THE OODENSBURGTI, N. Y. MaroH «i>, 1801. THI MIW1. Wm. Clupp, of Ht. Albans, hM been ap |M)intod Collector at Burlington, vt - Thv African »lave trad© has Iwn pro- hibitud in tho permanent Constitution of the Confmlorato Htatea; Georgia, Ala- bama, MiHgliwlppi and i/oumiana voting for prohibition, and South (Carolina and P orida voting against it. Duitding No. II6, Nassau street, was hunted Itwt night, loss $60,000. The oc- eupantn wer« Taylor's renta\irant, Griffin, importer of book binder's materials, Mer- ry's museum and Mercantile agency. A Washington special dispatch of this morning (29th) says Klsha Whittelwey has accepted the unit Omtrolcmhip of the Treasury. There i* no truth in the statement that troops an* ordered to lnnd at Fort Pieken*. The llrooklin hail left IVnancoln and it was KupiHtflod she had gone to Key West to obtnin prt»tisions. THI oAvtn OF If we look from tlio i-fleet to tho cause —from the surface of things to their in- terior from the outward act to the in- ward motive which prompted tho act, we shall without doubt discover that se- cession was caused by the selfishness of the Houth. Selfishness pervades all de- part menta of life, and controls in a great degree all its husin«*s relations. The merchant, minister, lawyer, doctor, me- chanic, men of every avocation and pro- fession are alike guided and actuated more or less by this same spirit of self- agrandizemont. To a certain extent this law of selfishness or looking out for No. one, is not only right, but commendable, in as much as by it we are excited to toil and labor for the necessaries of life and the preservation and comfort of our fami- lies, and thyse immediately associated with us by tho ties of kindred, but like all other Mewing* it is ltahle to abuse. Tho cau#c of all the horrid atrocities which have Ite^n committed since time began, and which have lain waste thou- sands upon thousands of cities, and spilled their treasures, and in the curling flames have hurled tho bodies of hapless vic- tim!*, was the spirit of selfishness. Some Alexander's thirst for ambition was to IH< gratified, or some devotee to reli- gion iniiHt defend their church. And the Hume rule* apply to us, to day, individu- itlly and tis a nation. The Houth was selfish when she begun the agitation concerning the dissolution of the Union—not that sho had no love for the prosperity and perpetuity of the I'nion, or thnt within its broad folds sho could not And happiness and peace but because beyond its pale King Cotton could more completely triumph and this sel- fish interests be realized. The Houth was not alnrmed in relation to the inroads of free speech and free piv« UJNHI the peculiar institution, so niih'h IIH rtho WIVH deluded in the belief th it disolving the ties which have united us o long, she could build up a great cm- pi »v of slave HtateH, stretching abroad in ••vrry direction, and enfolding under its darkening wing* the fair island of Cuba, which could l»e easily converted into tho service of slavery, and the African slave tnrle IK' permanently reinstated. Thin him l>een their dream for years, and thi i r orators have dwelt upon tho theme w itii n devotion worthy of a better cause. And what is the condition of the coun- try to-day. This mighty temple of lilierty uml freedom, for the oppresseed of all nstions, is tottering at if* foundations. \V«' had sup|M>m*l that it was not built iiI»<>,» the sands of circumstances, which tlif diverse winds and storms of frenzy ;tn<l funatieism might easily wash away, but we had ever regarded its foundations rtrm and durable as monumental brass, timl its chief corner stone laid and ce- ini 'ited in truth, justice tyid equality. Dim and shadowy indeed are the visions of future prosperity. We are punning through tho dark ages of our country's history ; an eclipse is upon us, covering the disk of our nation's glory, nnd all the nations are witnessing it. We trust it is passing away and that tho brightness of our ancient glory will re- iiirn again. WKNDH> LOT. [Oorrospondonce of the ADTAJICI.] Talking of married life, Aunt Bridget, I am glad you have broken the ice. Do you know that the girls and I have been anxious to learn your opinion, before risk- ing our interests in that uncertain barque called matrimony;, but we have been so 'fraid of coming tn contact with \ Uncle Potcr's\ frown and nod, his court-mar- tial decisions, ho is so inflexible in his way, you know, why we feel just like so many mice which have got into the wrong cupl>oard, peeping about for some crevice to raako their oscajpe,—when we have the misfortune to set our.eyes on his Iron-will phiz. Besides \Rambler\ has givoii \ Uncle Peter's\ description of wedded life to the world, and it has been commented on by tho young beaux until they have really grown eloquent as well as edifying iq attempting to defend their natural heir-ship to rights and ceremonies which they conceive should grow out of our obedience to our liege lords; but Aunt Bridget you are noted for a cool head and warm heart, aided by your ex- perience, as everybody says you must have an abundant share, we will rely up- on yvur opinion of the realities of Acdded life. \ Well, Madge, as to your \ Uncle Pe- ter,\ (with all due reverence) he is a man of decision certainly, and not only looks out for all the stocks and investments of numlxT one, attends to self and compound interest, never puts money at the low rate of seven per cent, but can count with nice exactness every expenditure in tho home establishment, even to tho Imby's shoe-strings. Your Uncle , well pcrha}M» it is all owing to his sagacious business thrift. But if my opiuion is j worth anything for practice, I give it at less than cost. First: If you consent j to become the letter half of one of the j \ lords of creation \ (he 1>eing the best half, according to the grammatical con- struction of degrees of comparison,) you must make up your mind to have no mind at all; all your opinions must be submerged into tho opinions of your best half. If you would like to g o out to spend an evening with a lady friend, or at some place of innocent amusement, after wad- ing through a day's trials and duties, at tending to all the diminutive wants and wishes of the household circlo, exercising patience and moderation with all the dis- agreeable and jostling contacts, which would worry the life out of anybody but a woman, and your best half with a look which he only knows how to give, re- markn, '•home i* the best place for a vwnanf why you must gratify his vanity. by fall- ing complacently into the same train oi thought. For you to need recreation tc keep the spirits up,—a little change oi programme to diversify and make lift| tolerable ! Preposterous t Never think of t.uch a thing. If you have the audacity, you tmiBt ex pect, should you express an opinion ci- ther in regard to the Union, or Secession, that a \ female politician,\ \ a strong-- minded woman,\ (which aro honorable in themselves,) are epithets used to weaken your moral courage, to frighten your do- cile nature rtnd make you look with con- tempt upon your whole sex. If you aro discreet to lend a helping hand in some benevolent cause, or bestow your sympathy upon some representative of suffering humanity,—you must care- fully reply, I will ask Mr. and sec you again. It will not answer to lot your own native feelings and unbiased judgment act in the matter,—no, indeed. You Iwlong to your liege lord, and if you do not happen to think with him in all matters, political, moral and social, he will not hesitate to call you a disaffectcjrt member, and ten chances to one if yoju do not see a notice printed in this form): '* Whereat my w{fe, Mndge, itr.\ Finally you must dwindle entirely out of tVie world, as well as out of yourself, into that all-absorbing luminary and wise-dispoatf of domestic happiness—your lawful hus- band 1 while this dignitary, growing more self-reliant from frequent conquests, sej» only a \ swamp angel,\ without wings kt that, instead of her who was the image of perfection before marriage, but taki care at the same time, to appropriate himself the right of such property, wi the legislation thereof, which is tho su total of what vas once a model womiun and an ornament to Society. When y\iu can make up your mind to all this, ADVANCE, MAEOH 29, 1861. accept the alliance by adopting such a form of aristocracy, then young woman ' said Aunt Bridget, earnestly,' then you can form an opinion on this subject, but not till then.\ \MADGE?

SENATE.—Mr. Trumbull offered a res- olution, declaring as the opinion of the Senate that tho true way to preserve the Union is to enforce the laws of the Union. That resistance to their enforcement, whether nndemtood by the name of any coercion or any other name, is disunion; and that it is the duty of the President to use all the means in his power to. hold and protect the public property of the Uuited States and enforce its laws,as well in the States of South Carolina, Tennes- see, Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Geor- gia and Texas, as within the other States of the Union. Mr. Trumbull said he of- fered the resolution as expressive of the views he entertained. He desired to have it printed, and would be glad if he could have a vote on it. Mr. Douglas sai«l that all on his side of the Chamber will l>e glad to have a vote on it now. WASUIMOTOM, March 98. No question was taken by the Senate on the jjropositldn by Great Britain-, nt submitting the San Juan dispute (to ar- bitration. Nctunith opposed anv mode of settlement, involving tho possible loss of the Island to the United States. Sumner intended replying, but the sul>- ject goes over until the next session. Contrary to expectation, the President made no nomination to fill the vacancy in Supreme Court. Archibald Lane, engineer-in-chief of the Navy, has received dispatched from Mr. Mai lory, offering him a similar posi- tion under the Confederated States, which was promptly declined. No orders have been issued, or will be at present, to land troops at Fort Pick- ens, and the statements to that effect are untrue. NEW YORK, March SB, Special despatches to the Commercial says that the President has appointed Carl Schurz minister to Spain, in place of Cassius M. Clay, who has willingly con- sented to be transferred to Russia. A special despatch also states that Jas. 8. Harvey, Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia North American and N. Y. Tribune has been nominated minis- ter to Portugal; James S. Pike, of Me., minister to Holland ; Gco. G. Fogg, of N. II., minister to Switzerland. NEW-YORK MABKBTS. NBW-TOBK, March SO.

A correspondant of a Swedish journal furnishes em interesting account of a sub- terranean. Toyage made through one of tiic admirably constructed sewers of Paris. The boat which conveyed the party WAS reached by descending a flight of steps to the depth of about forty-nve feet. The boat, a flal bottomed affair, was lighted by four lamps. The sewer is an archway, fifteen feet high, and of equal breadth, with a ditch or canal about ten feet wide, wherein all the dirt and filth of Paris is carried away. On the sides are sidewalks, which, together, are about four feet wide. TJie whole is built of white sandstone, in kept remarkably neat and clean. No flt ich or bad smell was perceptible. The denser portion of the filth is carried away through large drains beneath the side- walkB. The sidewalks arc excellent and exhibit no signs of dampness, while the walls of the archway are kept whitewashed and are at all times as white as the driven snow. *fhe structure possesses the pro- perties of an immense speaking tube, the workmen being able to converse at the distance of two miles from each other. The echo is very lasting and strong. The fabric is said to be built after a model of the Catacombs of Rome, aided by all the latest improvements. On both sides, at about two hundred yards distance from one another, aro openings through which the workmen can ascend by means of per inancnt iron ladders, in case a sudden rain-storm should cause the water to rise over the side-walks, which is, however, of rare occurrence. Tho contents of the sower flow into the river Seine, and the current is sufficient to carry the boats used along-with consi- derable veloclity. Large reservoirs are constructed at interval**, into which the water can be turned for a short time, in case it should be necessary to have the canal dry for a little while. Tho whole work was completed in two years. Be- sides the main canal, there arc many mi- nor ones constructed under the principal streets, all of which can bo made to com- municate with one another. These ad- mirable under-ground works arc access- ible from the Louvre, the.Tuilerses, and from all the barracks. TAXATION OF DOGS.
