Tixe Fir Utah Outrages The people of the nation most heartily en dorse the motion now before Congress is to clothe the President with imple power to meet with proper dignity and effect any outrage upon our flag, onr soil or our citizens, them come from what power they may. Tlie diliatory proceedings of Congress, w here there are so many talkers, and we had like to have said so many traitors, have made it apparent that the honor of the nation should he placed where conflicting views, passions and prejti dices would no:. operate to prevent prompt and proper action. We hope the motion will meet with the concurrence of every patriot in both Houses, and that the President will thus be authorized at all times to take neces sary steps to vindicate our flag, our soil and our citizens from the assaults or insults of any and every power on land or on sea. Such actin is due to the standing of the United State , as one of great Powers of the world, and the want of such power in the hands of the President has the effect to lessen the influence of our country abroad, and to induce parties to believe that our flag might be insulted with impunity, and our citizens deprived of their rights without fear of our punishment following. It is time this impression was done away with. THE IVEPUEILICA.N'S To-day the Black Republicans hold their primary meetings to choose delegates to the nominating convention, which will assemble on Wednesday. As a nomination in till:, county-is considered almost equivalent to an election, the contest for the principal offices will be hotly contested. We should not be in the least astonished to see "a split" upon some of the offices. Old grudges are being revived, and some of the candidates have been advertising their own stupidity in the columns of the Black Republican papers.-- Pitch in, gentlemen. "When rogues fall honest men get their own;' and as the dis cordant elements of Republicanism are not very thoroughly cemented, we have hopes that here and there Democrats may take the oyster, while their opponents are fighting for the shell. The Usury Law The telegraph brings us the gratifying an nounNment that Governor Packer yesterday signed the bill passed by the last Legislature, repealing the penalties against usury. The law goes into effect on the Ist of July next. We have already given our readers its provi sions. It does not in any way alter the legal rate of interest, but repeals that odious fea ture of the old law which offered a premium to dishonorable men by working a forfeiture of the whole sum in:cases where usury was received. - - - VARIOUS THE tY: GS —Counterfeit 10's cm the Bank of Trade, Nevi Jersey, have made their appearance. —Billy Bowlegs is holding levees, at the New Orleans Museum charging for admission.

Ho is determined to sing, dance, and play out his pecuniary difficulties. —The price of cattle has advanced to ten cents per pound in the New York Cattle market. —A new and dangerous counterfeit, likely to victimize the most experience, has just made its appearance, in the form of fives on the Falls Bank at Holyoke. The counterfeit is an exact imitation of the original, the difference, upon comparison, being discernable only in the shading and the etching about the well, over which a female figure is represented in ti - e act of drawing water. Fives on the W Aunt (Mass.,) Bank, unlike the genuine have also made their appearance. —We have some funny stories aLout the fresh ets in the West, but here is one from the Memphis Appeal, which is a trifle ahead of any of the others : "The Bate Frisbee en her last trip had a gentleman of Bolivar, who was going to see a friend of his fifty miles up the river. Hie busi ness was this : one day last week he saw a non descript sort of an artiole floating down the Miss issippi near his plantation ; it resembled a mina ture Noah's ark, with the hull knocked off. Cu riosity lead him to board it, when be was aston ished to find himself in the store of a friend re siding fifty miles up the river. The contents were not greatly injured. Ho tied the store to the shore, and started off to lot his trading friend know where he might find his lost place of business." Hunt and ➢ilnar's Budget.

Rare is a starting point—property, to have a value, must be in the right place—here commences the mystery. Then how should the account stand in our cities and towns? Ths following is the suggestion of C 0114111071 sense, bowovei little regarded: The operative, who depends on his hands only. should not live un ground worth more than $5OO a lot, or $7,000 an acre; the next class should not 00 eupy ground at more than $35,000 an acre; and the upper class should cautiously avoid ground ~hove $175,000 an acre, unless tuoy are so fortunate as to flourish is Chicago, St. Louts or New York, where common sense is no linger regarded in rofereuc•: to the price of town luta. In the latter city items have been;old at eight times $175,000, or at $1,400,000 the acre. (It is un commori" sense, that warrants to snob a price, even in each cities. Bat let us return to the common sconce side of the question, and look to facts and figures, in and about Pittsburgh and her neighboring villages, where common cense has not yet been turned out of doors, nor uncommon sonsa been luogsrated. Now the office of the Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne and Chicago Railroad Company stands on ground that 'cost only $5OO the low trout, or $lO,OOO :or a twenty foot lot, and yet that location is quite respectable, and very convenient for the objects intended. The lot being very deep, cost only at the rate of $90,750 the acre--it was reasonable, right and proper—it was thought to be in the right place, and while Chicago has a name, lot no man say theipriie was too much; for in Chicago it would have coot four times that sum, or $363,0e0 ; and if in a wrung place for the object, (say Point Duquesne,) it would have been to-., dear as a gift for that object. At this moderato Pittsburgh rate, which is only _me-fourth the mice of crack lots in the west, and ,o,ly one-eighth the price of similar lots in the east, the little plat of ground •on which Pittsburgh and Allegheny Cities are built, if tiold out per foot front, would only produce two hundred and fifty millions of dollars, fur two mile„ ~r 2,500 acres, in cluding rivers, canals, railroads, stress, alleys and public grounds. The interest of this $250,000,000 per annum, is hut $15,000,000, or $lOO each for the 150,000 inha bitants. And who coot object t., that prier? Cer tainly not those hundreds of thousands who are rushing hundreds of mi'e, west, and paying higher prices in much worse I , ,e,tlHru. The laic sales on Fifth street, of the Church lot and Ryan lot, are at this day, and under the circum stances of the case, lit tt wheat at 75c and cure at 35c; for the property is in the. rigot place, it is sold to the right man, and fur the right business objects. justifying $5OO a foot as legitimately so the paying of $5 a foot by a working mechanic, or $25 Dy the bo.ses, the retailers, Ico , which no one consider, wild or aureationable; it is like $5O 4 , er acre for a Washington or Westmoreland farm, or $1 25 for a Government quarter section. But the city of Chicago is said to cover with hot town lots three miles by six miles, or 13 square miles, making 11,520 acres, which, containing four teen 25 toot lots te the acre, or 350 feet of front to the acre; and this, at the highest prices, nay $2,000 a 'hot front, would amount to $3,064 000,000, the an omit iuterest - which sum is no less than $483,840,- 000, or $4,335 deal for the one hundred thousand awn, WOLL.e% and children which they profess to have ittlion era that w cat: ; . ,..,,,D A , nd if but four fifths of this popula children, minors, and superannuated Ad Luber-, t till ~!) require annually $24,190 to.e;.ictoi men to meet the interest et 6 per cent., tu all their town lots.

Such hav no foundation in law or enmity, and cannot be tolerated by any sovereign power, without a derogation from her sovereignty. The infrinzeosebt of sovereignty consists in the visi tation. The best American and English authority (Stowell, fur instance,) so decide, founding it on two principles: Firstly, the quality of all independent States. Secondly, the comity of tho sea as a high ny. Indignant as the American people are and ought to be at these aggressions, yet their occur rence will afford the opportunity to end them at once and forever, and the Committee refrain from recom mending any further legislation only from the row. son that the President has already ordered all the available navy to the infested waters, with orders to protect our flag. It is believed that this measure will be serviceable for the present in stopping these outrages. The subject has also been brought to the notice of the offending power, both through the Min ister at London and the Minister at Washington. They cannot, therefore, till a reply is received from Great Britain, decide on any measure that can be a guarantee for the future, for nothing short of that will satisfy the American people. The Committee, therefore, while refraining from recommending pre sent legislation, have unanimously Resolved, That American ships at sea, under flag, remain under the jurisdiction of the country to which they belong, and, therefore, that any visitation or molestation is an infraction of the sovereignty of the United States. Resolved, That these aggressions demand such un equivocal explanation from Great Britain as shall prevent their recurrence forever in the future. Resolved, That the Comittee approves of the ac tion of the Executive, and aro prepared to recom mend such future legislation as circumstances may require. These resolutions will ho considered to morrow. The Miscellaneous Appropriation bill was dis cussed for several-hours. The clause appropriating $60,000 for the purchase of seeds provoked a discus. sive debate on onions, cabbages and Democracy be tween Senators Iverson of Georgia, Bigler of Penn sylvania, Houston of Texas, and Hale of New Hamp shire. Messrs. Iverson and Green wished the clause stricken out, which was not agreed to. The clause appropriating $750,000 for the Capitol extension pro duced a debate. Mr. Davis moved an amendment to appropriate a million of dollars to finish the work and $50,000 to contract with artilits fur historical embellishments, which was not agreed to. A discussion on art mat. tars ensued, in the coarse of which Mr. Houston com mented on the statuary of the squaw and poose, the latter with its head sticking out like a terrapin ; also upon the statue of the lady whom be supposed was the tioddess of Liberty, and evidently the work of a foreigner, she being in an ungraceful attitude, clad in a classic robe with the starry zone on here fore and on her feet a pair of plantation brogans. Mr. Davis informed Mr. Houston that the statue he was criticizing was the lamented Crawford's America, whereupon Mr. Houston made a good na tured reply. Mr. Seward moved an appropriation for a Custom House at Brooklyn, which, not being in order, Mr. King renewed it in the shap, of an amendment, in. 8 tructing tho Secretary of,the Treasury to carry into effect the law of August, 1856, and March, 1857, in which authority is given to erect the building. A protracted debate ensued, which was mostly sustained by Mr. King against Messrs. Toombs, Davis, and othors, during which the Senate adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Seventy-two House and seventeen Senate bills were passed, after which the House adjourned. Fungral of Gen.
