CoNoncss. In the senate, on Saturday the 11th, mr. Lion ottered a resolution calliiig for information on the subject of depredation committed on an individual by the Mexicans On motion of mr. Ew'mg of Ohio, tbe senate took up the bill to change the mode of conducting the sales of public lands, and ll was postponed till Wednesday, and made the special order for that day. Mr. Crittenden moved to reconsider the vote by which the bill ii. addition to ;ni act lor the relief ol ?ick and disiblcd sc;iuicn had been ordered to be engrossed. Mr. Crittenden
stated his object t. be lo strike out the words "rafts, flats,'" so as lo exempt them from the tax of twenty cents per moniii for each person employ cd it: navigating hi, h em ft. Alter some olervalions ioimmr. Davis and mr. Porter, the motion to reconsider was agreed, to. Mr. Crillendeu explained ilia he desired to amend ihe bill in the manner he had indicated. He ished the navigators ol ihe Hat boats and rafts to have the benefit of the hospital fund; but he thought inis smaU charily might be allowed them wiiboui imposing anV. tax. It was melancholy lo see the d cay ofc 'his mode of navigation. Time was-w hen'ibcllat boats moved in stately gi aswicux down t bo-

replied that the whole proceeds furnished by the wet towards the fund last year, was Sl.-

some negligence existed. There were facts

How muc h farther Ibis intelligence had exten

Mr. Hendricks de.-ired the adoption ol the proviso, nnd did not feel disposed to vote for the bill unless something of Ihe kind should be inserted. Mr. Linn wished to offer an amendment ns Si on as if should be in order. The pr.-.viso was then agreed to. Mr. Linn then moved his amendment, providing an apr ropr:ation for the erection of hospital.ntsuchpo'mts in the west ns the secretary ofthe tuasuiy may indicate. Mr. Davis replied thai only three hospitals had as yet been erected in the Unilrd States. Where there are no hospitals, there have been contracts with individuals for the purpose of taking care of any sick or disabled seamen w hich may require inch care. He thought il might be desirable to increase
the number of hospitals, but he was not now prepared lo decide where they would be erected.
