IMPORT OF Box. JOHN winter, onAuziAr OF FUN
CONNISTaII ON TWA JUDICIARY, ON, PRIM
MOWS PROTIUM .OF MAHON 28, 1860.
The Committee on the Judiciary, to whom was
retorted the special message of Ow Prosident
thallAitad smog to, the jtouse 9 ! lippriumkA
alive., beg lanais to submit the folloning report :
On the bth day of Meroh last, Ron. Joni Co-
Venn a representative in Congress, from' the Mete
of Penurylvanis, admitted, and the Rouse of Re
presentatives adopted, the following retointions
" 'Resolved, That a committee of five members be ap
pointed by the Speaker for the purpose of invertagannt
whether the President of the United atates, or any other
officer of tile Government, has, by money, patronage,
or otherknproper means, sought to influenoe the action
of Congress, or any committee thereof, for or against
the passage of any law appertaining to the rights of any
finite or Territory; also to inquire into and investigate
whether any officer and officers of the Government
have, by combination or otherwise, prevented and de:
tested, or attempted to prevent or defeat, the ageoution
of any law or laws now upon theseatnte•books, and whe
ther' the President his 'failed or refused to compel the
execution of any law thereof ; that said committee shall
investigate and inquire into the abuses at the Chicago
and other post offices, and at the Philadelphia aud other
navy Tan% and into ant abuses in connection with the
public buildings and, other public worku of the' United
States, „
" And Risoludfuethse, That as the President, in hie
letter to the Pittsburg centenary celebration of the 16th
November, late, speaks of the employment of money to
carry eleetionelltind committee shall inquire into and
ascertain the amount so used in Pennsylvania, and any
other State or States ; in what district it Was expeeded,
and by whom and by whose authority Uwe, done, and
&Oil what source the money was derived, and to report
the tonnes of 'the parties implicated; and that -for the
purpose iron:aid; said committee shall have power to'
send for persons and papers, and report at any time."
The omega comes tie*a protest !walnut tide action
of the Home. The President complains that he has
been I , abue‘d,'! 'arid that the constitutional rights
ens iminnnities of theSiecutive have been vio•
rued in. his Perim. The materiel poiltione as.
sume3 in the communication are substantially ;DM
brased.in the 'following propodtions
1. That the House of Reprinentatives pommies
no power, under, the Constitution, except as an im
oeachbiy, body, to amuse, the President of the
United States, or any other ,offloer of, the Govern
ment, .
2. That the 'first-recited resolution is an &muss
tion of high crimes and misdemeanors against the
President, and that hie accuser has been consti
tuted one el his judges.
3. That the charge is too vaguoiand general.
4. That there is danger under such a precedent
of an aggrandisement offthe legislative at the ex
pense of,the executive and judicial departments.
In consideration of the high source from which
the manifesto proceeds, the committee prefer to
tionfine themselves to in examination of the postu
lates of the paper,' however obnoxious; to criticism
its general tone maybe on the score of take and
temper. Ent they Cannot restrain an expression
of their deep regret• that an 'decor who prides
idasself upon the fact " the people have
thought proper to invest him with the most honora
ble, responsible, and dignified office in the world,"
and who declares be feels" proudly consOlous there
is no public act of his (my) life which Will not bear
the strictest scrutiny," and that he defies "all in
iestigation; " should forget, amid the surroundings
oriole's, and power, and flattery, that he iithut the
servant of 'that same people, and that he should
shrink back in auger or terror from a simple inquiry
into his stewardship. This is the first time under the
Republio a Chief Executive has left a recorded ad
mission that he hes been made oblivion of the
origin and ephemeral character of his position by
the mollies of its enjoyment. To distinguish each
conduct by approbation would bo to sanction
kingly prerogative, sit — d to proclaim that rightfld
rule came by " the grace of God," and not from
the confidence of men. The nation, always cha
ritable in the interpretation of sots and motives, is
not prepared to overlook such a delinquenoy.
The President of the United Statee, under the
Constitition ' possesses neither privilege nor immu
nity beyond the humbleift citizen, mils less fa
vored in this respect than Senators and Repre
sentatives in Congrea.• Article 1, section 6, reads :
" They (the Senators and Representatives) shall, in
all oases except treason, felony, and breach of the
peace, be privileged from arrest during their at
tendance at the session of their respective houses,
and in going to end returning from the same." No
Raab. exemption is made in behalf of the Executive
or anyotber officer of Government. The conduct
of the is always subject to the itonstitM
Lionel supervision and judgMent of Congress

either branch of that body. He hi left, under the
law,..without shield or protection of any kind, ex

This is denied In emphatic tents, He 10 "co

And the executive or law-executing power must al
ways be inferior to the legislative or law'-making
power. The latter Is omnipotent within the
limits of the Cinstitation; the formir is' subject
not only to the Coiistitution, but to ' thi determina
tions of the latter also. To repeat the point : the
President is nit, in any respect, superior to the
Milton, merely bemuses he is bound to disohirge
more numerous duties ; and he is not coequal with
that branch of Government which helps to impose
and define those duties. The feet that he holds a
Shifted 'veto over the legislation of Congress cannot
effect the soundness of the views here briefly pre
sented: His `
claim to " legislative cape City," in
other words, to possess legislative power, will
scarcely be conceded in view of article 1, section 1,
of the Constitution, deelaring that "All legislative
oven; herein (therein) granted shall be vested in
a congress of- the United States, which shall eon
asst of a Senate and House of Representatives."
The President, it will be observed throughout
his message, - Massines that the resolution to which
he makes reference charges him with the commis.
don of - high crimes And misdemeanors. This was I
necessary to the argument be has advanced. It is
for such charges only the House has the power of
impeachment. The gravamen of his complaint is,
that the aeosuatione are of such a nature as, if
true, would subject him to an impeachment, and
that the House has proceeded to pass upon them,
or is moving to pais upon them, through a form of
proceeding not authorised by the Cs:institution:
Herein lies the fallacy, and that which, wierposed,
might operate as the deception of the plea. If this
were, in truth, a charge against the President,
calling for the form of trial prescribed by the Con
stitution, then the determinations of this House
might possibly be open to, animadversion, Un
fortunately, for the attempted defence of that
officer, there is no charge made of any grade
of offence calling for trial of- any kind. It is a
mere inquiry that is proposed. The language of
the resolution may befitted as the best proof. The
committee raised is "for the purpose of investi
gating whether the President of the United States,
or any other officer of the Government, has, by
money, patronage, or other improper means,
sought to Influence the action of Congress, or any
committee thereof," he,; also, "to inquire into and
investigate whethiir any officer and officers of the
GovernMent lave, -by combination ,or otherwise,
prevented end defeated,' or attempted to pre
vent-and defeat, the - execution of any law or
laws," he. ; and "whether the President has
failed or refused to compel the execution -of
any laws," itit. If no , criminality is alleged,
but, on the, contrary, an tnveettgation or in
entry, !done is , proposed, the question may be
asked, with anling force and emphasis, what
has the House to do with the law of impeachment?
The resolutions do not contemplate a judgment,
and therefore there can be no formal trial under
them. But, admit charges proper for impeachment
were made, would the Howse be, bound to submit
the matter to any particular committee, and allow
the accused a cross-examination, as the President
seems to suppose? By no means! The Constitution
presoribesino rules for the House, but it is left per
fectly, free to adopt its own: It may refer the'
charges to a standing committee, or a select coin.

That crimlial intent Was ineclied is the charge,
as it was to be presunted,"front an illegal or crimi
nal act.
The reaolutions of the House, on the contrary,
do not even imply censure, muoh. less . pass judg
ment. They propose an examination merely, tn.*

again*_ anrother member ofaoelety, to test, infor
mally either Dainty or respectability. 'And has
never been otietielied before that such & Privilege
—thstrif inquiry—does not pertain to every lin
rearkbeing ? The fact that such Investigation may
lead to the conclusion. that the party against
whom it is brought to bear is guilty of nefarlone
practices cannot affect the right; it is preliminary
to accusation, trial, and judgment. So here it can
not be made an objection to the , action of the
House that evidence may thus be found tainting
the omelet character of any or many officers of
Government. If it shall be found, in
executing the command of the resolutions,
that the President is open =to a direct
charge of high crimes or, misdemeanors, it
will but prove the wisdom , of the , proceedings.
Their, and not till then, may the party Fought to
be implicated demand the full hearing secured to
I him by the Constitution. As yet, he is subject to
the law of the Wizen. ; hereafter, possibly, he may
invoke the law of the officer.
It ,is proper to make this additional remark in
reference to the protest of 1834—that it was not
presented to the Senate airing the oonsideration
of', the resolution. It was not till after la formal
determination against him that the President re
monstrated. Here the interposition domes to pre•
vent all investigation.
The President esteems it "a violation of the
' principles of universal justice " that the mem
ber moving the resolution should have been ap.
'pointed one of the committee provided fdr - by
it. His ten years of service as a component
•of this body, of which he reminds us, not to
speak of his protracted. Senatorial oareer, .ought
to have enabled him to recall to mind the pre.
Indents of Congress in such oases. This is a new
and startling objection, condemning, MI it does,
in termer severe reproach, a practice in legisla
tion coextensive with our nationaLexiatenoe: Cer
tainly it has been the prietiee to appoint the mover
of a epeeist inquiry chairman of the committee
raised. Mr. Cameo, in his " Law and,Tractice,"
says: " On the occasion of the appointment to pre
pare articles of impeachment against Lord Min.-
vim', which had been ordered on the motion of
Mr. WEST saris, that gentleman was first appoint
ed one of the committee raised." A reason for
this course is doubtless to be found ill the presump
tion that the person propelling examination has
grounds to believe it important, and is, on that so
count, the best qualified to conduct the proceeding.
The President likewise disapproves, in terms of
severity, Of the phraseology and scope of the reso
lution. His expression is: "It is as vague, and
general as the English language !affords words in
which to make it." If it be true; as before urged,
that there is a general right to inquire into the
conduct of private citizens and public officers,
which may or may not look to accusation and trial,
then the remark sinks to a cavil. Under such Mr
aumstAnces it is not necessary to apprise the indi
vidual upon whom the inquiry beano, of either the
subject or object of inquiry. , Tab first oppor•
tunny for him to require notice is in the legal pro
ceeding which is to end in his acquittal or con.
damnation. Inuit would be thought of a 'rale of
law requiring even a prosecutor to define his charge,
and frame his indietment, without preliminary pro
ceedings or opportunity to inform himself as, to its
true character? Abate suspicion wcoild scarcely be
regarded a defensive prudence. And in the cue
of an officer controlling millions of patronage, and
an influence penetrating every city, town, and ham.
let of a vast country, it would be unsafe to assume,
informers and witnesses would volunteer against
him, especially as favorites and beneficiaries would
be most likely to possess the knowledge needed In
• the ascertainment of the truth. For Congress to
reach the conclusion to which the President would
lead them, would be to practically settle forever
that impeachments were obsolete, and that oxen.

Could there well be a more limitless field for ex
periment? It covers every foot of the country, if
not the earth, and lays open every sot and motive
of every citizen of the 'United States to analysis,
comment, and exposure. It is not deemed necessary
to extend remark, as it is sufficient for the argu
ment to propound the question: Where is to be
found the doctrine of jurisprudence, or justice, or
propriety, which subjects the every-day life of
every merchant, farmer, artisan, and laborer to
such a test, and protects their servant, the Presi
dent, from it?
Article 2 section 1 of the Constitution declares
"the executive power shall be vested in the Presi
dent of the United States of America." There is
but one executive head or fountain, and but one
executive responsibility, as there is but ono legisla
tive head, and one legislative responsibility. The
President admits the propriety of inquiry by the
Senate or the Eons* into the conduet of his subor
dinates, but denies that his liability is as great as
theirs. Tho accepted teachings of the • executive,
judicial, and legislative branches of the Govern
ment are the opposite of this.
President Jecxson, in his message of April 21,
1834, to the Senate, explanatory of his protest of
the 18th of April of the saute year, says : " Nor do
I claim the right in any manner to supervise or in
terfere with the persons intrusted with such pro
perty or treasure, (the public money and property
of the United States,) unless he be an Oilier whose
appointment is, under the Constitution and laws,
devolved upon the President alone, or in conjunc
tion with the Senate, and for whose conduct he is
constitutionally resposinble."
President Pour, of whose Cabinet Mr. Bti ,
°newel( was a member, during the first session of
the Twenty-ninth Congress, need this language :
"If the House of Representatives, as the grand
inquest of the nation, should at any time have rea
son to believe that there had been malversation in
office by an improper use or application of the public
money by a public officer, and should think proper
to institute an inquiry into the matter, all the
archives and papers of the Executive department,
public and private, would be subject to the inspec
tion and coNtrol of a committee of that body,"
4:c., The rulings of the Supreme Court have been
in the same direction. In the cues of Wilcox vs.
Jackson, and Williams vs United States, it was
decided that the law devolving particulaa duties
upon the President, by name, was fulfilled by the
discharge of those duties by his subordinates, on
the ground that these subordinates were imam-,
menu through whom he noted and spoke. It can
certainly net be necessary to transcribe what
appears throughout the Journals of Congress,
that each lionise has continually claimed and
exercised the necessary power of Inspecting, in
quiring lute, and supervising the different execu
tive departments and operations of the Govern
ment. If it be true that the close and intimate
connection insisted upon exists between the Presi
dent and others' appointed by him, and exercising
executive trusts, the reason is not manifest why
the management of the one should not be made as
plain and patent as the other. The most rational
and plausible °minden, at least, would be that the
pretentious tenets of the protest have been serf.
misty weakened, It not destroyed, by the force o
its' admissions.
The necessity for the foil and nnrestrloted ex
ercise of the power in question is so overruling as
to prevent its surrender.
1. With a view to impeachment.
2. For the purpose of legislation.
3. To protect the privileges of Congress.
The constitutionality,' the legality, and the au
thorized expediency of the iequiry proposed by the
'resolutions being, as is believed, amply vindicated,
no question remains in respect to it, except such as
might address itself to the disoretion of the House.
If, by the proceedings to remedy a rrdsohlef, a
greater mischief would be likely to follow, then A
well•regulated pruderies would indicate its aban
donment. The President In his protest suggests
snob a danger, and rests his resistance - upon H. It
is thus expressed: 4, The whole • proceeding
against him Justifies the fears of those wise
and great men , who, before the • Constitu
thin, was adopted by the States, apprehended that
'the tendency of the Goiernment was to the aggran•
fitment of the legislative at the expense of the
executive end Judicial departments." If, indeed,
fears of legislative aggrandisement should ever
have nested, the cause of those fears ,is left in
greit'obamritY. The history of 'Ship' Constiftftlon,•
through ail the stages of its foriluation s ,lts
tion by the , several States, and the conspicuous
differenese between the great political parties at
theittnisi, would seem to deny the exhitAnce of any
- sash - itpotediertslori. The strong\ sentinient of the
Desiocratkr party' through its'. whole struggle
with the Federalists, until the ideation of Jar-,
PERRON, was directly the .reverse of the President's
statement. In the Convention which formed the
Constitution, jealousy of the executive branch of
the' -proposed I Government was as great, even, as
,the kindred jealonsy _ against tho probable en
'eroikddstialts of :the • Federal.GOveritment nnen
the Independence and sovereignty of the se
parate States. "In that body it was even
proposed that the Executive should be removable
by the Legfalature,.Without impeaohment or con
kvlotion of high crimes and misdemeanors. As a
farther manifestation of that feeling ; it was pro.
,posed . that the Executive should be plural. Mun
roe and RANDOLPH urgently supported it as a
measure of protection against the aggressions of
the Chiel-Magistrate upon the rights of the
oo•ordinate branches of the Government. Mr.
'RANDOLPH (Governor of Virginia, and Attorney
- General under WASHINGTON), speaking upon this
subject, said: "The situation of this country is
peculiar; the people are taught aversion to mo
narchy; all the Constitutions are opposed to it:
Why cannot three execute'" The ineligibility of
the Exam:dive after onaterm was also insisted upoto
as a neoeselty to prevent usurpation. JavvERS or: de
telared his wish to be that the President should be
elected for seven years, and be ineligible afterwards.
Mr. RANDOLPH also made use of thisremarkable ex
' pression : "The Executives may appoint men de.
voted to them, and even bribe the Legislature."
.litatitre:s, after the adoption of . the article of the
' Constitution - relating fo the Executive, addressing
Governor LDWIS, need a still more striking ex
pression: "Yon nor I, my friend, may not live to
• see the day, but most assuredly it will come, when
every vital interest of the State will be merged in
the all-absorbing queition of who will be the next
President." So numerous are the proofs that
the 1, 11410 and groat men" of our earlier his
tory entertained forebodings -of the very opposite
'chars:dor to those which the President ascribes to
',them, that it is difficult to resist a disposition
to at tribute insincerity to the President, to aocom
-plish the purposes of his protest, The susploion on
,:the part of the people , has beeome so great that
.they are continually reducing executive power.
l ln many of the States the Governor has become but
'a mire Aid of pellee. This is not, however, to be
;attributed to legishiNve or judicial agency, but
ito the feet that chief executives so use their pa
'tronage as to proitoie a tendency to a oentrall
;satlou,nt.power dangerous to the liberties of the
'people. The world is but a great battle-field for
Owes; and if universal history teaches any les
'oon, it is this: "that power is always stealing
:from the many to the few ;" that exec:a
ttire heads of nations absorb popular rights;
end that all revolutions are on the part
•of the people, not to establish thrones, but to
regain that which has been wrested from them by
the throne. The citizen of the United States has
reason to fear that which every other nation has
suffered.
The, committee, entertaining the ,views herein
expressed, reoommend the adoption of the follow
ing resolution :
Aesolved, That the House dissents from the
dootrines of the special message of the President
of the United States of Mari& 28,1880 ; •
That the extent of Taiwer contemplated in the
adoption of the resolutions of inquiry of March 5,

constitutional duties devolved upon Congress;
That judielal determinations, the opinions of

exercise; and,
That ..** abandon It would leave the executive
t department of the Government without supervi•

HASTIIS'II IMPORT ON PRO PUBLIC PRINTING.
Mr. Easwites - report on the corruptions existing
under the present system of exerting the public
printing• will be considered in the House on Thurs
day next. I understand that Mr. GURLEY, of
Ohio, the chairman of the Committee on Printing,
intends at that time to Introduce a bill establish.
log a Government printing otline. Mr. Hamm,
who in • member of Mr. GZULLY'II committee, is
said to favor this bill, regarding it as the best
way of rerorming existing &buses. Thor who ad
vents it give three reasons for the establishment
of a National printing office : first, the work will
not cost over half what it has heretofore, as shown
by the testimony taken before the Committee on
Publio Expenditures ; second, it will prevent snob
bargaining and corruption ai the present mode of
doing the work encourages, as shown by the same
testimony; and third, the contract system has
been tried and found wanting.

REPORT ON THE PRESIDENT'S PROTEST.
My HICKNIAN, fro Pre s id ent mittee on the Judiciary.
made a report on the's protest, refuting the
positions of the latter. The report says, among other
things. that the committee cannot refrain from an ex
pression of their deep regret that en officer who prides
hims.lf upon the fact that the people hese thought pro
per to Invest him with the most honorable. responsible.
and dienified Office in the world, and who deolaree that
he feels pronely conscious that there in no public. sot or
hie life whioh wdl pot beer the strictest scrutiny. and
that he defies all investigation, foetid forget. amid
the surroundings of plate andpower, and flattery, teat
he is but the servant of that same people , and
that he should shrink back in anger or terror ftom a
simple inquiry into hie stewnrdshin This is the first
time under the Republic that a Chief Itlagistrate has
leR a recorded admission that he ham been made obli
vious of the origin and ephemeral character of hie pio
salon by the revelries of its enjoyment. To distin
guish such oonduot by approbation would be to sane
lion a kingly prerogative. and to proclaim that the
rightful rule came " By the grace of God." and not
from the cot Mimics of men. The nation, always chart
table in the interpretation of acts and motives. is
not prepared to overlook such a delinquency. and
the committee take the ground that the President.
under the Constitution. nominee neither privilege nor
immunity beyond the humblest citizen, and is lees fa
vored in this respect than the Senators and Reprenenta
lives in Congress.
Unfortunately, they say, for the attempted defence of
that officer, thane is no charge made of anti grade ofof
fence calling for a trial of any kind. It is a mere inqui
ry that is proposed. Mr. Covods's resolutions do not
contemplate a judgment, and therefore there can be no
formal trial under them. So numerous are the proofs
that the wise andgreat men of .our earlier history
entertained forebodings of the very opposite ohis- ,
ratter to those which the President ascribe, to
men. that it is difficult to resist a disposition to
attribute insincerity to the President to accomplish
thepurposes of his protest. Therworld if but a great
battle-field fornewer, and if universal history teaches
any lesson. it in this: that power is always stealing from
the many to the few ;that toe exeoutive heads of na
time absorb popalar rights, and that all revolutions are.
on the part of the people, not to establish thronee, but
to regain that which has been wrested from them by
the throne.. The citizens of the United Staten have
reason to fear that width every other nation has suf
fered.
The committee, entertaining the views heroin ea
r:lensed, recommend the adoption of the following rest
:liesc That the Rouse dissents from the doctrine
of the spatial mewing° of the President of the United
States, of March ISth, M. That the extent of power
contemplated in the adoption of the resolutions of in
quiry of March 6th 1860, is necessary to 'Mr proper dis
charge of the constitutional duties devolved upon Con
gress. That judietal determinations, the opinions of
former Presidents, and uniform usage, sanction its
exercise ; and that to abandon it would leave the exe
cutive department of the Government without 'teem
dion er responsihility. and would b. likely to lead to a
concentration of power in the hand of this President,
dangeroua to the rights of a free people.
THE MINORITY:REPORT.
Mr. ROUST° of Alabama, mild Mr. Taylor, of
Louisiana, and himself, were the annority of the Judi
ciary Committee, but, for want of time, they had not

THE BOULEVARDS OP BlioAD STREET.--A
call for a meeting of the owners of lots on Routh Broad
street will be found on another pain, in reference to
taking active measures for the improvement of that
beautiful portion of oar city, with fashionable private
residences. This ie an' ireportant move, and one in
which the credit and character of that part of the city is
greatly interested, and should be followed up with spirit
and energy. It has been a standing reproach upon the
wealthy owners of that magnificent avenue far some
half dozen years. that the great obieot for which the
Boulevards were originally designed and created has
never been fully earned out long ere this. Possessing.
as it doe., advantages that cannot be surpassed in this
or any other city. as to its good flees of soil for building
purposes, its health (illness of atmosphere for residences
and beauty of location: and surpassing any other vacant
gentian as to its mar proximity to the buskers centre of
the city, it is not strange that the hundred's of thou
sands of the travelling world. 'who pass only thin carton
of the city. no attractive in itself, and located within five
9 . r six minutes ride, or ten or twelve minutes walk, from
Chestnut and Market streets, with ao little evidences of
improvement, should nail in question the statements so
Mien made by our nubile journals as to the growth and
increase of our city being equal to that of yew York or
any other city in the world, The passenger railroads
have established rapid fanility for reaching this pert of
the city ma few minutes time, from leaving the bonne s
centre. The City Councils have passed an aparopriation
to Improve theeparadoground.:and convert It into & bean
tiful park, so that this long-neglected section can vie
with any other in the metropolis for the_treautt of its
surroundings. The terminus of the great Pennsylvania
Central Road passes along the linear the Baltimore Road
to the Delaware front. The new brides to be built over
the Schuylkill at the Arsenal and Penrose's Perm will
open an avenue through which %hailed agricultural ; -
ducts of Delaware 'lonely 'win peas to the city. directl

along Broad street. Every indication points to a rapid
improvement of south Broad street.
STEAM ENGINE rpm CALITORNLi.--The
Pennsylvania Engine Company, of San Francisco,
California, have instructed a committee of Philadelphia
firemen to build a steam fire engine for use is San
Francisco. They desire a Philadelphid.built machine,

a visit to the splendid new waren:mu of Messrs. FL /1,
A. A. Wright, at 624 Chestnut street. This house he
Wen in existence well nob a gunfer of a <MOM. and
now ooeupies a posit* in the department of trade it
represents (Wholesale Fancy Geode) unrivalled to tkla
city, and hardly surpassed in this country. Their former
quarters, on North Fourth street. hare tong enjoyed a
wide reputation fur the extent and completeness of thus
stock, which embusees the greet/tat imaginable variety
of fancy arVales Ruch as perfumery, extracts, inkstands•
elegant varieties of essence battles, desks, brushes,
watchholders, papier macho. India rubber, and plaster.
of Paris goods, all kind, of toilet articles. meereh•nm
pipes and cigar holders, oils and colognes, besides a
large and complete line ofsurgical instruments. Their re..
movel now to one or the most capacious sad notivsniect,
ly-fitted up storehouses in the city, in its very business
heart, cannot but give still sreatcr importune to their
house as an absolute mercantile necessity.
The main room of their new edifice is PO feet deep.
and is fitted up throughout with exquisite taste, the
goods being so arranged on the counters and in the side
cases as to present a very striking appearance, and af
ford buyers an opportunity of making their seleermuir,
by tumid., with the steatestfaollitr. Theumter rooms.
en the second floor of the building, are manly devoted
to their 'waited branch. In them may be found all
kinds of drugs ists' goods. In fart, the Messrs. Wright
are what in England are called druggists' mindrsmart
adm of merchants whose trade embraces everything •
d the druggist's line, except the drags. The third and
fourth stories are also crowded with goods in pisolutgee.
In the cellar, we shon'd think the bottles of perfumery
is packages amounted to millions, all of which neither
o f their own importation or manufacture. Here 101/0
a novelty has been introduced to facilitate the facet,-
lion and shipment of goods, in • railroad extending the
whole length of the store. The hoisting agParatul to

business, haying at the - present time some filly opera
