Her people are anniousto be admitted into the Union. 7 4 hey have Veen nearlfexhausted by repeated elec tions. They are overrun by the mercenaries of the Federal' Administration. All the ma. chineri for a State organization has been Per fected. They 'have elected , their Governor, their State officers, 'their :Legislature, and their Representative.- Oregon was -.eager ly admitted, althoinglf if is in proof that her population was not morn `than forty thousand. The reason for the continued , exclusion of Kansasis to be found only in fact that, she would throW three electoral 'votes against the Administration candidate 'for .President. Those who are Constantly - telling us that the Kansas question is settled are thus supplying another contradiction', Of their -professions. . It is .In vain to tell these-men that by taking this course they make - , an' irritating issue 'in the corning struggle ' for the, - Presidency, because ;that; is their purpose. They hope by this land yother_ measures to ' combine the Southern ' States against the North, and so to precipitate the catastrophe of disunion. There are 25 - Republican Senators, who will, of course, vote, for the admission of Kansas. Messrs. Comas and Puon would make 27 ; but ,`the Administration will attempt to control Mr. MOs, of Minnesota; Mr. Blobsa, of ' Pennsylvania; Mr. Tnousom,,of New JeMoy ; Mr. Lan, of Oregon; Messrs. Gwit , and RAPT, of California, and Messrs. Benno, and Frron, of Indiana. If these votes are given for the admission ;of Kansas, thd ,difficulty will be settled ; but we entertain faint hopes of any such 'result,' and, ,even if they were ready to represent the wishes ,of their cOn stituents, and to yield to the appeals or the people of Kansas, the minority of the idre eaters in the Hous e. would resist the adttle- Pent of the question for their own purpOses. We perceive that General PONNON; of Kan sas, who, it is stated, will be ono of the new Senators, is now in Washingtoia, Mid we; sin cerely trust that the Hen. PanDanlOK P. STAN.

He was ten years a member of the popular branch of Commis, and during all this long service distingaihed, himself by his unrivalled po'Wers as a 'debater, his ;great businesi qualities, and his patriotic: and conservative action.

The Pennsylvania Slate' Sentinel contains seventeen veto messages of•hills passed at the close of the last session of the Legislature. The first of tires° vetoes referred to the Packer Iron Company, and was published by us yesterday upon our fourth page, with some appropriate and just remarks, from the Lan caster Eapress. The other vetoes are of imMewhat sikrilat clutriteter. : Veto number two applies to an as act to ia corporate-the New York and Carbondale Coal Company," to, which it - is objected that the okject of the association being to purchase coal and.convey real and personal estate to an amount riot exceeding one million of dollars, or not less than one • hundred thousand, the purpose contemplated by this company fails Within the'scope of ordinary business trrinik . Lions, and no goo'd result can accrue frons"! .; incorporation py.the State. 7SZ, Number three vetoes an act of-the same kind, to incorporate the East Scranton Im provement Company. Number font , ' vetoes an act relating to the claim of Tnouss Homo; which provided special legislation in regard to a claim for damages, payable by the North Branch Banal Ooinpany. Number five vetoes au act to appoint com missioners to sell the Northwest Railroad.' It was vetoed on the ground that proceedings for the appointment of such commissioners, had already been Instituted in a competent court ofjurisdiction. Number Aix Totoes an act authorizing the laying out of what was termed a , c State road" lit Berke county, which was in reality a local road within the jurisdiction of the Berks Coanty Court of Quarter Sessions. . Number seven is a veto of seven acts of in corporation and oil, and iron companies. The objections against them are of the same character as those stated at length' in the veto Or the' act incorporating the Packer Iron Company. ' Number eight vetoes, a bill providing for change in the proceedings in actions of eject ment., Governor PAnExt considered it would mare rather than improve, the existing law. Number nine vetoes a supplement to an act regulating lateral railroads: This was designed to gide certain piivileges to the owners of mines'of iron ore, in the county of Blair, to construct railroads, under .the surface of the earth, without the consent of the owners of such lands. Number ten vetoes an act extending the li mits of the borough of Beallsville, in the county of Washington, for school purposes. The Governor vetoed it because such exten sion might be made by the authorities existing within the county, if the interests of those im mediately concerned demanded it. Number eleven vetoes an act to authorize the appointment of commissioners to examine and adjust certain claims, etc., referring par. titularly to the claims of the Commonwealth against JAMES J. Dorm, and claims of DULL against the Commonwealth. The first section authorizes the Auditor General to settle these claims; but the second section provides for the meeting of commissioners to adjust them. The'.Governor pertinently suggests that the two sections are inconsistent and irreconcila ble' with each other, and therefore vetoes the bill, • ' Number twelve vetoes an act for the relief of AVIIISTIT3 J. Kum?, of Lancaster county, a soldier of the war 'of 1812. The preamble to this bill states that 11r. Nunn, in the discharge of his duty as a soldier in the war of 1812, contracted a diseaso, and subsequently became deaf and affected in his eye-sight, and unable to attend to his business as a druggist. The bill directs that he be paid a gratuity of forty dollars, and an annuity of the same amount, payable half-yearly, commencing on the first day' of May, 1859. Tho Governor states that a sense of duty reluctantly compels him to re. fuse his sanction to it, inasmuch as it is the proper and legitimate province of the Natiolud Government to make such provision in cases of the kind A as justice requires; and if Penn sylvania established a precedent in tho case of Kelm, of granting pensions to any other per. SIM than those engaged in the Revolutionary 'war, it would probably be followed up hy many Nituiber thirteen vetoes a supplement to an '7ctsa• :b._ —attar or -aho - -Aireet, road Company, and for other purpMs, .roved the 16th day of April, A. D. 1838. This bill contemplated the revival of qn old act, authorizing the commissioners of the counties of Berko and Schuylkill to subscribe for shares of the capital stock of a bridge company. Since that act was adopted our State Constitution has been amended •by a provision prohibiting municipal corporations from subscribing to the stock of incorporated companies, and the bill, therefore, contained an unconstitutional provision. Number fourteen vetoes an act for the di. vision of South Union township, in the county of Fayette. Inasmuch as the Courts of Quarter Sessions have full power to divide townshipa and to alter their lines to suit the conveaienee of their inhabitants, the Go vernor vetoes the bill, that the matter for which it provided may be referred to a local tribunal. - Number fifteen vetoes a bill to incorporate the Western goal-oil and Iron Company. It is vetoed for the reasons stated in the veto of tho act to incorporate tho Packer Iron Com Number sixteen vetoes an act Tainting to the directors of the poor, and a house of em ployinent in the county of Washington. This bill provides for the presentation of all bills against the Washington-county poor house within one year from their respective dates, under the penalty of debarring creditors for ever if this provision is not complied with. An error occurred in the bill, which, if it had be come a law, would have caused great injustice; and for that and several other reasons the Go vernor vetoed it. Number seVenteen vetoes a supplement to an incorporating the Richmond and Schuylkill Railroad Company, approved March 26, 1869, which provides that the said company shall be authorized to use the track or portion of track of any other passenger railroad company of our city, upon paying half the cost of the construction of said track, and a proper por tion of the expenses necessary to keep it in repair. The Governor objects to this bill, that It arbitrarily and unjustly fixes the com pensation to be granted for the use of private property, without reference to its true value, and truly says that the parties to be affected in such cases are entitled to a heating in regard to the valuation of their property, and, until that is had, no reliable judgment on the subject can be formed. The tenor - of these vetoes is highly com mendable, and will be warmly approved by the people of our State. Special legislation is one nf th'e greatest curses that have over beget our country., and we are OA to perceive that Governor .PAcitna has so resolutely resisted ft on- all proper occasions. It Is much more probable that equal and exact justice will be administered by the local tribunals ,autho rind qo decide questions In regard •to the benndary, lines of townships, the Incorpo ration of now compAples, and hundreds of other matters of local interest, than by a body of lekislators assembled at Harrisburg, who can devote but little attention to these 'multifarions subjects, and who are generally indifferent to the character of local legislation affecting any other districts than thous which they respectitely represent: When the Legis lature Is asked to depart from this wise rule, and to legislate upon subjects of which it knows little, and as a body cares less, it is frequently because — some , undue, advantage is sought, and, because those concerned expect to gain from legislative indifference or ignorance ot the subjeot-mattet privileges they fear local courts, fully 'apprised of• all the circumstances, would pot grant. If the attontlon of our legisla tors ivas devoted mainly to the consideration of Bravo questions of public Interest, affecting the welfare of, the people of tho whole Com roonwealth;ind their time not consumed in Conferring special privileges, nnsanetioned by justice, and obtained' through favoritism and skilful boring,- the substantial interests of our State would be greatly benefited.

Wesumarox, Jan, 13, 1860. In one of Mr. Buiwer's last and best novels he lifts the veil from the 'innermost smote of English statesmanship, and shows bow often the ablest of the political leaders of that country are Indebted to the unknown and unheralded skill, labor, and learning of others. What is true of that country is singularly true of this. We see the prominent figures playing their ports on the stage, but we never see or hear of those behind the scenes—with out whom they would be sorry actors indeed. We see the hands on the face of the olook, but not the machinery that moves them. I have often thought that it might repay the investigation if a list of the herd-working and obscure intellects engaged in Washington and elsewhere in supplying brains and material to our great men could be prepared and printed. Take the single case of the Committee of Ways and Means in the Rouse of Representatives. This is the most important of all the standing commit tees. In it the whole financial policy of the Go verurgent is annually and constantly develeped and ventilated. All the estimates of all the de. partmente aro scat into this financial mill, where they are plotted, winnowed, and prepared for the action of the Representatives of the people. The details are vast and complicated, calling for an immense amount of reflection, arrangement, and toil. The chairman of this committee is to the ElOllOO of Representatives what the Charm!. tor of the Exchequer Is to the English Parliament, and, next to the Speaker, the most important man In Congress. The Rouse is compelled to take Lie reports upon faith, and, therefore, the selection of the chairman is one of the most delicate and Im portant &Mee of the Speaker. Every dollar tip proprlated must first receive the sanction of the Committee of Ways and Means. The army, the navy, the Indian department, the general post office, the land office, the judiciary, In all its voil e:is ramifioationd; the officers of the customs, the foreign agents of the Government, in every part of the world; indeed, tho entire Administration of this Confederacy comes to this committee, seek ing the means for its continuance and its opera- lona. Iningine snob a personage as Jehu G. Jonoa at the head of the Committee of 'Ways and Means. Utterly unskilled in the colenae of government, anbleat in intellect, on Inferior lawyer, a very awkward parliamentarian, ho could no more mac ter the labor or comprehend the details of that po• sition than a blacksmith could understand the ma chinery of a watch. Sven the most accomplished statesman is compelled, when placed in the chair manship of this committee, to rely upon the efforts of others. The brains of the Committee of Ways and Means are supplied by-Mr. Cochran, a clerk, (a modest, quiet, unassuming man, who has served in that capacity fora number of years,) who de votes himself at all times to the prepare- lon of the bills and to the collootion of data and information from the various depart ments of the Government. Them, who know him Teak of him as an extraordinary intellectual ma chine. His knowledge of figures is sciacourate, Ilia Integrity so unquestionable, that his calculations are aooepted and adopted at once. Bo may be said, in ked, to bo counsellor, adviser and director in re ference to the most important appropriations. No scheme, however craftily concealed, can pass un aballenged by this sentinel at the door of the na tional treasury. I understand that he has already prepared all the bills for the aoticri of Congress, end when the Speakor is elected, and the Commit tee of Ways and Means appointed, they will bo immediately presented to the Rouse. And yet who ever boars of Mr. Cochran, except those who sire to inquire into the secrets of the business in this great political centre? Another of these unknown, yet indispensable public servants, is Mr. John M. Barclay, of In •liena, Journal clerk of the Mouse of Represen tatives. Mr. Barclay is as thoroughly versed In the parliamentary secrets and details as Cochran is in the expenditures and revenues of the cievernment. eVe you enter the House, when it is fully organized, you will see standing on the right of the Speaker is young gentleman, named Thaddeus Maurice, who may be called the prompter of the presiding officer. U basal:Ala service as a page, and I think It wee Mr. Cobb who first took advantage of his skill and talent, and from that day ho has been consulted by all the Speakers. When a now Congress assembles 'it is curious to observe how rapidly ho becomes ac quainted with the names and appearance of tho members; and those who applaud the Speaker for his readiness and proficiency do not know that the quiet, unpretending young man by his side fre quently puts the words into the Speaker's mouth. The nomination of Francis J. Grand as consul to Havre remains suspended in the Senate. This lose was found too strong for that thoroughly sectionalized institution. Grand had entitled bim• self to the favorable oonsideration of the Presi dent and the Senate. He bad betrayed the one times without natal:or, and had become the echo of all the hatredsof the other. Ile had denounced every patrlotle Northern man, and deserted Judge rss.sossar atter. meat sacred obligations to him, and had assisted in all the proftriptimlS - smell have disgraced the present corrupt and treacherous dynasty. Bat for all this the Benabi revolts, and I mush fear that Louis Napoleon will not have an opportunity of adding to his staff' of admirers this faithful and fertile emissary of Mr. Buchanan. The Charleston Convention, which assembles on the 23d of April, Is looked forward to with Intense interest by all parties. Judge Douglas Is oarrying Northern State after State, and will, um - 1110.01mm- Sly, have a largenumber of delegates. His friends 3onfidontly calculate upon a majority. In the meanwhile the South is consolidated against him and his dootrines with the greatest unanimity, Even Kentucky has been forced into the slave-node column, and it is predicted that every Southern State will follow the example of Alabama, Georgia, and Mississippi. The South will not be content ,vith an unexplained declaration In favor of the Cincinnati platform. Judge Douglas and his friends will offer this, but their proposition will be unhesita tingly and indignantly rejected. The sentiment of the Southern people has become so extreme, and their lemands upon Northern Democrats so exacting, that no concessions need be expected. John Brown has united them upon the policy of the pro tection of slavery in the Territories against the popular will, and if Mr. Buchanan shall encored in his Mexican programme; if the idea of an armed occupation of that country is carried out, as now advocated by many of our statesmen, wo shall sea mob a violent revolt in reference to the diepoel- Bon of that territory as has never been witnessed In any country. What will be the result? The secession of the ultra South from the Charleston Convention, or the withdrawal of the Northern majority. In either event, Douglas will, I think, be presented as a nominee for the Presidency on hie own platform, and if be can manage to make a Southern pdrty, outside of the fire•eaters—which seems to be the expectation of his friends—he will be a formidable candidate. The Southern Americans will then be sailed upon to ohooso between the dleunionists and Douglas, and a Mueller choice will bo presented to the Democrats of the North. Many of the Southern politicians see the force of tide reasoning, and are preparing for the emergency. OCCASIONAL. The White Mountains. Among the new and ornamental books that cur vivo the holidays and will always be admired, Is the superb volume called " The White their Legends, Landscapes, and Poetry," ad vertised in another column by Messrs. T. B. Pe terson dr, Brothers. Its author to Rev. T. Starr King, who has lectured hero often, before delighted audiences, and is therefore well knowneto many of our readers as an accomplished and elegant writer. Lie has described the White Mountains, and all that relates to them, more charmingly than any place or region of summer resort has ever been described. The tourist who is contemplating a visit to the White Mountains should provide him self with the book and road it beforehand. The tourist who has already explored the enchanted region will find new delight in reading and re reading It. The illustrations are worthy of the text. We have never aeon more beautiful wood engravings. The paper Is delicately tinted, and the printing is perfect; the binding, too, is of the first order. "The White hills" will always bo a popular and attractive book. PHOTOGRAPH OP Tint RSV. DR. RYDRR.-11 will be gratifying to the numerous friends of this die linguished divine, whose remains will be borne to their last resting-place to-day, to learn that an admirable photographio likeness of him wee ob tained on the eve of his fatal illness—the first he ever sat for it this oily. ;Oa the Mb instant, at the solicitation of a friend, he sat for a pleura at Mr. MoClees', No. OM Chestnut street, with the understanding that he was to nail on the following day to pronounce upon the impression. Sickness intervened, and this engagement was unfulfilled. What is not a little remarkable, the descriptive sketch of the lamented minister which appeared in The Press of yesterday was the Ant intima tion given to the photographer of who the vane• table sitter for the uncalled•for picture was. Mr. MeClees has kindly furnished us with a oopy, which, we may add, is executed In the best style of the art. The fine head and beautiful face of Dr. Ryder are admirably defined, and the attitude has the grace of naturalness in a remarkable de gree. 'We presume duplicate copies will be fur nished, if desired.

Correm l iondenoe of The Pram] IfAnnISBURa, Jen. 13 "A further supplement to the West Philadel. phis Passenger Railway Company" was read in place by Mr. Abbott. It gives them authority to continuo their road from Third street along the south side of Market to Front street, and thence along the north side of Market to a point of con nection to be made at Eighth Street; also the stockholders power to oast ono vote for every share of stook held; and to carry meats, vegetables, and other marketing on their road, between the hours of six o'elook in the evening and six o'clook iu the morning.

Tho Atlintnlotrittlon llt Il A correspondent of the Chian° Time., gives' the following amusing amount of a Danite County Qon. volition in Illinois: GREAT EXCITIMENT AT WiIEATON-TIMMILNDOUP OATIIERINO. Editor To-day our village baa been ail excitement and enthusiasm. It had been all• nouticed by the n +linty United States marshal that the Donnas were to hold their County Convention at this plane, and everybody expected that our village - would be tilled to overflowing with Able gates. The landlord at the hotel in this place, in anticipation of a vast gathering, had butchered two hogs, so as to be provided with proper food for the multitude. Ike Cook and a large delegation from Chicago wore to be in attendance, and a large number from Naperville also. When the train from Chicago acme in sight the excitement was intones; the deputy was wild with joy, the train slackened speed, it stopped, a man stepped out of the ears. several others fol lowed him, every one thought the delegates bed come; the whistle sounded, the train started off, ovary man who had stopped ma of tho ears stepped in again—not one remained behind. Tho deputy was not disheartened—not he. Ile went over to the grocery and prepared a mixture, composed of whiskey and hot water, and drank to the sueeess of the !party," Ifs spoke : " Wait till the delegates come from Naperville, and then see the crowd !" Everybody watched, with greet interest, the road from Naperville. At length, a team was seen; the deputy shouted "There they come." On came the team, but It proved to be a load of basswood. The owner of the team, thinking that the "crowd" were admiring his horses, raised the price $5O at once. The deputy looked as thOugh he bad been sold, but he only said " Let's have some toddy." At length the train from the West arrival, and a solitary individual might have been seen making tracks for the place where the Convention was held or supposed to be. The Convention organised by choosing Frederick C. Itogemaun president, and F. C. Ilagonumn secretary. Ilagemann moved to appoint a committee to ermine credentials. Here Esq. Hagemann interposed. Ito said he did not intend to make a speech ; but he thought the president and secretary should examine the credentials. There might be two sets of delegates from some of the towns, and it world take a cove• mittee longer to settle the disputes which might arise titan it would the president and secretary. The mover here Interrupted the speaker, and said he would accept the amendment. The credentials were then examined, and the following delegates reported to be entitled to seals In the Convention *. Addison. Mr. Ilagemann ; Bloomingdale, F. Heymann ; Wayne, F. C. Hage mann Winfield, Frederick Heymann ; Milton, Dr. F. 0. liagemann ; York, Deputy D. S.

On motion, the ohair appointed the deputy mar. shal a committee to report the names of delegates to the Springfield Convention, to ho hold on the 10th Inst. Whilst the committee was preparing Its report, the oheirman was "shilling " in foot, he was seen to " smile " several times At last the committee was reedy to report, and the most intense enthusiasm prevailed in the Con• ventlon Dr. F. 0. Hag:mann, of Milton, and the deputy marshal, of York, woro reported as delegates, and the report was immediately adopted ; and F, C. Ilagemann, of Wayne, and Frederick C.

XXXVI CONGRESS.--FIRST SESSION. . S. CAPITOL, WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. SENATE. Nut baton, having adjourned till Monday. USE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Irit, of Virginia, said there wore two proposiss in the resolution of Mr. Clark, of Mum First, that the doctrines of the helper hook ainottrreetionary and hostile to the peace of the antry. Was this not true to the very letter ?he asked the question. Tho next was, that member of this Rouse who endorsed or re. nommwd the dootrines therein affirmed, is fit to be Spew of this Homo. Was not this also true to the or? Ile wanted en anawer. Mr...:OIIAM, of Ohio, wished only to say to the gentian, the Mouse, and the country, that the gentler' from Virginia denounces that book, withoutmitation, an an boon(liary publication. Ile damns the last will and testament of Wash- ington,tich is contained in that book. Tho re. solutimenounces the unanimous declarations of the Cmntion of Virginia of 1784, inediketing the eCtellB at Philadelphia in that year. The resolut denounces all the truthful words of the dinguished Virginian, McDowell, namely: "You ke your slave to labor as an osc, you may Opel him to live to work, and work to live, ewe the idea that be was created free will abide M him, because ho has the right to the hope emtnortality." The resolution denounces the lig sentiment of Jefferson, copied from hie "Broken Virginia," namely: "I tremble for my entry when I regent that (led ie just, end has no attute to take sides against slaves for their righted. liberty." The gentleman from Virginia shouldso remember that the denunciation in the resolun is a denunciation of the words of the Contintel Congress, when about entering upon the son-years war, wherein it 1171.5 said in the Artielef Association, by the members thereof, that *held every man or community of men as mord of American liberty who were not opposed to theellio in slaves. The resolution also denounces that fief the Declaration of Independence which holdshese truths to be self-evident, "that all men ere created equal, and endowed with cer tain atlienable eighth, among which are life, llbor, and the pursuit of happiness," eta., and that when any form of government becomes de struere of any of those anis, it is the right of the vele to alter or nbllish it," The word aholti is embodied in this memorable deelara tion,,r which your father (to Mr. Smith) ant my fathdonght, through the storm and darkness of the fren-yeare war. M Sutra replia that he trusted the House un dersell that the member from Ohio endorses the Haig book. AI BINGHAM'. I ask the gentleman whether he rerniatcs those sentiments. DS Bunn. That is not the questioa. Iv. Buvonan. Itie not, eh? Is. Blum I wish the Rouse and country to umrstand that the member from Ohio endorses thefelper book. For this he doserVes the dotes tath and scorn of every man who forme ft part of theAmorican Union! [Applause.) The gentle ma refers to the sentiments of distinguished Rove lubnary men. Many of them Ido endorse, while oars are false in philosophy and false in fact. Buwhen I make a bargain I stand by it. The gen- Oman, however, makes a bargain, then spurns it. If Tefforson entertained certain notions on slavery, wht had that to do with the Federal Constitution Di not the Convention wbioh framed the Coast'. talon adjust that question? Is not this the fact? .Ir. Botulism. It did no such thing. They ex puged the word slavery from the document. Ir.

I regret the gentleman is so 111- mmterly. lticlivinnr, of Pennsylvania, asked the gen tles:lan from Virginia how ho was to know the doe trbss of the Helper book ? Me had never reed 14; hid seen it only In the hands of the gentlemen o the Democratio Bide, and with none of the con tide was he familiar, except from the extracts ehiah had been road. Did the gentleman from lirglnia expect him or the members with which he nted to stultify themselves by disavowing a book e which they knew nothing ? There might be binge in the book he utterly condemned. lie npeated that he never read the book, and there sas no power that could compel him to read it. to might, however, do so ton years from this time, b ace what caused the present "tempest in a Minot" Mr. Serra. Dirge the duty of the gentleman to enlighten himself. Mr. McNamur. If I thought It pertinent to egistration I would read it, but as I don't think it 3 ' I'll not do so. Mr. Smith thought differently, and concluded tie remarks in support of the resolution, MOMS. CLARK of Missouri, DAVIDSON Of LOUISi• toe, TAYLOR of Louisiana, Bormexr of Lords'. arta, severally explained why they voted for Mr. Maynard. Mr. firEvglOt, of Pennsylvania, rote in an appa rently serious mood. What ho said was a personal matter. It was well known that he now departed from his usual course to correct newspaper stele atents. Be had voted for Mr. Gilmer. This might require some explanation from him, He sent up a newspaper to have an extract rend. IL- 114 took It In his hand for that purpose, lices"'n. It turned out to be a Gerinanitowapaper. Mr. Brea:n.l3 retired, amid hearty laughter, to a distant part of the hull. Mr. CONKLIN, of New York, called attention to a telegraph despatch from Washington, in which It was said that ho had passed a note to Mr. Barksdale, of Mississippi. All he desired to say was, that the statement wee entirely without bundation. He never had the pleasure of holding ►correspondence of any kind with the gentleman. , Mr. BARKS D Aixoorroborntcd this statement, and said there was not the slightest foundation for that deanateh. ]jr. VALLANDIGHAV acid he had been the second of Mr. Conklin In passing over to Mr. Barksdale a bit of court piaster In an envelope. This was all that passed between them, and gave rho, no doubt, to the report referred to. [Laughter Mr. Ilvernwoon, of Georgia, explained the roe sone why be had voted for Mr. Maynard. Ile, with four others, voted for him, and thus made an ho• neat effort to organise. Mr. HATTON, of Tennessee, proceeded to show that the Democrats and Southern Oppositionista united, could not have elected a Speaker against Mr. Sher. men. There was a way by which the latter could be defeated, and that was for both to unite on Mr. Gilmer, who could lecture the support of other gen. Hereon Mr. Ertignseett, of Tennessee, made an explana lion ca to the resolations passed by the Tennessee Legislature in regard to the Speakership. Some of the Democrats of that body hated him, and ho loathed and despised them. Me would not be go. veined by their request. He said, as a modest man, that allparties in his district had ten.fold more respect for hie judgment as to doing what i 3 right than fur the gentleman who offered those regain t ions. Mr. liarioN resumed, notioing tome of the diftl• citifies in the way of the Southern Demoorats giving their support to Mr. Gilmer. In re; iewing the Lotion of the Democratic caucus, he sold that no Indication was there given of a disposition to vote with the Americans for Speaker. On thocontrary, they would not unite on the American nominee for fear of an utter disruption of their party at home. Mr. RHAIiAN, of Texas, remarked that the caucus adjourned without any action. Other explanations were made. Mr. Itittmi, of North Carolina, mid in that caucus his object was to pave the way for en ergo. nization, that the Americana might select a nowt• nee from among the Democrats. Mr R error said the American party had been widely vilified by the party prose of Washington. it was national, for the Union end the enforcement of the laws!. During the proceedings, Mr. EnnICIDALIt In quired why Mr. Hatton did not join the Democratic party and rovist the aggression of the Republicans, and ounce his guerilla warfare on the Demoorata Mr. flarrox replied that during his canvass he sold the men that took a higher ground than ho did be had never met. and had added, if one such could be found in his travels be would give him an open track. Mr. BtalCanAtit Inquired whether Mr. Hatton had yet voted for a Democratic nominee for Speaker, or for any save a member of the Ameri• can party. Mr. HATTON replied that there Well never a time when his vote would have °looted a Democrat. But there was a thus when the votes of the De mocrats claiming. per errellette4, to be defenders of the rights of the South, could have triumphed over Mr. Sherman and elected Mr. Gilmer, a Southern men. Mr. BAIIKRIMI.P. A Fouthern men acceptable to a portion of the Black Ropublioans Mr. horror mooted that they could have elected a Southern man and concluded his speech. Mr. RAIIRNILME remarked that he would never vote for Mr. Gilmer. Mr. PENninrireN, of New Jersey. sold the de• bate was certainly of no practical utility Gentle. men have rot right to blame. ono another for the votes they had given. Their constituents might, however, do so. The country domande an urgent- Won, and that the Ii mse proceed to the business for which the gentlemen wore sent here. It was certain that no man can get a majority The Gomm must then adopt the plurality rule, and those who will not vote for It will be responsible to the'eountry for a non.organization. Gentlemen had spoken against the plurality rule as unconstitutional ; but were not Mr Cobb and ilr.

Iterksdftle, Clark, of klimmirl, Lemke, end others, objected. Mr Wistittnes. of Maine, suggested that Mr Pennington move the previous question. Mr. LEAHY. Contended that the resolution Wall only road for information Mr. STAXTOX litnNOSted that Mr Leaks could not make his point of order until Mr. Pennington had yielded the floor. Several gentlemen rapidly discussed the points of order raised for and against Mr Pennington's right to move a vote on the resolution. Mr. Wimei,ow stify,qrsted that there should ho time given for relleotton, and moved that the House adjourn. Mr. Pr.sttivoror wanted to know whether he had not the right to call for the previous question on his resolution. 'filo Clerk replied that a point of order bad been raised by Mr. Lesko, which must first be mottled, Mr. LEAKE contendo.l that Mr. Pennington's reso lotion Wall read only for information, and ho could not have it noted en until the three propositions already pending wore dhipoyed of, one of those of a similar purport having beau choral by Beau Hiokman.

He also thought the walls too thin, and had never worked on a Large mill where the walla were so thin ; the mord tr used was good, and the bricks wore hard but rough. Morris Knowles, a carpenter who worked on the mill, testified that he did not know that he had ever worked . . . • in a mill with the walls so thick as thin; ne thought nt the time that the shoring of the walls was insufficient; the saps of the pilasters were too small; he thought he had never seen r; mill so nrich cut up with windows, which necessarily weaken the walls. Ife did not think the creeks in the chimney weakened the building mate rially ; he could not let give a decided opinion as to the cause of the fall h.t thought from preheat appearances that the pillars gave way first. Ilanjanun Coolidge. who was asaistant engineer of the Essex Company at the time the Priubcrton mill was building, testified that the soil was a remarkably solid sandy loam. under that was the boulder foundation. ex tending three or four feet, composed of stones five hundred pounds weight down to the size of a man's head. and tinder this tee vrlint is called in I ascetics huddling, sometimea so solid that it breaks out in lumps when dry ; when wet, as on the site of the Pemberton mill. a little mud leaks out ,• under that is a peculiar quicksand, which it is useless to excavate; we only touched this in excavating the foundation of the wheel building, which is not in the main building ; never was a to•indation wall laid in Lawrence equal to that is solidity aid strength; it was made with stone long enough to go all the way across; 1 think the foundation will be found to be solid now. Mr. Coolidge thought it was intended in the original plan that the pilasters ehould be carried epithets, stories ; he did not know why the plan was altered; he consi dered the projections on which the timbers rested in the upper stories strong and safe enough. If the floors fell in no wall could resist them; if the walls had been two feet they would have been prostrated as quick as these; the work was done in the moat thorough manner ; the walls wore bonded between the woolen caps and sills. My opinion is that the wall was strong enough (or the service in that mill for a thousand years, if the foundation and doors should pot gine out • he hod some objections to the pillars, which were beim: hurried forward by Mr. Knowles the carpenter; he made a re quisition upon Captain Higelow, nnd some polancere sent from Boston by the owners; they were not ac cording to our plan, which was like those with chaps, curl, as in our other mills; the first load that conic . . were of poor iron, and on complaint borne made to Cap tain lin:mow, he saia he would write about it to air.

I A piece of a pillar from the ruins was brought in and nn egamluation vas found to Ire extremely defective.) The sante., said that he always felt uneasy about the iron yodlars; when the mill fell he attributed it at once to defects in the pillars. In reply toe queetron by a Juror. he said he Judged from whet he had learned from the testimony here, and reliably statements out side, that the fall of the mill was owing to a pillar breaking near trio centre of the mill : to break one pa. Inr would leave unsupported an area of fiftv-eight be twenty feet. The greet strength of the floors would tend to destroy the walla when the support gave way, and also to break off the pillars when once started. It was said at first that there was a auccesaron of cracking noise. whlch ran into a general roar; I have no doubt the budding fell in that way the mill is of great width, and each pillar bears two parts of the weight end each wall ono. . . Win P. Putnam testified as to the building of the mill. He said it wes the steadied he ever knew; had no apprehension about the cracks in the chimney ; the sides and ends were so clamped together with iron that we had no apprehension from that cause. lie testified farther, but the evidence wail not important.
