o. A recent event seems to have
created considerable excitement in the
fashionable circles Of Washington. Miss
Cocoran, daughter Of the banker, has
been the object of attention from the
Secretary of the Spanish Legation, and
received his visits, in opposition 10 the
wishes Of the father. Being surprised
in a claudestine visit 10 the house, by
the unexpected entrance Of her father,
the Don attempted to conceal himself
under the piano, but was detected by
the parent, who dragged him out Of his
hiding place, and kicked BIN into the
streets. The Spaniard has talked Of il
as breach Of Diplomatic privilege, and
an insult to the representative Of Spanish
sovereignty, and subject for diplomatic
notes. The finale Of the whole affair is
the father and daughter, a few days ago
suddenly and privately took their depart
ure for Europe, where they will remain
till the excitement subsidies. The gen.
eral impression is that the lady has
been guilty Of any improperly, but thai
she has been simply prosecuted wo
man.

o. Mr.. Farmer, who opened Free
Dining Room in New York for the last
winter, has closed his establishment and
made a report Of the experiment to the
public. He has supplied 2s0, 1913 meals
to destitute persons, at an average cost
Of IA cents each. The whole expendi-
ture, attending the charity, has been
$4,000, all Of which he has paid out oil
his own pocket. He has found work Tor
I'LL persons from employers, who came
to his eatiug house to find laboIers. lie
is so we'll satisfied with the experiment
that he expresses hope that every ward
in the city will be furnished with a siml-
lar establishment next winter. we
doubt very much the policy OF such in
discriminate charities. They may be
REQUIRED in seasons Of great and unex-
pected calamities, in which thousands Of
industrious and meritorious laborers may
b. without warning deprived oflabor and
the means Of support. But free eating
houses would be the worst nurseries oil
idleness and improvidence that could be
introduced into city. They'would dc
more evil than the dram shops. Free
indiscriminate gifts are the worst forms
Of charity.

that it is the intention Of Judge De
Bruler, Of Spencer, to enter upon the
canvas, as an independent candidate for
Congress, should no other anti.Eecomp-
ton candidate appear, in opposition to
Judge Niblack. Judge De Bruler is a
strong man in the District-of high con-

to the State as one of her representatives.
But we learn that Judge Hovey has
avowed his intention to run as an anti

A GENERAL BANKRUPT LAw.-The con
viction 10 becoming general that the business
of tho nation cannot be again placed on q
solid and reliable basis, until commercial
confidence is restored throughout the coun-
try, through the agency Of federal legisla-
ton. No nation should be without sound
code Of universal application, to regulate the
commercial intercourse Of its citizens. In
stead of one complete code for the intercourse
Of creditors and debtors, usually denomina-
ted General Bankrupt law, we have thir-
ty-ons conflicting codes, in as many differ
ent States, which render the enforcement OF
contracts, and the collection of debts, te-
dious, expensive, and often impossible. The
object OF the present movement in Congress
should be, and we trust il, to remedy these
evils. The people are prepared to sustain
any just law on the subject, for II is evident
to our Judgment that the business Of the
nation can no longer be carried on with even
prosperity and unbroken confidence, until q
uniform System like the one now proposed
shall be adopted by Congress-.

real rites; while twenty of tho leaders, with
badges of Grape upon their arms, escorted the
be-coffined Goddess. In the ie1 glare of the
torches, and the deep darkness of the night,
the procession was imposing. With the ex-
ception of the unpropitious weather, the
demonstration was o successful one. After
the procession dissolved, the people return

Italian, denouncing Napoleon and tyranny,
and eulogising 0rsini, Perrei, and other mar

Of their official lu.ies, is becoming the sub
ject of severe censure by the public press. A
correspondent from Washington says:
On tine day allotted for private claims, last
week, only eighty-one members were in the
hall when the Committee rose, and moro
than six hours were squanderej IN srrcsting
absences and hearing excuses for non-at-
tendance, while the needy and suffering ap-
plicants for deferred justice, filled the Hobbies
and galleries as spectators of this discredit-
able spectacle. After doubling their pay,
Congress has grown more negligent than
ever, and the general as we'll a. private in

manner that is really disgraceful. The soon

Executive PRoscRIPTIoS.-A letter from
Washington says that ]. CLANCY Jones, the
INSCRIPTIONS adherent Of Mr.. Buchanan, and
the person who signs tho land patents for the
President, have called upon tho few clerks
from Illinois and requested their services in
the Pennsylvania club room to assist in the
attempt to overthrow Judge Douglas and the
Democrats in Congress from Illinois. The
clerks are given to understand that their
places will depend upon their compliance. A
list OF the persons holding Office from Illinois
has been called for. What frightful con-
dition OF things! A political banditti, head
cd by a miserable sycophant and toady, like
ex- Reverend Jones, rushing upon a few
clerks. and demanding Of them to unite in
cutting down the gallant Douglas and his
noble friends, by defeating the regular Dem
ocratic nominations in Illinois. What rem
ders this outrage more infamous is the fact
that these Illinois clerks have not been called
upon to help Judge Douglas and his friends,
but they are not permitted to be neutral.
They are to be seized by the press gangs OF
Lccomptonism. and compelled to draw their
swords upon their own representatives and
the noble champion OF popular sovereignty

the correctness of this statement.

TIE GIoRaIA YAzoo LAND CAsy.-As the
validity of Legislative acts obtained by bril-
berry and corruption is question thas is like
ly to arise in several of the States, the history
Of the old Yaxoo land swindle and the decis-
ion of tho United States Supreme Court IN
the case, becomes interesting. Sixty years
ago, the entire Legislature Of Georgia was
bribed to grant to- company OF land spccu-
lators q good portion ofwhas is COW Che State
of Mississippi, for mere nominal considera-
ton. The mem oers OF the Legislature re-
ceived thossand acres OF land scrip each,
and . portion of stock in the company. The
matter became known. and the people met
at Milledgevills, the scat of Government,
and burnt the journal and yecords of the Leg
isls,ure on the public green. The act was
repealed the following year, aud tho question
arose before the Supreme Court of the United
States, whether the purchases under the
grant Of the Legislature were valid. The
Supreme Court decided, notwithstanding the
bribery, the contracts were valid, and they
were sustained. The people Of this State will
find that the bank charter will be fully sus-
tanned, aud If the canal company can by tho
collision with the members OF the Legisla-
ture sell the canal to tho State, the Courts
will sustain tho contract.
