There has been made an open attempt to
bribe the committee appointed by the house
of representatives, at Springfield, to inves.
tigate the alleged frauds practiced upon the
State in the purchase Of printing paper &c.
Mr. Munson declared in his place, on the Sd,
that $500 had been sent him, to be used in
corruptng the chairman Of the committee,
Mr.. Talbot. The very fact that the par
ties to be affected by the investigation at
tempt to purchase white washing report
from the committee is proof conclusive that
there has been fraud prscticed, and should
encourage the committee TO prosecute the
investigation with determination, and to ex-
pose the corruption and bring to punish
ment the guilty parties Mr.. Childs so far
became the apologist of the accused persons
as to compare their action in offering the
bribe to the desperate alternative of man
confronted by an outlaw demanding his
money or his life MIR. Kerr and Mr.. Taylor
concided with Mr.. Childs. The house
evnced its determination, by very decided
vote, to sustain the committee in its efforts
to make full discovery and exposition of
the alleged frauds and corruptions, which
we hope they will do.

was arranged by Mr.. Chase us soon as tho
cabinet was appointed These gentlemen
repaired TO the White House, and were cor
daily received by the President. Hardly
had the conversation been commenced, how
ever, when al usher bolted into the apart
meut, and rudey said to the President, / ou
are wanted = Yes curtly responded Lin
coln, impatient at the intrusion. The usher
left, and the consultation was resumed. II
had gone forward only few minutes when
the usher again entered, and with marked
emphasis said to the President, 'SHE wants
you = and nodded to the company with an
air that more than intimated, you are not
wanted" Lincoln hastily retired, throwing
some apology behind him, when Wadsworth
proposed that the committee themselves
should pay their respects to the lady of the
mansion Cards were sent in, aud the gen
temen soon followed. The manner in which
the lady received her distinguished visitors
plainly showed that she was ready for an
encounter with the heads Of the anti Seward
faction. BridliDg up, she informed them
that she learned it had been reported that
she interfered with her husbands affairs, but
she wanted them TO distinctly understand
that this was not true. The icy interview
soon terminated when the lady sailed out
of the apartment. Nadsworth, as the bat'
fled radicals retreatcd down the steps Of the
White House. sarcastically remarked that
before he took part in eecting another
President, he would inquire into the nature
Of his coujugRl relations

The New York freight war has ended at
last, and, as is usually the case, Commo'
dore Vanderbilt has won the victory, Dis
covering, about fortnight ago, that some Of
the numerous companies who ship freight
over the Pennsylvania Central and Erie rail.
roads had been secretly "cutting down from
the regular tariff of rates Which all the com
panies are pledged to observe, thus drawing
a large amount of business away from the
New York Central, he promptly made ar
rangements with the companies shipping
freights over the roads to cut down all
charges to u very low figure, to make no dis
tincton between general and special freights,
and no. TO be underbid by any competitor.
When this fight openly commenced on Feb.
II, the rates were reduced to figure that
would not even pay for the cars; and since
then these companies, working in Wander.
bilts interest, have simply paid over their
whole receipts to Vanderbilt, who has lost
the difference between these receipts and
the regular price of 800 car, while the
companies have lost every cent they have
paid out during the last twelve days. This
division OF the losses between Vanderbilt
and these freight companies has enabled
them to compel the other roads to come to
terms, and the regular tariff Of rates was re-
sumed on the lst inst, over each of the
Trunk Lines" The contest, while it last
ed, was great advantage to oil the large
shipping merchants in New York. The
usual tariff of Sls8 per 100 pounds wes
cut down by degrees to Is cents, and an
enormous amount q goods was sent away.

lish steam ploughs running in
this country-one in Kentucky,
one in Texas, and three in
Louisiana. They cost about
SIS, 900, and give great salts
factory, as they do the work of
twenty or thirty horses, with
the labor of two or three atten-
dants. In England there are
two thousand Of these ploughs
and in Egypt four hundred. -
They run a gang of from three
to six ploughs, and pulverize
as deep as fourteen inches.
They can go much deeper if the
farmer wishes. Two or three
inventors are working out the
Yankee steam plough. One
proposes to build, for about
$4,000, an engine that will
move back and forth on the
line of a wire rope fastened at
the headlands to the self-ad-
vancing anchor.
