up in the American desert, and which has dis
puted all Christendom with its gross sensual
ism and its presumptuous impiety. Our com
mercial and financial systems need a thorough
reform; the career of extravagant expenditure
which tve have been running for years should

Let us, then, fellow citizens, do what we can
to expel this question of sectional agitation
trout Congress, and leave the administration
free to deal with the great subjects of foreign

be has done, has acted with the most patri

I am sure your faith in his prudence and his
upright intentions, is not inferior so my own.
Let us, then, stand by him, and let us be as-

shall contribute to unite the conservative in

those great public measures with which the
prosperity of tho country and the tranquility

Majority Report of the Select Coni-
M1TTEE OF THIRTEEN TO INVESTIGATE
KANSAS AFFAIRS.
Washington, March 11,1858
Mr. Stephen* endeavored yesterday, unsuccessful
ly, to introduce the report expressive of the views of
ihe minority of tho Kansas Investigating Committee'
The report commences by saying that the subject
mutters to which attention should bo directed was
1st. The law for taking the census of the people,
id. The law for calling the convention,
ad. The registry of the voters, and the apportion
ment under it.
1th. The assembling of the convention and its
•oarn*l,
3tb. The Constitution, so made,
cth. The official vote on the ratification of the sub
ject submitted,
7. The committoe filed, not deeming it material
jhe act of December last, providing for a vote, for
or sgainst the slavery clause on the 4tli of Junnary.
8. The official announcement of that vote, and
9. The written statement of Gen. Calhoun in rela
tion to the registry of votes, etc., (but which sheds
to light on the subject.)
The report says that those facts show great regu
brity »nd strict conformity to law, and that no State
heretofore applying for admission has shown a clean
er record.
No objection to the admission of Kansas arises on
the u.-nal inquiries—first, as to the application—
secondly, *s to the regularity of tho proceedings—
«d thirdly, whether the Constitution is Republican
in form.
The report then answers tho objections, going very
tally into a reply to Gov. Walker's argument, foun
•ted on his assumption that the validity of every State
Convention depends on its having received the sane
lion of a popular vote. The assumption is denied as
not being sustained by principle or authority, “sov
ereignty,” Gov. Walker says, “is inalienable, and
tests exclusively in the people.” This Jis granted
but the report says it does not follow that sovereig n
power cannot be delegated. The formation of a Con
dilution requires nn exercise of sovereign power
but so docs tho commonest of legislation. If tho one
cut he delegated, so can the other. All the Consti.
tntions of the old States were made by conventions,
txeept that of Massachusetts. The Constitution of
the United States was ratified by state conventions'
*nd never by the popular vote. The amendments to
it »re to be concurred in by State legislatures, and not
by'lbt,popular vote, to give them validity. If Gov
ernor Walker’s doctriue is correct, wo should be
without State Constitutions or laws in half of tb
States of theJUnion. The objection that an enabling
net ia necessary is also answered, qnd shown to be
untenable, both in principle and authority.
The question relative to the registry and appor
tionment is very fully treated. The charge that
nintieen counties wer« disfranchised is as complete
ly answered. There are but thirty-four organized
rouaticsin Kansas,twenty-of these were represented
% Sine of tho thirteen unrepresented counties have
''try little population; in seven of them not a vote
*** cast at tho January election against the Consti
ttition. In two others of tho nine less than one liun
ired votes were thrown; and in the four remaining
®*mo!y : Franklin, Anderson, Coffee, and Breckin
ridge, there were but eleven-hundred and thirty
In these four counties the officers were proven
ted from making a registry.
The report also shows, from the registry and ap
portionment, together with the official returns, that
*t the 4th of January election tho five J counties of
Leavenworth, Atchison, Douglas, Doniphan, and
Jefferson, cast five thousand one hundred and eigli
teen votes, which is a majority of the whole vote cast
throughout the Territory against tho Constitution
"ri yet all theso counties were registered and re
Presented in the Convention, having thirty-six of the
eizty delegates ot which tho Convention was com'
P°*«d. If it be trno that the opponents of the Con
•fitution were no largely in tho majority in thos
counties, and so violent in their opposition.wliy d
( hey not elect men to form a Constitution more to
this fikingt They bad within four votes of two
third* of the Convention, why, then, did they fail to
'-•- at tie proper time J Their refusal, therefore, did
not invalidate the just, fair and legal action of the
Convention.
The resolution under which tho committee was ap.
pointed directed them to enquire whether the Le-
compton Constitution is acceptable and satisfactory to
the people ? The reply to this is, that the only cor
rect test is the ballot box, and such an expression of
the popular will as is there given at the proper time
and place, according to law. By this test the Con
stitution was adopted by- an overwhelming majority
of those who joined in tho election. These only can
he considered as the bonaJde citizens of Kansas.—
Others who abstained, are mala Jide residents, who
went to Kansas for mischief and strife. They are
self acknowledged outlaws, and are not to be consid
ered as constituent elements of a community or so
ciety, against which thc-y are in open rebellion. Bnt
on the 4th of January, at the election for State offi
cer* under the Constitution, more than twelve thon-
sand voter* in Kansas did go to the polls, and thus
showed conclusively that at least four fifths of the
voters of that Territory were willing to vote for the
election of State officers under the Constitution.—
This shows that the Constitution was not only ac
ceptable, hut that it has been accepted by at least
four-fifths of the voters of that Territory, though not
entirely satisfactory to all of them.
The committee declined to go into an investigation
of the alleged frauds at the January election for State
officers for want of jurisdiction of tho Hon&e over
the subject.. They say they can no more investigate
frauds relating to tho election of State officers in
Kansas than in any other State. Those matters are
to be inqured into by other appropriate legitimate tri
bunals. If the seat of the member of Congress elect
ed to this Houso bo contested on tho ground of al
leged frauds, the Honse would have jurisdiction over
that question.- bnt not as in frauds to the election of
Governor or member* ot the legislature of Kansas.
The report concludes with a recommendation for
the admission of the State of Kansas, in pursuance
of the views of the President, believing that the wel
fare and prosperity of the people of Kansas, as well
as the general welfare, peace and harmony of the
whole Union, will thereby be promoted.
TIic “False Gas Meters.”
The following communication in rebuttal
of the charge that gas meters are purposely
constructed to register falsely, is copied from
the paper in which the chfirge was first made.
The allegation struck us at the time as a strange
one, though made with such confidence and as
sumption of knowledge as to raise a doubt
whether there might not be something in it.
We are satisfied, however, it was mere humbug
got up for some selfish purpose :—
“Gas Consumers.”
To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle :
Sir: Your paper of the 24 th of February re
fers to an article of the 8th, in which Mr. Ilobt.
Prince says the gas meters are intentionally
made to register falsely, and that they indicate
from ten to fifteen per cent, more gas used
than passes through them.
When this article appeared I would have
replied, but that it seemed to me to be a mere
exhibition of impotent malice—a slander so
absurd that no intelligent man could be deceiv
ed by it, hut as it has been copied and com
mented on in various parts of the country, and
some gas companies have felt annoyed in con
sequence, I hereby pronounce Mr. Prince’s as
sertions to be utterly false and malicious—
The “ Defries,” or, as it should be called, the
Bogardus dry meter,” for it was invented
and patented by Mr. James Bogardus, of this
city, is supplied by me to all the Gas Com
panies of New York and Brooklyn, and to
many other Companies in the United States,
Canada and Cuba. It is the same meter ex
hibited by me at the Crystal Palace, and to me
the Committee awarded the highest premium,
not only for this, but for the Wet or Crosley
Meter.
It will give me pleasure, sir, to see any con
sumer of gas at my Factory in 22d-street,
near 10th avenue, New York, and to prove
any gas meter made by me and in use, and I
invite all such to call. It will give me pleas
ure to see any scientific gentlemen who may
feel an interest in the question, and to have
them examine and test to their own satisfac
tion the accuracy of the instruments used in
proving the gas meters.
The process is very simple and easily ex
plained and understood, if those who have
doubts on the subject will call, I will cheer
fully give them such evidence as will satisfy
them that there is no article of commerce more
accurately measured than the gas which is
habitually dealt out them by the Companies
so unjustly abused.

The Homes of Hie Poor it* New
YORK.
The Tribune says it is estimated that in the
first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth Wards on
ly, of that city, there are about 450 lodging
honses of a very inferior character. The av
erage number of male and female lodgers
every night throughout the year, is said to be
about 25, or a total of 11,250 persons.
Three thousand pay as high as 3 cents per
night for the privileges peculiar to a lodging
house at that price; four thousand pay 6 cents,
and the remainder 12 cents per night. Thus,
about $90 for three cent beds, $240 for six cent
beds, and $500 for 12 cent beds—or a total of
$840, is paid every night for the meanest kind
of accommodation in the name of lodgings.
The amount annually, excepting every seventh
night, which, in most cases, is thrown in by
the magnanimous proprietors, is not less than
$264,000. More than half of this sum, or at
least $150,000 of this amount, besides large
quantities of clothing and victuals, arc pro
cured from people who pay no more than a
a shilling a night for their lodgings or rents.
A large number of the three cent places are
under ground; the accommodations being “a
kind of fire in some corner or other," “several
shavings covered over with fabrics of question
able character, the relics of a chair or stool,
and mayhap, a table of incalculable origin.”
The “ light of the world ” is occasionally ad
mitted by a door, or if anything should steal
or otherwise abstract the bundle of shavings
from the window, then for a time light gets in
by its legitimate channel. The ventilation of
the premises need not be described.
In the sixpenny houses, shavings, straw,
and various other collections of material con
stitute the resting spots for lodgers. In many
of them the aspect is much the same as that
presented by the forecastle of ap English
vessel, excepting the absence of decent white
wash. Hammocks may be observed slung be
tween the sides of the apartment, while re
gions of darkness lay beyond human scan, (be
interior of which the boldness of exploration
only would be able to describe.
The shilling, or twelve cent houses, are gen
erally on a more respectable scale. The sheets
on the beds are not allowed to be clean oftener
than once in six weeks. Not more than four
persons are expected to sleep in one bed at
the same time, and five or six such beds may
be found in some rooms large enough for two
persons only, under ordinary circumstances.
In many of these houses rum is sold, much to
the sacrifice of the peace of the community.
TI»c Methodist Episcopal Church
The returns of all the conferences and mis
sions of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the
United States,forty-seveninnumber, have been
officiallyjrecei vedby the authorities oft hat num
erous and influential religious denomination
and the result furnished the following statis
tics: . ,
Number of traveling or itinerating prcr.cu
ers, five thousand three hundred and sixty
five ; in 1855 there were four thousand eight
hundred and ninety-eight; in 1854fourthoui
and eigbthundred and fourteen ; increasc over
the previous year, four hundred and sixty-
seven. . .
Number of supernumerary or retire! prcacu
ers, seven hundred and eleven ; in 1855, six
hundred and ninety; in 1854 six hundred and
nine; increase over the previous yea?, twenty-
one. Total number of preachers, six thousand
one hundred and thirty-four.
The number of local preachers, six thousand
s'even hundred and eighteen; in 1855 there
were six thousand five hundred and ninety ; in
1854, six thousand one hundred and forty-nine;
increase over the previous year, one hundred
and twenty-six.
Number of members, seven hundred thous-
Africau “Apprentices.”
Wo have looked for some expression of opinion
from the Southern Press on the subject of the ©res
ent movements in Louisiana and Mississippi, but in.
vain : they seem content for the present to chron
icle the facts. Mr. St. Paul's bill has passed the.
Louisiana .Legislature, authorizing aa incorporated
company to bring 2,500 African apprentices. Mr.
Hughes has a similar bill before the Legislature of
Mississippi; and in the meantime, we are assured
that slaves arc now being imported into the latter
State. AU these are significant facts; and wo
think deserving of some passing notice and remark
on the part of the Press. Are Southern Planters
really desirous to import free negroes f Do they
reall y think of transforming their old established
system of slavery, into the cruel and ruthless Brit
ish system'of coolieismf Or is it all a mere pren-
tenco? We wish we had some light on this sub
ject.
It is contended that by tailing the negroes “ap
prentices,” (though they must'all be bought and
paid for on the African coast, and cannot other
wise be obtained) the law may be evaded. The
criminal clause of that law is as follows:—
“ That from aud after the 1st doj of January,
1808, it shall not be lawful to import or bring into
the United States, or the Territory thereof, any ne
gro, mulatto, or person of color, with intent to hold,
sell or dispose of such negro, mulatto, or persori
of color, as a slave, or to be held to service or la
bor.” (Act March 2d, 1807.”)
It is a stupid and unconstitutional law. Never
theless, white it stands as law, to evade it by a sub
terfuge, will humiliate the South, and place her in
the wrong. On the other hand, to introduce bar
barous Africans here, on any footing than as abso
lute slaves and property, will revolutionize - the
whole social structure.
The law itself must be repealed; but it will not
be in the Congress of the present United States.—

We have been often asked which is the best Sew
ing Machine in use, aud to satisfy ourselves, have
spent some time in examining them nil, and now
give our opinion to our readers for their benefit.
We purchased one of the above named Machines,
and have tried it on every kind of work required in
a family, and it gives the best satisfaction; doing its
work very rapidly, neatly and stronger than the usu-
a! hand work. It is muen harder to rip work done
on this Machine than that done ia the ordinary way.
It is neat and tasty,.being very nicely finished, and
to all appearance, simple, beyond tho possibility of
getting out of repair, by ordinary usp.^It is very
strong and durable, nnd wo are well assured one of
them will not wear out irT years of constant use.—It
has already saved tailor’s and dressmaker's bills
enough in our family to pay its cost, and we think it
a very profitable investment, to say nothing of its
convenience and the hours of needle work it saves a
mother. Wo must emphatically pronounce this
the best Sewing Machine in use, nnd the greatest
labor-saving invention of tho day,

We esteem it a pleasure resting upon our absolute

This .irtiele, in short, will restore gray hair to its

Dr. M’Uanc’s Vermifuge
Always resorted to whou every other reme
dy fails.
New York, Sep. 15, 1852.
This is to certify that my child three yearsold, was
troubled with worms some eix months. I had tried
several kinds of medicine, but none of them done
any good; nnd it was not until I tried Dr. M’Li ine’s
celebrated Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming B res.,
that she fonnd any relief. I gave her the contents of
one bottle, which brought from her a very "large
quantity of worms, bnt they were so completely cut
to pieces it was impossible to count them. My daugh
ter is now doing well; indeed sho is completely re
stored to health. I therefore take pleasure in re
commending it to parents. I would say, by all
means keep a supply of this valuable medicine con
stantly in your bouses. I have known many children
to die suddenly from tho effects of worm*. It also
not unfrequently happens (hat children are treated
for cronp, when the choking and coughing is caused
altogether, by the irritation of worms. Therefore, I
say again, keep ifalways in the house ; it costs but
little, and may be the means of saving life; and at
any rate it will save physicians’ bills.

‘My wife has been sorely afflicted with Dyspepsia
for tho last year. During this time, she had used so
many medicines which seemed to aggravate rather
than remove the disease that we almost despaired Of
her recovery. Living in tho country she enjoyed all
the advantages of pure air and exercise, yet each
day she seemed more enfeebled. With some difficul
ty, I persuaded her to take your Holland Bitters,
which, I am happy to state, has completely cured
her.”

Mr. Seth \V. Fowle,—Mr: You are at liberty to use
the iollowing statement for tho benefit of the afflict
ed:
I was attacked with the Liver complaint, which
apparently brought me to the brink of the grave.
During my sickness I was attended by three physi
cians of our place, but received no help. I also tried
the various remedies recommended for such com
plaints, but they afforded me no relief. As a last re
sort, I was persuaded to try Wistar s Balsam oi Wild
Cherry, and by using four bottles I was restored to
better health than I have enjoyed before for ten
ve*ra. This statement may be relied upon as strict
