the Legislature- If the requisite appropnauon be
not made at this Ktasion. it will be imporeible to

however, no psrt was helved by the Company

WasHnaTTOJi, March fl, 1849.
, The c&biaet-. has been nominated to day. The
only changes’are, that Mir. Ewing goes into the
Homo Department, pnd Mr. Jacbb Collamer into
the Post' Office Department. Mr. Coltamer has
i been a tiimber of the House for the last four year*.
| and is enable man and a good speaker. In* said
that this change has greatly comforted the Post
Office Clerk*, who, ever since the appointment oi
Mr Ewing has been talked of, have moved and
breathed* eaten and drunken, and slept m a cold
.went They feared, and not without a good deal
of reason,that Mr. Ewing,being himself a thorough
workman, might make a clean sweep, and intro,
dure an entire new act of hands. But I think that
' Mr- Collamer will do the business us thoroughly.
' ihough perhaps not as rapidly. U is among the
i {stories of the day. that a deputation of Philadelphia
Independent Taylor men wailed on the President
to day *itb a memorial, or petition, or verbal ap
pear or something of that sort, and reminded him
of the Ltppard and South Carolina letters, and ei
pressed the hope that in the distribouoo of the
spoils of office, ho would not allow his administra
tion to b« governed by a spirit of political prefer
ences! He replied that be well recollected the
purport of those letters, and that he meant to b«
guided by the principles therein announced to itu
world. I cannot say how mdeh confidence is to I
be place<Tin this tale, nor bow much it amounts I
to, ifilbe all true, with all iUembeUlshmenUh which
I I take the Liberty-of doubting. ,1 may as well men
tion, that one of these embell||binenis is, that the
President said that he should not permit any man’s
politics to be inquired into, who presented himself
os un applicant for office.
The nominations were not acted upon to day,
because the Senate haa.ttol yet appointed iU stand
ing committees, without the aid of which not
customary to perfect, any business. The message
in which these nominations were communicated,
was handed m by Cel Bliss, who, for this occasion,
acted as the President’s Private Secretary, though
it is not supposed that be will occupy that post
permanently. Indeed he cannot. It will probably
be (given to Mr. Van Allen, of New York.
The Senate to day had a discussion of an bour
over the case oi General Shields.
Mr. Douglass moved that he be sworn in. leav
ing the question as to his eligibility lo be deiermin
ed in the regular course of investigation, npon the
report of the commiUee ug which it might hr re
ferred.
Mr. EU-men opposed this, but it seemed ta b«* tb«
general sense of the Senate that such a cour*
was the most consistent with fairness toward
General Shields, and the consideration which i
due lo the §Late be represents.
After some debate, the motion of Mr. Douglas:
wu to, and General Shields loot the oalh
and hiß seat as a member of the Senate.
On motion of Mr. Butler, of South Carolina, it
was resolved to refer the subject lo a select com.
milter of five Senators, to be appointed by the
air. They will he appointed 10 morrow at twelve
o'clock. , ¥
Mr. Tartiey. oi' Tennessee, moved that to mor
row at tbe same hour, the Senate proceed to elect
its standing committees for the 31st Congress, and
it was so ordered.
.A committee of two —Senator* Miller and Atcb
uon—uvre appointed to wait upon the President,
aitd inform him that the Senate was organised and
ready to receive any communication he might tl«
tiire to make.
The massage by the hands of Colonel Bliss was |
the reply of Ibe President to this intimation. ,
Your readers will want to know abont the grand
balls. Well, they took place. The President at
tended two of them. The regular Taylor Whig,
and genuine festival, was celebrated in a
large temporary budding, erected for the pur|>ose,
neat to the CSiy Hall, the time honored head qnar
,er. of the Washington Whigs. The haste with
.which this building had been constructed, and us
consequent fragidity. and incompleteness were la
tal to the fete. The room was immense, bul the
crowd was suffocating and unendurable. In the
early part ol the evening there was a blare offe.h
'aw. beaut*, and grace; but towards midnight the
rout became a mere mdiacnminato jani. Th.re
was but one entrance or outlet, and through that
was the way to and from the opon air. tiro supper
and the dressing rooms—sty lights on Ibe roo>
were opeDed, and the correntn or fresh air which
descended, relieved Iho longs, bul brought down
showers ot lallow or sperm, as the case might be,
on the dreaaes of the ladies, and the coals ol ibe
moo. The ladies fretted and acolded,aad the men
turaorf their lieada away for politeness' sake, and
swore roundly that it was too bad. Prom this
scene General Taylor, accompanied by Mrs. Bliss,
proceeded to the rivel ball at Jackson Hall, wh.re
he bad more room and more ease, and where, c >o
aequenlly, he made a longer alay. Bul lam gel
ting prolix. Good night. Justus

There is a terrible rumor afloat to-day. It '*

The Message of General Taylor has been the

A GHOSTSTORY
THE MILLER OF THE BROK.ENaTR.AW.
BY KUXTtt WRIGHT, OP BOSTON CHBOWJTYPE.
AmoDg the wast western solitudes, about the j
loneliest sort of place, more desolate than the brown ,

Through a vast plain of ibis sort gullies the Broken;,
straw or Clarion river,.one of the thousand drains
of the great western slope of the AUeghames.—Vou
see a treah green strip traversing the dead level,
as you trace the wear* turnpike, and when you
reach it yoo perceive that it is produced by white
pine-tops, the roots of which trees are drinking the
I living waters some one or two hundred te«t lower
| down in the gully, nestling amidst ihe immortal
greenness of the laurel. The traveller would think
bo lonely a place the last m the world for a miller, 1
and still more so for a minister. Yet in this nar

Parson Morehead was a man of same might
every way, worked a small larm. burnt lime, »tu

copl Hugh Neil, who was n doubter and man of the
world, there was not a roan in his pan«h for twenty
aides up and dowo the Brbkeustraw who was not
either a pious member of his church or hopefully
inclined. Huge, ibe miller. wa« an exception, a
swearing, nooffing sort of man, but then his wile
was an ornamenl to the church. A< Hugh was
much the richest, and decidedly the most geoe
ro U >. man in the congregation, this was a mut
ter of great concern to the Kev. Thomas More
head.
We say Ned's wife was—«t the date of our ston
she was no more. She had died and was just bur

This w&i- a thunder clap in clear suy to Pardon
Morehead He had always preached with the n\-
most faithfulness against Universalists, and he could
not understand why the Lord had thus permuted
the wolf to break into bis fold. He did not alleud
the funeral evea as a neighbor.

As Hugh Neil stood on his own door step, m a
state of utter distraction about to raise the latch, his
attention was arrested by something ghmerine tar

His eyes were riveted upon it. Surely it was

He cautiously opened* and closed the door,
