor had done right and it was SO seldom that
he agreed with that officer, that he supported
him in this matter most heartily. The conduct
of the Superintendent of Public Instruction
showed that he had treated the General Assem-
bly, with utter contemporaries an act was passed
at the last session preventing that officer from
loaning any more of the five per cent fund, and
the Governor had done right in Withholding his
certificate from that officer, for the purpose of
preventing him from drawing money The re-
port made to the General Assembly at its last
session in reference to the affairs Of the Super
intendent, showed that there were some Just
grounds for the rumors existing as to his official
delinuuency

The truth of the rumor of Judge Lecompte's
removal is now confirmed, by the nomination by
the Prest. to the Senate of Jas. 0. Harrison of
(Ky.) as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Of
Kansas. The removal was contemplated at least
40 days ago, and of which it is said he was
aware, but up to this time, nothing has been
heard from him in defence of his official con-
duct The recent proofs and representations OF
Governor Geary determined the course of the
administration in the premises. VIM. Spencer
has, likewise been appointed as Marshall of Kan
sas Vice Donaldson and Thomas Cunningham Of
Pa, associate Justice of the Supreme Court of
Kansas in place of Burrell deceased.

quence of threatened insurrection among the
negroes. The military were called out last
night, and % slaves were arrested at q ball
where they had assembled without permission,
against the laws of the State.
Governor Wise had supplied arms and am
munition, and the people throughout the county
of Alexandria and Fairfield are arming them
selves in case of a general outbreak.
No evidence has been found against any Of

DR.. Eads made his report to the Legislature
yesterday. 1t is very yoluminous document;
and labors hard to clear up the questionable
proceedings of the Superintendent of Instruc-
ton. With that recklessness of truth which
has characterized his whole course-and which
seems to be with him constitutional falling
he makes statements which will be refuted the
next hour by irrefrasible evidence; just as was
his statement last session that he had $4,000
in the State Treasury, when he had not cent
there. The Dr's. career is drawing to a close -
We shall rejoice for his own sake, and that Of
the State, if he clears up his record; and will
as readily acknowledge the fact as if he were a
political friend. But we have no faith in his
ability to do any such thing; nor has any other
man who is conversant with the facts.

From the N, Y. Tribune.

Dec. l2.--Both Houses of Congress have
been harping upon the same old string to-day
the Message. The music is getting dull. The
severe storm Of the morning deprived the ladies
of attendance, therefore, the galleries in both
Houses were not robed in their usual grace and
beauty.
Messrs. Cass and Hale were disputants in the
Senate. The former Senator made a constitu-
tional argument in favor Of the doctrine Of
Squatter Sovereignty. He defended the Presi-
dent in the unprecedented course he had pur-
sued in substituting bad stump speech for 9
State paper.
Mr.. Hale entered into an elaborate constitu-
tional argument in vindication of the principles
embraced in the platform of the Republican par
ty showing the power and right oil Congress to
legislate on the subject Of Slavery. He exposed,
in happy manner, the Free Kansas dodge in
Pennsylvania, and displayed large poster used
in the campaign, announcing Gov. VIM. Biger
to speak for Free Kansas. Senator Bigler
WINGED under the lashing.
The fight in the House was in the order Of
Kilkenny cats. Mr.. Humphrey Marshall, of Ken
lucky, undertook to defend the position occu-
pied by Mr.. Fillmore, during the campaign, but
in doing it was so severely attacked on all sides
by the Southern Democrats, that he altered his
tactics somewhat, and pitched into the modern
Democracy, demonstrating that discord reigns
in its ranks.
He called to his feet Mr.. McMullin, who an
nounced that the Virginia delegation were a
unit in denunciation of Squatter Sovereignty as
promulgated by the distinguished Senator from
Michigan.
Mr.. Keitt, in reply to Mr.. Marshall, said he
repealed the idea that he was National Dem.
ocrat. He claimed to be Constitutional DEM
ocrat.
While Mr.. McMullin Dem.) was denouncing
Squatter Sovereignty in the House, Mr.. Cass,
DEM was defending the same question in the
Senate.
Mr.. Orr, of s. c., and Mr.. Letchcr, Of Va,
followed in defense of the President and his
Border Ruffian message.
