Jittsbnrgl ©ajette. PITTSBURGH: WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEB. 8,185 a ear official paper op tub cnr.-fi* News of the City and Neighborhood. Thu Cestbal Pbeseyterias Church.—A new church with the abovo designation is to be at ouce organized to worship in the here* tofore known as the Fifth Presbyterian Church of this city. The Presbytery, under whose jurisdiction it falls, has appointed Dr. Jacobus to be pastor there for the ensuing year, and, as we are informed, the church will be regularly and thoroughly organized during the present week. When this shall havo been effected, ser vices will occur regularlyeach Sabbath morning and evening. “*, 'For tho. last two Sabbaths, they being the firet iu which the newly appointed pastor has officia ted, the church has been crowded. The build ing is situated iu a populous portton of the city, and forms, as it were tho nucleus of the church edifices of the city. Immediately around it, or ai least in thftt same ward, we believe there are no less than 27 houses of worship of all denom inations. The entrance, and the only entrance to the Central Church is from Smilhfield street. The entrance to, tho main bodyiof the church, after having asceodcd a flight of stairs, is by a stogie door. The reason why we refer to this more particularly L«, because wo thought on Sunday, after service, when the large congre gation were slowly winding their jray out, how terrible a thing afire, or even a false alarm of fire might bo there. j Wo trust tho above remark will be considered by nobody os conjing from aoy other feeling nor as moved by any other motive than the real ono which has prompted it:—we mfian what we havo said as a hint to the preventive measure which is necessary to render the church entire ly comfortable. Tho doors should be widened or additional ones put In so that the house might bo emptied from all the aisles at once. We oxpect - and hope that the new church may be built up strong and united under the pasto rate of Dr. Jacobus. Tub Scott Leqioh, met in the Armory of the Jnckrou Independent Blues, Smilhfield street, Monday evening, for the purpose of further per fecting their organization. The meeting was largely attended. After the disposition of some preliminary business; on motion of F. H. Cool ley, it was resolved to form a military organiza tion, to be composed exclusively of persona who have performed military service in defense of the United States. The meeting then proceeded to the election of officers, withrthe following re sult: « Captain—Alexander Ilays. Lieutenants—First: Robert Anderson; Sec ond : JaSnt9~C. Hull. * Capt. Hays w&s lhe first Pennsylvanian wound ed in the Mexican war—in the battle of Palo Al to, under Genera!

Robert Anderson was a member of the Du quesne Grays, in Mexico. He loft as a private, and. returned, after peace had been declared, Second Lieutenant, to which post he had been elected during tho service. Jas. C. Hull left for Mexico, when quite a youth, in the ranks of the Jackson Independent Blues, Ue was promoted to a sergeantship during the servico. ITo is an exemplary man, in every respect, and is highly respected by a large num ber of acquaintances. The officers elect are empowered to appoint non-com missioned officers. — Dispatch. ConRT or, Oxer & Tkrmikxr.— The cose of Lutz came up yesterday in this Coort, on the motion for anew trial. Lutz was brought into Court at 10 o’clock. Judge McClure reviewed -the grounds of ihetuotion at great length. The principal objecliou taken to the bill of indict ment, by the counsel for tho defence, was that the ..wjjfds, “of which mortal wound,” should have been repeated, immediately preceding “tho said Richard O'Leary did languish," &c. Th.' Judge showed that the objection was merely technical, and overruled tbo motion. Then ho told John Lull to stand up, and hav ing asked him whether or not be had aught to to say why the sentence uf the law ebould not be passed upon him, and having received a negative answer from lb© prisoner Judge McC. proceeded to perform the solemn and painful duly of pro nouncing sentence of death-upon ihivwayward man r altcr whtch he was remanded to his cell. Thus ends another of those fearfal dramas of which our Court has beeo the stage for the past year. Arc there no lessons in tire proofs -here given that the sword of justice is not borne in vain, to those who still persist in the ways of folly which lead down to ignominious death?'. Eeecnov. —The Annual Election of the Pitts burgh Life, Fire and Marine Insurance Co. was hebl al their rooms yesterday, when tho follow ing gentlemen were elected Directors for the '* eurrehfc£sw : Robert Galway.Marshall.

Cunc of Deafness.—Mrs. Mansfield's treat ment of Deafness rests npon a very attractive and promising basis—that of removing the muses of ‘disordered action, especially in the nerves and drum of the ear, by gradually re storing a natural circulation to the organs of hearing, so that a healthy local condition is in duced ; and as the thickening or numbness of the drum Ls lessened or removed by her reme dies, noises in the head are cbeoked as the nerves of the iolernal ear recover their proper actlon.-fo-that all the organa of hearing gradu ally regain their natural condition, and the deaf ness is then substantially cured if there is no naturaldiaorganization. Mm M. has had on extended saccesa m this method of cure, having thoroughly restored hearing.innmny instances which had often been treated by others without benefit, and iix some ciscs which had been treated by tbe'Brst-aurists io Europe. Consultations at her rooms at the MnnobgahcU House are free. Lecture of Mr. BaADFonn.—Rev. A. B. Bradford, of New Costle, will lecture In. Excel «ior Hall, Allegheny City, on Thursday (tomor ow) Evening, on “The Philosophy of Reform.” The effort is in its ohject purely benevolent, the proceeds to be applied in behalf of the Ladies Benevolent Society of that city, than which no thing more practically benevolent offers. Mr. Bradford’s antecedents, as a man and os a speak, er, are 100 well known to demand at our bands any extended notice. He has ever been the elo* aneot defender of liberty to all men; he believes that the yoke of ibe oppressor should be brokon; h.- is a minister of the gospel of frecdoiß, which liu)U> upon all men as free in the truth. He is in his style, eloquent, clear and impressive, fie always treats bfcrsubjects with candor and fol lows iho truth wherever it may lead, regardless or consequences. Wo have confidence that such a house will welcome him as his great talents and merits deserve.

Beoj. P. Bakewcll, Esq., tbeu read the annual report, one of the most interesting papers it was ever our good fortune to listen to. We would make extracts from it at this time hut for lack ofppace. The principal portions of it shall appear at another time. An address was then delivered by Rev. Prof. Barrows, abounding Id good, sound, practical sense and advice to youngmen. The nucleus of bis remarks was: Always remember that you are Christians. After the singing of the G7th Psalm, an address was pronounced by Rev. C. P. Krautb, of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, so rich iu suggestion, and illustration, so elo quent, so practical that we would be doing U and him the greatest injustice if we published only such notes as we have of it. The idea was one that is suggested to him daily by a sigu on a baOding be is accustomed to pass—“ Men Wasted;” that is the want of. the age; Men, sonnd, practical, learned, vigorous, Christian men, who are able and willing to do the Lord’s work. After Mr. K. had concluded, the annual col lection was taken up and the meeting dispersed with a Benediction by the Rev. Henry Kendall.

Miss Heron, after a fall day's rest, will appear iu her great character to-night. x At the Gaieties, Coyne still continues to draw crowded houses. Iron Citt Bank.—We were fortunate enough to become the holder of some of the bills of this Bank yesterday. The plate is a very elaborate one, by Toppaa, Carpeuter & Co., Philadelphia, and seems as though it would puzzle the most expert imitators to produce a fac simile. The Bank has issued, as yet, but $4,876 iu (ires and tens. We deem it unnecessary to state that we take Iron City Bank paper at par. Tuk Weather.—The wind yesterday coo spired with the elements in general tn remind as that this is indeed winter weather. Tho walkiog was horrible, the 6ky overcast and wild, aod the town noisy with the clapping of doors and window blinds.

Senate —A message was revived from the Pres ident tronsmitiog tho Lccumptou Constitution which was read. It quotes the severe language of Gov. Walker, declaring that the city of Lawrence is tbo hot-bod of Abolitionism, end says that tho dividing line in Kansas is not Iveiwecn two political parties as in other pieces, but it is between those who age loyal to the government and tbu*e who are oring to destroy it by force ut usurpation. It says that Kansas is at this day as much a Slave State as Georgia and Soath Carolina, and recommends the admission of Kansas under this Constitution as the only means of restoring tranquility ; the people con amend it hereafter as they think proper. Mr. Bigler moved the printing of the message, and that it be referred to the Committee on Territo ries. Mr. Trumbull was unwilling to let the matter pass from the consideration of the Senate without re mark. 110 looked upon it os a perverted and incor rect history from tho beginning to the end of the difficulties iu Kansas. Even from the imperfect bearing of it as rend by the rlerk it-wai inconsistent with itself. The President recommends that Kansas’ ho admitted under tbo Lecompton Constitution on tbo ground even that it is in violation of tho will of the people. Tho legislature which convenes under that Constitution may provide at once for its change, and yet tbo author of tha t declaration tells you that the election to determine whether the people would haro the Constitution or not is a nullity. He takes the ground that tho people have no authority to pre vent it from going into force, and yet havo the power after it goes into force to change i«. Upon what principle can such doctrines be maintained. There was no usurpation on Kansas than that commiUod by tho President and his army In that territory; and the army bos been employed there without authority of law, and he quoted from tbo record to prove tho assertion. Ho commented on the Nebraska Bill, arguing that tho administration of Kansas under tbo Le i compton Constitution would bo a violalion of the principle of that act according to a fair construction of Its provisions. Mr. Douglas said be .should reserve any reply whiah he might havo to make to what bin colleague had sold relative to the Nebraska Hilt until a future occasion. Mr. Toombs said but for tbe character of tiio as saults which Mr. Trumbull had thought proper to make on tbo message, he would havo been content to let It go to the country and vindicate Itself, but such had been tbe nature of that assault that be felt It to bo Ms duty to take this opportunity, to ex press hb hurty co-operation In that policy the Pres ident has indicated, and at tbe same time ‘express his gratification at tho signal ability and power with which tho grea( princlplo lying at tbe bottom of that policy had been presented to the American peo plo by the Chief Magistrate, who recommends tho admission of Kansas under tho Constitution just transmitted. Semite adjourned. House—Mr. Harris, ut Illinois, gave notice that he would to-morrow move to take up tbe contested election case of VaUsndingham against Campbell, in order to dispose of tbe preliminary question in volved. The Houso resumed the consideration of tho Print ing Deficiency Bill. The Hoose spent several hours in tho consiJcru - tion of the Printing Deficiency Bill whioh appropri ated $790,000, and after amending, rejected it by f»7 against 1.15. Tho President's mcSsago was received and read, when Mr. Stephens moved that it be printed and re ferred to the Committee on Territories, and os tbo hour was late, 4 o’clock, he thought that thoy had belter adjourn. * Mr. Harris, of lllimd«. hoped tti:it (hr If.me would not adjourn. Mos.tk. tirow and. Ilugho.-* struvrgluJ f-r iho floor which was accorded to tbe latter. Mr. Harris wished to submit another motion. It was proper that it should Ixj made. A voice—lt is for a Select Committee to consider the Message. Mr. Hughes refused to yield the floor. Mr. Harris—Very woll; all will have n show at this thing in a very short time. Mr. Grow said if Mr. Hughes did not want to ipeak now, let him yield tho floor that others might express their views. Much confusion and exciUmcot prevailed. Mrv Washbume, of Maine—i want to say a few words now myself. Mr. Hughes yielded tho floor t<> Mr. Letcher, who mode a motion to adjonrn which was not carried, tho vote being 105 against 109, the friends of the Lecompton Constitution generally voting in the af firmative. Mr. Harris again made an iuellectual appeal to Mr. Hughes to yield the floor There were impatient rrios for the reading of Mr. Harris' proposition. Mr. lluge.H wanted Mr. Harris to indientu what it Mr. llsrn- • ••mplumcd yf * want »f ■•jiiiU—.v on tho part of tbo gentleman (ruin Indians. Mr. Mcljuecn objected to Mr. Hugho.-yielding the floor and nus called t<> order from (he nppoMlc .-side uf Ibe ball. Mr. Hughes submitted a resolution proposing to rubmil tbe message to a select Committee of Id, to report on propriety and expediency ot tho admission of Kansas into the Union, with power lo report by bill or otherwise. Mr. li..cuck moved an adjournment, which was negatived by 7 majority. - ein 1 1 u, -- *4— floor for a motion for a call of tbo House. Cries for HugbJs to K . with his remark*. Mr. Hughes owed it to hlmscll loptmcw* \, right. An adjournment was a matter of indifference Ut him as he did not wish to detain the Houseegoinjt their will. As to the request of tbe gentleman from Illinois to y eld tbe floor, be simply asked, first, to be informed' rhat was the nature of his proposition to snob u rc* ueti. Ho received o« answer, aod tear ing that be i lisunderelood the gentleman he took the 'trouble to gJlo hi* r«ul end there tonnd hi* under standing to pc correct. Mr. Harris replied that be did u«»t tle«iie the gen tleman's approbation of the prop.niti>,n ho would offer. Mr. Hughes—Wilt you iufurm uje nb courtesy of you. Mr. Ilaghes—Aud I ark u.mo ol you. Calls nf order and touch excitement prevatlod.- TLe Spanker demanded of the gentlemen standing to resume their seats, and knocked with his hammer till they did io. Mr. Hughes modified bb resolution *o ns simply to refer thQ message t<» n select Committee of 13, without ins ructions, if such Committee be appoint ed he did dot wish to l* its Chairman. He asked to print, Without speaking, some remarks m refer ence to sotao affair* in bis own Piute. Mr. Haris objected. . Mr. Hughes—l hope hereafter to hear nothing mere about courtesy after this objection of my col- He to speak of frauds io tho ballot box iu LB6A by ib'e same Republican party which pro fesses an much love for tho Union ; the sacred rights | of tho pn,.ple and the freodom of elections. Sfr. Grow called him to order. The frauds in In diana bad nothing to do with tbb question, bnt tho trauds in Kansas hare. The Speaker ?ald that Mr. Hughes bed not pro ceeded for .enough to enable him to deride whother his remarks were irrelevant. Mr. Humphrey Marshall wn* satisfied that no good c.utd grow out of these proceedings, and appealed to the Hooso to adjourn. A Mr. Grocabcck hoped that Mr. Hughes would not bo interrupted but would be allowed to bare his full Mr. Hughes sp»ke of the mischievous fanauciam which incites to anarchy, and of Oeo. Jiui Lane as having been prescot in the Indiana Legislature to direct the Rcpoblicans what coarse they should pur sue in practising thoir frauds, similar to those enact ed in Kansas by the same party, which was composed -of renegade Democrat*, Abolitionists, Maine. Law fanatics, political preachers and strong minded women. He most decline to march in that army or follow the tribe. After passing a brief eulogy on the President aod his Cabinet, he referred to tho Kansas Nebraska act in justiffcalinn of the course of the Lc compton Convention and fully endorsed the position* assumed in tho message. Mr. Harris, of Illinois, offered a resolution that tho messago of the President and the Locompton Constitution U referred to a select Committee of 13, to bo appointed by the Rpcaker, to enquire into all _tbo facts conneetod with tho said Constitution and laws, if any, under which the Convention was held. Pending tho proposition the House adjourned.

Should these be agreed o» Balt Lake City is to become a grand Mili tary Stalioo or depot for western troops. Tbo Ad ministration confidently expect that Kansas will he admitted as a State with the Lecomptoo Constitution and that there will be !«>•« opposition from the North ern and Western Democratic mombers than is gen erally supposed. Ureat calculations are made on the consolidated veto of the South. It is understood that the Leeotnpton Constitution will bo referred to the Territorial Committee in tho Senate and immediately reported upon; with the bill for the admission of Min eaota attached, and that they wUI bepassod together. Similar arrangements have been made in the House. An exciting lime is anticipated in both houses to di lay. The Tribone Correspondent says, that the statement in the Herald about tbeTarifflorestigating CommU ley, U a mere fabrication made up from conjectures und floating rumors; there Is nothing in Mr. Stone a testimony which implicates Mr. Banks in the least. The Herald's $7OOO in the old aflalr of the $7OO loan magnified ten fold.

Wasbisotom Crrr, Fob. 2. —Tho following is the concluding portion of the President’s Message Every patriot in tbe country Hhd Indulged in the hope {hat the Kansas-Nebraska Act would put a final end to the slavery agitation bt least in Congress, which had, for more than 20 years, convulsed the country and endangered tbo Union. This act in volved great and fundamental and, if fairly carried into effect, will Eettlo the quoation.— Should (he agitation be again revived; should the people of fhe sister States be again estrayed from each other with more than their former bitterness, this will arise from a cause so far as tho luteresi of Kansas is concerned, more trilling end insignificant than has ever stirred the elements of a great people into commotion.
