What is Congress About! !

This is question which, doubtless, some
of our subscribers would be glad to have
answered. In the House, the Fusionists
have some seventy odd majority against the
Democrats, and yet they have not passed
single law of general nature, that we are
aware of, during the session, which has now
lasted about four months. The time hai
been occupied in making abolition speeches
and in keeping up the 'fntensifcation" with
regard to Kansas. One month was spent
by the agitators in quarreling among them
selves about the spoils of Office, at an ex'
pense to the government of near quarter
million ofdollars. After the Speakership had
been decided, the members began feather.
ing their nests in good earnest, and among
other things voted to themselves Library
giving to each member about fifteen hun
dred dollars worth Of books. The Reedel
and Whitfield contested election case was
then taken up and the House, after severa
weeks spent in "shriek's for freedom" con-
cluded that the salvation Of Reeder and the
Black Republican cause required a CON-
mittee to be sent to Kansas, which said
committee was authorized to take ten thou
sand dollars and sundry Marshals, Consta,
bles, &C., and go to that territory and they
are not expected to return until they have
procured or framed by shook or crook"
document for electoneering purposes.
If anything of importance transPires, We
shall not fail to record it, but we beg to bC
excused from filing our columns with sucl
proceedings as have recently been going on
in Congress.

The Fusion LegIsIature.

The Statesman makes the follow.
ing remarks in reference to the acts Of
the recent Legislature;
Ii our readers have taken the troub.
le to follow carefully these laws
through, they have no doubt observed
that the greater portion Of them are
partisan. All those in reference to
the State House, Penitentiary and Be-
neyolent Institutions, were passed for
no other reason than to turn one set OF
men out of Office and put another set
in. So sensible were the members Of
the waste of time and money in GO
ing through these forms of legislation,
that they conceived it necessary to get
up as much smoke as possible, to blind
the eyes of the people, and thus, if
possible, prevent detection.
Their second session, wholly useless
for any good, unless it is to repeal
their acts already passed, was got up
as part of the machinery of humbug,
and to pocket an additional sum from
the Treasury.
The session will cost $75,O10-the
delay, waste, and visit of Architects,
in reference to the new State House,
viii cost SIS, 900 more-and the three
unconstitutional Committees, if they
ever meet, will cost $4,000 more
making in those three items alone,

Arrival Of MIR. Buchannn.
PHILADELpnIA, April 2

PHILADELPHIA, April 20.
At exactly - o'clock to-day, the
citizens were informed by the sound
of cannon, of the arrival of Mr.. Buch
anan, ex-Minister to England. The
avenues in the vicinity of Walnut
street wharf were thronged with ex-
cited and curious spectators; and upon
the pier itself q considerable number
of persons gathered on the arrival Of
the boat. The crowd formed into a
line, as Mr.. Buchanan, accompanied
by Sam'l W. Merrick, chairman of
the Committee ofthe Board Of Trade
stepped on shore and proceeded to
his carriage. Cheers in abundance
saluted him, one exhiliarated individ-
ual shouted loudly,for President Buch-
anan, and seemed determined to in
spire the surrounding persons with
his own enthusiasm. Accompanied
by several Common Councilmen Mr..
Buchanan proceeded to the Philadel-
phia Exchange Reading Room, where
he was received and welcomed in a
short speech, by John Welsh, Esq.
Mr.. Buchanan replied, saying he
felt as if his foot was again upon his
native hearth, and knew that in the
opinion of his fellow citizens, he had
not discredited his country nor its
principles. He had been absent above
three years, and was happy to be once
more in his native land. He was ad.
dressed by the committe of merchants
as a visitor, and not as party man
and he would respond in the same
feeling. The large hall in which the
reception took place was crowded il
every part, during the progress of Mr.
Buchanan's speech. He was intenup
ted by frequent applause, and at the
termination he was loudly cheered.-
Mr.. 3. then proceeded to the Merch
ants Hotel, where he was greeted BY
many friends,
