CONGRESS. TH1HTIT-THIRD CONGRtSS f IRST SKS8J0N. Senate, Tuesday, JPV6. 14, 1854. The galleries were crowded at an early hoar, in the expectation of hearing the Hon. Saiu. Houston speak on the Nebraska Bill. The Chair laid before the Senate a commu nication trow General Armstrong, of the Union, asking to be released from the engagement be tween that paper and the Senate, for the pub lication of its debates and proceedings. He says that the proceedings of the Senate exolude from the paper the proceedings of the House, and the compensation allowed is altogether in adequate. The communication was referred to tbe Committee on Printing. Mr. Johnson submitted a resolution, tbat John C. Rives furnish the Senate with an equal number of the prooeedingi of both Houve^ that he now furnishes to the House. Mr. Seward and Mr. Brodliead presented memorials from Now York and Pennsylvania, against the passage of any aot repealing or abrogating the Missouri Compromise. Mr. Bayard presented memorials in favor of Congress adopting the prinoiple of Congression al non-intervention in all Territorial Bills. The Senate resumed the consideration of the bill providing for the settlement of the olaims of American citizens for spoliations oommitted by the Frenoh prior to 1800. Mr. Pettit resumed, and concluded his re marks in support of the bill. The bill was then passed?yeas 26, nays 17? as follows: Yeas?Messrs. Allen, Badger, Bayard, Bell, Dawson, Evans, Pish, Foot, Hamlin, Houston, James, Jones of Tennessee, Mallory, Morton,.

Adams, Bright, Brown, Cass, Chase, Clay, Dodge of Wisoonsin, Dodge of Iowa, Douglas, Fitzpatrick, Jones of Iowa, Ma son, NorriB, Rusk, Slidell, Walker, and Wil liams?17. The Senate then resumed the consideration of the bill to establish a Territorial Govern ment for Nebraska. Mr. Houston then addressed the Senate in defenoe and vindication of the Indians. He traoed the history of the Cherokees from the time of the treaty of 1785 down to their loca tion in the present Territory of Nebraska, which was guarantied them by the most sa cred pledges of the Government^ that in the enjoyment of this home they should never be disturbed. He aocused the Government of bad faith, and asked when had the Government ever done an honest act, or fulfilled any promise with re spect to the Indians ? He advooated the policy of furnishing Indians with food and the means of prosecuting agriculture, in which they would soon beoome civilized and christianized com munities. The present policy of keeping up armed posts, &o., cost more than would in a few years christianise and civilize every Indian oast of the Rooky Mountains. He elaborated theee points at great length. Mr. Houston had not oonoluded, when he yielded the floor, and the subject was post poned The Senate proceeded to the consideration of Executive business. House of Representatives, Feb. 14,1854. The following is the Committee of Inquiry, appointed in pursuanoe of the resolution of Mr. Maee, to make investigations respecting certain ocean mail steamers, &o., to : Messrs Mace, Goode, Walsh, Reeee, Kittredge, Pen nington, Elliott, J. C. Allen, and Puryear. The Speaker laid before the House several Executive communications; whioh were laid on the table, and ordered to be printed. Mr. Murray, from the Committee on Print ing, reported baok, and asked to be discharged from, the consideration of certain resolutions and memorials, inoluding a proposition to print 500 extra oopies of the Blue Book; also, to fur nish publio schools with oopies of the Presi dent's Message and accompanying documents The committee also asked to be discharged from the consideration of tbe Census Report, and the application of J. C. G. Kennedy for permission to compile certain information there from ; and that they be referred to the Joint Committee on the Ceusus. Assented to. Mr. Stanton proposed a resolution, to autho i rize the printing of 10,000 oopies of the Patent | Report for 1853- 4, for the use of that office, j ana 30,000, for the use of the House. Tbe lat ter number was, on motion of Mr. Straub, in creased to 50,000; and the resolution was adopted. On motion of Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, the House then resolved itself into Committee oi , the Whole on tbe Homestead Bill, Mr. Olds in the ohair. This bill is entitled: " A bill to enoourage Siculture. commerce, manufactures, and all i er branches of industry, bv granting to of ery man, who in the head of a family, and n oitieeu of the United State#, a homestead of 160 acres of land, out of the publio domain, upon oondition of oooupancy and cultivation of , the same, for tbe period herein specified.'' Mr. Dawson addrossed the Committee at length, in support of this bill. Mr. Mace arose, and said that be proposed, for the first time in his life, to deliver a speech from the manuscript He said that he would speak upon the bill whioh had been reported to this House from the Committee on Territo- , ries, and which was identioal with that now before the Senate in relation to Nebraska. In order that he might not be catoohised in ! the oourse of his remarks, he said he would ex plain his past oon rse upon all kindred ques tions. He proceeded to do so, and ahowed that he had never ocoupied a position antagonistic ! to the interests of the slave States. Tbe Compromise of 1850 did not, in bis opin- I ion, repeal the Compromise of 1820?a oom- j pact that had been made in good faith, and approved, sanotiontd, and re-affirmed, in all the subsequent legislation of the country bear ing diroowy or indirectly upon the subject. The present is the first time, the speaker said, thafe Slavery has formed the basis of par ty divisions. In all former times the boast ap- ; peered to be that one party contained more Pro-Slavery men than the other. It bad been said in the Senate that Mr. Clay himself doubted the constitutionality of the ! Missouri Compromize. If this were so, all hia tory in relation to it most be false; and if Mr. Clay were now alive, not only would this state meat not be made, but a proposition to repeal that Compromise would hardly be made in any body of whioh he was a member. Mr. Mace related incidents of the history of the Compromise of 1850, and deecantod upon the nature of the conoeeKions then made. He said they were made by tbe North in good faith, and that their boasted finality was honestly believed in. He was still speaking, when our report closed. _ Sardinia is filling all its garrisons and mag seines with provisions and stores, and is provi ding in every possible way for the event of a European war. It is said that an allianoe with Frjuioe has been ooncluded. Defaulter.?A man namod James Phillips absconded from Winnsboro', S. C. on the 24th ult, with about S24.000 in bills, belonging to the firm of Fisher, Agnew, & Co., of Columbia, The export of cereals from tbe United States, in the year 1847, equalled the export of cot ton? the value of the former having been $56,868,383, and of the latter, ?53,415,848.

He dethrones, in the belief of o^rtnin foolish and unprincipled people, the Saviour of Mankind, and proclaims, in place of a pure and perfect system of faith and practice, the worship and unqualified obedienoo to a human being, and the practice of a sensual usage which is revolt ing to the principles, polioy, and prejudices, of the Christian world.

Mr. Furness, (Unitarian,) of Philadelphia, at the churoh of Rev. Mr. Chapin, (Universal it*,) upon the subject of " Practical Religion." He said he supposed some people would think it strange that he, an Orthodox olergyman, should give such a notioe; but though Mr. Furnees entertained a different system of the ology from him, yet he was right on the great question of human rights and human progress, and an eminently practical Christian. He added, that some men live bettor with a bad system of theology, than many men did who had a good one; and that lisome men could do more with a jack knife, than other men could do with a whole chest of tools " The foreign imports of Boston reached, the last year, to nearly forty-four millions.

To those persons who may visit Washington, and are in want of a boot that cannot bo excelled, either in uuality or workmanship, we would call their atten tion to the card of Henry Jannoy, to be found under tbe head of " Washington." A handsome and neat ly-mado boot is not at all times a source of pleasure to the wearer, but otton one of extreme torture; this is caused by the bungling manner in which tho hoot is fitted to tho foot. Mr. Jannoy has devoted much of his time in studying the construction of the human loot, in order to ascertain how a boot should be cut and fittod, that will be perfectly easy to all parts of tho foot. In this ho has succeeded, so that it matters not what may bo the shape of. or the number of corns on tho foot, his boot is jierfectly easy. Thps he has combined beauty with comfort.
