Proceedings OF To-Day,

In THE SENATE, to-day, Mr.. Bright sent up
a resolution setting aside Saturday of this
week for the consideration of District bust
ness, which he said he would call up to NOR
row morning.
Mr.. Bayard entered a motion to reconsider
the Pennsylvania Avenue Railroad bill
Mr.. Ben amin called up the resolution that
hereafter, during the session, the Senate meet
at i o'clock a. IN. Amended on motion of
Mr.. Bayard, so as to take effect on and after
Monday next; passed.
The revenue resolution, offered a few DAYS
ago by Mr.. Bigler, being taken up as the spc-
cial order,
Mr.. TOOmbs proceeded to speak at length
against IN increase of tariff duties, as proposed
by Mr.. Biglcr in his speech yesterday.
In THE HOUSE, various executive and de-
partmcntal communications were received and
referred
Among them was commune ltion from the
Secretary of the Treasury, stating that tie
reason why the erection of a Court House in
Baltimore city had not been commencei, as
provided for in a bill passed by the Thirty
fourth Congress, was that the state of the
treasury had been such to forbid such ex-
penditure sinco the appropriation became
available, and that since the financial re-
| yulsion no new public buildings had been
commenced by the Government. lie also
called attention to the fact that he had
given the same reason in his reports for 1857
and 1853, and as no adverse action was taken
by Congress, supposed that the action had been
approved.
Sir. Harris, of Nd, said that was not a good
reason; for at the close of last Congress there
was surplus Of $50 900, 600 in the Treasury,
and the Secretary had unnecessarily used
$4,000, 900 of thBt sum to redeem Government
securities at 49, per cent.
Mr. Phelps, of No, sustained the course
pursued by the Secretary, and urged that the
interests Of the country had been subseryed
by it.
On motion of Mr.. Harris, the communica.
ton was referred to the Committee of Ways
and Means, with instructions to report anew
the appropriation of 100000 for the construc-
ton OF the Building referred to.
The House then proceeded to the considera
tlon OF the bill for the annual appropriations
Tor the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial
branches of Government
Tho question being on the amendment re-
commended by the Committee Of the Whole, to
strike out of the appropriation for contincen-
cies $50. 600 it was disagreed to.
The amendment to reduce the compeusation
OF members from 81 .2l9 600 to SI,OI9, 900
striking out the amount for mileage, 5000 900,
was agreed to by vote of liz yeas, - nays.
Amendments were adopted striking out the
appropriations tor the Globe, reporting rro-
ceedings of the House, repairs and boxes, wa
ges of wOrkmeD, &c, amounting in the aggre-
cato TO over 500, 600.

Split OF THE MORNING PRESS.

The Union, In an able article on Inc
Public Expenditures" gives statistics show
ing exactly what the expenditures are, ana
expresses the opinion that economy, 80 much
talked about in Congress, ought, like charity
to begin at home. That, for instance, there
would be an evident improperly in legislators
exerting their skill in economy too exclusively
on the salaries and pay of our own Naval and
Army officers, many of whom are bufeting
with hardship and privation on the solitudes
of the ocean or the desolations of the plains
1t suggests that if members are sincere in
their purpose of instituting sound economy
in the public administration, it would be the
best manifested, if they commenced it in their
own department of the government; that the
subject Of Congressional expenditure presents
most interesting department for the exercise
of the pruning knife and that the expenses
of federal legislation, compared with those
which attend the legislation of the States, pre-
sent most striking contrast.
The Intsltigsncer is devoted to Congressional
proceedings and news to-day.

CONGR ESSfONAL.

In THE SENATE, yesterday, considerable de-
bate ensued on the proposition of Mr.. Bigler to
consider the resolution offered by himself few
days ago declaring against the creation of
national debt, and in favor of increasing the
tariff.
Messrs Brown, Mallory, Mason, and Bayard
object ted to taking up the resolution now
Mossrs. Bigler and Clingman favored the
proposition.
Messrs. Toombs and Mallory insisted if it was
taken up the debate should be continued, so
as to allow both sides to be heard.
The motion to take up being agreed to
yeas %, nays 23-
Mr.. Bigler addressed the Senate at length in
favor of an increase of the tariff as the correct
| mode for raising an adequate revenue.
Mr.. Toombs obtained tho floor to reply,
when
Mr.. johnson, of Tenn, submitted as a sub
stitute for the resolution, another requesting
| the President TO cause the executive officers to
| submit estimates for governmental expenses
| during the Thirty-sixth Congress on a basis
| not exceeding Sc, 900 900 per annum, exclu-
| sive of the public debt; and that the Finance
Committee, in conformity with the President's
| recommendation, DO instructed to report bill
| to reform all abuses of the public treasury and
reduce the expenditures to the narrowest limits
possible.
| TIE further consideration of the subject being
postponed, tho Senate proceeded to consider the
| Avennc Railroad bill, which was finally reject
ed. Adjourned.
| In THE House, the Legislative, Executive
and Judicial Appropriation bill being under
consideration
On motion of Mr.. Stanton, the appropriation
of Si5, geo for the salaries of Clerks in Survey.
or Generals Office, was struck out
On motion of Mr.. Grow, the appropriation
| for the New York Assay Office was reduced tc
$50 900, from $14 600.
On motion of Mr.. Branch, the appropriation
| of 81 ,0O0, 900 for the purchase of property in
New York, for court house, was reduced &c
| $3.50, 900.
Mr. Lovejoy moved to strike out the appro.
| priatiOn for safe -keeping of prisoners, under
| the impression that it alluded to the detention
of fugitive slaves, which was abhorrent to his
feelings. He was set right in regard to the
meaning of the clause; and tho amen dment
was rejected.
| The committee then rose, and, reporting the
bill to the House, that body proceeded to &C
| on the amendments
! The amendments to strike out s 40 S33 30 for
the Globe and binding of the same, and SIS ,04f
for reporting proceedings of the House, were
agreed to by tie vote the Speaker giving an
affirmative vote. Subsequently, tho amend
| mcnt was reconSidered and rejected by a vote
