THE Lmyr PHASE OP THE ft Art S
QUESTION.
The long a; , ony is over. As will be seen by
by , referende to our telegraphic column, the
House of Representatives have acted finally
upon the Bill for the admission of K ansas,
haying first adopted the amendments•of Mr.
Montgomery to the bill as Offered by Mr. Uri t 4
Leaden in the senate. This substitute as given
by a correspondent of the Philadelphia Prose
was in effect as follows :
The first section provided that, " inas
much as it is greatly disputed whether the Con-
tittGion with which Kansas is admitted, was
fairly made, &c." instead of this, and to
avoid even a tacit admission of the legality of
that instrunient Mr. I‘l ,, ntgomery substituted
these words—" but inasmuch as it is greatly
disputed whether the Constitution formed at
Lecompton and now pending before Congress,
win fairly made, or' expresses the will of the
people," &c.,
The second amendment provides that a'ter
the Constitution is framed by the Convention,
(the Lecomption Constitution having been
rejected) it shall be submitted to the people
for adoption or rejection ; and that so goo
as the result of said election is made known to
the President of the United, Sta tes, he shall
issue a proclamation declaring Kansas one of
he States of the Union, without any further
legislation on the part of Congress. This is
done to terminate the controversy on the Kan
sets question at once ; and to make the act of
admission a finality, and gives the lie to the
slander that the antisLecompton men des
sire to keep the question open for an indefinite
time.
The third amendment strikes out the clause
which provides that "no person except citi-
seas of the United States" should be permit
ted to vote at any election—and substitutes
" all white male inhabitants of the said Ter.,
ritory over twenty-one years of age, who are
legal voters under the laws of Kansas, and
none others, shall be permitted to vote, &c."
Mr. Montgomery. by this modification of
Mr. Crittenden's proposition, has made the
bill a fair one, and by his prompt, manly and
successful efforts has won for himself a proud
position in the esteem of the honest, patriotic
and conservative of all parties.
Throughout this ectire Kinsas question, we
have advocated a spirit of compromise for the
sake of the whole country, and the bill, as it
has been amended by our talented young
Pennsylvania Legislator, is of such a charac‘•
• ter as should meet the views of all parties on
“sober second thought." We sincerely hope
that the amendments of the Rouse may be
promptly concurred in by the Senate, in
spirit of manly and honorable compromise,
and thus that this vexed question shall be for..
ever put at rest.
We know that this will be claimed by tho
enemies or the Democratic party as a defeat of
the administration? We do not look upon it
in that. light. We know that Mr. Montgou,
ery who offered the substitute,is as warm, ano
ardent, and active, and, in Pennsylvania we
may add, as powerful a friend as the Pre-i=
dent has in the country. He has done what
helhas done for the good of the great . Democrat,
in party. He has successfully upheld a great
principle of that party, but he is none the less
a warm supporter and ardent admirer of the
wisdom. the prudence and patriotism of the
distinguished Pennsylvania Statesman who
now so ably fills the chiefest position in this
great nation.
The Democratic party of the United States
is no weak think to be distracted and dissev
ered by any temporary differences of opinion
upon isolated questions of public policy, and
it now depends upon the Senate to consum.
into that which the House has so happily
begun.

The present week is devoted by the Catho

aials—it being the closing week of Lent—the
penitential season.
Yesterday was Holy Thursday. On this
day the Catholic Church celebrates the insti
tution of the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
The oils which are used in the administration
of the Sacraments and other ceremonies of the
Church are blessed on this day It is one of
the most imposing functions of the year.
The ceremonies took place at the Cathedral
.yesterday and were celebrated with great
solemnity and magnificence. The celebrants
on this occasion was the Right Reverend Dr.
Leers, Bishop of Fort Wayne, Indiana. The
Right Reverend E. M'Mahon was Assistant
Priest, Rev. R. Phelan, Deacon, and Mr. Sene
ca, of St. Michael's Theological Stninary,
Sub-Deacon. Nearly all the priests of Pitts•
burgh did, environs were present, robed in
their sacred vestments. The students of St.
Michael's Sethinary also assisted in the cere

Today is Good Friday-4he anniversary of
the death of Christ. The ceremonies at the
Cathedral to-day will be of the most solemn
and 'imposing character, and are intended to
represent the profound grief and sorrow that
should afflict the Christian mind at the remem
brance of the sufferings of the Redeemer,
upon the anniversary of his passion. The
services at St. Paul's will commence this
morning at nine o'clock, and in the afternoon
at 3 o'clock.
Next Sunday will be Easter, the close of the
long fast of Lent, and appropriate ceremonies
will take place in the Cathedral to celebrate
the occasion.
TIM TONNAGE TAX AGAIN
The Union asks , of us light relative to the
commission agency of the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company in this city. As we are not the
agents of the company, we respectfully refer
our neighbors to Messrs. Clark Co., who,
we presume, will give them every satisfac•
tion. The Pennsylvania Railroad pays agents,
as do all other roads, to do business for them,
and to secure freight for their line, but what
th , y pay we never inquired. We do know,
however, that freight is carried cheaper now
om this city than ever before, and we do
know that the Tonnage Tax is the cause of
the discriminations against the local trade,
which compels the road to charge the West.

In this connection, it is with pride and
pleasure that we have remarked that during
the entire session, the Senators and Delegates
to the Assembly from our own county have
been among the hardest workers at the Cap•
Rat from any part of the State. We have
nothing to complain of them They have been
vigilant for the interests of their constituency,
early and late in their seats, and unflinching
from labor and investigation when required.
The large legislative experience and great
practical knowledge of our Senators, have
been of immense value to us; and our Assem
blymen, although most of them are new in
legislative halls, have at once taken position
among the most active and neful members.
Our complaint is not special—it is general.
We had hoped that the wise suggestion of
Governer Packer, in his inaugural message,
that the most important business of the ees•
'sion should not be deferred until the last,
would have been more closely acted up to
than is has been. We have spoken—and spo
