Fight in the Senate.

•5 We learn- from the Indianapolis Jmirna I •of yesterday, that the Senate of State, was ^disgraced on last Tuesday morning, about 10 o'clock, by a fight between Mr. Hefif/rcn, the Senator from Washington and Jlr. Gooding, Senator of Hancock county. They are both good democrats, and it appears got in to a fight mostly through jealousy. Each fearing the other would get more"than his portion of glory. Heffren it appears got the worst of the fight and from our observation of his acts during tho session, we think he truly deserved all he received, and more too. Lay on Gooding, ami &c., bo ho who first cries, hold enough

U. S. Senate—Lnne and McCnrty. It will be seen from the following news, which we clip from tho Cincinnati Gazette, of Tuesday, 15th, that the United Senate, has finally had action on the case of Messrs. Lane and McCarty, tho legally elected Senators of the State of Indiana and that tlict body has declared emphatically, that "my will," aad not the will of the people, shall be done. They unquestionably knew their duty—that Bright and Fitch should be ousted—but were afraid of duty therefore, voted to retain these usurpers in power, regardless of the wishes of the people of this State. This every one should Save looked for. The idea of the United States Senate repudiating her own worlcs, though known to be wrong, never ought to have been expected. This offence is but trifling compared with many, that have been frowned down in like manner. The work of corruption, of rule and ruin, will invariably be carried out and the will of the people disregarded. The administration, and her followers must be sustained:

The case of the Indiana Senators camo up, and was debated for several hours.— The debate, which was mainly confined to the legal gentlemen of the Senate, was highly inteiesting, but turned so much on the legal and constitutional points involved, that it is impossible within the limits of a telegraphic despatch to convey even an outline. .« .. W

Messrs. Seward, Fessenden, Harlan, Cailamer and others on tho Republican side, and Messrs. Bayard, Green, Benjamin, Pugh and others against the contestants, delivered their opinions regarding the case..

Mr. Seward referred to Mr Benton's expunging resolution, and said, as the resolution to-day would not certainly be carried, he would inovo every year, while in Congress, and perhaps some one will move it when he is gone, till it be carried, that the resolution of the Senate of June 12, 1858, le in the year 18—, expunged from the records of the Senate.

Mr. Harlan moved an amendment, that the Indiana case, with all the papers, be iccommitted to the Judiciary Committee, with instructions to inquire if Messrs. Bright ahd Fitch hare been elected in accordance with the Constitution of the State of-Indiana, and that the contestants be allowed to appear at the bar of the Senate to*argue"their right to seats.

Mr. Pugh moved an amendment to Mr. Harlan's motion, to the effect that the revolt of the Judiciary Committee, declaring Messrs. Bright and Fitch' as the only legally elected Senators from Indiana, be sustained, and that the vote of tho Senate be final in-tbe case.

Mr. Harlan's motion was lost, and Mr. Pugh's adopted. The Judiciary Committee's report was sustained, and the Committee discharged from all farther consideration of the subject, respectively, 32yeas againsH nays SGyeas against 15 nays 2& yeas rgainst 10 nays, and 30 yeas agarast 15 nays.

On one side, tbe nays were: Messrs. Bayard, Benjamin, Bigler, Broderick, Brown, Chestnut, Clay, Clingman, Davis, Green, Gwin, Houston, Hunter, Iverson,. Johnson of Ark., Johnson of Tenn., Jones Ktnnedy, Lane, Mallory, Mason, Polk, ...Pugh, Reid, Rice, Shields, Slideli, Smith,

Stuait, Toombs, Wade and Yulec. On the other side tho yeas were Messrs. Cameron, Chandler, Clark, Collamer, Bool it tie, Douglas, Fessenden, Foot, Hamlin, Harlan, King, Seward, Trumbull and Wilson.

Paired off—Dixon with Wright, Duikee with Sebastian, Hale with Thompson of New Jersey, Simmons with Alien, Wade with Yulee, Foster with Pearce, Bell with Hammond Messrs. Bright and Fitch not voting.

Suicide—Another Victim to the Retail Liquor Traffic. On Wednesday morning of this week, Feb. 16th, Mart in Vanhook residing with--in a mile of Crawfordsville, committed suicido by hanging himself in his own barn. For many years he has been addicted to intemperance, and for several days previous to his death, had been drinking very hard. Ho had accumulated a largo property, and owned a very superior farm. As a neighbor he was kind and obliging as a husband and fathor, when sober, very gentle and affectionate and but for his intemperate habits would have been a man of usefulness and" influence in the community. But the appetite for liquor had seized upon him and held him captive. For this he would sacrifice every earthly blessing and comfort yea, even life itself. The prayers and tears of a devoted wife, the pleadings and earnest solicitations of affectionate children, the entreaties of friends, the considerations for health, happiness and life, kept him not from the fatal bowfj he drank and continued to diink until reason was dethroned, until his mind reeled in mad delirium, till the world seemed a blank and life a burden too grievons to be borne. He longed to quench and overcome the accursed thirst for liquor, but there were those, who knowing his appetite, would sell the poisoned stuff that they might gather into their own coffcrs a few dimes and dollars from his pockets. They sold to him knowing that he would drink till all command of self was gone they sold him that which caused him to take his own life. As well might they have sold a rope with the full knowledge that he would hang himself with it as well havo sold him a knife with which to empty the blood from hid own heart. The men who sold him liquor are partfceps criminis they are accessories to the murder the guilt of blood is deeper and darker on their skirts than on those of

Martin Vanhook. They maddened his brain and stimulated him to the commission of the act of self destruction. Fearful, doubly fearful is the responsibilities of those who sold him the intoxicating draught. The blood of the slain cries to Heaven for vcngeance on those who 6eek to continue tho murderous traffic. What arc the profits of the traffic when compared to the lives of such men as Martin Vanhook? He sleeps the sleep of death his spirit has gone to its final account, whither the liquor seller will soon follow.— What account Will he render and what will be Uia doom?

SECRETARY COBB.

Since the organization of our Government no Secretary of the Treasury has made a more signal failure than Mr. Cobb. Asa legislator, he had acquired a high reputation as an orator ho was somewhat distinguished as a writer he was regarded among the best, especially in the South.—" But when he undertook to manage the Treasury department of the Government, his capacity failed him. Every proposition, every suggestion, every measure has proved abortive. He has emptied an overflowing treasury, made the Government a borrower, and is still involving the nation yet deeper in debt. His predecessor, Mr. Guthrie, was a man of financial ability success marked his entire course he left the Treasury full his measures were eminently successful, presenting a marked contrast to those of his successor. Mr. Cobb will never survive the disgrace which has settled upon his reputation as an officer of the Cabinet and his signal failure will dim the lustre of the reputation he had gained in other departments of labor.

JSrThe winter has been very destructive on the gravel side-walks around our town, and it is now almost impossible to step out of doors without getting over shoetop in mnd. During the spring, summer and fall, our citizens would do well to have from five to ten thousand loads of sand and gravel thrown upon the walks in different parts of town. Every man should see Ibat bis own walks are well repaired— elevated with sand above tegh water mark, so that in fnture our feet may be kept dry and onr health thus preserved. Let the work be commenced early in spring, and be continued at convenient times through the wh ole season. It will be a great gain both in health and comfort. Think about it fellow-citizens, and then act upon it.

EDUCATIONAL COLUMK.—In our next issue, we trill commence the publication of an educational column, which by an arrangement of the Teachers' Association, will be supplied from time to time, with original and selected articles upon that subject by S. L. KILBORJJ, Esq. All articles written for this department should be short and to the point, as we cannot devote more than the spaco specified, to that subject. We will insert this column on our first page, whenever we are supplied with such matter as we think will be of interest to our readers generally We however, expect to act as judge in the case,.

PHRENOLOGICAL.—G. W. Wagner, M. D.. gave ono of his interesting Phrenological Lectures, at the Court-House, last evening, to a large audience of both ladies and gentlemen. We understand it is the Doctors intention, should there be any proepect of encouragement from our citizens, to give a regular course of Lectures on the science of Phrenology, commencing, probably, the first of the coming week, at the Temperance Hall. He gives another free lecture at the Court-House to-night. Turn uut and hear him.

Tho Americans generally opposed the admission because a provision of the State Constitution allowed aliens to vote, and a number of Democrats, as will be seen by the list, such as Shorter of Ala., Woodson of Mo., Smith ofVa., and McQueen and Keitt of S. C., and others, opposed because it was a free State. The Republicans generally voted agaiast it* but all our delegation except Mr. Wilson voted for it. Without the Republican vote it would probably have failed, and we have no hesitation in saying that we wish it had failed, Those Democrats who carried the English exclusion bill, should havo been held right close to their doctrine, and been shown that it was just as necessary for Oregon to have 93,000 inhabitants with proslavery Senators, as that Kansas slio'd have that population with free State Senators. Oregon notoriously had not n:uch more than half the requisite population.— Joe Lane said otherwise, but Joe Lane is contradicted by a census taken since he was in the territory, and his word is poor authority for anything where his ambition is interested. Besides, those "Exclusion Democrats" would take nothing but a census for the population of Kansas, aud they should have been held to an equal consideration of the chances of exaggerating population in the case of Oregon. There is no reason why Kansas should submit to a census when Joe Lane's word is enough for Oregon. Oregon is a proslavery State really, whatever her Constitution may be, and she had no claim to preference over a free State that had been coaxed, and bribed for two years to come into the Union as a slave State, and would not. The matter is of no great consequence, especially as Kansas was not applying for admission, but as a chance to hold the slippery, twisting Democrats to a torturing adhesion to their own doctrines, it should not have been neglected.—Ind. Jour.

Important to Bondholders 'of Railroad Bouds* A bill in chancery was filed a few days since

?ifi'

the CiTfeuit. Cour^" of the:,United

State^Tor the Distiict of Michigan, byJESd\yard W. I^iinham. as' mortgagee (in trust for bond holders) of the Michigan Southern and Northece Indiana Itailroad Company, to* fenjoin Joseph E. Earl and the Sheriff of the cbunty of Branch from selling a large quantity of wood collected by Faid railroad company in their sheds and on their station ground at. Bronsou, in Branch county, for the Use of their engines, upon a judgment recoveied by Earl against said railroad company in the Circuit Court of that comity.

Tho mortgage, in terms, includes the railroad and its appurtenances, engines, cars, and all rolling- stock and personal property of the company which they possessed at the date of 'the mortgage, as well as all property to be afterwards acquired by it for the use and operation of. the road, &£. The mortgage was recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds in each of tho counties-through which the road passes. Notice of the application for the injunction was, by the direction of the court, given to the defendant, and yesterday was appointod for the hearing of the application.

The complainant appeared by his solicitor, A. M. Baker, Esq., and Hon. Warner Wing, and the defendants, Earl and the Sheriff, by T. Itomeyn, Esq. and on hearing the parties, his Honor Ross Wiikins. District Judge, ordered that an injimction i8*ue in the case, according to

the

prayer 6F the bilk The Judge, in. granting the order for injunction, conceded that the power of the company to pledge the franchise and property of the corporation implies as an incident thereto, the power to pledge everything that may be nesessary to the enjoyment of the franchise and road, and upon which its real value depends and that it, could not have" been intended by the Legislature merely to confer the power to pledge the naked track and franchise, which belonged to the corporation, without the right also to pledge such things its were incident and indispensable to its use and enjoyment, and without whi.ch it would be of no value.

The corporation was authorized to pledge not only the existing property of the road, bift tho corporate rights and franchises, and the railroad, itself as an entire thing. ...

The Judge hold, that to render such a pledge effectual, it was necessary it should embrace all such future acquisitions of the corporation as were proper accessories to the thing pledged, or essential to its enjoyment. Of what valuo would the railroad be without the cars on the road, or the fuel necessary to run them?

The bonds ol the company were redeemable in twenty years. New cars and engines and material of all kinds would from timo to time become necessary, and fuel would all the time have to be purchased a6 it was needod. The Judge held that these articles were included in the deed of mortgage, and, as the business of the road could not be carried on without them, the power to pledge the road itself, with profits and privileges, and the,rights and franchises of the corporation, carried along with it the implied authority to pledge all such fntilre acquisitions of t8b company as were necessary for the full and complete operation of this road itself.

This view of the case in accordance with tho opinions of the Supreme Court of New York, the Court of appeals of Kentucky, the Supreme Court'of New Hampshire, the Superior Court of Cincinnati, and of Judge McLean. The opinion of Judge Wilkins was not put on the ground tbat the mortgage covered the wood as personal property simply, but that, though not attached to the freehold as a fixture, it was nevertheless a necessary element of the road, as indispensable to.the use and enjoyment of the thing convoyed.—Detroit Free Press, Feb. 2d.

TEMRERANCE LEGISLATION.—The Senate has not yet acted definitely on Mansfied's Temperance bill. It will likely come up for final action to-day or to-morrow.— The House, last week, refused to order Carnahan's bill to a third reading. So far, very little has been done in the Senate toward making an affective law for the regulation of the liquor traffic. \lnd. State Journal.

Killed while Robbingllis own House. The Milwaukee Sentinel gives the following: "We learn that on Wednesday or Thursday night last, the Treasurer of the town of Erin, Washington county, whose name, we believe was Whaling, wa» shot dead while attempting to rob bis own bouse- It appears that he had collected some twelve or fifteen hundred dollars of the town taxes, and left borne in the afternoon, telling bis wife that

should be

gone all night. Toward evening a traveling peddler applied at the house for a jiight'q lodging. The wife at first refused to admit him, but finally yielded, '.vith much reluctance to his request. Some time in the night the peddler was awakened by the noise of men breaking into his own room. Taking them for robbers, he drew a pistol and fired at them. One fell and two fled. Lights beiug procured, the dead body of a man, with blackened face and otherwise disguised, was found upon the floor. Upon further examination it proved to bo tho proprietor of the house himself, who had lesorted to this stratagem to steal the tax money collected, and had met with this terrible retribution!"

AN" EXTENSIVE MEDICAL MENTDIES.

-THE SCANDINAVIAN REME-

A few days lSnce, we paid a visit to the'exteiisiye medieal laboratory of Dr. ROSACK, the well known fdundertofthe Scandinavian Sydtcm-of Practice, in this Country.

-Few

,pf our citizens

are aware of the extent of the sales of these remedies throughout the South and West, for the. diseases incidental to which sections, they appear to act almost as a Sovereign specific. For the benefit of our readers we will furnish a description of the premises.

The building appropriated to the preparation of the Scand inavian Remedies, is a very large and commodious tenement, fitted througout with a view to the speedy dispatch of business, which ia systematized, that its entire Operations move like clock-work. Entering upon, the first floor, the attention is attracted to a large -number of young persons seated at regular intervals, the entire length of the apartment, and all busily engaged in counting, boxing, wraping aud labeling the Blood Pills. We found here a most ingenious eontrivance for boxing the pills, it being so arranged that by a simple movement, some forty or fifty boxes are filled at the same time, all containing precisely the samo number of little round health restoratives. These boxes then move from hand to hand among the operatives, each of whom adds to its completeness, until it reaches the last, when they are neatly put up in bundles of a gross each, and ready for the markct.

Passing into tho basement of the building, a large and well ventilated apartment, we found ourselves surrounded by a large number of tanks, fitted up in an improred manner as filterers.— These tanks contained about 2,600 gallons of the Blood purifier, all in an f.ctive state of preparation. Here we saw any number of implements, of the name of which we arc ignorant, but all, we presume, used in the manufacture of the remedies. This department is under the exclusive control of the Doctor himself, who gives his personal Attention to the medieiaes in the different stages of their manufacture.

Another department we found used as drying room, whore, ranged upon shelves, wo saw what we would have supposed to be a sufficient quantity of pills to physic all creation. To our surprise however, we learned that his was less than a months supply, even at the rate of last year's sales, the present demand indicating a great increase on those of last year.

The third and fourth stones we found appropriated to packing, and oOntaining vast quantities of strange looking roots aud herbs, in their crude condition, and in a concentrated state, with machinery used for various purposes in properly and expeditiously carrying on the work of the laboratory.

From a conversation with tho gentleman who politely showed us through tho premises, we learned that not less than 3,500 agents are engaged in disposing of the Scandinavian Remedies in different portionh of the Union.

The Doctor is certainly a thorough-going business, as well as a scientific man. and he is determined that his remedies shall be, not only extensively circulated, but widely known, and to this end he extends hia advertising influence to over 470 newspapers. He allows no means to bo left untried, by which the World may know of the remedies he offers, and throughout the entire country hit Almanacs can be found, sent gratuitously through his agents, to all who may desire them. The number of these Alnanacs sent eut during the past year was about 480,000, all of which are gotten up neatly and filled with useful and interesting information, either compiled or composed by Dr. Roback, who among his other manifold duties, still has time for scientific researches in that quarter.

We do not entirely share in the popular delusion that all proprietory remedies are "Quack Medicines" for we can see no reason why medicines, the composition and effects of which have constituted the life study of those who have given their individual attention to them, should be so termed. Such remedies must be tried and judged according to their merits. We have ourselves tried the Dr's remedies for a certain hereditary disease, and the happy effect that they had in onr case, is the cause of this noticc. The Doctor is a man of great attainments, has traveled, not only extensively, but to some purpose, paying liberally for any information he might desire in regard to every quality of the ingredients used in the Scandinavian Remedies, in regard to the beneficial properties of which he is quite an enthusiast.

In regard to his establishment as we said before, it is systematizes! thoroughly in every department, and whenever the Doctors personal attentionii not needed it is superintended by able assissants, presided over by Mr. J. J. JOBLYN, who although quite ayouag gentleman, still posrcsscs overy quality of a thorough businessman. All appear to feel an interest in common with its proprietor, in performing their duties with the greatest ability.

Those who have never penetrated the mysteries of a Medical Laboratory, would do well to pay this extensive establishment a visit.—Cincinnati Daily Times, Jan. 31.

".. CINCINNATI MARKET. IS MONDAY, Feb. 14. FLOUR—Tbo demand continues good at full rates. Sales of 1,400 bbls, at 85 50 @85 60 for superfine, and $5 75 for extra 1,000 bbls superfine, delivered at Corwin, in this State, at 85 50, and 1,000 do, delivered from tho 20th of March to the 10th of April, at $5 80. 2,034bbls were received the last 24 hours.

They are standard remedies, and can be found in nearly every Drug and Apothecary store in the United States.

COLORING FLUIDS FOR THE HAIR ARE Dangerous. Wood's Hair Tonic restores the color, not by the nitrate of silver process but by a restoration of the healthy functions npon which the original and natural color of the hair and itt moisture its gloss its life and consequently its original beauty depended. Professor Wood as the age of thirty-seven years, was as gray as a man of eighty, and his hair was dry, thin and dead. Now he has not a single grey lock upon his crown, nor is his hair thin or dry, but soft pliable and moist as that of a child of five years. This preperation acts upon tho roots for after an application, that portion of the hair nearest the scalp, is found restored to the original color whatever it was wlii'e the ends of the hair are gray.— Try Wood's HAIB TONIC and do not apply any other till nftcryou have this. With this resolution yon will never have occasion to use a hair dye.

Caution—Beware ol worthless imitations as several are already in the market called by different names. Use none unless the words (Professor Wood's Hair Restorative Depot,
