WASHINGTON, June 25.-Altogether con-

receding from the amendment until now SC
decidedly persevered In, providing for the
restoration, with few exceptions, OF all the
inland service suspended on the 4th of March,
1853, apart from the; appropriations for deb.
ciencies. ltrequires the Postmaster General
TO advertise for proposals, and contract with
the lowest responsible bidder or bidders for

from Charleston, Vid Savannah, TO Key West
and back, twice month or oftener, from the

essary, not exceeding $4,000 per annum.
This and the act establishing mails six times
week from Sacramento to Olympia, are the
only two special provisions enacted in rela-
ton TO the mails. . IL .s.- go
The committee OF the Senate unanimously
reported IN iavor OF butterheId line OF Mexi-
can Gulf mail steamers, the llouse committee
having previously acted on it favorably. The
bill was lost for want OF time. The Post
Route Bill, as previously predicted, failed,
having been returned from the Senate over
loaded with amendments.
The galleries of both Houses were densely
crowded with persons of both sexes, to wit
ness the closing scenes, which were marked
by nothing of disreputable character, as on
previous occasions. The President and mem
bers of the Cabinet were at the Capitol during
the morning, transacting business in con-
nection with public measures. t..
Among the last bills approved by the
President, is one reducing the rates for public
printing 40 per cent. ON the present prices, to
take effect from the date of its passa ge.

large body, accompanied by band of
Of music, proceeded tonight to the residence
of Mr.. Breckenridge, and having serenaded
him, he, in response to repeated calls, ap-
peared, saying he felt deeply this manifesta-
tion OF friendly regard, and accepted it as an
approval of the proceedings at Baltimore, by
which the National Democratic Convention
presented his name and that of his gallant
and honored FREUD, Gen. Lane, for President
and Vice-Presdent Of the United States.
Senator Davis followed in an eloquent
strain, of the personal and public character
Of Breckinridge and Lane. The Democracy
was not tne party Wnlcn seeks Tor sp0lls, or
rests itself upon the claims of men. When
Mr.. Van Buren proved untrue, they cast him
off as diseased member, and when at more
recent period another Democrat proved re-
creant, it remained for the party, faithful to
its institutions, to separate him also from the
body. he vindicated the Convention that
nominated Breckenridge. Let spoilsmen go
where inclination leads them. The Demoe-
racy honor Mr.. Buchanan for all he has done,
and cast the complaints of Office. seekers to
the winds. Laughter.l
He spoke Of the Constitution, State Rights,
justice and fraternity as the principles under
which Breckinridgeand Lane will be elected.
