WASHINGTON, April 19.-Mr. Chandler of
fered resolution that the President be direct.
ed to open negotiations with England for a
settlement of all open questions on basis of a
surrender OF all the British North American
possessions to the United States, and he made
speech IN support of the proposition.
Mr. Chandler read long extracts from his
former speeches to show that he originated the
position now assumed by the COMMITTEE on
Foreign Relations, and insisted that II his ad-
vice had been followed heretofore the Alabama
and all other claims would not now be remain.
ing unsettled, but that if the resolution he of
fered looking to the withdrawal of our minis
ters and noD-intersourse had been adopted,
such claims would have been paid over in thir-
ty days. In conclusion Mr.. Chandler said he
hoped the proposed negotiations would be
made and the Canadas acquired peaceably. but
If England would not settle and desired war,
let 1T be sharp, short and decisive. The sixty
Thousand veterans of Michigan alone would
see to the capture Of the British North Ameri-
can Provinces. AS in the case of France with
Mexico, Great Britain had staked the continu-
ance of her empire in America OF the distress
of the rebellion.
The resolution was then referred to the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations.
The President pro tenn. laid before tne SEN
ate the memorial of the American Emigration
Society of London, praying that assistance be
granted to persons who wish to emigrate to
the United States. He stated that the paper
naQ been soQI 10 tH0 v lCt ITbSlu6uG Dy the
American minister at the request of its sign
ers.
On motion of Mr.. Hamlin it was laid on the
table.
The President pro tenn. also submitted the
petition of 8. d. Hullivan for the removal of
his political disabilities, and resolution of the
Union League of Virginia, entreating Con-
gress to refuse all applications for the removal
OF political disabilities, unless such applica-
tions are endorsed by the regular Republican
organization of the county in which the parties
respectively reside. Referred to the Select
Committee ON Political Disabilities.
Messrs. Cole and Casserly denied having au-
thorized the statement autographed to the New
York World that there would be an extra ses-
sion of Congress.
Mr. Kellogg offered q resolution directing an
examination of the bars at the mouth of the
Mississippi, and report as to the best mode of
removing the distractions to commerce, which
was agreed to-
The Senate then, at 1.3O o'clock, proceeded
to the consideration of Executive business.
