Cha pin, of New York, delivered his lecture (revised and rewritten) on " Modern Chivalry," et National Mil lest evening, before a very large audience, who; judging from the hearty applause frequently bestowed; were evidently delighted, as Indeed they ;quid net help' being, its it was, in all respects, an effort worthy of its eloinent author. Ile was intro. dimed s and welcomed on behalf of the audience, by tile Rev. Win. if, Furness, and commenced his leeture at precisely eight o'clock, and closed it at twenty minutes after nine Ho opened with a reference. to the story of a ghost in a railroad oar, Which had lately appeared in an Bnglieh periodical: We were, said he, told that the age of chivalry was past, but it was his present purpose to show that oblvalrystadj bad not passed away . It might. with truth be said that every age olds the contents of all ages, It might be humiliating, but it was true, that there was a parallelisms between the instincts of succeed ing ages. Progress was not to be predioated upon the mere °accumulation of facilities. The glory of en age mu, not ip its Instruments, but rather in the height of its motives. , There was at the pre. sent limo a fashionable disparagement of the nine. teonth century, and it was in op pp rition to this that be wished to rest his lecture, He thought that it was quite as tiniest to traduce an age as to elan. der an Individual. We shopld Bud, upon oxami ration, that le the hest sense there was a genuine chivalry pertaining to the present. Idaosulay'a criticism, that the poetry of the world neoesearily retrograded with the progress of Faience and exact knowledge, was next reviewed and Minted by the lecturer, In the course of which severed elarsoteristic burets of eloquence were indulged in; which elicited much applause. Nor his own part, he could see no naceasary antagonism between the beautiful and the true. ' We must distinguish between special lines of ex oellenee and compound results. We must remem ber, too, that mph of our solenoe Is in transition. Our faith in Providence showed us that knowledge tends to goodness. Whatever, then, womightlaok achievements, it was not in any sense due to our Increase of knowledge. It was not true that knowledge Was inimical to the growth of virtue. It did not make evil. If it discovered ftwilities for perpetrating Awl!, it 'deo furnished improved means for its exposure and arrest • That evil was now being heaved up in bold relief was a signiii• cant fact, for we must remember. that It was al waye the moat sensitive conscience that was most agitated by the sense of guilt. g then, knowl edge wee not abstractly an improver of the heart, It 'fostered that which led to the same result. The ago olchivalry, he said, had faded away, not in a dimmer, but in a higher light. Whatever was really exoelient in its spirit was taken up In our modern divination, and this would load him to consider the characteristics of modern chi- , "airy. A general response to this inquiry might' not seem very flattering, but examining more closely would modify this conclusion. There were three classes of men which would elaint his attention: Men who have bad princi• pies; men who have principles only adapted to pay, and mon who cannot afford to have any prin. eipl es at all. There was always a recognised chivalry in the Rations of a man that is a , man. The moat die• heartening aspect of the case as It stood now, was the fearfaUprevalence of dishonesty in our politles— the palaver of modern diplomacy. Oar modern patriots—imittical Micawbers, always wafting for something to turn up"—ware reviewed without mercy. i The fact was, the times Wanted men, good men and true; men who would be felt as e lectricity is felt, 'whloli dwells unheard or seen in the summer air; for it must be admitted that this was a talking. age Nothing could be consummated now without at least one dinner and sixteen orations. Young Amato& was* brave ship, bit was loaded a little too much et the head. ' Rasta was another aharaoteristio of the age.

We were too likely to; be deceived by costume, and attach too much ImPortanee to broadcloth and patent leather. ,The great heart of the people, it was true, could never be brought over to this fess ides. ,11The lecture; bore paid an eloquent tribute to the 'memory of Alexander Von Humboldt.

U. 8, CAPITOL, WAIN/NW/ON, Doe. 14, 11159. , SBNATEL Mr. kfasox's (of`Virginia) resolution for the ap pointment of a epeeist committee of investigation on the Harper's Ferry invasion came up. Mr. Wanes, of Ohio, Bald that at first it was not his purpose to speak on the resolution. He made up hie mind, when the resolution was Introduced, that he should vote for tt—not on acoount of any 'particular benefit he SapPoiad Would remit Vomit, for b 6 thotight R would probably have the egad Of lisoreasing In Virginia the exiiitement, which ele ready seems to ho sufficiently etrongthero—at least let all preetleal purposes. But over this resolutiott the whole subject of controversy between theNortho ere and Southero'States'on the slavery questiob has been discussed, and allusions been made to him PersoOldil, in such terms as to render, it ease* ttal that he should reply , lie had no desire to get uti fromently to ,peak on this most hackneyed tab• tot. Ho lied, pot been very forward in throatiest mself before, the denote; but when measure of great importance hattlfeen premed he had been ooMpelled to give Iris views It wait said by the, *war of this resolution (Mr. Marion) that one grim( object of it was to elicit the state of Northern feel/ ing._respecting the invasion at liarpor'e Berry. Mr. Mose* desired to correct the Senator. That. assertion had been 0140 or twice ascribed to him to the course of this debate, but it was a 'mhuippree hension. What be said, was, that he wished to Ascertain from what source Brown derived the 'Nods and 000neel whioh led to the invasion. He ' had reason to believe that it came chiefly from the New England Stater). Mr. Wars continued: For the basest of purposes the great party to whiob he (Mt. Wade) belenxed had been charged with complicity in this a ff air, bitt he treated the charge with scorn and contempt It had been so entirely overstrained that It now fell* onl his erne without giving him a single emotion., Bat he knew whet the effect of aneb a charge weal& be in that part of the country where JOU , may exists with regard to the acts and motives of i Northern men. The only statements that can tench the ears of the Southern people are one dided, and the antidote to this charge they will never get. No man is allowed to express stall- merits at the South unless they are out and trim med to suit public opinion. No Northern man is how' permitted to go South unless he leaser, his manhood and independence behind. Under these, bireoleetanoes it IS not strange that Southern eenle are deluded respecting the state of the Northern feeling. They deem it Important to ex clude Ipoondlary doonmeate from Their midst, but he thought the most dangerous incendiarism was to ' be found is, the speeches ef Southern men, when they tell their people that the great party homing control of all the free States sympathise with , John Brown's raid Ile regarded - John Brown as insane, and asked Senators to dlserimi-. nate between the man and his nets. if the, State of Virginia feels deeply at thie incursion.' Into her territory, and the reorder of her citizens, what were the feelings of the Northern men a fa* years ago, whom relations and friends had gone to, a ferdietant territory, and formed oolonies there, weak and feeble, mattered through that wilder.. nem, when they found that it was the deliberate purpose .of.a gnat, powerfgl, and all-pervading party to drive them out, or coerce them to, obedience under institutions which they abhor red from the bottom of their souls ? They, I were driven out; they were murdered in cold blood ; their property was . destroyed. They ap pealed to Congress for redress, and they only got insults here instead of sympathy. When I state this, I state what Ide know. This Government did at least connive at that band of conspirators, who, arming themselves lawlessly with arms be, lobging to the Goyernment, invaded that peaceful ' Territory, took possession of the ballot-boxes, drove the citizens away from the polio, drove teem away from their possessions, and exercised tyranny over them. Het that took Place t good war , Off, and - did not create the same 'statement as when a limb • tar transaction Comes nearer home. In his judg ment, thtionly difference between that ease and this wee, that in the ease of the Kansas invasion it WAS made with no other purpose than to Wm , duce slavery there at all haserds,• and by force of arms i whereas, old John. Brown and his men, with a like onlasyful purpose, under.'' took to extirpate slavery fretn the eitete of .Vfee.) giallo The Free State men then got no oonsolal? lion from this Government, but one Senator used'l this language, "We will Embalm you—You are' traitors—We will hens twerp man of you." Mr. Wade said that be did not go back to these things for the purpose of justifying John Brown and his crew in the invasion of Virginia, but only to show ' why it is that the men of the free States, to a con siderable extent, do sympathise with this old hero. In the darkeet hoar of Hansa, when her rights were all in peril, and eyerythiag looked gloomy there, and the Federal Govetameet failed to Inter pose In bar behalf, then It was that old John Brown appeared on the stage of aotio'b, arming himself as wall as he might, and commenced to do that joss ties to himsel and follows that the Government hid denied. e did it With a heroism and deter minetion that ehallenged adreiration from hie friends, and even respect from his enemies. lie drove the "border ruffians" from the Territory, and conquered a peace. Mr.'Wede believed that Brown was maddened by the amines of blood be had witnessed in ]canes, for ha did not think any sane Man on earth would have uhdertaken the en terprise. Ile also said be bed never seen a single meson who justified Brown's raid, for the Northern people do not sympathies with aline: Re then proceeded to reply to Mr. Johnson's oritiolems on the Republioan platform. Mr, Wane said lie was, not one of those who sup pose all the aleveholders deeply orb:ritual, for ho knew how habit and °Worn modify the feel loge of men. Washington himself was a gave holder. but be expressed himself in hopes that that Institution might be abolished by some means, How long would he be permitted to remain in Vir ginia now and make such deolaratiourel Mr. Wads. . heel nothing to say when, slavery wee lietet the.

He under stood bow these things were, and Roomed no man because he was a slwreholder. He bad been ac cused of denouncing the Union ; her would like to know when he had done so? Mr. CLAY quoted from thippesell of Mr. Wade 1856, whorl he said " thlipretandei Union was all moretrieloue. There was not a business man anywhere, who, if he• had bob a partner, would hesitate to kick him out at once, and have done with hlst"—meaning mush a partner as the South. Mr. 'WADS edmitt. that he did make a pretty florae epee:lh, but d idnet Weir that his lazgasge wee correctly reported. • Mr. CLAY asked why he did not disavow it four years ago when It was quoted here, Mr. Wang. lam not in the habit of retreating in the fade of the enemy. If the speech was liter• ally repottrel, it was done not by a friend but by an enemy to the Sepoblleans. Mr. Otar. I sew it tn's nenipaper supporting his party, where it wee highly oo amended. Mr. Wane said that he was at the time alluding to' the irritation in consequence of affairs in Keneee, and the manner the pro-slavery oßgroesions were persevered in, the removal of the Missouri restric tion, oto., and then he declared that name some means could be found to prevent these things, it would ultimately result in jot What he was pillaged with saying, In making the different sections as greet enemies as two hostile nations. Mr. CLAY said there was stronger language than that in the specoh, and read another extract to the effect that there was no union now between the North and the South, and the only 'Overton of the Union wap to be found in divesting it entirely of all taint of slavery. Mr. WARR. Ido say now that there is no very aonsiderabledegree of good feeling existing between the different sections of this nation, and. I do not know to -day but what that sentiment, if not true then, Is very nearly true now. Northern men eon. not travel and do business in the Southern States, as I read in the newspapers great numbers of mer chants on their way Smith to do business have been recently sent back, not because there was any particular acausation against them, bat because they were from a section of which the South were exceedingly jealous. Mr. Wade proceeded to reply to the remarks of Mr. Iverson In re gard to Mr, Sherman. He said that in Ohio Sherman was considered ono of the greatest ornaments of the State, and Mr. Wade rejoiced to know that the Hepolillean party reposed the utmost oontidenee in him. They ley° founil noth ing in him but whet they can approve, and Mr. Iverson, after all his investigations, could find nothing more serious to condemn than that Mr. Sherman had recommended the circulation of Mr. Helper's hook. He would ask the Senator from Georgia if he thought there was anything in that book dangerous to any section of the coun try, or if it could not be safely put in the bands of any freeman of the South. fA peuse.l The Se nator does not choose to answer. ' Mr. lonelier. Ido not choose to stultify my self. by answering such a question In regard to this book. It is apparent to any man of common toned what would be its effects. Mr. Wang said that he hail looked the book through carefully; and found nothing but argu ments against Watery.. Unless such arguments were unlawful he saw nothing in the book but what was right and pro per for the consideration of all men who take an interest In Noah matters. Has it coma to this, in free America, that there must be a censorship of the press instituted; that amen cannot give cur rency to a book containing arguments that he thinks are properly addressed to whole classes of free population in this country? There at body of the statistical information in the bo ok is drawn from the census returns—a document in the ar chives of the nation. If the arguments against slavery cannot safely he made, that constitutes the greatest °Walden to the spread of that institu tion-he ever heard or. If we really have among nor an institution that we aro aberfehing and seek to spread broadcast over the land, so deli cate in its structure that a free people can. not have that intormetton concerning it whiter they crave, he said, It was an inference more fatal to that institution than any he ever hoard before. He proceeded to allude to the muttered thunder of disunion meeting his ears frees the Southern hemisphete in cash a Republican President was elected, Ile felt no alarm from that cause. This Union will not easily be dissolved. Gentlemen talk about Win a very businees.like way, as though it was a magazine to be blown up whenever they choose to apply the match, This fabrie has been more than eighty years in building, and will not he destroyed in a day. He voice of navigable rivers, lines of railroads, and other interests inter • lacing North and South. There never was so great end glorious a country. We are married for over, for better or worse. We can make our condition very uncomfortable, but nevertheless there is no divorce ment between us. There Is no way In which It can be effected, but least of all in the oontingeney mentioned. If you wait till a Republican Prat. dent le elected you will breve waited a day too late. I Why don't you do It now, when you have the Go. 'Ferment in your town bands? I say to you, be would be but a sorry Republican, who, elected by a majority of the votes of the American people and consequently backed by them, should fail to vindi cate hie rlstrtto the Presidential deli. Ile will do it. No man et the North is to be intimidated by threats of 41300114t0n, thrown into our teeth daily. Why do you do it? There is no law requiring you to give us notice of it; you had better do It at once without making threats. If a Republican President shall be constitutionally cleated, to pre side for the nest four years over this people, my word for It, preside he will. Who will prevent ? Mr. BROWN, of Mississippi, road several extracts from Helper's book, Showing its obnoxious cheroo ts*. _ EZILK. XICHARDS Mr. 11 , arm would not defend the scothoonts there expressed, but saw no harm in laying them before the country for consideration.

Mr. Wicsou stated extenuating eimumetances In Mr. Helper's caste aa cemmunioated by him. Ir. Or f ratipAtt, of. North Carolina, had heard very different veraloes of that story. ' MASOW, of Virginia, had no objection that, the people of the North should read "Helper's book, if they saw fit, but they had not/einem to circulate ilipt the South. So far as he bad examined it. It *lathe most vile sod false compendium of slander on the South he bad ever seep. The author ap peals to the non- slaveholders as a soparate class in the South, thus seeking to foment Masora. There is no distinetion in Virginia between the stare .holders and non.slaveholders as to nubllo policy on this question. This was shown at Harper 's Perry, where not more than one in ten of those who turn ed out to resist the invasion IlleTeslavettoldeTs. He went on to inquire what was the origin of the Repub. lipanparty,tracingit back to the Know Nothings and Native Americans. He said John Brown's invasion was oontemptibleonly_beeause ttfailed;but in view of the sympathy at the North and the persiatent efforts of this sectional patty to interfere with the rights Of the Smith, it was not strange that the Southern States should deem it proper to arm themselves and prepare for any contingency that plight arise. He contrasted the affair at Harper's retry with that at Liberty, showing that Mr. Trumbull'e amendment was a mere mockery. -Mr. Cueein,an, of Miebigan, desired to state that the Republioan party was born in Michigan, and they were proud of it, on July Sib, 1854, and had its origin in the outrageous and infamous repeal of the Missouri Compromise. It was christened the Republican party at its birth. Mr. Brovert, of Pennsylvania, would vote against the amendment ; being unwilling to assimilate the affair at Liberty with the recent foray of Brown. ge spoke of the feeling being more intense and pnlversal on the slavery question now than, ever be fore, and attributed tide, in part, to the course the ~,lisettesion had taken in Congress, and 'Apart to the developments of Col. Forbes and the circulation tit" Helper's book. He wee amazed that mem bers of Congress should lend their countenance to any extent to a work so dirt:illy calcula ted •to engender the worst possible feelings be tween the North and the South, nod not only between the different States, but between the peo ple of the Same States, advising? ono class to separate from the other. No circumstances could be better calculated to inflame the angry passions South than these. Then came manifestations of sympathy for Brown, not as general as some Sena tors suppose, but they , were Imposing in many of the Northern States. Meetings were held at Cleve land ated_Philadelphia, demonstrations also in the city of New York ; but worst of all, cannon were fired at Albany under the direction of an ap pointeo of the governor. These things have ne cessarily excited the South, but he would not say there had not been some fault on both sides. Sen. Resents uttered at the South have been (tabulated to preclude recrimination. lie would gladly arrest these bad feelings both North and South. He replied to Mr. 'Wade's remarks respecting Browns heroism, and read from the 1 - lorgld of Froodool, the Republican organ In Raises, to show that that paper condemned Brown's conduct while there. 'lt the Republicans do not eympa this.° with Brown's conduct, a large portion of the Abolition party do, who vote with the Republi woo- no rhea enleglifid the American Union. Pennsylvania had ever been loyal, the sympathies of her heart beatln motion with the eonstitu- Renal rights of all the States, and she will perform her duty to each and all. It will be a long time before this demon of sectionalism will have Mutoh hold in the old Keystone as to excite Not concern. He hoped the Republicans would drop this question, whiett had no practical result, $lOOO the Deed Scott decision shows that Congress possamos no power over the matter. Whet, then, Is the use of keeping up the discussion and agita tion when im prastigal end can result? Ile did not alma with all the sentiments enunciated by the denthern Senators. So far as relates to slavery in the States, each had a perfect right to admit, or exelude, at pleasure. If be went to a Territory, he would have a perfect right to resist the estab.• lishment of slavery there, but he must exercise that right in accordance with the Constitution and law. Ile thought the Northern people generally did not pronorly . appreciate the prattler situation and feelings of the South on this slavery question.

ROUSH obt IfUHRESRIPATIVES. - • Mr. Mcßae, of Mississippi, resumed his re marks, saying he came now to the question of fix ing the responsibility of the delay in organising the Houle, on the Republican party. It had been shown that their condidate' for the Speakorehip (Mr. Sherman) tutd put his signature to a paper recomitending the circulation of a hook inimical to the Interests of the Soitth. If, as the gentleman had esid, he did not know the contents of that work, he knew at least its ehartoster, which is ads verso to the institution of slavery in the South Was It strange that Sue thorn gentlemen should be sensitive on the sub trot when they considered that the sentiments In Ifelper'a book were calculated to Produce revolution and bloodshed in the South? The party which by their end-slavery onurso gave nee M the resolution of Mr. Clark, of .1111a3ouri, should be held respensible before the country for its introduction. Helper's book woe a mere inci dent to the foot of the great increase of the anti• slavery sentintente at the North, which natnrally lead to snob reeults as those at Harper's Ferry. Be held the Republicans e 1.1'1111141y responsible for agitating the public mind in the Northern States. Their conduct involves the safety of tho property of one section of the Union. The antiabsvery doctrine was the sonl and lifs of Republicanism in the States where it hue an ociatenee. lie denied. in response to a reeler): motto by Mr. Curtis, of lows, that the Domeeratto party was n preodevery party. therefore it hove no necessity for an opposing party on the other aide. The anti. slavery party was aggreative. while the Demo emu stand on the defebsive. What the Repub. Ikons mean by the protection of the rights of all the States, be understood to mean the destruction of Southern rights. It is part . of their platform that Congress is the sovereign over the question of slavery in the Territories, and if they had legisla• live control of the °over:anent, would they not, nensider it competent to exclude gallery from the Territories by not of Congress? Under that claim they would also abolish slavery in the Theriot of Columbia, the arsenal; and dock yards. The ex ercise of snob power, Georgia and Mississippi, is their resolves declare they would consider the de. etruotion of their constitutional rights, end would resist even to the dissolution of the Union. Ifs called on the Southern Opposition, in view of these fade, to so-operate with the Democracy, the only national party, and present an unbroken op noeition to the enemies of the South. Anything naleulated to Nitro one section injures the whole country. Ile would see that no sentiment goes out ealealated to mislead and deceive the public mind, at the South, with regard to the Northern Union meetings. He reviewed the prodeediegs at the meeting at Boston, which wee celled to give as manes to the South that a sound conservative sentiment existed in tho North for the protection of Southern rights; and, reading from the chairman's (Mr. Lincoln) epoch, said he had expressed no sentiment which was not suttee tined by the Repub !leant'. The resolutions ,dental were not glittering. hat a string of gloomy generalties, and not ono of them attacked the antbelavary eentitnenta The South want the agitation to cense. Edward Eve rett made a speech. Hewes a groat and good man, whenever had sound sentiments on the slavery question, and who male sign... Drat patriotic address. There was nothing In it Wbioh assailed the anti slavery movement in the right quarter. General Cushing followed. We had the right to expect something better from him. That gentleman com mimed his..epooeh by pronouncing n collage on Mr. Lincoln, when the latter had uttered entbela very sentiments. Ile (Mcßae) was in favor of the Charleston Convention giving to the Cincinnati Platform such construction and interpretation Pe would make Hsu plain that there could he no mita take aboutlt. He would hay It interpretsd so. cording to tho decision of the Supreme Court in the Dred Soott case, giving to the heath the constitu tional right to carry their sieve property into the Territoriee, and protecting it when there.

For himself, he would advise eoveroign rights out of the Unto in preference to degradation In It. This was the poeition of the Democracy of 51Iurgelppl. If the Union was not made he would not snake it. Mr. CARTER, of New York. condemned the un bridled Mose of the debate. His constituents, he Said, had elected him because he was not a seen vile partisan. Yet he bad been celled an imbecile to allow himself to he intimidated by such en at took. He did not vote for Mr. Sherman until het learned from his own' lips that ho would net, if elected as Sneaker. as a national men. Another reason why he supported Mr. Sherman wise that that gentleman was nominated and supported by the largest party in the House, and the largest number would ho necessary in order to custom him In his timetions. If at any time there worn snide for the exercise of reason among the people's Re. preeentatives that time ie now. They should show themselves loyal to the Government.

[Applause.] Mr. Jona Cocaturrs, of New York, "aid that the Republicans have preserved a studied silence, while the Democrats hoo studied speoch•making, and the oountry la to determine whieh has done its duty. The Republicans would ground their arms, and If a eumolent number of them come over to the Democrats, he guarantied that, on the next ballot, they would eloot, a Speaker.

If any mem ber had recommended such a book for wholesale , circulation, not knowing or caring to inituire into ' its character, it was for the House to say whether he Was to be trusted with the Speakership.He here voluntarily gave way for a motion to adjourn. The motion to adjourn was negatived by a vote of 184 y_ ear to 106 nays. Mr. VALLANDIOBAM resumed bin remarks, say ing he had it message to doliVer, and would hold the floor till the 4th of March next but what he would be beard. lie did not wish to proceed this evening. Another motion to adjourn was negatived by two majority. Mr VALLANDIWIAN pretended to read from the compendium of Helper's book, extrude embracing the strongest Abolition sentiments. This, be eald, was the doctrine which fifty-eight members of the last Congress had endorsed and recommended to be circulated throughout the North and West. And yet some of these very signers had recently assured this House that they are not Abolition fete. =Mr Notwithstanding that Mr. iViLLAIDIQUAIt de sired an adjournment, a majority refused to accede to his wishes.

Trig QuusriOSi 07 THE Horat.—The question of the hour appears to be " What shall we name Market street?" Now that we have consummated (theoretically, at least) the removal of the market sheds; now that we have driven the old women and butchers from their venerable haunts; new that we have cleared the great eh annel of Philadelphia. bug flees of everything but Its legitimate currents ; now that It is no longer the street of the markets, and, therefore, no longer Market etreet, what chill we name it? Verily, it la an exciting theme; a me mentoes theme; one that old Wouter Van Twirler himself would have consumed twenty-fdur pipes of tames.° in determining. Idanioipally-speaking, there should be something in a name, and there is oertsinly nothing in such a name as Market street. It Is no longer an adjective, and, therefore, it le grammatically wrong. Our good friends, the correspondents, who have such a high opinion of newspaper men. and think they were only made to be bothered, have come to the reseue. Here we have a number of communi cations, all relating to this momentous , question, " What shall we mate Market street V A me. , jority are from city correspondents, but our rural brethren claim to be Beard, and are represented in four well-written, and well-lengthy epistles. One of them from Darby suggests " Delaware ave nue," and supports the suggestion in four closely written pages of foolscap. A second, from Mount Joy, gives us a duplicate suggestion of " Lancaster avenue," or " Pennsylvania avenue," both of which are very pretty names, and should certain ly meet the oonsideretion of Couneils. The other correspondents are from Chester county, and Pug; gest " Washington street" and " Chester avenue.' We have a Washington street, and, therein*. the Pother of his country has the full measure of mu nicipal renown. "Chester Avenue" ,is a pretty enough name, and we give it for its full value. The city department 6f these communisations contains a number of excellent name' and a num ber of questionable propriety. One poetic gentle man, who quotas Romeo and Juliet" in hire gem- I municetion ' is enthusiastic in Laver of Shakspeare avenue." Another correspondent. who writes a mereantile hand, signs himself " The Union," and is evidently an inhabitant of Market street, Is ale. quent in favor of Constitution avenue," and 1 thinks "Philadelphia °mild show no better; no more , practical, no more appropriate way of re affirming her devotion to one Union and one des tiny, than by adopting a name so rich in patriotic memories."' Re-allirming her devotion." be., is very good,—lndeed, excellent. " 0, D." tells us that there is a wide-extended movement In favor of "Wideway," and grows indignant at the sugges tion. This is a very palpable Imitation of New York's "Broadway," and that alone should serve to swamp it. Wideway" would be a terrible name for cockneys and English traveller. whose predilections for the v" would readily transform Into " Videvey." "0. D." thinks that Penn's name " High street," should be retained ; or, if we must have a "way," let it be " Highway." Then comae the battalion of patriotic corres pondents, who write, forall the world, like sopho mores. "Lafayette Avenue," "Franklin Aye nue," "Jefferson Avenue," Livingston Avenue," "Webster Avenue," " Adams Avenue," " Wash ington Avenue," " Henry Avenue" " Otis AIM DIM" OathYllietier Avenue," " Mifflin Avenue," et id omne genus all find hosts of defenders. " Harrison Avenue" ill sucted by " X. Y. Z." and " Philadelphia." " n Avenue" Isis its friends, end •• Continental venue" is pet want ing in Admirers. One otevir correspondents re garde " Philadelphia Avenue" as-the only name worth thinking about, 'while. another, with an originality quite commendable, gives us fourteen reasons for aalling‘it "The Avenue.", Tbe ba lance of these communisations al's divided be tween a number of names so excellent, but yet so familiar, that their publication is unnecessary. PeoungLeßts IN THE OLDIN Tnew.—We take from the Germantown TelegrapA the follow ing interesting article on the antkinities garrotted ing the beautiful borough of Germantown. A num ber of hots we presented for the first time, which will be fotindvery interesting: " Among the celebrated characters of former times that honored Germantown with their pre sence, was Benjamin 'Lay, who was known also by the assuming title of the ' Pythagorean Cynical Christian Philosopher,' and who dwelt in a cave, in the vicinity of Germantown, about the year 1135. "Rittenhouse ; the celebrated _pbilosenher, as well as Godfrey , the inventor of Hadley's quad rant, were natives of Germantown. "One of the oldest grist wills in the country is now standing in Mill street, and le still need for the sumo purposes that it was originally built for. " The first paper mill in Pennsylvania was erect ed. by. Garret Rittenhonso, on the banks of theWis &thicken, near Germantown. It was carried off by a freshet, however, a few years after its erection; whereupon William Penn wrote a letter to the good people of Germantown, to aid in rebuilding it, but the enterprise failed on account of an inatdoiency of funds. "The lint 'jamb stoves' seen in the United States were cast In Germantown, by Christopher Sower. About fifty years ago, these stoves were very extensively used. t. Linens, of an excellent quality, were manufac tured by the. eaxly,sattlena. Weaving was also carried on to a great extent, until some forty years ago, and Germantown hosiery was in constant de mand, being considered of much better quality than manufactured elsewhere. The name may be said of the woollen goods now manufactured there "As is well known, on the morning of the fourth day of Oatober, 1777, one of the hardest contoated battles of ihe'Revolutton was fought:at Garmen t Iwn. The building, familiarly known aa the Chew Mansion,' which was occupied by the British during the struggle, is still standing. and hat not been materially altered since that memo rable occasion. General Washington also resided there for severed months. while President of the United States, and during the prevalence of the yellow fever in Philadelphia. People were Piing only a few years ago who slistinotly remembered him. lie resided in the house directly facing Milt street, awl opposite Market Square, which hos in no mit• MOM respect been altered in appearance from what it was at thst time. "William Penn /pent much of his time hi Ger mentomn while in the colonies. 114 preached to the miembled people in Market Square Crum a bal. onny in front of the large house standing on the northwest corner or the square. The balcony was remove! only same twelve years ago." TROUBLE IN TUB WIGWAM—The Keystone in Danger—An adjourned stated meeting or the Keystone Democratic Club was held on Monday evening, at the Wetherill goose. The puhliihed object of the meeting was the election of officers for the ensuing term. An adjourned meeting of the Club had been held a week previons, at which a committee was appointed for the purpose of re porting to the meeting the names of the officers for election. The committee made a report recom mending a list of ofticers beaded by the math of Win B. Ranken, now register of land in Washing. ton Territory, as president. Mr. Raritan has eerved the party in the capacity of president of the Club for several years, and, though officially suppoeed to be in Washington Territory, was pre sent at the meeting on Monday evening. The report of the committee came up far action, and as It was supposed that the adoption of its re commendations was a mere matter of form, the president proceeded to put the question. Mr. E. R. Ilelmbold moved nu amendment, substituting the name of William McCandless as president, in place of that of Mr. Ranker,. A farther amend ment was made that the Club proceed to the else tion of ollieura. regardless of the report of the committee. The second motion was pat, and though the voice of the meeting was decidedly in favor of it, the president declared it lost. This decision led to come confusion, amid which, after a variety of motions, Mr. ifelmbold was called to the chair in the place of Mr. Henten. 'The Club then went into an election fur officere with the following result. In order to give the public an Weser how completely the Club bee been revolutionized, we may etato that on the ballot for president, Mr. Reuben received but twenty-one votes out of a hundred end twenty-three Pre•idext—lif 'Hum McCanoles.

Continuing their flight down Maiden street, the teem rushed into the river and were drowned, The hones were a remarkably fine pair, and cost the company quite a large sum. INCOItStr.O'L STATSAID.ti'L.—Scoon of the daily papers yesterday, in noticing the fin on Second street, stated that the steamer of the Washington Engine Company had been injured on her way to the fire. In order to dispel any exag gerated ideas thin statement bed produced, we may say that the irjury was of a very trifling charac ter—hardly worth mentioning. The engine was in merle° the day reereedieg the fire, and is now in the most excellent o.uer.
