have gone of like wild geese at change of
season. The reason for this departure is ap-
parent in the fact that Nebraska, Cuba, and
the six steamer projectare about to occupy the
attention of the House almost exclusively for
the next two or three months. No one can
possibly turn an honest penny in connection
with either Of them. Hence the lobby have, for
the most part, migrated for breif season.
Mr.. Soule.-We hear calculations made by
shrewd ones, around US, that Mr.. Soule will
return home, ewing to some misunderstanding
with Spain over the dispatches recently trans
mitted to him. This belief is base wholly on
the idea that he will fllibuster gloriously over

that the utterers of such representations bear
him the slightest possible modicum of affec-

Very Important Naval and Military De-
eisions We understand that, in considering
certain questions not long since referred to
that officer, the Attorney General has advised
the Secretary of the Navy and War that when
the proceedings of Court Martial have been
approved by the President, and its sentence
has been carried into execution, the said pro-
ceedings are not subject to review by subse-
quent President, and can only be set aside for
some cause of absolute nullity. Also, that
Courts of Inquiry are not subject to the legal
limitations Of being required to be held within
two years of the time when the act investi-
gated happened, as is required by the articles
of war in the case of Court Martial.
The Result Of the New Hampshire Elec-

person nominated by the Democrats for either
House, who might have been suspected Of SYM
pathy with Burke-a man in Sunapee-who,
on being charged with that impeachment upon
his Democratic integrity, promptly gave con.
trary pledges in open town meeting. The
Democratic State Central Committee think
their party have certainly elected reliable
majority of eighteen to the Lower House
