February 18th.

The Senate has been in committee of
the whole house during all of yesterday
and to-day, having under consideration
the Railroad question" or, the PROPOSE
ton contained in bill now before the
Senate, that the roAd-beds, rolling stock
machine-shops, and all other property of
Railroad Companies, within the State Of
Iowa shall be subject to taxation the same
as the property of individuals. This is
great question, and one worthy of the
most careful consideration, and the Sen
ste evinces wisdom in giving the subject
thorough and ample discussion.
In the House, little has been done to-
day except the consideration Of a resolu-
ton instructing our delegates in Congress
10 use their influence to secure the abo
lition and prohibition of slavery. by Con-
stitutional enactment, throughout the
United States. Mr.. RICHARDS, of Dubuque
the champion of Copperheadism in the
House, is speaking while write. He is
fluent, and graceful speaker, ispolished
and gsntlemanly in his manners, aid
consequently the more capable of carry
ing out the evil designs of his party
competent to do more harm to the cause
Of the country than regiment OF his
whisky soaked constituents. He began
his remarks this afternoon by declaring
that he was D Demccrat,--had always been
and gloried in it-that his chief glory in
the present was the review Of the bright
record of that party in the past! The
bright record of the Democracy! The
record of the murder of LoVejoy the
record of the assault upon Sumner IN
the Senate Chamber of the United States;
the record" of the transactions Of every
slave mart in the States of the South for
seventy five years; the record OF the
