THE LATEST NEWS. INTERESTING FROM WASHINGTON. Proposed Modifications of the Tariff pj ns of the Thirty-Million Bill—Fate of the Pacific Railroad Bul, &e., &c. OUR SPECIAL WASHINGTON DESPALCA. Wastrxoroy, Jan. 28, 1859. ‘The Committee on Ways and Means met again to-day, ‘put came to no decision, and adjourned till Tuesday. The two important propositions before the committee are those of Mr. Phelps, the Chairman, and Mr. Phillips, of Pennsylvania. The bill advocated by Mr. Morrill is thrown out more as a republican stand point than from any expectation it can be passed. It is really a high pro- tective tariff bili, the republicans desiring to array them- selves in the old clothes of the defunct whig party. Be- jow you have a synopsis of Phelps’ and Phillips’ bills. If acompromise cannot be effected between the two, the impression prevails that the tariff bill of 1846 may be bodily re-enacted, or, failing that, everything will go by the board, and an extra session rendered inevitable, which is now the most probable. Messrs. Letcher, Dow- dell and Crawford oppose all change and advocate an ad. ditional loan, which, with the Treasury notes, would amount to thirty millions. This cannot carry. The state- ment that Secretary Cobb is opposed to a change in the tariff, aud in favor of the position assumed by Letcher, i not true. The resolution from the Committee on Ways and Mean to-day, cailing on the Secretary to know if he considers the probable receipts from the sales of public lands and customs will be sufficient to meet the expenses of the government, will, it is understood, bring a response showing the necessity of a modification of the tariff or a Joan. Mr. Phelps prefers to receive and continue in force till the 1st of January, 1861, the act of the last session authorising the issue and re-issue of treasury notes, but, under the decision of the committee, js compelled to unite with bis Tarif bill a loan. This the committee has de- cided shall be twenty-one millions. Mr. Phelps proposes to impose a daty of fifty per cent ad valorem ou brandies, spirits and cordials, the articles specified in the one hundred per cent schedule of 1846, To the thirty per cent schedule he pro- poses to transfer all kinds of spices and dried fruits, embroideries of gold and silver, certain manufactures of furs, toys, epaulettes, artificial lowers and feathers. ‘The twenty-four per cent schedule he makes twenty-five per cent; the nineteen per cent twenty per cent; the twelve per cent he places in the fifteen per cent schedule; and the eight transfers to the ten per cent, and the four por cent to the five per cent; adopting in this respect the recommendation of the Secretary of the Treasury, Manu- factures of silk generally, of wool except blankets, flan- nels, baizes and bockings, which in the twenty por cent, he places in the twenty-five per cent schedule, as well as iron. The greater part of these articles are in the first twenty-four per cent schedule. In the twenty per cent schedule he transfers from lower schedule foreign fish, furs dressed on the skin, paints, leather and lead. Manufactures of hemp and flax generally, all manufac- tures of cotton, oils and window glass go to the fifteen per cont schedule. Besides the transfer to this of the twelvo per cent schedule, he transfers from lower schedules flax, gums and resins, tin in plates, cabmet woods unmanu- factured, and woods of all kinds. To the ten per cent schedcle he transfers several articles from the five per cent schedule and from the free list, and tothe five per cent schedule he also transfers other articles from the free Liat. ‘This plan would have increased the revenue on last year’s import more than six millions. It is not protective, It will not cause importsjto be diminished, and will afford ample revenue to meet the ordinary expenses of the go- ‘vernment and pay off the twenty million treasury notes. ‘Tho five sections of Mr. Phillips’ bill provide for a loan of twenty-one millions, at six per cent, to pay off the out- standing treasury notes irredoeemable before two years, but due and payable in six years from July next. The other sections provide for a change in the tarifffrom July 1859, upon the basis of the act of 1846, with these ‘changes:—The hundred per cent schedule of 1846 is re- duced to fifty per cent, the forty to thirty-six, the thirty, twenty-five, twenty and fifteen per cent schedules, to re- main, whilst the five and ten per cents are placed at eight. All manufactures of silk and linen are put on the same footing as cotton and woollen, and in the thirty per cent schedule. The free list of 1857 is unchanged, with the ex- ception ot one or two articles placed on the specific list and raw wool is free only up to sixteen cents. Tue principal articles placed on the specific list are:— Jron, bar, round, square and flat, within specified dimen sions, sixteen dollars a ton; chains, cables, anchors, an- vils, hoops, wheel tires, twenty-five dollars a ton; pig, ‘old and scrap, six dollars a ton. Manufacturers of iron not otherwise provided for, twenty dollars a ton. Steel in bars, shear or German, forty-five dollars a ton. Tin in pigs and bars, eight cents a pound, Zine in sheets, a cent anda half per pound. White sugar two cents. Refined sugar three cents, and other kinds of sugar one cent and a quarter per pound. Molasses six cents a gallon. Brandy one dollar per gallon. Whiskey, gin, and all spirits dis- tilled from grain, fifty cents per gallon. Fruits and spices ‘various specific daties, from three cents to twenty cents a pound. Coal ove dollar a ton, Hemp forty dollars a ton, &c. It is provided that the Jaw shall go into effect on the Ist of July, and all goods then in warehouse to be subject to the new duty. The Thirty Million Cuba bill will pass the Senate, but it will meet with the most strenuous opposition on the part of the republicans. Seward’s speech is spoken of by them as not emphatic enough. A protracted debate will take place next week. In the House it is impossible yet to de- termine how strong the opposition will be, but the republi- cans boast they can kill it there. From a careful inquiry, I learn that the following Senators will vote for the bill:— Messrs. Alien, Bayard, Benjamin, Bigler, Bright, Brode- rick, Brown, Chesnut, Clay, Clingman, Davis, Dougias, Fitch, Fitzpatrick, Green, Gwin, Houston, Iverson, John- son of Arkansas, Jones, Mallory, Polk, Pugh, Reid, Rice, Sebastian, Shields, Slidell, Thomson of New Jersey, ‘Toombs, Ward, Wright and Yulec. Doubtful, Messrs. Hunter, Mason and Stuart. On motion of Mr. Taylor, the memorials fora line of ‘steamers to South America, Brazil and Chile, were yester- day referred tothe Committee on Commerce upon a re- consideration. Through a misapprehension on Tuesday the House refused this motion, but the mistake is now corrected, The Committee on Commerce will speedily report in favor of them. ‘The Pacific Railroad bill is dead for this Congress. It is not believed any effort will be made to press it on the House. The statement that Mr. Barksdale expreesed himself in favor of reopening the slave trade does that gentleman in- justice. He made no such declaration. His position was that the President was compelled to send back the blacks captured on the Echo to the place where they came feom and not to Liberia. Thero is quite a railroad lobby here just now. Dean Richmond, Farmer Abel, and the company of lobbyites who frequent Albany under their lead, and Thurlow ais fall of army officers. It looks as if Wash- inglon was beseiged, Perhaps the Secretary of War knows what these gentlemen are doing away from their posts, THR GENERAL, NEWSPAPER DESPATCH Wasinctox, Jam, 28, 1859, ‘Tho tariff bill of Mr. Phelps, of Missouri, fully meets the views of Secretary Cobb, who believes it will yield more revenue and be less protective than the tariff of 1867. ‘Statements bave been made by certain parties, on which newspaper paragraphs have been predicated Creaseyol duties Is necessary; but it is asce Secretary Cobb thinks otherwise, and so does the Presi dent. Ii is estimated that the rates in Mr. Phelps’ bill ‘would have increased the revenues on the past year’s im- Portations about six and a half miilions of dollars. ‘The reply of the Secretary of thy Treasury to the inqui ry made of him by the House will doubtless be that th» r from the customs and public lands for the nex fiscal year will not be sufficient to meet the expenses o ‘tho government.

General Miramon Declines the Presidency— The French and English About to Take Possession of Vera Cruz and Tampico— Movements of the Belligerent Forces, &c. New ORLEANS, Jan. 28, 1859. The steamship Tennessee has arrived here with Vera Cruz dates of the 24sh inst. ‘The dates from the city are to the 19th inst. General Fries and Admiral Zernan are passengers by the Tennessec. ‘The Spanish fleet left Sacrificios on the 20th inst., for Havana, The French and English fleets were at Sacrificios.. The Progreso quotes as rumor thatan American ves- sel-of-war had threatened to blockade and bombard Ma- zatlan for conflacating the cargo of an American merchant- man, by order of the church party. The Pensiamento—General Miramon’s organ at Guada- lajara—states that he (Miramon) will not accept of the presidency nor favor Robles, but adhere to the Zuloaga Plan. General Miramon was marching on the capital. He had ordered a forced loan of $600,000 at Guadalajara, in- cluding foreigners, who paid under a threat of expulsion. The press of the City of Mexico state that the French and English Ministers had notified the government that unless a million of dollars was paid to satisfy the claims of French and English subjects within six days, the fleets of those countries would take possession of Vera Cruz and Tampico. The statement was discredited, General Degallado was at Morelia. The government palace at Guadalajara was destroyed ‘on the 10th by the explosion of the magazine, just after Miramon left it for the capital. From one hundred to two hundred persons were killed, and terrible consternation caused thereby. ~ ‘The liberals have taken Mazatlan. Casmano had fallen back on Yantepec. Blaco and Coronado, with 3,000 men, were before Zacatecas, and Miramon had sent 600 men to its assistance, but it was thought the garrison would be obliged to sur- render. Miramon declared vehemently against the Robles Plan previous to his (Miramon’s) election to the Precidency, but bas been silent since that event. Robles was still presiding, and was backed by the capi talbsts, and on friendly terms with Miramon. It is said that if Miramon declares tor Zuloaga, Robles will join the Uberals, The English and French admirals have m: and threatening demand on Juarez for promp the English bonds. General Traconis had been released by Lobles, after a year’s imprisonment at the capital, and it was reported would be placed in command at Vera Cruz.

The Custom House in a Ferment. The news in the special telegraphic despatch from ‘Washington which appeared in yesterday’s Heraup, announcing Mr. Cobb's proposed measure for the decapitation of numbers of New York Custom House ofti- cials as no longer necessary, and for the cutting down of the salaries of the officers retained, in order to etfect a re- trenchment in this branch of the public service, has fallen like a bombshell in Pine street, scattering dismay and confusion all around. No man deems himeelf safe any longer, from the Deputy Collector down to the porter. As the clerks assembled in the Collector's department, and interchanged salutes with long faces, indicative of bad tidings, the first question was, ‘Have you read the news in the Herat?” “Yes,”’ was the reply,” ‘and Cobb is making a d—d fool, a Judy Fitzsimmons of himself 1"? “i agree with you,” interpolates another; “he will never be able to carry that out in God’s world. He has no power to de it without an act of Congress, and that is not on the cards.” ‘Pardon me,” says a fourth, ‘it is perfectly within his power; he can clear outs this Custom .House without refer ring to Congress, The only men who are safe are the outsiders: the weighers, measurers and inspectors, whose offices have been created by act of Congress, and whose salaries are fixed and cannot be diminished unless by the same power.’’ ‘What the devil is the dunderhead about?’ ejaculates the fifth; ‘he will only kill himself, Does he imagine that the members from New York, or the members from every State in the Union, who have their friends and favorites here, will permit this slaughter?’ The gentlemen then put their heads to- gether, and waiting on Mr. Searing, M C., urged him to write to Messrs. Cochrane, Maclay, Barr, Sickles, &c., which Mr. Searing promised to do, aud we believe did do, having himself a very considerable interest ia the matter. In the Surveyor’s office and the Barge office, where the weighers and inspectors wait for orders, the subject was freely discussed by little groups of officers quite excited. | One said: “ Penny wise and pound foolish! not save on something cise?” time he has statted thia idea to make political capital out of, when ships with goods are coming in so fast that we have not enough of bands to discharge them, and the revenue is rising again to iis oid igure’ Had be done this a year ago, when we were all die, thore might be some excuse for him; but now it is absurd.

A BLACKWELL'S ISLAND FEKAY BOAT KUN OVER BY SHE STKAMBOAT SYLVAN SHORE—TUREK M DKOWNED, About twenty minutes past six o'clock yesterday morn ing a dreadful accident occurred on tho East river, ue Blackwell's Island, by which three persons lost th lives, caused by the New York and Harlem steamboat Sylvan Shore rvaning into one of the yawl ferry boats plying between Blackw! New York. The Syivan Shore left Harlem for this c at six o'clock A.M. At that hour it was dark and fozyy. After the boat left her dock she proceeded at siow speed, with her engine working with the throt tle valve close shut off. The officers of the boat kept a bright look out, and occasionally cause the alarm whistle to be biown, When the Syivan Shor: was nearing Sixty first street the pilot discovered a sin+ bout loaded with passengers directly in the traok of the steamer; he at ouce rang the bell for the enginrer 10 back, at the same time ballooing to the men in the boat to keep bark; but before the headway of the steamdoa could be checked the two cratts came into collision, tie steamer striking the yaw! boat near its stern, crusiing it in erait, and prectpltating all hands into the river. The boat contained ton persous, three of whom were carried under the wheels of the steamer and were drowned. The remainder were saved, owing to the great exertions of the steamboat hands. ‘The following are the names of the drowned: — Michael Grabam, coxswai Thomas Lee, laborer. Danio! Mahoney, taborer, ‘The following named persons were on board the ferry- boat at the time of the coilisiou, aud were picked up by the Sylvan Shore:— Samuel Reynolds, Deputy Superintendent of the Work- house. James Noonan, one of the keepers of the prison Joba Dunn, William Gilleepic, John McFarland. . Daniei Mahouey. Edward Donelly, David Mahoney. None of the bouies of the drowned have been recovered. Michael Graham, the coxswain, who is among the |, drowned, was considered an expert in his business, and was much beloved by his fellow workmen.
