Iropealof the-exam tax, 11.111/ INClkhotice 'that he would calbit up to-lnorrod. ' Mr. PATTMISON, N. E., from the Committee. vo lletrenchmeat, reported a rennitition that contracta for stO.ionery ant other supplies for the Executive Departments shall, in the present unset tled condition of the country, be Mach.. , fok a period no longer - them one - year Adopted. Mr. NOYES Introdtreea trbillto amend the various oats establishing it navy de partment, - .Deferred to the Naval Com: ante:. - On motion of Mr. SIII:DMAN the Senate took up -the bill in reee.,,, rd to the proceeds of captured and nbanuoned T e qucatlces aa.S.islated to beim Mr. Edmunds' amendmeet. I Mn EDMUNDS stated that since yes , terdny ho had learned the Secretary of the Treasury had been instructed to ep= point treasury agents sander at. . of Congress. Mr. Omni had • con sulted the Solicitor in ,to whether ho had authority to decide which was captured. Mid which abandoned property. The question.' had arisen whether the President or Secretary had authority to submit - the question to h commissioner, and particularly What had been called the Savannah Cotton cases. The Attorney General had decided ad versely. The Seeretary,of the Treasury, ho believed, bad given op no canon In a manner conflicting with that opinion. He read a letter from the Attorney Gen eral, dated April 24th, 1166, expressing the opinion that certain-property Was. .unjtatillably aimed, not havingbeen the FeTter t iz o o r ne th rs e t ( erthel n ec le r B et tu fry • Ol Y t h t i ; Treasury tram personal blame. . Mr. FESSEIi DEN said this matter was doubtless mused by such a misapprehen sion aggravatedby diasatisfleticialmanta Of such property. few had- arty concep tion ol the trouble and difficult). entailed on the Treasury Department - by large amounts of property, scattered all over the country, which had been seized. :The law did not mean that the gross receipts of captured property should be paid into the Treasury. Secretary" Chase had established the principle of paying the expenses of captured property out of the proceeds.' Would it be proper that -when certain property Was unjus= seized it shout,' be sold and the p paid into the Treasury? Mr. Chase bad decided it would be fleet subject to proof. The sixth section made it the duty of Gip army arid navy receiving abandoned property to turnit over to the govern ment. They bad been in the habit of Seining property that hid - never been abandoned, and. the Secretary •of the Treasury had properly allowed proof of ownership. In act of 1164 It was provid cd that the proceeds, after deducting ex penses, were to bo' paid inks the Treas ury, under which law he had- assumed control of that tlepartment. He had doubtless erred in endorsing the opinion referred to of the Solicitor Of the .I'reu nry, without suMMnatly considering the difference thetvreen. eapteired and &Mo. , donod property, but; an investigation would show that under his administra tion, and probably under that of the other Secretary, in property subject to seizure they had exercised the most scrupulous care, so great care, indeed; that a part of The office was 'Set aside for that haveselgatioe..' 'pedant - gentleman detailed to pro nounce ,on the legal sutrect of the cane. Ili addition to that be himself hail always examined cases after a decision by this Bureau, and hail sometimes set it aside. Mr. McCulloch had simply followed the Mune marked °orby himself and predecessor, and felt 'called to take a share of the blame, if there were any. If the bill ehould pan with the amendment, though the - Trea sury Department had no objection, it would operate unjustly to partieshaving just claims against such property, de priving them of their remedy. - Mr. SHERNIAIN said when he claimed yesterday that the Secretary of the Treas ury had conformed his action to the opin ion of the Solicitor, the Senator from Ill inois (Mr. Trumbull,) had taken lam by surprise in denying the fact. He reed a I statement from the Secretary's report, I showing that the fact was as he had stat ed. He explained that the Committee on Finance had defined the action on the bill on the representation of thq Secretary of the Treasury In regard to proceeds of the thirty-four million dol lars worth of property. Doubtless it was not proper for th;tmoney to remain without being carried into the Treasury. If the Senator from Maine thought more time should be allowed, he had no ; ob jections. . . . Mr. FTSSENDENT said the onlirca• son for delay was that It waa only the net proceeds that were to be paid Into the ireastfry, and niers were certain claims to be testerL. The morning hour haring expired, Mr. JOHNSON roso to spent. on Mr. Drake's resolution restive to the Pres ident's message • - Mr. TRUMBULL desiring to spook On Um pending bill, opostponn motion of Mr. SHERMAN' it waspostponed till to morrow. Mr. DRAKE rose to a petuonal ex planation in regard to an attack upon him by the Nations:4 Intelligencer and the New York Troth:, bossed upon a cor respondence In the Cincinnati Comma.. fira, under the nom de plume of "Mock:. The charge wan that he (Mr. Drake) h . voted in the Legislature of Missouri, in 18541 and 'us, that negroes in his State should be put pp by the Sheriffs at pub lic auction. It wouldhe unjust to him self and his State did ho nut pronounce the statement totally false. In August, 1850, ho was elected to that Assembl„ and took his seat, not having previously been a member. 'The previous winter the House passed such a9hill, and after he took his seat a substitute was offered to the same effect. An amendment was offered, providing that negroes or mulat toes settling in the State Niece 1847, should bb reduced to slavery. He had voted for It. The operetta of it would have been confined to a . dbiall number. If the bill should have become a law, every negro in the State woe to be enslaved, but ire had voted against the bill on italinal passage. The statement, therefore, woe false and unfounded.

D. 1809, to A. D. 1867. By David A. lifelinight, A. M., Secretary of School No. I.!' The' pam phlet gives, evidence of extensive am labnriouggirommrch„ but whilst it claims to be mu mere reliable tßan any that hard gone before lb it has fallen Into mistakes. Speaking of the First Pres byterian Church of this City It hays, "And yet that log house, only slimy seven years ago, WWI the sole church is . all this vicinity; that congregation was' the one single congregation in Pitts burgh I" Tins is not historically correct, as will appear from the following extract taken from en Issue:of the Pittsburgh Cl(mmerelat 'Jo arnaf,..of October -or No-1 vember, 1519: 1 1 "Dom, on Thunulay Morning. the October, at 41 o'clock, at his residence in this ci ; ty, the Rev.

This extract shows that sixty-seven y miaow, there was another Presbyterian cungremitlon in this city. "The error %TAO evidently the result of the incom plete re careless mode." IWe may add that the First Reformed Presbyteiian cmgregation has only had two pastors. The present. pastor, Rev. John Douglas, D. D., was called to take charge of it a few months -after the la- Merited death of Dr. Black, and hasbeen Ministering to It for a period of about eighteen years. Yours truly, MU= 1= EDlToll4Gszarrs: We hadlithe ?lose ure of a trip to Butler on the 10th inst. to attend the dedication of an Orphan Home. Overlooking the town there. islands tin lime to splendid reiddennsi some time ago owned hy Gen. McCall, - which, together with thirty acres of ground surrounding It, ins been pur chased for the purpose. We think it ad mirably adapted for its ins. It bears the name of the St. Paul's Orphan Home of the Reformed Church. Several goo- Omen and congregations - In this city have already subscribed and contributed Most liberally toward it• others we doubt not will join In its support. It is to be Managed In the true spirit of christian Charity. All orphans, those of soldiers included. are to Lind Its doors open and its advantages at command. The dedicatory services on tho occasion were isandeeted by. Rev. G. B. Russell, of the General Orphan Beardot the Church. Addreces were mad, by Rev. T. J. Barkley, of Greenaburg, and Rev. F. K. Levan, of Westmoreland College, Mt. Pleasant,ra., in the English language, end Rev. W. Londle, of Harmony, in the German langtiage. • A Board of Directors, rept..- .Venting We climes of St. Clar ion and • 'Westmoreland, was appointed, to whom is entrusted the general manage ment. Rey. C . A. Limber was elected temporary House-Father, or Superin tendent. Several orphans aro already in the Home; and application for some thirty more has been mado. ' A charity Ike this 'M highly creditable to these who bare 'projected and so liberally ear. vied It forward thus far, and commends itself to the sympathy and aid of a phi lanthropic, chrlstlan community.
