au! last hours of the Thirty-Ninth Con
gress were of a character perfectly in- ac
cord with its previous career. Owing to its
dilatoriness in tit: preceeding parts of the
sesainii. : a large amount of necessary busi
ness was titill'unattendefl fo r and in order
to accomplish it the disgraceful measure
• was resorted to of holding a session on
Sunday morning and evening. The tele
grams tell us that an immense atten
' dance of spectators was present, and we
can well conceive that the oddity of a Con
gress specially professing to represent the
moral and religious ideas - of the nation,
deliberately going to work to violate the
Lord's day, would be likely to produce
more than ordinary curiosity. On Satur
day, the President sent in his veto of the
Military Reconstruction bill, which, with
true fanatical zeal, was px•omptly passed
over his head in both Houses, by more
than a two-thirds vote in each assemblage.
The Senate Ton after wont into Execu
tive session, itXd confirmed the appoint-
• ment of General as Minister to
France, and rejected that of Senator Cow
).— an as Minister to Austria. A correspon
deit of the "Age" thus describes one4a
ture of the Saturday everting session t "The
staronsal kept up in each wing of the Capitol
through the night. In nearly all the lead

Benj. F, Wade, - of Ohio, to fill the vacan

precisely, after the speecbei and - compli

istencethat had better never. commenced.
The Fortieth Congress assembled on the
. itatne.day, directly after the adjournment
of _ 'predecessor, and commenced its
career by the farce of calling.a roll which
excluded seventeen of the States in the
Union, entitled to eighty representatives
on the floor of the Souse, from participa
tion in its deliberations. • Mr. Brooks, of
.• New York, on the par , of the Democratic
members.. presented a 'document in the

at . the meeting of Congress..
In the Senate twenty-seven States were
represented, making the total number of
Senators 54. Of these;..;42 may be expect.
ed to act with tba Radical party, giv
ing them a three-fourths majority.
Senators Dixon, Norton, Patterson, and
Doolittle (Republicans) remained to_the
end the steadfast opponents of the Re
construction policy of the Radicals, , and
will continue to vote the same way on the
important' measures which will occupy
the attention of the Fortieth Congress.
Democracy bee only seven representatitea.
to whom ono 'will soon be added from
Maryland. Reinforced by the four
Republicans, the Democrats will generally
oontrol a dozen votes—a small band, in
deed, but strong in patriotic devotion to
the principles erf the Constetution and the'
best interests of the people.
As some of the States have not yet held
their elections, the total number repro
, sented in the House is only 21, and the
number of representatives is 163. The
Republican strength is 128, and as Sll,oi
them have been elected as avowed•oppon=
ents of the policy of the President, we pre
sume they will vote on moat or all impor
tant questioqs as a unit. The Democrats
number 35,/but the course of Mr. Stewart,
of New York city, chosen on an inde.
pendent ticket; iq voting for Speaker. Col
fax, would seem to indicate a disposition
ou-his part to became a recreant to the
principles on which he secured his elec
tion.
The six States which still have
. -
elect, are likely to send 14 Radicals
and 15 Democrats, increasing' the total
naraber of Radicils t0L143, Bed thato
the Democrats to 50, -still leaving to the;
former a two-thirds majority. Comparing
the Thirty-Ninth with the Fortieth Con
grass, the Radical/ have at present a pain
of 'five against a loss of three, or a net
gain of two. Thad. Stevens will take the
same rank in the new Congress that be
did in the old.and with Butler and Logan
to assist him in Satanic eagerness to work
• as much mischief as passilge, there is no
predicting to what a calamitous degree of
shame the nation may be reduced before
the Fortieth Congress closes the career
which it has so inauspiciously begun.
A rnaotootaa wishes all the members of
Congress were Universalist". We should
think this was the cue with the
members, from the utter contempt they
display for a bersafter.

they please on the necessity of hanging,

TRUE, TO A DOT.e - N
Hon. Geo. S. Hilliard, of Boston? one of
the few true tneti in that sink-bole of fa.
natlcism, has written A letter in opposition
to the proposed Democratic National Con
vention. He has no faith in conventions
of any kind, in which most persons who
have attended tiny, will agree with him.
"The course of, the Democratic Conven
tion in l8&-4," in his judgment, "lost Mc-
Clellan his election. The Convention last
summer, at Philadelphia, did no good at
all;to say the least." Mr. Hilliard thinks,
and in the opinion we perfectly coincide.

inflexible, invincible patience, that en
dures and'waits. The country is sick with
the disetule - of Radicalism ; and this is
what the faculty Call a self-limited disease,
which must run its course, and cannot be
checked by medicaments. My life `upon

give slid and_ccmfort to the enemy. The
coutitry is now too prosperous for any
change in its policy. Nine men nut of

any set of public measures than its effect

At this point the railroad crosses the North
Branch and we soon arrive In Sunbury, the
terminus of the Phila. & Bile line, ond the
commencement of the Northern Central. No
change of-cars is required, as . the two com
panies have arrangements by which they run
trains in common over certain portions of
their respective roads. The Phila. & Brie
Company have erecied extensive works nt this
place: Sunbury itself-was, nntlkl a five years
hack, a slow, old fashioned village, -but the
onward march of improvement has oiertaken
it at last, and - the _town now looks to be crow
ing rapidly. ! , .te.this point we may be said to
love entered Pennsylvania proper—the Penn
sylvania of big ,barns end fertile farms, of
compact towns mad plain houses, of solid'and
bonen !waking men,and healthy, oheerfuland
rosy
,cheeked women. • It is a fact that ROM
will find difficult to understand, that between
the district of our State lying east of the main
Surquebanne, there seems to be no feature in
common with the portion North and West of
the junction of_the West and North Branches.
The habits of life, the style of conversation,
a modes of - building—everythlng in short—
ie different. People in the Eastern part of
the State know as little about the :North and
tlorth-West ns if they were widely separated
localities, and the same may be said of those
of the latter in respect to the East. The citi
zens of Middle Pennsylvania stilt. persist in
looking upon us as.“ Yankees," end we upon
them as "Dutchmen." All this wirbechanged
before many years, tie the railroad brings us
into more intimate connection, and each sec
tion will find it to its mutual interest to build
up a better and kinder acquaintance. •

MIDDLZTOWN, March 1
Since writing my previous letter I have been
fluting between this place and Ilarrishurt, or
dinarily spending the night and forenoon with
my friends sod relatives here, and the after
noon and evening at the capital. Middletown
is s quiet little town of about three thousand'
inhabitants, ten miles down the river from
Harrisburg, at the union of the Swatara and
Susquehanna. Partiality may be at the bot
tom of the opinion, from the fact that this is
my native town, but-I have long regarded it
as the prettiest place of the size in pinneyl
yenta. The people show a cultiveted . }gate in
fitting up their houses and laying out their
yards and gardens, which renders the town
exceedingly beautiful in the summer, and has
given ft an enviable reputation This place is
the lo'cality of the once famous, Middletown
Bank, and was, for many years, the residence
of Hon. Simon Cameron, its founder and cash
ier. The rank transacts its business in at
stone building, nearthe Square,
which was also in part occupied by thelanally
of Gen. Csmeran 'during hie former term in
the Senate. After removing
, from Middletown
the General took up his residence nt Loehiel,
an elegant country seat about two miles.' from
Harrisburg, bat the locality net proving de
sirable, he changed to the latter city, where
he is now living in sumptuous style, in the
Harris Mensicin, upon the river bank. The
statement may with truth be made of Gen.
Cameron that he has more warm friends end
bitter 'enemies than any:other man in Penn
eylvaiiii. This arises undoubtedly from the
trait of his characier, which leads him never
t4 , forgive. an -enetny, nor fail to reward •a
friend;.- I am no admirer of hie, in a political
selike,biat gladly bear witness - to his genet-
Jet disposition and enterprieing qualities us
citizen., He lone* in his sixty-ninth year,
but is &titles robust as a man of fifty, and.l
saw him today walking the street with the
same active step as he appeared fifteen years
ago., ' - . -
Puring.iny stay in Middletown, I have been
the recipient of so Many tokens of friendship,
that Were I to pertionlirise It would crowd out
all ether matter from the columns of the. Ob.:
server. I Cannot svoid,however,retutwieg ape;
alai thinks to my ever kind Moods; Mr.
Bto
fer; of the Journal. and his excellent lady,
whose warmth of hospitality_ has extended
mot so 'mita period, mid been of such s de
lightful nattily alto till me with the sincerest
gratitude. Tbe dm% le net far distant,l trust,
when they may be prevailed upon to tide
Erie, and afford me the opportunity to ropy
in put some of the hospitality I have received,
st theirhands. - • •

ed to him foe an insight into the modes of
conducting the Executtive branch orthe State
Government, :which proved unusually inter.
eating. The Capitol buildings are three in
nuttber, situated on a knsli ovcrkoking the
whole city.. The central' elinci is thedargetit,
and is divided into apartments for the Legle
!attire, School Itipartrnont, Supreme Couit,
Wad State Library. An addition has lately
been made to it, which adds much to its con
venience, bit the hew portico is an. abortion
which I hope the State authorities wilt pro
ceed to remedy without delay. The building
cannot be called a handsome one, but there is
lb massive etateliness'abont it , that. makes it
took unusually appropriate for the Capitol of
a substantial old Commonwealth like oars. A
Smaller structure to the South of this, built in
the same style, though minus a dome, is_used
by the Lend Department and for the Auditor
General's ofSee. The Northern edifice,of similar
design . , is occupied byahe Executive and State
Departments and by the Attorney General and .
State Treasurer. The Governor's office is in
a corner room on the secsnd door at the South-
Eastern end of this building.. It is entered by
sylight of steps at the side, which lead to
what Is -known as the Governor's reception
chamber, a room about half the size of our
court room: The sides of this chamber are
nearly covered with oil portraits, representing
the Chief Exeoutives of the State, from Wm.
Penn to Andrew 0, Curtin. Those of Goys.
Wolf, Schultze and Porter aro -admirable, but
the ones of Bigler, Johnson, Pollock, Packer
and Curtin, though they may be fine paintings,
are miserable likenesses. To the left of the
Executive Chamber is the State Department,
where I was shown many rare and interesting
documents,' !nolo-dial: complete manuscript
records of the Council proceedings during she
earliest days of our Colonial history. The
Department possesses an uninterrupted series
of these journals, from the day of the assem
bling of the first Legislature down to the close
of the transactions of the degenerate body
which called itself by that name in 1866.
These esrly records are especially noticeable
for the beauty of their penmanship. They
aro written in Old English characters, with a
regularity and beauty almost inconceivable,
and the work'of transcribing must have re
quired months of careful and laborious effort.
Through Mr. Gars's solicitation, I wait pre
vailed to call upon GOT. Geary and Cal Jor
daa,Secretary of-Stag', who received me with
a Cordiality I little expected, in view of our
strong parttian differences. Cot. Jordan im
pressed rge e..! - a
-gentleman of much affability,
'and looks like the clear-heeded. keen and not
ov fly scrupulous -olitician for -whlch he ha s
secured a reputation.. I can pardon him a
good many political follies. in view of his suc
cessful contest with John fie..13:1 whose ree
• reaacy from our principles, was so palpably
revengeful, and bad so slight an excuse, that
he has earned not only the contetapt of the
party with which he isi . now acting, but the
deert 7 seated loathing Of every Deiocrat in the
State. My intercourse with
. .Gov Geary, was
brief, and not of such n nature as re warrant
me Ili forming a ju tainent of his character.
flc is said to-be a ha-dworker, and express ,
a determination to exo:t a rigid adherence to
ebontiroy from the Legislator°, and to cut off
thesrstem of speel.l legi-lotion which has
growA.,into an intoler . ahle nuisance at Harris
burg' If he StVf! , ? ,, li It 1h 7 .,_ he will bays .
lo^e a work that must ertitls him to the
thanks of the whole people, and the Observrr
shall he as free acanyao give him credit for
it. I had here the pleasure 3f r e nowina nn
old acquaintance with Mr Dunglison. the
Governor's Private. Secretary. a young gentle
• man of fine abilities, possessing but. one fault,
and that-his abominable politics.
' From the State Department my business
led ,ne into the Hall of the-Horse, where
almost the first person met was General
McCreary, one rf the representatives of our
county in thatbodr., I soon after saw Senator
Lowry. and yeecived at the hands- of both
these gentlemen a degree of court eous attention
which largely facilitated the work I had set out
to perform. must beconceded to both these
members, abet while their politics are frizht
fully bad, they'arts ever on the alert to serve
the interests of their constituents at Harris
burg. General McCieary is regarded as one
of the leading members of the House, and
wields an influence attained by few legislators
tram Erie county. The Democratic members
of the Senate view Lowry as being to Penn
sylvania what Wendell Phillips is to Mason
ehnsetts, a sort of vanguard in the cohorts
of Radicalism. His bold, blunt way of deal
ing with all questions, prevents any miscon
ception of his position, and I inferred from
the opportunity I had of judging that ho was
mere popular among -the. minority than with
his own chosen Senatorial ~,affinities."
The Halts of the two Moine are elegant
affairs, and well adapted to their purposes. .If
I were to make . any criticism upon them, it
would be' that too much - "gingerbread" has
been used in their ornamentation. The heavy
gilt cornices and rich -'red and yellow cur
tains which deCorate the windows, may be
fine things in'their way, but "to the fulsome
'extent to which they are employed-here, they
remind one very strongly of Holland.' The
Senate Chamber .is the neater of the two,
though it is fitted up in a lees gorgeous style
than that of the Houtte. Both Halls era tasti
ly frescoed, and aside from the faults no
ticed, their appearance is pleasing to the eye,
ana creditable to the State. In end). the
Speaker's chair occupies a platform i in the
centre. around_ which the desks' of the me.o
hers are arranged in- a semi-circle, with a
slightly elevated gallery in the rear for spec
tators. In the House the Democratic mem
bers occupy the East side ; in the - Senate the
West. The Senator from Erie has a seat on
the Democratic side, immediately at the en
trance.
There are a few good men in the present
Legislature,nt, speaking in a general sense,
neither the House nor the Senate stand as
high for ability as,some pf their predecessors,
It seems to be a• conceded and inexplicable
fact that as communities inCreise in 'wealth
and intelligence the ehsraoter of their repre
sentatives decline in a corresponding ratio.
The best men in our State Assembly have

districts, and the - poorest from the large

period of my retiollection, r nas yearly rent a
