Whe Last Hours of Congress—Passage of the Cheap Postage ard other Important Bulls, Our readers will find, under our regular tele- graphic head, a pretty full report, by telegraph, of the proceedings of both houses of Congress yes- terday, and up to an early hour this morning; together with a complete list of all the acts, of every kind, which were passed during the present | revsion, tothe hour of our going to press. The | Jabor and expense of procuring al! this information have been of no trifling character. Heretofore it | hes been usual to publish the list of acts passed, | three or four days, end sometimes a week, after the adjournment; but, in this age of lightging | avd steam, our people cannot afford to wait so | Jong. In order to keep pace with the spirit of | the age, as well as with the improvements of | the day, we have taken the pains to publish the list of acts passed to the latest moment. Ae will be perceived by a perusal of our telegraphic Teport, in another column, the last hours of Con- gress have been marked with the contusion, hucry, bustle, and excitement, which invariably precede an adjournment. As the greater part of the busi- ness was postponed to the last hours, a great deal was performed during the last hours, and, of course, in a very imperfect manner. We learn that Mesers. Clingman and Stanly, of the House, had & serious dispute, which, for a short time, was very warm, and threatened a resort to fisticuffs ; but moderation prevailed, and the horizon became clear egain. | A hard battle was fought in the ate, on the River and Harbor bill. To use the term go often | epplied by members of Congress, the friends, quasi Snends, and opponests of that measure, availed themselves of all their “ constitutional rights” to favor, to dodge, and to oppose it. The great object of its particular friends seems to have been to force | Meesrs. Cass, Douglas, and others into a committal | on it one way or the other, for political purposes, and with views directed towards the next Presidential election Daring the heat of the struggle, there wes a temporary armistice, so as to ailow the Senate to take up the Cheap Postage Bill, which was passed. This bill, as passed, isin much the seme shape as it went from the Senate to the House; the provisioa for coiniag a three cent piece, for Post Office purposes is re- tained. Among the most important bills passed yesterday, were the Cheap Postage bill; the Post Office Appropriation bill; the bill for settling private Mand claims in California ; and the resolution tea- dering @ public ship to n. Kossuth, to convey him to the United States. P. S.—Half- past four o'clock A. M.--Since writ- | son, died yeeterday morning, at # quarter past six | of the jail, requesting him to inform his wite of his New Operatic and Musical Mevements. Our intelligence from Havane, and from other quar- ters within our own country, hes furnished us with some facts which will be interesting to the musical cireles of the metropolis. According to all the projects im comtemplation, New York, till November next, will be a grand musical conservatory, that will be more at- tractive than the World’s Fair in Eomdom. All the great vocalists and musicians in the ceuntry, and many from other parte of the world, will soon com- mence their several enterprises for puplic favor in this metropolis, after having eppeared in other oities. In the first place, Parodi having completed her beilliant engegement in Boston, will be in Phil- adelphia this week, where she will give two concerts. Bhe has engaged Amalia Patti, and Hauser, the distinguished violinist, te acoompany her,there, and, also, to Charleston, Savannah, and New Orleans. Her tour will oecupy two months, and she will return im time to appear at Castle Garden, where she has been engaged by Maretzek to sing from the fifteenth of June to the middle of September. Maret- zek, in the meantime, will get together a pany, capable of bringing out new operas in a style hitherto unattempted in this country. For the present, however, Maretzek will give three Performances in Boston, with Barili Patti as prima donna, and three with*his other tragic prims donna andthe company of the Astor Place House. Next week, his wife, Bertucce Maretzek, will open the no musical season here, with s grand coneert ‘Tripler Hall, when she will appear as a harpist, in which pro- fession she has no equal in this country, and probably no superior in the world. This will be a rare musica; event, and it is quite possible that Nathalie Fitzjames will add to the interest of the occasion, by appear- ing again as a vocalist, in which she has made so highly favorable an impression. Besides these arrangements, Marti, of Havana, is preparing to form a new and powerful operatie com- pany, to perform in that city and in New York. He has made proposals already, for an establishment that is suited to carry out his views, and towards the close of the summer, or possibly sooner, he will send his forces, under his field-marshal, Pader, within our walls, to take all the people by storm. ‘The Louis Philippe of music, though he has not yet been dethroned, the maestro Bochsa, with Anna Bishop, will prepare, also, fora new campaign. Bochsa will visit London next May, with the design offengaging some great musical novelties, and it is quite possible that he may harness himself to the great Juggernaut of Jullien, before which people bow down with exulta- | tion and delight. Should these two masters of pcome- nade concerts take their station in Broadway, the conse uences will be very important to the people's pockets, and to their own treasury. Anna Bishop has been captivating thousands in the Southern cities, and will soon return, to repose upon her brilliant laurels, In addition to all this, Catharine Hayes, the great vocalist of Erin, who astonished the people of Vienna, Rome, Milan, London, Paris, and of all the great continental cities, will be here about the first of | September, having as aids to her exertions a troupe of musicians equal to the occasion. This will be an nd we must prepare for it. T, before most of these arrangements ha been put into action, the dollar concerts of Barnum, with Jenny Lind and Salvi, whoare expected in York daily, will draw large crowds together, out of which Barnum will reap the richest harvest he kasever | yet epjuyed.

The advocates and opponents of the River and Harbor bill seemed determined to force h other to the wall, and to stand to their posi- ticns, even if the appropriation bills should fail, and the business of executive session should be laid over. This triffing with the interests of the coun- try for porty purposes is not to be tolerated, Gene- rel Case, and other mombers of the Senate, have decluved the session atan end, and have refused to porticipate any further in the proceedings, or to vote any more. This action on the part of those gentlemen relieves them of responsibility as to the fate cf the Kiver and Harbor bill.

[Signed] Thompeon was arrested on Friday afternoon, by of- ficer Clark, on a warrant issued by Justice Mountfort, wherein he stood charged with being an ascomplice with a man called William Farnham. accused of pass- ing counterfeit $5 bills, the evening previous, at several grocery stores, situated in the Thirteenth | ward of this city. Farnham was arrested on the eve- ning in question, and Thompson, the next day, as above stated. On Friday night, Thompson was de- qeimed in the Thirteenth ward station house, and on Saturday morning was conveyed before Justice Mount- | fort, who committed him to the Essex atreet prison, to await a further hearing. That day, Thompon asked for pen, ink, and paper; and it is believed that duriag Saturday night the letters given above were writ:en— heevidently from that time, contemplating self des- truction, During Sunday, Thompson appeared to be much dejected; in the afternoon he blocked out the daylightf rom bis cell by placin Ket over the window, and layed himself dow: bed. About four o'clock that afternoon, our reporter virited the Thompso appeared much dejected, stating that bis life burden to him. He complained of being chilly, d said he had taken a bad cold, Among other matters of conversatioa, Thompeoa saidthat about ten days previous he had dreameda terrible dream; not, said “that Iam superstitious, by any means. but such ‘ible dream it \, thi oh has & bo with « periect horror; before my eyes.” Before our reporter left the ceil, d Alderman [laws came to the cell Whad are you doing in ther y ing the last dying —— and confession of Thomp- sop’ Thompron, in reply. rose trom bis bunk on his elbow, and locking out of the cell door at the alder- than, with e emile said,“ Many a true word is »; Ly bat @ curious coincidence if that should prove true’ A laugh then ensued, and other conver. sation of @ trivial character took place.

Wikoff ad- mitted to me and others, that he had no doubt she had told me this story; but of course denied the truth of it. Wikoi! in his letter also says: ‘I had the plea- sure of meeting. in Paris, the Hon. Josiah Randall, of Philadelphia, and lately the counsel of Mr. Forrest, in bis suit for divorce . Randall stated to me that when the evidence of the servant against Mrs. Forrest was read to them in his office, prior te its publication, Mr. Forrest interrupted the reading ut that part which related to me, and said: ‘Gentlemen. I feel it due to say that Mr. Wikoff is the only person men- thoned in the evidence against whom | have no suspi- cion.’” In reference to this, I have only to say that Mr. Randall denies, in the most positive terms, hay- ing made any such remark as is attributed to him by Mr. Wikoff. To conclude, as Mr. Wikoff insinuates and evidently desires to create the impression that he was acting asthe old friend of Mr. Forrest in his attempt to withdraw Mrs. Forrest's difficulties from yublic observation, I will merely state that it is well own to many of Mr. Forr friends, that, at the time of Wiki re 8 activity in this matter, he had been utterly repudiated by Mr. Forrest, who had repeated- ly refused even to see him. When it is remembered that at that very time Wikoff was on the most inti- mate terms with Mrs, Forrest, it will be easy to decide whose friend he was, and iu whore interests he was most deeply concerned.

This is likely to lead toa great deal of dimeulty, and perhaps te litigation. In the event of an individual who purchased at twenty-four or twenty-five per cemt, insisting upon the, stook Doing transferred to his name before reeeiving it, the party baving the delivery to make would not be able to comply, andthe transaction may thus be rendered void. Such cases are likely to happen, and the bears may be placed in a very unpleasant predicament. This will, fmo doubt, deter many from operating in the stock any way. The depression in Norwich and Wor- cester bas been caused by the announcement that « competition line of boats is about being placed on the Stonington line, and that the through fare to Boston will be reduced to two dollars. We leara that this arrangement has been made in connection with the Btonington Railroad Company, This must seriously injure all the lines to Boston, and benefit no one bat the travelling public. Beading Railroad has drooped, in anticipation of the construction of new opposition lines, and a spirited competition from those now in operation. The coal business will, without doubt, be overdone this year. All the works connected with the ooal trade are prepared for an immense traffic, and prices for the raw material must beeome very much reduced. The enormous cost of the Reading railroai, places the company under many disadvantages in the struggle; and we do not see how it oan keep up its earnings to a point, sufficient to give even the smal- jest dividend. The Delaware and Hudson Canal Jom- pany have contracted to deliver oval in New York for $405 per ton. The Schuylkill NavigationCompany open theseason of navigationjwith facilities for transporting almost any quantity of coal. The Lehigh Censl and the Morris Canal, have enlarged their capacity for carrying. The Chesapeake and Uhio Canal will bring down nearly half a million tons of ceal,and we are Ukely to have a supply so much in excess of the de- mand, that prices must come down to the lowest level, below, we fear, remunerating points to the miners. It 6 our impregsion, that the approaching season will prove ruinous te the mining interest generally, and all works of internal improvement cennected with that interest, must be similarly affected. Harlem is very firmly maintained, and it is in fact the only rail- road steck on the list, of its class, the prospects of which are clear and unclouded. It is out of the reach of competition, and it is the only road connected with this city, extending into its very centre, having such a monopoly of the immense city travel along its line. At present prices it isa very cheap stock, and what ever fluctuations may take place in ite market value, the actual value of shares and the sure and steady progress of the work, cannot be affected in the slight- est degree. Portsmouth Dry Dock Company improved to-day upon the opening, and was well sustained. ‘There was considevable activity to-dayin government, State stocks, and railroad bonds. ‘The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port to-day, amounted to $108,080. Paymente: $99,915 42. Balance, $3,723,097 66. The annexed statement gives the names of some of the applications, with the amount of each, for loans, now on or about being put on this market.
