Senator toolier and Railroad
Iroa,
IrrWe have received a copy of the
speech recently delivered in the Senate,
by the H
Lion. James Cooper. in opposition
to the bill , granting to Railroad Companies
three years in which to pay t h e duties on I
iron imported for,,Railroad purposes, li
is an effort of tnarkedtbifity. Mr. Cooper
opposed the measure on-,various grounds.
In tho first place, because the session was
so near its close. In the second, because
the interest which the bill , was, calculated
to effect'most deeply Was far. from being
in a prosperous conditiou. In the third,
bombs(' the principle, ,of the measure was
radically wrong. In the fourth, beeziuse
frequent elniuges of legislation, either
with the object of defining the rights, or
redressing the wrongs of individuals, or
gaud a want of wisdom, stability, and fore
cast in the Legi,lature, and resulted in
breeding contempt for the authority of its
enactments. Nothing, he said, was more
detrimental to the interests of labor, than
to incite it, by legislation, int.l a portico
lar channel, awl then to prostrate by aban
doning it to a competition which, owing
to circumstances, it could not endure.—
Yet for more then twenty years this had
been the 'course of cougra.ssional legisla
tion in respect to many of the branches of
Atuericaul!tdustry ; and none of them bad
.'suffered from it more than the manufac
, rers - of iron.
ICP Congress will adjourn to-morrow
night, and theinembers ate working hard
to pass ; through important bills. An ex
citing debate took ply() in the Senate on
Friday upon a bill to reinforce the fugi
tive act, by removing all suits against dn.
cers of the general government ler out
rages cough tcd by . them while serving pro
ems under that act, and otherfederal laws,

dangerous usurpation df power by the gen•

the allocution delivered by the Popo, in
the Consistory held Rome on- the 28th
of January, in regard . to the movements of

ulledged %rowing, power of the Church in
that country.
A bill 'IS been under consideration in
the Legislature of r licdtnont for easing the
church of its rich and multiform property,
including in part the suppression, and in
part the reform, of Atonasteries anti con
vents, by putting them under civil juris
diction. This vent is the more ominous in
view of a similar threatened movement in
Spain, and it has naturally excited the at
tention of the Pontifical Government, and
produced considerable excitement in Ett•
rope. The contest in Piedmont is between
the Catholic laity and the prilsthood—the '
former claiming the control of churches
and church. property against tho assunip
dons of the latter. It is iu some respects
analogous to the ? controversies in this coun•
try, at Buffolo, St. Louis, Hartford, and
other plates to adjust which formed part
of the mission of the Pupal Nuncio Bedini.
The i contest in Piedmont has been going
on for 'some time with considerable bitter

the Legislature and threatening to enforce
their views by the strong arm of Govern.

If we understand the Pepe's allocution,
his Holiness proposes_to.deal with the re
refractory Piedtoontese after the manner'
of some of hi's Predecessors, declaring the

An Interesting Leiter.
7'Every reader. says the National
Intelligcncer, will agree with 1/3 that the
subjoined letter is not only an interesting
ono, but that, the concluding sentence of
it makes it a remarkable one. It is en
exact copy of a letter written by General
Winfield Scott, then a captain iu the army,
during a sojourn at Iris home in Peters•
burg, Virginia, on the 18th ofJune, 1811,
just one year before the declaration of
war. The letter was addressed to au old
friend in this city, cud is now in, the. pod
sessipa of the son, J. L. Edwards, Esq.—
Great events make great men. It seems
to have been the purpose of the young
soldier to leave a service of of inaction and
return to the law. We aro left in doubt
whether he would have become as renown
ed at the bar as he has in the field ; but,
be that as it may, war soon followed, and
the young captain, by a course of ; service
unexampled in brilliancy and duration,
has risen, step by step, in the "career of
distinction, until, at time end of 44 years,
he finds himself, on this venerated auiver-
nary, crowned with the highest military
honor which his country can bestow.—
Truly burrito "written his history with
his sword," a 'history rice from a stain

upwards of 60 parsons were lost. The

I bad not the heart to decline, but

which was his faithful companion, in his

When the hand of death was upon hum,

a testimonial of his high appreciation of
the services, worth and courage of that
moat estimable citizen and distinguished
soldier, whose desperate valor on one oc.

and saved the army from destruction.—

ing that tif be the voper disposition of a

be a cherished one for the American peo
ple, To carry that purpose into effect,
I now offer it in their name to Congress.
Mr, President, this is no doubtful relic,
whose identity depends upon uncertain
tradition, and wine!' owes its interest to an
impulsive imaginatiom Its authenticity
is established beyond controversy by the
papers which riecompany it, and it derives
its valets as well from our knowlege of its
history as from its association with the
gre a t ea ptaM whose days of toil and nights
of trouble it shared and witnessed, and
who never drew it from its scabbard but
to defend din honor nod the interests ci
his vounirf.
This is neither the time nor the place
to portray there great traits of character
which gave to Gen. Jackson. toe ascender•
cy that no man ever denied who approach•
ed him, and that wonderful influence with
his country - awn which marked almost his
whole course from his entrance upon a

must find at last. Still, from tiny personil
