The Attempt 10 Instruct Our Senator's in
the Brigh Case.

An error occurred u our report OF the pro-
ceedings of the house of Thursday last in al
lribu.ing to Mr.. Cessna the notion TO proceed
10 the consideration of the resolutions instruct
ing the Senators from this State 10 vote ior the
expulsion OF Jesse D. Bright. MIR. Cessna re-
corded his vote With the majority against ta'
king up the resolution.
The more we reflect upon the passage of sim
liar resolutions BY the Senate, the more con-
frmed are we in the conviction that the act
was gross outrage-and this with out refer
ence to the proprlety or i;npropriety oi Mf'
Brights expulsion from the United States Sem
ate. This is question exclusively for lhe
body OF which Mr. Bright is a member-a ques'
ton which il alone is competent to decide ia
view of all the facts and circumstances OF The
case The Legislature OF Pennsylvania has no
moral or constitutional light 10 meddie in the
matter, or attempt to Influence the decision one
way or the other. The Constitution declares
that the House shall be the Judge Of The quail
fcalions of its own members for disorderly be-
IavIor, and with the concurrence OF two thirds
expel member. It is under the authority con-
ierred by this section that the U. ). Senate Is
acting in The proceedings against Mr.. Bright
The Constitution assumes :hat each branch
of Congress is the proper guardian of lis own
purity aud honor. 1t is great stretch OF ian
pertinence for members OF the Legislature te
undertake TO control the action OF Senator'S on
question that belongs exclusively to the latter
Patriot ard Union.

The Tax Bill.
j.. H. l..

II was understood that the tax bill is now be-
ing perfected in It's details by the Committee OF
Ways and Means. 1t proposes moderate
rate oftaxation upon most OF the articles OF
necessary consumption, higher rates on distil-
ed liquors and other articles of luxury; egacies
and probates, on passengers, by railroads and
other conye yances, newspapers andtelegraphIc
messages. From these sources, taken in con-
neciion with the tariff on imports,lt is conf
drnlY expected after the most careful investl-
gatioa, that the Government will derive
revenue Of at least ST. 100000. This tax
will give to the United States bonds sure
specie paying security. The Committee have
also considered the subject of national banking
law, which will require the deposit OF United
States stock as security for the Bank notes that
are circulated as currency.

and the ship-of, war Constitution is now fitting

raj national ships are lying io port for want of

Foote is in want of about 1000 for service in
the Western waters. The New England Esh

Municipal Election in Wheeling, Va
Triumph of The Conservatives.
WHEELING. Va. Jan. 27 1856:

WHEELlNG, Va, Jan. 81, 1862.
The municipal election at Wheeling, was
held on Monday last. A regular Union ticket
had been nominated by the Union clubs, which
was defeated, as 10 the important officers Of
Mayor, City Sergeant and Treasurer, by unu-
sualiy large majoriies; A. j. Sweeney receiv-
ing 95l votes for Mayor, and J. w. Panlon
(Union) receiving 663 votes. Smith McDon-
aid, for City Sergeant, had majority OF 3S4
votes over John Bishop (Union,) aod R. w.
Harding a majority Of All votes over James
Mcconnell the Union nominee for Treasurer.
The result OF this election seems 10 be pregnant
OF meaning, as indicative OF the political sen'i-
menls of the city Of Wheeling in this crisis.

The Bedford Contested Seat.

The committee To whom was referred ihe
matter Of Tie contested seat between Mr.. Cess
ma and Mr. Householder, in the Bedford and
Somerset legislative district, BY vote OF SIX TO
nine, reported in favor OF Mr.. Cessna, and week
before last he was sworn in. The ground OF
the. contest was the fact that the Constitution
guaranteed TO each County ia existence al the
time of its formation and amendment, separ-
ate representation, and that Bedford County
being in existence al that time, could not be
united in legislative district, against her will
with any other County, and thus be deprived of
her representation by.any legislative p' ovisop.
Convinced ofthe justice of his cause, Mr. Cessna
prepared an elaborate, powe, ful aud unanswera-
bic argument, and submitted il TO the House of
Representatives; and although some of the
committee who tried the case did not sign tie
majority report, they were yet unwilling 10
fbring in a report Of their own, saying they
had not yet fully made up their minds All
the members seem now TO admit the justice
ard fairness of Mr.. Cessna's position while
the press Of the State generally endorse it.

hearts that throo in anxious solicitude at his
prvations.
Then, too, these feasts contrast SO beautifully
with the usual crackers and bacon. Blu, do not
infer, for an instant, that we wish to enter a
complaint against our rations, not by any means;
it is not that we love our crackers and bacon
the less, but because we love turkeys, &c.,
more.
Be tins as it may, we as a company, shall
ever look back on the citlzeGs OF Coleraln,
with the happiest "reminiscences.
Perhaps the only return we will be able
to make for all these tavors, is, TO do our duty
sludlously in the service of cur country, which
we shall certainly endeayor TO do.

England will only afford France moral support.
