Rich Debate In the House or Representatives.
Giddlnga flayed by Stanley.
Mr. Stratton having presented the resolutions of the
lsgtslature of Mew Jersey, cordially opproving of the
Compromise, and moved to have them printed—
Mr. Gtomnas sold to tho Houso and tho country that
he, for one, who professed to be a Frcosollcr on this
floor, was now and at all times ready to discuss tho quea-
. tlonof the Compromise when it came before them.
The resolutions of tho Stato of New Jersey were now
. before tho House; and what It tho position In which geu-
Ueracn are thus placed? Tho people or that Stale,
through their Legislature, avow their sentiments hi favor
of the Compromise measure*, whllo the representatives
of tho pooplo In Congress are not permitted to- speak or
express their-views and Intentions. 8lmllar resolutions
havo been sent to tho other branch, where, from the drat
day of the aoaslon until now, there has been one contin
ual scone of agitation going on, to quiet agitation and
silence discussion. It was far ft-om Ids Intention to ob-
Joct to printing tho resolutions of tho Siuto <>f hew Jer
sey, which is entltlod to respect; blit ho did object to this
Insidious mode of arguing this question in the Louis a-
tore, and sending tho result here, while the lips of tho
....... •- > n tills
representatives o"f tho people In this llall are closed. He
ooncurrod in those resolutions where they speak of maln-
. . f u t man who
Unlng.ua vAiiumuiiuiit —.' —
would go contrary. Would to God ronresentullves here
would sustain tho Constitution; and in saying this he
would bo understood. This Congress has nothing lo do
with slavery in tho States. Every attempt of tho Gov
ernment to involve the North In it la now, over has been,
and ever will bo, a violation of their rights. It Is your
business and institution; and whatever curse and Iniqui
ty, or glory there Is In It, belongs to tho South and not to
tho North. Keep It to yourselves, maintain It, but do
not Involve freemen In U. He would take this occasion
to repoat that In no case under tho Constitution but one
are thoy authorized to legislate upon tho subject; and
that Is as to tho capture of frigltlvo slaves. In tho sight
of heaven, the pooplo of tho North will resist the at
tempt to Involve them In tho Iniquities of Iho slave trade.
You might as well uttempt lo tear Deity from Ills throne,
and trample on the principles of eternal truth, before this
can bo done. Ho took this occasion to say that he tiad
prepared a bill to repeal tho law of 1807, which estab
lishes tho coastwise slave trade; so that the trade may
rest where it was found—amoug tho slavo owners them
selves. Wheu he would bring up his bill ho would glvo
gentlemen an opportunity to settle the question forever.
Ho anticipated that there would then be a bucking out
of northern men. He wanted to meet his slave-holding
friends among whom there Is generosity; ho wished them
to assist him In smoking out tho dough-faces from under
tho bushes. Hu would say to southern men, it Is their
duty to catch their runaway slaves; it wjfs not for the
people of tho North to play the bloodhound, and pursue
and restore tho fugitives.
Mr. Stanlt. The gonllcman has given us some advice
ms to how wo may improvo our statesmanship. If I un
derstood him correctly, we ought not to have mgourued
from Thursday or Friday until Monday ss often as wo
have, but sat here to listen to Iho tilth which ho Is In the
habit of pouring out to Improve our M statesmanship.”
How long lias It been since the gentleman has become so
fond of lecturing this Houso? Let the dinner-bell ring,
and ho is the first man to leave this Hall, to satisfy- his ap
petite, to the ueglect of the public business. He is ns
punctual In this as tho operatives of a factory are to tho
■team whistle. Who was It that left Congress before the
close of a session, after having poured out all he had to
■ay on tho subject of slavery? Who went home three
weeks before tho end of the session, regardless of the bn-
alncss of the country? Who but the gentleman from
Ohio ? And yet the llouso Is to bo lectured by him ?
Mr. Giddixos, (Mr. Stanly yielding the floor.! So fur
as my dinner-hour is concerned, It is important to the na
tion.- It Is the most stupendous subject which has called
upon the gentleman fur the exercise of his statesmanship,
whether I go to dinner at ouo or three o’clock. As to my
absence during llio last long session, I will say that there
was no question taken on which my vote would have had
any jioislble effect. I left for home when 1 saw that the
House hnd spent seven long months on one question, and
could not bring the dough-fnccs lo vote on tho bill for the
admlsaion of California Into the Union. When It w as un
der discussion threo weeks, I conferred with northern and
southern gentlemen, with uview to devise means todrive
the dough-faces to a vote. We had a large majority in
fovor ol the bill, but It was pul off and delated for seven
long months, and nothing else was attended to.
Mr. Stanly. Has the gentleman finished his explana
tion?
Mr. Gummas. Not yet.
Mr. Stanlt. How much longer?
Mr GtnniNOf. I nm sorry to see slaveholders copying
from dough-faced Whigs of the North. Let the douglt-
faces copy after you. This Is your business, and they
ought to do It. And hero I will say, an Important meas
ure and bill was pending, for the non-passage of which I
waa censured In certain juipera because I did not carry
through tho River and Harbor bill at an earlier period.—
This was Imputed to ueglect, because I was absent the
laat few day* of the session. I appeal to you, Mr. Speak
er, and to members who were ot that tlroo here, to bear
testimony that I made use of every possible means to
hasten the public business, from the commencement of
the seMlon, and never voted for an adjournment for more
than one day. During tills session I liave declined, some
times, to adjourn over even ono day. If tho gentleman
censures me for that, let him say so, as a man. It is the
first time I ever found my friend dodging.
Instead of spending seven months upon tho California
J uetUon, it should have been disposed of In us many
»ys; and Instead of the gentleman and others remaining
here, they should have adjourned and gone home two or
three months earlier than they did. litis would havo
saved a large sum of money unnecessarily spent. Is
there a Whig, or a Democrat, or a dough-frtce, who was
In tho last Congress, who can tell gui bu*o wo remained
here doing nothing ?
Gentlemen were looking forward to the nominations
for President, and ho warned the country that, until the
nominations were made, uo business would tw done.—
This is the policy, and 1 caution tho couutry at this time
that we are to do nothing until the nominations arc made,
and until Buucombe speeches are delivered and dis
tributed.
Mr. Stanly. I yielded the floor for an explanation,
but tho gentleman branched off in a lecture ut large on
general deportment; for bo seems to think that he hua
■orao special gift from Providence, or oven a blither or
lower power, which 1 will not refer to here, [laughter,] to
lecture dough-faces, Whigs, and Democrats. Then the
gentleman goes on and renews his lecture*. He admits
that he went home and neglected the public business.—
We heard nothing then of his lectures. No ten men
delay business sy much as that honorable member.
Mr. Giddinos.—I call upon the gentleman to make
good his saving; and in tho face of the House I pro
nounce It false.
Mr. Stanly.—It Is usual for one who has no regard for
tho decencies of life to relieve himself of respoasibilily
by charging falsehood—one who sneaked away from tills
House, taking *•' * *■ -*■-* J - •
akin. ir he was a free negro, lie would run wiki,
the course of three weeksbe brought up to tho whipping,
port and lashed for stealing from or slandering some of
hla neighbors. But I chargo him with being at a certain
convention and making a speech, and this ho does not
deny. And he gets over this by saying that If I intended
to say what 1 do not say, It Is not n fact. Ho was In Nor
ristown also, and—
A messago was about to bo announced from the Presi
dent of the United States, when
The SrxAKiR naked tho gentleman to suspend his re
marks for a few moments. ... ..,
Mr. 8tanlt, (pointing to Mr. Giddlngs.) " o ought to
suspend that follow by the neck. , .. ...
The messago was received and placed upon tho table.
Mr. Stanly resumed. I have departed from m> u«ual
course of treatment towards that member, but Ills or n in
solence caused me to say something on this occasion. He
rose and poured out his abuse on llio whole House and
country. In a moineut of excitement, I got up anu re
minded him of lit* misdeeds, lie said my assertion was
raise. He lias thrown Iho first stone, and must take tho
consequences. I beg pardon for having stooped to a
controversy with him. . t . , . ,
Mr. Giddinhs. One word. When I spoke of what
tho gentleman said as folre, 1 did not transcend tho par
liamentary rules of the House. It Is not insulting nor
ungoutlenianlv. Jr a gentleman Is wrong, I don’t say that
he intentionally misrepresents the facts. I wlU coll at
tention to another thing. When tho gonllomnn Is brought
forward by the servilcs of tho North to assail mo and
play the braggart for Ute dough-faces and Swiss guard of
the North, 1 will say to hint, If you go so low as you did
to-day, 1 can’t follow you. It may bo suitable In his
country for tho barroom, but such language would not
bo iicrmltled In tho barrooms North, nor pass current
among tho loafers. It Is unbecoming frcemon lo use such
language in this llall. Tho gentleman says that 1 was at
Norristown during tho holldnys; but where was ho and
tho Houso? Hero drinking their grog. • [Laughter.] 1
was amoug the pcoplo of tho country, endeavoring lo
press on a great and important principle; nnd by look
ing at tho Journal you will find tho gentleman anywhere
else but in tho Hull at that time. [A voices “Docs tho
Journal say any thing about drink ? J And yet iho gen
tleman takes me to task because, during tho holidays, 1
visited my friends.
Mr.Stanly. I must goon.
Mr. Giduinos. Ono word more.
Mr. Stanlt. The gentleman says that it Is not wrong
for a man to charge the assertion of another ns false.—
Tills is in accordance with his views of propriety! This
Is Ids Idea or decency! If I had been designated lo at
tack him, I should go homo; because I think If any ono
should bo picked out for tills purpose, It would bo llie
meanest in the Houso; and It would not only disgrace
the frco-eollcra but human nature. [Mr. Stanlt, at tills
point, was understood to refer to Ids colleague from Or
ange district, (Mr. Venable.) and Mr. Giddinos’a col
league, (Mr. Taylor,) saving that Mr. Giddinos had
changed irart of his speech delivered on a former occa
sion with reforence to the views of theso goutlemen,
thereby misrepresenting them.] I chnrge the reporters,
he said, not to let his villainous hands touch one word I
say, for lie would make alterations after ho goes to hit
room with hit colored friends. [Laughter.]
He talks about my associations; but bud any body ever
seen him in decent private company ? Free negroes may
call to seo him. Ho never lets Ids right hand kuow what
Ids lei? hand docs. He asks where 1 was while he was In
Pennsylvania. I do not set myself up as a standard. I
do not say that I am always In the House whetil oughtto
be. lie says that we were here drinking our grog; but
where was tho gentleman? In Philadelphia, drinking
beer and eating oysters with free negroes. [Daughter.]
IVbo was the best off? “Judge ye.” He thinks that lie
was better employed tliau we were. [Perceiving Mr.
1’rkston Kins near Mr. Ginmsos.] Help him out, he
needs a little more poison. [I.aughtcr.1
But 1 quit this subject In disgust. 1 find that I havo
been In a dissecting room, operating upon n dead dog. I
will treat him as an insane man, who never learned de
cency aud propriety of conduct; whoso conduct shows
that he haa never mingled with gentlemen. Let him rave
on till doomsday, and 1 will not descend lower than 1 have
to notice him.

Some apprehensions are felt in Havana of another Cu

The Eighteen* Anti-Slafitry Bataar waa held In Boo-
ton aomo days ago, when contribution! were received
from varioua towns and socloUoa in England and Scotland.
These contributions, which amount to a good round sum,
In the aggregate, are to bo expended, under tho direction
ortho abollUonlsts la thU country, for tho emancipation
of their colored enperiore of tho South. Aa Senators Sr-
wand nnd Douglass advocato a certain spcclca of Inter
vention by this couutry In tho affairs of Europe, theso
trans-AtlonUo and transcendental philanthropist* Imitate
them by intervening In tho domestic concerns of tho slave-
holding Slates. If gravo Senators may urge a great nation
to Interfere In the quarrels of European powers, why tuny
not crazy individuate bo allowed, In view or so author!
lativo a precedent, lo tntcrpoeo between tho muster nnd
Ids slave, to foment Insurrection, and to kindle the Urea of
servllo war? If governments may adopt such n policy,
why can not Individuals do so likewise ?
Thus Uio sentimental philanthropists licyond llio At
lantic reason—and henco the fovor with which the aboli
tionists In this country 1 regard tho doctrines of Kossuth.
Knowing there must ho an ebb to every tide, thoy are
eager lo establish Iho principle of Interposition In Iho caso
of Hungary, aa it will ftmdsh a precedent for the Interfer
ence, not only of tho Northern States, but of nil foreign
governments likewise, with the Institutions of tho South,
if wo may Intervene In behalf of Hungary, why may not
England, nnd Frauce, und Russia, and all other powers
combined, interpose for tho slavo of tho South, and com
pel u«, by force, to give him that freedom which wo hnve
Interfered to glvo to another people ? It l* for this reason
that Northern abolitionists hall tho advent of Kossuth
as the apostle of universal liberty. They consider him
tho friend of emancipation every where, and, therefore,
as the chlcfoat of abolitionists.
Now, Wo do not beiievo that Kossuth entertains tho
most remote dcsigu against our Institutions, nor that ho
desires to connect himself In any way with tho sectional
controversy pending In this country; but such are tho
“base uses” to which tho mad men and mad women of
the North,—the crazy abolitionists,—seek to apply his
policy nnd his influence. Even admitting that tho policy
of interfering In the caso of Hungary, abstractly consid
ered, Is Just and correct, still we should bo Justified In
opposing it, if wo hnd reason to suppose thut Its advocates
iutended, at some future time, to turn It against our Insti
tutions. But this la not the chief reason why Southern
men are opposed to the Hungarian crusado; but few
men havo looked Utus far Into tho subject. Tito mnln
cause of their opposition is to be found In the general
prevalence of conservatism among tho great masses of
our people. Happily, they are exempt from tho wild
vagaries and destructive theories which haunt tho Imagi
nations of the tsin-mongere beyond the Potomac. Wo
have uo socialists among us, no anti-renters, abolitionists,
communists, polygamists, female lecturers, “harmonial
circles,” and sickly sentimentalists. Sound, wholesome
common sense pervades Southern society, and prevents
tho growth nnd spread of that ctherlal, hot-houso philan
thropy which produces so many Isms aud flourishes so
luxuriantly elsewhere. That tho great body of our Northern
brethren are exempt from these irregularities, wo are glad
to acknowledge; but, unfortunately, there Is an active
and restless class of Ihst men and that women among
them, sufficient in number to rise to tho dignity of being
contemptible, who loso no opportunity to render them
selves, as well os their innocent and more sober neigh
bors, os ridiculous as possible. Tho pruriency of their
virtue is equalled only by tho spuriousness of their
patriotism.
Further than this, tho southern people are opposed to
Kossutu’s policy, because they believe It Is wrong in
principle, and that It would involve the country In a long
and bloody foreign war, the end and consequences of
which the wisest statesmanship cannot foresee. It would
neither benefit us, nor help on tho cause or republican
ism In Europe. Liberty, like frith, Is not to bo propa
gated by tho sword., Though a hardy plant, It grows only
in n vigorous soil anil a pure atmosphere, nnd can not bo
pushed forward to precocious maturity by any of tho arti
ficial processes hitherto discovered by amatour patriots.
Unfortunately, men havo to bo educated to liberty, before
they ore capable of enjoying, much less of appreciating
It. It has its laws and its principles, as well aa virtue and
religion, and there laws can no more be violated In tlio
one without derangement*than in the other. Liberty, to
be worth possessing, must bo regulated liberty; other
wise It Is tho license or Iho mob. Freedom cun no more
dispense with law than can despotism; It l» as essential
to the one as to the other
„ ills pay for work which he did not do. _
he (he proper person lo lecture men In this House, or nny
negro, or free negro out of it ? Docs it not cotne with
an 111 grace from that source? We have had enough of
this. As to another matter. He got up hero to-day, on a
motion to print the resolutions of tho Legislature of New
Jersey, anu delivered his views on slavery nnd the slave
trade; thus Interrupting the whole order of business.
This question was interrupted—by whom ? By the run
away member, wbo goes home to secure his own elec
tion, and leave, for his port, the public business to tuke
care of itselt Ho says that llio subject of his dinner is
the greatest one which I over discussed. I havo discuss
ed one smaller, and that Is the subject of the honorable
member himself. [Laughter.] And this has been forced
upon me by his own insolent conduct In the House. As
he has thought proper to refer to an internal Improve
ment bill, every member of the laat Houso will beur me
out In tho assertion that ho did more than any strict con
structionist In the body to defeat it. Ills support is death
to any measure. Ho makes a bill odious.
Mr. Giddinos.—i am rejoiced that llie gentleman does
mo the Justice to say that 1 can do more tlinn fitly mem
bers. There were not filly voles against the bill. I hnve
Just been told thut there was a majority of only sixteen
on its final passage. I am glad that the gentleman has
arraigned me on this point. When I cumo here tho
whole system of Internal Improvements wus disbnnded,
It was difficult to ro-organlze tho system lu President
Polk’s time; yet wo got a bill through both Houses which
met tbo Cite of a veto. And, for the sins of President
Polk, tho gentleman arraigns me. At tho lust session
there was a triumphant inujority in Its favor In this
House, where I make my speeches nnd exert my influ
ence, ir 1 have any. When tho gentleman descends to
low vulgnrity 1 cannot follow him. He removes all ob
stacles In going down, aud uo decent man can follow
him. I therefore will not. As the gentleman hns been
■elected to speak for the scrvlles of the North, 1 will say
to him that, os the bill passed, my district recclvod
double than it ever did before under the administration
of my distinguished predecessor, nnd no man stood high
er In this House than he. The bill, however, went to the
Senate, and met with a factious opposition. ' [Perceiving
several gentlcnfsn conversing with Mr. Htanly.J I protest

Several large public sales havo taken place during tho
week, and tho result seems to hnve been sirtlsfrctory lo
all concerned. Tho public sales, it is remarked, luivu
commenced much earlier this scuson than usual; but thus
frr, they are limited to goods which it Is considered de
sirable to got rid of before the new stylos are Introduced,

Tho transactions In speculative stocks during the week
havo been quite heavy, aiid a material advanco has, In
several instances, been realized. Tho more promlneut
securities have rather an upward tendency, and there is
a steady good demand; though tho purchases for foroigu
account, as evidenced by llie Insignificant nmount of
transfers of United States stocks at Washington, have
almost entirely ceased; and on tho contrary considerable
amounts havo been recently returned from Europo for

It affords us pleasure to state that Mr. AIacfuemon B.
Millen has been appointed Superintendent of tho Cen
tral Railroad, In place of Air. Wadley who has recently
token charge of the Atlantic and Western or St&io
Road. Mr. Millen wus engaged for several years ou
Hie Central Road, and more recently has been on
the Waynesboro’ Railroad as assistant engineer, In
which capacity he has given the highest satisfaction.—
He is considered by railroad incu os one of the most
promising engineers of hln age any where in Iho South.
It gives us pleasure to mention this fuel, particularly as
Air. Millen is a resident and native of this city. It is To
be regretted that more of the young men of the day do
not becomo engineers und machinists. The time is fast
passing away for determining the position of q man by
the whiteness of his hand nnd the success with which
he ucquits himself aa a polka dunce?. The machinist,
who Is able to plan, manufacture, or superintend the
construction of tho machinery whereby Immense facto
ries are put in motiou, and monster steamships propelled,
and the engineer who has the capacity nnd skill to con
struct und manage vast systems of railway—Iron rivers
along which flow the unceasing streams of travel and
commerce—have legitimate causo to be proud when they
contemplate the stupendous work of their hands and the
benefits which ’they have conferred on their country'*

Tut Arctic Search.—Lieut. Wilkes, in reply to in
quiries which have been directed to him In relation to
the plan he suggested for the search uflcr Sir John Frank
lin, In a communication to' the editors of tho Nntionnl
Intelligencer, explains the mode In which ho would pro
pose the search should bo carried on. Tho first desidera
tum in tho search ho holds to bo to avoid as far as possible
tho risking of more vnluablo lives In llio attempt to render
a*sistanco to those who mnv have already perished. The
second, to render relief as speedy nnd effective ns possible.
Believing the search by vessels to be futile, ho proposes
to employ them only to convey men and provisions to the
harbor on Wellington Channel, where Sir John Franklin
and his expedition passed tho winter of 1845-’4fi. There
be proposes to place a temporary colony of from four to
five hundred men, provided with nil the means necessary,
viz; Hedges, boat*. See., of tho best nnd most npproprinle
construction ; nnd for this temporary colony to retnuin
until the whole arctic region Is searched In all directions
from this point. ThU force, he believes, would be ade
quate to make an effectual exploration in two seasons,
and be subject to no more risk than what may bo en
countered in such climates, wljch by experience of
former expeditions have not been found to bo subject to
greater casualties than other portions of the globe.
In reference to llie plan thus proposed Ideut. W. says
he has fuU confidence In its practlcablllly, nnd that wheth
er It result successftilly In tho humnno object of nffordlug
relief to the missing voyagers, or only In adding contri
butions to our knowledge of the Arctic regions, It must
still prove highly honorable to our country. He has al
ready submitted a memorial to Congress directing their
utleulion to Uio proposed plan of scorch, nnd invoking
their uld in carrying It out.

Tho debate in tho Senate on tho subject of intervention
was continued yesterday, In n masterly nnd brilliant
speech, by Mr. Clemens, of Alabama. Air. Clemens is
ono of the most promising men In Congress, as an orator.
He has a fino voice und mi impressive manner, and a flu
ent mid graceful elocution. Theso udvantuges,'great us
Iheyare,lie does notso much rely upon os on a terso und
sententious style, and condensed statement und argument.
Ills speochet ure, therefore, brief and readable, as well as
effective In their delivery. The viows nnd arguments of
Mr. Clemens, ngulusl intervention In foreign affairs, uro
sound, clear und convincing.
Tho debuto-ls to bo resumed on Monday week, though
n motion to postpone It till Hie Aral Monday in April
failed.
Col. Alexander Hamilton hus mado a publication, claim
ing Washington): Farewell Address os the production of
his fattier. The orignal, known ns tho Cluypoolo copy, Is
In Washington’s hand-writing, but It Is alleged that this
Hon. James Buchanan, or Pennsylvania, reached Rich
mond on Wednesday, to spend a few dnys with Judgo
Mason, one ofhls colleagues In President Pclk’s Cabinet.
Hon. Thomas" J. Rusk, U, S. Senator from Texas, avows
his preference for Gen. Houston for President.
In tlio Massachusetts Senate a Committee hns been ap
pointed to inquire what action shall be taken to procure
the restoration to freedom of tho four negroes, citizens
of MaMachusetls, who were recently sold into slavery In
Galveston, Texas, for attempting to atxlucl staves.
General Houston is at tho North, und seems to linvo
found special favor with the temperance men, at whoso
recent excited meetings he has prominently figured. Ho
may be the candidate of Hie exclusive tempcranco party.
Tlio Maine liquor low Is now a political hobby Inseve-
rai of the Northern States. It takes well wherever pro
pon'd. The law Is likely to be adopted by tho legislature
or New-York. AU the political and moral excitement*
commence at the East and travel rapidly to the West.
The liquor law of Maine will become a hobby in half of
the States of Hie Union.
copy Is from n draft furnished by Hamilton. The Colonel
states that ho Is able to prove this statement. Thu only
satisfactory evidence would bo the production of tho draft
said to hnve lieen copied by Washington und returned to
Hamilton. Tho foot is, probably, thut Washington, after
muklng his draft, sent It to Hurnillon for his cmeudullons
und suggestions, and Hmt he adopted Ills corrections and
additions.
Washington’s letter to Patrick Henry, embodying some
of the tmmo views and sentiments us uro contained In thu
F'arewell Address, was of a dnte prior to tho Address.
Somo of the Ideas und phrases contained In the Address
may bo found In tho writings of Governor Pownall, In re
gard to the prospects und future policy of America. Gov.
Pownull was Governor, nt different times, of tho Colonies
of South-Carol Ins, Massachusetts, nnd Now-Jersey, mid
went to Flnglnud In 1062. There can be no doubt that
Tho project for the establishment of a lino of innll
steamers between New-York and. Galway receives some
favor. Two projects nro now liefore the Post Office com-
More of the Bloomer Costume.
Our renders will remember the amiable controversy
carried on In tho Republican- some weeks ago between
Dorothy Prim and her friend Tabitha Tape, on the ono
part, and the .Van with Moustaches, on the other, In rela
tion to the origin of the Bloomer costume. We have fallen
upon on extract which hns satisfied us, that the costume
is neither peculiar to this century nor to Christendom.
Pepys, In Ills celebrated diary, published In 1602, descri
bing the female costumo of his duy, says:
“The women wear doublets, coats, nnd great shirts,
Jnst for all llie world like mine; so thut, only for a petti
coat draggling under their skirts, nobody could lake Uiem
for women in any way whatever.”
It is related also that Sir John Ross, the celebrated
Arctic voyager, on being shown a print of llie Bloomer
costume, recognized It immediately as the female Esqui
maux dress, quaintly uddlng: “Silks Instead of seals,
that's all.” Lieut. GmrriN, In his lecture Monday
night on Iho Arctic Expedition, referred to the tamo (act.
The Esquimaux women, lie said, wore shorter dresses than
any hu hnd ever seeu In print in tills couutry. Tills may
account for another fact which he staled, Hmt they learned
to dunce tho polka with great facility.
A writer thus Hamltti-.es thu costume:
Tho Committee of Arrangements for Hie American Art
Union Lottery havo just announced that the drawing will
positively take place on the 30lh of March, next month.
The Ixindon Morning Chronicle stntcs thut the King of
the Belgians <ui'l husband of thu daughter of Ixiuls Phil-
lippe, hus prote-ted against the decree of Louis Napoleon,
and that similar protests will be made by Spain, Naples,
Iho Brazils, nnd Haxe^obnrg.
A committee of gentlemen^'frequcntlng Liverpool, ure
engaged In getting up n public subscription, for the pur
pose of presenting a suitable testimonial to Cupt. Kns-ell,
of tho Americau ship Empire State, by whoso bravo ond
humane efforts Hie whole of the passengers of tho Ill-fated
Lccd’s steamer were rescued from tlieir perilous situa
tion.
mltteeoftho House; one offered by Mr. A. W. Thompson
or Philadelphia, and llie other by Mr. Tibbetts of N. York.
Tho latter Is most favored by the committee, ond they
will report a bill for making a contract with Tibbetts’ Com
pnny, on tho terms they offer; Hint is, to mako twenty-flvo
or twenty-six trips each way, for thesum of ten thousand
dollars the round trip. The arguments In favor of tho pro
ject are, that tho route to Galway is shorter Hum nny
other, and will bring to Now-York llio nows from Liver
pool and London quicker than by tho Cunard or Collins
steamers. When tbo telegraphic communication shall bo
complete between llalifuxund St. Johns, in Newfound
land, thu Galway line will enable us to got news from
England in six days.
A gentleman hus arrived hero from London, as tho

To wear or not to wear the Bloomer costume, Ural's tho
question.
Whether ’III nobler In ns girls to suffer
Tlio Inconveniences of the long skirt dress,
Or cut It off against these muddy troubles,
And, by Iho cutting, end them. Tla u consummation
Devoutly to bo wished. To don the punts:—
The pants! jierchanco the boots! Aye, there's tho rub!
F’or In thoso pants and boots what Jeers may come
When we Iravo shuttled off these untold skirts,
Must glvo us pause. There’s (ho respect
Thut niukos calamity of so long a costume,
F’or who could bear tho sconi* and Jeers of boys—
The old muid’s scandal—the young mun’a laughter,
llie sidelong leers, and derision’s mock,
The insolent press, und all Hie spurns
Wo Uloumers of these boobies take ?
Who would tho old dress wear,
To groan nnd loll under the weary load,
But that the dread of something after It—
Of ankles inrge, of crooked legs, from which
Not ull escape, puzzle* thu will,
And makes us rather wear tho dress we have
Hum turn out Bloomers?

Gkn. Scott orrtRZD the I’rciidency or Mexico,—
The Ncw-Orlenns Delta refers to a fact in tho history of
(ten. Scott that we have never seen mentioned before.
H states that an offer wns made to him when lu the city
of Slexlco, after its capture, by several of tho wealthiest
persons In Hie Republic—to maintain him as president
of tlmt republic, with as much of hi* army ss would bo
willing to remain In the country, uiltll tlio government
could be organised, and tho country restored to prosperi
ty, pcnco and order. As mi inducement to accept this
offer, these gentlemen bound themselves lo setUo upon
him the sum of ono million of dollars. This splendid
offer was dccllnod by tho General, with scarcely a mo-
meat's consideration. Tho merit of tills sacrifice (says
Uio Delta) appears tho greater from a consideration of
tho narrow circumstances of Gen. SfcoTT, who, for tho
laat twenty years, lias hud but a comparatively small sal*
ary to maintain himself and Hie necessary dignity of hla
position.
Gov. Foote, of Bjississippl,has writfona letter,decli

Ho says nothing of being a candidate for tho longterm,
