From Washington.
In the House of Representatives, at Wash- i
iugton, on Thursday last, a whining message 1
was received from the President, protesting
against the first two clauses of Mr. Covode's
resolution providing for a select committee to
examine into alleged abuses by the Presi
dent, or any other officers of thegovcrnuicut. !
Iho President delonds the rights and duties 1
pertaining to his office, and takes the ground !
that Congress can act only under the impcach
power, in reality claiming a kingly pre
rogative. Mr. Sherman, in a brief, but forci
ble speech, took ground against the doctrines
broached in the message, contending it was !
competent for the House to inquire into the j
subject, and in its own way without regard j
to the President's views or wishes.
Mr. Blake, of Ohio, made some sensation
in the Houso on Monday, by a set of bun.
combo resolutions directing the committee on
the Judiciary to inquire into the expediency
of reporting a bill giving freedom to every
human being and interdicting slavery wherev
er Congress has constitutional power to legis
late on the subject. It was defeated by a ma
jority of forty-nine.
Some importunt developments have been
made by the I'rinting Investigating Commit
tee, of which Mr. Haskin is chairman, A
wholesale system of fraud has been exposed,
and wo can learn how the Democratic party
has kept itself in power. No Democratic or
gan of any note has been able to sustain it
self as far north as Washington, and all the
important wretched party organs have been
kept alivo by robbing the Treasury.
The Committee, of which Mr. Covodc is
chairman, aro raking up still more important
matters. These exposures will consummate ;
the disgrace of Mr. Buchanan's Administra
tion, and will seriously affect the party as
they ought to do. Yet, so far as Mr. Buch
anan is concerned, it is wholly useless to ex
pose any more of his weaknesses and frauds.
&2?~fhe Connecticut election, on Mon
day last, resulted in the general success of
the Republicans, their ascendency in the
House and Senate being complete, thus in
suring the choice of a United States Sen
ator. For Governor the vote is close, but 1
the Republican candidate is reported elec- !
ted. Considering the means brought tq
bear by the administration to carry this
State, the result is a gieat triumph.
Railroad Pro Rata. —The Senate of
New York has finally defeated the Proßa-!
ta bill by adopting a substitute, which sub
stitute appoints three Commissioners to con
fer with the Commissioners to be appointed
for a similar purpose in other States, to in
quire into the propriety of adopting a gen
eral Pro Rata system, and report at the j
next Legislature. This was adopted in the j
place of the Assembly Bill. This substi- j
tute is favored by the friends of the rail
roads, and is recommended as the best
means of investigating the practicability of
pro rata, while not risking the interests of
the State.
Elizabeth, a little daughter of J. W. Schwei
gart, of Altoona, aged about 11 years, was
severely burned, a few weeks ago, by the ac
cidental upsetting of a fluid lamp. Iler face,
breast and arms-wore shockingly burned, and
she stiß lies in a critical condition. ' Mr.
Schweigart also had his bauds aad arms se
verely burned in his efforts to save his child.
Mr. Foster and the Democracy in 1857.
In 1857 there was a spirited contest for
U. S. Senator at Harrisburg which resulted
in the election of Gen. Cameron, several
democrats preferring the latter to either
Forney or Foster. The democratic papers
were quite severe on the " traitors," and
denounced them by wholesale. Among
ethers, the Lock Haven Watchman has
j resusciated some articles from the Clinton
Democrat, edited by 11. L. Diffenbach, now
Deputy Secretary of State, the first of
which is as follows :
! " 110 (Foster) is a lawyer, has served two
or three terms in Congress, and is now a mem
ber of the Legislature. He did not d'Stin
guish himself in either of these positions,
and he may not be fts able as his friends rep
resent him to be, for they have a fashion of
making great men of rather scanty material
j iu the western part of the State."
From the same paper of the 19th of Jan
uary, 1857, we find the news of the elec-
I tion of a United States Senator recorded
as follows :
" ELECTION OF A U. S. SENATOR. —Loth
Houses of the Legislature met in convention
on Tuesday last, for the purpose of electing a
l". S. Senator. On the first ballot the vote
j stood:
For John W. Forney, Dam., 55
" Simon Cameron, LI. Rep., Gl
" Henry D. Foster, Traitor, G
In the issue of the Clinton Democrat of
the 23rd of January 1857, we find the
following;
"This result is moat humiliating. That
the Democratic party should labor for mouths
to convince the people of the justness of their
cause, and then to be deprived of the fruits
of their victory, hy the grossly indecent
treachery of a few vile miscreants is as mor
tifying to every honest man as it is base, sor
did and villainous in the scoundrel perpetra
tors of the wrong." He then adds " liutone
motive can be assigned.—The base Juduses,
Foster among them, have been purchased like
sheep."
In the same paper of the same date in
another column we find the following :
TUB SENATORIAL ELECTION —When we
spoke of this shameful event in our last issue,
our information was derived from telegraphic
dispatches, we have the full history of the oc
currence now. Forney, Democrat, had 58 '
votes; Cameron, Republican Gi ; Foster Trai
tor, 7 ; and Mr. Foster himself voted for Mr.
Wilkins. What excuse these rascals make
for their treachery, or whether any, we are j
not informed. To style them Judases is to
slander old Iscariot, for though he betrayed
his Lord, he was decent enough to hang him
self immediately afterwards, which these irai
tors, we regret to say, have not as yet done.
It is mockery of language to attempt to
characterize their conduct. There is nothing
meaner than an ingrate—nothing so villain
ous as a traitor, and Foster is guilty of both.
The motive of the act is clear—no other than !
pecuniary profit."
IIIF. LOI.TERS. —II. I). Foster, John Fau
sald, Samuel Hill, of Westmoreland; J. K.
Calhoun, of Armstrong; R. J. Nickolson, of
Jefferson ; S. A. Lackers, of McKeao; G. X. j
Smith, of Cambria; and Juhn Cresswell, ;r.
of Lluir ; were the Democrats who refused to j
attend the Democratic caucus and suppor its i
nominee. W a look upon these men as trai- '
tors.
I " Among the incidents of the victory of the
j Democratic party last fall, was the right to
1 be represented in the I'. S. Senate, for the
term commencing on the 4th of March next,
. The victorious party had won the right to
j choose the Senator. And none but a major
ity could make a proper selection for the par
ty of the legitimate fruits of its victory and
j cheated it out of its right. In this light the
• conduct of the bolters is wholly indefensible.
" As to Foster himself, we know but little
about him. We spoke of him before the Sen
atorial election as one who had served in mak
; ing known to the people of the State that
such a man lived. We said that he had
friends in the western part of the State, who
I spoke of him in high terms, but as they had
a fashion of making great men out of small
1 material in that quarter, we did not know
whether he was all lie was represented to be.
But he has now succeeded in making him-
I self known, and no one will now have much
difficulty iu measuring the calibre, his patri
, otism, or his love for the Democratic Party.
His selfishness, his factiousness, his weak
ness, puerility stand out conspicuously to the
gaze of the public, lie has voluntarily plac
ed himself beyond the pale of the Democratic
fold, and there let him stand, or fall, or wal
j low, as best suits bis tastes. We admire an
independent man, but despise a puerile fac
: tionist. The littleness of soul that mistakes
unreasonable factiousness and stubbornness
for independence, characterizes selfishness
j under all circumstances, and we have never
seen a more thorough exhibition of these
! traits than has been exhibited by Henry D.
Foster, throughout the recent Senatorial stru--
; gle."
j There, reader, you have good Democrat
-1 ic testimony in regard to the political and
' private character of Henry D. Foster, the
present Democratic nominee fur Governor;
j you can believe it or not. We give it to
| you as wc find it, without further comment.
Pennsylvania Legislature.
i It is almost impossible, from the mass of
bills repertcd in various stages, to know
what has been done or left undone. The
following we notice in the Record :
An act for the relief of Theodore Franks.
An act to change the time of holding courts
; in Mifflin county.
An act relative to the Freedom Iron Compa
ny.
The Sunbury and Erie Railroad bill was
defeated in the House on Friday, but was
again brought up on Saturday, when the
following proceedings took place:
Mr. LAWRENCE moved that the House
reconsider the vote had on the bill relative
to the Sunbury and Erie Railroad, on Fri
day evening.
The first section of the bill authorizes
the Attorney General, at his own discretion,
to withhold foreclosing the mortgage held
by the State against the company until
February, 1861.
The second section allows contractors'
liens, in case of a sale, to take precedence
of the State lien, to the extent 0f8600,000.
The third section authorizes the Sunbu
ry and Erie Company to contract with oth
er companies for the completion of their
road.
The bill then being before the House,
Mr. Lawrence, of Washington, moved to
go into Committee of the Whole for special
amendment.
Mr. Pierce moved to go into Committee
of the Whole for general amendment.
This was lost by fifty-six to twenty-four. —
The motion of Mr. Lawrence, of Washing
ton, was then agreed to, and the House go
ing into Committee of the Whole (Mr.
Sheppard in the chair,) Mr. Lawrence offer
ed the following as a substitute for the first
section of the bill:
Be it euaded, ifr., That so much of the oth
section of the act of April 21, 1858, as re
quires the Attorney General to sue out the
mortgage held against the Sunbury and Erie
Railroad by the Commonwealth, if payment
should fail to be made within twenty days af
ter principal or interest shall become due, is
hereby suspended, and no proceedings shall
be instituted by virtue thereof, until Februa
ry 1, 18C2; provided that if any judicial sale
by the State, of said Sunbury and Erie Rail
i road, shall or may be made, the amount due
| contractors on that part of said road between
Williamsport and Erie, for work and labor
actually done, and material furnished between
Ist August, 1859, and April Ist, 18G0, shall
be preferred to the mortgage held by the
Commonwealth, provided that the sum thus
preferred shall not exceed $500,000; and pro
vided further, that no suits, proceedings, or
| process of any kind whatever, shall he insti
tuted, either in law or equity, against said
j company, upon auy bonds hereafter to he paid
j or given out by the said company, until after
the first day of Mareh, A. P. 1862.
Mr. Thompson strongly advocated the
i above substitute. Its merits were also de
; bated by Messrs. Beardslee, Collins, Kiu
j ney, and Lawrence of Washington. The
i discussion progressed to such a length, and
■ took so wide a range, that the " previous
| question" was called by Mr. Teller of Erie,
against the earnest protest of Messrs.
Beardslee, Collins, Jlill, and others, who
denounced it as a " gag law." The call
for the previous question was sustained, as
required, by twelve members, although not
without difficulty.
On the question, " Shall the question
(viz; on the substitute) be now put ?" it
was agreed to, by a vote of fifty-seven to
thirty-four, aud the substitute, as above,
was adopted, by a vole of fifty-five yeas to
thirty-three yeas.
The bill being before the House on its
final passage, as amended by the insertion
of the substitute, it was agreed to by a vote
of 53 to 38.
The above bill was defeated in the Sen
ate, when a committee of conference was ap
pointed which resulted as follows :
Mr. McC'lure, from the committee of
conference on the Sunbury and Erie Rail
road bill, made a report, and stated the
terms of agreement. By the provisions of
the bill no process can issue for the fore
closure and sale of the road, either by the
Commonwealth or any other creditors, till
May Ist, 1861. All such processes are pos
itively stayed till that time. The creditors
for work, labor, and materials are preferred
to the amount of $600,000. The other
features of the bill are generally the same. I
The report gave rise to considerable dis
cussion. Mr. Penny opposed and Messrs. !
Finney and MeClure supported it. The ;
report was then adopted—yeas 13 nays 11 !
—as follows :
Yeas— M essrs. Benson, Blood, Connel, ]
Crawford, Finney, Gregg, Keller, MeClure,
Marselis, Miller, Palmer, Parker, abd Smith
—l3*
Nays—Messrs. Craig, Ilall, Irish, Ketcham, j
London, Meredith, Penny, Rutherford, j
Thompson, Turney, and Yardly—ll.
I'pon the reassembling of the House, the j
committee of conference on the Sunbury •
and Erie Railroad bill made report.
M essrs. Collins, Kenney, Africa, and ;
Austin opposed the hill with much earnest
ness.
Messrs. Gordon and Thompson advocated j
it.
Mr. Beardslee. Mr. Speaker—■
Mr. Reese (interrupting). 1 call the
previous vuestion.
Mr. Collins. We demand the opportu
nity to denounce this bold scheme of rob
bery.
Mr. Beardslee. I had the floor before
the call for the previous question.
Much confusion prevailed. The lobbies !
were crowded.
The call for the previous question was
sustained, and on the question, "Shall the j
main question be now put ?" was agreed to
—yeas 52, nays 37.
The report of the Convention was then
adopted —yeas 52, nays 37.
Mr. Bates voted lor the Sunbury and
Erie Railroad bill throughout.
The Free Banking Bill has passed both '
houses and received the signature of the j
Governor. It provides, among other things,
that the capital of every bank established,
shall be invested in State or United States
Stocks, which shall be deposited with the
Auditor General for the security of the
public.
The Legislature adjourned on Tuesday, j
the Senate having first elected R. M. Pal-!
mer of Schuylkiil, Speaker.
LOCAL
NATIONAL HOUSE.— This old, well-estab
lished and favorite hotel, second probably
to none in the interior, will continue in
charge of Mr. S. Aultz during the ensu
ing year. Its general arrangements are
such as to afford comfortable quarters for
boarders and temporary sojourners, and its
fable daily supplied with all the delicacies,
j luxuries, and substantial food the markets
afford. Those who once take up lodgings
at this establishment, seldom fail to call
again when on a visit to Lewistown, as it
becomes evident to the most casual obser
ver that it partakes of that class iu which,
from the principal down to the ordinary
servant, there is every desire to make the
stay of visitors agreeable.

SUPERVISORS. —The following impor-!
taut bill, introduced by Mr. Wagenseller }
of Snyder County, has passed both houses j
.and received the signature of the Gover- I
nor. Under it Supervisors are required j
to give security in a sum not less than !
double the probable amount of tax which i
may come into their hands. The law ;
must be complied with within thirty days i
after the election:
SECTION 1. Be it enacted, tCc., That from
and after the passage of this act, it shall be ■
the duty of the towntliip auditors aud j
borough councils, to require the overseers of j
the poor and the supervisors of roads, in ;
each township and borough in this Common- j
wealth (except the county of Schuylkill,) be j
fore entering upon his duties, to give bond j
with security, to be approved by the auditors ■
or borough councils, in a sum not less than \
double the probable amount of tax which !
may come into the hands of the said officers,
which bonds shall be taken iu the name of
the said township or borough, conditioned for ,
the faithful performance of their respective !
duties, as supervisors and overseers of the \
poor, accounting for the paying over to the
township treasurers, or to their successors in i
office, any balance that may remain in their i
hands, within thirty days after the settlement j
of their accounts by the aforesaid auditors or
borough councils ; and in case the said officers
shall neglect or refuse to pay over said bal :
lance remaining in their hands, within thirty
days after the settlement, it shall be the du- '
ty of the said auditors or borough councils
holding the bonds to proceed, by due course i
of law, to collect the same for the use of said j
township or borough ; Provided, That each i
officer may give security individually iu dou
ble the amount of such sum as may, in the j
judgement of the auditors or borough coun
cils, come into his hands for the ensuing j
year, and in such case he shall not be a<£ !
countable for the acts of his associate in
office.
SEC. 2. That any officer or officers failing j.
to give the security required by the first sec j
tion of this act, within one month of his '
election, then his or their offices shall be de !
elared vacant, and the court of quarter ses
sions shall appoint one or more, as the case
may be, subject to all restrictions of the first
section of this act, and who shall hold his or
their office till the next election : and until
such appointment is made, the officer or of- 1
ficers giving bail shall act; if all fail to give
the required security, then the preceding offi
cers shall perform the duties as heretofore
until such appointment is made by the court,
in accordance with the provisions of this act.
SEC. 3. That any officer failing to give the
security required by this act, shall not be lia- i
ble for the penalty imposed by existing laws !
upon township and borough officers refusing
to serve: Provided, That the auditors and
borough council shall be satisfied that such
security could not be obtained.
SEC. 4. That all laws which are inconsis- }
tent with, or are supplied by the provisions
of this act, be and the same are hereby repeal
ed.
For a proper understanding of the above
Act, it is proper to state that some townships
have the right to elect three or four Supervi- 1
sors.
In consequence of the approaching Demo
cratic convention, several heavy orders have
lately been sent from Charleston to New York
for fire-proof locks and other means of pro
