The "lightning" Charley Bowen is the mail packet to-day for Cairo and intermediate points. She leaves about 2 o'clock. The Bowen deserves a full load and we trust she will receive it. ......The Mattie Cook is very unfortunate. She had just repaired her late injuries to her cylinder-head and piston-rod, and started out last evening, and got three miles up Green river, when she again had the same cylinder-head bursted and pistonrid broke, and a lot of screws wrenched off. She immediately put back to repair, and is now at the landing. If she gets her repairs completed she will start this evening; if not, she will delay her departure till Thursday evening. ......The Autocrat arrived here on. Saturday evening. She spent the Sabbath at this port without doing much busines, but commenced receiving freight about 12 o'clock Sunday night and left yesterday morningwith her guards in the water. ......We are indebted to Mr. Harry McDougal, clerk of the B. J. Adams, for late New Orleans papers and a memoranda of the trip. ......We presume the Bracelet will be down this evening from Louisville and return. The Bracelet is a substantial packet. ......The Eugene has been chartered by Capt. Ballard to take the place of the Bracelet. We presume the officers and crew of the Bracelet will be transferred to the Eugene. ......Quite a row was kicked up on the Musselman on Sunday, between an employee on the boat named Stewart, and a man who desired a situation named Alford. Both parties being armed with "brass knucks" did considerable damage to each other, but were finally separated by the interference of a third party. ......The Fanny Bullitt will be down to-day, no doubt, and will be prepared to receive freight for New Orleans. We trust sue may obtain a complete load. ......The Fanny Bullitt passed up without leaving our bundle of late New Orleans papers, which her clerks kindly provided for the Journal office. It was an oversight, but it was remedied by leaving the papers and a copy of the memoranda at Troy, whence it was forwarded by the kindness of N. Marks & Co., to the care of the accommodating "George" at Hall's wharfboat. Thanks all around. MEMORANDA OF THE FANNY BULLITT.— Steamer Fanny Bullitt left New Orleans Jan. 26th.

Gaz>. ......We glean the following items from the Cincinnati Gazette of the 2d inst.: The new sidewheel steamer Eugene, will leave here next Wednesday to enter the Louisville and Henderson trade, and will take the Big Grey Eagle's day. Negotiations are pending between Capt. Archer of Louisville, and the owners ot the Cambridge, for the purchase ot that boat for the Louisville and Memphis trade. Notice has been received here from the Superintendent of the Nashville & Chattanooga Railroad, that owing to the accumulation of freight at Nashville, they can receive no more freight at present. The above has greatly retarded shipments to Nashville via river, during the past day or two, but it is expected to be for a short time only. There is at this port fully 1,000 tons freight ready for shipment to Nashville. The Steamboat Captain's Association, have donated two hundred dollars during the past week, for the benefit of the poor. ———<>——— ——>Thanks to Mr. Am.

NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. BY THE E. & W. LINE. Exclusively for the Journal. ======= CONGRESSIONAL. Washington, D. C, February 4, 1861. Senate. Mr. Crittenden presented several memorials from citizens of various states in favor of the Crittenden resolutions. Mr. Wilson offered a resolution of inquiry asking the President to communicate to the Senate whether any arsenals, forts, arms, or munitions of war, belonging to the United States have been seized by any persons in the state of Louisana, and especially w hether the mint of the United States at New Orleans had been taken possession of unlawfully by any persons, and if any money of the U. S., and ho w much, unlawfully approriated by any persons and by whom. Laid overMr. Chandler presented a petition of citizens of Michigan remonstrating against any change irr the constitution. Mr. Ligler presented petitions iu favor of the Crittenden resolutions.

Mr. Foster presented a memorial from citizens of Connecticut asking for the passage of the Dorder State resolutions. Mr. Fesscuden presented a petition in favor of restoring peace to the country and preserving the bond of our fathers. Mr. Slide!! sent to be read by the clerk the ordinance of secession passed by Louis iana, tic sai'l me document just reau places on ollicial record that Louisiana ceases to b a component part of the United States, and terminated the connection of himself and colleague with this body. The occasion calls for some words in parting from those we leave, some of whom we hope to meet again in the noble task of constituting a new confederacy ; a new confederacy would not attempt to improve the constitution of the United States. It would recognize the obligations of all existing treaties, those respecting the African slave trade included. It will be willing to assume a just proportion of the public debt and account for all the property of the United States which they were compelled to take for self-defense. They would recognize the right of the inhabitants of the Valley of the Mississippi, to the free navigation of the stream. He referred to the many kindnesses received in the Senate chamber and bade the Senate farewell. Mr. Benjamin argued against the assertion that Louisiana could cot go out of the Union because she was bought as the property of the United States. Louisiana was acquired under a treaty which guarantees to the citizens ot a territory protection to property. He maintained that she ad special reasons for going oat because the treaty stipulations under which she was acquired had not been carried out. He concluded with a tribute to the friends of the South in the northern state3 and bid the Senate farewell. , The President's message came up. Mr. Ciingoi'in commended its tone. He would do most anything to save the coun-trj-. He would vote for the Crittenden proposition and oflier3, in order to accomplish peace aud safety, but a movement for peace must come from the Republican side of the House. Mr. Hale protested against the assertion that tho North were making war. On the contrary, their position was such as to subject thtru to charges of cowardice. The Senator said there was force North favorable to his section- If war comes, the first thino; we shall do will be to take care of Northern traitors. Mr. Lane wanted to know who - he called traitors. Mr. Hale, "exactly those men who fight against their own state." Lane. " They are fighting for their constitutional rights as states. I'll allow no man to call them traitors." Hale wanted to define no man's position, but repeated, that if forced into war, the North would take care of traitors at home. The message was postponed till tomorrow. The bill to provide for the government f.jr Idaho came up and Gwiu's amendment changing the boundary was adopted. On motion of Wilson tho name was altered to Colorado. The bill then passed. Pearce, from the committee on finance, reported a loan bill which was made the special order for to-morrow. lligler oll'ered a resolution to admit the commissioner? of the states to the floor of the Senate. Laid over. Senate adjourned. Hopsc Mr. McClcrnand expressed surprise that any one should object to a mere resolution of inquiry. It made no allegations. Mr. liranch asked leave to introduce a resolution allow ing the commissioners from the states admission to the floor of the House. Mr. Kutikle proposed to amend that the use of the House or other suitable ap?.ri-. ment be tendered them for their meeting. Mr. Lovojoy and others objected. Mr. Cochrane gave notice that he would at an early hour call up the bill reported by him, from the committee of five to provide for the collection of duties on imports. A motiou for night sessions this week was rejected. Mr. Wilson presented a petition from Indiana for the adoption of the Crittenden compromise. He said he could not vote for it. Mr. Uriggs presented a memorial of 72 citizens of Orange county, New York, in favor of the border slate compromise. The House went into committee on the Senate's amendment to the Deficiency bill. Mr. Morse advocated the Chiriqui appropriation amendraeut. Stevens of Pa. opposed it. The Chiriqui amendment was rejected. The amendment to appropriate S135,000 for Wendell's establishment for a public printing oflioe was debated and adopted. The committee rose and the House resolved to have night sessions for debate the remainder of the week. House adjourned. iNDnrBNOENCE, Feb. 4. The New Mexican mail from Pawnee Fork arrived to-day. The snow on the plaius is from two to four feet deep. The mail was compelled to travel part of the way on pack mules. They were three days making six mile. Nothing had been heard at Pawnee Fork of the murder of Major's men in the Rattoon mountains, and the presumption is that if it was so they would have heard of it, as they are in weekly communication with Fort Wise. Quite a number of candidates are out iu this county for the State Convention. No doubt but those who are for the Union as it is will be elected. Washington, Feb. 1th.

A gentleman from the interior of NewYork, owner of much property in Wash

ington, tendered it to Gen. Scott for milita ry purposes, if desired. Special Washington dispatches say that the Virginia commissioners have resolved to declare the determination of the South to accept no settlement of the territorial question which is not applicable to all further acquisitions.

Senate, Feb. 1. Petitions were presented containing the proceedings of a Union meeting held in Bartholomew county ; asking for a change in relation to the law relative to justices of the peace so as to leave it optional where suit may be brought ; in reference to damages sustained by stock being killed on railroads, and oa some-other unimportant subjects. Committees reported in favor of a bill providing for bringing civil actions against persons in townships where they reside, only, and in cases where there is no settled residence the place where the defendant may be found, together with a bill amending several sections of the act defining the powers and duties of justices of the peace ; favoring the passage of a bill amending the free banking law so as to require the deposit of Indiana stocks to the exclusion of other State stocks,as a basis of circulation. A long discussion ensued on the free bank bill report, which ended in ordering the bill to be printed for future consideration. The bill amends the bank law in several particulars, and is designed to bring home a portion of the State's indebtedness, to throw , additional restrictions around the Auditor and Treasurer of State, to give a higher character to our free banking system, and make the bill holder perfectly safe. Resolutions were introduced and referred, looking to the inspection of the books and papers in thu State ofliees; for the purpose

. - - - - I of ascertaining tBd amount and condition of I the State debt; for the examination of the

State Librarian's accounts, and ; for Inqui; ing into the expediency tof legislating so as to retain for 'expenditure ' in the countks where it is collected, the tax paid for the support of common .schools. ; : ' A concurrent resolution,. .directing tie Commissioners of the Northern State Prison to give the architect employed to examine tho location, contracts, specifications, plans, &c, of that Institution, free access to all the papers and documents in their - possession, elicited a lengthy discussion. ' It was contended that the resolution reflected on the integrity of the commissioners and officers of the Prison, and that the architect should not be empowered to examine what might be private property. On the other band it was urged that if there was nothing "wrong in the affairs connected w.itb th prison, the resolutions would do no harm and offended no one. They had "been 'offered on infor mation received from the architect that he had been denied access to papers that were essential to the investigation be was employed to make. ' The resolutions were passed by nearly a strictly f party vote the Repub licans voting in the affirmative, and most of the Democrats in the negative. Tbe Senate changed its hours of meeting and adjourning, eo as to have but one ses sion a day, thus enabling the committees to do the work cut out tor them. It also changed its order of business, so as to throw the resolutions, the most trifling and unimportant part of the business, at the last end of tho calendar. Tnis is a good regn lation to save time and expedite work. HorsE. Reports from commiUees , were made against the constitutional power of the General Assembly to require a residence of sixty days in the county and of thirty days in the township by voters, to protect the ballot-box against frauds ; report concurred in. A glorious Constitution, truly! Bill reported to pnnisb the stealing of timber ; against making juries returnable on the first day of the term instead of the third day ; against allowing an appropriation from the swamp land funds of Washington and Jackson counties for payment of the removal of a dam on the Muscatatak, which was laid over for further consideration. ; , Mr. McLean, a member of the minority of the committee of thirteen, filed bis dissent to the report of that minoritj'. The greatest part of the morning and all the afternoon was taken up in a very useless discussion of party questions, which conld have no other effect than to waste precious hours of a too short session, and create unfriendly feeling among the members.
