 The discipline of tho collar party ia the House was introduced recently from the New York Van Buren school, and is as perfect as the drill of the Russian serls.-- At the call of their leaders, who are sta- toned by arrangement, as l am informed, at different portions of the House, the troops all rally, and form and manoeuvre as the word of command is given-with all the precision of the war worn veteran on parade day. It Is curious spectacle for a dlsin.eFested spectator, to witness the marching and counter-marchingof the drill officers of the House. previous to and pend- ing the taking of any important party ques- ton.
 :" 1t had been remarked to me, that at the extreme end of the first alley on the ri9ht of the Speakers chair, RIf. Cambrelene of New York, Was stationed as Fngleman in that region, and at his side Is that faithful and experienced drill sergeant Eanderpool, of fstta95ae memory, and l found by obser- yatien, such to be the fact. l also noticed that at the end of the alley, at the extreme right of the Speaker, was located Mr. Beardsley, as acting iiieleman, better known now as s'perish credit, perish commerce BeardsIey," and at his right hand, sergeant Turfili, of the New York corps, who, tho to all appearance q dull heavy man, has been promoted to this post of honor, over Mir. Mann of the same State, (who con- tended to this rank, but was sci aside, d. though he had literally grown blind if nof grey Ill the service,) on account of his be- ing always at his post, and as be says him. self "sure fire." At the end of the centre alley, directly in front of tie Speaker, is stationed that plump and roaring fugIeman, Gen. Roclzee, also of the New ' ori1 corps, a hardy old veteran, and used, not as an active officer, but merely IS q conductor or repeater of signals, from betwefn fuglemen Cambreleng and Beardsley. When ques- ton is about to be taken, telfgraphic sig nals pass and re-pass between these distin- guished leaders, through the old General, the white of whose eye is alternately cock ed to the right and left as the word of com mand Is oiYen.
 When matters are all thus arranged, have noticed, es4 several occasions, sergeant Fur rell, (Wlth a written paper in his hand, which he always gets of Polk, and carries to Beardsley and Cambreleng. and which it IS said contains directions how 10 vote,) with measured and wary steps approach aye and No .4daH8 of New York, as he IS called, because he leads off the vote, to whom he delivers their instructions, and then runs up and down all tie alleys at the nght of the centre alley, and gives each mesaber of his party tap on the head, or touch in his side, which like all other sigrsis well un- derstood by we'll trained dogs, without the use of words. This simple tolch has the magical effect of turning all tle eyes of these ealvanised members towstis 1 ye and No Adams, who leads of, and Is he votes, the question by order is decided
 " Happening to be in the Gallery, at the left of the Speakers chair, near Wander pools legion, l could distinctly hear the watch word pass, and the resp,nses of se- verdi of the members within his beat, as the signal was given I heard theKinderhook Roarer, as Yandeypool is also salled, say to Johnson of New York, 's Reaq." $ Unc," grunted out Johnson, and as he passed along 10 the " objectionable sinS Mir.

To Hanegan, of Indiana, he said, stand your hand, Hanegaa." Yes, by Cd" replied the fearless hunter of the West. To Howell of New Yoiz, he gave a significant wink, accompanied with a sign by bis hand, to which Howell responded with good natuped smile, and a inclina- ton of the head, expressing in srong and forcible language, " understand without kick or blow" l was amused aj the elec- tric effect of tap on the head of General Ward of New York, by the sergeant as he was passing out of the first alley At the touch, the General jumped up, md com menced bo,uiag end boruag, ,and finally spun round on his toe, like an ArabianD Dervise, until he had apparently exhausted he effect of the charm, when he sat down,and im- mediately clapt his hand upon the lead of a new member from Virginia, by thename of ss#*F5Es:n, upon whose neck they have re- gently fixed very heavy collar, and put him under the Generals particular charge who Is instrueting him, as l have been in- formed by ono of the kaoaeing ones, in all the cant and t7ash of the party. il IS said that Mr. is quite ticlxled with his col lar, and says 1t don't hurt bit.' 2
