The Rerenue onestion

The Committee of Ways and Means have been call
ed to meet on Tuesday, and it is expected that the
various propositions concerning the revenue will be
submitted. So far as is now known no maj rity re-
port can be presented from the Committee
Messre. Letcher, Crawford and Dowdell, opposed
any change in the Tariff. Mr.. Phillips has scheme
of his own. Mr.. Maclays position is uncertain
Messrs. Morrill,, Howard and Davis are unanimous>
ly in favour of BILL the details of which have not
yet been divulged
If Mr.. Phelps the Chairman, prevails on Mr.
Maclay or Mr.. Phillips to agree upon his scheme, he
expects that the Republican members of the Commit
tee, from courtesy, will enable him to present it to
the House.
Mr. Montgomery has given notice to Mr.. Phelps,
on behalf of the Pennsylvania Democrats, that he
will resist the consideration of any more sppropri-
alton bile, until some scheme concerning the Tariff
is presented.

We have been permitted to make an extract from
a letter addressed by Hon. Joseph r. Chandler,
Minister Resident OF The United States at the Court
Of Naples, to professor Henry, of the Smithsonian
Institution, in which Mr. Chandler furnishes brief
account of the circumstances current at Naples at
the date Of the letter. December 10th, relative to
an expected eruption of Mount Vesuvius. He
says
&" At the present moment the people in this city
are in great excitement at the indications of a dam
gerous eruption from Mount Vesuvius. For long
time great masses Of lava have been issuing from
aperIures the side of the mountain, about half
way up, aud these aperturss have been sugmenting
in nuAber ami size rapidly only is there
apprebenssns of eruption, but serious fears arc
expressed that the sides of the mountain will
be so worn and perforated as TO be no longer able
to sustain the superior portion and people leav
ing the vicinity and coming into the city proper
Last night the mountain was truly grand The
hundreds of great fires the sides (red-hOt Laval
were terribly brilliant, while the vast volume Of
smoke that slowly from the crater above had its
sides Illuminated by the FIRE on the ianks and pre-
scented an appearance of Indescribable grandeur.
|, of course, am unable say whether these fears
are well-fOunded, but they are entertained by men
of science and experience here. To-day the people
of the city are cOnmemorating the first anniversary
of the awful earthquake of 1851 and they are all
going to church. We seek God when we can fud
no help IN man, and perhaps il is a part OF Gods
