Congress.

The 10Th and Goth July were taken up by the
house in the consideration Of business relating to
the territories. a number Of bills, importan, to
the territories, were acted upon, but none passed.
July %, Mr.. Smith, Conn, presented four re-
solutions of the Legislature Of tina, state J. Against
the distribution Of the proceeds ofte sales OF the
public lands among the states: 2. In opposition
to the West Point Academy: 3. Against the bank
rupt law A. In favor Of discriminating duties, and
such tariff (with cash duties) as will, with the
proceeds Of the lands, protect the domestic indus
try of the country, and be sufficient for wise and
frugal administration of the government.
A bill was ordered to be engrossed FOR third
reading in the senate, regulating the rates post
age, preventing the establishment of private ex-
presses, the transportation of letters by foreign
steamers, ETC. Thcrbill fixes the rates of postage
as follows For single letters transmitted by mail
any distance not exceeding thirty miles, five cts. ;
over thirty and not exceeding one hundred and
fifty, ten cents over ono hundred aud fifty and
not exceeding three hundred, fifteen cents; over
three hundEsd and not exceeding five hundred,
twenty cents and exceeding five hundred miles,
twenty-five cents.
July 18th, Mr.. Arnold of Tennessee introduced
bill for the reduction Of the pay of members of
congress. Mr.. A. was, on the occasion, allowed
to make flaming demagogue speech, and then
the house adjourned. On the following day it
was again taken up and read twice, and then Mr.
A., thinking probably the game of dcmagogism
had been carried far enough, moved lis reference
to select committee, expecting thereby, Of course
to smother it: but the house, wishing perhaps to
tease Mr.. A., refused, and, after a short debate,
actually ordered the bill to be cngrossed! Mr.. A.
now fe, scared; he spoke desperately against
hasty legislation, urged the great mpcrfcctions"
of his ot0n bill, and plead like good fellow for
time. At length on the eth the house relened,
gave Mr. A. his committee, aud thus the humbug
ended.
The discussion on the "big ,arirhill' was COM
menccd in the senate on the 18th, and up to the
latest dates was proceeding with undated vigor.
The senate amendments to the army appropria-
ton bill, which had been laid aside to take up the

support of tF,c Press.

We bave heard of late many ridiculous things
said abou, supporting the press, and not few sad
forebodings as to the fate of our own. An idea
seems to prevail that our business is at the mercy
of few men, and that their will alone can pull u;
down or build us up at pleasure. Now, wihou
wishing to create i'll feeling in any quarter, or &c
revive past anmosities, we will merely state ou
position, and give few ideas we have concerning
the support Of press.
We have been long enough connected with th,
printing business to know that the supporters OF
press afe far from being those who have ambitious
aspirations to gratiiy-leading politicians. IHey
though always ready TO give advice to, and Away,
finding fault with editors, are seldom found con.
tributing that substantial support which alone can
maintain press free and Independent. Their
patronage generally is freely given, but their pan
days are like angels visits, few and far between
So fan from being the supporters of press, such
are obviously the worst enemies press can have
The real supporters of press are the farmers, the
mechanics, and the aboring men--- men who mind
their own business and are willing to let Others d.
the same, Such generally subscribe for paper
because they believe it to be worth wha, they pay
for II, and being men who live within their means
if they find they can 10 longer pay for the paper
they have the candor to tell the printer so and have
1t stopped. They are men, too, who, in passing
upon the course OF an editor do not, like the poll
tician, approve or condemn as i, may tend favor
ably or adversely to tho promotion of his own
ends, but they are guided in their judgment By
their notions Of right and wrong, and though they
may not approve all tho views aud opinions of an
editor, they will not prescribe him for them, if
they believe them to be honestly entertained
As regards us, we do not ask or expect the sup
port of any man who is not willing to allow us
the privilege Of thinking and acting for ourselves
We launch our bark upon the ocean and give her
10 the tempest and the gale without fear of danger.
But il VIC are unable to ride the waves or face the
storm, we shall sink "on our own hook" We
cling to no taction-wc seek for safety in no haven
but that afforded by the great body Of the people
We ask that support only which is freely given
and for which he who gives it expects an cqui-
volcnt We would not knowingly accept the
support Of him who, in extending it, conceiyes
that he is doing an act of charity. We do not
consider ourselves paupgs on the community
begging for livelihood---bu,, like all other me-
chanics, seek to sell as much of our ware as we
can, and ct such price viii afford u.s. if posi-
bic, fair competence.

Now, sir, l pronounce these charges

to, which | shall be slow to believe, it is

bic farmers in that neghborhooj, not long
since. The family had baked some pies carly in
the morning, and had set them in the cellar to cool
for dinner. 1t was observed before the pie was
cut, that it appeared very full, and, sooner was
the knife thrust into it than snake issued out
to tho amazcment and terror of all at the table.

reason for committing the act he told the police

The New World.

A singular revolution has taken place in the
mode Of publishing new works in this country.
Formerly the cost of common sized novel, vols.
octave, printed and bound very indiilercnily, was
in the eastern cities, from $ to 81, and their price
in the ives, made them almost sealed books here.
At present, under the system pursued in the Office
of the New World in New York the same worl,
can be had there for Si2l cents, and for a few
cents more. any where in the l.. $ To thu sub.
scribers Of the New World such works are irc-
quently sent in the shape of extras gratis. Thus,
among others, we have lately received 'The Lot
terry of Life" splendid novel by the countess OF
Blcssington, and "Abel Parsons" a tale of thrill
ling interest, written expressly for the New World
and this liberal donation is soon to be followed up
by others. The New World itself is surpassed in
no particular by any of the mammoth weeklics in
the u. S. 1t is published at 50 per annum, by J,
