From our Third Edition of Yesterday From Washilimlow; [Special Despatch to the Bulletin.] WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.—The Ways and Means Committee came to no conclusion to-day in regard to the loan bill. They are pretty well agreed to everything except its foreign clause. The Reconstruction Committee are taking evidence. They have had several persons before them, Treasury agents and others, who have been traveling South for six or eight months. The evidence eliciteddoes not benefit the chances of admission of Southern delegations. The Secretary of the Treasury gives no encouragement to the Canadian officials, who are urging an extension of the time for the termination of the Reciprocity Treaty. The Committee on Banking will probably report against any extension of the present capital of the National Banks. XXXIXth Conioress—First Session. :WASEILNGTON, Jan. 18, 186 G. SENATE.—Mr. Chandler (Mich.) offered a joint resolution to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to direct the issue of Ameri can registers to certain British built vessels, owned by American citizens.

Y.), from the Committee on Commerce, reported, without amend ment, the House bill to extend the time for the withdrawal of goods from the public stores and bonded warehouses. Also a bill to authorize the construction of a telegraph line from New York to the West India Islands. Mr. Wilson (Mass.) offered a resolution instructing the Committee on Printing to inquire into and report the amount paid to the Washington city newspapers for adver tising, and under what law, Vic. Passed. Mr. Howe's (Wis.) joint resolution for the appointment of Provisional Governors in the Southern States was then taken up. Mr. Nesmith (Oregon) addressed the Senate at length. HousE—Mr. Jenckes (R. I.) reported a bill to establish a uniform system of bank ruptcy throughout the United States. It was made the special order for the 30th inst. Mr. Delano (Ohio), from the Committee on Claims, reported a resolution asking to be relieved from the consideration of all claims growing out of the appropriation or destruction of property by the army and navy in suppressing the rebellion. No defi nite action was taken on the subject. Mr. Lynch (Me.) offered a resolution which was referred to the Committee on Commerce, that all vessels once American being placed under a foreign flag or register during the late war, should be treated as foreign built vessels, and never again be allowed an American register. He also introduced a resolution, which was adopted, calling on the Secretary of the Treasury to inform the House how many such vessels have been allowed new re gisters. The House resumed the consideration of the bill extending suffrage in the District of Columbia. Petutsylvania Legislature. iI_A_RIEUSBURG, Jail. 18 . . SEICATE.-Mr. Connell read a bill incor porating the Silver Mountain Mining Com pany; also, one making the legal rate of in terest seven per cent. Mr. Ridgway, a supplement to the act providing for entering satisfaction on judg ments and mortgages. Mr. Hoge, one incorporating the Central Railroad of Pennsylvania. Mr. Randall, one incorporating the Great Eastern Horse Insurance Company. The committee reported David McCo naughy, of the Nineteenth Senatorial Dis trict, entitled to the seat, and he was sworn in. The supplement to the act incorporating the East Mahanoy Railroad was passed. ROUSE.-A Committee of three was ap pointed to revise the Common School sys tem and regulate the incomes thereof. Mr. Davis offered the following : liesrlved, That hereafter it shall be com petent for the several Banks in the State to make and enforce contracts for the rate of interest not exceeding seven per cent., pro vided this act does not affect the existing contracts. Mr. Ruddiman offered a resolution ap pointing a special session on Tuesday even ing next to consider the resolution relative to the death of President Lincoln. Agreed to: Mr. Davis presented a petition for change of the name of the Central Coal Oil Company and power to construct a railroad,also one in favor of allowing interested parties to tes tify in their own behalf. Mr. Danks offered a resolution closing the hall of the House on Sunday. Mr. Crosland said that members who were forced to remain in Harrisburg over Sunday, must either stay at hotels or come to the House, and the latter was preferable. Mr.Ruddiman—Another opportunity was open, that of visiting church. Mr. Crosland thought there was a dis position to force the members to some church, and while he had the ability to fol low the dictates of his own conscience, he did not intend to be forced in a land of reli gious liberty. Messrs. Banks and Ruddiman repudi ated the idea of force, but insisted that the officers of the House needed relaxation. Mr. Sturdivant stated that for five years past the Hall had not been closed on Sun day. • Mr. Quigley moved to postpone the whole subject indefinitely. On this the ayes were 57 and the noes 35, so the motion was agreed to. The Philadelphia members voting in favor of indefinite postponement were Adair and Davis (who thought that the matter was provided for by the rules), Donnelly, Free born, Ghegan, Hood, Josephs, Kerns, Lee, Marks, Quigley, Subers and. Wallace. Those voting against postponement were Ruddi man, Sterner and Watt. Absent, DeHaven and Thomas. r r , • e beirmun NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—The U.

Met Pands—Justice Read.—The Pennsylvania Rail road Company et al. vs. Toe Atlantic and Great Wes tern Railway Company et al. The argument on this case was resumed this morning by Dir. Gibbons, He contended that the crntract between the Catawissa Railroad Companyland the Sunbury and File couldnot be assigned. In having made the transfer to toe At %title and treat Western Railway Company, the; Ca tawissa Railroad has put it beyond its power to cote- Ply with the covenants with the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Company: He next adverted to the Atlantic and Great Western Railway Company,. quoting from ,the Acts of Assembly In order to defend its powers and privileges. The first actlncorporating the Mead ville Railroad fixed definitely the termini of the road. They must by this act rgo to Meadville. Have they gone to Erie? Have they ever carried a passenger or a pound of freight from Meadville to Erie? Never. When the Legisla ture directed this Company to give "the same or equal connections" to the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Cum - piny, it was never intended that the Company should be the destroyer of the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Company, then In the course of construction. In com menting upon the charter of the Company, Mr. tub bons cited authorities in order to establish the point that in all cases of the doubtful grant of power, the doubt is resolved against the Company claim ing to exercise these powers. By virtue of these decisions the Meadville Railroad Company is held to the strict performance otthe duties and powers delegated to It. It cannot escape the construction of the railroad from Meadville to Erie. They might have accomplished it by connections, but they have failed to do it in that way, but availed themselves of this privi lege or extending their road' from some point thereof to connect with other railroads leading to or from; the State," and before the construction of their main line of road they hasten to construct a railroad with a gauge of six feet, connecting It with the New York and Ede Railroad at Salamanca. thus affordisg a con tinuous line of that gauge extending from ibe city of New York into the interior of Ohio, and passing thronah the oil regions of Pennsylvania, thus deflecting trade from the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Company. The fact is, that this company has , not constructed one foot of the railroad authorized by Its charter. In reference to the allegation on the other side, tbat the act of Assembly had been complied with by the connection with the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Company, Mr. Gibbons discussed the sub ject of "connections." The Atlantic and Great Western Railroad Company "connects" its six feet gauge with the New York and Erie Railroad, of the same gange at Salamanca, while in our own state the "connections" consist in crossing the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad. Throw aside all the affidavits on either side, and look at the law in this case. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company, in its advertisements, referred to by the respondents,use the word "connection" in its commer cial sense. Admitting this particular connection to be a commercial connection, ttlll, if it be not "as favora ble a connection as that made with" the New York and Erie Railroad, it is not such a connection as is con templated by the sth section of the Meadville charter. and if it be not such a connection it is not a lawful con nection. Dlr. Gibbons next discussed the validity of the lease between the parties and he referred to the various acts of assembly authorizing such contracts. • These acts should beread together. The first act authorizes com panies which connect to make contracts by which the cars of the one company may run upon the road of the other. The second act codatrues this act of Mr to mean a grant of authority from one company is lease its road to another company, and a grant to the lessee of the right to fix the rate of tolls upon the property leased. The actor 1861, which extends the provisions of these two acts to railroads connected directly or oy by means of intervening railroads. Under these acts the Western Ceotral Railroad Company has become a party to this contract jointly with the Atlantic and Great Western Railway Company. It has been shown that the Western Cen tral Railroad Company has no existence outside of the act by which it was created; that itvwus no railroad; that it has never attempted the comtruction of a rail road, and there has been, up to the present day, no organization of the company except so tar aa that may be inferred from the fact that there is attached to the . contract a • seal of a Company and the name of a gentleman represented to be the President of the Company. Then by what authority can the Western Railroad Company enter Into any contract or lease with O. e Catawissa Railroad Company. from which, even if, this road was con structed, it is separated by a distance of more than one hundred miles. The argument of Mr. Gibbons was not closed when our report closed. SINGULAR DEATHS. —Two peculiar deaths occurred eight days ago, at Harpeth river, near Nashville, where a railroad train was thrown from the track. T. S. Woodbury, road master, in the baggage car, was dashed down, and a metallic coffin fell upon and crushed his skull. A poor negro wonian sitting by a stove, had it thrown on her, creaking her ribs, and was literally baked and burned to death by it before it could be taken off. A dozen others were hurt.
