Rror,, WashinRteu.

Our advices from the Capital come down to S
o'clock on Saturday afternoon, at which time the
Senate had the Tariff bill on It's third reading and
Mr.. SrLAs WRIGHT was making speech on the
subject, aeos7ing his determination to rote for
the bill. OF course, his speech will be mainly on
the other side, after the manner of MIR. Van Bu-
rens sheep speech at Albany, but this is of
sequence His cote is the thing; and this proves
that the especial friends Of Mr.. Van Buren, in the
Senate dare not haze the Tariff Bill defeated-
SO we may consider its passage virtually secured.
1t will pass Of course by close vote: no Wing
will vote to surrender the Land Distribution unless
under conpulsion, and all now see that the
measure is pretty SAFE We are confident that the
bill passed the Senate on Saturday; we presume
the House will concur in the Senate's amendments
to-day, and that ohm Tyler will approve the Act,
as measure of Revenue necessity, although The
Madisonian so positively asserted that it would
greatly reduce instead Of increasing the Revenue.
We do not believe that Congress will be able to
adjourn to-day, but it pretty certainly will to-mor-
row or next day.

Things at Albany.

The Legislature is doing nothing very rapidly.
The second week of the Sessioa closed early on
Saturday, in order that the Members should take
trip to Saratoga. Tbas far, the fruits of the
Session have been considerable talk, no Null;fca-
ton, and humbug resolution postponing the sale
of the Erie Railroad to next May. 1t is now
doubtful whether the Legislature will adjourn be-
fore the 1st of May.
We are satisfied that there will be 10 Apportien-
ment at this Session. The majority do not desire
any, Rattering themselves that they will have all
things to their liking, and may Nullify or Gerry
mander to their hearts content, without the fear
of Veto. If they had intended or desired to have
bill passed, the House would have promptly
concurred in the Senate's bill, which gives the
Loco-Focos an advantage equal to si1 Members
of Congress. In other words, in q balanced popu-
lar vote, the Loco-Fecos would have 10 or 20 of
the Members; the Wings IA or Is. But that does
not answer the purpose; and the House has adopted
amendments which will reduce the Wing Mem
bers to 10 or H. and greatly exaggerae the already
gross inequalities of Population; three districts
having but 49, 62S. SO ,57s, and $3.50 inhabitants,
while three others have over $4,000! These
inequalities are wantonly exaggerated on either
side for no possible purpose but to secure more
Loco-Foco Members-or rather, to compel Gov.
Seward to veto the bill.
