Spinners' Association, requesting the favorable regards of the Congress toward Jo aepb Hot! and Hobert Foray th, who are delegated tobring before this Congress the grievances of tbe Fall River Spinner?. Mr. Crate preaented, with suitable introductory remarks, tbe annexed communication from the Cooperative Labor League, with ita accompany? ing resolutions, asking for the adoption of the latter. "Tbe Board of Managers of the Cooperative Labor League, appointed by the industrial Con? gresa, presents thr following rejtort of the success of its labors. It hus succeeded in establishing a permanent central organization, and by confining the contracts to tirst class stores, conducted by men of known respectability. Great satisfaction has bees evinced by the members, who are now Surchasing under this combined system at a re? action of prices, ranging from 5 to 20 per cent. It bos alao to report the organization of a Labor League in Williamsburgh, and trusts that it will Boon be able to report aimtlar results in Brooklyn and the various Wards of New-York. The mem? bers of the Board having heard the commercial grievances of the Fall River Operatives, would represent the policy of recommending to them, in connection with National Reform, aome initiatory commercial reforms for immediate relief, and to prepare them for aecoring to themselves the grand social specific, Free Land, and they would further beg to oiler an analogy, that as Water is an effectual specific against the destructive ravagea of fire only when combined with man? ly devotion, perfect organization, and high me cnanical ingenuity; neither can free land and land limitation, the specifics for the woes and wrongs of Labor, be made effective, without de? votion, and a system of political and social organi? sation aa perfect as that of the Army, the Navy, or the Fire Department, together with a more thorough acquaintance with the laws of trade, and the present governing powcrof the civilized world. It being an undeniable fact, that, although the happiness and domestic comfort of the American workman depends altogether on the fluctuations of Commerce, he is aa much without commercial repreaentation as the foreign mechanic is without Editioal representation. The members of tbe oard, believing that tbe principles and action of the C. L. L. is admirably adapted to relieve the necessities, and prepare the minds of tho working class for a beti er state of things, beg to offer the following resolution i Rmelrnt. That the Board he authorized and Instructed to communicate with the Kail Klver Operatives, on the plan of combining to purcbase. and auch other social reforms the; may wish to have explained. By order of the Board.'' Mr. Davis spoke in opposition and in quasi con-' | demnation of the Labor League scheme and the resolution. Ho apprehended that tho reduction of the number of dealers in tbe products ol indus? try would put the masses more in tbe power of capitalist than at present, and instanced tbe com? bined powers of money aud machinery now op? pressing the working classes as in point. Ben Price (?ecoud Ward) approved the report and resolution, and the measures of the Loairuo in general, as a meana of combining the working ingmen, and enabling them to understand their interests, while largely reducing their expenses for the necessaries of life. Mr. Willis (11th Ward) likewise spoke in favor, and snowed that this was one of the means ne? cessary to the organization of laboring men, by aaving to their pockets what they need to expend in organizing politically and socially , stating that ander the principles of the Labor Leag'te enough aaving upon the article of butter a. mo would bo effected to revolutionize society, independent of the vaat savings upon every other article of con? sumption. Mr. 8. P. Andrews (5th Ward) was in favor of organizing as a means to an end, but the end must be through individuality. But some principle, not yet developed, is necessary to accomplish this result. This principle ho was about to explain, but wu called to order by Mr. Commerford (10th Ward) who apoke with respect to the Labor League organization, and ap proved ita principles and operations aa a vast means of benefit to tho Industrial Clusos in the matter of better weights and measures than aro DOW meted to purchasers. Mr. Ira B. Davis (With Ward' again con? demned the operations of the Labor League as a meuure throwing tho amall dealers into the La? bor market to compete with the over-worked la? borer, already scantily enough rewarded. Dr. Young (Hid Ward) would suggest that ev? ery dollar reduction of the price paid the mere merchant or dealer, was saved to the workingmen at large, and the fewer tho number of dealers the less rents were charged upon the consumer in the price and profits upon articles purchased. Were there but half the amount of dealers there now exists, and the workingmen sulKeiently leagued together to compel a reduction of per cent, protita, they could compel Capital to compete against Capital, instead of driv in* them ,the workingmen) to compete against machinery and capital com? bined; while the small dealers, instead of living off their labor, would be driven to labor thetu sevles, and help to produce u well u consume.? They would then alao see the difficulties that be aet Labor and have a eotumon interest in those measures of Reform necessary, aa well to elevate the laboring man in character, u to preaerve tbe inatitutions of Democracy Mr Secretary Crate wu in favor of the Labor League u a meana to bring about tho Coopera? tion of tho laborin/ classes to their own salvation, by bringing home to their comprehension the economy of the meuure proposed and effected by this Labor League, and the guarantee that it gives them, that by uaociating their labors and capitals alao, they could ultimately control their own deatiny and elevate themaclves and 8ocioty. Mr B Price again spoke. He condemnedecono say aa usually taught and practiced?and passed a severe rebuke upon men who live on some three or four dollars a week, and aet the value of their services and that of every body else to the ?ame measure ;? begetting that species of econo? my illustrated by Dr. Franklin's Poor Eichard, principles of economy that would aoon enslave and impoverish the people. He believed that if the amall dealers were thrown into the labor m"*they would better appreciate the value 2l !2!? *n<1 tct in UD'-,mi witl?the neceuities of u**? tl>* ?pirit of improvement Mr-J Commerford claimed it wm the duty of this Congreaa to favor the Labor League organi xatwn, u an economical meuure. and as a meana of combination and mutual understanding. The Meport and Resolution waa here adopted. Mr. J I). Hennessy. (from tbe Committee upon that subject.) reported from the meeting of the Bhirt Sewers Society, that thay were in process of oiwanUatK.n. and would be fully organized by aext Tuesday evening, when further proceedin-'s niul.

Mr. Kingeley sought the countenance of the Congress as a guarantee of success and aa an as? surance to the workingman; but stated that at all events the funds could be raised and the paper put in operatihn. Mr. Davis was opposed to the indorsement of the resolution by this Congress. He did not fully understand the project in hand, and neither did Mr. lirown, who also oondemned action thereon. He would not discoursge the sue ess of the con? templated Journal?hoped it would succeed, but felt confident the workingmen had a competent bearing through a certain journal already in ex? istence. Mesara. Kingaley and Henneaay mutually fa? vored tome aort of action by the Congreas on this matter, as an organ for the Workingman, having a permanent form and Adapted for preservation, waa neceaaary. Mr. I'. E. Day, (Second Ward.) did not approve of thia Congreaa taking action on this scheme: it had already refused on two similar occasions, and he saw no reason for change of action now. Mr James M. Turner hoped the Congreaa would encourage the project, and that tho resolution and memorial would ho adopted. Mr. Crate also favored tho proposition and tho indorsement by this Congreaa of the propoaed publication, should it demonstrate by ita establish ment that it was designed to enlighten and com? bine the workingmen of the nation. Subject laid over. Mr. Rowen (Printers' Union) proposed action in commendation of Isaac P. Walker, (l\ 8. Senator from Wisconsin) for his recent speech upon the subject of tho Public Lands and their distribution to the people, in contradistinction to granta or sales thereof to monopolizers. Mr. Kingsley supported the proposal, as did also Mr. Commerford, in the following remarks; Mit. President : I differ with the delegate wha says'that it is not necessary or politic tot us to en? tertain a proposition to pass a vote of thanks to Senator Walker, for the discharge of Iiis <lut\ ? 1 sgrcc with him, that our representatives are obl'gated, by the Constitution, to legislate justly and correctly for the people. B ut the question is. have they observed the stipulations of the con? tract with their constituents 1 must answer, that our experience teaches that the interest of the great mass have been too frequently set aside to forward the unreasonable demands of capital. Is it not too lamentably true, that every branch wherein this powerful in? gredient is commin.'led, has ita sentinels and champions. That this is tho caso, no one will doubt, and it is equally certain that the grateful? ness lor services so rendered, find a more tangible and substantial manifestation than a mere vote of thnifks. Were the representatives to whom I allude, to stop at the point of executing the agree? ment with their employers, tho injury they do theirfellowcitizenswouldbesullicient. Likecarn est advocates they however determine that their vigilance and zeal shall secure them employment for the future. Hence it is that when labor visits the.Chambers of Legislation, and with hat in hand meekly aaks theae men to aaaiat iu relieving us from the deprcaaing weight of increaaing depriva? tion and miaery.tbe only roaponae ia the cold and chilling negative of a heartless majority. Urged by this condition of our affairs, 1 hold that it is proper that we should not only discriminate be? tween the acts of our public men, but that wo should also show them that we appreciate their serv ices whenever they subject theinaelves to the censure of such as disregard the intereet and wel? fare of the areat body of the American people. Mr. President, I am told that Mr. Walker, by his appeals in our behalf, has provoked the oppo? sition of the enemies of tho workingmen, and that these conservators of the interest and unhallowed expectations of capital, designate him aaa " dem? agogue." 1 do not doubt that this is the case . were it otherwise there would be a halt and a most serious separation in that link of continua? tion which characterizes the history of tho privi leged few. Is it not strange, that while this man ia endeavoring to carry the great measure of tbe Freedom of the Public Lands, in order to secure our population from future want and mise ry, he thereby makes himself an object of the malicious attacks of the selfish portion of the nation, when at this very period another Senator, old and weary of the accumulated honors which have been heaped upon him, stands up in his place, and like Scipio over the ruins of Carthage, predicts nothing but the moat fatal deatruction of ourbopea as a people? This idol of the Ameri? can people tells us that the ultimate destiny of the producers of this country shall become so reduced as that their wages will bo deprecia? ted to that degree that tho slave will be forced to retire into indolent freedom before the competi? tion of the white laborer. Disbelieving as I dj the prophet, and the prophecy, I will remark that 1 should in common with the Americau people hold the venerable Senator in much more esteem bad he placed himself side by side with the Sen? ator from Wiaconain in the attempt to arreat the fulfilment of bis own prediction. I conceive, sir, that that atatesman who can gather nothing from tbe paat to benefit the future, is not cabable of being n guido for the aspirations of a free people. Nor do I think that tbe destiny of our race, so far as this Continent is concerned, is safe when entrusted to su.-h hands. Tbe destiny of States like that of individuals is generally shaped by observing good, practising justice. Believing then that Isaa, P.Walkkk baa placed himself on the side of justice, and as we have nothing to off er but our thanks, 1 hope that the following re? solution will be adopted RenJretL That the thanks of thia Congre?* h ? extended to Mr. Isaac P. Wa'kerol" Wisconsin, for bis ableatvocary of the Freedom of the Public Lands, a rnea-ure which if car* ried out, will prevent the prediction of another Senator from being fulfilled, namely, "That tbe destiny of tbe white laborer will be auch a* to cause the extinction of Slavery through tbe deprivation and aitsery of tbe white working men of the country in compeuiion wlib each other for bread." Dr. Young would favor the passage of the resa lution. Senator Walker had treated his sabject in a masterly manner, as one wbo understood, both by study and sympathy, the elements and principles of progress. He alone, of ail who had y et spoken on this measure in the Senate, aeemed to comprehend it?showing alike capacity and sen aibility ia hia mode of treating it?suit!, like all t*ae and honest men. had met reproach for his ?Ftopathies, and scorn for his coursge, from that con*ervative c[l|| who ?|o(| their existence in the LVsWsTfi ft? ^"uree that suit the d?v, reKard -re ? at r/uture ^spring even. In a o-oper ap Kb\ZtZ?J Bch_ ? m?>tne workingman ?would m ?* Ttlu? ?? set upon himself. Mr. Walker represent* a State where Labor is honored, and tl e workinaman known to be both the ornament and bulwark of tbe Hepublic, and where it is seen that, if Land Monopoly is once permitted a Io If* ment, no remedy can core it, bat the radical one of Land Limitation or Revolution. He stems to appreciate the fact, tao, that when a O <vernmcnt takes from a man bis natural rights, it seid <m remedies tbe wroi sj prodaced. either by restitu? tion, Of an equivalent in the blessings of an equal ti> von ment, but rapidly tends downward to it* own destruction. Politician* are generally too hot in pursuit of their own aggrandizement to de liberate upon remote results, and many a people have been destroyed by a demagogue's pursuit of a bauble or a thmne. All honor is due to Senator Wa'ker, and may there be many such " dema gogacs " as he. Mr. P. E. Day and Mr. r>"a:e.an likewise spoke in warm commendation of Senator Walker and his just appreciation ol his subject?claiming that if a comprehension of a vast subject?of a matter whose adoption could alone save th-? p- iple from a sjstem of Land Monopoly that now MaaplafJ to the earth the people of the Old World, the land leas Whites of the Slave State?, and partieJiy in? fects with its poison every City and State in the Union?is an evidence of greatness, and the cour? age to prod tim the truth an evidence of bravery, then is Senator ba\AC P. Wwker both a ere at and brave man. The resolution was adopted with unanimity and applause. A proposition wa* here introduced and adopted that Parson* E. Day be a Delegate to the World * Fair at London from this Congress. Ad journed to Tuesday next. WM. J Y< >U*T0, Reporter Ind. Cong. New-Jersey Indnatrfal Legislature.

The 'anyards of the weather rigging were rabbit Um mast did not sro, neither would tho vessel right. The starboard watch was on deck and all were lost except the mate, who had charge ot the deck. a number of tf ose who were below were drowned there, and some made their escspe through the sky itght. The weather boat beinc above water waa cleared away, and tbe survivers, ten in num? ber, (one having since died) got into it. They were obliged to bale incessantly to keep the boat afloat. They were in tho boat M hours with no? thing to eat and very little clothing, and wero picked up by the Col. Taylor. Their wants were immediately attended to and they are doing well. They speak in the highest terms of Capt. Hogan, who, althvoeh he hadtwo ribs broken during the same gale, gave up his own bed and cabin to the sutlerers.

From the last reports upon tbe head-waters of Feather River, si.ow baa teilen to the depth of 19 or 14 feet, and cold so intense that eighteen ol t of A PARTT or NINETEEN men, froze to death m QM Mc.hi , and sixty or seventy mules. Tho s: ow ft II so rapidly that tho wood was all covered, and they were obliged to burn their cabiu to keep trim freezing j but even that did not save them. It.is known tbat over two hundred men have ro maiued upon tbe North Fork, with the determina? tion of wintering there, and fears are uow enter tained that they will all periah. Very extensive dry diggings have been dis? covered in the low ranges of hills between the Yuha and Feather Kivers, and in places so un? likely for gold, according to the notions heretofore received concerning deposits, that it is not only probable, but altogether likely, that the discovery of gold fa but just began. The prospect is good for getting back some of the money lost In dam? ming the Feather and Vuba Kivers, this Summer, fn ni the dry ravines looked upon as worthless while such great things were expected from 'damming." a The Minnie and Klnmnth Diggings. A correspondent of tho Pacific Acte.?, who v iaited the Sl.aste gold regions, after it was " du_ oat," says: "I saw some of the gold that had been taken out, schieb v. k* mostly in lartr,. " chunks," weigh? ing from a quarter of a pcund to two, and even aa high as live pounds. It was estimated by those capablo of judging, that upward of $-"J0,U00 had been taken out of a comparatively small extent of diggings. Since that time I have been a wan? dering miner, spending all 1 had to work so hard for, barely to keep aoul and body together, until driven to this place once more by the approach of winter?penny less, homeless, but I am happy to sly. r.ot Inendes?-.

' The I mpijua Valley. From the Pscific News, Uec. 21d. Yesterday, about noon, tho brig Kate Heath entered our harbor, after an absence of nearly three months, spent in exploring the L'mpqua river in Southern Oregon, and surveying tbe ri? h bottoms of its tributaries This vessel left San Francisco ou the ?7th September last, having on board a company of seventy five persons, exclu? sive of those belonging to tbe brig, who went with tbe design'of making permanent settlements j in that beautiful and inviting region. In consequence of the head winds prevailing at the time of their departure, thirteen days were spent in reaching a point which will hereafter be gained by steamers like the New-Orleans in thir? ty six hours. The cargo of the Kate Heath was discharged at I mpqua City, two miles within the mouth of the river, to the left as one ascends. At this location, which is destined to be the great point to which the commerce of tbe entire por? tion of Southwestern Oregon will be forever di? rected, a number of durable houses and stores were erected, thus laying the foundations of a city which must have a growth proportioned to that of similar points in our State. After landing at I mp ,ua City, the passengers Ott tbe brig msde the best of their wsy up the river, in boats and canoes,?as was done above Sacramento city, one year since, before the steam era bad been made which now navigate these waters,?as far as Scottsburg, a distance of about thirty miles. They scattered themselves from that point, and took up " claims' in various unoccupied portions of the fertile bottoms above. It may be well to remark in this connection, showing tbe appreciation in which this newly ex? plored portion of Oregon Territory is held by the other inhabitants of that region, that from August, tbe date of tbe former explorations of the f'mpqua Company of this city, to October last, nearly every claim from Scottaburg to the Fort, a dis? tance of sixteen miles, and also much beyond, waa taken up by tbe Oregon people themselves.? They even left good claims in the renowned Wil? lamette Valley without waiting for a purchaser; or sold them to some raw recruit Crom California, and removed with ail their household, cows, tur? keys, chick er s, and c hildren, into the better val? ley of the L'mpqua. And to ahow that this was not done merely from a love of change, we will atatc that previous to the explorations ot the com? pany they had but iittle knowledge of tbe whole region. Being composed mostly of Western peo? ple, they know more about tracking the pathlesa forest or prairie than about navigating along the ccast and exploring the mouths of ita rivers.? They had crossed tbe upper Forks of the Cmpqua and the Trinity, and here their know.'ed-'e ended. At prestnt, with that keen sagacity Akt they arc tot lacking, they discover that a little to the south of the Willamette, liea a land with vallies more fertile, a climate more bland, a.-id accessible by ore half the distance to a market superior to any other in the world. They are thus getting possession of seme of the choicest portions of tl at Territory, leaving to ISmnm re.-er/tly arrived fn m Csliloixin via tho Columbia, and to immi graatl overtfce Pia1:.?, those portions which they themselves coataiskf al less valuv And thus tbera is growing up, at almost the only other I >.

Kobbery of the Monterey ?. ?atom-Mease. yoaTKtJtT, Dec 13 ? A degree of ex litement seldom exhibited has prevailed hero the last week, upon the announcement that on the evening of Sunday, the -ih inst, between I and 7 o'clock, a daring and extensive robbery had been commit in the Custom lb .use of this port, by which fends) to the amount 01 IH coo, as near as can be ascer? tained, had been carried off The dia- orery waa made by Dr. A.

The outer door, it may he mentioned here, throu> h which the tlmve? had entered, wasfound locked on the return ot Dr. Kandall from supper, sbowiig clearly that the burglar* had a false key. and that the at!air had been previously planne?!. Dr. Handali, having aworn information, in the course ot an hour the live following indi? viduals, all "Sidney coves. 'were arrested: Joha H)an,Thomas Uuuck. James Briggs, Kichard Er Osman, and John Morris Morgan. The next morning the parties w. r?? brought up fat exami? nation bc'ore Justice lttchards, but on the appli? cation of Cbarlea H Kt John, County Attorney, the case* were postponed for two da>s to enable the prosecution to procure evidence In the mean time several warranta had been placed in the hands oi thotiaT Hoach, and an amount of money in dust, and trold and silver coin, tsk n from the houses ot two of the prisoner-, amount? ing to betweeu <$i:i,??? and ?14,000. After a second postponement the prisoneri were brought up I u Saturday la*t for IneJ exami? nation, being represented by a most ! trmidablo bar, Messrs. G. B Tn.gley Of San J.^e, Ord, Mc? Dowell and Ashhyof Monterey. The examina? tion of the case lasted from 7 A M to 111 F. M. when after able addresses on both ladt a, the Jus? tice announced I ts decision to be " t > hold the parties to answer the eiiarge at the next District Court." Ilia Honor had hardly announced his deciaion, when a violent scene ensued. One of the prison? ers, Hyan, swearing bo " would shoot the d-d District Attorney, and abusing their own counael for not acquitting them, after paying t^esn. The prisoners, alter some further violence, were safe? ly lodged in the County Jail. A reward of O'z.OOO is offered by Dr. Handall for the detection of the robbers and tho recovery of the money. IHlolna Newa. The Flacer Times, iSacramento City | of Janua? ry i, haathe following review of mining opera? tions :? Up to the present time, wc have had but little rain?not enough to enable miners to work in the ravines and dry diggings with much advantage ? Only a few daya at a time has there been ?utile ient water to admit of washing. Should the pres? ent weather continue, it will, to some extent, In? terfere with the calculations of miner*. They will not be able to realise as much from their mi? ning operations in the early part of the Winter, a* was anticipated. But when the snow upon tho mountains begins to melt, the present condition of things will change, and ample amends will be made, for the time will not be lost, a* tho miner* are now throwing up earth preparatoiy to wash? ing. The succeaa of tho mining interest of California, during the past season, has bocn good. Mot with? standing the losses which were sustained in tho esrly part of the season by damming operations, miners have generally done well. They have, in the aggregate, obtained a largo amount of gold, aa the returns by the steamer clearly indicate. The excitement of mining in California ha* nearly past. All classes of our citizens now very generally understand what can be averaged from mining operation*, and they are not disap Eointed with ordinary success. Gold mining hae eccmc a permanent business, and we hear less complaint from miners, than at any previous time duriLg the last twelve mouths. Tho San ff **atel0> Journal of Commerce, in relation to the quartz mining, say*: Among the meat extensive establi I ments may be enumerated that of dtocktou A Aap. .wall,the erection of whoso mat hinery is now > impletcd, together with a .ai v number of s i rounding buildings, such as dwelltssl houses, bl i ft smith ? ?hops, joiners' shops, A.c. Their ma< hinery is said to be far superior to any other yet put up for the purpose tor which it u designed. Palmer, Cooke A Co arc also making largo out laysot money in milling operations, and have thus far been well paid by the rich harvest of the pre? cious metal which they have extracted fron* the hupe and ponderous roch. Our intor.nant says that they have removed enormoua <|uintitie* of rock, and already extend. (1 a tunnel aUtut one hundred feet de.-p throuch the most d :!. uli part of the solid vein of quartz. Several companies are now organized in the vicinity of Burn*' D.gginge, for the purpoae of working the quattz rocks, thero beiag u that sec? tion one hundred and lifty persons engaged in mining, and some of them having their machinery already in motion. Toe vein* in that neighbor? hood are aaid to bo tho richest yet found in tha country ?-e? Itllacellnneeas Mew*. Marine Insikam k Company ?A short timo since tome of our most substantial citizen* enter? ed into the project of getting up a Marine Insur? ance Company, under the general law concerning corporations, passed at the last session of the Legislature. The enterprise enlisted the energies of the best business men of tho city, and a com* pany has been formed, w ith a capital of i?OO.OoO, of which we are glad to learn lloo.o.io has al? ready been subscribe ! The Company have app tinted tho usual officer*, Wni Hart, Ksq the enterprising auctioneer, hav? ing beeu (elected aa President. [Pac Iii News. Property in California.?It is curio is enough to observe the patriarchalctutom, aa it prevails in Southern California, of the father holding all the estate in hia own name, even though ho be four? score years of age. Don Pablo de la <iuerra,a member of the last Legislature, who we supposed wss one of the millionaires of the South, gives in his estate aa w orth MOO, while hi* old father seta down the princely sum of el 15,000 for the single item of land alone, ai d this probably st a great undervaluation. The Marshal states that a gene? ral thyneti pervaded all classes of native Calif or niana below, under the impression that tome ex? tortion was sbout to be practised upon tnemintho Mexican style.

On Ban day night last, at DsgVj Smith's Rauche, were found the bodies of three murdered men, two of them proving oa investigation, to be Digby Smith and partner, each pierced with two balls, and the 3d a stranger, having his head split open. The house was burned down, and it is yet unknown if rob? bery was also committed. It is surmised that the stranger was one of the attacking pirty, and lost his life in the straggle that ensued. Mr. Smith was frcm Burlington, If. J , and was the cultiva? tor of an extensive farm about two miles this side of Ssa Jos*.
