TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY- A bill went through the lower House of Congraa* yesterday to admit building material tnto Boston free and then took up the bill for the ten sloops of war. Mr Archer, a member of the nural committee, advocated the bill as a matter of necessity, the navy of the United Slates being now In arottou and ruinous condition. Ha ad mitted that there was nothing to be feared from the great powers, but the people whom It was desired to impress with the greatness of this country were the acini •ivlllzed nation of the world. It svns fur that object more than any other that these vessels were required. Various amendments, snob as requiring half the number to be built in private shipyards requiring plans and estimates to he reported to Congress and an appro priation made before the work is com wauced, to modify the provision in regnrd to guns, so as to make it read not exceed ing ten gttns, reducing the number of ves sels to lie coustiucted from ten to six. wore agreed to, end the bill passnd Mr. Pomeroy introduced a bill to pro hibit tbs sal.-, or manufacture, or Inqioria tiou of intoxicating liquors in the District of Columbia or In the Territories.

Ouf National Banking system hss Its Irieuds and Us ensmies Whatever may be said of Its defects, os compared wltb any system heretofore In vogue in this couutry, it is an Improvement. Tbc old safety fund system of New Turk, sujier seded by tbs Free Banking Iv.v of ti.ul Hlate. worked welt for the people The present National system however is tbs outgrowth of this latter, greatly elab orated end improved. In reading the recent reports, on the National system we arc not a little gratified to observe to few failures, and so little loss attending its administration. We find ouly twenty-one banks, organ ized in eleven different States, with an aggregate capital $4,236,100, have failed since its organization in 1803. The total circulation of these hanks was $_’,942,703, of which $2.4 )1,430 has been redeemed in full, leaving a balance still outstanding of $501,363, which will also be redeemed upon presentation to the Treasurer of the United States, from the avails of United States bonds held as security for that pur pose. Of these hanks, live have been finally closed (two during the past year), having paid dividends to their creditors During the year pust six failures are reported Of these, the Union Square National Bank, New York , tiro Fourth National Bunk, Fhiladr Iphia and the Waverly National Bank, New York, have puld their creditors in fhll—a settlement, it is believed, without n precedent in the history of Bunking in America Tire Eighth National Bunk, New York, has paid a dividend of 50 per cent . the Ocean National Hank, New York, n dividend of 70 per cent, and the receivers of tire Ocean National Bunk, and of the First Nationul Bank of Fort Smith. Ark . esti mate that the creditors of both these hanks will ultimately receive a dividend of 100 cents on the dollar. The Venanago National Bank of Frank lilt, I’eun . the Merchant*’ National Bank of Washington, D. (’ , the First National Bank of Selma. Ala., and the First National Bank of New Orleans, were United State* depositories. The final dividend in favor of the creditors of the First National Bunk of Vicksburg lias been unexpectedly delayed by the recent presentation of a claim of the United States for money *1 leged to have been been illegally deposited by tbe Collector of Internal Revenue of Ural district, in the year IKGB Since that time no losses have occurred to the Gov ernment by deposits made in the national bnnks, although many millions of dollara have been continually on deposit with bnnks which are designated as daposlto ries The three first named bnnks. at tbe time of their failure, had a large amount of Government funds on drqrosit. Wkii.yan Female Coli.kok.—For want of space ive are compelled to leave out to-day Dr. Myers appeal for additional will fur this time honored and most worthy institution.

The latest feat in journalism is to steal (lie press dispatches and then boast of it ns a smart game. This llie Atlanta Her ald, an insignificant journal of Hie lower aide of civilization, seems to glory iu The Rome Commercial ha* this to <y to tho point We have to enter our unqualified con demnation of tiro manner iu which Mr. St. Clair-Abrams boasts that lie obtained the press dispatclirs and thereby compelled his adversaries to sell them to him at hi* own price. For a cool piece of effrontery Ibis boast surpasses anything we have ever read of. A man exploits Hi# properly of another to compel him to tell it to him at Ins own price, and then comes before tbe public ant) boasts of it a* a smart piece of jour nalistic enterprise. We much mistake the lone and temper of the Southern press, if it does not at one voice condemn mis act of Mr. St. Clair-Abram* as disreputable to the profession and deserving the graven censure.
