The House usually transacts good deal oil
business on Mondays, but Mr.. Rogers Of New
Jersey contrived to get possession OF the floor
yesterday, and used mp the morning hour in
speech designed to show that the Government
ought to repudiate its contracts with the public
creditors. Mr.. Blaine, at the conclusion OF Mr..
Rogers's harangue, justly declared that the
New-Jersey member had abused and outraged
the patience of the House.

MR.. OWENS AS PETER PRoBIrY.

MR.. OWENS AS PETER PROBlTN.
Mr. Crayen's Chimney Corner was brought
out last evening at the Broadway Theater for the first
time this season. The play is the representative type
Of the domestic school of dramas and as such is thor
oughly well known TO habitual theater-goers. Its
power which Is by means slight consists in the Fl.
deity with which 1t illustrates the domestic life OF an
honest British tradesman and the pathos with which
il sets forth very sad and trying domestic experience
We need not however. enlarge upon its dramatic
qualities. Mr. Coudoeks remarkable personstion Of
Peter Probiy has been the Of introducing to
the New York stage and fixing it firmly in the pleasant
recollection Of this community aud il has further been
made memorable by Mr.. Davidge's performance-and
truly wonderful performance it was of old Solomon
Remembering these triumphs, and considering the
great popularity OF the play. We anticipated larger
audience than was gathered at the Broadway Theater
last evening to Mr. Owens in new part. Yet the
audience was good and il had be enthusiastic
Mr. Owens is not we think, as true and powerful and
impressive as Mr. Coudock in the character Of Peter
Probity; yet he plays the part with real pathos and
eynces capacity which we have never doubted that
he possessed-for much higher emotional efforts than
are possible in the character Of Scion Single. The
consequence Of continual repetition Of the latter part
appears indeed, in occasional mannerisms and infec.
tons Of voice. but to suppose that Mr. Owens is always
Scion Single Is great error of opinion and great
Injustice to the actor. His performance Of
Caleb Plammer. which may be witnessed at
this theater next Monday evening. furnishes
conclusive evidence Of this truth but very satisfactory
evidence can meanwhile, be obtained from his perform
ance OF Peter Proby HIS study of the British trades
man is accurate, and his sympathy with parental love-
and with all the sweet sentiments Of home is quick and
cordial and profound. Few SORROWS be more bitter
and desolate than that which brushes fathers heart
who feels that his son Is dishonest man. Mr.. Owens
expressed that sorrow with naturalness that touched
many hearts and brought tears TO many eyes. With
his method might occasionally quarrel; but as to
the emotional truhuness Of his conception Of the char
acter, there can, we think be no question. For this
reason therefore, and because the general influence Of
the drama is pleasant and grateful, we hope lie may
have large audiences for the rest of this week. The
mart OF Old Solomon last evening. filed by Mr..
Saye who took the character at short notice. owing
TO the sudden and severe illness Of Mr.. Tom Owens
and who acted II in very creditable manner. Mrs.

The entertainment closed with the old farce of The

A vote was taken yesterday in the House on
question relating to the Air Line Railroad
from Washington to New-York-a collateral
question, but indicating, we trust, the fixed
purpose of the majority to pass at proper time
proper bill. 1t was found necessary to add
two members to the Select Committee on this
subject, owing to the angular circumstance
that one member originally in favor of the road
had-as Mr.. Stevens phrased it" allowed his
views to be changed by the arguments made in
behalf of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company" To meet this change Of base on
the part of the member referred to, the Speaker
appointed Messrs Washburne Of Illinois and
Wilson of Iowa; so the measure is once more in

The Supreme Court Of the United States has
decided what are known as the Massachusetts
liquor cases. The laws Of that State prohibit
the sale Of liquor, while the liquor-sellers,
under the Internal Revenue laws Of the United
States, are required to take out license.
Being indicted under the State law and con-
victed for violation Of it, they went up to the
Supreme Court on the plea that a license for the
United States was constructive permission to
sell, and paramount TO the State Prohibitory
law. The point was made and oyerruled in
the State courts, and the supreme tribunal Of
the United States row aiIrms the Massachu-
sets decision. The prospect of conflict be-
tween Federal and State authorities on which
the liquor-dealers had counted, seems to have
disappeared wholly, and the State is left free TO
enforce its own statutes.

If we rightly understand what was done in
the Assembly of our State on Saturday, that
body disagreed with the report of its Railroad
Committee which favored Horse Railroad in
Broadway, and voted in favor Of an Elevated
Railway instead. If this be so, then the As
sembly came to a very wise and benefcent con-
clusion. We ought to have at least one Elevated
Railway, and we hope an Underground or Sunk
en- Railway will also be authorized; but as to
Street Railways run by horsepower, we have
already all we can endure. -Four, for example,
run by our door; and they pretty nearly monop'

all who drive vehicles through that street. And
so it is elsewhere.
If, now, the Legislature will give US an
Elevated and Gf it can be without detrment
to our Croton Water pipes, as we think it may,
an Underground or Sunken Road, we can get
up town and down in half the time now re-
quired, and without injury to street travel.
And this is what the public needs and wants
no, more Horse Roads, and especially none in
Broadway.

The House yesterday passed the new Postal
bill, with very important amendments. The
section authorizing the Postmaster-General TO
sell stamped envelope at the value OF the
stamps impressed thereon was struck out-a
most just settlement Of that question. Sections
authorizing the PostmasterGeneral TO convey
the foreign mails by sailing vessels, and to re-
peal existing laws for the publication Of lists Of
letters uncalled for, were also struck out. Sew
eral other Objectionable sections met the same
fate; and the bill as passed has liberaifeatures
that are a decided improvement on the niggard-
" policy of the old law. Prepaid letters are by
this bill to be forwarded from one Office to an
other, and dead letters to be returned without
charge; and money orders may be issued for
any sum not exceeding S50-instead Of $50 as
now.
