NEW PUBLICATIONS.
The Univereily.—This is-a monthly maga
mine, ofv which the first number has just been
received. It ,devoted to the interests of the
13 stiversity of Pennsylvania. and promises to
be' a valuable aid , to that venerable institution.
The list of contaihutors contains the names of
genre dour leading literary men. The pres
ent number opens with an interesting biogra
phy,by provost Stillk of the. Rev. Mr. Smith,
whom the writer regards as the true
founder of the Institute. This is followed by
au article on th* antiquities of Bloomerism,
by Professor Homy Morton. It shows a.
considerable amount of classical reading, and
is All of originality and quiet humor. "What
is Philology," by Professor McElroy, is well
written and instructive, and a short poem,
"In 'War Time,!'. by Ba;• is excellent in
rhythm,but not verycomprehonsible as regards
point. "Types of the Devil" is a clever article
by Emil Budd, Jr., and a notice of Dr.
Augustus Schleicher, by Professor Oswald
Seidensticker, will interest many who are
curious about the subject of philology. The
editorials are well written, but reveal a want
of harmony in the two literary societies con •
meted With the University which we sincerely
hope may soon be remedied by the good sense
and "esprit de corps" of the students. Alto
gether the first number of the magazine
gives promise of good things, to come.
A HISTORICAL DISCOVERY
Slave Slave Mace ln Slassaehusens
an Old Dominant.
The forthcoming number of Mr. Dawson's
.Historical. Magazine will contain a paper
by Mr, George H. Moore, librarian of the
New York Historical Society, on "Slave
Marriages in Massachusetts," in which an
interesting discovery of an old manuscript is
announced.
Mr. Moore begins by citing the contro
versy which occurred in Massachusetts in
1748, concerning slave marriages. He says :
"The Rev. Noah Hobart, in his `Serious
Address to the Episcopal separation in New
England,' published in 1748, challenged the
want of flexibility in the forms of the Liturgy
of the Church of England, as tending 'to in
troduce Irreligion and Profaneness'—espe
cially in the use of the Office of Matrimony
for marriages contracted between slaves. *
• • In reply to Hobart, Dr. John Beach
took up this alleged source of wickedness, re
sponding in substance that as a slave was
capable of being made free; and so of having
property in a large estate, there was `no pro
phaneness in the man's solemnly promising
to Make his wife copartner with him in an
his worldly goods, if ever it should please
God to bestow an estate upon him.'—
Calm and Dispassionate Vindication,
tfcc., p. 39.
"Whatever may be thought of the state of
the argument between these reverend cham
pions, there can be no doubt that in a com
munity like that of Massachusetts during the
time when slavery prevailed there, some
thoughtful and considerate men must have
felt the absurdity of solemn religious sanction
for such connections, governed as they were
by the humor or interest of masters or mis
tresses, the owners of the slaves. And in
proportion to that reverence for marriage and
the sanctity, of the marriage -tie which has
always been credited to Puritan orthodoxy,
there. must have been some repugnance to
profaning the solemn rites by which 'God's
first ordinance, confirmed by Christ's first
miracke'A has always been guarded in all
Christian countries. The simplest forms in
rise for such a ceremony were profaned, when
mutual pledges of enduring love and fidelity
were given and taken by those who were
liable to separation at any time at the will of
their owners."
While admitting that marriage in Massa
chusetts, for many years after the first settle
ment, was regarded as a mere civil contract
entered into before a magistrate, Mr. Moore
contends that it is no less certain that the
prayers proper for the occasion, which were
made by the magistrate upon giving the cove
nant to the parties, were as sacred to the
Puritans and no more to be lightly profaned
than the solemn ritual of their fathers, which
they bad rejected as savoring of Popery and
elevating marriage into a sacrament;and when,
in the next generation, the ministers began
to assume the practice of performing the mar
riage ceremony, there can be no doubt that
jregarded their simple service as substan
y holy and deserving all the reverence
ever'claigieci for any Protestant ceremony of
the-kind.'
'He continues: i_
"How,,then, wasit that •Parson Hobart;
in 1748, could put his Episcopal brother ,to
the blush for profaning the marriage service
in the manner alleged, unless the more nu
cotninodating spirit of his own: Sect . enabled
him to adaptits formulas at . discretion to the
cases which came before him? .The inference
is obvious, and Sustains the tradition that
in Massachusetts the marriages of slaves,
while they were unquestionably more formal
in some cases.than merely 'jumping a-broom
stick,' had in reality little more practical sig
nificance in their obligations, limited as these
were in extent and duration by the necessary
conditions of Fervitude. This tradition is now
corroborated by contemporary documentary
evidence, which proves beyond doubt that the
kind'of wedlock in which Sambo and Dinah,'
Pompey. and Chloe, became nominally hus
bands and wives under' Jilassaahusetts laws,
was very uncertain and precarious, and its
religious celebration in very truth a 'solemn
farce.'
"One of the most accomplished historical
scholars in the country, Mr. J. Wingate
Thornton, of Boston, has recently discovered
the form of negro marriage prepared and
used by the Reverend Samuel Phillips, of
Andover, Massachusetts, whose ministry
there, beginning in 1710 and ending with his
death in 1771, was a prolonged and eminently
distinguished serviet of more than half the
eighteenth century. His immediate successor
was the Reverend Jonathan French (1772-
1bOU) Ili the family of whose son Mr. Thorn

N. IL, on the 31st of December, 1868. lam
indebted to his liberal courtesy for the oppor
tunity to make use of it at the present time.

FAILANCIZ.
The Approaching; French Elections.
[From the Pall Ball Gazette, Fob. 2/1
There are already symptoms that the elec
toral struggle which will probably take place
in France about the month of April next will
be conducted very much like our own, at
least as regards the rough , work attendant on
a personal canvass. When the suffrage was
limited in France the position of candidate
was not altogether a sinecure. The most in
fluential portion of the constituency had to
be visited, except in the case of the voters se
lecting some popular statesman; for example;
Royer Collard was returned for seven col
leges without ever leaving Paris or appearing
once on the hustings. With universal But;
frage, however, all personal canvassing came
to an end. The change was so abrupt that
the voters did not appreciate the power
placed in their hands. The local wire-pullers
or the government selected a candidate and
the constituents voted blindfold. This was
the rule throughout nearly the whole of
France, the great cities alone giving any evi—
dence of independence. A few placards and
circulars were all that was required, and till
some months ago it was unlawful to hold a
meeting. These happy days for the French
deputy appear to be rapidly vanishing. There
is a young Republican element eager for ad
mission to the Corps Legislatif,and confident
in success.
A year ago half the electors in France were
ignorant of everything the government de
sired should be kept secret, and the peasant
seldom saw any paper but that authorized by
hie Prefect. Now he can indulge his fancy
and choose his own line of politics after
studying the views of all parties. Whatever
may be the result of the forthcoming elections
in France it is certain that the candidates will
not be accepted on the same eatiy terms for
themselves as before; they will have to sac
rifice time and show themselves if they de
sire to secure seats. Even •now, while the
present Parliament is holding its last session,

by various sections opppsett to personal

where the government candidatelsltho strong
to be resisted single-handed;.the differences
between' other parties shell ,14 - effaced, that
the legitimist, Orleanist, dernociat'and repub
lican shall join to overthrow the imperialist
candidate. Fortunately for the 'Oovernment;
this plan, which has M. Prevpst-Paradol for
one of its advocates,ia vigorously opposed by
a portion of the democratic press,
The chiefs of the opposition appear to think
that they will have .fiftY seats m ' the nest :
Parliament, and that , there will bea
,great
number of independent Members' who will
form a diem pargi favorable to the present
dynasty in connection with liberal measures.
A large number of opposition candidates will
take the field. Several men who hitherto
lived in what may be termed voluntary exile
are coming back to France and addressing
constituencies. For 'instance, M. Pascal Do
prat, one of the members of the Provisional
governMent, has left SPain and appeared in
the South, where he has met with a reception
which leads him to reckon on being sent up
to the Parliament. The government has at
its disposal a vast 'organization; all the
bribery and corruption in the shape of public
work dangled before the eyes of submissive
constituencies are in the hands of the authori
ties, who, however, will have a hard battle to
fight against not merely the Democrats but
the "ancient partie," the protectionists and
other lukewarm friends. ; •
Curious scenes at Bryan, Sight Hun
dred Miles West elf Omaha.
"Carleton" writes to the .Boston Journal
the following account of the present terminus
of the Union Pacific Railway—the town of
Bryan, eight-hundred miles west of Omaha:
The United States at the present time can
exhibit one thing not 'to be found in any
other country—a Pacific Railroad town. By
that we do not mean ,a town like Omaha,
which is an old established city,* but one of
the mushroom places which grow up in a
night, last a week or two, and then are torn
down and moved on to another logality. The
railroad is pushed forward so ',fast:and the
terminus changed so often,
,that , ti town only
gets under way before it is pulled down and
sent forward to a new place.: Yon can find
houses at the present terminuSißryan, eight
hundred miles west of Omaha, which have
been put up and taken down lifteettor twenty
times. The people 'who Hire in them are
American Arabs. They are not only nomads,
ever on the move,•,but , they„, can steal and
plunder as adroitly and with araittle compunc
tion of conscience as their .hrethren the.
Bedouins. Civilization and-Ciiiiiitianity have
not refined or softened theirdnliumati nature.
Let me not be understoortto sarthat evert
man in one of these railroad towns is a vil
lain, or a blackleg; on the contrary, honest
Men are to be found who,, after bearing pa
tiently with ruffians till Patience ceases to
be a virtue, and there being no law or order,
or organised society,, take matters into their
own hands and become a terror to evil-doers.
When some flagrant crime has been com
mitted—murder or stesnisinition—these law
abiding men purify the place by hanging the
murderers to the nearest tree, or if no tree is
near, they extemporize a gallows by tilting
up the tongue of a wagon, and sending the
ruffian into eternity before the" body of his
victim is cold. Such sudden punishment is
like lightning on a sultry day—pin - filling and
invigorating.
It was late in the evening when we entered
the new town of Bryan, then about two
Weeks old. We rode up a wide street, bright
with lights flaming in the windows of the
restaurants and Wool* each shopman and
barkeeper trying by arrangement of kerosene
lamps and colored glasses to outshine his
neighbor in his endeavors to attract a crowd.
"There was a sound of revelry,"and Bryan
had gathered the largest part of her popula
tion for a high time. There was such dancing
and fiddling, such drinking of healths,
shuffling of cards and rattling of dice, as we
never saw before. From the dance saloons
came the sound of hurdy-gurdies, violins and
banjoes, the rattle and clatter of the double
shuffle and plantation breakdown,. mingled
with shouts •and oaths, the jingling of glasses,
as the rude inen.wild with whisky, and ruder
women, decked in silks, satins, flounced and
rallied, and glittering with trumpery jewelry,
went whisking in each other's arms round
the room.
The railroad company have laid out the
town, and are selling lots at high prices. Of
course, these lots will have very little value
after the road is opened, but the town is built
as if there was a lithited amount of hind avail
able for a city. The shops and hohses are
all crowded together, and if a fire were to
break out on the windward side all would go.
Here is a town two weeks old, with a
population of five thousand ! On every side
we hear the sound of 'taws 'and hammers.
Here is a man putting up his shop, which he
has just brought from the late terminus at
Green River. The boards are all numbered
like those of a window shutter. He will have
it complete in an hour or two, his goods in
and ready for trade.
Here is a German and hie wife unpacking
the chests which contain mugs and glasses.
In a few minutes he will have a lager-beer
saloon in operation.
Yonder a Yankee has established a bakery,
building his oven of bricks made on the spot.
He is selling hot gingerbread and seed cakes,
and has a large pile of bread in one corner,
and pumpkin pies on his shelves.
The saloons during the day are not much
patronized, but are thronged at night. It is
n lively town. The whole population live
on a small territory, and are dependent
wholly upon the railroad for supplies. Were
the cars to stop running the community
would be brought to the , verge of starvation
in a week; but that contingency is not thought
of. and this crowd of railroad followers are
here to gather up the spoils which pass from
the treasury of the company through the
workmen into their bands.

Hair Vigor,
For the-Renovation of the Hair
The , Great Desideratum of the'Age.
A dressing w - hic
is at onco agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving' the
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color
and thc gloss and
freshness of youth.
Thin hair is thick
ened, falling hair. checked, 'and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore the
hair where the follicles are destroyedy
or the glands atrophied and decayed.
But such es remain can be saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the. hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free.
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous and.
injurious to the hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
longer on the bait., giving it a rich
glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.

ouch . other State or foreign government, or of

and the Berne are hereby repealed.
The bill was referred to its appropriate Com
anittee.
Afternoon Bession.—The bill providing for the
preservation of game was passed; also, the one
authorizing appeals to the Supreme Court In
change of charters of incorporation.
Evening Session. —The joint resolution ratifying
the fifteenth amendment to the Federal Consti
tution was taken up.
Mr. Burnett (Dem.) commenced the discussion,
taking the ground that the question should be
+submitted to the people, and that if they voted
itifavor of it, he would, as a good Democrat, be
-satisfied. Congress bad no power to pass such
an amendment, nor the Legislature to ratify it,
because such power was never delegated by the
people, the source of all power.
Mr. &aright (Dem.) said negro suffrage is about
to be established by a flank movement, under the
direction of the military chieftain at the White
Rouse. He proceeded to show that the Four
teenth and Fifteenth Amendments were antago
nistic, and that no party but the Republican
, could attempt to indorse such inconsietency.
Mr. McCandless (Dem.) said that he considered
this the greatest political iniquity ever attempted
to be Inflicted upon a people. It was no wonder
that Republican Senators were appalled by the'
Black Idol they had brought here, and asked why
they did not submit the question to the people
when such an important change in the organic
law was contemplated. He concluded by show
ing that there would be a direct conflict between
the Federal and State Constitutions.
Mr. Davis (Dem.) said it was evident that the
Republican Senators were prompted by a pur
pose to abstain from speeches, and it was proper
that they should, for men committing crime want
to do it secretly and rapidly. Democratic Sena
tors scorn the terms offered by their opponents,
allowing only three hours to debate a resolution
to ratify a change in the Federal Constitution,
when a change in the State Constitution requires
the consideration of two Legislatures and the
vote of the people. The Republicans were afraid
to submit the question to the people, for they well
knew what the result would be.
Mr. Lowry (Rep.) commenced his remarks by
readingAmortion of hit spe;ecb, made some years
ago, in reply , to Mr. Clymer, relative to negro
suffrage In the District of Columbia. Ho then
said that in all moral and religious questions there
is no reason to submit to the voje of the people;
for. as he had said:on a previous,occasion, there
were more votes in'aliarrel of Whisky than in the
ten commandments.
He declared that the amendment was the sore
tray to save the-country from the gulf of perdi
tion, and to do Justice to the African race; which,
by it, would be recreated. By it, too, the crown
of thorns would be taken from the loyal men of
the South...
, -
Be deemed '; it 'The height of injustice t o . forc
the n egio vote on_the South, and dealno to re
ceive it in Pennsylvania.
Mr. Wallace, (Dem.) denounced the Reptlblkon
Senators for obeying the will of their cau
cus, as determined . at a night meeting, instead of
heeding the viewtt orfour hundred thousand con
stituents on a question that concerns every citi
zen of the present and of unborn generations.
He, then,. at length. proceeded to show that the
sovereignty of the Republic war" not in the State,
or in the United States, but In the people; and
that tbe power of sovereignty was not in the
Legislature, but in the people, and to them alone,
should this amendment be submitted. HO ar
gued further that the elevation of the black man
to suffrage was the degradation of the white
man, and was urged only because the new votcs
were a political necessity.
During the discussion of the Constitutional
Amendment, the Senate Chamber was densely
crowded with citizens, strangers and members of
the House. The Republican Senators, except
Lowry,gcnerally refused to speak upon the ques
tion, and it was understood that they took this
course by the advice of a Republican caucus
held last evening. •
The agreement had originally been to come to
a vote at ball past nine o'clock, but when' that
time arrived the speakers were allowed to con
tinuo. At eleven o'clock the vote Nes' taken, and
the joint resolution was passed to second reading
by a party vote of 18 Republican yeas to 15 Dem
ocratic nays.
The bill comes up on final passage to-morrow.
Adjourned.
idoesn.—A Senate bill, as follows, was passed:
"Tbat so much of the fourth section of the act
of 2d February, 1854, as prohibits any member of
Councils, during the term for which he shall be
elected,bolding any office or employment created
or provided for of a municipal character, be and
the same is hereby repealed. That no Canned
man shall hereafter hold any office or employ
ment in the choice of eald Councils during the
term for which he shall have, been elected, nor
bold any city or county office in the choice of the
people while serving as member."
Senate bill exempting the properties of the
Young Men's Christian Association, St. Joseph's
Hospital and Penn Widows' Asylum from taxa
tion, was passed.
A divorce bill (McGill vs. McGill) was con
sidered, and a discussion took place about the
propriety of baying the testimony read, It being
of a scandalous character. It was finally read,
but before acting upon the bill the Rouse ad
journed,
Ertning Session.—The following House bills
were passed : Urging Congress not to grant any
land subsidies; authorising the appointinent,of
Commissioners to survey the southern boundary
of the State.
II he internal Revenue Department.
Mr. Reines was visited by his clerks yesterday
afternoon, and a series of resolutions was pre
sented to hint, accompanied by a speech from ttie
Deputy Commissioner. The following are the
resolutions :
We, the officers and clerks of the Bureau of In
ternal Revenue, unaelmonsly adopt the following
resolutions, as expressing oar feelings and senti
ments towards the Honorable Edward Ashton
Roll fps; upon the occasion.. of his , resignation - of
the office of Commissioner of Internal Revenue .
Rooked, Iteat the integrity, fidelity, ability and
untiring devotion to the dutieti of his office which
Mr. Rollins has exhibited, have inspired in us
feelings of profound respect for his sterling
qualities as a man and an officer, and that we
especially admire the geniality of disposition
which he has uniformly manifested towards us
amid all the cares and perplexities of a difficult
and burdensome office, held much of the time
and( r peculiarly trying eircumstencea.
Reathrect, That we part with him with. sincere
regret, arid tender tdm our grateful acknowlede
meets for his uniform kindness and ,
courtesy in
his official and personal relations with us during
his long connection with the office as Cashier,
Deputy Commissioner and Commissioner.
It , solred, That our best wishes accompany him
in his retirement from the public responsibility
which he has fearlessly encountered and faith
fully discharged, and as a final expression of our
nest wishes, we oust he may long live to add a
new field of labor and usefulness to the noble
reputation he has already achieved. _1
The lady clerks connected with the office having
heard the foregoing resolutions, presented by the
gentlemen, not only desire to express their
entire concurrence in the sentiments therein ex
pressed. but also do hereby resolve, that, while - {
they thus acknowledge their appreciation of the
uniform courtesy, kindness and sympathy of their
departing chief, they would not forget that his •
face is turned in a direction which invites peace,
quietness and repose. Hence to their expression
of cherished esteem, of mingled sorrow and grate
ful acknowledgments, they Would add their best
wishes for his future prosperity and happiness.
Resolred, That the foregoing resolutions be en
grossed, and after signature by the officers and
clerks of the Bureau, be suitably framed for pre
sentation to Mr. Rollins.
i Signed I J. DLELE, Chairman.
A. R. Jorresose Secretary.
In response to the compliment, Mr. Rollins
made the following speech:
My friends, I thank you for your kindly feelings
towards me,and the warm and generous language
of Its expression. The true quality of apparent
friendship is best tested when those professing it
are about to separate, and the approval or disap
proval of one's own household. or of those with
whom he has been long and intimately associ
ated, has a deeper significance than the hollow
words of strangers.
It is almost six years since I came to this office,
and almost unknown to every one of you. Your
number has increased with the necessity of the
1
e vice; some have found other and more desires
G employment elsewhere; a few have been re- .
iced by the action of tbo department; some whom
we much deplore have died; but the faces of many
whom I first saw .un the morning of the 9th of
April, 1863, have grown more and more familiar
and dear to me down to the present hour. What
ever measure of success attended the discharge
of my duties is mainly attributed to the counsel,
the fidelity, and the labor of the officers and clerks
associated with me in their discharge. The office
of Commissioner, as suggested in your resolu
tions, has for the last two or three years
been crowded with annoyances and embarrass- 1
ments, as well as responsibilities. The in
terests of the revenue have been . sserificed,
that an unworthy policy of reconstruction
might be foisted upon an unwilling people.
Bad men and bid women have controlled Presi
dential nominations, while the advice of worthy
and trusted leaders of both the - great political
parties of the country have been disregarded.
The office of Commissioner has been robbed of
all power over its subordinates, and the Treasury
Departmeni, in all of its ramifications, been re
garded as a great place for the distribution of
rewards rather than an institution for the proper
collection and disbursement of the national reve
nue. Was it not for your encouragement and
your support, in spite of all the wishes of good
men and of my own conviction of duty, sick at.
heart and weary from excessive toil, I must have
retired from this place before the appointment of
a successor approved by the Senate.
Through your aid I have been enabled to carry
the office through the troubles and perils of the
last administration, and• deliver it over to one
whom I have known for years only to esteem,for
whom I proposed long since to retire, and who
I know enjoys your confidence and that of the
country.' The office, as I have reasons from
President Grant for believing, will now be re
clothed with the power it once exercised, and the
country has abundant reason for believing that
the expectation of pardons will not here
after stimulate violations of the revenue
law under the new administration.
Under the now administration I shall look for
less fraud, more revenue, and the restored confi
dence of the people in the institutions of our
government. The future is veiled to us, but
though our pathways shall seldom again pass
each other in this world, if we shall listen to the
admonitions of conscience, and the teachings of
inspirations, heroically the while doing with our
might what our hands find to do, when our
journeyings are all ended, and the veil is lifted,
wo shall be together, and be at peace. God grant
' that this may be so.

volving the admission of Senators: the Tenure
of-Office bill; the redistribution of national cur
rency, giving twenty millions to the South and
West; the reorganization of the judiciary, which
provides for the appointment of an additional
associate justice; the bill for the removal of po
litical disabilities and the bill for the enforcement
of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitu
