COT. HOCSrON AXII THE TEAIX-
OHS.
Gov. Houstonhaa retired from the- Gu
bernatorial office in Texas, rather than vio
late his oath to support the Constitution of
the United States. He is preparing an ad
dress to the people of the State, denouncr
iog the treason Convention.
THB TARIFF XHBBOGUO.
The malign effects of secession, and of
the faQore of the Government to collect its
revenues at the month of the Mississippi,
are already manifest in St. Louis, where a
consignment of imported goods has been
received upon which no duties have been
paid. In addition to fraud upon the Gov
ernment, an equal fraud is perpetrated up
on the honest and loyal merchants who
pay the duties established by law. "We re
joice to. learn that measures liavc been set
on foot .by Secretary Chase to collect the
duties on this particular consignment and
to punish the offenders.
CARL SCHURZ, ESQ.
We can hardly believe it possible, as
stated by the correspondent of the Cincin
nati Commercial, that the mission to Lis
bon has been finally refused to Carl
Schurz, or that it is being withheld from
him by reason of any settled determina
tion of Secretary Seward, or the President,
to deny his claims to. an honorable
place in the diplomatic i service.
If anybody has earned such : a place, it is
Mr. Schurz. If anybody is qualified to fill
such a place, it is ha. 'lf anybody carries
with him to Washington. the ardent sym
pathies of the Northwest, it is he. And the
reasons, which were alleged as rendering
it impolitic t > accredit him to Sardinia,
certainly do not exist in the case of Por
tugal. -

ADIOKISTEATIVE POLICY YET UNCE2TAIX.
The plans of (he Executive in regard to the
Southern imbroglio are still wrapped in a dense
mist, all the asstrt.ons of knowing corres
pondents to the contrary notwithstanding.
Report after report emanates here from the
haunts of politicians, but none will stand the
test of careful invefitigatioiL Even parties
connected with the Administration, and in
constant intercourse with the President, con
fess to ignorance 'as to his intentions. Cer
tain it is that only the question of the aban
doning of Fort Sumter tuu been paased upon
affirmatively by tbe Cabinet, and has been
resting In the President’s bonds for ultimate
action, for some days; and that an informal
agreement, and not a formal armistice, as
some have called it, has been arrived'at be
tween the Secretary of State and the South-.
exn Commissioners, In pursuance of which,
aggressive measures on elthereide will be re
frained from, until the Federal Government
shall have determined upon a definite line of
policy. Many, otherwise well Informed out
siders, firmly believe that the order to evacu
ate Fore Sumter was issued on Wednesday
last- None, however, have any ; positive
knowledge to that effect
ax rxarrnoßizss season.
The Charleston story ttat Major Anderson
and his command will embark on a New Toik
steamer to-morrow, is credited by few only, as
not the slightest symptom of It* authenticity
is visible here.
THE SOUXHBSSr EHBAEST.
The agreement between Seward and the
Bon them Commissioners was made'by their
respective Secretaries, and much pains was
tok* n not to impart to that proceeding any
official character, In order not to imply a
cognition of the revolutionary embassy.
Two of the Montgomery ministers have left
lor New Toik, to return by the time they
Mr. Seward to be ready with his an*
imr.
WHAT WILL THE INSWTB EE ?
A* to the character of this, varying rumors
are afloat. Those that still believe in the vin
dication of the honor and dignity of the Gov
ernment, assert that it will consist in execu
tive acts bearing upon the Southern forts.
Others who ring the changes on peaceable so
lution, claim to know that Hwfli be in elabo
rate diplumaiic document, denying the right
both of the rebels to make any demand for the
delivery of the Federal property, and of the
Government to comply with it, but opening
the door to the settlement of this difficulty by
a National Convention, with a squint at a
peaceful separation.
However this may be, It is undeniable that
every wind from Administration circles blows
In the direction of the latter contingency*
end I reiterate hero, what 1 slated positively
acme days since, that but little faith remains,
in her highest political spheres. In the possi
bility of a reconstruction of the Union. Hence
the present Administration wili not in

Kitchens and Closets*
We presume, If the choice were offered to
any of out housekeepers which tingle room :* a
the house they would prefer, if they could r *
tain bat one, that the kitchen would be chos* n
by nine out of ten, leaving the one tenth 1 9
be shortly; thereafter starved into conformity
with the rest. • '
Parlors, even double parlors, will do- Very
well and perhaps In society are deemed indi *
pensable. Dear Mrs, Qnn with her rqjsewoc*!
sets, ever la linen suits, whose parlor*, arte
opened only for the occasional visits of the
duster, would be shocked to think o sp/iricg
from her esUbUahmenfc, rooms into whiehsle
never sees her children go, without ash udd r
of alarm, and where she once nearly fainted sit
discovering Old Gnu fast asleep supine upon
the sofa, with his boots on.
And yet we protest that the Gnu family owe
their chiefest comfort tp an apartment iar le.-a
conspicuous, where red-armed Biddy reigns
supreme and where Mrs. Gnu herself onjy ea
ters under protest' Think of the Gnu family
without nkildien, Suppose Gnu failed in his
wheat venture and got gored by the bulls, ard
lost marble front and Fortunatus purse, at oj .0
fell swoop, and resolutely set ofSinto the new
country tohulld anew home, what room, won d
they take with them ?
Not the parlors, even if the red flag spare 1
them the tapestry carpet* and rich glmcracl-s
of that domain; not the drawing room or bou
doir, but the honest, warm hearted, generous
httefcn. It Is the only room of the ploneir
wherethebedaudthe settle and the cooking
stove consort together, and the baby’s crib
and the flour barrel are in loving contiguity.
We own to a thorongh love and esteem for
the kitchen, and we write this to prote.t
against the injustice this leading domestic in
stitution is continually. receiving from those
who call themselves architects and home
builders. Enter almost at random the tene
ment houses of Chicago today, and in not one
in s hundred ' shall you find the kitchen bos
fair play. Great pains ora takpu for an ample
hall, land parlors spacious as the area of the
boose permits.* A stunted bed room is per
mitted, and perhaps none at all, in the very
place where the housekeeper would desire to
find one. .The dining room is after the same
ambitious pattern, andbeyondyou are ushered
into the kitchen.-
If your party be a large one it is doubtful if
there will be room for you to do more than
look through the doorway into an apartment
you would bcglad to believe is only a good
sired pantry. Don’t deceive yourself, tbia is
the kitchen, and there against the wall, too
thin to allow your wife’* largest platter room
to lie on the shelf, is the pantry I! And that
door opens directly into the yard, without the
intervention of a shed, the designer of this
edifice, perhaps wisely, deeming that no escape
can be too speedy from an apartment so hor
rible as this must be when the sooty gnome
of the domain Is up to “baking heat”
This is a fair presentment, we leave It to onr
house-hunters, of the tenement houses, of
Chicago. We wish it were confined to these,
and yet we know of Instances of houses built,
by their occupant*; ample and roomy in front,
with just this lam nt&ble failure at the very
point where the comfort of the house begins.
Do we build houses only for our visitors ? Do
we live pinched, “ cabined, cribbed, confined”
that we may seta few more chairs for compa
ny and lay down in our parlor-carpets a few
yards more than onr neighbors. . '
Npw teU us if this Is really the rule'and ob-
Jcct of domestic life. ‘ We fear that somebody
haa dealt foully with community in general,
by persuading the designing men who erect
these shaky palaces of lath, whose deciduous
plaster fall* on onr -heads, whose doors only
shut under protest, and are only to be opened
by the battering-ram,' whose windows chettcr
garrulously to every vagrant brecte, whose
roou grow Iwh, like a Dutch housewife’s gar-'
den, whose floors creak to our feet and under

whom also devolves the doty of prcsentlnirtoe an

therefore feel it incumbent upon them before pro-,
ceedlog to the details In relation to the progress of
the Library for the post year, to express toclr re
gret that the removal from Chicago of the former
Chairman. Charles L. Thomas, Eeq., has deprived
them of his valuable services in that .capacity for
the lost few weeks, (during which the vacancy lets
been so far as passible, filled by the present occst
fiant of that position.) a deprivation experienced
q a peculiar degree ux the preparation of this rtv
port And the Committee will remark In the same
connection, that this win measurably explain why. ’
although they believe they may congratulate them
selves on satisfactory progress ia this department,
they are still obliged to leave much unperformed
which they can only present by way of suggestion
to their successors.

an increase of fonr hundred volumes over the num- :

Nor is the improvement confined to the increase '
of the number of volumes, since inlcomparing toe I

proportionably gratifying results. .

Bence it will be seen that in proportion ;to the ■
number of volumes added to toe library by pur-;
chase during the last three, years, the amount ex- .
pend'd this yeir livery much smaller than in either
.of the two others. - ' T -'
Thus the number of volumes purchased during
the current year is three hundred and thirty in ex
cess of tho&e.obtotnedin toe «-une way in 1859-60, ’
and five hundred and twenty-three over, the num
ber bought in 1553-&9, yet the additional expense. 1
is but $167.93 as compared'with the. former, and .
$S9U>i as eompared.with the latter year. Or, to' ‘
place it In another point of view, seven hundred
. and seven volumes were purchased darise t hetwo
years ending March Si. 1860, at a cost of g1.X82.25, .
and seven hundred volumes during the i
year ending March 23, 1861, at on:«xpendlture.of .*

It might be suggested that this marked improve-‘I

for the current year are leas valuable thanihose 1 "

Is.so Cir from being toe case rthat the CommUtee-t

- This committee must be permitted, however, to
declare toeir conviction of toe usefulness of early

regret that the absence of their former chafrman,

‘ 'here'the thanks of tho Executive Committee* not
only to the donors but to Mr. Everson, through
whose kindness the books took the direction they

ofßbston, It being the third edt lon of that curious

take this opportunity, to tender him the, acknowl-:,

brary during the current year, but yonr Committee
are not confident that auto Is the fact, and are quite
i that if such is toe fact, there has been no
■-j larger number presented.

’ aiudlcloas policy for the Executive Committee to:

works after the Immediate demand for;them has
: sUckencd. The library is naturally divided into :
.'two departments; the one of works for refetence,.
. thi other of those for circulation. The circulating.
. d-tpartment has of late assumed more importance
than, perhaps, ever before, and requires a corres
ponding degree ofattention and care.' Of toe more
popular publications' there exists a necessity of
procuring quite a number of copies, and the means
ottbe Associations© already severely caxedto sup-:
ply the demand wnlch, it. may with confidence be
asserted, has always exceeded the ability , oi, toei
