THIRTY. fifth Ceusress-FirstS Session

In THE SENATE, Yesterday, on the conclusion
Of Mr.. Mason's remarks on the resolution rela-
tive to the Nicaraguan question, the resolution
was laid over. and the consideration of the gem
eral deficiency bill was resumed.
Various amendments were proposed and dis
Gus sed, but without any decisive action on any
measure Of importance connected with the bill
the Senate adjourned.
In THE HOUSE,, the consideration of the bill
donating public lands to the several States 10
provide colleges for the benefit of agricultural
aud mechanic arts, was continued
Mr.. Cobb closed the debate, opposing the bill
The bill would operate unjustly on new States
now thinly populated; for instance New York
would receive 7oO, 900 acres, and Iowa only 50 on
acres of land. The exclusion Of the Territories
rendered the measure much more odious he
regretted that 1t was not the fashion to count
the favor of Territories because they have not vot
doubtless, would be acceptable to the States that
already had agricultural colleges, but would only
be a tax upon them.
The bill was finally put upon its passage, and
carried by vote of los yeas, 100 nays.
Mr.. Morrill, moved TO reconsider the vote and
lay the motion to reconsider on the table; which
latter motion was agreed to-yeas lG2, nays ~.
Mr.. English gave notice that he ex pected to
| make report day from the Kansas conference
committee
The House then went into Committee of the
Whole. and took up the bill granting pensions to
the officers ard soldiers of the war with Great
Britain OF 1Sl2, and those engaged in the Indian
wars OF that period
Mr.. Savage advocated the bill and said Il
would establish system of pensions that would
tend greatly TO promote the ciency Of the army
Mr.. Fenton submitted a substitute for the bill
He did not oppose the bill reported by Mr. Saw
age, but asked that his proposition might he he
fore the House. His proposition wonld do Justice
TO those men, according to the understanding of
the act under which they entered the service
MIR. Curry obtained the floor when the COM
nttee rose, and the House adjourned.

&c, have been found, after severe tests OF
years duration, made under the direction OF
the War and Navy Departments to embrace all
the advantages over all other materials Origi-
nalIy claimed for India rubber when so applied.
Similar experiments have demonstrate that
Indiasrubber goods as rarely answer for mill
tary and naval purposes as those of gutta
percha rarely fail; the latter not being affected
by changes of climate or temperature, and not
cracking or melting, as the former do. The
comparatively very small weight and great
durability of the gutta percha fabrics render
them invaluable for thousand purposes other
than those of the Government. When the
American public become acquainted with
the material, it will doubtless be as popular
with all. as with the men Of science who have
experimental upon it and otherwise used 1t for
five years past on the Governments behalf.
The ASSAULT OF THE ABOLITIOyIsr HELPER
ON THE Hon. BURTON CRAIGE.-Ws have re-
ceived the following sensible and modest letter
from the Justice of the Peace by whom Helper
was not long since held to bail in this city:
WAsHINGroN CITY, April 81, 1858.
Editor of the Star:
SIR l notice In the Boston Journal Of the 10Th
for having held Mr.. Helper TO bail to keep the
peace, beauSe of his recent fracas with Mr. Craige
In the House Of Representatives. The paragraph
states that Mr.. Campbell, of Ohio, swore that
/ Mr.. Craige struck first. did not so understand
his evidence. Understood him distinctly 10 say
that they strnck so closely tOge her that he could
|, not tell which struck first.
The nndisputed facts In the case were, that Mr..
Helper sought Mr.. Craige in his seat the floor
/ - the HOuse of Representatives, an angry con-
rtfsation took place between them, and fig ut
| ensue6. Mr.. Helper was arrested by the officers
with dirk and revolver, which, on being re-
qursted, he delivered iato my possession. Now
fcarlessly submit to all we'll dsposed and rig hit
under the circumstance in holding him to bail ,
Senator Hale did make some such remark as j.
ascribed to him in the Journal viz: sthat rowdy-
ism had run riot in the streets Of late and now
he found 1t sitting in courts attempting tn adj
minister JUSTICE | was surprised that the Sen
| atOr should have uttered such a sentiment, not
only from the dignity of his position. but because
| from hts professions, had supposed he was a
| friend of order and peace. IL poverty makes a
| man a rowdy, then 1 confess that Senator H ale
has done me no wrong in calling me one: but II
honesty of purpose, respect for laws, and correct
department constitute good citizen, / think the
Senator has done himself great injustice by
placing me In the category Of rowdies for, in this
| community, where | am well known, such an
imputation will not be credited even upon the
| authority Of the Senator.
| Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
| A. X. ARNOLD,
Justice of the Peace.
