THE FADING ROSEBUD.
Affectionately inscribed to Mr. and Mrs. It. At-It.
nr Si Alt V 8. ». SHISDLBH.
I had a lovely rosebud.
Just opening beauteously,
I plac ed it on my bo.-sim,
And fair it was to see,
My heart was proudly swelling
When every passer by
Admired my beauteous flower,
Tli at blossomed but to die.
Awhile it gaiff flourish'd
Nurs’d by aif.ction’s dew,
And every passing hour
More beautiful it grew;
Each tender leaf unfold ng
A lovely hue display’d, 1
I thought a brighter flower
Was surely never made.
* One day I saw it droopisg,
It leaD’d upon my breast;
With paleness and with trembling
I saw it sink to rest;
I fear’d that it was (lying, *
11 For paler still it grew ;
But I vainly strove to save it
W ith a that love could do.
I asked each passing zephyr
To breathe upon my flower,
And each reviving sunbeam
To try its heating power;
I used each fond endearment,
I water’d it with tears, >
But every moment brought me
More agonizing fears.
“ O, must I lose ray Ro-ebuJ,
The tiniest one I have? J '
Is there no kind physician
My precious flower to save?”
But vain was all uiy praying,
A worm was at Ihe core,
And, leaning on my bo?om,
It wither’d more and more.
At length I beard a whisper,
•“ O, suffer it to come
To me, the only Savior,
And I will take it heme; - Y
' There, in my garden blooming,
Are many buds Uke thine,
- In bright unearthly beapty,
Sweet flowers ! how they shine ’
I rais'd my tearful eyelids,
And b ! a form of light,
Just like the risen Savior,
Then met my wond’riug sight;
And while I strove to tell him .
That he might take it home,
Again X heard him saying
“ O, suSfer it to come !”
The glory round him shining,
Spread heavenly light alar,
And in each hand extended
1 saw the fatal scar; *
There, too, 1 saw, with anguish,
The wound upon his .side;
Isy these s td marks I knew him,
’f was He—the Crucified 1
With overwhelming sorrow,
1 kissed ir.y faded flower,
A long farewell I gave .it,
That weU-retacmnerM hour;
One dark and painful struggle
Now rack’d my tortur’d mind,
And then, with sighs and weeping,
My Rosebud I re.dgu’U.
’Tiras folded to his bosom,
And, as lie placed it there,
I saw new life returning..
Beneath his fost’ring care ;
And though I felt such anguish,
And throbb’d my heart with pain,
1 dared not, and I wish’d not
To call it back again.
And then the tender Savior
Cast such a look on me, ,
And said to me so sweetly,
“ Fear not, I’ll comfort thee,”
That I in calmness waited
, To see them take their flight,
'Then, in a cl-aud of glory
They vanish’d from my sight.
Church Going.
It amazes via that so many persons in community
can be indifferent to public worship—can drug on
through life and know no difference between the
Week day and the Sabbath, except that the latter
may be made a day of sleepy indolence or animal
recreation, it,is a sin again3t human nature—to
say nothing of other aspects of the offence—tone
giect fill recognition of Go 1, all the deepest needs
of the-sonl, uni to live with the thoughtless ani
malism of a brute. And there is a marked differ
ence of habitual worshippers of God and habitual
contemners of his sanctuary. There is a quick
ness of mental a "freshness of moral
sentiment, a propriety and refinement of thought,
iu those who spend the Sabbath rightfully, that are
not-observable in those who profane it to merely
material uses. lie who hallows the Sabbath by
improving it to his spiritual culture, becomes a man
of better judgment, of m re prudent forethought
makes wiser and satyr calculations, and is in alf-re
spects better fitted to struggle with the world, and
is more sure of success in nis lawful undertakings
—better fitted an l more sure, not merely by his
increased strength to bear up under misfortune,
bat by his increased ability, to guard agaiust mis
fortunes.
Your sleepy citizen who dozes away the Sabbath
• like a pig in his sty ; and your stingy one, who
grudges the hours lost from hi.s.business pursuits ;
andyoursensu.il one, who takes the day for world
ly recreations ; aro not the persons of bo-t repute
for a sagacious knowlcge of men and things,
any more than they arc persons of best repute for
strength or moral char cter. It is impossible that
f, a man should have the highestqualitie.s of wisdom,
any more than virtue, widen the best half of ids
nature is left undeveloped.
It will be said perhaps that'facts go against the
statement, it is true, some irreligious persons aro
very shrewd, and are prospered iu their worldly
affairs. It is true also, that some religious persons
have less shrewdness and less prosperity. Ilut
these are exceptions. The rule is as wo have sta
ted it. If your shrewd and prosperous man of
the world were religious would it net add immense
ly to their worth of character and their usefulness ?
And if your religious, men, who are wanting in
' worldly sagacity, were wanting also in the ciurac
toristics which religion gives them, would'not
their worth and importance bo immensely dimin
ished* Nobody can deny this; And so it is ap
parent, from the merest observation of. common
life that men are made greater in mind mrd char
acter, its well as better , by a proper use of the
Subbath.
It is no wonder that some men arc never perma
nently prospered—that they work hard and bring
little to pass. It is a Bibio doctrine, that those
who habitually neglect God shall not enjoy the
. fruit of their labors. It needs no supposition of a
Divine intervention to account for this. Such per
sons contract their minds to a narrow view of life.
Their facilities arc not expanded and strengthened
by spiritual culture to view things as they fire.—
They toko in bat a single aspect of what is before
them. Certain essential conditions nro not per
ceived. And so like Sysisphu*, they are forever
tugging to roll up the stone, which is forever roll
ing against them.
No man is a tain until ho attempts the develop
ment of his whole nature —religious as well as men
tal and physical. In proportion as he succeeds in
this is the greatness and strength of his charac
ter. Public worship is a divinely instituted means
of forwarding this work. Let m> person who val
ues his well-being, or that of his family, or that of
society, neglect it. —Acw Covenant.

Etiquette ix Church. —There is a good deal of
common souse ; says the New York Times, in the
following suggestions. The reverned gentleman
who utters them is a Watertown clergyman;
“A few evenings since, Key. Mr. Holmes, of thef*
Baptist denomination, of this village, made a very
sensible request of his audience, which we hope to
see adopted by every congregation. It was that
the habit so prevalent in the church, of a whole
pew lull of gentlemen arising and filing out iuto
tue aisle, merely to give. one or two ladies a seat
in the other end of the pew, siionid bo at onco
abandoned; and that lad ; cs, when coming iuto
church would take their scuts iu the end of the
< l u . :ctl J'» «>* 1 without disturbing the
whole congregation, if such a reform in church
etiquette cannot be brought about, wo suggest the
following routine, or system of tactics, wnkh we
find iu an exchange, be adopted, that the thing
may be well done, if at all: g
“Suppose, then, that six men are quietly seated
in a pew upon the right hand side of tro broad
aisle, wheu a lady proposes to herself the some
what ditlicult task of taking possession of the re
motest seat, which a foolish, custom has assigned
for the special occupancy of the elder lady of a
household, or in default of her presence, any lady
or anything that wears peticoats, though it bo bat
aehild. This she proposes to. take posses-Jon of
“ peacefully if she can, forcibly if she must.” llap
, pitv the sterner sex arc di.-posod to yield the poiut,
and it is desirable that it be done with gruec. This
can lie done in this way,
. “ Let the lady advance one pace beyond the door
of the pew, halt, about face, and salute. The pew
must then bo vacated by a flank movement. The
squad occupying It should “rise simultaneously,
then deploy into the aisle, the head mat} facing
tuf *»■J tii9 real passing to his right and rear,
changing th; dirwtion *f Hat by » rlhgt oountar
wareh, and ftradagsgaio in line up and down th«
alale. still faced by the right flank.
•’Tha lady, when she sees the coast clear, com*
pletes her salute, and ndvaneea at once to her po
sition in the pew. The gentlemen break off oy
mes, from the rear, and resume theif places. Great
care should be taken, of course, by other parties,
not to outer the tibia whero this evolution is in
Possess until it is completed.
It mis evolution appears too formidable, we
ha vea not her mode to suggest, by which the
evil cun be avoided, and that is, let those who
come first, take the remotest seat, aud os others
arrive, let them fill up in due order of arrival,
without regard to rank. Rank’—there is no rank
but goodness, in the sight of Gcd, whether it be
at tho head'or foot of tho pew.”

“Dying? llow can you ever struggle through
the world alone ?. Who will care for you, Janie,
when 1 arn dead ?”
“Have you rooms to let ?” said a lady in sable to
a lmrd featured person,
“Rootna? Why— yes—we A<zcd rooms • (survey
ing Mrs. Grey very deliberately.) You are a widow
I suppose! Thought so by the length ofyour veil.

band been dead ? What’s the matter of him.
Take in sewing, or anything? Got any referen
ce? llow old is that child of yours ?”
“I hardly think the situation will suit,” said
Mrs. Grey, faintly, as she rose to go.
“Don’t cry, mamma,” «• id Charley, as they
gained the street. “Won’t God take care of us?”
“Put another-stick of wood on the fire, Charley ;
my lingers are quite benumbed, und I’ve a long
while to work yet.”
“There’s not even a chip left,” said the boy
mournfully, rubbing his little purple hands; it
seems as though 1 should never grow a big man,
so that I can help you.” !
“Hist! there’s a rap !’r
' “Work done?” said a.*rough voice; “’cause if
you ain’t up to the mark, you can’t have any more.
No lire, and cold fingers. Name old story. Busi

affairs. Women never cun look at things in a com
mercial pint of view. What 1 want to know is in

“Indeed, there is only one finished, though 1
done my best,” said Mrs. Grey.
“ Well, hand it along ; you won’t get any more,
and sit up to-night, and finish the rest, d’ye
hear?”
“ Have you vests that you wish 'embroidered
sir ?”
“Y-e-s,” paid the gentleman (?) addressed a
’ook of admiration at Mrs. Grey. (“Here, James
rnWout with this money to the bank.”) “ Wish
it for yourself j madam ?” said ho blandly. Pos
sible ! Pity to spoil those blue eyes over such
drudgery !”
A moment, and was alone.
“He’s a very sick child,” said tlic doctor. “ and
there’a little chanco for him to get well here,'’
drawing his furred coat to his cars, as the wind
, whistled through the cracks. “Have you no
; friends in the city, where he can be belter provi
! ded for ?”
Mrs. Grey shook her head mournfully.
“Welf, I’ll send him some medicine to night,
and to-morrow we will sco what can be done for
him.”
“ I To-morrow P' All the long night the storm
raged fearfully. The driving sleet sifted in t hrough
the loose windows that rattled, and trembled, and
shook. Mrs. Grey hushed her breath as she watch
ed the little waxen face and saw that look creep
over it that corn's but once. Tho sands of life were
fast ebbing. The little taper flickered and flashed,
and then went out forever !
It was in “ the poor tuna’s lot” tliat'llarry Grey’s
pet boy was buried. There were no carriages, no
mourners, no hearse. Mrs. Grey shuddered as the
wagon jolted over the rough stones to the old burial
piacc. She u tered a faint scream as the sexton hit
the little coffin against the wagon in lifting it
out. Again and again she stayed his hand, when
he would have fastened down the lid; she heard
with tearful distinctness the first heavy, clod that
fell upon her boy's breast; she looked on with a
dreadful fascination while he filled up tho grave;
she saw the last shovelful of earth stamped down
over him ; and when tho sexton touched her arm,
affl pointed to the wagon, she fo.lowed him me
cbanieally, and made no objection, when lie said lie
“guessed he’d drive a little faster y now that the lid was
out." lie looked at her once or twice, and thought
it very odd she didn’t cry, but he didn’t profess to
understand vy*men folks; so, when it was quite
dusk, they came back again to the old wooden
house, and there ho left her, with the still night
and her crushing sorrow.

An Old Binu: its Vicissitudes and Wander
ings.—ln the “Scientific American.” page 93, j»re
, sent, volume, is published a notice of two old
books,; I have one seveni! years older than either.
It is a Bible and Prayer-book, Printed by Robert
Barker, in Loudon, "A. D. 1612, the size of the
book is about 3or 10 inches. It contains, first, the
Book of Common Prayer and Administration of
the, Sacraments, next a genealogical tahlo. from
Adam to the Yirgii\ Mary, next a description and
map of Canaan, next an address from the transla
tors to King James ; next a very lengthy preface
to the readers by the translators, the books of the
Old Testament, Apocrypha, and New Testament,
and at the end arc the Psalms of David, >n metre,
with notes to the first verses in most of the Psalms.
The book is in a good state of preservation, and
has been but little defaced or injured. Its histo
ry, so far as I know it, is somewhat romantic ; it
has on one of the blank leaves the name of “Ann
Macbeth —born 1780 she married Thomas How
ell, a wine Merchant, in London; he was burned
out in 1832, saving but four things from the flames,
and this old Bible was one of them. Shortly after
lie came to America. Landing ut New Orleans the
night of tho great .shower of meteors, so noted
throughout the United States. Mr. Howell left
two daughters in England, oneof whom married
Horatio Cray, and the other El ward Bu'rford—
neither of whom have been heard of by the family
in this, country since their separation in England.
Mr. llowcll settled iu Mississippi, but shortly
after wards removed to Texas, carrying with him
three sous, and leaving a daughter not grown with
some friends in Mississippi, near Natchez, in a
short time the father, mother, and eldest son died.
The Oid Bible, with other goods, Was packed up
by the surviving brothers, to be sent to their sister
in Mississippi, but while the boxes were waiting
on tlie bank of the Brazos, for an opportunity to
ship them, they were broken open," and every
thing stolen, cxecot the Old Bible, which, in due
time, was received by the sister. One of the two
surviving brothers shortly alter died in Texas,
the other returned to New Orleans, and has never
since been heard of; the sister now resides in this
place, and is in possession of the “ Old Bible.”

Steamboat Burned—Life Lost.
The alarm of fro which was heard about half
pasr 10 this morning was caused by the burning of
the fine steamboat John Swasey, just arrived from
Red River with a large cargo of cotton and a num
ber of passengers. \Ve understand that the fire
was discovered near the foot of Jackson street,
and that the boat immediately ran over to Gretna,
wii re nearly all the passengers were landed.
The pilot left her very early, and the crew es
caped without making her fast. ‘ She was drifted
down the current until near the foot of Bienville
street, when she struck, causing the greatest con
sternation among tho boats fastened there. The
cotton with which the Swasey was loaded had
caught fire and fallen overboard, and was drifted
down the stream in burning masses, under the
whed houses and against the sides of the steam
ers.
; The steamer St. Charles, in an effort to drop out
into the stream, run upon the John Swasey, and
took fire near her larboard wheclhouse. The en
gines upon the levee were, however, enabled to
play upon her and have succeeded to this moment
in saving her from destruction. She is verv badly
injured, and the goods she Jiad on board were
ranch damaged.
The steamer Texas, lying a little below the St.
Charles, caught fire in her pilot house, and was for
a time supposed to be beyond help. The fire was
quelled after very great exertion, and she will pro
bably escape with considerable injury.
The steamer Gipsey fell afoul of" tho Storm in
getting out and curried away the latter boat’s lar
board wheel house. Tho Anna, the Piota and a
number of other steamers were towed out of dan
ger by the Canal street ferry boat.
Tim John Swasey had one thousand-five hun
dred bales of cotton on board, all of which will be
lost.
A man, name nnkn wn, dropped over from tho
deck of the Coin promise and was drowned.

New Hampshire.—The New Hampshire State (
Election takes placo on Tuesday, the sth pt March
next, and tlio three parties—Whig, Democratic,
and Freesoi!—are busily engaged in completing
their nominations. The lately enacted law, dis
tricting the State for members of Congress, proves .
to be tlio most desperate effort at gerrymandering
even perpetrated. The Third District, for instance,
stretches from Massachusetts, on the south, to
Oauadn, on tho-north, and while one extremity
touches southeastern Vermont, the other is bound
ed by northwestern Maine. The Philadelphia
North American says:
“ The sections thus placed in the same district
are disconnected in position, and the districts are
nltogether unfairly apportioned in respect to popu
lation. This virtuous attempt to disfranchise two
fifths of the people of the Stato, excites general
reprobation, and may possibly result in a revul
sion of public sentiment not very advantageous to
the planters or their purpose.”
The New Cabinet.—As is generally the case,
says the National Intelligencer of Thursday, on the
approach of a now Administration, the papers have
for weeks past teemed with rumors and predictions
concerning the compositionjof President Pierce’s
Cabinet. As these reports are known to bo for the
most part merely conjectural, and sent oil' to grati
fy the appetite for political gossip, they are seldom
noticed by the Washington press. Hut as the time
draws nigh for the curtain pftho new administra
tion to rise, tho aatuter of the caterers of news may
be supposed to disern with sonic distinctness who
arc to compose the dramatis personal; and, as our
distant readers might like to know tho latest on
dit, or cabinet card, of the mosttreiiablo of the let
ter wiiters, wo subjoin it. Wo incline to think
the writer has hit tho nail on tho head as to the
first named, if not some of tho others, but shall
soon seo how near he is to tho mark.

lodgings at the King House, and after spending
some time in town, lie was suddenly attacked with
Apoplexy, on tho 18th December. Medical aid
was promptly summoned, lmt he dl> I in a few
hours. On examining his baggage, papers and
clothing, no traces of his na -e could bo found, us
there was hut one letter in his pos cssibn, which
was anonymous, and directed to Dr. Whitmore,
in a lady’s handwriting, upbraiding him for negli
gence and ill treatment of her. This, together
with other collateral circumstances, induced the
belief that:lie was travelling under an assumed
name. lie stated that he was a native of Ken
tucky, and had been residing at or near Raton

health. Ie was apparently thirty years of ag .of I

with dark hair, eyes and board; quite’intelligent,

Annls B. Cooper, »n Indian girl, hfi* been eeaviot
od on two indictments for the larceny of a geld
watch and a daguerreotype likeness in Philadel
phia. It appears from the evidence that sbe hna
been in the practice of pilfering articles from tho
house where she was engaged as seamstress, a por
tion of which she made presents of to cortain la
dies of tho city. Being a young woman of goo 1
education, and of considerable intelligence, she
corresponded with tho wife of the Rev. Mr. Clarke,
who conducts a religions magazine, and represent
ed herself as a Southern girl, giving her name as
Annie Grcyson. Some of these letters' were ex
hibited in court, and while they show the prisoner
to be u well educated and strong minded woman,
they at tho same time V ovo t,io K ro?s deception
she ha s practiced. To carry on. her deception she
stole a daguereotype of the daughter of Mr. Lewis
Lyons, and sent it to Mrs. Clarke as the picture of
“ Annie Greyson,” her assumed name. She got
another daguerreotype of two children of a Mr.
Hart, and sent it also as ,mcmbers of the Grcyson
family. She Introduced religious topics into her
lejters, which slfe enlarged upon with, much ability
and apparent sincerity. It came out on the ex
amination that she lias written for Godoy’a Maga
zine and others of equal celebrity.

of feeling, and depth of thought. The effect of
iuir eloquence and ehastencss of language was
visible in tho countenances of her jurors, and Mr.
Mann, for the pros .-cut jon, found it m.-e-ssary to
make a second speech against her. She explained
her apparent guilt by waving that who tool; the da
guerreotype, and tho other small articles, for the
purpose of mystifying her correspondence, by pre
senting them to her correspondents. She contend
ed that tho artless story of' tho young witness,
whoso mind hud been impressed with her mysti
cisms, should not bo permitted to weigh heavily
against her, and concluded with an impassioned
appeal to their bettci^ftidings.

A StxorTAt: Ciuctijistaxce.—A cirenmstniKC

illustrates the necessity of a i uilroad from Savan- x

merchant from Thomasvillc had purchased a lot of
rice for his customers in Thomas, nud adj 'cent
counties. Ilia orders were to ship it by New York
and thence around the Florida Keys to St. Marks 1
Some ofthe knowing ones were at first a little as
tonish .d, but upon an investigation of the facts,
and figures it was found that the shipment couki
be made for less money than byway of Macon and

IN SENATE, Feb. 18.
Tho Chair laid baforo the Senate n roprrt of the
board of officers to survey the practicability of a
canal around tho falls of tho Ohio.
Mr. Hunter moved that tho Senate proceed to
tho consideration Os the deficiency bill, which
motion was agreed to.
The question ponding was on the amendment to
strike out tho provision increasing the salary of Mr.
Kenedy,the Olcrk in charge of the census, to SB,OOO.
Mr. Downs addressed the Senate iu favor of the
increased salary.
Mr. Walker denounced the pertinacity with
which tiiis census clerk had endeavored to defeat
the ort-repeated decision of the Senato that his sal
ary should not be increased to *3."00. The Senate
had three times declared his salary was and should
he s2,soo—and now was tho Senate or Kenedy to
baoK out. The expense already incurred for taking
flic census was $2U2,651.40 and now $25,000 more
is asked out of which Kenedy was to receive this
$3,000 he has been so pertinaciously pursuing.
lie was authorised to say from Kenedy’s own re
port, that in the expenses of his trip to Europe
nearly four hundred dollars were charged for ids
passage to and from Liverpool by steamer, when in
tact he never paid one com for his passage either
way. but had n free passage. Kenedy had run
up the expenses of this census to this immense
amount by tho employment of 190 clerks who have
bc\m engaged in preparing a history, to bo hereaf
ter published for his own bod’clit. ’
iiie expenses of tho census pt 1840 on which do
clerks were engaged, were made a serious charge
against Mr. Van lluren, while this census clerk
huu incurred tue expense of 202,000, and wanted
more. One item,of his accounts having beqn
proved to be fraudulent, his whole expenditures
were suspicious. The friends of this census clerk
had better not press his immediate character, or
other charges would be made laid pi oved against
■ him.
Mr. Husk opposed the increase of salary.
Mr. Davis admitted we matter was a small one,
but it was the manner iu which tho census clerk
had so-pertinaciously impel tuned for this allow
unco to which he objected. He refcricd to the
many attempts made by Kenedy to obtain by
i gis'ation an allowance ot three thousand dollars;,
also the judgments iof the Interior Department,
towing him that sjim, notwithstanding tlio de
ci -ions of Congress tltherwise. Mr. William:, the
disbursing officer, who refused to pay Kenedy this
illegal sum because there was no law lor it, was
dismissed and another appointed who- would obey
the unjust order. This very amendment was to
cover, apt his iliegal allowance.
Ho would not have complained if the census
clerk laid asked in aa open and manly manner for
an increase ot ids salary, but his course had been
by pertinacity and opposition to tho law to obtain
it. lie did not deserve it; lie had denounced and
I libelled all Senators who had opposed his niiscon
: duct or stood in opposition to iiis unauthorised ex
: truvagaiicies.
Mr. Downs replied.
Mr. Husk mi'ved a postponement of the bill
to take up ;ho Pacific railroad bill, which motion,
after debate, was rejected ; yeas 25, nays 26.
Mr. Houston cx imined with minuteness, tho
items of Kenedy’s account of Ids expenses in the
trip to Europe, showing by the letters from Mr.
Collins, that the items of about S4OO for passage to
and from How York and Liverpool, was entirely
fraudulent, as he had not been charged anything b’y
Mr. Collins; Kenedy had certified that his account
containing these items, was correct, and fell short,
of his actual expenditures.
Kenedy had received the money iu advance of bis
trip, but his accounts had never been settled, be
cause ho could not produce any vouchers. Mr. 11.
dwelt with much severity on the course of-tho Sec
retary of the interior and Mr. Kenedy, with re
spect to these matters, his irony arid sarcasm crea
ting considerablemcrimont at times.
The question was taken ami tho amendment a
greod to ; thus the Senate again have decided that
the salary of the Uperin'enuing Clerk of the cen
sus has* been and is to be $2,500 per annum, and
no more.
Other amendments were msi'dc.
Mr. IJ -rl ind moved an umeiu’ment prohi’nitin.c:
the expenditure of an y appropriation in the bill for
the extension ofthc Capitol till the first of April.
A debate ensued, in which the honor-:y and
fai . I liilne.'s of the manner in which the expendi
tures on this work had been conducted, was re
sumed ; after which the amendment was agreed to.
A motion to reconsider the vote changing the
disbursement oi the money from the architect to
the.commissioners of public buildings, was deba
ted and rejected.
The bib was then passsd.
The bill to grant Uie right of way through the
District to the Georgetown and Catoetin Hail road
Company was taken up ; but, in order to prepare
an amendment, was postponed.
The Tehuantepec resolutions were taken up.
Mr. Brooke resinned the remarks commenced by
him yesterday, and proceeded to sustain them.
The Senate thc-n adjourned.
HOUSE.
On motion of Mr. Houston, a resolution was
| massed, limiting debate outlie Civil and Diplomatic
I bill to one hour—yeas 100, nays 73.
The host office bill-was passed, providing for the
expenses of the postoffice, and appropriating £l,-
SOi’,ooo to meet any- deficiency that may arise du
ring the present year,,
Mr. Seymour, of New York, moved to ..efer the
consideration of the .Reciprocity bill till to-morrow,
w ’: ich w as agreed to.
Tha House then went into Committee of the
Whole, on the state of the Union, and again took
up the Civil and i nplomutic bill.
Mr. Ilajly, of Va., went into a defence ofthc
Committee, on Foreign Relations. The French
spoliation bill, he said, prevented the House
from getting to the Speaker’s table. He also vin
dicated the Committee of Ways and Moans of last
Congress, of both which he w as and is chairman.
Mr. Nabors, of Alias,, replied to the speech of
Mr. Venable, of yesterday, with hi« usual humor,
and attributed the obstruction of the business of
the House to the long irrelevant speeches that are
made.
Mr. Houston, of Alabama, concluded the debate,
by repelling allusions that into been made to him
yesterday by Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, and which
ho appeared to think conveyed personal reflec
tions.
The bill was then considered section by section
amendments were proposed under the five min
utes’ rule, which called for corresponding explana
tions that occupied the tiimr-of the committee till
the hour of adjournment arrived; when it rose
and the House adjourned.

The. Independence (Mo.) Messenger, of the 22d
ult. says:
By the Santa Fc mail we learn that business eith

not improved much; and until our Government
patronage is extended towards that land, in the
way of building roads, sinking Artosianjwelli; and
developing the resources of the country,'little bet
ter state of tilings can be expected. It seems that
the civil and military authorities have come into

Co'. Slimmer was a little chagrined that he did not
receive the appointment of Governor, and finding
it given to another he has thrown every obstacle
in the way of pacifying and making smooth allairs
in and about Santa Fe. On tiio eve of bis depar
ture to Alluquerquc, he had the American liag,
that lias floated in front of the palace ever since
Genera! Kearney entered the country, taken down;
he did not give the Governor appointed a friendly
gieetingon las arrival, Ac.
Lately, and just while the Legislature were about
assembling, Gen. Lane requested Col. Brooks the
\jojnmandaiit at t lio post, to heist the flag during
thyirsitting. This was done. Col. Summer, us
soon as ho heard of it, had Col. Brooks removed
to Fort Union, and one of bis pets put in com
mand) The flag was again removed. The, citi
zens, with Gov. Line at their head, run up anoth
er flag: but in their haste made a tricolered one ;
this propc-riv by the militaryyvas ordered down;
again it n.« 'owered, a few stars painted on it, and
: gain unfurled at the top of the staff amidst cheer
ing. The military authority was not sufficiency
string to have it brought down again, and it floats
still.
Wo are glad to hoc a recommendation to our
Government to aid in Hie construction of Artesian
