Witte, of Pennsylvania, are both on the ground, rallying their friends preparatory to the Reading Con'vention of the 20th of February. Time was when Demooratio nom inntions were made by the delegates of the masses. in Cm Rates. Now they. are made In Washington. What one man.deaires shell he done must be done• As the President takes snuff, all his followers must sneeze. As ha accepts, or rejects, or changes au opinion; they mast follow. lie example. The de luded politicians of Pennsylvania, who think they are eating for the pintoes, are only car rying out his orders, expressed through his janizaries in., °Mee. Not only is the gutter natorial candidate to be Indicated from here. but the delegates to ;Charleston, the electoral ticket, candidate for mayor of Philadelphia, and the ....tty-ftvo candidates for Congress. This is a very tempting list, and some skill is required to get through with it successfully, Mr. Buchanan has sent for ell the peculiar leaders of his party to as sist in the work. Among others, W. B. Reed is here, and has-been for some days. You know that this smooth and silken courtier issupposed entirely to control your Collector Baker. The ex-minister captured the collector et an early day—or, to use the Witty expression of a venerable old lino Whig, of Philadelphia, "absorbed" him. This fact doubly endears Mr. Rood to the President, Um lattir having his dotibts loot Bolter, under curtain oiroumstances, might indulge an occasional impulao ewer& the lamon v eter 'reticle," It was estential therefore, to scours a reliable sentinel to act the part of adviser and friend to Mr. Baker, and who better than W. B. R..? But ho is fitter for higher service. Tho President requires his talents in other departments. In the matter, for instance, of fill ing the official slate with such names as will satisfy the majesty in power, no man could bo found at onus more really useful or more ably unscrupulous. To maintain sash a relation to an Administration is precisely accord. ing to Mr. Reed's tastes. no has served a faithful apprenticeship to the business, and well knows the secret ways and winding paths that lead to power; knows the•mettle and the measure of men ; knows who can be used and who abused ; and, above all, knows the jealous, and envious, and malignant heart, even toils inaudible tbrobbings, that beats in the Presidential bosom, Under that smiling and graceful exterior there is' an amount of in trigue and skill-La combination of selfishness and scholarship—nn' industrious malevolence and a cultured cunning—that go to make up a moat dm ierdus adversary, as well as a Most super-service this ally. The first trouble, li - waver, of 11r. Reed and the President IP. low to dispose of tho nomination for locernor. Dawson has lately loomed up in large , WoportiOne. Before this 11 , 118 evident, the powers hat aro were unmistakably for Witte. Your %timbal Yost was, and is, his most devoted backer Rut Dawoon's friends have somewhat changed ths •ondition of affairs, and Witte fumes at a great •ate.

The eloquent son of Captain Tyler (Robert) Is n Washington consulting with the President, Mr [teed, Mr. Baker, Mr. Napoleon Bonaparte _lmmo, the postmaster of Philadelphia, and aims in reference to tho Reading Convention • as I underatand, is extremely anxious that he Cone. should adopt• an ultra slave-oode alley, and thls •esition Is warmly backed by he Southern members Cabinet, partleularl) hose who are hostile to u Douglas.

Mennwhile the struggling candidate. br• Governor, who are looking net merely to the tomieation, hut than election, are ail imploring that he-powers that be should defer somewhat to public pinion In favor of the doctrines of tho Little Giant. those men know Well that if Mr. Tykes views !recall at Reading, the only parson rho will be ;ratified will be tho President hitnaolf, white the treat mass of the party wilt look upon 'such an en. lorsement no a personal insult, and rift treat It ae mrdingly. Mr. Reed is destroy/ of becoming a delegate to Charleston, and Mr. Bahama Is anxious that he ;head go there as his fugleman. On the ollte. hand,' lion. Josiah Randall, highly respected Philadolphia, and extremely devoted to the ex• reale South, remembering his efficient aid to Mr. t3isebanan at Cincinnati, while Mr. Reed we' tacitly and coolly awaiting the result, and recall ng numbers of pleasant aequnintonoes he made Whilst entertaining, with generous hospitality, the 'Wends of the Pennsylvania candidate for President tt the Burnet House, would regard hie own election tsa Senatorial delegate to Charleston as a high tompliment. But Mr. Reed seems to be (Minted -rah - a singular kind of envy of Mr. Randall. In 'act, the latter, so well known for liberality, rarmth of heart, and patriotio Intentions, and to 'tindly remembered by the Democratic party rilr his gallant support of the Administration of lames IC. Polk during the Mexican war, is an -.hjcot of the gym:test uneasiemes in the eyes of Wm. B. Reed, anti nothing would give tjte sister .to China more distress than to hear of the dectionof Mr. Randall as a representative of the Newt:ratio party in the Charleston Convention. fir. Randall's views are not my views. I have 'aid he goes the full length of the Southern exact ion, but I cannot forbear this allusion to the man, when I recollect that he was a Democrat during the days of Simon Snyder, and that even while spposing the Democratic party he was all the time t frank and magnanimous adversary, differing in !his respect vastly from the oily, industrious, and unforgiving leader of the Opposition forces, Mr Reed, the Itlehelieu of the present Federal Adral ciatration. To complete thin dish of Pennsylvania politica, I have received- almost direct information from the White Rouse that your excellent townsman, Mr. Richard Vaux, whogo numerous friends aro looking orward to hie nomination as the Democratic can• date for Mayor in the epring, is being splendidly bewboonlod," to Wer a word made immortal by %lewd Benton. Mr. Vaux la a delegato to the Reading Convention, and his seat in that body IP most unjustly contested. In order to propitiate 'dm, certain promises have been held out, among whioh is one that no opposition will be made to his taking his seat 'ln the Convention, if ho will go here and humbly accept the dote now being con• tooted for him by the dootors in the laboratory 'at this other end of the avenue." They hero wen intimated to Lim, It is said. their disposition aooept him as a candidate for Mayor, if he will he a good buy nt Reading, but nothing is more certain than that they intend to deprive Lim of the aominatinn. Postmaster Browne has taken once• 100 publicly to say in this city that Mr. Vona wee out of the ring, and that he could not and should pot ito the nominee, One of the objectirina to Mr. Vaux is that be hap. pene to be supported by &large number of the rank and ilia of the Decliners%) party—by the very men, in fact, who contributed ao essentially to Mr Du ihanan's election in 1811—those, in a word, who were so violently persecuted by William B. Recd while he was Distriet Attorney, and against whom that most adroit manager cherishes intense hatred. A favorite trick of the party managers hero is to seize hold of every popular man and try to commit hlra to their /amities. As an instance, I find that, while they are assailing Mr. Vann-, they affect the neatest possible attachment for Major Chariot J. Biddle, whom they are putting forward as their candidate for Mayor, forgetting that everybody is ilways damaged by such support Mr. Du- Annan a fee , days ago pronoueced a warm eulogy in favor of Major Diddle, and among other jesuitical ihinge. said " that ho ought to he nominated, because ho would get the trace of .Upper Tendons.' " It is due to Major Biddle to sny that be was one of the earliest to denounce the Ue aompton policy of the Administration, that he re• gamed the entire course of the President and his Cabinet on the Kansas question as an outrage, and that lie has never hesitated to express the strongestsympathy in favor of the movement which rebuked their proscriptions; but the President has an idea that 'serialise Major Biddle mat Mr Reed aro warm pennonl friends, therefore the former ono ho controlled hi the event of his citation.

After I aimed my last, John Cochrane, of New York, Morris, of Illinois, Vallandigham, Cox, and Pendleton, of Ohio, and many °there, changed their votes for Smith, of North Carolina, and that gentleman's vote was run up to one hundred and twelve, no you are aware, leaving him mines three of,tbo Speakorehip. During the protracted ballot in which the chang ing of votes took place, the Muse preeented one Of 'the mot( exeltinglyateresting scenes. 'L to odrobinatfon effeoted between the Democrats and Amerlitano,D wao,thought, would prole a coup d' Oat. Aolnember after member defined his posi tion; "Pitobed • foto" the "Know-Nothings," lialtdotlealiy determined to lay hie heart on the Oar ofiatAolyro, anti} paying a compli ment to the gentleman for whom they bad voted, changed to Mr. Smith, burets of tatisfaotion broke from the Demoerats, and the other Ade hie'' looked rather confounded. So certain was the -anticipa tion of Smith's election that the I:voting Star gave the probable fact, and, as I am informed, guns were fired at the City Halt in honor of the supposed quasi-triumph of the Democracy, albeit they accepted the nominee of the American party. It was not until late in the evening of Friday that the city, not concentrated about the hotel?, actually, and fora reality, was made aware that a Speaker was not elected, and that Mr. Smith, about whom everybody was anxious to know anise• thing—was. not elevated to the third oiliqe in the ovorntu et t. That gentleman at ono time was elected—that is he had sullioient votes---but you should have seen the effect when Junkin changed his vote from Smith to Sherman, and was followed, as the exi• gooey demanded, by Scranton, Jos. Morrie, and Nixon, of New Jersey. This turned the bibles completely, and the effect wee startling. With breathless emotion the crowded galloriss awaited every move, and they did not hide their feelings of approval or dislike. On almost every faint you could read an expectation that the struggle would be ended, and the general feeling was in favor of whoever would be elected, without reference to polities ; consequently there was no leek of grarnb• ling as the vast multitude disgorged itself on the Avenue after the adjournment. To-clay the Capitol Is like a hive. The corridors, lobbies, and doorways aro crowded to excess. Tho ladles found themselves on the floor, or rather worn introduced there by ox• Governor Smith, of Virginia, and other gallant gentleman ; but they were forced out of it by tho speeches of Garnett, Ashmore of North Carolina, and others, who pro tested against the unfairness of allowing a portion only of the fair on the floor. The fact was, the floor was crowded with a root ley multitude. All kinds of people—men, women, and obildron—were there, and it was somewhnt dif ficult to recognise the Representatives. The ef forts of in nay gentlemen by motion were directed to sift the elements, and , after some very persistent efforts of fliolonan, Cookeno, and ns the song says, "several hundred more," all the snugly-seated fair ones were displaced, and, with as little rus- tliog of oak at poestble, tnoved'out. Some, but by no means all of tho moo intrudere, followed. Attor some protracted discussion anont the pair ing of the couple of absent members, a ballot was ordered. The absentees aro Clark B. Cochrane of New York, John A. Staliworth of Alabama, and Tohn Y. Brown of Kentucky—who is here, but In eligible to vote in consequence of tender age. Mr. Sherman, amid the stretching of necks, and cries of " down In front," " aitdown," arose to ad dress the House. Ilia speech was very brief, but, like a Roman sword, it was strong, unwavering, and equal tempered from hilt to point. Alluding to the eight weeks' fidelity of his friends, be thank ed Arm; and believed they won' noli . only his high respect., but the esteem and approval of their con stituents. They had stood together while their ancient enemies—their only enemies—wore mat tered and disunited. They had stood faithful to their duties to the Constitution and the Union, amid threats of secession and disunion. Again 'honking hie friends, bethought they could present a stronger candidate than himself, and earnestly advised them to move In solid phalanx, end is one unwavering lino, for whatever candidate the Re publican party would present. The choice of that piety was soon indicated by Charles F. Adams, of Maasnehueetts, the first name an the roll, who, in answer to his name, aptiounowl William Pennington, of New Jersey. Adrift, whose name is third, also voted for him, ad at mco gave Ilia colleague from New Jersey an ad canoe on the vote of Sherman. Tho voting was atm and dotorminod, tho Ad ministrationist and American combinntion voting n a Politl body for Smith, and the Ropublioans litto for Penelngtna. There was a oheer as Win- 'or Davis voted for Smith, he having from the first Ind until Friday, voted without the slightest aria ion for Gilmer. 'no tbroo mcn who void bn •looted Smith on Friday still soattored thole votes. Thus, John G. Davis'voted for Allen, who returned lie delicate attention by Fliontlog, "John G.

CAPITOL, WASHINGTON, Jan. 30, SISNATE. Sundry memorials and petitions wore presented. Mr. Jonyhom, of Arkansas, presented a petition n fever of the homestead bill. Mr. ltrtiltsa, of lowa, corrected a statement of Mr. Tomehd. that lowa had paseed unconstitutional laws. The Republicans bad had posseoolon of that State for five yoard, and yet the General /Wombly had never passed !mg ho contravention of the NO tive•Mave law, or in derogation of the rights ofte people of the Southern Shoes. Mr. Toonns hoped the Senator was right in his correction. Ile expressly said that he hod not tho abstracts before him, and made the statements on information he lind rerefred up M , r. Illimanso», of Minnesota, moved an amend ment, declaring that the /ortitories are the com mon property of the people of the United States; that Congress has power to pees all necessary laws for the Territories; that It is the duty of Congress eo to legislate as to protect the interests of free labor in them, and that the Committee on Territo rks be in.tructed to insert a clause in the bills or. gatfiring Territories prohibiting shivery therein. Mr. Nlcum,sole. of Tennessee, then proceeded to address the Senate upon the Irrepressible con flict" doctrine. MEG MutAnns H.nntenvna, Jan. 30, 1860 SENATE. Mr. Ilitown's (of Mississippi) resolutions coming Mr. b.' tenobsoN, of Tennessee, read the roseltt lions of the Tennessee Legislature denouncing the irrepressible conflict" doctrinal's threatening the oxistemm of the Union. Ile mid the language of the resolutions wee severe, and coming from ono of the most conservative States, was particularly sig• nifloant. Ito attacked Mr. Seward's theory, and contended that there won no irreconcilable conflict between the interests of the two sections. Ho charged Mr. Seward as the author of the doctrines whirls had caused the John Brown foray, and has made tho present alienation between the motions, and may yet cause the destruction of the Union. Ho contended that thorn was no such conflict between slave and free labor, no claimed by the Senator from NOW York. He thought the langungo more like that of a highwaymen then that of n Wien statesman. The products of free labor and slave labor wore entirely differ ent. There can bo no conflict between cotton and the manufactures of the North, but the ex change of products is a mutual benefit to each see- Lion. The Senator from Now York claimed univer- eel abolition, for the benefit of the fro labor at the North. Ile protested, in the name of the free laborers at the South, who constitute a large ma jority, and were ready to repel any tumult with strong arms. Free labor wee to wesful at the Not.h, but slave labor was the truo system for the south. Why not let them enjoy peace ? Ho con tended that slavery woo not a one to the South, and quoted statistics, comparing five of the South ern States with tbo six New England States, the comparison being favorable to the South. Labor had been compelled to bow to the exactions of capi tal In the North, as everywhere glen, notwithstand ing the assertion of the Senator from New York. Free labor complains as If their condition was no better than slavery. Free labor has a conflict at home with capital ; therefore It was in no condition to enter into A conflict with olavo labor. It wee . . • a inero political expedient by the capitalists to dirert the free laborer frem the true con• filet, There Is conflict, politically, between the two sections. Ono side maintstlns that Slavery is a moral wrong, the other aide that it is a moral right. One State has no right to arraign soother on this moral question. Slavery is con fined to the sovereign Stoles by the Constitution. Matters of religion must be kept separate from political. The Constitution must be the highest law of political men. There wee a strong anti slavery sentiment in the Convention that formed the Constitution. yet the statesmen that framed the Constitution left the question t 9 the State, The feet that there is a conflict proves that the Orwell baton hoe been violated. Tho policy of the South is defensive, never aggressive. fle would frankly conned° that there was an antagonism to slavery among the fathers of the Republics, but they did net allow their moral belief to control their politi cal action. Ile claimed that the Supreme Court had decided in favor of the South. The (Transi tion to slavery seas the vital principle of the Re publican party. In the course of his remarks, Mr. Nicholson said, in the case of Reams, which was the last Territory that was likely to bo organized for genus time, in cabled' there wee a elation to establish slavery, the South had the empty triumph of the lame in her favor, while the North hod a substantial triumph. fie further said that the Republienne and Aboli tionists only differed as to the mode of reaching the same end. The result to the South wee equally dis astrous whether the abolition of slavery was encore isb ed by the slow process advocated by the Repub. [Manz or by the mode desired by the A bolitionintt. lie wee not prepared to decide in advance what con tingency would Justify a dissolution of the [Nino.

Two able-bodied men, who appeared to be in fine condition. asked to have their expeniec paid to New York, but the Board declined to accede b their re quest. An application from a third party, to be sent to Cecil county, Maryland, was, on motion of Mr. Maris, referred to the out-door agent, with power to sot. Mr. P. L.

The Doctor thinks that the system or discipline cannot be of advantage to the inmates 1.41 , long en they caution, to employ pauper help.

A motion was made authorizing the committee to proceed with the work : but after a oolletry between several of the members, the committee was instructed to re port a plan and an estimate for the construction of the building at the next meeting of the Board. Mr. Evans moved to raise the salary of Dr Barr, of the Seventh district, (mm eighty dollars net annum to two hundred dollars. The motion, after a little debate, was lost.

Finally, the consideration of it was post poned. The committee proposed to abolish the furry and the ferryman. This also lei to a Cs. occasion on the nature and dutiesot ferries end fee- rymen, General perquisites, '•soientifie perquisites." end so on.
