W erne strip COSGUESSIOSAL APPATBS. , A Joint Besolution was introduced in the House of Representatives, by Mr. Sogp, to au thorize the Secretary of the Interior to contract j for the purchase of. the Mount Vcrnon-estnto by | the United States. A motion was made to lay the whole subject on the table, which motion was negatived by a vote of 9C yeaß to 103 nays. The debate that followed upon tho motion to refer, indicates pretty strongly that no appropriation will bo made by Congress for sucb a purpose this session. ' To'purchase the estate on which rests the re mains of tho father of his country, and mate it public property, would seem to be n p.atriotio act; but it would establish a dangerous prece dent. That done, what shall bo said of Monti cello and Marshfield, and many other estates of distinguished Presidents and statesmen ? Wo take tho following from the Washington Qloie Important Movemext. —Wo understand tha 1 1 the Committee on Navnl Affairs of tho House, 1 held a'long-consultation yesterday morning, in regard to the recommendations of tho Secretary of°tho N-ivy respecting tho increase of steam service, and that they decided by a unanimous vote to report a bill the first time reports are called for in the nouse—which will probably be on Monday next —authorizing the immediate con- | struction of six steam frigates, nnd mating nn appropriation of three millions of dollars for that purpose—tho same to ho expended nnder the di rection of tho Secretary of the Navy in such manner as ho shall deem expedient. The promptness with which the Committee on Naval Affairs have responded to this important recommendation of the Secretary, shows a com mendable energy on their part, while it also in dicates a disposition to co operato with tho Sec retary in securing tho much-needed improvement in this branch of the service. Wo arc glad to see such prompt action in this matter ; and we hope Congress will not stop at this comparatively trifliog increase of our navy. Our navy should, in our opinion, be so and largely increased n 9 in a Tew years to place this nation beyond all apprehension of foreign assault or aggression. To build and support a navy that will prevent war, is fur cheaper than war itself. We publish to day tho “Homestead bill” in- j troluced by Mr- Dawson in the Ilonsc of Repre sentatives, together with tho remarks of tho Washington Fhton on the subject. It is likely ■ to lie received with fuvor at this session, and will probably pass tho House. It may encounter more opposition in the Senate. R c think, how ever, that it will beoomo a law. Wo notice in our review of proceedings in Congress only the measures of public nnd gen eral interest. Other matters that oecnpy some -r .V. r.r jlio-twn-ll.iiisiULJwiH-.ooi’ArclV he found under our telegraphic news. > THE! NEXT STATE ELECTION** Tho next State election will be one of impor tanoe to our Commonwealth. Tho people are then to elect a Governor, aJudgooftiio Sopreme Court, anil a Canal Commissioner, besides local officers and members of Congress. From pres ent appearances, we believe the present executive officer of tho Btato will bo re-nominated forGov ornor. A majority of the counties have already, ire believe, expressed their preference for WILLIAM BIGI-ER, as the democratic candidate for that office. For Judgo of the Supremo Court, JUDGE BLACK, the present Chief Justice, will doubtless be pre sented by the democracy for re-eleetion. Tho Presß and the People alt over the State have al ready expressed tbeir preference for him so strongly as to leave no doubt of his unanimous nomination. . For Canal Commissioner, if the democratio press may be considered as expressing tho sen timents of tho people, Col. HENRY S. MOTT trill bo tho candidate of the democracy. Our paper is pledged to tho party and ito prin ciples, and not to men. But to tho ’men whom the party seleots as its standard bearers, and tho cxocatorß of its will, we shall tender a cor dial sue port. Tho political position of tbe Pott is tho ono wo like; and tho position vo intend it shall con tinue to occupy. Free from individnal control, and independent of faction, it betongß to the entire democratic party, t',ie party of tho people. And when the will of, that party is known, and ift fairly expressed, our coutbo is plain, and wo shall pursue 5b without hesitation or reluctance. Wo shall, to the extent of oar ability, vindicate nnd sustain tho will of the people, and advooato the cause of democracy. In this course wo are certainly sufficiently independent to be ltoneßt, and sufficiently free to be in earnest. Orir main aim in tho management of our pa per is to satisfy the great mass of tho people, and the business oommnnity. And wo are gratified with the evidences lately afforded that WO have not failed of our aim as yet. We have mentioned tho names of tho proba ble candidates at the present time, because) the people of oar county will before long seloiit dele gates to the State Convention of Maroh next, by whioh tho nomination for the above officers will bo mado, > _ GEN. WILLIAM LARIMER, Itti Wo Bbould judge from tho tone of the whig Cowepapcra in several different parts of the State, that oar fellow-citizen above named stands v a pretty fair chance of being the next candi date for Governor of Pennsylvania. Several - whig papers havo reached ns of late with hi B name very favorably mentioned in connection with that office. Wo have no objection 1 to tho General being complimented with.oucb a norni ' nation; bnt wo shall havo decided objections to his election, Pittsburgh can’t sparo him., That Pittsburgh and Connellsville railroad should be driven ahead as fast as possible; and WS know of no position in whioh his energy and business capacity can bo so profitably employed ns in pushing forward that great work to comple tion. ‘ . However, we entertain no apprehensions for that road, or the democracy cither. Judge Knox’s majority last fall was about 37,000,..w0 believe. The whig candidate for governor next fall, against .such a recent and heavy majority, would be but the leader of a forlorn hope, if hope can ho said to exist in tho caso. Report of tlie Sorer‘ot*»dent of the Ccntnit The report of-Mr. Db Bow, the Bupcrinten dent of the Census Bureau, has been published. The report is brief, and merely indicates the | beads and divisions under which the vast amount of statistical information embodied in the volume of the census of 1850, iB arranged. The print ing of that volume is completed, and it is novr in tho hands of the binder*. ; The volume will compare favorably, with for- I mcr government works, in typographical appoar ancc. It contains 1,158 quarto pagoß. Of the sum of $50,93G subjeot'to the order of tho Cen sus Bureau upon Mr. Bn Bow’s entranoo into office $20,000 still remain. The cost inourred in taking each census since 1790, is as follows:: — The census of 1790 ?? « 1800.... 00,109 04 1810 ....... 178,444 57 f | tho expense of final printing, &e. , There nre seTen or eight hundred volumes of the manuscript schedules of 1850, in tho office, threo hundred and fifty of 1840, one hundred and fifty of 1830, &o. Those of an earlier date aro in great confusion. i Mr. Dn Bow recommends the publication of the statistics of manufactures, (which were not ordered by Congress); these statistics will fill a volumo of throe or four hundred pages. The Superintendent is satisfied they are at least as complete ns those of any previous census,. and perhaps more reliable. The government haß oollcctcd by every ccnsns, exoopt ono, since 1800, and published, material of thiß kind. Sta tistics of manufactures would certainly provo ono of tho most interesting features, of the work. - ::DECEMBER 20. The Superintendent states that it is evident that the present edition (20,000 oopics) of the census is too Email. Tho work ought to bo dis tributed, and has hitherto been distributed, in a manner different from that adopted for the mis cellaneous documents of government. Some thing like the following distribution iB recom' mended : Colleges and academies, &c., in the United States (one copy to each) -no States and city government (16 to caoh) 000 Counties, to be deposited at conrt-houßcs (one caoh) Foreign governments, &o • ■ Societies, libraries, &o. t in the United States Departments, cto 8,400 or about twenty-seven copies for eoch member of both lionseß of Congress. If the members of the last Congress ore to bo supplied, the numbe r will bo much less. The Duko of Albs is a brother-in-law of tbc French empress, and a grandee in Spain. “ At a ball given by the French Minister at Madrid, the Duko made Eomc disparaging and impertinent remarks about the drcs3 of Mrs. Soule, wife of the American Minister, which wero overheard by her boo. Refusing the necessary apology, young Soulo undertook to chastise the insolence of the Spanish Duke, on tho spot, but wns prevented from effecting it by i tho interference of his father. The assault gave Iriso to a high state of excitement. Young Soulo challenged tte Duke, but it was no go— he bad fight enough, and rofased to accept.’ [ Wo presumo tho prompt resentment of an t insult, by a young American citizen, has taught the Spanish Grandee a useful ICBSon. Bank and I titlo give no impunity for insolence, in the opinion of Americans. I Another occurrence abroad of lata is Icsb to I our taste, and, wo presume, will ho far leps ac- I ceptablo to American citizens. I Hon. Peter D. Vrooro, our minister to Prus- I sin, on arriving at Berlin, asked audience of tho king to present his credentials. Ho intended to I appear in citizen’s dross. On beingnotified that I he would not bo received in such dress, he ar- I rayed himself ia tho foppery and frippery of a court dress, and wn s thus presented. How, we wish Hr. Yroom, on being finally re- fused nlidienco in citizen’s dress, had “ demand ed his passport,” and left. Certainly there is nothing in the laws or etiquette of nations thnt requires of Amerio an officials such subserviency to royal folly; and iPis time republicanism should assert its i ndependenco of the royal tail ors of fluropo. If tho governments of Europe will refuse diplo'malie relations with tho United States, till their tailors have converted onr min isters into court dandies, then lot such relations cease till tho Eu ropean governments seek to re new them on equal terms. It is rumored that ginger cakes “t» ri: ” at Cleveland, so great iB tho demand by travelers for n lunch, bought at Cleveland, to be eaten ot Erie„and stay their stomachs till they can get to Dunkirk for dinner. That cake trade will soon become one of the most important interests of the Forest City. Let ns make a calculation. Wo .will Bapposo that there ore 1,000 persons passing daily by all trains over tho Lake Shoro road;—a high esti mate, of course. Each person will want two cakes to eat, to avoid a dinner at Erie. At a cent apiece, this amounts to $2O per day, for, say, 300 days in the year. Tho total makes the round sum of $O,OOO per annum, inemallchange; for they will not take bank bills, or even gold, in payment for cakes at Cleveland. $6,000 per year, and four-fifths profits; making the snug little sum of five thousand dollars; affording n handsome inoome for ten cake-baking families at Cleveland each year. But this estimato may be too high. Wo will reduce it to 8 families; and then wo have a now element in the prosperity of Cleveland that Is not to be “ sneezed at.” "' •>*<> " ‘ ...
