The Senate bill to establish'a Naval Depot, at oiempbis, Tennsese, was next taken up. Mr. Hammet-spoke oa th oill, and in thecourse-of his remarks-attacked Mr, C.. Johnson, on account of his opposition to. almost every measure introduced. Mr. Johnson nade a spirited reply. Among other matters, he alluded to the book resolution passed yesterday. He said that resolution gave each member 8500 extra. There was-anotber secret about this matter. 'It was this: Many members on receiving' their $500 worth of books were in re habit of selling them to sta tioners of this city for half the amount. So that the very same books were sold over and over again at full price to Congress ovary year. Finally the bill was read a third time, and passed, by a vote 119 to 48. The Senate has been some time in Ex ecutive session. The nomination of Mr. Senator Tall madge as-Governor of Wisconsin was con-. firmed. - The nominations of Messrs. Walworth and King, to fill the vacancies in the Su preme Court, were laid on the table. The nomination of Lemuel Williams, Collector of Boston, was confirmed. That of Mr. Ferris, as Collector of New York, was rejecied. - Mr. Wickliffe was confirmed as Charge to Sardinia. Mr. B. Green, of New Jersey, was nom inated for Secretary of the Treasury. It is undlerstoad that he has just been re jected. Saturday Night, 12 o'clock, Jnne 14. George M. Bibb of Kentucky, has just been confirmed as Secretary of the Treas nry. The vote was unanimous. A great number of minor nominations were rejected. June 17. Both branches of Congress met once more this morning, at ten o'clock, there remaining only two hours of the Session. -In the House the struggle for the floor was tremendous.. - Almost every member was endeavoring .to catch. the eye of the Speaker. The consequence was that very little business was transacted. - Several abortive attempts having been made to take up the bill to recharter the District Banks, as a last resort, an amend ment was offered, authorizing them merely to wind up their business. In this shape the bill passed, and was signed by the Pre sident. -The hill extending for five years, the provisions of the act granting htalf pay to certain widows, was taken up and finally After a scene or great uproar, the H ouse went into Committee of the Whole, for the purpose of taking up the Cumbherland Road bill. At this jitneture, however, a message was received from -the Senate, to the ef fect that it had adopted a joint resolution extending the se ssion for two hours. Thte Committee thereupon rose, when a motian was made to lay the resolution on the table. While the Clerk wvas calling the roll, however, the hour of itwelve arrived, whereon the Speaker adjourned sine die. hast-as the Speaker wvas leaving the Chair, Mr. Barnard tried to get the~ floor on some point of order. About a score of members shouted "Barnard, its too late ; but you have the floor f'or next session." This caused tremendous peals of laughter. *No legislative husiness of interest was transacted by the Senate. Abot an hour was, spent in E xecutive Session ; during which -iris said the nomination of Mr. Cushing was confirmed. The messengei* sent to Mexico has just arrived.

Mr. McCaine, on the first page of this day's paper, it being one of a number written by that Rev, gentle. mant, in a conaroversy between him and the Rev. Luther Lee, an A bolitionist, upon the subject of Slavery. Mr. McCaine, has expres sed a willingness to lay the whole controversy before the Southern people. could he be ens. bled to do so, by the friends of the South sub scribing for a sufficient number of the copies to pay for publishing. As Mr. McCaine ii willing to give his time and talent in favor o. our institions, we hope our citizens will not bt backward in throwing in: their mite towardi making public the true state of them. For tihe infoarmation of our corresponden' "Saluda,'' whlo appears to he afraid that there will be no candidates in the field, for a seat ir Congress, at the coming fall election, we have understood that our present worthy represen tative the Hon. A. Burt will be a candtidate, and that the gentleman whom he has named in his communication has, we believe, removed out of the Conigressional District, since the alter ation of the Judicial Circuits. [17 We have been requested to state, that the address of the Hon. .Anm~tman BURT, dur ing the recess of Congress. will be " Willing ton, Abbeville District, 8. C."

All commnnications mult be- handed in by 10 o'clock on Monday morning, otherwise it will be uncertain whethr they will appear on the next Wednesday. 9T We call the attention of the " Sheriff. Ordinary, Clerk of Court, Coinmissionerin Equi ty, Coroner, rc.-of Edgefield . District," to an advertisement in this day's paper, addressed to them, by the Editor of the Hamburg Journal, ling upon them to patronize his establishment with the advertisements which acciuo from the btsinessoftheir respective ofTces-offering to publish them all, at one-halfthe regular rates, which they have been in the habit of paying. Whether the editor,good soul, has made so much money at his rates that his coffers, are overflow ing, or his consc:ence has checked him for o ing that "which he ought not to have done." we are at a loss to conjecture; but.we are fuly satisfied that he is acting with a liberality not generally practised by poorpractical mechanics in their sane minds, towards the needy, and especially towards those engaged in the plea sant business of the law. By the way of variety, we also wish the SHERIFF, OnDINARY, CLERK OF CoURT, CoN' MissIoNER IN EQUITY, CORONER, LAWYERS, 51A GISTRTES, M ERcHaNTS, MEcHANICs, PLANTERS. and in fact all, great or small, to carefully.-or amine the advertisement of our humble self, directly under that of the editor of the Journal, and call at our establishment. and judge for themselves, whether our prices is not liberal, and low enough for any honest man to make a living at. We have served a reziular tinie to our business, and have long known what it was to earn our bread by the sweat of our brow, and hope that no individual has ever gone from) our office dissatisfied with the charges made agast him, for services rendered, our motto " be just and fear not," being always kept in view~. To those who have been our steady suppor -ters, as subscribers and advertisers we appeal, to know, whether we, who have obeyedl all orders punctually and faithfutlly, and at liberal honect living p-.ices, are to be thrown asid~e for as faithfully sticking to those prices: our con science does not tell us. that we have drone werong, therefore, we shuall never flinch, from our stated rates, let what will be the :.onse quence, reserving to ours'elf at all times the right of making contracts with Merchanms or other persons, as we maly deem best. The ad vertisements are now' before a liberal and en lighterned public, they have thieir choice, and as a practical mechanic we do not fear their deci sion. We ever shall be,-as heretofore, thankful for all favors in our line, large or small, and all or ders will be promptly attended to. even should they come from the editor of the Hlamburg Journal, but not at half price. In all case. where our patrons advertise largely we will make a :ery liberal discount. All Religious No tices inserted gratis. M Aezico.-The Washington Spectator of the -18th inst. says: " We understand a messenger reached the city this afternoon with despatches from Mexico. The rumor is prevalent that Mexico lhas acceded to the annexation of Texas: but, after the hostile demonstrations of otar ow n prominent politicians. tihich were known at Mexico. we think it altogether improbable." " Half Price,"-The Boston Democrat says. -" Tbat the nomination of Polk anid Dallas hat caused a great fall in the miarket price of the Whig electioneering stock.

That he then aspired, and now aspires to this high- distinetinctionu, is not mentioned as proof of any;lisqalinfcatieron f'r" the State.Senate, but as: e ence that he wil not exert his 'qualificatidns in our e Q te, if lie can achieve the higher object of bition.

" This eagerness to fortify a" point noaessailud, shows that there is some weakness in the works en that point. -According to-the adassions of "-Justice," Col..

These few min utes. however, afforded scope for much urgent s'olicitation to Col. P. for repeated'.refusals in' his pai t-and at length for his " reluctant con sent."
