toDs On Monday this patriarch OF Freedom lee
tured before densely crowded audience on the
scenes be had witnessed in Congressional life. He
spOke without notes, and opened by referring to
the unfouDded rumor of his beng prlvy to Browns
designs. His address Was not Of political or
pariIzan character, but was almost exclusively
Historical, with side touches of some of the dis
tneui.bed and fiery spirits he had encountered in
liz long career. He described in language which
Iiyetted the attention of the audience the memoir
able scene when John Quincy Adams presented tue
Massachusetts petition for a dissolution OF the
Union; the demand TO have 1t burned at once 10
The presence of the House, the wild clanor
and furious excitement Of the Southern

that the petition be referred to a COMMITTEES,
with instructions TO report adversely to the
prayer. Then came a proposition t. expel
Mr.. Adams, and next day an arrangement by a

OF Ibis memorable contest for the right OF petition
was extremely graphic. He poured forth for over |
an hour and half volume of information entirely

HIM on " hose minds il will make wholesome and

strobe in his kcturo. He said that on one occasion
he bad declared that if the South should be ravaged
by ipsuIrection, he would laugh at their calamity
"aLd mock when their fear coneth;" but he was
now free to say that such words we're wholly foreign
TO his feelIDgs-he would belle bis own n.ture II he

The agitation Of the Sunday car question ia not
yet over, either here or in Pittsburgh Alta meeting
Of stocA holders Of one Of our companies the motion
70 run the cars Oh Sunday was voted down unsn-
imoasly. But At Pittsburgh the cars had been run
OIL that day without mOlestatiOn, until they were
sIopped here by tho action Of the Court. There
apOl ia that city they ceased to run, but the COM
paOos Insisted that all other Sunday travel should
ne u pped al.o, and caused the arrest of two car
risge 0nvers, one Of whom, employed by Chlef
Justice Lowry, had conveyed the latter to church,
placed his horses at livery stable aud might also
kave gone to church had be desired to do so. This
arrest was made under the law OF 1874, which pro
Aibiis all worldly employment on Sunday, to
WI ch the act OF 1855 added . peoalty OF S95-
works OF necessity and charity being excepted The
Judges coachmau and he other offender were both
fined rs above. The former paid up, but the latter
will take his case t. the Supreme Court. This
fDe was inflicted by the Mayor of Pittsburg His
deci,ion settles the point that all who able to
walk 10 church have right to their carriages
20 get there. In addition TO this hostile action, It
was also proposed to compet the Pittsburg Telegraph
Offices TO cease sending messages on Sunday But
the coming Legislature will proosbly lutte this
complicated kn.t by either repeating the law or
modifying il TO suit the new order OF things; for,
~ il il interpreted, there is no saying 70 what
extremties it may be pushed. Sections who toll
their copgrt cations TO church, hacks which convey
passengers from railway stations to their hotels,
britge collectors, lsmplighters, and fifty other
kinds of workers, must all cease their usual Occu-
pAtons if thelaw be literally complied with.
