The Committee on Finance and the Currency
n the House Of Representatives, are abou,
ready t" send in their report, and the probability
IS that it will be laid before the House some day
Of the present week. 1t is probable from the
composition OF the committee, that two if not
three reports will be presented. The commit.
tee is composed of the following gentlemen:
Messrs. Gushing. of Mass.

ABBY Folsom AND THE RIGHT OF PETITION
Another champion in defence OF this right has
appeared, as will be seen by the following pc.
ton, which was presented by the Speaker of the
House OF Representatives Of Mass. on Saturday,
with a request from the petitioner that it be re-
ferred to the Committee on the Judiciary:
TO The Honorable Senate and House Of Represen.
tcss Of Mss.
Whereas, That law which requires obedience
on the part of the wife, in the marriage conye.
nanf, II indeed there ever was such an enact.
'hent IN any part OF the world, is a violation of
the natural and inalienable right 6f every human
being: Therefore, if there is such a statute of
this Commonwealth, ] pray your bodies to repeal
IT, as beng contrary to the principles of Chris
tianity and Republicanism.
ABIGAIL II. Folsom.
1t was received with a shout of laupbter.
which absolutely shook the House, and caused

The resolve on the petition of the trustees of

AT the early stage of the debate upon this
question, Mrs Abigail Folsom, who is somewhat
celebrated IN this community, entered the Gal.

seat at one Of the private desks allotted TO mem.
6ers and repor ,ers.--After Mr.. Huntington had
finished his remarks, Mrs. F. arose in her seal.
and, to the great establishment of the whole
House, raised her voice 10 the highest pitch as
follows ~ "
"Mr, Speaker Mr.. Speaker, I say! MAY a
friend OF humanity be allowed to speak"---
Her question was promptly answered by cries
Of Observation-Disclosures in the gallery
and without saying another word she sat down.

The troubles in Rhode Island are not
ended yet, and from present appearances
we fear they viii not end until Gov. King
shall succeed in taking Dorr. Dorr had
returned to Rhode Island and his force j,
said to be about ten or eleven hundred
men, mostly such men as he could collcc
in the streets of New York, 400 of whom
are without muskcts, but they are well
provided with field pieces and had plenty
Of ammunition. The Legislature had passed
an act declaring the State and City OF
Providence under martial law. William
Gibbs Mcneil had been appointed Major
General. The Legislature also passed a
law calling convention of the State for
the purpose of forming n New Constitution

vor of National Debt false. Ii is true,
the Wings have been obliged to incur a
debt of about sl7,O0O,OOO, part Ct this,
10000, is to pay the debt left by the
Loco Foco administration, and the balance
is TO enable the Government 10 move alonr.
And instead of the Wings being blamed
for this, we charge the blame on Mr.. Van
Buren's administration. This may seem
strange, yet we will try and make it plain.
II is well known, that under the compro.
mise act the tariff was descending, that is,
that the duties we're getting lower every
year until June 80, 1912, when no higher
duties than 20 per cent. were to be collec-
ted from imports-ths Of course would
cause great falling off in the revenue,
this Mr.. Van Buren, knew, but instead OF
calling the attention Of Congress to this
fact, he retired without any reference to
the subject, leaving the Wing administra-
lion to shift for itself and thus giving TO
his friends powerful electionecring yehi-
Gle. Mr.. Woodbury. We believe did state
that from comparison Of receipts for
pas, years that there would be enough to
administer the Government on an econo.
mIcal scale. IL is well known that Dir.
Woodbury. was famed for the obfuscation
Of his intellect, and more than once made
errors in his calculation and he may have
made one in this staiement--hu admitting
that there was no mistake, if the revenue
Of the country did no, yield an amount
sufficient TO enable Mr. Van Buron'a ecoao.
micdl administration to get on, how could
he expect any other administration 10 get
on with decrease in the revenue.
The Address also charges the Wings
with being in favor of the Bankrupt law
and the Democrats not. We published an
article few days ago giving the votes Of
the Two parties, which clearly show that if
all the Democrats had been opposed 10 the
bill it would have been repealed.
The Wings are charged with being in
favor d changing the Government because
they are in favor Of abrldgng the power Of
the veto. We deny that the Wings as
party wish the Government changed, bat
believing that President by the unlimjt-
ed use of the Veto power can niure the
country by preventing the passage Of good
laws as well os bad they wish the pow.
or restricted. Experience has taught US
this.
The Address refers to the distribution
act of the Extra Session and states that
the Democrats believe ii unconstitutional.
Gen. Jackson was in favor of Distribution
and opposed it from no other reason than
hostility 10 Mr.. Clay.
The Address refers to the law giving
Mrs. Harrison present Of so, 900. The
Democrats oppose this, not SO much on ac-
count of the money as of the precedent in
troduced by it. The precedent had been
established years before, for Congress
made an appropriated to the widow of
Gen. Brown, and if we mistake not, the
Father Of Democracy received from the
Government some 80 or 100000, and
all liberal men must admit that Congress
did nothing but an act Of justice toward
Mrs. Harrison.
We shall notice the Address agsin in
our next.
