CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS

In the Senate, yesterday, after we went
to press, message was received from the
President of the United States on the subjec,
Of enlistment Of soldiers by British officials
which was ordered to be printed.
A resolution was introduced by Mr.. Mason
calling for information in relation to a pro-
posed arbitration of questions between Britain
and this government adopted.
The Senate resumed the consideration of
the special order-being the motion to print
the message Of the President in relation to
the disturbances in Kansas.
Mr. Hale replied to the speech made by
Mr.. Toucey few days since, and opposed
the policy adopted by the President in refer.
ence to affairs in Kansas. He also discussed
the slavery question at length. In opening
BIS speech ne declined to reply to the per-
sonai remarks Of Mr.. Jones, of Tennessee,
made few days ago. =
Mr.. Ioombs expressed his concurrence in
the policy adopted by the President in rela-
ton to the troubles in Kansas, and believed
him entitled to the support of every friend Of

Proceedings of To-day.


In the Senate, to-day, message was re-
ceived from the President, and read 1t was
in answer to the resolution of inquiry offered
by Mr.. Mason, and passed on Tuesday by tie
Senate. 1t stated that no offer to submit the
difficulties between the English and American
Governments to arbitration had ever been for
mally made, but that much informal CONVEX
satiOn on the subject had passed between Lord
Clarendon and Mr. Buchanan, which was re-
garded by the British Government as formal
offer, but which was not so viewed by our
Minister. 1t also appears that in note dat d
February n, 1856, Mr.. Champion had made
some representations on the subject.
Mr.. Seward was glad to see the pacific turn
of this controversy. 1t seemed, he thought,
that the English Government was now ready,
at any rate, to refer the matter to arbitra-
ment. He should never have consented that
this Government should make proposals to re-
fer the subject to arbitrators, but he did not
think it would derogate from the dignity Of
the United States to accept that offer when
properly made. He thought the matter in
good hands, and that the State Department
could manage the subject without the aid of
Congress.
The matter was then discussed by Messrs
Pierce, Mason and Seward, somewhat further,
when it was ordered that ten thousand copies
Of this message and the message on the infrac
ton of the neutrality be printed together.

The Senate then adjourned

Among the resolutions offered and adopted,
no objection being made thereto, were the fol-
lowing:
