WASHINGTON, Dec. 8, lsts.
If the first blunder Of your assistants is the
invanabe warrant Of discharge, our commission
expires from the announcement that the Hon.
Dixon H. Lewis was IN town. Our authority was
directly from member Of the House, OF the same
State. He has since informed Us that we misun-
derstood him. Mr.. Lewis has not arrived, but has
been awaiting the action Of the Legislature OF Ala
oama, under the written constitution.
~, are constrained To notice ,he bell-rlngen.-
Iney Yesterday visited the Presidents in the at
@.eLhoon, @ PEI invitation, and were well received,
concert at the Assembly Rooms, and had a good
house. A futis, yclept Mr. Underner, filled up the
intervals between the ringing of the bells. Several
9eTsons appauded him so necessarily that he con-
SNued the compliment into ridicule, and left the
stage at last, in a huff. An individual then came
forward and announced that there would be an
other concert tomorrow evening. But the chapter
OF the evening not being concluded, the audience
demurred.
Enter Mr.. CoRsyN-" Gentlemen, is it your de-
sire that Mr.. Underner should be heard 7"
Cries Of No - Mo-" Yes"" Yes ~" Fair
perfect storm Of yeses drowned all opposition,
when Mr.. Underner re-appeared and played the
" "Sprg Of ShiIlelah'' in tolerable taste. The bell
ringers then concluded, per programme.
Der thereof. as far as we could observe, nor the re-
porter tor the Herald participated in the outbreak
with Mr.. Underner only far as tended to the
toration Of order Other statements in circulation
require thus much in matter which otherwise
would be of the smallest possible insgnifcancy
The Democratic Associations nf this city purpose
giving dinner on the Sh of January, to Messrs
and Payne, Of Alabama, fol- their services here to
the cause during the interregnum. The several
democratic clubs have also issued a manifesto, as
would appear from the Globe expressing their UNI
bragg at certain late movements in regard to the
Inauguration Ball next March, The manifesto de-.
clares that they who fought the fight are alone en-
titled to the triumph.
