Utter Broni %■ ;i JUwu*BH»o, Jan. 2i, IMO. ; ■ Otniltmm j—t The Tariff resolutions introduced %gr Mr, Strohg were debated on Wednesday lait, tad pa**ed,only 24 voles being recorded against them. Boideeply is Pennsylvania interested In t« increase off duties on iron end coal, that I think tbe resolutions would hare passed without a dissenting voice, but for party rancor, which induced cine of jthe Opposition members to add a resolution reflecting upon the President this is to be regretted, for in Pennsylvania there is opposed to a protective tariff, let poUlkians be fOrced into whatever attitude they may. But that these resolutions! will have any .effect, rdo n|t believe. lam rather disposed to think tbat ilie independent sovereigns who ait at Washington; will be- disposed to treat with contempt anijf effort to instruct them in theitdu ty, especially when suchinstractions cpme from what they! in t|cir lofty grandeur look upon as a very inferiptf body. .Insuring against loss by firo, in Philadelphia has become an. uucertain business;- "Within the lost few years the Legislature has granted' a large number!' of charters for new companies, and it is said that many of them arc noW open and doing business upon fictitious capital. Un der such circumstances it is the duty, as well as tbe interdst, of the solvent companies to crush outf the existence of these bogus institutions, or suffer hereafter for their short-comings. To effect Ibis, some gentlemen arc now here, working for -the passage of . a bill having for its object a thorough monthly examination of the standing end condition of each insurance compa ny in the cities. This bill, if it, posses, will be likely to knock some of the bogus companies higher than a kite, and it is not unlikely that it will send to jCoveutry some that have standing in the community. The contested election case, Wiley vs, Duf field, resulted adversely to Duffield, who has ta ken his departure, and Wiley has taken his seat. The Committee, after a patient investigation re ported, WUeypelected by a majority of thirteen votes. The base of Donnelly vrill not be dec? ded for a orton days, as the Committee will probably ;move to Philadelphia to take the testimony. The Philadelphians are after more Passenger Railway 1 charters, notwithstanding nearly all the main thorough fares are already occupied.— Broad street,;it appears, was, by some means or other, overlooked last winter, and several com panies are after it with several pieces of timber. It is supposed to be the last really profitable speculation left jn that line. There’ are ‘Some six or seven applications for bank charters, and also a bill pending for a free banking law. If there is to be any increase of banking capital in the State, I say let it bo ou the free banking principle. Let the people who have bank-notes in tbeir pockets have the assu rance that they will be redeemed, and it will put an end to the everlasting currency-tinkering No bills of any moment have as yet been pas sed, but I Uye in the hope that we shall soon have something to write that will, at least, be worth the Ink and paper used. Yours, LOGAN. Tub South Carolina Commissioner. —Mr. MemmjngiSr, the Commissioner sent by the Leg islature of South Carolina to Virginia, has been addressing the Legislature of the latter State oil the subjectiof his mission. He argued that, if the Union must be continued, the South must demand otliei and more efficient guarantees, or make concession aftec. concession until she has losi. all influence, all consideration and all right in the Confederacy. He urged the propriety of a Convention of the Southern States to consider the questions growing out of the relations of the South [to tlie Northern States. There is some diversity fn the South as to the propriety of Mr. Memminger’s mission. Mr. Ferry, one of the ablestincmbers of the South Carolina Leg isluture. publicly expresses his belief that it is in bad taste and Quixotic— it was like a neigh bnr going-to a gentleman and telling him his honor was-wounded, and he must resent it or fight, yifginift was able to see for herself what her lionbr required, and did not need the promp tings of South Carolina. 1 r I* • . _ . i jgjr:Ei ;H.

For pages there were some twentyptiye applicants, and six appointed: for pasters- and folders about thirty five appli cants; and eleven appointed ; and for scrubbers (women) vhbout seventy-five applicants, and thirty-three appointed.

Finch publishes in the Brock pprt Adver'iitT a can! of warning to the public, und h.s brethren, tire clergy* in particular, against a woman whom ho married early last fall, and who has since deserted and ruined him. He explains how his ruin was accomplished.— While attending the Brockport camp-meeting, a woman, small in stature; wearing spectacles, and prepossessing in appearance, appeared, pursued him in a carriage, and told him of her esteem, and'how much she was ,worth, and in duced him to marry her. He consented, the knot was tied, and she, having accomplished his rnin, Ibrsork him, probably to find another vic tim. Mr Finch assorts in his card that this woman has served two men, at least, in the same way oefore—bne residing at Belleville, C. W., the other in Wisconsin. The Wisconsin man she left in a destitute condition, with three children to provide for. The Cleveland Plaindealer announces that Mr. J. W. Fitch, U. S, Marshal of Northern Ohio, on the preceding day received a bundle of official documents from the Chairman of the Harper’s Ferry Investigating Committee, com manding him to summon Joshua R. Qiddings, R. Plumb and John Brown, Jr., to appear be fore the committee and testify under path all they may know of the organization of “ The Sons of Liberty.” or any other organization connected with John Brown’s “ work in hian sas." If these witnesses refuse to obey the summons, they are to be arrested under warrants which accompanied the subpoenas The Plain dealer also states that the Sons of Liberty, at West Andover. Ohio, have decided deliberately to refuse to obey tho summons, and to resist if any attempts are made to enforce it. The same action has been taken at Oberlin, Hunting a Pantueh.— Abraham Niv ling, of Janesville, and Amassa Smith, Sr., of Beccaria Mills, Clearfield county, went recently to the Moshaunon woods to bunt panthers. They soon struck the trail of a very large one, which they followed for four successive days, camping at nights by a large fir*, without shelter or any kind, daring very cold weather. On the fourth us crash, fell to the ground, killing three men instantly. Tut, Consequences. —Speaking of disunion, the Richmond Dispatch says : “It is impossible 'to exaggerate the horrors and sufferings wbidh for years wohld follow & dissolution of the Union For ourselves, we have no idea of a pcaceful dissolution. As we have said before, it would be war from the star*, war to the knife, and-tfae knife to the hilt The widely extended border between the North and South would be a lino of blood. Every accessible bay and inlet of every river would be entered, and, ever and anon, large masses of men burled upon the Capitals and important points Of Southern States.” The most powerful pumping engine in the World has just been put in operation at the Brooklyn water-works. v M attest made about a wpek ago it raised 611,0dd pounds one . foot high.
