CONGRESS.

The past week has been an exciting one at
Washington. In the Senate, Mr.. Webster
made reply to the attacks which had been
made upon him in regard to the Ashburon
Treaty, which produced no little sensa,ion.--
He was very severe in his remarks upon Mr..
Dickinson, Of the Senate, and Z. J. Ingersoll,
os the House. In the House, c. ]. Ingersoll,
by way Of a se,-off, has accused Mr.. Webster
of corruption whilst engaged in his duties as
Secretary of State under Mr.. Tyler. A reso.
luton. calling for papers TO establish or refu,e
this charge. has passed. In short time we
shall know The truth of the whole matter. In
fhe meantime we have no hesitation in decla-
ring our conviction that Mr. Webster will pass
through this ordeal with signal honor.

Our Foreign Relations.

The Philadelphia North American makes the
following terse and just remarks:
If by "foreign relations" were understood
our national kindred abroad, it will be coneedrI
that our presen, policy would soon leave us ~
relations at all. We have succeeded mlracu-
lousy within a iwelvemohlh in doing more, hv
buster, blunder and false pre,euces 10 uni,tr-
sal dominion, towards cutting ourselves of from
all sympathy beyond our homestead, than uur
dull fathers could have effected in half cen-
Jury.

tiUeS.
GENTLEMEN:-The general he1llh Of the
people, the rich rewards Of husbandry, the
quickenpg spirit that peTvades trade and
industry, The enlarged prosperity of our
country, and It's advance 10 moral and in-
telectual attainmen's, these, under Jus'
sense of our dependence, swell our CRATE
ful ackno Judgements, at this time, TO HIM
from whose beneticence they all proceed.
Nothing has occurred since The adjourn
meni of the Legislature, 10 interrupt the
harmony or check the energies of our
Commonwealth On the contrary, intelIi-
gent enterprise has been every where
crowned with success.
The exertons of our people TO meet the
engagements of the State have thus far beer
successful. The payment, by number
of Counties of the whole amount OF 'heiI
,azes for l845, several months before the
time at which they have heretofore beer
collected, added more than 5000 900 to the
efTe ective revenues of the year; and The last
Legislature having excluded certain classes
of debts from the claims to be Immediately
provided for by the Treasury we have
been enabled to pay the interest which fell
due on the funded debt within the past fis'
cal year. On the first day Of the present
Session, the balance remaining in the
Treasury was about s625 900, which with
the accruing revenues will be applicable tc
the demands Of the first of next month
We have ,hus the reasonable and crafty
ing assurance, that the interest will then all
so be punclualy paid. The public deb. O

General, was as follows:

From this view OF the subject it is appa-
rept, tha, the assessment of the year 1916,
IN real and personal estates, and the reve-
nue. of ,he year proper sderlvable from all
other sources, taken together, will be in
sufficient to meet the demands upon the
Treasury during the same period, by the
sum of $40 ,296 90; and that in supply
ing the deficiency. the balance in the Trea
sury, on the Is, of December 1916, will
have been reduced to $Ss, 500 90, and the
arrears of outstanding taxes 10 the sum Of

our present financial system is inadequate

mands on the Treasury, except when aid

The question then REQUIRED upon the passage
Of the bill
Mr.. John H. Custis called for the ayes
and noes.
Mr. MCPHERSON explained his vote. For
gainst every proposition to tax the people for
this bib required nothing from the Treasury,
he would vote fer it with pleasure. There
We're no danger to lie apprehended from the
speculation in lands. AS soon as this bill
should pass the Senate, the value OF the lands
along the line CT the improvement would be
greatly enhanced, and the company would find
it difficult matter 10 purchase the lands al
less than their value.
Mr.. Rec said he belonged to that class in
the House which was generally found in op-
position to schemes of internal improvement
He was friend Of internal improvement, but
opposed 10 appropriations from the treasury fer
chat purpose.
Mr. Flowers thought that every man had a
right 10 construct read through his own land
and as this company proposed to construct the
railroad through their own lands at their ex-
pense, he would not deny them this privilege.
