Bv Mr. Harvey, that the rules of last session be adopted by the present session. Adopted. Mr. Meredith moved to take from the table a resolution relative to the taking by the members of the House five copies of the Sentinel and Journal for each member, and that the Postmaster mark the same prepaid. Carried. .Mr. L'ttle moved to amend by striking out that portion relative to the pre-payment of the postage. Mr. Lane remarked that he thought it necessary and called for by the people to take this means of procuring information. It is known that since the time reaching beyond the memory of any present, that there never was known such a thirst for knowledge and information by the people of the present time upon all the great questions of. the day. It was paying from one pocket to another, and tha people would sanction all measures of this nature. Mr. Meredith had no intention of voting against the resolution so far as the taking of the papers; it was only the pre-payment of the postage lie objected to. The individual to whom the paper is sent would have but one cent postage to pay. Let him pay it, and not charge the postage of all papers sent to the State. If pre-paid, the p'stage would bo three cents, while if paid by the person to whom it is sent, he would pay but one cent. Mr. Lane remarked that the law was such that "regular subscribers" should pay one cent, but all others were to be pre-paid, or it was a fraud upon the law. -' Mr. Meredith said that the construction of the law was as he himself had stated. That iC the postmaster here was a little nice on this subject, he might probably be forced by public opinion in the matter, and an appeal could be made to the Postmaster General. He was informed that legislative bodies were excepted in the law. Mr. Little remarked that the individual to whom the paper is sent would have but the one cent to pay. He thought the State had debts enough to settle. The amendment was adopted. Mr. Neal then moved to indefinitely postpone the the whole matter. Not carried ayes 4G, noes 49. The question was then taken upon the passage of the resolution. Not carried ayes 45, noes 49.

Eowles to the 2d Indiana Regiment in the hütest of the fijrht at Buena Vista, which nearly lost us the battle. Fr so ordering, he has received general condemnation throughout tne land. Yet at the Eime hour, there were men in Congress urging with impassioned zeal the same course of action calling on Gen. Taylor to retreat beyond the Rio Grande, and on the Government to cut off his supplies of men and money. They were anxious to see done what Urkea and Canale9 were doing between Monterey an Matamoras, and could thejr voice have been heard at Buena Vista, it would have spoken to our brave soldiers a retreat, with supplies and reinforcements cut off, and in the presence of the foe, beyond the banks of the Rio Grande, trailing in .the dust that banner which had been borne victoriously from Palo Alto to Agua Nueva. If Col. RowrLES deserves condemnation for his order, given tinder a galling fire, when his men were falling by scores before him, what measure of indignation ie due to those members of Congress who were at the same time insisting upon a more dastardly and dishonorable retreat? St. Ijouis Union. Plank Roads. In company with Geo. Geddes, Esq., we lately enjoyed a ride on the Salem and Central Square plank road. This road, in constructing which Mr. Geddes was engineer, was completed during the past year. Its length is 15 miles. It is decidedly the most agreeable road to ride over, that we ever eaw. The carriage glides along as smoothly as on the frozen surface of a lake or river. The plank are hemlock, eight feet Jong, and three inches thick ; laid immediately on the earth, which is made perfectly smooth to receive them. They keep their places without any fastening. On one side of the road there is a good ground track, twelve feet wide, exactly level with the plank, ou which carriages turn out, and which in dry weathtr is a good road. The wst of this road, including both the earth and plank tracks, was jyloOO per mile, and it in expected the plank will Lst eight years. A team will carry about double the weight on this road that it will on the common roadj, and a horse in a carriage will jro along at the rate of sixty or seventy miles a day. In a section where planks can be cheaply procured, wu have no doubt that those roads will be found profitable. A lb. Cultivator. Important Decision. The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania have decided that a will to which the "mark" of the testator is made, is void and insufficient. According to a law of the State, when a man cannot sign a will himself, h:-3 name must be signed to it by some person in his presctictL and by his express direction. J

It not only acts u a specific upon ISilious and Typhus Fevers, Chili and Fever, and Fever and Ague of the wet and south, but in all dueaies of debility, weak stomach, indigestion, loss of ppetite, impuiitjr of the blood, and all diseases prevalent in a wester an 1 ouiuern climate. Their great power consists in their peculiar eilect upon all the organs of the system, and ihe rapij formation of new mnd rick llooi, which they prmlu.-e. In this lief the great secret of their success. They are wild and pleasant in their action, but searching and permanent in their eilect; penetrating the remotest recesses of the system by thtir ready absorption into the blood, thereby infusing a new supply of vitality and nervous power into all tbe machinery of life. The extenive popularity they have acquired all over the west and south, ensures sales of at least 50,000 lSoxes per HIouili, And we Cnd it diiticult, with our large force of hands, and the Inte improvements in machinery which we have adopted, to manufacture them fast enough to supply the demand in thirteen western and southern States 1 One large manufactory is constantly engaged in preparing the various concentrated extracts of which tuc-y are coiuo&ed.

The Tonie pills are peculiarly adapted to the quick and permanent core of Fever and Ague, torpor of the Liver, and generul debility. It is in Fever and Ague, Chill Fever, Sir., that they achieve their greatest triumphs. It rarely requires over twelve hours; or more than half a box of tuo tonic pills, to brek the chi lis and effect a permanent rure which is rarely the case with the tonic mixtures of quinine, hank ed about the country by ignorant pretenders. Those who take the tonic pills will never forsake them. Who can wonder, then, that a medicine of such extensive popularity, and extraordinary virtues should cause Great excitem'nt among the Doctors ! The prejudices of physicians against their use are t last giving way to the play ot reason, anil the convictions of every -day experience which they derive from their patients and friends who use them. Ikctors are now almost every day sending orders from every part ot the country lor a supply 01 these puis to use in tneir practice.

I have thoroughly tested yourTonic Pills In my praeticethrouch this country, not only in chills and tcver, but in real typhoid ferer, and have met with such success from their use, that I now find myselt at a great loss to get along without them.
