NOT A TEST VOTE.

Our readers will have observed, perhaps with
some surprise, last week, that only forty members
of Congress voted for Mr.. Winthrop's motion to
suspend the rules in order to take upa resolution
against the annexation of Texas. OF these forty,
all but one were Wings; only one Wing from the
North voted against it. We have now alluded to
the vote for the purpose Of saying that it was not
test vote, as many who voted against this motion
did so solely on the ground that they would not
suspend other business in order to admit mere alb
stract question: which no conclusive action could
be had. How the House will stand is not yet set
tied, though VIC have seen surprising indications
that the Locofocos are expected, as party, TO go
for annexation. That such indications may have
been shown for effect, upon Southern votes is very
likely; but as often as that party has basey sur
rendered itself to the dcaton of the slaveocracy,
slow to believe that they will make this fear
full sacrifice.

o. The Locofoco editors occasionally indulge
their bad propensity of abusing their opponents by
calling them I" British Wings" Now whether they
can find bird of that feather we don't know, but
we are sure of putting our finger upon British
Locofoco" in the author of the following:
"The subject of Tariff has been again discus
ed in the American Congress, without any result.
There seems to be growing impression that no.
thing will be done relative to the Tariff until the
new President is elected, and as Mr. Van Buren, is
understood to be favorable to low Tariff we see
with regret that his prospects are becoming small
by degrees, and beautifully less"

LOCOFoCO ELECTIONEERING.

David Lee Child writes from Washington as fol-
lows, March 4;
Gan attempt was made by Mr. Jameson, Loco I
of Missouri, to appoint more folders Of documents,
for the service of the House. This, after a great
deal of skrmshmg and confusion, was laid on the
table.
"Ths was designed to increase, at the expense
of the nation, the facilities of circulating every
false, ibelods, or inilammatory pamphlet, news
paper which any member of the House may think
proper to write or patronze. Tens Of thousands of
Walker's pamphlets, in favor Of the annexation of
Texas and 5000 Of Amos KeRdatPS "tract No. !,
on CIG1S duels, have been lately folded and des-
patched at the national charge. | care not how
much dnelling is denounced, but heed South
ern member say, 'I,heSe are for the East They
must not go South, they would help him there"
And in like manner another might say of Walk
cr's pamphlet "These must go South : they must
not go North, as they would hurt us there"
Again, March 8;
".Nr. Ratibun continued his reply to Mr.. Grams
ton, and adyerting to the grounds Of the complaints
Of the twenty-six members lof the Rhode Island
Legslaturel respecting the old charter stated that
it put all power into the hands Of one-lrd of the
people.
81 could not but reflect upon the political chaos,
which was before me 5000 pamphlets are paid
for, ranked and sent off by duelSts against duel
ling Mr.. Rathbun was now appealing to South
ern Democrats to come up to the aid of the Dorr-
ties, because one third of the people under the old
charter had all the power. What an argument for
Virgnans, where none but freeholders, or the
leasehoders, of the tot0ns and cities, can vote !
What an argument for South Carolinans, where II
man, to be representative in the Legislature, must
own ten other men, and where much less than one
third of the white people have majority of the
Legislature! In Virginia about the same minority
of the whites have majority in the Legislature.
Yet the Virginia, and South Carolina members,
countenance the Rhode Island memorialists Z"
These are certainly beautiful specimens of the
honesty of Locofoco electioneering- true, to
boot. The people are to be gulled, if possible
and to pay for it too; for these men get So per
day for fudge speeches on the Rhode Island rebel
lion, and for war speeches on Oregon and Texas,
all for President making, with no view probably
Of definite action.

a Bad Sign.-The Albany Argus, Mr.. Van Bu'

What becomes of the Locooco doctrine of nstruc-
tons? Strange that State after State was pushed
to instruct in favor of paying Gen. Jacksons fine
second time, and yet that Mr. Van Buren's State
is now forbidden to instruct in reference to mo-
mentous subject as the annexation of Texas! II
this is because Mr. Van Buren, is afraid of the
ought forever to condemn him. If he wishes to
play double both parties ought to let him play alone

Mr.. Sturgeon presented resolutions of the Penn

House, and with only ono dissenting vote in the
Senate. This is u noble condemnation of the new

are defending.

Mr.. Dromgoolo, from the select committee on
the resolutions of Virginia and Alabama, reported
two resolutions
1s That the rule of representation (of slaves
was the result of a compromise and ought to be
held sacred by the friends of the Union.
I'd. That no proposition to alter or amend the
constitution in this respect ought to be recommen-
ded by Congress, but that every such proposition
ought to be promptly and decisively condemned.
Mr.. Adams and others made strenuous efforts to
get these resolutions before the committee of the
whole for debate, but the GAG was inexorably
enforced. The first was adopted 1913 to Is, and
the second 1917 to Al. when we get the names
we will notice this vote again.

Profit on G Maps,
slo,49l


And yet in the face of all this the Committee
said that they did not know that any one was to
blame! Mr.. Adams, with bitter sarcasm, said this
was the most miserable abstraction he had ever
heard of.
1t also appeared that the contractor had been
paid $4,000 for lhographing charts which could
have been done as well for So05; profit of Sl2-
Cos. In another instance he had been paid Sl5-
1868 for what cost him but Sl,llS; profit of Sl4
2l5. charge of $50 had been made for boxes
and their carriage, when the same only cost So. In
a bill of $40 for paper, $1,000 was profit; in a
bill of $6750 for printing $4,000 was profit. The
Committee also showed that $3.50 had been paid
merely for cooring maps and charts; so much for
every red and blue line, &C., by which the young
ladies who coored them could earn $50 and $50 "a
day. Between 500 and $500 had been paid to the
daughter of the Secretary of the Senate, while he
received salary of $4,000.
The House was positively electrified; and the re-
suit was the formation Of Standing Committee of
three to take all this business away from the Clerk
for the future.
