ton to this matter, which has caused more ex-
element in Congress and been more bitterly
contested, than any measure of the session.
With the exception of this paper, however, the
press of this city of both parties have concealed
the fact from their readers, and treated it merely
as kind of pendent to the Deficiency Bill.
But the truth is not to be suppressed, nor the
G. disguised, that the passage Of this measure
opens new division of parties, and foreshad-
ows other measures Of protection vitality inter-
esting to the country-especialy to the South
ern portion of il. 1t is but the beginning of a
series and We do not intend that il shall be
passed over SUD silentio though such course
may suit the "organs" here. One Northern
press has had the fearlessness to expose the real
character of this claim from the beginning, and
we give its protest, while the affiliated Northern
press are singing poe ms in praise of the liberal
ity and nationality" of Congress.
From the Evening Post Of Wednesday.
The STEAMBOAT Automatically ref.
erence to our congressional report, it will be
perceived that the Collins company have sue
appropriation by vote of SO to 81.
The clause of the deficiency bill upon which
the vote was cast runs as follows:
"For additional compensation for increasing
the transportation of the United States mail be.
tween New York and Liverpool in the Collins
! line of steamers to twenty-six trips per annum,
at such times as shall be directed by the Post
master General, and in conformity to his last
animal report to Congress, and his letter OF the
| fifteenth of November last, to the Secretary OF
the Navy, commencing said increased service on
the first of January eighteen hundred and fifty
two, at the rate of thirty.three thou-and dollars
per trip, in lieu of the present allowance, the
sum of two hundred and thirty-six thousand
FIVE hundred dollars: Proridsd, That il shall be
in the power of Congress, at any time after the
thirty first day of December, eighteen hundred
and fifty four to terminate the arrangement for
the additional allowance herein provided for,
upon giving six months notice."
| Thirty-three thousand dollars trip, or about
twice what the British government allow the
Cunard company for the same amount of postal
service. This vote is practical recognition of
two principles, both of which are false-frst
| that the American Congress is at liberty to bring
the resources Of the general government into
competition with the Independent commerce Of
the country; and second, that the American me
chanc cannot build and run Atlantic steamers
half as cheap as their English rivals. Every
| Democrat knows the unsoundnese of the first
proposition, and every ship builder or navigator
| in the United States, daily witnesses the alb
surdity of the second. t", r.. ...- ."
| When we say every Democrat knows the un.
soundness of the first proposition, We perhaps
may be misunderstood. We mean that every

the list Of ayes, come of them intelligent men

expenses, for the benefit of private shipping
