POLITICAL—The Committee of the Sawyer
Convention, appointed for the 'purpose of pre
senting to the Republican voters a statement of
the difficulties in the Third ward, and the con
sequent split in Convention, are out in an ad
dress, asking the support of the Republicans
for their nominee. and reviewing the proceed
ings-
of the late deb:gate meetings and Convert-.
tion.
The City Executive Committee held a meet
ing yesterday morning, and appointed two
committees, one to wait on Mr. Sawyer and one
on Mr. 'Wilson, with the following propositions:
First to take a vote in the different wards di
rectly upon the candidates—the gentleman
receiving the highest number to be considered
ke'candidate of the party. Secondly, in case
the first proposition did not prove acceptable,
to take the vote of thb Third ward over again,
and let the delegates succeeding determine as
to whether Mr. Sawyer or Mr. Wilion should
bathe candidate. Thirdly—To call the Con

difficulties might not be adjusted: Neither of

JIMA"' DAIIAGES AO&INAT A RAILROAD
COiIPANT.-A verdict for damages in the sum
pf 10,000, was found last week in Philadel
phia, in the case of O'Donnell vs. the Reading
Railroad Company. Plaintiff took a seat in
a car and tendered the conductor a $3 bill in
payment of his fare, which was pronounced
counterfeit. He borrowed the amount of his
farn.from a friend and paid it,but was notwith
stiiiding ejected from the cars and obliged to
walk home some distance in a snow storm, keep
ing him from his business. These facts were
admitted, but it was urged that O'Donnell bad
been violent and abusive to the conductor, dis
turbing the passengers, and rendering his ex
ilsion a duty. This is an important verdict,
,Atowing how far officers of railroad trains
may go.
FIRE AT OistaNiC—During Wednesday
forenoon a fire originated in a back building
attached to the residence of Christopher Zug,
Esq., of the firm of Zug Painter, at Oak,
land, a short distance above Pennsylvania Av
er*, which was destroyed, and also the green
hOuse, to which it communicated. By the se
tbie exertions of the neighbors the flames were
Prevented from injuring the main bailding,the
furniture of which, however, was much dam
aged4p attempting to remove it. Mrs. Zug's
clothing took fire, in attempting to 'cheek the
flames, and her arms were badly burned. The
loss' is about $l,OOO, on which there is no insu
rance. The fire caught from an oven in the
ont-huilding, a frame kitchen, above which
was a balli4oorn.

faaioa.
ot to fortunate Lewis Credel, a Teuton,
wit., boarded with bis countryman, Frederick
C. Rapp, and left.. Returning to settle the bill
had 'some words with his late landlady, upon
which he kicked her. The husband was indig
nant and sued Credo! before the same magis•
trate for assault and battery. The latter was
arrested, and being unable to appease the anger
of Rapp, be was held to bail in the sum of $3OO
to answer the charge at the next term of Court.
THE ART EEHIBITION.—Morton's Hall is
crowded nightly with visitors to the splendid
gallery of pictures now on exhibition there,
and all Who go express their unqualillexl admi
ration of the collection. It is the general im
pression that as a whole the collection is equal
to any on exhibition in the Upsited States, and
surpassing many. Among thlu first pictures in
the gallery are some by Dhlbey, which attract
Universal attention. The catalogues are now
!Tidy and for sale at the door. We hope to
see as folf an attendance while the ball contin
ues open.
Ai cumwre.—On Tuesday, the mate of the
steamer Mohawk, Jacob Miller, while engaged

THIRTY-SIXTH CONGRESS
FIRST SESSION
WASHINGTON Doc., 21.—Housx—Mr. Da
vidson, of La., said hn sew no use of the indul
gerice in harsh language, find certainly had no
desire to wound the feelings of any gentleman.
He liked to have the freedom of speech for him
self, and therefore he would never tresspass-on
that right as applied to others. It wm a grave er
ror to say that the South wants to force sla very
into the territories. All they ask,and which they
are determined to have, is that their rights shall
be rejected in the common territories of the
country. He belonged to the National Democra
cy.. If troubles exist in the party, let them be
settled inside of the organiiation. He was wil
ling to let the by-genes be by-gones. While he
wanted the House to Organize, would not Con
sent to do it by the election of a man whose
mantle is stained in 1)10,0 spilt by sedition.
He never believed in the doctrine of seces
sion, and did not believe in it now, but when
the people are aggrieved, and their rights
trampled on without redress, there was no oth
er remedy. It was no longer the politicians spirt
here to manufacture public opinion who talk
fib ut this gracious evil ; it was the whole
Southern heart, which comes u i with one voice
to say, "Stop! go no further. You have passed
the Rubicon. You must stop whore you are,
or the objects for which the confederacy was
fOrmesl must cease." He ... would candidly tell
gentlemen that unless such raids as those o f
John Brown shall be stopped there will be war
between the North and the South. Ile argued
that the Republicans were here as a party to
strike down the rights of the Southern States.
He read front the comp endium of helper's honk
to show the( it. ad v ises that the infernal question
of slavery must be disposed of and absolutely
abolished, as the true policy of the South. In
view of these kind of sentiments did not John
Brown believe that Mr. Sherrnan and others
would 'stand by him ? Was it expected that
his constituents and the State of Ise/Wane
should consent that this Union be controlled
by the party which advise the slaves to rise in
the South and commit murder? He charged
that the Representatives of the North, who ad
vised this thing, have not hail the nerve, in the
face of a decent community, either to endorse
or gainsay the teachings of that book. He
had been asked whether he would consider the
mere election of Mr. Seward as stitticient eau.,
to secede from the Union, and had answered
certainly not. He would wait for an ovigt
act. But that overt act had bees eourifitittea,
arid Seward is accraiory Refer,: John Brawn's
raid, for which, before God and high heaven,
the Republicans are responsible, his ardent
love for the Union prompted him to hope that
the bitter cup would pass away. hot climate.

Smith. which would do much to rebuke the en
deniers of Helper's book.
Mr. Etheridge ignored all political and geo
graphical lines, and until Mr. Burnett could
rally the Dotnocratie forces ho could not ar
raign him who was elected in defiance of that
party. (Applause.)
Mr. Burnett spoke of,the love of Kentucky
for the Union, which was applauded, and be
asked his colleague, Mr. Anderson, why ho
did not vote for Millson ?
Mr. Anderson replied that he was born and
raised o Whig, and had voted consistently for
an American. and would do so to the end of
the contest. He would not vote fur Millson,
beenuSe he was a Democrat and could not vote
for Sherman because he was a Republican.—
Further ho (Anderson) was in favor of the
Kansas Nebraska bill, and could not, therefore,
vote for Millson, because Millson was against
that bill. (Laughter and applause.)
Mr. Burnett, in reply, said Mr. Ether-ides
was here at the time; and, with Millson, voted
against the Kansas Nebraska bill, and yet his.
colleague could not vote for Etheridge as Speak
er. (Laughter and applause.)
Mr. Hill, speaking with much energy, said;
when he yielded the floor to Mr. Burnett, he
did not expect the latter would stigmatize the
organization to which he belonged, as the mis
erable Know-Nothing party. Ile had voted
for Mr. .Millson because he respected that gen.
Heinen for voting against the K'ansas-Nebrits•
ka bill, and because Mr. Hinson was incapa
ble of appointing any white-washing commit
tees. He (Hill) came intro againSt the oppo
sition Democratic party, and with sentiments
rather peeulinr,and rather more Southern than
those expressed by Mr. Burnett. But he would
never, so help him God, consent to destroy the
structure under which we live, merely because
a man with objectionable political principles,
should be elected to the Presidency. He would
wait till seine overt act was coma fitted before
he would comieut to strike the fatal blow. rue
wins C.mstitutional noun and no other. Hie
remarks were enthusiastically applauded.
Mr. flurnett apologised by saying; If In the
heat a dehnto 'no had used the is:premien,
-miserable Know-Nothing party," ho would
take it back.
Mr. Hill said ho camp here with a viow to
breaking up both tho Republican and Maio
