She has been having vessels built in England, France
and America under the superntendence of officers of the
Russian navy The reorganization of the Baltic fleet is
now complete, and reckons twentyseven ships of the
line and several smaller vessels without counting gun
boats. As the number in the Black has been re-
duced the government has endeavored to compensate for
this loss by increasing the ola in the Caspian sea- and
by creating respectable naval force in Eastern Siberia
and at the mouth of the river Amoor The Times Paris

place between the Turks and Christians at the beginning

Mr.. Keitt IS. o. argued against delay
We must have prompt action if we expect
to pass all the appropriation; bills and ad-
journ at the time fixed. ~. -. 4
Mr.. Wright CTenn, could see no reason
for postponcmeut merely because five or six
gentlemen wanted time to make up their
minds, when 204 members, by their votes
to-day, showed that they had come to con-
clasior,how they will act, ..si.
Mr., 'Bonhatn (SaG9 said he had some
thing to DO with -Mr. Garnett's motion to
postpone, He and several other gentlemen
had engagements insthe South, and made
arrangements to leaxe Washington this
evening. Beside they desired time to
discuss the question. If the postponement
was not carried, he should like to have the
vote taken to-day - .~.
MIR. hillsou, (Vo.) said that the policy
II MIR. Marshall and others was to cndeayor
10 stir up the minds of tie North and pro.
duce. animpression that great injury is at
! tempted tobe perpetrated against Northern
sentiment and interests. This he denied,
! and ut length defended the report of the
Committee of Conference. ~
Mr.. Quitman (Miss, opposed this meas
ure, because it contained a concession on
the slavery question which he, as q South
crn man, was not prepared to make He
desired the isst3c to be brought to final
determination between the North and the
South. If they cannot do that they ought
to separate. Besides, he regarded the act
Of the people of Kansas as complete aud
binding; and was against the bill because
it proposed to submit the Leeompton Con-
! stitution to- the people q
On Friday in the House the .considera.
| ton Of tlIe. Kansas bill was resumed.
Mr. Bonham, of South Carolina, demand.
cd the previous question, but withdrew it
that !. a... .; y.
Nh. Bryan; of Texas, might explain his
reasons for acting with certain Southern
members in resisting the demand for tic
previous question. He respected their
Opinions, and saw provisions in thebll OF
which he did not approve, but rather than
promote disc0rd in tho Southern party, he
would give it his assent
Mr. Shorter, of Alabama, stated that he
had been unwilling to vote for the previous
questions, because he wished to give time
for thoroughly discussing tho bill Ho
had heard that Democratic members from
the North understood its provisions one
way, and that the Democratic members
from the South understood tin another,
lie now, however, believed that all mem
bcrs of his party construed the bill as not
submitting the Lccompton constitution to
the. people. In that case he would will
lingly vote for the bill.
AT half past. two O'Clock, las heretofore
announced, the Bill passed both houses.
