Washington, July 21?The
Senate passed' a resolution extending
for five years to the Alabama
and Florida Railroad the
time for payment of du,tics on
railroad iron and relaying the
track.
In the House, a joint resolution
for. the admission of Tennessee
was taken up, debated and
amended. A new ^preamble was
substituted, declaring that Ten-1
nessee was seized by the enemies
of the Government iti 1861, but
now shows every disposition to
conform to the Constitution and
laws, and has adopted the pro
hibition of slavery amendment to |
the Constitution, and also that
proposed by the present Congress.
The preamble also announces
that the Legislative
authority alone is authorized to
restore States under similar circumstances.
The amended resolution
tfili be sent 'back to the
House for its concurrence.
The House adopted a concurrent
resolution, by five majority,
providing that when the officers
of the two Houses shall adjourn
their respective Ifoilses on the
day of to the 2d day
of October, and if on that day
there was no quorum in either
House, the presiding officers
shall adjourn both Houses on the
first Saturday in .December.

copy of his resignation as a
member of the House, to-day sent

The order of the House was then
executed, by Rouleau being
called before the bar, when the
Speaker reprimanded him. A
resolution had been passed that
he (Rousseau) be publicly reprimanded,
and the Speaker said
that nothing could add to thej
force of the resolution, and merely
said the gentleman was reprimanded
accordingly.

| Admission of Tennessee.
Washington, July 24.---The
President has signed the Joint
Resolution admitting TefltiesseQ,but
says that the preamble cpn,
sists of statements, some of which
are assumed. "While the resolution
is merely a declaration of
j opinion, it edtapriaes 110 legisla1
lion, nor does it confer any power
| which is binding upon the respective
Houses, the Executive
| or the State.
He further says that the right
of each House, under the Constitution,
to judge of the qualifitions
of its own members, is undoubted
; and- that his approval
or disamiroval of the resolution
could not in the slightest degree
increase or diminish the authority,
in this respect, conferred on
the two branches of Congress.But
earnestly desiring to remove
evcrv 'cause of further deluV,
whether real or imaginary, on the1
part of Congress, to the admission
of the loyal Senators and
Representatives from Tennessee
?notwithstanding the anomalous
character of the proceedings?he
affixes his signature to the resolution.
At the same time his
approval is hot to be constrited
as an acknowledgment that Congress
has the right to pass laws
preliminary to the admission of
Representatives from any of the
States. Nor is it to he considered
as committing him to all the
statements of the preamble, some
of which are without foundation.
Among them, he states that there
is reason to believe that the Tennessee
Legislature has not ratified
the late amendment passed
by Congress.
Part of the Message was. greeted
with derisive laughter by the
Radicals, arid with applause by
the Democrats.
The Cause of the European
War.
From an elaborate article in tho
I/omlon Globe, on the moral and political
relations' of tho continental beligorents,
we innko tho following compendious
ortract:
Tho plain fact is, that Prussia goes
to war* to force Austria out of Germany,
mi order that Prussia may reign in her
wtoad,'and that ItaHy goes to war with
Austria in order to liberate' :i province
first added to Austria seventy years ago
to suit the temporary exigencies of Gen.
Bonaparto, and restored to her in 1815
by tho Congress of' Vienna. Prussia
and I tally aru' now on tho offensive,
and Austria is fin the defnitsivn. and
the thing at btako is the existence of
t.he Austrian Empire as tho greatest
power in central Europe.
