The machinery of our Power Press has
been somewhat disarranged for a Wet 4: or
two past, which has rendered it impossible
for.us to supply all our mail subseribe.rs and
those residing in the suburbs of Kw city.
with their papers as promptly as usual. We
hope a day 'or two will relieve us from this
annoyance, and meantime we must beg the
indulgence of our subscribers.
THE RtCPUBLICAN CONVENTION
The nominating Convention of the Black
Republicans assembles to-day at 10 o'clock-
The candidates are all as busy as bees, and
some of them are getting " very mad" as they
see their chances for preferment gradually
lading away. Sonic very confident ones, who
soy they have a "sure thing," will have long
faces before night. For two or three days,
the excitement has been waxing hotter and
hotter, and toylay we shall not be surprise , i
if some of the patriots boil over—those that
succeed., with joy, and thi_ise that do not,
r..ge. Before sunset several people will be
stlaiding on the e, rnrr. complaining that
they have In -n a‘vlully cheated. -

THE 5,1 E RBUN II
We publish on the first page of this morn
ing's paper t , ie ent' re programme of the Saen
gerhund Festival, which is to take place in
this city next weeV.
Our German f el 'ow citizens certainly take
the lead of all other's in the matter of ration
al amusements. Their Turner Festivals,
their Singing Sdc'eties and Festivals, and
their other natior.al assoeiationni for the pu
pose of amusement and whnlesome pleasure,
might well be imitated by all classes. un
the:occasion of gatherings like that which is
to take place in Pittsburgh next week, the
German pont/1;1,6,m devote their Undivided
attention to the entertainmept of themselves
and their guests. As a nation, the Germans
possess a high degree c,l musical taste, whien
they cultivate t,, a degree of rare ex'cellenee.
Mussic is to every German a source of unal
loyed enjoyment, and the Faderland fur
nishes the world with a larger number of
profes-donal musicians than all other nati , ,n ,
put together. This taste for music exerci- ,, s
a. w holes,,me and humanizing influedee up ,, n
them as a people ,'lass of our citizens is
as caroful, indo-lriousJind prosper6us, as the
Germans. Unohtrusively and qui( tly they
attend to their own business, and rarely intei—
'fere with that of others. They are generally
intelligent and well informed, and make good
citizens. Crime is rare among them, and
the vices of drunkenness, gambling, &e., are
not met with except in rare instances. Their
national beverage, the Lager Beer, lurid. hes
a wholesome substitute for the stimulus of
ardent spirits, and among themselves the use
of it is never so deleterious to health or mor
als, as the "native whisky" is to its votaries.
Pennsylvania is largely indebted to her in-
dustrious and thrifty German population for
much of her solid wealth. They are a pros
perous and most valuable element of our
On the occasion of this Singing Festival
next week, we shall probably have an oppor
tunity of witnessing the largest gathering of
German intelligence and musical talent, which
has: ever taken place in our city. Large
numbers of Singing Associations, from all
parts o f the country, have announced their
determination to attend, and thousands of
visitors will be present to enjoy the festivities
ofrthis musical gala.
In Greece, the strongest man, the swiftest
runner, and the most skilful in the arts of
war, bore away the prizes awarded to suocess :
in the English and Scottish Border tianics,
the skillful archer, the strongest wrestlerand
he, who was speediest of foot, won the laurels.
The prizes here to he contended for eail for
the exercise of a more refined talent, and in
dicate a wore cultivated taste. It is the vota
ries of Apride, not of Mars or Hercules, who
are here to contest the meed of excellence,
and the skilled vocal and instrumental per
formers will celebrate in glorious paeans the
Arts of Peace and not of War. We refer
our readers to the first page of this day's pa
per, for full particulars of the Musical Festi
val. The translation, there given, of Julius
Otto's celebrated Musical Tableau, descrip
tive of the life of the Fisherman, has been
made at the request of the Committee of Ar
rangements, I,y Mueller, Esq., =a mem—
ber of the Pittsburgh Bar for many years,
vile of the editorial eorp.: city, and a
gentleman of classical education and culti
vated taste. lie has labored as far as possi
-_hle to preserve the peculiar force as well ttiS
metre of the original , iri whicli be has most
happily succeeded.
Importah Dectgloes
The United States Supreme Court have
made a very important decision relative to
taxes. They decide that as to the (invert'
ment. parts with its title to lands only, %%hen
the patent issues, that public lands are not
therefore taxable by States or Territories until
the actual issue of the patent. This is a de
decision of vast importance to Western set•
tiers, and all they have to do to avoid the pay
ment of taxes is to let tree patent lie in the
othoP, or, if necessary, get a friend to contest
it, so as to delay the issue as long as he may
desire to s.void taxes
Unantmouz Against lg..
The proposition whieh was broached in the
Louisiana Legislature, to introduce African
coolies into that State, has been denounced
by nearly all the journals in the State. It
was the absurd holx, that the Louisianians
were actually landing cargoes of Africans for
their plantations, which induced the British
cruis ,. .rs to ov,rhaul every American vessel
now in the Gull. After swallowin g the
giahoax, a genuine John Bull can swallow
any American absurdity, especially if it re
flects upon the character and standing of the
people and their institutions.
Pittsburgh Bonds
A thousand dollar bond, issued to the Char
tiers Valley Railroad Company, bearing six
per cent. interest, was sold in Philadelphia,
on Monday, for $5OO.

The Senate Committee of Conference have
reported in favor of removing the bridge as
en obstruction to the navigation of the Mis
sissippi river. In the House, the Committee
.)f Conference have presented a report, thro'
Mr. Wa,hburne; of Galena. The Committee
were instructed by the following resolution
That the Cummitee co Copmerce be
instructed to inquire if the railroad badge acr,,es
tho. Mississippi et Rook Island, Illinois, is a serious
obstruction to the navigati , n of said river, and if
to report to this Housa what action, if any, is paces•
nary on the ,• art of the Government, to cause said
obstruction to be romoved.
The Committee, in their report, state that
" they cannot doubt but that the bridge, as
at present constructed, is a material and dan
gerous obstruction to the navigation of the
Mississippi river, but they believe that the
Courts have full and ample power to remedy
any evil that may exist in that regard. At
present they are disinclined to recommend
any action by Congress in the premises : but
whether, at some future time, it may not he

the Covernment to proceed against the bridge,

The Appropriation bill was &bated at great long h
by the friends of internal improvements, especially
100 Northwestern Senators, who introduced meend
meet after amendment for appropriatious to lake and
river harbors. Nothing was accomp ished; and at
f o'clock the Senate tows recess till six o'clock.
On remsseuabling, the debate was resumed.
Mr. Seward, of New York, made a powerful rppea'.
for Western interests.
The proposition under consideration was to appro

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE&
Mr. Morrill spoke of a great wrong having been
done in the sale of The reservation. A frank and
honorable man, placed in the positioa of Secretary of
War, when he found that he made a blunder and a
mistake in the appointment of agents or superin
tendents, would have frankly admitted the fact and
corrected it; but instead of that there watt no: only
a remarkable peretitem aad studied effort to justify
wrong, but au attempt to persuade us he Wile HO,
in doiiberate cooceamient uf the prelimineriel, pre
ceding the sale. No corpse i , the Catacomb: was

Mr. Faulkner oxpreesed hie disapprobation the

Mr. Morrie, of Idinois, urolorstt.cii that the 1 1 )
Jett's Point investigwting Committee would report
to.morrow, and as twat subject and ta, were tam'
what connected, they thowd be conodered together.
the same parties wils purchased the Fort Snelling
reserve ion, only it tee' de.. It., r:ho

Mr. Florence acid that Mr. Moire knew more
that: he dul,il tho wllO it., report to -tu ' -row.
Mr Morris %pitied that cc was so informed 'u; the
Chairman of the Cuattnittee.
Mr. Hawue, of .Nla..s.ichrssetts,ra
ports and-evidence, he had c.,mo Cue oun&uolott to
support the condemnatory resolutions of the majori
ty. The sale of Fort Snelling, for the price, t cer
coin persona, and, at the time, was the consuls:km ,tion
ts: a schema laid in the pest administration, and car
ried out in the present, under the u; es of the Secre
tar; of War, in such a manner that blindness to it
was a grievous official fraud. He did not care what
the property brought; the House bad to do with the
secret solo, and the special favorites who take
rich slices of the public domain to their heart's con
tent at any price.
Mr. Bishop, of Connecticut, said that this move
meet was set on foot for the purpose of gratifying a
spirit of public dishonesty which seeks to establish
its own purity and perfection by heaping disgrace
upon those entitled to the highest confidence and
respect. The whole report of the Committee, from
beginning ti ertae--its statements, arguments, ae
,mdeptions and conclusions—hears unmistakable evi
dence of a deep-laid party scheme against see of
the chief officsrs of the Government, whom he be
lieved to 1. , 0 as honest a man as was ever honored
with the position of Secretary of War. Ho con.
tended that Secretary Floyd's course was in accor
dance with law, and, therefore, no: void, as the Cum.
mittee assert. The Secretary was bound to dispose cf
Fort Snelling, it being no longer necessary for mili
tary purposes.
Mr. Grow, of Pennsylvania, refuted the defence
made by the gentleman from Connecticut. He re
garded the Secretary of War as a second Jackson
only in being governed by his own whim ant ca
price, against toe advice of Genera .s Scott, Jessup
and others. The Secretary hid be t,, oil
any military reservation unless properly ascertained
to be useless for i,efensive purposes; otherwise he is
subject to impeachment. He has vioiated the low of
Congress and trampled down the rights of the pto
ple, udder the sanction of the President.
Mr. Phelps, of Missouri, replied, saying that the
law gives the Secretary auth.mity to dispose of reser
vations by private or public , tor it sometimes
occurs that better prices are obtained by the former
than by the latter mode, and the case in point show e d
that a portion of the Fen Snelling property was pre.
viously sold at public sale fur a dold.r and a quarter
per acre. With this example, it was a wise policy
that the Secretary pursued the course for which he is
now arraigned.
Mr. Cavanaugh, of Minnesota, defended the Sale
of Fort Snelling, which the Republicans made use of
as a cats-paw to pluck their political chesnuts out of
the ashes.
Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, would not say that the Sec
rotary was guilty of an overt act, but that be was
surrounded by such associations as to throw suspi
cions over the transaction. There was a fraudulent
combination between the agent of the Government
and the purchasers of the reservation.
Mr. Burnett, of Kentucky, said that when the Re
publicans charged fraud, they ought to remember
that history shows that all the frauds and eorrup.
tions of public men are found on that side. He de
fended the course of the Secretary.
From INaalkington
WASHINGTON CITY, Juno I.—Letters from Arizo
nia to Lieut. _Mowry, the delegate fro o the Territory,
state that itsis prol;dble teat Peschieva, Governor ut
Sonora, will declare that State independent in tho
event of the success of the Zuloaga government, or
of Santa Anna's return to Mexico. The news con
firms the p - evious stateuteuts regarding the corres
pondence between l'echieva and parties in *le
United States. ?•rizonia contindes much disturbed
by Indian depredatdons, murders and robberies, arm
there being no courts of law, violence remains un
checked The intelligen.ie from the silver mines is
highly encouraging, fresh discoveries having been
made. Tuezen was nearly deserted, by the neople
going to the new placer geld diggings at Canoda del
Ora, forty miles dlstant. The emigration from Cali
fornia was en the increase, and a press was about
being brought from San Fr ncisclo for the establish
meat of a newspaper at Tuezon. The public were
anxious y waiting for tae °Tr:at.:LOA territorial gov
ernment.
The Secretary of War has iv.dieated his intention
of sending troops to Arizona, as soon as there are
any at his disposal.
Mr. Burlingame's report, which has been unani
mously concurred in by the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, is accompanied by J. resolution requesting
the President to obtain redress on account of the
conduct of the French government re'ative to the
American bark Adriatic. The report also recom
mends a revision of the laws in reference to colli
sions at sea, and an arrangement by which damages
determinedcan be iin Bach eases.
