HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
THURSDAY. APRIL %.

Mr.. Brooks, Of New York, rose to make a
personal explanation, which he said he was
| induced to do by remarks that had been made
| with reference to himself by member of the
Senate, whose age and position rendered it the
only course left him to pursue He said he had
already denied the authorship of the letter that
had appeared in the New York Express, and
with reference to the editorial remarks which
had been republished in the Globe he denied
oil knowledge of them, till subsequent to their
republication.
The course which the Southern Wings pur-
sued in the caucus, he said, showed that they
were true upon the Compromise MEASURE, and
| he therefore withdrew his statement rs TO their
wavering upon that question. =.
Mr.. Stanly said he regretted the appearance
of the article referred 10, and depl0red the ex-
istng state OF things. The only part of the
| speech of the gentleman from New York, on a
former day, which was offensive to Southern
members, having been withdrawn, he had moth
ing TO say upon the subject.
Mr. Houston reported the post Office navy
transmission mails bills which were read the
first time.
IL was then determined that all debate on
the Homestead bill shall terminate ON Thurs
day next, two hours after the House goes into
Committee.
The House went into Committee, and again
took up the Homestead bill.
Mr. Yates, of Illinois then took the floor
amidst much noise and confusion. He express
ed himself in favor of the bill !; the object Of
which, he said, was 10 give comfortable homes
to persons in the Southern and Eastern States,
who are now living in dcstitution and want
but who would find the means 10 20 out 10 the
new States, were this incentive offered
Mr. Smart, Of Maine, after some prelimi-
nary remarks, replied with reference to
statement that had been made 10 the other
wing Of the Capitol, as to the number of slaves
who had escaped during the last year into the
Northern States, which, he contended, the cen
sus returns did not bear out, and which, in re-
laton to numbers and value, were insignificant
In amount. The House adjourned
SATURDAY, APRIL "a
The House went into Committee ON the state
Of the Union, and Mr. Ewing, Of Kentucky,
who had the floor from yesterday, made
speech with view Of putting his constituents
ia possession OF his sentiments.
He said he was inclined TO give his support
10 the bill under consideration, IA one OF the
most harmless developments Of popular feeling
lie then alluded ~ the state OF national poll
tics, and advsrted to the proposition Of inter-
vention in the affairs Of Europe which he deem
ed would he perfectly nugatory, considering
the strength and magnitude Of the powers

THE DANDELI0NS.
BY WILLIAM d. GALLAGHER.

NY heart leaps like a chld's, whom first
see them on their lowly stem,
As from still-wintery fields they burst,
Bright as tho blue skies over them,
Sprinkling with gold the moadowy green,
Where Springs approach is earliest seen.
They como in changeful April days,
These children of the cloud and sun,
When light with shadow softly plays,
As both along the ridges run,
Woong the bee from out his cell
With tales of fowery slopes they tell.
Bright horologe of seasons-they
Proclaim the floral cslends here,
Revealing when in woods away
Spring flowers and singing birds appear,
Through open aisle and may bout
To lure tho feet Of childhood out
love them that so soon they spring
Where slopes the meadow to the brook
love them that to earth they bring
So cheerful and so warm look
And that again they give to me
The play-mates Of my infancy.
Oh days of love, and trust, and truth.
CThe morning sky is strangely brightly
Oh loved companions of my youth.
CHow darkly closes in the night y
Again the fields spread free and far
Beyond thom. still the woodlands are.
I'm with yo now, glad-hearted ones
Where'er beneath the April sky
The flashing rill in music runs,
Or howery lawns in sunlight lie
Where harvest apples ripe we see,
And where the summer berries be.
I'm with We where the cardinal-bird
Pipes in the budding groves of Spring,
And where the thrashers song is heard
Till all the summer forests ring;
Where nuts in autumn fall and where
The wild grape hangs, I'm with ye there.
Oh days of love, and trust, and truth
(The flowers were bright upon the lawn
Oh loved companions of my youth:
(IIow many like the flowers are gomez
Nor flower nor child goes down in vain:
Ye both shall rise and bloom again.

OF paying a visit to our friends in some Of the

met with several acquaintance, however. with

CHAPTER VT

Fine passed on, and Horace Laverne was
restored to health again. Weeks flew and
he visited not the underground hell Of the
respectable hotel, nor tasted strong drink Of
any kind. Hope once more shed its cheer
ful light through the bo2om of his wife, and
the image enshrined in her heart began once
again to- resume its former bright colorings.
Once more the fire blazed cheerily on the
hearth, and bright eyes and happy hearts
were gathered aroundsit But the little Ma
mon still retained in. memory the horrors Of
that day when her father in his madness
wanted her killed and though she spoke
not oft, it chccked the exuberance of her
childish, JOY, and brooded like a cloud over
her, shuttingou the sunlight Of that unal-
loyed happiness which is the sole province
of childhood's innocence.
And on. the brow of Mr.. Layerne was
sometimes seena shade Of sadness, though
he endeayored TO dispelit whenever he came
INTO tbs Prraence Of his wife and to appear

Time rolled on, and Horace Laverne still
