opinion of some of-the' firemen, like the play
of :flansiet with nothing More, tangible than

we presume the election of-last. evening may
be regarded in the same light--es an offset to
the counts pursued by the city fathers."
We hope that the'inatter may not assume

may prevail when the- joke is "played out.'
The' resignations,. however, were tendered in
all seriousness, and in, the retirement of Mi.

A* Utpntiint-8111.
A bill WAS recently read in the HOW! of
Representatives, resting Justices of the Peace,
throughout the Commonwealth, with the pow
er to take cognisance of, and investigate all
geeswhere incendiarism, or eases where in
cendiary_attempts have been made, and all
eases where loss by fire has occurred in the
manner following: That upon information
being made before any of said Justices by the
prow officers of any insurance company, or
any other person Interested, that inch incen
diary attempts harebeen made, or such losses
by fire have occurred, it shall be .the duty of
such Justices to proceed to investigate the
-case with the object of finding out and con
victing the offenders, and shall make public
the cause of such fires ; and the said Justices
of the Peace are hereby vested With the same
powers to take compulsory testimony in such
eases as the regular criminal investigations.
And - firtli - er, That any person interested, or
any insurance company .through its proper
officers, shall have authority of instituting
and conducting such investigation in the same
manner and with the same.,rights as a plaintiff
in a civil snit, and be liable to the same costa
where no criminal prosecution shall result
from such investigation.
The great difficulty attending the detection
and punishment of incendiaries, might, in a
measure, be remedied by the passage of an set
similar to :the above. Insurance -agents, in
cases where suspicions are entertained as to
the origin of fires, could satisfy themselves by
demanding an Investigation.
Lloyd's Topographical Map of the
Stale - of .Kentucky.
Just when everybody that reads the news,
if there is to be any understanding of what is
read, must have a good map of Kentucky to
refer to—Mr. Lloyd, of New York, who has
already given the public some excellent and
timely maps illustrative of the war in the
Southern States, has published a large and
carefully prepared MAP OP TUE STATE OP KEE
sucev, which will be fouid an indispensable
companion in these days, when our eyes aro
turned upon As advance of the columns
our army in that State. -This map is en
graved on steel, and colored in counties ; it
shows- all the mountain ridges, roads, rail
roads' railroad stations, canals, creeks rivers,
county seats, towns, villages, mounta in pass
es, fords, etc., not only in Kentucky itself,
but in considerable portions of the adjacent
States,—including, for instance, the State of
Tennessee, 30 miles south of Nashville. It
is stated to be constructed from actual surveys
just before the war commenced. The price is
very low, considering the excellent style of
the work, being only 50 cents per copy or four
copies for $l. It may be had direct from the
publisher, J. T. Lloyd, New York, or-from
the booksellers and periodical dealers, who
are the publisher's agents in the principal
cities and townsof the United States.
St. Valentine's Day
Friday next, the 14th inst., will be St. Val-•
entine's day, and if we may judge from the
displays in the shop windows, the custom of
sending mieeives to ewiethearts has not yet
become altogether obsolete. Comparing the
large number of coarse caricatures to the scant
supply of " tender" and " sentimental " val
entines' exposed for sale, it is evident that the
custom has degenerated into a vulgar mode of
offering offense and insult—au act of which no
lady or gentleman would be guilty. The
origin of the day 13 thus given:
"St. Valentine was a presbyter of the
church, who euffered martyrdom at Rome, in
the year 271, , during the reign of Claudius.
Valentine's day received that appellation from
hisbeing sent upon the day consecrated to him,
the proper name of which is St. Valentine's
day. The custom of sending -these missives
•is said to have arisen from the alleged fact
that upon that day, the 14th of February, the
birds choose their mates and hence the cue
, tout is followed by Imp/edged youths.
Salt in Throat Diseases.
We *clip &it following from au exobange,
which our readers will do well to recollect, as
it may be beneficial to them :
"In these days, when diseases of-the throat
are so prevalent, and in so many cues fatal,
the use of common salt is recommended as au
effectual remedy.. We commenced by using it
three times a day—morning, noon and night.
We dissoived a large table-spoonful of pure
table salt in about half a tumbler fall of cold
water. With this we gargled the throat Most
thoroughly before meal time. The result has
been that, daring. the entire winter, we were'
not 'only free fromthe usual coughs and colds
to which, so far as our, memory extends, we
have always been subject, but the dry, heat
ingcough has entirely disappeared. We at-'
tribute this satisfactory result entirely to the
salt gargle."
Supposed infanticide
About noun to-day, a partj of bop die
.vend the body of a child on the bank of the
river, a short distance below the month of the
canal, in the First ward, Allegheny. It was
tied up in.a sack; to which a couple of bricks
had_ bees fastened, for the purpose of sinking
ft. It was also-evident, from -the.nstare of
the place, that thebody had been' hauled there
a few nights before, by a party who had been
engaged in cleaning a privy. The Coroner
was notified of the affair, and is now engaged
in its investigation.

Wright and -Bright.
Ex-Governor JOSEPH A. WRIGHT, of In
diana, has been spoken of as a probable
successor of Daunt; as a Senator from
Indiana. The Ciniiitnati ammercial runs
the following parallel between Watour
and Samar, which is very truthful. We
should be well pleased to see Mr. WRIGHT
in the Senate, although he has always been
a Democrat:
Though Bright and Wright have both
been known as Democrats, there are no two
prominent public men more unlike each
other. Bright is a dishonest man—a spec
ulator in politics, and has become rich• in
the public 'service. Wright is an honest
man, who has served the people faithfully
.and to their profit, while he has remained
poor. Bright has always been the toot of
the most ultra clique of Southern poll
. ticians and conspirators. Wright has pre-
Served his self-respect by a degree of in
dependence unusual in partisans, and has
never been led by the nose by the late po
litical task masters of the nation, who,
being defeated by the people, art in arms
against the Government. Bright has in his
social life been the sycophant and imitator
of the vulgarian bankrupts and spend
thrifts of the Cotton State Self-nominated
aristocracy. Wright is distinguished as a
plain man, who, while sincerely hospitable
and courteous, has never aped the follies of
fashion, but has deported himself as a gen
tleman and as a Democrat. At home he
has been' public spirited, and his threful
ness in promoting agricultural science and
popular education has bean widely felt and
generally recognised. Abroad, as our
Minister to the Pruaaian Court, he has
been one of the truest and . best represen
tatives of American character since Frank=
lin. Bright is a traitor from instinct—
principle he has none. Wright is a pa
triot from instinct and principle. The ap
pointment of Wright to honor the seat in
the Sexist°, which Bright dishonored and
was expelled from in disgrace, would be
an act of political propriety and poetic
justice.

Mr. Fenton wished to state, in justice to

juriously on the Committee, was applicable to
Mr. Davis, of Pa., said that it was &to to

Washlngton'S Farewell Address be road in
one or either Souse of Congrosi by the Pres!.
.. • •
dent of the Senate or Spatter of the House in
the presence of the Senate, or by the Speaker
of the House in the presence of the members
of both branches, and that the President and
his Cabinet, the Ez-Presidints, Judges of the
Supremo Court, representatives of Foreign
Governments, officers of the Army and Navy,
and distinguished citizens, be invited to at
tend; and the proceedings of the day, in
cluding the prayer, be. printed in pamphlet
form and largely distributed ; that the Ad
dress, or perilous of it, be read at the head of
the armies and on shipboard, as the highest
incentive to our brave defenders. The peti
tioners also pray that Congress pass a joint
resolution totarry.the above into effect..
Mr. Crittenden said that the petition was
signed by the present! and two preceding
Mayors of Philadelphiai and by, a thousand
others, embracing the first men in the city,
such as Ingersoll and Dallas. There is one
name which stirs every American heart—it is
the name of Washington—a name which sug
gests to every mind the highest virtues of the
American citizen, the name honored through
oat the world and which commands the pride
and homage of every honest heart, and in the
day of our trOublo we should avail ourselves of
its happy influence. Mr. Crittenden, in con
clusion, offered a joint resolution to refer the
petition to aseleet committee of five, and that
they report thereon.
Mr. Lovejoy, of 111., proposed an amend
ment, that at the same time the Declaration of
-IndependenCe and Secretary Stanton's order
to the armyi after the 'battle of Mill Spring,
be read. Agreed to—yeas 77; - against 57.
Mr. Crittenden's resolution, as thus amend-
ed, was then adopted.
Mr. Dawes, of Mass., presentoa the memo
rial of George B. Simpson, accused- by the

The memorial was referred.
On motion of Mr. Sedgewink, of N. Y.,Vhe
House took:up and passed the Senate joint
resolution authorizing a detail of naval offi
cers for the service of the War Department.
It authorizes the detail of three competent
officers for the inspection of transport vessels
and other services as may bo designated by the
War Department.
Mr. Dawes-ealled up the report of the com
mittee in which it is said that the only evi
dence of the election of Mr. Seger, was the
certificate of the Judges at Haraptott,Jogeth
or. with the -preclamation of 06T. Tierpont,
declairimg him elected. Sugar based his claims
on the twenty-five votes cast for hiM, con
tending that it wee strietly a legal election,
and the only inquiry did.vhe memorattet
receive more votes than any other Candidate?
Mr. Seger had frankly stated to the commit
tee, that besides at Hampton, the polls could
not beepened in the other precinctst of the
Congressional Districts, for the reason that
they were : in the pessession of the rebel
forces. The committee say there was not a
full compliance with the Virginia election
code. They do not, however, rest their ob
jection solely on that, but ask, if only twen
ty-five persons voted for Mr. Segar, the polls
not being opened throughout the distrioa for!
the IVlOOll$ stated, what evidence had they!
that if a full vote had been taken there would.
not have boon an overwhelming vote against
him? !
Mr. Seger spoke in defence of his claims
at every threshold. The question was raised
whether loyalty should be stiffened and treas. ,
on recognized, countenanced and rewarded ;
whether rebellion should drive loyalty to the
wail and there transfix it, and whether rebel
lion can rob any citizen of Any privileges un
der our glorious Constitution. As to twenty
the votes only being given for him, he had to
say that opt a single citizen could be deprived
or his right. lie sear here not in his own, but
in behalf 01 that part of his oonitituenoy
who, liviug within eight of the Stars and
Stripes flying from Fortress Monroe, when
the storm dashed_round them, clung to the
ship of state.. lie appeared here with the
help of lied and a good conscience to vindi
cate their rights.:
Mr.-Noell and Mr. Diven spokoln favor of
Mr. Seger's claim , to the seat. Mr. Dive*
said the only question with him was, Isiah+.
Seger a loyal man. and whether the loyal
people of ,the district desire him to represent
them-hero E and of these facts he was Mal.
fled.
The further consideration of this subject
was postponed till to-morrow.

went to the bill providing for the purchase of
