Appointment of a Senuestrator for the Pitts
btrgh, Fort Wanye and ;Chicago Rail-
road, In behalf of the Domestic Creditors.
As will be seen by an article elsewhere, Mr.
Moran, President of the New York and Erie
Railroad, and Mr. Von Hoffman,a Wail street
broker, representing the holders of Pittsburgh,
Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad bonds in
the East, secured on Wednesday, in the Dis
trict Court of the United States for Northern
Ohio, at Cleveland, the appointment of J. K.
Edgerton, Esq., Vice !President of the road,
as a receiver in their behalf.
The domestic creditors of the Company in
this city, learning of this appointment, and
fearing for their interests, applied, through D.
W. Bell, Esq., to Judge lampton, in the Dis
trict Court, yesterday morning, for the ap
pointment of a sequestrator,to receive and dies
horse the proceeds of the road in their behalt.
The application was made on the part of Messrs.
Park, McCurdy & Co., who had obtained a
judgment against the corporation for the sum
"of $l,BOO, the execution upon which bad been
returned unsatisfied, backed by other creditors
of the road. Judge Hampton granted the ap
plication, appointing T. Haskins Du Puy, Ac
ting President of the road, a sequestrator, and
requiring him to give bonds in the sum of
$300,000 for the faithful performance of the
duties imposed upon him.
In the afternoon, John H. Hampton, Esq.,
Solicitor for the Company, appeared in Court,
an& offered J. EdJar Thomson and George W.
Cass; Esqs., as security upon the bond. The
Court thought the bail sufficient, and ordered
the writ appointing Mr. Du Puy to be issued,
but said' the gentlemen would be obliged to
come into Court this morning and prove their
competency.
Here are two conflicting interests to be re
conciled, possiblyinvolvins the question of the
jurisdiction of the respective courts. This will
not occur unless the receiver undertakes to ob
tain possession of the road, when his efforts
would be resisted with all the authority of our
A meeting of the Board of Directors will be
held here to-day, to take measures rendered
necessary by the principal action of the East

There appears to be considerable rivalry among
inventors in reference to the best mode of pro
pelling city passenger cars with steam. Al
ready we have noticed three or four models
that have been constructed, and yesterday we
saw a car for the same purpose, at the estab
lishment of 4f. W. Baldwin & Co., which is
to be used on the Fort Wayne and Chicago
'Railroad, where it passes through the suburbs
of the latter city. The car is in form similar
to the cars now used on passenger railroads,
but large enough to seat forty passengers. A
portion of the front end is partitioned off, in
which will be placed an upright boiler, and
also affording room for the engineer. The en
gine and machinery for moving the cars are
quite simple, and attached to the bottom of the
_ car on the outside, the cylinder being upon the
outer edge, and. the piston connected directly
with the wheels, there being only two on the
front, so as to allow for turning short curves;
the valves are operated by a link motion. The
tank for water to supply the boiler will be un-
der the seats of the car, having attached an
airangement for receiving the exhaust steam,
yvfiich will not only prevent the usual puffing
noise emanating from locomotives, but can be
sea heating the car in cold weather. This
- • ,•
':Cr,a It is thought, will be a perfect success, and
- -hs soon as completed . will be tried on the Ntir
- ristown and tiermaniown Railroad, a
view, if practicable, of introducing them in
the place of the heavy and expensive locomo
tives now in me. It is stated that ten of these
cars can be run so as to make one hundred and
thirty tripsper day, as cheap as the running of
train of eight cars with the usual sized loco
;motive attached.—Philadelphia Ledger.
• • PrITSBIIRGII TELEAME—MES. WALLER'S
"MEG 31mturtr.s."— Mrs. Emma Waller,
undotibtedly the greatest actress now in the
country, will appear to-night in the character
of Meg Met-riles, in the excellent and popular
play of Guy Mannering. In regard to her
impersonation of this character, we cannot do
Witter than•to copy the following notice of her
performance of it at the Walnut street Thea
tre, from the*Philadelphia Prrss, of Nov. 16th.
The editor says:
"Great curiosity was excited by the an
nouncement of ' Guy Mannering' at the
Walnut, for 'Guy Mannering' means 2.11ey
Merri/es, and Meg Merriles, in the minds of
most of the audience, means Charlotte Cush
man. No one had a doubt but that Mrs. Wal-
ler's genius would be fullyequal to this great try
ing part, but all (unconsciously; perhaps) went
with the idea of making a comparison between
the two great artistes ; the one now almost of
the past, the other fortunately of the present.
From the first moment of the gipsy's appear
ance all ideas of comparison were, however, at
an end; memories were all lost sight of, for
Mrs. Waller , is so utterly different that it is
even out of the question to decide which is the
greatest. Both are grand inspirations—inspi
rations of two women of genius. To begin
with the beginning, the make up is the most
extraordinary transformation that the stage
ever produced. Who would recognize the
majestic Geraldine under the fearful. features,
the old, broken form, and the scanty rags of
this fearful vision? One magnificent touch of
naturOirs. Waller has infused into this fear
iveird prophetess, the remembrance of her
days of womanhood, when she was not forever
divided from hope and home. Mrs. Waller
conceives that the power of the gipsy is the
power of the mind. That has preserved her
authority and fearful influence; but age has
marched for her, as well as others, on its in
exorable course, and her voice, accordingly, is
week, broken and trembling. This, however,
is a performance that cannot be analyzed ; the
impression left is so fearful, so awful, that,
instead of being inclined to analyze, one feels
as one would after some unearthly apparition.
is impossible, seeing Meg only once, to de
sc4b4l the; feelings which enwrap one like a
charmed atmesphere. It ought to be played
again. The success of the piece will suggest it
to the management. The whole piece was ad , -
mirably cast.
To return to Mrs. Waller—for Meg haunts
fis Yet—as we get from the charm, S•ie begin
think over particular points. Mrs. Waller
makes 'Meg a much more aged woman than
she has before been depicted; that, however, con
trasts satirically with the mental strength and
despotic power she holds. It is needless to say
that Mrs. Waller's death scene was harrowing
and - awfully true. Her power in - depicting
death is well known—tbe Dutchess of Malt
',dwells on every memory. Thus the fall of the
jaw, the glaaing of the eye, the distortion of
the features, the last convulsive struggle of the
muscles in agony, were all marvellous to be
hold. We repeat, this is indeed a fearful and
wonderful parfornaanee."

Coaarma.—We are in favor of the largest
liberty to Young America, believing that 'When
consistent with public safety their sports should
be allowed to proceed without interruption,
buttes our attention has been called to the matter
we would suggest that a check be put upon the
sledding nuisance, which is graver than at first
sight would appear. At every corner we find
groups of boys with sleds, and we meet them at
every few steps on the side-walks. Wherever
nature or the City Regulator has left a down
grade on our streets, they congregate in num
bers with their miniature sleighs,
and we find
sidewalk and street worn smooth as glass by
their frequent descents, rendering it enterely
unsafe for a foot passenger, unless rough-shod,
to walk either up or down. Should any mis
guided individual essay either the ascent or
descent, his chances are good for finding a
level by having his pedal extremities tripped up
by one of these juvenile pleasure seekers,
coming down upon him like an Alpine ava
lanche regardless of the destruction ho may be
the cause of. Like the fable of the boy and
the frogs, we pedestrians might say to the
former: " This may be fun for you, but death
to us." We fear that the assistance of the police
msutlbe invoked in this matter, before the public
can travel the public highways without fearing
for their life or limbs, merely because Young
America must have its sport.

TUE HUBBARD SQUASH.—Last year, Mr.
J. S. Gould, Warden of the Allegheny City
Poor House. procured from Marblehead, Mas
sachusetts, some seeds of the Hubbard squash,
a vegetable, which has become celebrated for
its excellent qualities. He has, cultivated them
on the Poor House farm during the past sea
son with great success, and found them admira
bly adapted to the soil and climate of Western
Pennsylvania. They are better than most of
the varieties of squashes, and .very. prolific.
When cultivated right. eight tons to the acre
is a not unusual product. As an article for
domestic use they cannot be beat. Mr. Gould
will be prepared to supply gardeners and farm
ers - with seeds of this excellent vegetable for
the coming season.
A GALA DAY PC A LTOON4.—The gas works
in this thriving young railroad town are nearly
completed, and will be in working order by
next Tuesday. Arrangements are being made
for a grand celebration of the event on that
day and evening. Excursion tickets will be
issued by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
good from the 14th to thi7 Bah, inclusive, from
this city and Harrisburg. Brass bands, mili
tary, , and several civic associations will be in
attendance. Preparations for a general illu
mivation and torch-light procession are already
being made, and the citizens seem bent on
making the occasion one long to be remem
bered.
BRILLIANT AlerEoe..—A magnitleent meteor
was observed by many citizens of Johnstown
on Tuesday night, illuminating for an instant
the dense fog which prevailed at the time In
a few minutes after its disappearanee a loud
report was heard, followed by a shock that
was very sensibly felt in many of the buildings
of the town. quite a number of citizens ran
affrighted from their houses, and not a few re
paired to the rolling mill, impressed with the
belief that a terrific explosion had occurred
there
LUCKY HUNTERS, —A short time since,
Washington Manor and John Worley, of New
Market, 'cork county, returned from a hunting
tour in Union county, Pa., with six door, ono
of 'which weighed one hundred and eighty
pounds. They had been absent about two weeks,
but in consequence of the rainy and inclement
weather they were precluded from hunting
about half tho time. The represent the deer

AN ODD FELLOWS' REGALIA BALL, the
proceeds to be devoted to the relief of the wid
ows and orphans of Day Spring and Zocco
Lodges, will bo given at Lafayette Hall, this
evening. Young's Band will be in attend
ance, and the -figures" called by Col. Jene
Scott. As the object of the ball ts of a very
praiseworthy- nature,-and all the arrangements
of a superior character, a large attendance of
members of the fraternity will doubtlps be
drawn out.
DA:NUEFLOUS —The St. Clair Street Bridge is
in a bad condition for pedestrian?, the walk
being covered with ice and snow. It would be
well for the company to have it sprinkled with
ashes. The planks which lay across the steps
at this end, for the accommodation of the work
men, are also somewhat dangerous a gentle
man ascending the steps a few nights since, in
the dark, cut his head severely by ctiming in
collision with them, while endeavoriug to al
low some ladies to pais.
NOMINATION.—The nomination, by ballut, for
a Democratic candidate for Alderman in the
Third ward,takes place this afternoon and even
ing. There are eight or nine candidates in the
field, all of whom have agreed to abide by the
vote cast to-day. The contest will be an ex
citing one, and when so many are anxious for
the nomination, the successful candidate may
well congratulate himself.
INFAmous.—An attempt was made the other
day to throw the Pittsburgh and Cleveland
Railroad train off the track by placing a largo
stone across the rails near Bridgewater. A
son of the ticket agent discovered the matter
accidentally, and removed the obstruction in
time to prevent the desired accident, and per •
mit an approaching train to pass on its way in
safety.
NEA.RLI: Fi:rrettrn.—The new German

THIRTY-SIXTH CONGRESS
WAslit.Novosi, December B.—HousE.—The
proceedings were opened with prayer..
Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, rose to make a
speech, when a running discussion occurred on
the pending question whether it was relevant
to make speedies, as the previous question had
heretofore been demanded and seconded to cut
off the discussion on Mr, Clark'siresolution and
Mr. Gilmer's substitute. .
The Clerk subsequently rose to put the ques
tion as proposed. Whether it was competent for
him to decide questions of order pending the
the election of Speaker.
Mr. Miilson, of Va., objected to a citizen,
elected by a former House, a subordinate offi
cer presiding over this body.
Mr. Grow, of Pa., agreed with Mr. Millson,
he would not. favor a violation of the express
law of Congress.
Mr. Davis quoted from the speeches of Mr.
Seward, to show the dangerous sentiments he
avowed, to distract the country, and accom
plish the overthrow of the South. To say,the
labor of the two sections was conflicting and
irreconcilable, was a declaration of war, and
hence the South was alarmed and• looked to
their :defense. He earnestly appealed to all
parties to put down these treasonable designs.
In alluding to the remarks heretofore made by
the Republicans, he said armed men have been
sent to the South to kill their people, and de
prive them of their property. Could the South
be patient under these circumstances ° Could
they be blamed for taking means for their de
fense's We of the South want peace. Let
the North stand by the compact. Your fath
er, Seward, is a traitor, and deserves the gal
lows. (Applause from the Southern side.)—
Virginia has hung the traitor Brown, and if
they get hold of Mr. Seward they will hang
him. ( Laughter and applause.)
Mr. Morris, of Penna., said that, occupying
a perfectly independent position, he was at
liberty to vote on all questions according to
his sense of duty to his country. He was op
posed to all unnecessary agitation of the sub
ject in slavery, and did not wish to discuss it
unless if came before thorn in a legitimate way.
Thi , wicked administration had evuntenanced
ever act of violence and fraud on the people
of !tenses, and brought into Congress a Con
stitution fraudulent from beginning to end,
and which would nut stand the test of an ex
amination. His friend Sherman had stood
nobly firm for the rights of the people against
the government, standing up fur law, order,
concord and peace, and for this the gentleman
should have his vote as lon g as there was ally
probability of his election. He knew the
gentleman was a friend of the protection of
domestic industry and would so erganize the
committees: and would secure the fair:censid
eratiou of that question. Ho knew Mr. Sher
man to be a man of just temper and mind, and
incapable of perverting the rules into an in
strumert of despotism. An objection had been
urged that Mr. Sherman had signed a recom
mendation for the circulation of Helper's book.
He, Mr. Morris, did not sign it, nor had he
read the book. Su far as he understood it, it
was written by n native of a Southern State,
almost exclusively addressed to Southern men,
end ,bowing the experience of Southern Merl
as to the value of slave labor. Gentlemen
magnify the book and make it a formidable
engine of mis.bief to tb., pewee of 411:4 cone.
try. Had riot his friend des:lam-I-that he was
etea;rist that book SO far as it ,on terniplia,l
an infringement of the eenstitotienal rights et
the South What had the blouse to do with
Helper's bock' Were they, as a ve n, v , of
Je,uits, to expur e :e the literature of the be. , k.
and Were they to net eemor, of every
diary It was a tri , st extraordinary
proceeding.
Mr. Moore, of Alabama, knew there wcri•
men in the North, as true to thu Constitutien
es thre , of the South, rind alien it was said
there was in the North no sympathy for John
Brown, it was a libel The papers of the
North wore full of denemstrations of sympa
thy, and some were in mourning for Brown.
Mr. Greeley, n prominent organ of the Re
publican party, said in his paper that in future
time, Brown's name will he held in glory an
honor So far as we know the sentiments
those he repn-sented. he but expres•ed his de
liberate conviction, he:when said that the success
of a purely sectional party would virtually be
a dissolution of the tinion. If the Republi
can party could be defeated the Union could
be preserved ; but if cell a party was to suc
ceed the . ‘ootIVT thus Union is dissolved the bet
ter. The South were on the Lb•fensive. if
thev could not got their rights In the Utm.,ti
amf under the Constitution, they were pre
pared to have their rights out of it.
Mr. Corwin, of Ohie, suggteitol that the
House take the rouse reverted to in the House
when the New Jersey eontested election case
prevented a prompt organization Ou that
occasion the venerable John Adams was elect e d
as Chairman, until a Speaker was elected. It
had been his fortune to WitlleiA bore every one
of the cases to which reference had been made
in debate. He was hereduring the nullification
times, end in ISA. If the gentlemen could
now summon to their aid the calm and wise
course which animated gentlemen in those
times, ell unpleasant feelings would be re
moved. Applause.) He bed heard with in
finite pain, the repeated threats that if the
Republican patty war successful at the Pre,i
dential election, the South would bus willing to
encounter the fatal consequences of a dissolu
tion of the Union.
MZESIZE3
Tho political discussion was continued,
Messrs. Stanton, Sherman and others partici
pating. The House then adjourned without
any action.
SENATE..-111r. Slidell, of La.. gave notice
of his intention to introduce a bill inaklng,ati
propriations to facilitate the negotiations for
the acquisition of Cuba.
Mr. Johnson, of Tennessee, gave a similar
notice of intention to introduce a Homestead
bill. Several other notices, were given; one for
the construction of a railroad on Pptinsylvania
avenue.
Mr. Mason's (of Virginia) resolution came
up for consideration.
Mr. Trumbull, of Illinois, resumed his re
marks, showing the importance of inquiry
relative to the sacking of the arsenal at Lib
erty, Missouri. The seizure of an arsenal
recently, is regiireled as a matter of so great
importance, yet the 'resident, in his message,
never alluded to the Aelzuro of the arsenal at
Liberty, in the Stain of Missouri. A resolu
tion was adopted in lEffiG, calling on the Presi
dent for all information in the departments
relative to the affairs of Kansas, yet the report
of Captain Leonard had never been sent to the
Senate.
Mr. Brainard, of Tennessee, differed from
both of these gentlemen.
The points of order were then withdrawn.
Mr. .Davis, of Mississippi, was in favor of
the continuation of harmony. He holievedThe
Government wanted saying. He was no dis
unionist per 3e, and would make as many
sacrifices as any man to preserve the Union,
but notwithstanding his devotion to the Union
there are evils greater than the Union itself.
Ho insisted on a strict observance of the con
stitution, in order toloccure to every section its
just equality and rights. It was the duty of
all conservative patriotic men'to rally to the
support of the Democracy, the only national
party, to put down the Abolition spirit. There
was, notwithstanding what has been said to the
contrary, great cause of alarm to the country'.
Wel should act instantly, or it NAP be altogether
,4;
Mr. Trumbull thought the gentlemen were
entirely rPPItat:W 1 ,fs to the principles or views
of the Republicans, and he would endeavor to
enlighten them in a calm and candid manner.'
He did not like to.hear them use the word
“South" in thils matter. Not more than one
twentieth part of the people of the South are
slavaholders, and that class should not arrogate
to themselves thst.:thoy are the South. The

Tllis territoriar question is not settled. Tho
Democratic party unsettled it. He went on to
FIRST SESSION
allude to the term "Black Republican," which
had been used.
Mr. Yulee said the term "Republican" hav
ing been consecrated by the father of his
country, a sectional party had no right to ap
propriate it. He would not call them black,
but leave it to themselves to supply the proper
designation.
"Mir. Trumbull replied that they call them
selves Republicans because they advocate the
principles of Jefferson. If his party had made
any departure from those principles, he would
condemn - - such a departure. The 'fathers of
the old Republican party were the models from
whom their principles emanated. The very
words in the platform to which the gentleman
from Florida had objected, • were written by
the hand of Jefferson.
Mr. Yulee—To create, and not destroy a
free government.
Air. Trumbull—Yes, and we perpetuate a
free government by maintaining the principles
we advocate. The other party call themselves
Democrats, when their legislation is all shaped
for the interests of a alaveholding aristocracy,
comprising only one out of sixty of the inhabi
tants of the United States.
Mr. Trumbull underwent a lengthy cross
examination on the part of Southern Senators.
Mr. Johnson, of Tennessee, obtained the
flour, but the hour being late, the Senate ad
journed till Monday.

Austria is reported to have raised another
difficulty regarding the European Congress,

a general and simultaneous disarmament.
