CONGRESSlONAL,

Conclusion Of Yesterdays Rrece eainss.
SENATE-After our report closed yesterday-
Inc senate went into execuuve e, ssfon.
After remaining therein five minutes, the doors
were reopened
The bill 10 admit the State Of Ar Kansas b
representation i'll Congress IVES taken up.
MT. Drake advocated the ameudme It 10 the
bill heretofore offered by him.
The debate was continued at considerable
length by Messrs TTumbull, Morton, Stewart,
Sherman. Conkling and Buckalew.
Mr.. Ferry moved TO amend the original bill
by striking out all the conditions which are
attached 10 the readmission, so as to make the
RescIred, DE-. That the State Of Arkansas is
entitled and admitted to Representatives in CON-
gress IS one of the States of the Union
Mr.. Ferry expressed his utter disbelief in the
doctrine that Congress had any power to i'm
pose conditions of admission upon any State
II, however, the Senate refused to adopt his
amendment he should stin vote for the bill, as
be DID not consider the conditions worth more
than so much blank paper.
Mr.. Sherman believed IL il had not been for
the evil influence OF Andrew johnson, these
States would all have been in long ere this on
the basis of the 1&th amendment
Mr.. Buckalew. by Unanimous consent SUBJ
mItted resolution that any enforced attend
ance OF Senator before the committee Of the
House investigating violation Of the rights
and privileges of the Senate and q voluntary
attendance OF any Senator on such committee
would be manifestly improper
The resolution went over; and the Senate
adjourned.
HousE.-Yesterday after our closed, the
Indian appropriation bill being under con-
sideration-
On motion Of MI. Lawrence, COhio,) the bill
was amended by proviso that the President
shall dispense with the services OF such Indian
agents from time to time as may not be re-
quired.
number of amendments were proposed
and rejected, but some amendments were
adopted increasing the whole amount of ap-
preparation several thousand dollars.
Without concluding the consideration of the
bill the committee rose, and the House ad-
Journed.
AFTER the adjournment, the Clerk read a
notice calling caucus of Republican members
in the hall of the House tonight at O'Clock. ]

The POTOMAC FIsHERIKs.-The run of shad
in the Potomac this season has been very light.
owing partly TO the backwardness of the sea-
sen and the freshets. but in a greater measure
10 the destructive methods Of fishing with long
seines, gill-nets, &c, which are killing off the
fish. In the olden times thousands of shad
were caught at a single haul of the short seines:
more than are now caught in a weeks fishing
with the loEg seines. 1t has been SAID that
fishermen make as much money at the high
prices now as they did then, with more fish and
low prices. That is not 80. Fortunes were
made in those days at the fisheries, but now al
most as much money is sunk in a fishery in
one seaso as can be lost in the same time in
establish hing newspaper. The fishing grows
worse each year, and will continue TO dose un-
til the fishermen cease to catch all the shad
entering the river, and allow portion to reach
the upper waters of the Potomac TO spawn. or
until they take measures to breed them artificl-
ally.

The plan tor the reunion of the Old and New
School branches of the Presbyterian Church.
which has been in preparation for more than a
year past, seems not likely to be adopted with
out more debate and discussion. 1t is now nm
Tor ratification before the Old School General
Assembly at Albany, and the New School Gen.
eral ASSEMBLY at Harrisburg, but in both bod
Us ieeseounters serious opposition. DIR. Breck-
enrlcge, aIhong the Old School divines, has
made long speech against 1t; and DIR. Patter
son, OF the New School, is likewise disaffected.
The result will be looked for with great inter-
est by the members Of all denominations.

ACTIN PEACE COINED,

The great powers of Europe, each one jeaI-
Gus Of the other, and all eagerly engaged in the
work Of strengthening their defences, manu-
tscturing improved fire arms experimenting
in murderous weapons, and bringing their
best talent to bear on military and naval prob
lens, stll persist in their professions of de-
sire for peace, and every week or two we hear
something of armies reduced, propositions for
n disarmament, &c, &C., which all turn out to
amount to just nothing at all. so far as the pre-
servation of peace is concerned. BY such an
nouncements no one is deceived. and ii Is rather
singular that they should be made so systsmat-
ically and Professionally. 1t is true. no doubt,
that England, Austria and Prussia, as well as
other European nations, have grown weary of
the excessive ornaments, and that they would
gladly reduce them If they could. But so long
as they are so jealous OF each other. and afraid
of each other, nothing can come OF their good
1stfntions except wars and bankruptcy
The curtain has Just raised upon the latest
act in the farce. The cable brings MS news of
another proposition for a general disarmament
This time it is England that takes the initia.
tive, and the proposition is made TO Austria in
the first place. This is especially suggestive
IN view of the fact that the English Budget
for the rext financial year contains increased
appropriations for the Navy, while the new
Austrian Conscripton Law, recently adopted,
is modelled upon the Prussian and French sys-
TENS, and Is ingeniously eontrived so as TO
make a soldier of every able bodied man in the
Empire. We have the report from Prussia of
a movement IN the same direction. II appears
that the King has ordered a reduction of the
Landwehr or militia on this years conscrip-
ton. This reduction does not amount to much.
especially as the best engineering talent of
Prussia is now engaged in Strengthening the
defences of the kin gdom so as to render one
nan equal TO a number of assailants.
