WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Senate.-Resolu
lions were offered calling on the President
for all the facts regarding the San Domingo
treaty, and the employment of troops In
the elections.

American Shipping.
WASHINGTON, Dec. GA new scheme for
reviying American commerce was developed
in the House to-day. It is, In substance, to
give permission to buy foreisn-bntlt steam
ers from any company who will contract
for an equal number Of vessels to be fur
nished the United States. This is for the
purpose Of establishing a transatlantic
line of steamers to carry the mails. The
foreign-built ships are to receive an Ameri-
cun registry without the payment of any
duties
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Drake will
be nominated for Chief Justice Of the Court

General News.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-There was q full
Cabinet meeting to-day.
The Senate confirmed Beckwith as attor-
ney for Louisiana, Bowden assessor for the
second Virginia district, Randolph survey
or of customs for Houston, Texas.
1t appears from diplomatic correspond
ence that Minister Motley on August 11th
telegraphed the following to Secretary
Fish 80 1t is authentic that the French
Government telegraphed to London yester
day to know if General Lee is here, or
whether he is expected. The suppostlon
| is that military command would be offered
him. The Government is not aware that
General Lee is in London or that he Is ex-
pected. The fact. however, that the French
Government should show such anxiety to
obtain the assistance Of military talent from
such distant quarter would seem to argue
that there was some want in the govern
mcnt of their armies"
1t is stated on proper authority that the
I Government has only redeemed $780, 900 of
the counterfeit 7-30 bonds.
Several prominent Mormons arrived here
| from Utah to-day. Their business is under
stood to be to urge claim for the payment
| of their Territorial militia, in service against
| the Indians, and endeayor to secure the ap.
pointment of Governor who is not hostile
to them. They profess to be able to get
along tremendously with any man OF good
sense and honesty.
