JOSHUA RHODES.
IVaßhlugton’s Birthday is to be Cele
brated.
The secession troubles, which threaten the
dissolution of the Onion, seem to have a pow
erful effect in increasing* respect for and re
newing a decayed desire to honor the natal
day of the Father of his Country. The people
of Pittsburgh, as loyal and patriotic as thoso
safe ° f * ny othaf olly in lbe l: ° ion - have (partak
m ln S of lha general feeling) determined to cele
brate this day with more than tho customary
eclat. J
Do this occasion the military will be out in
fullWoree, including the xluqueate Orovs,
Jackson Independent Blues, Washington In!
fantry, Lafayette Blusi, and Putiburgh Zm
aves. The two companies last named appear
•>n parade Or the first time. The Lafayette
Blues promise to make a Use show, both iu
numbers and appearance, and they havo been
drilling closely in anticipation of their Jrbul.
The Zouaves are also well drilled lor the oc
casion, and will look well in thoir neat uui
lorm, which is very similar to that of the Chi
cago Cadets. With these additions a finer
military display than has been seen on a sim
ilar occasion for years may bo espeeted
For the accommodation of military com
panies from a distance, who are expected to be
present, the hour of meeting has bem changed
-from 11 o'clock, a u , to I o'clock, i- u ,
when the military will assemble on’Water
street, iorm and take up the hoe of march.—
The companies will be reviewed in Allegheny
Oily. We hope the expectations of a fine parade
which have boon raised may be fully realizsd,
as they now promise to be.
The banquet (military and civic) at City
Hail, in the evening, gives promise of being
even more interesting than the parade, if me
may judge from the preparations which have
been made. The hall has been handsomely
decorated with elegant pictures, appropriate to
the occasion. Young's band will be in altend
anet, and the supper is to be served np by Col
Jos. Flicker, of the Commercial BuslauranL
the language of Gen. James iJ. Negley, cor
responding Hocrotsry of tno Oommittee:
" It is not intended merely as a Jubilee of
pleasure lor the young and thoughtless, but the
commemoration of an event which gave
America one of its greatest benefactors, one to
whom is ascribed unbounded publio service,
one whose memory a grateful people should
venerate with chute and tender recollections,
especially when our joy is mingled with sad
ness and the dark forebodings of the present
awaken patriotic feelings in every bosom ; to
contemplate with great earnestness the trails of
character, counsels end measures of one whose
highest ambition was his country's welfare.
flu 1 life has immortalized the day. Tho beauty
sand sublimity of its anniversary should find a
•cordial/espouse io every heart, call out the
youngsad urdont to join in public cclobralion.
*nd speak ia a touching voice to the retiree, to
the aged and sober-minded. The occasion ap
peals to the national pride of every citizen,
especially of Pennsylvania, which has ever
been irite to the Delon. The arrangements for
the banquet are not embarrasad by sectional
Interests. The management has been entrust
ed to Our moat respectable citizens. Mo opper
. tunity has been' afforded tor speculation—the
regulations Insure satisfaction to those ladies
and gentlemen wbo do not usually attend pub
lic festivals.”
That these intentions will be fully carried
out the names of the committed are a sutii
dent guarantee. Everything that can con*
rlribule to the horn fort of the company ha* been
«4soei The hail doors open at 0 o'clock v. j|.,
the banquet will be served up at , after
vWhlcfc toasts, speeches, Ac , will be the order
t 4 the evening. Dressing rooms for ladies and
gentlemen have been provided. Indeed, lbs
arrangements are so complete that none can
/ail of securing the fullest orjuyment, and we
eh.'ll be disappointed ii the banquet is not oue
of C'he uioet respectable and entertaining affairs
evor bC ! <* in the city.
A nun. her of our merchants, desirous of
paying all p"oper respect to the Jay, have
agreed to close their places of busu<t*4, and
from all appearance Washington's birthday
will be better observed b-*ro then for many
years past.
MoE£ About thjc Sswicklit Coupaxi's
Well.—A letter from Franklin, under date
of February 18th, gives some additional infor
mation concerning the well of the £sewlckiey
Company or Fronch Creek. It sayi :
**On Saturday lost wo bad a new proof of
the boundless resources of the oil producing
regfon oT Venango county, while at the well
known as the “dewickley Company Well, "
owned by Judge Warner, Messrs. Flemming,
Tralee, White and o*t>urn, situate about two
miles above Franklin, on French Creek. The
well was bored to the depth of GOt* feet, which
many considered far bdowlhe oil, and It is
said that the company were boring upon the
last fOot, after which they intended to give it
up. ; However,'while the men were at supper,
there was a terrible explosion in the well, toro
ing out a great stream of oil with such force
that it took tire and burnt off the cable which
held the tools at the bottom of the well, with
other things which catuo before the fast spread
ing flames. They finally succeeded In putting
out the fire, and were able to save about 100
barrels of the oil, which is running rapidly to
wast& it is expected that when the company
w prepared to save the oil and removo it
well will yield Beveral hundred barrels per

Wo were present last evening at the drill of
* ® c lttibur S* * Company composed
of the young men of our city, who parade for
v e brut time today, in company with tbo
uquesne Greys. The company was organ-
Jzed shortly after the visit of Lho Chicago
/zouaves, last summer, and then numborod
some eighty members. The company did not
go into drill then nor until about tho first of
i*Mr which time they have been
drilling regularly under instructions. They
expect to turn out twenty live or thirtv mein,
bers on parade to day, exclusive of the officers.
i abort time they have bo.»n
drilling they go through the maoual of arms
and infantry drill very well, and they will,
with their new uniform make a creditable sp„
pearance. The uniform is very similar to that
or the Chicago Cadets, consisting of a scarlet
cap, black enameled front, b ! uc jacket,round
lng from tho cheat, trimmed with a scarlet
and yellow band, ornamented with stool but
tons, and under it a blue sfciit, bLff leather
bolt, with brass plate, star in centre; scarlet
pants, and light leather loggias Tho otti.-ers’
uniform is s cap like the privates, bluo cloth
frock coat, black enameled belt, red s lk sash
and scarlet pants The effect of the wlnli
is tine, and the uniform is decidedly tho hand
somest wo have seen. The command- of ihe
company has been tend, red to J.,ehl. K BJ

Mr l’owoll, of Ky., si«»ko against tho hill.
Ue raid if it was passed it would give the
power of a despot to the Head Clerk of the
Department, and destroy the liberties of the
people.
Mr Fesaondon, of Me., said he thought the
o juato,* vwj drawing un his imagination for
such an assertion. The bill limply gave
power lo tho I'ostrawter-Geoora! to suspend
the operations of the laws, and relieve him of
tbe necessity of any attempt to enforce the
law*. It is most eminently a measure of peace.
The secret la that gentlemen want to force us
lo acknowledge that secession is lawful. It
soerns to bo the simple truth that gentlemen
want lo l*l us have 2; measure of peace, with
out we acknowledge this.
Alter uearly three hours wero spent in ex
ecutive session, the Senate opened the doors
and proceeded to tbe consideration of the mis*
cellaneuus Appropriation bill, passing several
amendments ot tbe Committee of Finance.
41 hvo o'clock ibo Senate took a recess until
sevoD.
iiouriE-Mr. Davis, of Mass , from tbe
Select Committee of live,to whom was referred
the President’s Special Message of the Bth of
January, made a report as to the stationary of
vessels of tbe navy, in such a manner as to
neglect the defence of tbe whole Atlantic
Coast during the prevalence of lawless vio->
lance. The number ships they say, lying in
port dismantled and unfjt for service is £B,
amounting to the aggregate of 874 guns, none
of them could be repaired and put under sail
short of several weeks time.
The House resumed tbe consideration of
Mr. St&nten’s volunteer bill.
Mr. Bocock, of Ya , resumed and concluded
bis remarks commenced yesterday, contending
that the bill proposed to attempt to enforce
the Federal laws independently of the civil
power of Ibo country. Ije could not say what
the border slave States would do in tfil eyefit
of the pwsagfi of the bi 17, but he knew Ibat
Virginia U committed and her honor and her
interests require that she resist tbe intended
warlike aggression on the other Southern
States. If the bill become* a law, be hazzard*
fed the opinion that iu less than three months
all the slave border States, with one or two
exceptions, will be foond standing with the
seceded Stales He argued that tho Repub
lican party is hostile in Its orgari?Z4tinn, b<-
causo Us corner slono U In opposition to tho
extension of slavery, and iU rallying cry
the decJarytion that Southern institu
tions are to be circumscribed and oppressed,
while those advocated by that ptt'ty are to be
extended. In coocluaion he ea:d that the Re
publicans adhere to their platform with more
tenacity than to the Oonstition, and in the
name of the Constitution, which the bill vio
Utes, in the mime of his constituents who were
to injured by if; in the name of his Common
Country, whose peaci was lo bo destroyed, per
haps never to be restored, ho denounced and
execrated the bill.—(Suppressed applause in
the galleries.
On motion of Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, the
further consideration of the bill was postponed
till Monday.
Mr. Adrian, of New Jersey, proiontod a
nir-tnorial from Jersey City, signed by 1,215
persons, 200 <.*f wlmm Republicans—also

The repost of the Committo of Thirty-tbroe
was next considered
Mr. Barrett, of Mo , spoke in condemnation
of the Republican party and entered hia pro
Usl against secession as unjust to the border
slavcholding States. He said those which had
recently c-mfedcratod together ought to have
remained in the Union and therein fought for
their Tights, but the flr*t movement toward
c onion would unite Missouri and all the bor
der SlttU-s to resist it.

«A.v Francisco, Feb. G.-3:40 o’clock P. M.
The exciting topic in ban Francisco is the
heavy failures ot dry goods merchants. Yes
terday the old established house of TaafFep,
MtCahill & Cu., was attached for debts due
San Francisco creditors, amounting to $338;-
OOO; the entire liabilities represent $1,3U0,000
of which some SGOO.UOO were a wed in this city
and the balance in the East. Their assets are
unascertained, but the creditors seem to think
themselves secure. The next failure is that of
boloman 11. Bohn & Co., importing dry
goods merchants. The attachments levied
amount to $090,000. Then followed attach
ments on the retail dry goods store of Thomas
Brady; there is some prospect that this house
will compromise with their creditors and
weather the storm. These failures produced a
panic in the dry goods business, which hes
oeen astonishingly overdone for a year past.'
Taaffee, McUahill & Co., owed ban Francisco
hankers about $200,000 on which they were
paying two per cent a month.
Forbes’ warehouse on the corner of Green

Washinotos City, Fab. 21 —The Becrc«
tarv of the l retail ry to-day, in response to
the resolution of the House, submitted elabor
ate documents in which he says it is believed
that the duties on imports continue to be col
lected in tno ports of entry in Carolina, Geor
gia, Alabama, Louisiana and Florida, and
that vessels are entered and cleared in the usu
al manner. But, so far as the department
has been advised, tbe colloctors assume to per*
form tbeir duties under the authority of the
-Slates in which they reside and hold and :o
coivo duties subject to the same authority.
Only about half the t dicers of customs in
theso M-aies hove resigned their commissions,
while Uo others appear to have' entered on
their duties to the government of these Slates
without considering it necessary to perform
this official ceremony, so greatly has the mor
al tone of individuals been impaired by the
examples of disloyalty to the Union.-
The documents transmitted embrace the cor
respondence relative to the New Orleans mint
Ac. In speaking of tbe general subject, the
Secretary says that throughout the whole
course of encroachment and aggression the
Federal Government has borne itself with a
spirit of practical forbearance of which there
is no example in the history of public society,
waiting in. patriotic hope that the empire of
reason would resume its sway over those whom
excitement of psssion has thus blinded, and
trusting that iho friends of good order, wear
ied with submission to the proceedings of
which they disapproved, would at no distant
day rally under the banner of the Union and
exort tbemslves with vigor and success against
tho prevailing recklessness and violence.
Atch Ison, Feb. 21.—The deputation from

and spake fluently, with great emotion. He
represented 250 of his trine in most destitute

from that part of the country. Gen. Pomeroy
loaded their wagons for them with provisions
which will last them till spring. H
