.Messrs Editors: Although the British Tariff
bill has passed Congress, and perhaps ere this is
the law of the land, yet I think there is debt
of gratitude due to those members of the ma
tional legislature who voted against its passage,
and stood up manfully in the defence of Amer
ican industry.
| hope that some action will be taken for the
purpose of testifying to them the estimation in
which they are held by the friends of American
labor in this city, and l would, therefore, for
that purpose suggest the propriety of inviting
those members of Congress who voted against
the passage ofthat bill to public dinner, to be
given to them Immediately after the adjourn
ment of the present Congress by the friends to
American industry, without distinction ofparty,
of the city of Baltimore. hope the above
suggestion will be heartily responded to.

MAINE U. S. SENATOR. In the Maine Leg
islature on Saturday last, the House of Repre-
sentatives by vote Of 81 to 46, indefinitely
postponed the consideration of the order direct
ing an enquiry into the recent ballot for U. S.
Senator. We do not know that an investiga-
tion could have produced any result, unless the
candidate supposed to have been accidentally
or fraudulently elected, should see fit to resign,
and submit his claims to another canvass; but
the facts which came out in the course of the
debate were very curious. Fifty-three men,
bers positively stated that they voted on the last
ballot for MIR. Evans, but only 40 votes were
reported for him, and one member said that he
voted on each of the three ballots for VIM. P.
fessenden, bat no vote was returned at all for
that gentleman!

The REMAINS OF MAJOR RMGGoLp The
following letter is addressed to Capts. Kane and
Chffelle, of this city, under date of Camp Mat.
amoras, July llth.
Genlemsn:-I have the honor to acknow-
ledge the receipt of your letter on the 7th inst
proceeded next morning to Point Isabel
where are inferred the remains of my late la
mented friend and commanding officer in order
to consult with Capt. Henley, respecting their
removal to his native State.
l regret exceedingly that | could not meet
with Capt. X, as he was at the Brazos Santa
go, and | could not then be absent but day or
two. However, | have just written to Capt.
kenly, making arrangements for an early meet
ing, when we will arrange everything. The
physicians recommend postponement.
The coffin | saw in the safe custody of the
Quarter Master, who will most cheerfuly at
tend to the shipping of it at any time to Balti-
more.
1t will be gratifying to the relatives and nu-
merous friends of the deceased to know, and |
beg you will inform them, that the officers at
Point Isabel have done every thing in their
power to protect the grave of SO gallant and
distinguished an officer. With this view, Capt
Ramsey, of the ordnance, suggested that it
should be surrounded by railing composed of
muskets captured from the enemy.
The grave now presents very unique and
appropriate resting place for gallant soldier.
-Four posts, ofnamented as well as our limit
ed means would allow, are erected, one at each
corner, connected by pieces of timber, the up
per having holes bored at every six inches,
through which the musket barrels are placed,
resting on the lower one; the bayonets are ali
Jfred, and the whole painted black. Appropri-
ate head and foot boards are erected.
propose sending this enclosure with the re-
mains, as it would be most appropriate pro.
lection to the monument you are about erect
ing in Greenmount Cemetery.
Be pleased, gentlemen, to accept my most
sincere and heartfelt thanks for the very COM
plmentary manner in which you are pleased
to mention my humble services in the recent
engagements with the Mexcans.

Your obd't. servant

TAXING CLERGYMEN's SALARIES. A case
was tried in Virginia, to impose the fine on a
clergyman, for refusing to declare the amount
of his salary. 1t was contended that it was
tax on religion, that the salary was uncertain,
and could not be reasonably laid, and there
fore could not be taxed. The Court held that
the salaries of clergymen are liable to be taxed
like other sources Of income, and gave judg-
ment for the fine.

A LADY OF TRAVEL-RoME,

BYJ BAYARD TAYLOR.
Wreck Of the fallen world
Ghost of the mighty Past,
Planet, that, crashing hurled,
Fell from its orbit vast
How have the later spheres
Rolled o'er thy ruined home!
How have thousand years
Scattered thy glory, Rome
Prone, like god like form
Stripped by the spelling worm,
Ravaged by the wind and storm
Gone is thy greatness, now
And in thy flied grave,
Washed by The Theirs wave,
The foot of the meanest slave
Tramples thy brow
Shadows of centuries glide,
Voiceless, around the scene
Phantoms of power and pride,
Gazing with mournful mien.
Temple and tomb and arch,
Shattered and lonely stand;
Rent by the Vandal's march
Spoiled by the robbers hand!
Far through the Flavian hall
Beasts of the desert crawl,
And on the Cesars' wall
Ivy and brambles grow;
Relics of temples lay
Heaped by the Appian way
Affairs to dull Decay,
Wondering slow!
Yet, 'mid the waits of Time
Llngers the fame of old
Calling, with voice sublime,
Out from its temples mould
What though the Pierad hills
Look on fettered land
Slaves by the Sabine rills-
Slaves on the Tyrshene strand
Still does thine empire last,
Ghost of god-like Past.
Still does the world SO vast
Yield TO thy silent swaY
Though in the food of years
Vanished both realms and spheres,
Thine mid the blood and tears,
Passed not away!
Viewless, yet potent still,
Reigneth the old renown,
ThIonged on the classic hill
Crown d with the deathless crown,
There, at its shrine adore,
Breathless, the sons of Art;
Led by the laws of yore,
States into being start.
Bards from Virgil caught
Germs of undyng thought
Thunders that Tully wrought
Burst upon tyrants now;
Realms of the Living Dead,
Reign, till by Freedom led,
Empires o'er earth shall spread,
Greater than thou!
