New foRk, June II, 1871.
What do you mean at Washington? We
are at once astonished and chagIined here at the
protracted Reorganization and anarchy of the
House What can il mean Thousands are
daily asking, will Congress never begin TO do
any thing for the relief of the country2 Ifthree
weeks are required TO organize the House, how
many will suffice TO discuss and mature the Great
Measures which Congress was called in such
urgent haste TO adopt2 o men men if there
be any patriotism, any moderation, any common
sense in the breasts of the majority, cease this
wretched alteration, and go on with what the
People have called you TO accomplish
think Mr. EwlNo's plan gains favor here the
more it is considered. True, we are disappoint-
ed that the Bank is not to be located in our city,
that IL is not to deal in Foreign Exchanges, &c.
We would have preferred different institution
in these respects Yet / think the opinion is
gaining ground that Mr.. Ewing's project, though
not the best that might be made is probably the
best that can be carried, in view of the sectional
jealousies constitutional scruples, and local EN-
banassments that pervade the country. 1t is
still hoped that Mr. CLAY and other Senators
will be able to suggest some valuable amend
ments, but even as it is | think that Bank would
be popular in our city. At all events, | trust
there IS profound conviction in Congress, as in
the Country, that any well guarded and well
managed National Bank would be better than
none.
Apart from the excitement communicated
from the Federal City, we are intensely dull
here. The Spring business is over; sirawber-
ries is the only staple in regard to which the mar
ket IS at all brisk at present They swarm at all
prices from ten cents basket down TO one. The
newspapers diversity their Congressional re-
ports and Fiscal Agency cogtations with de-
nunciations of mad dogs and the putridity ofthe
streets The genteel oilers are running off 10

ing, or TO the ponds of Long Island for fishing.

For two days past the House have been discussing
Bill for the relief Of the widow Of General Harri-
son. We had hardly anticipated serious opposition to
measure in which all parties seemed two months
since to concur in approving But it has afforded an
opportunity for three members, from Ohio
the second from Alabama and the third from Penn
syvania to exhibit, the rudeness of speech the
second perverseness of sentiment and the third an
apparent brutality of feeling unworthy representatives

debate we have transferred to our columns, and we
