TRUE TO THEIR COLORS. By reference to our telegraphic column it will be seen that the House of Representatives, by a singular and remarkable vote have re solved to adhere to the House amendment on the Kansas Bill. Mr. Montgomery, the an. , thor of the new Kansas Bill, made The motion to adhere which was passed by a vote of 119 to 111. The vote by which the bill was orig inally adopted was 120 to 112. We have not learned who the non-voters on Thursday were, but as there was one on each side, the majority of eight still remains. It is probable that a " pair off " may account for the two lacking votes. A motion to recede from the vote to adhere was laid on the table. The country cannot but admire the political nerve as well as the patriotism, which so mem ifestly binds together the majority of the louse of Representatives. The consciousness of rec titude has retained every man tirm in his opin ion and true to his vote. The nation now looks to the Senate to put a finality upon this question, by the prompt adoption of Mr. Montgomery's bill. We hope and `believe that the wisdom and patriotism l of this august body will bring them boldly up to that action which their country expects at their hands. SUPPILUING IRELAND We Invite the earnest consideration of our readers to the eloquent appeal in behalf of the starving inhabitants of a portion of Ireland, which we publish in tbtsday's paper. The lecte set forth are startling and painful to an in tense degree, and the source from which they ellltkatit9 precludes the possibility of doubt, that sad as the picture of suffering is, that it is overdrawn or misstated. The Dublin journals endorse the statements and urge upon the charity of the world, the pressing necessity for immediate relief. We have in this community a large number wbo are either the children of Ireland or who race their lineage immediately to its shores . Here the sons of Ireland are all proiiperous— many of them wealthy. They have the ability, and surely ought to have the disposition to aid their fellow-countrymen in this time of sore distress. We earnestly call upon them to look at the tote and to contribute of their substance to aid in saving their countrymen—perhaps their relatives—from the horrors of famine. Will not the friends of Ireland in this city take some organized and effective action to raise means to fesd these starving women and children. We hope so. COL. J. HERON [(OSTER. The Philadelphia Mercury comes to WI with ; _portrait of Brigham Young on one page, amr,irt the other,a well drawn sketch of our iadustrious and handsome albeit Black Re 4. publican representative at Harrisburg, (Jul. Foster. 'I he sketch is contained in a letter, the writer of which, after giving a personal description of Judge Nill, thus speaks of Mr Foster. J. Heron Foster is the very opposite of Judge Nill in physical form. He is not above the medium height, and very slender. His hair of a light hue and his whiskers sandy. Hie whole face is cover ed with a heavy suitof hair. He evidently learn ed to wear them a in Caiifornia, from a resi dence of some length in the " Golden State." . He started , lifi as a practical printer, and has succeeded is(building up for himself, in connec tion with an enterprising partner, the most flour ishing penny paper in the State, except the Ledger. It has, we learn, reached an actual cir culation of 10,000 daily. It is a spirited well conducted, and independent sheet, with Re publican proclivities. It has vast influence in Western Pennsylvania. I believe it to have the best local columns of any daily in the State, either in or out of Philadelphia, and I, as an old newspaper man ought to be a judge. Foster certainly works as hard as any mem ber in either House. He is always in hie place —always writing at his desk, and always atten tive to his duties. If a bill is in progress for which he is fighting, he has always amendments ready gotten up iu every conceivable form. So numerous are they, and so ingeniously gotten up ; that some of the wags the House have given him the soubriquet of "Amendment" Foster. This peculiar facility was manifested strongly on the passage of-.Sunbury and Erie bill through the House during the past week. As a speaker, he has had •little practice. He does not seem anxious to acquire a reputation in that direction. He is a plain, strong talker, however, and always expresses clearly what he does say. lie speaks well enough to explain RI I the measures be brings forward, and to defend t them front, attack. He never bas spoken over ten minutes at any one time. Ibis is a real virtue in any public man, in this age of loquac ity. I presume rester desires to .return, and there is little doubt his constituents will return him Brie of Pig Metal We note the sale within a day or two past of 750 tons of Allegheny pig metal, St. Charles Furnace, by Mr. Kerr, to different parties at $27 on time, liFt hear of the sales of several other, lots at $26 to $26,50 per ton; Mr. S. Firmer, of the Clinton Furnace, sold 600 tons at $29 on time; Messrs. Reynolds dt Kribbs, of Eagle Furnace 300 tons at 826,50 on time; Mr. Hunter, of Pike Furnace, 200 tons at $26,50 also on time; Mr. D.W. Davis, of Rockland Furnace, 59 tons at $27 on time. This looks as though our manufactures were beginning to make their purchases pretty briskly at regular prices. At these prices `betel is in demand. Health. of Col. Benton. A special correspondent of the New York Times says that Col. Benton is declining, but still working.

It is proposed that Congress purchase an edi tion of his abridgement for the nee of the gov . ailment. vil outworks citititB. The New York Herald has an article upon the necessity of a prompt decision by Con gress, of the present Kansas difficulty,. in which it very justly makes the removal of the subject from Cougress the first necessity, and makes tho precise form of the act of ad. 2 mission a secaudary consideration. It urges the necessity of at once closing and locking this Pandora box, and delivering over the box and the key to the people of Kansas. In lot% lowing up the subject, the editor urges most wrongly upon the Senate the adoption of Mr. Montgomery's amendment as a fair and final adjustment of the political imbroglio which his arisED out of this subject. The Herald says : Our disorganizing factionists have nothing left them to work upon but Kansas. Take that from thorn, and their "occupation is gone "—pesos ie restored, and parties will be re-organized upon practical issues, in which all the heresies of dis union will be swallowed up. The Senate of the United States, therefore, rising above all party punctilios, all foolish tech nicalities, all silly quibbles, upon side issues, should at once consent to the admission of Kan- sas upon the Crittenden-Montgomery bill, in the event of the irrevocable adhesion of the House to that plan. We have shown that this bil practically concedes everything which the admin istration has asserted—the legality of the Le ::::APRIL 9, 1858 compton constitution, the legality of the authority under which it was framed, and the principle that a now State, applying for admission with a pro-slavery constitution ratified by the popular vote, is as much entitled to admission as a free State. All the opposition sections, parties and factions in Congress have been reduced to these concessions. The principle is fixed. The exact point for which the South has been contending is gained, and thus, it makes no substantial dif ference whether Kansas be admitted under this, that or the other constitution. The great South ern principle involved in the contest is secured, the destiny of Kansas is established—it cannot be changed ; and nothing, then, is wanting to sink this exhausted agitation into oblivion but the admission of Kansas into the Union. Since the fusion of the three discordant oppo sition factions of the House upon the Crittenden Montgomery bill, the administration need not feel any further anxiety in the matter ; and the South, having achieved the vital point at issue, may readily consent to put an end to the whole controversey without further delay. Pass the Crittenden-Montgomery bill. It is a capitulation of the enemy, which they do not wish tobo ac cepted. They would prefer its rejection for the purposes of factions and sectional engineering in the coming election for the next Congress. But pass it and they are beaten with their own weapons. * * * * * Should the House adhere to their bill, let it be be passed by the Senate. The administration policy is vindicated therein, the great issue with the South is therein fully recognized, and the fin al adoption of the bill will be a substantial tri umph over all the odds and ends of a factions opposition—a solid triumph over the black re publicans, a triumph over the D..uglas disorgan izers, a triumph over those paltry hucksters, the Southern Know Nothings, and a decisive triumph over all the turbulent, scheming and uncrupulous demagogues whose objects are demoralization, disorganization, chaos and revolution : but first of all, the overthrow of an administration which has defied them and reduced them to surrender. Pass the Crittenden-Montgomery bill and let Congress proceed to business, and let us have an end of this miserable Kansas agitation. lu the name of common sense put an end to this thing, au I let us go to work. THINGS AT WASILINGTON In a special telegraphic dispatch, to the New York Times, we find a variety of interesting items of information. 'the writer is assured that there is not a particle of foundation for the report that Commissioners are to go to Utah to negotiate with Brigham Young." He a'so : , ,ays that there is a rumor that Mc- Kibben, the Navy:Agent at Philadelphia, fa ther of the California itietuber of the House, will be removed. From the same source we kart' that the Administration sustained a severe defeat on the. Delleicieney bill, which is consider ed essentially beaten, The War Department are reduced to the most desperate straits there by, there being cut a cent in the Treasury belonging to it, while there are unpaid drafts upon it to the amount of over four hundred thousand dollars, with more coming in by ev ery mail. The new regiments cannot he call . ed out unless the money is granted. There is a great pressure on the President with regard to the new regiments. He deci ded to-day against Pennsylvania, and person', ally inclines to take Kentucky and Ohio Vol , natters, and to oppose the appropriations un less they are accepted." We regret this intimation" thatthe Pennsyl vania regiment will not be accepted, and are certain that a grave responsibility must rest upon Congress, if they refuse to furnish the supplies for the Utah army. The Proideut, the Commander-in. Chief, and the Secretary of War, have each urged upon Congress the necessities of the case. The facts speak for themselves. We learn from Western papers that army contractors are already selling or deli upon government at . 1.2 i per cent. dis count. Such things are a public disgrsee,and we hope that Congress may see the wisdom of at once providing a remedy for the present most unsatisfactory—not to say—dangerous condition of our army affairs. Miss MoKen,tia's Periodical Store Miss Margaret McKenna has a very neat Periodical Depot on Grant Street, directly op. polite St. Paul's Cathedral, two or three doors from the corner of Filth Street. Her shelves and counters are supplied with all the current periodical and newspaper literature of the day, es well as a variety of standard works. She is agent for the New York Tablet, an excellent family journal, and has constantly for sale all the valuable Catholic publications issued by Messrs. D. &J. Sadlier & Co., of New York. Her stock of good reading is varied and very complete. This young lady is industriously and perseveringly , endeavoring to earn a livelihood by building up a periodim cal business, and she deserves success. There are large numbers of citizens who desire to obtain such works as she supplies, and they cannot do better than to give their patronage to Miss Margaret McKenna. A Vine Establishment. In the spring time the ladies are always de sirens of obtaining new and handsome carpets, and we are confident we shall be doing them a favor by calling their attention to the large Carpet Establishment of Messrs.

Their stock is large, and comprises besides every pattern and variety of carpets, ail kinds of oil cloths, window blinds, &e City customers will find at Messrs. Robin sons a variety from which to select, that can, not fail to please the most fastidious taste ; but we especially urge upon our country readers, so many of whom visit the city from time to time to make their purchases, to call at this establishment, if It be only to admire the rich piles of goods which line the immense ware. room one hundred and forty feet long by twen ty five in breadth. They will find goods to suit them if they wish to purchase, and can not but be pleased with the prices and fair dealing of the house.. The store is admirably adapted with sky lights for the examination of goods, and no purchaser here need fear being deceived in the quality of the articles. Their stock of beautiful floor Oil cloths and transparent, gilt and ornamented window blinds and shades, are as neat and tasteful as we have ever seen. -•-•411•0,- --Beef cattle iu Philadelphia declined about about twenty-five oaute oenta per 100 pounds iu the last weak. . - • "• ' ..• •, ', - . •. • • • _,..,„_. --. _ • . - - i f t ,:::::-;,---......:,..6,z:.c.,......,:_. ~-,----------,.. .....,, -.- --ib i s---- ilk,- , '::. .iii — 4li cic i wievi-'- . :-m N i o i c.: " . .l: _ • - 4 * 1b.... • _ _ . _. -- --... __ . •__ —__. _ =MI AL IA nElt CAMPBELL The distil) , uished scholar and divine la well known and highly esteemed in this city where he has large number of personal friends and klegilliiiiifille,el 4 , as well as .a considerablejtody of Christians, whose religious belief is calms mint with his own. It will give the in all pleasure to read the following extract from the Louisville Journal, which bears internal evidence of emanating from the gifted pen of George D. Prentiot:—ite editor: This venerable and distinguished man is now in ' our city on business connected with his College at Ilea Nay, recently visited, as our readers know, with a very disastrous calamity. We are gratified to per. ceive neither years nor trials—and his Atlanteau shoulders support a mountainous weight of Loth-- Lave seriously impaired his bodily strength or dimmed, much less quenched, the marvellous fire of his spirit- In all the characteristics of manhood he is still in the fullness of maturity. And long may he retain this rare possession of his great power. Alexander Campbell is unquestionably one of the most extraordinary n en of our time. Putting wholly out of view his tenets, with which we of course have nothing to do, he claims, by virtue of his intrinsic qualities, as manifested in his achievements, a place among the very foremost spirits of the age. His energy, self reliance and aelffidedity, if we may use the expression, are of the stamp that belongs only to the world's first leaders in thought or action. His personal excellence is certainly without a stain or a shadow. His intellect, it is scarcely toe much to say, is among the clearest, richest, profoundest ever vouoh saf©d to man. Indeed, it seems to us that in the fac. ulty of abstract thinking, in, so to say, the sphere of pure thought, he has few, if any, living rivals. Every cal ivated person of the slightest metaphysical turn who has hoard Alexander Campbell in the pul pit or in the social circle must have been especially impressed by the wonderful facility with which his filculties move in the highest planes of thought. Ultimate facts stand forth as boldly in his conscious ness as sensations do in that of most other mon. He grasps and handles the highest, subtlest, most com prehensive principles as if they were the liveliest impressions of the senses. No poet's soul is more crowded with imagery than his is with the ripest . forms of thought. Surely the life of a man thus excellent and gifted is a part of the common treasure of society. In his essential character, he belongs to no sent or party, but to the world. • We trust that the mission on which Mr. Campbell is now among us may be entirely successful, as it most richly deserves to be, and that, — av th the speedy physical restoration of his institution at Bethany, he may resume his labors, and prosecute them with un. dimiehed vigor for long and prsful years to come Insurance. We 'call attention to the cards of the Mer chants' Insurance Co., and the Great Western Insurance Company, both of Philadelphia, of which R. W. Poindexter, Esq., a well known merchant of this city for many years, is now the agent at this point. The Merchants' Company with a capital of twoi hundred thousand dollars shows on the last of January assets to the amount of over $275,000, and incomes from premiums, interest &c., of near $221,000. Its expenditures, including $141;000 paid for losses, show a clear profit of near $15,000 on the last year's business. The charter of the Great Western, is per petual, with a capital of $500,000, $222,300 paid in, with a surplus of $55, 274. Its as sets are in real estate stocks, bills receivable, and cash amounting to $277,574. Both these companies are managed by lawn whose names, in Philadelphia, are a sufficient guarrautee of their probity, and Mr. Poindex. ter, has too high a character in this city to af ford to assume the agency of any but reliable institutions. We believe from an examination of their statements, that both these companies are en titled to the confidence of the public. A blue tearui. We call attention to the advertisement of a fine farm for sale iu this morning's, paper. It is an excellent piece of land, slid having come into the poosession of its present owner, Zas dok Street, unexpectedly, he will dispose of it at a low price and on easy terms of pay ment. The laud lies five miles from Salem, Columbiana Co., Ohio, and is insight of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chreago Rail road. It is altogether a very desirable tam, and immediate possession will tie given to the purchaser. The Pleat of Sunllea Ships at Sevastopol We find the following in the Philadelphia Ledger: Wo regret to learn, as we do through the late news from Europe, of the entire failure of the expedition fitted out mainly from this city under a charter granted by the legislature of this State, at its last session, to raise the sunken Rug - Alin fleet in the harbor 'of Sebastopol. The attempt it seems has been a tottn failure—not a vessel has been recovered, and the force of shipping engaged in the attempt has been withdrawh and offered for sale. The difficulty seems to have arisen from the perfect riddling of the ships by the worms, rendering them so porous that the water flowed in almost as fast as it was pumped out. In addition to this difficulty, which the enter prising companies having the undertaking in charge endeavored to overcome by caulking, the vessels had sunk from four to six fathoms in the mud. ° The efforts to blow them to pieces were equally unsuccessful. As much as 6000 pounds of powder was tried with a two decker, but, as the rotten timber had too little power for resist ance, the result was that the weakest points gave way, and the explosion tore out a small part in the side of the vessel, leaving the rest altogether untouched. The interests of the Philadelphia stockholders in the enterprise is represented by Dr. Wickersham, of this city, from whom we shall probably soon have information more in detail, though the newspaper accounts are quite definite as to the utter failure of the attempt, which we had hoped would have resulted in suc cess, and in the placing of an additional plume in the cap of American enterprise. Against all known difficulties in the business, the prepara tions made by the company, it seems, were fully adequate. It was the hidden enemy—the little worm—that frustrated the whole enterprise; another evidence that "The beet laid schema o' mice and men, • uang aft aglee." —The papers are publishing "Dr. - Stoy's in fallible cure for the bite of a mad dog."

THIRTY•E'IFTH CONGRESS FIRST SESSION Yesterday's Proceedings. A dissuasive debate took place on the expenso'at tending the printing of picture books in connection with exploring expeditions, Lieut. Emory's being especially under discussion. Mr. Johnston, of Arkansas, and Mr. Brown, of Mississippi, repudiated the practice of Congress in paying immense sums for the publication of zoologi cal and botanical spesiemens, etc. Mr. Bright, of Indiana, defended Liout. Emory as having brought back a hundred thousand dollars from the appropriation for his survey. Ile also contradicted the opinion that these scientific works aro useless; on tho contrary, they are regarded as authority, end several have been reprinted in Eng land and elsewhere. Mr. Fossenden, of Maine, urged that Congress should not order the publication of any work until all the manuscript has been prepared; the works are certainly valuable, but judicious rather than ituudi 'dons expenditure is what is required. Pe asked the Senators individually nut to encourage printing fur personarfriendship. The discussion relative to the public printing was terminated by Mr. Johnston, of Arkansas, moving au amendment to the bill approved August, 1852, and setting apart Thursday next fur its discussion, saying that if the amended bill is passed, it will pat a stop to the abuses so justly complained of. Mr. (Twin, of Califo t rnia, reported a bill fur the eon veyance of mails, trbops and stores from tbo Mis Hone river to California by a railroad, and recapitu lated the provisions of each section, urging imam diate action. Ho quoted the statistics of the various, routes, adding that the contractors woniii loedtti e route between the termini. Mr. 13rc•derict: agreed with his colleague, urging immediate action. The bill was pDstponed till te-marrov,r. The Diplomatic any Consular Appropriation b was passed, with verbal amendments. • The Naval Restoration bill was also passed. Mr. Douglas reported, from the Committee on Territories, the Arizoniie Admission bill, with an amendment. Mr. Slidell, on the Senate taking up, by consent, the resolution proposing to bestow a medal on Cons. Paulding, Wade it the text for reading -a carefully prepared speech, having a disguised, yet palpable, bearing on the future of Central America and Cuba. Tho general scope of his remarks was against private and in favor of national filibustering. He made some telling points in his speech. Medals, ho said, were usually given for gallant services, but tho.e was nothing gallant or judicious in Corn. Paulding's ex ploit. He reviewed minutely the events in Uen. Walker's career, passing from the Sonora fracas to that of Nicaragua, where, through tho farce of a pop ular election, supported by the bayonet, he obtained the power and had an opportunity to exhibit his statesmanship; yet his administration was a succes sion of acts of rapine and bloodshed. The earliest act was to confiscate the property of the Affierican Transit Company and others, and its partition among hie followers; and since that'he has been bolstered up by the persons who want to support their titles to the spoils. Gen. Walker's men claim for him no other attribute than that of personal bravery, the at tribute of all our people. To the higher qualities of soldier and for statesmanship, he had many who were his superiors. In times of difficulty and danger all looked to Henningsen, who became the bead, and Gen. Walker but the hand. Cora. Paulding was wrong to act as he did; Gen. Walker had but 150 men, who were under the guns of the fleet; his supplies were cut off. The Nicaraguans would not have assisted him. The Nicaraguans did not apply to Corn. Paulding, although they had time to do so, showing that the meant to deal with Walker them selves. Gen. Walker, in a short time, would have boon glad to seek the protection of the flag ho had renounced, and had he returned to the United States he would not have excited a false sympathy, ndr . ' would have wandered about railing at the Adminis tration, bat would have finally settled down!Ao an honest living. No sooner had he set foot on liiii na tive land than he sets on foot new machinations, as Burning the character of an injured man. 'Mr. Slidell quoted Gen. Walker's letter to the Secretary of the Interior, and also other authorities, to show that the steamer Fashion might have been seized at sea and conveyed to Mobile. Mr. Slidell said that he might incur reproach for this course from persons sympa thizing with Walker's projects, but duty demanded the statement. He spoke only of Gen. Walker since he undertook the regeneration of Central America, for he understood that he was personally of good education, fair intelligence and gentlenianly habits Mr. Slidell proceeded to glance at instances of na tional filibustering, instancing the Spanish Carnet war, when Gen. De Lacy Evans and other English officers and Parliament men commanded the British legion ; the Portuguese Civil war, and the Greek war of Independence.. The pith of his speech was in the conclusion. Although he admitted it was a danger ous power, he would confer on the President the 1 privilege of suspending the neutrality laws during I the recess of Congress. The Cubans, although mostly favorable to peaceful annexation, aril not prepared to incur the risks of civil war. To accomplish it, troth ing therefore could be done there at present, except by negotiation; bat if Spain attempts to impose the despotism of Santa Anna on Mexico, it might be come the duty of the. United States to intervene. These IMO his own opinions, without consultation with any member of the Administration. The speech, though highly interesting, was bat imperfectly heard by the reporters, owing to the noise in the galleries, The Senate adjourned. HOUSE Olt REPREEENTATIYEE. Mr. Washburne, of Illinois, moved to lay on tha table the deficiency appropriation bill, which motion was negatived—yeas 43, nays 143. The question was then ordered on the motion poudiug at the ad journment yesterday The motion was decided in the negative—seas 101 nays 119. The deficiency appropriation bill was rejected, yeas 108, nays 124. . On motion of Mr. Montgomery, of Pennsylvania, the House proceeded to the consideration of the Kan sas bill. Mr. Montgomery moved that the House adhere to its amendment. Mr. Bocook, of Virginia, asked whether if this motion was agreed to, alt ohanoe of eettlement would be cut off.

WASHIHGTOIi CITY, April B.—Enough is known to warrant the assertion that Governor Powell and Major M'Cullough, the Peace Commissioners to Utah, will be instructed to assure the Mormons that it is not the desire of the President and the United States authorities to make war upon them, but to se cure the enforcement of Federal lass, to whioh end they will be counselled to participate. The Commis sioners will also inform them that some troops will be retained in the Territory to protect emigrants to the Pacific from the attacks of hostile Indians. The Commissioners will go with the next reinforcements despatched to Utah", This forenoon a An named Peter Besancon, for. merly of Louisiana, had violent words with the Sea rotary of the Interior in the hall department. When the former struck or attempted to strike the Secretary, the latter turned and discovered Besancon drawing a pistol on him. Thompson then seized and threw him upon the floor, dislocating and fracturing Besancon's arm. It is believed that Besancon, who is well known here, was refused an office by Thompson, which, with pecuniary embarrassments, had temporarily debili tated his mental faculties, Besancon had been sev eral years in the Government employ at Washington, and was looked upon with respect by all who knew him. The Ladies Association formally entered into a contract on the 6th inst. for the purchase of Mount Vernon. Great Freshet at the South. Sr. Loots, April B.—Accounts from below state that much damage has bean done by the high waters in the Mississippi and Arkansas. From the mouth White river to the Louisiana line, but few places will escape being submerged. Whole cotton plantations are now under water. The town of Napoleon is completely inundated to a depth of from two to ten feet. The south side of Arkansas river has over. flowed, causing immense destruction of property. The north side is comparatively safe. The river is fallitg now, but the back water from the Mississippi extends eighty miles from the mouth. The levees on the east side of the Mississippi have not given way yet. The water at Napoldbn is ten ladies higher than the flood mark of 1854. From Kansas, ST. Louts, April B.—The Leavenworth correspondent of the Republican says, the Constitutional Conven- tion adjourned on the :1.1 inst. Negroes are allowed t. , vote on the Constitution, and at the first general election thereafter a vote is to be bad on the question of universal suffrage. Foreigners having declared their intentions are also allowed to vote. The ques. tion of negro suffrage has caused a good deal of ex citement and angry discussion, and several counties signed the Constitution under protest.
