" It WM powerful in ili honesty, and received additional force from the purity of diction, and elevated dignity which oharaoterised lie manner as Well'ae its matter. It was listened to with more determined agiention by the Southern members than any speech on their own side, with the exception, probably, of thete made by Curry, of Alabama, and Lamar, of Mis sissippi. Indeed, I am Inclined to nay that more ittentionirks vouchsafed to Mr. ilioirman's speech, hismite the South tirat too much excited, and an tiolmited too numb of the sentiments spoken hy' their, 'Southern colleagues. The ablest men, and the oldest in the House, were well aware that Hickman' would speak with emphasis and fearleasnass and dearness; for they remembered hie 'great 'exposition of the tariff question. New raembersovho hat% taken their one from the Con• ststutims, and: the Slaw and Union, expected, probably; a turbulent denunciation of the Execu tive; and lite South did not expect to be mot so fairly and in sash a manly spirit of dismission. Mr Iliokraan did 'argue from matters of policy, but stated matters of truth so far as hp comprehended them, and no one who heard him had a doubt of the speaker's most solemn conviotions in every ;word he uttered. He treated the South, as be Said be wettid wish himself to be treated, with respect, and where true meet understand eaoh other on this basis, they always listen with attention, and con sider with at least an attempt at. fairness. The galleries were not less entranced than the 'deer. You odd hear a pin drop, as the saying is, save now and then, when Leake, of Virginia, a gentleman wbb is very easily exoited, vvonld pttob himself uneasily about, and demanded the kind at tentions of his colleague, Mr. Garnett, to pacify him. As Mr. Bloke= went over the compromises and stated the dirges wbieh the North would make to the South, and hoes answered by the latter, there wu • vivid and almost breathless Intensity of earnestness ell mend. Then again, u he--die. claiming any opposition to the rights of the South —,deolared he would treat It as a younger sister; would give her more than her , rights, as ohs was the weaker—the leading gentlemen, to whom be teas speaking, opened their eyes very wide and moved uneasily. Again, replying to Gartrell's (of Georgia) Impetnone query as to bow the North eonld prevent a dissolution 'of the Union, Rick- Man'eanswer was 'deltvered with nob a decorous conviction of its truth, That it took away half the etingeohreyed by actual fasts. It really was a most remarkable speech, and one which ought to be read in its entirety. It le M oult to give a proper idea of its power. One may differ with acme of lts conclusions, or probably to some extent deplore the exigencies unto which .thei c conclusions may drive a man of Mr. Mink• man's temperament but all must admit its ox• Goading power,isnil feel the oonvietiou that snob a speech must damage the Administration, even more effectually then the speeches and artiste/ of the apologists and followers of Mr. Buchanan. Mr. Sickles has occupied two hours this morning in a reply to Mr. Rickman, denying that the South Violated the compromises; and informing us that the Missouri "Compromise" was not a compro• miss, but an experiment. Me predicted the fall of the Republican party, and defended the State of New York from the charge of disloyalty ineen- Solent. It was expeoted that Mr, Clark, of Missouri, who declared yesterday afternoon that he would oppose taViwything until ft vote was had on his re solution, introduced on the drat day of meeting, would carry out his throat this morning. Ile did not, however, make any move towards "smoking out those who would not vote with him, and lir. Sickles took the floor. Mr. Garnett B. Adrain followed In denunciation of the article in the Conniention of Saturday, which he characterised as Insolent and impudent. Beheld btr. Buchanan responsible for that article ; mid—addressing the Administration side—how can I vote with you who endorse the sentiments of snob an article? If they endorsed that paper, and the °barges which it had made against the anti- Lecompton Democrats, how could he join with them in electing Mr. Boaook, the Administration oandidatel 80, for himself, dtd not ask the Con- Jititution or the Administration to endorse his De. nal:essay. Ilia constituents bad endorsed him. That paper and the power behind it bad read him out of the potty forhts autton in oppootttoo to the Leoomp• ton fraud, but his own people had sustained him. Be quoted with offset from Mr. Buohanan's letter of acceptance touching the rights of the people in a Territory, and also from a speech by Alexander 11:121tenbena, in support of the, dearth* advanced by Mr. Buchanan, but afterwards forsaken by him. He paid a high tribute to Senator Douglas, and showed how that statesman drew a distinct line between squatter and popular sovereignty , The former was the exercise of natural rights without • law—the latter the exeroise of rights un der law. In reply to an interrogatory by Mr. Barnett, of Kentucky, Mr. ,Adrala said that he would not vote for the nominee of the Charleston Convention if be did not hold the views on popular sovereignty (m -ins/04 by hint today—the views held by Mr. Ba. chanan in 1856, and the Southern statesmen who spoke on the 'Kantous-Nebreeka bill. In reply to another member, ho said he had been read out of the .Democratie party by the Administration, and he wattot to be read Into it at the bock of Mr. Brahman. He, therefore, could not support the Administration candidate for Spoiker. He do fended himself for not going into the Democratic caucus. Be could not do it without debasing him self. - He made a very strong Douglas speech. Mr. Clark interrupted Wale say that he bad reason to know that Douglas would have been gru dged If his friends In the House had gone Into the Demooratte.caucus, to which Mr. Adrain very per. tinently replied by another query. Knowing that desire of Judge Douglas, as Mr. Clark did, why did he not go into the canons? No reply worth noting. There is great colonel manifested both on the floor and in the galleries in Mr. Adrain, whole en• gaged in klively passage with Burnett, of Ken ' tasty, as I sin about to close. Acnde►nr of Mane. Verdi's opera of Rigotetto" was played last night, for the Scat time this season—we say played, because Madame Colson and Signore Stilton! and Ferri really ',Lave great dramatio aa well as groat vocal 'power. They rang admirably also, and Madame Strakosob was fully up to the mark in all respects. In the third sot, the quartet, which •heeofoar singers executed, won the heartiest and best•deserved encore given for a long time within these walls. In particular, Madame Colson's exe. Sutton was extremely good. She Is by far the best prima donna we have heard for years. signor Stigelit acted as well as sang wall. Ile makes love (stage love, we mean) aa if he were in carmen. Signor Ferri was sometimes even grand in the passion of itigoletto, and was much applaud. ad. At the close of the first Act, Colson & Ferri were <tailed out; and again after Aot IL The ex quisito'solo Can, tome," which Cohen sang in Aot I, was nearly drowned by the music, though her exquisite rendition drew down the house ; but Verdi's besetting eta is brassy loudness. On the whole, the performance was a decided fume's, so far as depended on the artists. - - *When " Rigoletto" was first produced, at Venice; in 1851, it exalted a great deal of admira tion, and Verdi considered it his chef d'cruvre, until he subsequently composed the Trovatoro and the Blellter, Vespers. ' It was fiat performed in this otty, in January, 1858, at the Academy of Music, under the management of Mr. E. A. Mar shall. ' The prinolpal characters were oast time: Gtilieta i by Madame P. Lagrange; The Duki, by Blgnor Dignardi; Rismittro, the bacon, by Sig. nor Tatanelli; 21fagetaten, by Madame D'Angri and Syarafuesto, by Signor ROOOO. It will be ed. milted, we think, that the oast last night was very greatly snierior. In fact, the present company is, , heyond all doubt, the most complete, in all respoots, that has ever visited this oily. The operas which they bring out aro better sang, better noted, and bettor placed on the stage, than any we have had before Are we to let this contlanY leave us, after a fort. night's performance, solely and unmistakably be cam Philadelphia, with all its boasted taste and feeling for Italian opera, will not support it? Tho prices of admission are from a third to a half less than the London and Paris prises. We do exproar a hope that Mr. Strakoech will find, in the receipts of this, his second week, sterling reasons for ex. tending hie season until Christmas, as he originally intended. This evening, we ebell once again—and It is said for the laat tline—have the gratification °nearing that wonderfully gifted young lady, Signorina Ade- Ilna,Battl. She Is a safe object to prophecy about, and we predict that, should she visit Europe, so to likely, she will make a sensation them not Inferior to that Which Malibran awakened. We 'ball bear her in" ,, La Sonnambula," Bellint's moat felieitons and most generally acceptable production, Aria is a part which might have been written for her, and the fine quality of her votes exactly suite the dellelona melodies which the ootoPeser has written to express her love, her sadness, and her joy. Brignoll will sustain the oharaoter of Rhino. and Amodio will take his familiar r6le of Rodolphe. It Will be Signorina Patti'' last appearance in thin ellY.

Mr. Roo, of New Yprk, Presentetk a pitition from Devi Tiemkon, Mayor of New York otty, and a hun dred and three others, favoring the pas sage of the homestead bill, and opposing a monopo ly of the public lands, Mr. MABOE'S (of Virginia) resolution to appoint a committee of investigation, to inquire into the Harper's Ferry insurrection, tbeicatne up. Mr. Onair, of Alabama, said be wished to know where we stood. Let there be no concealment. The Senators on the other side profess to respect the constitutional rights of the South, and declare they will preserve and maintain theip. If that declaration be sincere, and,tho Ropuldbian patty will hoop their pledge, hit hens° for [ complaint. DU the Sotith has good reason to distrust these professions when the conduct of -the opposition Senators is so different.. One Senator treats the whole matter with a levity whleh *Mild bo offensive if be did not aliraYll treat every sub jest in the Santa &Oaf; and ho will probably die like Rebottle, with a jest upon his lips, and never wake to the responsibility of life and death until he is sailed to Judgment. Another ridicules the oowardice, weakness, and impotence of the South, in suffering a handful of men to seise the arsenal at Harper's Ferry, in the face of fifteen hundred in habitants. Another entertains us with newly-dia. *Trued opinions of Veshington, Jefferson, and other fathers and framers of the Doclar*tion of bilependenoe and the Federal COuititntibli, dis approving of slavery., Abottoth endeavors to ex cite doucestio dissension and discord within our own ranks at the South, by appealing to the non slaveholders to come to the support of the ' Republican party, professing tit Vindicate their rights, and rescue theta from the curse of slavery—thtis Striving to scatter the dra qou'e teeth ever the plains of the South, in the hope that there will spring up armed mon. Others would frighten us with fierce and brave words, threatening us with coercion, to submit to their ar. thority—no matter how uneonstitutiOnal and op pressive. These are 3 / 4 1'0 bIrthiAZDS of fraternal at- Notion, reopen, and regard for the South which yen present us. Wendell Phillips has said, speak ing of the foray in Virginia, that it was the natu ral result of anti-slavery teaohin and, for one, gs he expected it. Mr. Clay admired his oourege and candor. It was the truth. Others had predicted the same things. He then quoted from the remarks of Republi• cans, showing their hostile feelings toWarde the Swath. Governor Chase had ask be hated slave holding and alaVeholders, and his colleague here had said substantially the name thing. Mr. WADE, of Ohio. Does the Senator refer to . . Mr. CLAY, of Alsbadaa. tee, sir. Mr. Wane. I *Mild 'like to have him give my language, and enmity the time and place. Mr. CLAY. If the Senator was not misreported, in a smolt delivered in the State of Maine in 1545 he declared that the North And South h,ated each other ac cordially as the Rnglish and Russians, who were then engaged id the Crimean war. Such a aentitnent ban btan often avowed in different len 4nage by the Senator from New York, IMr. Se ward.] The Republioan party in the North have opposed slavery by non-action, refusing to enforce the constitutional guarantees, end alto by- un friendly legislation For many years tubs, negroos have been stolen, shill* by individuate or organ. iced bands of predatory invaders. sometimes openly and shamelessly, and at other times secretly. Vot the Northern Staten refuse td ekeitite the fugitive slave law, and endeavor to throw obstacles in the way of the Metter who seeker to recover that species of property. Who among the Republican Senators would rise and say that ho condemned each a loam of policy ? Mr. CLAY panned ford id t'. None being given he proceeded ttf bay that the enema of Senators showed that all would encourage these deproda. tions upon slavery by non-action. All admit that their Legislatures are right in endeavoring to de. itroy slavery as far as they dare to do it. Not con tent with non-action, they have actually gone oo far as to adopt unfriendly legislation, In liassaohn. setts and elsewhere, Mr. Dooetttest, of isoonsus, stated that the Constitution of the United Stateb, PioperlY obn strut', gives Congress to pane tbPate a fugitive. slave law. It Simply' inhibits the States from dis charging the fugitive trout service who may be held by the laws of the State from which he es ea 8. Mr. CLAY said that be Weida hter Into no 00n. *Stational argument reseahlint the fugitive-slave law of 1850 or 1793, but the Wisconsin Legislature has never passed any act for the rendition of fugi tive slaves. Will the Senator say here that be would advise his Legislature, in the absence of Congressional legislation on the subject, to pose a law for the punishment of those stealing our ne• gross, and provide for their rendition? Mr. DOOLITTLE, made no ansvfor. • Mr. CLAY proocedest You violate rho theatre slave law tamales you de not retard It ab hunt notional, and yet you »Ili DOB tie adt for the put ' pose of securing tot tts Out rights, aoleninly guaran tied to ue by cat fathers and yours. He argued that the Republican principles, logically, carried out, 'would lead them to seek the abolition of slavery in the District of Cohnibit, and alluded to ,the refusal of that party re, rote for the Amisted claim. They seek to degrade the South, and then menace the Southerners with the halter and hangman if they dare to refuse to submit to this degradation. He knew, how ever, those who were foremost he threaten Imo generally the hireimebt tt , execute. He would indulge in laithabe nor would he make any , pre diction" orpromise for own State; but if she be p faithful to the principles she has professed ; if she be true lo her own interests and honor, and do not prove recreant to all that State pride and political Integrity demand of her, she will never submit to the domination of the Republicans. lie hoped that the South, being now forewarned of the putposoe of the Repablicaos, would prove in the hour of trial to he forearmed. Mr. Gime, of California, that the Sena tor from Alabama had expressed t o Vigra of a vast majority of the Southern people n saying what would-be the ineVitable notion of the elaveholdbmg States in the °Vent of the election of a Republican President. Entertaining these views, be would be faithless to his trust, if he did not add his voice of warning at this particular junoturo. There was a great mistake existing in the bait-slaveholding States in regard tq the hettite of the public senti ment &nth, and the throats of secession, were re. garded as unmeaning. He was convinced that there was real danger, and urged the Republicans I no limier to maintain principles which, if success ful, con d only and in the dissolution of the Unipp. He believed that the slaveholding fita i tee Vrerb able to establish a separate and indill B incloitt Govern - I ment which would be litipteghable to the amanita of any foreign Poirot. They have all the elements of sttength in themselves, The geography of the Southern country has not been looked at. While theAtlantle seaboard of the Northern States ' is only about nine thousand miles, by the Coast Survey report, it would be seen that the Southern States have twenty-three thousand miles, giving ' them an opportunity fur an irnmenso commerce. Properly fortified, they can defend themselves against All enemies. He spoke of the affection bo. tween the slaves and masters, which, at the North, ' was not appreciated and understood. It was mei nently demonstrated at the recent invasion of Ilar per's Ferry, where the slaves were seen fighting for their mestere, or running home for protection, This sentiment is universal throughout all the Southern States. Not only do the slaves not seek their freedom, but it is a curse to thorn when they get it. The free negroes • either in Hayti or the Northern States have never been so happy, enjoyed so many privileges, or so nearly approached civili zation, as the slaves do in the slaveholding States. Some Senators have proposed to hang those who propose to secede from the Union. Who are they going to hang? One mentions the Southern On. venters, But how aro you to get at them? Of course, the Southern States will put themselves in a position to resist invasion.

The Southern States must meet this Ftestion as presented by the Senator from Alabama r. Clay) to-day, because the organization of the lepublioan party looks to the conquest of the South. It Is a sectional party, having no existence ' the Southern States, If a Republican President is elected, bow will ho carry on the Oovernmentin the Southern Stew?

Mr. Eine, of New Ilainpshire, said that if what the Senator from California uttered be true, we are not in- Union now. That Senator had urged the majority at the North (for none but a majority I could eleot a President) to forego their convictions, their sense of duty, and public policy, and, like the French Parliament of old, which merely registered the decrees of tho Monarch—so the majority at the North were asked to register the decrees of their Southern masters. If the free ex premien of opinion by the majority in this country would result. In a dissolution of the Union, ho wanted to try the experiment, and use If he was a representative in the Senate of such craven slaves that they can be driven from their convio. tione by such threats. lie believed he represented a people who could not be coerced. Mr. Owes replied, alluding to the circum stances attending the admission of California. All be wished to say was that there io danger in the present course. And Is it not better to panes be fore the parties get so much excited against each other that it will to impossible to erode. recon ciliation? Mr. Witsou, of Massachusetts, thought there I was some mistake about Governor Chase having said he bated slavehoiders. Ife had known Clover ' nor Chase long and well, and ho was the last man to use such language. For himself, he repudiated I the charge that the RePublionns of Massachusetts hate alavehoiders. Yet, what are we to think of 'Om feelings in the South towards the North, when advertisements appear in the Richmond papers of , faring rewards for the beads of Republican mem- I ballot Congress? The declarations that the Union is to be, dissolved if the people of this country l etteees to sleet a Republican President are received I Mhz, froe States as they should be received, with the sternest condemnation. And such declarations here, and in the Rouse of Representatives, have aroused not a poor, miserable, cowardly spirit of servility but a manly spiritist freemen determined to exercise - their own constitutional rights and express their opinions publicly and at the ballot-box. Union-saving meetings aro of no earthly signill canoe. Helad nettling to say against those po litical eunuchs Who gather around ouch meetings, for those meetings do not weigh a feather's weight In the mass. Boston had gnome for the Republicans in the recent election, and this Union-saving meet ing held there was enough to produce that result. Notwithstanding these throats on the floor of the Senate, Massachusetts would give fifty thousand majority for whoever shall be nominated as the Republican candidate for President. • Mr. CLAY. lie could go further than he bad done to show the aversion and dislike—if hatred was regarded as too strong a word—fur slave holders as well as slaveholding. Ile would quote from the speech of Mr. Selena, whose talents and ability give him undisputed claire to be the lie. publioan leader, in which he said : " The world without sympathize with the servile foe." That showed that in ease of a morello Insurrection, Mr. Seward sympathized with the negroes against their masters. Mr. Went:, of Ohio, obtained the floor, and the Senate adjourned.

The late Diatriet Attorney of, New York, Air. ; Me- , Koon, gave as his opinion, that mote ,eipeditions were fitted out and ettitalfied by Northern capital than irdin any other part of the Union. As to the charge that the South had broken the Missouri Compromise, be argued that it could not be called a compromise. It was an experiment, and had ceased to have vitality en the quattor where alone It could be hetained. When the vio lent and Molted feeling produced by the repeal of t he Missouri restriction shall have muted, the North will, as heretofore, regard the principle of the Kansas-Nebraska bill as congenial to their conviction, and on which the beet hopes of the patriot can rest, and as entirely fair to all portions of the Confederacy. Ile maintained that there had been no violation of the compromises of Me and 1801. The gentleman from Perinsylvaala had said that the groat question to be presented in the next Presidential election was, shall Mater, be allpwed to go into the Territories?

An appeal was be log made to him to rally to the support of Mr. Ike cook ; but bow could he, while he was charged by that paper with bribery, assist in the election of their candidate for Speaker? It would be a die grace to which ho never would submit.

Re had been called a Black Republican, an Abolitionist, and no Democrat; but he did not ask the Constitution to pronounce on his Demooraey. Ills Democracy had been endorsed by his constituents. This Administration had en deavored to read him oaf of the Demooratio party. President Buchanan, however, doss not stand on the Cincinnati platform and the Kansas-Nebraska act; for, in his letter accepting the nomination for the Presidency, he declared the people of a Terri tory, like those of a State, Mould decide whether or not slavery should exist while it is in a Territo rial condition. Both wings of the Domeorsoy of New Jersey, in their resolutions, had deflated that the people of a Territory have the right to regu late slavery in their own Way, Independent of Congroasioani interference.. No candidate of th 44 Charleston Convention eetild receive he vote of New Jersey oleos he egrets to the prinelple de elated by the Cincinnati pletfonti. No Democrat could be elected who stands on any othet Man the platform of the Kansas-Nebraska bill., Mikes the Democracy of the South stand on this,,platforin, Ito rarely will the reins of the Government pass into the hands of the Opposition. They bate been told that if Black Republican President wee elected, It would cause a dissolution of the Union. This was a treasonable sentiment. The people bare the right to vote for whom they choose. If any attempt ho made to dissolve the Union because of the election of Mr. Seward, Or any other man, he trusted there would he patriot. ism enough on the, part of the people to put it dow n . They would wait to We what the condact of snob a President was, and then it would be time enough to further consider the subject. Bet lot the Democracy take Judge Douglas, who stands on the Cincinnati platform and the Kansas-Nebraska act, as interpreted by Mr. Buchanan in his letter of acceptance of the Presidential nomination, and no Republican can be nominated to the Presiden tial chair. In response to a question from Mr. Burnett, of Kentucky, Mr. Atinatx said that if the Charleston Convention nominates a candidate who does not entertain the views he had expressed, he would not vote for him. Mr. BURNSTT said that he understood Mr. Airsin Melly that he and his constituents would net vote for any candidate who does not hold that the peo ple of a Territory may, by unfriendly legislation, exclude slavery therefrom. Mr. AMON replied there was no doubt about 5, Mr. GARTIIBLL. of Georgia, was understood to ask if that was Mr. Douglas! position. Mr. ADRAIN replied that Mr. Douglas WIN able to speak for himself, as be (lid In the Barrer Ma gasno article, and in hie reply to Attorney Gene ral Black, and in that controversy ho thought Mr. Douglas got the better of the argument. Ti reply to the question, why he did not vote as the Illinois delegation did, for Mr. Booonk, ho said that per haps his position was not understood, Be had been read out of the party by the Administration. Mr. Betook is the candidate of the Adminis tration, and he was not to be read into it to ahoy the dictation of President Buohanan and those in power. Ile sated for himself, as he bad always done while holding a seat hero. Mr. CLARK, of New York, said that he had roe eon to believe that it would hare been aoseptabie to Judge Douglas, if the latter's friends such as Mr. Admit% and himself, bad gone into the Demo. erotic anemia [Applause Mr. Annals; said that if he had gone Into the caucus the result would have been the spent Mr. Mock, who does not bold the some views as he doom, would not represent him, and this foot would have gone to his constituents. As his friend, Mr. Clerk, knew that it would have been acceptable to Judge Donglae it he and others had gone into the canons, why did not Mr. Clark go Into it himself ? [Laughter.] Mr. CLARK replied that, at the proper time, be would give reasons which would be iecooptable. Mr. ADRAIN said that ho (meld not have gone into the caucus without debasing lime f. Mr. BURNETT wanted to know whethel Mr. Ad rain proposed going into the Charleston Convention. Mr. AMAIN replied that he should!not be seen there. Mr. Bosomy asked whether he would support the nominee' Mr. AMUR( replied that he would. if the candi date stood on the principles he had declared. In concluding hie remarks, ho expressed the belief that none of hie constituents approred of John Brown's ocentinet, And every Northern man who goes into a Southern State to !Metters with its rights, ho hoped the Southerners world servo him just as they did Brown. lAppleule.l But the people of the Southern States must mind their basilicas, and keep their hands off tie rights and Inatitntions of other States. An to the Union, in the language of Jackson l "It must and Rhea be preserved." [Applause. Mr. Mdtar, of Mississippi, asked Mr. Admit' whether, if the Charleston Convention shell adept the Cincinnati platform, he would support the nominee? Mr. ADBAIN said be would not, nor would his constituente,uniess the platform was interpreted to declare that the people of a Territory,Jike those of a State, have the right to decide the question of slavery for themselves. Mr. ITICKMAN said the North, in conetrulog the Cincinnati platform, hold that the people, in a Territorial condition, have the right to mind° slavery. The South construe it differently, that the people can exclude it only when they come to form a State Constitution. This Is the issue be tween the North and the South. I Be, as a Demo oral, would vote for no man, not even for Douglas, without an explanation. Mr. Merton Inquired what party he would co operate with in the election of Speaker? hir. Biome» replied, With any political senti ment against the Administration party; for he considered the sentiments of that party the most obnoxious. Mr. Mcßae remarked that the inference was that Mr. Rickman would co-operate with the Re publicans. Re then analysed the rotes which had been taken, to show that the responsibility of elect• leg the Speaker rested on the Southern Opposition end- the anti•Lecosuptonitee. Mr. Ernentnoe, of Tennessee, suggested whether if thirty-five or forty votes could be polled fee Mr. Gilmer, of North Carolina, the Demoorate would join their forces to his support lie said the South ern members could have no objection to Mr. Gil• mar, who holds a hundred sines. Mr. Molten asked whether it was fair that eighty-eight or ninety men should go over to twen ty-three? lied it been shown that Gilmer could got thirty votes, why did not the gentleman unite hie twenty-three with the Democrats, putting the responsibility on the anti-Lecomptonites to deter• mine the result? Mr. ETIIRRIDDI said they could toot the fact when it could ho theme that Mr. Boma can re oeive ninety-three voice. It would then be no dlr. fieult task to show how he meld be elected. Sotre of the Den:erste, howevor,'had refused to vote for Mr. &wick and ignored his Democracy. Mr. Ilitessoit, of Tennessee, said he could not tote for a Republican, nor could he vote for a man who endorsed the pottiest of Mr. Douglas, as the latter's doctrines are wholly subversive of Southern rights. wished to ask Mr. Booock whether be endorsed the views of Douglas, Stewart, and Pugh, that a Territory eau exclude slavery t h erefrom by unfriendly legislation ? would never su pp ort any men holding snob opinions. Mr. Mcßae replied that Mr. Becock had not possession of the floor, and amid not got it to an -ILaughterj Mr. kmartit, of niew York, said that be would never vote for any patron DU' Speaker who was not hostile to legislation, by Congress, for the pro teotion of slave property in the Torritories—wha was not thoroughly inimical to the abrogation of the laws against the Afrioan slave trade. And he must not be a man who would deem the election of a Republican as sufficient cause to attem pt a dissolu tioh of the Union. Ile would not say that Mr. Bo cook did sot stand on this platform. Mr. Mcßae replied that the Demooratio party did not make the reopening of the slave trade a questior.r Mr. Chitift was glad to hear Mr. Matta said, ad far as he was indiritivally oonpantod, he was fatror of it, epd would, at some future time, 1110, his reaebne; but sue was Dot the posttbiti of the Demooratid party in Mississippi or an - of the other Southern states. • Ir.

Mr. °LARK repliod that he would support Mr. Douglas. Mr. Mcßats resumed his remarks, which caused much good humor.

The committee appointed at a special meeting to take into ecesiderition the subject of removing the chamber of the Controllers to Eptitg Garden Hall reported adversely. and submitted several reasons for their action. The annual vent ef the present room is only $9OO, which includes heating, while the Spring Garden Hall is worth $30,000, and would rent for $2,600 per annum. The Pro. Sent re'oen is convenient to all the offices of the City Government, and Spring Garden Hall is distant from them. Councils, early after consolhiatiOn, assembled there, and found it so inconvenient that they fitted up Independence Hall for their use The members of the School Board derive their power from the people the same as the City Coun cils, and therefore the former entertain the opinion that the latter have no right to locate a place of meeting for the Controllers. The report closes with a resolution requesting the Commissioner of City Property not to expend the eum of 53,600 for alter:Wong of Spring Carden Hall, because it is a useless expense„ the object thereof sot being asked for nor desired by the Controllers. Tho report was agreed to unanimously, also a resolution directing that five hundred copies of it be printed and served out to the members of the City Council.

A motion to recommit the report of the com mittee, and that the oominittce be instructed to report, nil the several. works separately, 9 . 4 that eaoh book may be received on Ito own merits, was lost. The debate was then resumed on the original re- solution to strike out Greenleafs arithmetic, which Was lost. A lengthy_ report was submitted setting forth the advantages to be derived from, and recom mending the introduction of; calisthenics and gym tinstlo exeriiises in the various echdols, and ,pon eludes with a resolution asking the appropriation of $3,000 from City Councils for obtaining the no ocosery appurtenances for such exercises. The report was adopted. A resolution was adopted that when this board adjourn it adjourn to meet on the 20th inst. A reolution was agreed to requiring the Com mittee on Supplies to advertiso for proposals for the stipplying of books for the schools which have been admitted by the Board of Control.

Adjourned. I DESTRUCTIVE VIRE YEEITERDAT About six o'clock yesterday morning a fire broke out in a three and a half storied building in the rear of No. 220 North Second street, above Race. The structure was occupied by different mechanics, and the fire commencing upon the first floor. it spread rapidly through the entire building. The firemen were promptly in service, and powerful streams wore thrown upon the flames from the steamers. Before they °mild he übdued the build ing and its contents were destroyed or badly da maged. The fire also extended to an adjoining building, need for manufacturing purposes, nod the upperportion of It was destroyed. The build ing last described was occupied by Mr. Bush, ve neer cutter, and by Joseph Green, manufacturer of hominy. The buildings occupied by Mr. Bush and Mr. Green were owned by Mr. E. K. Tryon. His loss is covered by insurance. The building in which the flames originated was occupied by the following tenants: Frank S. Gray, refiners of gold and silver, and assayers; f. Jack son, wood turner; E. Kallenberg. machinist. The origin of the fire is Involved in mystery. An ac cident happened to the steamer of the illiterate Engine Company while she was on the rend to the scene of the fire. She was erossing Third street *hen the fore-axle snapped off, and the engine wan overturned, damaging it badly and obstructing the Third-street railway track for more than four hotirs. The effect of this obetruotion was to com pletely derange the business of the Second and Third streets and Rees and Vivo streets linen, and the care were crowded along Second. Dock, and Third streets for hours. They were finally turned off at Chestnut street, and taken along Chestnut, Second, and Market streets to Third, where they were again placed upon the track above the ob struction. A similar accident happened to the Washington steamer when she was proceeding down Race street. It is singular that these two groat rivals at the late fair should meet with the same accident, at the same time, but at different places. The loss of all parties is about 55,000, excluding the damage to the engines. Manetrre Iw Tug towxn Wanbs.---Tho workmen are busily engaged In erecting two squares of new market-sheds in Eleventh street, below Catharine. These improvements are much needed in thatlocallty, and will be rented annually to butchers, dealers, and others. There will be at least 120 atolls, which will be rented without a re sort to the premium system. The latter system Is departed from on the theory that It ts often attend ed by bail results from parties purchasing stalls on speculation, and afterwards holding them lay far an advance, during which time they frequently re main idle. It is designed to place ten butchers' stalls at each end of the two markets, and rent the intervening stalls to farmers and dealers. Already eight butchers' stalls at the corner of Catherine street, and ton at tke corner of Christian etroet, have been rented, and there are applications eufil dent to occupy the whole number remaining un sold. The names of thirty-five farmers have been entered who wish to occupy stalls . , and as soon ae this portion is arranged the market will be opened Ate ITEM ABOUT Warm—Since the lower section of the city has been supplied with water through the new thirty-inch main, the capacity of the works at Fairmount has been pretty fully test ed.Pfilost of the wheels have to be kept in constant motion, to keep the reservoir filled with its oust quantity. Tho Spring Garden works have horn no connected with the Fairmount and Kensington worke, that water can be supplied to all portions of the city while repairs era being made nt Fair mount. The Spring Garden works are now in par feet order, two new boilers having been put in the engine house, and the ineehinery repaired, so that their capacity is almost equal to the works at Fair mount. The clerks at the Register's office are now busily engaged in making out the duplicates for 1800, and the books will be ready in time to allow our citizens to pay their water rent on the let of January. The amount of assessment will be con siderably Increased over that of the present year, in consequence of the large number of new build ings erected, end the extension of water mains and pipes.
