Correspondence of the Tribune.

Correspondence Of The Tribune.
WAsmNGToN Monday night Feb. II.
The House has walked up gloriousy They are
wide awake ready for anything, and not disposed
10 succumb to even WEAKNESS and exhaustion. 1t
adjourned to night about ten o'clock, after con-
tinued session Of ten hours. The opposition to
the River and Harbor bill have pulled every
string to defeat il; but more | think from obsti-
macy than hopes Of success. But there was sc
much confusion and excitement it was impossible
to understand half the reasons given. The evil
dent warfare was to put it to death by small shot
The vote of killing by amendments, was
pertinaciously adhered to, but every time
voted down by a decided majority. | am
inclined 10 the opinion that the opposition was
90 factious and unscrupulous that some of the
more candid of those opposed to the bill voted
against them. | noticed q prominent Southern
Democrat, one who is understood to be opposed to
all similar measures, and one who undoubtedly
will vote against the bill at the final vote, but to-
day / saw him vote several times with its friends,
and not Opee with the opposition. But many
times he did not vote at all. l believe the OPP
position moved eight times that the committee
rise,' but that movement failed as slgnally as
the amendment syste
Finally, after nine o'clock, probably WEAKNESS
pleaded strong with many OF its friends, and so
many refused t0vote, that II was stated quorum
was not present The roll was called and 1t was
found quorum scas present, but would not vote
and the House adjourned until II o'clock tomor
row--to be the hour the remainder OF the session.
The Indiana Members were very conspicuous
in their opposition; McGAuGHEY and JULIAN,
believe the only membe s from that State unws.
yering in their support. do not know how they
reconcile the matter; for last Friday. FITCH GER
tainly made 8 speech In its favor. But Nc
GAUGHKY accused them Of sailing under false
colors-that they professed friendship for the bill
with the intention of defeating IT, Of course,
do not understand the issue between these gen.
tlemen: but if there has been double dealing to
serve State party, and more especially personal
interests, hope their constituents will under
stand II.
There is & good deal Of excitement here too
about the Boston mob or riot. Gen. FooTE. IN
derstand, il in a perfect foment.
But have been so much amused by the excite
ment in the House, that have listened to moth
ing else. The Honorable Chairman OF the Com
nittee OF Ways aud Means is in fury at the
way bis business is taken out of his hands. But L
would recommend q composing draught for bis
nerves or he may have q t before the fourth oil
