Iff. 'MHIson raid, ns no quorum was
present to take a vote on the question of
laving on the table the resolution offered
by Mr. hidings. he would propose that
the House go into committee, with the
tew of taking up the l'acilic Ruilroad
Hill, and thereby taw one day, wntch
wan aprred to.
Mr. Chnstnin fnolt the floor, nnd pro
eeedrd to show the time hnd arrived,
when the grand interests of this country
demanded thai Cuba should change
hands. This, he contended, is demand
ed l-y our social as well as our political
interest. He had no doubt that this
would be dissented Irom, as opposition I
was made to the ac(jui*ijion of Loutsi
nna, Florida, California, and the annex*
lion of Texas but the wisdom of those
measures are now generally acknowl
edged, having resulted in a great bene til
lo our common country.
He then stated the reason* why we
should urge negotiations at the earliest
j^day possible, as the liberation ol the
slaves on that island would interfere with
the domestic institution!! of the South.
fp:iin must veld, and France ami En
gland must submit. If Npain should
*|e
fuse a liberal compensation, she must
abide the consequences, as it is our n#
efssity demands she shall make the sac
r.fice, which will redound to our pros
peritv, and to the happine«s of the hu
man family. We should take measures i
fnr the purchase of the Island without
Ijelay, and call on .Spain »o name her
Ihms. If she wiM not do so, ho would
go for in undisguised open war lo take
the island.
Mr. Letcher moved to strike out the
touting clause of the Pacific It* 11 road
hill, which motion wns lost.
Mr. Caruthers asked and obtained
leave to print a speech in fivor of grant
il'g 'and for railway purposes, and ced-j
the public lands to the States in
which they lie.
Mr. Cutting, from the Committee on
Judicial), reported adversely on a large
of petitions lor the abolition of
fdavery and the Fugitive Slave Law and
they were alt laid oil the table.
Mr. liucock reported a bill re organ
Jging the navy, which was referred to

Cerriti Smith offered an amendment
providing that the Post Oiilce Deparl
ttient be abolished at the end of two
^vears, and leave the matter of conveying
the mails to prtvdte enterprise, when it
would be (lone better and cheaper.
Mr. Singleton, severely commented
upon the course of Mr. Fillmore for hav
ing submitted to Spain, relative to Cuba
affairs. He spoke of various outrages
committed by Spain against us, and ad
vocated the demand of instant indemnity
for the outrages and assurances that the
like should not be repeated. Should
Spain refuse, he was in favor of bring
ing all the power of the United States
to blockade the Island, and take possess
ion of it.
Mr. Latham spoke on the same sub
ject. He was opposed to acquiring Cu
ba by an unjust war. We should not
resort to force if there was a way to
avert it. If Spain attempted to lay the
island waste to spite us, and make it a
nuisance, because we desire the acquisi
tion, let us enter coor plaints and abate the
»ui«ance.
Mr. Cobb was in favor of Cuba com
ing in as a ripe apple from the tree. He
entered his solemn protest against this
government, or individuals, engaging in
unlawful expeditions to seize the Island.
After other unimportant business, the
House adjourned.
Correspondence of the N. Y. Tribune.
Fraud in the Nebraska Bill.
WASHINGTON June 13.
An astounding fraud has just been
discovered by Messrs. Campbell, of O.,
Benton, Mace, and others, in the Ne
braska Bill. It seeins thatMr. Richard
son stated to the House that his substitute
was the Senate Bill simply, without the
Clayton Proviso, when, in fact, he had
inserted a clause providing that no per
sons other than the citizen* of the Uni
ted States should hold ottice or vote until
they had sworn to support the principles
of this bill. It also provided for con
tinuing in force all laws locally applica
ble. This includes the act of 1824, ex
cluding from said territories all foreign
ers, on penalty of a thousand dollars,
without a passport from the War Depart
ment, limiting the time he shall remain,
and route of travel.
Mr. Mace will introduce a bill amend
ing and explaining the Nebraska act, and
Messrs. Benton, Campbell, and other.",
will uke the floor in denunciation oi tim
fraud thus imposed on the country.
O®* The editor of the Philndelphia
-Bulletin says he was recently in New

idea of the extent of this Territory. Its
boundary is thrpe thousand nules in

this country is not yet finished, it is
quite reasonable to suppose that many
States will some day be made out of it.
