Congress.?In the United States Senate, being Private Dill day, nothing of public interest was done. Adjourned till Monday. The House managed to disgrace itself. tV The telegraph this moraing inform* us of anticipated duela and a scarcity of Pork ' An almoat frightiul accident occurred nn the Philadelphia and Baltimore Railroad last night )] k Moat Dt?BraceTul Fraeaa. The 1 union and harmony' secured by the passage and inaiairenance of the Fugitive Slave Law were freshly illustrated yesterday in the House of Representatives by a fight between Messrs. Brown and Wileox, both Members from Miasissippi, slaveholders and ' Democrats,' but Brown belonging to tho 1 State Rights' and Wilcox to the * I nion' wing of the party. We refer our readers to lull particulars of the fray in the telegraphed proceedings of the House. ?The worst part of the atTairis the light man net in which it was passed over by the Housei as with former oatragea of the kind. Here are two men, both untler the highest obligations to behave themselves, indulging in an exhibition of their temper and breeding which deeply, cruelly disgraces and iajurea their coantry?lniurea it worse than does the peculator who steals 3?liK?, mofrotn the Treasury. Vet they are let off with? out eveo b reprimand, as was the ruffian Borland by the Senate, on the occasion of his breaking Mr. Kennedy's nose by a blow of hie fist some days ago. Thus brawls an I blackguard dis? plays are incited by ihe perfect impunity which they tecetve at the handa of fongres*. It only remains for the Peop'e to act worthily in the premises. A House which thus permits the Nun.-a to be disgraced by its Members with? out remonstrance makes the guilt and shame ita own, and should be dealt with accerdingly. CP We this morning publish entire the Speech which Gov. Srward delivered in the Senate on Tuesday last, upon the great question of America's duty to the cause of Libeity and National Independence in other lands. The particular theme was naturally the claims of Hungary for our interrention to protest against, and protect her from* that Russian invasion which has once over? throws her people and threatens to do it again in case of their uprising. But Gov. Seward never discusses a special topic without reference te principles of universal magnitude and importance, and in this case he bringa to his work a maturity of thought, a breadth of research, and a classical ele? gance ancf force of statement which make his speech a model in its kind. Many will disagree with his positions ; many will rind that he goes too far; some that he does not go far enoagh; but his speech wQl be read by them both; it will rind an echo wherevor among the People there beats unfettered by prejudice a manly and generous heart; and U will leod a fresh hope to the etile and the oppreaaed longing for the dawn of liberty upon their beloved and enchained native kad. no BrTui raoM Eibopb has _ startling feature. The French despot holds his own. The new British Ministry haa epenew its career with a moderate and pel itic ieolaration of its policy. It adheres to prote?ooB, b?i will not attempt to force it upon the cotrsTtry at the present moment, at the expense of a dissolntion of Parliament and a special election. The GoTeroment wiL' await the result of ihe regular eleeii^n, and in the wear while will administer affairs without any n arkfH chinjre from their pre Ti<>ui course. This election, in the im course of tilings, will foilo* after the pres? ent ?esrioc, whi-h is the sixth of the present Parliament. That body is elected for seven jean, but the usage ia to dissolve itpre t/ious to the seventh ses?ion, even without any special rt-ason, so that its regular dura? tion is in fact but ?ix years. And while thus not urging the main question of party waifare, Lord Derby give* nr. tic e th.it he shall abandon Lord -Toiiii Russell's Reform bill, and shsL not bring in any such measure as the bill to establish a system of National Schools promised by the late Premier. In the view of the present Government, the only good education is one founded on the study of the Scriptures, and the Church of England, acting through its parochial cler? gy, the best possible means for conferring it. With regard to foreign policy, the line of conduct marked out in Lord Granville'a late circular to the Continental C overnments will be adhered to, while the refugees in England are warned that they will not bo allowed to conspire against the powers that have banished them from home. From Prussia we have the report of ex treme distress from the scarcity of fo>d. The famine is felt even in Berlin. German politics maintain their usual monotony. CP* We learn from Paris that The Trib? une is honored by confiscation at the hands of the present French Government. Copies sent by mail are not received, and the bun? dles of newsagents are opened in order that the offensive journal may be seized and prevented from instilling into any body's mind that hatred and contempt which are the desert of the murderous usurper who holds that country in abject bondage. We can only say that, by telling the truth about him and his doings, we have done our best to deserve such treatment at his hands. Ce*attcricnt? the Stake Nincls ! The friends of Ths Maim- Law in Con? necticut have put themselves on the record. They have solemnly declared that they will vote for candidates favorable to the great measure of protection and reformatioa they ask for, and will not vote for candidates who, by open declaration or obstinate si lence, stand opposed to that measure.? Which candidates are in one of these cate? gories and which ia the other, so far as State Officers are concerned, they have also plainly set forth, so that ea-h voter who docs not wish to be ignorant must know precisely how his vote, for one ticket or tbe other, will bear potentially on the overshadowing question of Grog-shop Sup? pression and Temperance Reform. The issue is thus suspended on the fidelity of Temperance Men to their con? victions. If they vote as they know they should vote, in order to secure the over? throw of the Rum Traffic, theie efforts must triumph, and the Maine Law become the law also of Connecticut within the next three months. If many of them choose to hold this question subordinate to party names and 'usages'?to 'go it blind' for Party, regardless of the cry which comes up to their ears from crowded Aims-Houses, expanding Prisons and multiplying widows am! orphans, divested of their all by the Liquor Traffic, they will of course sur? render and secure the victory to the Rum selling interest. For that interest will not sleep nor spare? it will laugh at party names and spells, and act with a single eye to its own prosperity and perpetuity. No man who is resolved to live by sellingor die by drinking Liquor will care one straw for the party differences in? volved, save as they can be turned to the advantage'of their business or their appe? tites. There are many who sell and drink, who do not care for the business or habit, and are willing to give it up i?' the public shall so require ; these will not be controlled by the Rum question ; but the great mass of determined sellers and inveterate tipplers will be. They will fight this battle to the death, aad give no quarter if they are vic? tors. Temperance Men of Connecticut! shall the Maine Law stand or fall with you ' An? swer decisively at the Polls ! Tare llorse-I.rrea'a DnaghSMTS. A majority of the Colleges and nominal Universities of our State are now suitors I to the Legislature for donations from the Treasury, and a platoon of Presidents and other influential dignitaries are, or recently have been, in Albany, boring in behalf of one or another of these applications. , Ul? timately, they will all be combined in one general bill, and a desperat? effort made to force them through. We trust this effort will be defeated. We know no valid reason for taxing the People of New-York in support of these institu? tions j we feel the force of many reasons bearing against it. Among the most ob vieus of these is the inevitable want of pro? portion between she services rendered and the bounty received. The College poorest in reputation and in students will naturally be most voracious in its assaults on the Treasury; while that which imparts the moat thorough education will naturally have most individual sapportaad be least anxious to quarter itself on the State. Then the habit of looking to the Treasury instead of its own proper resources far support cann>)t fail to exett a pesnieioas influence. The best President will be, cot he who can best govern and teach, but he who can pull moat wires at Albany aad demonstrate the Great? est powers of section in his annual tbrajs oa the Treasury. Then follows the con? stant aad most baleful multiplication of Ci4j? gts ? already 'thicker tiat. toad* after a?ho?er'?wbereb7 the possibility of at tsehing to any ciip of the w-aMiigs a toler. ?afcl? efficient Faculty is precluded. But Time would fail for the e.mi mention of all the grounds of fatal objection to the system of capricious ft! prodigal bounty to Col? lect s upoii which our Sta'.fl ha* b.en im? pelled. Let us hare a final end of it, a:id that rt BtWlt) If the State- is to cite more to Colleges at all, we insist that it shall do M on the baaia a'ready adopted in the diatriiulion of its btuntj to Academies?the whole sum it thinks proper to give being apportioned among them at so much per puj.il to ei h. Flit we canrot discover any ade mite justi'i cation for distributing public i.iouey to Col'eges on any basis whaterer. We would make the fullest and most liberal provision practicable for Common Schools and m ike a fair allowance for the due education of Teachers in Acadeiniea and Normal Schools, and there stop. We think the Peop e, if allowed to vote directly on the subject, would say No to any proposition to tax them for the purpose of giving a 1 liberal Education,'so called, to some two or three thousand youths drawn in good part from the more fortunate classes, and we believe that in so doing they wuild vote exactly light. We protest against endow? ing colleges with one more dollar from Ihe Treasury of our State. The Alleged Canal Frauds. The Legislative Committee appointed to inquire into the allef ed frauds in the recent Ca Lai lettings harp reported the testimony taken before them, without however showing that such frauds were practiced. George Law sweara that there waa not the slightest collusion be? tween him and Mr. Seymour,thd late State En? gineer ; that no conversation nor negotiations of any kind took place between them on the ;natter i that Mr. Seymour has no interest of any sort in his contract, not he any in the Railroad enter? prise?, or in any other business in which Mr Seymour ta engaged ; and thai no public officer or n ember ol" the Legislature is, to his knowl? edge, in any way interested in the lettings, or has been so interested. Ex-Secretary BmOBOAH testifies to the same points. A. B. Dickinson, ? bidder and contractor, testifies that he knows ot nothing en which the suspicion of personal interest or of fraud on the part of any member of the late Canal or letting Boards could bo grounded. Francis H. Rugules, late Auditor of the Canal Department, gives the same testimony, and ao do all the witnesses eiarninod aa to that queation. Attorney.General Chatfikld is the chief party who testifies to any ?fter or refusal of a bribe, and he,?doomed as he is to have his vir? tue assailed by such temptations,?swears that on* Calvin T. Chamberlain offered him a thou? sand dollar bill to get for him a reasonable amount of work. This proposal Chatfield rejected, and opposed Mr. Chamberi.ain's bid when before the Board. They were, however, supported by Mr. Foi i.ett ami finally ChahBIBLAIII got about 100,000 worth of wurk, Mr. Chatfield not see? ing fit to expose his rascality before the Board, and in fact, is rather sorry to tell of it now. Mr. Follktt also sweara that Mr. Stillsom offered hiru two thousand dolla.s in behalf of J. W. Gooomcit, aa a bribe for section No. 20?, but Stillsoh was sent off with a tlea in his ear, and Goodrich got no contract at all. The same Stillson, who haa for some time been, and still is, Engineer of tho Western Diviaion, and who was present with the Board when it was decided to whom the contracts should beawarded, states that they began with the lowest bidder in each case and went through the whole list of proposers, discussing their offers and competen? cy to execute them. More attention was paid to the personal qualifications and ability of the bidder than to the security offered. The job given to"G borge Law is the most difficult ever let in the State, requiring a heavy outlay in tools and machinery belore commencing it. Mr. Law's offer waa ?46,000 below the Engineer's esti? mate, and lower, Mr. Stillson thinks, than the work ca,n bo done. As far, then, as the evidence goes, there is a complete failure to establish any iraud or corruption oa the part of the officers engaged. It is, however, abundantly proved that con tracts were awarded on political grounds. Mr Charles Cook testifies that the Attorney-Gene? ral propoaed in writing to a meeting of his (Cook's) fnenda in the Board, where Lieut. Gov i n i ii waa present, " that if they would agree to allot to Georoi Law contracta for work to the amount of f 1,500,000, and allow Lt.Gov. Church to take care of his friends in the West, and vote those two through the Board first, and divide the balance of the work between the two politi? cal partiea equally, that then he would join in making the allotment. and stated that thia pro? position was a m? 711a 1 1. This proposal the members present declined, and so returned an antwtr to Chatfield" "A second note was received from the Attorney General by the Lieut. Governor, which he read to the members present. In thia note Mr. Chatfield proposed that contracts for work to the amount of ?1,000,000 be awarded to Gkobob Law, and that Church be allowed to take care of his friends in the West, the balance of the work to be di? vided equally between the two political parties ; this being done he would join 111 making the al? lotment and help carry il through the Board, and said this waa hia ultimatum." Theae pro? posals were declined tnd another allotment made, whereat Chatfield, in his indignant virtue, announced that ha should apply for relief on the ground of the unconatitutionality of the law' This identical Chatfield, according to the testimony of K. E. Pats, a Whig who obtained section '255 at 18 cents per cubic yard, for embankment, proposed to allot that section to E. Peshi.is Smith, another bidder, and also a Whig, at 20 eenta. This shows that he took a reasonable view of things, and was disposed to give all parties a fair grab at the spoils, If his fstecds could bot have a good chance with the rest. There is, then, no more doubt that political considerations were powerful in determining the awards than there 1a that they were not in all cases made to the lowest bidders. Bat, bei?, re complaining of these facts, we most inquire whether, as the* stand, the contracts aie, on the whole, favorable to the m'.erests of the State. We are persuaded that they are. Th<y are so made that they will bo executed without the probability of any application ta tie Legislature for additional allowances, and at an aggregate cost conaideraidy inferior to the estimates on which the law for the more speedy eaJargement was based. One witness who went to Albany to attain a coutiact, tPB'irie* tn having leen disgusted with what he rdw there. W'e do not wonder at it.

The u.e atxess. the petty iStiTsguJllg, the fawning an! I) mg that abound on such occasions, are truly d'igii.stirg. But we see no reason to suppose that they were more abundant or more nauseous at this tin e thin at others. Indeed, it is our conviction that in point of rascality and contempt iMe chicanery the great crowd of applicants and agents gathered at Albany by the Cinal lettii...-??, \v*s rather better than that usually assembled fHf such purpose*. This was due to the fact that the usual gang of harpies was then in creased by the presence of a sreat variety o! lawyers, editors and other gentlemen compara? tively green in the business. We are far from desiring to apologize for anybody who has sinned in this connection, but those who attempt to fix upon the Whig members of the late Board the charge of bribery and corruption in these let tings, have utterly failed of their f urpose. Deci? dedly, the party who comes off worst from this trial is Hon. Luvt S. Chatfielii, the Loco Fcco Attorney-General of tho State. GOV. SkWAhD AND TUE IftlSlI.? The Herald has had several telegrsph dispatches from Washington stating that the Irishmen oi Washington had refused to invite liov. beward to the approaching St. Patrick's Day dinner in that city. The contrary is the fact. The ques? tion was brought up several times, and each time a majority voted to invite Mr. Saward as their truest and moat constant fnead. Fnfortu natefy there are a few Irishmen in Washington so blind in their prejudices that they formerly re lined to drink U'Conuell's health, because he advocated freedom for Americans as well as Irishmen! Guv. Seward has committed no crime by which he expects to escape similar pitiful exhibitions of spite. But the great body oi Irishmen ui Washington know and appreciate their friends. _ j How Town Meetings are Carried.

He had on behalf of that Committee aaked to bs discharged from the conatderation of tho** memorials, because a bill bad been already repotted on the subject. His reason for asking to be discharged bad never been reported in tbe papers, aad the people and Legialatare of Maine had beea alarmed, believing, as tkey do, that the Coaatlttea intended t* sire the subject ao attention at all. He therefore ihoeght it advisable to make this explana? tion. The Private Calendar was then taken up, and 10 bills of no public intasest whatever were or ceied to be eogroased.
