The Governor also desired to say that he parted from the" inennbern of the Legislature.with feelings Of 'deep, regret, and' he returned his thanks 19 both IfoUses for their co-operation in carryitebtit, the me,a sures which he had reenminended, aad espe cially in the piissage of the revenue bill.. MESSAGES FROM- THE GOVERNOR. Several messages from the Governor, stating the signature of various bills, were pr sented during the morning.

JOHNSON, Speaker of the House of Representatives, for; ,:the im-, partial and- dignified-man . nerin whic presided over our deliberaticinSl far id in our separation, we desire to express to him oi& kind acknowledgments for his urbanity and 'gentlemanly bearing. liemarkS highly eulogistic of the official and personal deportment of the Speaker we re made by Messrs.

The yeas and nays being taken on,the reso lution, it ,was adopted unanimously. Mr. SMITH, (Chester,) acting ..on.the ;part of the officers of the House titen_pre; len fed. to Speaker - tiothigairiChatiO gold-b .eatled cane as a testimonial. Of "their gnitefiir appre ciation of the obligations under which he hid placed them by his kind and courteou s bear ing toward. them. Mr. SMITH, in making this presentation, spoke as follows: ,Mr. Speaker, the officers of this House have requeSted' tee, in their narue, to-prest Lut this cane to you.. They make the offeri ag as a token of respect and regard for you, bothin your personal and official relations mien them. They are not without the hope, also, fad after their separation from you, when you use it or see it, you may revert with recollocticati'of satisfaction to your intercourse with and with the fneling that' however theymay have failed practically, it was their desire and effort to sustain you , in conducting the busi ness of the House, and to yield without re luctance to your directions. They desire, too, to take this occasion to say, that they have met at your hands, at all times,' kindness: and consideration, which, they appreciate and will not. forget. For these they direct me to ex press their hearty thanks, and to say that they will not pass from their recollection. We all can, doubtless, recur to instances when, to have separated from a strange travel er into whose company we had casually fallen on our way, has caused real sorrow; and we have felt—what is true—that even this slight tie had not altogether broken its connection, although we may have been well assured• that our first and last meeting was the same. But when, after; a daily intercourse of months, acquaintance;' has ripened into affectionate friendship, separation, which may be final, and,which forebodes with ; reasonable certainty that there will be, no subsequent' meeting in the same circumstances-is accompanied with a pang which is not soon soothed. Such is their feeling. now. May it not be yours also? They desire me to express to you their wishes for the future welfare and success of your life, which they hope the blessing of Provi dence may make useful and prosperous. Hoping, too, that in its path you may meet more efficient friends, they are assured you will none-more sincere. 29 And, Mr. Speaker, allow me, to say .fI~C my self, although not`sustaining, toward you pre cisely the same relation as those for.whom have spoken, that everything that I say in the name of these officers, so far as it is appropri ate, I wish to be considered as saying for my self. Ourintercourse, sir, extends back be yond this session. We met last year, and Un der circumstances 'very much the same; but at that time we were upon the floor together. 11 may,say that, during the whole of lastaession, your bearing toward me was marked-by Mud ness and even by respect, which, probably you rendered rather on account of my years than by reason of any right on my part to claim it. I may say, also, at the breaking up of this session, and in view of what must be, so far as I am concerned, our list meeting, it is with sincere sorrow that I separate from every man in this House. I know myself, perhaps, better than any man who knows me. There are with all of us at times ebullitions of feeling which have their unpleasantness; but these die with the moment. In leaving this Hall, I trust that all our recollections may be those of kindness. That which has had an appearance of asperity, let it be buried in ob livion; and if we meet not again on this earth, may we all of us "meet beyond the river, where the surges cease to roll." F. Speaker JOHNSON then said: Mr. Sneaker, I accept of this beautiful p - tesent with grateful pride; and appreciatirig the kindness of the officers who - have t'aus hon oredine, I will take occasion to , speak more at length on this subject tit the close of this morning's proceedings.

HARRISBURG, PA., FRIDAY EVENING, MA'Y 6, 1864 charge of the onerous dutien devolving on him during our protracted session. • The resolution was unanimously adopted. Mr. BARGER then, on behalf of the Demo cratic members of the House, presented to Mr. BENEMICT a gold-headed cane. Mr. BARG-ER said ' : fir. Speaker, I am charged by my friends on this side with the discharge of a very pleasant duty—a duty - which I assume with cheerfulness, because it affords me the .opportunity to pay a proper taibute to a faithful officer and a gentleman. I am directed by the gentlemen upon this side of' the House to present to the Chief Clerk this small testimonial of their regard for him. their appreciation and=,': their estimation of the faithful 'manner in which he has discharged his duties as Clerk of this Honse. think nay, I know that I , echo the feelings , of all_upon this side of the HOLM when :I Say tat they fully and entirely appreciate the faithful manner in which the - retiring Clerk has diricharged the duties of his position. For myself, I may be ,permitted to say that I join in this testimonial with the 'heartiest cordiality. I became ac quainted With Mr. Benedict last year when ":both he anal sat upon this,floor as' members of the Honse. He then, it is true, bore to , nrard me the relation of a political opponent, lint, independently of that,' he exhibited the social qualities'of a kind and cuorteous gentle man. Time and again have I applied to , him for assistance; time and again has he cheer fully acceded it, as would a:father to a ,son. Mr. Speaker, in receiving this testimonial, Set remember that it carries - with it 'the kind feelings and the "good wishes of the do nors • and, in after years, when passing down the-deolining yale, and when looking at this gift, clitstering as it is with'the good feelings of those, who present it, '1 bid him recollect that, although they were pblitically opposed' to him, yet by his kindness of manners and his able discharge'of his dUties, ' he won the united esteem of all, the members of this body. Mr. BENEDICT,' - ln receiving the testimo nial, said : This evidence of your kindness and confidence, thie assurance that you have been satisfied with the execution of the im portant and responsible trust committed to my charge, flatters and overwhelms me. In the turmoil and-strife 'of life, when worn with its cares and toils, we gladly and gratefally turn to the warm greetingT and Welponis pthindits of 'Mends. The strain Upon the mental and physical energies is relieved, by the soothing touch and influence of the dear ones we loyal lean now feel and 'appreciate hoW delightful is that kindness ministered by those upon whose kindness I have no claim. Self-opinionated sobstinancy often sepa rates those who ought to'be ever' friends. Among all the surroundings of life, no so mischievous,. no so malevolent spirit is found as the demon of politicsnot the hone 4 dif ferences of honest men—notihnt philosophy of investigation - whichjeads differently organ-. ized min& in opposite direeticins.` Theee'are kilt separate paths which active inquiry finds and follows in its search fOr truth, 'but that other spirit which assumes ,and asserts its em; pineonly in partikan , struggle's for place or polwer—that spirit which cannot see its own, yet prates of the faulte'and frailties of those whom it assails,' We should get nearer to each other,. and speak not 'what we hear, but what we know, tempering our tongues only with truth and fairness. As years and the afflictions of the world have whitened my locks and sobered the hoelmpulses of my heart, they have graven these convictions firmly upon it. - The partiality and kindness of personal and poh tical friends called me to' the duties of this Josh i your approval and endorsement cheers and gladdens me as 1 retire from its active 1 shore. I stand to-day in the presence of you a 11, and in the, presence of Him who searcheth' the heart, and I have aright to' say that I ha` 13 tried to do my whole duty. No difference of opinion, no 'attachment - or prej udice has t urned me from my purpose. I felt the poet's wisdom when he wrote— "To t.ltine own self be true, And it mm. It follow, as the night the day, Thou cans't .not then be false to any man." May I not aocopt this kind gift in the spirit that gave it? We shall soon Wit. In this day, when the shock and the calarilities of war produce won derful transitions, wk.` cannot foretell what lies in the future. For niy , self; of the members of this session, I can Say- • . "14 fate do her worst, there areve - oments of joy— Bright gleams from the, p ast she cannot de stroy." :Your kindness. I shall re,'nember while I liVe; and I believe a part of tile joys of that pleasant land which lies beyond the lights and shadows of life will be the recollection of those scenes of life when, rising above the grosser passithig''Of the creature, we have given and received tokens of our better Man hood. • Again, I - accept your gift. As its beautiful form and f.rtish support the outer man, so, I trust, the vemembrance of this hour will sup port my i nner man with the reflection that I have fulfilled the duties of a high trust, and in.tentac.nally given no 'one cause of censure or crim pl aint. lar. SHABPE offered the following resolu: tirju: - Belayed, That the thanks of this body are hereby tendered to on A . .• Swum, Esq., As sistant Clerk, for his efficient, prompt and courteous conduct to the members of this House. Mr. BIGHAM. Mr. Speaker, some nine teen years ago, wh en I flrithad thehonor of a seat on this floor, Vhe gentleman referred to in this resolutiOn Was a sort of- go-between— errand boy, page, clerk—making himself use ful in all capacitie s. He was then a slight boy; he has, of course, changed a good deal since that time, 1:1• i p to the period to which I refer, the system .of pages, etc., that has since been organized, did -not exist; I may remark that Mr. Smull Was; to some extent, the means of the introduction of that system. By his uniform industry, attention and urbanity, he has made himself a-neces sity with all the members of this House. He has become, imagine, a fixture. His use fulness is so generally recognized that I sup pose, so long as he lives and the Legislature continues to meet here, the members of this House will not consent to part with him. I feel that he fully dtser-ves all the-commenda tion embodied in the resolution of the gentle man fram Franklin. Qn the adoption of the resolution, the yeas and nays were taken,: and it was unanimously agreed to. The 'resolution was then unanimously adopted.__ Mr. SHIM' RE, After a few prelitninary narks refeiring . to *the soleimi reflections nat urally excited by the scene of separation about to take place in the House, continued: The Democratic members of this Rouse have charged me, Mr. Smull, with the agreeable duty of placing in your hands this. cane as a thank-offering-for your fidelity and urbanity, your genial deportment as a gentleman and your impartiality and integrity as an officer of this House. This gift is of very little in trinsic value, but as an honest expression of our esteem of your worth—an expression em enating from sincere hearts—we trust that you will prize it highly for the sake of those who gave it, and more especially as an evi dence that even in these degenerate days, the faithful discharge of duty, still exacts the tribute of homage and admiration, and that now the couplet is as fully recognized to be true as ever it was— "Honor or shame from no condition rise; Act well, your part; there all your honor lies." It would be very agreeable to me to dwell loriger upon this subject; buy I desist because I am conscious that upon occasions like the present the deepest feeling is but expressed by silence, and that a multiplication of words would be very apt to chill the . fervor of our, hearts. With many gentlemen upon both sides of the • chamber, intercourse and ac quaintance with you have been 'of several years standing; with myself they have been the growth of a few months. But the, merit which can make friends in a.few months, and bind them withlinks - o4.steel,:as if by the ex;. perience , of years, is of ft,:very high order. Let me assure you, sir, in the, name of these gentlementand - for myself that you have done se. If I were to exhaust the language of the heart, I could not bestow upon you a higher meed.of praise than that Iwith which youri•own character and deportment have crowned vu. Now, you are young and your footstelf is elastic; you need not this cane lo support you. But 50 years hence, if 'a kind Provi dence should so long spare your life, that form will be bent under the weight of fouv score years, and that elastic tread will be changed to the tottering footstep of feeble old age; and then what a pleasing spectacle it will be to see the youth bf 'to-day leaning for support %fon the staff placed in Ali hands by his friends ill the 'Lagislature' of 1864: I know not that any of us will be living to see 'that day. Bat if, in the mysterious provi dence of God, we should 'depart, this mute stick will then become eloquent with a hun dred tougues, , speaking of joys that lie buried in the grave of the year of our Lord one thou sand eight.hun,dred and sixty-four. Par.• Smull;- in receiving the testifinmial, (a beautiful gold-headed cane,) said: This expres sion of thaWarru feelings-of, my fkiends -finds the incapable of malting an adequate az kno*ledgment in words; and•l am left to the alternettiViOdff actifviiie 'it with am simple thanks. ' Mr. QUIGDEY offered the following res 9. -, 41tition, whieh'was unanimously adf3Pted : Resolved, That the members of this House tender to j thei t first assistant clerk, James C. Brown, Esq., their grateftd,ackuowledgments for the faithful . disehafge'Cif 'his duties during the session of the L,egislidule. Mr. glalg,DETthen, proceeded to .present. to Mr. Bimini, a '&ld-headed cane saying: Mr. Speaker, the Democratic members of this House; appreciating the 'many kindnesses of our first assistant clerk, have charged.ine with a very unpleasant duty. In .. a *Ord, Mr. Speaker, they have charged me to cane our as sists.nt clerk. [Laughte.] Bat they have also charged me, in doing so, not to hurt him very much! As our time is faSt running out, I will not detain the` House by a speech, but without saying more,_will present to Mr. Brown this testimonial. ''• Mr. BROWN, in responding, said : Gen tlemen, I accept of this testimonial with gra titude which words are not able fo express. I certainly had no right to elpectithis testi monial of regard from the Democratic mem bers of the House, or the very flattering, man ner in which the House has seen fit to spdak of my services in the resolution which has been passed. Such a preSent as this over comes me. Permit me, however, to say thitt, in the performance of my duties, I have ever endeavored to discharge them impar tially without respect to party. Although I am indebted, it is true, to the Republican side of the House for my, position, I have en deavored to remember that I was the 'Servant of the whole House, Democrats as well as Re publicans, aril that I have so far succeededin discharging my duties as not to receive the censure of either side, certainly gratifies me exceedingly. Ddelight to be caned under such circumstances. Permit me to tender to you all my thankk. . I will treasure this testimo nial, and will ever look upon it with feelings of pride and pleasure. Mr. JOSEPHS offered the following re.soln tion, which was unanimously adopted: Resolved, That our ,thanks are hereby ten dered to the transcribing clerks, for ,their promptitude and efficiency , in the discharge of the arduous duties devolving on them durin , 7 this session. Mr. Speaker JOHNSON said: Gentlernen, officers of the 'House, raccept this handsome gift of yours with feelings of gratitude ; and I shall ever prize it highly, not merely on ac count of.its intrinsic worth, but in view of the kind feelings which have proinpted those who gave it. -We met comparatively as strangers ; we separate as friends. It is often said that • the true method: by, which to discover the qualities of a man is to accompany him on a long sea voyage, or a long journey 'by land.— We, in the performance - °row. several du ties, have ,- journeyed together An the: saane road for four months ; and, Jet me say, gen tlemen,: that if, during that. time, I have not been able and' heintily . supported in my relation as Speaker of this House, I have been unconsciona 'Of the fact. When I have thought of the aid which I have received at this desk—wheni have thought of the aid which I have'received at your hands—l haVe exclaimed to myself, "Was ever man in this position sustained as I have been?" And, gentlemen, when, 'after our separation, .we look back to our associations -connected with this House,, I, for one, will always revert to them with feelings of pleature, and never will I be able to take. this stick in my hands 'without thinking of, those who presented it. Gentlemen of the House of Representatives, the dial admonishes me that it is proper that I should be brief in what I shall say to you. I have made no preparation for-this occasion. I have thought that the occasion would sug gest what might be called for. What has been said to-day has been so far in advance of any. , thing that I had aright to expect or hope for that I scarcely know what to say in reply to your words of kindnesivor hovi to expresstay egitude for your acts of generosity. When wp niet here four months ago, many of us met as former friends, .bnt a &ll greater number as strangers to each other, You placed mein PRICE TWO CENTS. this high and, responsible position. I entered upon its &idles with a sincere diitrust of my capabilities to perforni all that might- be in cumbent upon me. I -appealed to you for aid in my weakness, and that appeal, did not fall upon, unwilling ears or ungenerous hunts. Through this long and laborious ses sion, I have frequently felt that I have erred. I have felt that in that respect I have. perhaps been weaker than the ordinary Si - eakness of mortality. But I protest, gentlemen, in your presence and before Heaven, that thoSe errors' were of the head and not of the „heart. If any man, by the administration of the func tions of this Chair, has at any time felt hini self aggrieved, let him put it down' as certain as that we live and breathe, that there was no spirit of malevolence—no act of intended unkindness on the part of the. Speaker. When we separate to-day, we sepa rate, so far' as I am_concerned, wholly and unreservedly friends. There has been no act of this sesion, no act of this day, that can. leave in my heart an unpleasant recollection. This session has been distinguished by un usual kindness Of feeling. served as a mem ber of, this House through the session pre ceeding this, and I have been associated with others who have served here through many years; and it has been a matter Of general remark that, their has been less of personal asperity, less of personal unkindness, than has ever been known at any previous session. This might be expected. We have among us men of nnsual ability—many men of great kindness of heart, and as a gener ialt thing men of courteous and devdted deportment' in their social intercourse. Gentlemen, to have presided over a body of this kind, embracing men of acknowledged ability, many, men who have already mad ,their mark and many others who 'are bound to make their mark in the history of this State and of, this nation, is I feel, a high_honor—one which I ill recollect with gratitude to to `'my dying day. When 1 think of the high character of some of the men who sit in this hall, of their great goodness of heart .and their moral and intellectual worth, I feel that I have attained far beyond my deserts in the kindness and generosity with which they have sustained rile at all times, and I feel that if I had not been sustained with:this, I Might say, munificence of kind men, my 'adirdnistration would hain beiniii a failure :- ;rforz the kindness, c tfor the honor of which I have been the recipient, I will be forever grateful.. In making: this acknowlearioaertkleel that; I would beless'ilein just, if I - shardd say that I am under lasting obligations to the distinguished veteran who, sits-at this desk as Chief Clerk; arid to the gentlemin who sits' before me with many years of experience— Mr. Smull... With, Mr. Benedict I had an as &ablation as 'a meinber of this House last winter, and_early in that session we became friends. Tat friendship, on my park, in `elided an intense respect for his learn ing and ability, and a -lively a.pprecia ;ti. , of his, companionship .AS a gentleman. " en, at "the Opening of this session, I en tered upon the duties of this position, I knew his experience, his acquirements and . his `worth, and r assumed - this position witha feeling of reliance that I would be sustained by him and by Mr. Smull in such a manner as would command my own confidence,. if not that of the 'Honse; "and' When I recar . to the' uniform respect which :has been shown for my decisions and for my actions here, I have been inclined to attribute. it more. to The:up lifting support of these gentlemen than to any weight attaching to my own judgment or ex perience. Gentlemen; I might be doing wrong tiAres pass further upon your time; but believe me that, when we meet inAugust next; We shall meet, I trust, as friends, andl shall experience towards you the feelings of a gratefal man. The hour of 12 o'clock having arrived, this House stands adjourned until the 23d day of August next, at 12 o'clock m. 3311 TeCegrap4. From Wasilihitgton.

N. C. =l=l Previous Reports Exaggerated. The letter from Fortress Monroe dated the 3d inst., in regard to the evacuation of Little Washington,is evidently a great exaggeration, aletter from Fortress Monroe dated yesterday, says, several refugees have arrived from Little Washington. They report that the place was burned last Saturday, probably by a guerrilla party. It should be remembered that Little 'Washington was only a very, small town, which in its most prosperous days had only aboot 2,000 inhabi tants, was built mainly of wood, so that it is absurd.to speak of a loss of several millions. All the towns on Pamlico Sound would hard ly be worth - as much. `"'• Markets by Telegraph.

SENATE WASHINGTON, May 5. Bishop Clarke (Rhode Island) made the opening prayer. Itir. CoHamer (Vt.) reported, from the Com mittee on Post Office and Post Roads, the House bill to establish an ocean steamship - service between Brazil and the United States, with an amendment. Mr. Wilkinson. (Minn.) desired to, further amend the bill, , and not having his amend nent prepared asked that the subject be laid over, which was agreed to. Mr. Wade, (Ohio,) from the territorial cora raittee, reported a bill to amend the enabling act for the people of Nevada. It changes the time of election to the second Tuesday. The bill was passed. Mr. Howe addressed the Senate -at some length in support of the bill to pay Wiscon sin 5 per cent. of the grant of land made to her in 1838. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House went into committee of the whole on the state of the Union on the special order, namely, a bill to reimburse Pennsylva nia for the expenses incurred by that State in calling out the militia to repel the rebel inva sion. Mr. Cox offered au additional section ap propriating fifteen millions to defray-the ex penses of calling out volunteers, militia and recruits in Pennsylvania, ltiaryhtnd. - and other loyal States, to repel the rebel invaders. Mr. Carfield (Ohio) said this subject is before the Committee on Military Affairs, who had requested the department to give them all the facts. The committee, were daily expect ing a full report on various classes of claims ; it was necessary to have the facts before the House could . take intelligent action. He hoped, therefore, that the amendment of his colleague would not prevail. Mr. Smith .(Ky.) asked why the money should not be appropriated now. There was not in the War Department or elsewhere in Washington any evidence of the number of days for which various classes of men had been :Sailed out. These were to be determined as-the cases arise. Mr. Garfield replied that the Secretary of War says there is a large mass of papers from all these States which he is now collecting, embracing all parties. It is the intention of the- military commit tee to introduce a bill providing for a com mission to sit during the recess, to whom the papers will be referred and a report made at the next session of Congress. Then Congress will !know the sums due, and appropriate money accordingly. - Mr. Odell, (N. Y.,) in response to - Mr. Smith, said a commission was appointed as to the claims of Missouri, and when the re , port was made and the claims properly audit ed, Congress made an appropriation to cover the amounts. The Committee on Military Affairs proposed to pursue 'a similar course to ward the other States. Mr. Sing (Mo.) made a few remarks to show that the gentleman was .misiaken. Mr. Odell referred to the facts to show that 8800,000 7 - the result of the commission, will be paid to the Missouri Home Guard. • Mr. Blair (Mo.) said the Home Guard of Missouri are now being paid, he saw no dif ference between Pennsylvania and the posi tion that Missouri occupied before this body last December. The claims of the Pennsyl vania militia were as jest as those of the Mis 'souri Home Guards.
