Notwithstanding the tarbulentinid threaten?, ing aspect of affairs fu '`the Conifiehul of the United States, weiAtive no flabt that the American Union is itrenglit to.igy than it has been since the - tido:TU(6 Of- the Federal:lon stitution. The Harper's Ferry tragedy—iana tio in its conception, bloody in its intermedi ate catastrophe, and full of melancholy and truthful admonition at its close—will be pro dn'etiVe Ott Were than' onegood result. It has awakened; in all its 'majesty, the irresistible affection of the American people for the Union of 'these 'States, and while it has enabled a sail' band of 'deflated men in either section '---the:oriti to demand secession as a remedy for , , , the' real or linaginary dangers of the South, and the other to inset upon thodeifleation of the leader of the late invasion—it has brought together patriotic men of all parties upon the common ground.of devotion to the harmony and to the rights of the members of. the Con federacy. This `concentration of sentiment and of actiintis the real rock upon which our free in atitutions may be said securely to rest. In Bach •an , hour the voice of a Southern extre mist in Congress, (who, because the people of MS .region may justly' complain of inju ries inflicted by a small , body of men upon a Jortion of their territory, sets np a claim for oftensire atid'unnecessary legislation,) will be regarded as the ravings 'of a maniac, and will be 'tie, little imeded by the great body of our conntiymen as tho cry of those who ful minate their denunciations against the Consti tution frem,another quarter of the Union. Tho agitation produced in the House of Representatives in regard to the Helper book belongs' particularly to this class of expedi entri. , That many of the sentiments of that volume are objectionable, no reflecting man can doubt; but it .seems to us that those who are 'so , fond of criticising •it, and of holding its endorsers, responsible for its doctrines, should look to their oten record, and inquire how Ikr the' argument which they employ, to damage ilifete endorsers Way be turned against themselves. It'ls only a few months ago since Kr. Jona; Levan was elected Governor of Virginia, in the face of the fact that not many years' before, he. had recommended the Pro• dectiou of a citizen of that State—Dr. RUY nrt--in ' which the people of Virginia were called upon to take means /for the abolition of slavery, in thai State: Hero was' a double ap peal from a Southern citizen on a subject nearest, to the hearts of the people of the South—an appeal alike, to the enemies of slavery in Virginia, and an appeal 'to the Abolition sentiment. Mr. LETCHEA attended the , lectures of Dr. Riterut, participated in a V debate 10 support of ' the doctrines of his pamphlet, and afterwards enrolled his name, among 'other Virginians, for the purpoie of raising a fund in order to give it a wider cir culation, The argunient thus sanctioned by Joint LITOEIHR was an adroit invocation against the institution of slavery, morally, so cially, and politically. When the name of Lwronsa was presented as a caudidate for governor of the Old Dominion, HELPIIIB.'S odi one bookhad been previously denouncid in the lenate of the 'United States, and had led to a Persdral difficulty on the floor of the House of Representatives, between a Southern mem ber and its author. It hitd been largely adver qsed in the Northern papers, and the circu lars paraded over thirnamea now so vehement ly denounced-by Southern members of Con pear had been forwarded through the mails to all Parts of the'Union. , , Under these circumstances, It was 'not surprising that, in the ranks of the Demo zmtle party, Mr. Levine-a was held up as de liberately responsible for the doctrines con tained in Dr. RVIIFTII'S pamphlet. Mr. Wise Ind his friends, through the columns of the Richmond Enquirer, earnestly and constantly, resisted his nomination. They represented Sim .as the author of incendiary doctrines. ,'hey published -.extracts from the argument which he had , approved, and declared that his lamination would be succeeded by a defeat at the petit; and that if ho should be sustained by in election, the enemies of Southern institu , dons would lea armed with an almost It-re didliale weapon. But, in spite of this resist- Mee, ad bathe face of the fact that alatimber )f Democrats put upon record their deter• - mination never to votelor Joax LETCHIER, on meant of the pamphlet in question r -ho. was nominated as the candidate for Go ' verner ; and then precisely the same argu ments used Jo' prevent his, •nomination by Democratic journals, were caught up by the -American ,oppoaltion, headed by tlte Rich mond Whig, to prevent his election. Mr. Galant, the American candidate for Governor, toe); distinct !sae with Mr. Larrenzit in re gelato this very pamphlet, and from 'one end of the State to the other it was made the pare inount question. Mr. Boooox, the I present Administration candidate , for Speaker of the House of Representatives, (who is no doubt' gravely alarmed at the doctrines of the Help er book,) was ono of the advocates , of Joins GIGTOtIEa, the endorser of the Ruffin pam phlet, and, wo think, labored alike for his °tabu/Alen and his election, certainly for the latter. 'Mr. Parroa, the young, bril liant, and• accomplished Representative from the F!otersburg (Va.) district, was, in fact, the leader of the Letcher party in the Democra tic Convention in the State of Virginia; and when, LETOIEER was nominated, it was every where hailed as an extraordinary triumph of that impetuous and gifted orator. Thus the t issue was broadly presented to the people of the Old Dominion, and, after en animated can vass, JOHN LETOIIBIi was elected by a decisive majority. , , It • will be answered that Mr. Lerman re. called his endorsement of the Ruffin pamph. let, explained the manner in which he came resign the letter, to, its author, and tho part which he took to raise a subscription to insure its wide circulation among the people. But this; explanation was so far from being satis factory to hie enemies in the Democratic party, that it was laughed at all over the State • and yet these very men were after wards among his most ardent supporters at the, polls. But has not Joins Suzan/at him self, in almost 'the same language employed by Joint Liman in regard to the Ruffin pamphlet, disavowed all participation in the. objectionable sentiments of the Helper book 1 -a book written, as Hon. E. Joy Idesmis has shown, by a Southern citizen. It is significant that among the moat intolerant of these who as. sail Air. SidaMAS on account of his alleged endorsement of the Helper book, ate the very gentlemen who so gladly forgave M. LETCHEII (a Virginian) for the part he took n assisting to disseminate doctrines scarcely less odious to the - sentiments of that State than those contained in the volume referred to, and so industriously adVertised by the orators on the extreme Southern side in the Amfirican Con gress. Their eonduct in,regard to Lemma contrasts so strikingly with that Which now animates them in regard. to Saunas, that it is easy to perceive that the motive which in spires them 'is of a purely partisan character. We have said, at the beginning of this and el°, that the Ilarpers Terry tragedy and its resulting excitement, while enabling violent men in both, sections of the Union to feed the fires of fanaticism, will reawaken and reunite the conservative sentiment, as we believe it will make it the interest and the ditty of every party to liberalize and to nationalize itself. But this great end 'is net to be achieved by allowing extreme men to speak for the two divisions, North and South. It is not to be acootriplished by the, attempt to' show that the people of the South are anxious to se cede from the Union, and by the attempt, on the Other hand, to show that a large portion of the people of the North are responsible for the late bloodshed on'the borders of Virginia. , , When .Tome . Baowar fell, nine :mot out of ten in the free States believed that he had provoked his doom, and howevir much they may have regretted the necessity of his execu tion; they could not but make all due allowance for the re.senttnent which fired and filled the Southern 'mind. It is an easy% and a cheap thing to locate the responsibility of a great na tional 'calamity upon a few Individuals.

Utiniands for im possiblO or otfenelve legislation will only isisken resistance: Denunciations of men AO claim to be devoted to;the rights of the ,States, whilst entertaining, their peculiar opinions on the slavery question, will only gather 'around them the pedpfe who send them to Congress. Tho South itself will not sympa thize with these tactics. One of the moat discreditable aspects of I present polities is the attempt of the Adminis tration of Mr. Bvou&NAN to seize upon the ex isting Union feeling and to appropriate it to its qwn base uses. If the course of the Washing ton Constitution—now being conducted under the 'immediate eye of the President—were carried out by Congress and the country, it would e.onvert the city of Washington into a garrison, and would prevent the entrance into the Federal capital of any Northern citizen. The conservative demonstrations in the great cities of Philadelphia, Boston, and Now York have already been claimed by the Administra tion as so many endorsements of thO scandal ous Territorial policy of Mr. BUOUANAN and his Cabinet. That in this city has been con strued to mean neither more nor less, and the patriotic Citizens who inaugurated and con ducted it have been insulted by being made to figure as incense-hearers to ono of the most odious oligarchies that ever existed in history. Now, it is almost beyond dispute that, whatever the opinions of the Southern people may be in regard to the Ilarpees Ferry affair, there is only a small minority in that part of the Union that does not unite in execration of the Gene ral Administration, while in the non-slavehold ing States the sentiment-Outside of the office holders—may be said to be universally in the same direction. All intelligent men have come to the conclusion that if the country shall be plunged into difficulty on the slavery question, the original guilt, and the shame of such an evil, will attach to the skirts of JAMES BUOEANAN. If the Republican party is re sponsible, he is ten times more responsible. If WILLSAM H. SMARR is entitled to censure for the statement of his doctrine of the cc irre pressible conflict" between the free and the slave States, then the President of the United States has earned for himself an immortality of infamy in attemring to degrade the Demo cratic party of the Union into a mere echo, and a dependent of a few secessionists in the South. The idea that such men as EDWARD EVERETT, Of liassachusettl, DANIEL LORD, of Now York, and JOBRPA R. Tsozasopp, of Pennsyl vania, while lifting up their hands and voices against fanaticism, are willing to subscribe to an indiscriminate attack upon a large body of patriotic citizens in the free States, and to ap plaud and approve the Administration of J'AUES BIIOUANAN t under the popular cry of devotion to the American Union, is as gross an insult to those distinguished statesmen as it is'a wanton depreciation of the glorious ob ject they have in view. No influence in fifty years has done so mush to impair the sent!. client that ccThe Union must and siren be preserved" as that now controlling the Fede ral Administration; and its attempt to appro priate the existing Union feeling to its own uses may well no 04E4 E 1 among the political phenomena of the day. Death of Theodore Sedgwick. The death of Mr. TaaODORE SEDOWIOK, of New York, is announced as having taken place, on Tlitirsday evening, at Stockport, Mas sachusetts. Ho was 'United States District Attorney for the Sou Stern District of New York. Mr. Szmwtox, grands.on of Judge Szixiwtott, of- Massachusetts, bad resided the greater part of his life in New York, whore he had extensive practice as a lawyer. He was brother (not nephew, as stated in an evening paper) to CATIIERINS MARIA SZDOVIteK, the novelist, and was himself author of a w Life of Ma'am Ltvlsosroti." of Now Jersey, pub lished in 1883 r and of an elaborate Treatise on the Measure of Damages, or an inquiry info the Principles which, govern the amount of Compensation recovered in Suits•at-Law. In 1840, he prepared a collection of the Political Writings of Wtravat I l zooorr. Ho contri. buted largely, on the social, literary, glut poli tical topics of the day, to various periodicals. Latterly, he chiefly confined himself to Har per's Magazine, and to Harper's Weekly. In the former, in January, 1850, ho contri. bated, to our Certain knowledge, the ad. mirable ,paper, entitled "English Wigs and Gowns, by a Barrister without Wig or Gown," in which he communicated, in a'pleaaant and readable manner, his person al experience (as amieus curies only) of a fort. night spent in England, during the holding of the , Summer Circuit, at the Assizes in Derby, Ipswich, Crydon, and back to London, whore Baron MARTIN was sitting win Chambers" as Vacation Judge. This was in July, 1836, and the sketch, ivitieh is only too brief, gives a graphic description of law practicp at tiro Eng. Rah Assizes. Mr. SEDOWIOK'S Essays and fu gitive pieces are worthy of being collected, and properly edited. - It may be added that Mr. Tuzononz Summit was first President of the mismanaged and unfortunate Crystal Palace of New 'York. He was about 66 years old, and no lawyer in Kew York was more re spected. Public Amusements: The Vespers of Palermo, repeated last night, for the last time, drew another great house. We are not surprised. Here is ono of tho latest of Verdi's operas, in whloh he has made his second and bettor style significantly apparent. here was a mire en scene actually unequalled in accuracy, splendor, and effect. here, also, was a oombina tion of four fine voloes—soprano, tenor, baritone, and basso—iniColson, Brignoli, Perri, and Janos. No wonder that crowds availed themselves of this opportunity of hearing, for the last time, this sea son, such an opera, so performed. Above all, no wonder that they desired to hear Colson—whole comeliness, as "a thing of beauty, is a joy for ever," and who, beyond all doubt, is by far the finest female singer who has ever appeared In our Academy of linsic. This evening, the performances will be of the combination or variorum order, the whole of .one opera and an cot of two others. The first act of "La Traviata" wiLl commence the evening's per with Madame Colson as V toletta, Sig nor Brignoli as .Alfredo, and Signor Amodio as Germonr. Everybody knows that, according to the story written by Alexandre Dumas, file, the Lady of the Onmelias, who is La Traviata in the opera, ought to be young and handsome. We have had her represented, on these very boards, by, a middle-aged and well-looking prima donna, so the change to such a graceful, beautiful Violetta as Madame Colson will be a change indeed. The whole of "Lucia di Lammermoor" will follow, with the now tenor and new baritone, ne Edgardo and Ashton, and Signorina Adelina Patti as Lu cia. This young lady is certainly the greatest vo cal phenomenon we have ever heard ; a perfect musician and a thorough singer, with a 840 voice, and rare art of execution. We are not so enthusiastic In our admiration as to say that she is capable, at her early age, of at once taking the place vacated by the death of Sontag and Bodo, but, we do think that the is a midi better singer, with a for finer voloo, than Malibran Garage was at the same age. In a few. years, when she shall have been half a dozen times In love—when she shall have experienced some of the other emotions of life, and when her ph.yeigve shall have been strengthened by advancing ma turity, it Is diffioult to say what Patti may not be. As it Is, she is a wonderful child, full of promise, and full of genies, also—if, which we often doubt, genius be required in a singer. The first act of "Pollute," which was produeed hero on Monday, will conclude the rather extensive programme of this evening. Mrs. John Wood is drawing immense houses at Aroh-street Theatre, where she bad a bumper benefit last night. This lady has considerable arohnase, vivacity, and adaptability. We should fancy her the very Qiieen of soubrettes. She bus a pretty voles, too, and an excellent method of using It. Without any pretensions to be con sidered a great comedienne or a prima donna, Mrs. Wood is an attractive actress and vocalist. She crowds Aroh-street Theatre every evening, and Wheatley h Clarke may calculate on her con tinuing to do so as much longer as they please. 111 Mrs. Barney Williams and her husband continue at Walnut-street Theatre, playing to the tallest of full houses, so to say. We have no ambition to venture into the crush In order to witness the per flamencos, most of which we have seen before. Snob an "Irish Boy" and-" Yankee Gal" as Bar ney and his wife, are not to be Mind In Ireland or New England. They are caricatures of the broad set °hunter, with a faint resemblance to reality. But they are exoessively amusing, and wo are compelled to laugh at them; hence, crowds flock to the theatre when they piny, and wo know no pleasanter sight than a very crowded house. Tue ()RSA?

Letter from Washington. Correspondence sr The Freud , WAitimeTbrr, Deo. 9 This morning the disunion arid "impending ed. eta" question has disappeared under the crowding exigencies of the personal matter growing out of Ctreeley's slur on Kellogg, of Illinois, and the reply of the hitter charging the editor of the Tribune with supporting Douglas, and other misdemeanors. Greeley has denied the charges and inainuutions of Kellogg, and Moßlernand drew attention to that foot; the result of which has been that the Illinois tuemberh have 000upied the morning. Kellogg said he wonid prove his oharge when ho felt it necessary. This brought out Logan, elm of Illinois, who made a moat erithisiastio speech in honor of Judge Don glee, and showing that all ,through, his career Greeley bad boon opposed to him ; opposed to him when he was battling with the Whigs of Illinois; opposed to him when fighting the Republioans and the Mulles ; opposed to him at all times and on every °melon. The charge was made to in. Jura Douglas in the South. Logan continued in a very warm strain to condemn the course of his colleague, and said, in illustration of ono of hie allusions to him, that he (Mr. L.) would not like his colleague, (Mr. Kellogg,) "slink like a Spaniel," upon which Kellogg moved towards Logan with evident hostile intent. He had al• most reached him, when there was a general rush of members to prevent an encounter. The Demo crats in a thick group surrounded Logan, and Koitt and other gentlemen in a friendly way took Mr. Kellogg away. It was pleasant and significant if the fundamental good feeling between the legis lators to see ultra Southernism rioting as the friend of ultra Northerniam, and vice versa. When order was restored, Mr. Mlles Taylor, of Louisiana, briefly addressed the Douro on the . neoeseity of stopping this dissuasion on a purely personal matter, and which had no oonneetion' t whatever with the actual business of the Homo. Ho hoped the Representatives would continue the election of Speaker, so that they might have the proper officer to keep order. Logan would not give up his right to speak. All order was lost; everybody spoke at onto. Several men,• bora moved to clear the galleries, and several other members charged the disorder on the which by cheering end hissing had given the ex. ample to the galleries, The latter now freely participated in the doings of the House, hissing those who proposed to gag their mouths or pinion their hands and feet, and oheering lustily those who took their part. Mr. Burnett, of Kentneky, said that the evil example of expressing opinions thus, which had done so mush to incite bitter feelings, since Monday last, was given by the Republiaan side of the House. Several attempts were made to induce Mr. Lc. gin to yield the floor. Re withstood them ell, 'and, after much excitement, continued in denun ciation of the statements made by Kellogg, the letter all the while. sitting with resigned stolidity to the torrent he bad inspired. Logan was proud to bo a Douglas man from Illinois, and declared that Douglas was the choice and representative man of the Northwest. A very spirited papsago I,polc place between Jobn B. llaskin and Mr. Logan. The latter, in reply to the former, declared that he would go for the nominee of the Charleston Convention under any oircumetanom Even if the Convention adopted a platform inooplistent with the popular sovereignty doctrines as enunciated py Douglas in hie paper in jfarper's Magasine, and andorsing the °aurae of the present Administration, ho will sup port It. Re Bald he was neither a Leeempton nor an anti-Lecompton Democrat, but Amply a Demo crat, and ho believed the Democratic party could do no wrong. Ilask;n was then interrogated, and came dietinctly out in perpiptanl opposition, under all casco, to tbo Administration, and Bail be would vote for a Republican Speaker, If that party came nearer to his 'views and doetrines than those who abided by the leadership of the Administration. He was an independent Representative. nig con stituents had endorecal hie inane. He had no col lar round his nook, and would app Independently. Ho reminded the Homo that tSii Republimns ir. the last Oongrers Wood glprionely by those who were fighting the battle spinet Imompton rot, ruptione. They had, too, thrown over their anti- quated notions when they voted for the .admlulon of Kansas under the Crittenden-Montgomery bill, and ho would rather take one from their ranks now, than yoto for a man or a party who bad voted for fraud and infamy; and the eztravaganoe of a corrupt Administration. This created quite a sensatlen. and the House immediately went into the third ballot, at whleh leave • them. SUL RIOLIIID!). Slalom OF A.

XXXVITII CONGRESS.--FIRST SESSION U. B. CAPITOL, Wasnuearcer, Deo. 9. Tho Senate fa not in eoselon today, having ad journed over till Monday. ROUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Morons, of Illinois, rising to a privileged question, caused v. be read from the oftiolal report the remark of Mr. Kellogg, of Illinois, that two years ago Mr. Greeley was planning and schem ing with Mr. I:Muerte in the parlor of the latter, to re-elect him to the Senate by selling out the poli ties of Illinois. Mr. Morrie also caused to be read Mr. Greelev's publication denying the truth of the charge, and while detesting the Douglas doctrines admired his pluck. Mr. Eirta,uoo replied that, but for the foot that he had been porennally assailed In an infamous ar- Cole in the Tribune, he would not have said a word, as he was anxious for the organisation of the House. De paid that brace Greeley and Judge Douglas had been put on trial, and he should hereafter pp:lsere the issue. Mr. OLDIE, o Missouri, was called out by a re mark of Mr. Ka !egg, that a report had prevailed that according to an arrangement, the Missouri eenatorehip was to bo given to Mr. Blair. Re be- Coved this charge against Judge Douglas was n falsehood, but he did not attach importance to the statement of Mr. Greeley, whom he believed to be a thief of character, and unworthy the notice of a potieman, either in or out of Congress. Mr. KKGLOOG repeated that as en Wile had been made, he would meet it fairly. Me disclaimed having made an attack on Judge Douglas, ho dealt with Mr. Greeley alone. Mr. Lortear, of Illinois, said that the charge was made to injure Judge Douglas, who is the date for the Presidency of the great Northwest. An effort wee made to depreciate Judge Douglas In the estimetion of the South by associating him with Mr. Greeley. From this time be would never again notice his colleague, who shirke front the re sponeibility of bringing forward proofs in support of his charge. When ha (Mr. Logan) made a charge In the Legislature of Illinois and was called for proof, he did not, like a spaniel, slink in the corner. OLYODT • YIBUT At this point Mr. Kellogg, who was sitting near Mr. Logan, deliberately advanced toward him as if with a hostile intention•, and Ur. Logan, per ceiving the movement, put himself in the attitude of combat. The members at once sprang to the /mono, some seising Mr. Logan, and others restrain ing Mr. Kellogg, amid the greatest excitement, member! all over the hall In agitation. The Clerk. amid the din and stirring events, loudly celled for order, and requested gentlemen to take their seats. Soon the two Illinois gentlemen were widely separated. Mr. Loden, resuming, said ho was rorfectly cool. Mr. Monate, of Pennsylvania, called for the Sergeent,at-Arms. Order woe finally motored. Mr. Talmon, of Louisiana, laid that the time for such nroeandinge should cease. [Applause.] Tho time has arrived when this speoles of diSO , IF• slim, which could lend to nothing but irritation, should terminate, and the representatives of the people should proceed to the election quietly and with dignity. They should have some competent pereon to preserve order. Mr. Lonaw said that ho had yielded the floor only for a moment. Gentlemen need have no ap prehension of a difficulty between his colleague and himself. [Ulnae Mr. TAYLOR said that the Mouse should fleet he organised, and then there would bo en opportunity to discuss all these matting in order. The interruption just quieted would have termi nated In a permanent interruption, and perhaps in an adjournment, if it had not been for the letup. Bitten of the respective Wends of the gentlemen from Illinois. Mr. LOQAN remarked that if he nes to bo blued, he would merely say ho had as many rights here to be respected as any one also. !Applause.) Mr. BARR, of New York, said that the applause should noose by clearing the galleries. Mr. GROW ) of Pennsylvania, hoped they would firsts stop it on the door. • Mr. ILORENCS, of NIIIIVITARIR, VIM they oould not expect the applause and hisses in the galleries to cease so long as the members sot the example. (Applause in the galleries. Mr. BARR said the influence of the galleries did more to irritate the feeling on the floor than the motion of the members. - . Mr. Bottnerr remarked, that when It was charged that the galleries were responsible, be said that the example of applause wee set by the Republicans on the floor. [Applause in the gsllerles.l Ile wanted the responalbillty to tall where it belonged. Mr. rARNIWURTR, Of Illinois, did 130 t want this ball converted into a bear-garden. Mr. MAINIARD, of Tenziessee, said there could be no means provided to prevent the applause and hisses until the presiding other was elected. Mr. LOGAN then resumed his remarks. De eulogized the high obaraoter of Senator Dough- s, and pronounced the charge against him as false In every reepeot. Mr. MCOLNIINAXD, of Illinois, produced a letter from Senator Douglas, who branded the charge as false. • Mr. Loam onumiented on the cotton of the Re• publloan party in Illinois in terms of reprobation. He alluded to the fact that, in Chicago, a meeting had-been held sympathizing with John Brown. and no Republican raided his voice against it. In con. elusion, he addressed a few remarks to the anti- Lecomptoo Democrats, urging thou, to act with the Demooratio party, and let past issues be buried in oblivion. • • Mr. - CLantr, - Of Now York. Will the gentleman Inform us whether ho approves of the Territorial policy of the present Administration? - Mr. Lona:V. I repeat, let poet issues sleep in oblivion. You know the position taken by Senator Douglas in Illinois, and you know he was triumph antly elected. That Is enough. Mr. CLARK. Will the Demeeratio nominee for Speaker, if elected, so organize the committees that Kansas shall bo admitted without restriction Mr. Loom I never asked him that question. It never entered into my mind. I have entire rou t/dune° In the Democratie nominee. Mr. Hamm; of Now York, inquired whether, in case the Charleston Convention should adopt a plat form in opposition to the VlOl - 8 of Senator - Douglas, as expressed in his essay published iu Harper's Magasine, and if that Convention endorsed and approved the conduct of this Administration, as well with record to its Kansoa policy as all other matters, he ]Mr. Logan] would support the nominee of that Convention. , Mr. LOGAN replied that he was about twenty eight years old, and had lived long enough to dis cover that the Democratic party never does wrong. [Laughterl. Ho had never known the Democratic party in National Convention to endorse a plat form that was not eonsistent with hie views. Hay- log that confidanoe, ho would not antiolpate what they might do, but would say he would vote for the nominee of thnt Convention anyhow. [Expres- CODS of delight on the .Demooratio aide of the House). Mr. lissirix. I will not. I will ask another question—Dees the gentleman believe that the Territorial Legislature of Kansas could exclude slavery or abolish it? Mr. LOGAN. I profess to be a Demoorat— neither Lecompton or anti.Leoompton. As I have I have buried all old party issues, and, ig noring these issues, I claim to be a Demoorat. I am for Stephen A. Douglas for President of the United States, first, last, and for all time. If he IS riot nominatod, I am for the next ron ; that is, the man who Is nominated. rApplatreerj Mr. Hamm asked whether he would Instate the nominee, if the platform resolved to protect slavery in the Territories Mr. LOGAN. Wait till the Domooratio platform does that, and I will tell rm. Mr. lIANNIN 'said that at the hot session of Con gress the Republican members of the Douse put tlremsolves squarely on an antl-Leoompton plat- form. He was in favor of the organization of the House, and opposed to all this rambling debate. He held in perfect abhorrence the appeals made to him to come to the support of those who sustain tho policy, of this Administration. With refe rence to the admission of K 813588, he would never vote for any man firr Spalikor wbq voted for the Leoompton pulley of the Administration, or who approves of its corrupt action—its proscription, as well in Illinois as elsewhere. Mr. Hama, in reply to a question whether he would vote for the Republican candidate, said he would vote for, any gentleman on this side of the House who entries nacre;; his platform than the gentleman on the other aide, who yoted for the Lecompton Constitution. I lay, further, that I will do nll in my power to prevent the organization of this House by the election of the Administration candidate. Mr. LOQAN said be came here 85 g Demount and expected to support a Democrat. tie had differed from childhood with the Republicans, and would never affiliate with them. . . Mr. 'Loma. If the Republican side of the nous° affiliate with me, I shall be moat happy to receive their support I came here as an indepen dent man, with po collar round my neck. If the Republicans put themselves on the popular sove reignty doctrines, whigh I believe in, and oppose the infamous extravaganoe ancid gross corrgption of this Admintstration ' I would sooner co-operate with them than with those whogo with the gentle men of the South in supporting!ft fraudulent Con efflut ion for the purpose of bringing a slave State into the Union. Mr. Frongwou, pt Peprisylvanla, said he would bike cemision at aOothey tynd pi answer his friend in regard to the oorruptions of the Administration of which he had spoken. Mr. Brat:lox, of Ohio, obtained the goqr, but was wilting to yield it if Um HOMO desired to pro coed immediately to the elootion of Speaker, pro vided ho could subsequently hove the floor.

AN INTERESTING AND INPRIESSIVIC r,ICRENIONy AT READINO.—In the Catholic church of Reading, on Thursday morning, was witnessed tblot Limit ,heautiful and impressive ceremony of the Church, the taking of the white veil by a number el young ladies. An unusual one at all (lines, end rtion lady so in a town like Beading, it stirs-tad to. gether in the church of the ltev. Air. linnzer a very large number of people front the county of barks, and various other portions of the State The church was so densely filled (bat it was iltifieult even to find standing mom. The decorations of the church wore very tasteful, and beautifully In keeping with the solemn ceremony that had called the audience together. The particular order to which these young ladies wore to devote themselves for life was that of the Sisters of Mary, one of the most Wen. sive and influential in the Church. A few minutes of eleven the young ladies about taking the veil entered the obureb. They wero preceded by the mother superior of the order, several other slaters of the black veil, and a num ber of children, about six years of ago, dressed In white. The young ladies were dressed in white eatin dresses, with crowns of orange blossoms, and white lace veils suspended over the body, each one bearing a beautiful bouquet. The costume—a complete bridal dress—was very much admired, and set off the personal attractions of the young devotees most charmingly. They took amts within the chancel, and immediately in front of the altar. Among thin clergymen within the chancel we noticed the Very Rev. Dr. Neuman, Bishop of Pennsylvania; Rev. 0 J. ii. Carter. of the Church of the - Assumption, Philadelphia; Rev. William O'llarra, of the Churoh of St. Patrick, Philadel phia; Rev. Mr. Hunter, of Reading ; Rey. If. Monahon, and Rev. J. Monahon. Mr. Jas. O'Reil ly, of the College of Philadelphia, noted as master of ceremonies, and assisted the clergymen in the religions ceremonies. At eleven o'clock, the serviaes commenced by the celebration of solemn high masa. Rev. Mr. Runner officiated, assisted by the Rev. Messrs. Monahon and Reilly. The responses of the choir were given most beautifolly. Indeed, we could not with Patios omit to mention the exquisite per formance of the choir and organist. Among the best-perfbrmed plum was an English translation of ,‘ Te Deum Laudamus." Rev. William ()Terra, of Philadelphia, then de livered an excellent discourse, taking as his text a portion of the 14th psalm. After alluding to the audience assembled before him, and the great pleasure ho enjoyed in seeing such an interest felt In the services, he said it was 4 beautiful eight to see theee young laffles surround ing the altar, arrayed in all the vanity of the world. They were to divest themselves of their worldly garments`—of the attraotive insignia of folly and fashion—and assuming the boy garb pf religion, to retire from the world. They were about to imitate the example et the blessed Virgin, who retired from the world that she might draw nearer to God. These young pampa decked in white wished also to draw nearer to God, and to 'collide themselves front the influence and attrne- Sons of the world--to follow the footstep; of their Divine Master pp the height' of Cavalry, that they might be oonetantly near film, with their hearts and sonic riveted to him These young Indies were about to give them selves to Ood, in the most perfect and unreserved manner. They wished to sacrifice themselves to Him, and, as far as their calling would permit, ex ert themselves in behalf of their fellow-beings. The world cannot appreciate such devotion as this. i t, t cannot conceive how a young maiden, reared in happy home, with all the comforts of affluence; e love of fond parents; the esteem of friends and acquaintanow and the buoyancy and hope fulness of youth, should leave home. parents, and 'moiety, for a life of self-denial, and devotion to the Saviour of all. No • the world is full of de ceit, tinderetanding not the purity and exultation of titc; chrietiau religion—eneoring and Bearing at egenp/ sue; a' this. These ypaung le f ties make a noble mid generous saorifioe to Cod—the most no ble man oaq make; yet tho world Condemns it— condemns their removal from home and society, and cerium the spirit that prompts the course and invites the eaorilice. Wby this opposition to these young ladles leaving home and society? Do we not see it even in every. day life? Do we not gee expatriation in every-day lily? Dien do it for a multitude of onuses, for in threat or for glory. We see fathers end sons, and husbands and' Mende, going far away from those they love, and making virtually a sacrifice of friendship's ties as great as that made by these young Dulles. Different motives Refueled them from those influenoing the men of the world. They retired to the cloister, not to gain the perishable laurel of transitory fame, but to gain the blessing and favor of Almighty fled. It was a beautiful end touching scene. Religion gave it that pomp and splendor becoming it. The young man loading his bride to the foot of the altar led her in the dress dictated by the vanity of thdworld: In such a dress did these young ladies appear at the altar foot, but for the last time. In ono ease, they passed from one state of life to another ; in the other case, the transition was. hoot the world to God. pat bumble dress they wore about to assume !Wan emblem of ' the humility praotiged by the sltviour. Bleared are they that praotioe poverty, for tbo Dori practised poverty on earth. The veil they were about to assume was only tba emblem of a probationary period, established to test their willingness and fitness for the final assumption of the vows of their order. Now It was a matter of choice—of orperiment. Before they assume the Anal responsibilities of their position, they must paw through pounce. The humble dregs of their ord e r was fittingly emblematic of Its vows. The veil ovcit the brow typified their concealment from the propped orthinv worttly, that they might more unreservedly worship God and enjoy ills glory. The duties of their order were noble duties The ohildren of Christ, they must practise Christian virtues, that 'bey may eventually give their hearts up to dod, They give themselves to the study and praotice of virtue for their own advancement and the leaven:tempt of others, They come here to smuttily their children and tem h * them the elo. mouth of faith. It was fitting that the prasente of those postulants, and the occasion of that cere mony, should be an occasion of joy to the neople of that church. They were the first from the fold of that congregation to assume the responsibilities of that positron—by God'e grace, he hope! they would not ho the lam. The little ones of the church should understand their duty. and the spirit of our religion. lie congratulated his auditors, and more especially their worthy pastor, on the caseation They should stay them in their choice, and help to build them up in the fear of God The reverend gentleman then passed a eulogy on religious houses in the Church, and sketched their advantages and necessity, and wont on to conclude his discourse. This was a happy day to us end a happy day to them. They were indeed happy— aa they were on the eve of oonsemmatiog the most tender and affectionate union between themselves end Master, The diseourse was very brief, and was listened to with the olosest attention by the large audience. The sermon over, the oereumay of consecrating the garments about to be assumed by the postu lants was performed by the Bishop. Tim six young ladle. prostrated themselves at the foot of the altar for several minutes in silent prayer. On rising they proceeded to rend, in a clear and die tinot voioo, the formula adopted by their order no making applioation for the veil. The Bishop In. terrogated them es to their willingness to accept the position, Mod proceeded to clip a look of hair from the forehead of each, which was thrown into a small basket carried by a little girl. This ceremony, whiois conciliated the formal re ception of the postulents into the order, was under stood to typify their formal renunciation of the vanity of the world, and their willingness to enter into the probationary period. This being con cluded, the y oung ladles retired to en ante-room, me componied by several of the order. An interval elepsed, which was occupied by the performance of a religious ceremony, and a beautiful piece of mu sic. The girls re-entered in the costume of their order, consisting of a long blue habit, a white veil bound around thp brown, and bulging over the shoulders. a white cape of mann, and slippers The Bishop gave them Intlivlduslly his blessing, nod placed on their heads the crowns of orange blossoms which had been removed In the former part of the ceremony. Tho following are the names of the young ladies assuming the veil, together with those adopted by themselves In entering the order: Miss Rebooaa Mathews, of Philadelphia, as suming the name of Sis.or Mary Cecilia. Mies Mary Reel, of Philadelphia, assuming tho name of Sister Mary Regina. Miss Mary Marron, of Philadelphia, assuming the name of Sister Mary Benedict*. Mies Carolina Gilbert, of Philadelphia, assuming the name or Mary Bohn. Mies Catharine Moroney. of Philadelphia, as. eumlag the name of Mary Henrietta. Mine Frances firant, of York, Pa.; assuming the name of Mary Elisabeth. • At halt past one o'clock, the ceremonies con cluded, and the six young ladles that had entered the church, apparently so full of life and hope, ar• rayed In the rieheat of bridal costumes, now depart ed In the humble habit of their order. The contrast alone wee singular and imprecate. Nothing exemplified more then ads the change that hail come over the spirit of their lives—the solemn 011mm:canoe that had been voluntarily am. cepted. The world and all its pletoures, lie temporary enjoyments and sinful fascination!, hail been renounced, and forever apart from anything that might contribute to wean them from that life of pure and humble devotion to Christ to which they bad devoted themselves It was a hard thing to console° that no moult had been sacrificed—that sit much could be sacrificed—hy those PO young and bountiful.
