natal day of the "Father of bis Country,"
George Washington. He who passed by the
Row office'.' and other pnblio places this

day bad not been forgotten than that afforded
by the general closing up of tuelr windows and
doors, and the want of life and activity about
them. In fact, all the pnblio Institutions, and
not a few.storea, are closed. Tne people, at
least in th-s city, are generally observing the
day. "Ere the bbades of nixht" had gone, a
universal ringing of bells tnrougbout the city

Dhkfs la one of the various Ingredients that con
tributes to lbs art of pleasing, and, therefore, deserv
ing careful attention, for we cannot help forming
some opinion of a man's sense and character from
hlsdicsa. A man should dress well. Let your dress
be comfortable and suitable to your coniiUlon, and
becoming to your figure. Oreat care should be exer
cised In the selection of color and style of tbe mate
rial composing your dress, so that, when departing
from plain Into what are called "XoOby" styles, you
may net look foppish, but well dresped, according
to the stylo of the day. Much napeuds upon your
tailor, to properly arrange the different parts of your
dress to harmonize, aud the color and character of tbe
material, especially ai plaids and laLcy colors are
now the leading style for tbe coming season. Above
all, have your clothes to fit. and to be well made.so
taat they will not look as It you had borrowed them
from airleud or hired them fur tbe occasion. In this

lu the Cutiiotio churclt la tins city yesterday
nioftiintr. A large number of Catholics assem
bled at 8 o'clock to reiist the action of Di.'Uop
filrQuaid in roraovlntr their old pator, O'FliJt
erty, who has labored-nmonjr tHeiu for twenty"
three y eat, and to whom a large majority of
the Catholics in this city ore warmly attached.
The people, after assembling, resolved theor
selves into a nipelinp, and unanimously cou-'
dunned the action of the Ulshop and refused to
permit him aud his appointee, tbe Rev. M-
knvanush, to ?ay mass. A large number pushing
their way to the altar, and taking the latter
by the aim led him out of tha chinch.
It was feared that violence would bo com
mitted cu him, but by the interposition of
Father O'r'laheity it was prevented. After the
Bishop and Father Kavana.U left the church
tho assembly unnuimottsly resolved to hold
another meeting at 11 o'clock, and at that hour
over one t'nousund Catholics assembled, and
passed a series of resolutions declaring their
deteroiiuutiou to stund by their old pustor,
strongly condemning the action of the
Bitbop, and expressing their detoroiiuation to no
longer submit to tho abuses of what they
termed the "one-man power" in the United
States, and to appeal at once to the ecclesiasti
cal authorities of the country, and If neceasury
to the Pope. Addresses were mala by influ
ential Catholics sustaining the resolutions'
which were adopted without a dissenting voice.
Further trouble is anticipated, and the meeting
resolved that the new pastor should net be
permitted to occupy the parsonage.

Tlie Civil Tenure,
The Fepubliean Senators held a cnucus at
eleveu o'clock to day lor the purpose of consi
dering the subject of n repeal of tho Civil Tenure
act. As there Is considerable ditl'erence among
tho members of tho p iny ou this subject, it was
considered best to rettlii the matter in caucus.
A stormy discussion occurred, as those in favor
of an absolute repeal of the law give indications
that they would not be bound by the caucus if
they were forced into Hint position. Leading
Senators thought it bad policy to tepeul the law
now, as Johnson would probably eeud It back,
with a message, whether he approved of its re
peal or modification, in which lie would
ciiticlze the course of Cougrerg in originally
passing the act. The debate was continued up
till 12 o'clock, wbpn it was agreed, this being
the Twenty-second of February, that the Senate
should take a recess until 7 o'clock this even
lug. In tbe meantime the caucus will meet and
resume the consideration of the subject. The
impression prevails that the bill will be allowed
to go over, when the Senat will agree to its
repeal.
Constitutional Amendment.

smeltli'i; liouii ori'a In connection wltn a
smaller umount of the Imported article. ThU
businesR, It Is credibly asserted, bas heretofore
yielded the larger shure of the copper produo-
uuij ui luo country, ana mus tne laanstry
which this legislation la designed to encourage
la actually less than that which will be de
stroyed uy the passage or the bill. It seems, -also,
to be evident that the effect of this mea
sure will be lo enhance by 70 per cent, the cost
of blue vitriol, an article extensively used In
dyeing and in the manufuoture of
printed and colored cloths. To prodnoe '
such an augmentation In the nrlce of thia
commodity will bo to dlsorlrulnate against
o hor great branches of domestic industry, and
oy lncreattiug inuir oost to expose tueui mom
unfairly to tha effects of foreign competi
tion, legislation can neither be wise nor Just
which aeeksthe weUare of a slnele interest at
tbe expense and to the Injury of many and -varied
Interest, at least equally Important and
equally ueservmg ice consideration or (Jon-
grei-s. Indeed, it is diiHoult to find any reason
which will Justify the Interference of Gov
ernment with auy legitimate industry,
exoept as far ss may be rendered
ncceutary by tue requiremuuts ot tne revenue.
As has already been stated, however, the I eels- -
lative Intervention proposed in tbe present In
stance will diminish, not lnorease, the publlo '
receipts. Tbe eunctment of such a law Is urged
as necessary lor the relief of certain mining
Interests upon Lake (Superior, whloh It lit
alleged are in a greatly depressed condition,
and can only be sustained by an enhancement
of the price of copper. If this result should fol
low the passage or tne Din, a tax lor tne exclu
sive benefit of a single class would be imposed, -
npon the consumers oi copper tnrougno

ot the Government, and the avails of whloh.
would not in any degree nud their way into
the Treasury of the nation. If the miners of
Lake Superior are In a condition of want, It
cannot bejnstly affirmed that the Government
should extend charity to them in preference to
those of its citizens wno in other portions of tha
country suffer la like manner from destitution.
Least of all should tbe endeavor to aid them
be based upon a method so uncertain and In
discreet as tbat contemplated by tbe bill, which,
moreover, proposes to continue the exercise of
Its benefaction through an Indefinite period or
years. It l.s, besides, reasonable to hope that
fiosltlve suffering from want of It may exist,
t will prove bpneilclal in a region where agrl
cnliurai lubor is so much in demand,
and so well compensated. A careful
examination of tbe tubject appears to show
that the present low price of copper, whloh, .
alone bas Induced any depression the mining
interest of Lake Superior may have recently
experienced, is due to causes which it Is wholly
impolitic, If not Impracticable, to remedy by
legislation. These causes are in tbe main an
inoreate In the general supply of copper, owing
to the discovery and working of remarka-
bly productive mines, and to a colnoklent
restriction in the consumption and use of
copper as the substitute of other and oheaper
metals for Industrial purposes. It is now sought
to resist by artificial means the aotlon of
natural laws, to place the people of the United
States in the enjoyment and use of an essential
oommodity npon a deiioient basis from other
nations, and especially to compensate certain
private and sectional Interests for the changes
find leases which are nlwavs lnnldnut. trt
industrial progress. Although providing for an
increase of duties, the proposed law does not
even come within tha range of protection In
the fair acceptation of the term.
It does not look to the fostering of a young
and feeble Interest with a view to the ultimate
attainment of strength and the capacity of self
support. It appears to assume that the present -Inability
for successful production is Inherent
and permanent, and is more likely to Increase
than to be gradually overcome. Yet In spite of
this It proposes, by tbe exercise of law-making
fiower, to sustain that Interest and to impose .
t, In hopeless perpetuity, as a tax npon tbe
competent and beneficent industries of the
country. The true method for the mining
Interests of Lake Superior to obtain relief, it re
lief Is needed, is to endeavor to make their
great natural resources fully available by re
ducing tbe cost ot production. Special or class
legislation cannot remedy the evils whloh this
bill is designed to meet. Tbey can only be
overcome by laws which will e fleet a wise,
honest, and economical administration of the
Government, a re-establisnment ol the specie
standard of valne, and an early adjastment of
our system of State, municipal and national
taxation, especially the latter, upon
the fundamental principle that all taxes, whe
ther collected under the Internal revenue or -nnder
a tariff, shall Interfere as little as possU
hie with the productive energies of thepoople.
The bill is therefore returned, in the belief that
tbe true Interests of tbe Government and of tbe
people require that it should not beoomealaw.
