The Pa? cific Railroad Committee ? reported the Senate bill for a Northern Pacific Rail? road, without amendmont; its considera? tion is now progressing. In the Senate, the bill giving Wilberforce College (oolored) ?25,000 from the Freedmen's Bureau fund, passed. The conference report on the onforoement of the fifteenth amendment was resumed, and will pro? bably bo talked over a day or two, but its ultimate passage is considered certain. In tho House, the bill to rovivo navi? gation and commerce was taken up, and, after discussion, tho substitute agreed on by the committee was offered by the chairman. The Northern Pacific Rail? road bill wus reported back without amendment.

To day's Tribune says: Gov. Bnllook reads somewhat too literally.

We are aware, though ho does not seem to think it, that bis term ns Governor of Georgia will not expire until 1872, no mntter what Congress may do with tho Bingham amendment to thc Georgia bill; but we also know, and so does he, that if that measure is adopted and a new Legisla? ture is elected this coming fall, Gov. Bullock's official existence, as wo inti? mated, will speedily terminate; and if there is any basis of truth in the revela? tions of fraud and attempts at bribery contained in tho report of tho investigat? ing committee, will Gov. Bullock have just reason to complain of his fate, or to charge, as he does in tho letter wc have received, that we don't tote fair. Internal revenue receipts to-day, ?700, C00.

Two revenue agents will be sent out in tho Lincoln to take charge of the islands. Fincastle, Ya., since the great fire, presents a saddoning aspect. For squares nothing is to be seen but blackened ruins, houseless chimneys and smoulder? ing walls. The court houso stands alone in the centre of the town. All around it lies the debris of fire. The Vicksburg Herald suggests that ns the cnpitol at Jackson is considered un? safe, the Mississippi Legislature should adjourn to the penitentiary.
