MARRIAGE OF THE EMPEROR OF BRAzL.-In /,
private letter, which we have received from ou
correspondent at Naples, we have several interest
ing items OF news, which the public may not learu
Tor some time through the journals. The first i
the approaching nuptias Of the young Emperor OF
Brazil with the Princess Royal of Naples, sistc
OF Ferdinand H., King OF Naples, and that two fri
gates were ready to sail for the Brazils with the
Princess and suite, among whom is the Prince de
Se,lla, Minister Of Foreign Affairs. The marriage
will probably come OFF in grand style; aud as the
Emperors royal relative, al the foot OF Mount Etna,
Is the principal birthstone merchant Of Europe he
will now. doubtless, be able TO obtain, upon any
terms and long credit, as much Of that article a.
could reasonably be desired, in his moderate mo-
ments, by his Satanic majesty himself What other
commerce this hymenial union may lead TO, be-
sides that Of the distant parties Immediately joined
together, we don't pretend to say.
We further learn that the old Napolitan banker,
Francis Faconnel, has been in London negotiating
loan for the young Emperor with the Earrings, and
is also about to sail for Rio Janeiro with the result
of his mission that as usual, the British capita
lists have also finger in this family pie.
We believe we have already mentioned that the
King of Naples has been DESTROYS of making a rail-
road, now the royal passion of all Europe, from that
city to Rome. But we now learn from our cores
pendent, that his Holiness the Pope has refused his
assent TO the project; that Ferdinand H. can ex-
tend II only to Casera royal residence but
twenty-four miles dstanta sad disappointment, no
doubt; but his Holiness probably thought that his
faithful dominions required greater supply of sui
phur than his clergy could deal our to them in sp
ritual or Pickwckian sense And this is all Of I'M
portance that we have to communicate from Naples
atpresent The News from Rio Janeiro will, Of
course arrive in due time

every thing to the management Of his clerks, in
sequence of which the New Orleans mail has, on
two occasions, been detained here-opce for five

takes as much interest in the business OF his Of

Law of the New Orleans mail, if such was the case,
il is no fault of his as those mails never carried

The two HOuscs--NO News.


The two Houscs-N0 News.
The Senate is still engaged upon the apportiorr
ment bill. The morning business disposed Of, Mr.
Buchanan called up the billat haf-past twelve. MIR
Morrehead took the floor in support of the district
ing proposition, and is still speaking Mr. Berrien
is tospeak the other side, and several other Sena
tors are prepared to discuss the question: the de-
bate may be continued for several days. Every
body seems anxious TO finish the BILL but the prin-
ciple involved Is too important be- summary sci
tied The distncting proposition will probably pre-
vail. SO far as is ascertained the Wing Senators,
with the exception Of Messrs. Rives and Benen,
will vote in lis favor. The Democrats will go unani-
mousy against it. but the Wings have majority oil
eight in full Senate, and very little doubt of its pas
sage Is now entertained
The House is discussing the propriety Of the con.
duct OF the Secretary of War; call was made
upon him for information in reference to some In
dian negotiations, which the public interest could
not permit hun 10 communicate, and he so replied
IN substance, TO the resolution of the House The
Wings are indignant, and the afiaiHhas been on the
taps all day, so far.
Without expressing any opinion upon this parti-
cular case, II may be stated that the legislative
branch is striving daily to trench upon the executive
and unless the President is resolute and decided In
asserting and indicating his prerogatlve, Congress
will ride over him. Committees raised to look
into subjects over which Congress has no juris1c-
ton, and resolutions frequently adopted calling
for information for which Congress has no right to
ashland all this with no view to Legislative action,
but merely TO insult and embarrass the President.
All this talk about the growing power and influence
OF the executive is rank nonsense The tendency
for years has been 10 encroachment on the part OF
the legislature. The executive, by our republican
theory, is coordinate of the government, but the
wings would make the President mere ministerial
officer, to authenticate such laws the two Houses
may pass.
The day is excessively hot and sultry, with no.
thing stirring but stagnation--a general dearth OF
news OF all sorts. No detailed taiiH bill can BE-
passed at the present session. and the protection

Eric Canal Packet Boats VS.. The Utica nno
schenectady Railroad Company.

Two lines of packet boats are in successful opera
ton between Utica and Schenectady. They have
excellent accommodations and charge 81 30 or 81,
including meals The boats come and go filled with
passengers terrible war s now raging between
these two companies; so far the packet boats have
the best of it, and have enlisted the travelling public
on their side. They have compelled the Utica
Company to do what others could not effect, wiz
to lower their fare--at least as far as the packet
boats are concerned. The respective railroads be-
tween Albany and the tar west, have in vain endca-
yored TO induce the Utica Company to unite in a
general reduction--to receive fare through-to put
on baggage cars-to accommodate travellers by
having apartments appropriated for the different ci
gems and villages, and not to be opened until they
arrive at their respective places OF destination,
which would be great relief to the traveller; but
the Utica Company have strenuously resisted all
this, and great complaints are made against them.
II is alleged that many Of the influential directors In
the Utica Company, residing In Albany and Utica,
are deeply interested in line OF boats from SYRIA
cuse to the lakes, and on this account oppose any
arrangement with the other railroad companies.
Our westem brethren contemplate making public
expose of their grievances, and, not remedled, 10
apply to the Legislature Tor relief. II Is amusing
to witness the contest between the runners and
agents of the Utica Company and the boats, the tor
mer endeavoring to underbid the latter. The Utica
Company are now experiencing Some OF the lncon-
ycniences and annoyances which they have con-
tributed to inflct on their neIghbors. T" Justice.
