TEX LEGISLATURE The General Assembly of Tennessee conven ed yesterday, ia toe State Capitol at Nbil! We obaenre from the Nashville papers, that the Secretary of Stat had ordered the Capital to be illuminated last night, which we trtxr will prov a symbol of the intellectual and moral ilium-nation that oar Ipia!afore will dispense throughout the State. There are many questions which will come before it, at its present session, that nay be sett lea in such h manner as to re down to the highest prosperi ty of to people, or may cause a retrograde both in toe morals and prosperity of our people. Among toes questions, none whatever is more important than that of currency. It has fsasBa to be indispensably necessary, not only to the ucceas of a sound banking system, but also it is demanded by the highest interests of the working man, the artizan and the mechanic, that no currency should be permitted to issue which is not mad payable at the place of is suance and upon the demand of toe bolder of the bill. The right of manufacturing currenc) in our State, has by the giace of the Legisla ture, been almost exclusively vested in the va rious banking institutions which enjoy charter ed privilege under and by its authority. Thte currency has thus driven out of circulation the only truly sound circulating medium which la recognized as the standard of commercial ex change throughout the civilized wold gold and silver. The panics which are permittee tous to enjoy toe privileges and profits, accru ing from so important a monopoly, ought to be roaapeiled to furnish by law a currency which may be converted at will into gold and silver. Without this, to producer ard laboring mar daily safer toe lost of the difference be'wesr. the artificial and the real money and the ag gregate loss falls upon toe State at large. Let this crying evil be reached and remedi d by such amendments to the existing laws as oil be most wise and salutary. It is the duty cf the Legislature to devise some efficient remecy for toe evil. It Is demanded no less by the popular voice than by toe public inter. SEW ORLEANS AMD CilEO S AILS With a view to guard against irTeg-ilarties in the transmission of mails on this very im portant route, Postmaster General Brown ha issued instructions that whenever the contract ors fail to depart in schedule time, the Post masters at New Orleans. La., Memphis, Tenn.. and Cairo, HI., are authorized to make up ana send mail by first -class steamboats, on the best terms practicable. Ba.tm ore Saw. We axe pleased to leara that the Postmaster General has determined to enforce, if possible, the prompt and regular transportation of th mails on this highly important route. The service a performed by toe contractors, bss been of the most disgrseeful character. In stead of owning and running a regnlar line of packets, as was clearly contemplated by the act of Congress, the contractors have hid but two boats under their control, and one of them has been laid up a gieat part of the time. They have relied on transient boats to perform the service, and, while themselves receiving at the rate of $900 ibe round trip, have refused to pay over $400. The result haa been that the mails have been carried very irregularly, and gene rally carried by boats, without reference to speed, that would carry it cheapest. Very fre quently, a we learn from the Cairo ai d Mess phis papera, two and three, ai.d on one occa sion at least five daily mails were earned on the same boat. Hare it ia not uncommon to receive in a batch, at one time, three or four days' papers from New Orleans, Memphis ant other Son' hern river cities. If the postmasters at Cairo, Memphis an. New Orleans will, without fear or favor, en force the order of the Postmaster Genera i. there will, we are satisfied, be same approach to regulari y in toe transmission ani delivery of our Southern mails. O a commercial inter ests are sj closely identified with these of the Mississippi Val'ey that this mail route is one of the most important to us. Ctucinaa.i En quirer. The existing contract for the trarspor alio:, of the mails along the Mississippi river, is no' the work of Gjv. Bbows. It was concluded bruis" illustrious predecessor," who, it may not be improper to say, had a idea of the wants cf the Mississippi The contract itself, in its terms, are to place the best construction possible upon it, imper fect and unsatisfactory. The present Poat- ter General cannot, therefore, in any just : be held responsible for this mail arrange ment, except so far as to make the best of a bal bargain, and to see that the contractors prform faithfully what they have undertaken. Xbis. it will be observed, he is determined to do. The plan he has adopted is an excellent one. If th contractors are ready to take the mails dmilw from the prominent p-iints on toe river between Cairo and New Orleans, th-n a punctual and reliable mail arrangement will be secured t the public ; but if on the other bad, they should fail to call for the mails, then toe first goo-i boat that can be employed will re ceive tbem, the expenses of transportation charged up to the contractors and deducted from their pay. This seems to be jast al.ke to the Government and contractors, and the long mooted question as to whether toe contractors have performed their duty will soon be settled If they do not intend to perform the service all n.sht, everyihiug on or about me bein per stipoistei, the sooner they sbandon toe coo- M'T wet- Mrs. Mervin lit in a cup ioard, , . . . . .. . , ...

As I kept on, in sbout half an hour I saw that he was a steamer, with all her colore set as signala of distress. As soon at 1 saw ini, i hauled my wind, and shaped my course for the iistressed vessel ; I could that (he wa di ibled, and was deep in the water. I judged bat he might want, and gave order to stand by the msin het, to heave our vessel to; the msn at the wheel steered within fifty feet of toe steamer, and at 6:30 r. u. I hailed her in he following langusge: " Can I reider you ny assistance?" The reply was Lay by ne un'il morning, for I am in a sinking con dition." Immediately I gve the order to put the wheel lard down and haul aft the main sheet, and love to. directly under bis lee, say sbout gun shot distant ; I warned him to commence at once putting bis passengers on board, uppo tung that he had good boats, while I bai but saw, a small jolly boat, which would not then .ive in the high sea running for a moment He again said "Lay by me until morning" I supposed hi reason to be for thus delayi ig -bat he thought it advisable to await daylight, as be might, in making toe attempt to transfer hem in toe mint, (it being then near dark,) ose more than be could save, while, by await ngdavlight, perhaps, all might be saved. I hen eaid "set your lights." By that lira I had drifted oat of hailing distance, and I order ed my lights set immediately. During the time that I waa talking with the captain, 1 could hear toe jiaasengers -Tyr-)' aad hallooing, sounding like one simui'ane "je burst of shouli: r : one voice that I heard above the -et, cried -nd ls your boat f but as I have i efore stated, my small boat could not live in I uch a ea.

Twm th Wathrnsrtoa SUt Major General Scott has transmitted to the Xaticnal htelliganetr a note somewhat In re ply to the statements mad ir. General Pillow's sddresa to the people of Tent.es. General Scott's letter does not betray any of those e- acerbated feelings which are so painfully i- I dent in General Hitchcock's communicstion. we congratulate iifnrri i-cwii wu sssss k sion of such grest good humor, and recommend tfa high example as most beneficial to those who msy enter into this or any other discussion in toe public prints. General Scott takes the opposite course from that pursued by bis late Inspector General of the American Army in Mexico. He beholds the rock on which Gen. Hitchcock's fury dashed itself, and so takes the matter in a very differ ent spirit, and expresses himself upon it in a very cm . Wnether he finds a rock in hi , n njt wj fce een rantf doti , p iibeMy8 himself, enter into any formal i --- - - recrimination of General Pillow, or any defense of himself. It is in behalf of others in chief Mr. N. P. Trist that General Seott notices some other points " in the address. General Scott la of opinion that while Gen. Pillow criticises the Mexican campaign " with to boldnass of a master in the art of war," and " eulogizes bis own services therein," b blunders in hi statement as to the diabur ment of the money by which tome certain Mex ican omcial were bought up. Scott certifies on honor tbat he never, at any time, paid to General Santa Anna, or caused to be paid to him, or to another for his use and benefit, one dollar or more, on any account, or in any way whatever. A little farther down General Scot! ays that Pillow' statement " grew, n i doubt, out of some bint be confidentially picked up about headquarter that i had paid tiat prieitt turn ' to and ' for important in formation received and to be continued from toe enemy's ramps and armies " This statement from General Scott puts him in as great antagonism to Hitchcock as did the evidence on the trial of Pillow, when they both, instead of proving anything against the latter, only swore direct against each other. A great portion of Hitchcock' letter i de voted to an exposition and defense of General Scon's motive in importing Mr. Triit't nego tiation to purchase the connivance of the Mex lean Government at the defeat of Mexican arms Gen. Hitchcock took notes of the opin ions given at the assembly cl general officers on the evening of the 10th July, 1847, at the quarter of Gen. Scott, at Puebia. The meet ing was called by Gen. Scott. After inform ing the officers of the approach of Gen. Pierce with 2.000 or more men, he then disclosed," ) Hitchcock, " some proceedings enteie.l upon by Mr. N. P. Trist, the United States Commissioner toe substance of which was, that Trist bad been informed through confiden tial source, that a treaty of peace could be bad with the iiezica GovrrnwmU by the ue of a little money." Gen. Hitchcock continue : ' A handsome sum bad been already appro- ijt,d b , United State. Congre for se I " , .t ... ... curin a treaty, anu iue cju's ion nu mi. Trist, as stated by the General, was as to I whether a million of it might not appropriately i be used in the mode suggested by those in pow ' er io tbe City of Mexico, even though it should I be considered 6ri6 the proposal coming from that side. Gen iscott took pains to ex- i , . .; j hM r .- : . .. , v . rime men a jcieme , out. mai, miimuiu proposal bad come from Mexico of s peculiar I character, be, for bi( own part, was willing to assist Mr. Trist in executing hi wishes. Gen. Scott did not profess to advocate such proceed 1 ings in general, and declared that, in tbe pres ent case. U was for Mr. Trist himself to .leler- f Vd'Vrt'oV Mr. Trist decided upon the empl yment of monfr . Pr2P" ' .0 ' " i t him la vfbtaining it, and woull defend his motives in the use of it " Hitchcock proceeds to give, from his note book, the opinions of Gen. Twiggs, Pillow, Quitman, and Shields; after which he save: "General Scott repeated 'bat it was for Mr. Trist to determine whether he could properly use toe money, adding that he would assist him to toe control of it if he desired it." Hitcl cock could not dare make up, from ibe m ft. t ! resource, of h,s fancy, avy ucb account .of . meeting ka which tbe names of such brave men are rbronicled. Such a meeting, and for tbe purpose indicated, took place. That ia beyond : con'radiction. General Scott gave toe opinion : accredited to him ; we take that for granted, and, in toe face ot it, we cannot regard, save 1 as an unwor'by quibble, th statement that be did n it pay any money o Santa Anna, or the Mexican Government, which means the same ; thing. A he said at tbe Puebla Council, " it i was for Mr. Trit to determine ;" and under that be shield himself now. If be did not ac tually pay tbe money, he knew tbat money was paid ; and avowed bims If ready to assiet in the control of it. By his own statement, Gen. f'cott acted iu concert with Mr. Trist ; and the latter, no doubt, waa much influenced by havij)) Gen. Scott to back up what he ( Iris) co ceived would be j idicious. It matter little to us which of them really received the Mexican propositions, or paid tbe money ; or whether it waa paid toSmta Anna, or the Mexican Government, or" those in pc.w- j er in the City of Mexico," or " ar.d '' for iinporiaut information received from the enemy's camp and armies ; but tbe money was paid. General Pillow's statement are virtually true. They are sdmitted by the note-book re ports of Gen. Hitchcock, and. to sny lair and reasom I mind, substantiated in fact, if not by ex rees term, in General Scott's letter. The q:ieiijn comes to this: W there, or wa there not, money used to purcbaae Mexi can eonnivatica in tbe success of tbe American ! arm? There wa. Did Gr.erl Scoit know or not know it ? He admit be did. Ibe quibble is beneath General Scott, though the presistert good humor with which he at tempt to envelop it is commendable. A to saying that Mr. Trist had no money, we have Mr. Buchanan's letter of instruction. BSt tsg that could go as high as $311,000 000 to make a treaty, under certain circumstances. Extra BusBXta ok the Pf.nsstlvakia L '.g islatubk. Governor Polloce, of Pennsylva- , has called an ex'.ra sesaiou of the Legis- . . , .... , , n.i,i ...

Tht ac'ion on 'be part of the Governor doe not meet with tbe favor of the Democrat ic press of the State, so fir as we have ob served. The Pailadeiphia Arrnt says : It is atated that our Black Repub'ican Governor haa called an extra meet ig of tbe State Legislature, to legalize the preaent u isxsi0D of specie payment by tbe banks. We propose that toe Legialature ehould go a step furtb-r, if they are prepared to go aa far a tbe Governor recommends. If the violation of the law of the Sta'e by our banking insti tution is to be leesluea, if tbey are to be re lieved of the penalty tbey have incurred, we see no reae'in whv there should not be a g-n era 1 prison delivery, a universal amnesty and millennium for individuals as well as corpora- n-uia. nuvnoi." is noi mis a government : of eq ial lias and equal rights?

If one class are compelled to sutTer tbe legitimate consequences of iteir misdeeds, every class should, 'lucre should be no privileged claescs in the way of legal zed fraud. " If a merchant ha a note due at a bank, he i compelled to meet it at all hazard and at every sacrifice, or bi credit is ruined ; we see ii reason wby a corporation of debtors Could be treated with any more leg.slative cle nency than the bai k treat those who are indebted to them. L'l the Legislature extend j g aid to tbe merchants who have (uspeuded, as well a the institution that have f. rl-ited their charters.

T ths rs.b.;c From tbe HahctiU I'nu nasal Amrrl-an 1 Some few week since a comm-inlcalion, sigo'd " Sumner," appeared in tbe column of the I ' ion md Jwurican advocating my elec tion a Speaker of the Hoo of Representa tive at the approacbingseasion of tbe Legis lature. This article was written and published without any consultation with m or knowledge j or Its contents on my part, m m it appeared in the newspaper. It contained an allusion to my political difference with my brother, Andrew J. Oonclaon, but, ss 1 am informed, waa net- ther conceived or written in any unfi undly I spirit towards btm. Soon after the appearance j of this article sn editorial appeared in the Pa- i Iriof, commenting very severely on my political coura and making bitter charges arainst my consistency. Altiiough perfectly saiieti-d that the basis of these accusations waa furnished by my brother, I answered it in the Unio and Jwurica, under my own signature, in as tem perate and moderate terms as it waa possible to couch t i- ply to such charges. Thi reply remained without a rejoinder for some time, and it waa my earnest hope that tbe controver sy had terminated ; but on the 2d inst. tbe Pa triot contained a long communication signed "Anti-Nullificr," more bitter and malignant than the first, and entering into matter con nected with tbe family history of Major Oon elson and myself, sod proposing to sustain cer tain charge by reference to old letter and doc uments. Feeling perfectly satisfie tbat this last attack cams from my brother, and wishing to ascertain tbe truth of my suspicion before entering on a .y defense of myself, or attack on another, I called on tbe dilorof tbe Patriot lot the author of this coinu.Buicatioa.and be give me the nam of my bto'her, Andrew J. Louelaon, by his consent. Every feeling of my nature foriid me entering into a fratrici dal contest. Whatever charges be may make gainst me, shall go i;in.-.irJ. I will not open to public gaze tbe brotherly correspon dence of former years, or re-open with him difficulties over which the ashee of oblivion oiujtst to be spread. There will, therefore, be no further public controversy between us. DA.VL. S. DONELSOX. Ballrcad Indcbtednrss Becuperalive rover of th Country . Prom tkeH.w T-rt Mirror Such is ibe universal anxiety in relation to he p recent finareial ditCeiilti tbat toe public scarcely trouble themselves about anything ASS. Let us follow them to toe top of tbeir bent. Tbe proximate difficulty, tbe one which his beset us first, and out of which the press ing necessities tor money have arisen, appear to oe our railroad indebtedness. We find in tbe State of New York bo less than fifty-one companies, With an aggregate capital in round numbers of six'y-eigbt million fo:r hundred and sixty-fix thouaand dollars. Tbe amount (f bonds ise je i by thee companies is sbout s'xty-eigbt millions an t a fraction upwards more, and tbe floating debt ia upward( of three million eight hundred and eignty-aeven thou sand dollara. Altogether thes companies owe their stockholders and other ere .t'.ora more than one hundred and forty million three hun dred and i.tv-six thousand doltais 1 Massachusetts ba fifty-four railway com panies, great and small. Obio has for'y-one, Indiana forty-cne, Illinois fifty. eight. W have no reliable accounts of the capital paid in upon the Illinois railways, nor ibe amount of their bonded or floating debt, ard the othir are not very pressing oc the market. But we have sufficient data to forin an estimate of the ! 5Sl I existing i indebtedness of the companios now n the United Slates, a the material for to-day's remarks, obta'ned from official re turn, and tbev stand thus : Capital rock paid up, $133,286,910; bond i.sued, $303,137,973; floating deb', $40,126,958; estimate of cost when completed, $1,090,381,114 Thi is rather an astounding picture for con templation, an I when we consul-r that most of the bonds and floating debt have been put upon ttia u.atket for negotiation, boto at boine snd abroad, is It any wonder there is a pressure for money in ?."e York, or tbat the (ecurities should jostle each other alxost cut of exi. tence I Now tbe specie in tbe bank throughout the Uuion only amounted in 1856 to sixty millions. The amount in circulation was about one hun dred and ninety millions. The amount of bank rotes iu circulation was one hundred and ninety-five millions, or more than three for one of specie. So tbat alt the pecie in circulation in the banks and 1he t :r k notes added togetbet will not pay one-balf of the oat of the con struction of the railway, nor even pay what baa been advanced by their stockholder arid bondboMeis. All these difficulties bave come upon us at once, and, though long expected, are a surprise at last. The manager of o ir railways, believing tht' a long as they could issue bonds they could fi-id caeb, have fairly run the money marke into the ground, Bud themselves with it. We consider that the te preciation of this property is equivalent to one-hali ; or, iu other trcrds, tbat five hundred million of prop-T'y have been destrcyej by 'bis crisis, and many thousands if people axe ruined who are its unfortunate hold-i s. Ia It any wonder there is a panic or a pressure when everybody seeks to realize? This, however, ia the dark side of tbe picture. Let us onsole our".ves with its better, though perbapj remote, aspect. The money expended so far in tbe construction of our ratlwsys say five hundred rmlijoi has. fr tbe most part, been expended at home, auio: g laborers, me chanics, farmer, and manufactuiers. They bave laid it out in houses, lands, improvements, and large additions to ibeir domestic comforts, so that the merchants, in their turn, have gain ed largely. We can tee it in the rapid growth ard prosperity of cur ri'.i-s, towns, and villa ges, aud tbe increased value of sgricultiral property. We hive, then, our power, of recu etaiiun in greater s'reng'b than ver. Figure Alii ahii-ar ll.ia r-inrl.i.ivelr. At the Treai-Tl Deparment of the United Stales the value of the real ard personal estateof the people of the I nited Sta'es is estimated at eleven thousand three hundred and seventeen million of dollars and u. ward. If our whole railway property was blotted out of existence, it would not be ten per rout, of cur a 'untied i ational wealth at if there is a loss of one half only, it can be but five per cent. The population cf tbe country is about twen-y-seveu millions. If tbe railwaya were a total loss it would be but twenty-seven dollars each, .f every person was eqoally able to pay. The poor m gbt not be able to do so, but tbe As' or, Whitney, and other large estate in th: country might easily make up the de ficietiey. But further, if th:. loss should Ills rilf . according to our aupposi'ian, it would run through many yeara.n 1 not amount to one or even a half per rent, per aniinoi cn toe real and personal fata'e of the country, according to the period considered as an extension of owe lia bilities. But we do not consider oar railway system blown up. Ou the contrary, it isCiM u.e life of the country. Whut is desirable is that tbe rotten companies h" .1 1 go dowi: at on- e, or fall into other hands, and ibat the management should hereafter be intruited to none bit tbor ougbly competent and Bessatatfa ram.

Moaof nr reader have heard the espres- Ion, AJttic Printing," no doubt ; but many pr. bably are unawan of its exact na- I t ire, tbe uses to which it can be applied, an tti abvi-'s which, in unscrupulous hands, it can bs mass the means of perpetrating. On thi account we bav thought it deairable to explain a short account of to ingeniou pro cess itself, and also the mean devised by Col. Glynn for rendering inoperative the knavery to which tbe soasiatic process might he Bp- plied. Tbe term Jnaitatie means a raising up, and very ngutneantiy doc the term express 'He result. Commencing with the slapleV, best known fact in connection with this process, let as call to the reader's mind a result be ha often witnessed, no doubt often regretted, little im- agir.ing It would become the basis, in efficient har.ds, of an ingenious philosophic discovery.

That is to say, s printed pig ueiug urmiy impressed sgainn a Diana page or paper the latter is impressed with the mark of every letter. This i tbe foundation on which the anastatic process rests. Proceed we now to tbe actual operation. Tbe pi lut of which anastatic ropy is required, la first moistened with very dilute nitric acid, and by means of pressure between fold of bibuioua paper, all auperabuudance of acid ia removed, subjected to these condition, th reader will be at no loss to understand that tbe nitric acid, being an aqueous solution, will not hav attached itself to toe ink marks, for tbe reason that printera' ink i an oily fluid ; and now. If the paper thus prepared be laid flat on a sheet of xinc, two rcault will follow. In tbe first place, the printed portion wi I leave a -orTor impression on th zinc ; in the econd place, th nitric acid attached to tb non printed parts of the paper will corrode the xtse, converting toe whole block, in act, into a very shallow stereotype. The next stage of the operetion consist, in smeaiing ibe whole zinc plat with a very thin layer of gun water, which again, it is evi dent, will not stick to tbe printed or oily parts, but will attach itself to every o'ber portion of the plate. A harge of printer's ink is now applied, and this, in its turn, only atta .he it self to the impression already existing. The final auccess consists in pouring on s solution of phosphorous acid, which not only corrodes tbe zinc whereon no ink spots exist, but also produces a surface to which printers' ink will not attach. The pruree is now complete, and fiom cb a prepared plate any number of im pressions may be struck otT. To be in Berorda: re with tbe fact already mentioned, tbe anastatic process should only be ap, Ifrable to tbe copving cf impressions made wrh printers' ink. Other inks, however, may be adapt etto the operation. And hence the dishonest practices to which, wi'hout some safeguard, th ajustaric proceas might be appied, would be numerous. Copies of checks I and bark not' may be taken, by this process, o accurate as to defy scrutiny In point of fact, bankers even have been mistaken again ! and again when axaminiug notes and checks ; forged by thi. process. It is with the view or removing thi danger in which the public stands, 'hat Captain Glynn lis devised his paper for the prevention of for geries by means of anastatic copying.
