happens than more than near two CEN
turics ago the bible was placed in the
public schools ofthc colonies by explicit
laws, and by those yet slnarting under
tie lash of the union of church and state
in the old country, and who watched
with most jealous eye every thing that
savored of such union. And from that
time to the present, the bible has been
used in some way in the schools of most
of the states of the Union. But in this
enlightened age the sharp sighted DIR.

the application of this sentence we con-
cur in its truthfulness. Just say that this
modern attempt of now protestant sects
to thrust the bible out of our national
schools is dangerous step and if per-
sisted in will in the end lead to civil and
religious wars, then we concur. The
advocacy Of the bible in our public
schools is ho new thing-no clamor of
sectareanism. 1t is maintaining one of
the time honored landmarks of our re-
publicanism. But the attempt to thrust
it out is new proposition and one
prompted solely by sectarianism. The
bible used in our schools for centuries
has wrought no evil to the vital inter-
ests of our republicansm but much
good. This attempt to thrust it out is
but the hand Of an enemy laying hold

any personal quarrel with the Chair, the
House is not the place to settle it.
Mr. Hughes--l know that, and say the
same to the Speaker.
This colloquy occasioned considerable
sensation. Suggestions were made by
Messrs. Hopkins, Howard, Richie and
the Speaker, with the view of relieving
the House from difficulty and reopcnng
the bill for amendment.
After further debate the vote BY which
the bill was re ected was reconsidered.
A motion to strike out the Austrian mis-
sion was disagreed to by II against %.
Motion TO strike out the mission to Swilz-
erland and Buenos Ayers were severally
negatived, and the mission to Persia was
stricken out.
Mr.. Washbune, CT ILL.,, moved to re-
consider the vote and to lay that motion
on the table, pending which, Mr.. Hugh
es said that he regretted having made
the remark to day which seemed discour-
teous to the Chair, and took pleasure in
making this statement.
The Speaker responded to Mr.. Hughes,
expressing himself exceedingly gratiiied
at the disclaimer.

Mr.. Gwin, however, made a motion
to reconsider the vote on the Pacific
Railroad Bill, and prefaced his motion
with few remarks, stating that his OBJ
ject was TO make the estima les advertised

and to inclule estimat fer a branch to
Oregon.
Mr.. Bell of Tenn, saidSa few words
to show that the bill is adequate as it
stands.
Mr.. Davis spoke in support Of Mr..
OWNS views.
Mr.. Stuart of Mich. moved to lay the
motion on the table, but the hour of |
O'Clock arriving, the vote thereon was
postponed until Monday.
The rest of the day will be occupied
with the local affairs ofthe city of Wash
ington.

The Tari II.

re-" The Democratic Senators held a
caucus, on the morning of the 29th ult.,
on the subject of the tariff. Mr.. Hunter
offered a resolution declaring it ineXpe-
dient to change the law at tie present
session. Mr.. Bigler presented substi-
tuc therefore, which declared that the
revenue being insufficient TO meet the
expenses Of the government, it is wise
and expcdient 10 increase the import du-
ties to meet the deficiency. Mr.. Bigler's
substitute was voted down, and Mr.. Hun
ter's motion adopted by large majori
ty. Mr. Slidell thereupon offered a res
olution, which was adopted, that il is TIE
duty of Congress to look rather to a re-
duction Of expenditures than to an in
crease of revenue. In the House, the
Committee of Ways and Means is hope
lessly divided upon this subject, and
have failed SO far, to perfect any plan of
action. Mcssrs. Letcher, Dowdell, and
Crawford, Democrats, are opposed to
any modification of the Tariff at present.
Mr.. Phelps of Missouri, and the chair
man of the committee, has plan of his
own, approved by Secretary Cobb, which
pla ces a specific duty of so cents per
gallon on brandies, wines &C., and in
creasing, very uniformly, tie present
al valorem duties. 1t likewise proposes
a loan of $50, 0OO, 900 10 redeem outstand
ing Treasury notes. Mr.. Phillips also
presented bill lin committee, which pro-
poses a loan of 521, 900, 900, and specific
duties upon iron, sugars, spices and
fruits, and an increase of duties upon
wool, and linen, cotton, and woollen
fabrics. Messrs. Morrill,, and Howard,
Republicans, and Davis, American, have
likewise bill before the committee, ma
king the duty upon quite a number OF
articles specific, and increasing the ad
ralorem duties upon others. IL is thought
tina; this bill will give sixty millions of
dollars of revenue, which, with some FIVE
or six millions moro of miscellaneous re-
ceipts, ought to be sufficient for the ex-
penses of the government, including the
payment of interest on the pub lie debt.
As less than a Majority Of the commit
tee cannot make formal report, and as
neither of these plans will be likely to
obtain the requisite sanction, it is proba-
bic that no bill will be reported from the
committee the present session. The
House may, however, permit these sew
eral plans to be brought in, by courtesy,
with a view of getting the subject before
them.
