THINGS IN WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, April 81, 1866 P. NJ


We have had great day in Congress to-
day, particularly in one wing Of it. The bat
tie TX has again been raised against Mr.
Webster, but the blow has been too feeble 10
do him much injury.
In the Senate to-day the discussion or
the French Spoilaiion Bill was continued by
Mr. Dix of New York, after which they
went into executive session where they con
tinued about an hour.
In the House, Mr.. Ingersoll renewed his
charges against Mr.. Webster.
He described the objects of The secret
fund. and went on TO state that he had been
TO the Department of State and saw items
of expense charged for something done in
the Mcleod case.-That Mr.. Webster had
used $4,000 OF the secret service fund in the
first nine months of his official career, and
So 5000 in the next three months.
He stated that these private papers showed
that 800 had been paid to Mr.. Cri;tenden
for visiting New York; that a Mr.. Powell
had received some 100. and that Mr.. F. o. j.
Smith had received some.
lie stated that another entry shows that
$4,000 were returned Of the money drawn
and that Mr. Webster owed $4,000 to thi.
fund when he left the Department.
He charged. in the second place, that Mr.
Webster had used this money for corrupt
party purposes. He stated that he had seen
a paper in the Department from Mr.. Smith
having blank to be filed up for services
rendered He stated that the accounts had
not been settled ill within about ten days

After having strung bundle of little cir

procse ing to reply whena parcel Of Loco
Focos with their usual courtesy opposed any
reply or explanation.
A motion was made, however, TO permit
MIR. Ashmun to proceed, upon which the
Yeas and Nays were called and Mr.. A. W as
permitted to proceed. He went on with a
whitening rehuke Of Mr.. 1nsersoil under ire
quent and outrageous interruption.
MIR. Ingersoll denied that he had charged
Mr.. Webster with giving money TO Mr.. Spen-
Ger for defending Mcleod.
Mr. Ashmun appealed TO The Union re-
port, which Mr.. Ingersoll denied. He said
the report was wrong. Mr.. A. said he ap
peaIed to the honest sense Of the House
W hether be had not said So
Mr. Iugersoll cried ont No
Mr.. Asbmun said he did not appeal to him;
he appealed TO the honest sense OF the House.
Mr. Ashmuu pronounced the charges
against Mr. Webster false. and enumerated
The charges which had been proven false.
He asked howIMr I. came to get this in
formation, which, the President told this
House he dare not hive. He had either been

der. On he had picked the locks ofthe public
buildings to break the seal OF confidence on
papers which the President had said he dare
moi violan, and which ho honorable man
would have violated.
Mr.. Ashmun said thar the gentleman
from Pa. should be The last TO charge any
thing about defaulters, for Gen. Jackson had
turned him Gut OF office, and he was proven
deiaulier.
After all he could do by charging for 65l
libels m the famous tea cases, jury found
that he, as Ex-District Attorney for the Eas-
tern District Of Pa, owed very nearly $4,000
and il was two years after the jury so found,
before MIR. Ingersoll liquidaisd. II was ten
yeurs after he was turned oui before his ac-
counts were settled yet he brings charges
against Dir. Webster for having some little
bill unsettled when he left the Department.

in this affair exciIes the sympathy Of every
one, being appealed to by several persons.

an explanation justiiying the conduct OF the
ex-District Attorney in this case. l have no
doubt that il brother of Mr.. Webster had
been present he would have more easily ex-
planned for him.
| Mr.. Ashmun then proceeded, and said that
an attempt had been made by Mt. lngersoll
to influence John Tyler to come out against
Mr. Webster.
Mr.. Ingersoll jumped up and waved his fist
in very excited way and said tits false =
it is lie! A lie sirI-takiug his seat in
great wrath.
MIR. Ashmum replied that he came from a
State where they believed more in truth than
in duels, pistols or bowie knives, but they
were not TO be deferred by such language
from vindicating the truth. The idea that
Mr. Ashmun should notice the epithet from
person in whose face it had been flung,
without reply by Mr.. Webster is redicu-
lous.
On motion OF Mr.. Shenck, Committee
was appointed to investigate the manner in
which Mr.. Ingersoll was permitted to violate
4 the Private Seals of the State Department.
And, by an amendment Of MIR. Petit. Com
miuse was appointed to investigate the char
ges Of Mr.. Ingersoll against Mr.. Webster Tor
the sake of impeachIng him.
The House then adjourned.

congress than the reptile ugaiD began to dis

I'VE READ IN WILD ROMANCE.


I'VE READ IN WILD ROMANCE.
I've read in wild romance,
Of eyes so strangely bright,
You scarce could brook their piercing glance,
Yet turn not from It's light.
And I've read of the pale and lofty front
And the clustering locks that hung,
OF the glorious, proudly curving lip
And oh! the magic tongue.
The magic tongue that sent
Charmed music to the ear,
And the ravishe1 listener breathless bent,
Its thrilling tones to hear!
And dreamed not, save In Wild romance
Those graces to behold;
But Eve seen them all dvinely blent
In one of earthly mould.
But closed is the burning eye
Beneath its clay cold lid,
And the magic tones in silence lie,
And the shining locks are hid.
He is sleeping in distant grave;
They have laid him down to rest
Wheie the orange trees their branches wave
UNDECIDED DER his breast.
Where sunshine all the day
Lights up the dark graves gloom,
And the tranquil moons unclouded ray
Sleeps nightly on his tomb.
There blows no chilling, autumn blast,
Nor falls the winters snow;
Bat the soft winds sigh and the flowers bloom
On the spot where he lies low.
And thousand mellow strains
From the fragrant groves arise,
And the fre-bird DER the fowery plains
Like flashing meteor flies.
In the grcenest, fairest land OF earth,
Oerhung by the clearest sky,
Where summer reigns with changeless sway,
Alas! that be should dlel
Sleep on, in thy sunlit grave,
Thou Of the eagle eye,
While the snow falls, and the wild winds rave
Where thy own fair sisters lie.
Meet burial place for the gifted dead,
That land of summer bloom,
Tho sorrowing kindred may not shed
Their sad tears DER thy tomb.
