Mr.. Bakers Juvenile Concert

Mr.. Baker proposes to give Concert with his
Juvenile School, on Thursday evening. The
school numbers over one hundred scholars,
excellent teacher, we may expect that the
concert will be worthy of patronage. AT any
rate, it will be worth going to, if it be only
for the sake of seeing so many i" little RESPONSE
bilities." Perhaps there is no wa y in which
the friends of music can do The cause great
err service than by encouraging the cultivation
of the musical talent of the young.

Well pleased they could the aoorld resign,

When round that stern old tower the storm
Howled dismaly and wild,
In yon refectory bright and warm,
The Widespread banquet smiled.
Round went the goblet, and each quaff
Warmed each glad heart the more;
Roand went the song-the jovial laugh
Burst forth in loud uproar
Nor died away till from above,
With measured solemn peal,
The midnight hour was told-ther loUe,
Ind SELF denying zeal!
Oh where are these good Fathers now?
The crumbling walls ask where!
Ger those sepulchral pavements bow
And ask,-1KEY sLUMBER THERE!
Just in the twilight we left the old Cathe-
dral and walked over to the new bridge across
the Dee, said to have an arch of the widest
span in the world. Near this is the old Cas-
tie of Chester, with its massive walls, and
frowning battlements, and its guards pacing
leisurely before the entrance. 1t is held as
fortress by the government. Mounting by
stairs upon the top of the old City WALL we
walked around upon it for a considerable dis
lance, till it was dark and we were tired; and
then took the cars and returned to Liverpool,
whence we were to set out the next day for
London.

the commencement of the war, $6S90O,ooo'
At the close of the present year this arrearase
would be increased to not less than $3.50, 00O,-
600. He then examined the estimates OF the
Secretary of the Treasury for further rsve-
nues, all of which were too high Having
made deductions from each item in the Secre-
tary's calculations, and having shown how the
estimates of expenditure for the next two
years, may be expected to fall below the ac-
tual amounts required, he concluded that the
Secretary had over estimated the receipts tor
the next year about $4,000, 900, and under
rated the expenditures $4,000, O00
Without closing, he gave way to motion
to adjourn, which prevailed.
HoUsE.-Mr. Rockwell, from the Commit
tee on Claims, reported, with amendments,
resolution providing for the preparation and
publication, alphabetically, of all private
claims from the commencement of the XlNth
to the close of the XXIXth Congress, with
the action of the House and Senate on each
particular case.
The Yeas and Nays were called several times
on various motions and amendments, and fl

luion adopted-Yeas 90, Nays 80.
The House went into Committee of the
Whole, Mr.. J. r. Ingersoll in the Chair on
the Presidents Message.
Mr.. Thompson of Indiana, addressed the
Committee. He said he had been represented
to the New York papers some weeks since, as
having made a speech on this floor in favor OF
the subjugation of Mexico. And in the Union
of Tuesday he was again reported as having
made speech in favor of the war and the
would take this opportunity to state his SEN
tments, and proceeded to discuss the qucs-
ton. He insisted that the Nueces, and not
the Rio Grande, was the true line of boundary
between tie United States and Mexico. lie
asserted that Gen. Taylor bad never advised
the march of the army to the Rio Grande, ex-
ccpC nyDOCnetlcdlly. L ne ITeSlueHL Was uc-
termined to make war, and had deceived the
people. He had given Gen. Taylor orders to
march the army beyond the Neuces. ten days
before he knew of Sldell rejection by the
Mexican Government. And the Presiden,
knew that Slidell would be rejected before he
sent him to Mexico. Mr.. Thompson was elo-
quent and severe in his denanciations of the
Government.
Mr. Rhett followed, and replied to the con-
stitutional argument that had been brought
forward as to the distinction between the war;
making and war declaring power of the Gov.
eminent. Congress could only declare war
whereas the waging of war could only be the
action of the Executive.

The Monks Of Chester.

Where are they then those hooded men,
Whose footballs now no more,
Yon arches echo back again
That echoed oft of yore:
Here, in the olden time, they stroled
Along the well worn aisle.
And sweled the solemn chant, which rolled
Through all the massy pile
The reverend Abbot trim and sleek,
With well -feigned look demure,
The burly friar whose aspect meek,
Expressed devotion pure,-
Here dwet in yonder cloisters grim;
And oft were seen. to glide
Thro' those old winding galleries dim,
Like ghosts at eveEtide.
Yon vaults we'll filled with rosy winer
The larder with good cheer,
