During the frs. month or six weeks

During the first month or six weeks
Of session, there is rarely more BUSH
ness done than will make two numbers q
week--one of the Congressional Globe
and one Of the Appendix; but during the
remainder of session, there is usually,
sufficient matters for two or three NUM-
bers OF each every week. The next ses-
sion will be unusually interesting; there
fore, calculate that the Congressional
Globe and Appendix together will make
at least $500 large quarto pages, printed
in small type, BREWER and nonpareil.-
Complete Indexes to both will be fur
nished at the end Of the session.
If subscribers shall not be satisfied
with the work, the money paid by them
for it will be refunded to them whenever
they return the numbers which may have
been received by them. l will give sub
scribers the subscription price for any of
the previous volumes of the Congression.r
al Globe or the Appendix, except for the
last session, and will, thank any person
who will let me have them.
Ihave few copies of the back VOL
umes of the Congressional Globe and
Appendix for sale az $5 volume bound,
which it is probable will be disposed of
soon; and when thew are, they will then,
no doubt, command at least $40 vol
ume, as they cannot be reprinted for less
than that sum. There are rs back VOL
umes. t IS So aE

BALTIMORE, March q IS o. M
This has been the darkest day in the calendar,
with abundance of thunder, lightning, and black
and threatening clouds, but with little accompany
ing rain. The lightning has checked all telegra-
phic operations; consequently nothing of interest
has been received from any quarter.
As our city is, and has been full of all manner of
rumors for some weeks past, relative to the diff
Guilty between the Collector Of the Port, Colonel
Kane, and the Wing City Convention, who have
sought his removal from the coectorshp by an
appeal to the President and the Secretary of the
Treasury, have obtained from reliable source
the following facts relative to the matter:
Some time in the month Of February last the
"Wbig State Central Committee" in consequence
OF solicitations from persons who had been apph-
Giants to the Collector for appointments under him,
to unite 10 request to have certain Of the en-
ployees Of the Collector dismissed the ground Of
their being Democrats, took the subject under
consideration. After patient investigation Of the
facts ofthe case, the Central Committee rejected the
proposition, from the fact that the referred
to were of class of officers who are required to
possess a thorough knowledge of the revenue laws,
and to be very expert in the discharge of their du-
tofore, under all administrations, been exempt
from removal, except from other than political
causos-froquent changes in their departments be-
ing calculated 10 cmbarrass merchants and others
having intercourse with the Collectors office.
The matter was then brought before tho Wing
City Convention, and a committee appointed, with
power TO call the Collector and Postmaster,
and ask the removal Of certain clerks in their
offices, who are Democrats. To this demand
the Collector refused to comply, on the ground
that the removals asked for were contrary
TO all former usage, and. If made, would result
in endless confusion in the revenue practice OF
the dstrict-at the same time denying the right
Of the convention 20 interfere with him in the
discharge Of his official dutes. A committee
then appointed to wait on the President and
Secretary of the Treasury TO solicit the removal
Of Colonel Kane, who proceeded TO Washington,
performed their duty, and returned rome three
weeks since. The Collector, resting on the APP
prevail OF the Wing Central Committee and the
commercial community, has taken no action; nor
has he had any correspondence with the Depart
ment the subject; consequently all the rumors
afoat arc uufounded.
MIR. Morrow, who wns removed by the Col
leotor on the charge Of "conspiring in a secret
meeting TO have portion Of his brother officers
removed" has not been reinstatcd by order Of the
Secretary Of the Treasury, ss asserted in the pa
pers. which rumor also found its way into my
letter a few days since.
