In the Senate, yesterday, petition from I'M
State Department clerks for increase pay wa
presented and referred. Memorials were pre-
sented asking lands for educational purposes
/ in the Rebel States and from the st. Loui
Chamber of Commerce, asking an approprla
ton to improve the Mississippi. The House
resolution concerning the Paris Exposition wa'
reported and laid over. Mr.. Sumner offered q
resolution directing the Judiciary Committee
to INQUIRE what further legislation is needed t.
prevent kidnapping of freedmen and the re-
newal of the slavctradc. II appeared in de-
bate that these Oflenses are actually commit
ting, and that Federal officers are among the
guilty The resolution was adopted. bill To
annex two counties to West Virginia was called
up and postponed; and after brief Executive
session, the Senate adjourned.
In the House, the Speaker announced the fol-
lowing Select Committee Oh the Military Rail
road from Washington to Ncw-York: MIR.
Stevens of Pennsylvania; Mr.. Garfield Of Ohio;
Mr.. Francis Thomas OF Maryland; Mr. Bran.
degee of Connecticut; Mr. Starr of New jersey
Mr.. Grnnell of Iowa, and Mr.. Radlord of New
York.
Mr.. Washburn brought up the subject of a
railroad bill recently passed, which Mr.. Bald
win Of Massachusetts, had asserted. i'll letter
to The HOrooster Spy, was intended to relieve
the Illinois Central from the discharge Of its
just obligations to the Government. Mr..
Washburn denied the allegation. Mr..
Baldwin insisted that such was the eff.
feet of the bill. After long debate
it was agreed that the House ask the Senate to
return the bill as having been passed under a
misapprehension. Resolutions were introduced
concerning the conversion Of Arlington Heights
into a soldiers home, and in relation to recon-
structiOn, the former Of which was adopted,
and the latter referred to the Special Com.
mittee.
Mr. voorhees, (Dem.) called up his resolu.
tions ndorsng the President and his policy
and defended them in a long speech. Mr. Bng-
ham of Ohio replied, and offered the following
as a substitute for Mr. Voorhees, resolutions:
Resolrsd. That this House have abiding confidence
in the President that in the future IN the past hc
will cooperate with Congress IN restoring TO equal
poson and rights with the other States IN the Union
all the States lately in insurrecton.
Mr.. Stevens suggested that this had better 60
to the Committee on Reconstruction, to which
Mr.. Bingham assentcd. The previous question
was moved, and the House under its operation
voted to send both Mr.. Voorhees, resolution
and Mr.. Bingham's to Mr. Steycns's Commit

JOKE /:

delicious volume might be compiled Of thu
single poems and Of the single jokes by noted
as well as by obscure persons. Some of tina
finest ballads in the language were written bv
men aid women who sang but once in all their
lives. SO of jokes Take Wordsworth for ex.
ample, whose solitary jest set a table Of wits in
roar that has been echoed and reechOeI
many time on both sides of tho Atlantic.

all the company. 81 was asked by country

Ny good friend answered, 1 did not even
know that you had q wife," This brought
down the circle.
1t will be seen by our telegraphic dispatches
that Garrett Davis, the Senator from Kentucky.
has been emuating Wordsworth. He has made
"a COAX" on the Yankees. Prepare to roar, ye
unconstructed; and be not sparing Of your but
tons, ye pardoned Rebels. Mr.. Sumner moved
that the Committee on the Judiciary be directed
to inquire if any further legislation is needed to
prevent the kidnapping of freedmen, and showed
that some of our cOlored citizens had been taken
to Cuba and sold. WhereupOn, says the tcc-
graph, "Mr. Davis rose and said he had no
doubt that the Yankees were endeayOring to.
reopen the slave-trade. He knew they would
do so if they thought they could make any
money out of it. lie was in favor of the resolu
tion."
Isn't that exquisite! The old man garrulous

obtaining reputation, not Ike Jack Bmsby,
for "solid chunks of WISDOM" but for leagues
and square acres of it, Us the heavy laden
Congressional Globe can teStify-such wisdom a.
Kentucky delights in-of the sprcsd-owl variety
mainly. But now his fame as a funny man, il
fixed forever, if he will only forever after hold
his peace. There is but one parallel in our
history to this fine stroke OF humOr,
and for it also we are indebted to the same
State which emitted the jovial Garrett. Ii
was the declaration ofa Congressman at the last
session, that it did not follow, because Slavery
was abolished everywhere else, that 1t would
not be maintained in Kentucky. Evidently, the
Coming Funny Man will be furnished to seri-
ous world by the State which gave birth to Old
Bourbon. Prentice, the Man Of q Million Puns,
and DAVIS, the Lone Joker, are but Shadows

TIKI INTEREST OF LABOBERs
IN PROTECTION.

The letter of Mr.. ID. j. Morrell-a practical
Iron.master at Cambria, Pa.--showing that
homemade Iron is now burdened at least
equally with Imported by our heavy Federal,
State and local taxation, so that it is unfair and
misleading to represent the American Iron
master a. protected by the whole amount Of the
duty on Foreign Iron, was printed by US some
weeks ago The Erening Post made it the text
of q characteristic attack on Protection, which
Mr.. Morell exposes and refutes in the following
letter.
| He who does not see that Free Trade involves
directly the bauishment from our country of all
those branches or departments of industry
whereof the product is of large cost or value in
proportion to its bulk, must be willfully blind;
but the selfshness which says, "What do Icare
for that, so long as my calling is unaffected 2" is
not less blind. Expel from our land the larger
portion of its manufacturing industry, and you
inevitably reduce the wages of all laborers
whatever. Those thrown out of work in one
calling must find it in some other-of course, at
lower wages than they could earn in the yoca-
tons for which they were fully qualified. Close
our furnaces tomorrow, and you compel those
now employed therein to seek work wherein
they are less skilled and of course at far lower
wages, displacing Others who must submit to
like necessity. But let us see Mr.. Morrelps
letter, with which The Erening Post does not
trust its readers. IL il as follows:

The English Government has published fur
ther diplomatic correspondence between Mr.
Adams and the British Foreign Secretary. Mr.
Adams, on Nov. 81, notifies the English Gov
ernment that its proposal for a joint commits
sion is declined by the United States. Ear
Clarendon, the new Foreign Secretary, in q
letter of Dec. q desires the discontinuance o.
the correspondence concerning the American
claims, on the ground that the topic is fully ex

The Health Bill, the main features OF which
we gave in yesterdays TRIBUNE will probably
come before the Legislature this week. The
sooner the better If we begin Immediately
we NAV have time enough to cleanse the city
before the mild days of Spring, when the cholera
may be upon us, and which, in our present con-
dition, we are so little prepared for. The bill
is certainly good basis to work upon. though,
perhaps. when it comes under careful consider
alton. it may, in some points, be found capable
of Improvement. and be made better to answer
the purpose aimed at. II seems to us, for in
stance, that the Commission may properly be
increased by giving seats at the Board to the
Mayors of New-York and Brooklyn, and to the
Health Officer Of the Port, c6foio. They
would all add strength to the Commission, and
the duties of the Health Officer are so identical
with those which will be imposed upon the
physicians to be appointed under the bill, that
there seems all obvious proprety in making
him q member of the Board. With three or
four of the most eminent medical men Of the
town, to be selected by the Governor with
reference only to their fitness for the post, with
the addition, er oGieio, Of the Police Commits
sioners, the Mayors and the Health Officer, we
may hope that all will be done that can be to
secure the health Of the city at all times, and to
protect us from the pestilence whose coming
seems now almost inevitable.
