A concurrent resolution, directing tie
Commissioners of the Northern State Prison
to give the architect employed to examine
the location, contracts specifications, plans,
&e., of that institution, free access to. all the
papers and documents in their possession,
ELECTED a lengthy discussion. 1t was con-

integrity of the commissioners and officers
of the Prison, and that the architect should
not be empowered to examine what might
be private property. On the other hand it
was urged that if there was nothing wrong
in the affairs connected with the prison, the
resolutions would do no harm and offended
no one. They had been Offered on infor-
nation received from the architect that he
had been denied access to papers that were
essential to the investigation he was employ
ed to make. The resolutions were passed
by nearly strictly party yote-tie Repub-
licans voting in the affirmative, and most of
the Democrats in the negative.
The Senate changed its hours of meeting
and adjourning SO as to have but one ses-

important part of the business, at the last
end of the calendar. This is good regu-
lation to save time and expedite work. - a.

The War for the Union.

The Tribnne says -" IF the Govern
ment has moved slowly--too slowly, it has
seemed to most of us-it has aimed to move
surely, and so as to obviate all necessity for
taking single backward step. And, though
the traitors chose their own time for begin
ming this struggle, and had several months
start, with a virtual possession of the Union
Cabinet for weeks, they do not this hour oc-
cupy foot Of ground outside of the States
they control, save a fow square milos north
of and around Iarper's Ferry, while the flag
of the Union waves haughtily over Alexan-
Fortress Monroe. preparatory to an advance
at all points against the shrinking cohorts of
Secession. Not half our accepted Volunteers
have yet left the depots oil their several regf-
ments, yet the rebellion is already hemmed in
both by land and sea and the braggarts who
bat yesterday were rushing Northward to
seize Washington and Cairo are now trcmu-
lously awaiting attacks on Richmond and
Memphis. And while brigades ofthe citizens
of our peaceful, trading, fabricating North
are vainly begging for admission iuto the ar
mics of the Union, the rebel forces are large
ly made up Of Union men compelled to choose
between donning the rebel uniform and being
turned over to be insulted, tarred, beaten,
manned and hung, by the lower strata of
rebel rufianism-Union men who are in the
ranks of the traitors only because they must
otherwise have ceased to live They accept
every volunteer aud draft or impress thousands
beside; aoe cannot as yet receive nearly all
who eagerly flock to our standards, asking
only the privilege Of being led against the
foes of the Union. Such are the aspects pre-
sented in the seventh week of the struggle
do they not clearly foreshadow its final result ?

The GATHERING SToRM.-Henry W. Beecher
says &c Every morning, when I have aroused,
for week or zen days past, have rushed down
expecting to hear the tocsin cf the battle. But
as some lurid days that have thunders i'll them
will not storm, but hold themselves aloof, and
gather copper color in the sky, because the bolt
is to fall with more terrific violence; so it seems
to me that in the impressive silence which pre-
walls the storm of battle is only collecting, and
collecting, because the great conflict is coming
ere long like Gods thunder-crack When it
does come have not not the least doubt as to
which side will triumph. 1 foresee the victory.
rejoice in it, in anticipation not because it is
to be on our side, but because it has pleased God
in his infinite mercy, to make liberty our side ;
not because We are North and they are South
but because we have civilization and they have
barbarlsm, because we stand on the principle of
equity and liberty and they stand on the princi-
pie of slavery and injustice. 1t will be moral
victory more than a military victory.
May God speed the day, give the victory,
crown it with peace, restore unity, and make 1T
more compact and enduring because freed from
contamination, this poison, in our intestine sys-
tenn.
