In regard to the Apportionment Bill a
correspondent ofthe Tribune says:
The House refused to concur in the
amendment of the Senate to the Apportion-
ment Bill, increasing the ratio to seventy
thousand, and allowing a representation for
a fraction exceeding a moiety. The Sonati-
will insist and the House will probably
recede,'.hus concuring in the amendint-nis
ofthe Senate. Since it is rendered certain
that the District feature will be retained. the
locus are desirous to defeat the whole bill.

Wr;un'ssnAr. June 15.
In Senate today Mr Evans, from flir-
Committee on Finance. reported a resolution

priation bill from the House.
The resolution was adopted.
The bill providing for the ariricd occupa
tioniof Florida was read a third time and
passed.
The Apportionment bill wis taken up,
and Mr Berrien moved to insist on the
Senate's amendments to the bill, (in which
the House non-concurred.)
The question was taken up without
debate, and the Senate insisted on its amend-
retnarks of last evening in advocacy of the
bill and proviso, declared that iftht.-._ proviso
was not adopted enabling distribution and
revintie to go along together he should
at the earliest opportunity introduce a bill
for the appointment of Comini.-'sioners_to
ascertain the amount of State debts. with
a view to their assumption by the" Gencftll
Government and that ifthe distribution was
not made. assumption or repudiation would
become the question of the country. Mr. J
W. Jones of Va. opposed the proviso in the
bill arguing that it would involve a, breach
in the faith implied in the Distribution Act
and in the Compromise Act. ,
M-r Fillmore replied to some imputations
cast on himself and on the Committee of
Ways and Means fortbe so long delay of
the ‘Re-.venue bill. vindiciiting, by reference
to the facts, their course. .
He had reported this bill to extend till
August only, the existing Revenue laws, to
compel if necessary, Congress to pass a pet'-
manent Tariff law before they adjourned.-
It was expected by the people. and demand-
ed bythe nt'c(:8SIl.le3 of the sountry., and he
would consent to no proposition to neglect
doing it.
At two o'clock the debate ceased. The

The motion failed on the amendment fixing

"‘Iott\itbstanding all the principal which
has been paid into the treasury for three or

has been the pressure for nionev. that the
