In CONGRESS yesterday Mr.. Green of Missouri
insmated that be should ask the Senate to come to
n vote upon the Kansas bill next Monday Mr..
Doottle resumed the speech which he commenced
on Thursday. He replied to some of MIR Ham
monds rem arbable assertions, reviewed the history
ofhe Kansas usurpatiOn, and criticised the positions
taken by its several defenders Mr.. Foster of
Connecticut alsO presented his views upon the Kan
sas question He declared that he would never
assent to the admission of a Slave State north OF
36o 30. His comments upon the most stroCious
clauses in the LecomptOn Constitution drew him
ints discussion with Mr. Green of Missouri, and
his assertiOnthat Slavery made perpetual unless
abolished with the consent of every STAKEHOLDER
within the borders of the State brought up Mr..
Mason of Virginia with whom running debate
was kept up until nearly the conclusion of Mr..
Fosters remarks. After a short executive session
the Senate adjourned.
In the House, Mr. Taylor of Louisiana offered
resolutions inquiring into the circumstances con.
Iected with the seizure of the bark Adriatc, and
providing for reparaton to her owners and for the
Pceyention of similar proceedings. Mr.. Taylor
eontended that the action of France in the matter
involved all attack upon the sovereignty of the
Oaised States, and all Infringement of the law Of

The Erening Posts Washington correspondent
gives the following rather formidable list of Mail
Steamer projects now before the House or its Post.
Office Committee:
Bill III R. 3Oll 10 provide for the transportation bt
mails of the United States between New-York City
and New. Orleans and San Francisco, and to reduce
the expenses thereof
Petition for an act authorizing the Postmaster-Gen-
eral TO contract for the rans-communcation between
the United States and Brazil via st. Thomas &c.
Memorial of Edward Fox for the establishment OF a
mail route between Portland, in the state OF Name,
and Liverpool in Eng and.
Memorial of Christian Hansen, asking Congress to
establish an ocean mail route between Nev-York and
Gluckstadt on the Elbe and Rotterdam, and making
proposals to eany the mails between these places.
Memorial of A. l.. Blucker and others, asking for
an act establishing mail route on the west coast OF
South America.
Memorial of W. c. Rainey and others asking that
an ocean mail route be established between New-Or-
leans Santander in spain, and Bordeaux In France,
VIA Havana and Faya and making propositions to do
the same.
Memorial of J. b. Cole, n. Rogers & Co., of the
City of Baltimore, for the establishment of a mail
route from said city to st. Thomas via the Islands Of
Bermuda
Memorial of Oliver Evans Woods of Philadelphia,
in relation to the efficiency of the delivery of Pacific
mail service
route between New-YoIk, ST. Thomas, Barbados
Demerara " Para.
The success of all these projects would probably
add somewhere between Two Millions and Three
Millions per annum to the National Expenditures,
end we don't believe the total of their addition
10 the Post. Office revenue would exceed Half
Million for the first year, or One Million afterward.
The state of Uncle Sans strOng-bO1 will probably
doom them All to the cold shoulder, for this Ses-
sion, at least.

Mr.. Charles Turner letter, in another column,
.sys that We have done him injustice in our account
If bis proceedings at the Street Commissioner 3
Office on Saturday. Upon bis own confession, the
only Injustice was in the deductions made from bis
actions and his complications with the contractors
40 TO the Importance Of getting rid Of certain pa
pers. He says that he did not intend to remove or
disturb any of the records. 1t was upon full
conviction that such was the intention Of the move
ment on the part Of some or all of these persons
that the Mayor drove out the intruders and took
possessions; and il was currently reported that at
least one important paper was distracted on that
dsv. So il seems that We are by no means alone
in our opinions of the intent. Mr. Turner further
denies ali and every one of the charges
made against him upon the evidence brought
before the Fraud Committee of cOlusion with con-
tractors in the plunder of the people, and ls per-
tecty willing that all his official acts shall be sub
ected 10 the severest scrutiny. We trust that ne
will be gratifei, and should he clear himself By
inst and honorable means We shall hasten to do
him full Justice. Yet We must, as the matter now
stands persist in our opinion that his lrrupton into
the Hal Of Records on Saturday was high-handed
and objectionable act without shadow OF justIh-
cation. and to be explained only BY his position IN
the report of the Fraud Committee. His excuse
that be was not aware of the agreement between
Couoyer and Devlin 10 await the action OF the
Court of Appeals, betrays an amount Of ignorance
Of the real state of the litigation for which We
should hesitate to give Mr.. Turner credit, if credit

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

Mr.. TAYLOR la offered resolutions of inquiry
into the facts attending the seizure by the French
Government Of the bark Adristic. The resolutions
also provide for redress to the owners Of the bark and
for the prevention Of similar proceedings.
Mr.. TAYLOR contended that no court of foreign
country has the right to condemn an American ves
sci for failure to carry lights, in the absssce Of
American law requiring such practice. The act Of
France was an act attack upoa our sovereignty, and
an infringement Of the law Of nations. He thought
that owing to the important principles involved i'm
mediate steps should be taken by the Government
relative TO this matter
The resolutions were referred to the COMMITTEES on
Foreign Affairs.
The bill sppropriating s34O 600 to pay the deficiency
in the printing bills of the XXXIIid and XXXIYth
Congresses was passed.

A Convention of Old Soldiers-manly of the
War of l5l2--wss held at Indianapolis on the 9Th
Of January, and an adjourned meeting thereof on
the 4th inst Gen. Robert Hanna presided.
Among their resolves, We note the following:
Resolrtd, That we dscaim and a. all times the
mputation of being mendicants objects OF national
charity; but believe to be the bounden duty OF our
country now in a state Of unparalleled greatness and
prosperity TO express by legislative enactment its sp-
probation of our former services
Resolred, That it is the duty of the Congress oil the
United States provide by pension or otherwise TOR
those who fought the battles of the war of 1872 against
Great Britain and her savage allies.
Rtsolred, That the Congress Of the United States,
in granting our request, will do much to talsity the
charge that republics ungratefu to their citizens.
Mr. Secretary Cobb will doubtless be glad to
hear that this country is now in state Of unpar
alleled prosperity aud will be glad to honor the
drafts of the Old Soldiers for living at the public
cost for the rest of their days. But We suspect
this " unparalleled prosperity" has not yet made
itself manifest at the Treasury.
If paying Bounties and Pensions to Old Sol.
diers is the way to prove republics not ungrateful,
haven't we done it already
New-York daily tribune., 1858-03-09

Of Aldermen will be found an official copy of the
presentmsut Of the Committee on Frauds, closing

etiDg some Of the money stolen from the people
A glance at this report will show the imprOpriety
of trusting any of the Devlin and Turner party
with the records of the Street Department. The
Aldermen who voted tor Devlin's appointment find
this exposure too overwhelming, and not voice il
raised to stop the prosecution.

An exultng letter, dated Austin, Feb. II, 10
The 81. Ions Republican, proclaims Texas the Par
adise Of the Union. She has lots of money lmade
by gougng Uncle Sam and then cheating her cred
tors for Schools, Public Edifces, &C., any guam
tity Of excellent unOccupied lands, and Six Hun
dred Thousand People. Her Legislature has just
produced Report on Slavery proving it the per-
lection of justice policy aud humanity, whereof
Ten Thousand copies are to be printed in English,
German and Spanish, and so distributed as to rem
der it /" a standard textbook in every nook sud
L" corner of Texas This is the way to destroy
Abolitionism," says the writer-that is, flood the
State with Pro-Slayery arguments at the public ex-
pense, and suppress every whisper on the other
side: for he adds, Negro -wOrshipers, with US,
are driren out unceremoniously. He says:
"We have just passed law providing for free ne
groes to choose masters, most all among Us desire
to DO, and also bill to prevent emancipation by will.
That is to say, any free negro may decide for
himself the momentOus question Of Freedom or
Slavery; but no master is allowed to decide that
very question with reference to his own undoubted
chattels. But why are not the white men of Texas
as well qualified to pass upon this question as the
negroes
