But little has been done i'll the way of bust
ness at Washington since the passage Of the
Nebraska bill. The Senate assembled on
Thursday, the 9Th, for the first time since the
previous Saturday. Senator Fisk. of \. Y.
was appointed to serve on the Committee of
Foreign relations in place Of Mr.. Everett re-
signed, and the Senate adjourned to Monday.
In the House quorum has been occasionally
obtained by the Sergeant at Arms securing
the city for members, but most of the time for
the last ten days has been spent in idleness
for lack of working quorum. On Thursday,
the Sth, in the House, Mr.. Giddings of Ohio,
called attention to an editorial contained in

by the printer of the louse.) inviting the col

the House adjourned without disposing of the
question. On Friday Mr.. Faulkner, Of Va.
announced the sudden death of Hon. John F.
Snodgrass, Representative from the 18th Con-
gressional district of his State. On Saturday,
the Pacific Railroad bill was considered in the
House, and Mr. Cha5tain, Of Ga, made a
