Henry ID. Moore, who has been recently con
phia, this morning assumed the duties OF his
position. AS a matter of course there were q
great many Office Seekers who desired an au-
dience with the new official, but all were re.
fused as the first thing the Collector did was to
issue an order that applicants would only be
heard between three and five o'clock in the
Afternoons, and then only at his office.
The only changes thus far made are in the ap.
pointment of the two deputies and the cashier.

position OF deputy. which he occupied under

WASHINGTON, "A pril 5-Mr. Schurz introd uced

Committee of Commerce.
Mr. Sumner introduced q bill to prevent the

Mr. Chandler called up the bill to authorize

Telegraph Company to land its submarine cable
on the shores of the United states The pend
ing amendment was that offered by Mr.. Stock.
ton, authorizing any cable company chartered
by the laws OF any State to land its cable on the
shores of the United States, subject ultimately
TO regulation by Congress
Mr. Stockton declared himself opposed to all
legislation upon the sabIect, but II 1t must be
legislated upon, he thought the bill ought first
to go to the Committee on the Judiciary be-
cause IL involved the question of the right of
Congress TO authorize a foreign company to
land its cable on the shores of this Union He
believed that Congress had no such right nor
any right to legislate for the making of tele.
graphs or railroads, but only the right to regu-
late commerce upon roads and canals when
made by the States. In the maintenance of
this view he made o long argument.
The expiration OF the morning hour brought
up the unfinished business OF Saturday, the
Joint Iesolntion to protect the Interests of the
Unite States in the Union Pacific Railroad.
Mr.. Chandler moved to postpone it and con.
tinue the consideration of The Cable bill. Lost.
The pending question was on the amendment
dent OF the United STATES to fix the point of
junction of the Union Pacific and the Central
Pacific Railroads, and for that purpose, II he
deems 1t expedient 10 appoint board of emil
nent citizt ms, not exceeding five in number, to
examine and report in regard TO the proper
| point OF the junction, and also in regard to the
| condition OF each road, and what Rum will be
required TO complete 1t as q first-class railroad
| according 10 law.
| Mr.. Trumbuil, from the Committee on the
| Judiciary, reported, without amendment, the
bill prescribing oath of Office to be taken by
persons who participated in the late Rebellion,
| but who are not disqualified from holding
| office by the fourteenth a ticle of amendment
| to the Constitution OF The United States.
1t provides that when such Persons
shall be elected or appointed to any
| Office of trust or honor under the
| United States Government, and shall
| not be able to take the oath prescribed July 2,
| 1862. on account of participation in the late
Rebellion, they shall. In lieu thereof before
entering upon the duties of the office, take the
oath prescribed in the act OF July H. 1868, pre-
scrbing an oath of Office to be taken by persons
from wnom legal disabilities shall have been
remoVed.

An Ell Paso (Texas) exchange con.
tains an account of the death of forlorn
old lady, who had occupied a room in one
of the public buildings If that town for
some years, and about whose name and
history nothing was known. She had
seemed to shrink from notice, and lived
a cherries and lonely life. She was
found last week dclirious with fever, from
which she soon died. She was buried at
the expense of the town authorities. Af-
ter the funeral her effects were examined,
and sewed up in an old petticoat, several
thousand dollars in United States bonds
were found secreted in an old trunk. She
had not LETT a scrap of writing by which
her identity can be proved, except some
letters from some person in Cincinnati,
relative to property she owned and was
rented there. Through this party there
is some hope of discovering who and
what this old female miscr had been.

LARGE PAY AND LITTLE WoRK.-At
the last session OF the Legislature, three
Commissioners were appointed to codliy
the laws of this State. These Commits,
aToners are Corbiny Montgomery and
Whipper, the first two, white, the latter,
q negro. They have finished their Code
and presented it for the consideration OF
the present Legislature. A correspon-
dent of the Chronicle and Sentinel gives
the subioined account Of how the work
bas been done:
The code is said, by our best lawyers,
who have compared II with the code OF
New York, to be a copy OF tho latter, al
most complete. The divisions numbers
and arrangement throughout are the
same and as to language it is word for
,cord the same almost through, the only de-
parturc being where some local lcgisla'
ton required tho variation OF phrase
hero and there.
Now for this work the Act allows them
s3 500 each per annum orS10, $40 oayear;
besides "for reasonable expenses OF ccrf-
cal services, books, printing, stationery,
and other necessary and incidental mat
ters, not exceeding $4,000 annually. =
That is the code is to cost the State
SIS 500. Torun over the New York code
with q pencil, making the changes, and
then to copy the whole off, could be done
for rather loss than Sl5,5OO, one would
suppose.

Twas the night before Christmas when all through
the house
Not creature was stirring, not even mouse;
The stockings we're hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that st. Nicholas soon would be there,
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced thro' their
heads;
And mamma in her 'kerchief and 1 in my cap,
Had lust settled our brains for long winter nap
When out en- the lawn there arose such clatter
sprang from the bed to see what was the matter !;
Away to the window Few like flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon. on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave the lustre of mid day to objects below;
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear
But miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer,
With little old driver, so lively and quick,
knew in moment it must be St. Nick
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whisled, and shouted, and called them by
name;
"Now, Dashcr! now, Dancer! now, Pranccr now'
Vixon!
On Comit, on Cupid, on, Donder and Blixen-
To the top of the porch to the top Of the wall!
Now, dash away, dash away, dash away all j.
As leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with au obstacle mount to the SKY,
With the sleigh full of toys-and ST. Nicholas TOO;
And then in twinking heard on the roof,
The prancing and paving of each little hooi.
As drew in my head, aud WAS turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with hound
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and
scot;
bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And looked like pedlar just opening his pack
His cyes-how they twinkled his dimples how mer-
ry! go
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like cherry
His droll little mouth was drawn up like bow !;
And his beard on his chin white rs the snow;
The stump of pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like wreath
! He had broad face, and little round belly
That shook, when he laughed like bowl full OF
jelly. -, 30
And laughed when I saw him, in spite OF myself
A wink of his eye, and twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know had nothing to dread.
He spoke not word, but went straight to work.
And fHed all the Stockings; and turned with a jerk
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving nod, up the chimney he rose,
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave WHISTLE
| And away they all flew like the down of thistle;
Bnt heard him exclaim ere he drove out OF sight,
Merry Christmas to aN and to au a good night!
