WASHINGTON, Jan. 81, 6 P. M.-The House was
engaged to-day in the consideration of the bill re-
ported by District Committee, prohibiting the sell
ing hiring of slaves in the District Of Columbia.
This bill was twice read and will probably be
passed. There was the most intense excitement
during the debate on the subject.
In the Senate the Panama bill was discussed by
Mr.. Webster and Others Joint Resolutions adopted
in both Houses Veto Of the President expected.
BY another dispatch received an hour later, we
have the following:
In the Senate there was long debate on the
Panama bill. In Executive session, Mr. Bogardus
was confirmed as Naval Officer in the New York
Custom House.
Mr. Edwards, from the Committee Oh the District
of Columbia, reported bill making it INSIDE
to introduce slaves into the District for sale
hire, punishable by fine of $500 with sundry
other provisions Gen. HARRISON moved to Law it
on the table, which was negatived, II ayes, lie
noes.
The debate was warm and animated, and parti-
cipated in by Messrs. Chapman and Smith of ILL.,,
Hudson, Rhett, Holmes, Burt, Brown of Miss, and
Stephens. Bill ordered to be printed, and remains
first business on Speakers table. After the morn
ing hour the Naval Appropriation bill was amended.
1t moved tn abolish the spirit ration and give
five cents instead, which was proposed to be amend
ed by prohibiting officers any one else having
liquor on board Of national vessels. This amend
ment pending Committee rose, reported progress
and the House adjourned.

AMERICAN THEA~RE--Last night Mr.. Booth
commenced his short engagement at this house, to
the qualification Of numerous audience who had
assembled to greet him on his first appearance.
Pescara is character peculiarly his own, but we
never before saw this eminent ragedian perfectly
at home in the part. There was the fiendish deter
mination with which he carries on his suit to Flo
rinda, torturing her with mockery at the cruel
tortures practised her lover, Hemeya, portrayed
in manner which can only be achieved by him
self Mr.. Jamison made an admirable representa-
tive of the aged Malice, and by his truthful acting
added much to the success of the piece Mr.
Charles as Henneya, and Mrs. Pope as F1orinda,
acted admirably. =. Tonight Mr.. Booth will appear
in his famous character of Sir Giles Ouerreach ;;
and " Nose in New Orleans " will be performed for
the twelfth time. The house is sure to be well
attended.

TEXAs-NortherS, Pecans etc.-fExtracts of a
letter from the Rev. Daniel Baker, the gentleman
who was short time since supposed to have been
killed by the Indians in Texas, but who has since
reached his home at Holly Springs, Miss
NoTther. = On Friday evening | reached the
house of a friend near Victoria, and scarcely was
safely housed when there came up reguar-built
Norther, such as have never known before. The
wind blew with great violence. 1t rained Also and
III thirty minutes suppose the thermometer fell 80
degrees These Northers are, believe, peculiar
to Texas. They usually last from one to three
days. When coming on the cattle in the praries
seem terrified, and hasten into the timbered bot
toms, where they find safe retreat. The North
ers, however, that are violent, are not frequent
and when over, we have the clear blue sky, and
every thing is as pleasant spring
PeCanS.-On the morning after the Norther Just
Just mentioned, the banks of the Guadalupc were
strewed with pecans, and very many Were the per-
sons, male and female, old and Young, who went
out TO gather them. For the novelty of the thing
went myself and in a few hours gathered two
pecks, or more. Some dear little children, whom
had addressed when in Victoria, were eager to fill
my sack. The pecan crop, once in three wears. is
a great affair in Texas. 1t is considered equal to
the cotton crop, for hand can gather from one
TO three bushels day, and the picking season lasts
from six to eight weeks. Ii is estimated that this
year fifty thousand bushels of pecans would be ex-
ported from the Guadalupe alone. So then, if the
heavens do not rain mama in Texas, many of the
trees Of the forest shower down nuts which bring
more than dollar a bushe on the spot. certainly
kind provision, at least, for the poor.
Sugar-I'here are not only many sugar planters
in Texas, but some who are planting on large
scale. One gentleman, for example, living near
Brazoria, will probably make at least eight hundred
hogsheads of sugar during the present year. The
cotton crop this year is good, and is estimated at
10000 bales Certainly Texas is destined to be "a
great Stale.
Brdue Gii.-While on the Colorado, | was told
by mine host" of an incident illustrative of the
herolsm of Texan females, which occurred near
this place not many years ago. A party of one
hundred Indians had killed two men working in a
field and put third to flight. In these circum-
stances, ytung woman, scarcely sixteen wears of
age, undertook to protect her family Putting on
a captains uniform, with a cooked hal. she c0ur-
ageously walked out of her house and beckoned to
the Indians TO come on, at the same time making
Signs TO those within the house (only some women
and children, and one old mani to repress their
ardor, and keep still The Indians supposng that
the brave captains company were within, eager
to charge, thought it best to draw from so danger.
Gus post, and they accordingly fed Certainly
the Texan Congress should have granted her a cap
uin's commission and pay for lie.

A DIALOGUE,


BETWEEN BRANDY AND THE CHOLERA.
BrGndy-Tell me, dread plague why goest thou forth
Spreading dsmay and death
From East to West, from South to North,
With pestilental breath
Choler0-Foul. poisonous drug charge me no more
With crimes OF such excess
My victims number many a score,
But thine are numberless.
Brandy-That is not true for | have sure
Been often instEumentive,
With pepper, to effect cure;
also am preventive.
Choiera-Ah, Brandy, thy untmely birth
Has caused perpetual tears,
While have counsed around the earth
But twice in sixteen years.
The rich, the poor, the young. the old.
Are crushed by thee each day,
While death and evils manifold.
Are streWed IN thy pathway.
All many a widow t. GU hast made,
And many an orphan par-
On many home hast cast shade
Ofdarkness and despair.
So, Brandy. say no more me
OF pestilential breath
A while, and will leave to thee
To do the work of death.
