Leconptoa In the Senate.

BY reference to the Congress
iousl proceedings, It will DO seen,
that the Lscompton bill was called
up in the Senate on Tuesday last
On motion Of Mr.. Green, Of Missouri,
a Committee Of Conference was ap
pointed. It seems that Buchanan
and his adherents are determined to
leave nothing untried to force this
obnoxious measure through. The
expression Of opposition, given to
this measure already, ought to sat-
isfy any, who are at all disposed to
pay respect to the popular will.

The Deficiency Bill.

This bill came up in the House
last week, and was at first defeated
by thirteen Of majority, bu. after.
wards reconsidered and passed in
some shape. This was an Admin
istration measure, and as it called
for appropriations to pay extrava.
CANT claims based on over liberal
contracts for supplies to the Utah
army, very many OF even the Dem
ocrats, determined to rebuke the
President for the liberal use he aimed
to make of the peoples money.

Aerial Navigation from uuvrc TO New
York.

Aerial Ma vigation from Huvrc to New
York.
I NJ. Gavarni, French machinist,
has perfected his Grial ship, at a
cost OF 300, 900 franks, and made O
voyage to Algiers, Africa, and back
with it. a distance OF 800 miles
from his starting point. The voy.
age speed was almost 100 miles an
hour, the voyage out occupying
eighteen hours, and the return six
teen hours. M. Gavarni is to make
the attempt from Havre to the city
Of New York as soon as he has far
ther tested the character Of his in.
vention by few short trips over the
Mediterranean and its neighboring
provinces. The time consumed from
Havre to New York would be but
thirty hours, breakfasting at the
former city and supping at New
York the evening OF the next day.
As soon as a fair demonstration is
made of the safery and perfect regu-
larily with which erial navigation
can be carried on, and the simple
principle OF the suspension and mo-
tive power which sustains and pro.
pels the ship through the air is I'M
derstood 10y the world at large, there
is not the slightest doubt that ocean
navigation will cease, save for car.
rying freight. Aerial ships capable
OF the conveyance OF one hundred
travellers, can be built for $3.50, 900.
Twenty per cent. will be liberal in
tcrest on this SUN, and thus 100000
per year is all that will be required
to pay wear and tear, expense of
chemicals, &C., and leave profit.
One hundred trips per year can be
made, fifty each way, with the great
est ease, which, at only $40 pass
age, (thc intended price on the open
ling OF the line,) will, it lie seen, give
instead OF $4,000. the sum Of
100000 per year. II is said that
the stock for the first ship is ready
to be subscribed AS soon as Mr.. Ca
varni sees proper to proceed with the
matter. Private letters received by
the last steamer state that the Roths-
childs have made a heavy offer for
the privilege of putting on an Indian
Erial line Of one hundred and four
ships, aud one week to depart from
MarSeilles, at the same time with
passengers aud mails. The capital
Is said to be SIS, 100000 which they
propose to embark. Ournext mails
will probably give US further intslli-
gence of this wonderful stride in the
mechanical science OF tina nineteenth
century.
