The Commissioners in accordance with the true spirit and, meaning of the law, we understand, awarded the contracts as they were bound to dri, to the lowest bidders who %vete considered rubstan tial and competent to do the work. This was cer tainly right, and it is expected the contracts will be rigidly enforced, and in case of abandonment the per centage retained. The experience incontract ing is now so genet.d, that there can be but little excuse for men bidding below what the work can be done for, anti then abandoning it and procrastinating its completion. In all such cases the penalty ought to be rigidly enforced. We hay. been informed th.ii the bids are nearly, if not quite,. 30 per cent. heluw the estimates of the engineers, and that, at the same rate, 0 would not cost a mil lion of dollars to complete the whole line in the bett and most substantial manner. We never doubted for a single moment that the work would be comple , ed, if funds were provided to carry it on wish proper economy, within the es =awe; of Mr. Foster, and we are now mote than ever sanguine in this belief. The apprehensions which has been generally entertained, that this work would cost the state double the amount of. the estimates : and involve an extravagant and Un profitable expenditure, the public may rest assured t is-wholly unfounded, as the result will prove. "If the funds are provided for its completion, and the work carried on as it ought to be, it will prove to be the best improvement. It will soon return the amount of money to the treasury now wanted to finish it, and create a permanent sinking fund in it self, of not less than $.300,000 per arnom. A few years are only necessary to test the truth of this opinion, and we voluntarily stake any little repute lion we may have on the result, if it is properly' managed. irr The numerous friends of THOMAS B, and ITENIIT C. OVERTON, will be rejoiced to learn that Edward Overton F.sq., of this place, has received a latter announcing their arrival at San Francisco on the 31st of October, in good heal.h, alter having passed' through many dangers and sufferings of the severest character.

Still; unleriethe party lines are broken, no Speaker can be elected who is obnoxious to the Free Soilera. We hay() a report that on Friday night, a caucus of the Demo- rratic members ‘ras held, and Mr. Cobb withdrawn. Should this be the case, and an unexceptionable man be substituted, it is probable that a speaker was elected on Saturday. The small band of men who have stood so firm in this struggle, have earned themselves high hon or, and deserve the gratitude of the North. For -the first time iii the last few years, the Slave Pow e. has been unable to effect its purposes. A few determined and uncorrtiptible men have held in check the influence which heretofore has been accustomed to ride-over and dictate to the councils of the nation. The outset of this contest was mark ed with the usual arrogance -Which characterizes the South. They went into the cau c us with the express determination to support no one for Speak er who was not pledged to them. They have been signally -, foiled and baffled in the undettaking.— This check is soon to be followed, we trust, by oth er and more signal demonstrations which will overthrow- the power which has controlled.. and dictated the Dermnratic party so long. The men who at the outset of the present Congress—so pr g- oath with good or evil to our country—have learn ed the Slave Power that it is not all potent, have earned the highest praise. • The . two Binghamton Democratic papers—the Democrat and the Courier, have been Purchased by I.

The evil could never exist in California and New Mexico. The Cool climate, the business of the country, the habits and pursuits of. the people • forbid it.

Mr. .brasc E. Holmes of S. C. moved to lay it on the table. Mr. Joinnes said that he was aware that a long established custom of the House w 4 to vote viva core, and he was disposed to comply with this cos. tom now; but Congress was convened *o dispose of the public business, and none could be transact ed until the House was organized. Mr. J. eonsid ered that a Speaker el cted by a ph:sulky of votes would answer all useful purposes, as far as business is concerned. as if elected by a majority. Mr. 3. was desirous that a Speaker, whether Whig or Dem ocrat, aboakl be elected at once, to suable :he House to dispose of the public business. Mr. Houma opposed the resolution. He said that .he Constitution of the United States was form ed and ratified by majorities. History teaches as the dangers of being controlled by a minority. A House, composed of two hundred and thirty-mesa bens, might be broken into fractions of twelve or fourteen. Dersiiigoguism is abroad • it cannot be sesisted . .; it is one of the spirits of dm age 'it is not tot us, continued Mr. H, to , silvance the spirit which threatens to;overthrow all that is conserva tive pd valuable to the Union.

The Clerkieenly responsible es Clerli.— . In regard to the individual mentioned the member from Florida, and Mr. hfcClernand, had talked the matter otrer, and agreed to decide who should be mentioned to the noon for temporary Chairman. The Mines of Patton and Boyd were put into the hat and Boyd's was drawn out first. . Mr, Wmusx Dues, of New York, said that it the Hobad already expressed its opinion, it termite no great sagacity to see that the tempts. ry chaff an would be speaker.' Once in the chair Le he would continue there. A more liberal proposi tion werild be to place the Speaker of the last House in the chair, until one was elected. This would be a fair compromise: (Laughter.) Itwould not be the extreme of liberality 'to give the administration a Speaker friendly to it. Mr. Timms 11 BAIL; of Virginia, asked him withdraw his motion. Mr. Dues refused became he would have to al. low others a similar privilege to debate. Mr. Remy, however, vote in snpport of the pro position of Mr. McC. The only object of Mr Doer to it. was that the probabiity was that the tempo mry chairman would be i effect the Speaker. Mr. Does-1 did not ay probability, • but that i f . once in the chairman could not be got out. • Mr. Basta—That would depend onthe manner he discharged his duly ; and for this he might be continued. Mr. Duer seems to object to Mr. Boyd, who is senior in service in the House. During, 27th Congress the House elected Mr. Adams,by universal consent, to be Chairman until a Spe aker was elected. Mr. Boyd would have no other pow er but to keep order. His conduct could not effect the administration in any respect. Mr. ALEXANDER Evans: of Md. then offered a resolution as rienbatitute. It was: That Mears Boyd and Vinumehould-preeide al ternately as Chairman until the electioe of a Speak er, Moe. of i. Agreed.") Mr Roam. C. SCHENIIK, of Ohio. moved an amendment to Mr. McClemand's resolution. which' was accepted : That the acts of the Chairman should have no connection with the legislation Mr. Joseph M Roar. of Ohin-11 the r e is to b e a compromise. all parties should be represented.— (Laughter.)

It is *Waisted that during the whole of the pug eek.

Fronithese and other alleged facts, such suspie ions:tier& aroused, that, in the Professor's absence last evening Mr. Ephraim Littlefield, whO has the care of the -college Wilding and grounds, was to dueed to break the partition wall to the vault under the rrivate labgratory of Prof e ssor Webster, in the basement of the building, and there discovered one Teg and a portion of the trunk' of a human corpse! —in a condition which -made it apparent that the remains hatknot long been there deposited. This discovery, with the fact that Prof. Webster is not an anatomist or surgeon, but simply a chem ist. and haling nothing professionally to do with the dissection of bodies, was ample to give rise to 'the astounding suspicion that Dr f ) arkinan had thus been most foully and diabolically murdered.. Prof Webster was accordingly arrested at his residence in Cambridge, by officers Clapp and Rice and liskted in Deverett street jail, there to await Writer development'. Wejtear that he was inten sely -excited on the occasion and gave way to vie lent exclamations, some of which, if reported cor rectly would seem to etre, giber the chain of minimal:ices pointing to the deepest guilt. Among other language of a similar import, it is currently stated that he need the following;—" Can it be that that infernal scamp (supposed to refer to some act immplice) has betrayed nu I" He was lodged in Lereren-st. goal on :Friday night.

Officers were despatched to-make further inres tigations at the house of the accused in Cam bridr, but no additional evidence was elicited. " The Med ical College was undergoing astrict and thorough search. Among other eirromstanee which have confirm ed the suspicion against Prof.: Webster, smite his arrest it is said that he had ordered a box-at Water man's furnishing store in Comhill, lobe made of stout tin, soldered tight, with the exception ot - the cover which wias to be so made that it could' easily by soldered its proper placer The box was to be about three feet in length by one foot and • half in depth and breadth, and was to have been seat to- Prol. Webster on Friday, the day of hie wrest. The facts as thus far ascertainedehougheompelt ing the moat painful suspicions, it tepreinmed will not be deemed sufficient to afford a legal proof of the guilt of the accused. The body of Dr. Parkman has not been irdentified, andloin the mangled con dition of the remains this must be difficult if not impossible.
