that the House recede from its action, which
would have the effect of passing the bill as
it came from the Senate. Mr.. Holman
moved that the House adhere to its action
which would make it final. Mr.. Ketcham
in view Of Mr. Scofeld's motion, withdrew
his own and hoped the House would adop

Pneumatic Transportation.

A bill is pending before Congress to
incorporate the Pneumatic Tube Road
Company" which proposes to construct
such road from New York to New Or
leans. As the incorporators number
among them several well-known lobby
lists, and as the proposed charter grants
many privileges and promises no return
therefor, it is probable that this particu-
lar scheme will be negatiyed. If it could
be intrusted to capable hands, great
good might result. London, Paris AMI
Berlin have pneumatic dispatch tubes
for the transmission of parceis, etc, and
New York has an incomplete pneumatic
railway. Itrequires but little moro trial
to devise system of sending men and
women as speedily and safely as we can
now send parcels; and its success will
revolutionize travel far more thoroughly

HON. BLACKWELL JACKSON


The Wheeling Regis;er, seized with
q sudden desire, it seems, to render
homer to whom honor is due, pays the
following wsll.merited compliment TO
tho gentleman whose name heads this
articles
"Uno Of tue mos. judiciOus aud sen.
sible members II the Constitutional
Convention is Blackwell Jackson, Of
Lewis county. He is careful aud
watchful: aud he believes the people
were in earnest in demanding, not only
reforms in tho administration Of their
governmental affairs, but in the ccono.
my of expenditures also. Vixen the
question OF allowing each member Of
the Legislature, by Constitutional pro-
vision, ten dollars for poSIage stamps,
was before the Convention, Mr.. Jack.
son opposed it as unnecessary and ex.
travagant. He called the attention Of
the members Of the Convention to the
fact that they had increased the nun.
Der of the members of the House Of
Delegates; proposed to increase their
pay per diem by thirty.thrse per cent /,
aud now we are called upon TO add still
further to the pay Of this increased
number Of members the sum Of ten
dollars each, under a poor prOtcxt.
The remarks Of Mr.. jackson in this
connection were characterized
by moderation, good sense, and firm
desire to subSrve the best interests Of
the people, The influence Of his argu.
msuts went far toward bringing about
the reduction that was afterwards made
in the per diem allowance ofthe mem.
bcrs to SS. We hope tho new Con.
stitution will cmphatically prohibit tho
Legislature from voting into tue pock-
cts Of its members ten or any other
number Of dollars, for postage stamps
or for any other purpose whatever.
This subject is commended to Mr..
Jackson and other strict economists in
that body. 1t is not enough that the
Constitution shall not authorize it, as
we have seen heretofore, but it Is nee.
etsary that that instrument shall, in 50
many words, prohibit it, OF this effort
ut economy will be Of no avail"

TIE PRINTING FRAUDS.

says the Courier issued that day con.
tanned lengthy article in relation to
public printing. II charges that in

ing Inte.liyeuc,r drew from The Treas.
ury, without lawful warrants or au.
shortly, more than fifteen thousand
dollars. Sevcral distinct and specific
frauds arc shown up, and further reve-
litions promised. The article has
created scn'aiion here, and shows that
the present Radical clamor about pre-
venting frauds is merely an attemp, 10
divert public attention from the true
culprits, The article concludes a. fol.
lows: "Dnring the years in which the
people Of tue iRiehi9accr fattened at

there prevailed such recklessntS and
