Itss eesWns were merely occasions for crimination and recrimination among Us members. This com mittee will « die and make no sign” on the fourth pf March ot the coming year. A Con-, vention 'will then 'assemble for the purpose of plabing ■in nomination candidates for Auditor General and Surveyor General. The process of electing; delegates to this body has been completed) except- in a few counties of the State. In -nearly every instance the officials of ’President Buobakas have either eleoted themselves or have appointed others to act as their echoes.: The city of Philadelphia,with its enormous Democratic vote, is to bo represented in that body by individuals chosen by packed meetings in the several districts, the great mast' of the Domocratto party standing off contemptuously Indifferent. In a few comi tiespf the State the people took the matter into their own hands, and elected men who will go to Hanisbnrg .with disinterested pur posesj but the great,body of the delegates are expected to-register the decrees already writ, ten out by our masters at.Washlngton. These decrees are not Delphic or uncertain, hut may be anticipated as readily as an article in the Washington Union or a calumny in the Washington Star. The delegates to this State Convention will- give no satisfaction to the Federal Administration, which aspires to ab sorb the Democratic organizations. of the States, unless they formally endorse all 1 that this .Administration has done, including, of .course, its atrocious Territorial policy and its still more , atrocious and scandalous pro scription of independent individual opinion. Abont one year ago we admonisbed the self-constituted censors and controllers of the Democratic prgauization in this State, that anyj attempt' to override or overslaugh the accepted principles of the Democracy would be sternly resisted and memorably avenged, that prediction was realized. The Democratic party ot this city, at the. spring election, last year, was defeated, beoanse its representatives had surrendered to the Fedora! powers, and, in the subsequent October election, another les son, ten times more significant, was terribly tqpght. The weak men who allowed them selves to be fettered by the wicked men, who had obtained power • only that they might more effectually' betray the confiding hosts who hod placed it in their hands, suffered in common with the more gnilty. So far from this retribution producing penitence in the hearts of the Washington managers, however, it excited only a new appetite for vengeance upon those who continued to stand fast by the accepted truths of the Democratic party. In pursuance of this polioy, care has again been taken] in advance, .to pack the ceming State Convention.' It remains to be seen whether the .scourge is to be, newly applied to those who- rebelled before, and whether the agents of a centralized despotism are again ready to do tho bidding of their superiors. They may do well assured that the principle which they conld not repress in 1858 has strengthened its -.loins for the great battle of 1859; and that the? troops who fought against them in two pitched conflicts have-been'disciplined by the. colli sion, and are not unwilling, if it must-be so, to accept ail the responsibilities of a new en counter. Daily there is an awakening of tho -unblic mind. The Democrats'of Pennsylva nia, disenchanted ,of their attachment to the ‘ man who has deserted] and after deserting has -sought to degrade ‘ them, have imbibed a still .rrtere passionate love for that which they con ceive to be right,'and will be content with abthing short of the amplost -and most un-' aqulvooal-recognition of their principles, ' J Party Newspapers. ‘. The index of an' -improving public taste, ind of a spirit of inquiring independence, on, the part of the masses, is to be found in the rapid; decadence ,of mere party newspapers, the'exacting' spirit of the present Adminis tration, in compelling its organs to swallow so many ' nauseous doses of, inconsistency and treachery to. principle,-has done much' to brlng this style of journalism Info contempt;' and ieius be thankful that.it is so. We.have known what it Is;,fo reflect tho sentiments of imerelywortal men; we have known what it ls; t6’ walk. thednli and' dismal routine of a mere organization; and; we can sympathize i wiffiT tliosc who groan]and sweat under the yyoke whloh has been put upon them since Mr. (Bubni'uAxi.has resolved to; subordinate prin-i 'biple -to pride] and to erect his own will Into the'stendardjiy which the party conscience; is to be tested. There is not a day, not an -hour in-tiie day,in' which spme groat question: Is not, presented to/the : unprejudiced mind, which'caimet be fairly discussed without giv ing; offenco , tothe little leaders of factions, and sections, and when discussed simply to: pleaso fftent there is a quickening sense of in stinctive indignation on the. part of the intel ligent-reader.inducing him to reject every suchfallacy, aaa gross insult and imposture. TherUis scarcely a voter in the United States, who can read and write, but does not admire ah intrepid man, whether he bo a writer or a speaker, a preacher, or a politician, a pundit or a poet. Mr.' Calhoun, in one of Mia greatest speech es, safd that “ opinion is power?’ fn this happy country of ours; and If this was true forty years ago, It is forty times truer to-day. Ima ' ?ine,’ for instance, what would become of scl ance in afl its abstrnso varieties and wonderful ; mysteries, if it]were graded and dipped by ■some mere individual authority I and where is there a grander science than that of hnman go vernment, and particularly the government of a free people ? A newspaper, to be popular, must excel fn every department. Let it bo hut honest, and its mistakes will be forgiven. Let fU tone be,elevated, and even its preju dices will be respected. Let its antagonisms be erect and honest, .and they will he believed In. Let it dare to do right, and it will prove to.;be a most terrible opponent of wrong. « Rendering unte Cassar the things which be long to Ctosar,”-and giving “honor where honor is due,?’ applauding an enemy if his acts are worthy, of applause—any journal standing upon this. conviction cannot fall to command. * and • hold a wide and in creasing influence. We have seen the mil lions of..the Federal Government indirectly lavished/to . maintain newspapers that havo Actod upon a different system, and lavished in vain'. Hoalthy journals havo fallen intocon ; sumption‘tip, moment they fell inte the hands of the Administration, and those who have managed to survive have done so only by opposing tho very measnres whioh they started out to support. We do pot mean, by these remarks, a rebnke of any one especial party organization, for there is mnch to disapprove in the ultraiams and follies of all parties. ■ Nor do we’desire ,to be understood as frowning mpon.; papers advocating party principles. Onr object is only to show that tho great In stitution of Journalism in the United States owes its vast, success to the'fact that it Is rapidly escaping from the thraldom of mere tkeiii tad is improving parties by Improving i|self.' That paper is certain to wield the •largest amount of power which, while elo quently defending its own peculiar opinions, dpes.hpt hesitate to denounce its own organi sation when that organization does wrong, and. to honor its adversaries' when they do right.

The' Supreme Court have gtahtecl the in. junction restraining- the ahoVe-hamed com pany .from, proceeding with the work Upon I thoir llhe,‘aß prayed by certain residents of Atch street, the argument upon this ques tion took place on Saturday, in-the presence of ,a Very largo audience, composed of per sons of all pursuits, showing that the snbjeot of Passenger Railways has become one of very general interest to the pnblic. The suc cess of all the completed lines is assured, as the dividends recently declared sufficiently testify. That, within aby no moans cireum scribed limit, all projected lines will share in similar, success, is a fair inference from what We learn of those completed] This paper has always been an advooato of passenger railways, and has urged the pro priety of their extension and increase. We have, more than ohee, pointed ont the great advantages of this taodo of intra urban traVoi, and demonstrated that while It affords pleasure and convenience to the man of wealth and leisure, it at the same time shortens the toil, and Adds to tho health and,comfort, of the laborer. It is idle now to suggest the superiority of pas senger railways to the noisy, slow, and in convenient omnibus. -Those most frightened by the threatened invasion of this city by tfie rail and cars, are now to be found among the most unconditional admirers of tbiß mode of travel, since it has been tested by actual ex periment. And altbongh the annoyance and hindrance the railways were to he to those residing upon their line was most energeti cally proclaimed as one of the greatest of the numerous calamities which were to follow in their train, we have yet to hear the first whisper of complaint from any one occupy ing a house upon a street on which a pas senger railway is laid. In tho case of the Arch-street line, how evor, the Legislature annexed to the grant of their corporate privileges certain conditions, precedent, which were to be compiled with before those privileges conld be enjoyed. In the act of Assembly incorporating this company, among other things it was enacted, « That before the said company shall use and occupy the said streets, the consent of the Gonnciis of the city of Philadelphia shall be first obtained; and said consent shall be taken and deemed to bave been given if said Ooun cils shall not, within thirty days after the passage of this act, by ordinances duly pass-, ed, signify their disapproval thereof.” There, wore the simple words of tho act of Assem bly. Councils are first to signify their appro val of the occupancy of the streets by this company. This they can do by silence upon the subject for thirty days; but should they within the prescribed time, “by ordinances duly passed, signify their disapproval there of,” tben you must not occupy the streets named for railway purposes. It is well known that within tho prescribed time, and in the prescribed .manner, Oonncils did signify their disapproval. Now, the Supremo Court did not, and were not asked to, enter into any qnestion of the merits and demerits of pas senger railways in general or this one In par ticular. Tho simple point decided in the granted injunction is, that when the Councils expressed their disapproval of tho railway in ' question, they exhausted their delegated au thority, and that no action ot thoir own could reinvest them with power, limited in extent, and already exercised. Thus we see that before tho Arch-street Passenger Railway can pro ceed in tho use and oceupanoy of the streets, they must receive further power ftom the Legislature, which bound them with tho condi tions which have rendered their former char ter unavailing. It-wonld be well to inquire whether, before the Legislature grants the additional privi lege rendered necessary by this decision, they oonld not mako this company pay tho p'ublio in some way for the valuable and lu crative franchises they are abont to possess; whether they conld not combine with their own emolument some recompense tothe eity, whose streets they are abont to nso. For many years a great and growing want has boon felt of means of communication between the old city and tho portions of the consolidated eity west of the river Schuylkill. From a va riety of causes (well known, and not necessary here, to recapitulate,) the city has been unable , to bridge tho river to tho extent that her in creasing population demands. Why should not the Arch-street Passenger Railway Company build a bridge across the .Schuylkill at-Arete - street, and extend thulr road ppon tbat street, westward, instead of running to Fairmountf ; Fairmount is already the terminus of at least two passenger railways—the Race and Vine, , and tho Green and Coates. For all 'purposes ‘ of public accommodation, one square of road to connect the Arch-street railroad with tho ; Race and Vine, on Twenty-second and Twen ty-third streets, would serve, while the bnild ; iDg the road across the river and continuing ; it upon Arch street westward, wquld, without ; diminishing the receipts of tho company, ex plore a portitm of the city as yet unaccommo dated in this way, and bring its denizens into cheaper and more agreeable communications with thoir eastern neighbors. We suggest, therefore, to the members of tho Legislature, that before they again give this company the privileges which their former proviso deprived them ef using, they carefully consider the suggestions we have made. Let the Arch-street Railway complete its road, but compel them to complete it west ward upon Arch Btreet, at least as far as the Lancaster turnpike; and in order to do so, let them ereot at Arch street a bridge over the Schuylkill, by which the cars may cross the river, and which shall be free to all persons wishing to crOss at that point.' And let mem bers not be deceived by assertions' of inter ested parties that this Will make tb» road un remunerativo to tho stockholders -, for there are plenty in Philadelphia able and willing to take the stock off the hands of any dissatisfied holder, at whatever price it may have cost them, and to build at Arch street a free bridge, which wjll be an ornament as well as a great public convenience, and to extend the road in the direction above designated, bringing tho inhabitants of that part of the Twenty-fourth ward into close communication with the more densely populated portions of the city, and enriching her. treasury by tho increased re-' ceipts of taxes,consequent upon the increased valne of real estate. Now Pnblieatione. That nnenrpasted edition of The British Poote, now in course of pablio&Uon b, Little, Brown, k Co , of Boston, Intended* to inolude all‘the writers of Song, from Chauoer to Wordsworth, has just been enriohed by four additional volumes of " English and Sootfish Ballads,” whioh have been selected, with as muoh taste as judgment, by Pro fessor F. J. Child. It thns oompresses into eight volumes all the best ballads of England and Boot land, with a sprinkling of Irish. Whenever necessary, the history of eaoh ballad Is given, ita snbjeot related, and .ita obsonre passagos, phrases, and allusions oarefaily annotated and explained. There is a glossary to eaoh volume, and a very tell index to volume VIII, referring not only to the ballads in this collection, but also to suoh others, not inoluded In it, as aro likely to be looked for. The distribution in these volumes is as follows: Book VI oontains tho Robin Hood ballads, with a oritionl, historical, aad Inquiring Essay by Professor Child; Book VII Border Bal lads; Book-VIII Historical and Ballads; Book IX Miscellaneous. We cannot hesitate to pronounoe this as the very best collec tion of English and Soottlßh Ballads ever pub listed- Every prevlons collection has been ran saoked, compared, collated, and drawn upon. We thought, as we read them, (and we did read every line "in the oars,”) how wisely that English statesman exolaimed, " Give me the making of the ballads of a nation, and I oare not who writes her history.” A very beautifully printed volume of prose flo* tion, written by the daughters of the gifted and ill-fated poet 0. Lincoln Fairfield, has so greatly interested us that we have great satisfaction in earnestly and warmly recommending it to our readers—more particularly as we have reason to believe that its sale will confer a benefit upon the family of Mr. Fairfield. This volume contains three stories. . WisHiHOTOir, Jan. 18,1859. After a good long silence, I fool disposed this lovely morning—spring in the air, sunshine in the streets, and tho gay and beautiful making Penn* eylvaoia avenue joound with life and happlbes3 — to send you a letter from “ Occasional.” I have boon busy onough since I took you by the hand, but I have not been unobservant. There is onough gossip and fact in this strange but interesting oity to fill a dozen letters, and I regret that I can only send you one—at least at present* < • Do you recollect an article that appeared in the New Orleans Delta some time ago, when the Delta Was an anti*Administration paper—it has Jhtely taken the other Side—in which there was a foarfui onslaught upon the President, owing to bis odd courtship of Sir W. Gore Oueoley and his set, and a diatinot charge that Sir Gore had had tafiaenee enough to cause the President to rovise and alter his Central American policy ? -1 was glad to observe that you omitted to republish this article, especially that part of it In which, with the most significant satire, the writer Bpoke of the wintry affections of the President being warmed by con tact with other flesh and blood. You will recol lect that the name of Hon, Mr- Clingman, the new Senator from Noith Carolina, was given in connection with this scathing article. Mr- Cling man, who oame over to the Demooratlo party a few years ago, was ohairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations in the House, andjhis is the way he was used and treated by his Majesty King James. I copy that part of the Delta's article which is not objeotionabie for Us allusion to other parties: “ So sudden and unexpected was Mr. Buahanan’s conversion,on that question, that Mr Clingmao, of NoTth Carolina, then obaiimnn of the Committee on Foreign Relations in the House of Representa tives, who had reported a bill to the House for the abrogation of the infamous Clayton-Dalwer ohe&t nnddisgraoe/and advocated its passage with unu sual earnestness and seal, heoauso of its being, as he thought, an Administration measure, was con* founded when he saw in the lobbies of the House a swarm of Senators, and all tho members of tbe Cabinet, from the obsequious Blaok down to the head of the Post Office, all Imploring, threatening, coaxing, or using other means to defeat the vorv measure the President of these Stales had a fro days before solemnly recommended to Congress to adopt. Of bourse, every one was astounded — none more so of the author of the bill to repeal the hated treaty, Mr. Ciiogman, who showed proper spirit and indignation on the subject, but who, at the time, being suddenly translated to the United Stato§ Senate, wpre vented putting bis bill and accompanying resolu tions before tbe House to the ttist of the vote.” It now appears from the Now York Herald , the family organ of the President, that Mr. Clingman is supposed to be the author of the story giving the secret of the extraordinary ohange of front by the President on this question. A more scan dalous accusation could not well be oonooived. After having been put forward to advocate one polioy as to oar Central American relations, and then humiliated by a publio repudiation of his aotion by the agents of the Administration— which had in the meantime changed its ground, unknown to him—-to aoouse him of being guilty of an anonymous attack upon de fenceless people is an act which there is no language too severe to describe* Mr. Clingman is a high-toned gentleman—none more se. He has fallen under tbe ban of the and Us minions by adhering to their own policy, which, having been once reoeded from, they now reocoupy, and ho may rest assured that all their efforts to damago him will only reaot to his ad vantage. Sooial life in Washington is a curious study. We havo had a new heraldry In official circles since Locompton became the gospel ef the Administra tion. Forgetting that there are other eakes and ale in the l&nd, tho President restriots his bread and butter to the faithful alone. Before you can sit at his board you must worship At hif shrine. You oannot make your face to shine with his wine and oil unless you submit to his politics. He does not even dispense a smile except for a considera tion. Yon may see him if you go to a reooptieu; but If he knows you to be of an opposing party, he will freeze you with a look, or knook you down with a sneer. Under Fillmore and Pioroo, tho White House was not an ice-house. The poorest clerks were welcome. The political foe ato the bread of tbe Exeoutivo with none to molest and to make him afraid, and stood in tho prese&oo without trembling. X bave never known Washington more delight ful, notwithstanding the Siberian hospitality at the West End of the Avenue.

Mr. Bigler’s Amendment was ti strike out'the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth sections of tbe original bill, and in lieu of them to insert: Section 4 Requiring that in making the con ract the road shall be divided into three grand divisions of equallength, t> be known as tbe eastern, western, and middle divisions, and these divisions shall be divided into sections of twenty-five m‘lgs each; and, in con sideration or the stipulations and undertakings in the contract, there shall be appropria’ed atd sot apart a quantity ot land* equal to tbe alternate sections cf publio lands, for the space of twenty m les on each side of the road, and for the full extent or the eastern and weatorn divisions: Provided, That all mineral lands within the State of California be exeludai from the operation of this act Section 5 That the party with whom the rontract shall be made shall proceed without delay to locate the general route of the road, and inrnish a detailed survey and map thereof to the President, who shall cause the lands to be surveyed; and the imi in title thereto to be extinguished as soon as practicable; and the pre-swp ticn law shall be extended to the lands thus surveyed.

Provides for the forfeit of the contract* in case of negi°ot or refaeal to prosecu'e the work. Mr. Bbu*. of Tennessee, after a speech on tbe me rits of tbe Mil, proposed, as a parliamentary way of getting clear of all the atnondm'nts and bringing the bill into shape, to recommit it, with instructions to advertise the fall estimates for the cost of construction of each of tbe three routes, equal to a first-class toad, with fifty-four pounds to the yard Mr. Gwin, or California, hoped tbat if the bill is would be sent t? a new committee, to see if there can be a committee formed that will com mand a majority of the Senate, Pioneer. v Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, brought to the notice of the Senate a substitute which he had reported from the minority of the committee, which, however, had not been reached. It was for the Senate to decide whether it would give expieselon on it bofore it recommitted the bill. Mr. Brown, of Mississippi, moved that the MU be laid on tbe table At this joint, It was agreed that the bill, with its ma^y'amocdmects and rearaecimsnti hi printed, as It was difficult to know in what shape it stood. Theßeaate then adjourned. BOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House pastel the Senate bill authorizing the is sue of registers for and change of the names of the steamships Canada and America. Mr. MIH.BON, of Virginia, asked, but failed to o'tain, leave to introduce a resolnt on direct ng tbe Committee on Commerce to report back, forthwith, the Benate btll repealing the fishing bnnu’ies laws. Mr Cofin, of Alabama, from the Committee on Pub lic Lauds, reported a hill confining the aggregate com pensation of registers and receivers or land ofiitea to $2,600 per annum. Jilr Cobb mentioned that this MU was Intended to correct tbe abuses now existing, instancing the ease cf the Plattsburg (Missouri)office, where $lO,OOO wore to calved for one year’s service. The b'll was pa-.soil. Mr. Coddj of Alabnna, reported a bill to raise and continue in force, without restriction or limitation of time, the bouitj-land acts of 3535, 1842, and 1862, Passed. A bill providing for the repayment of the purchase money for lands erroneously sold, was passed. A bill authorizing persons who settled on the six teenth and "thirty-sixth sections of land before they were surveyed to pre-empt t>*era, ;a*sed. A bill appropriating $5,000 to run, make, and estab lish the western boundary of Minn*sota, passed. Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, said that he had received a letter from Mr. 1). B. Allen, a citizen of York, of high standing, preferring charges against certain civil officers in connection with the Brooklyn Navy Yard,* which, if true, would involve case# of impeachment, and he had alettar from a member of this House charg ing that tho offices and employments In the navy yards were habitually sold for money. Ho had alsodo his posre ston cop esof Philadelphia journals, in which it wis charged that abu*es existed In tho conduction of affairs at ihe navy yard imhat city, and affidavits and certificates of tho workmen in which w-re exhibited to him, which, If true, clearly proved tho charge. Mr.Bue*man efiereda preamble and resolution set ting forth that whereas Mr. B B Allen, of New York cltj, has prefer red specific charges agxlnst certain officers of the Nary Department, as guilty of partiality and a violation of the law in awardirg contract* 5 and that the money appropriated by Congress for tho navy-ysrd docks and repairs has been expended for partisan pur poses ; BeSDlved, That a select committee of fire be ap pointed to examine into the esid specifications, with power to send for persons and papers. The resolution was unanimously adoj ted. The Housa then went into Committee of the Whole on tho stale of the Union, on the bill to codify the ravenuo laws debate, Mr. Kbitt, of South Carolina, moved to strike cot the enactiug clause. Mr. Comxks, of Massachusetts, hoped the motion would cot prevail. It was the duty of the House to de vott- a few days with the view to amend and perfect this moasure Mr Keitt’s motion prevailed. The committee then rose, when the House concurred in itR action by a vote of 103 to 84. The House Retain went into Committee of the Whole on the state of the Union on tho President’s message. Mr. Cox advocated tbe President’s recommendation for the a-quisiiion of Cuba, showing the advantages which would result therefrom Al.tiding to the remark of Governor Chase, which he recently made at a New England dinner la Ohio in favor of American expansion, Mr Oox said th*tif the Democrats dou’t look sharp tb-rir RerubllcAu fiends will ste»l their thunder, for the Republican moutbß are already jciey with the idea of free sugar. He was wi liug to tote tor the proposi tion of Mr. Br&noh, placing tbe money in tbe hands of the President for the muehaae of Cuba, and in case of refusal would go for seizing the island In the event of a war. He proceeded to speak of the law of growth, say ing that we must g-ow without, if we would not fail within, and that any nation failing to spread its empire fails of aceompVsht&g Us destiny. When we conquered Mexico we should have retained possession. He be lieved that this country had oigans sufficiently suited to digest it properly. If we do not obtain Mexico It will fall a prey to some other Power. We should recognise tbe Juarez Government, by giving it the solemn assu rances of onr sympathy. Considering that France, England, and Spain b«*e fleets in the Gulf of Mexico, we should sent one thither, together with a commis sioner or mlnbterj and he should seok, by a trsa'y with Juarez at Yem Crus, to obtsin reciprocal advan tages, by which onr trade which la now onI» seven millions, may be raised to twecty-eight millions an nually, which is the extent of tbe British commerce. If his Southern friends objected to the seizure of only Chihuahua and Bonora, let them take, In atdition. Tt maulipas and'New Leon, and lot them try there their hands on ooff-e and sugar { and let those provinces ult - ra*tely come into the Union as Btates, not singly, but in a cluster of stars. He regarded Louis Napoleon as The cb’ef Instigator of the Interventional affair* oo tbiscou tinent lie had a secret prayer, and bo would give it utterance. It was that thore may soon bo a barricade erected in tee Boulevards, and that there wonid be many more citizens than soldiers who would fraternize to the of the “ Marseillaise.” This prayer an swered, the world would be rid of a usurper. He spoke of the affairs of Central America, and counselled firm action to maintain our rights and make tbe American name respected. As to the alliance between France and England, he thought it cmld not continue, and even if dne*, there wonid he no danger from that source to us if we all unite in the enforcement of the Monroe doc trine Io the course of his remarks, while lay'ng down the low of American growth and progress on thin continent, with reference to Cuba in ad economical light, he afflrn od that the tariffs of Cuba, both for Import and export, were in'anious and the cause of An honorable war in an ago of comm - ratal. freedom. Ho illustrat'd this with reference to tho sugar trade and tax, by eta ting that In 1347 this country had paid sixty millions for the sugar tax, of which bad paid six millions, and bis district three hundred thousand dollars, to pro tect a few Louisiana sugar plants a. He gave statistics to show that our trade in flour, funder a fair Cuban tariff, would be a million birr els a year, or, if Cuba were an nexed, that trade, and trade in other produce, would be still greater enhanced. Tho message was then laid aside. On motion tf Mr Fmelps, of Missouri, the consulate and dfplon atio appropriation bill was taken up Mr Hickman, of Penosylvaniu, said it was fortunate that the President’s views on the tariff weio not made a test of political orthodoxy, else the Beo*elary of the Treasury lw’ght have found himself proscribed There r.nuld bo no tariff strictly for revenue, considerirg diversified pursuits of Oiir people. • The financier cannot hope to reap where he has not sown. The revenue lies at t3e bottom of protection. Tbe Pri'sidtnt had very properly recommended specific duties. Ad valorem duty was not only destructive to the interests of the country, but ruinous to the reveouo. He, in conclu sion, gave his views on tho tariff generally, The committees then rose, and the House adjourned.

After considering a* d passing several private bills, the Senate adjourned HOUSE. Mr. Wn,ET r of Philadelphia, offered the follotvlDg re solution : Resolved, That a committee of five be appointed, whose dnty it shall be to fnrnish a full report to the Zloase of all necessary Information In‘relation to the policy of the State tax imposed upon domestic and fo reign goods sold at auction by regularly licensed auc tioneers, with a view to the consideration of the expe diency or inexpediency of a modification or repeal of the laws imposing etid duties npoa the said goods. The resolution was adopted Mr. LawttßßOß, of Washington, chairman of the select committee to whom -wa« referred the resolution rel&tiog to the tariff, made the following report: Whereas, The experience of the past and present most fatly demonstrates that It is a wise and beneficent po licy of the General Government which dictates the im position of duties on such products of foreign nations as come in such direct contact with those of onr coun try, as to interfere and prostrate the trade on onr own soil and araongour own citizens:' And whereas, for want of such aid, the country is filled with foreign products, the result of cheap labor; the monetary affairs of the nation disarranged by the exportation of specie, to pay an indebtedness abroad, and the cltixeos and laborers in many departments of trade compelled to abandon their accustomed employ ment; especially do oar own coal and Iron interests suffer: Therefore, Re/olved. By the Senate and House of Representa tives of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in Gene ral Assembly mot, That onr Senators Iq Congress be instructed, and onr Representatives requested, te labor for the passage (at the present session) of such an act u will not only tend to increase the revenue by the im position of duties, hut afford adequate protection to all the interests of the country injured by the productions of the cheap labo* of other countries, but more es pecially to urge an Increase of dnties on coal and Iroa, in whi-*h so large a portion of our own people are deeply interested. t Resolved, That the views of the President, expressed In his late annual message, in reference to the ad vantage of specific ov*r ad valorem dnties, as more uniform, less liable to frauds; and affording the moat certain amount of revenue and protection, meet our moat hearty approval. Resolved, That the Governor be requested to for ward each of onr Senators and Represent itires in Con gress a copy of the above preamble and resolutions, in forming them of their adoption. ' , Mr. Gokpf, of Northampton, denied the right of the Legislature to instruot the Senators. Messrs Liwassoß. of Washington, Gritmsk, of La ze ce, anl Wjllistok, of Potter, advocated there'ota tioos at groat length. The resotatlpcfcj'.as originally • offered, were finally adopted, with very slight modifications. Moure Goepp, of Northampton, and Laird, of Erie, voted against them. f - - - Mr. Tuokx submitted tbe-fotlowlng: Resolved, That the clerk be directed to purflhvta, for the.use of the Railroad Committee, a map of the cltr of Philadelphia. , • ' • • Mr. Irish. 1 moTe to .amend the resolution by adding: Also, a map of the city of Pittsburg. Air. Rose. . I moTe to amend the amvndment.by in serting that a map be furnished free to all the members of this House.; The Chair decided this amendment, together with tbe previous ene, not yet in order. Mr Thorn. , I only desire to say. sir, that more then half of the Commit tea on Railroads are not eitisens of Philadelphia, and .the proposition to build passenger railroads in taat place seems to be a very important one just now; and I suppose V e propriety of the resolution must be acknowledged by every member. Mr Ross renewod his motion to amend, and remark ed : The reason why I offend the amendment is this ; we have to vote on those bills, and in order to vote in telligently. it is n*eesaary that we know exsctly the lo cation of tne two cities. We know nothing about tbe location, and 1 don’t see why the members are not as much entitled as the committee Mr. Hamersly; I hope the motion to amend will notpreva-1. It will cost one thousand dollars to fur nish each member with .a map. The committee can report, and then hang tbe map up somewhere whet o wo all ran see It. The amendment was disagreed to. The question recurring on tbe original resolution, the yeas and nays were taken, when it was disagreed to. Mr Walborn gave notice tf his lutention to intro duce a bill providing for the construction of a passen ger railway on Aroh street, in tne city of Philadelphia Adjourned. From Washington.

Th& transactions of the stock board to-day were limited, the fancy stocks being more dull than other kinds, but without any evidences of unusual weakness. The turn in the market is by no means unexpected to us, as we again and ag&'n remarked before the recent rise, that there was no prospect of any active move, ment in Blocks until the matter of the new Qovern ment loan was ended, its effects upon the money market determined and ovirarme, and business quietly moving again, in accustomed channels. -It rtquires bold oi era* tors to overtake any heavy contracts in stocks, in the , face of large financial operations on the put of Govern, ment, which a*® likely to derange the money market. There are bold, cperators among those who deal in st-cks, we know, and they may take hold and caose a renewed advance in the market; but the probability Is that the risk Is greater than the possible prolife will warrant, and the? wi.l ex ercise discretion and bide their time. AH- kinds of sto !os are brought In to account for the depression— rumors of another war between the New York Central and the Erie Bailrcai, the bugbear of the Beading bonds to be met in 2850, and other causes—but there is no need of them at all The heaviness of tbe market is in the shares generally selected for ; speculation, and that these are is sufficiently explained by the uncertainty of the tension upon the money-bag stricgs during tbe next ninety days.

The fall of the bank weighed heavily upoa him acd hastened his decease. We have been favored, by T. B. Peteison, Beq. } with the Inspection of a set of tbe new Canadian coins, at tained by him for the purpose of engraving, and addi tion to tbe fac-simlle impressUns of all the ether eoins of the world, as shown In his Complete Coin .Book. Tbe ten-cent piece Is of exactly the same also as the American dime ; the five cent piece is a very little breeder than tbs American half dime; and the tweuty-cent piece is about one thi ty-eecond of an inch less in width than the Amsri*an quarter dollar. The head of the Queen, on them all, is executed with fidelity to the features of tbe original; the arrange meat of the hair being in excellent good taste, and tbe whole design very beautiful. The wreath -of maple leaves on tbe revels?, surmounted by the crown, is very well drawn, and the value and date, 20 cents, 1868, in three lines In Its centre, very nest and plain. We have no hesitation in giving our rfpinlon that these silver . coins far exceed in b« auty any eo : n ever issued, from the British mint, with perhaps tbe single exception of the famous Victoria crown, the dies for whioh were can opied on account cf the extrsordinarj expense involved in their use. .We congratulate tbe people ot Canada upon tbe introduction of these beautiful coins, add re cord our-voie in favor of acoioage of twenty-cent pieces at our own mint.
