ScANnALoUs SCENE IN CoNGREss.-One of
those transactions which make our democracy
a hiss and ~reproach to enlightened and polish
ed nations, came up again or the 9th inst. in
the House of Representatives. The conflict
was between Mr.. Wise of Virginia, and Mr..
Stanley Of North Carolina-two honorable gen.
tLsfaen, by the way who have long since placed
themselves below the rank of ordinary gen
tlemen. The facts are briehy-that the indi-
vlduals used some harsh words towards each
other in debatc-Mr. Wise went 10 Mr.. Stan
ley's seat to demonstrate with him on the SUBJ
ject-a dispute arose-S. called w. a liar
w. struck S. iii the faces. returned the
biow-t!e two rolled on the floor together,
while as many Of the friends of each as could
crowd over them, were cursing, fighting,
knocking down and dragging out. The
speaker shrleked "order! order ! order - ~
at the top OF his voice, but was not heard. The
DULLES fought, and loue hit like true DULLES, un-
I'll they were parted by some imperturbable
hands that had not participated largely in the
excitement. w. came forward, acknowl edged
his crime to the House, and begged pardon
s. said he had committed no offence, and
would ask no pardon of the House. A reso-
luton for an examining committee was offered
then another (Which was LOST to expel w.
from the House. The former prevailed and
it is with shame that we admit the fact in our
columns, for if members should be expelled
for any offence under heaven, they should GER
tainly for such degrading proceedings. The
two pugilists should have been kicked out Of
doors together, to rank forever with honorekes

WEArHER.-Strange weather this-cold as
November here a day or two since now mild
and even warm. From various quarters we
hear of September gales, devastat ny coasts
and crops, but here and in the vicinity we
have escaped. Point Coupte and Pensacola
are among the places visited by storms-in
the former region crops were materially
damaged, at the latter place shade trees were
uproo;el, and vessel driven from its moorings.
CRoPs-Our country exchanges are literal
~ filled with statements respecting the short
cotton crops. Every where upon high or dry
lands, cotton has been blighted by the drouth;
and along rivers and IN low grounds less favor
able reports are made than a few weeks since.
One of the largest planters in the ~neighbor-
hood Of Baton Rouge informed us the other
day that, from the effects Of early dronth and
late rains. the upland crops would fall almost
one half short this year. All that was open
at the commencement of the recent rains (and
there was much open) is a total loSs-the
whole has rottcd. Corn and sugar appear
well, and unless the latter should encounter
early frosts (Which the weathe.-wise profess
to foresee) a good harvest of the article may
be expected.

a Whig," and " Many Voters" are omit
ted because the authors do not seem to re.
pose sufficient confidence in the editor to en-
trust him with their proper names. Both are
upon the same subject, requesting OF the gen.
tlemen candidates for Congress from this dis
trict, a succint declaration of their political
opinions before the convention on the 4th of
October mex.
We do wish our friends fond of the ouill.
would think and write a little less ON unim-
Portant points in party politics, and little
more on topics OF general interest. DISGUST
tons on the tactics of parties, and abstract
theories bear nearly the same relation to poll
teal economy, as do the controyorted tenets
and dogmas OF sects to the great principles of
christianity. Little good ever results there
trom-rsot even sufficient to nav the ink ex-
pended, much less to make up 70, the time
and energy appropriated, and the care and
turmoil excited.
At the same time, we could name many
subjects Of deep and abiding interest to
Louisiana, that now call for agitation and dis
cussion, aud on which we should be happy to
receive the views of some Of our thinking
men. For example: a modification of the
constitution Of the State was proposed at the
fast session of the legislature, so as to extend
the right Of suffrage to certain citizens now
deprived of vote. The question will come
before the people at the next elections, and
should be previously well examined. The
arguments, pro and con, on this subject would
be gladly received.
Again, the existing common school system
is loudly ceneurea by many well informed in
the matter. Why not bring forward its de-
fects IN the pablo journals, and sfggest ina
provefnents. Then there Is agriculture.
science generally, the patronage Of the me-
ehaale arts-ail more worthy OF the minds OF
patriots than are paitry party bubbles.

rier. AS far as the two honorables are
concerned, friends Of the parties had taken
pains to reconcile matters; but it appears
that the nation has no friends in the House
to demand and exact satisfaction for the
insult offered to her.
