fir the Charleston nomination is Hon. James A.

has beim; himself prof:idly and well, and although
earagatly sympathising, with the extreme men of
the South, he possesses many traits of character
that commend himsto oonfidinee. You of Pennsyl
vania, at any rate,'have no cam of quarrel, with
him. He has always been the true friend of your
manufacturers, and I havo no doubt that if a pro
per bill should be reported by the Committee of
Ways and Means, in the House, for the modiflsa
tion of the present revenue laws, it will have in
him ar earnast supporter. • In tine connection, I
feel almost positive that we may ealoulate upon the

suppo of Robert H. Toombs, of Georgia. Let
Senator Bigler bestir himself in time, so that the
work may not fait off or be imperfectly done. .
I am glad to be' able 'to assure you that Hon.
John Sherman, chairman of the Committee of
Ways and Means in the House, is already at work,
and that he will report such a profit as will give
general satisfaction to 'our friends, and will en
counter comparatively little opposition from those
who have heretofore opposed us. Whatever may
be said of Mr. Shaman's particular views on the
slavery question, lie is a sound, upright, and honest

seated some appropriation bills. Mr. Mouton, Of
Alabama, wanted a eall of the House, and previous
thereto desired the ayes and noes on it. The lat
ter were had to kill time, and the roll was dig.
ponied with. Mr. Florence, alluding to the dedi
cation of the Washington statue on Wednesday,
desired to achieve an adjournment over to Thurs
day, to allow the ‘, orator of the day," Mr. SoCook,
a day to himself to prepare for the grand occasion.
The motion was objected to and withdrawn. Se
veral Senators are on the floor, it being under
staid that Pryor will announce the death of Mr.
Goode, of whom the Virginia writer is the succes
sor. Senators Mason (In his homespun), °flagman,
Brown of Mississippi, Wilson of Massachusetts,
Hunter, and Preston King, are at various points of
the floor: '
, After several interruptions from enthusiastic le
gislators, Mr. Roger A. Pryor at last obtained the
floor to announce the death of Ms predeeedsor in
the representation of the Fourth Congressional dis
triad:Virginia. The late Hon. Wm 0 Goode was
anative of Mecklenburg, Va., whore he was born
September 16, 1798, and died July 3d, 1869, almost
cempleting the ripe age of sixty-one. Ho had the
'privilege of an excellent education, which he as
complished at William and Mary College, within
whose venerable 'walls so many men eminent in
these days, and in the mantle of the State and na.
tipu, have issued. He was a prominent member of
the General Assembly of Virginia, and in the fa-
Mous discussion on the abolition of alavery In that
State.
Notwithstanding the temporary excitement crea
ted in favor of that movement, Mr. Goode re
tained his power of philosophic reflection. Ile was
not carried away with popular clamor, but he
manfully opposed himself to the current. Ile took
an active part in tho Constitutional Convention,
and, as chairman of the Finance Committee of the
State Legislature, adjusted the scheme of taxation,
which has undergone but slight alterations. Sub
sequently he served In Congress. Mr. Pryor did
not deem it necessary to remind many of his col
leagues of his predecessor's fulfilment of hie duties
in this body. With peculiar and exceedingly de
licate power of phraseology Mr. Pryor proceeded t o
analyse the mental character of the deceased. If
he was not strikingly superior, be was not defloient.
Ms brain was more remarkable for its just pro
portions than for any extraordinary development.
Though courteous and non-aggressive, the exigen
ales of his political ambition formed him betimes
into antagonisms, in which ho behaved with dig
nity. Paying a respectful compliment to the moral
nature of Mr. Goode, Mr. Pryor offered tile usual
resolutions of mourning and adjournment.
When we recollect that Mr. Goode was not, either
in the eiromnstanoes of life ash° found them or made
them, a remarkable man—such a one as so bold and
capable a speaker as Mr. Pryor could dojustide to
himself In eulogising; when we recollect that ho
had not to make himself, In the same sense, as
Rusk and Broderick bad to do—that he did not ac
complish any great living benefit, in the sunshine
of which his brethren now and in the future will
bask and bless his name; when wo know that nine
tyleine men out of a hundred are entitled to as
much public regard, as public regard goon—it must
be admitted that Pryor's tribute, in Its graceful
fullness and self-accumulating resources, was a
marked effort.
Mr. Percher Miles seconded the resolution, and
delivered a well-written and considered speech—
half in testimony of respect to the dead, and half
in depreciation of the applause which the so-oalied
,self-made men win from the orator. He paid a
tribute to the latter, but did not think that culti
vation was any bar' to a perfect patriotism ; nor
did he think it objectionable that men above temp.
Mon should be prominent in the public service.
Mr. Miles talked round the subject in an eloquent
and finished manner. The deceased was a mem
ber of the Episcopal Church, as his father was he
fora him, and a regular communicant of that church.
In society be was remarkable for vase; in fast, he
was an excellently well-bred man—a warm and
constant friend—a gentleman of the old regime.
Mr. Vallandigham made some just remarks
about the wholesomeness of the custom which they
were following to-day. It is just in honor of, the
dead, and reminds us of our own mortality., He
was not intimate with the deceased, but gave his
impressions of some of the salient points of Mr.
Goode's character. Ile was not a great man, but
neither was ho a demagogue or partisan. He pos
sessed an elevated political philosophy.
In the Senate, Mr. Clark of Now Hampshire,
spoke to Jefferson Davis' resolution touching
the protection of negro property, now and in
all time, in all the States and Territories of the
Union, new existing or hereafter to exist. Making
some allusion to tho remark credited to Senator
Toombs, that "he would read the roil-veil of his
slaves on Bunker Hill," the Georgian asked
the Senator from New Hampshire where he got
that report. New Hampshire had road it often,
but could not lay his finger on any special place.
Toombs declared that it had been contradicted for
more than three years, but it seemed to be the
policy of the other side to give ourrenoy to that for
which they could show no authority. Clark
begged the pardon of Georgia, and declared that
he had never soon the contradiction. Georgia re
plied that he ought not to make statements without
being provided with some foundation. In this con
nection he alluded to the New York Tribune, as
the general receptacle for falsehoods, whereon
Clark disclaimed that sheet as his authority in the
matter. EZZIC BICHAUDO.

Mrs. Raley, the mother of Copple, one o the
Harper's Ferry insurgents, who has esoapei to

to give up on a requisition from Governor Lather,
of Va., has addressed a letter of remonstrates to
the latter, dated from Springdale, lowa, in vhieb
oho asserts that Edwin Coppie Is clear in tht eyes
of the public, and yet he must be stranglet " to
gratify alevongeful feeling, so prevalent in fnutb

compares such conduct to the pursuit of San after

of the shepherd's boy of the Ring After

was never near Harper's Perry, and wa in no

him to receive that hoepltality at the haul of the
