LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM
PENNSYLVANIA.

| In the Senate of this State, on Tuesday,
report was received from the Committee OF
which Mr.. Farley is chairman, concluding
with resolution that the House Of Repre-
sentatives over which Mr.. Hopkins pTcsides
Loco foco,) was no, organized as required
by law.
The report gave rise TO warm debate,
and on Wednesday the resolution was
adoptcd-20 to l3.
The correspondent of the N. Y. Courier
and Enquirer says:-
81 have heard it said that the members OF
the Van Buren House of Representatives had
determined, if the Senate would not recog-
nizo them, TO dissolve their body call con-
venton of the people under the bill OF rights,
and start new government. Others say
that the House will hold on until the 18th OF
January, and then inauguratc Mr.. Porter as
Governor, and proceed to business without
Senate"
STILL LATER.
| After the decision Of the Senate was
known, the Loco foco members of the House
had a meeting, at which the following reso-
luton was passed.
RESOLVED, That a committee be appointed 10 pre-
pare for the consideration and adoption Of the House,
address To the friends Of the commonwealth, calling
thom 20 take immediate for the restoration
Of the government.
The Telegraph says that the Loco foco
House will call convention Of the people, to
suspend the action Of the laws and place
them in power.

The following individuals have been Or
dered by Judge Blythe to enter into recog-
nizance for their appearance at the next
Court Of Quarter Sessions Of Danphin Coun-
ty, on charges Of active participation in the
recent outrages at Harrisburg George w.
Barton, of Lancaster Aaron F. Cox, OF
Cumberland, Charles F. Menich, of Harris
burg, UNITED States Marshal;) Charles Pray,
John w. Ryan, John Savage, John J. Nc
Cahcn, Joseph Hall, and others Of Philadel-
phia.
Warrants are out for other individuals who
have not been arrested. Most Of these in
dividuals were represented by counsel, aud
had the benefit Of all exculpatory testimony
they could advance. Still they have been
fully bound over for trial.
What comment is this on the assertions
of partizan leaders, that there was no dis
turbance. At the hearing before Judge
Blythe, the Commonwealth was represented
by the Attorney General, who went to the
seat Of Government at the request Of the
Governor.

Mn. ApaMs.-Wc make the following ex
trncts from the speech of Mr.. Adams, in re
ply to Mr.. Wise, on the subject Of receiving
a memorial praying for the establishment OF
the usual commercial relations with IIayt
as an independent nation. Ailcr arguing in
favor Of the right Of petition, which has al.
waps been held sacred by the people Of the
United States-he adds
\ And say, further, to my friend from
/ Virginia, that If he has no other reason
against the reception Of this memorial than
that 1t proposes umalgama,ion, | hope the
House will say that that is no reason at all

and then come here if he can, and object t.

analgamation. There is one kind which il
sanctioned by the law by which the black

which is not sanctioned by the law. Aud il
would be on inquiry worthy OF the plIiloso.
phic spirit Of this House, what portion Of that
amalgnma,ion which is so common in Vr.

law, and what portion is Unlicensed.
The following is the concluding p' ragroph
Of Mr.. Adams spcech:-- .....,

CONGRESS-.

In the SENATE, on Friday, an i'm
portant bill was introduced by Mr.. Crit
tendcn, to prevent the interference OF
certain officers of the federal govern
mcnt in elections. The penalties are
immediate removal and perpetual dis
qualification for office.
The bill making appropriations for
the regular and contingent expenses OF
Congress, was passed, after an ineffec-
tual attempt to amend it by appropria-
ting $3.50, 600 for the payment Of pen
sions due under existing laws, to widows
of revolutionary officers who married
prior to 1899. The amendment was
lost-11 to 81.
In the House, the sitting was pro-
poned until late in the evening. Mr.
Wise spoke for more than six hours on
a motion to refer the Executive com
munications respecting the New York
defalcations, to the Committee of the
Whole. lie reviewed, (says the cor
respondent Of the N. York Commercial
Advcrtiser) with great ability large
number of cases of defalcation, com
menting on the correspondence between
the delaulters and the departments,
showing how they supported the allie
cations made by him and his colleagues
on the investigating committees, at for
mer sessions, and arguing that they
would justify an impeachment of the
Secretary of the Treasury. After he
had concluded, Mr.. Cushman, of N.
III. took the floor, and tho House ad-
iourned.
During the morning. Mr.. Gushing
moved to amend the journal of Thurs
day, so as to cause to be entered upon
it the protest he had made, that in sub
hitting to the application of the rule to
a petition for the abolition Of slavery
and the slave trade, he yielded mol to
right 6m 10 po'rer, conceiving said re-
solution to be unconstitutional, and in
itself null and void. After n short dis
cussion, the House negativcd the mo-
tion of MIR. Cushing-aycs II, nays
Ia.
The committee on elections made n
report OH the case of Messrs. Jones and
Doty, applicants for the scat of Dele
gate from the territory Of Wiscon-
sin. 1t was made the special order for
Thursday (this day. ED ...f
In the SENATE, on Saturday, after
the presentation of few petitions aud
resolutions, that body adjourned to meet
on Wednesday.
In the House., on Saturday, the time
was principally occupied in the discus
sion of Mr.. Adams motion to refer n
petition for the establishment of inter-
national relations with the republic Of
Hayti to the committee Of Foreign AZ
fairs, with instructions to report there
on. The first part Of the motion pre-
vailed and the petition was REFEREED
After an exciting debate on the last part
of the motion, motion to lay the whole
subject on tho table was finally agreed
to--yoas no, nays 10.

CATION PUBLISHED IN THE EVENING

POST.
"To what do we owe our defeat
/ " l desire in the outset to make a dis
tinct declaration that / do not partici-
pate in The cry Of corruption and fraud
that has been raised"
eve must look further and deeper
for the cause of our defeat. / confess
that my prevailing impression is to at
tribute want of success, whether in in
diyiduals or parties, to rant of conduct,
to some error against which they might
have guarded. And in the present case
| believe it will not be difficult to trace
the loss of many Of our adherents to oar
ocn blunders. The limits of these arti-
cles do not permit full and detailed
statement of the whole case, but it is
easy in few words to maintain this
position.
"Our errors, believe, commenced
with the late Administration, and we
have to trace gradual falling off Of our
maioritics far back IN The days Of Presi-
tent Jackson. This most assurcdly is
said not to throw the blame on one now
deprived of power, but because it is
just to Mr.. Van Buren to acquit him of
mistakes which he has not made. The
present Chief Magistrate is a man of
the most acute sagacity, of the most
calm and unrufllcd temper. The firm
ness of his conduct commands respect
and admiration, and | have no doubt
that had he had the control at an carli-
or day he would have avoided the er-
rors of his predecessor.
"Tho first cause, then, to which !
believe the disasters arc to be ascribcd
is The rioIence Of The late Administration,
and the HOSTILE POSITION assumed and
maintained by many of its organs up to
the present time TOWARDS THE COM
MERcIAL CLASS. The late President
had great and commanding virtues
they were too marked not to be recog-
nised--a strong sense of justice, love of
truth, and hatred Of partiality or wrong
But he had also great faults I; these
faults were chiefly what are called Of
the minor class-,fauits Of temper but
in his case they were Of much greater
Importance.
The course pursued by him in re-
gard TO the United States Bank was one
founded upon sound reason, and which
must ultimately command the respect
and assent of this country. but in the
course Of the controversy he permitted
himself, by the violence of the Opposi-
ton, to be betrayed into n retaliation OF
the most lasting injury TO himself and

A PRETTY SEVERE REBUKE.--A-
mongst the most singular incidents at
tending the Harrisburg affair, is tho
digniGed letter from the gallant Com
modore Elliott to the Secretary Of tho
Navy, from which the following is an
extract.
81 reached Harrisburg at Z o'clock ac-
companied by passed Midshipmnn Charles
Robinson; waited on the Governor, stated to
him MY pREsENCE under his Proclamation,
in readiness to assist him in council or in
ANY WAY he might require by SERVICES; that
should remain in town till quiet was re-
established in the mean time, ] would en-
deavor, by mixing with the partizuDs, to ap-
pease one, and restore confidence to the others"
There's for you. The reply of the
Secretary is just what might have been
expected from any one possessing the
least modicum Of common sense. A
pretty severe rcproof to say the least,
to the man of figure head memory.
Nary Department, Dec. IL, 1888.
Sir, your communication informing tue
Department that, "under tho Proclamation of
the Governor Of Pennsylvania" you had pro-
ceeded from Carlisle to Harrisburg, for the
purpose of " assisting him in counsel or in
any other way he might require your ser
vices" has been received.
The Department does not perceive that
the Proclamation Of Governor Ritner has any
reference whatever TO the officers Of the
Navy of the United States; nor does it think
you have acted with due discretion in thus
mngling in the conflicts Of state authorities,
in relation to disputed points properly apper-
tanning to themselves, ard not requiring or
authorizing the Intervention OF any officer,
naval or military, of the United States.
You will, therefore, on the recei ipt of this
order, ieaue Harrisburg FORTHWITH, and,
together with Midshipman Robinson, return
to Carlisle, reporting your arrival at that
place, and strictly nbstaining from all inter-
ference in c,rH conflicts, until otherwise di-
rectcd by this department.
am, very respectfully,
your obedient servant,
J.K. PAULDlNG.
Com. JESSE ID. ELLIOTT,
U. S. N. Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
The brare Commodore would have
been glad to have had an order many
years ago, requiring him not only to
abstain from interference in ciril con-
aicis, but NAVAL conflicts likewisc-pro-
viding he could have managed, any how,
to acquire name for valorous deeds
without participating in them.

POLITICS AND PENITENCE.

We do not know (says the National
Intelligencer) that we have ever met
with more ingenious and honest con-
fession Of faults and errors than that
which is contained in q communication
to the New York Evening Post Gan Ad-
ministration journaD under the sigma
turc Of "VETo," with the promising
caption "Thc causes of our recent de-
feat" These causes it needed no great
sagacity to find out ; but it required
more independence than is usually al
lowed TO politicians of certain school
to declare them as frankly as VETo has
done. We extract from his essay, and
hereto subjoin, the passages which we
thus refer to as indicating moral cour-
age such as cannot well belong either
to dishonest politician or bad man.
We claim the admissions contained in
the aaticiscd parts Of these extracts as
strong corroborative evidence of what
we have ourselves heretofore steadily
maintained, and for which VIC have I'M
dergonc the most reckless abuse and
contemplate calumnies from the Go
vernment press, and occasionally in part
from the very press which admits, with
very gentle protest indeed, these con-
fcssions of member of "the Demo-
cratic party" into its columns.
