A Washington dispatch of the 19th says : The. House entertained and veryun expectedl.y passed this morning, with out debate, a joint resolution fur the adjournment of Congress on the Thursday in May. The date was thus left blank for the consideruti m ut the Senate. When the resolution reach ed the t body it was immediately refer red to the Committee on Finance, . which has the largest amount of busi ness before it. There is avert st> eng imposition on the part cf many of the ■ members of the House to effect an ad j urnment as early as June 1. The business in the House, so far as the Ap- propriation bills are concerned, is pret ty will under way, all have passed ex cept the Civil, Judicial and Legisla tive, which were under consideration to-day. But there is yet much to do. Not a measure has been matured and carried from the Ways and Means and Banking Committees. So we are yet have the Loan Bill, Internal Revenue Tar ffs, Reciprocity, Banking amend ments, Bankrupt law, several contested elections, ana the whole Reconstruc tion business. ——— -r- ♦ ♦ • ‘ - ■- Tiie Dodn'iic of Shlli iikc The N. V. Times, which has, for the most part, thrown, aside its negro wor shipping spectacles and can see tilings in a rational light, has the following very just views on the subject of suf frage. They have often been present ed in these columns, but are new com ing Rom the present source : Almost all reflecting men are begin ning to see that the whole matter of suffrage is a pure question of expedi ency. It can be given, or withheld, or limited, according as the best inter ests ot the State demand. The claim to it is not like the claim to liberty or legal justice, a natural right. We wit n hold it from many a deserving young man between 17 and 21, and still tin re deserving wom.cn, and from oertaiu foreigner , because we judge that oe a broad scale society will be the better off for the limitation. We give it unreservedly to all free white male citizens over 21, because our the. ory has been that the edifcating b Ali enee cf suffrage and its equalizing ef fect, and its attraction to the peasan try of Europe, will more th: n counter balance the evils of our igno’ant and debased voting population. The great weakness in the position of our friends, demanding universal suffrage f r the freedmen, was in the general opinion ol the North that we had gone too far with even white suffrage; and that what we had felt the evils cf, in our own system, we ought not to cxleud to Southern society. Hon. Garrett Davis, Senator from Kentucky in a debate in the Senate ou the 2d inst., is reported in the Tribune to have uttered the fol lowing language : Mr. Davis then took the floor in op position to the concurrent resolution, denying its constitutionality, Ac , as serting that it was revolutionary in its character, subversive of the Govern, ment, and-a dissolution of the Union of the two Houses of Congress, In conclusion, Mr. Davis said that the Southern Senators, and those who were in favor cf receiving them in the Senate, constituted a majority of the whole number of Senators. If these two united, the Presid nt could e mmunicate with them as the consti tutional body, and by the Eternal 1 he would advise him to do it to-morrow. He would be clearly right in doing so. He would sooner trust the Southern Senators as the friends of the coun try than those who were for keeping them out. The President has the remedy in his hand, and ought to use it. There was no plainer [ rinciple of law than that the President would have the right, in case the Southern Senator- came here and went into session with those who were in favor of admitting them to decide whether it was or was not the constitutional Senate. If a person faints, place him on his back and let him alone; be wants ar terial blood to the bead; audit is ea sier for the heart to throw it in a hor- 1 ijoatal line than j>#rpendieulrly. L. C.

Harris, Esq., as a candidate for the ofiice of County Solicitor. As some of our readers may uqt be acquainted with Mr. Harris, we take the liberty of introducing him. He is a young man of talent, was partly raised in Thomas County, and represented her both in the 29th and 57th .Georgia Regiments in the late war. Having bean intimately associated with him in tlie 57th regiment, for the last two years of the war, we know •‘what kind of stuff”'he is made of. He was always a student and since the close of the war was admitted to (lie bar a a lawyer. Ht3 ability for the position be seeks is undoubted by those who know him, and our thorough knowledge of his talents .and character, emboldens us to as for him a favorable consideration by the voters of the County. TIIE CONCERT AND SIPPER. We were highly gratified at the success of the ladie in their uoMe undertaking, and express for them their grainude for the libetal patronage ©fa gene'ous public. Tlie Conceit was conducted wn h skill the performances highly entertaining, and the general effect splendid. The supper was all that could be expeced. Tlie board was literally crowned with rich viands of every description, and although the large audience had two nights for iheir con sumption, yet there was plenty left, PRICES FA I, I-INIS. Northern papers bring us the good news, that goods of nearly every description, in New York, have fallen twenty-five per cent. This will make a change in our home mar kets quire interesting to buyers, for we know that our enterprising merchants will not fall behind the times, nor hold their goods by keeping up the old prices. Cali coes are already going at 25 cents, and we may expect still lower prices in a few days. By examining the New York weekly mar ket, we have for some time observed that the prices of many ari icles here, were out of proportion to the New York prices paid for them, but the closer compeiitiou in trade will fce sure, in good time, to bring about the proper reduction. Gold is stead ily falling at the great center of trade, and as long as this continues, we may ex pect prices of goods to keep pace with it until ihc return of specie paymeuts at the Banks, when every article of trade will be restored to par value. Surely, there is a better time coming. Dr. BEALE’S PANORAMA. We awended Dr Beale’s exhibition of his splendid paintings, on Friday night, and confess that we have nev r been better entertained for a short period. To tiie lovers of the fine arts and of nature, in all her bc-amy. grandeur and sublimity, we would earnestly recommend Dr. Beale’s entertainments. He does not exhibit one inferior painting, while in many of them, we are astonished at the magnitude of the Artist's design, and literally enraptured with the excellence and perfection of his skill To those who have not seen these beautiful p,timings. we say. if you have any appreciation for the beautitul and sublime, these entertainments are more than worth your dollar. finance committee. W"e acknowledge the receipt of a copy of the report of this committee, embodying a detailed account of the financial operations of the State during the war. The labors of ibe committee have been arduous, and we thiuk they deserve much ere lit for the able and concise manner in which they produced and laied before the l Legislature, in so short a time, this lengthy report. At a future time we will make more especial reference to its contents Information front Burlington Vermont, has been received that uni forms for 150,000 men, and 20,000 rifles of the very best pattern, have been transported from New York State to th.n city, where they now lie | concealed, awaiting the advance of the Fenians. INSURANCE AGESHESr STATE AND jITAICIPAL LAWS. Mr. F. 11. Remington, Insurance Agent in Thonnasville, has laid on our table a handsomely printed Circular directed to In-urance Agents throughout the country, urging upon them the importance of using every effort to influence the people, the members of Congress and the Government itself, to pass national laws for the tolera tion, uniformity, and protection of Insur ance Agencies in all the States. Each of these circulars also contains a long roll or blank petition, to be signed by the people and presented to Congress, praying the enactment of laws for the above purpose The circular and petition is the reault and report of a Convention of many of tLe most important Insurance Companies of the North, who have gone to Work in good ear nest to revolutionize the whole country on the subject of Insurance, and, end avor, it possible, to place it on the same footing with other branches of commerce. In fur therance of this object the circular is ai tried with a ca illogue of the grievances suffered I by Instn snce Companies in the different States, and replete with eloquence and ar gument from many of the illustrious states men of the country, tending to show that the business of Insurance jt a braneh of commerce, and a9 such, entitled under the Constitution of t .e United States, to be “fostered and protected ” by the national Congress. This much for the Circular. Our own opinion js immaterial, but we will pursue the subject a lb tie way. and leave our readers to make up their minds according to the evidence, real and appa rent. If the business of Insurance is a branch of commerce, then the question is already s (tied by the Constitution, for all the branches of commerce arealike entiiled to protection and laws of uniformiu by Con gress. The circular lays dowu the pre miums received within the last five years by the five companies -eporting (o the New York department at $124,909,732. Losse< paid, $00,786,019, and amounts covered $12.858,917,333, or an anneal average of over two and a half billions of value pro tected by companies whose reports are at tainable; which amount would be enor mously swelled could the figures of the grand segregate be had. The circular then asks, “ if this be not commerce, what is commerce ?” This question t uly brings up tiie issue, and Congress must decide it sooner or later. That Insurance Compa° nies at e beneficial, we apprehend, no one will compel us to debate, and that tire commercial world approves them is equally undisputed. Whether, therefore, the busi ness constitutes a branch of commerce or not, it protects commerce, insures trades men against loss, and thus proves itself a beneficial institution. Now, all beneficial institutions should be pr- tected and cu eouraged by law. and in a complicated government litte oms, where such institu tions are liable to abuse and oppression by reason 01 the local diversity of opinion on the subject, we think a national statute might be established making uniform the laws on the subject of Insurance Agencies, with as much equity as the national Con gress can make uniform the laws in rela tion to bankruptcy. | PTcw CoiiMliiiitioiiul Anicnduirat Agreed 1 jiou. Washington. March 17.—The Senatorial caucus held another met ing to-day and received the report of the committee, appointed at the pre vious meeting, on a constitutional amendment to be proposed in the Sen ate) as well a? in tha House, and pass ed, if possible, at an early day. It seemed to be the prevailing impres sion that no amendment, not b sing representation on votes, could succeed and it was therefore agreed that the Senate should unite on the following: “Representatives shall be appor tioned among the several States which may be included within this Union ac cording to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each ‘State, excluding indians not taxed; but whenever, in any State election, the franchise shall be denied to any portion of'ils male citizens above the age of twenty-one years, except for crime or disloyalty, the basis, of representation in such State shall be reduced in the proportion of the num ber of male citizens over twenty-one years of age.’’ Condition Os Liberia In his message to the Liberia* Con* press, in D comber last, President Warner, after referring to the extinct ion of slavery in this country, alludes to the subject of emigration in the fol lowing manner. “On the subject of emigration we cannot but feel a deep interest Oui population is still exceedingly scanty. Our need ol population is immediate and urgent. Our immense resouices cannot be developed—the fruits of the earth, spontaneously produced, cannot be gathered—the fat of the land cannot be made available, sim ply for the want of minds and hands to engage in the necessary operations. Surely, with the vast latent capabili ties of this country, we have the abil ity to become a power by no means to be despised in the agricultural aud commercial world. ’* He invites the fieedmen of the Uni ted States to emigrate to Libeiia and help those alicady there to build up the vast solitudes which for centuries have remained uninhabited. He lee Is certain that in course of time Libeiia will be sought for as an asylum by the race of blacks genet a ( ly. He considers the peopling of that country by the lreedmen to bs the most likely solution of the vexed question con cerniug the future of the race iu the United States. •• • •-- Imuirnac Kc-onrii- of ilir FniiniK 1 Mr. 8-ward was informed, a ew days ago, by peisons who professed to be accurately informed, that the to ; nians have a millitary force of 50,000 ! ! men enrolled, orga< ized and armed, and commanded by experienced offi l j cers; that they have fifteen millions ot dollars on hand, and a large fleet of vessels now lying in the lake p rts; and that all these ire only a part of their resources. It is possible that a proclamation may be issued, warning people not to be engaged in these i move Tents; butlrom all I can learn, i I think it extreme y doubtful that the Government.wilt take any notice of it. Mr. Seward will probably point to the recent speech of Mr. Glad-tone in the British Parliament, as abundant rea son for non- nteTerence ; and the ex’ peditioui to Canada will be allowed to i proceed.

It seems to me, as if the people of Tlioni asville are tailoring under some mistake iu regi-d to my circumstances, which 1 wish, with the kindest feelings possible to cor rect, as it is very humiliating to be a sub ject of commiseration, when all that is required ate the materials of industry. If my competency as a teacher has been doubted, tne following testimonial perhaps, will prove that I po sess at least some of the book knowl dge necessary, besides the practical experience of fifteen years, which ought to cooler some degree of perfection, were not the brain akin to the diamond iu hardness. M> school has been on the de cline from some uuknowu cause. Possibly, if someone would be kind enough to ex. plain the difficulties, 1 might rectify them; that might prove a better means of subsist ence than placing my uame on the chavi.y list. As I am not, however, well versed in what may constitute a charitable object, 1 will only add, that so far as 1 can speak for myself, 1 ant not at all so much dis tressed, as to feel flattered at the tender of such benevolence as tell to the share of Lazarus, while on t lie earth. Pardon me for as-uiing you that such kin messes are misplaced. They are exceedingly hurt ful, lor poverty, though hideous to the spectator, brings ma ny blessings—it leaves exposed the finer sensibilities, keenly alive, aud trembling like an aspeu with every passing breeze. Come t ten, the rather (o rejoice than (o condole with me. for 1 am unable to con ceive wherein my destitution lies. I am as happy and contented as it is possible for any mortal to be. I leel conscious that I shall not die of siarvalion, when there are so many children around. Some two or three will Certainly pay a compliment to my skill, by coming lor me to teach them their A B C’s. 1 am really very grateful to the few who have palrouized me. Their names will be engraven on the tablets gs memory when all that is eanhly shall have faded away. Mrs, J. C.

I could not do justice to my feelings, without a public recogni ion #f the kind ness which lias been manifested toward tne in Thomasvilie. I came here tinder very discouraging circumstances, and 1 found t ut few words of encouragement. Appear ances were unfavorable. Still I believed that God would open my way, and supply all our wants; and this has been the case. Nowhere have I met with ynoer lino. ess. Never have I been more encouraged.— Truly, God has opened my way and pro vided abundantly. To His name be ever lasiing praise! Ihe people of Thomasvilie have done well, have done nobly. 1 have never seen a coucert and supper pass off more pie s antly nor reflect greater credit upon those engaged in them. The ladies were emi nently successful in both. All parliesac quitted themselves remarkably w„U. The Concert, under the utile management of Prof Parsons and others, was a rich en tertainment ; and the Supper was beamL ful, abundant, and all that cou'd be desired. The amount realized shall he faithfully applied io the furnishing of the Parsonage, which needs it very much. In this connection, I desire io express my gra itude to Capt. Richardson, for the beauti til Pyramid Cake which he so hand somely presented me at the close of the Slipper; and also that of Mrs. Anderson, for a similar present from the ladies A thousand thanks to him aud to the ladies. May the golden suulight ever shine upon l heir palh. In a few days I shall be on my way to New Orleans to attend the General Confe rence of our Church, aud shali be absent for a few weeks. The Church will how ever, be open for Divine worship as usual. JOSEPHUS ANDERSON. From the Tallahassee Floridan. EDUCATION OF VOUNO .TIEN FOR TIIE VIINIMTRV. The last session of the Florida Confer ence adopted a p.lan for the education of young men who feel that they are called to preach. The Committee on Education were authorized to receive aud act upon applications, to place those whom they ! judged suitable in proper schools, anii to furnish such pecuniary assistance as they may deem advisable in each case. The object of this communication is to coll public attention to this subject. Min isters aud Churches are earnestly request ! ed to look around for young men who are pious, endowed with good natural gifts, and feel called to the work of the Minis , try, and to recommend them to the Gom mittee. Those who are too poor to obtain an education without assistance, will be aided as far as may be necessary. The Committee are prepared to receive appli cations. In every case recommendations will be required, and references as to char acter, &c.
