WASHINGTON:
TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER /, IS,


Yesterday, at twelve O'Clock, m, in accord
ance with resolution passed three weeks pre-
vious, the first session of the thiry-frst Con
gress terminated.
Among the important bills which have passed
both houses and become laws during the last
week Of the session, may be enumerated the
Army and Navy Appropriation bills, the Fortl-
fcation BILL the Indian Appropriation bill, the
Bounty Land bill, and the Civil and Diplo
matte Appropriation bill, the last of which IN
cludes several important provisions, such as the
rules precuded from passing In time IN the
form of distinct bills

A Geographic despatch from New Orleans,
dated the 9th utimo, informs us that the ship
Portland had arrived there on that day from
Galveston, Texas, bringing dates to the 10Th.
The intelligence of the passage Of the Texas
Boundary bill had reached that State, and was
generally well received. The papers assert
that popular feeling is in favor of it, and that
the proposition Of Congress will in all proba-
bility be accepted by the Legislature of Texas.
The proposition was daily gaining strength.

From an impartial perusal of the Southern
papers, We are inclined to think that the bal
ance Of opinion, both in the number and nhu-
ence of the papers, is decidedly in favor of pa
cifcation. There seems a probability that party
organization will yield to the exigency, and
that Union and Secession parties will be formed.
This is, perhaps, the best method Of bringing
the full weight Of patriotism To bear upon the
agitation. First save the ship, and it will be
then time TO determine who shall command her

We regret that the House has non-concurred
in this measure, so important to the efficient
transaction of the public business. The pre-
sent hall is utterly unsuitable for purposes of
public discussion. We had hoped that another
would have been erected upon plan moro con-
sonant with the principles Of acoustics, and upon
scale more consistent with the present and
prospective extent Of the republic.

Discovery Of an Old Roman T'ouon in Kent
Preparations are being made for excavaling an old
Roman town in Kent, The site lies at the foot OF
the hill crowned by the medimval ruin called Lynne
Castle. The discoveries Of the workmen brought
them into the middle of Roman house, Of not
very large dimensions, eight rooms of which have
been more or less traced. The lower part of lhres
rooms was occupied by a hypocaust, the columns
them standing, but the floor above is unfortunately
gone. These hypoeaustS are almost invariably
found in Roman houses discovered in England

The purest of human beings must need live in
the world as il is; and education is dangerously
imperfect which does not instruct purity as to what
it must openly meet, what it may purely receive
and what 1t should turn from and repel.
If opinion has cried your name up let modesty
cry your heart down, lest you deceive it, or it de-
ceives you. There is no less danger in a great
name than in bad one and no less honor in de-
serving praise, than in enduring it.
