Wingard, John Layton THE TONNAGE TAX On Thursday of this week a committee of the Board of Trade of the city of Philadel phia is expected to be in Pittsburgh, to con fer with our Board of Trade, the City CounQ oils and the citizens generally, relative to taking action for a repeal of the Tonnage Tax' This movement at the present time we consider a wise and judicious one. The Legis. lature is not in session, and the subject can be fairly and calmly discussed. To our mind, there is no doubt that the imposition of the Tonnage Tax is a serious injury to the corn niarcial interests of Pennsylvania. It is a discrimination against our own, and in favor of rival roads, and should be repealed. A cor;ultation like that which is now proposed will have the effect of producing a fair un derstanding between our citizens and those of the East, not only id relation to the Ton. nage Tax, but in regard to the necessity of the alleged discriminations against Pittsburgh freight by the Railroad Company. The prin cipal difficulty upon both these questions con sists in the fact that they are not well un derstood, and the present investigation and interchange of opinions will, no doubt, do great good. Last winter there was a great change of sentiment in Pittsburgh upon the Tonnage Tax question. Many who at first plush opposed it, when they came to perceive its indnence upon the commerce of the State, changed their opinions, and consistently ad vocated its repeal. Waghlastuu, Fayette and Glreene On Saturday last the primary elections were held in the two counties last named, for Democratic candidates for Congress. The contest was between Gen. Lazear, of Greene, and Mr. Montgomery, of Washington, the present incumbent. Great bitterness has been manifested by the friends of both par ties. Rumor says that in Greene, Gen. La• zear beats Mr. Montgomery about nine hun dred votes, and in Fayette about one hundred. The poll does not take place in Washington county until Saturday of the 4tresent week. Pciltl3/1 to Impeach Judge krtvin On June 2d, Mr. Ritchie, 'ine';Amber of Con gress from this district, presented in that body a petition from Geo. S. Selden, Esq., praying for the trial and impeachment of Hon. Thomas Irwin, of the united States District Court, for this district, for alleged misconduct in office. A week or two since, Judge Irwin fined Mr. Selden $5OO and struck his name from the roll of attoruies in his Court, upon a charge of contempt, and Mr. Selden seems resolved to try the virtues of the der taliunis. Another Duel Harris, of Illinois, and Hughes, ut Indi ana, explicitely doubted each other's veracity in the House of Representatives, one day last week. A dispatch to the New York. Post sags that Hughes has challenged Harris, who promptly accepted. Hawkins, of Florida, is Harris' second, and Watkins, of Kentucky, stands by Hughes. We du not think anybody will be badly hurt. The weather is unwhole some for gun shot wounds. —Since the above was written, the tele graph announces that the duel did not even end in smoke." Each party, in order as enunciated, tool back - 'what he had said, and so " the difficulty has been satisfactorily ad- Just 4." ll•crioe racto Cougrehotiman The Pittsburgh Democrat, the Berman Democratic paper, of Monday, has an article speaking in terms of high and just praiie of Theodore Umstaetter, Esq., and urging him as a suitable, man to represent the Democracy as a candidate fur Congress. There is nu Wail in the county possessing more admirable qualifications fur the position than Mr. Um strutter, and no one more universally popu lar with the people. We should like to see him before the people, but we learn from re liable authority that he does not aspire to po litical honor at the present time, and does not incline to permit his name to be used in con nection with the Congressional nomination this fall. Tire Styx. The piece of news that creates most talk is the aoneuucernent, by the Cahawba, that one .1 the British officers, who made himself con spieuous by boarding vessels at Sagua La Caunde. had been arrested and sent toJamai ea fir trial. Passengers by the Cahawba stay that the operations of the "Styx" contin ued to create much excitement among people of all classes at Havana but nobody believ ed that the conduct of her commander would be justified at home. Gold and Salver We learn from the New York Post, that there is complaint that one of the banks of that city refuses to pay gold for its own bills, when it was required fur use at the Custom House. Silver was proffered, which was de clined. The law allows of silver, as legal tender, for 12.111118 not over five d ollars, but be yond that it requires gold. The Post says, "then; is no scarcity of gold in any of the which may be true, but there has al ways been difficulty in New York of getting it from them. Overrun as that city and State is, with a small note currency, the issuers of which are all the time struggling to keep it out, it is not surprising that gold is so firmly held. Cabinet Ware John M. Irwin, Esq., late a member of the Leg.i.,lature from our city, has always been too good a Democrat to be spoiled at Harris burg. After spending the winter at hard work, manufacturing laws, upon his return home, he took off his coat arid turned in with Mr. J. D. Fackiner, to manufacture all sorts of furniture' Mr. Irwin is a Democrat who practices what 'he believes, and hard work and honest goods are a part of his principles. Messrs. Irwin 8c Faekiner's establishment, on on Smithfield street, rear Fifth, will be found to contain a large assortment of well-made and most excellent furniture The New Orleans excitement has entlea by the triumph of the Vigilance Committee, and the appointment by them pf a spe,dal police of one thousand men to maintain order and protect the pulls and voters from ruffians on the day of election, which doubtless took place JUNE 8, 18,58 esterday in peace and good order. The command of the citizens enrolling themselves in support of the Vigilance Committee was conferred on Major J. K. Duncan. He is a graduate of West Point, and served with some distinction in the United States army. On his return from Oregon, in I I, lie resigned his commission as lieutenant in the artillery and joined the fillihusters under General Quitman, with other army officers. In this service he undertook a perilous colllllllSSioll to Cuba, which he filled to the great settifac tion of his friends. Ile afterwards visited Carvell' and V idaurri in Mexico, by invitation: but their views nut meeting his approbation. he returned to the United States, and is now employed by the Government as superintend ent of the construction of the Marine Hospi tal at New Orleans. Though a young man, hie coolness and sagacity in council and ener gy in action placed him high in the confi dence of the councils in Quitman's Cuban organization. Our telegraphic column gives some particulars in addition to our informa tion when the above was written. The Opposing Forces In New York The Albany Argus thus classifies the forces of the opposition in the Empire State. It says that the contest is rapidly oaganizing two separate and distinct parties. The ques tions discussed are the reorganization of the Republicans with a recognition of the Amer ican element ; the subject of representation in State conventions ; and the necessity of throwing " overboard " the editor of the Evening Journal. But is more simple division is that of Seward and anti-Seward. Upon this question the journals are thus arrayed Seward. Anti-Seward. N. Y. Cour. and Euquifer.

The Com mittee to whom was referred the duty of prepay-. the sentence of the Court, brought in a ma. jority and minority report. The latter was voted down without a division of the house, anu then the former was rejected by eight majority, et. the ground of too great severity. The whole matter was then referred to a new committee, with instructions to bring in the minority report previously rejected. It remanded Mr. Shield. to the Presbytery of Desmoines, with an affirma tion of the charge of adultery. It was stated by the prosecution, in 4,31_64 . of this case, that Mr. Shields, or some one else had threatened his accusers with civil action for slander. If the laws of lowa are like thoee of Illinois, he has a clear case, whether he choose,. to exercise the privilege or not. If the reverend lowa gentlemiti, who has pub licly accused Rev. J 11. sotelds of adultery, should now be prosecuted in that State , le fam Limon, we should see as pretty a content tween the political and ecclesiastical judicator, as ha- been witnessed since the days of his Sa cred Majesty, Henry VIII. We do not tmow that it is Mr. Shields' intention to efface in a civil tribunal the stain which an ecclesiastical body has put upon his good name, but as his marriage is legal and valid according to the laws of lowa. we presume that as a rebutter 1,0 the verdict of the Assembly, he will be anxious to have the faei established Nervousness, or Weakness or any ntnn If any of our readers are troubled with Nervous ices or Weakness of any kind, they Mould procur a bottle of "BCERHAVE'S HOLLAND BITTERS."
