HOrsE-Ir- Stephens OF Ga, asked lave to
report tie Oregon bill AZ once, a some DAYS
xii probably elapss before the Committee on
Territories would be called on for reports. He
desired thar some dsy next week should be set
apart fgr Its consideration
NJ. Morgan OF y. Z, preferred that the
House SHOULD proceed with its business in tie
regular order.

Mr. Morgan-I canaot yield one foot
NJ. Houston. Of Ala, desired 20 make re-
port from the Judiciary COMMITTEES
Ir. Stephens said that As ne could not report
the Oregon bill except .hen the committees are
regularly called for reports, ne should object 10
all other business that vas ou; Of order. Two
Senator's and Representative had teen elected
70 Congress from Oregon. and by this unneces-
saTy deizy = sovereign State IS Eow denied its
right Of equality.
The House then resumed consideration Of the
motion 20 refer the Naval Appropriation BIZ to
the Committee or Naval Affairs
Mr. Sherman OF Ohio thought it strange that
proposition to refer the Naval Appropriation
Bill to the Naval Committee should NEE. with
20 much opposition. II the Committee a the
House we're not to be entrusted Wiih the isgis-
lati6n Of appropriations TO them, they:o,,ht TO
be abolished. Nearly all the legislation i EN-
BODIED IN appropriation bills. By the practice
Of the House, these must all be framed and
acted upon by single COMMITTEE that having
charge Of ways and means From necessity
'hey must adopt, almost without change, the es-
Inmates Of the Executive Committee, and pro-
perry examine an expenditure of eighty mil
joins, the items Of which will I'll ! volume
Il is impossible, and yet it resisis reference
or examination Of these bills by other commit
tees. He should on the contrary, seek their aid
and demand their Supervision. He eontended
that the reference proposed was a practical
measure Of reform that would reduce the naval
bill not less than millions Of dollars; and If
generally practiced, would tend to reduce the
expenditures, and make each Committee re-
sponsible Tor its branch Of the public business
and secure a mere thorough scanning into the
estimates Of the departments
Sir. WashbuTne, of Maine, oppose ! the mo-
ton. The Committee Ways and Means pro-
perly have chnrge Of the appropriation bills, and
there must lie some organ in connection with
the Executive Department. The curse now
proposed would lead TO much confusion, aud
there would be an increase Of IS or so per cent.
over the amount reported by the Committee on
Ways and Means.
Sir. Letter, Of Ohio, wished TO know how two
millions could be saved by referring the bill to
the Naval Committee
MT. Sherman, Of New York, replied that the
bill appropriates over two millions for the Navy
yards, and over three millions for repairs to YES
sells. He was prepared to show that too much
money was spent in repairs. The Expenditures
at the Navy Yards have largely increased since
1880 IhEee-iourihs of the sum named might
be saved 10 the government
Mr.. Grow, of Pa, advocated the pending mo-
ton. AS tss onset to bring the legislation
Of the country TO proper basis the rules should
be changed so 40 to refer the estimates from the
Departments for the Navy, Army, &c, to the
appropriate committees, and after the commit
tees shall report their bills, they should be re
ierred to the Committee on Ways and Means
THE following passage from lecture of ".
Rossuth on the characteristics of the principal
European nations, recently delivered in Edin-
burgb, is both acute and striking
II. Kossuih referred to the English word
common sense" word highly characteristic
of the national mind, but which had no proper
equivalent in either French or German The
French sens eomRun and the German jeueinsInA
expressing ideas entirely different On the 9th
.er hand, the master-word Of tue French nation.
al character was esprit which defied the whole
pathological profession 20 translate into English
The essence OF the German character was ex-
pressed by the word ge1uth but, take the OK
ford aud Cambridge, take the Sorbonne and
French Academy, and every French and English
scientific circumlocution office, and though they
pounded them all to powder and dust they
would not make one particle Of German 1euuth
either in English French The Hungarian
was, to his knowledge, the only language pos.
sessing both the English common senser and
the German gemath, bat the French esprit it
had not.
