DIR. SILAS REED,

Whose restoration to the office of Surveyor Gene
raj of Illinois and Missouri we noticed last week. ar
rived here yesterday on his way to 81. LOUIS, 10 re-
enter upon the duties of his Office
We were not a little astonshed to see IN the 81.
Louis New Era, of the Goth umo, an article urging
upon the Senate the rejection of his appointment, ON
the ground that his reinstatement would be as unuS
to Mr. Brown the appointment of the latter was 70
DR.. Reed. u
This is truly strange doctrine. The friends q
Mr.. Brown, by gross misrepresentation to the SO
nate under injunctiOns Of sccresy induced that body
to reject the nomination of the Doctor and We cannd
see for the life of u.s. what injustice it can be for thf
Senate, noD, to do what they would have done before
had they not been deceived by the representations of
Mr.. Brown and his friends
We commend the course which the President, In
this instance, has pursued. He has shown, in the
strongest light, that when the maevoence OF those
who oppose his appointments is dlscovered the az
thors, much they may pretend to be his friends,
have nothing to hope from him.
The Senate, also, have assumed the true POSITION
and done honor to themselves in reinsatng ID Reed
1t will prove sauary lesson to all who impose upon
their confidence, under the injunction of secrssy, as
was done in that case.
Never the character of man more bitterly or
more unjustly assailed than that of the Doctor
and we regard his appointment as signal triumph
over the unFrincped unto that procured his reJec-
ton.
We see that the honest portion of the press Is do
ing him justice and retractng their comments to ms
prejudice.

O'Clock Yesterday morning, at which time the
corpse was removed, in charge of the Commit
tee of Arrangements, attended by the Sergeant
alarms of the House of Representatives, to
the Hall of the House At twelve o'clock, MI.
the funeral service was performed by the Rev.
Septmus fusion, the Chaplain to the Senate,
and he delivered an eloquent, appropriate, and
affecting sermon, from Hebrews, XII, 24-5-" BY
faith Moses, when he was come to years, refus-
cd to be called the son Of Pharaoh's daughter
choosing rather to suffer affection with the peo-
ME of God, than 10 enjoy the pleasures of sin
for season"
The procession was then formed, and pro-
ceeded to the Congressional Burial Ground.
In addition to the relatives and friends OF the
deceased the members and officers of the two
Houses, the President and Heads OF the De-

RHODE IsLAND-As yesterday was the day for the
free suffrage" party to hold the elections in Rhode
Island shall look with interest to the result. II
they persist in organizing under the constitution,
there will be two governments in ex stence in that
State, and collision must be the necessary conse-
quence THIS would be dreadful state of affairs, as
it would ultimately lead TO bloodshed 1t is evident
from the Presidents letter to Governor King that he
will consider it his duty to interfere, upon proper APP
picaton for the protection Of the legal authorities of
the State, and for the suppression of any rebellion
which may take place. The President has taken a
clear and view of his duty and distinctly
his intention to discharge ii if required by crcum-
stances In this he will be sustained by every friend
of law and order in the United States We think it
just that the right of suffrage should be extended in
Rhode Island and to this there appears to be OBJ
lection by either paItythe only difference is that the
party desires TO have the change effected in ac-
cordance with law, whilst the oil seeks it through
the medium of revolution. Were the principles adj
vanced by the latter to be generally recognized, no
State would be flee from CONFUSION, dissatisfied
persons would take the redress of real supposed
grievances into their own hands.
We sincerely hope that all the difficulties may be
amicaby adjusted; but if not, and intestine war ell
sue, we trust that President Tyler will promptly in
erpose the power of the General Government in sup
port of the legal authorizes of the State. 1t will be
the first instance in which revolutionary movement
has been carried to extremity in State, and hence
the necessity of having it speedily and efec,uay sup
pressed. The suffrage patty can obtain what they
desire in legal way, and should have the good
and moderation not TO attempt to acquire by force
The elections which took place yesterday no doubt
resulted in the choice of the suffrage candidates
we presume that no opposition offered. On We'd
nesday next the elections under the legal authorities
will be held Ii the officers chosen yesterday forbea
the attempt to exercise authority, harmony may still
be preserved-bu the moment they begin TO act under
their appointments will be signal for hostIities, and
then we shall have the disgraceiul and terrible exam
pie of citizens butchering each other. God in his in
finite mercy avert such a calamity.

From the Providence Journal.

The letter of the President appears to have exerted
an effect upon the moderate and thinking portion OF
the suffrage party who are now convinced that the
National executive will not hesitate 10 put lorth ms
authority when called upon by the Governor, and
that their leaders have in this respect as in Others
grossly deceived them. But there are not wanting
ooHce-seeking demagogues, who are so thoroughly
committed, that nothing can arrest them; and, I'M
fortunately there are hot-headed followers who are

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT.

We have the pleasure of laying before readers
this morning the reply of President Tyler to the let
ter of Governor King 1t is full, explicit, and dec
ded, and declares in the most unqualified terms the
determination Of the National Executive to maintain
the legal and constituted authorities of the State He
says q IT WILL BE MY DUTY TO RESPECT
THE REQUISITIONS OF THAT GOVERN
MENT WHICH HAS BEEN RECOGNISED AS
THE EXISTING GOVERNMENT OF THE
STATE IN ALL TIME PAST, until shall be adj
vised IN REGULAR MANNER that it has been altered
and abolished and another substituted in its place
by LEGAL and PEACEABLE PROCEEDING S
ADOPTED and framed by the AUTHORITIES and
people of the State.' 'ef+ ''4.-'
For the prompt and manly exercise of his consttu
tional authority, President Tyler is entitled to the
thanks of every true citizen of Rhode Island. II is
what we expected from his frmness and from his cha
racter. The case one different, in some respects,
from any which had been presented, but the
absence Of precedent did not deter him from the per-
formanoe of his duty, marked out in the Constu-
tim As state paper it is admirably written plain
and right to the point, and its sentiments breathe the
true spirit of the Constitution.

STILL THEY COME.

Yesterday we published the declaration of the
Delaware County (Pa.) Republican in favor of
the Administration. The following we copy
from the Penn Yam IN. W Democrat. Such
indications are cheering to the hearts of patriots
who are aboring necessarily Notwithstanding
they are daily belabored by their hollow-hearted
enemles) to restore the wonted prosperity of the
country.
Presidents Message-Ihe Doings Of Congress-
The question may now be asked, what will Congress
do in the present conuncture of our foreign and do
nestle affairs The Congress has now been assem-
bled for four MONTHS and notwithstanding bankrupt
treasury deranged currency, and business para
in ruins and navy rendered IN
efficient from the entire neglect of it, and nothing
literally nothing, has yet been done
The President, in this conjuncure, has boldly and
noby stepped forward regardless of party feeng and
sent a Message to both Houses, recommending the
repeal of the Distribution Law, and revision OF the
tariff both of which are demanded ana VIII pe sus-
tanned by the country. fH
1t is not necessary here to speak of the passage OF
the Distribution act. That it was an unwse mea-
sure, must be evident to all candid men. Mr.. Tyler,
in his message, which we published a. ,ehgln las.
week frankly proposes its immediate repeal and that
the money arising therefrom be applied to the urgent
wants of the government This course would restore
about three millions dollars per year TO the national
treasury The adoption of tariff increasing the du-
ties above 30 per cent? which was fixed as the maxi
mum rate of duty by the Compromise act is now ac-
knowledged by all necessary to produce sufficient
revenue for the wants of the treasury.
The immediate adoption of both these measures
recommended by the President, would undoubtedly
place the finances of the country again upon firm
basis and if managed with proper ability and skill,
such as we have right to expectin every admInlstra-
ton, and such we had in Mr.: Van BuTen's, the
treasury and the country both will be restored to their
former prosperous condition

Indian CYincl- New T'reaty.-On Saturday last
Council was held at Il Council House on the Buffalo
Creek Reservation, which promises to be followed by
important results. The Council was called at the IN
stance of the Friends and was attended by Baltimore
and Philadelphia delegations from that body, and by
nearly, if not quite, all the Chiefs on the Ionawanda
Buffalo Creek and CattaIaugus Reservations. The
Friends, with Characteristic philanthropy, are aiming
to effect compromise between the supporters and OPP
ponents of the late treaty, which has been the sub
iect of much heated discussion, and for that pur
yose they submlttedt to the Indians the following pro-
position, which, it is said, agreeable TO the Ogden
Company To anpu the late treaty and make new
one 10y which the Indians on the Tonawanda and
Buffalo Creek Reservations shall give up those lands
and all be concentrated on the CattaIaugus Reser'a
ton.
This last named reservation, embracing some fifty
odd thousand acres is sufficiently large for the accom-
mediation of all the red men and the Friends believe
if they can there be collected and be brought under
proper educational ID moral supervision, their condi
lion can be vastly improved The propositions have
very generally been favorabIy entertained by the In
dams and strong hopes arc cherished that all the
happy difficulties which have existed for the past few
wears will be amicably and finally settled OF
whatever arrangement may he made must receive the
government sanction to give ii validity; but no oppo
ston, we presume will be experienced in that quar-
ter-Bufdlo Com. Ado

OBITUARY.

Departed this life in Philadelphia, on the 14th in
slant after lingering illness, Miss LOUISA FELICE
PULIZZI, a native of this city
Melancholy as is the tribute, it is still of afec
ton to shed a tear over the memory of departed
worth; for though times passage may sooth the
wounds that the departure of loved one creates,
the present calls for some balm to heal the harrow
ing feelings of afflicted relatives and friends. In at
ter time this brief notice may be looked at with sad,
vet pleasant eye and retrospecton's flowers bud
ding forth in beauty and brightness will bloom in the
imagination around the Eden of Heaven, where hope
whispers the departed spirit resides The dove, with
pure plumage and azure eye that dwells amid those
fields too often seeks in this dull sphere gueless
spirit whose aspirations float above those OF common
humanity and long to float in the incense OF the bless
ed towards the harbor of eternal bliss.
Those that are left here, however, pause not to
think of aught but their own loss, and seldom ven
t,lre to calculate the gan-the eternal gain-of
those they weep for. Were the mourners of the de-
ceased for moment calmly to consider this, their
tears would be tears Of joy, and their prayers those
of gratitude 1t is that the present occasion calls
for serious and melancholy thoughts but these should
| be such to guide in the path OF our deceased
| friend. Like her, we should endeavor to cultivate
| those virtues which adom nature, by obtaining,
as she did, the love and affection of abby eXercs-
ing those traits of character which makes man akin
to angels, and relying on the merits of our beloved
| Redeemer, lay up crown for ourselves hereafter.
OF her last moments, we may truly say,
{" In peaceful slumber, she retired
Like river pure"
The Church has lost in her a regular and faithful
communicate; her aged parent loving and aiiec-
Tomato daughter and she will long be missed from
the household hearths of numerous brothers, sisters,
and friends.
aThou art gone to the grave, but will not deplore
thee
Whose God was thy ransom, thy guardian and guide;
He gave thee--he took thee-and he will restore
thee;
Death hath no sting-for thy Savior hath died"
