3Q"y Telesraipli. Congressional, WASHING roN, March 7.-Mr. Sumner made a lengthy speech in tho Senate, to? day, on t!ie pending Constitutional amend? ment. In the House, tho reciprocity bill with the British provinces was under "discussion, but no decidion was arrived at. Irater from Europe. NKW YOB*, March 7.-Thc (steamship City of New.

FAITH EXTRAORDINARY-At Zanes ville, Ohio, tLere aro many colored people who liv;? by barbering and other light work. They are, for the most part, au orderly and quiet peo? ple, many, of them religious, having a church of their own, and an ebony minister, of all of which they are justly proud. One cold evening, in a time of great revival in the church, this expounder was delivering a pow? erful appeal on "faith." The groans and sobs of his hearers gave token of its effects on their impressible na? tures. The tears stood upon the dark cheeks of the speaker, his voice quivered like distant thunder, while he emphasized by vigorous blows upon the table. In the midst of all thia, tlie stove, agitated by his jarring blows, rolled over on the floor. Brother Lewis, a very high man in the church, had located himself near the comforter of shins ; he stood ir? resolute, when the voice of his minis ter came to him laden with faith "Pick up de stove, Bradder Lewis, j pic't up de stove, do Lord won't let it burn you." Brother Lewis' mind was filled np with miracles of faith he. had heard that evening, so he yielded to the appeal of his preacher, grabbed the hot stove, but dropped it instantly, and turning his reproach . ful eyes to the disciple of faith, ex? claimed, "Z>? h-/ he worCU" LUDICROUS SCENES IN A CHURCH. An aged clergyman, speaking of tho solemnity attached to the ministerial office, said that during the whole term of forty years that he had officiated therein, his gravity had never been but once disturbed in the pulpit. On that occasion, he noticed a man dir??ctly in front of him, leaning over the railing of the gallery, with some? thing in his hand, which he afterward ^discovered to be a huge chew of to? bacco, just taken from Iiis mouth. Directly below sat a man fast asleep, with his head back and mouth wide open. The man in the gallery was intently engaged in raising and lower? ing bis hand, taking an exact obser? vation, till at last, having got it right, he let fall his quid, and it went plump into the mouth of the sleeper below! The whole scene was so indescribably ludicrous, that for the first and last time in the pulpit, an involuntary smile forced itself upon the counte? nance of tho preacher. "Handkerchief Preaching" is the ? appropriate term applied to a pulpit peculiarity, by the Christian Review: "I notice," says the writer, "a handkerchief habit in the pulpit, which has led me to inquire if the use of that very necessary article is a part of theological training. I notice some ministers take it out of their pockets as they do their sermons, and lay it on the pulpit. Some spread it c it lengthwise through tho middle of the Bible; some roll it up and tuck it under the Bible; some shake it over their heads; some clinch it in their hands as if they were going to throw it at the audience; and some keep crowding it into their pockets and pulling it out again, with a nervous movement, as if they did not know what use to make of their hands. I went once to hear a popular young pre tcher, and as much as half his sermon was made up of pocket hand? kerchief, and the most of the other hal:' was gold watch and bits of poetry." The famous experiment of Perkins, ? in c utting hard steel by a disc of soft iron, waa, not long since, repeated at i the Franklin institute, Philadelphia. : Tho disc used was of steel, similar to tho ie from which small circular saws | are made, but annealed so as to bo ver/ soft. This was mounted on a i sted spindle, furnished with a three- I inch driving-wheel, and the whole j was carefully balanced. The driving wheel was connected by a belt with a 36-inch wheel, on the shaft of which i was a 10-inch wheel, communicating wit i a 48-inch wheel driven by the engine The engine running at 120 turi is per minute, the result of the combination was that the soft steel disc revolved at a speed of 5.000 to 6,000 turns per minnte. At this ve- ? locity, the hardest files were cut into like wood, a shower of sparks and a bla;;o of light being given off during the operation, but the edge of the dist did not show any signs of injury. - h.KEP IN OOOD HUMOR.-It is not j great calamities that embitter exist? ence; it is the petty vexations, the j snail jealousies, tko little disappoint? ments, thc minor miseries, that make i the heart heavy and the temper sour. ; Don't let them. Auger is a pure waste of vitality; it is always foolish, and always disgraceful, except in some ver-' rare cases, when it is kindled by seeing wrong done to another; and ; eve?i that noble rage seldom jnends the matter. PLANTING IN MISSISSIPPI.-One of the best prospects, says the Missis sippian, which we notice for a good cotton crop next year, in Mississippi, is the immease number of laborers, both white and black, which aro being landed at this and other places adjacent. It is estimated by gentle? men who profess to know, that over 1,000 white laborers have been intro? duced into the counties of Coahoma, Tunica and Bolivar. Minnesota imported a good part of tho breadstnffs of her white inhabit? ants down to 1859. In 1865 she fed herself abundantly, and exported 8,112,565 bushels of wheat, with a large quantity of oats. She will grow more and more hereafter, but probably export less, finding it more profitable to export wool, butter, cheese, &c, and to manufacture more and more of the fabrics required to clothe her people. An exchange has the following hint to housewives: We have used a wire clothes-line for over five years. It has not been housed at all, and is just as good as ever. It does not injure the clothes a bit. It is an old telegraph- wire about a quarter of an inch in diameter, ".nd 'galvanized,' that is, coated with zinc. The wire was a present to us, so I do not kno iv what it cost, but can assure you it will pay for everybody to get one. A despatch from Washington says tl lat the Ways and Means Committee have agreed to report a bill providing fo . a tax of five cents per pound on cc :ton, and allowing a drawback on manufactured goods exported; also, a bill exempting from tax all incomes under $1,000, and taxing all above thai sum at a uniform rate of five per cent. A young man in Quincy, Illinois, while at church last Sunday week, caught fire from some matches in his pocket. There being some of "Pha? raoh's serpents" in the same pocket, a grand explosion was the conse? quence. Great consternation existed i in the church for some moments, but no one was hurt save the young man, who Avas somewhat burnt. A Connecticut Yankee is in Wash? ington with a patent labor-saving constitutional amendment machine, ? for the use of members of Congress, warranted to turn out 1,300 amend? ments per hour. He will rarke a 1 fortune. A Southern traveler writes to the Boston Post: "I was gratified to meet with gentlemen from the North investing large amounts of money in cotton plantations, in all directions, within a radius of fifty miles of Jack? son, the capital of Mississippi." The World's special says: The re? cent order of General Spinner, in reference to the return of deposits, it is said will involve one New York city national bank in the payment of one return alone of $363,000. In our London files we find an ac? count of a firm in that city that began business three years ago on a capital of about $650, and failed about three weeks ago for more than $1,000,000. Among the latest wonders in tho animal world, is a talking dog, which has been brought out in Sprinfield, Massachusetts. He can say "Good morning," "How do you do?" and many other tirings as a human being. The editor of a country paper says that he felt called upon to publish Father Lewis' sermon on tho "Lo? cality of Hell," as. it was a question in which nearly all his readers were deeply interested. Au exchange says the people mus-: feel at home now OD the Mississippi, for the steamboats are blowing up every day just as they used to do in the good old times of peace. Rumors are in circulation that a serious difference of opinion exists between the Secretary of the Trea? sury and the Comptroller of the Cur? rency, both in respect to financial policy and the new political phases. \ Two musical curiosities have ap? peared in Paris-a young Italian lady with a fine tenor voice, and a Mexican who plays the flute and the piano ab the same time. Butter and lard should not be kept in the same apartment with kerosene, j as all fats readily absorb and retain | odors, and the fine aroma of butter ! may thus be seriously injured. Now that the curtain has dropped upon the last scene of the rebellion, the radicals are finding fault with the ; after-peace. A Paris correspondent writes that j Patti has accepted at engagement at St. Petersburg, at .?400-$2,000-a ; night. There aro 1,051 students in the \ University of Michigan. It is the1 largest in the country. Funeral Invitation. Thc friends and acquaintances of Mr. ; and Mrs. G. 15.

March 9 THJC COMING PROCLAMATION.-It is stated that the President has pre? pared a proclamation declaratory of the restoration of peace, and of the right of the Southern States and people to representation in the Na? tional Legislature. Mr. Johnson could not select a better time than the present to issue such a proclama? tion. The people expect it, demand it; it will be hailed with acclamations by the masses everywhere, except in those New England districts where the popular mind has been complete? ly perverted by tho teachings of fa? naticism. The radicals aro losing heart. They would not rail so vio? lently against the President if they did not feel his power and fear it. They are conscious that the verdict of the people is against them, and that the supremacy that they gained from the opportunities offered by civil strife is vanishing from their grasp. The fever is over, the pas? sions engendered by war are subsid? ing, tho multitudes aro yielding to the influence of reason, and appre? ciate the policy that is due to the emergencies of the hour. The in? cendiary appeals of demagogues fall, if not unheeded, at least impatiently, on the public ear. All men who re? flect calmly upon the situation ac? knowledge the wisdom and states? manship of the Executive action, and the country is ready to support its Chief Magistrate in the consum? mation of his plan of reconstruction. Such being the popular sentiment, let Mr. Johnson take advantage of it to push the political war with vigor. The bluster of the radicals betrays their weakness. They require the stimulants of noisy wrath to sustain them from drooping at the very crisis of the conflict. They exhibit all the symptoms of desperation, and, after the first ebullition of their frenzy, will come their exhaustion, their hopelessness and complete discomfit? ure. The President can gain noth? ing, may lose much, by temporising. His enemies do not spare him; let him not spare them. He has to deal with fanatics who will use every wea? pon within their reach to annoy, to weaken ano. to crush him. But, sup- j ported by the popular will, be wields au influence that can put down all opposition. He has taken up the gauntlet; now let him call to his aid all the decision and energy of his character and push the battle to an end.-Ne\c York N'?tes. SHIP NEWS. PORT OP CHARLESTON, MARCH 8. ARRIVED YESTERDAY. Steamship Andalusia, Bursley, New York. Steamship Cumberland, Reed, Baltimore. WEXT TO SEA YESTERDAY. Sehr. John Shay, Tilton, 'Wilmington, N. J. Presentment of the Grand Jury Spring Term, 1866. The Grand Jury having considered and examined the various matters of public interest which demand their attention, make the following presentments: Tho Boards of Commissioners of tho District, upon the faithful and zealous dis? charge of whose duties its welfare and prosperity so materially depend, havo boen | unable during the past year, owing to | causes beyond their control, to perform those duties in a manner satisfactory to j themselves or to the public. The Commissioners of Public Buildings ! have been able only, and with tho greatest difficulty, to provide offices for the officers j of the Court; while the Court Houso and jail buildings, so essential to the good | order and preservation of society, aro still ; in ruins, and mu3t remain so until the peo? ple recover, to some extent, from tho ex? hausting war so roccntly waged tor their independence. The Commissioners of Free Schools have been forced to discontinue their labors for want of the usual funds necessary for the support of tho schools; and the Commis? sioners of tho Poor have, for a like reason, been compelled to abandan the poor of the District to tho charity of noighbors, but little removed from pauperism themselves. The public roads, in many parts of the District, ar-i almost impassable, owing to the want of the necessary funds to repair the bridges, the destruction of our old and cherished system of labor, tno ignorance of tho Commissioners, for a long time, as to tba mode of reaching tho negro in his emancipated condition, and tho uncertainty which still exists as to whether the "wards ; of the nation" will be allowed to obey their ] orders. In t'.iis state of things, tbe Grand I Jury cannon censure these boards of public ' officers, but would earnestly urge them to put forth ren jwed and increased efforts to organize their respective departments, and to endeavor, as speedily as possible, to meet the re pjirements of a refined and enlightened community-reminding them that the mac finery of State Government has again been put in motion-that laws j liave oeen o ?acted which are adapted to our changed condition-taxes levied, ap? propriations nade, public offices filled, and that the State, struggling to regain her footing, confidently expects that all her officers will faithfully and earnestly dis? charge their -espective duties. ,VM.
