Correspondence ofthe ". Y. Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Thursday, Jan.

ASHINGTON, 4 nuT5udy, Jan. 4.
ms DAY has witnessed the consummation in the
House of what seems to me most iniquitous il
not fraudulent waste OF the Public Money 10 SUBJ
serve personal aud unworthy ends
AT the former Session OF this present Congress
the able Committee of Ways and Means, headed
by Mr.. ViNroN of Ohio, reported that the COM
pensation hitherto allowed to the Messengers APP
pointed by the Electoral Colleges Of the several
States to bear their respective Votes for Presi-
dent and Vice President to Washington, wasl too
high, IN view OF the extraordinary expediting and
cheapening OF travel since that compensation was
settled, and proposed reduction to rs cents per
mile az IL cents each way) This retrench-
ment was adopted by decided vote, thus be-
coming part of the law OF the land under and in
view ofwhich the post Of Messenger was eagerly
sought in every State by number OF anxious
competitors. And, so far from any murmuring
at the inadequacy Of the compensation, at meet
ing OF the Messengers called by public notice in
the newspapers OF the City, at time whea most
otthem were in the City,a memorial was adopted
applauding the reduction, pronouncng the new
Mileage sufficient, and urging Congress to per-
severe in the good work OF Retrenchment and Re-
form.
Thus stood matters when the Congressional
Mileage Expose through The Tribune made it
appearance, stirring up bit OF sensation. 1t
was now apparent that the Mileage OF Congress
"Ouiu haFO w OO UT LIldl OI the Mes
sengers restored, or the People would want to
know why. But the retrenchment of Congressi-
onal Mileage was exceedingly distasetul TO many
and the most expedient alternative was the resto-
ration of that o. the Messengers. Accordingly,a
Joint Resolution was promptly submitted to the
Senate doubling the Mileage of Messengers, and
it went through that exalted body very quickly
and easily.
1t made its appearance in the House to-day land
was driven through with indecent rapidity well
behtting its charcter. No Committee was allow
ed to examine it, no opportunity was afforded to
discuss it, but By whip and spur, Previous Cues
ton and brute force OF numbers it was rushed
through the necessary stages, and sent to the
President for his sanction
Now let us look one moment at the Justice
and reasonableness OF this double payment for
services already rendered for a we'll known and
contend ample compensation: The Messenger
from MAINE, for instance, brings the vote OF his
State 595 miles (from Augusta) by the shortest
Mail Route, and need not be more than eight DAYS
absent from his business, at an expense certainly
not exceeding 500 in all. The reduced comren-
sation under the act OF last Winter was $I4S rs,
paying his expenses and giving him 81 per day
over Is not that enough
Yet Congress precipitately votes to double the
stipulated compensation of all these Messengers,
and OF their successors hereafter. The purpose
oil this vote cannot be mistaken. Iii bold de-
fiance to the demand for Reduction of Congress.

SLAVERY IN CoNGRESs-PACHECo
CASE

WAsHINGroN, SATURDAY, JAM g.
The debate on the claim of one Antonio Pache-
CO OF Florida Tor rather of his heirs, since Pache-
CO himself has died during the tendency of his
claiE) was to-day closed by Mr.. Gddings of
Ohio In speech OF remarkable force, and which.
in spite OF Mr.. G's unpublished delivery, rose at
times to the region OF eloquence. The claim is
based on state OF facts substantially as follows:
Early in the progress OF the Florida War upon
the Semlnoles, Major Dade hired of Paeheco at
$50 per month his slave Lewis to guide through
the country OF the hostile savages the expedition
which Major ID. commanded. Lewis was me-
gro of remarkable abilities, spoke four languages
Huently, and it would seem was secret confed.
crate and spy OF the Indians at the time. When
about halfway to his destination, the expedition
was suddenly attacked by the Indians and al
~ most ehtreiy destroyed, hardly man escaping.
The negro was no more heard OF until near the
close OF the War, when he came in among q hand
OF Seminoes who sure ndered, finding longer re-
slstance impossible. He was now claimed NV
ms OLD master, but, (whether in accordance with
Inc terms OF equalization or otherwise does NOT
aPpear,) Gen. Jesup resisted the claim, and deci.
ded that Lewis must go West with the discom6t.
ed savages,-and so he did. Whereupon Pacbe.
co Grains payment Tor him by the Government.
Mr. Ulddings's opposition was based on the
genelal grounds that the Federal Constitution

that successive Congresses, on the reports n

would be setting up a most mischievous and dan

THE FROST.

We give the following seasonabe lines from Mr. Low
ellis new poem-ihe Vision OF Sir Lannfal:
Down swept the chill wind from the mountain peak.
From he snow five thousand summers old;
On open void and hill top bleak
Hhad gathered all the cold,
And whirled il Ike sleet on the wanderers chet k;
II carried shlver everywhere
From the uneaed boughs and pastures bare;
The little brook heard ii and rulIt a roof
Meath vi ch he could house him, winter proof;
All night by the white stars frosty CLEANS
He groined his arches and matched his beams;
Slender and clear were his crystal spars
As the lashes of light tnat trim the stars;
He scu ptured every summer delight
In his halls and chambers out OF sight;
Sometimes his twnkhng waters slipt
Down through fTost leaved torestcript.
Long sparkling ases of steel slemmed treer,
Bending 10 counterfeit breeze;
Sometimes the roof no ffetwork knew
But sivery MOSES that downward grew;
Sometimes il carved in sharp relief
With quaint arabesques Of ice-fern leaf,
Sometimes it was simply smo6lh and clear
For the gadness of heaven shine through, and here
He had caught the noddng of the bulrush-tops
And hung them thickly with diamond drops,
Which crystaed the beams of moon and sun,
And made star OF every one
No mortal builders most rare device
Could match this wIner-paace of ice;
Twas as if every image that mirrored lay
10 his depths through the summer day.
Each fitting shadow of earth aud sky.
Lest The happy model should be lost,
Had been mimcked in tairy masonry
BY the ella builders Of the Frost
