SENATE.

YESTERDAY AFTERNOON SE8SION. WASHINGTON,DAC. 20. The chair laid before tbe Senate communication from tho Secretary of the Interior in answer to a resolution of the 18 b,transmitting various papers connected with the investigation into the affairs ef the Osage Indian agency ordered to be printed and lie on the table.

Mr. Bayard presented the credentials of Robert H. Marr,signed by McEnery as Governor of Louisiana, appointing hltn United States Senator from Louisiana to fill the vacancy, caused by the resignation of Wm. L. McMilau laid upon the table.

Mr. Edmunds said he desired to state before offering tho resolution which he proposed, that in regard to the resolution offered by him last Friday touching the President of the Senate, there had been some discussion, and upon further confex-ence with the Senators, he thought there shoald be no question of doubt as to who is President of the Senate between this date and the day of the meeting of Congress after the holiday recess. Ho therefore ottered the following:

Resolved,that Thomas M. Ferry,Senator from the Stato of Miehican, be President of the Senate until January 7, 1870, and until a fresh appointment shall bo made.

The chair [Anthony] announced that the question was upon the passage of the reso'ution.

Mr. Saulsbury said he did not intend to enter any objection to the resolution but it seemed to him that it involved questions already before the Committee on Privileges and Elections. The resolution assumed that tho Senate had not a President, and he merely wished to call the attention of the Senator from Vermont to that fact.

Mr. Edmunds said he had drawn the resolution so as not to assume that rootTbe resolution did not declare whether or not Ferry was President. It merely declared he should be. If Ferry is not President of the Senate then he will be until the time named by the passage of this resolution.

Mr, Bayard offered a substitute declaring Mr. A. G. Thurman be President of the Senate, until January 7tb, 1870, or until further appointment shall be made, and upon this demanded the yeas and nays. The substitute was rejected, yeas 21, nays 24 a strict party vote. Allison, Paddock, Wadleigh, Cragin and Cameron, of Pa., who would have voted against the substitute, were paired with Merriman, Ransom, Kelly, Norwood and Stevenson, who wouid have voted for it.

The original resolution submitted bv Mr. Edmunds was then adopted. Mr. Ferry then took the chair and said, "Senators, I desire to thank you for your further courtesy and confidence."

Mr. Morton said he desired to state that by voting for the rosolution, he had not committed himself to any opinion, but voted for it merely as a matter of precaution.

Mr, Morrill submitted a resolution tt at the Committee on Commarce be instructed to inquire into the expedience of reporting by| bill or otherwise some measure to increase the efficiency of the service of steamboat inspectors. He said if the accounts in the newspaper of the loss of life on the Prcific coast were true, something should be done to improve the service. Tbe resolution was agreed to,

The Chair laid before the Senate the unfinished business, being the resolu tion of Mr. Moulton to authorize the appointment of a spccial committee to inquire into the circumstances attending tbe Mississippi election.

Mr. Eaton'said he would beg tajiave further discusion of the resolution go over until after the holidays.

Mr. Morton said he had been advised that there would bo further debate upot it. He would be glad to have it disposed of to-day, but as a number of Senators were absent he would not press it to a vote as he was1 not satisfied that a quorum would be present later in the day he therefore' made no objection to the Resolution going over.

Hitchcock iutroducod a bill to transfer tbe Indian bureau from tbe Interior Department to the War Department. Referred." "1?

Davis introduced a bill appropriaating f150,000'to continue the improvement of thd Monongahela river in the states of West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Referred.

approved by the Navy Department, and tho Government is to have the1 right to purchase or employ them up-1 on the appraisement of a disinterested commission. The bill also provides for ihe. payment of bounties on vessels hereafter launched, as follows: Six dollars per ton for sailing vesaels of 400 tons and upward, employed in thfr foreign trade and between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the united States, and $4 per ton for sailing vessels oi not less than 200 tons burden, authorized to engage not more than 3 months per yeai in the coasting trade provider*, that if vessels of the two last namea descriptions are afterwards enrolled for the coasting trade, the bounties shall be refunded to the Government, less ten per cent, per year. A bounty of four dollars per ton, for a period of five years, is provided for vessels employed in cod or mackerel fisheries of not less than fonr months each year. All vessels employed in foreign trade or fisheries, may purchase supplies on board without the payment of duties. The bill finally provides that vessels hereafter built by the navy department for opening service, shall not exceed 1,000 tons each.

Anthony, from the Committee on printing, reported back a resolution to print extra copies of the President's message, and moved that its further consideration be indefinitely postponed So ordered. In makiug this report, Anthony said it had been customary to print extra copies heretofore, but the message had already been sent by telegraph and published all'6ver the country, and he saw no use to print extra cop5.ns now.

McDonald gave notice that he would at the proper time oifer resolutions, and move for their adoption as substitutes for those recently submitted by his colleague, Morton, in regard to National and State rights.

Mr. Morton—Introduce them now and lot them be printed, Mr. McDonald—I desire to introduce them hereafter.

Mr. Hitchcock presented a memorial of the members of the bar of the State of Nebraska, praying for the passage of a law authorizing the holding of one or moro terms per year of United States and distiict courts at Lincoln, in that State. Referred.

Mr. Dennis introduced a bill for the settlement of claims of officers of the Revolutionary war. It provides that the officers of.the revolution, who were entitled to half pay for life under the resolutions passed in Congress October 3d and 21, 1780, January 7th and May 8th, and December 31, 17S1, and March 8,1875, shall be entitled to receive the same, although such officer may have received in lieu thereof by certificates Or otherwise tbe commutation of full pay for five years under the resolution of March 2, 1871. The bill also provides the benefit of the resolution of August 24, 1870, shall be extended to the widows and lineal decendents of all officers em braced therein, who died in the service at any period during the w.ir of the revolution. It also authorizes accounting officers of the Treasury to adj udicate all such claims, and provides that the Secretary of tho Treasuary mav, in his discretion issue stock of tho United States for such claims, such stock to be redeemed twenty years from date, and boars interest at the rate of five per cent, per annum. It a'so pltdg a the faith of the Unitad States for tae payment of interest and the redemption. After executive seesion the Senate adjourned until Wednesday, January 5,1870.
