We have received from the publishers,Messina. D.
Appleton Sr. Co., New York, the first voume of this
valuable work, and after a careful examination of its
contents, we feel constrained to give it our warm ap
proval.
It combines all the elements requisite for a
~ u perior work of the kind. In the first place it is es-
Nentially American in its character; a large space is
devoted to American Biography, Geography, Litera
ture, History and Industry which we could not find in
toreign Cyclopedia, and all'the subjects which admit
of it are presented from an American point of view.—
Besides .ill the matter found in European works of
the same class, we have in this work a vast body of
new material, entirely American. The work cannot
fail to prove valuable to editors and schools, as it is
complete library in itself, and instead of referring to
a number of works, we have here the information wo
seek in ono book; in a condensed, oomprehonsative
and practical form. Another great feature in this
work is its impartiality. So far as we have observed,
the editors have been careful not to express opinions
on disputed points, stating only well authenticated
facts. On religous subjects, although they are many
articles on theological topics, everything of a sec
tarian character is excluded, and the political „and
biographical articles show the same distinguisaing
characteristic; Its style is very entertaining and at
tractive, showing that the numerous contributors in
their various branches have all endeavored to convey
their information in a lively, pl easant manner, form
ing a very readable work. The work is brought up
to the latest p ssible period. The second and third
volumes are now in prose, and will shortly appear,
and the whole will be expe Med as much as is eon
ststent with accuracy. It is cheap, also; almost any
one, by taking it in numbers, can in a short time,
have at their command' a valuable libfary. In this
great undertaking, the editors, Messrs. Ripley A
Dana, have done a great service to the cause of
knowledge. If the succeeding volumes shall equal
the first, it must bo without exception the best Cycle.
prodia extant. We cannot. conclude this article more
appropriately than by giving the following letter
from Archbishop Hughes
NEW YORK, February 13, 1858.
I have read with care the first volume of the New
American Cycloptedia. If the others, that are to
succeed, should exhibit the same evidence of accu
racy and just criticism, I think the learned editors
will have conferred a public benefit at once on their
country and its literature. I disouver everywhere
traces of original and severe study, going to prove
that this is not a slavish imitation of any similar
work. So .far as I am competent to form a judg
ment, I think this work eminently entitled to en
couragement, and I trust the learned editors and the
onteprising publishers will have no reason to regret
the labor and expense which they are bestowing on
their Cyclopmdia, with a view to place in the hand
of every reader a Compendium of Universal Know
ledge which shall be, as by the first volume it prom
lees, accurate beyond_ any preceding publication of
the same kind.

Ma. EDITOR: The remarks in the " Post " a day
or two ago, on the inequality and therefore injustice
of
. the assessment of taxes, are strictly true, whether
they are popular or otherwise, to certain parties in
terested in them.
Not half the story is told. Improved property
within the business parts of the eity, considering the
rents which it brings, is sufficiently hampered with
State, City, County, Poor and School Tax, to say
nothing of extras in the gas and water privilege.
But there are hundreds of lots in the new wards
of the city, and hundreds of acres just on the bor
ders of the city, that, while receiving all the benefits
)f city improvement by capitalists and mercantile
men of all classes, have singularly escaped for years
with taxes that are a mere sham with their value. I
therefore propose the following queries to Asses-
Borg, &c.:
Why hre city lots which the owners will not sell
for less than $l,OOO or $1,200, only valued for taxa
ble purposes at $250?
Why are farms for which owners refuse $l,OOO per
acre, only valued fur taxable purposes at $2OO per
What do Assessors who act in this way, and Com.
missioners who appoint them, understand by the obli
gatiom+ of their oaths
Will they please explain, to maany a curious and
tax- ridden CITIZEN.

port, are new in this city, and have their stook book
at the rooms of the Board of Trade, where they will
be pleased to receive subscriptions for stock from our
citizens. We hope they will not be disappointed,
but that they will receive a liberal subscription in
this city. Tho proximity of the institution to our
city will enable city stockholders to watch over their
interests, as well as if it was located in our midst.
We have no doubt that if properly conducted it will
be as profitable as any of our city banks. The vast
amount of coal business carried on in that neighbor.
hood, together with the general trade of the valley,
we think will be sufficient to employ the means of
the bank to advantage. The books will be open to
day, Wednesday and Thursday.
PITTSBURG 11, PA
Theatrical.—Last evening the play of the "Three
Fast Men" wiu performed at the Theatre for the
last time this season. The audience, though a tol
erable one, w,as not so large as this piece drew last
week. It is not often a piece will draw good houses
here for a week, but this play has been an exception.
Every one who has been in the habit of visiting this
place of amusement has witnessed its performance,
and we presume the play has been seen by ten thous
and people during its representation. This evening
a new bill is offered, consisting of " Satan in Paris,"
in which Miss Lucille sustains the character of the
1:1 1 **' , and five others, and the drama of the "Hot
Corn Girl," in which the younger sister, Miss Helen,
appears as little Eaty, the Hot Corn Girl. This
piece has never been presonted but once in this city,
and we think will be a good card for the star sisters.
It is almost impossible to decide which of the two
sisters is the greatest favorite ; but they are both well
liked, and, coming to our city strangers, they have
won for themselves an enviable reputation.

Weaver, for assault and battery in M'Candless town
ship, on the person of Mary Marjar, were held to
answer by his honor the Mayor, yesterday afternoon.
Jenkin Edwards, the copper thief noticed yes•
terday, was committed by the Mayor for further
hearing.
Wedded Bliee.—Yesterday afternoon, Joseph Woll
man, who resides in Reserve township, went before
Mayor Wearer and made an information against his
wife, Augusta Wulllnzo, charging her with infidelity.
lie also stated that she was then in the house of one
Fairhawk, on Liberty street, a house of ill-fame. A
warrant was issued and the woman brought before
the Mayor. Tho twain said they could not live to

and separate. The matter was finally settled by the
ousband agreeing to let her have her clothes and
some money, and the wife promising not to go near
tbo domicil of her spouse. She had wished to leave
him for sumo time.
St. Patrick's Day.—This day, the 17th of March
.s the anniversary of the birth of St. Patrick, accord
ing to long established tradition. This evening
it will be celebrated at St. Paul's Cathedral, by a
Lecture from Hon. Joseph R. Chandler, of Philadel
phia. Setting aside the worthy object to which the
proceeds of the lecture are to be appliad, the educa
tion and support of the Orphans, the wide spread
fame of the gentleman who has been announced,
should alone Bemire a full attendance. We have not
yet beard the subject on which the learned lecturer
proposes discoursing, but we feel assured that what
ever subject he may choose, he will treat it in a mas
terly style, and make his lecture both interesting and
useful to his auditory.
Slia.—We learn from the "Chronicle" of yester
day that the man who was reported to have been
robbed of five hundred dollars at the depot of the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad, on
Monday, turns out to be in impostor. His wife called
on the Mayor yesterday morning, and stated that he
has not been seen since Monday evening. She is
quite destitute, at the Merchants' Hotel—being with
out a cent of money. °
Horse Stolen.—lnformation has been received at
the Mayor's office, that on the night of Friday, the
sth of March, a sorrel horse was stolen from the
premises of J. S. Brasee, Lancaster, Ohio. A reward
of one hundred dollars is offered for the horse and
thief; fifty dollars for either of the two, or twenty
five dollars for such information of the horse as will
load to his racevery. A description of the animal
can be seen at the Mayor's office.
A Happy Family.—A man named Jeremiah Arm.
strong was committed to the county jail yesterday
afternoon, by Esq. Stevenson, of Lower St. Clair
township. It seemed that ho had been abusing his
wife Virginia, who, becoming indignant thereat,
made inf,rmatiOn before the Alderman for surety of
the peace, when he was locked up to prevent him
trom disturbing the peace of his better half here
after.
Fired Arrival of Spring Goole at Carnaghan's, Al
legheny City.—A very fun and elegant stook of clothe,
new style cassimeres and vestings, furnishing goods,
&c., for men and boys' wear, are now opened, to which
the attention of cash buyers is invited. Terms being
strictly cash, buyers may rely on th• prices being
favorable. •
The Dry Good• Trade in Pittsburgh.
The retail dry goods trade in this city has under
gone great changes during the last fifteen or twenty
years, in its extent, the quality of goods sold, and
the prices obtained for them. Twenty years since ,
our dry goods merchants were concentrated on Mar
ket street in a few email, confined buildings, and al
though that street is still a mart for the sale of this
description of goods, still there are many dry goods
stores in other parts of the city. On Fifth street, for
instance, are some of the largest establishments of
this character in the city. But the greater portion
of the retail trade is still confined to Market street,
and as the younger merchants have replaced the older
ones, stores have been remodelled and refitted, and
that street now exhibits the finest stores in the city.
With the buildings, the merchants have changed
their system of doing business. Where a stock was
replenished once or twice a year, while canal naviga
tion was practicable, our merchants are now weekly
in receipt of invoices of new and fashionable goods,
shipped by fast freight lines. Instead of keeping
goods on their shelves year after year because they
could not sell them at a certain profit, the merchant
of the present day will dispose o; his goods at any
pride rather than keep on hand a large stook of old,
unsaleable goods.
- Of this latter class of progressive merchants is uur
friend C. Hanson Lobe, who is doing business on
Market street, near Fourth, at the sign of the " Old
Beehive." We venture to say that his sales to-day
are at least four times as much as those of the origi
nal proprietors of the " Jew Store." By reference
to our advertising columns, it will be seen that he
has just retarned from the Eastern cities, where he
has purchased a large stock of seasonable dry goods
of every description, fancy and staple, and which ho
is now prepared to sell at prices lower than the same
quality of goods have ever been offered in this city.
We advise all our readers in want of any goods in
his line, to call on him before making their pur
chases. He is a liberal advertiser, for he knows its
value, and a gentleman in every way deserving of
the patronage which is bestowed upon him.
Disorderly.—John Kelly was committed to jail
yesterday, in default of a fine of $lO imposed on
him by Alderman Lewis for acting disorderly and
insulting several females on Pennsylvania avenue.
A man named William M'Gurk, who attempted to
strike the officer who arrested Kelly with a poker,
was also committed for thirty days in default of a
similar fine.
Mayor's Onice.—Yesterday morning there was
quite a respectable attendance before the Mayor ;
some twelve cases in all. Five were discharged, fiv
were committed, and two paid their fines. On od
gentleman, who had been very disorderly, the Mayor
imposed a fine of twenty-five dollars, but as he was
unable to raise that amount he was put on prison fare
for the period of thirty days.
Daily Prayer Meeting.—The success of the Daily
Union Prayer Meeting has induced others to follow
the example. A prayer meeting is now held every
morning, for one hour, from eight to nine o'clock, in
the First Baptist Church, corner of Grant and Third
streets, to which the public generally are invited.
Meetings are held every evening, commencing at a
quarter past seven, in the Fifth street Methodist Pro
testant Churoh, (in the body of the church), and the
sermons preached by the pastor, Rev. John Cowl, are
of absorbing interest, producing a deep and marked
impression. The public aro cordially invited to at
tend.

THIRTY-BIFTH CONGRESS
FIRST SESSION
Yesterday's Proceedings.
eENATE.
An attempt was made in the Senate to come to a
vote on Kansas, which led to the session being pro.
traciod all night. After midnight the following
scene occurred :
Mr. Green declared that unless he'teould have a
distinct understanding that the vote should be taken
on Monday he would go on.
Mr. Cameron was disgusted with the fruitless at.
tenipts. Who is the gentleman from Missouri 1 he
ash ed. He is but our peer. Is he the commander
of the Senate majority that adjourned over from
Tb ureday to Tuesday, to attend a political pageant at
Richmond.
Mr. Green—That is not true.
Mr. Cameron—Du I understand the gentleman to
say that I state what is not true ?
'Mr. Greene—l said Po.
The Vice President called both Senators to order.
Mr. Cameron—The Senator has applied to me
harsh language. I will also use harsh terms, and
say that it is an untruth.
Mr. Greene—You are a liar.
The Viet) President called both of the gentlemen
to order.
Mr. Cameron asked pardon-of - the Sena - ttfor 4av
ing done what the Senate dricfares is n 4 right,
though he still thought he Was not wroils. For
anything I have said to that gentleman, Cam re
sponsible.
Mr. Green denied that ho arrogated to himself. to
dictate to members. The Senator does the injustice ;
he knows he does me injustice. He [Mr. Neon] was
man enough to meet him or any other. The slander
of th e Senator will reverberate on his own head.
The Vice President emphatically called Hie gen.
Heinen to order.
Ma Green said he had said enough to the Senator
in this chamber; out of the chamber he would use a
more appropriate epithet, the -epithet vathieh belongs
to tho West. Ho would nbt infringe upon the
propriety of the Senate; if there is any animosity to
settle it must be done outside. Ile did not go to that
side of the chamber to dictate, but to ask when it
would be agreeable for them to vote? He did not go
individually, but as an agent of the Committee. He
would settle the matter with the Senator in five min
utes, snapping his lingers as he spoke.
Mr. Cameron said the Senator's remarks had no
effect on him; ho was able to take care of himself.
He repeated that all this discussion had been pro
tracted by them.
The passage between Green and Cameron produced
complete stillness in the Senate.
Mr. Green exhibited the most irritation of the
two. Mr. Cameron was a cool and unprejudiced
looker on, and seemed to have the best side of the
ease. The difficulty, which was a mere interlude,
subsided as rapidly as it arose, when quiet was re
stored.
Mr. Doolittle, speaking to a motion to adjourn,
took occasion to refer to the evils of night sessions,
which, beside obstructing business, produced un
pleasantness that lessened the dignity of the Senate.
At fear o'clock there were numer us motions, and
the ayes and nays were called on each, lasting till
live, when Mr. Benjamin said this is no ordinary
condition of things. For the first time in the annals
of the country a minority dictates to the majority,
and stops the business of the country. He suggested
that the majority leave the hail, leaving a message
fur the minority to call them back when ready, and
carry on the public business. This was revolution ;
he wanted the country to know it.
Mr. Halo said the resolution was begun so long
ago as 1848, when the Oregon bill was debated.
Mr. Fessendon defined his position. He accepted
the responsibility before the country.
Messrs. Wade and Simmons spoke in favor of ad
journment, and Mr. Toombs against it.
Mr. Wilson moved a postponenieut till to morrow.
Ha thought no one would gain much by its going
before the country. The Senator from Missouri gave
a sacted pledge that there would be a fair opportu
nity to discuss the bill. Well, up to this time there
have been twelve speeches for and only eight against
the bill.
The Senate continued in session till half past six
o'clock, when an adjournment till twelve o'clock was
carried.
The Repablican caucus meets at 11 o'clock, to de
cide t_n the course to be pursued.
Preliminary and important business was then
transacted.
Mr. Hale made a statement of an agreement en
tered into by his friends, and acquiesced in by many
gentlemen of the opposite side. The agreement
end: We agree that the debate shall close ; the
question to lie taken on Monday next; but if it op.
pears necesoary that the sessions be protracted to
allow free discussion, they shall be extended to such
hours as we may dictate.
Mr. Bigler considered the agreement in accordance
with the views of his frienas.
Messrs. Green and Cameron apologized.
Mr. Green said that after consultation with a num
ber of friends he would make a personal explanation.
He was said to have used language last night which
was understood as personal. If so, lie now with-
that the clause of the Lecompton Constitution pro
viding•for its change in 1864, if the people choose,
they may prevent any change until then. Oar re•
publican ancestors held that the power that could do
an act, could do an sot to undo it. Senators have
called the Constitution a compact, and a compact can
be dissolved by mutual consent. He here cited sev
eral authorities in support of his argument, but why,
he asked, quote books, wh.... xe have the power in
our own charter. He her I.,ta i from the Declara
tion of Independence, Sc It is the right of the
people• to abragate and f ,rto sew," o. Senators
had called this doctrine revolutionary; against whom?
what mighty sovereign? They 1.19V43 forgotten gov
ernment' were made for mon, not men for them.
the essence of a Republican government is that the
people can change it peaceably. Mr. Pugh now ad
dressed himself to the apostles of popular sovereignty
and asked if the ninety thousand inhabitants of a
state who form a constitution can bind and impose it
as an inexorable law upon two millions it may be
inhabitants in that state, when it shall have expand
ed beyond the wildest dream of its founders. That
popular sovereignty ho would call the authoritiy of
dead men's bones. Mr. Pugh here quoted Judges
Catron and Daniel, and also Daniel Webster in sup
port of his views. Referring to Lecompton, he refut
ed statements that the President or Judiciary can
ever interfere with whatever construction the people
of Kansas may choose to place on 'their constitution.
The supreme court had decided that it has no power
to say which of the two instruments is the constitn
tiot of a state, but, said Mr Pugh, my principal pur
pose was to state the proposition that the President
of the Lecompton Convention is bound to complete
his trust before it comes before us, which I hope will
be the case before the vote is taken. He then con
cluded by speaking for the admission of Kansas.
Mr. Stuart of Mich. said he would then take an
early opportunity to reply to the Senator from Ohio.
The Senate then adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRKSENTAIINFS
Mr. Stevens introduced a bill for the construction
of a wagon road from the navigable waters of Mis
souri to Columbia river. Mr. Burroughs, a bill

ST. Louis, March 16.—The New Mexican mall of

Kit Carson has concluded a treaty between the
Utuchos, Utabs, Arapoboes and Pueblos. They

WesniNuTos CITY, March 16.—The Republican
Senators held a caucus this morning, to determine
.on the proceedings on the Kansas bill. While they
prefer that the debate be conducted during the usual
hours, they will consent to evening sessions, if neces
sary, but they do not want the votepken this week,
.being desirous that Mr. Douglas be heard on Mon
t:lay, he being too unwell, it is supposed, to address
the Senate before that time.

There has lately beau brought to our notice a medicine

family use, is not overrated by the host of recommeWatious
It has. Our advice is, for all troubled with Indigeation,Ti

word for it, relief will be experienced.

DLLs MAD/at,—The reputation of the Medical Discovery,
in curing all kind of humors ' is so well established by the
unanimous voice 9f all who have over used it, that I. need
not say anything on the subject , as the most skilful phyd•

animous in Its praise. .
In presenting the Medical Discovery to your notice, I do --
it with a full knowledge of the curative power. in relieving
all, and curing most of those diseases in which you ate MI
fortunately so liable. That most excruciating disease to an
affectionate mother,
NURSING SORE MOUTH,
Is cured aa if by 'a miracle; your own temper In restored

and the fibres of your body become relaxed. Then follow a

have nearly run out, discovered, while In the East 11,-
dies, a certain cure for Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis,
Coughs, Colds, and General Debility. The remedy was
discovered by him when his only child, a daughter, was
given np to die. He had heard much of the wonderful
restorative and healing qualities of preparations made from
the East India Hemp, and the thought occurred to him that
he might make a remedy for his child. He studied hard
and succeeded in rearving his wishes. His child was cured,
and is now alive and well. He has since administered the
wonderful remedy to thousands of sufferers in all parts of
the world, and he has never failed in making them cam
plotely healthy and happy. Wishing to do as much go od as
possible, he will send to such of his afflicted fellow-be ings ea
request it, this r. !pa, with full and explicit direction for
making it up, anu anecdotally using ft. He requires each
applicant to inclose him one shilling—three cents to be re
, turned as postage on the recipe, and the remainder to be
applied to the payment of this advertisement.

confined to his bed. De was eventually cured by a pre•

scription, given by a mere child while In a state of trance,
has cured everybody who has taken it, never having felled
ones. Itis equally ns sure in cases of ill's as of Dwane.
