WASHINGTON, March so


The House of Representative is a collection
Of all sorts of people, of all sorts OF characters,
and all sorts of talent. There Is much poor ma
teria there; some that is good; Others Indifferent
There is, among some Of its members, great at
tachment to principle; among Others perfect
recklessness of principle. There is no great par
liamen,ary orator, who. like Burke, or Sheridan,
or Fox. or Pitt. or Brougaam. leads off IN debate,
and carries all before him. And vet there Is not
on earth finer field for such man. Put Clay
back there. and his Legislative -Generalship would
over-master all political opposition. There are
tactics IN debate as well as in the field. man
that understands rules and orders, and the Ope-
rations Of the human mind. and the various roads
to given point, will arrive there in the end in
spite of all the little distractions thrown in his
way. have seen Clay's GeneraIship 50 often
displayed in the Senate. that can well account
for the overpowering influence he had in the
House. The more popular Assembly, during the
last war. Now Mr.. McDutIie is about the best
tactlcian in the House. And yet he Is not the
right sort Of a man for leader. He is at times
too naughty, too furious. too orerbearing. He
needs more Of the suauiter IN mode and less Of
the forfi'er in re. Mr.. Everett Is very good
tactician. He is quite at home in all his motions.
lie always understands himself. But he has not
warmth nor enthusiasm. nor boldness enough to
lead off in doubtful time. His manner is too
monotonous-himself apparently too little inter
ested 10 persuade others that every thing is pend
ing on their doing as he wishes. Mr.. Burgess
is bold and fearless, and daring enough. H. is
too much Of an Ishmaelits to make people obey
