The House Democrat* held a caucus to-night and determined to slick to Lecompton. Political male- ofFramcc.—A Faris letter says that public opiuion has been shocked by the oppres sive, restrictive and tyrannical measures that have been adoptod. or determined upon, and oven many of thoso who have heretofore been disposed to re gard Louis Napoleon ns a necessary evil, would not hesitate tojoin in a measure against him. if it only promised success. “There is not a doui t,” says tho writer, "that Franco is undermined by secret socie ties, and that they nro perfectly organized. They knew of tho attempt of tho 4th, long before it was made, although tho government was perfectly in the dark.” A Virginia Diamond.—Tho Richmond A\ big says: Mr. G. P. Matthews, of Virginia, has exltibi. ted at tho Cincinnati Times ofiice what ho claims as a diamond of tho first water, and the largest in the world. It has an inch and a half of diameter, and nearly an inch of thickness. Ills surpassingly brilliant, parlicuiarly when view ed by gas light. Mr. Matthews says ho lias been of fered for it -£24,000. It was found by tire father of itspresent possessor in tho gold mines of Bucking ham county, Virgini-vabout seventy years since. It has remained in the rough state ever siuee, until a few weeks ago, when Mr. M., being satisfied by every test, that it was in reality a diamond, took it to New Yor.; and had it dressed. 'J bis precious gem weighs 144 carats. The Ko’.i-i noor. if we remember, weighs but SCO carats. There have been several diamonds found in tlio regions of Virginia. Last year one found in said locality was sold at Richmond for $4,•’’•00. Tiro Capital of Pcnnaylvnnin.—Tho people of Philadelphia are again uiging tho removal of the State capital from Harrisburg to Philadelphia. In tlio course of time this will doubtless bo done. The capital of Maine, toa, will probably bo moved from Augusta to Portland. The massive State House is the great anchor that lias kept it in Augusta so long Duaitrao* Fire lu ZJaltimorc.—A fire occur red in South Frederick street, Baltimore, and the adjacent neighborhood, early Thursday morning, which destroyed property to the amount of thirty- thousand dollars. An Ofllcinl Joker.—It is said that GoVerr.or Weller, of California, has perpetrated two jokes siuee ho wont into office. One was to recommend tho ap. point merit of a niglit watch to guard the State Trcaso. ry white the Lrgislutureis in session ,- the otherwnsthe expression of a hope,in a message announcing to the Assembly the approval of a bill for tho change of n woman’s namo, (bat asthcro are a great many more men than women in the Slate, hereafter the women will.be able to have their names changed without as sistai-.ee. Elevated "Inline Deposit.—A Mariposa [Cal ifornia] paper says: Mr. Isaac Gimani, who lias Jattly returned from a visit to j ulare county, has pre sonted us with nmost singular cmiosiiy. ltisnelns- ter of petrified real salt-water claims, found by him on thu extreme summit of one of the highest peaks of a spur of tho mountains between tho Coast Range and Ttilr.ro Luke, at tho elevation, tho finder thinks, of cot less than two thousand feet above the level at the Lake. Acres of ground in the vicinity where the cluster was picked up. aro covered with tho same re markable deposit, all transformed into rock. Tlio Near York Canals.—There have been ex pended in completing the New York canals tho nine millions of dollars authorized to bo borrowed in 1833, in addition to a mill tax of about $1,330,000. nod there aro outstanding protested drafts of Canal Commis sioners for work done, interest to come duo within tho year on tho debt, etc., amounting in tho aggre gate to one million two hundred thousand dollars, and there is no power to borrow money for tho put- pose ot meeting theso claims. Tho work of enlarge ment is suspended, and tlio further cost is estimated by tho Statu Engineer at about four millions of dol lars. This is the Statement of tho Albany Argus. It is rather tin unpleasant one for tho citizens of the Euipiro State. A Strike of Cotton OprrntirM,—On the 24th ultimo, tho operatives in tho Naumkcag cotton fac tory, Salem, Mass., struck, and have been since ofl from work, on account of a reduction of twelve and a half per cent, in tlio wages of all the hands, except the 1 piecors and spoolers, whoso pay has not been heretofore advanced. Two Degrees of itlnrdcr.—Among tho bills passed by tho legislature of Massachusetts is one m king two divisions in tho crime of murder, Ha- first ol which, where it i< premeditated, or life taken while in tho commission of a felony, is made punish able with death. The second degree is punished by imprisonment for life. Merlons apprehensions are entertained for tho re- covery of Col. Benton, who lias been suffering for smr.o tiino past with cancer in the stomach, but who still prosecutes his labor ol love— (be work with which his fume will bo so much identified iu times to .come though prostrated aud confined to tlio bed. Proas Vcncrncla—Private advices from Venc- auela report that the government troops had been de feated in several actions. Tho English and French STTuisters bad sunt to tlio river Pla to for Naval for- oes. The opponents of tho government were defea ted in a battlu near Montevideo. Tho commanding officers were made prisoners and afterwards shot. Itlorc Emnnt ipaiion.—Late accounts state that tho decree for tho liberation of the 30,000 slaves, in the Dutch colony of Snriuam, had arrived at that island and been publifhed. Month Carolina College.—The government of this institution seems to bo a work of unusual diffi culty. Already tho new President, Judge Longrtreut, finds himself at serious issue with tho students and bos been Compelled to suspend, ns somo of tho pa pers say, ninety-seven—others 112—a majority cf the whole number. Tho Columbia Carolinian, says: •• \Vo understand tlm ostensible cause of difficulty was thercluanl of the Faculty to allow a suspension of College exercises ou Thanksgiving dny under mu- nicipalrccouiincndi.tion.

The following remarkable circumstance is now the subject of considerable excitement in Columbia county Arkansas, and the facts ns set forth are said to he literally true. We have heard of navigating the air by machines driven by electricity and by steam, but this extraordinary story beats anything wo “ever went a fishing.” Read it all ye St. Thomases : Oak Grove, Colombia Co., Auk. ? February 2(>, 1858. $ Editors Memphis Evening Ledger. Gents :—Our section of the country has been thrown into considerable excitement, within the pastfew days, by the most unheard- of affair that was ever known. At first no one would believe it, until the man, Mr. Ben Jones, produced such proof that the most skeptical were fully convinced that it was true. The facts are these. Ou Thursday evening last, some persons were working in a field [burning logs] some eight miles north of this place.—- lheir attention was attracted by a singular looking object fiyiug through the air at a most astonishing rate. They ceased work, and watched it until it came fully into view, when to their astonishment it proved to be a kind of balloon drawn by wild geese. The geese flew languidly, and after a few cu rb s they alight ed in a field near the one in which the laborers were at work. They rushed up, and when they arrived found a man standing up holding ou to the balloon to keep it from rising. The crowd soon gathered about him, and dieted tbe following facts. He bad witnessed the ascension of an aero naut in 8t. Louis some time past, and since that period had been experimenting in various ways upou this subject. He lived in Harrison eouuty, Missouri, aud near his bouse there was a large lagoon setting in from the river. Numbers of wild foul covered the water, when inild spell of weather set in, and the ice melted, leaving the water free. During a late thaw he set a net, nud succeeded in drawing thirty wild geese into a trap. He manufac tured a balloon sufficient to sustain some five hundred pounds, and when he finished if, lie formed the idea of attaching the geese to it. Accordingly he fabricated a set of harness, which, without being heavy, was sufficiently strong, and then look the whole info the mea dow near by. He carried his aci-'s andiron daring the day, and on the following morning commenced inflating his machine- In a few tiouis it was filled with hydrogen gus, aud he began tostoncit; which done, ho secured hi steeds, and getting in, cut the cord which eon- fined the balloon. It at once arose, the Lird.- oeiug very much frightened, because entangled in their harness, aud created a good deal ol confusion. Gradually, however, by slocking the cords which attached them, he got them into Kite, and, ns the machine arose in the air, the fly ing steeds straightened themselves cut in a line and commenced circling. A few times they sailed around tho field and then laid their course for tho West. A smart breeze now uegnn to blow, and the birds altered their course uttering their peculiar cry, and stood towards the South-west. His sensation ho. described us delightful, darting through the air with lightening speed, and without fenr, as lie well knew by easing it of gas he could descend.— The birds now rose half a mile above the earth, and after an Lour or two appeared to have lost all fear. He passed over fields and farra-hr us es, and could see the people running out to gaze after him, wonders! ruck. lie could see numerous streams of water, and, as he had a compajs with him, ho knew the course he was traveling. He passed over Missouri river, aim his course stood towards the Southeast. When about eight hours out, he saw a largo stream oi water, and he knew ho was over the Mississ ippi, as there were two boats iu sight. Again tbe birds turned their course, and night came on. By the course of the wind he thinks that they turned onec iu the night, towards the Northwest, but again steered South. He kept on in flight until 8 o’clock the next morning, when he commenced letting off the gas, nud as the balloon sunk the geese did the same, until they alighted, ns wc have stated. However improbable this story may seem, it can be attested to by many witnesses, and they arc men of integrity. Respectfully, W. C. Jonsso.w The Georgia Telegraph Building The new habitation of the old Telegraph which wc arc trying to “ put to rights,” (but find it slow business,) is a brick building on the corner of Cherry aTld' 3tl streets, nearly opposite our ancient stamping ground. It boasts of three stories and a cellar—a front upon Cherry street of thirty feet, and upon 31 street of eighty. In architectural design it is somewhat on the fancy order, and whatever mc:it or demerit it may possess is wholly at tribatable to Mr. James O. Goodale, the Ar chitect and Superintendent of Construction who planned the exterior to suit himself, and must answer to tho public and an injured con stituency' for any outrage upon good taste he may have committed. Wo feel bound, how ever, to add in his behult.that, thu3 far, wliat little wc have'heardjgr yjougbt,uiion the sub ject has not been in»the way of complaint or dissatisfaction. v f When tlio walls were up it was discovered that something was needed to ** make a fini.-h,” ant 1 the work was tb ernnpon crowned with a gilded iron EaglcMour feet high, with eight feet- spread of wings*- which, however, appears modestly small at his elevation. A very prop er bird he is, and not without merit as a*work of art. Passing from externals, oar own chief care and concern were to secure a light, strong and commodious structure for the pursuit of busi ness. These wc have in a Compositor's Boom occupying an entire floor, finely ventidated a id lighted with twenty-four windows ; a spa cious and strong press room and public ofiice and editors’ rooms—an engine room in which p!c and convenient space for storage and the accomplishment of all the material, intellectu al raid clerkly labor of the establishment. The building is a strong one and will sustain with out injury, tlio enormous weight which is now. and wiii bo piled upon its substantial walls and heavy timbers. The masonry was executed by Mr. Lawrence W. Wall; Carpentry and joiner’s work by Mr. Richard Brinu ; Plaster ing by Mr. G. \V. Forrester; Painting by E- Brewer, and the House is covered with Maftic Roofing, laid under the direction of Mr. A. P- Cherry. The whole involved an expense of Failure of the iiansas BUI the PROSPECT. In another paragraph we have chronicled the loss of the Senate Kansas Bill in the House by a substitution of Mr. Crittenden’s bill, through n majority of eight rotes- Singu.nr coincidence that the bill should have been car ried in the Senate and lost in the House by the same numerical preponderance. On Fii day the House substitute was called up in the Senate, and that body refused concurrence by a majority of nine. It therefore goes back to the House, where we believe no one is san guine enough to anticipate a recession. The best that can be hoped is that a Committee of Conference between tho two Houses may elab orate somo new and fair measure which shall command a majority ; but this is extremely doubtful. A free soil bill cannot pass the Sen ate, and perhaps none other can get through the House. The policy of the Northern party looks undoubtedly, first and foremost, to keep ing the question open and Kansas still a terii tory, to servo the two ends of a hobby for elec' tioneering purposes and as an elemeut of dis cord and distraction to the Democratic party. Against tho Northern Democratic members who voted with the opposition on this great question, wc feel there is no right to inveigh The surprise should bo that so many Or them proved true iu the face of such opposition from the South itself. How can any reasonable man expect a Northernynomber of Congress to go before bis constituency in vindication of a measure denounced ns sectional and unjust to the North, bv such Southern politicians as Gov. Wise. Mr. Crittenden and Mr. Bell. Humphrey .Marshall, Winter Davis, and others 1 If any body’ is surprised at tho Northern democratic defection in the House, let him ask himself . _ , .

Trippe, or any other there is nothing to :n.:c fire, and in short, am- ... ember could dcfend t h c i r votes for bill condemned by leading Northern poll ticians as anti-Southern, sectional and oppres sive to this portion of tbe confederacy. We may safely assume that none of our members will ever knowingly place themselves in such i position ; and it cannot therefore be a mat ter of reasonable surprise that a sufficient num ber of the Northern democrats to defeat the Kansas Bill, failed to occupy the corresponds position befovc their own section and constit- tencics.

Although this labor and expense wore mat ters of sheer necessity to any prosecution of the business with machinery and power, in a safe, economical, expeditions and considerable way, yet to most it would probably require apology ns an investment. Such a requirement, Ve apprehend, grows out of inadequte idea of what might be done with the proper facili ties, enterprise aud means. Macrn is a very central point. It ought to be an important publishing point—it might be tbo locality of a very influential and widely circulating press, which should contribute more powerfully to every substantial interest ot the place, than almost any other agency conceiva ble. Ail this strikes us as practicable and attainable upon a favorable conjuncture cf means and circumstances; jmd, while it is true most especially <jf the newspaper business as of all others, t sat it must stand iudepen- dcntlvor tonnlc over, a community awake to its own intends should not forget so power- ful a means of pr smotiiig them.

A rencontre took place in fort Gaines, Clay county, Sunday, thc28.li ult., in which War ren button, Sr., was killed by Alexander Marshall, formerly iff Fort Gaines, but now of Macon iu this State. The circumstances and cause of the killing areas follows. War ren Sutton Sr., was tried for J’erjary at the present term of the Superior Court of Ciny county and Alex. Marshall was a witness for the prosecution. A verdict was rendered Sun day morning by the jury of “uot guilty.” In the afternoon, about 4 o clock, Sutton walked up in front of Wardlaw’s Hotel, where'Mar shall was standing iu a company of gentlemen and drawing a pistol, shot at him within six or eight feet but without effect. Marshall caught him by the hair, jerked his head down and fired at him twice with a pistol, one ball only gia zing his shoulder. He then threw down his pistol and stabbed Sutton several times, either stab would have proved fatal. Marshall gave bail in the sum of teu thousand dollars.—Tunes Sy Sentinel.

Let events take their course and work out thcir own results and conclusions. The prostration of the great coiy set vativC power of the country’ before i dent, rampant and traitorous free soilij this struggle, is only another aud a strong in dication of the seemingly resistless, drift which i3 bearing the nation onward with steadily ac celerating motion to tho final catastrophe.— From year to year we have caught eagerly’ at this, that and the other event, proposition or dcvelopement, as affording some hope of ar resting the progress of division—some hope of rea:tionary opinion—some chance of concilia tion and a restoration of fraternal feelings be tween the two great sections of the country ; but one after the other, they fail—the hold breaks and the work of division and aliena tion goes on with ceaseless progress. With the prostration of the National Democratic party’, we have the dissolution of the last po litical bond ; for it mifit be assumed that the new coalition between Wise, Crittenden, Beil and Seward and bis abolition followers on this question, it it shall survive the occasion, can hardly be considered an important ligamentof union ! What, then, follows but mere section al parlies, fighting for mutual annoyance and supremacy ? and outside the noble band of do democrats. North and South, who unite upon this questiau, there is little else than such a condition of things now. The alienation is thorough and complete except between thcsc- and tin* few Southern politicians in league with the free soilers, who have axes to grind on Northern stones and arc willing to pay any price for the work. Events must take thcir course, but it is clear wo must soon find a turn in this long road of controversy and sectional contention, or soon come to the place forjamp- ‘“S off - Coueert obi Friday Evening. A despatch received from Augusta this morn ing, authorizes us to announce for next Friday Evening, a Concert by the distinguished Vo calists Mrs. Annie T. Scholl and Carl Vicweg. See advertisement. Importation of Slaves into Caro- LINA. The Charleston Standard copies the follow ing from the Georgetown Times. It may be tiie announcement of a fact, but as it appeared about the 1st of April, it is probably intended :.s a quiz upon the free soilers and abolitionists: “A short time since a vessel reached our liar- bor and reported that she had been chased pirates. A long low black schooner had bee; on her track for several years. All sail was set aud the vessel run into port in safety. The long low black schooner was equally -success ful in reaching a port of safety, but it was in a different arm of the sea. The Santee river was the harbor where the suspicious craft dropped her anchor. And here the crew deserted their ship, and the cargo too walked out, for each hale of merchandize had two feet, and strang er still, from caeh bale there emanated a sound like human language, but with a wild aud bar barous accent.” Tun Cross.—Crucifixion is an ancient and degrading mode of punishment. Among the Romans it was confined to malefactors of the lowest rank. As soon as the sentence rf cru cifixion 'was pronounced the person condemned was stripped.naked, with the exception of n narrow girdle round tho Joins. He was then fastened to a post and terribly scourged with a whip of leather, lipped with lead or bone.— Sometimes he expired under this punishment. After the scourging, tho person was compelled to bear bis own cross to the place of execution. The cross was generally about ten feet high. At the intersection of the beams was a projec tion, to which tlio condemned, divested of his clothing, was raised and bound by cords. His arms being then stretched out, bis bands were nailed to' the crossbeam, with strong iron sptlus. Ilis feet were also fastened, but it is not certain whether a single spike transfixed them both or whether they were nailed separ ately. The apparel of the sufferer was then divided among those who fastened him to the cross. Vinegar.or wine, medicated with myrrh, was frequently given, to alleviate the pain..— Over the cross was placed the til ulus, or in scription, indicating the offence for which the punishment was inflicted, lho cross was of various forms! but the most common was a beam fixed upriebt securely in the ground and .mother beam crossing it at right angles, near the top. Sometimes the cross was inverted, and the sufferer nailed to it with his head downwards aud feet upward. Southern Monitor. Robert C. Sauds sued for damages in a case of breach of promise of marriage. He was of fered two hundred pounds to heal his broken heart. “Twohundred!” he exclaimed ; “two hundred for ruined hopes, a blasted life! two hundred for all this / No—never! Makeit three hundred, aud it’s a bargain.” Death of Dr. BI. A. Franklin. Death’s darts fly thiok. An envenomed shaft has pierced a warm and manly heart. The victim now, is one—tho most prominent and useful—the most value ! and loved—the kindest, tenderest husband and parent—the indulgent master—the loving son find attached relative—tho best, truest friend. In the character of Dr. Marcus A. Franklin, were coqjfcrised a rare assemblage ofvirtueo and qualities Noble and chivalrie by nature, high-toned in sen timent and fooling—with taste3 refined and cultiva ted—in all the relations of life over tho courteous and polished gentleman—strong in intellect, and firm of purpose, yet moved by tho kindliest, most humane impulses, he held the hearts of thoso about him by bonds, as imperishable, as was the deathless character of the lovo he inspired. With the kindest heart that over beat in human bosom, his charities were at all times oommensurato with his own lofty and generous nature. In tho profession to which the best years of his life were devoted, he was brought into daily contact with the wants and woe3 of liu inanity, and though his many deeds of mercy per formed, were not emblazoned on earth, they are registered in the archives of Heaven. To say tho loss of such a man is a public calamity, were no un merited eulogy ; but his best epitaph remains insert bed on grateful human hearts, whose wafted incense, mingling with tho wail of grief, is the meotest trib ute to departed worth. While his skill enabled him to battle with tho fell destroyer and drive him from tho firesides of others, tho wily foe, in a more insidious form, lurked in am bush, ready to hurl the deadly missiles into tho very sanctuary of home—to desolate tho hearth-stones, and carry writhing and agony unutterable to every heart. Disease had invaded his system, ere its stealthy np proaches were perceived. A few months of decline, and the work of death was done. With heroic pa ticnce with undaunted firmness, he bore its assaults upon the citadel of life, and at last, when resistance was vain, with perfect composure “Liko one, who draws the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams” ho surrendered to the “King of Terrors." Said ho “I know that death is inevitable, and I meet it with calmness and philosophy.” Thus closed his mortal career—stricken down, in manhood’s prime—pecu liarly fitted for social and domestic enjoyments—the centre to a circle of admiring and appreciating friends —with lifo’s choicest flowers full-blown at his feet. To tho merely natural mind, so afflictive adispen sation seems scarcely loss than arbitrary, even a cruel exercise of tho divine prerogative. But has God “forgottou to bo gracious ?” Ah, no. He over rules all tho events of life with tho view to promote our highest spiritual good, aud when a loved ono is taken honce, ’tis best for those who remain—best for him who is removed. Think of this, poor, rged, suffering mother, or your burden is too great to bear. Aud you, yo crushed, bleeding, anguished spirits, whose loss is irreparable, or your voiceless, cureless grief, finds no alleviation. Shrined deep in your hearts, evermore will ho live, and memory in recall iughis virtues, will weave the only golden threads in thu sombre woof of existence. Adieu, lost friend ! a long adieu. Your last words even now, come sighing on the air,—“Farewell, and remember me always as the best friend you ever had ” I do, I will, and deep in my heart of hearts, a green spot shall bu kept, sacred ever to you and to our friendship. A FRIEND. Dr. Boynton’s Lectures As our paper went to press before the de livery of Boynton’s first Lecture, last night, wc present the following brief report of it from a Louisville paper, which will doubtless be read with interest The introductory’ lecture by Dr. Boynton, last niglit, drew a crowded nndieuco to the largo Hall of the Masonic Temple—indeed large numbers went away unable even to -gain standing room. Those who gained admission enjoyed one of the richest in- tellec. ual entertainments ever given in Louisville, t he Doctor is a master in his profession, and his powe.s to interest, instruct, and entertain, have in no respect been over-estimated. The end of the hall around the stage was covered with large charts, dia grams, aud mauy small paintings, representing geo logical formations, animals o the ancient earth with some of the present specimens—though a placard announced that tho exhibition of large paintings would commence at the next lectnre. Too lecture was of au elementary mid general character and mostly devoted to mechanical astron omy. The law, said the Doctor, which governs ihe atom, governs thu mass. Ail matter is governed by law. Law implies a law-giver ; that law-giver im plies intelligence, and for this intelligence he kuew of no better name than God. Take a grain of salt; left to the law of its own construction it always forms a cube; break it up, grind it to powder, dissolve it ten thousand times, and it will always, left to itself, assume tlio form of a cubic crystal. The laws of matter, which ore invisible and uot cognizant to the suuses, are more real aud substantial aud permanent than the matter which they control. The one is eter nal, the other transitory. Tlio Doctor discussed the tendency of all bodies in which chemical changes take place and which are held together by the attraction of gravitation to mrm themselves into spheres, and he showed how lliis tendency is modified by the rotary motion given to tbj oartu and the planners, transferring them to oblate speroids. The flattening of the poles ot the earth by rotation made the polar diameter 261 miles less than the equatorial diameter; white the flatten ing <>f Jupiter, which rotated in ten_ hours, was, as shown by actual observation, 6,000 miles. The flat- tuning of Saturn is 7,500 miles. Tho effoct of this law, however, was to give stability to tho motions of tho planets; for the axis of every rotating body would remaiu through its shortest diameter, and, consequently, its position to the sun always remaius thu suinu. The existence and operation of these laws was illustrated by a series of practical experi ments which were at once beautiful and simple, and carried conviction to the mind of every one present. Dr. Boynton concluded this branch of his subject by a most eloquent description of the millions of heavenly bodies, each one revolving upon its own axis, each group around a center of its own, there again associated ingroups revolving around con:* uum centres, and tho whole carried forward in the realms of space around ono great compound centre, iu a circuit in which millions of years are required to complete one revolution—the whole furnishing an evidence of tbo wonderful wisdom and power of the Great Creator. The next lecture, being tho first ol tho regular course upou Geology, will be given to-night, when Dr. B. will show that the interior of our earth is in an igneous or melted condition, and also the causes of volcanoes, the clovation of continents, islands, Ac.— Wo would adv ise all who would enjoy a high intel lectual entertainment and gain a rich fund of instruc tion to attend this course of lectures. Another such opportunity may never occur. Wo ure requested to state that those persons who obtained tickets for the first lecture aud could not -aiii admission will be admitted on the same to light ’’ The Southern Georgian. This is tho title of a new paper of ample size and admirable typography, recently *ss- taklishcd in Bainbridge by Messrs Wimberley & Murphy, the first number of which has just come to hand. It promises to be conducted in a style not inferior to the Argus of tbe same place, aud tbe existence of two such prints iu the town of Bainbridge, which wc knew a few years ago as a village of 500 inhabitants, is a surprising evidence of the rapid growth and prosperity of tho place. The Southern Geor gian, docs not take party position, hut will he devoted to the advocacy of Southern Rights and Southern Honor.” The first number dis plays tact, taste, good sense and editorial ability. Defeat of the Kansas Bill. Black Republicanism is triumphant in the House. A coalition of all the pic-bald forces of free soilism upon ^ r ’ Crittenden’s substi tute, carried it by a majority of eight! We append the telegraphic summary of House pro ceedings on the 1st instant: Washisgton, April 1.—In tho Senate to-day the army bill was passed, but with a substitute for two in stead of four regiments, exclusive of that designated for Texas. .... . In the flenate, tho Kansas bill was received ns n- memledand passed by the House. Mr. Green mov ed to disagreo to the amendments, and this motion will be considered to-inorrow. In the House, Mr. Stephens had scarcely moved that the Kansas bill i-houle be taken up, when Mr. Biddings objected to its second rending. In such iito tie i ui>-requires that t lequestion shall be taken. On tlio rejection to this disagreement, the rotestuod, ve IS 03. to nnvs 137. Mr. Quitman offered as 11 sub- stilute. t.'io Senate bill, witn the exception of 1 ugh and Green’s proviso, declaring thit the peoplo of Kansas have tne right to alter and amend lheir Lon. atituiioa This amendment was defeated by a vote , f as ,,i favor of, to 163 against it. Hie vote was then on Crittenden’* amendment as a substitute, which was further amended by the nnti-Lecompton portion of 1) -inocrats in the late conference. The amondm at was carried by eight majority. Th - bill as a needed by two House provides for tho admission of Kansas, but refers the Constitution h ick to tlin peoplo for tlieir votes. If; the Constituti- tion is r.j :eted, u convention is to be called to form .. iiu-.v Constitution.

Washington correspondence of tho Telegraph Washington City, Friday, March 22.1859. In the 8cnmo the debate on the Minnesota Bill ia principally in reference to tho number of Repre sentatives to which the new Stato will be entitled— whether she shall bo restricted to ono Representa live, in accordance with the ennabling art. and an imperfect official census, or be allowed more, in ac cordance with elections of tho people and nnofficial reports of population. The precedent lately es tablished in tho Kansas case prognosticates a deci sion of the question, in the Senate, according to He strict letter cf the lam and Hie official record. Iu the House, it has been proposed that the Kansas Bill be taken np on Thursday next, with the view of bringing it to a final vote. But it is thought by many here, that there are too many “big speech es" yet pending in that body, on so popular and pro lific a theme, to admit of so early a disposition of the question. Tbe UInnimotb Stcnna Fan for ventilating the new Hall of Representatives is now completed and works well. The Great Cbnndclicrin theoldSenatoCham ber is to be lighted to-morrow evening, before a pub. lie audience, by “Gardner’s Patent Galvanic Elec trio Lighting Apparatus.” Tbe SnndKapitl* Lnnd Office, in Minnesota is to be removed to St. Cloud, in that Territory, or tho 19th of April next. ■ A Pension Certificate has just been issued to the widow of the late Commander Herndon. The Star advocates tho passage of a special act of Con gress for the relief of this lady and her orphan chil dren, more commensurate with the circumstances of tho case. The Editor of (be '“States” in response to an enquiry of the Montgomery (Ala.) Confederation expresses the opinion, formed at the time of his con nection with tho “Union,” under tho Polk Adminis tration, that the reason of Santa Anna's return to Mexico, with the consent of our Government, during our late war with that countrywas that ho might frustrate a scheme that was on foot between the monarchists of Mexico and the Cabinets of France and Spain, to establish a monarchial government in the country, and place scions of tho royal lines of^ tho latter two countries on tho new American throne. Gen DuIT Green, in a reminiscence of a column and a quarter in the “Nfo/cs,” asserts that Senator Niuian Edwards, of Illinois, was tho originator of the Missouri Compromise, instead of Mr. Clay. Senator Green, of Missouri, from his prominent participation in the late Kansas discussion, in the Senate, is now locked upon as the leader of the Ad ministration party iu that body.

Saturday, March 27, 1838. J The Senate was not in session yesterday. Nei ther is it to-day. Jn the Honsr, the Committee on Public Lands has been instructed, by resolution, to enquire into the disposition made by the State of Iowa, of certain ands granted her for Rail Road purposes. It has al- sVbeen partially agreed to devote until one o’clock onY'hursday next to general debate on the Kansas question, while nominally discussing tbo Deficiency Bill, knd then to take the vote upon the Senate’s Kansas Bill, without further debate. And, further, to close the general deb ite on the Deficiency Bill on the next day—Friday next. A large number of pri vate Bills were yesterday reported and placed on the Calendar. The Kansas question was discussed by Messrs Smith, of Virginia, Palmer, of N. York, and Morris, of Pennsylvania. A list offorty members, desiring yet to be heard on tho Kansas question. lias been handed to the Chairman of tho Committee of the whole Jlouso—thirty-one desiring to speak against the Lecompton Constitution, aud nine in favor of it. A Cnucns on the Lecompton question, is to he held this evening by tlio Democratic members of the Honse. Personal.—The Hon. Linn Boyd,of Kentucky, and the Hon. John W. Davis, of Indiana, both Ex- Speakers of the House of Representatives are now in the city. The Hon. Mr. Caruthtrs. of Missouri, is expected to arrive hero from Cuba, in improved health, during the fore part of next week. The increase of Funds subject to dafl, in the U. S. Treasury, during the week ending on Monday last, was 83,218,430 14. The X<ong Pilasters, now arriving for tho U. S. Treasury Building, weigh from forty to forty-five tons. It requires ten heavy yoko of Cattle and four stout horses to draw them. It is stated that the cost of each pilaster, when in place on the building, is 2,500—enough to buy a good farm. The new Conservatory attached to the Exec utive Mansion, has just been completed, and is said to be the largest one in tho United States. It contains many rare plants and flowers. Steam IVirrigation on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal was thoroughly tested by tho use of one boat last season, and Is to bo extended by tho addi tion of at least one more boat during the current season. Smithsonian l.rcmrr.—Prof. Scheie do Vere, of the University of Virginia, lectured here last eve ning, at the Smithsonian Institute, on the subject of 'John Late, and his celebrated Mississippi speculation.’’ He narrated the published history of tho case, and intimated that its disastrous effects upon the national prosperity of Franco, should havo been a historic warning to savo our own country from a similar fate. But he said John Law banks had been allowed to spring up ad libitum throughout tho country, and, thank the Lord, had broken, nad taught us a lesson by our own experience, which we hail failed to learn by the experience of others. A Row of eight frame dwelling houses, with most of their contents, was destroyed by fire hero yesterday morning. • Washington, Monday, ) March 29th, 1838. J In the House of Representatives, the case of O. B. Matteson has been laid on the table by a voto of 76 to 69, it being considered by the majority in accordance with tho resolution of the Special Copimittee, that it is inexpedient to take further ac on the subject—on the grouud that tho House no jurisdiction, and that tho wholo matter lias been passed upon by the member’s constituents. The Illinois Delegation unanimously deny the charge made by Mr. Smith, of Va., that they had held a con ference and agreed to oppose the Lecompton Con stitution for the sake of securing tho re-eicclion of Mr. Dougins to tho Senate. It is understood that the result of tho Democratic Caucus, on Saturday evening, was the appointment of a Commit! eo of twenty members, ten Lecompton and ten anti-Lecompton Democrats, to consult to gether and report at an adjourned meeting to beheld to morrow evening, as to the best mode of adm : t ting Kansas under the Lecompton Constitution. The Republicans have concluded not to hold a caucus, so as not to draw a party lino between themselves and other anri-Lecomptouites who intend to vote with them on this question. The Intelligencer, of this city, in n leader of a col umn and a quarter, this morning, advocates the ad mission of Kansas under tho Lecompton Constitu tion, subject to ratification by the people—that is un der the Crittenden substitute, which, by tho way, is also to be introduced in the House, when the Senate Bill comes up finally before that body. The U. S. Military Uniform i* soon to undergo a general change in accordance with the recommenda tion of a Board of Examiners appointed for that pur pose.

Nevertheless, considerah'o num bers of hands aro weekly being discharged in some of tho departments of the Yard, for the lack of some thing to do. The present force of Mechanics in the Yard, is about six hundred. Firemen's Riots and Rows in goneral now prevail hore to an alarming extent. During a collision bo. tween the ” Northern Liberties” aud “ Good Will” (formerly •’ States Hose”) Fire Companies, the oth er evening, it is said that over a hundred and fifty gun and pistol shots were fired. Several persons were dangerously wounded, but none killed outright, as lias been developed. Ono young man, who was not a participant, but happened unfortunately to get between the two parties, while innocently passing, received seven balls in liis person, and now lies in a ery critical condition. • The Daily Union Prayer Meetings, here,are numerously attended—drawing considerable throngs of both sides, especially ladies.
