CV ITO. From the Harri&burg Chronicle. Something new under the Sun Mr. Brown, of the county of Philadel phia, on Saturday last, made one of the most singular motions in the Senate, which ever came under the notice of a deliberative A committee of.five was, some weeks ago, eppoiated to examine into, and report the causes which led to the calling out of • the tridilis by Governor Ritner. This mearure originated with Judge Myers, a thorough Loco Foco ; but on his refusing to call up bis resolution, it was called up by Mr. Barclay and passed; though most strenu• molly opposed by the Loco Foco Senators. The committee appointed under this reso lution, had already made some progress in business, when Mr. Brown who is not a member of the committee, on Saturday last made a motion to appoint on that Committee, two additional menibers. This was in direct violation of all propriety and the usages of deliberative bodies. The Impropriety con• sisted to it, being a direct insult to the whole o.ocumitt.2.4. -fee the first preaurntion that it gave rise to, was the committee as it stood. was not capable of attending to, or per t°, ming the duties allotted to it, thous , !, some of the oldest and ablest metolAre of the Senate were on it. fo away ate this gross insult.. !sir. Brown asked to have himself f;;;pottited on that Committee Ile Tats. the motion for the express purpose of hewing himself placed on thatCommi;tee Saying in just so many words, that ho, and he only, -was the man who was capable of perforniing the duties of that Committee,-:-- that Charles Brown, and no other man m the Senate, was capable of: enlightening ' he people of Pennsylvania on the Subjects committed to that Committee. This . im modest and insulting proposition was han died as it deem Yed." Itsauthor was made to writhe more than once under the peltings his disrespectful motion received. The ma jority of the Senators considered it not only e deep insult to the committee already in exis-• tence, but looked upon it as nn attempt to cast reproach upon the Senate itself. The. Speeches of Messrs. Williams, Pearson, Ewing and Bell, were as eloquent as they were severe upon Mr. Brown. • The discussion on this question was con tinued until Monday afternoon. The scenes enacted at the opening of the Legislature were ih' principal topics of debate. In one of his speeches, Mr. Brown, referring to the call made by Gov. Ritner on the . Gen eral Government for troops, illeclared in sub tsance,that if troops had beeri sent, HE (Mr. B.) WOULD HAVE SHOULDERED HIS MUSKET AND RESISTED THEM. HE WOULD 11 AVE SEEN BLOOD SPILT.

(Ey•The speech of Mr. CLA Ir, delivered in the Senate,on the 7th inst. has teen very much lauded, on account of its conclusiveness against abolition, andthe great ability it exhibits in its author. It is spoken off as his greatest parliamentary, effort; but if this be so,it is a poor compliment to the Ken tucky Senator; for every man of judgment, who tom read this speech, must say, that it is wanting in the principal attributes of oratory—the argument is weak, and the Wustratium are unhappy. We arc sorry, for his own sake, that he over made it. But he was goaded to it by the South. He is strug gling with might and main for a nomination to the Presidency, and has been compelled by the South to give in his adhesion, to its monstrous doctrines on the subject of tSlavery, in order to purchase its support. The North ha immugines, can be whip ped into his support, by the poli.iciang of the cities, no matter how much i he m3y denounce long cher ished principles, vital, though they I , e, to liberty. The North and West, hove indeed, often exhib ited a want of self-respect where their rights have been trampled upon, and their interests racriliced. When the Tara of protective duties,was prostra ted by Mr. Clay's "compromise," to propitiate the Southern Slavedrolder,at the expense of Northern and Western mechanics and laborers, these sec tions of the country, acquiesced in the blow, in flicted upon indmtry.

COMM V N I CA T lONS. 13= A i versa ry Celebration Mn. Ent-rota—hi passing through your town, I could not resist the temptation of turryiog a few days, in r. place so celebrated fur its inteilt;.-,ence and literary institutions. I was delighted with toy stay, awl firmly convinced, that Gett2,sbarg is justly entitled to the reputation it sustains, wherever it is known. On last Friday evening, I attended t.te Anni versary Celebration of the Phdoinathion Society, one of the literary associations connected with the Permsylvinia College, the notice of which, is the more immediate object of this communication.' I entered the church, sometime before the bell had ceased its ponderous vibrations. The -church, quite a snug building, was beautifully illuminated. A neat stage was prepared, for the accomodltion of tine performets, and a respectable audience had already taken their seats. The procession was expected to enter the church every moment, for each motion of the door was accompanied, by'a corresponding movement of the anxious audience. I had s:•arcely time to compose myself, when the sMiling and joyful countenances of all . assured me, the procession had arrived, and were entering the church. The scene now became very imposing. Scarce had the procession entered, and my eager eyes caught a. glimpse of the foremost, when strains of the sweetest music, which proceeded from a band of musicians, who from my peculiar situation, had hitherto escaped my all-seeingeyee, delighted my ears, which ••Took in sounds that might create a soul Under the ribs of death." It has seldom fallen to my Jut, to hear music per funned with more skill nod taste, in a country I was smn supplied with a curd, which contain. cd the Lames of the speakers on the occasion. Observing a greater nmober of persons on the stage, than my card called for, I inquired of my nest neighbor (who perceiving that I was a strati. ger manifested a destry to tell me a great deal more than I wished) who these gentlemen were. He infbrnicd the they were tee faculty of PennAylra uin C 01144. I was struck with their gentleman ly and di'gnificd appearance. I think I may barely say, that a more intelligent, mid i io Ilectual look ing faculty (;races the halls of but few colleges. My neighb r supplied me with their names, but I. cannot, at present, cull to my recollection more than the two, noted on the can!. Tho audience soon Luse to prayer led in a ' , pleura, and raves. sive manner by Prof. Sucru- After another treat from my musical friends over-head, the first speaker rose, who, my card in forrhed me, was Mr. C. P. Kasu ru—apparently quite a youth. His countenance indicates. the riesseFsion of fine mental abilities, and prepared me to listeiCwith altogether n well disposed mind. °Conscious, rectitude" 8 his theme. I was pleased With the manner, in which he treated his subject. His speech seemed to advdnco in a cli m a, growing better and better until, at last, I was prepared to pronounce it go , A. There was con . gidcrable of that exuberance of language in his speech, which usually characterises writers of his :10, but which detracted comparatively- from the merit of the performance. I never heard a youth of his apparent age, make a more respecta ble performance. Mr2 - C. A. Ili r. no,:t teak his stand on the stage—a youth of very firs appearance. Ills manlier was altogether inviting, and would pro cure for him, the good opinion of any audience. His theme was "The study oldie natural sciences," I with which, he nmeifested considerable acquaint. once. There was none of that pomposity about his performance, which so frequently eharacteri. acs college students. The spirit of the whole piece convinced me, that this young gentleman to an enthusiastic student of nature, and posses s, s a heart glowing with love t s his cud. performance was highly creditable, and augers well for his future prospects. The Anniversary address was well given into more strd , le and experienced hands. It tvas de livered by .l r.

It will be remembered that on the evening of the fourth of December last, when the excitement was assmning a threatening as- , peer in the Senate Chauther,Uleirles Brown t (new a Senator,. but nut then admitted to a sent on the floor,) was permitted to address the -Scottie on the mitten of Mr. Ewing. This pertnissinti was grunted, because Mr. Brown assured Mr. E., and others, that permitted to speak, he would endeavor to disperse the Philadelphia coutav mob ns• sembled in the galleries, and threatening to invade the . chamber. W het) Mr. Brown took the floor, he commenced with a made of abuse against Messrs. Penrose, Stevens, Rimer, and Burrowes, whorne he styled "t 3 rants," "usurpers," Ike. Turning his bark on the Straker, he addressed the gal ' lei ies,declitring he would consider it n"coe• tandoetten" to take a sent in the Senate, and appealed to them to say whether he had, net intend{ d to go home nt.d "relinquish his just claim," but was prevented by then', because their rights•wete involved as well as his own. 'To all this the mob responded in the affirniative most lustily. Mr. Brown then, to keep up the appearance of fulfilling his promises,.began to persuade the mob to leave the chamber. ‘Ve were reminded most forcibly of Mark Anti.ny's temente nons over the dead body of Cresar, by the (winner in wine'' , Mr. B..went through this part of the performant.e.

Aid the mob were rushing over the lobby and filling the middle of the chamber; 111 r Brown suspended his remarks. / - M'Cahen then mounted a desk and har rangued his "fellow-citizens" for a short time, denouncing all connected with a late • administration an the vilest terms, calling on the mob 10 " MAKE TIIE D—D INFER NAL BCOLINDIIEL, TOM BURROW ES, SUFFEIi," &c. He was of course enthu siasticully responded to by the Kensington bullies and Southwark butchers. Pray stood at hissido, it is said, with a knife ready - . The scene was now absolutely terrific ! It was enough to make the heart of a Patriot bleed to witness such a demotion of the Senate Chamber. Either before or after Weahen, Mr. T. S. Bell spoke a short lime, but his remarks were more mild than those of Brown and M'Cahen. • It now became necessary for Mark An tony, (Mr. Brown) to interfere again, which he di i in a strain of the vilest invective. mixed however with apparent exhortations to the mob to be silent. Among other things he said 'that "if the DEVIL DIMSELF had been let loose with his cloven foot, to roam over the fair face of Pennsylvania, he would not hive made a more indelible - im pression on her physical soil, than Thaddeus Stevens had made upon theCommonwealthr Of course the mob received this elegani and sublime emanation of genins with enthusiastic gusto! After continuinff b some time in the same elevated strain, Mr. Brown moved an adjournment "to the market house at nine o'clock to morrow morning," which was carried with plaudits, cheers and curses so loud as to shake the building toils fouu dot ion. IVo have gone into this detail to retail the infamy of Mr. 13r'•„ •e in its . proper light On Saturday last, in the Senate he ()penis JUST( LIED all these proceedings. A week or two ago he declared himself "PROUI) or SUCH CONSTITUENTS." Ho said it was right for "the people" (as he calls,the bullies, butchers and dug-fighters of the subords of the city,) to come here when they fear their "rights" are to be in vaded I—:•-that it was their duty to come into the Legislative Halt, and IN PERSON see that all things go on properly! What do the staid, or(luily and honest citizens think of these Jacobinical semi meets There, the prevalu.co of such sentiments erected the guillotine and sui foiled ihe very wood and iron with BLOOD! Clubs were organized, and on the mere "ac cusation" of a member—men, women and children fell a prey to the licentious spirit of the times ! The Christina religion was openly repudiated, and infidelity reigned supremo. The sexes were given to the ut most degradation, and scenes were enacted that on the pages of authentic history. Its sumo the hue of fiction. Is it the wish of the people that we shall have such scenes in our country ? If it be, they have but to sustain the principles of those who led the !nob here, and the times of Robespierre Damon and Marrat, will be eclipsed in this' ieputilican country. 1 On the 7th inst . ..1y the Rev.
