PHILADELPHIA, Feb, 49,, p. M.
Several OF the city bank delegates have returned,
ana they appear to be satisfied that the object ofther
mission to Harrisburg will be concurred in by the
Legislature, and the day of resumption thus post
poned until 1870 Should this be the case the fate OF
Van Buren, is sealed in this State The war cry of
the wings will be HARRISON and Resumption, and
with such banner, they will do wonders.

Our PHILADELPHfA CoRREsPoSDESr.-Some
body who delights in the romantic name Of g Charles
Edwin Heath writes us polite note from Phila-
dephia, requesting to say that he is not GER
respondent. We say so cheerfully-but, Judging
from his epstolary talents, no one would ever have
mistaken Master Heath for the writer Of those CAPT

and editors. We have fresh batch on hand, which
we shall give in a day or GEOGRAPHICALLY Jesper

THE NEw PoLIcE MAeIsrRATEs.-Therei is a
considerable hustle just now among all the political
loafers respecting the vacant chairs at the Lower
Police Office. Ii is considered settled thing, that
all the present incumbents must turn out, nothing
save them, and, therefore, two make virtue Of
necessity and say they do not desire the Office any
longer The third says he is fitted for nothing else,
and therefore ought to be retained. The candidates
in expectancy about forty in number, and
clamorous bloodhounds after a red skinned Indian
in the glades Of Florida. Nearly twenty Of these
would-be expounders Of the law, hail from the
tom house, and having feathered their nests pretty
well there, they desire to doze away one half
their in the chair Of the Police,
and spend the remainder in drives to Harlem and
junkettings to Blackwelrs Island. Of the other
batch, three Of the Board Of Aldermen, viz,
Guion, Willis, and Ferris; and in order to secure
the places to these gentlemen il is proposed to delay
the appointment until after the spring election. The
locofocos Of the ultra but-end school, have ever
opposed them, and say to the Common Council, APP
point these first, else will not support you
the polls. A vigorous stand is therefore making by
the tail end Of the party, and il is confidently pre-
dicted, that at the next joint ballot selection will
be made and the seats conferred on lawyer Shaler,
Milne Parker, and John Trysn Nous

ship building is now in nearly the position as
IN lS9 There are only three vessels the stocks

rate of freghts may induce few hants to have

one or two on their own account otherwise, not

There is singular fact attendant on this years
business. The first steam ship, of any size, to be
built in this country is for the Russian Government
All the private associations have been unable to az
feet any thing; and even the United States Govern
ment will be beaten in their own country by Nicho-
las of Russia. He goes the cash system, like the
Herald, and has contracted with Mr.. William H.
Brown for steam ship of the size the Great Yves
ternthe keel of which is to be laid in about three
weeks. The two steam frigates ordered by Congress
for our navy have been commenced and that is ALL
When half finished the workmen were discharged,
Uncle Sam being out of funds We should not be sur
prised if the Russian steam ship was launched be-
fore either. There is agent here from the Spanish
Government, for the purpose of contracting for a
steam ship. Nothing, however, has yet been arrang
ed. Thus is the talent and genius of our naval arch-
tects rewarded In few years hence, many YES
sells will be built here for foreigners for
merchants. Samples in the shape of splendid packet
ships are sent abroad every year for inspection.
But before this can take place, we must have a
change in public affairs if it be for the worse.
For then every thing will move and go ahead-for a
time. Therefore, let us have change.
The above valuable information could not have
been collected together even by Government. 1t
knows nothing of the business and when an attempt
was made to find out the number of steam vessels
built here, it failed. We have the names of more
than dozen steamers launched prior to 1885, in the
above list, which are not in the Treasury Report
published two years ago.

We remember once having wandered into Love
Feast, at town down east The kindness, the love,

these fcasts attracted attention particu lary-
Every person present, male or beautiful female,
got up when they please, and related all the Gu
rious experimental the ups and downs Of their
Iives-al their inner and bitter feelings without dis
guse. A spirit Of poetry and religion is awakened
on these occasions, and any person with breast Of
sensibility will be carried of their legs in ~ mpa-

soft accents how the Lord had been embracing their
sweet souls with the arms of divine love. On one
occasion, was excited that could hardly resist
