Keferred to District Committee. Senator CaTret, in his letter declining to bea candidate ior re-election to the United States Senate from New Jersey, gives as the Treason for the decision thatsince his return to Washington a slight relapse from what seemed re-established bealth has constrained him to doubt whether he can return f discharge all the duties and responsibilities of the position of Senator any longer than his present term with entire justice to the republican party of New Jersey, or with safety to business. The Newark Advertiver says: “Mr. Cattell, although for a be-time a man of the most active business gave himeel! up to the duties of his high with an intense and untiring devotion which hes broken his strength. More th year ago he found himself compelled to draw Irom active duty, only visiting the C: tol when important votes were to be taken. During the recees he got better, hut at the first intimation that his recovery is not perfect, hi retuses to allow himselfto become the possibly int ficient servant of the State.” ‘Tux WASHINGTON MARKET CoMPANY INvEs- TIGATION.—On the llth of July last the House passed a resolution directing the Committee on Appropriations to inquire into any mismanage- ment of the Affairs of the Washington Market Company. On Monday last the committee ap- yon ted a sub-committee, corsisting of Messra. Beeman, Kelsey, and Satgent, to conduct the inv setigation, and ey noulicd Wm. A. Cook and Samuel T. Suit, who had made the charges, oappear before the sub-committee last even- ing. Mr. Suit being in New York, did rot ap- pear, consequently the examination was » ot commerced. Mersrs. Wm. E. Chandler and A. MM. Tinker, of the Washington Market Com- pany, were before the committee on behalf of the Market Company, and will reprecert t':e company during the examination. A telegram has been sent to Mr. Suit .o appear before the committee; but as a new company Des now been tor , a=d the work upon the new building is progressing. it is not probable that anything will come out ot the investigation. Kzrenpine AcT.—The following is the iu text of the bill besore the Ways and Committee: “To emend an act entitled an act to euthorize the refunding of the public debt,” better known as the three hundred million five cent. bond bill. It was drawn by 5+ ry Boutwell Le it enacted, &e., ‘Chat tue Secre of the Treasury be and he hereby is authorized to issue in 4 sum Or sums pot exceeding three hundred mliions of dollars of coupon or registered bords insach form as he may prescribe, and of de- pominationof tity dollars or some maltiple of that sum, redeemable in coin of the present standard value, atthe pleasure of the United States, after ten days trom the date of their issue. and bearing interest payable quarterly in © the rate of five per cent. per aunum, Said three hundred millions of bonds to be in addi. tien to the amount of tive per cent. bonds a! thorized by said act, and to be subject to al! the habilities, exemptions «nd conditions authorized by said act. And be it further enacted, That the interest upon the bonds authorized by said act may be made payable quarterly, anything in said act to the fet J notwithstanding. The effect of this bill, if it becomes a law, is to give the Secretary power to refund into five bundred miltions of five per cent. bonds the ma- tuing six per cent.

Mr. Lewis had presented many tions of democrats for the removat of their bilities, but owing to the manner im which the demo- crats of Virginia were now acting in that State he did not Know that he should favor any more of their petitions; and if the Senator would look at the late election returns in Virginia he would find the democratic majority had been much cut down, and he (Mr. L.) pledged him- self to annihilate that majority at the next elec- tion.

The people of the late slaveholding States had to cut loose from old associations, their thoughts should be diverted 1rom the past and to the future. The first was to incon- testibly demonstrate to them there was no hope of a reaction in their favor; aud the to make them look to the future was to do away with all those political restrictions impoced upon them. It is evident that the exclusion of apy great mass of men from the ballot-box is most potent to stir up elementsof hatred. It is an abnormal condition of things to exact of men all the duties of a citizen and confer upon them none of his privileges. And one great condition of RESTORING THE BRA OP GOOD PEELING, was that the very party which had imposed these restrictions nate its schemes and plans, and force it, most unwillingly, to aid us in promoting the interest of Baltimore.

The rapid development of the commerce of Baltimore must soon demand that a tirst-cla.+ ship canal be constructed to unite ihe watsrs of the upper Chesapcake with those of the Dela ware bay.
