In an exceedingly handsonie valedietory Mr. W. A. Harris takes leave to-day of his breth- ren of the press and the readers of the Union. The Proper management of his private affairs, unoonnected with the editorial duties of the Union, be states, has rendered it necessary that he should relieve himself of its labors. He has accordingly sold his entire interest nm the Union newspaper establishment to Corne- lius Wende!!, Exq., by whom it will in future ‘| be published. The Inteli:gencer has an ample budget of news matters, but no editorial to-day. ———_—+e+e- WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. Comtxe ro TerMs.—The opposition in the Senate, at an early hour yesterday, determined not to make a factious opposition to the enact- ment of the Kansas State bill, asking only for what they claim to be due time in which to de- bate it legitimately. That was frankly and promptly accorded by the friends of the bill; and the balance of the day’s session went off in exeellent temper, and harmoniously, so far as the personal bearing of all the members of the body is concerned. The firm bearing of the majority throughout the protracted session of the night before last doubtless sufficed to check, and indeed overcome, the disposition of @ portion of ‘the bill’s Senatorial opponents to essay the policy of attempting to defeat the measure by wearing out its friends by “ parli- mentary expedients,”’ 23 persistent factious motions are termed now. Apropos:—1t will strike the man of common Sense as gross inconsistency, on the part of those Opponents of the bill who counsel a resort to such expedients to deteat it—the eo-well ascer- tained will of the majority of the Senate— while at the same time they are bellowing themselves hoarse against what they alleged to be the factious efforts of the friends of the Le compton constitution in Kansas, to defeat the alleged will of the majority there. We have seen in various opposition journals, and heard in the conversation of opposition wen around us, most violent appeals for revo- lutionary measures in both chambers of the National Legislature to compass the defeat of this bill, evineing a state of mind on the part of many influential anti-Lecomptonites bor- dering on desperation, if not insanity. Sober second thought, however, has rescued the op- Position of the Senate from the danger of stand- ing in the damaging attitude before the coun- try in which their more vehement friends would place them. We regret to write that at present we do not see reason to hope that the House epponents of the bill will act as wisely, at least, until after expending much profitless fury, froth and wind. Evin Poresopisas.—The New York Herald bas of late been as true to ita declared convie- tions upon questions of national import as any other journal inthe land. We have been much gratified by its recent course, in the belief that its conductor has at length realized the value of fixed character in a journal and was about to demonstrate his new appreciation of it. In his issue of Sunday last, however, he staggers us by an article wherein he assumes the defeat of the general policy of the present national Administration, to the success of which he has been aconsistent friend. We may not be un- derstood as charging on him a want of entire sympathy with it (the Administration ) On the contrary, his persistent friendship for it has demonstrated to our conviction the earncst- neas of his desire for its triumph to the end Lia mal apropos prognostications, however, in the connection referred to above, convince us of his lack of political acumen—a misfortune rather than afault. He takes it for granted that the Lecompton constitution is destined to fail, and that its failure is fraught with disas- ters dire to the present national Administra- tion. Now, we have to say that in his estimate of the strength of the Lecompton Constitution in Congress, the Herald’s editor is entirely at fault. Its friends here fecl assured of its suc- cess upon grounds we cannot explain for want of room, 30 as to throw more light on the par- ticular point than we have already shed upon it. As his argument to show that peculiar dangers besct the Administration is based wholly on the bypothesis of the defeat of the Lecompton Constitution, it of course falls to the ground. We are happy, indeed, to be able to assure the Herald that it may dry up its tears as soon #3 possible, for the admission of Kansas into the Union, with the Lecompton Constitution, is a foregone conclusion, as jwatters now stand here Tem Marsmatsmip or tax District. —It feems that Kansas engrosses the attention of Congress, to the exclusion of all other concerns of a public nature. In this District the admin- istration of justice is virtually stopped, for want of legal officers. There is no United States officer who can serve process, or execute justice in any way. The Courts of the District of Cc- lumbia and the Grand Jury have adjourned over, from time to time, in the hope and belief that a Marshal would be appointed, and con- firmed by the Senate. For ourself, we have nothing to say but praise concerning the fitness and qualifications of Marshal Hoover or of the character and conduct of any gentleman who was lately an applicant to succeed him; but, “after @ full and searching Scrutiny into tke claims of the various applicatfts for the office, it was the pleasure of the President to nominate for that office bis old and steady friend, Col. ‘Belden, whose appointment receives the general "approbation of our fellow citizens, we feel as- sured, as that of cither of bis opponents would have done ; and as we are quite sure, from our personal knowledge of the Colonel, that bothing can be justly ssid against him, we respectfully submit to the Senate the propriety of acting upon bis nomination without delay. “ The Jaw’s delay” ie a grievance here now. Tux Wasaixcton Usiox.—Yesterday morn- ing Cornelius Wendell, Esq., announced, through the columns of the Union, that he has azain become its publisher; and to-day Col. Wm. A. Harris, of Mo., announces that be bas transferred it to Mr Wendell. Col. Harris is induced to this course, it seems, by the pressure of business engagements upon him. His va'«dietory to his readers is grace- ful, and worthy of his bigh reputation of an ardent Democrat. All the present political world know Mr. Wendell, the printer of the last House of Rey- reventatives, fur a most enterprising and ener- getic business man, and a Democrat who has but to learn how he can best serve the good cause, to do that thing “with arash ’’ In the last Presidential canvasshe probably expended more money in gratuitous printing and other- wise bearing necessary canvassing expenses of the Democratic party, —much® more—than any other gentleman in the Union. The appear- ance of his name at the head of its columns as the Union's publisher for the future, embraces what all here will at once comprehend to be a complete guarantee that its affairs will be con- ducted so as that it will be a prosperous jour- nal, indeed. PouitrcaL Desperation. —Acting on the hint Mr. John W. Forney is understood to have given them during his recent brief visit to the Federal Metropolis, in declaring that unless they succeed in defeating the great meazure of the Democratic party and the National Admin- istration, they are ‘“‘dead men,’’ politically, hereafter, the forlorn hope of the distinguished Senator from lilinois—his immediate political cohort in both Houses—are just now by far the bitterest and fiercest opponents of the Kansas- State bill in either chamber; being more un- governuble in the hostility of their sentiments towards their Southern co-legislators and the South generally, than the venerable Joshua R. Giddings has manifested himself to be at any time this session. By the South in Congress, without a single exception so far as we can learn, they have come to be regarded as more unrelenting foes to Southern rights than a ma- Jority of the ayowed Republican party members; thus illustrating the eternity of the truth de- claring that the most zealous in any cause are likely to be the newest converts to it. Con. Sumver.—The result of the recent court martial up this gallant oficer, held at Carlisle Barracks, was his acquittal on both the charges preferred against him. This intel- ligence will, no doubt, be exceedingly gratify- ing to his friends in the army and elsewhere. The deliberation of the Court, after the te*:i- mony was all heard, was of very short duration ere the verdict of “not guilty’? was agreed upon. Col. 8. left Carlisle immediately after the adjournmeéntof the Court to visit his family at Watertown, N.Y. He is under orders for Utah, and it is expected will leave Fort Lea- venworth with his regiment about the 10th of May. Our information as to his acquittal is from official sources, and confirms the previous- ly published rumors. Tae Persona, Miscspenstaxpixc.—Our readers of all parties, we know, will rejoice that the almost-a-personal collision oceuring in the course of the Senate’s protracted eession of the night betore last, between Senators Green and Cameron, was satisfactorily adjusted yes- terday, in open Senate, hy the frank and manly explanations made on both sides (and duly published in the Szar) which have restored their amicable relations, thus momentarily in- terrupted. Bros ror Treasury Notes.—In our notice, yesterday, we omitted to mention that all the proposals for Treasury notes published in the list of bids, which were under five per cent. premium were accepted. These comprised an aggregate sum of $2,700,000 of the notes. The remaining 2,200,000 of the whole amount of notes offered were divided pro rata among the five per cent. bidders. Rearroixtwext.—It is a report, which no doubt emanates from an entirely reliable source, that Philip Barton Key, Eeq., has been nominated to the Senate for reappointment as District Attorney for the District of Columbia. This is gratifying intelligence to a large circle of friends of that gentleman. Tax Weataen.—The following report of the weather for this mprning is made from the Morse Telegraph line to the Smithsonian Institution. The time of observation is about7 o’clock a.m : March 17, 1858.

Mr. Pennock, the friend and fellow-travel- er of Bayard Taylor, died of consumption on the 9h instant, at Kennett Square, Pa. The reported insanity of Thoma ington Smith, by the Philadelphia “Press,” is denied by the Baltimore papers, who say that he is in that city, apparently as rational as ever. ---. In answer to the Inquiry of a correspond- ent as to whom the wood cut on the cover of (he Atlantic Monthly is intended to represent, the New York Post thinks if it is not a portrait of frovernor Winthrop, it must be of some and cholerie contributor; it is so very mueh ruf- fled. Apropos to these same ‘ruffles ;”” the ques- tion above started came up a few days azo in an Avenue book-store, and it was referred to Greeley of the Tribune, who happened to be present,and who, as editor of a New York paper, was sup- posed to know everything. Horace, afier a pro- tracted squint at the cut, decided that it could not be Winthrop, as “he js a younzer man, and, be- sides doesn’t wear ruffies..’ Greeley evidently had the last, instead of the first of the Winthrops in his mind's eye {7 The New York papers are poking fun at the eclipse. It seems to have been as much ofa failure there as in these parts. DveLtine AMNESTY —The bill passed by the Virginia House of Delegates granting an amnesty toall persons who have been engaged in duels before the first of March last, was passed by the Senate on Monday last. The bill dves not affect in any degree the future operation of the anti- duelling law, but merely grants an amnesty to those who had come under the disabilities con- tained in it, before the Ist inst, {77 Tbe New York Express says that only about one in ten of the Passengers gn the under- ground railroad, reported by the abolitionist papers, are in reality fugitive slaves. Cunning negroes, under this pretence, now thus travel about, with “free rides”? “free board,” and without work. If “the Underground” did the twentieth part of the real work it reports itself doing, Canada wouid be so full of negroes that there would be no room for the white man. if From Central America we bave news dated at Managua, Nicaragua, on the 30th of January, and at San Jose, Costa Rica, on the 6th of Feb- ruary. The Constituent Assembly of Nicaragua had declared the governments of General Walker unconstitusional, and all their acts, treaties, grants and naturalization decress vold and worth- less. The denationalization of General Walker and of all his followers was decreed, and they were repudiated as citizens of the republic by decree. General Lamar, our Minister, had ar- rived, but having left his credentials behind him, at home, did not present himself in his official character, although the President offered to re- ceive him pending their production. Gen. La- mar, would, it was expected, soon return home, without appearing ina diplomatic character at all, The condition of the patriots in the late straggle is represented as very wretched, and the country is spoken of as drifting rapidly to- wards a moral and commercial disorganization. 10 The ditcnity at Wan! ton College, Lex- ipgton, noticed in letters from that place, bas been adjusted, and the dissatisfied students Lave been icconciled and returned to their studies. CONGRESSIONAL. Thirtysfifth Congrese—First Session. In tHe Senate, yesterday, after Mr. King con- cluded his remarks in opposition of Kansas, Mr. Mallory made a brief but earnst argument in advoeacy of that measure Mr. Pugh also advocated the measure, and con- tended that in admitting the State Congress is not asked to approve the constitution. Mr. Stnart Ex notice that at an early day he would reply to Mr. P.’s remarkable argiameut The Senate then adjourned, Ix tux Hous, among the resolutions agreed to was one by Mr. Hoard, directing the Commit- tee on the Judictary to inquire into the expeal- ency of making postmasters elective. On motion of Mr, Covode the following joint resolution was adopted : Resolved by the Senate and House of Repre- sentatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives declare their respective houses ad- journed sine die on the first Monday of June next at 12 o’clocky m. The Speaker laid before the House 2 memorial frem the inembers and officers of the Legislative Assembly of Utah. They set forth that at the last session ef Congress they sent a memorial‘to the President of the United States, to which no re- sponse had been made. They complain that the Vresident bad appointed Territorial officers re- pagnant tothe people, and had sent them there backed by an army, and that all communication between the Territory and the Government has been cut off. They ask Congress to reconsider the course already taken, to respect their const!- tutional , Withdraw the troops, and give them a voice in the selection of their rulers. They deny being in a state of rebellion. The House then adjourned. Proceedings of To-day. Is THE SeNatE, to-day, Mr. Bigler presented a nreimorial from sundry citizens of Philadelphia, creditors of Texas; referred to the Finance Com- mittee. Mr. Stuart endeavored to call up the calendar of privateclaims. Objected to. Mr. Hale arose to correct a remark made by Mr. Beajamin yesterday, that at the time of the sub- mittal by Mr Toombs of a bill for the admission of Kansas, be bad pronounced that bill unexcep- tionable He denied that he had expressed any such opinion of the Toombs’ bill, and bad offer- ed amendments thereto. # Hie tread from the published proceedings to substantiate his contradiction, but admitted that he bad pronounced the bill fair, if it were possi- ble that the government of Kausas should he ad- ministed by honest mea. He then hoped that that governipent weuld be administered by hon- est men; but now, he alleged, the ground for this hope was removed. Mr. Benjamin replied that he was under the impression that he had quoted the gentleman aright, but it appears that he did not. The ad- mission, however, that the yenUleman regarded the bill fair, and only feared tbat the government would not be administered by honest mep, was tantamount almost to what he had represented him to say, that he found no fault with the bill ir. Brown called up the bill amending the Provident Association of Clerks overnment Departments at Wash- ington City ;” which was, passed Shortly atterwards, the’ consideration of the Kansas bill was resumed Mr Crittenden proceeded to address the Senate in opposition to the bill. Ix tee House, the memorial of the Utah Legislature was laid on the table and ordered to be printed The Speaker announced the Army billas pend *&, Quitman appealed to the Honse to con- tinue the debate oa that bill nat it stall be dis- Posed of, which may be to-morrow morning Mr. Pendicton advocated an increase of the army of the United States, and stated the reasons which led him to this conclusion, if we expect the Executive to perform faithfully, promtly and etticiently, the duties intrusted to him by the con- stitution. Hespoke of our exteusive possessions, and the necessity which exists for such an in- crease of the permanent forces. = ee ——< 7 i> The news from Utah by way of Califor- nia isto the 7thof Jannary. The Mormons, if we may judge from their public speeches, were as obstinate and rampant for warasever. A me- morial signed by the members and officers of the Utah Legislature has been sent to Congress. Itre- cites the alleged wrongs of the Saints, and calls upon the President to restore tothe Mormons their lost property in Missouri, and punish the murder- ers of the Prophet Joseph Smith and the assassin of Parley P. Pratt. They say if the Government will restore their constitutional rights, withdraw their invading army, and permit them to make their own official appointments, all will be right; but intimate that unless this be done trouble will come of it. We have also news from Col. Johnston’s eamp to the 26th of January, seventeen days later than previous accounts. The health of the troops con- tinued yood. But little had occurred to vary the monotony of camp life, It was supposed that another route than that heretofore decided on would be taken by the army in their advance upon Salt Lake City. No mail from the East had reached the camp since October. eas | Itis reported that Brigham Young has been’ instigating the Oreyon Indians to rebel.
