The question ie frequently - asked, "What is
the presert situation of the Leeompton Bill,
under the resolution of the House to "adhere"
to its adinendruent ?" The iiinu l / 2 .
is not the bill lost ' -
artiumeutary rules are
rsome ti tn ,-..ilinrlllt of construct;on even by
p.,tiumenturinits th,...tuselves, but aceorthig,
to our best information in the matter we will
endeavor to explain.
having pa ed the Senate, the bill was sent
to the House, where it was nmetided and re
turned to the Senate, which body rejected tie
am - undment of the }Joust), or refusA to agree
to it. All this frequently occurs in legislation,
there being enarcely an appropriat'on bill for
many years part, which has not been the sob
ject of disagreeing votes in the two bodiety-

Holm to tipin tons'eler the subject, upon

then resolves to insist upon an amerdment
and set: a committee of confer nee. In the
present imstance the House did riot take the
preliminary measure of "insisting," bet re
solved to "adhe:e," which was the most decid
ed action which the circumstances admitted
of, and this action of the House now sends
the bill beck to the Senate, where it can be
"laid on the table," “po•tponed
or the Ssnate may "insist" on its action and
demand a conference.
The following joint rulers of Congress to a
great extent regulate this matter.

Joint Rule 15 Afi , f ' 11 shall
adherrd thcir d ar-gr_;mca , , ;i.h111( r
shall be lost.
It requires in order to kill the bill that
both houses shall "adhere." The Senate c. - ay
ask a committee of conference. but it is in the
discretion of the House to consent to such
action or not. The resolution of the blouse
to adhere, does not in any way preclude its
appointing a committee of conference to meet
a like committee oti the part of the Senate.
'The Chicago Tinifs and others of our ex
changes think that t,l'e decisive action of the.
House, however, would indicate that is will
n't agree to any further action on the bill.
If the Senate again refuses the Montgomery
amendment, and return the bill to the House,
we would not be surprised that the latter
laid it on the table, and once there it will
take an affirmative vote of two thirds to take
it up again.
The House may agree to a conference with
out disturbing its resolutions to adhere, but
bplOre agreeing to any report of a committee
of conference,' the votes already taken would
have to be reconsidered, leaving the bill clear
of the resolution to " adhere." In other
words it can back out, and agree to a report
of a conference committee if it likes that
port, or it can maintain its position.
The substance of the whole thing is this,
that unless the Senate egree to the Mont
gomery amendrisent,the bill will be lost,
though the House is nor yet so committed by
parliamentary action 'as to preclude, itself if
disposed, from taking other action.

From the Iv e. 7 York pryer!. we itofi
on to-morrow. tho 11th of April. public M
cetney and public th‘cornin IC to it . ntra.ni d
-by a demonstration of innil; nbsi lui, t Ile
French llSSUHdififi, Orsini and l'ierti s I,i-
Empire City fonnd. by u hest of ton - ti'
and anarchisto who here as well as their
own land despise all law, and are utterly re
gardless of .ill kinds of public social duty.
These haters et' law, order, religion, and all
kinds of wholesome restraint, have had a
iuteting iu a disreputable lied Republican
haunt called the Stetilic House, where they
are free to speak and to diseues their infamous
murder and plunder doetrides, and have tars
ranged to have a public torch light procession
and a requitun Sung in honor o the murderers
of fourteen of their Cello:. beings, whose mor
al guilt in the crime they have committed
and for which they have justly suffered, is
greater than that of Fife and Charlotte Jones
and ether common murderers. The idea of t
public demonstration for a murd•rous gallows
bird in America, is ridiculous and d sgusting,
and the pretext of patriotism and love of lib„
erty by which these foreign desperadoes en
deavor to:cover their murders, is a false and
flimsy illusion. Iti the mad phreney of their
deep rooted social and political corruption, in
their impotent rage against the right of pros
parity, and if mankind, these villanious for
.,
wipers prostitute all that is good. In their
teed Republican iargiee, they have canonized
these assassins, and Orsini and Pierri are made
"first class saints iu the Red Republican heav
en." is it any wonder that political Anieri
caniern springs up when such things as this
proposed demonstration in New York City
are permitted By the law of nation, and
the laws of God, as wall as the law of Franc,
these men were bloody assassins, and is it to
be suffered that in this land of freedom, their
murders are to be applauded and their moms
cries hailed with paeans - on the public stree
of a large city i We trust not.
We fully agree with the editor of the
Pennsy/ranian, who, in remarking upon this
strange procedure which is annonneed to tai--.e
place tosmorrow,'says that each things "only
show upon what individuals we have lavish
ed our sympathies, and it is to be hoped, that
the experience we have made, of late years,
will teach us caution as to the real character of
those whom we receive in the arms of friend
ship, and whose aspirations we encourage. it
should teach us caution also in judging of
ferms of government and repressive measures
which seem jPus tyranical, and the mere whims
of a despot, but which in . reality are but the
outsgrowth of anarchical tendencies and deep
routed in , cial and political corruption. When
Caesar lusted alter cr,.,wn and sceptre, Roman
liberty was already - dead, and the Empire,
lacerated by - facti,ils, vias the prey of dema
i.-Tegues. Ctesar' s wurd e r did ne t s a ve the Pe
public liftnr all. It sato, fell. The murder
of Nupotoon !•;.•r Ni)', t- FrudiCe nor
Italy. lb. people of these countries would
not be a whit wore enlightened than they are
now, not a whit more honest and moral. Ter
rible b:oodshed tiud confusion for years might
ensue, but from the gore and ashes of civil
war another despotic system would arise, un
der a different name perhaps, but a system
more essentially despotic than any preceding
one. Such at least is the significant lesson
which centuries of the history of Europe in ,
culcate. It would be madness to disregard it,
and all European extremists who fancy that
civil liberty can be forced by acts of revolu
tionary violence,are madmen, political mono
maniacs. Most of their leaders are villainous
knaves and desperadoes, too lazy to work.—
In their impotent rage against property
which they :tack the wish and ability to ac
quire honestly, they preach the overthrow of
the social order of things nywhere, for an
opportunity to errfeh themselves a . , the ex,
ye.n.se of tile iuduattious earl peaceful. They
preah communism ; , end Bociarst abominations
even here in this land, where they stand an
equal chance with all, to obtain the value of
their exertion's. Arc these antagonists of so,
ciety, the fiends of all she holds sacred, reli
gion, morality, and property, to celebrate in
the open thorouglifP.r.,', and public squares n
New York., their wors,, 'b u n h e athenish «or

lien. William Marks for many years a
prominent citizen o► this county, died at
Beaver on Saturday hist, at the advanced age
of seventy eight years, In speaking of his
demise, the Chronicle says that perhaps T.o
man in Pennsylvania ever served so lung in
political lift. Entering the Legislature in
1810, he continued in it until 1827, duiing
which time be was for six years Spealicr of the
S.?nate and was generally esteemed u prompt,
decided and impartial presiding officer. lir
1827 h. was elected to the United States Sens
ate, and served a term of six years. In this
thstinguished body he was cotemporary kith
Webster, Calhoun, Van Buren, Bruton, Ber
rien, Mayne, and others of the great men of
that day, most of whom have gone before him
into the spiri; land.
It Is note worthy that for five years he was
associated with Col. Benton on the Committee
on Military Affairs. They were as stated
before, about the same age, and though differing
radically in political faith they were still strong
personal friends. That they should have died
on the sameday, and within a few hc:ure of egeh
other, is truly a strange coincidence. May
they both meet th'e reward,of lived well spent.

Tue picture of his dying chatube is affecting,
yet characteristic. He clung to his labors to the
iast. Devoured by a cancer•, which was gradual.
!y eating out his life and his strength, he work:
d as long as he could wriH' ; then dioal.,l to tat

he was unable to move, contiuut d to whisper to
:Is (laughter, Mrs Jones, his dictation of the
ch , tptere, and his corrections ct the
proof-sheets, which she has repeated aloud t,
t husband, who wrote down the words.
Through all his life a student, Colonel Benton
exhibited some of the faults of what are called
`self-made men " He loved to parade his knowl
edge, and sometimes prupoßed to instruct the
world in what most men already know. His
egotism was, howi,ver, simple and ingenious,
and such as we believe very often characterise
the men who have, pursued a literary or public
career, though perhs.pt of:er, ,, r seen in this class
upon the Euroreau continent then under the
