Correspondence Of The Tribune

The vote Of esrerday by which Mr. Adams re-
soln,;o, 20 resc;nd the Twenty-First or Gag Rule
was laid on the table, is worthy the close attention
and exa,,;nation of every Wing and of every WING
naner in the country That resolution was finally
d;soosed of BY laying it on the table-wheIe il
mus, lay all the Session-by the combined vote OF
Northern Loco-Focos and Southern men, while the
whole Wing vote Of the North, with several Wig
votes from the South, were recorded against the
motion. Messrs. Bots of Va, Kennedy of Md,
S.1nly of n. c., and Stuar, of Va, Wings, ell
voted in favor OF the Right Of Petition: and yet,
in New-York, in Massachusetts and in Ohio, men
calling themselves Anti-Slavery men and ardent
friends Of Free Discussion and of the Right OF
Petition are found acting as third political par
ty with no other end, whatever be their object,
thea 70 defeat the only party which can attempt TO
maintain in Congress the Right Of Petition 10
defend the Rights Of The Free States, and throw
power, in and oat Of Congress, into the hands OF
those who always oppose all these rights. 1t is
quite time that men of intelligence, who are not
actuated by sinister motives, who have lately aided
in this third psrty movement should pause and
examine the certain tendency of this action
They need only examine the vote of yesterday,
above referred to- to learn what they their prin
ciples have to hope for from the Loco-Foco whom
they have of late so efficiently aided.
The Bankrupt Law seems in a fair way to re-
ceive its quietus Mr.. Everett's motion to-day to
sus pend the rules, TO enable him TO introduce his
bill TO repeal that act carried, by vote of
1877 20 GO. The bill introduced, read, and
made the special order for next Tuesday. 1t re-
oeals the law Internationally, except as to apPli-
cations made prior to the 9Th of December. 1
presume that it will pass the House without delay,
though probably some time may elaPse betore 1t
will be finally acted by the Senate, as the reso-
luton calling on the Secretary of State for infor-
nation relative TO the number of those who have
applied for It's benefit &C., offered BY Mr. Tall
madge, was to-day adopted, and will require some
weeks TO obtain a response.
Every day gives some evidence that the
LocoFocos intend hereafter that the lines shall be
distinctly drawn between themselves and Captain
Tyler. During the debate which sprung up yes
terday upon the reference Of that portion Of the
Presidents Message relating the Exchequer,
and Charles j. lneerso declared themselves OPP
posed to that measure under all circumstances
and the latter gentleman had something to cay
about the usurpa,on by the Executive of the power
OF the House TO originate such measures. The
Globe, too, still continues its warfare upon the
Captain and his Cabinet.
The Legislature of Ohio, or at least one branch
of it, passed resolution to elect Senator on Fri
day last, and We shall probably know the result to-
morrow. MANHATTAN.
% We hear complaints made by Members Of
our City Government that certain descriptions Of
public work which favorites were, as heretofore
appointed to perform, are likely to cost quite as
much as, if not more than, the prices paid by the
late corrupt dynasty. Our City Fathers talk of
being astonished at this, but with what reas son 7
If you make a job Of mere labor do you not ex-
pect to have it jobbed What favor do you con-
fer on fsvorte if you give him work to do ST
the lowest price that any body would do it for Z
Gentlemen, we have told you from the first that
the straig ht-forward, honest way was the best
way-Give your work to the man men who will
faithfully do it cheapest, having offered it for bids
in such parcels that no man will be likely to mo.
nopolize it Actual Office and mere mechanical
labor are different things.
10" The FREEMAN's JOURNAL and Catholic
Register" of this City, now in its third volume,
has been greatly enlarged and improved, and is
now large as well as spirited Weekly ouarto,
issued every Saturday morning; its contents d'vld-
ed between Religious and Literary matter, Irish
intelligence, &C. AS the only Catholic journal
with which we are acquainted which never at
,empts to make Political capital out of the Relig'
ious faith Of its readers-which appears to treat
all parties fairly and equally, and censure none but
for Injustice to the Church which 1t believes the
true one, VIC heartily commend the treeman's
Journal to all Catholics and lnqurers into the
views of tina. Church who prefer to keep thelI
Theology and Politics separate. The proneness
| TO mix them on the slightest occasions is one o.
| the worst tendencies Of our time, and especially
coaduces to excite and strengthen bitterness against
The Catholics. 1t has thrown them into position
where ons party often makes capital by abusing
them and the other is so of their blind fidelity
that !, can also defer to the ruling prejudice ano
treat while il uses them, The tone Of the Free
mans Journal predicts that they MAY not Away:
be thus kept mere hewers of wood and drawers Of
water, once in great while asserting their rights
and then submitting to be sold out for the profit o.
two or three managing demagogues change in
this respect appears to US certain to command the
respect Of all parties, while it will tend to elevate
sensibly and progressively a now depressed class
of nnr nonnlnrinn in the scale of Social and Intel
