tvoni'd Tirent'e - Iftiir last evening,
drew together a very large audience. Before
- the'lectninf appeared on - the' stage the audi
ence were edatertaine&by'the Hutchinson fare- .
ily, with several 6f their most patriotic sengs..l
Mr. Philips Was: • then introduced by Senator
Trish, when he at once proceededlo the discus
*km of Ids subj eat, The War.. This was done in a
masterly and unequivocal -manner; and' an a
style of sentiment and language, to Which -no
Man, (unless it be a notorious pro-slavery
rent,) who heard him, could take exception.
He traced effects to causes, leaving his andtence
to judge their merits for themselves. White
he, with an argument at once overwhelinid I ;
and irrefutable, held up the cause of thaf free
dom which is inimical to truth; and whichrtio
mtn Can . disregard without proving hitriself in
mni er bondage to error than even that in Which
the slave of the south has : been degenerating
in body and soul for Many years. Whatever
Mr. Philips may have uttered in other locals=
.ties, and however radical he may have been
heretofore lo his opposition to slavery and his
denunciation of the Constitution, his le tune
lest- evening proved at least that he uo4 re
gards our difficulties with the mind and )eati
motion of a statesman, end proposes to meet
them, with a practical good sense and in
fluence, and not with theories and party
'platforms. So far as the subject of shivery
was oonoernrd, that, in his opinion, heed
ed to agitation. Its doom was proclaim
ed in its own position; and its end, `with
the fearful enormities of which it had bail the
Author, would go down in darkness and( dis
grace. How soon that end would come 3 :/ t was
not for him to estlinate. It might be five are,
4 ten.years, or even twenty yeast. The tim4 was
" immaterial. The fact was sufficient *lit it
coal& Vet be perpetuated ; hence the obje t of
the rehediort
,had faiW, and 'hence, too the
advooates of freedom were satisfied. The / lec
turer endorsed the policy of the administriition
,on AI 4gtteck,of stuincipittion—he_ eaddreed
its militsry operations, and drew a vivid phittire

such as could and did not fail to have the hap-

HOW REBELLON AFFECTS TEE FRAN-
CHISBOF TEE REBELS.
A question hal arlsen in the border states,
and it is now keg discussed in Kentucky and
Tennessee, as to i bather the acts of those now
in arms, do not &franchise them as citizens of
the United Stater If a man is convicted of a
crime, and sere out a sentence in any peni
tentiary, the fac disfranchise him, and be is
thenceforth depr ed of all political privileges.
There is no grea r crime against human gov
ernment and la , than treason. It includes
all the other degees of crime, such as murder,
arson, theft, and falsehood. Hence we deem
this discussion o' thus disfranchising all who
took any active put in this rebellion as both
opportune and i politio, because those who
banded and swore the destruction of the govern
ment, should never hereafter hive any voice
or right to, participate 'in its control. If it is
right to ditionehisea . man who has served a
term in a penitentiary, we consider it equally
right that every man ahould also be deprived
of his political privileges who served a term in
an army organized and led on to the destruc
tion of this government. Thus, for instance, to
tlicisoirim Iniie taken the oath ofellegiance to,
and borne arms in support of, the rebel govern
eminent, each a deprivation should be deemed
a slight punishment' for the extent of their
crimes, "and 'any rc be! heretofore bearing arms
against the federal power, who would attempt
another rebellion against this proposition in the
Ave of 'a law, should 'be hrmg:after as short
a trial as rebels generally vouchsafe to loyal
men.
As this agitation originated among the Union
men of the border states, we, consider that it
was not broached before it had passed a tile r ough examination. lf, for instance, all the
rebel stateit ohm:ld-again come back into the
Union, and again public sentiment should be
put to the test of a trial at the polls, could the
loyal men in those states ever hope to be heard
in this government ? Could the loyal citizens
of Georgia, Tennessee or Kentucky ever hope to
halve*, voles iniCongnise t . Certainly not. The
sante'ecenes enric4d ; h2 egudtess yearn ago, by
thereante-risehirhoati,mowthe letaders of the
rebellion would be re r eoacted, and when an
other opp9rtimity . afforded the eucouragement,
another rebellion would be precipitated for the
destruction of the Union. Certainly no rest -
Soliable man can object to the disfranchisement
of the:rebels oh theaegrounds e end we therefore
hail this agitation in the border states, as
greater. prciof af the sin ce re and returning loy
alty of the people in those rogiens, thus any
;we have yet seen since , they . set ußthe plea of
neutrality or broke out in open rebellion. We
trust that the agitation will be continued until
a definite result hail:men aChieved.

THE KEYSTONE JAO7lr.
As the army of the Potomac movetisouthwto
—as Burnside presses the coast, and our troops
in Kentucky and Tennessee begin to strike blows,
we must prepare to hear good news from the
Keystone Boys. Therecannot be an engagement
by the army of the Potomac, without engaging
from fifty to seventy-five thousand men from
Pennsylvania. This fact is not new, but it is
patent. Therefore we dare anticipate a new
glory for our good old Commonwealth to be re
flected in the stern deeds of *those of her sons
who have gone forth to battle, and, if necessa
ry, to death. These troops are composed of
men who are inured to labor and accustomed
to danger. They constitute the men from our
mountain homes, acquainted with the daring ex"
ploits and exciting chances of the chase amid
the fotests—they embrace in their ranks the
patient fanner, who understands only the rights,
and quails from no danger when law and justice
need vindication and support—while joined to
these, are thousands of young mechanics and
professional men, who, with their knowledge
of the arts of mechapicism and the science of
logic and detail, go to render our army one of
the most sublime collections of physical force
and combinations of intellectual, capacity, that
ever marched beneath a banner or were mar
shalled for a fight. Castilian prowess never
equalled it--Prench chivalry become+ insignifi
cant when compaied twit—while there is noth
ing in history, ancient or modern , ' that-' could
rival in moral grantliur or combined greatness
the armies of our Republic.
—We must wait, 'patiently for results from
our Pennsylvania boss. To them has been con
fided the honor of thistate. They are to bear It
with them in the fight, while we at home must
ever bear in mind, that . to us Is confided the
care in the future of' those who may be made
the Builders in the battles of the present.

The tollowiug despatch was received here to
night:
KAMM Ccrr, March 18.—George T. Beale,
bearer of despatobes to Washington, brings ad
vices from Santa Fe to the 3d inst. He con
firms the previous accounts of the battle at
Fort Craig on the,2lat,ulr The United States
troops lost 82 killed and 140 wounded. Tue
Texans captamd six of our field pieces. They
were woman itd by Col. Steele. The Texans
were at Socsreo, 88 miles north of Fort Craig.
Col. Canby's command was concentrated at
Fort Craig. Nothing has been heard from them
since the 26th nit , all communication with the
Fort being oat off.
A large amount of government stores at. Al
buquerque had been destroyed to prevent them
from falling into theliands of the rebels. Four
hundred and fifty Texans with two pieces of
artillery entered Albuquerque on the second.
Major 'Donelson; 'commanding the district of
Santa Fe, waspreparing. to abandon that place
and fall back to Fort Union. One hundredand
fifty wagon loads of government stores were
being removed from Santa Fe to Fort Union.
On Monday,' the Brd, Mr. Beale met three
companies of Colorado volunteers, under Lieu
tenant-Colonel Tappan, at the Hole in the Rock,
fifty miles north of Beam Fort, en route to Fort
Union. tievt-n more companies had crossed the
river above. They would meet at Purgatory,
forty miles south of Bents Fort. Mr. Beale lett
this morning for Washington.
Sr. Loom, March 20.—A correspondent of the
Republican, writing from the camp near Bent's
old tort, New Mexico, March Bth, says: It is
supposed that the rebels. after their victory near
Fort Craig. will march dirctly on Santa Fe and
Fort Uilion. All the valuable property in the
department to being concentrated at the latter
place, and all the available* force is being
forward.d there to defend it.
The property amounts, it is said, to several
million dollars. +ea Hough's First ItegiMent
of Colorado, volunteers lett this camp yester
day, and will reach Fort Union by the .1.2(h of
March, in advance of the rebels.
Fort Union is a strong fort, and a thottiand
men can hold it against the combined strength
of the rebels,
,
Colonel Canby is still supposed to be at Fort
Craig with 1,200 regulars-and a body of Few
Mexican volunteers, who however,are not relied
on. The Santa Fe Gazette says that Captain
hicllea'a. battery was captured in the battle
near Fort Craig, in consequence of its support,
consisting of teo vrinpanie.s of regulars and two
companies of volunteers,
running away when
the Teams charged, and resisting the effort of

ROUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
The House passed tt.e bill to secure to the
pilots, engineers, sailors, and crews on the
gunboats, their pensions.
Mr. STYYLVS, (1 6 a.,) suggested that the House
do not adjourn over to-morrow as customary,
as he desired to devote that day to several
measures which was deemed important by the
Treasury department.
Mr. VALLAIIDISGILUI, (Ohio,) inquired how
soon, in the opinion of Mr. Stevens, Congress
would be able to adjourn.
Mr. Simms replied that depends on how
Many objections were made to the tax and
other Will. So far as the Committee on Ways
and Means were concerned, the state of business
would en the House to adjourn by the first
of May.
Mr.Varautsmanaz hoped that Congress would
posh business so as to enable them to adjourn
at that time.
Mr. STEVIO9B added that we must work more
hours, and perhaps sit during the evening.
The House concurred in the Senate's amend

law of prises.
The House then went into committee of the

to the consideration of the tax-bill, Mr. Colfax

The Iron Battery Naugatuck.
The government is soon to be placed iu pos
session of a email but staunch iron gunboat,
the gift or Mr. Stevens, conductor for the famous
floating battery at Hoboken. This craft wee
originally a canal boat, and has been fitted up
with a screw propellor, water-tight partitions,-
and all the contrivances for sinking her to a
fighting depth which have been introduced in
the great battery. She in tact, designed to
illustrate, on a small scale, the principal novel
ties and merits of that mammoth concern; and,
at a preliminary test to which she was subject
ed some months ago, in the presence of a large
number of army and navy officers and
gentlemen, she was found to work admirably.
She could be entirely submerged, with the ex
ception of her gunwale, in a few minutes, and
could be quickly turned about, like a tectotum,
in her own length. Since those satisfactory
experiments, Mr. Stevens has still farther
strengthened and Improved her sailing and
fighting qualities, and Is now prepared to turn
her over to the government, free of expense,
for active service. Her name is the Naugatuck.
Her dimensions are those of an ordinary canal
boat, and she will be sent by canal from this
city to Washington. Her speed, above water,
is ten knots an hour, and, when stibmerged to
the depth of feet, about seven knots.
The Naugatuck can carry coal for twelve
days, and a crew large enough to work the ves
sel and handle her armament. The latter con
sists of. a single one hundred pounder:of the
Plorott pattern, which experiments have proved
to be perhaps the most formidable rifled gun in
the world. When the Naugatuck et sunk to
her fighting depth, by the admissiou of water
to the chambers In her bow and stern, her en
tire machinery, steering apparatus and vulnent
ele parts will be below , the water line; and
nOthingSwill be exported to.the enemy's shots
but a narrow strip of white pine, (which does
not splinter,) constituting the ' , gunwale, and
the gun itself. Her small size, sod the scanti•
Hess of her exposed lines, would enable her to
approach close to a misfile vessel in a dark
night, and deliver her one hundred pounder
with terrible effect. The Naugatuck will start
for Washington at an early day. Capt. Fannce,
late of the revenue cutter Harriet Lane, has,
by directions of the government, inatieoted this

firsaux&s. Fazurrr.—We learn that on Thee
day afternoon a boy named Henry Kamer was
killed in a singular manner. He was playing
marbles near his residence, corner of Sizth and
0 streets, when a cart came Along; aad so in
tently was the little fellow engaged in his
amusement that he did not perceive the cart
until it was upon him. He was knocked down,
and the wheel passed over his need, killing
him almost instantly.
A comrade of the boy, about the same age,
named C. Schlegel, who was jest recovering
from a spell of illness, and at the thee of the
accident, was looking from his.door. When he
saw the lit 1e fellow fall he was so frightened
that he went directly to a sofa where he laid
but a few moments before he was a corpse.—
