CONGRESS.
THIRT*-THIRD CONUMUMJ? rilWT tfCttUON.
Striate, Thursday, March 23, 1854.
Oo motion of Mr. Allen,
He wived, That the Committee on Agricul
ture be authorised to employ a clerk.
Mr, Sumner presented resolutions adopted
at the annual town meeting held at Bridge
water, Massachusetts, remonstrating against
the repeal of the Missouri prohibition ot Ma
A lso, similar resolutions adopted by^be towu
or Northampton, Massachusetts.
On motion by Mr. Evans, the Senate pro
oeeded to the consideration of th? bill to pro
vide for the final settlement of the olaims of
the officers oi the Revolutionary army, and oi
the widows and orphan children of those who
died in the service.
Mr. Evans addressed the Senate till nearly
ono o'clock in explanation of the bill, and it
was then postponed.
Mr Hunter, from the Committee on finance,
reported back the Deficiency bill, with several
amendments, whioh were ordered to be printed.
And then, on motion, the Senate proceeded
to the consideration of Executive business.
House of Representatives, March 23, 1854.
Mr. Chandler asked the unanimous oontsent
of the House to take up the Senate bill on the
Speaker's table, for the leasing for a term of
not-less than ten years of certain buildings in
Philadelphia, for the use of the post olhoe, and
the United States Distriot Court for the East
ern District of Pennsylvania, and its offices.
Mr. Stanton, of Tennessee, from the Com
mittee on the Judiciary, stated that numerous
petitions were before the oommittee for perma
nent edifices of like oharaoter in Boston and
New York; that the oommittee intended to
make a report in compliance therewith; and
that they were now prepared to report a bill,
making provision of temporary places for the
uito of the courts. ?
Mr. Chandler urgod the passage of his bill.
A debate sprang up (in which Messrs. Pro
ton, Clingman, Florence, and others, participa
ted) on the principle of providing such odincos
in the different cities.
On motion, it was finally committed to the
Committee on the Judiciary.
Mr. Fuller called up a bill to extend the
warehousing system, by establishing private
bonded warehouses, and for other purposes;
upon whioh his motion for reconsideration was
. pending when the bill, was formerly before the
House.
Mr. F. explained the nature of the measure
at some length, and urged its immediate pas
sage, as a thing required by the interests of
commerce and the country.
Before the question was taken on this bill,
Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, moved that the
House should go into Committee of the Whole
on the Indian appropriation bill; pending
which, ' .
Mr. Orr offered the usual resolution, that
ihe consideration of the Indian appropriation
bill in Committee, be closed at 2 P. M., to
morrow.
The House then went into Committee of the
Whole, (Mr. Phelpe in tho chair.)
Mr. Millson arose and addressed the House
on tho Nebraska bill. He thought this bill
should bo acceptable to tho North. Indeed, it
was hardly just to the South. The Senate bill
was objectionable. That reported by the gon
~ tleman, from Illinois [Mr. Richardson] was in
finitely better ; but he was not disposed to go
into ex tames about that.
In 1848, there was a Nebraska bill. It was
supported by the North, and opposed by the
South. Bat two Southern Senators (those of
Missouri) had voted for it They then thought
it premature.
He was then against increasing the number
of Territories He thought young America
was progressing too fast ? faster than was
neoessary. New, the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise was to compensate the South, and
that, too, although even, acoording to Senators
Douglas, Hunter, and Badger, a slaveholding
Territory was not expected The theory is all
that oould be gained! Slavery was by Con
gress excluded from certain *1 erritones, but
was to be admitted into Nebraska and Kansas
because it oould not go there !
But the Missouri restriction is to be repealed
because the repeal would be of no effect. A
now affront was then to be given in the at
tempt to wipe off an old one.
Mr. M. ridiculed the idea of conceding to
squatters the right of legislating for that Terri
tory, He would give to them the right of self
government, which might often be safely in- i
trusted to a child or an idiot; but he would
not vest in them the important functions of
legislating for those vast Territories, and per- !
haps controlling their destinies throughout all
future time. ? ?
Mr. Hunt followed on the same subject. He
commenced by saying that he arose ii\ the
spirit of an Amerioan Representative, who
comprehended within his affections the wel
fare of the whole nation. He believed that he
was incapable of entertaining a sectional pre
judice, und especially upon a subject so mo
mentous. He feared no opposition from any
source, no outcry or clamor. He thought but
of the peace, baranony, unity, and weltare of
the whole Republic, and he desired only to per
petuate them.
Tho bill he arose to consider contemplates
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise To
that repeal he was opposed, because it would
be unjust, in violation of good faith, and adapt
ed to disturb the tranquillity of the oonntry,
and even to hazard the bonds of our National
Union.
Mr. Hunt then entered into a review of the
history of the Missouri Compromise, during
which our report olosed. *

To those persons who may visit Washington, and

the head of " Washington " A handsome and neat
ly-made boot is not at all times a source of pleasure
to the wearer, but often one of extreme torture; this
Is caused by the bungling manner in which the boot
is fitted to the foot, Mr. Janney has devoted moeh
of his time in studying the construe!ion of the human
foot, in-order to ascertain how a boot should be cut
and fitted, that will be perfectly easy to all parts of j
the foot. In Ihis he has succeeded, so that II mailers j

having spared neither pains nor oxponse in makiug
them in every respect the most convenient and pleas
ant school rooms in the United States.
The plan adopted iu teaching worn bines practice
with theory; instead of uiing books, the pupils are
exercised in making original entries of every day
business transactions. Journalising, posting, balan
cing accounts, opening and closing of a great variety
of different sots of books, both for pirtnerrhip and
Individual business, where tbe business has been
prosperous and advene; and thus qualifying the stu

conn taut, in any kind of business.

trade and mercantile accounts, vis: Wholesale, Re
tail, Commission, Exchange, Banking. Manufactur
ing, Shipping, Individual,Partnership, Steamboat ing,

Esq, Hon. Bellamy Storer, Prof C. W. Wright, and
other eminent lecturers, to deliver a course of Lec
tures on the subjects of Commercial Law, History of
Commerce, Political Economy as connected with
commerce, and other subjocts of great importance in
a commercial point of view, and nover before intro
duced in any Mercantile College in the United States.
Pupils are instructed individually, and not in class
es ; so that students may enter at any time, and pro
ceed in the ratio of their capacity and assiduity.
Public examinations are had, (though pupils are
examined privately, if they desire it,) whou tbe Un
dent undergoes rigid an thorough interrogations by
tbe Principal, (assisted by a committoe of Practical
Accountants and business men,) and Diplomas award
ed to thoso who are deemod worthy of them.
A course can be completed in from six to ten weeks.
The Principal will take pleasure in doing every
thing in his power to advance his students, and make
. them thorough and accomplished accountants; and
big extensive acquaintance with the business commu
nity will generally enable him to procure situations
for those desirous of obtaining them.
