couplet enjoined upon me in younger days
count that day lost whose low descending sun
Views from thy hard no worthy action done
Az i stated yesterday, the affair between
Nfessrs Cutting and Breckenridge was settled
without recourse to arms Mr. Preston, Of KY J,
made statement of this fact, simply, to the
House this morning no details were given, and
as such matters ought only to be accurately
stated, or not at all, forbear to speak Of what
is understood to have been the character Of the
settlement. Messrs Shields, of HI and Monroe,
Of N. XII, acted on behalf Of Mr.. Cutting, and
Mr.. Hawkins, Of KY. and Mr.. Preston, Of KY.
for Mr.. breckenridge. Mr.. Preston said that
both gentlemen apologized to the House for the
acrimonious language they had used, and pro-
missed greater crcumspeotion for the future.
The Senate went through with the Deficiency
bill. and loaded it down with goodly number
| of substantial amendments; in this trim it goes
| back to the House, where it will probably lead
perhaps defeat again, for there seems to be a
fatality hanging over this administration and
everything connected with it.
Among the amendments one led to quite o
sharp discussion in an incidental way. This
was proposition to pay Weightman Claiming
q seat in the last Congress as Senator from New
| Mexico) $$s2454-this was agreed to, but while
under discussion Mason, Of Va, spoke Of the
California and New Mexico Governments as
having sprung from the hot-bed of executive
dictation.' This allegation was confronted by
Clayto of Del, and Gwin and Weller, of Cal,
who affirmed, the first named that nothing in the
records of the departments could be found to
justify this charge, and the latter that Gen
Riley's proclamation was disregarded by the
people, who proceeded to organize Government
| of their own volition.
Mr.. Rush, of Texas, read some instructions
from Marcy and Crawford (when these gentle
| men were at the head of the War DEPARTMENT.
which directed our officers Sc not to thwart, but
| advance the wishes Of the people in any steps
for creating Government
The question at issue resulted in a sort of
drawn battle The pension to privateers, yes
terday stricken out, was restored.
Appropriations for custom houses, marine
hospitals, and further exploration of a route
| for the Pacific Railroad, were added to the bill.
The House, after spending the day in five
| minute speeches, finally passed the bill for the
| construction of six war steamers.
| Both Houses have adjourned over until Mon
| day.
The jury have not yet rendered their verdict
in the case Of Schaumburg, for shooting Fuller,
but it is hardly likely that any agreement will
| be had Schaumburg has addressed an insult
ing letter to P. Il. Fendall, the prosecuting at
torney, and declares that he wants no such plea
as self defense-t that he had right to shoot

OF all the sources of amusement offered to
the New Orleans public during the present sea-
son, none have been so prolific of excitement as
the two last great four mile races over the Me-
tairie. The day, state Of the track, reputation
of the horses, State pride, as well as q seeming
determination of both cts and strangers to
"go in" for all of amusement that could be
grasped, combined to give to these two meetings
an ecldt that will never be forgotten by those
who were in attendance. The admirable man
agement of Mr.. Ten Brock, the proprietor, for
the accommodation of such an immense crowd
caused erything to go off smoothly and to our
knowledge, not an accident Of any kind occur
red. The excitement such unparalleled time
produced was not allayed either on the road or
in town until late hour, and the erosy god'
dispensed his favors so literally that many q
votary, as the small hours advanced, did not dis
dain the very efficient assistance of an awning
or lamp post. The following, from q g Mis-
sissippi Cross Reader" reached our ears as we
homeward hied
There horse they called Lecomte,
And very good horse he,
He agai nst the Lexington
And beat old Kentuckee!
He owned up that whisky had quickened his
muse, but swore sc that them was the senti-
ments Of Old Yallabusha county by
The excitement Of Saturdays race was hardly
allayed, when the crowd, assembled yesterday
on the Metairie, we're startled from their dignity
by the contest of Little Flea and .frroao, at
three mile heats, in which the former came to
the stand q winner of the first heat in the IN
precedented time Of 5:934, beating Blondes time
by Of a second. .arroac had been the favorite
at the start 100 to 80, Speed, never mind how
developed, is in itself excitement, causing the
blood to flow faster, the nerves to thrill with
increased vibrations, and in this instance &c filthy
lucre'' to change hands with astonishing rapid
ity. The ease with which Flea had done his
work turned the odds and 20 to was current
on his winning the money; but the long stride
of -arroU told against him, and although game to
the last, he did not succeed in heading .4ryoac
any time in the two next heats
