CONGRESS. In the Senate, on the 26th ult. Mr. Clay's resolution to request the president to appoint a day of Fasting, Humiliation, and prayer, in ref trence to the prevailing cholera, was adopted - yeas 30, n3ys 13. On the 29th the resolution was also passed by the House. la the house, on the 23th, a resolution was
submitted by Col. II. M. Johnson, and adopted, by a vote of 103 to 49, as follows: Resolved, That the committee of Accounts be instructed to order to be paid out of the contingent fund of this house to the members and de'egates thereof, the amount of their pei diem allowance and Mileage, which J. O. Dunn, late Srgeant-at arms, received on checks drawn in their behalf, and which he has failed to pay oTer to them, upon the certificate of the members or delegates. On the passage of the resolution, the Washington correspondent of the United States Gazette remarks: Nothing which has occurred during the pre gent session, is likely to produce so strong a sen sation abroad among the people, as the resolu tion passed to day, by a large majority of the house of representative, to refund to themselves the amount of money of which they had been de frauded by Mr. J. O Dunn, late Sei'gt-at arm. Mr. Root in vain iranlred gentleman to consid

Urged that the passage of the resolution would fce sav ng to all public officers of the House, "plunder what you can, and we make good the amount." It was certainly an indecorous act tn the part of those who were losers by Dunn, to vote to pay themselves out of the public mosey. Mr. Bates, of Mass., while the clerk of
