Pictnre Of a Locofoco Congress.

The last Experiment. gives the following
faithful .daugerreolype of the late congress.
which boosted its Locofoco majority in both
Houses:
We give in another column the closing pro-
eeedings of thirty-first congress. A more un-
profitable body to the people, perhaps, was
never assembled at the capitol, The fist ses-
sion was spent in wrangling, for the most part,
about slavery, and after ten months seige
they settled upon compromise, which no
body is really satisfied with, but, at the same
time, all. or nearly all, are willing 10 abide by
it, in the absence of something more satisfac-
tory.
The present session has been short, and we
are happy to say, has accomplished some
thing more. They have passed the cheap
postage bill-the bill establishing the new
post routes; and in addition thereto, the ap-
preparation Bills. But the bill in which we
feIt the most direct interest, in common with
the people of this section of country-the Har-
Dor Appropriation Bill-we are sorry to say.

company, they learned from the natives that
a party of white men had been encamped 800

who are at enmity with the Russians, had
frustrated all attempts.

the spot where they we're said to be,as hostile

Tbc Esouaparte FamiIy.

It is said that the. Bonnparte family are
preparing to prosecute claim of t.relre mil
hons francs against France. The Fmporer Ma
poleon, in the days of his imperial supremacy,
appropriated to his use twelve millions of pro-
prrty, of which he was despoiled by Loius
Xviii. The President eff France has consul
ted eminent counsel, and obtained favorable
opinions.
Besides this claim, Prince Lucien Murat,
a cousin of the French President, claims the
Palace of the Elysee, forest near Paris, and
a large sum of money. This real estate was a
present to his father from the Emperor, and
the money is claimed as an indemnity for es-
tates Naples taken from his father. Eminent
lawyers have also given favorable opinions in
this case.
