JOHN FINNEY, Pres. W. II. COOK, Sec'y. Lccompton Defeated. On the first inst., the Senate Kansas Bill came up in the House to be acted upon. Mr. Crittendeu's amendment was adopted, by a rote of 120 to 112, and the bill as amended, then passed the House by the same rote as that on the adoption of the amendment. To all intents and purposes, this vote seals tho fate of the measure. It is not likely that the Senate will accede to the amendments of the House, nor is it at all likely that the House will recede from its amendments; so, in any event, tnis whole matter win be sent back to the people of Kansas for settlement. Tho Crittenden amendment to the Lecompton bill, as passed by the House, provides that the State of Kansas shall be admitted upon certain conditions precedent, namely : i 1. The Constitution (Lecompton) shill be submitted to a full, fair aud deliberate vote of the whole people. 2. That a Board of Commissioners, composed of the Governor aud Secretary of the Territory, the Speaker of the House, and the President of the Council, shall order the election at which the Con - stitution is submitted, appoint the day on which it shall be held, divide the Terri tory into election districts, direct the man-! ner of voting, and count and make returns ' of the ballots cast. 3. If the majority of the votes be 'for the Constitution, the President shall issue his Proclamation, and Kansas at onco shall assume the duties and re-ponsibiii-ties of a sovereign State.

' James C. Mitchell, of 1 lorence, row in Wahiii(!ton, writing from llistCity lo the Florence Courier, under dates of March 14th, and 21st, soysi Dear Coubicr: -My present impres aion is, that there will be no new Land District created on the riillte Valley. 1 find that the Secretary of the Interior, the Commissioner of the General. Land Office, and the Chairmen of the Commit tees on Public Lands in both houses of Congress, are opposed to the measures but are all of them strongly in favor of removing the oflice from Omaha City to the interior, at a distance of from forty to sixty miles from the Missouri river, an order for which will) in all probability, be issued in a very short time, S3 that the of fice can be properly prepared jor the Pub lic' Land Sales which are to take place in September next. At all events, I am satisfied that the interest and convenience of the numerous settlers of the Platte Valley will not be verlooked. Either a new district will be created, (which I bare no hopes of.) or the office will be removed from Omaha, certain 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 Major West, of Pennsylvania, has been appointed to the office of Marshal of our Territory, in the place of Rankin, removed, and his appointment will doubt less be confirmed by the Senate. The Major has the appearance and bears the reputation of a high minded, honorable geirtlertftfn, and is said to be in every re spect well qualified to fulfill the duiies of the office. I think that the people of Nebraska will be well pleased with him, and that his appointment will g.ve gener al satisfaction. Owing to the press of other matter, no further appointments for our Territory have yet beei made ; they1 will be attend ed to, however, rery shortly most likely this week. Mr. Welch will unquestion ably receive the appointment of Secreta ry; and I think it quite probable that Gen. Bowen will be selected to fill the place to be made vacant by the removal of that consequential egotist and consum mate demagogue, Esiabrook ; excellent appointments, both of them none better could be made certainly none tha wo'd give greater satisfaction to Ibe citizens of Nebraska. e . Mr. Cobb, of Alabama, Chairman of the House Committee on Public Lands, told me a few days ago that he should certainly report against creating a new Land District on the Platte, arid recom mend tha removal of the office from Omaha City. However, our Delegate w,u J a M can tj procurft ,hc e establish- im'iitot a new district, in which, of course, he has the cordial co-operation of the friends of Omaha, but I fear that they will not succeed. If they do not. the of fice will moat cerlunly be removed from Omaha City. Yours truly, M. The House or R eta es est a tines. The House is composed of 211 mei.ibers, including delegates from seven Territo ries. Of these, 22 have cray hair, and 29 bald ; 17 wear full beards, 5 the mus tache alone, and 113 have whiskers of different fashion., from the " goatee" to the mmton-chop'' s'yle. The appear ance of the Ilouce is very youthful, and the members are generally medium sized men. IMorth Carolina has the tallest re Pre9enlaI,v- uJ MaIn ,no shortest. build of the renowned Jack Fa! staff, and of these Kentucky has a representative who shows the beat living. Of the members of the House, 85 are accompauied by their wives; 25 by their wives and daughters, and 5 by their daughters alone. About one-fourth of the members aie single men, and of these one-half are confirmed old bachelors, and the remainder want to get married when ever they can. There are probably about two dozen " handsome men," in the opinion of ladies, in the House, and about the same number who are, in the opinion of the samo judges, " hideous." There are five members who speak on every question which comes up, aud par ticipate in all the legislate done, both pub lic and private. Three always speak for the ladies in the gallery, and are never happy unless some " bright eye" are cazinjr at them. About half the House , are talking men, and the 4 may be divid ed into seven classes, as follows: 1st, j Eloquent and logical orators. 2d, Logi I cal and eloquent. 3d, Sound reasoners. 4,1. i;0oj utters. 6ih, V ituperative de uouueers, and 7th, Bora. Tne first four clss.es, I may add, are very small, while the last three are large. Hon. Johua R. Giddings, of Ohio, is the oldest member aud the olue.t man in 1 tjte House, lie has been here, I believe, ! about twenty years. Mr. Orr, of South Carolina, the Soeaker. has represented . t constituents some fourteen years, and Mr. Houston, of Alabama, has been iu the House n arly as long. A "bird's eye view" of the House does not strike the observer with a con viction that it is very great creat in intellect, great in patriotism, great in soul, i nere is very nine gen'us 10 emu nasnea of light, and the talent among the mem bers is like the gold of Australia, covered up with a great deal of earthy mailer, The word which describee the House best u clever-, the meiuUrs are very clever men. in everv seuse of the term, and ' . . thr as much plnei of heart ainoiixT .

Her ma chiuery was built in St. Louisi The Minnie Belle is 125 feet iu leilg'tn, with 21 feet beam, and draws, when light, nine inches of water, and carries 60 tons on 18 inches. She has a small cabin ca pable of accommodating some fifteen or twenty persons, but was designed princi pally for freight. Capt. Davis is sanguine o: bis ability to navigate the river several months in the year. He expresses himself happily disappointed in favor of the prospects be fore him. The design is to run her to St George when the stage of the water will perm t, as the company owning her are principally interested in that town, situated eight miles below Manhattan. It will be to the interest of Lawrence, as in fact all the town on the river to sustain this enterprise. Capt. JJ. promises to make an early trip to Tecuirweh and points hijrher up the river.

Texas asd Disc. 110s. The Legf-lsv turu of Texas, just adjourned, passed an act for calling a Southern Conveu' ion, and appropriating ten thousand dollars, out of any monti in tht treasury, to defray ex peuses, in the event of a rejection of the Lecompton Constitution by Congress. Thus it is proposed to take the initiatory steps for a disolution of the Union. ' The joke of the whole thins? lies in the fact thai there it not a dollar in tht trtatury It is entirely bankrupt, ine state is compounding with its creditors. Her politicians are casting about for the iner est shadow of excuse for repudiation. In v;e v of the fact that Texas came into the Union like a spendthrift child, only when the guardian would consent to pay his gambling debts, we think it very possible that the fast " young un is trying to bul ly Uncle Sam into making another ad vance, to put him on his lees again. It is notorious that Texas was absolute) bought at the compromise of 1850, but that is no reason why it should be purchas ed over again at every new controversy, The vaporings about disunion are only got up to distract atteution from per barren revenue aud exhausted credit. Ten thou: and dollars, appropriated to a disunion convention, has about as much moonthiiu iu it as her large donations to B-b alW er & Co., for bis Southern railroad. She cannot raise money enough to pay her Stale officers, much less her proposed dep uties to a treason ble conclave. Idas will have to try some other device to raixi the wind.
