The Senate have stricken out of the mail steam er appropriation bill the provision inserted by the IIouso to cive six months' notice for the discon tinuance of the ullowance to the Collins line, and the House having insisted upon its amendment, this subject is still undisposed of, the committees of conlerence beinir unable to ajree. This was the the Senate proceeded to consider the Lighthouse AnratoraiATioH was read a third lime and passed, without amend- 1 nieid. Mr. Tearce moved to take up the bill lo repeal the ad granting lands for a railroad in Minnesota Territory. It was taken up read a tirst time, und orJered lo a second reading. Mr. Mason, from the committee of foreign rela tions, made the following report : The Committee on Fore:gn Relations, to whom was referred the message of the President of the United Stales, of the 1st insf., in reply to a reso lution of the Senate asking information whether anything has arisen since the date of his message to the fToiiso, &C, report. The committee entirely concur with the decla ration contained in bis m ssage to the House of Representatives, ami reiterated in his message to the Senate, that in view of the position ot the Island of Cuba, its proximity to our coast, the re lations which it must ever bear to our coinmeicial and other interests, it is vain to expect that a series of unfriendiv acts infringing our eomn rc:a! rights, and the adoption of a policy threatening the honor nnd security of thesis States, can long consist with peaceful rcla'ions, and are sati-fied that whatever measures may be found necessarj to insure future security and repose to the country, menaced from the quarter indicated, and to vindi cate the honor of our flag, will be adopted by Congress. An earnest hope, both on the part ol the President and of Congress, that the difficulties with Spain, referred to in the message, would bV3 been adjusted before the termination of the present session, by amicable arrangement, has, it would appear, caused both to forbear, until but a short interval remains between the close of the present and the stated commencement ol the next meeting of Congress. The full reparation that has been demanded by the Executive, with ade quate guaranties tor the future, will alone satisfy the just expectations of the country, and the com mittee would not hesitate to recommend the provi sional measures suggested by the President, to be executed by him in the recess of Congress, even under the difficulties of maturing them when the close of the session is already at band, were the interval to be long before the next meeting ol Congress. As that, however, w ill he but lour months' duration, they have deemed it better on the w hole to leave the sul j et, us it is at present, w i 1 1 1 the Executive. Should the occasion unfortunately make it ne cessary, it must of course occupy the earliest at tion of Congress at its next sess'on, and for the above reasons the committee ask to be dis charged Irom the further eonsidemti i of the subject. The committee was discharged, and the report ordered to be printed. The naval bill was again taken up, and Mr. M allory's amendment fwi dropping incompetent officers adopted. Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, moved to strike out thi- appropriation for the Memphis Navy Yard, nnd r muring ihe grounds, buildings, &r., to be ceded to the city authorities of Memphis. Adop ted. Other amendments were udoptcd, and the bill passed. liotrsx ok Ukfheentatives. Mr. Campbell, from the select committee appointed to investigate the altt rations made in the Mouse bill to aid in the construction' ol a Railroad in the territory of Minnesota, and also in regard to all other cases of interpolation of bills or joint resolutions of the House during the present session, made a report on the subj ct.

Samuel S. Phelps, of Vermont, that a commission from the Governor of a State is void after a session of the Legislature has inter vened without filling the vacancy. Several private bills were passed, and the Sen ate held an Executive session above reasons the committee asks to be discharged from the further consideration ol the subject. 'Fle Democracy of the Union. We are free to say, that in our opinion, the The House Of Representatives passed a bill to . supremacy Ol me uemocraucpa ,y ,s in roparuy. earrv into effect .he orovisions of the Becrmrocitv lt nothing to ear Irom the strength oi its Treaty with Creat Britain ; also, a bill from the Senate to establish additional post routes, and a bill granting the right of way to the Marysville and Benicia Railroad Company through lands ol thv. United States in California. Many private bills were also passed. Mr. Stanton, from the Committee on the Judi ciary, reported a bill to prevent and punish frauds on the Treasury ; also, presented a report request ing the President to institute proceedings against the agents, attorneys, &c, engaged in the Cardi ner and Mcars frauds. The House adjourned at about hall-past two o'clock for want of a quorum, there being present at the time only ninety-thicu members. The remainder of the session will not be more than sufficient to give the cleiks and committees lime to enrol aud examine the bills just passed. Amongst the uriijracious things of the seesion was the refusal of the House to consider the Se- enemies. l lie elements ot its weakness, 11 mey exist at all, are to be found within its own ranks. The present we conceive tc be an auspicious time to suggest the means by which its integrity may be preserved, and the great ends of its organiza tion be finally accomplished. Congress adjourns to-day, and to-morrow the representative returrts to his constituents. Let those of them who have steadfastly adhered to that construction ol the Constitution which Jefferson and Madison and Calhoun taught, rest assured that from every en lightened constituency they will receive their re ward. Let those, who unmindlul of the tights of the State and forgetful of the fact that they arc the constitutionally appointed guardians of those rights, have consented, for personal or local ad vantage, to lose sight of the old republican land marks, pause and ponder.

From its birth-day to .the present time, the democratic party has claimed to be, and always has been, the State rights party of the country. In 170S they opposed the Alien and Sedition laws; in 1820 they manfully fought against the worse than infamous principle contained in the misnamed Missouri compromise, in 1850 they were found fighting on the side of the constitutional rights of the States; and, in 1854, the crowning glory of the State rights party shone out in their manful 1 repeal of ,tlic- Missouri compromise.

The Closing Scenes in Congress. We learn from Washington that both Houses agreed to extend the time for final adjournment from Friday till cijdit o'clock this evening. This ATOTK'E is hereby riven that application i made at the next session of the Legislature charter lor a Mutual Life Insurance Company located in Charlotte, N. C. Aug.

Senators and representatives from the northern States, the true, the tried, the trusted, vied with the men of the south in giving brilliant exemplification of their true devotion to the common brotherhood, The State rights men knew no latitude, no longitude, no section. All sections and all States received alike a common benefit, resulting from the passage of this (qua! law. To deny those benefits to one section is to deny (htm to all, to extend them to one is to extend them to all. We tell the republican party, through their representatives, that the great battle which was fought on the lloor of the Senate chamber, has lo be fought again before the people. The Slate rights constitutional democrats of the north, with the united people of the south, can and must ward off the dangers which threaten this Union. lt can only be done by an unbending and consistent devotion to those great principles of constitutional 1 quality which serured to Kansas and Nebraska . - .1 r I t 1 1' oi iue va?-i liinnuni 01 uuimisiieu business o lore them. The usual turmoil and confusion incident to the close of every silting has been w itnessed in the halls l both bodies, and throughout the ses sion a spirit of political hostility and personal vindictiveness has at times been evinced that was little calculated to further the ends ol legislation ; nevertheless, we think that a majority of renders will bear us oui in the assertion that a greater number of important bills have been passed and ext cutive measures ratified than was ever before perfected since the adoption of the constitution. Notwithstanding the vast amount of time spent upon the Kansas-Nebraska nnd the Homestead Hills, this has been virtually a working session, and perhaps no measures have given greater satis faction to the great mass of Americans than the shape in which these firs: named passed the Senate, the former finally.
