FROM WASHINGTON.
Correspondence of the Morning:rest.
WASIIINGTON COT, 'Feb. 27, 1847
I. HaTer, Ley
Dear Sir-- .. F0 legislation of special interest to
the country has been decided in either house of
Congress for_almost two, weeks past. Yet much
time has been consumed - in the manufacture of,
u Buncombe' s t rechei for home consumption. — a
branch of political industry most vigorously prose
cuted at the seat of our national legislature.
The lower House has reported and passed see•
oral bills of a private and public :character within
the last two days. The bill making appropriations
for the army exceeds 'Thirty millions of dollars:
The River and Harbor bill was sent to the Senate,
The provisions.of which are said to be exempt from
those' objectionable' features of last year's bill,
_which caused the exercise of the veto power. The
bill provides for an expenditure of forty thousand
aboeithe Falls of the Ohio, and two hundred and
fifty thousand ; dollars foi below the Falls. The'
debate on this bill about constitutional powers was
- the Most,frothy and absurd. For instance : some
gentlemen would vote for a light house as consti
tutional, and yet the same statesmen, or represek
' tatives would not, on grounds of constitutional
scruples, sustain a measure intended to furnish
". - means for the - removal of those rocks or the im
provement of those harbors pointed out by a light
house
Mr. Crittenden reported, yesterday, a bill for
the relief of the suffering people of Ireland and,
Scotland. The provisions of the act are, to ap
propriate five hundred thousand - dollars to be ex
pended under direction of the. President, in the par•
chase Of provisions ;'and, arid to send the bounty of our
government to.the shores of the sufferers in a ship
of war—bne of our national instruments of death
and terror to an enemy, and to others a messenger
of friendship and liberality. The address of Mr.
Crittinden was of 'the most spblime and impres
.
sive character.
The civil and diplomatic, or as it is termed, the
general appropriation, for defraying the expenies
of the, government, was finally passed this dity!:—
_ An amendment was added to it in'the Senate, by.
Mr. Evans, of the Finance Committee, for an ep
propriation of fifty thousand dollars. to enable •the I
President to appoint commissioners to negotiate,
peace with Mexico.. The gentleman by. whom
the money was asked, said he had been instructed
by the Secretary of State to make the demand,
and.that, in his opinion, the proposition 'was preg.
want with: blessings of peace and amity between
our country and Mexico. The amendment receiv.
ed, as it shoul I, the unanimous vote of the Senate.
The bill to provide additional officers under; the
ten regiment bill, is pending in Senate, with others I
of importance to the public service ; all of which I
'must be postponed to enable " President-makers "
to 'deliver addresses for electioneering purposes.—
The " Three - bill/ion so termed, has been the
subject of discussion for about two weeks, and up
on that measnre, the campaign of '45, for the
Succession, is being fully developed.
•• Mr. Sevier, on last Tuesday, gave notice to seri
"ators on both sides of the phamber, that the inte.
rests of the country. demanded prompt action or
the passage of the bill—the President had . done
his duty to the nation, in asking means to enable
him to bring the war to an end, with honor to our
flag; but, the Senate were slow to act, until - the
cries of widows and orphans had filled every cor
ner of our land. Upon senators should rest. the
responsibility of the waste of blood and treasure
incident to delays, occasioned by political speech
es, having no reference but to matters'intended
to settle relative claims of candidates fur the
next Presidency. khe Senate, by a vote of 27 to
23, decided this afternoon that the debate on this
bill shalrbe continued till Monday next, for the
accommodation of Mr. Dayton, a violent partisan.
There is something singular in the postponement
—the like was done last session; when the " Two
ilfillion bill " expired under the operation of a
'Whig speech, on the last day of the session. It is
said the Senate have resolved to defeat the bill as
on a former occasion. I cannot believe so.
I have found but one opinion among intelligeni
persons in relation to . the further prosecution - Of the
war successfully. Mr. Benton's doctrine, Or pro
position, to levy cosTnintriows upon the Country
occupied by our aims, would unite the People of
Mexico in a demand on their government •to ter
minate hostilities and sue for peace. While our
army pays in gold and silver, for supplies::furnish
ed by the people of Mexico, it is manifest,. the war
must be protracted. If our army create a market,
for the land-holders of Mexico, it would be against
the policy of savages not to trade with an' enemy
who conferred benefits and blessings. About three
fourths of the people of Mexico hare no interest
in the concerns of government. They are devo
ted to wild sports, and wedded to rural amuse
ments. Those people care little who shall direct I
the administration of state affairs, so that they are ] ,
"permitted to enjoy their " Rockets—fire-works-- ,
bell ringing—bull fights and lasso spOrti." The
other fourth of that people composer the wealthy,
consisting of merchants and the clergy. Of this
class will be found a large English interest. Let
the system of eadribulions be proclaimed and you
- have_the masses of the people demanding and sue
ingfor peace. .
The lower house is now in session, at '8 o'clock
I'. M. , They have under consideration Mr. M'.. ,
Kay's new tariff, for war revenue. At every step,
line by line, it meets with opposition. My ills
• pre.ssion is, that as the bill came from the Ways
and Means committee, swill it pass. And in
anticipation, I. venture to say, iron, cotton, coal,
, salt, wollens, 'spirits, silks and sugars, will he tax
- ed. Tea and Coffee doubtful. A proposition •to
tax all goverrment officers 25 per cent= on their
salaries was rejected. The house, it is supposed,
will remain in session till midnight, The Senate
have just taken up private bills. and among others
the bffroffereiLby Mr. Crittenden is now under
discussion. Mr. Niles and Mr. Badger, to their
ev
, Hosting degradition, have opposed the propo
se relief. The measure will go before the coun
tr and the world, with the votes of all other Sena-
Mrs in favor of humanity and the claims of a corn-.
mon itncestry.
Tam admonished to dose; the mail goes to Bal

give you. It is reported that Mr. Packenhatn, the

The reconsider of J4ge, Foster's nomination
'was disosed of to-day'; Mr. Gibbons made a
highly labored speech against the nominee, during
which Mr; Foster's character was extended to the
gaze of the Senate, and the. man who, is already
agonized enough by the cruel rack of partisan hos
tility, was made to feel the double blow, of inca
'pea), alledged by some pretending to have been '
his friends. When the Honorable Speaker had
finished, Mr. Black replied in one of the strongest
speeches I vier listened to, its manliness and cour
, tesy contrasting with the Violent and personal as
saults of the other. Mr. Black remarked that the nem. mm•

The Hduse on Saturday last, went into Com
mittee of the Whole,:..and proceeded to the consid•
eration of the bill amendatory to the present tariff
act. This bill proposed, during the continuance
of the war with MeXico, to impose a duty of 20
per cent on tea and coffee.—to increase the duty
10 per cent on loaf and refined sugar, coal, bar
iron manufactured by rolling, pig iron, round iron,

iron, hoops, iron, band or scroll iron, casement
rods, slit, rolled or hammered, wood screws (ot
iron,) spikes, cut or wrought, and white or red

market and subject to entry for ten years, and not
more than fifteen years, may be entered at one

' Various amendments were proposed, and when
the Committee rose, a substitute to the bill was
reported to the 'House, with the section to tax . tea
and coffee stricken out; and silks, linens, spirits,
cordials, wines, segars, wool, woolen and worsted

the 10 per cent. increase was proposed.

the bill, and it was rejected,—yeas 78, nays 136.

In this age of Book making—so many politica
ions are thrown off by steam, and w•e are so op
pressively taxed by, all sorts of levies and tempta
tions—that ou‘first impulse is to resie.hall expen
ditures that we can avoid. This is especially true
as to Law Books. The tools of the trade, if all
that are offered were purchased, would come to
more than the revenue of the profession. Some
selection being strictly necessary, any notice that
tends to limit purchasers to works really useful
and valuable, may be of generatiervice.
In this spirit, the work above entitled, may be
well recommended. There are more faithless or
unfortunate Guardians and Trustees from want of
knowledge, than from want of integrity or inten
tion. This book will be found of large pecuniary I
value to the man of , property, or of business, who
is settling the affairs of deceased friends, and try.

his own house iO order, before bowing to the inex
orable mandate, all men it is appointed once to

directions therein set forth. If the unskilled are
determined to be guilty of that most miserable
specimen of thankless penury—Writing his own
will—let him first buy this Book. He may then
bequeath less of his hard earnings to astute attor.

THE PENNSYLVANIA HOSPITAL
We have one Hospital in successful operation
under the simerintebdance of the Sisters of life:Ty;
who deserve all the credit of being the first to es-1
tablish so excellent an institution in our city. It'
should be kept forever in remembrance that the
ladies belonging to this benevolent Order were the
pioneers in this good work, and crowned their ef
forts with success. But we shall soon have anotli.
er Hospital. When those who always do the
talking had exhausted to found "the Penniylvanial
Hospital;iGsoariz BREED, Esq , one of our most i
public spirited and philanthropic citizens, eilonci
undertook the work,, and we are credibly inform
ed has succeeded beyond his most sanguine expec
lotions. Mr Breed is still receiving subscritions,
and those citizens who intend to contribute, and
have not been called on, had better now come for
ward. We understand that a gentleman residing
in Manchester, has offered Mr. B. a lot of ground
in the city of Allegheny, on condition that the
Hospital shall be erected thereon, which is said to
be worth $4,500. This is a noble offer.
GEN. TOM THUMB
This remarkable individual arrived in out city
yesterday, arid will be exhibited at the ODEON, ,
Breed's Buildings, on Friday, and•othei evenings
during the : week. He is certainly the greatest
human curiosity in the world, being lint 2 feet 8
inches high. and weighs. only 28 pounds. ile. is
considerably advance& in years, and is a man of
much intelligence. The ladies must turn out in
all their strength—he is their favorite wherever
he goes. - -.

further particulars enquire at the Prothonotary's
office.
A Hard Case.—A very clever man, a citizen
here sometimes, has a very jovial wife. She at
tends balls, and takes a little of the " oh ! be joy- 1
ful." The other night she took too much ; she
became „uproarious, and very "nocturnal in hell
vociferations "—so much so that the Husband could
find relief only in ejecting her from beneath his
roof. To do this effectually, he called upon a•
watchman, who soon repnired to the spot, and from
thence gallanted her ladyship to the region of the
Tombs. She there amused herself in the best way
she could; singing songs, and dancing.
Coming to Pittsburgh.—The Dispatch says that
the Sable Harmaniels will be in this city towards
the last of the present mont. The Telegraph says
0. S. Fowler, the PhrenologiA, designs visiting
this city for the purpose of delivering a course of
Lectures.
We understand that the Kerins are expected to

FROM MEXICO!
Advices had been received at New Orleans from
the Brazos till the 15th of February, inclusive, at
which date Gen. Scott, with four companies, was
about leaving for Tampico, to, which poinCall the
troops were embarking. Fears were entertained
at Matamoras of an attack by the. Mexicans upon
that place, ypon the withdrawal of the forces, and
the Americans were fortifying the Plaza. Col.'
Bankhead had sailed for Tampico.. The news cif
the capture of Capt. C.KClay, Maj. Gaines, and,.
, the outpost under their command, is confirmed..
The bodies of Lieuts. Blake and Chadbeuene l ari
rived at New Orleans. : ,
LATER FROM VERA CRUZ
•
Later dates from Vera Cruz bring the intelli
gence that the Mexicans, apprehensive of an -at
tack upon the city of Mexico, by Gen. , Scott, were
fortitying , all the passes leading to their capital.
Large bodies of troops were concentrating at
Jaluppa and Tula, for the purpose of retistin'g the
-advance or the AlllCliCarrOr 7 -- •
Dateslrorn Tampicci are to the 10th ult. The
Lisuisiana Volunteers, who had been wrecked on
the Ondiaka had arrived- safe, with the exception
of six who had been left upon-the road. General
Cos commanding the Mexican troops that made
the demonstration for the capture of the Louisian
ians had demanded of Col. De Russy 'their surren•'',
der, giving him a day's time to consider the prop
osition. The same night De Russy marched his
troops for Tampico without molestation from the
enemy.
The health of Tampico was good, and the num
ber of American troops there amount to seven
thousand.
The New York troops were on their vessels,
still lying off port. Most of the officers were on.

IS offered to any person Om will produce one
fourth the amount of real certificates of positive
cures in cases of CONSUMPTION or DISEASED
Lungs as DR. ROGERS , LIVERWORT •and TAR
has made in this city or any other place where it has;
been introduced. Although it has not been puffed
in 'the city papers in EDITORIAL FORM by the
PROPRIETOR for the SOLE purpose of GAIN, (is
most medicines are without regard to their worth)
vet the demand has been enormous. In the city of
Dayton alone, where this medicine has not been ad
vertised to the amount of ten dollars, we received
an order from Messrs. Ells, Claffin & Cu. to the
amount of one THOUSAND BOTTLES. And this
too, in the sainmer season, when there is compara
tively little or no demand for medicine of this char
acter.
ta"This medicine still performs CURES that seem
almost Incredible, but as they are here, and are • our
own neighbors whose testimony can be had from their
own mouths, it must convince the most sceptical of
the worth of this medicine. .
•• ••• • •
Another REMARKABLE cure of CONSUMP
TION. Mr. Gabriel Whitehead, of this city, was
reduced so low that ALL HIS FRIENDS, and even
his PHYSICIANS had given him up to DIE! ! !
MR. A. L. ScovzLL.—As 1 own my life to the use
of DR. ROGER'S LIVERWORT and TAR, I reel it
a duty, and shall without fear or delioacy give my
testimony as evidence that others who may be afflic
ted with CONSUMPTION or diseased Lungs may •
know that' this medicine' is NO HUMBUG, but is'
worth ten thousand physicians' prescriptions for the'
disease for which it is recommended.
.Last summer I was taken with a 'most DISTRES
SING COUGH, and about the first of July my Lungs
were so diseased that I bled in a short time several
quarts of blood, which rethiced 'We so low that all
my friends, and even my physicians thought 1 must
soon DIE with CONSUMPTION. My brother, how
ever, heard of sume of the wonderful cures made by
this medicine, and procured a bottle, and before I
bad taken one half bottle, it seemed to go to the very
seat of the disease and raised a LARGE QUANTITY
of MATTER and PHLEGM, and my COUGH was
stopped by a charm. I have since used some two or
three bottles, and am now able to attend to my busi
ness as well as ever.
1 feel very thankful to the inventor of this medicine,
for if it had not been for some all powerful medicine
to have raised the matter and phlegm, and healed my
lungs, I should without doubt have now been in my.
pave.
If any one will call On me on Catharine street, hal
a square belop Linn,l will give them the particulars
and refer them to numerous friends who v'sitcd
during my sickness.

Ma. A. L. Sees= :—However reluctant I have
been to permit my name to appear, attached to a cer

afflicted with diseases requiring Cough Medicines to'
state that in three particular cases of incipient CON
SUNIPTION, viz: Miss Deli, step daughter of Mr.
John Oarr officio city, a Miss Barger, sister-in-law of
Mr. V. Wunder, butcher, end Mr. R. K. Cox, one of
our City Council, that Dr. ROGERS' 'CONFOUND SYRUP
OF LIVERWORT AND TAR operated more LIRE A SPE
arc, thari any remedy of a similar character in its
operation than I have ever used in my practice. One
of the cases'ehove-. viz: Miss Belt, appeared to be
laboring under the last stage of Scorfulous Contump
tion, as pronounced by several PHYSICIANAwbo
were in attendance previous to my being celed to
treat the case 'She Is at this present time in the en
joyment of as apparently good health, and from ap
pearance, as likely to die with any other disease, as!
any other young lady of this city. As it respects the
health of the other two cases, all the threatening
premonitory symptoms seem to have subsided from
the use ofa few bottles of the Syrup above.'
