• .• - WASIIINUTON, thirDb 30, 11360
The, effect of the President's pitiable protest to
the House of Representatives, yesterday afternoon,
may be seen in the extraordinary iota upon its re
foresee to the Committee on the ;Tadiolary, of
which Hon. John Hickman is the chairman. A
majority of 36, In a body almost : . equally divided
between the two great mattes, confiding a grave
state paper to a committee headed by one of the
ablest, and most gifted and fearless. members 'of
the general Opposition,is a remarkable commentary
upon,the argument and exhortation of the first officer
in the Republic. When it was read, it was received
with mingledlindignation and scorn. Those who
'attempted to'defend it seemed to feel as if they
bad undertaken a hopeless task. Mr. Booock, in
genious and able as he usually is, dwindled into
the special pleader, and lost the statesman in the
partisan. A masterly and overwhelming reply
may be expected from Mr. Biokman is a few days.
He will analyse the absurdities and expose the in
oonsistenoies of the protest, and will thus famish
another reason to the many on record that the Pre
sident has lost all claim to public consideration or
oonfidenee.
There earl be no doubt that the immediate cause
of this protest is' the scathing report of the Hon.
'John' B. Hasitle. Mr. Covdde's committee have
not yet taken steps to carry out the instructions of
the resolutione -under which they wore appointed.
It was Mr. Hearin that presented the proofs of the
daplieity and recklessness of the President 'in his'
Management of party politics, and in , the pm!•
ohms example he has set by the lavish expenditure
of the .public money. And his was the goad that
'haskiansed the President to ery oat. ' '
I have bed several conversations with Mr. Col
fax, the chairmen of the Committee on Post Offices
and Post Roads in the Educe, and And him errieed:
ingly Well disposed towards the purchase of the
Bailey and Levy property, and the sale of the old
Pennsylvania Bank building, in order that a new
post aloe may be erected on Chestnut street, near
the Custom Hones ; but I do not think that Con
gress will pass the requisite law during its pre
sent erasion: Mr. O'Brien is making every effort
to induce the committee to report a satisfactory
bill, and he informed me yesterday that he had
strong hoped of moms; but the temper of Con
greet, and the excitement growing out of other
questions, wilt, I think, 'prevent favorable action
upon this Important subject.
The President became exceedingly angry a few
days ageon taking up the New York Herald to
find Raskin's report in full in hie favorite organ,
and I have no doubt that he has written another
'affectionate epistle to his "Dear Bennett." As if
to add to his disappointment, the Herald is grain
ally shaping its course in favor of Judge Douglas,
and gradually intimating its intention to shake off
iteOld Man tot the Sea. "The little squad" of ra
bele, so laughed at and denounced in that newspa
per a few months ago, the feeble and disappointed
Haskin,Biokthan, Schwartz, Reynolds, and others,
haie grown into a power at hut, and even The
Press Is placed in the light of being a great organ
of publio opinion. These are ominous signs of the
times.
lam happy to say that the suggestion thrown
oat inlhis correspondence, more than a week ago,
calling upon the leading Democratic politicians of
Pennsylvania to come to Washington, for the per
pose of assisting in the passage of the bill report
ed from the Committee of Ways and Means for
the modidoation of the present revenue law', in
order to secure satisfactory protection to the great
interests of Pennsylvania, has met with a hearty
response from all quarters, and I trust that those
who are sincere in their wishes that this subject
may be disposed of at the present session will
see that my suggestion is carried out. This is
the only mode left to WO the earnestness of these
gentlemen on, the tariff question. If they could
spend a single week in Washington they would
decide the fate of our great interests for years to
tom. I know that Senator Toombs, of Geer
when called upon by a distinguished
Pennsylvanian, on Friday last, manifested
every disposition to hear his ease, and ex
pressed every willingness to assist Pennsylva._
nia in this greet work, consistent with his record
end his sense of public duty. And, moreover, lam
safe in saying that the Senate is not committed be
yond peradventure against the great remedy so
much needed by your State. I believe, that
if an effort were made upon the Southern
Democrats in that body, they may be induced to
yield everything we ask. Do not let us thei throw
the' responsibility upon the Senate without canvas
sing It, and giving it the chance to meet the
lease. ' If- our Pennsylvania politicians who

On the 27th, a bill for the increase of the pay of
the OEOOIII of the navy passed . the Senate by a
unanimous vote. This bill, which does tardy fee•
lire to the gallant blue Jackets of the popular arm
of our national forces, gives them barely the mend
of supporting the appearance which their rank
obliges them to assume, and it is hoped when the
matter is taken up, by the House that its passage
will bo as free from opposition as it has proved in
the Senate.
The noble gentlemen, whose pay it is intended
to Imre:oe, have claims on the country whtoh:en•
title them to the most favorable consideration of
Congress, and what is asked by this bill is only
simple jostles.
In every land, on every sea, the officers of our
little navy have ever upheld the glory of their
country, and the united voice of the whole people
will hall with delight the small increase of their
pay which this measure proposes.
Neither the pestilential vapors of the African
coast nor the terrors of an Antic winter have>been
too much for the navy of the United States, and
wherever science or humanity, or the Item strug
gle of war, has demanded the exercise of their
ability and the evidence of their patriotism, they
have always been found equal to the occasion.

nr The leading men in the oyster business in
Baltimore assert that there are more oysters in
Chesapeake bay at present than there were twenty
yeareago, notwithstanding millions upon millions of
bushels have been removed.. They say that dredging

greater extent; and Is the only way by which the
quantity in the long term can be inereamd. Taking

that it destroys fewer oysters, but it does not spread
the supply, and ultimately exhausts the steak.

another drunken fellow climbed into the saddle.
