Here is a very readable English translation of a work which in French luta already attained inch celebrity as must have greatly delighted the publisher s—for we read in the newspapers that 'between the prabies of Its friends and tbe censures of its enemies—tiust between the strange, but of course unintentional and purely fortuitous, co-operation in its behalf of ap preciation and depreciation—of salvos ,of welcome front the free-thinkers and thunders of denunciation from the orthodox—of plau dits from the lyceum and anathemas from the chuich--thia superficial but brilliantly written volume of rationalistic theology, biography, exegesis, historical criticism, or what aloe. (for it is a little of everything and not much of anything, except yerhaps surprising examples of cool assumption and flippant assertion,) has reached the amazing meccas, commer cially spooking, of a ale of 35,000 copies I As M. Ronan presents his opinions in an agree able, indeel an engaging style, speaking of his work from a purely litenuypoint of view, and as he is an accredited scho lar in the ori ental languages, which saves hinrfrom the folly of denying the authenticity of the sacred writings, like the skeptics of the last genera tion, and the more illiterate of those of our time, it may be an Interesting and even pro- Stable study for the stadtnt who has not yet. examined . that phase of modern rationalism, which probably reached its fullest and most adequate expression in Stranas's celebrated Lebec Jens,published in 1835' to 'open this vo lume, which has all the attractiveness of style and clearness of exposition • that are almost characteristics of French, as distinguished from Garman, scholarship, and ace what this now method of historical and critical inquiry really is, how it is applied, and winder° its results.

Mr. Hare, Chairman of the Committee of Conference and Inspection, made a verbal re port to the effect that, since the last meeting of the Association, he bad made another effort to call the committee together, but only three members attended. A discussion then followed open the import ance of having a report of the condition of the Fire Department, previous to the meeting of the new councils, but the fact was apparent that a majority of the committee hid no in tention of performing their duty. It was then ordered that thg members ab senting themselves from the meetings of the Committee should be tined. A discussion then followed upon the pro priety of enforcing that clause in the consti tution which provides that any member ab senting himself from two consecutive meet ings of the Association, without giving a rea sonable excuse, shall forfeit his seat in the Association. The list of absentees was called over, ma Goes imposed in every instance. On motion, the seat of Mr. Woods, delegate from the Independence, was declared vacant, and the Secretary requested to notify him of the fart. Mr. Capples moved that the Secretary be re quested to notify the Committee on Fire En gines and Hose of Councils) that thelliagara Fire Company cannot use the now hose lately furnished to them, in consequnce of the info. riority of the couplings. The motion gave rise to considerable dis cussion. The President stated that the Vigilant bad no trouble with the couplings furnished with. their hose, and that there must have been some mistake made in ordering the couplings. Mr. Guppies stated that the hose could not be need until the couplings were bored gat, and he thought ft very strange that the Vigi lant were so eucoessful in getting a good or dole, while other companies were imposed upon with couplings almost worthless. Mr. Hare stated that the hose furnishedthe Eagle wore of a very Inferior quality, and be had notified the Chairman of the Como:dab° on Engines and lipse of the fact. After some further ,dismission on the sub-. ject, the motion of Mr. Clippies prevailed and the Association adjourned.

OZOLNIZATION" OP Tfl UOUBI WASIitACTOII, Dec, 7.--The happy and speedy organization of the House to-4y, is loathe timidity of Emerson'Etheridge, rather than to any leek of dishonest efforts. He neat just far enough to demonstrate his caps-. city for high-handed outrages, but got fright ened and stopped short before going far enough to mlize any benefit from it. The Administration men all suPPoseil if he wen( to the length of excluding . from his list the names of Maryland and other delegations,be would twist nit maintaininkthis list as a roll of the house until an organization had been effected. It was determined, however, to be gin by trying to amend the roll by adding the names he had loft off, and to the manifest disgust of the Dynamite. _lns 'kneel aktollee became weak sale suceolned. Tbatprinti mbility ended the matter. all that' remained was to move successively to read the cer tificates of each delegation he jhad left off . and to order their cameo put on the cell. lie had omitted tbo names of all the members from Maryland, Virginti4West Virginia, gnaws and. Oregon, and a 9 from Missouri h eave two copperheads, and had put on the. names of three - bins membeli from Louisiana. The. Adminietration soon first called for the reading Of ilartificates of mem bers from Maryland. On reading, thcyproved to be from the Governor; to be duly certified by seal and signature, ta recite the law of Maryland under which they Were 011544, end to specify with partionlareare titay.hey. Were elected in accordance with this law. 'Nothing could of course be plainer than this,.and a motion wan Instantly mige 144 ring-them to put the names onj. trot in calling the yeas and nays he could only be required to call from the roil ho had already made, hand it was feared the remaining AdrainietratiOn men on it would not be sufficient to have i majority, To the dismay, however, of the conspirators, (mites masher of Democra ts, disgusted with bare faced fraud, voted for the resolution re quiring Etheridge to put the names on, while othere refused to eats against it, eo it was carried by twenty-odd majority, and the five Maryland men, four of 'limn Administra tion roes, were put on the roll. After that, ell was easy, and other excluded members, their certificates having been read and found equal ly good] were successively voted on. Ethe ridge, fitird the rooment'of tbg fret vote, hav ing became exceedingly olisequiour, and manifestlY cowed. On proceeding to the election of Speaker further demoralization of Democratic discipline was discovered. It appeared that no mucus nomination on their ride had hoestmade for Speaker, Poodle- ! ton having withdrawn, and the CAUCt.IS having refused to nominate Cox. Their vote was ecatterred on Cox, Dawson„Mallory, Stebbins, King, Prank Blair and Stiles. The Adminis tration men from the Northern States voted "square through fur Colfax, Brutus Clay, 'Lucien Anderson, Clay Smith, and William D. Randall, of Kenteeky ; Winter Davis, Webster, and Creswell. of Mary land ; Blow, Boyd, McClurg, and Loon, of NIMPOUTI Smithere, of Delaware,,and all the West Vit.- girds members formed the border State column who voted for Colfax. lie had nine votes morlthan a majority ever all•competiters and had a majority of fifty-nine over little Mr. Samuel Cox. Admit* have bad three votes more, but fur the oillitnelair':cd , the Virgints' membere, and `would. have had three less agalasthim had the bogus Louisiana mem bers been plaited ouihnfays....instead of after the election. This would have brought his , majority up'to fifteen. That is about the prac tical working Admlnistrationtnejority. In the House; to-day, the announcement of Mr. Colfax's election was received with pro longed applause from the galleries, in which the members on the floor heartily joined. Mr. Colfax's speech receives univarsal praise. The prevalent remark about it Is, that he said jut enough, said it in the best possible way, and stopped when be got done. Mr. Brooks, of N. T., manifested a disposi tion to lead off on the Democratic side, but got handsomely 'nabbed. He tried to filli buster, and his party refused to fillibuster with him. Mr. Frank Blair had the honor of being put in nomination, and voted for Speaker by the bogus Louisiana members. The galleries were densely packed during the proceedings, and the floor was covered by • crowd of distinguished strangers, conspicu ous among whom wore Henry Wadsworth, Longfellow, Horace arealy, Ben. Heintzelman, the members of the Senate and a hest of the members of the last House. ISIS DEMUR GOVERNOR Of LOUISIANA The bogus Governor of Louisiana, who signed the bogs* members' certificates with hie private seal, was Postmaster in Now Orleans under the rebel government, when Butler entered that city. Oneef the bogus members was inside the rebel lines at the time of the pretended election, and was sent through by them that be might &me on and take his seat. Thad. Stevens ',tatted in debate that they had applied already to the Sergeant-at- Arme for their pay and mileage.

From New Orleans New Yoe; Dee. 7.--A New Orleans letter states that the forgo interfering with the nav igation of the Mississippi below the mouth of Red river, Is estimated at 4,000 under Gen.

Tho Clerk said ha bad placed on the roll the names of all those whose credentials bore evidence in accordance with the law passed in this House in March last. Mr. "%Yoshio:woe risked whether there were any contestants of seats. The Clerk replied that there were three or four from Missouri, one from Virginia. one from Kentucky, as he recollected. Mr. Stephens repeated his request. Mr. Stiles, of Pennsylvania, asked for the reading of the act of March Sd. The actwas read as follows : An Art regu/ating the duties of the Clerk of the Houle of. Reprotentot:res, in preparing As the organization qf the House—Be It enacted, Ac., that before the first meeting of the next Congress, and of every subsequent Congress, that the Clerk of the next preceding House of Representatives shall make a roll of the representatives elect, and place thereon the names of all persons, and of such persons only whose credentials show that they were regu larly elected in accordance with the laws of their States respectively, or the laws of the l'nited States. At the request of Mr. Stevens, the Clerk road the form of the:credentials of the radi cal members, which ho had ruled out for in formalties. Sir. Dawes offered et resolution that the names of the Maryland delegation be placed on the rolls of the House, and moved the previous question which was seconded. Mr. J. C. Allen moved to lay the resolution on the table. The question taken on Mr. Allen's motion to lay Mr. Dawes' resolution on the table was decided in the negative; yeas 74, nays 94, which caused applause from the galleries and on the floor of the House; Mr. Dawes demanded a Tote on his resolu tion, which was ad'o'pted, and followed by ap pious°. So the names of the Maryland dele gation wave placed on the rolls.. Mr. Denis, of Aid., offered a resolution di recting the names of the Missouei members to be placed on the On:motion of Mr. Garfield, the credential of the Representatives from Oregon was read, and that gentleman's name was entered in the rolls. On motion of Mr. Pike, a similar course was adopted In regard to tile member from Man tas. On motion of Mr. Stevens, the same course 1.39 adopted with regard to the names of the members from West Virginia. Mr. Stevens Own asked that the credentials of the Louis iana member,. Messy,. Deal, Coltman and Baker, be read. The credentials state that the election was in accordance with the Con :citation and lows of Lonisana, and thatsaid election we, held oh the."2d of November last. Tho credential.; of the Lents:ma members aro signed by J. L. Kiddie, Governor of Loui•- iana. Stevens moved that the frames of the LOnifialla members be stricken off the rolls. Mr. Brooks said the House could elect a Speaker without the names of these gents from Louisiana being stricken off the roll. Mr. Stevens protested against this admis sion, but in order to facilitate the organization of the House, he would withdraw his metier, for the present, and again offer it when the Louisiana members were to be sworn in. The eredentiels of members from Virginia were read at the instance of Mr. Lovejoy and resolution was offered that their names ho entered on the rolls. Mr..l. C. Allen raised the point that the credentials were certified to merely by the county clerks. He moved to lay the resolu tion on the table. • The Clerk said the credentials, as ho under stood thorn, were in accordance with the laws of Virginia. A brief conversation ensued a to the legality of the credentials, when the question was taken up and the resolution was agreed tot so that the names of the mem ber front Virginia were entered on the rolls. Mr. Wellborn() moved that that the Hoare proceed to the election of a Sp6aker nix , ens, which was agreed to. Mr. Washborne nominated Mr. Colfax: Mr. Pendleton nominated Mr. Col: Mr. Anemia nominated Mr. Dawson; Mr. Gruder 1301:11i noted Mr. Mallory; Mr. Steele, of N. Y., uom. inated Mr. Stebbins. Messrs.

The HOUao then prococdoil to rote, with following result: Whole number of votes, 161: necessary to a choice, 82 : Colfax, 101 ; Cox. : King, 4 ; Mallory, 10; Stebbins, 8; Damson, 42; Blair, 2i Miles. the Clerk declared Mr. Colfax duly and legally elected. The announcement was greeted with vociferous applanse. Messrs. bassoon and Cox wore appointed a Committee to conduct the Speaker to the Chair. Tho Speaker, on taking the Choir, delivered a brief, eloquent and patriotic address, which woo received with general applause. The members of the House were then sworn. The names of members from Louisiana be ing called, Mr Stevens objected to their being sworn. Considerable discussion ensued when Mr. Stevens offered a resolution that their cre dentials be referred to the Committee of Elec tions. Mr. Allen moved to lay the motion on the table—lost, 101 to 74. The resolution of Mr. Stevens was then adopted—all to 71. The Clerk then proceeded to administer 'oath to the delegates - from the several terri tories. The House then adjourned. SENSTF..—The Vico President called the Senate to order at noon to-day. The credentials of Messrs. Wiley and Van Winkle. Senators elected from West Virginia, wore presented by Mr. Cinnes. The credentials of Mr. Cinnes, of Cal., wore presented by Mr. Nesmith, and the ore dentiali of Mr. Henderson, of Mo., by Mr. Foote. Messrs Cinnea and Henderson were qualified and took the oath of loyalty pre scribed by the lost Congress. Mr. Davis raised the question as to the right of the gentlemen from West Virginia to take seats. Ho held that there was constl- tutionally and legally no each State as Weet Virginia. There could therefore be no Sena tors from such aState. Ills object was simply to put on record his objections. He believed the old State to be intact, end that this whole thing to a flagrant violation. After - a debate, Mr. Davis, as a test ques tion, moved that the oath of offioe be adminia tered to the gentlemen from West Virginia, which was carried by yeas 116, nose s—the nays being Bnekalew, Davis, Hendricks, McDougall and Powell.
