POTTSVILLE. Saturday Morning, Jan. 1, ISIS. DENIABITS BANSAN. - Editar. ELZ BOWEN,.ayiistaat Editor MOVESTENTS AT TM CAPITOL: Codgreas from all accounts, is in state quo. Many 'it' the members lave gone home,' to spend tho holidays, and those that remain are holding back, and preparing themselves for the exciting times that aro to follow. Nothing has been done in either branch of Congress, of an 'important public character. For come time past they have done little' else than to adjourn from day to day, out of respect to deceased members; and the habit is growing so frequent, that, delicate as the subject is, it appears to suggest some refonnatidn. In the Senate, five deaths have occurred since tho last session, and for each deceased 'individual, a day or more has been lbst. In the House the number has been much greater, and the, conse quence fa that the greater portion of the time since the commencement of the session has been taken up with eulogies, conceal ceremonies,. et ceteras. It would not be out of place, in our opinion, if a day were'set npartoVery- tither week, or weekly, for the adisouncen4ntof deaths, and the considera -' lion of such mAters exclusively. Or, if they were announced in the afternoon, near 'the hour it adjournment, much time and money would be IMIE In the House, the qhestion of Slavery in the District of Columbia has been agitated, and for a day or two past, has Created considerable excite. went. Mr. Caleb Smith of Indiana, introduced a petition touching the — ilave'trade and its abolition in the District, which was finally laid on the table by a vote of 75 to 70 noes. This, we thief:, is pretty close work. The Wilmot Proviso has done touch to prepare the icpresentatives of the free States for prompt action on the subject. and with out a doubt the constitutional power of Congress to interfere with its existence in the District will be thoroughly canvassed at the proper time. • , GCh, Taylor is expected to arr,ve at Washing. ton about the 25th instant. A meeting of his ' friends was held at Colemaa'shotel the other night, and arrangements Made for his reception. Mr. Hunt, of New York, has introduced a reso lution in the House, tendering the thanks of Con gress to Gen. Winfield Scott, for his military ser vices in Mexico. 0 • • A dinner to Gen. Shields and Quitman is on the lapis, and another to Gen,.Taylor, to coma off on the 22nd of February, rendered 'still more interesting as the anniversary of the victory of Buena Vista. The bill now before the House of Representa tives for the - relief of Mrs. Fx-Fresident provides an annuity of ..:;000. and ..?.0,000 to be invested in the names of trustees. (of whom Mr. Buchanan is one,) to be by them reserved for her sold benefit, to be inallinable during Iter life, by her last will and testament. , The Supreme Court, now in session, has been thronged for soine tone past. It appease to of•r more attraction's to the visiter than ihe LegiilaCfve • halls. Some of the most eminent lawyers in the country are employed in cases pending before it, and for several days past. Mr. Webster and Mr. Choate of Massachuietts have been engaged be fore it on a great ci3hstitutional question. The former recently made' an able effort in behalf_ of the heirs of Robert Fulton, whose claims are now under consideration. =5 . . The rumors whkh reached us lost week, olthe difficulties between General Scott and several ofl ficers in his commend, hove been sustained by latepaccounts from the city of Mexico. An order was transmitted from the War Department in January last, 1847. as fallow's: • 650. Private letters or report- ri !stir,. In laillitgry marches and operations, nor trequently , inischievons in design, and always di-gracethl to the nrtny. They MT , . therefore. strictly forbidden; and any calker found guilty of making rush report for publication. without ..pecird permission, or of pining the writing beyond his control, 50 that it finds its was to the press, within one month af ter the termination tit" the campnitot to which it relate; :hall be dismissed front the service. General Scott in November last, called attention to the above, and remarked that letters bad been written by some officers in violation of it, and in dulged iir , some reflections which was construed into a .personal application upon certain officers. The effect of this was, that a letter from Col. Dur.can appeared in the North American, frankly avowing that he wrote the letters alluded to, and exoneral tiog the others implicated, Gcn. Scott immedi• ately arrested Col. D., and from disclosures after: ward made, also arrested Generals. Pillow and Wortk—upon the ground,-as avowed by Duncan, that the-offensive letter was compiled nfrom two other Idlers written by officers of the army."— Gen. Scott, therefore, presumes there three persons to be the guilty parties, and so the matter rests. T.J.lZ4raCtiec of writing letters home hasbecome , very common, and it happens that nearly every one has a different stdry' to tell, arid a particular individual or officer to extol. Many persona now In Mexico, owe their fame mare to the letters which they themselves write and have published at home, than any actual skill or courage they may have displayed on the field of battle. - Gen. Scott did perfectly right in arresting Duncan, and Perhaps the other two—yet be was at fault in making the reflections which he did, and is perhaps, n's a gen eral thing, too opt. to. indulge visions of his own -greatness. But as for Duncan, he deserves to be severely punished• upon the strength 'et* his letter in the North American, for he there breithes a rpirit of bohtness and insubordination that is as disgraceful to hitiaself as it amid be disastrous if the example were followed by others. It is a source of. deep "egret that 'the friendly relations which for thirty-five years existed be tween Gens. Scott and Worth, should have been disturbed_by either in a manner soamusual and undignified. We may well excuse the little jeal ousies which are nont to exist in military life, but to 'expose them thus openly, is altogether disgrace. ful and undignified. LOTTERIES IN MARYLAND The lottery system as now co:ultimo! in Mary land, promises to yield to that State a very hand some revenue. During the last three years the amount, of revenue from this source has• increas ed over,the three previous years s4s,ooo—the whole amount received being $63,000. his be lieved that for the next three years the amoun will reach about $140,000. A large amount of money is annually sent out of this State fur these lotteries, and it has frequently occurred to us, that the evil.would scarcely be more formidable if the Legislature authorized the holding of them Maur own State, as the revenue that could thus be obtained would very nearly equal dint of our ' , lie works, oftlinnrili, and besides attracting -is of money, from strangers and citizens ;lates, ,wenld also keep-our money at ions system, we rulthit—but be defeated so long as - -itenance it.

He was formerly Superintendent pf the Common ,Schools in this State, and in his official capaeity did much to 'give support and permanency to that admirable plan of education. Politics, for a time, (in which he was an active prirticipani) 'obscured his real merits as an officer, n venter, and a man— but the day has now arrived when the name of, Burrowea—at one time scarcely heard but orlge . lips of the excited pollteelen—will be associated with that of Goodrich, the Peter Parley of Mas sachusetts, and the boast of all-New England.

SINGULAR .00CURRENCE , A 'singular accident occurred in Baltimore on Monday evening last, resulting in the dczth of one or two persons, and seriously injuring others. The Kitchen-range or water-boiler in the refectory of Mr. Luther; exploded, breaking everything in the room. The rouse is supposed to have besin water (mixing either in the pipes Which filled the boiler with water or the escape steam-pipe. The boiler was full ,When fire was placed in the furn ace, and when steam began to expand, finding no outlet, explosion ensued. We ... mention this to place our readers, who may have eiruilar articles in use, on their guard. It maybe that the pipe which supp:i d the range was frozen up, and that tvhen,it became ° heated, water rushed in, produc ing a superabundance of steam wl.•ich the boiler cbuld:not contain. At any rate,'it would not be amiss for those who use ranges toinvrstigate they operations and if possible, prevent a recurrrn:e of the accident. SERIOUS AFFAIR AT YALE COLLF.CF. A serious affair occurred at Yale College, New Haven, Coon., on Wednesday night. between two of the tutors and two students, resulting in the stabbing of one of them with n sword cane.

A State Treasurer will also have to lie elected in a short time, and the present ericient incumbent will doubtless retire. There will be much importint business brought, bcforo dim body at the ensuing session—not the least interesting to the people of this county, will be their action• on the Removal bill of fast sessior.

THE FOREI'M' NEWS The steamer Hibernia arrived at Boston' a few days ago, with laid dales Erdal Liverpool. The news is important in a Cemmercial view, but. has little miscellaneous interest. There has been further failures, but the bullion of dm Bank of England was inrresing, and the rate of interest had been reduced to 6 per cent.

MISCELLANEOUS NEWS PROGF.SS OF COINING —.The process of co i n ing gold is very accurately yet succinctly de scribed in a letter to the Boston l'ost. We con dence the description 'as follows :—The minors have to grind the gold rock fine, keeping it wet constantly, and as it•becomee lino it washes rdf: They have a hard kind of stone for grinding. They then mix quicksilver with it, and that col lects the gold dust. It is washed nut..drietl, and goes thMugh some kind of a heating process. The old dust is then usually sold to the eup-rintend ant of the mint. To find the value, each parcel has 42 he assayed. 'The' esssying the most cu rious4nd scientific of sit the business in the mint.

Thi. is done several times till the acid has extracted all the silver and other mineral substances, leaving the sample pure gold. The sample is then weigh ed, and by the diffoxnee between the weight be fore assaying and after, the true value is formed. The gold after it has been assayed, is melted, re fined, end being mixed with its due proportion of alloy, (equal parts of silver and copper) is drawn into long strips, in shape, not unlike an iron hoop fir a cask; the round pieces cut out with a sort , of punch, each piece weighed, and brought to the right size by a file, if too heavy, whets it is milled, or the edge raised and put into a stamping press, 'whence it comes forth a perfect coin, bearing the endorsement of "U.

BISHOP 'HUGHES ,AMONO THE PURITANS.. —The report. of the dinner of the Sons of New England, at the Astor House, New York, contain the speech of, Bishop Hughes on that occasion. He was drawn put by the following toast, from the Prdidenti "The present Sovereign Pontiff of Rome, Piu's IX." • Mi. V. P. Fessenden, repeating it, added, "we are glad to find anything of Near England about him." This called up Bishop Hughes, who recogni zed the'Compliment as one most highly apprecia- Tn, reference to the Pope, ho bed reason to believe him to be a man eminently qualified for the great work to which be was called. As to myself, Said he, I have not the honor to be a son of New; England—let I can claim the right of being- a gown-Easter. To express the emberras ment he felt In these, to him, new.circumstances, he referied•to an old English legend. • I must remember how ! you bare appeared to me in past time, and how I, no doubt, must have appeared to you; for no doubt some of you have seeriany name in the newspapers. Well, there was a man, as the story goes, named Giles Beres gins ; and going home from town one night, after transacting his business, he felt happy t.epd some thing came cwet him, and he fell a sleep. Some neighbois took the horse from his cart. On awe frem his slumbers he said, "Am I Giles Befogging, or am I not I If lam I have lost a hone r i if not, I have gained a Cart."' Barring all the antecedents and some of the cirenaistan• cos, I feel in the same condition as Gile gins did. I think that I, who ant used ' Bishop Hughes; should find m"- • __ of the New England Sox Pius IX proposed, it the toast 'mini is indeed ene to things u I neve, „„ Mr. 'ADANS AND nit WAR.—So many reports have been circulated in •relation to .tho views of Es-President Adams. that the folloking, Washington letter!
