Extract from tlie Report of Hie Senate Committee on I'ost offices and Post BojmI. on tbr t'lnim of licwrje 4 linr penainsr Jr. Your Committee have examined the reDort made in August. 1S30, by Mr, Barclay, from the Committee on Post office ana l'ost lioa'Js, ana wmcn accompanied the act of 1H Z7. Th'ia rejort, taken in conjunction with the act itself, furnishes a clearer index to the true in tent and meaning of Congrtss in passing the law than can be obtained in any other way, and certainly justifies the belief that it via intended to increase the compensation for Vie extra as well as the regular services of the route.

In funher support or this view, your Committee would state that the Committees on Postoffice and Post Roads, in both Houses of Congress, having refer ence to the action of Postmaster General Brown in this matter, as made known in his aforesaid report, the said Committees being composed of the identical members who, at the previous session of Congress, had reported in favor or tne act or laov, the following resolution Resolved, That the act of tbe 3d of March, 18 57, entitled An act for the relief of George Choi penn in jr, shall be construed eoaato allow saia Chorpenn iDg, for the extra services mentioned in the first section, a pro rata increase of pay, to be calculated upon the basis of pay allowed by the eanie act for services under the contract.

Davis, J. D. Atkins, House Committee. Hasn't the "Central Organ" been rather severe on a good many Democrats who arc now doubly sanctified as having been Rebel, and sonic who would have readied sanctifieation if they had had the pluck THE S. 8TE1MEU ESS ESS EE.

The fear seems to be increasing that some disaster has befallen the U. S. Steamer Tennessee upon which the San Domingo commission, their Secretaries, and several scientific gentlemen and reporters of the pre 33 were embarked. It is now twenty four days since she steamcl out from Xew York for her destination, and not a word hai besn heard concerning her. She has not touched at Havana or any other port, so far as known, and she has not been reported spoken to by any vessel sailing over her The voyage under steam should have been performed in from eight to ten days at farthest and supposing an accident to have happened to her engine, the.voyagc under sail aloneshould have been completed long since We do not like to anticipata any thing worse than an accident to the machinery, by which the voyage been delayed, but time enough Jim elapsed since her departure to cau apprehension of moro disaster.

The Washington Chronicle of yesterday, understood express the opinion of the Navy Department, remark. dislike to rano groundless fearn, but there is no use in concealing the fact that some uneasiness is felt in regard to the safely of the ITnitcd States steamer Tennessee, which left New York' on the l'Jth with the United States Commissioners, bound for San Domingo. "That some accident Una occurred there can be no doubt, but wo trust that, whatever it may be, iU ill effect will he confined imily to delay in the voyage of the vessel, and that all her passengers have eseaied the jH rilsof the deep." KELt' EDlCATIUX. One of the lest informed men of whom wo have ever heard (says the New York Star), a man who had read few books, but 1 not ruly made them his own, but had from the materials so treasured up, thought out many a problem that puzzlo lbc men of the schools, was a simple Scotch shepherd in the wild Australian Bush. He had no education the school.

beyond the veriest rudlm nt, but in twenty years of shepherd lie on the hills of Scotland, and half a dozen year in the Colonies, he had amassed a wonderful amount of information, and that too of a sort useful not only to himself, but to others. A keen observer' or nature and of the things she put under hi notice every day, he was an reference to not only new coiners, inquiring concerning the peculiarities of he country, but to those engaged in scientific research. In his hut in Australia he kept all the books ho had ever owned, and nearly all he had ever read. An odd library it was f.r a poor shepherd's house in the heart of a new country. A Bible, Shakspearc, emptx Ire's Classical Dictionary, a translation of the nrrn V.

Nature, Burns' loen.s, ls. Ia. Hisl tory, Johnson's Lives tho Poets Goldsmith's Miscellanies, and hi by Forster, and an old book on botany These were all, but they had WMv to give this man a culture far bevnn.i that of most men in higher stations than himself. Scarcely a grass, or shrub, or tree grew in the colony that he could not classify; not an anini.il or bird, whoso habits he was not ac quainted with. "Much reading, but not many books," had developed the man's powers or thought.

Chae observation and the habit of applying the information he had extracted from books to the circumstances aud objects of his daily life had made such a nnin as savans might envy. This sort of education is what our workingmen need. Let such hooks be put in their way as will elicit thought, and they will soon apply thnt tbougbt to the work and circumstances of every aay me, ami we tuuu uuvo a i 1 1 1 clss3 of men of hardy intelligence such as the schools cannot boast of, but who will be a credit to the nation and to themselves.

It is stated in a note attached to the proceedings that several Pennsylvania members requested the reporter to state that they voted nay" because they considered the bill too far down on the list to be reached this session. The consideration of the bilf to remove the Brooklyn navy yard was resumed. Tho measure was opposed by Mr.

Potter, Mr. Ward and Mr. Calkin, and sup orted by Mr. Scofield and Mr. Starkweather, but pending the discussion the morning hour expired and the bill went over.

Mr. Kelley announced the death of his colleague, lion John Covode, pro nouncing an eulogy, as did also several other members, including Messrs. Mer cur and Getz when, after the adoption of the usual resolutions, the House ad journed. Ik his inaugural President Grant laid down the wise maxim that by a rigid execution of all laws passe I by Congress, the retention of just and the repeat of bad laws would bo most certainly so cured. This profound iolicy has just received a signal illustration by the action of the able Postmaster General The Chorpenning claim, made by i Democrat, admitted by a Democratic Postrviastty General, paid by a Demo cratic Secretary of.thc Treasury in part and kept alive for nineteen years by that eminent Democratic lobbyist, Jerry Sneak Black, was ordered to be adjusted by a resolution having the force and authority of law in the last hours of a Republicnn Congress.

Mr. Creswell carried out the policy of the President to the letter. Ho obeyed the law which him to adjust this claim, and itsenormity was instautly apparent. The same Congress warned by tho award made on the evidence, and tho only evidence Mr. Creswell was per mitted by the terms of their resolution to consider, promptly undone the wrong into which the lobby headed by Jerry Black had tricked it.

It is seldom so fair a proof of the wisdom of an Execu tive ha been furnished. And it Is altogether honorable to him and to the Postmaster General, that they execute the laws, leaving to others the work of repeal and annulment. Look Out for Squalls. It seems that the frequent strikes in the coal regions have induced somo operators to turn their attention toward procuring more reliable (and perhaps cheaper) labor than that at present employed. A reporter for the American Press Association, in a dispatch dated Pottsville, 0th February, gives as reliable information that a contract for coolie laborers to work Schuylkill colliery ha been signed, and that the "heathen Chinee," or at least the first butch of the pig tail family will arrive about the 1st of May.

The miners in the Schuylkill region are a rather rcckles set of men, take them as they run, and we may anticipate lively times when Celestials encroach upon what tliey consider their manor. About IIan oino. Whatever may be our opinion of legal strangulation' the fact remains, not to be gainsayed, that murderers are hanged or not hanged according to luck, or for some other reason quite independent of their crime. Here is writer in one of our exchanges who wants to know why ilanlon va hanged, while Iteddy the Blacksmith was out on bail and is in no more danger of being hanged than the most innocent person in the community.

TribxmcA Mr. Hoar's bill, to provide a national system of education, is not likely to pass. The chief value of the debate upon it is to direct publio attention to a deplorable state of ignorance prevailing at the South, and possibly the necessity for the General Government to give some temporary aid to start a common school education system, in the South ern States. The strongest opiection against the bill is, it proposes, instead of stimulating the states to greater exertion, to take the matter entirely from such as have not provided free schools. and place it under control of the Gov ernment.

The fear of amendment plunging the House into endless debate on the tariff reduction and abolition of the internal revenue taxes was tho cause of the de feat of the first step taken in the House this morning towards the abolition of the odious income tax. Very much interest was shown as to the result of the vote on the main question of going into committee ot the whole on the bill When it was announced, there was an immense clapping of hands by the ma jority, who evidently thought it a great victory. Mr. Hoooer. who has churire of the bill, will make another trial somo day next week, when it is hoped he win succeed in getting the matter uetore the House.

The eulogies upon the late Hon. John Covode in the House to day were of more marked interest than any which have occupied the attention of the House since the death of Hon. Thaddeus Stevens and Hon. Henry Winter Davis, wiiose companion ami compeer llr, Covode was while they lived. The President sent the following nora inations to the Senate to day John B.

Kenncy, collector of internal revenue First District of Pennsylvania: Wm. J. Pollock, collector for Second District of Pennsylvania. The Berlin Bflsslou. The House Committee on Foreign Affairs, at a meeting held to day, had up the special message of the President on raising tho Berlin mission to one of the lirst cluss.

The committee seem to be a good deal divided upon the subject It is urged that if the Berlin mission is increased in point of dignity and salary, so ought the mission to St. Petersburg and other places. Members urc of the opinion that to single out the German Confederation, while other great powers are overlooked, would he construed as an affront.

in nis communication to tne rtcnatc on luesday with reference to San Domingo, the President savs Admiral Lee wrote to the Secretary ot the Navv from San Domingo, January 11, 1871: "I would like to wait here for the commis sion, but think it best to bo near the Captain General of Cuba." XSow, as Havana Is but two or three lays' sail from San Domingo, it would seem that Admiral Lee waited in the Bay of Sam an a until a few days since ior tne arrival or tho commissioners. and that they had not arrived at the time of his departure for Havana. The Tennessee must, therefore, be de layed somewhere between New York and the Bay of Samaua. it is now twenty five days since the steamer Tennessee sailed with the San Domingo expedition. The time to Samana is from five to seven days, and from three to four days from Samana to Huvauu.

A message received from the latter place yesterday reports no tidings yet received. An order was given by the President to Admiral Poor to send a dispatch boat to Havana as Soon us the Tennessee arrived. This boat should have reported at Havana over eleven days ago. The Tennessee is reallv on her trial trip, having been rebuilt and with new engines, and has never been on so long or dangerous a trip as the present one. it is leured that she has had trouble whu ner engines, and lias Peen compelled to resort to canvas, and some in telligence is hourly expected.

The President and Secretary of State have been worried about it for over a week. and when it was rumored on Wednes day afternoon that she was lost It made such an impression on the former that he gave up his dinner party and denied himself to visitors.

The entries for the July and August meetings at tne Mammoth l'ark course, Long Branch, closed on the 1st of Feb ruary, but the secretary has waited for entries by mail, and the last were not completed until vesterdav.

Feb. 10. The Right Honorable Earl De Grey and Ripon, Lord President of Her Maj estv's Council. Sir John Rose, Sir John Mandonald. Sir Edward Thornton, with one centleman learned in ana an authority on international law, will sail irom e.nfiMftnu ior nasumitiuu Thev are commissioned to sit with the memhers of the ioint international com mission on the Alabama claims and the Canadian fisheries question, and other subiects of disnute.

His Grace the Duke of Argyle will probably follow in a short space of time. The British government desired that the commission snouia consist of onlv three members, but the gov ernment at Washington insisted on ten, and England yielded. London. Feb. 93 p.

m. The Queen onened the session of the houses of Par liament to dav in person. The Lords and Commons mustered in full force, and there was a larcre attendance of spec tators. The usual military and civic (lisolav was made. The weather was fine, and great crowds of people wit nessed the procession.

The Queen's presence was the cause of an unprecedented attendence and disnlav outside and within the House. The ladies crowded the galleries and many were on the floor. The Duke of Argyll also appeared early in the ses sion, and was the obiect of undisguised curiosity. He was followed by the Lord Chancellor and the members oi foreign legations. An oriental princess next appeared She was magnificently arrayed in jewels ana gorgeous robes, ana attracted uni versal attention.

The Queen arrived at 2 p. m. with her children. She wore black velvet. At the entrance of the royal family the House rose.

As soon as the Queen hjid taken a seat on the throne the Commons were summoned to the bar of the House, and came in with the usual unseemly scramble. The Lord Chancellor read Her Majesty's speech, and at its conclusion the Queen departed and the sitting was suspended. (In the return of the members to the House of Com mons, Gladstone rose and gave notice of a bill altering religious tests. Mr. Cardwell also also gave notice of a bill providing for the reorganization of the army.

Tho House of Lords met again at live o'clock. The Marquis of Westminster moved an address to the Queen, and Earl Rosebury seconded it. The Duke of Richmond hoped their Lordships would De unanimous in voting tne aaurees. The Lords then adjourned. In the House of Commons an address was moved bv Major Hamilton, and seconded bv Samuel Morley.

Disraeli made some remarks on the address, in the course of which he crit icised tho policy of the government. He advocated armed neutrality and final pacification, which would exclude all germs of hostility. He lamented the inertia of the government in July last, when it was able to influence both bel ligerents. The value of its efforts to procure the withdrawal of Princo Leo pold from the candidacy of the Spanish throne could not but be admitted but it was then possible for the government to wltnnold rance irom war py niniing at armed neutrality, and employing its acknowledged influence on Prussia to induce her to forbear. He was also se vere in his comments on tho course which Emrland was made to take on the Black Sea uuestion.

Mr. Gladstone made an able speech in support of the address and replied to Disraeli, lie denied that mere was any need of the armed neutrality of last year. To advise 1'russta against ine Hohenzollern candidacy was going to the extreme limit of international right to interfere. The neutralization of the Black Sea had lost its importance to England since the Crimean war, and its maintenance had been abandoned oy Frauco. Reforrinc to American topics, he de nounced the hostile attitude of Senator Sumner and others towards England, so unlike the attitude assumed towards other powers, and recommended that it be encountered witn iorpcarance auu contempt yet passions might be aroused which could not easilv be allayed, and therefore he hoped for the resumption of negotiations lor tne settlement oi tne questions between England and Amer ica.

In the meantime, in view of the relations of with foreign coun tries, be approved tne proposed increase of the military forces of the Kingdom. He believed England's true policy was non intervention abroad, the study of domestic questions, and the observance of neutral rights and obligations. He begged the House would not fetter the government's liberty of action or doubt tor a moment its aim to secure peace with honor and safety to the country The address was agreed to and the House adjourned. London, Feb. 5.

The followinsr Is tho text of the speech delivered bv her aiujesiy ictoria, at tne opening of the session of Parliament, to day "jay ana ucmicmcn; Xiio relations sustained by our Government with foreign countries continue to be of a peaceful character, and I constantly re ceive assurances irom tneir Govern ments or their good will and friendship. I witness with great pain and irrlef. on both foreign aud domestic crounds. the deplorable and calamitous war which isstill maintained between German and France. Every exertion was used by our ov erument to prevent it at the outset, and for the furtherance of the interests of peace a conference was held in London.

from which I still hope that satisfactory results will arise. "1 also hope that the armistice which now exists between the belligerent Pow ers may eventually result iu the establishment of a permanent peace. "With reference to the questions which are Still Pending between nnr Government and the United States, the recent negotiations at Washington re veal a dlsjHisition to discuss practically tne existing dilllculties between the two countries, in so far as these ditler enees relate to the question of the Canadian fisheries, there is every probability of an early and amicable settlement, aud I indulge in tho hope that such a result will speedily lead to a satisfactorv and agreeable settlement of the other questions now pending between the two nations."
