NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. Congressional. Tclrraj hcd fur the Madison Banner ly the O'Reil'y Line. Washington, June 13. The Senate resumed the consideration of the California question. Mr. Webster poke in favor of each measure precutni, an J said lie wuuid be glad to vote fr beia eeparatoly or connected!. The debate wai continued at great length by Messrs. Benton, Foots, Seward, and Clay. IIr. Seward said if the Texas question was omitted fruiii this bill he would te for it. Mr. Benton wanted tto admission of California separately from the pending bill. He said Mr. Clay had maintained that California should be a separate quest ion. Mr. Clay expressed himself in favor of the admission of California, and that the speediest way to bnn it in was to combine it with other measures. Mr. Houston spoke in faror of the Texas title to the boundary line. Mr. Clay read a letter from Mr. Reed, of Independence, Mo., relating to the assertion made by Mr. Benton that California was not fit to be admitted. Mr. Clay did not vouch for the authenticity of the letter, and asked Mr. Benton to answer. Mr. Benton denied Mr. Clay's right to bring him thus before the Senate, and he should hold bun responsible as the author. Some very angry words passed between the two Senators and order having been restored the Sonate adjourned. Washington, June 14. Senate. A part of the morning eMim was taken up with the discussion of unimportant business, when the omnibus bill was taken up. The question being upon Mr. Clemens' motion designating one million of dollars as the sum to be paid Texas for the surrender of her claim to the disputed territory, it was put and lost yeas 8, nays 31'. The question then recurred upon a motion to strike out the entire section relative to the boundaries of Texas. Mr. King expressed it as his opinion that Texas was cutitlcd to the whole country east of the Rio fJrande, from its mouth to its source. That fact had been mude good by Conjress when Texas was annexed. Mr. Butler said that he would vote for the amend

ment, his views having changed in relation to the title of Texas, lie believed her title was good to all the territory claimed by her. The question wai further debated by Messrs. Rusk Foote, Hale, and Berrien. Hoiss. The reports of standing committees were received. Mr. McClernand reported a bill amendatory of an act to carry into effect the treaties between the Uni ted Stales and the Ottoman Porte, which was approved in Aujruet, 1913. It was passed. Mr. McCIernar-c also reported a bill giving indemnity for French spoliations prior to 1W0, which was referred to the committee of the whole on the state of the Union Mr. Bayly, from the committe of ways and means, reported a bill to defray the pxpenses of the Govern ment, and aI?o a bill to piipply the deficiencies in the appropriations for the judicial expenses of the Government for the year ending on the 30th of June, 1350. The Houe then went into committee of the whole on the state of the Union and took up the last bill reported by the committee on ways and means, which tails for an appropriation of fifty thousand dollars. The bill, after several ineffectual attempts to amend it, was finally passed, and the House adjourned. Washington, Juno 17. Senate. After the transaction of tho morning business, and tho consideration of sundry priva'e bill s. the omnibus bill was again taken up, the question being upon 2lr.

Indiana Gold Mines. We have delayed publishing notices of the "gold

diffings" of Brown county, as Dr. Brown, the brother of the editor of this paper, who was in Indianapolis a short time since, and was then on his route to that region of country, promised to give the result of his investigations in a letter to the Governor of the State. This he has done, and his letter is published in the last number of the Crawfordsville Review. The editor of that paper says, that Dr. Brown is one of the best geologists and chemists in the State, and his observations and conclusions may therefore be set down as pretty nearly correct. The following is his letter: <To His Excellency Joseph A Wright. Governor of Indiana:> SIR:—Permit me to communicate to you, and through you to the public, a few observation, the result of a recent excursion to the "Indiana gold region." The extent of country in which gold has actually been. dicovered in Indiana is about 35 miles long, with an average width of about 10 miles. Almost all the small streams, forming the head of Salt Creek and Bean Blossom in Brown couuny, are now bring worked. Passing from this section in a north-westerly direction, a few points on streams tributaly to Indian Creek ate worthy of attention. Continuing the line in the tine direction to Burnet's Creek, on the west side of While River, in Morgan county, gold has been washed on several of the small branches of this stream nearly to its source. The face of the country is broken with abrupt hills and deep ravines, presenting, indeed, but little level surface. The summits of the hills seldom exceed 100 feet above the level of the stream; though in some instances they form bold and lofty ridges, rising to an elevation of perhaps more than 300 feet. The soil is a light sandy diluvium, covered with a heavy forest of sugar tree, poplar, oak. ash, &c. On the ridges, however, where they attain their highest elevation, the chesnut oak, black hickory, and whortleberry make their appearance. The country is not sterile; the great obstacle to agriculture being its uneven surface and not the poverty of the soil. Geologically, this region is underlayed by a heavy subsratum of argillacious sand-stone, in many places running into the light blue clay slate, or shale, resembling nearly the argillite of Kirwin. Ths forms the bed of the streams, frequently rising to the height of 40 or 50 feet in the hills, presenting bold, precipitous bluffs. Overlaying this sandstone is a heavy diviluvial [sic], or drift, consisting of silicious sand, water-worn pebbles, and clay, all strongly tinged with iron. The gravel is from the primitive formations, except occasional geodes of quartz; containing, frequently, specimens of chrystals of that mineral, very beautiful. This diluvium is the source of all the gold found in that region, and it is probably mixed uniformly with this immense deposite [sic], and it is only where the wash from the hills favors the descent of it into the streams that washing for gold can be followed with any probable prospect of success. I picked up a few mall detatched [sic] specimens of the gold bearing quartz on Salt Creek and on Bean Blossom; but they are very rare, and no where found in strata. The quartz pebble, quite common thetr, is evidently a re-forma-tion from the material furnished by the decomposition of this lock. The gold is found in small particles of almost every conceivable shape, generally, however, assuming the appearance of small scales. The largest particles which I saw did not exceed the size of a grain of wheat; while many of them were too small to be visible to the naked eye. To procure the gold, the sand and gravel deposited in the stream is washed in a pan or in "Burke's Rocker." This washing is continued until nothing remains but a heavy black sand, mixed with particles of gold, which now become visible on close inspection. From this sand the gold is separated by amalgamation with mercury. From the best data within my reach I estimated the number of persons employed in the "diggings" at between 2 and 300. I found it very difficult to ascertain with any degree of certainty, the net profits per day. From all that I could learn, I suppose that an experienced hand would wash from two to three dollars per day; while one wholly unacquainted with the business will hardly pay board. To correct some popular errors on the subject, I will state that there is no such thing here as "mines of gold," or local "veins of the dust." It is only profitably found in the beds of streams, mixed with the washed sand and gravel from the hills. Where the largest area of surface is washed into a stream, where that surface has been ploughed and thus facilitates the washing of the surface, and where the descent into the stream is steep and direct, without much bottom land intervening, there the washing will be most profitable, other things being equal. Much "locking for gold" has been done in different places in Indiana of late; but gold cannot be detected by "looking merely, even in the richest streams in Brown or Morgan. To find it the sand must be washed as I have described. I have already alluded to the known extent of the deposite [sic] in Indiana; to prevent mistake and fruitless search elsewhere, I will remark that the region above described is a section of what Mr. Owen in his report calls the sub-car-boniferous series. The formation enters the State of Indiana at the falls of the Ohio, and traverses the State in a lengthened curve, bearing a northerly direction, inclining gradually toward the west until it is lost on the Wabash be- tween Covington and Attica. It forms the north-eastern border of the great Coal Fields of Indian. Its line is marked by rapids in all the principal streams, where it crosses them, and by the knobby character of the face of the country, as well as by the presence of the underlaying argillacious sand-stone. Gold <may> be found in the whole length of this geological range, but it would be fruitless labor to search for it be- yond. From certain geological reasons not necessary now to be named, I think it very probable that gold t<will> be discovered in many localities in this formation, but no where in veiy large amounts—perhaps not in sufficient quantities to make it an object of much interest. Respectfully, yours, etc., R. T. BROWN. CRAWFORDSVILLE, June 8th, 1S50. ===== The Rail Road. We published last week an article from the Chicago Daily Journal, containing important news as to the organization of the Railroad Company, to construct the Road from the point in Elkhart Co., at which the Southern Michigan Railroad strikes our State line, to Chicago. Since then we have learned the following additional particulars. may feel certain that the work will be completed, if we are not faithless to ourselves. The Charter of the Company authorizes the construction of a railway from Michigan City to LaPorte and as mush [sic] <farther Eastward> as the Company see fit to extend the same, and they have voted that they "see fit" to extend, and will extend the same eastword of LaPorte to a union with the Southern Rail Road. Under a lease from the Commissioners of the Western Division of the Buffalo and Mississipp Rail Road Company the same parties will build an extension of the road from Michigan City to the Illinois lien: and 21 miles of that part West of the city have <already been let> by them for the grading, grubbing and clearing to Mr. Martin, an experienced contractor, who is to have completed ready for the superstructure and the rail by the 1st of December next. From the Illinois line to Chicago the arrangements are in progress, to be perfected under the late general law of Illinois.—<South Bend Register>. ----- IMPORTANT FROM SANTA FE.—< A Speck of Civil War>.—Colonel Washington, the military Governor of Santa Fe, brings intelligence of a collision, ending in a riot, which required the interference of the military, between the people of the territory and the Texans, growing out of the claim of the State of Texas to jurisdiction, and the attempt to enforce it. The collision was an outbreak of no great importance in itself—a mere ferment at a political meeting, but it would nave been of infinite moment if it had led to bloodshed, as it threatened. It shows, moreover, the strong repugnance of the people of the territory to the assumption of Texas, a feeling which it will, in their present temper, be difficult to overcome, so long as the Texans threaten them with the introduction of the slave institution, which they have repudiated. The United States' troops maintained order, but it would have been better policy on te part of the government at Washington, instead of allowing Texas to persevere in her attempt to enforce jurisdiction, to have maintained the military authority until the dispute between the State and territory had been settled by Congress. The adverse parties would have been kept from collision, and when action was had by either, it would have been with such authority on its side as the other would have respected. ----- Wheat is said to cheaper "n England this season than it has been before for 150 years.
