The President sent large number of
nominations TO the Senate to-day, princi-
paily Major and Brigadier Generals.
! Among the civilians are Hon. Joseph
]. Lewis, Of Pa. to be Commissioner Of
ksyenue, and Jno. F.e Potter, Ex-Msm-
Der of Congress from Wisconsin, to b
Governor Of Decotah. Owing to the
large number additional nominations rem
dered necessary by recent laws, and the
privately expressed purpose Of Senators
to closely scrutinize the qualifications and
loyalty Of candidates, the probability II
the session will be extended to the close
Of next week.

Washington, March s..
Standing committees were announced
Mr.. Anihouy, Of h. l.. introduced :
resolution to print 1000 copies of the
nessaniile provision Of the patent Office
report, and 1000 copies of acts and joint
resolutions passed during the present ses-
sion.
Mr.. Bayard took the oath to support
the Constitution of the United S.atcs.-
Bayard Is now entering upon his new term
of Office.
Mr.. Sumner called up the additional
rule of the Senate proposed yesterday; /;
this rule prescribed that the loyal acts
passed in July last shall be subscribed to
BY the members Of this body.
Mr.. Salisbury, of Del, moved further
consideration be postponed until to-mor-
row.
Mr.. Sumner replied that the statute re-
quired that every officer. civil. military or
naval. should take the oath before enter
ing upon his duties. 6t3
Mr.. salisbury said that the oath could
not be applied because Senators had al
ready entered upon the duties of their Of
fee; hence it was utterly impossible now
10 administer it before doing SO. conse-
quently il was not applicable to this
body.
MIR. Bayard, while not rising to formally
oppose the resolutions, suggested that i'm
portant questions were involved as well
as the constitutional power 70 interfere
with the qualifications Of either branch Of
Congress.
Mr.. Davis rsu5aTksd the Law is hagi-
tiously unconstitutional. 1t imposed .
test oath. If they had right to admin
lister such an oath in one manner they had
q right to administer it in. another. Tie
majority of the Senate had great aver
sion to Copperhead Democrats but sup
pose in three or four years these Copper
head Democrats should obtain possession
OF the Government including the execu-
tive and Legislative branches and should
come up with their test oath to sustain
their own system Of political notions,
we're the gentlemen ready TO admit that
these Copperhead Democrats had cunsti-
tutional power to administer such cath I
Yet they would have as much power 70
impose their form Of oath to promote
their party ends, IS the last Congress had
to pass this law. He trusted he could
take this oath with a. clear conscience
~ any member. He held that Congress
had no power to pass Aisw imposing snchs
m OATH, He proesAded to argue that il
would be setting most mischievous pre-
cedent.
Several messages we're announced from
the President.
Mr.. Harris proposed that the Senate 81
into Executive session debate was I'M.
profitable.
Mr.. Snmner repeated there was ,
statute Of Congress requiring the oath be
taken. The question was whether they
should obey or not. To 60 into executive
session before taking the oath was to dis
regard tie law of Congress.
Senate went into executive session.

Some additional particulars of the car
,nrc of the Indanola have been received.
When she was attacked the advantage
was on the side OF the rebel rams. The
Indianola moved slowly compared with
them. They kept clear OF her bow,
where her best guns we're, and butted her
sides and stern. The Indianola kept
swinging her guna from aide to sids,. but
as fast as this was done the active asras-
sins gained the opposite side, aud in fu-
rious manner butted her again.
The Indianola had coal barges on each
side. These were sunk immediately.-
At length Capt. Brown announced her in
: sinking condition. and surrendered.
The action lasted about 90 minutes.
1t is reported at Lake Providence the
Indianoh vas sunk BY her crew to escape
capture.
