PROPERTY SEIZED FOR FRAUDS ON THE REVENUR, ©n motion of Mr. Brains, (rep.) of Me., the Secretary of the Treasury was directed to furnish information as % the amount of property seized for frauds on the revenue, the amount realized therefrom, the status of penalng suits, &c, TREASURY AGENTS, Mr. Pixs, (rep.), of Me., asked leave to offer a resolu- tion directing the Secretary of the Treasury to rej immediately why he bas made no reply to the House vesohation of November 21, 1867, relative to the employ- ment of detectives, special agents and special inspectors. Mr. Hotmax, (dem.) of Ind., objected on the ground ‘that the Secretary had not had sufficient time to answer that inquiry. WITHDRAWAL BY OW10 OF HER RATIFICATION OF THE CON- SMITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, Mr. Ecourston, (rep.) of Ohio, presented the joint Tesolution of the General Assembly of the State of Ohio withdrawing the ratification of that State to the consti- tutional amendment, refusing the same and requesting the President of the United States, the presiding officer of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives to return to the Governor of Obio all papers on file with either giving the assent of the State of Ohio to such proposed amendment of the constitution. The joint resolution baving been read in full, Mr, Eggleston moved that the resolution be printed and referred to the Judiciary Committee, He said it was doubtful whether the parties called on for such papers bad a right to return them to the Governor of Ohio. He also desired so say ip the same connection that the Legislature of Obie, ip passing such a joint resolution, had gone against Abe wishes of the people of that State; that there bad been recently an election in one of the Congressional aistricts there where that imiquity had beon presented before the people, and that the result of the election ‘was partly owing to the action of the Legislature. Mr. Wasnuvrns, (rep.) of Ill, suggested to Mr. Eg- giestom that he modity his motion so as to in- struet the Judiciary Committee to report on the ques- tion of law whether a State had a right to withdraw its assent. Mr, Eacussto adopted the suggestion, and modified the motion accordingly. He then moved the previous qvestion, naif, Stevens, (rep.) of Pa., then arose to address the nee, The Srraxen asked Mr, Eggleston whether ho with- @rew the previous question to allow the gentleman from Peansy ia Lo make a remark. Mr. EaGuxston declined, saying it was not necessary to'spenk on the question, a8 the resolutions spoke for themselves. Mr. Stavins said he rose to a question of order, Ho did not know whether it was io iate to object to the reception of the papor. ‘The SPEAKER said that it was too late, It had not only been rece:ved by unanimous consent, but its reading had been ordered by unanimous consent. The motion was then agreed to—yeas 110, nays 34. MILITARY ACADEMY APPROPRIATION HILL, Mr.+ Wasasurne, of Ill, from the Committee on Approp reported the Military Academy Appro- priation bill (appropriating $303,000), which was ordered ‘2 be printed. The bill was then referred to the Com- mittee of the Whole on the State of the Union, and made the special order for Monday next. ‘THE LAWRENCE (KANSAS) MASSACRE, Op motion of Mr. Crarke, (rep.) of Kansas, the Com- mittee on Invalid Pensions was instructed to inquire into the expediency of placing the widows and children of the then who were kilied in the Lawrence massacre in August, 1863, in the same rejation to the pension jaws as if the men had been killed in the service of the United Staves, THE FREADMEN’S BUREAU. Mr, Ewor, ) of Mass., from the Committee on men's reported # bill to continue the Freedman’s Bureau, which was erdered to be printed, and recommitted. The first section provides for the continuance of the Bureau tor one year after July 16, 1808. The second section directs the Secretary of War to withdraw the Bureau from the States represented in Congrese, uniess, after consultation with the Commis. sioner, and upon bi! exumination, be is satistied Ubat it should be tinued; provided that the educational provision shall not be affected until a suitable arrangement is made within the State for we education of the children of the freedinon, The third section permits the Commissioner to apply unexpended balances not required for the ave execution of the for educational purposer, ‘to be subject to provisions of the law applicable thereto. The fourth section permits the oilicers of the Veteran Reverve corps, or the volunteer service on duty under ‘she Commissioner, who bave been or may be mustered out of service, to be retained on duty when requirod for the proper execution of the law, with the same compensa- ion and authority as now conferred by law on officers of tue Bureau of the samo grade.§ KENTUCKY CONTHSTED KLBCTION CABK ‘The House then proceeded to the consideration of the Keptucky election case trom the Second Congressional District. The Committee on Elections reports three reso- tions, a8 follows ;— First—That John Young Brown, having voluntarily given aid, countenance, counsel and encouragement to pernons faged in armed hostility against the United States, 18 not eniitied to the oath of oflice as a Representative ‘in this House from the Second Congressional district of Kentucky, ar to hold a seat therein as such representa’ Sccond—That Samuel E, Smith, not bavi rity of the voles cast for Representats from the Second Congressional District of entitied lo a seat therein Third—That the Speaker erno tion of this House from the Secoud Congression: entuck: received a ma- in this House ntucky, i# not uch representative, be directed to notify the Gov- Kentucky that a vacancy exists in the representa. istrict 8 Oa motion of Mr. Dawrs, (rep.) of Mass,, chairman of the Commuittee on Evections, it was ordered that the ree solutions be discussed aud considered separately. Mr. Dawes then addressed the House in support of ‘the first resolatien, explaining the facts on which tt was based. The main and sole evidence against Mr. Brown as hie having writes, on his own admission, a letter ated April 18, 1561, and published the Louisville Courier May 16, 1861, correcting a report of his remarks ata public meeting, as publisned in that paper, and saying that what he did say was this:—“‘Not one mp or one dollar will Kencucky furvish Lincoln to ard in his unboly war against the South. If this Northera army shall attempt to cross our borders wo will resist it unto the death, and if one man sball be found in our Commonwealth who shall join them he ought to be, and I believe will be, shot down before he leaves the Sieve.” Mr. Dawes explained that the defence of Mr. Brown was that at the time when that letter was written Kentucky bad as- sumed the pofition of neutrality between the Caited ‘States and those engaged in armed hostility thereto, and = the very best Union men of Kentucky had assumed position, and bad jsought to bring the State into ‘that position as the very best means of saving it from being drawn into the vortex of the rebellion. The com- mittee had given to that cousideration all the weight it ‘was ontitied to, but yet it had come to the conclusion that no other constriction could be given to the letter than its natoral tone. The committee could not regard the letter as written in any neutral sense, for there was in it no word of condemnation of the Southern army. ‘The very idea of neutrality was taken from \t by a pre- ceding paragraph, in which Brown said to the editors of the ville Courier, “This ambiguous report of my remarks has, I find, been misunderstood by some who have read it, who construe my iaoguage to apply to the government of the Coutederate States,’ THE COITON TAX pILt, Pending the discussion, Mr. Autimox, (rop.) of Town, made a report from the Couference Committee on tho Cotton Tax bill, the amendment agreed upon being the addition of the foliowing clause :—“And cotton imported froua foreign countries on and after November 1, 1868, shat! be exempt from duty.” Bi a brief history of the vill and of the various attempts to reconc flicting Tiews of both bouses on the subject tbat tie conference cummitive ou the part of the House id not feel that i: could take the responsibility of d steoying the bill; for i: was palpably evident that this being the third Conferonco Committee, unless it could agree the Senaie would not consent to any further con- ference. This tas the very best proposition that could be obtained, Wuder it the American producer of cotton would not have the protection be now has (equal te one and a.halfeent per pound), it was deemed important by the committee that the tax be removed so as to en- cou the growth of cotton in 126%, and therefore the report mas agreed ta, but with tig understanding on the part of the Rouge conferees th® when ihe question of terifl came up fof adjustment at this session the whote subject could be reviewed. The conferces had, therefore, been reluctantiy compelled to assent to thi* proposition. Brooxs, dem.) of N, asked Mr. Ailison whether the House was to take this bill or nothing?

He wi seaboard and all the East wno are ture to take care lest they opened a sluiceway, which would iptroduce conseq! they did not intend. If they opened up this question in reference materiais uced in the interior of the country and in the South they must not be surprised if hereafter just the same of favor extended to the productions of the West and of the South should be measured to themselves, If nothing else than this bill could be got frem the Senate, perhaps the House should agree to the report of the Conference Committee, {t would be at Jeast a great thing to relieve the cotton producing in- terest of the country. If the and House should hot agree to this bill he trusted the time was not far distant—not a great many days or weeks—when the Committee of Ways and Means would report a general Dill for the revision of the internal tax into which a re- mission of the cotton tax could be introduced. If that should be done, and if there were an attempt to engraft upon that bill such a provision as this, he did not know how far that principle might go before they got through. Mr. Bains called the attention of the House to the faet that while the House was by a very large majority in favor of removing the cotton tax, the Senate was in favor of it, if at all, bya very close majority, Tne re- moval of the tax on imported cotton was carried in the Senate by the votes of the Senators from the Pacific States, who had got a little manufacturing interest growing up there from the importation of Mexican cot- ton, and who had made cific point that they must have that cotton free of dut ere were five or six Senators coming under that clasa, and if the condiuions in the bill were not agreed to the bill could not pass the Senate at all, Those Senators standing right at the gate- way and holding the balance of power would defeat the bili unless their terms were agreed to, It was for the House, therefore, to consider whether it would submit to what it regarded as ap justice, and trust to the future revision of the tariff to reinstate a email tax on imported cotton, and whether it would bo as stubborn as the Senate, and let the whole bill die. For himself, opposed as he was to re] ing the tariff on cotton, he considered the question of repealing the in- ternal tax tobe of much greater and more immediate consequence, and, therefore, finding the Senate thus minded, and finding it al nrg § under the control of the local Pacific interest, he nad felt bound in the con- ference to yreld the point’ Roferring to the remarks of Mr. Schenck, be said be did not think that gontieman was justified in making itan Eastern interest. He did not consider there was any Eastern interest involved, or that there was anything like a unanimity of opinion among Eastera, mea upon the tariff question. Mr, Scaenck remarked that be always thought the gentieman (Mr. Blaine) had come from 60 far East as to be almost West, and he knew the liberality of bis views on matters of this kind. He (Mr. Schenck) had never befére heard of the Mexican cotton. Mr. Pike expressed the hope that the House would stand on its dignity and adhere to its position. If the Dili thereby failed, that would be a most oxcellent result, “ Mr. Buave remarked that his colleague ought to state that he was against the couton tax being taken off, Mr. Prxe continued to argue that if tho bil! did fail then the question would go where it ought to go, into the generai bill. He hoped there would be no special Jegwiation 10 favor of cotton or any other interest, If the chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means (\ir. Schenck) intended his remarke as threats of free trade, then he would say to him that he did not favor free vrade to its utmost extent, if that was to be established as the policy of the country. Mr. ScneNck denied that he had made any threats of free trade. Hoe had only given warning of what would be the consequence of opening tho door for certain leg- islation. (yt it was an implied throat in Mr. Puse considered tho tine of free trade, Mr, Sctenck said it was only an implied threat of the consequences following such legislation, and he left tue House to decide whether he had not fairly iilustrated his views. Mr. Maynarp, (rep) of Tenn., considered the attempt to fasten this condition on the bill so unjust that ho could not give his consent to it, Mr. Covone, (rep.) of Pa., declared his conviction that this was not the time to pass this measure, He had always seen that in doubtful measures it was best to postpone action for a time, This bill proposed a double bonus to a certhin class of manufacturers—first, the re- moval of the internal tax of two andabalf centsa pound on Cotton, and then the removal of the tari. He was satisfied that the measure should not pass except in a general bill, and in saying 0 he spoke both as a cotton buyer and cotton manufacturer, Mr. Moonnean, (rep.) of Pa, hoped the House would not yield, but would stand firmly where it had stood‘all the time, Mr. Keiter, (rep.) of Pa., thought the action of the Senate very ijadicious, if not absolutely improper; but so important was the repeal of tue cotton tax now that he would yield to the imperative demand of ine & fe and vote for the conference report, Mr. Atison, (rep.) of Iowa, closed the debate, and said that the only reason why he believed there should be a sinall tariff duty on cotton was that some revenue should be derived from it. That questiou, however, could be adjusted hereafter. Tuis removal of the tariif on cotton was only to commence on the Ist of Novem- ber, 1863, so that Congress would have another oppor- tunity of testing the question. It was for that reason he had assented to the conference report, The question was taken by yeas and conference report was adopted—yens 104, The bill now goos to the President.

ALMOST ANOTHER ANGOLA DISASTER. Serious Accident on the Pennsylvania Rail- road—Four Cars Thrown Down an Embank- ment—One of Them Burned—One Person Killed and Several Injured. {From the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Jan. 31.) Harrisevna, Jan. 81, 1868, A serious accident occurred about two o’clock this morning on the Pennsyivania owing to the breaking of a rail. The fast line coming which left Pittsburg at twenty minutes past seven last.evening, had reached MfMl creek, 156 miles east of Pittsburg, when, owing to the cause above stated, the last four cars were thrown from the track, Two of them were sleeping cars, one destined for New York by way of Allentown, and one destined for Philadelphia, Immediately upon leaving the track they were. over- torned down an embankment and caught fire. Both of the sleeping cars and one of the ordinary passenger cars were consumed. The loss of ife was confined to one woman, who appears to have been killed by the accident and was afterwards ‘ily burned. One other woman was injured, but, it 1s believed, not dangerously, and several men were slightly burned, The train consisted of eight cars, and thoy contained but Sixty-seven pas- songere, which may partially account forthe smal! loss of life, The locomotive and first four cars remained upon the track, and after the accident resumed their way éast with the passengers, The remains of the dead were carefully coffined, and the injuries of the wounded wore attended to at Mifflin by Dre Miller, of Harrisburg, who was immediately despatched to the scene of the disas- ter by Superintendent Black. ‘There is reason to believe that the train broke a rail in passing over it. It was running at ordi- nary speed, having ived special instructions at @ station which: it had passed six miles not to make up any time. It was about thirty minutes late and was in charge of conductor Chase. The sudden change in the weather yesterday and the intensity of the cold made the iron brittle and no amount of care could prevent the breaking of rails, To guard against this the whole oat is divided into sec- tons and patrolled by watcamen both day and night. The remainder of the train with the rest of the pas- sengers arrived at Harrisburg at ten o'clock this morn- ing The name of the only person killed is Mrs. Anna Duggen, late of No, 167 Pennsy!vania avenue, Pittsburg. The busband of this woman and her brother, togeth with Patrick Hughes and a party, were on their way California, The husband had his hands and face slightly burned. ‘The rest of the party escaped, The following are injured, but Dr. Rutherford, of Harrisburg, reports none of ‘their injuries dangerous, being principaily painful bruises but no bones broken. Some of them design resuming their journey imme- diately :+Mrs, Georgia Adams, Philede!phia; J. Mansen, Indianapolis; Mrs, Mary Crouse, Kansas; ' W. Wickel, New York; Herbert Noonson, Jr., Philadelphia; W. W. Powell, New Jersey; L. Chase, Michigan; Mrs, Genoral Rodman and daughter, Iilinois; J. Busser, Lancaster, The first rail which broke was broken in half and the next one into five pleces, showinc that the track had been in perfect condition until the passage of the loco- motive and the first four cars over it, A Painrut Mystery.—On the 3d of July lastan Eng- Jisuman named Wilham May, residing in Freebold, War- ren county, left his home with the intention of visiting Titusville and Pithole and returning home by way of Warren, where he was to pay a debt.of $700. He bad the money in his possession, and was seen in the after- noon of the same day at Corry, but can be traced no further, and bas not since been heard of. Yesterday Mr. A. Bush, of Freehold, a son-in-law of the missing man, arrived here, be having heard arumor to the effect that a dead body had beea found under a barn in this vicinity and identified as that of May from papers found in his pocket.

It Is by the unereing test of thelr effects upon the sick and afticted that their value as medicines is definitely determined, THE CURES OF THE GETTYSBURG WATER, The medicinal virtues of the Gettysburg Water are so vortons, so extraordinary even as compared with those of the great springs of the Old and New Worlds, that we have’ deemed it due to ourselves and to the medical pub ic to have the facts which evidence them verified, not only by the statements of invalids and their medieal advisers, but by the corroborative testimony of physicians of high reputa- tion. some of whom have made the study and application Of medicinal waters a specialty. Xn securin.,” however, the highest testimony tn regard to the curative effects of fhe Gettysburg Water, we have deemed it proper to state some facts which have fallen under our own Observation, on our own authority, but without soliciting or expecting credence for our statements further than they may appear reasonable and deserving, * A distinguished American physician, whose aitention has been directed to the astonishing curative phenomena pre- sented by the Gettysburg Water is John Bell, M.

It is that of impotence, associated with a terrible and distressing kidney and urinary disease.

For if the spring at Gettysburg does not cure barrenness in females (of which fact we have as yet no ingtance) it does cure its kin- dred infirmity, impotence, as certified by Dr. Shearer and by numerous sufferers from this distressing and alarming. ly-inereasing affliction, It enjovs a local reputation for this yirtae, and for renewing conatitations and thelr natural oes.
