FROM WASHINGTON CITY.
SPECIAL coRsBerospsNcE OF NEW YORK HERALD

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6, 1851.
General Foete has received Geographic dispatch
from jackson, Miss, announcing the election OF w l.
Harris secession wing, TO the Senate of the u. States
for three weeks till the new Legislature can meet
to eleat MIR. Adams, strong union democrat, for
the whole unexpircd term OF Jefferson Davis. The
election OF Mr. Harris. by the nnion OF the secession
democrats with the secession wings shows concusive
the abSuIdty OF the cry rase by the friends OF any
particular candidates for the Presidency that the Sou
hern secessonsts better democrats than Union men,
Huuhug!
Il is, after ALL probabo that an election of officers
may be held in the Senate.
Considerable i'll will begins to manifest ITSELF in
Congress, and there is little difficulty in the way
of appointing The standing committees of the House -
Mr. Boyd has not as yet consulted with any of the
prominent Democrats who spoken Of as caa-
ddates for Speaker and voted for in caucus. Judge
Bayly Of Va being sent for to-day, has declined &C
cepling the craftsmanship OF The Committee of Ways
and Means. This is unfortunate and will embarrass
Mr. Boyd. After the committee shall have been an
nounced, there will De some requests to be excused
from serving. The chief object aimed by Mr.. Boyd
seems to bs a cheap administration OF The Govern
ment, and his committee will be organized with 4
view to that end.
Mr. Clay continues i'll and has been splitting blood
several times A great deal of anxiety begins to be
felt for him.
The Compromise resolution will be offered in the
House by Mr.. Freeman, compromise democrat from
Mississippi and seconded and supported by Mr. lager
soil, promising compromise democrat frorn Csnnsc-

PAST THE HOUR.


Sure I've sought the gales so long,
Fen the hedsessknOy me;
Birds laugh at me IN their song
Streams reflect, and show me !
Not flower shat smiles so sweet
Seems my grief to soften;
Zen the meadow hates my feet,
I've been there so often;
Eut i! ever pass this way
Meet her on future day,
MAY hush! YET stay
Don't hear hsr coming
Coming Pho, twas but the trees
Night and storm are coming
Even the very wasps and bees
Mock me with their hummlng
Vow'd she not by all that's just,
A that's true, she'd meet me
And lis thus she wrongs my trust,
And lis thus she'd cheat me
Bnt If ever again I'm cast
In such meshes as the past.
MAY Its her step at last
Now, indeed, she's coming
Oh, nv love nv life's-delight
Treasure OF my being
All my sorrows put to flight,
Thee, my sweet one, seeing
Yet. how couid'st thou keep me here,
Heart, and spirit talling3
How l-but no, well have no tear
lis no time for railing;
For, despite my wayward freaks,
Still my heart In rapture speaks
IT would stay waiting twenty weeks
But to see thee coming

The reception OF kossuth by the city OF New York
yesterday, spectacle of the mostmposlng char
acter. The day was exceedingly clear aud sparkling,
with bracing norweser and splendid sky A1this
of storms and fogs, and clouds and long driz-
zng rains from Cape Cod the coincidence of the
sngnary beautiful weather yesterday, with he arr-
val OF the great Magyar, was extraordinary it
was delightful. II was the sun Of Austerli;z!

cesslon, the thunder OF the and the shouting

thing for the recollection of a life time At o'clock
there not less probably, than two huadred and
ffty thousand people in and near Broadway
The moral effect of this pageant will be felt through
out this republic, throughout the continent and
throughout Chrstendom. Ii is the first grand response
pendent generous aud powerful people If The United
States, to the principles OF repubcanism of which
kossuth is the exponent aud the champion. There
appeared to be general knowledge in The multitude
that the mola effect OF this reception destined to
tell upon the popular mind the Atlantic; and
that Austria, Russia and even France, would feel the
weight of the rebuke against them OF ''lile young
giant OF America" The movement, thus begun, will
doubtless be followed up. and it is possible that the
influence OF American enthusiasm may rebound with
startling effect upon the sumbeing elements Of reyo-
luton in Europe.
Al all events the arrival of Kossuth upon our shores
will mark political epoch. A vast combination of
conflicting elements, and wide range o! events,
pretending the most formidable field Of action be-
tween the people and The despots the world be-
gan, lie at the bottom of this visit of the Illusttous
exile 10 oar country. Time alone can tell the results
