TEE MECHANICS INSTITUTE.

TIE act establishing State Agricultural Bureau,
passed in 1854 provided, among other matters, for
Division Fair in eaoh division Of the State, and
appropriated one thousand dollars annually to each
division fair Under this act, the fairs we're to be
held in different places each year, to be sxed By
the delegates to the Division Fairs elected BY the
county agricultural societies. In 1856 an act was
passed by the Legislature, permitting these dele
gates to locate these division fairs permanently, and
appropriatng ten thousand dollars to each division
for the purchase Of grounds and fitting them for
exhibitions in the event that the fairs we're located
Under this law, the Western Division Fair has been
located At Jackson and the Eastern Division Fair at
Knoxville In Middle Tennessee the fair has not
been located; indeed, attempt to FIX its location
has been made. Several oounties-ss, for instance,
Sumner, Maury, Wilson, Giles, Smith, &e.-WOuld
have about equal claims to its location were such
policy agreed upon, and it would be difficult if net
impossible to agree upon any point. The apprOpri-
alton therefore lies unealled for in the Treasury.
Such being the condition Of things The Legislature
at its last session, passed act, directing the ap
preparation Of ten thousand dollars from the Mid
die Tennessee Fair, to the Mechanics Institute, TO
aid the latter body in erecting hall at Nashville
but provided that the consent Of the delegate
members Of the Bureau from Middle Tennessee
should first be obtained.
At the late meeting Of the Bureau, its consent tC
the transfer was asked. The matter was discussed
at some length; but as only three counties in Mid
die Tennessee out Of the fifteen or twenty having
societies, were represented the matter was pOst-
poned until the October session. The matter never
having been brought before the county societies,
the three declined to act for the fifteen twenty.
We may expect nearly all the societies to be re-
presented At the October session; and we feel sure
Of fair and generous dealing in the premises.

LEcnMPTnN IN CONGRESS.

The dispatches to the Louisville CoYrsr are fuller
than those we receive and so, although we have
once printed an outline Of the folio wing we repeat
it:
HOUSE, April IA The House went into commit.
Tee Of the whole on the bill 20 establish an auxiliary
guard for the protection Of life and property in
Washington City. The bill was discussed until one
o'clock, when, on motion Of Mr.. Montgomery, Of
Pa, the committee rose, and the House took up the
Kansas bill
message from Senate, insisting on its disagree
ment TO the House amendment, and asking for q
committee Of conference, was read.
Mr. Montgomery moved that the House insist on
its adherence, and demanded the previous ques-
ton.
Mr. English inquired whether, if 3 committee Of
conference be ordered by the House, Parliamentary
law ami practice require majority Of the commit
tee 10 be composed Of gentlemen representing ma
j0rity of the House, q majority Of those in favor
of the House bill.
Mir Stanton said if not in order he would object
10 the question, because this would provoke inter
r0gat0ries Of the other side.
English, that he might not be misunderstood, said
he was opposed TO the Senate bill in its present
shape; but notwithstanding this, he was willing TO
hear what the Senate had to say in favor Of an APP
p0intmcnt Of Committee Of Conference. He could
see harm that would result, and therefore moved
that the House agree 10 Committee Of Conference
on the subject matter Of disagreeng votes, and that
three members be appointed the part Of the House
He moved the previous question: which was second
ed The vote being taken stood, yeas los; nays
Jos; aud the Speaker gave his casting vote in the
affirmative, so that Enghsh's motion prevailed.
Applause from the galleries, which was rebuked
by The Speaker
Alter some conversation on the subject, motion
made 10 reconsider the vote, carried, and then
laid on the table.
WAsHINGroN April 14-The sniLecomptOn
Democrats Of the House we're this morning two hours
in caucus About one-half Of them were in favor Of
the appointment Of a committee to meet that Of the
Senate in conference on the Kansas bill, because,
they said it was understood that the Speaker
would give them a committee favorable 10 their side
Of the question. They say they do not wish IN ts-
king this course, 20 be considered abandoning
their opposition to LeComPton, but wished to show
becoming respect TO the Senate. If necessary to
secure the appointment Of the Committee, CooksWel
and Foley would have voted in the afrmates in the
House, in company with English Hall, Of Ohio,
Pendleton Owen and Jones' who sustain the Mont.
gomery- Crittenden substitute.
TIE next day, as has already been announced, the
House az eed to q Committee.
