The proposition introduced into tb.(
York Serrate to levy toile upon the trauNi orte
Lion over the greet eat ansi 'ke•At of
roads in that State tadeeonticed by the loading
papers of that State as equally iuconeiatent
with sound principles, and with wise policy."
The proptised)utpcist is precisely ,4ttilikr in it-'
nature and effects to the Tioinag, tax upon the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and the. argttin..lo,,
which ,would apply agailot th.• Ni.tv York
actruent would operate with equal force in
favor of rope,al in our own State. The New
York Evening Post in speaking of this (pies%
tiun says :
" A special tax on any one kind of business
is unjust in itself. A special tax on transport
tation,and indirectly on travel, is the most op
pressive--next, to a tax tin light and knowl
edge—which the human wit has ever devised.
"The right of way," said one of the wisest
statesmen New York ever produced, ' ie the
right of the million : the sovereign hoick it in
trust, and can exercise it only for flit it benefit.
end has no right to make revenue out of it."
For the state of New York, the itajustice sod
oppression of such a tax is only exceeded by
its impolicy. The natural advantages of this
city and State, if not. destroyed by legislation,
will make it the merchant, the carrier and the
banker of the New World. The geographical
position of this city in referenc.• t o th e
eurrenta which affect navigation -the mag
nificent advantages of its harbor --the II ud
eon, with its hundred and fifty mile.- of the
best river navigation in the world the pass
br plain from Albany to Butialo by which the
continuous range of the Alleghenies, from
the Great Lake= to the Mexican Gull, is
cloven down almost to a level, anti through
which the head navigation of the liutison iy
connected, by canal ,and by railroad, with a
thousand miles of Lake navigation, alotost
as cheap at that of the •ocean these are cir
canuttauces which mak- our destiny.
Are we to impost special tax on trans
portation through that pass ? Are we to
a discrimination duty on the natural advan
tages which constitute the prosperity and
greatnessof the city and State of New York ?"
The same course of reasoning toutaiss nrt•-
tandis will apply in favor of the repeal of the
Tonnage Tax upon the transportaion over the
Pennsylvania Railroad. The object to be
gained iu New York is .the repair of the Erie
()anal —a design similar in its native to that
which originated the Pennsylvania Tonnage
Tax. This is a hurthen which it is not right to
impose upon the great interests of trade and
transportation. The Post. sums up its arg.o
meut as follows :—lf the Erie Canal is to t
repaired,
1. Let the money to do it be got honestly
2. Let its expenditure be strictly confined t
the object of making the Erie Canal a good
navigation ;
And, above all, let the State preserve it,
private interest 1.3 that work, by making it
work better, and not by making rival , : i n th
state worse, and giving rivals out of the stat^
an advantage over both, thus practically
using its sovereignty to divert transport and
trade from our state and city.
This kind of regard for the interests
railroad in our sister States, which are con
fessedly the rivals of our own great wad, will
have great weight with our legislators, in
forming their opinions and shaping their at:-
, Lions upon the bill now before them, for ilia
repeal of the Tonnage Tax.

In speaking f this high-handed affair, the
l'hilad , Iphia Ledgcr states that one of the
grossest attacks on the independence of the
judiciary, which has ever occurred in the
United States, has just been witnessed in
Massachusetts We allude to the removal of
Judge Loring, by Governor Banks, at the re
quest of the Massachusetts Legislature.
As the facts of the case may not be known
to all of our readers, we will recall them The
fugitive slave law, as passed in 1850, is, as all
will concede, the law of the land. Even those
who question its policy or righteousness
admit this. Judge Loring, under this law,
was called upon to remand a slave to bondage.
lu obed'enee to his oath of office,he sent the
slave back. For this he became obnoxious to
a majority of the people of Nl,ssachusetts,
and has finally, as we have seen, been thus re , ..

MARCH 2u, 1658
In order to form a just estimate of this re•
moval, we must remember what the office of
It judge is. It is not legislative. Ile has, for
example, neither the right to make laws, nor
even the right to pronounce on their wisdom or i
policy. It is not executive. Ile cannel en
force the lawsas a sheriff can, by calling out '
the posse comitaius. - His business is either to
interpret the laws, that is, to decide, when
they are obscure, what they mean, or to admin
ister them, that is, to pronounce, in doubtful
cases, when certain facts come within the
scope of the laws. Under the fugitive slave
law, the latter is the principal c apacity in
which a United States Commissioner acts :
and Judge Loring was United States Commis-
In doing what made him so unpopu•
lar, and what has finally caused his removal,he
merely performed what was an imperative
duty, and I r neglecting to do which he
would have violated his oath of office and so
perjured himself.
The practical effect of this removal is to in
timidate judges from the honest performance
of their duty. It is to make them amenable
to the politics, the factious, the phrenzies of
the day; to substitute popular opinion forju
dicial integrity. it, in every State, or in ev ,
cry district, the prejudices of the hour are to
take the place of sound legal learning and hon
est jurisprudence, there soon will be an end of
justice. We might as well abolish Courts at
once. The moment the bench becomes the
tool of party, that moment it ceases to answer
the end for which it was instituted.

Ftgtiling the Tiger
Some years ago, I was in a gambling-tionse
n Cincinnati, a silent looker-on at a game of
faro. In those days, such operations were
carried on rather openly, and almost under
the eyes of the authorities, with unbarred
doors, so that any one could walk in, either in
the capacity of a better or of a spectator. In
the latter capacity I found myself, near mid
night. when the door of the den opened. Just
as the game began to flag, and riA a sound
was heard but the click of the checks, and the
rattle of some dishes a darkey was placing on
a table, in walked a tall, rawboned, country.
looking chap, in a grayisatinet coat and a coon
skin cap. He walked right up to the only
vacant place at the table, and, drawing from
a side-pocket alenormous calfskin wallet,
which looked ast, might contain at least a
thousand, in fives and tens, addressed the
dealer :
"Look here, mister, I'm going to Eight this
here tiger up to the nines ! Understand me,
1 alters tight to the death—that is,till I break
you or you break me."
"Very good," said the dealer, •'you are one
of the kind we like to deal for." And hi,
eyes fairly danced at the certainty of deplet
ing the pletlaoric , ,looking pocket-book.
I;ut, undirstand we," continued the
rough customer. "there is one thing you must
first agree to ; and that is, II you break me,
you must give me money enough to carry me
home.
"I'll do it," said the "leg."
~You all on you hear, gentlemen," S id
••rough," •` that 1 have the word of an hon•,
°ruble sporting man, that if he wins all the
money in this yere pocket book, he gives -me
money enough to cagy me home."
"Yes ! yes I y-s ! responded the entire
party.
Her•' the darhey announced supper, and
the keeper of "the tiger" announced a recess
for halt an hour. crowd went into the
wood things prepared, and 'rough" was not a
whit behind the rest. lle dived into the yen -
ison, the oyster pie, and tto "chicken hues,"
until he conld eat no more with any degre • of
safety to himself—not forgetting to wo , h down
th • whole with liberal potations of brandy.
If.efreoliment over, labor bade fair to coin-
mence in right down earnest. The dealer took
oil his cent, rolled up his sleeves, and seated
himself. Rough" squared himself at the ta
ble, and again drew the ponderous wallet.
All eyes were now turned up .n him: for spec
tators, patrons of the establishment, and oven
hankers themselves looked for a tall game,
"Rough" drew from one of the pockets of the
wallet a greasy and rather suspicious•looking
five dollar bill, and called for the worth of it
in chips. After scrutinising it a moment, the
dealer tossed it into his drawer, and passed
over a stack of ten chips to "rough." tie
next gave the cards sundry scientific " flirts,"
placed them in the box, and_announced " All
ready I" "Rough" placed his ten chips on
the ace, and the deal went on, Some eight
or ten cards were drawn out, when an ace
came to view on the top of the box, and the
dealer immediately put ten more chips on
top of "rough's" pile. "Rough" let thetwen.
ty chips lay upon the ace, and it was not long
before another one made its appearance, but
this time it fell by the side of the box, 'and
the dealer "raked down" the entire pile. lie
then waited a few moments in expectation
that "rough" would open the pocket•boAt
again, but that individual continued resting
his chin on the palm of his hand, and gazing
abstractedly on the ace.
"Well," said the "leg," "ain't you going to
bet any more ?"
"Nary red—l'm broke—fiat!" said "rough."
The "leg" laid back in his chair, and in a
tone of the most profound astonishment said
"the deuce you are ! And I pledged myself to
give you money enough to carry you home,
in case y ,u got broke !"
"You did that same, old boss."
"Where do you live ?"
''At Brownsville, up the river."
" W hat will it cost to take you there'
"At the present stage of water, 1 think 1
can get up for about fourteen dollars."
Such a shout as. went up at this juncture
was never before heard within the wall of a
faro room, while; with great good humor the
"leg" counted rout the fourteen dollars.
"My friend," said he to "rough," "it is not
every day one meets a patron like you. Go
and help yourself to another drink of brandy,
and a cigar. Whenever you come to town
again, give us a call. Call often—you will
find the latchstring out. I wish you a safe
journey. Give my respects to your wife and
the children. By, bye !
"Rough" don't shrink one iota from this
raillery, but took the proffereddrink and cigar.
"I say," said he, as he hald the door ajar, "I
wish you better luck with the next green...look.
ing customer that comes along; but before
you make such a bargain with him, jest ascer
tain where he lives, and the size of his pile .'"
And so saying, he disappeared amid the guf
faws of the crowd, in which the dealer him
self heartly joined.—Philadelphia Sunday Dis

Mr. Douglas' objeet being to give the State three
rep*esentatives, in accordance with actual popula
tion, instead of with incomplete census returns,
which only give two and a moiety.
Mr. Toombs, and others, proposed technical

The Senate then went into Executive Session with

HOUSE OF 13.6'PHESENTATIVES
Mr. Stephens proposed an early day for the con
sideration of the Senate Kansas bill, for he thought
it was best to haye an understanding, so that niihody
would be taken by surprise.
Mr. Campbell said that the House had been debat
ing upon questions involved fur nine years and nearly
all this session. The Kansas question blocks up the
public as well as private, and he was therefore ready
to meet any question to day or to-marrow, with or
without any further debate. He thought it due to
the interests of the country that the House should
come to a vote. He suggested that by common con
sent, they agree to take up the bill to morrow.
Mr. Washburne, of Illinois, objected, on the ground
that the house was unusually this ; when there was
a full attendance, they could agree to do so by com
mon consent.
Mr. Stephens having been asked by several to in
diorite the day, named next Tuesday week.
Mr. Campbell suggested next Tuesday.
Mr. Stephens thought that too short a time
Mr. Campbell said that the House baying agrecd
ou the first Monday of Juno for adjournment, it
would be imp - ssible to get through the public busi.
nose by that time, unless the earliest possible day he
fixed for the vote on the Kansas bill.
Mr. Montgomery had no doubt th , st if the matter
was not now pressed an arrangement might be made
satisfactory to all pasties.
Mr. Stephens withdrew his suggestion f..: the
present, in the belief that such an agreement could
he made. When the day is fired he would an
ri,unce it.
The House went into Committee on the Deficiency
Appropriation bill.
Mr. Grow spoke of the injustice and oppression of
the attempt to force on the people of Kansas a Con
stitution against which they bad protested in the
most solemn f rms. The people were lulled into se
curity by executive promises that the Constitution
should he submitted; but they were betrayed by
fraud and violence, and now the last act in the drama
is sought to be consummated. Mr. Grow believe.'
with Jefferson that resistance to tyranny is obedience
to God. Those who submit to usurpation are worthy
to be slaves. ,While an attempt is made to force iin
Kansas an odious despotism and propagate human
bondage, there can be no peace in Kansas.
Mr. Reilly maintained the le (ality of the proceed.
lap attending the formation of the Lecotnpton Con
stitution. Be knew not what his fate would be t. r
voting for the Kansas bill, but if his crin,itiw e ,,, 4
think he has done wrong, they have the ri4itt to sell I
some other to take his place.
Mr. Stephens announced that he will onAhorsda
nest, at one o'clock, move to take up tlloS Senat
kaums bill.
Mr Davis, of Indiana, inquired by whom the ar
rangement was made.
Mr. Campbell explained, saying that variou4 gtn
tleuieti had been consulted
Mr. Grow , aid he had nu objacti..n to Mr. Stephens
making the motion ' • that was so fir as he, Mr. Grow,
and Ilia friends could go to-day. If all oonnent, on
Thursday the bill can be then taken up.
Mr. Stephens said that Mr. Grow correctly under
stood the matter. No motion was to be made until
Thursday. He designed nothing more than to move ,
on Thursday next, to take the bill from the Speaker's
table.
Mr DealE, of Indiana, sA..i LIII, was satiefeetory to
biui and those with when he
Mr. Montgomery wished tx know whether Mr.
Stephens w old movp to take up the bill wordy
diseusion, or put it on its passage
Mr. Stephens replied that he intended to move the
previous .juestion. If a majority wanted debate,
they could vote down the motion.
Mr. Campbell said if the latter agreed to the toll
it would be open fur amendment or discussion at the
pleasure of the House. He as tired the gentleman
that neither he nor Mr. Stephens desired to take ad.
vantage on either side. This arrangement seemed
to be perfectly understood.
Mr. Vashburne, of Illinois, protested in the name
of thirty thousand of his constituents, against con
aummatng what they considered the crime of forcing
slavery upon the people of Kansas against their ex
pressed will, by means of the Lecompton Constitu
tion.
Speethea were made by Messrs. Davis, of Indiana,
Dean and Covode who argued against, and Mr.
Boyce Rho argued for Lecompton.
During the speaking in the House in the evening,
nearlyall the seats wore deserted, and when the ad
journuent took place, at nine tiplock, only three
members were preterit.

From Washington
WAbLIINGTuIi CITY, March 25.—Thu Select COM
wittee raised cm Mr. Florence's resolution to investi
gate the circumstances connected with the purchase
of a site from the Bank of Pennsylvania for a poet
ufftce in Philadelphia, examined ex-Postmaster Gen
eral Campbell, who entered into a minute history of
the transaction, and spoke of the care he took not to
pay for property Inure than its worth. Several weeks
ago a rumor reached here that a high officer of the
government had received a feu from the bank. Ho
ascertained that John Miller, late Postmaster of
Philadelphia, was the person implicated in the
charge; and subsequently, in conversed m with Mil
ler, he informed him that after the purchase was
effected, Allibone, the President of the Bank, gave
him what he censiderod himself entitled to for ser
vices rendered in perfecting the 'ale. Mr. Campbell
said that until recently he knew of nobody connected
with the Post Office Department thus participating
in the transaction.
Thomas Allibone was examined, who said that
after the properly had been offered to the ov ern -
men t, Sfilter, by the instruction of the Postmaster
dieneral, called on him as to the price, and was in
formed. in response to his inquiry, that $250,000 wa.
the ]„west num , without any commission. That
am- unt was paid by a government check. Miller of
terwards asked Mr. Allibone, to give him what his
services wore worth, and ho, himself, suggested $25,-
000. Mr. Allibone gave him a cheek fir $B,OOO and
another for $13,000. There was no previous agree
ment.
korom Mexico
NEW ORLEANS, March 25 —The Tennessee, with
Vera Cruz dates to the 21st, and from the city of
Mexico to the 16th, has arrived. It is very difficult
to obtain reliable information is regard to public
aff.tirs. Several ba , tles have been fought which th-
Zualf , git liovertruent claim as triumphs ; the result
of then• battles, however, do not amount to much.
Parodi had retreated before Ozzolo. Pronuncia
mentos ara still the order of the day, hut the new
governments seems to ba gaining grou.d. Vera
Cruz has boon placed under tuarti...l law. Zualoga's
forces are on the road, and a battle will pr..bably be
fought between the capital and Vera Cruz.
