WASHINGTON. Feb 8, 1854
The debate upon the Nebraska bill was con-
tinued to-day by Mr.. Wade, of Ohio in the
Senate, and the prospect of any early decision
Of the question, as have before remarked, will
become less probable az the discussion advances;
other special orders will intervene to keep this
subject ia allegiance. Tomorrow was assigned
for the consideration Of the French spoliaton
bill; and Mr.. Hamfin gave notice that heshould
call5tRp, but II may not give rise to debate.
How long will it be before those interested in
this just claim will find that their efforts before
Congress are fruitless-that they are chasing
phantom' To be sure it is o $5,000,000 phan-
tom, and several times has been within the
grasp of its pursuers; but to expect Congress
now a. days to do abstract Justice at the cost OIL
such an amount distracted from the Treasury,
is 10 betray little acquaintance with the char
aeters of those who compose the majority OF
our national legislators.
Mr.. Phelps. Of Vermont, will probably be
ousted from his seat, as | understand there is q
small majority opposed to the right of the claim
ant-the question will be decided when next
brought up.
The Gadsden Treaty, SO called, continues to
worry the President and his counsellors, and
may be entirely withheld from the Senate.
The city is not so crowded as it has been, and
the lovers of parties and festivities complain that
Washington is dull, Among those who do not come
here to save their per diem and mileage, is Sena-
top Gwin, of California. His lady intends
shortly to give o ball ut jackson Hall, her own
residence, where she entertains with much iber
atty, being too small for the number of invited
dancers
George Watterston, ESQ, one of the oldest and
most esteemed citizens here, was buried yester-
day. He has, if / am not mistaken, son in
Louisiana who has proved worthy Of his paren-
tage. CHRoNTCLER.
