IL reality, it was tbe work Of Two leading
men. Nlr. Foster, On the part Of tae House
committee, composed Of a majority of dem
oerats, aud Mr. Jordan, On the part Of the
Senate committee, with an opposition ma
jority, were the men who, in spirit Of nu-
tual concession, agreed upou the bill. LIS
endorsement by both Houses Is an evi-
d@nee Of the justice of their adjustment
The fact ,hat Philadelphia is given bai
four Senators, one less than she has had
dsriug the last sevcn years, and iTo less
than Ler population now entities her to-
was selely On account Of the constitution
al.restficiion, which both Houses decided
to be imperative. So ne good lawyers hold
the opposite view, but the weight OF nrgr-
ment and authority is clearly with The lea-
joritn.

sickness, nationally, in any other way
Now, Washington is enc of the sick!iest

say that it is any verse than Sierra Leone
or the const Of Guiana, but it is quite as bad
as ei;her Of those couu;ry.sea Of death
Why the site was ever selected for the
builiing of a national capital, no rational
man ever yet could understand. In Bedlaln
il ought to be easy FOR the inmates to see
the philosophy OF the business. It woult:
have been wiser TO have placed our capital
in the DsEal Swamp, which has some good
pieces of land, and is said to be healthy
TO those who are used TO il. Everybody
who goes 10 Washington is sure to lie sick,
from the President 80 tue porter. 1t used
to he said that tic place would improve as
its "nagri6ccnt distance" should be made
TO disappear, and there should be many
houses built, ai.d many people to fill them;
bu. although the city has sroxa 50 fast d
late years as TO expect TO have one hundred
thousand inhabitants At the taking of the
next census, in 1860, il is as unhealthy nor
as il WIS when tue C6ngrossmcn who re-
pealed Tue aiiou law were used to wadt
through pea-sOup mud, and to lay up ar

dollars, was ul.Ger discussion in the Senate
this afternoon, and there IS 10 bo night
session this evening for consideration OF
the same SUBJECT No test vote b2s yet
been taken, but all the indications are that
it will be defeated by pretty decided iua-
jority. Should this be done the record will
be all righs--the democratic House having
passed tie bill, and an American RcpubH-
can Senate defeated it. Let Us pay of
our immense State debt 6rst, aud reduce
our taxes, and then il We have any fund /,
10 spare for nlaking railroads OF canals, re
may safely take the matter Into sericRs con
sideration. Let US be Just before we are
generous.
The Governor has already signed the
bill for the sale Of the Main Line Of public
works, AID the advertisements for tie sale
are already in the papers, There seems &c
be a settled conviction that 4 sake will he
effected under The bill on the 25th Of next
non;h, at sum not less than nae millions
of dollars. Should these expectations Ee
realized it is highly probable the whole
three mill State lax viii be repealed 1T tie
next session of the Legislature. If 50
