LARGEST CIRCULATION IN THE CITY AND COUNTY THURSDAY JANUARY 18. I860. £3" “Northern Claims against Southern Creditors,’" “Petroleum in Georgia and Ala- Lama,” “Proposed National Military and Postal Railroad between Washington and New York,” “Mayor May, of Augusta, Caned," “Important Rumors," “Our Fi nances Abroad,” and other interesting read ing, will be found in our Supplement this morning. the coagkkskional. committfes. The alleged manifestation by the presiding officers of the two branches of Coogress of undue partiality for the New Englaud States in the selection of Chairmen for the Standing Committees, is provoking much complaint in many of the. Western journals. Tlie seem ingly disproportionate share which has been allotted to ibis favored section baa elicited expressions of disapprobation, not only from the Democracy, but from the Republicans also. A Chicago paper of the latter classification, Commenting upon this subject, complains that six ot the principal Senate Committees bave New England ChairmeD, and that a similar disproportion, in violation of all par liamentary usage, exists in the organization of House Committees. To this allegation oi unfairness, a Boston paper replies that it is rendered entirely gra tuitous by the fact that the West has the Presidency of the United States, the Chief Justiceship of the Supreme Court, the Secre taryship of the Treasury, the Speakership of the House of Representatives, the command of tlie Array, aud the highest officer of the Navy. Inasmuch as the Southern States are de barred from any participation in the adjust ment of this question of the distribution of power, we cannot say that we feel uuv special interest in its settlement, one way or the other. We will venture the remark, however, that the New Euglanders are not displaying their usual sagacity in thus takin; direct v what they could enjoy as substau tiady, without so much odium, by giving their interests into the charge of Western Senators, who are, for the time, at least, in lavor of New Eigland politics; and natur- ady, as some ot them, we might say many ot them, are New England boru and bread. There is now an ideutity of party feeling on many topics, which it might have been wiser to foste, ramong the people of the West, by not parading soflauntragly the pre dominance of New England men, as well as New England politics, over the rest of the Union. By virtue of that principle in the Constiu- tion of the United States by which State equality is preserved ;n the Senate, particu larly. without regard to the population of each State, New England already enjoyed an excess of power over the rest of the Union, from the fact that several of the States are small in territory, aud, though well fiiled, are les3 populous thau many States else where. The positive gain of New England from this feature is considerable, and her power is greatly strengthened, as towards the other Slates ot the Union, by keeping the Southern States out. So long as these are excluded from repre sentation ra Congress, so loug she will be able to enjoy this excess of power. The mu- tilation of the Union by excluding twelve Senators from Congress increases the politi cal power to a degree which would account for the resolute stand taken by these States, independently of any other consideration. A complete Union of tbirty-six States makes a full Senate of seventy-two members. The six New England States, with twelve Sena tors, possess a political weight equivalent to one-sixth of the whole number. By ex cluding eleven States the number of Senators is reduced to fifty, and the relative weight of New England is raised from one- sixth to a fraction below one-filth. The shrewd statesmen of New Englaud, conscious of this advantage arising from a dismem bered Union, are well satisfied, of course, with the present condition of affairs,and hence their antagonism to the President's policy of restoration. It can hardly be expectad that an advantage so productive of material bene fits would be surrendered by the advantaged without a struggle. But the wonder is, that the men oi the North, the men of the West, and the men of the Middle States, who have been clearly out witted thus far by the New Englanders, re main coutented under the glariug constitu tional inequalities to which we have ad verted.

A Washington letter ot the 12th says, “l lie rumors of an impending Cabinet recon struction which have pervaded well in formed circles for a week past are believed to have more foundation in fact thau usually attaches to such reports. The President is known to be anxiously awaiting the Eu ropean mail to know whether Mr. Adams proposes an immediate return from London. This, taken in connection with other small straws, is believed to indicate the course of the comiag breeze.” The New* York Herald, of the 13th, pro fesses to have private intelligence from Washington on the subject, and expresses the opinion that the Cabinet is to be recast, and that not more than two of the present members will be retained. The editor thinks Mr. Blanton, of War, Mr. Welles, ol' the Navy, Mr. Harlan, of the Interior, and Mr. Speed, Attorney General, will retire; abo, that “the President will be justified in accepting Mr. Sewards resignation ns soon as that statesman returns from his tour in Southern climes, where he has gone to avoid present complications at home.” Wo give the above as current rumors.

HELMBOLD'S EXTRACT OF BUCHD. Hundreds suffer on In silence, and hundreds of others apply vainly to druggists and doctors, who either merely tantalize them with the hope of a coze or apply remedies which make them worse. I would not wish to assert anything that would do -Injustice to the afflicted, bat I am obliged to say that although it may be produced from excessive exhaustion of the powers of life, by laborious employment, unwhole some air and food, profuse menstrnatlon, the use of tea and coffee, and frequent childbirth, it is fsr of- tener caused by direct irritation, applied to the mu cous membrane of the vagina itself. When reviewing the can sea of these distressing complaints, It is most painful to contemplate the at tendant evils consequent upon them. It is but sim ple justice to the subject to enumerate a few of the many additional cauaes Which so largely affect the life, health, and happiness of woman In all classes of soalety, and which, consequently, affect, more or less directly, the welfare of the entire human fam ily . The mania that exists for precocious education and marriage, cause, the years that nature designed for corporeal development to be wasted and pervert ed in the restraints of dress, the early confinement j of school, and especially in the unhealthy excite- I tnent of the ball-room. Thus, with the body half j clothed, and the mind unduly excited by pleasure. ; perverting in midnight revel the houre designed by nature for sleep and rest, the work of destruction is half accomplished. In consequence of this early strain upon her sys tem, unnecessary effort Is required by the delicate votary to retain her situation in school at a later day, thus aggravating the evil. When one excite- rnont is over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbidly sensitive to Impression, while the now con stant restraint of fashionable dress, absolutely for bidding the exerclso indispensable to the attainment aud retention of organic health and strength; the exposure to night air ; the sudden change of tem perature ; the complete prostration produced by ex cessive dancing must, of necessity, produce their le gitimate effect. At last, an early marriage caps the climax of misery, and the unfortunate ono, hitherto so utterly regardless of the plain dictates and re monstrances of her delicate nature, becomes an un willing subject of medical treatment. This is but a truthful picture of the experience of thousands of our young women. . s Long before the ability to exercise the functions of the generative organs, they require an cdacatlon ot their peculiar nervous system ; composed of what Is called the tissue, which is, la common with the female breasts and lips, evidently under the control of mental emotions and associations at an early pe riod of life ; and, aa we shall subsequently see, these emotions, when excessive, lead, long before puberty, to habits which sap the very life of their victims ere nature has self-completed their devslopmsnt.
