Washington, January 19 ?In the Senate, Aloorn presented resolutions of the State Grange Patrons of Hus? bandry of that State, in favor of mak? ing Pasoagoula a port of entry and for the improvement of that harbor; re? ferred to the Committee on Com? merce. The legislative, judicial and executive appropriation bill was con? sidered and the Senate, by a vote of 29 to 21, refused to concur iu the amendment of oommittee, providing for the organization of a bureau of commerce aud statistics. The present bureau of statistics, however, was con? tinued and $'20,000 appropriated to carry it ou. Wright, from the Judi? ciary Committee, reported, with amendments, a House bill for the re? lief of owners and purchasers of lauds sold for direct taxes in tbe insurrec? tionary States, and for other pur? poses. In the House, explanations and de? nials by members of newspaper re? ports, connecting their names with tho Paoifio Mail subsidy, occupied a good deal of to-day's session. First came Storm, of Pennsylvania, who, although he had steadily voted und spoken against the subsidy, was alluded to as the reoipient of one of those 81,000 bills which were said to have been floating around at that time. Then followed Chittenden, of New York, who had been oonfouoded by some newspapers with a person of the same patronymio, to whom Abert had paid several thonsand dollars. Then fol? lowed Sypher, of Louisiana, who de? fended his vote for tbe subsidy, but denied indignantly that he bad been influenced by oorropt motives Then telegrams were read from Daniel W. Voorhees, of Indiana, and Boyd Win be summoned as witnesses. Thou a Special committee was apbdhated to in quire whether the- privileges of tho House have been violated io tbe arrest and detection of Wbitelawjfteed, edi? tor of the New York Irihune, at the suit of Alexander Shepherd, while in this city, as a witness before the Com? mittee of Ways and Meaus. Theo an? other recusant wituess in the Pacific Mail investigation, Chaa A. Wetmore, the Washington correspondent of the Alia California, was brought before tbe H.onse for refusing to atate tbe name of a person who had mentioned something to him derogatory to the character of Beck, of Keutucky. These varions incidents of tbe Pacific Mail iovestigatioo, with a couple of hours given to the Indian Appropriation Bill, filled up the whole of to-day's session. The Senators and ttepreBeniaiives from the States of Arkausas, Louisi? ana and Mississippi, met last night, at tbe room of Collector Casey, to con suit concerning the levees. Tbe meet? ing resulted in the appointment of a committee, composed vf Messrs. Al? oorn, McKeu, Sheldon, Morey, Sny der and Hodges, to call npou the Pro sideot and ask bis support in procur? ing an appropriation, in accordance with the recommendation of the Com? mission of Eogineers. The commit? tee a died upon the President, ttns morning, aud had a somewhat lengthy interview. Senator Alcorn presented tho subject by describing theeoudiiibu of the districts liable to overflow, and the utter inability of the people to protect themselves by repairing the broken levees nrd by showing the value of this a>luvial section to the nation at large. Tbe President said be bud always desirad to aid iu pro? moting the happiness aud prosperity of all the people of the South; but at times he felt that tbe acta of violence, so constantly occurring, would pre? clude any aid from the General Go verument. Mr. Sheldon suggested that it was impassible for the people of the State of Louisiana to repair the levees broken by the flood of last year; that tbe section of country aloug the river had always been peaceable; that tbe colored people largely predomi? nated, and that the people who were disposed to commit acts of violence constituted a very small minority, and that the whole should not be held to be responsible aud made to sutler for the acts of a small portiou. He said, further, that the impoverished condi? tion of the people was one cau*o of bad feeling and violent action; that if the vigorous uhc of power was re? quired to preserve ord? r aud protect life, to do acts of beneficence would have a mollifying effect. 'The Presi? dent said his remarks were cot in? tended bo much to iudioate bis own feelings as to'suggest what the com? mittee might have to meet in the feel? ings of Congress Ho had not seen the report, but wheu it came, be would consider the subjeot aud decide what he would do. After remarks from other gentlemen and the President, the committee took their departure, feeling that the President would recommend favorable action ou the part of Congress.

Sheridan bad completely bridged tbe ?bort, distance which separates the horrible from tbe ridiculous. We were uot prepared for tbe deeper pathos of his despatch of Wednesday to the War Department, iu whiub. after the fashion ot ull gullaut soldiers and brave meu from the beginning of time, be proclaim* his, own invincible valor. 'T urn not afraid!" Imagine Marlboroogh, or Welhngtou, or Na? poleon, or Stonewall Jackson, or Lee, in the face of an enemy, real or ima? ginary, telegraphing to the tear that "fAfy were not afraid." Therein souie thing truly Homeric iu tbe candor with which the Lienteuau t-Geuerel thus acquaints the world with the state of "bi.i mighty dinphrsgm,'" albeit the hero that be most resembles be Thersites rather than Ajax. Who can refrain from admiration at tbe spectacle of Gen. Sheridau straddling bis sword iu the streets of New Or? leans aud crying aloud to tbe Secre? tary at Washington. "Who's afraid?! Not I." Evidently Sheridau is a man to falsify the historic saying of the Emperor Charles V, ami to snuff u candle with his fingers without blench? ing at the ordeal. He might even be trusted to walk through a church yard at midnight alone, aud uot run for fear of "spooks." He must undoubt? edly be a brave man?for have we uot bis own word for it? Wise, too, us well as brave. He certifies to bis owu [courage, aud the President and his Cabinet vouch for bia "witfdjm." Who will now vouch for the Ptesideut aud Cabinet??Baltimore Sun. Want a Resebvation.?A petition was presented in the House of Repre? sentatives at Washington, on Friday, by Harbour Lewis, of Tennessee. It I I has 300 signal tires of colored people j in different portions of the South, who are desirous to have some portion of the South or South-western Territory set opart for their exclusive use, with similar protection by the Unit- d States Government to that now given by law to tbe Cherokee, Cliootaw and Scini nole Indians. Tun petitioners further! state that they are desirous of having a fair ohance iu the great race of life, and are satisfied that neither them? selves nor children can have it so long as they are in the midst of tbe domi? nant race of people who are far their superiors iu point of education aud many other advantages. Signs from the North are quite en? couraging. On tho Louisiana ques? tion, the toue of public feeling is cheering. We begin to feel the return of better judgments, as well as better feelings. They are much needed for the saiety aud welfare of the nation. Tbe time for the winding up of tbe world, appointed by the Millerites, bus1 been again postponed. The Miilerttes ought to combine with the Constitu? tion, aud by putting their scheme with its glittering prize, the two might be ubio to gut tbe thing off. Senator W. IJ.

Prof. Wilson, of Baltimore, Md., says of this Quano: "By a critical examination ot the analysis of the various cargoes you have imported, a striking feature ia the great regularity in the per centago of the important constituents essential tor the production of all crops." Fror. F. A. Qentb.of Philadelphia, Penn., says: "xhs Ouano is evfdently of animal origin, and the minute bones whioh were discovered in tbe same, indioate that it is ihe rcnult of the decay of bats, mice, Ac. The quantity of orgauio matter which is still present is about 12 per cent., and this yields about 2J per cent, of ammonia. A Iportien of the nitrogou is present aa nitric I acid, of which about 3 peroent. were found. All the nitrogen present would bo equiva? lent to about 3} per cent, of ammonia. The phosphoric acid in the Quano averaged about 12} per cent., equal to 27.3 par cent, of Bone i'hour hate. A considerable quan? tity ot the phosphoric acid, however, is present as no-called neutral Phosphate of Lime, whioh, being slightly soluble in water, renders the Guano as quick in its action as a corresponding quantity of Su? perphosphates wonld do. The small per oentage of potash which was found in analysis adds to its value. From all the experiments which I havo made of the Guauahani Qnano no doubt can exist that it is a valuable manure." Fror. U. 0. White, or the Georgia Btato Agricultural Society, bays: "Aa shown by j the analysis, this Quano contains, in good proportion, all the elemeats which are .generally considered ao of value lor plant ' food, and the forms and combinations in wbich they are present are auch aa to ren? der them available to and anHiruilcblo by tho plant. I shonld Judge that the proper use of this article for purposes of fertiliza? tion would be attended with great prollt./; I Prot. Charles U. Hhepard, Jr., in a repent [analysis of this Gnano, says: "This Quano iof animal origin) would appear from'its physical and ohemioal properties to an? swer every reasonable expectation of a commercial manure.
