There are row before Congress two projects for
establishing steam communication with Brazil.
One embraced in the bill of Mr.. FIorerce. for ocean
mail routes. provides for line Of steamers from
Philadelphia via Savannah, ST Thomas ALA Bar-
BADGES to Para ct the mouth of the Amazon.
The other project contemplates line OF steamers
iIou this city vi, NtIfolk, st. Thomas, Barbados
10 Pe,nSmbuco Bahia, and thence 70 Rio. 1t my
be Observed, that between Para ard Rio there is
already communication BY steam maintained by
Brazilian companies.
No doubt, an American line of steamers
would he a convenience TO our merchants en-
gsped in trade with Brazil, whose letters are now
generally sent and received via France and En-
gland. But Il would hardly be safe to assume, as
some of their advocates do, that the establishment
Of these or halt a.dozen other lines of steamers to
Brazil would or could operate to transfer the
trade of that country from Europe TO us. If
France and England have each two lines of steam
ers to Brazil if Belgium, Hamburg Portugal, and
even Sardinia also, have their lines, while the
United States have DOne, this, we apprehend, is rot
from want of energy on the part of our merchants,
or for lack of disposition on their part to mOnopO-
lie the trade of Brazil had that been possible, but
because as things stand at present, our share 10
that trade is necessarily limited especially in that
sort Of goods which will bear the cost Of
steam transportation. The imports into Brazil
which the European lines Of steam-packets are
employed TO convey, are cloths and manufac-
tured goods. of various sorts, such as we
ourselves import from Europe for our own coz
sumption, with Which, of course the manufactur-
ers and merchants of Europe can supply Brazil
directly at cheaper rate than we could by any
roundabout conveyance. 1t would hardly pay to
ssnd first to New-York Euro jean manufactures des
tined for consumption in Brazil. OurexpOr.s from
Brazil. chiefly coffee, far exceed our imports
thither, because We cannot supply the sort of I'M
ports which Brazil wants, nor would the establish
meDt of dozen lines of steamers make any differ
cree in this respect. If we propose to monoplize
the trsde of Brazil or to come in even for large
share o. it, there is much more certain way Of
recocbiDg that end than by maintaining out of the
public treasury lines of ocean steamers which can.
not support themselves. Let Congress revise the
tariff so as to enable our manufacturers to cOlnpste
with those of Europe for the supple Of our own
domestic market. Before supplying foreign ma.
tions with manufactured goods, we must first sup
ply ourselves. We may talk as grandiloquently as
We please about our right to control the CONNER
cisl as we'll as the political interests of the New
World, but, so long as we import Our own manu-
features and pay for them in raw produce, we can
not expect to compete with Europe for the trade
Of other nations in the predicame at with our
.elyes.

The new Street Commissioner appointed bis
heads of bureaus yesterday Some Of the Sc
lectons are very good, and others the re-
verse. OF about dozen names before us, all are
regular Tammapy Hall Democrats, except one, and
four are members of the Sweeney General Com
mittee. Mr.. Cooper evidently thinks it necessary
to apologize for not giving everything to his party
since it is given out that the appontee who is not
a Democrat will only fill the place temporarily to
get the bureau in working order. But partisan
affinity is of no consequence, if the men are
honest and capable. The only fact that looks
badly liz, that many of them are professional
politicians, ofIice-seekers by long habit, and old
acquaiDtances at the City Treasury. What
ever the result of Mayor Tlemann's admin
istration may be, the only credit or blame
which can be justly laid to the $4,000 voters who
cast their ballots for bin, will be the supple fact
that they elected him. Their share 10 his good or
bad deeds ends with the closing of the polls. With
a msgnsDDity as rare as mum ipal honesty, he
has bestowed whatever of honor or enolument was
at bis command upon members of tle patty which
did it's utmost to defeat him. To do good to those
who despiteiully use you s Christian recon-
nendation; but 90 reward your enemies and punish
"your friends" is tetch of virtue as novel as it
IS generous.

The obseryant reader Of our foreign Intelligence
will remember the statement Of the arrest, few
weeks since, 10 England, of Rev. Ssml. Smith
and his wife, charged with an assault, with intent
to Bill, upon one John Leecb, on lonely common,
and on dark aud stormy night. The case was
wrapped my stery, since robbery clearly the
intention of the assalants as Mr. Leech it was in
tmated, had been enticed to claudestine meeting
10y Mrs. Smith, and as her purpose, whatever it
might be, was evidently known TO and shared in by
Der husband. The trial of the Smiths took place
at Gloucester the 9th inst, and the mystery is
oiled away like cloud, but revealing behind it
tale of crime and sorrow, as remarkable, per.
haps, in its attending circumstances, as was ever
uDfolded in a court of justice.
The Rev. Samuel Smith, it seems, is by position
and education gentleman, aud clergyman of the
Estsblirhed Church. HIS father was the Vicar of
Soobury, who, burdened with large family, was
unable TO DO much more fox his SOL than pIt hun
in the way of gaming thorough educlton. This
he received at Cambridge, wnere he Obtained
Fellowship, and graduated ten years ago as senior
optme. While he was in Cole e, be met by chance
young girl ofabous sixteen years Of age, aservant
in the establishment of London linen draoer.
Attracted solely, probably, BY tie budding beauty
Of one who from birth and education could have little
else in common with those in the circle 10 which
be moved, he fell in love with her, and male an
offer of marriage, to take place so soon as bis cir
cumstances would permit He was accepted; but in
the mean time returned to Cambridge to finish bis
cole gate course, and Sarah Mills, the y,ung
uomsp, left bee .ce Of service and went into
Lodgings in Tcttenhsm court-roao.
In the employ of these same linen Diapers was
John Leecb, light porter. Between bin and toe
Young girl an Intimacy sprung up, which continued
after SIZE hSd left her place Of service. While lis.
pg in Tottenhsm. court-rosd, he was in the hsbi.
~ waiting her. and on one of these occasions, when

Houses of Congress yesterday: the Senate by 30 to

the Senate, Mr.. Push Of course voted for the Jug
Gle, as he would have done for the original Lecomp-
ton but for express Instructions from Il Democratic
Legislature; he voted for this he had argued and
sehemed for the other. Our two New-York anti
Lecompton Democrats HORACE F. CLARK and
JOHN b. hAsKIS-were true and hearty to the
last. A grateful People observes aud will &C.
knowledge their fidelity.
The character OF the English continuance which
Congress has stopped to ratiy ia established BY one
prominent fact: In the debate which preceded its

opposed it because it submitted the Lecompton
Constitution to the People of Kansas for ratiiica

In Congress Yesterday the report of the Confer
encc Committee upon the Kansas question was
adopted and the English bill passed Ia the
House Mr. Horace +. Clark opened the session
with few remarks against the measure, illness
rendering him unable to give his reasons at length
Two or three Southern members made explanatory
statements. Mr.. Cox was called to account by
Messrs Campbell and Haskin for his change of front
on the Kansas question: and all animated debate en-
sued, which was somewhat personal as between Mr..
Hasbln and Mr. Cox. TIE difficulty was, however,
amicabIy adjusted before adjournment On the
previous question, which was mo7ed by Mr.. Bon
ham of South Carolina the vote stood ll2 Yeas to
los Nays. The usual motion to reconlder and t.
lay that motion on the table, made by Mr.. English,
prevailed by ll3 Yeas to 100 Nays. The House
then adjourned TO Monday.
In the SENATE Mr.. Broderick spoke against the
English bill, which be considered more objection
able than 'LecOmp.on pure aud simple Mr.
Doottle said few words concerning the pOpula-
ZION of Kansas, in reply to Mr.. Pugh, who rejoined
Nj Seward followed. While he was speaking, the
announcement that the bill had passed the House
was made He remarked that it was of slight con-
sequence whether this the first victory or the
las. defeat of the Free States. At the close of his
remarks the bill was passed-leas 80, Nays %.
The Senate then, on motion of Mr.. Hunter, voted
TO recede from its amendments to the Deficiency
bill, as passed by the House, the Conference Com
mittee having reported that the two Houses were
unable TO agree.
