Congressional.
Senate.-Thc credentials of Messrs. An
thOny and Cragin were presented.
The following is L sample OF the discus
sion on the tax sale bill which was passed
to-day:
MIR. Trumbull called up the bill to con-
firm the title OF purchasers to lands sold for
taxes in the late insllrrectionary States.
Mr.. Bayard opposed the bill, and said
confirmed sales, which had been attended
with the grossest Irregularities, and the
conditions imposed Oh the original owner
before lie can recover his land, are most
onerous and unjust.
MIR. Trumbull said the man who neglect
ed to puy his taxes deserved to pay the
costs before he could recover his property.
MIR. Casserly said the bill was designed to
make void sale for taxes valid one, and
to impose conditions of recovery that were
extraordinary and unheard OF, and, in his
judgment, illegal. :.
Mr.. Bayard moved to strike out the clause
requiring the payment of costs and penal
ties by the original owner before receiving
back his land which motion was rejected.
He then moved to amend by providing
that the bill shall only be of effect when the
sales were made according to law. He said
he knew that in some OF these sales the
costs had been piled up without regard to
law. This amendment was also rejected,
and the bill was then passed.
Mrs. Lincoln's pension was postponed.
The appropriation bill was resumed.
There isa provision in it giving S5OO, wv for
the Charleston custom-house.
House.-The general disability bill was
discussed.
The naturalization bill as amended by the
Senate was passed-ayes, 123; nays, 90

The majority report Of the Election Com
mittee to the effect that Joseph Segar, con-
gresham at large from Virginia, is not en-
titled to seat i'll the'House, was after an
hours debate adopted wit hout division.
Fifty thousand dollars was appropriated

A RADICAL paper at Greenville, Tenn,
the National Onion, speaks of "a split in
the Conservative party" thereby mean
ing, it may be, that Andy Johnson has
split of from the Democratic party-fOr
the split hath this extent, no more. The
same paper refuses to support Roderie
Random Butler, who is the candidate of
his own party for Congress, because it
says sit is nothing less than the duty, not
only of the public journals, but of every
public man, to inform the people that
when they vote for Mr.. Butler, they sup
port a man who has been dishOnOred by a
unanimous censtae of the House of Rep
resentstives. To admit less than this
would be acting in bad faith" There have
been some things eensurGble in Buffers
career. He is somewhat imperfect. But
what of the party which sustains him,
when Congress and the Radical editor are
ashamed to do it?
