Page, who commanded the United States steamer Water Witch, and by order of the Gorernment, made an extended and very successful exploration of this important river. The attention of the Gevernosont ofebi3 U. States Lae, only*Within a comparatively few years, been properly directed to the value of explorations and geographical investigation with reference to the increasing and now vast commerce of our country. This descrip tion of operations has long been held to be of the most vital importance, by the powers of Europe, and in no inconsiderable measure, the wealth and commercial ascendency of Great Britain . aro to be traced to this policy. From the time of Capt. Cook, and even to data from a previous era to the present day, the naval explorations Made under the aus• pices of the British Government have been of the most extensive character, and ba'vo been made in almost all parts of the world. Peo ple, liefore almost unknown to civilized men, have been visited, treaties entered into, and i.ew markets opened for commercial enteprise, and a high and perhaps the most lasting fame has been awarded by the whole world, for those minions: of peace and amity. The reader of the voyages of Drake and Cook, of Wilkes or Perry, of Ross or Franklin, will not feel his interest at all lessened by the consideration that thew were arsstntially rtimMerthai in their objects and . consequences. The Uuited States has cot been behind oth er-nations in this impOrtant Auxiliary to the march of civilization.. Numerous expeditions have been organized and have .completed their proposed business with e great success, and have. added lustre to the National char acter. With a vast extent of preciously un explored territory, these explorations have ne cessarily been for much the , greater part, per formed by land expeditions. But the naval department has been by no means idle, and one of the most important of services of this description, to which wewilude, has just been completed by the squadron under command of Capt. Page. ,The River La Plata and its tributaries, amongst which is the river Parana, were thor oughly explored and surveyed, and were as cended to the astonishing distance of 2;000 miles from 'the ocean. The entire countries on their banks in.-.lu,iies the hithcitv little known and almost misterioussvuntry of Par aguay, were completely explored and a synop riis Of their commerce and resources is given in the present report. When we remind our readers that among, the products of those countries are classed many of.the richest pro ducts of the n3ine—many of the most itnpdr rant of tire medicines known, that. they abound in cattle to such an amazing extent as to be almost, capable of furnishing the entire world with material for the currier and the indis pensable products of his art; that a vast number of woods rarely seen as yet by the cabinet maker, are produced abundantly in those *forest., that in short all the inducements to commercial intercouse and most valuable accessories to the good of society are to be found in the countries visited, the importance of this expedition • and its probable results may be e , tirnated. T he tea of esz Civil., or diet in all the countries of South America, is no* attracting much attention in Europe, and eery probably will become an article of t l extensive exporiation.. From the city of As cension alouelit is exported mainly to other States of South America largely, the Val ue in' 1854 reaching t 252,489. The com mercial investigations by Capt. Pages' expe dition, are 'irf the most valuable description. In geographical science and - matters of general interest, this expedition has also pro duced a vast accession of information. For the first time, accurate surveys were made, and the vourees of rivers and positions ,of towns, in some cases containing large pope -1 lations, carefully ascertained. The climate, 1 customs of the people, diseases, in fact, no 1 matter of general interest has been neglected. No less than sixty-six medical plants, used by the people of Paraguay, were obtained and- brought home in safety. The superior quality of the tobacco grown in those count tries is alluded to. ; 4.104 information was obtained relating to the curions and almost unknown tribes of •Aborigines which inhabit the countries of the interior of South America.' Twice the expedition was attacked' by hostile Indians, fighting on horseback, armed with spears.---- Large collections in •natural history were se cured and brought borne in safety. We hope to see the very Lnportant results of this expedition published at an early peri red by the authority of the United States,and venture to say that such a contribution to commercial, geographical and general infor- Mation wilt bare very rarely been made by any government. e Next Governor. c `The prominent candidates t Governor are Hon.,Wm.

The Speaker and Clerk took their seats. 'At this time Mr. Bridges, the clerk of-the former House, made his rppearance and declared himself the pre siding officer of the Rouse until it was regu larly organized, and protested against the pro ceedings orthe members in electing a Speak erand other officers. The members paid very little attention:to 'Lin:lL—inasmuch they had an Intimation of the course he intended Pur suing—and went on with the business. The Speaker then direhted the Clerk pro tem; to call the roll of the House, and see how many members were present. Mr. Bridges again protested, called the Speaker to order, declat.- ed himself the presiding officer, and demanded that the members'address him. The Speaker, several times, called Mr. Bridges to order, and Mr. Bridges agaiti called the Speakerito order. Every one began to be somewat ex cited at this stage of thel proceedings.

Mr. Greathouse, Sergearit-at-Arms, walked up to Mr. Bridges, and politely infottned bin that he was directed to show him out. Bridge's told him to keep his hands off, or he would get hurt. Greathouse took him by the cold lar, when Bridges.itruck him, and then com'r , menced the scene.. They clinched, while many of the members made up to the scene of action to assist the B.:rgeant in the dis charge of his duties.. After some considerable wrestlinix, knock; ing over Chairs. ch ctc, inkctnnac, mc.n., anti things generally, Mr. Bridges was got out with his coat "shockingly torn." • Five or six Assistant Sergeant-at-Arms were then ap pointed to keep order, and the House pro 7 ceeded to business. After the Members had been sworn in, the House adjourned until three o'clock this afternoon. This is one of the most disgraceful affairs that ever occurred in . our State; and by far this most impudent: Such a thing As.ilie old Speaker organizing . the new House of Representatives was never before heard of in this State, and Mr. Midges himself knew', that he had no such authority; for he himself had been appointed, two years ago Cletk pro tem pore, and after the House was organized be was elected Clerk for the session.

It has been claimed. i, Greeley that it was the P. M.s' duty to di rect all snch packages indivivuallv—the.list of names being furnished—thus saving th publisher a large expense which is groun out of Postmasters and their clerks - . , The burthen has become so great as to lead offi r cials to enquire for instructions from the Post Office Department. The result we cop. from the Plaindealer. "Greeley still persists in sending his papens unmarked to his 170,000 Western subscri ; bets, relying on Postmasters to do this work for him gratituously, thus saving him a east amount of clerk hire per year, which other clerks have to pay. The Post Master General has decided that it is no part of a Post Masi tars' duty to write the names of subscribers upon papers sent them for delivery, and they are forbidden so to do wltenever it.conflicts with official duty which in all cases it mutt so do.. It is an idle plea which some Post Masters make, that when a Mail arrives they can lay aside the Tribune until other custom err are waited upon, then write on and de liver them 'Avithout Wringing upon their le. l gitimate ditties. It is not true. Subscribers to-the Tribune will have their papers just. as soon as any one else, and their natnes must. first be written or else there will be confut. gap . in the delivery. It is clearly the duty of Post Masters to return all such papers to the office of publication 'lor properdirection.
