The telegraph brings the dreadful tidings of tho

and seven hundred persona were at work, nearly
all of whom were buried in the ruins! As yet,but
little of the particulars are known, but it is certain
that a great number wore killed—the despatch says
ten hundred, and we fear thattho number, cannot
be much lees , where so many were buried beneath
the ruing.

The New York Express, of last evening,• gives
the following account of en elopement of a lady,
the wife of a gentleman of that city, with a young
man not yet of age. It is supposed that the guilty
- parties are in this city at present :
Some few weeks ago, the elopement of the
wife of a prominent Drooklyn physician caused
considerable stir in the fashionable circles of the
City of Churches.' ,The wife of a well-known
gentleman In this pity, who was formerly a mewl
bar of the Legislature, has now run away, (tome
may with a boy of eighteen,) and 19 now enjoying
the new honeymoon in the neighborhood of Phila.
delphia.
"The bright young gentleman, who has thus dis
played his precocious propensities, Is, or was a
drug chat in a store on Hudson street. He has
long been on intimate terms with the faiihlese wife,
who was never suspected of any wrong, although
her manners in the etude where She moved some-
times subjected her to remark: She Is a woman
of considerable wealth in her own right, owning
couple of large buildings on Broadway, besides
having a good sum of money Invested in stooks,
bonds, de., and was one of the leaders of fashion
in her set.
"On abandoning the kind and loving partner,
who has shared her joys and sorrows for the last
eighteen years, sho gonerously left everything in
the wsy of property behind, bat about $2,000 in
ready cash, whiob will be amply sufficient for a
fashionable tour. •
"The runaway lady is possessed of .grortt. per
59nal attractions, and is about tbirty-six years ON
age. She is the mother of five intorestingehildren,
one of Whom, a girl sixteen years of age, feels the
blow severely, occupying; as she does, a good posi
tion in society.' The father of the runaway, an
aged man, in wealthy circumstances, is else greatly
distressed. The husband, naturally, shares the
same feelings, but has determined not to pursue
his faithless spouse, who; it is believed, will repent
of her folly and again, return to her home."
The New Jersey Court of Pardons met on Satur

up a diffieulty, which ended their connection. WIG

WILLIAM B. REED, the late American min
ister to China, is resolved to make the most of
the Administration of JAMES BUCHANAN. lie
has not been three years a member of the De-
Imkratie party, and yet dating that time he
has been a volunteer candidate for the Cabinet,
and a successful applicant for a foreign , rids,
tion. • Contemplating the rapid lapse of the
present Feder4 dynasty, and looking with hun
gry-eyes upon the French and English mis
'sions, he now devotes himself,, with assiduity
and ability, to such a discussion of the Issues
of the day as will commend him at once to the
renewed regard of the President, and to the
eager endorsement of the Senate. His mind
is evidently made up that trim has any chance
in the future, in politics, it must be within the
very narrow selvedge of Mr. Btrettaxan'a Ad
ministration; and as he is not a modest, al
though a very graceful and courteous canvasser
of his own merits;le gravely gives notice to
the Executive that he is once more in the mar
ket, and that be is again bidding industriously
and high.
Jens Deem: and his seventeen men, with
pikes in hand, Were a signal providence to
WILLIAM B. REED. It requires a good deal to
disturb' the equanimity of ex-Minister, ex-
Attorney General under JOSEPH RIME, ex-
District Attorney, ox-anti-Mason, and ex-Re
publican WILLIAM B. REED. He is complacent
under excitements generally. The man who,
in the midst of the fiowns of the court, the
1 jeers of the lawyers, and the indignation of the
auditors, can impale a helpless witness with as
much 'coolness as the stolid agent of the In
quisition watches the agonies of his victim, is
net ; easily disturbed by any sensation. But
JOHN Baowx has disturbed WILLIAM B. REED;
and when the natural sentiment of the South
has been justly and properly excited against
the attack of a few deperadoes upon the sove
reignty of Virginia, and expresses itself In
strong and significant terms, the ex-Minister
steps forward and displays himself not alone
'as an active sympathiser with these demonstra
tions, but as the eager solicitor for prompt and
I practical measures in the free States against
•
these enemies of the Union.
Inn late letter published in the Washington
Constitution of Thursday, signed by WILLIAM
18. REED, and addressed to a committee of a
meeting at Newark, New Jersey, called " for
the suppression of sectionalism and fanati
cism of every kind, and the maintenance in
tact of our glorious Union," the ex-Minister
gives us his views upon Jens Bacwx, Abell
, tionism, disunion, and other subjects of pa
tent discussion. It is a graceful, cool, and
complacent letter, and altogether a highly
creditable literary production. It begins with a
compliment to the President—which Is another
public recognition of favors received—and it
cads with a most penitential apology for the
writer's eleventh-hour application for admis
sion into the Democratic party. Gratitude for
favors received is scarcely one of Mr. REED'S
characteristics ; but we are quite willing, in
the present case, to charge it to the fact that
he is not Insensible to the expectation of favors
to come. It is somewhat' different with his
recantation of his past politics, because he Is
too old a sinner to be sincere, and wo can only
account for the fervor with which he proposes
to expiate his crimes against the Democratic
party in the disposition of his new patron and
late foe, Mr. BuctrANAN, to surrender Demo
cratic principles In acknowledgment of the
support of those who have always assailed
them. A single sentence of the letter of
WILLIAM B. REED to the Newark meeting eg.
hibits the temper of the whole. It is this :
" The South often talks against the Union ;
the North, I am sorry to say, in the matter of
rendition of thgitives front labor, arts, and it
was the Consciousness of this that compelled
us in Philadelphia, who in obedience love the
Constitution, to speak out clearly on the sub
ject."
When Mr. Ron came over to Mr. BUCHAN
AN in 1856, he did not come because he ex
pected Mr. BUCHANAN to surrender, and debase
'himself on the slavery question. lie came be
cause he had to leave another organization, in
which he had been overslaughed. He came, not
so much because he preferred the Democratic
party as because the American organization

not use the so-called Know-Nothings for his
:casniirposes, ho also found that he might

CREAM'S moderation and conservatism on ft°
shivery___question --.--
..necessary to obtain
- Diath - ern support, the people -of the - slave'
States had no other choice, and must take him
in preference to FREXONT. The ex-Minister
made up his record against the South in the
respective organizations of which, during his
life,' he was either a partisan or a leader. He
had been for years the beau ideal of the an
ti-Southern feeling in Philadelphia—the carp
ing, sneering, bitter enemy of Ike slave States—
never trusted by the friends of CLAY or WEB
STER, the champions of the compromise acts of
1850 ; never called upon by thole who looked
forward to the execution of the fugitive-slave
law in our midst ; and, of course, the venom
ous and vindictive assailant of every na
tional Democrat, Troia ANDREW Aims° N
down to JAMES BUCHANAN.
We think it may be shown, if there has been
any obstructive legislation in this State in re
gard to the enforcement of the fligitive-slave
law, and particularly in reference to the 'part
of the Hon. WILLIAM F. JOHNSON, a former
Governor of Pennsylvania, on that question,
that WILLIAM B. REED, who now insists upon
the enforcement of that law, approved, if he
did not originate, the legislation referred to.
It is historically certain that he stood by Jo-
SEMI Hiram when, in 1838, and prior to that
period, he declared against the Southern
States. It is notorious that lionrgued in fa
vor of the Wilmot proviso, and It hi doubtless
in proof that, when the great doctrine of popu
lar sovereignty was repeated and laid down in
1854, the ex-ministir to China was among its
most fbrvent opponents, because he believed
it to bo another concession to the South.
The tact is, this gentleman came over
to' the Democracy, in 1856, as ono who
expected to appeal to the anti-slavery
sentiment of the North. Now we have him ,
on the other tack. Now he tells us that It la
the North that has " acted" disunion, while
the South has only es talked " it ; and, like his
class, he attempts to excite and arouse the busi
ness interests of Philadelphia by such an in
sult, and invites these interests to unite with
an Administration which may be called the
chief author of all our existing troubles. .Mr.
REED is in the habit of making these appeals
to the commercial and industrial interests of
Philadelphia. He inndo such appeals to these
interests, against the Democratic party, during
his savage 'warfare upon the 41elmi
nistration of Arepai.w JACKSON, ind,bo thanks
the same men will listen toliim now.
Hnliappily.for him, ho is an old actor, be
fore an old audience. He has played loading
parts in nearly every political drama, He
may clothe himself In spangles or hi' sables;
he may appear as logo on one night, and as
Othello on the other; In high comedy or in
low comedy; but the face and the heart are
too familiar to deceive anybody; and the hot
ness interests of Philadelphia are no more to
be terrified by WILLIAM B. REED than by his
new master, whom, after having abused, all
the 'test years of his life, he now io obse
quiously serves.
But, says WILLIAM B. R arm Ic the North his
acted against the Union." if tt has acted
against the Union on the fugititse•stave lain,
then this calumniator has himself led in the al
smith upon that law. He says "the South
has only talked against the Union." Has he
forgotten the resolve of tho South to apeede
from the Union under Jolla C. OALIIOcw, when
General Tamen threatened to hang him and
his confederates as high as Haman? Has he
forgotten the perilous scenes of 1850, when
certain Southern Senators attempted to resist
the admission of California into the Union ?
Hobe forgotten, he Nashville Convention, in
which secession was deliberately plotted"?
And could he have forgotten the fact that at
tife,:*ery moment he was writing the calumny
we have, ,' quoted, Inoffensive Northern men
were being expelled from the South, whole
communities driven out of Kentucky for enter
taining peaceful anti-slavery sentiments, iniii
tary preparations going on in every slave State,
, acid a general system of non:intercourse advo
eatedtigainst the business, the enterprbie, and
'the dearest interest's' of tbe free States? WAr
did he not tell us that the Senate of the United
States is, to-day, organized against the North;
not by words, but by deeds ; and that every
loading Northern Democrat is refused a chair
manship upon any important committee? Why
did lie not tell us that tho whole Administration
of Mr. BUCHANAN is organized and practically
conducted against the free States If this is
the way the South " talks," what shall we ex
pect when the South "acts," and wherein has
the North offended Have the people of
Philadelphia, or of Pennsylvania, approved of
Toum BROWN'S raid upon Virginia? On the I
contrary, does not Mr. REED know the reverse ?
Does he not know that they have not only
,er talked," but er acted" against that unparal
leled outrage upon the interests and the sove
reignty of the Old Dominion and that all par.
ties, with a few contemptible exceptions, united
in execration of it? And yet, with these facts
before him the ex-Minister tells us that the
South w talks" and that the North ce acts"
Against the Union. If WILLIAM B. REED has
not by this last demonstration earned another
appointment at the hands of President Be.
CHANAN, then. e have entirely underrated the
ingenuity of the one, and the gratitude of the
other.
The Elements of Fertility-• Drainage
of Ude&
A discussion having recently arisen in Lon
don in regard to the system of draining Cities,
and the importance of an attempt to rescue, for
agricultural purposes, the fertilizing matter now
swept into rivers, and thence into the sea, by
the sewers, a letter in reference to this ho
portant subject has been written by Baron
Lrenta, to J. J. Mum, of London, and a
translation of it has recently appeared in the
New York Times.
The chief object of the letter is, to impress
the public mind with the importance of resto
ring to the soil all the elements of fertility re
moved by successive crops. Baron LIMO
laments that his repeated efforts to awaken the
attention of the farmers of the world to this
great subject have met with but small success.
He compares the short- sighted policy which is
the cause of this neglect to FOURIER'B scheme
for supplying his phalanstery with food, which
was based upon a calculation that a couple of
hundred thousand hens should be purchased,
And that they would lay eggs enough to yield
an immense income—no allowance or estimate
being made by FOURIER for the cost of the food
tho hens would necessarily consume. LIEBIO
thinks that many farmers still ignore the fact
that land, to retain its fertility, must receive
"certain conditions which stand in the seine
relation to thin products of the field as tho
bon's food does to the egg she lays." Ho also
compares land to a well, which, however deep
it may he, will eventually be exhausted, if the
water it contains is being constantly pumped
out, and no adequate new supply furnished.
He commends the wisdom of those nations and
farmers, who, by purchasing bones and guano,
have done much to restore the fertility of their
soil, but he expresses the fear that the sup
ply of these articles will be eventually ex
hausted, and that, through the decay of the
productive powers of the soil, the difficulties
of supplying the population of the world with
food will greatly increase.
Ono of the chief causes of flip logs of the
elements of the fertility lie pronounces to be
the sewerage system of cities, by which they
are swept away. Ile considers it a matter of
Natal importance that this loss should bo ar
rested. In regard to the practicability of do
tug this, ho says :
It hat boon maintained that the recovering of
the manure.elotnents out of the sewere in the large
cities is Impracticable. I am.not ignorant of the
difficulties Witlch stand in its way—they are indeed
very great; but if Goa engineers would come to an
understanding with the moo A r science in relation
to the two purposes—the removal of thpeontents of
the sewers, and the recovery of their valuable ele•
moats for agrioniture—l do not doubt that a goOd
result would follow. Intelligence, in union with
eapital, represents a power in England which has
rendered possible and practhutblo things of much
greater apparent difiloulty. I look foiward with
deep concern to the Solution of the rewerage
question. For if this queetion I, decided in groat
Britain without regard to the wants of sgriettlture,
we can scarcely hope for anything batter Roma the

TUN ADMINISTRATION AND TIIE Drotoemscr OF
Onto.—Tho Columbus (Ohio) oorrespondont of tho
New York Ts MSS says :
" The Demooratle Convention has just adjourned.
To fully understand the strength of Douglas in
this State, it was only necessary to hear the dele
gates define their position before the balloting
commenoed. They seemed to ransack their brains
to find words suitable to express their devotion-to
Douglas. The balloting resulted - in electing them,
mon, and no other received a vote. !
- After this balloting was finished, a motion was
immediatelymado toadjonrn. This was done for
the purpose of preventing the calling up of the
resolution endorsing the Administration, which
had been referred to the committee on resoldtions.
The motion to adjourn was lost, and the oommittee
called on to report. The resolution, as reported,
endorsed and approved the notion of the President
in adjusting:with England thequestion of the right
of search, the Paraguay difficulty, the enforce
ment of the fugitive-slave law, and the laws
against the slave trade, This was the 4 damna
tion of faint praise,' and wag received with shouts
of laughter. A second meeting was called for,
merely for the cake of laughing at it a second
t i me. The yeas and nays were called, and nearly
all the delegates screamed in their turn In favor
of thus sustaining the President. Only fifteen, and
they Administration men, voted against it.
mediately on the passage of this resolution the
Convention adjourned, so as to prevent ardent offi

of the secession of the medical studente, says :
"Sensible of the many indignities which have
been heaped on the. South by our Northern bre
thren; as much devoted to our Southern institu
tions at any man can be; and regarding the Abo
lition spirit and the fanaticism of the North as
odious, sinful, devilish, and wicked, anti deserving
of the moat condign punishment whenever it can
be mated out to them, yet we regret this notion of
the students. That they are all patriotic and sin
cerely attached to the South, and were moved and
actuated by the beat of motives, we do not doubt;
but in times like these when our Government
n
seems tottering to its fall, it must be enved—if saved
at all—by the well-oonsldered numementa of our
eldest and beet citizens—and these hasty efforts of
the young men of the country, however well meant,
can only result in Injury."

Letter from Washington.
[Correspondence of The Prome.l
Wesutoo'too, January 10,1800
Georgia is, as the phrase goes, setting itself right
before the people. Ron. Alfred Iverson illuminated
the Senate yesterday evening, and lion. Luolus
J. Gartrell followed to-day in the House of Repre
sentatives. Tho efforts of both these gentlemen
wore, as might have been expected, ultra in their
character. Tho distinguished Senator la a very
excitable gentleman in political matters, though I
am informed that he is remarkable for his affa
bility in private life. Ile is of the medium height,
with an open countenance, which, at the slightest
notice, la capable of a rather fierce expression. lilt
complexion is florid, which deepens with the inten
sity of his feelings, or when giving forcible expres.
aim to them. A very slight garniture of
light auburn hair, mixed with gray, has
eomewhat the same relation .to hie era
mum as Ooloridge's "thin gray aloud" had
to the sky—in covering, but not biding its
round and shining surface. lie drosses usually in
a blue body coat with brass bottons, but le not
over careful as to the decking of the outer man.
The distinguished Senator from Georgia has very
positive ideas, and does not lack characteriatic
phraseology to give them fordo. His speech was a
deliberate and moldered effort. It was written, eo
that the Georgian could not be mistaken. It was
largely devoted to a review of the slave question
in the Territories, and of Judge Douglas' artiole
in harper. Ile reviled the whole Northern Demo.
°racy. Ile had been made the subject of criticism
for his views on that subject, but the whole North
denounced slavery as a moral and social wrong.
If it was so, then it should be aboliitied.
Thus the Northern Democracy were actually
equally ruinous to the South as the Republicans.
As the Northern Whig party was swamped in the
anti-slavery tide, so also would thallorthern Demo
crats be oarriod away In the vortex of Republi
canism. This was his opinion, and he had no host-
tation in Mating it.
Tho Senator branded off into the usual secession
declarations, and alluding to Millman's " eighteen
millions," cried in the words of Spartacue; "Lot
'em come in—we're armed ;" and concluded in the
famous words of Roderick Dbu—that romantic,
but baro•leggod hero of the Clan Alpine—
" Come one, come alt! this rook shall fly
From its fern base as soon as I."
During the delivery of the speech there were not
at any time a dozen Senators in their seats, and
those who remained did not seem to be strikingly
attentive. They might have listened with benefit,
especially when the honorable Senator, prospeob
ing about Charleston, condemned the ambiguitres
of the Cincinnati platform, and declared that they
should be discarded. Of course, Senator Iverson
was not In favor of Douglas for the Presidency, and
took occasion to avow his preference for Hunter—
to whose talents ankposition, public and private,
he paid a high compliment; for Brecklorldge, in
whom hands ho was sure the Government would
be honorably administered; or for the Georgia
statesman, Alexander H. Stephens, between whom
and himself thorn bad been points of ditiorenoe,igt
whose oonfidence be now shared.
Mr artroll's speech, in the House, to•dey, was
of the same hue and character. Ile did not dis
cus the question with the same calm tenacity to
logical deduotions from the Georgia premises as
the Senator; but he was equally enthusiastic, if
not equally dignified. In parts he wee forotbie,
but Ma aotion is not graceful, and his voico so
powerful that before the echo of one phrase he/
reached the gallery another overtakes it, and
oroates a clash, during which the I,OIISO 1 , 01114ii111011

At about five o'clock this afternoon, the citizens
of Lawrence were alarmed by a cry of fire which
proceeded from the Pemberton Mille, about four
fifths of which had fallen into a shapeless mass,
without the slighted warning to nearly eight hun
dred beings who were there at work.
The building has never been considered as
staunch. It was built seven years slue, and 4
was then considered a chain. Indeed, before the
PlachinnrY Was put in, the walls spread to such a
degree that twenty-two tone of stays bad to be put
in to save it from falling.
The building appeared to crumble and fall first
from the eastern corner. It fell inwards, as if
powerfully drawn that way. The firemen of the
oily at once repaired to the spot and set at work to
remove the rubbish. They soon reached some of
the rooms, so that the dead and wounded were

XXXVITII CONGRESS.--FIRST SESSION.
U. 8. CAPITOL, WIIIIIINGTON, Jan 10.
SENATE.
The attendance was full to-day.
Several memorials and petitions were presented.
Mr. Jounson presented a petition In favor of the
homoetead bill.
. . ,
Mr. Pvait's (of Ohio) resolutions coming up,
Mr. Mow, of Missouri, spoke on thepreposi
tion to give (ho election of Territorial officers to
the people. declaring it revolutionary in its charac
ter. The doctrine of popular sovereignty is fraught
with danger from beginning to end. When the
advocates of popular eosereignty were pressed
they said they did not mean popular sovereignty,
but Territorial sovereignty. lie regretted the sub
ject was ever Introduced to estrange those who
ought to be united against a common foe who wu
striking et the institutions of the South and endan
gering the existence of the Government. We
should have first put the ship of state on a smooth
sea, and then we could have settled minor points of
difference amongst ourselves. But the subject had
boon thrhst forward by the Senator from Illinois in
essay after essay, and by the Senator from Ohio, in
a labored speech, and the question had to bo mot.
Up to the close of the last session, Mr. Douglas did
not contend for the sovereignty of the Territorial
Legislature, nor did he do so in his Freeport speech
when hard pressed by an able adversary; but in
the Harper's Magazgyre article he had claimed
the same power for a Territory as is possessed by a
sovereign State. Mr. Green then proceeded to
show that the lets of a Territory are subject to the
supervision of Congress and consequently it pos
sessed no sovereignty, but derived all its powers
from Congress. He went Into a history of the legis
lation on the subje c t, reviewed the Fred Soott de
cision, and .quoted from the former speeches of
Douglas to show the inconsistency of his present
position.
In Mad, it was eandidly admitted by the Demo
crats that there was a difference of opinion be
tween the sections, but all agreed to abide by the
decision of the Supreme Court. He wished, there
fore, these issues about squatter sovereignty to
be hushed up, and the Dred Scott decision ars
°opted as the final settlement, so thatihe agitating
question could be removed from Congress. lie
continued in an argument to show that a Territory
had no sovereignty, and that Congress had the
power to Institute Territorial Governments and
revise their ants. lie read ettraets to show that
the Senators from Ohio and Illinois (Messrs. Pugh
and Douglas) bed admitted the power of Congress
over Territories. Ills speech was a close legal ar•
gument to sustain his positions. In the course of
his remarks, ho said that ho believed that the
Senator from Ohio bad said that the first applies.
lion of the principle of popular sovereignty was in
he case of Calliornia.
Mr. Puoo. The Senator is mistaken. The
action of the thirteen colonies wu the Gnat appli
cation of the principle.
Mr. OnEEN. That's a revolution to which I am
opposed under this Government. It is the intro•
duotion of the same kind of revolution au upon
Bunker's Bill, which, glorious as it was, was a
revolution in the eyes of the world. Ile then took
the ground that the right to hold slaves as property
Wlll national, and the prohibition of slavery as lo
cal. Slavery was general when this llovernment
was rounded, and 1143 been prohibited since by
acts of the local legislatures. The right to hold
slaves as property on board of United States ships
was aoknowledged as perfect and complete, on the
principle a vessel was a part of the public do
main, and on the same pr i nciple slavery was enti•
tied io protection in the Territories. which are a
part of the actual domain. kin would ask no more
protection for slavery in the Territories than for
any other property. If the Territories could not
be trusted, he was in favor of revoking all their
powers. The subject was then postponed, without
concluding, till to-morrow.
The Senate went into executive session, and
subsequently adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. OABTRZI,L, of Georgia, said no blame could
attach to the Democrats for the non organization
of the lionse The scones enacted here are but
the begintildksot the irrepressible conflict of which
we have heard se much—a conflict between oppos
ing forces—a conflict between the North and
South. If war is to be waged on fifteen States of
the Union; If they are to be denied the solemn
guarantees of the Constitution ; if the property of
the South is to be taken and its surrender denied ;
if the principles of the Republican party aro still
to be maintained, and their purposes accomplished;
if the South, by Congressional or other con
trivance, are, by unfriendly legislation, to
be deprived a full participation in the common
Territories belonging to the people of the United
States—then, for one, he was free to confess it
would be better that the House should never organ
ize. If you Republicans, he said, are determined
to continue your aggressions. as you propose to do
on our rights ; if you wilt not stay your hand of
aggression ; if you are determined that this con
flict shall como—then I warn on, and those whom
you represent, to beware of the dangerous ground
on which you tread ! The South must have their
full measure of constitutional rights. Nothing else
will do. They will enforce them, and demand to
be treated as Political equals. Otherwise, the
Union will be divided into as many parts as the
stars on the national banner.
Ile proceeded to show, first, what rights the Sonth•
ern people enjoy as to slavery. Second, that those
rights, so clear, snored, and high, are not only
' threatened, but boldly, daringly, and wilfully as
sailed by the Republican party. Third, he would
announce the solemn truth, disagreeable as it
might be to his conatttuonts, as well as those of
others, that, If this aggression continue, the
. people
of the Smith will bo compelled, by every principle
61 jostle°, honor s and self-preservation, to disrupt
every tie of union, peaoeably if they can, forcibly
if they must!
?4r. Iltostum, of New York, during the speech,
asked Mr. Qartrell whether, if the doctrine of
Senator Douglas, as to slavery, be acted on in the
Territories, he would therefore claim that the
South bap a right to secede Irene the Velee ?
Mr. GARTllatri. wished to know whether Mr. Bar.

Mr. EDWARDS, of Now Hampshire, alluded to
the fact, that they had been wore than live weeks

to-day bad boonoccupted by Mr. tiortroll. no was
satisfied that, if they would proceed to a vote to
day, it would not result in an plaation. Therefore,
ho thought it more important they shoqld establish
a rule to govern the House in the future. Thero
would be nothing but evil from the spirit of this
debate, the effect boing to alienate members on
this floor, and sow seeds of bitterness and un
friendly feeling. And more than this, it reaches
the whole length and breadth of the land,
and inflames the sectional agitation, both In
the South and North As to Mr. Clark's resolu
tion declaring that no man who commended the
circulation of the compendium of the Helper book
fit to be Spanker. ho thought its Introduction un
necessary and offensive—for no member has a right
to ask questions on a resolution of this oharaoter.
Mr. LEAKS, of Virginia, wanted to know whether
any man who endorsed a book counselling violerose
and murder, was fit Lobe Speaker f Southern gen
tlemen thought this the first stop towards a diem.
lotion of the Union.
Mr. EnwAin.s . eondemned teat resolution.
was an abstraction, and therefore the debate was
predicated on an abstraction. Mr Sherman bad
exonerated himself from the charge of having en
dorsed each mentimente.
Mr. Hombres, of Alabama, adverted to the fact
that at the commencement of the XXXIWth Con
geese, a resolation was introduced preliminary to
the election of Speaker, condemning the repeal of :
the Missouri restriction; and asserting that it ought
to be established. This resolution was forced on
the House by the Republican friends of the °Lodi- t
date for Speaker.
Mr. CLARK, of New York, asked Mr Edwards
whether he would, under any circumstances, vote
torn candidate for :speaker who entertained, in.
his heart, the sentiments of intolerance and pro
ecription which were indicated in the extracts read
from the Helper book.
Mr. F.DwAiins replied, that in private conversa
tion with the gentleman, he might say what be
would or would not do, but, as a member here, he
would not respond to the interrogatory.
Mr. CLARK thought the act of endorsement was
nothing more than an act of reckless partisanship,
but he wanted to know from Mr. Edwards whether
a man, who, in his heart, entertains sentiments of
Intolerance and proscription, ought to be Speaker?
Mr. EDWARDS resumed by saying his constitu
ents knew his views. In reply to Mr. Houston,
.he remarked that if any resolutions were intro
dared in the XXXIYth Congress for coven:deg the
votes of members, be did not subscribe to Bach a
proceeding.
Mr. Mueslis, of Pennsylvania, said that if he be
lieved Mr. Sherman entertained such sentiments as
are expressed in the Helper book, he never would
have voted for him. It was because he knew Mr.
Sherman regarded with the utmost horror any en
couragement to a servile insurrection, and depre
cated the diethrbanee of the present state of
society, that he voted for him,
Mr. LEAKS . ' asked whether Mr. Sherman, wkeri
he signed the recommendation, did not think he
was doing that which was In the nature of inter
fering with slavery ' Did or does the gentleman
not know that the book was designed to operate on
slavery where slavery exists !
Mr. Monate would simply Bay that he did not
know what were the sins or intentions of Mr.
Sherman in giving assent to the preparation and
circulation of a compendious of the Helper book.
Mr. Sherman had confided in the discretion of the
committee, and the committee relied more on Mr
Helper than on their own discretion. When Mr.
Clark's resolution shall be withdrawn, Mr. Sher
man will be ready to answer frankly and express
his opinion of the book.
Mr EDWARDS resumed. lie would not give his
support to any man unless he stands clear of
crime, and has an unblemished reputation. Hs
offered a resolution that triter to-day, until a
Speaker shall ho chosen, the House will proceed to
vote at one o'clock,and vote three times in rue
cession, and if any member have possession of the
floor ho shall surrender It for that purpose

"Ble4sings on his head," es
claimed the philosophical Sancho, "who first
invented sleep." Glorious invention. Eter
nal, universal patent-right! How do thy com
forts descend upon the weary and toil-worn—
the poor and the rich—the sick and the health
ful : flow, upon the eye-lids of each and all,
fail thy in4unuces like the dews of evening
upon tho closing Homers! Ch, there is - th,zo
is a richness in the gift of sleep—a wealth
which be alone can prize, who. from son o
affliction of mind or body, has lost its pos,,es
sion! Sec the conscience-stricken wretch
tossing on his pallet of straw, and clanking the
Maims nhjch hind hint to his dungeon' A
heavier chain is fastened on his soul--a chant
which keeps hint from the world of sleep, or,
If its links do but lengthen, and he enters that
world, Imagination peoples it with a gorgons,
hidraa, and chimeras dire." Ike sees nothing
of those pure beings that hover round the sleep
of the innocent—those I;spiritg which come lj
biro, in that hour, as from tho threshold of hea
ven, beckoning him on to its golden gate , . He
heirs not the well-remembered voice, ut
friends, of parents and. kindred, who now slum
ber peacefully in the grave. Their voices, it
heard, are heard only to upbraq
forms rise before him to shrink immediately
front his presence! What a contrast to this
scene is the sleep of the innocent' The sleep
of that picture of innocence, an infant, bar
ing, as it always appears to, the fresh touches
of the Creator's hand, and being all over redo
lent of Ideavep, View it a: it slumbers peace
fully in its cradle—its bosom scarce moving it:
covering—its breath gentle and noiseless as
the falling of the dew—its eyes closed calmly
and serenely—its countenance touched with
a pleasantness of expression, as if the first
glimmerings of reason were dawning on its
mind. You may almost fancy it an angel, se
pure, so beautiful, and heavenly!
