A delegation from Virginia appeared before the Senate Finance Committee to day in support of a bill authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase three millions secured obligations on real estate of Bank of Virginia. The ob ject was to assist the bank by lending it Gov eminent credit.

After hearing the party the committee decided to report a bill adversely, on the ground that the Government cannot engage in any bank enterprises outside of the National Banking act. Committee Work, As soon as the committee disposes of the Tariff bill they will take up Teuton's bill to correct abuses In the collection of customs. It Is the intention of the committee to make the bill quite stringent. The Senate Territorial Committee will re consider its action on the bill relative to poly' gamy. Senator Cragln, who has had charge of the bill relative to Utah, will amend so as to make it conform to the views of the Gov eminent on that subject.

The Ways and Means Committee having determined to reduce taxation below the point indicated by the Secretary of the Treasury, they were engaged this morning in consider ing the articles upon which a reduction will be made. Beamier EdnsaaOa' Beaolntloa. In the Senate, Mr. Edmunds' resolution came up, when Senator Patterson, who is a member of the Foreign Relations Committee, made a strong speech, and declared that un dor no circumstances should our Government back down from its position. This is the general feeling of the Senate and It is growing stronger.

It is understood that the administration occupies the same ground, and that there is no difference of opinion among the members of the Cabinet on this subject. The course of the English papers and the foreshadowed aotion of the British Government are regarded as attempts to break down the American can before the Geneva Conference, and to frighten our Gov eminent from its position. MASSACHUSETTS Important Bewe Bnmored Beparatloai rflXuaasla fraoa the Brltlak Kasplre. Boston, Feb. 9.

A special despatch from Halifax, Nova Scotia, to the Boston Adverliier says It is reported on trustworthy authori ty that a treaty exists and has been signed by the British and Canadian Governments, for the separation of this Dominion from the British empire. The term were agreed opon when the act of confederation was passed by the Imperial Parliament, but the treaty was not to take effect for someyears.unlen the British government saw necessity for action sooner. Ever since the treaty the British troops have been gradually withdrawn from Canada, until now there is scarcely a soldier in the Dominion outside of Halifax. There is no doubt that should the difference between Great Britain and the United Stales become serious the British government will at once publish the treaty and proclaim the independent of Canada, and by that means be relieved of the necessity of defending these colonies against tho United States should war ensue.

Auspicious Opening of the Campaign of 1872 The election for City Auditors and officers of the several Wards of the City, took place yesterday, resulting in a substantial victory for the Republican ticket. In the 6th, 7tb, 8th and 9th Wards, the Republicans gain a member of Common Council in each in the 8rd and 4th an Assessor in each, and two Judges of Election in the 3rd and 9 th Wards. The result of the election oj compared with the last City Election in October, 187C, shows a Republican gain of 170 votes. Considering the large number of com plimentary votes cast for Democrats by Republicans, throughout the city, the triumph may be put down as a moat gratifying one in every respect. The contest in the 7th Ward was hotly contested, and if the Republican voters had presented a united front for their candidate for Select Council, there would have been a Republican gain of a member of Select Council for that ward.

Accident. A correspondent of the Eaglt gives the following account of an accident to a Mrs. Doreey, formerly of this city, which occurred near Womelsdorf on Tuesday evening: "Mr. Dennis Doreey and wife, who formerly resided in Reading, determined to move to Lebanon, and started on foot, by way of the turnpike. On Tuesday evening they turned into Mr.

Frank Miller's barn, three quarters of a mile west of this place, to lodge for the night. In endeavoring to pass from the barn floor to the hay mow, Mrs. Dorsey had to pass the head of the staircase leading into the entry below. Here she made a misstep and tumbled down the Bteps, and frac tured her left leg. The case was brought to the notice of 'Squire Eintzer, who at onco summoned medical aid, and had the unlucky woman taken to the Berks County Hospital." Dcpbez and Benedict's Minstrels.

This celebrated troupe appeared at Keystone Opera last evening, to one of the largest audiences ever assembled to witness a performance by a minstrel troupe in this city, The entertainment was excellent throughout, and reflected credit on the "burnt cork" profession. We do not wish to particularize, as the entire company! gave general satisfac tion. Order was well preserved during the evening, and all left the hall highly delighted with the performance. MES8I13.
