THE TARIFF RII,L,.

The House of Representatives have been busily
engaged to-day in taking questions upon the tariff
bill. The House was crowded with members; and
though this great subject was producing an intense
interest among actors as well as spectators, we
mover saw the House exhibiting a more orderly
dgni6ed, and august spectacle. Several speeches
were delivered to-day at the heel Of the debate. We
understand the argument Of General Mckay, the
chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means,
was extremely able and conclusive. The House
was in very good humor, and was advancing with
great propriety and dignity to the decision of the
question. As at present advised, we think the
bill of the committee, amended as it has been
in of its PROVISIONS will probably succeed, and
may pass to-snouow.v Tho -Brinkcrhof storm has
passed away, leaving the atmosphere purer thar
ever

We had not the pleasure Of hearing the debate in
the House Of Representatives to-day. 1t ceased at
Q o'clock, according to the previous arrangement,
when the House proceeded to take the question on the
tariff bill. We had not the opportunity, of course,
Of hearing the speeches Of Messrs. Mcdowell, OF
Ohio, and Rathbun, Of New York; the former Of
whom, we understand, was polite enough to deal
some liberal blows at ourselves, which, we assure
him, "have passed away like the idle wind which
We regard not" Mr.. Rathbun, we learn, made
some bitter attacks, couched in no very decorous
phrase, upon Judge Wick, Of Indiana. We may
form some Judgment Of this gentlcmNn's course,
when we state that in his speech he anmadvered
with great severity on the proposition to lay duty
on tea and coffee, but when he came to vote, he &C.
toaIly voted against striking them from the bill
HE object, as well as that Of the wings, was evi
IDENTIFY TO make the bill as unpopular as possible, that
they might defeat il.
As soon we have seen these two last con vulsive
speeches, we shall take due notice of them, if we
find thsm entitled to any further aninadversion.

1t is fact, noticed by several this day in the
committee of the House, that distinguished men,
Der from Massachusetts voted for doing away the
bountes on the fsherics--for the obvious purpose
of defeating the BILL by turning the seven votes OF
Maine against it.
And yet few of our democratic and decided
ant-tarifT friends joined this wing in thus vo'
ting, and thus assisting to defeat the bill. Time

give and when they take away the bounties.

press the opinion that about sixty-6ve per-
sons perished by the sinking of that boat
There were one hundred and twenty-five
persons on board at the time Of the atci-
dent; and Of that number sixty-four reach
edehe shore, four Of whom were frozen TO
death.

GAINESVILLE, who were on the boat at the
time, and who narrowly escaped with
their lives, have reached home, and de-.

MILITARY,

The annual report of Gen. Winfield
Scott, Commanding General Of the Army,
transmitted to Congress with the Presidents
Message, is concise husiness-like docu-
ment, Favorable aIiuson is made by it to
the expedition Of Col. Kearney along the
route OF Oregon emigration to the South
Pass of the Rocky Mountains, and Col. X.
is quoted as recommending biennial or tri-
ennial cavalry expeditions INTO the terrific
ry instead of the establishment Of advance
ed military posts on the Oregon and Santa
Fe routes. Reference is also made 10 the
expedition under Capt. Sumner up The
left bank of the river ST. Peters 10 the Lac
Qui Pare north Of the 45lh parallel OF lati-
tude. The. impression made upon the
great number of Indians visited by these
expeditions is said to have been very salu-
tary, and much praise is bestowed on the
commanders, officers and men. The con-
duct Of Brevet Brigadjer General Taylor,
in command Of the Army Of Occupation
stationed at Corpus Christi, Texas, meets
with the decided appreciation OF the Conn
handing General.
The report recommends small augmen
tation Of the regular forces for the Ordiro
ry service of the extended frontiers TO tn
Northwest, West & Southwest. This re
commendatioa is made without reference
to any immediate danger Of war, Indian o.
foreign. The report suggests two plans

seriously persisting in his assertion, took
occasion 10 reason with his friend upon
his own atheisIjc Il principles. "Yon will
not" said he, "ba.jeve that this small bo-
dy originated in mere chance; and yet you
would contend that those heavenly bolies

Thy rocks and blooming wllds proclaim
Protection from above,

Beneath Thy vallies rest

Bright embIems Of the blesi;
And round them, clothed in silence, lies
The moudering patriots fame,
Embalmrd in sacred MemOry's fire
Immortal honors claim.

Thou art my native land!
Thy joys, so pure, can ne'er be found
Upon foreign strand.
Tho Pleasures path and Fortunes smiles
In other climes seem fair,
The brightest of their hopes and joys
Can naught with thee compare.
America, love thee still!
Resplendent glories gIeam
Through all thy deeds; the sacred light
Shall ever be my theme.
Pure from the realms of victory's sky,
The crown was given to thee;
Midst starry lights eternal stands
The orb of Liberty!
