We have no doubt but that the bill will pass the Senate, without much amendment. If it does,'then may this city r.joice ihat the gteatest imuelliment to her increa sing commerce and pr6sperity is remo ved. We have soon 4t chronice the Itappy tidings.

With th's exception, the members from Pennsil vania, who w ere all 'present, voted in solid pha'anx against the bill. New York stood by principle. O her S3 members, (the other seat being left vacant by the death of Mr. [lei rick,) sixteen of the dimocrats voted to pass the bill. Fou: others, Messrs.

A Buffalo Tale.-I had a friend in the Indian country who was 'a rare -narrator, but suspected of embellishment. He nev. er failed in a story. He was a genius. No matter what the incident, he would re late it so as to he inteuse'y interesting, or irresistibly amusing. He had one buffa lo tale, tough as any he used to tell with a naivette and earnestness, that made as forget its improbable features. . - " One morning, when I was in the Blank foot country,' he would say. - I. went out accompanied by an old Spanish hunter, (we call the Mexicans all Spaniards; you know,) to get a few buffalo steaks ; and seeing an old bull asleep... I took a-fancy to have a ride, .without . saddle or bridle. So I crept-up and sprang upon his back.' * The dev-' we would exclaim.- - 'And off he went, full tilt, towards a small but bottom .prairie,. the Spaniard running after us as fast air he could.' * And you on bis back ?' we.would ask. *'Yes sir-fact-and I kept beating him with my gun -stick on the side-of the head, until his course became circular, and he make several tours of the little prairie. I could have easily killed him with my knife. but I wanted to showv the Spaniard, who had run to the middle of the prairie, some feats of fiersemanship, 'as he kept walking round ice the ring-master of a circus. At !ength yec:dne within two hundred yards of the Spaniard.'. .- . *Shall I shoct ?' he bawled out. 'No, wait a little,' said I. * In what part 1' dIehind the foreshoulder!' * Well, said he,' raising his rifle, 'kold up your leg!1'- .. Then, afte'r our, astonishment had been sufficiently expressed, he woultd assure us that the Spaniard brought the bull dowp pursuant to. order; and he had ad oldl pair of eelskin breeches. ripped on the neither edge of one le.g by a bullet, which he tried to assure us we're the identtcal breeches he wore on that occasion. *'And you ::ee, sir," he wetild- add. -"1 did'nt hold my leg quite high enough."
