BY MIPNIQRT MAIL
Letter- from Watibington.
[Oorresporatenal of 6.ll6"Presil-
Wl:summit, Feb. 10, 1859.
ge, Phillips,' of Pennsylvania, is making a
strong effort Ico revive thottariff of 1846, with a
good free list, and Ili eeiflos on ceitivin articles.
In this be will be assisted by Whitely, of Dela-
ware, the Conneetiont Democrats, and other De
moorate outside of our delegation. Success to bins.
The spirit and determination of the Democrats in
caucus, on Wednesday night, have had is very
sensible effect in all quarters, and I will not be
surprised if something practical is done, after all,
with the tariff question before the session closes.
The rumor is revived, to-night, that Mr. Dallas
is to be recalled from London, and that a very
extraordinary appointment to Mexico, in place of
Forsyth, resigned, is contemplated.
Gen. Cass grows more and more feeble. Hie
family are greatly distressed by hie present con
dition. Happily, he is surrounded by those dear
est to him—by Ile daughter, his son-in-law, Mr.
Ledyard, and others. He has lived to a great
age, and will die deeply regretted by all good
men.
The President boasts daily of his excellent
health and enormous appetite. It is his evident
ambition to live long enough to do the most harm
to. the country.
Oregon will be admitted before the 4th of March,
but General Lane will not get the six millions for
the Washington and Oregon war debt. This is a
luscious plum, but it will net be plucked this ses
sion.
As I write the Senate is debating the tariff, and
the House Grogan. The two branches will hold
night sessions hereafter—at least the House.
The idea that Mr. Buchanan has ever intended
to recognise friendships must be dismissed from
the minds of those who have been silly enough to
entertain it. It is becoming every day more ap
parent that he never intended to be animated by
any regard for the men to wheat he has bean in
debted for distinction, and With whom, in a great
degree, he has hien associated all his life. If you
will cast your eyes over the country, and along
the list of those who have triiked this man, inclu
ding even the men -who oontisme to keep up the
appearance of confiding in hist, you will find how
true this remark is. No statesman in our country
has ever proceeded upon the theory-of sacrificing
friendships and of conciliating enmities—none
save Mr. Buchanan. To illustrate : with the ex
ception of a few old stagers, who have been Willing
to tolerate his heartless arrogance for the sake of
obtaining places at his hands, (I forbear to men
tion chair mimes, inasmuch as most of them are
Very needy men, or anxious to be considered
near the throne for selfish or ambitions par
poses,) no sham exit be pointed out who is sin
'.erCly attached to :Tames Buchanan, either in
Washington or elsewhere. At his own home in
Lancaster; . you well know, he hail scarcely a
friend. Hardly a Lancaster faho ie aver seen at
the White House) and hone of-the men who are
kfidetn to have adhered to the fortunes of the Pre
sident in those dark days, when he crouched at
their feet begging for their support. This is not
because of personal disappointment, but only out
of contempt for the man and contempt for his
policy ; for be it remembered that no man in our
day, not Oven Jackson or clay, ever had more dis
interested friends than be who now freeies himself
and hie visitors in the White Hoist, and doles out
his hospitalities be ip eitely cup he presented
•isere filled with poison. What the condition
bf affairs is in Philadelphia I need not ta
llest. Even the people who field othoes under
Mut t while th'6 , may lbtlr, do not admire or esteem
iglu., aid of those who do not hold (doe, soaroely
one can be found among those who were proud to
be numbered as his friends three years ago, who
does not express sorrow or indignation at the

never had , any strength, he is cheated by the
wordy compliments or those who hold ot. etpeot to
obtain his patronage. In Washington, t venture
to assert that the President cannot point to en

I are supposed to be the neatest to him, and yet
those who iinovr these gentlemen shrug their
' shoulders at the *light* suggestion of any cor

twenty thousand dollars to elect him, noises' crosses

this? I will answer, Mat IV& Buchanan desires
to hate no friends. Re prefers to beiieolated and
alone, and to lc'ek around upon the wreck of the
great party which eleotisd him, Droud of the ruin he

PROFESSOR MITCUELL'S SECOND LECTURE.—
The rileot of the first lecture by Professor Mitchell,
upon our citizens who heard it, with flatteringly indica
ted In the largely Increased audience which aeFerubled
to hear him at Jaynehs Hall last evening—the main
floor, the platform, and part of the galleries, having
been completely filled. The subject of the lecture, het
evening, was, "Is the great Architect of the Universe
the God of the Hebrew Scriptures ?" and the lectu
rer's treatment of this momentous inquiry, we may fay
was fully worthy of no vast a theme
The great question attempted to be settled, as bearing
upon the subject at Issue, woe, whether the laws or
matter which prevailed fo one part of the universe
were applicable to all the rest ; and the wonderful
mess of evidence adduced in Illustration of the affirm -
t've of this qua floc', we think, could have left but
little doubt in the minds of those who beard him,
that one great, all-pervading Power regulated and
controlled the whole We have • not room to toilets
the lecturer through the multiform arguments pre,
Booted to illustrate his theme ; but if we are not greatly
mistaken, the impression made upon the audience but
evening will tell Fain more palpably in numbers on
Saturday evening, at which trine Professor Mitchell
will tale up for hie eubject a critical investigation of
the Astroutinuicat allusions toned in the ifebrew Scrip
tures, especially those contained in the
_thirlpeigthth
chapter of the book of Job. A rich trust may be an
ticipated.

117" hirSsue. J. Benner/ Co.: I cannot refuse to
elate the salutary effect in my own .aggraysted *sae of
your .•ccalleut Hair Oil—(Cocoaine )
For many months my hair had been falling off, until
was fearful of losing it entirely. The skin upon my
heal became gradually more and more inflamed, so that
could not teach it without pain. This irritated eru
dition I attributed to the use of various advertised hair
washes, which I have eine been told contain oamphene
spirit.
By the advice of my physician, to whom you had
shown your procees of purifying the Oil, I commenced
its use the last week in June. The first application al.
layed the itching and irritation ; in three or four days
the renew and tenderness disappeared—the hair craned
to fall, and I have now a thick growth of new hail. -
I troet that others, similarly afflicted, will be In
duced to try the same remedy.
-
Yours, very truly, - -
