aVote OF thanks by Congress to Commander David
d, Porter, for bravery and skill displayed In the

ing reported bill TO expedite the printing Of the
| Presidents Message and accompanies documents,
which was taken up and passed.

shall be delivered to the Superintendent Of Public
Printing prior TO the meeting Of Congress, and be
printed within'ten days after the commencement
OF the session.
Mr.. ANTHONY offered a resolution providing
| for the distribution Of documents, belonging to
senators from states unrepresented, among Sena-
tors that are present. Adopted.
Mr. WILKINSON offered a resolution request.
| Ing the President to communicate to the Senate,
whether or not any commissioner, representative
| or agent Of the United States, has received from

Commodore Van Brunt, Chas S. Hhswell and L. J.

sing the name Of Com. Vanderbilt, for he thought
that Vanderbilt was more blsmeable than the 9TH
ers. He Aldpe knew Of the destination Of the eX-
petition, while these very men whom the resolu-
ton proposes to censure knew nothing Of where
the vessels were going; and they testify that, II
they had known, they should have protested against
sending out such vessels He believed that as to
Com. Van Brunt, he was more sinned against than
si- ring.
Mr.. GRIMES offered the following resolution:
RcSOipod That Thomas J. Southland is accountable,
under the rules ofwRr, as army contractor, and
should be dealt with accordingly.
Resolred That at least Eve per cent Of the earn.
lngs OF vessels chartered by through him ehould
be retained by the QuaTtermaster, upon the
amounts due to said SOuthardj also, that the owner
OF the steamer Niagara is not entitled TO any COM
pcnsation for the employment of said vessel, but
Is liable for the damage sustained by reason OF her
until ness for the purposes for which she was char
tered.
The resolution was then postponed.

which Is to tear to pieces that most rotten
society and leave the Northern half of the
old American Union a desert of bloodsoaked
ashes. We bid it good speed.
But all this may have little or no effect ON

because 1t portends the breaking down of the
whole structure of Yankee society. Yet the
process may be lorg; and in the meantime

rlous for a season.
No matter; We can at least now see 10 the
