The wind is rather keen, hut the sky is clear as

tor,able quarters like the eye OF n bride on hcr
wedding morning. The ladies' are out III dFo'es,

In the House of Representatives the abolition
war has commenced in righ, earnest NJ sooner

Mr. Stanley moved to amend by adopting the
rules Of the last session for 10 days until the
report of the Camnitiee, tho rules shall be dis
posed Of, and thus he called the previous ques.
ton.
Mr. Pro1it commenced speech shelving that
tho calling Of tho previous question was UNJUST,

others from giving their Vows on the amendment.
The Speakcr decided that Mr.. Pr"tIitt no!

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

AT the Private Secretary Of the Presi
dent presented the Message TO The House.
| 1t was then read by the Clerk, after which
NJ. Wise moved that it be laid the table
and that ten thousand copies be printed.
Mr.. MIson desired 10 ask a question. He
wished know whether the prospectus of the
Congressional Globe, hich he appended to the
printed copy of the Message intended TO be
included in the motion Of the gentleman from
Virginia.
Mr.. Wise said his motion referred solely to the
manuscript Message sent by the President to the
Speaker Of the House.
Mr. NJ sson then proceeded TO express his as
, tonIshnent that the prospectus of the Congress
sional Globe should have been permitted to be p
pended to the printed copies of tho Message.--
He desired TO know by what authority Blair and
Rives had committed this outrage upon the digni-
ty of the House and its proceedings.
Mr.. Wise explained tha, the copies of the Mes
sage referred to by Mr.. Mason were not those
printed by the official printers TO the House Il
was found that sufficient number Of the ofilc al
copies had no, been forwarded TO tho House
Owing to this the BOYS had procured a number of
copies printed by Mcssrs. Blair s. Rves, who, as
matter Of right, had added their prospectus.--
Theirs not the official copy, nnd he hoped
the genilemln n from Ohio satisfied.
Some rather hard words then passed between
Messrs. Wise and NJ lson in relation to tho posi-
lon of the President.
Elf. Mason inttmated that Mr.. WISE was about
the only gentleman who could give explanation
in relation 10 whether the President had authorised
Blair Il Rives to append their prospectus or not
Mr. Wise Cotnpia inCd OF mo unprovoked and
wanton attack the President. He not
surp. iscd at the old cry Of 'perfdy and treason"
being again raised.
Mr. Mason asked Mr.. Wise how it was that
Messrs. Blair & Rves came into possession of
the mnnusc-ip, Message, as to have il printed
the official printer.
Mr.. Wise cude avored to show that it bad always
been the custom to furnish manuscript copies to
the city papeIs.
Finally the motion Of Mr.. Wise prevailed.

the rules of the Goth Congress shall be adopted at
