The senate resumed, in committee of the whole, Mr Dickerson in the chair* the bill to discontinue the Indian trade system, and to provide for opening the trade to iudividuals under certain reg ulations. Mr. Benton withdrew the motion which he made yesterday to reeommit the bill with certain instructions; and, in lieu thereof, moved to strike out alt those sections which proposed to estab lish a system of private trade, by li cense, under the management of a prin cipal superintendent to reside at the seat of government, and assistant su perintendent to reside at St, Louis, in Missouri. The effect of this motion was to limit the present bill to a simple abolition and settlement of the concerns of the present factory system. The question was taken on this mo tion without debate or objection, and carried, and, The bill, &• amended, was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time. The Senate then, according to the order of the day, icok up in committee of the'whoie, Mr. Otis in the chair, the amendments reported by the committee on Public Lauds, in pursuance of in structions of the Senate, to the bill con firming the title of the Marquis de MaS son Rouge.
