DOU BILE SHEET.
This Week In Congress.

1t is to be hoped that before next Saturday will
be enabled to inform our readers of the final
passage of the territorial bills which are now
under consideration in the House of Representa-
ives They have been taken up in apparently
proper spirit but we can inform the members of the
House that if they wish to reap any credit from
sanctioning them, they must be very expeditions
in doing so. Those bills answer the purpose so
admirably, and are SO eminently calculated to
dispose of the slavery question forever, that their
passage is looked upon as a foregone conclusion,
the community being under the impression that the
House will not dare TO go contrary to the wishes
of their constituents. The anxiety which was
manifested some days since in relation TO those
measures, has almost entirely subsidized. AT first
the public eaert oned some apprehension for their
safety, but that feeling has changed for certainty
that they must eventually be passed. Under these
circumstances, therefore, it is advisable that the
members of the House should go to work as fast
possible, if they wish to reap any credit In
another week there will be but little anxiety en-
tertained in relation TO the question of slavery, tor
disinclined to think of the matter any further. Go
TO work, therefore, members of the House-hurry
up the Senate bills,-Pocket your mileage aud
other plumber and 90 home to your afectionate
wives and little ones, as rapidly as steamboats, and
railroads will take you.

The Atlantic arrived at her wharf yesterday,
after Of the shortest passages on record having
made the voyage from Liverpool in eleven days
and two hours. Jenny Lind had been expected to
come in this noble vessel, and as soon az it was
announced that the Atlantic was in the bay, the
greatest excitement peyaded the entire population
Of the city. We issued, after church hours, an
extra, the sale Of which was enormous for such an
occasion, and may be considered an index of the
excitement.

expected, as the favorable news sent out recently,

such an effect. A still further decline may be
looked for by the next arrival.
