The ent Business.

According to the statement of the pro-
ccedings of the Republican caucus, held at
Washington on Wednesday last, there is to
be delay in the prosecution Of the i'm
parchment investigation, perhaps until the
commencement-o the next session. The
effort to authorize the presentation Of mo-
ton for the appointment Of special COM
mittec, to take up the subject 1T the point
where the judiciary Committee left off, was
lost. Also that which demanded that the
judiciary Committee shall be appointed i'm
mediately, in order to proceed with that
matter. There will, therefore, be a breath
ing spell in reference to this affair, which
will not be unwecomc to the country, as,
except in Congress, there does not seem to
be any desire to press this subject, the con-
sequence of which, in case of failure, will
be disastrous to the Republican party, and
of doubtful benefit if it should be successful

So the loyal Inquirer, has at last discov-
cred, that every sensible person well knew,
from the beginning, that the impeachment

A SURpRTsE.-On Monday evening last,
a party of about twenty or more, of the
young people of Berwick married and sim
gle-paid surprise visit to the NJ Il. Par
sonagc, and presented to Rev. John A.
Gcrc, an envelope containing one hundred
dollars in ''Greenbacks." The party were
represented by Captain G. G. jackson, who
in modest little speech presented the Rev.
erend gentleman with the contributions of
his young friends expressing hope that
while it might prove beneficial to his bodily
wants, it might also be an incentive to still
greater zeal in the spiritual work in which
he was engaged. Father Gerc very iaelingly
and gratefully accepted the gift Of his young
friends. He said the visit was one of utter
surprise to him; that he had never been
treated more kindly anywhere than by the
people of Berwick Charge, and that if he
should be so fortunate as to be returned to
labor amongst them, he trusted that he
would be the instrument in the hands Of
God, of doing them much good, in both
soul and body. Altogetlc., the affair was
we'll planned aud most happily executed, and
all the participants must have felt that sit
was good to be there" Verify, sit is more
blessed to give than than receive" After
indulging for short time in the delightful
exercise of vocal and Instrumental music,

So You WE'RE ToLD.-The Chicago Post
(Radital of the 4th has made discovery.
1t is important, though nothing to Dem.
ocrats and conservatives. Says the Post !:
''Thc people are burthened with more taxes
than they can pay. The industry of the
country is stiheI, the resources from which
alone the payment of the National debt is
to be expected are permanently diminished
and crippled" "
When confessions are voluntarily made by
the Republican press, you may accept the
belief, without further questioning that the
taxation under which the people are groan-
ing is excessive beyond computation. It
stands to reason, then, that the people need
relief, or ''thc industry of the country can
not be released from the "stihcd' condition,
which is playing the very deuce with it,
Look over the proceedings Of Cougrcss and
sec whether you can find any measure either
introduced or passed, that is in any way
possibly calculated to lessen the taxes, which
are now more than our people can pay
You'll about as quickly find needle droo-
ped into haystack as discover any such
legislation. Abundance of legislation in
crcasing the taxes you can easily find. - Ohio

Eay' Mr. Chalfant of the House has pre-
sentcd rcmonstranccs from citizens Of Co.
lumbia County against the passage of a law
allowing the Street Cars to run on Sunday
in Philadelphia: One Of the documents
was read to the House, VIII ch conta ms many
assertions unsupported by arguments or
facts, against the Sunday Car travel. For
instance, it says:
"1n fact, the Sunday cars and the Sun
day liquor trade arc essentially one interest,
and both are adapted to grind down the
poor ignorant, and make them more so. p"
Again:
"Ths plea for Sunday cars that they
facilitate church going, is worse than hol-
low pretense The church.goin people of
Philadelphia are all opposed to Sunday cars
and Sunday drinking
The latter, "Sunday drinking" no doubt
they are opposed to; but the other question
We should be willing to take their decision
upon.

This gentleman retiros from tho United
Statcs Senate full Of honow. Words can
not be found to express tho gratitude which
the American people should feel to this dis
interested man. When the people Of tho
United States were wild when war frenzy
was the order Of the day when statesman
ship seemed to be extinct; when all the elc-
ments Of social enconomy were apparently
prccipitatcd into chaos, this bold man stood
forth, in the Congress Of the nation, and
fearlessly proclaimed doctrines which will
live, with honor, in all time, as Il portion,
and n vital portion, Of what all thinking
men know as the true conservative doctrines
Of the Republican institutions Of America.
We may be considered enthusiastic on the
subject of Mr.. Cowan's course in the Sen
ate of the United States butlwhen we come
to reflect that he was elected by the party
who, during the progress Of the war, thought
no man, woman, or child loyal unless they
would shout, "death to tie South, adhang
erey COpprhe1,d IL the Morth"-we say,
when we reflect that Edgar Cowan, after be-
ing elected by party Of this kind, had the
courage, when his opposition to the trump
majority in Congress was virtual political
ruin in the midst of the war, to stand up
in the Congress, and tell that body in their
teeth that they were doing wrong, he made
a display of moral courage rarely to be met
with. Tie did this at time when men who
prolessed to be Democrats were weak-knccd; ;
at timo when most prominent men in the
nation were faltering; and We boldly say, at
time uhen no leading statesman, in Con-
'grcss, or out, dared assume the position that
Edgar Cowan took.
Let men who aspire to be Statesmen profit
by his example
