In Senate, the Committee on Federal

have reported npon the petitions for a

eontenting themselves with voting against
it
Adjournment. The House, to-day, sent
in a joint resolution to adjourn over from
March to Jane about two months I The
Senate promptly amended by substitnting
a final adjournment on Thursday the 9th
of April. That is a little too soon, as the
meat important bills are yet to pass, bnt
laying over for two months will not (I
trust) be for a moment tolerated by the
Senate, even if Democratic Governor can
didates do desire it.
Confirming. The Senate bill to legal
ise tbe various County and other official
grants to Volunteers, drafted men, and
their families, after being kept back by
the Copperheads in the House for six
weeks, eame np to-day on final passage.
All tbe Republicans were for the bill,
with Speaker Cessna and six or eight
other Democrats, who would have passed
it finally in deferenee of the loyal people
everywhere bnt for opposition of the
Copperheads : these men made motion
after motion to exempt their own counties
the eonseqnence of which would have
been, that the Republicans and Union
Democrats, who advanced money to
defend tbe whole eonntry, would have to
lose it alL and tbe Copperheads (who
have n common interest) would have gone
free. A motion for the State to assume
all tbe indebtedness, and look to the Gen
eral Government for reimbursement,eansed
postponement of tbe whole question,
which vii made the epecial order for
Wednesday next. The last proposition
I deem nowise : let every eonnty give as
they promised, more or less liberally, a
they feel able : this would be exaet justice,
and bring home the responsibility in n
way that wonld prevent muoh defrauding
and "Indian gifts."
Both Houses adjourned over until
Monday, and nine-tenths of the Members
are absent
Childith. Some periqps, sent to Bar-
risburg aa men, are only big boys. ' Tbe
utmost they seem to aspire to do (after
drawing good pay) is to waste time m
frivolous ealls for Yeas snd Nays, or out
landish votes, or making a noise, or some
other way W try to render tbeir worthlese
names oouspieuous if not notorious.
Marked specimens of tbeee legislative
nuisances were visible in the afternoon
cession of the House. For instance,
what difference whether John Doe end
Riebard Roe vote to adjonra nntil 71
o'clock or 7 1 o'clock t A vote by eland
up until counted, would settle tbe point
in two minutes. Yet when I left tbe
Hall, seme Members wm demanding tbe j

to have passed several Bills on the
issue, 71, ve. 7i ! Such creatures degrade
Legislation, lower ths dignity of manhood,
and are n caricature npon humanity.
Satcbday, March 21.
The Election. Returning from a soeial
meeting, about 9 last evening, n quiet,
respectable citizen remarked to me,
know by the yells, and the motions of the
erowd about eertain rumbolee, that Roam
fort ie elected Mayor." He had not
heard one retorn, bnt be judged correotly
In a vote of 1628, Till, tbe Union eandi
date for Mayor, falls 53 behind. Last
fall, this same Room fort bad 266 maj. for
tbe Legislature, aod Miller about 500 for
Congress, in Harrisburg now, only 68
(Rumfort and Miller are both favorites of
the Peon's R. R. Company.) This is
handsome gain. The Demoerata have
been organising, holding weekly ward
meetings, and vigorously running all their
party engiues, for two months : the
Unionists formed a league a fortnight ago,
aod have held five general meetings in all,
Tbe elose result proves as last fall's
eouteet proved that, with an early and
efficient and comprehensive organisation,
we ean carry the State. Had our party
made one half the effort our opponents
did, we eould have had the State, tben, and
the eity, now. ..This "Gen." Roumfort wu
educated at West Point, but has not gons
into his country's serviee : whether be is
as malignant and mischievous a copperhead
as claimed by soma and charged by others,
is to be decided.
This is the fourth winter season
have spent in Harrisburg, aod I have
never known the frigid term so encroach
on the torrid. For once I oan compre
hend the poet's idea of
"Winter llD(erin( la tb Up of Spring.'
The continued, uniform cold is all right
for grain and fruit, for it keeps them from
premature development : but it is harder
npon the poor, and robs March of its usual
pleasantness as the opening of the vernal
season, when sorter airs, Dirauog melo
dies, and the brighter drapery of nature
give a genial impulse, and freshly inspirit
both wind and body. "Spring fevers"
usually hurry home the Legislature it is
not at all affected, that way, as yet. W.

from your late epeeeh has just come under
mv notiee. It bss tbe elear old demo
eratio ring, aod contrasts so strikiogly
with tbe spurious emanations of tbe latter
day democratic impostors that I ean not
forbear to bail it it reminds me ot tne
better days of the demoeratie party, when,
under tbe inspirations of Jackson and yonr
father, its boasted watchword wae "ine
Union, it must be preserved." Respon
sively to that sentiment, I upheld tbe
arms of both those magistrates to ths
Sitent of my ability and at tbe sacrifice
o t ome and its endearments, and am now
bearing arms, amid disease snd death,
against an armed enemy who would
desecrate it
Northern peaeemongers, who wonld
dishonor that sentiment by proclaiming
an armistice in tbe faee of n rebellious
and defiant enemy, but add pusillanimity
to treachery, end truly, as you energeti
eally eay, "will be serried away," if not
by "the torrent" ef public opinion, even
tually by force of arms.

An appeal to the benevolence, or rather
bentfieeoce, of man, is never out of place,
snd especially at the present day. Never
were there as many widows, never were
there as many orphans, never were there
as many booaeleas, homeless, waoderiog
ones, never were 'there ss maoy families
left without husband or father to oheer,
eomfort or sopport, never were there as
many families robbed of dear ones, io our
beloved eoaotry, as at present In a
word, never were there so many objects
of charity. What an opportunity for the
display of all those kindlier traits of mor
tals I
Tbe text under consideration, naturally
divides itself into two main features, in
volving tbe ebaraeter of the reooiver aud
the giver, or of objects of charity and tbe
beneficent
L First, tbsn, as to the character of
receieers or cnariliei. It is Bat disgraceful
to be poor, else we should not dwell upon
our present theme. Many are poor from
necessity. A train of circumstances
frequently reduces persons of real worth,
to beoome objects of the sympathy aod
support of their fellows in better circum
stances. It is in behalf of this elass we plead
ore especially. I myself am a complete
object of charity. Aod were it not for
my father and mother, my brothers living
and dead, I would this day bo at least one
thousand dollars poorer than nothing. 1
hope no one is in fault but myself. Rut,
as 10 some of tbe trait of charities.
1- Tbey should be xnduttrtout. To
be industrious, is bnt to carry out one of
tbe lawe of our being. In tbe North
manual labor is honorable ; in the South
manual labor is not honorable. And
verily believe, in tne war waging, one
purpose of the Almighty is to make rue
of the North to teach the South that
manual labor is honorable. I mast labor
to naiaa livalybood, and moat I, io eon
sequenoe. be looked npon with contempt
God forbid. Behold tbe beautiful, the
humble Ruth, toiling day after day, in the
open field beneath a aoorcbiog sun, to
caio a eupport a perfdet pattern of in
dustry. It was ber industry that first
altraoted the gaze or Boax. Had she
been lasy, ber beauty had been repulsive.
"Tbe diligent shall prosper," while "they
who will not work shall not eat." So
soon as tsoai was satuned mat sne was
really industrious, be eommanded his
reapers to let fall grain for her. Let ail
eharitiea observe it closely.
2. They shonld be frugal To prao
tioe a eareful economy, la a subject too
much negleoted. Many persons, really
industrious, from want of knowledge of
the principles ot eoonomy, waste their
bard earnings. It is frequently ths ease,
that the poorer class of people are too
proud to be saving; consequently, in the
day of trial, tbey are overtaken by pinch
ing poverty. 1 speak frankly, it is true,
nevertheless kindly. Take the oase of
Ruth. Did she squander her hard earn
ings? Nay, verily, but beat it all out
carefully and earried it home each evening.
spendthrift will squander gifts, and
conations, just as well ss bard earnings.
And be it remembered that this is a great
hindrance to tbe generous olass of com
munitv helping to sopport tbe needy. If
tbey were more frugal, they would find
many more bandfuls let tall for teem.
When Boas finds that Kuth is Irugat ss
well as industrious, she is invited to eat
from his table with the rest of his labor-
era. I bus persons oi true worm are
generally raised up.
3. Tbey muft ne virtuous, a person
of good character, invariably eommaods
tbe respect and esteem of all men, every
where. Industry and frugality are
excellent traits of oharaeter, yet they
dwindle into insignificance,when compared
with that of virtue. "Her price ie far
above rubies." 8ee what it did for Kuth.
After Boas discovered this trait forcibly
exhibited in ber, be did not only let fall
bandfuls for her, and invite her to sup
with his laborers, but put npon her back
as mtaoh elesn grain from his thrsshing
floor asVshe eould carry home. And not
only so, but the next thing we behold is
the great, the noble, the wealthy Boas,
leading her to tbe alter, and the becomes
his wife, for life. So it ever has been,
and eo it will be, the poor, though poor,
eball be lifted np, if they are but indus
trious, frugal, and virtuous. And be it
ever remembered, that, uolese truly needy
persons sre characterised as above deaoribed
tbey are not proper objeets of tbe sym
pathy and support of the wealthier class
of eommunitv. -
4- II. Seeood.as to tie character of given,
or the beneficent. What a man shall give,
or how muoh he shall give.to tbe poor, we
shall not attempt to define. Tbe great
trouble upon this point bas ever been, bow
little ean be given so as not to be bold
guilty by our Heavenly Father. .
1. Tbey must give with the hand, and
not with the tongue only. Tbe band is
of frequent mention in Holy Writ, and of
almost as many significations. It is sym
bolic ef power, preservation, defence,
corrections, goodness, bounty, ie. Prov
idential bounty, or goodness, is undoubt
edly referred to in our present selection.
There is more to be learned front the hand,
than we are woot to ascribe to it We
have long been of tbe opinion that tb( ,
:- .t. ' , at.. .,..1
919 IM talc alius ew av tft
but, from
. .
eareful examination of tbe subject before
us, we are ioclioed to the belief, rather,
that the band and not the eye is tbe true
index of the inner man or soul. Are not
all generous, noble hearted persons, open
bands? While on the contrary, are not
all miserly, covotous men elose fisted ?
Tbe latter elass generally give with the
tongue. They make a very large noise,
but, when pay-day arrives, or any eall for
benevolent purposes, tbey tighten their
purse-strings and clench their fists
lest a mite escape. One of the Devil's
mottoes is very suitable to tbem : "Get
all you ean, and keep all you get" How
was it with Boaz? His orders were that
bis employeas should open tbeir bands, as
they could not let fall bandfuls unless
they did. Roth's humility and industry
in following those reapers, gathering here
and there a mere etalk at a time opened
tbe heart of the wealthy but generous
hearted Boaz, then open came bia band.
Unlock the heart, and tbe band will fly
open.
2. Ilandfuls were to be given whole
hmtlfuli, not balfs. A whole dollar, not
a half. A whole ton of eoal, not a half.
A whole ham of meat, not a half. A
whole barrel of flour, not n half. A
whole bag of potatoea not a half. A
whole dreae not five yarde when ten is
required. How it mast have delighted
Ruth, to fiud, eo often, a whole handful
in addition to ber aooideotal gleanings 1
My hearers 1 men of means I remember,
you too may gladden many a heart in these
trying times. May God iocline you to
search out the needy and supply their
wants out of your fullnsas I j
3. Usndfuls are to fall. Don't stand
quibbling. For instance : "Mrs. 8o-4-so,
I have brought you some sugar, butter,
eggs, molasses, broad, oakes, a pair of
shoes, some elotbiog, &c, but, howsome
ever, nevertheless, notwithstanding, if you
do not exactly stand in need of it, or
them, I will take tbem home again."
Yon miserly niggardly being ,let tbem
ill, and be off. Suppose Boas had
reasoned thus. For instance : "Miss
Ruth, io ease you are really a needy
person, &e., I will try and help you a
little." Did he aot thus ? No. The
very fsot that sbs was there, laboring, as
sbe was, wae sufficient. How many poor
females have been and are still obliged to
go out into tbe open field to labor to
support their families, while their bus
bands or other natural supporters srs
sway helping to guard oar liberties,
defend oar eonntry, aed put down this
wicked Rebellion..' Ob 1 my wealthy
hearers, have yon not a few bushele of
oo to, wheat, potatoes come dry goods,
groceries, or something to delight the
heart of tbe needy ? Search them out,
and God will be faithful to reward you.
4. Donations are to be made of pur
pose. Not by mere accident, as is too
often the case. It must be made a regu
lar business, else it will be looked -npon
in tbe light of merely external diaplay.
How many open tbeir purses, merely
because their reputation or standing in
society requires it Poor creatures 1 "The
Lord loves a cheerful giver." What etn
such givers think when tbey read this
beautiful passage ! I pity them. My
text reads, "let fall also some of the
handfuls of purpose for her." Boas was
a man of the right etamp. Let us all
imitate his generosity so far ss in us lies.
Conclusion. Allow me, without a for
mal close, to hope that this discourse may
be useful. We know like its author it is
very imperfeot, yet with n God-speed
thee, we send it on its mission. May the
receiver and the giver alike think well on
these matters ! Ille Arbatrum Pcer.
