ARRIVAL OF THE ERICssoN AT ALEXANDRIA
Washington, Feb. 22.-rhe Ericsson arrived at AL
exaadria last evening from the mouth OF the Poto-
mac, where she had been at anchor for 81 hours
during he late snow storm and thick weather.
Captain Lowber weighed anchor at Sandy Hook at
half past Wednesday evening, and soon stood to
the eastward in the lace of strong gale and heavy
sea, keeping this course Tor so miles when the
wind shifted to the northwest. The Ericsson then
stood in shore, the wind still blowing gale Dur.
ing the gale, the ship stood the test nobly, her en-
glncs making six and half revolutions minute
with The utmost regularity; not the slightest motion
was icepube in the frame work and bracng OF the
engines After the ship and engines were thus full
" tested, Capt Lowber shaped his course for the
Chesapeake, and in gong up the Bay against gale
from the ~ N. E.,encounered heavy snow storm.
On approaching the mouth of the Potomac, the
weather became thick thar the pilot defined TO
take the ship further, and she came To anchorat 10
O'Clock on Saturday morning The engines had
been in operation % hours, without being stopped
for a moment or requiring the slightest adjustment
Only one fireman was on duly at time during the
whole trip. The consumption of coal " as undel five
tons in "a hours.
Capt. Sands OF the Navy, who was on board, is
highly pleased, and says he would willingly go TO
California in her.
Thus the grand principle OF the new motive pow
is now demonstrated reality.

reading. Pending further action on the matter,
the special assignment was called for by MIR Lord
OF Salem.
Special Assignment.-The debate on the bill
concerning the manner of voting in certain cleo
tons, was commenced by MIR Morton, of Fairha-
ven, who made a pointed speech IN favor of the
rejection Of the bill.
MIR Robinson of Lowell addressed the House.
The speech of Mr. Il. was directed to show that
the peculiar circumstances of a majority of his
constituents demanded the Secret Ballot; and,
by inference, that the general wants of the people
OF the Commonwealth sanctioned its position on
the Statute book. He contended that it was a
security against intimidation, bribery, and double
voting, and nothing else would ensure these ad-
vantages.
Mr. Robnson's speech lasted over an hour
He was succeeded by MIR Clark of Northboro,
who complained of the excessive cruelty on the
part of the minority, in requiring reasons from the
majority why this bill should pass. He charac-
terzed it as miserable party effort, made indie
pendent of all reason, and asserted that the peo-
pie could swamp the Wing party in this State,
whether the law passed or not.
Mr. Washburne, of Boston, spoke in favor of
the bill, after which, Mr. Prince of Essex, moved
to amend, by providing second section, pro-
viding that sefsealing envelopes, similar to those
ofl85l, be furnished by the State 10 all who
might wish to deposit their ballots in that manner

things have occurred to all Presidents before him. and will
occur 10 all who to como after him. But warfare

What has been done be remedied by democratic
