The Washington correspondents of

Investigation Committee have substan-
tally agreed upon the bill of Mr.. Tay-
Tor. to establish a Government Printing
=Oficc, uader q Commissioner and the
Secretary of the Interior. The Com
mittee will probably report mex week.
The Tariff Investigating Committee
will also probably report next week. It
is said Governor Banks has had an in
terview with the chairman, Mr.. Stanton5
touching the development before the
Committee.
The bill of Mr.. Douglas creating an
additional Judicial District in New
Mexico, makes the submission of the
Constitution to the people hereafter re-
quisite for admission In all the terrific
ries of the United States except Utah,
aud dispenses altogether with an ena-
bling act.

WASHINGTON, March IL.
Nearly all the members who, after the
House adjourned, fingered in the Hall
conversipg in groups or in their seats,
were startled by q fight between Mr..
Craig, of North Carolina, and Mr.
Helper, author of a bonk entitled ssThe
Impending Crisis and formerly from
the same State. They had just before
been angrily engaged in conversation,
Crowds of members and others rushed
in and separated the combatants while
they were engaged in dealing heavy
blows. Mr.. Helper was temporarily
taken in charge by the sergeant-at, arms
aud witnesses of the proceedings, were
much frightened.

THE BLACK REPUBLICANS
I FOR SLAv Try
Gross and Shameless Inconsistency !

When the Black Republicans in Con-
gress voted for Dunn's Bill legaizing
Slavery in Ka7,sas, we were prepar-
ed to see them doing anything equally
ineonsistent.
True to their character for double
dealing and hypocrisy, we now find the
Republicans In Congress-, to a mar, 90
ing { o bring Kansas into the Union
as a Stare Stdtei The record of their
votes staud against them, and it will be
useless for them to attempt to explain
it awayl
We hope to hear no more from these
baldfaced hypocrites in regard to Lee
compton and Slavery. They should
hide their faces in shame, cover them
selves with sackololhsand ashes, and go
into a state of rotiracy for the space OF
twelve months, and seek forgiveness for
their manifold sinsl-Mt Vernon Ban

Gen. 10. Lane on Kansas
WAsH1NcroN. March 81

W u1dECn &t
In the House this afternoon, Mr..
LANE, of Oregon. addressed the commit
tee for the purpose Of setting himself
right before his constituents and the
country in regard to Oregon affairs.-
He referred to the constitution of Ore
con and her application for admission
into the Union, and said he did not wish
the Oregon bill nor the Minnesota bill
to be appended to that for the admission
of Kansas; he preferred that each ap-
~plication should stand upon its own mer-
its. He commended that Kansas should
be admitted, having pissed through all
the requisite forms emitting her to ad.
mission, in a satisfactory manner. The
bill was opposed because the opposition
had voted for the Topeka constitution.
The northern democrats who opposed
the measure opposed it on the same
ground, in effect.
Mr.. ENGLISH inquired whether the
gentleman meant to say that he (Mr.
E.) would net vote to admit q slave
State.
Mr.. LANE. replied that ho intended
to say that Ne effect was precisely the
same. Let him profess what he might,
the effect of his vote on this measure
was the same as if he had determined
never to vote for another slave State
Every member from the South was
ready to pote for the admission of Miu-
~nesota and Oregon without slavery
They lived up to the doctrine that the
people have a right to form their own
constitution, and while they walked up
to that honorable position, they found
their friends from the North acted with
that party which had very frequently
proclaimed that they would not vote for
the admission Of a slave State if every
man, woman, and child asked it.
Mr.. SMITH, of Illinois, asked the gen.
tleman to point out a single anti-Le.
compton democrat who did not profess
to be as ready to admit Kansas with as
without slavery. If he knew such a
man he would like him to name him.
Mr.. LANE replied that they all pro-
fess to be ready to do it, but they would
not do it. Kansas was here her con-
s~titution was legal, and he repeated that
they had no business to go beaiDd the
record. He had no hesitation in saying
that uine.tepthszo CT those who, in this
House, voted anti Lecompton, were an.
ti-Slavery men, and yet his friends from
the North said they we're ready to vote
for the admission of a slave State, but
acted with a party who openly ayowed
their opposition to it. 2.

The Song of the Sewing Machine.
BY =. A. J.

The following beautiful lines are from the
pen of a gifted lady in Cincinnati, written
in q moment of inspiration, after having used
one of GROVER d BAKERS celebrated sewing
machines, in executing her family sewing,
and published in the Cincinnati Enquirer"
The new household domestic sings a pleasant
song:
I come from the realm of thought, ] come:
OIL give me a welcome in every home;
For | bring in my trail a stranger-guest-
A friend to the weary-"Domestic Rest J"
And my iron hand has a gift for all
Who summon my aid in the Spring and Fall.
I come, the "Child of Genius" 1 come;
And 10 /! what a treasure l bring to some.
To the weary housewife an hour from care
An "hour for improvement" for thought, for
prayer;
An "hour for reposc"-I've thought it no
To pluck SUCH rEArEHrRs from the wings of
Time.
I come, with a cheerful song 1 come.
And I hope ere long through the world to
roam
Meath the sun of the Tropics III lift my
wing:
In the icy halls of the North I'll sing;
And the trumpet of Fame, from main to main
The triumph shall sound of my useful reign.

Stabbing Afary-Two Hundred Dol.
lars Stolen.

90 Saturday night of last week a
stabbing ARRAY, followed by a robbery,
occurred at the Cutting House, near
the Railroad Junction, under the follow
ing circumstances: It appears that a
man from Kansas by the name of Sill,
who was stopping over night got into a
difficulty with a German Doctor of this
city about a woman, which resulted in
the Doctors drawing knife and stab
bling Sill in the breast, inhicting q very
serious wound. Parties than interfered
and an officer was sent for to arrest the
Doctor. Upon this demonstration be-
ing made the Doctor got frightened,
and proposed to comhromise the matter
by paying Sill SIS and healing his
wounds for nothing. This proposition
was finally accepted, and the Doctor re.
moved his patient to his room, dressed
his wounds and put him to sleep. Next
morning, when !Sill awoke, he found his
money, some 5000, missing, and, upon
inquiry. he also learned that his friend,
the Doctor, had left for the West on the
night train. Sill thereupon had a warrant
issued, and we learn, succeeded in pro.
curing the arrest of the fugitive escula.
plus at Ft. Wayne. So stands the case
at present Mansfield Herald.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN PIcKAwAV
-CoUNry.-An unusual and fatal acci-
don't occurred on Monday last al a saw
mill on the premises of Mr.. Rector, near
Willimsport, Pickaway county, O., by
which Frand Hurst, aged twenty-three
years, lost his life. The deceased had
charge of the mill, aud was instrueting
a new hand in the manner of doing his
work. A log had just been placed on
the carriage aud run through once. As
the carriage was returning he jumped
upon the log, and through inadvertence
was caught by the saw.
The saw is a circular one, about five
feet in diameter, and was running at a
high speed. It struck the unfortunate
young man just above the knee, and
caused him to fall with his body on its
edge. A single revolution of, the saw
split the leg from the knee to the body,
and almost severed the body from the
hip to the opposite shoulder. A small
piece of the skin on the back and q por-
ton of the back bone alone held the mu-
tilated remains Chiuicothe
AdU.

AMopEL EDrToRIAL.-John C. Riyes,
editor and proprietor of the Washing.
ton Globe, has the following editorial
on the Kansas imbroglio. We COM
mend it fer its brevity and good sense;
CATER all, what is Kansas to US, or
we to Kansas T? Its admission under the
Lecompton Constitution will make no
more slaves, and it's rejection will make
no less freemen. That is our opinion,
in short, written on the eve of our start
ing ont to plant some grape-vines; and
if we should elaborate il, all we could
say conscientiously would be of the same
sort. The vital question is, the integ-
rity of the Union. The Federal In
ion. it must be preserved"
