'ro o nespondenee of The Presto
WAIIIIINVOrt, March 18, 1860.
The resolutions agreed upon by the Senatorial
Committee,intended as instructions to the Charlel
ton Convention, were quietly introduced a few
daya ago by Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, and some
curiosity is felt as to their fate, whether it is the
purpose of the engineers of this movement to bring
them s,,foinardly tbr dienesion, or to allow them
to sleep the Sleep of death upon' the table of the
Senate. It appears lluit and others re
gardihem with a good deal of. alarm, notwith
standing our illustrious Senator gave them his
sanction at lest, and married them in his breeohes-
Pookot to goadiair, where he failed to induce the
Memento° - on . Resolutions to accept them
as the , gospel of the faith of the Demo
°ratio party', of Pennsylvania. Some' of the
Southern Senators who, they, vote for them look
upon the. example they propose to set as in the
higheit degree questionable; and that frank, fear- -
teas, and , honest statesman, Governor Brown, of
Mississippi, will oharga, if they should ever be:
called up in the donate, that Some of the very men
who have , biusiered most in favor of Southern
rights have been deteoted in an attempt to pare
down their lately adopted extreme platform, and to
conciliate the, very, prejudices in the free States
against which, they have so violently and frequent
ly arrayed themselves. Senator Brown will bring
up all mob aspirants with a round turn, and will
insist upon a direct vote in favor of a slave code
for the Territories, arguing that if the Southern
people believe that the Constitution carries slavery
into these Territories, it is the sworn duty of every
3outhern Senator and Representative to insist that
slavery Mall be prottsited, no matter what the bal
lot-box may say to the contrary.
Of all the Southern men, there is not one who
leeks upon this great, Territorial. question with
more upright and statesmanlike motives than
Senator Brown, He is sincerely for a slave code
in the ,Territories, bemuse he believes that the
Constitution carries slavery there ; but, if I know
the man,, he feels much more respeot for Duch a
Democrat as Stephen A. Douglas, who, taking the
opposite view, follows it to its irresistible oon'olu
sion, than for those Southern sehemers who shout
en loudly in the, index, and, after working up
their people to the highest pitoh of resentment
against the Northern States, coolly abandon or
compromise their ground for simply' selfish par.

see that Collector Baker, of your city, is one
of the visitors in Washington, and one of the guests,
I believe, of his Majesty the President, It was a
keen manceuvre on the part of the office-holders of
Philadelphia, Pittsburg, and other places to elect
themselves delegates to the Charleston Conven
tion. They have to deal with a peculiar oharaoter
in dealing with Mr, Buchanan. Red they per
mitted others to represent them in the National
Convention, the Chief Magistrate would have cep.
tared their tubstitutee, and, instead of thanking
them for their eneeeeaful labors at Reading, would
have conferred his favors upon the men who were
to throw certain votes In the struggle for the De.
mooratio nominee for President. Now, however,
that Collector Baker, Naval Officer Mcßibbin,
Postmaster Browne, and others occupying similar
positions, will go to Charleston to Bet for them
selves, they will possess a new hold upon the 'noo
ntide and ambitions man who occupies thePre.
['Mantis'. chair. The' reins are in their hands,
and as they are entirely 1... - '7 4 ,ettetad, they can be
for or against him or his favorlt. precisely as their
interests or'elronmstanoes may I. ggest. Besides,
the sands of the life of the i:.ministration 'are
running out, and a collector, a postmaster, and a
naval officer may, particularly in their capacity as
delegates to Charleston, so play their oar& as to
keep themselves in office for another four years,
while they bid adieu to the men who originally
. placed them there.
Mr. Hunter, of Virginia, is again a candidate
for, the Presidency, Ido not think that his °heroes
are good. While the Southern politicians adialt
the purity of his private and public) oharaoter, and
hie uncommon abilities, they deny to him nerve, or
fixedness of purpose. They allege that ho is a
dreamy, transcendental sort of statesman, and

Mr. Guthrie, of Kentucky, is said to be inlearae
with General Cashing, of Massaohnsetts, and
others, including some of the politicians of Penn

forward, and the latter is evidently not ignorant
of Waren, inasmuch as it is evident that be tom
been playing a orally game to secure the aid and
'comfort of the Administration and its officials on
and after the 23d of April coming. Mr. Davis has
lately become one of the most conservative of men.
Re has dropped his military tone, and now takes
pride and pleasure in delivering the most conoilia.
tory ankpatriotio arguments whenever the occa
sion is presented to him. There is a good deal of
motile in the character, and a vast deal. of interest
in the history, of Jefferson Davis. I do not think
ho could be chosen President, occupying, as he
does, a platform which, to be consistent with blur
melt, he must maintain, and which, duly enforced,
would be destructive to the beet intonate of more
than one ielf of the union. Dqt bete, in reality,

and intrepid ruler.
In the midst of all these intrigues, however,
while the friends of Mr. Breokbillidge are quietly
and indtuitriously urging him forward, screened all
F the time behind vague deolerations that he is not
in the field, the sentiment is gradually ripening
and strengthening that the nomination of Douglas
is essential to the success of the Democratic party
in November next. The ovidermee in the South of
this feet daily multiply.. A better and a kinder
feeling towards Douglas is beginning to be exhi.
bited - in both branebee of Congress and among
the politicians located here. Within the last few
days be hal carried delegates in Maryland and
worth Carolina. Ills friends claim among his sup
porters shah Representatives as Cobb and Houston,
of Alabama,Warren Winslow, of North Carolina,
Craig, of bilnionri, Rust, of Arkansas, Prior, of Vir
ginia, and othetw, and it is well known that John For
syth, of Alabama, Pierre Soulh, - of Louisiana, Knox
Walker, of Tennessee, and men of equal rem'.
Mules, in the slave States, are enthusiastically sup
porting his claims. Now, all that Douglas needs
to . give him the nomination is a strong body of
supporta ,( i r iom the Southern States, and it looks
as if he' would achieve this desideratum. Mr.
Sigler, Mr. Plumer, and others from Pennsylva
nia, snake it a point to declare that he can never
get the majority of the delegates from your State,
"and as the Administration insists upon its ability
to control the New York delegates, and the dole.
gates from New Jersey, many of the hopes of the
friends of Judge Douglas may be disappointed,
even when the fruit is supposed to hang luscious
and near before their eyes.
Shad the pleasure of seeing the "little Giant"
at his lady's reception on Saturday last. He was
in rugged health, looked bright and oheerfal, and
mingled with the happy throng as gay as the
youngest men present. I never saw Mrs. Douglas
look more lovely than she did while receiving the
salutations of the arose& who visited her hospita
ble home,
We had another evidence yesterday of the man
ner in which the peculiar friends of the Admitls•
trahon in the House treat the important interests
of Pennsylvania and other States, upon the props
sitiona of Mr. Morrill, asking leave to introduce a
bill in the House, the object of which was the
payment of the olatatanding treasury notes by a
loan, and the regulation and fixing of the duties
on imports, and for other purposes, From what I
have heard of this bill, it is generally acceptable to
our friendit, and if passed, wanld have given great
satisfaction; and yet, upon the motion to print

and Whitely, of Delaware, Every. Administration

lion Demooratt from the North and i lforthwest,
voted " no " with the exceptions referred to.
Let me do our old friend Florence the justice to
any that I believe he is always disposed, whenever
he can get loose from the trammels of the office
holders here, to do his best for his constitnente,
and the interests of Pennsylvania. There is no
where to be found a lander.hearted man than the
' "Donorable Tom," none more willing to do a ger•
vise for a friend, - tuad none whose nubile services
have resulted less to his own advantage. I have
had: to complain of him because of his pliant
yielding to the Administration on the Kansas and
other questions. but when I see how ready he is to
assist any one in distress, and how glad to show a
generous appreolation of a fair oppopent, I feel
like forgiving and forgetting all the past.
Things continue to drag al ong slowly in both
branelme. I am more them ever convinced that
little or nothing will be done during the first ses
sion of the present Congress. Parties are so olose
in the House, and the sectional spirit so rife In the
Senate, that no conservative measure seems to have
the slightest prospect of- moose. .1 almost despair
of th e N o me railroad, and you have seen the fate
of the first effort to' provide for a reasonable re
cognition of the wants of the great industrial in
terests of the Middle States. The appropriation

erosion upon them will consume most of the time
prior to the meeting of the three great National
Conventions.
' I hik the pleasure of being present, among some
twelve or fifteen others, last evening, to hear the
last lecture Of the series which have tweeted se
much sensation in this city, delivered before the
Smithsonian, Institute, by' the Right Reverend
Bishop Spalding, of 'Louisville, Kentucky. Ile Is

native-born °Risen of Kentuoky, and a gentleman
of extensive acquirements, great learning, and nit
common eloquence. Having heard him spoken of
by hie numerous friends in Philadelphia, I nought
the first - opportunity to bear him,' and I must
say that , I shall never forget the ingenuity,
ability, end power 'with which he' treated the
tiebleekof ,civil liberty in this hie last Me
ters- Sp?aking to an audience more than two
thirds Protestant, he vindicated the 'claims of
WO own Church , the character of having
been the friend of the opprosaed and the friend of
liberal prinelples during the dark ages, without
giving offense to a oingle one of his vast auditory,
and without using o Anglo term that the most sen
sitive eeotarian oould object to. It was a epees
ale worth remembering, to see under the roof of
this noble Institute, dedicated to liberty and to
learning, one of the oracles of the Catholic Church,
boldly speaking in defence of that phuroh in the
presence of hundreds who were known to ho at"
taohed to other denominations. Let this generous
and genuine American spirit continue to preside
over the Smithsonian, and it will flourish to the end
of time like Oxford itself, and be looked up
to in coming generations as one of the noblest
proofs that here, on the soil honored with the
name of Washington, toleration and freedom of
opinion and of speeSh are carefully cultivated and
recognised. The venerable Bishop was introduced
by Professor Henry, the aooompliehed head of the
Sreithsonlanlnstitute, so well known in Pennsyl

.and, notwithstanding all the opposition
which has been made to him here, so widely re

PHILADZLPEM. March 13.
A small business marked this day's meetings of the
stook brokers. though there was no tendenov shown to
lower prices. Reading Railroad sizes of '43 advanced 34,
closing at 993 bid, but the stook was heavier.
A great deal of surprise in felt at the heavy advance
in the amount of loans reported by the New York
banks. The falling off in the specie reserve was not
unexpected, and will be more than made up this week
by the California arrival, and by disbursements from
the Sob-Treasury, but the heavy inorease of loans was
not looked fer, and is thought dangerous. because it is
supposed to have arisen from too great a desire to mike
dividends, and to be calculated to foster and stimulate
Wok speculations,
