Spring appears to be opening io reality.
My hours of duty are now very long say
from 7 io tbe morning nutil bear mid
night : bat yesterday I took an hour's
troll a! on 2 Mark-it and Second, the
streets of Harrisburg. Young and old,
rich and poor, white and black, were all
out enjoying tbe day. Babes in their
carriages crowed and gesticulated most
xnltiogly. Canaries in their cages
aeetned to eing sweeter than ever. Chil- j
dreo never appeared happier, as they I
trolled along their boops or danced with
the untaught grace of nature in perfect
joy. Ladios could hardly look any love
lier, as tbey swarmed out with all tbeir
dressy glory on, and languidly, yet with
sprightly step and lustrous eyes, lingered
under tbe mellow, melting rays of tbe
tun, and drank in tbe sweet air of Spring.
Even the cats and dogs if we might
judge by tbeir contented looks yielded to
tbe gentle influences of tbe inspiring
season. Tbe erasses acknowledge tbe re- j
vivice forces of looz-dormant nature, in
tbeir most winning richness of hues. Tbe j
Wild birds sang, and the frogs croaked, as

Tbe Senate was engaged until after ten

new Senators seem to be in favor
substantially restoring to the Treasury
not only the mon y due it from the Pcon'a
K. R, Company two years ago, taken
therefrom by the Repeal Bill, but to re
impose a fair tax npon that and all similar
coporations. Tbe House Bill tax was
opon tonnnife, irrespective of ability : tbe
Senate amended it by making tbe burden
lie substantially upon the profitt of the
Company. In this form it passed to
third reading by a decided majority.
This morning, tbe officers of the Senato
presented Speaker Lawrence with an ele
gant gold beaded walking-staff an honest
token of their personal regard for bim,
and of their estimation of bis efforts, as a
presiding officer, to preserve order, and
maintain me oignity oi tne Senate ol tbe
n-eysioue.
Scranton has a charter for Bank
under tbe Free Banking Law. No other
new Bank wis incorporated, and very lit
tle if any extension of banking capital.
Tbe general impression seems to be that
the present system of banking most give
way to another basis. No shakey bank
could have beeo re-inoorporated.
Tbo bill for the payment of a half
month's wages to tbe militia wbo rallied
against the Rebels in September last, bas
passed. It was originally designed to pay a
mooth's wages, but Lamberton, (Cop.) of
Clarion, raised such a howl about the
dreadful expense of the "half month they

yielded, and left it in that shape paying

In the Senate, Speaker Lawrcnce,in ro
signing, stated that one fourth of
winters of bis actio life bad been spent
in Harrisburg, and he now closed his
Legislative oareer. John P. Penney of
Allegheny was choseu Speaker for the in
terval between now and tbe next session
and becomes Governor in ease of the
death, removal, or resignation of Gov.
Curtin, whose handsome and thoughtful
announeemeut that bo wi.l not be a candi

I happened in tbe House just as Spea
ker Cessna was thanking the officers for
their presentation to him of a splondid
cane. The Republican Members bad pre
sented the Cbief Clerk, Mr. Ziegler, with
' a similar int uiorial. Mr. Cessna made an
cloqiicn' and impressive oration at dos

the upward advance of man in the raco of
progress. These sentiments were heartily
applauded by the Republicans and by the
crowd, while tbe Copperheads looked sul
len and listless a few even refusing to
vote a compliment of thasks to Speaker
Cessna for bis fairness. Hopkius of
Washington made some impressive general
remarks. Twenty-three years ago (before

To the Senate aud House of Representa

Gentlemen: In taking leave of yon
at the close of tbe session, I think it
proper, under existing circumstances, to
go beyond tbe usual formalities.

at a period of great publio disiractioo,

which soon culminated in tbe breaking
out of the Kcbellion,wbich is still raging,
Tbe country had so long slumbered in
unbroken tranquility, that we bad in this
State almost forgotten tbe possibility of
auy violation of our domestto peace.
Even our militia laws had been suffered

or interests of others, or io any way to

had thriven, tbey were unable to realize
the designs of wicked and abandoned liberate opinion, and shall openly, can

oeseary to convene it again early io May,

State on a footing adequate to tbe emer

done. Five hundred thousand dollars bad
been appropriated at tbo regular session ,
for military purposes, and to that sum j
was then added authority to borrow three

Tbe State has not been insensible to
tbe sacrifices which her sons have made.
No effort bas been spared by her authori
ties to secure tbeir comfort and wclfarw.
Under legislative provisions to that effect,
her sick and wouudud have been followed
and cared for, and, when practicable,
brought borne to be nursed by tbeic
friends ; and the bodies of the slaio, when
possible, he been returned for burial in
the soil of tbe State. Tbe contributions
of her citizens, in supplies of luxuries and j
comforts, for all ber volunteers, have been
almost boundless, and nothing bas been
omitted that could encourage and stimu
late them in the performance of tbeir holy
duty. They have felt, upon every march
and in every camp, however desolate tbeir
immediate surroundings, that the eyes
and hearts of the loved ones at home Wero

Tbe result is, that Pennsylvania is act
ually in a position on which it is my duty
to congratulate you, as her representatives.
Notwithstanding the immense drain of
ber population, her industry is thriving at
borne, and so far as it may not be hurt by
causes over which she bas nocootrol, must
coutiuue to prosper. Her finances were nev

that tbe labors which 1 have necessarily

apprehend that a much longer oontinu
ance of tbem might so break it down, as
to render mo uuable to fulfill the duties
of my position. It is to be added, that,
. ... - .
as the approaching season will probably
be the most eventful period in tbe history
of tbe country, I will be able with more
effect to discharge my duties, if I avoid
being made tbe centre of an aotive politi
cal struggle. Under these eircumstanees.
it has pleased the President of tbe United
States to tender me a high position, at

and that proceedings on mortgages execu

Tbe last bit of Parisian news is that
Slidell has offered the person who controls
tbe French press five hundred thousand
bales of cotton to favor the Southern

(the Southerners) to publish all they

The "Democratic' Commissioners of
