CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. THE POSTAL ROAD. From Washington. fSpecial Despatch to the Bulletin.] WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The Reconstruc tion Committee had a protracted session this morning. They discussed the question at length as to the course that ought to be pursued -respecting the admission of the Southern States, but arrived at no conclu sion. They meet again to-night. The Ways and Means Committee had under consideration to-day Secretary Mc- Culloch's financial bill, but came to no conclusion. They have invited the Secre tary to an interview, which will take place to-morrow or next day. The Committee on Banking are recon sidering the question of removing the Cur rency Bureau to New York. It meets with opposition. From Portugal. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The following let ter has been received at the Department of State : LEGATION OF THE UNITED STATES, Lis sox, December 8, : The enclosed copy of a translation of a law just passed by the Cortes, has considerable importance in a commercial point of view, which might not be understood at a distance without ex planation A number of years past commerce in the article of port wine was limited to a certain geographical district in the north of Por tugal, and regulated by various restrictions which rendered it a monoply in the hands of growers and speculators. The original law was doubtless intended to protect the purity of the wine, but after some experi ence, it was found that the official cer tificates which were necessary for the ex portation of the wine and which were ap plicable only to a particular area of terri tory were used to cover growths outside those limits, and in fact were sold freely as a mercantile commodity, consequently the aim of the restriction policy was virtually destroyed. Repeated and persistent efforts were made of late years to remove all restrictions to the free commerce in this • description of wine as in others and to allow the whole productions of the Minho region, which is exceedingly fertile, to enter the markets of the world, each description dependent on its own merits for success. After a long contest, the liberating law has triumphed, and under the auspices of a minister who was among its most formidable opponents, I have reason to believe that one of the im mediate effects of the new policy will be to enlarge the commerce with the' United States, and for that reason I have deemed it proper to state these facts, for information. I have the honor to be, sir, your obedient servant, JAIrEs E. HARVEY. Hon. W. H. Seward, Secretary of State. TRANSLATION.

QUITE A DIFFERENCE.—The intense cold weather is gradually subsiding. The change in the atmosphere since yesterday morning is great. When the mercury in the ther mometer stood at eight degrees below zero yesterday morning, it indicated eight above that point to-day. The sharp cutting wind which prevailed during Sunday night and yesterday forenoon, died away in the after noon. This caused a moderation in the weather,and the mercury commenced to as cend rapidly. During last night, however, the wind arose again, and the thermometers generally stood at zero, between midnight and daylight, while at Chestnut Hill and other exposed points in the suburbs of the city, several degrees below were reached. At noon to-day the thermometer, with a northern exposure, stoodat 22 degrees. The thermometer at the BULLETIN Office of one o'clock this afternoon, indicated 25 degrees. THE GERMANTOWN MIIRDER.—The po lice of the Twenty-second Ward, and. the detective officers, are working diligently to unravel.the mystery surrounding the brutal murder of Miss Mary Watt, at her residencel on Queen street,-Germantown,.on Saturday morning last. Berger, who was arrested by Sergeant Dickinson, iii still in custody. Developments made yesterday go to con firm some of the suspicions that the prisoner was implicated in the bloody affair. It is stated that Miss Watt made a will about eight years ago. She bequeathed all her 'property, stocks, money and nal estate ; to the Rev. Mr. Mayer. She owned the house in which .she resided,' and had four shares of Germantown •Bank stock, seven shares of stock in the Mere. - its' Exchange and about $1,500 in 7-30 an, 5 , -20 United States bonds. THE ICE CROP.- dealers haVe 'commenced to gatht harvest. The cutting on some of )onds in the suburbs of the city b ie days ago, and this morning ope fere commen ced on the Schuylkill, ce this year is superior to that last year and should the present ip continue for a DAILY EVENING BU week or two the mos , of the dealers will have their houses Mai . SCHOOL CHILDRE FROZEN. -- Many points in the Fifteenth Ward are much ex posed to the cold blast ,of the wind, and yesterday morning children suffered greatly while on their way tol school. At the Pri mary School at Nineteenth and North streets, three children became insensible after reaching the buildings. One of the Directors who was present promptly sent for a physician, and the proper restoratives were applied. , For sometime it was thought that one of the children-would die, but the kindly care bestowed upon all of them soon restored them to consciousness. THE DELAWARE.—The ice which choked up the Delaware iesterday so as to almost obstruct navigation, commenced to move slowly this morning. The Camden ferry boats, with some difficulty, manage to make regular trips, and some of thEi larger class of steam tugs get along below Market street. The city ice-boat is at work to keep the channel open below the city. From present, indications, those who had made up their minds to walk across to Camden will be greatly disappointed. THE FIRE Prcros.—Severest conflagra tions generally occur in the coldest weather and are, most instances, caused through the carelessness of persons in not looking properly after their stoves. There are some apprehensions that the fire plugs have not been attended to and may be frozen. This is not the case however, under the direc tion of Chief Engineer Birkenbine, a thorough inspection of the plugs has been Made, and measures have been taken to prevent any of them from freezing. Finn.—A fire occurred about six o'clock last evening at the residence of Colonel C. McDougall, at No. 1935 Vine street. The flames originated from the heater in the cellar, and before they were extinguished burned a hole through the floor into the parlor, The furniture was mush injured by fire and water. OITARGED WITH ROBBERY. Samuel Mills was before Alderman Allen this morn ing upon the charge of larceny. He has a room on Market street, above Forty-second, and yesterday invited an old man in out of the cold. After the latter had got into the apartment, it is alleged he was robbed of $75. Mills was committed to answer. THE SCHITYLMILL.The river Schuylkill has been tight for several days, but the cold weather of Sunday and yesterday has made the ice very solid. A large number of per sons were upon the ice this morning enjoy ing themselves in various ways. DEATH OF A TELEGRAPH OPERATOR.— Mr. Robert A. Hirst, an operator on the Police and Fire Alarm Telegraph, through the administrations of Mayors Vaux and Henry, died this morning. He has more recently been stationed in the Fifth Ward.

Gillespie, charged with garoting and robbing a soldier named John Dugan, was tried last week by Judge McEntee, of the Provost Court, in Richmond, found guilty and sentenced to ten years' confinement, at hard labor, in the Virginia penitentiary. Judge McEntee expressed his regret that it was not in his power to extend the time to twenty-five years, as be desired to make an example of the desperate rascals who are going about garoting and stealing. in the boldest manner. A SMART LAD.—A boy from the country was recently taken into a gentleman's family. One evening, after having been called up into the drawing-room; he came down into the kitchen laughing immode rately. "What's the matter?" cried the cook. "Why," said he, "there are twelve on 'em up there who could not snuff the candle, and they had to ring for I to do it•" A CURIOUS EPITAPH.—The following curious epitaph may now be seen in Den more churchyard, Ireland : "Here lie the remains of John Hall, grocer.

MARINE MISCELLANY Steamship Minnetonka. of Philadelphia. which was sunk In the Mississippi River recently, by collision with the sunken steamer Mississippi, below N °Heads, has a valuable caro and is fully insured. Steamtug Norman left Philadelphia on Saturday with hose ca pable of discharging 4000 gallons of water per minute, and other apparatus for raising the ship. Ship Escort. Capt Flitner. which arrived at N York on Saturday from Liverpool, remained at anchor in the North River until yesterday morning, when the drift ice came down with the ebb tide with such force as to cut her through forward, making it necessary to run her ashore on the flats near Bedloe's Island. Suf ficient cargo will have to be taken out of her to get at the break in her bow, when she will be easily got off. A letter from Capt Nickerson, of ship Jennie Hight, to one of the owners, says that the ship went on to Carysfort Beef (as before stated) is a dark and stormy night, and that they bad gone to Rey West for assist ance, with the hope of either getting the ship off or of saving a part or the whole of the cargo. The owners, however. have but_ very little hope of saving anything. The vessel was lyig easy when left, but another storm has taken place sub' equently. All .the passengers and crew had arrived safely at 'Rey West, after being out twe days and two nights In open boats. The fit Males were taken off by one of the sponge collecting boats on the reef. The ship was worth from $50,000 to $90,000, on which there is insurance amounting t0.523,0001n Bangor oflices. She was partially freighted on owners' ac count, with lumber, potatoes, &,,c,the cargo being about folly Insured. rISDIA RUBBER MACHINE BELTING STBAM A PACKING, HOSE, &c.

The schooner Saxon, from New York, for Boston, with pig iron and fire brick, Is ashore at East Dennis; crew saved. The London Globe highly eulogises Gen. Grant's official report, and says it is a very able, clear and strikingly modest document —frankly admitting failure 3 and losses,and doing full justice to his opponents. The steamship Ibis,belonging to Cork,had been wrecked near that place and about twenty lives were lost. At Cork, on December 21st, Charles Un derwood O'Connell was found guilty of treason-felony and was sentenced to ten years' penal servitude. He made an elo quent speech,and after beipg sentenced, ex pressed the earnest hope that there could be an exchange of prisoners before his sentence expited. • --..470,617.457 .—... 71.134,We.
