Sunday,’' or the Sunday next prered
ing Easter —so called in commemoration
of our Savior’s triumphal entry into
Jerusalem, when the multitude strewed
palm branches in his way. According
to the Jewish calendar, Nisam begins on
the ICth of March; to-morrow, the 30th.
is the beginning of the Passover, and
the 31st the second feast or morrow of
the Passover. The last two are strictly
observed by members of the Jewish ;
Church. '

Fidelity.
A letter writer says Mr. Harris has !
been removed to Judge Douglas’shouse,
as it is more comfortable than his lodg
ings. He is far gone in consumption.
His abscenc will be severely felt in the
Lecompton debate, but bis vote will
not be lost, for be means to be carried
to the House when the vote is taken, ,
however ill he may be.
r The second meeting of the credi- j 1
tors of Lawrence, Stone & Co., was j
held in Boston on the 25th inst., and i
upwards of eighty claims were proved, 1
amounting to about $040,000. This ,
sum, with the claims proved at the |
previous meeting, makes the aggregate 1
claims against them $2,800,000.

The Lorliig Removal.
With no exceptions that arc worth j
the trouble of chronicling, the remo
val of Judge Loring has called forth
none but the regret and condemnation
of the press, even of New England.—
The New York Timet, certainly as friend
ly to the party of which Mr. Banks pre
tends to be the leader, as any other pa
per in New York—much more a friend
than the Tribune, by the Advertiser's con
fession —remarks that “this act of Gov
ernor Banks is the grossest attack upon
the independence of the judiciary ever
witnessed in the United States. It will
long maintain, as we trust, its bad em
inence.” The press of Boston very gen
erally comment editorially upon the re
moval. The hedger says :
The quibbling excuse of “incompati
bility” which was trumped np by his
column message to the Legislature, is
not thick enough to conceal the reid
motive and design. Mr. Banks, we all
remember, charged President Pierce, in
a speech’ in Faneuil Hall last autumn,
with coming down from his place at the
bidding of a higher power, meaning
the Slave Power; to-day he exhibits to
the freemen of the Commonwealth at
whose bidding he lias himself come
down. Whether it is baser—proceed
ing on bis own statement—to come
down at the bidding of what be terms
the “Slave Power,” or at that of arash, j
factious radical and insane party whose
acknowledged leaders are a disgraced
black man and Mr. Garrison—let every
one be his own best judge.
The end is not yet; the Governor
may be sure of that. We predicted
that before the week is over, he would
hear his condemnation spoken all the
way from the Cape to the Berkshire Hill.
And if he lives the week out he cer
tainly will.

Trouble In the South Carolina Col
lege.
We regret to learn that the troubles
in the South Carolina College have bro
ken out afreib, a large number of stu
dents Lave been suspended from the
privilege of the institution for several
months. We are in possession of no
particulars of the difficulty, and present
the following paragraph from the Caro-
Unian of Saturday :
We regret to state that, on yesterday,
the Faculty found it necessary to sus
pend ninety-seven students of the South
Carolina College until the first of
October next, and five until the first of
May. Wo understand the ostensible
cause of the difficulty was the refusal
of the Faculty to allow a suspension of
College exercises, on Thanksgiving day
under municipal recommendation.—
Upon the professors going to Chapel
and recitation, on Thursday morning,
the benches were found tarred, where
upon the order was given by the profes
sors to the classes to attend at their pri
vate offices to recite. The Junior and
Freshman classes, with few exceptions,
obeyed the order—the Seniors and So
phomores mostly declined doing so.—
When called before the Faculty, with
much unanimity they declined respond
-1 ing to ipiestious. The act of discipline
which followed wasnecessary to uphold
the essential authority of the govern
ment, in which the Faculty was unani
mous.
Judge Douglas* Closing Speech.
Judge Douglas delivered his closing
speech in the Kansas debate Monday
night, to one of the largest and most
imposing audiences ever assembled in
side the walls of the Senate. The ro
tunda and lobbies were crammed, and
the Vice President issued orders that no
Senator should be called out, on ac-1
count of the difficulty of egress. Mr.
Douglas upon entering the chamber was
received with loud and enthusiastic ap
plause, which he deprecated by shaking, ?
his head and making gestures to stop.
There was not one foot of room in the 1
galleries, and the reporters were over
run. All the seats on the floor were '
occupied, and the windows near the '
roof were filled. The spectator galle '
lies were nearly all filled by ladies, most
of whom remained over recess at four
o’clock, and continue through the whole
sitting until half-past eleven. On mo
tion of Mr. Gwin the ladies were ad
mitted to the floor, and in a few min
utes it was crowded with them. Some
idea of the interest attaching to the
speech may be gleaned from the state
ment of the telegraph, received during
the progress of its delivery.
“ 10.30—Our messenger has returned '
from the Capitol, and says there is no
earthly chance of communication with
the reporters for the Associated Tress,
the crowd be'iig so very great. All
approaches to the floor and gallery are
perfectly inaccessible We can do noth
ing but wait until Mr. Douglas gets '
through with his speech, when the
crowd will disperse.”
He closed with an apology for the de
sultory manner of his remarks, as his
physical strength was weak, and with ‘
difficulty lie could speak. If he had said
anything that appeared disrespectful 5
or unkind he regretted it. The last few
sentences were quite inaudible. He sat !
down amidst much applause, 1
Tile Mormons.
A writer in the Missouri Republican ,
speaking of the “Mormon difficulty and
its solution,” states that the easiest ,
mode of getting lid of the Mormon dis |
Acuity would be to have Joseph Smith,
the son of the first propagator and
Prophet, appointed to the 'high priest- f
enev. The writer says “he is now .
about twenty four years of age, of ac t
tive intellect, steady nerve, and is a j
good judge of human nature. As we
before said, he at present resides at c
Nauvoo, in this State. He looks upon |
the present difficulties between bis peo- r
pie and our Government with very j
much regret, and as brought about by
the usurpation and abuse of power on ,
tlie part of those now nominally at tlie i
bead of his people, which may to some
extent have been encouraged or has
tened by the imprudencies of officials
hitherto sent out among them. He be
lieves that it is not his people, but a few ,
leaders and officials in the Church who
are responsible for all the present diffi
culties ; and lie feels that it is his duty
to protect his people by assuming his
proper position among them, as their
leader, and requiring them to submit
to the civil power of this Government
It is our belief, vxUfounded, that lie will
at an early day, probably in the coming ,
spiing, assume his position among this
people as the head of the Church,
though no definite expression of this
j kind has yet been used by him to our
| knowledge—he seeming to be inclined
to keep bis counsels.”
Danger of liurning Flulti.
Another dreadful death from burning
fluid occurred in Reading,Pa., on Thurs
day morning last. The victim was a
young girl, named Angeline Lees, em
ployed as a domestic in the family of
Mr. Albert Miller. On the evening pre
ceding the fatal occurrence, she was ob
served filling a iluid lamp that was
burning, and was warmed by Mrs. Mil
ler of the great risk she incurred, and
told lier never to do so again. Ou the
very next morning, at 5 A. M., Mr. Mil
ler and his wife were roused from sleep
by piercing cries proceeding from the
girl's chamber, and on hastening to her
relief found her enveloped in tlie flames
she was immediately wrapped in a piec
ofcarpectand the flames subdued, but
her injuries were so severe that she
died soon after in great agony. The
deceased was sixteen years of age.

Wealth oe the United States.—The
aggregate wealth of the United States
amounts to $12,000,000,000, and the
population is 24,000.000, of souls. The
wealth, divided by the population, gives
SSOO to each person, young and old ;
and, conn tingti v e persons t< > each fam i ly,
it would give the handsome little for

senate,
The business transacted tlie morning
hour was unimportant, except that on
the presentation of the anti-slavery res
olutions from the State of Maine.
Mr. Mason objected to them in strong
terms as disrespectful to Congress,the
Judiciary and to the President. Mr
Fessenden warmly defended them, say
ing that lie endorsed them fully.
Tlie resolutions were laid upon the
table and ordered to be printed.
Mr. Seward presented similar anti
slavery remonstrance, but couched in
temperate language, from the Society
of Friends assembled at New York.
Mr. Iverson made an ineffectual effort
to take up the army bill, and the con
sideration of the Minnesota bill was
therefore resumed.
The Senate proceeded to the consider
j ation of the bill for the admission of
j ti:e State of Minnesota into the Union ;
but without taking action, the Senate
went into an Lxecutive session.
HOUSE.
Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, proposed
an early day for the consideration of
the Senate Kansas bill. He thought it
best to have an understanding in or
der that up body may be taken by sur
prise.
Mr. Campbell said tlie House had
been debating the question involved
in the bill for nine years and nearly all
this session. This Kansas question
blocks up public as well as pri
vate business. He was therefore ready
to meet the question to-day or to
morrow with or without further de
bate.
He thought Jit due to tlie interests of
the country that the House should
come to a vote. He suggested that by
common consent they agree to take up
the bill to-morrow.
Mr. Washburne, of Illinois, and oth
ers objected on the ground that the
House was unusually thin. When there
was a full attendance they could by
common consent fix the day.
Mr. Stephens having been asked by
several to indicate a day, named next
Tuesday week.
Mr. Campbell suggested next Tues
day.
Mr, Stephens said be thought it too
short a time.
Mr. Campbell said the House having
agreed to the first Monday in June for
a final adjournment it would bo impos
sible to get through the public business
by that time, unless the earliest possi
ble day be fixed for the vote ou the Kan
sas bill.
Mr. Montgomery said lie lmd no
doubt that if the matter was not now
passed, an arrangement might be made
satisfactory to all parties.
Mr. Stephens withdrew his suggestion
for the present in the belief that such
an agreement could be made. When
tlie day was fixed he would announce
it.
Mr. Glancy Jones made an ineffectual
effort to report a bill from the Commit
tee of Ways and Means regulating the
mode and manner of collecting and dis
bursing the public revenue.
The House then went into com
mute ou tlie deficiency appropriation
bill.
Mr. Peyton made aj speech on the
Kansas question.
Mr. Reily spoke in favor of the ad
mission of Kansas ; Mr. Grow took the
opposite side.
Mr. Thayer occupied his hour in
speaking against slavery.
Other gentlemen addressed the Com
mittee and the House adjourned.
Washington, March 26, 1858.
SENATE.
The Senate was not in session yester
day.
HOUSE.
Mr. Washburne, of Illinois, offered a
resolution, which was adopted,instruct
ing the Committee on Public Lauds to
inquire whether the main trunk of the
Dubuqe and Sioux City Railroad lias
been completed, and intersects with the
branch, in conformity with the act of
Congress appropriating lands for that
purpose in Iowa; and that the Commit
tee report such action as they may deem
proper in the premises.
Tlie various Committees wore called,
and reported a large number of private
bills; which were appropriately re
ferred.
The House being in Committee of
tlie Whole on the state of tlie Union,
on the Deficiency Appropriation bill.
Mr. Smith, of Virginia, made a
speech in favor of the admission of Kail
as under the Lecompton Constitution ;
receiving as a test of Democracy, the
support of that measure. He said he
had been informed by the successor of
General Richardson that a portion of
the Illinois delegation had a meeting,
and with Stephen A. Douglas, came to
the conclusion that opposition to Le
compton was tlie only way to secure
the re-election of Mr. Douglas to the
Senate.
Mr. Marshall, of Illinois, was not
aware of such ameeting, and pronounced
the statement wholly unfounded.
The debate was further continued,
and the House adjourned.

Sharp Piutllfe.
About two weeks ago a "knapsack
pedlar’’ went into Black Hole Valley,
this county, with a large lot of watches
and jewelry, and succeeded in selling
and trading off a large quantity of his
trash to the honest and unsuspecting
citizens of the valley. After disposing
of all he could he took the balance oi
his stock and pledged it with Mr. Hess
for £45, promising to return in about a
week to redeem it. The week elapsed,:
but instead of returning as promised he i
was followed by another Individual,
doubtless a confederate, who claimed
all the property, sllegjig that it had
been stolen, and the persons with whom
he had succeeded in trading were made
to believe that all was fair, and gave
up the property, with asingle exception.
'lbis is but one of the many gamut now

(f" The Great P r olilein
. Solved I—PR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR-
I ltTAt.—Tho dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
■ l»as lost the power of duly converting food into a
t life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
j course of this extraordinary tunic. The gastric
’ fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
; wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
I acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux ;
j or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter !
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j
paralysis, borne do\vu and dispirited by that j
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of j
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain j
or disability arising from the unnatural condition i
of the wonderfbl machinery which connects ev- |
cry member with the source of sensation, mo- j
tion and thought—derives i turnedi to benefit j
from the use of this Cordial, which at once calms, i
invigorates and regulates tho shattered nervous j
j organization.
| Females who have tried it are unanimous in j
! declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that :
woman has ever received from the hards of
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and aston'shing effect upon the appetite.
While it renews the strength of the digestive ;
powers it creates a desire for the solid material ;
which is to he subjected to their action. As an i
appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long lilc and the vigor necessary to its en
joy meat aro desirable, this medicine is indeed of j
‘ precious worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either j
| sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing j
j wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn \
! man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or frum the weakness of a single organ
will all find immcdlateand permanent relief from
the u-e of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
! will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible milady. There are many
perhaps who have so trilled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach |
'of medicine. Let not even those despair. The;
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re |
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
> tho di-ordor itself, but rebuild the broken con
j stitution

H«?°A Liver Remedy.—We!
wish to say to every person who reads tins tluit ! _
there is an article known as Dr. San ford's In \
vxgorator , or Liver Remedy, which can be relied !
ou as certain to cure fiver complaint ir. any ot | •
its forms, such as Jaundice, Dyspepsia, and nu
merons other Complaints, described in another ,
colutnn, besides which it is one of the greatest <
preparations or cures for consumption, taken in ;
early stages, that is now known.
We take it for granted, as experiment has prr - 1
ven that diseases of the lungs are not generalh
the first cause of consumption, but a debilitated |'
system, caused by the improper action of the'
liver, which reduces the power of the lun s to '
resist or throw off diseases caused by cold and
irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this *
disease, because the liver has incapacitated
them from performing their proper action ts
throwing off diseased matter caused by cold.
Thus to prevent consumption, cure the liver
and keep the system strong enough to throw off
sight diseases ot the lungs.
There is not in the world a better liver reme
dy or a euro for debilitated system than Dr.
Sanford’s luvigorator, for it has been fully tried j
m a large and extended practice till its results
ire fully known, and now it Is offered as a tried
remedy , and one that can bo relied on.— Lan- \
caster Whig. mb9
