RHEUMATIsM.

This severe and painful disease has long
baffled the skill Of thousands of our most eel
ebrated physicians. Time and money have
been wasted in futile endeavors to obtain
some embrocation that would perform cure !;
but all have failed except Husr's Lrsxnsr,
and that has been successful in almost every
instance in which II has been employed.
Rheumatism arises from different causes,
but most generally proceeds from colds, expo
sure TO the weather, aud sleeping in damp
rooms. Those who are subject to this COM
plant should avoid remaining IN damp places
too long Reader IL you have the rheuma
tism, no matter how slight, procure bottle
Of that remedy, go celebrated under the name
Of HUsTs LIsNKST, without delay, and apply
il thoroughly to the parts affected, and pain
will vanish.

CONGRES SIONAL.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.


SESATE-A letter from Rufus Choate, ten
r dering his resignation as Regent of the Smith,
sonian Institute, was laid before the senate
His reasons are the same as those is his letter
to the house.
The letter called forth remarks from Messrs
Mason, Rusk and others, who expressed re.
greet at Mr.. Choate's course. Mr.. Douglas, de-
Tended Mr.. Choate, and gave his entire con
currence with the views expressed by him in
his letter and the board of Regents. Mr.
Badger thought the resignation should be &C
cepted.
There was nothing else for the senate to act
upon. Mr.. Seward thought Mr.. Choate's let
ter was derogatory to the senate. Mr.. Weller
gave notice that he should introduce resou
ton regarding the management of the Smith
sonian Institute, and Mr. Choates letter was
laid on the table.
The senate requested the judiciary commit.
tee to inquire.
The consideration of the judiciary reform
bill was postponed to the first Monday in De
cember next.
The bounty land bill was then taken up
Mr.. Broadhead said that his friends had over.
loaded the bill, and that tomorrow he should
introduce substitute that would reduce it to
its original limits.
Mr.. Gwin, introduced joint resolution for
establishing an express mail weekly between
st. Louis and San Francisco.
Referred to the committee on post Offices
and post roads.
The bill for the relief of the children and
heirs of Baron De Kalb was taken up and
passed.
Senate adjourned.
HoUsE.-House in the committee of the
whole on the Pacific Railroad bill. Many
speeches were made upon the bill, and it was
apparent that unity of action had not been
agreed upon by the friends of the bill.
Some want three roads and others one grand
trunk with two branches.
Mr.. Benton's proposition to commit the
subject to committee of thirteen, was re-
jected. The struggle will be renewed to-
morrow.
HoUsE-House went into committee of the
whole on the Pacific R. R. bill.
The motion of Mr.. Wheeler, made yester-
day, to strike out all after the enacting clause
was discussed
Mr.. Mcdonald made motion to leave out
the enacting clause of original bill, which was
agreed to.
Mr.. Benton moved to refer to committee
of Is, the plan for railroad to the Pacific
and its construction by private means.
A motion of Mr.. Letcher to table the bill
was lost
Mr.. Stanton obtained the floor, but gave
way to motion of adjournment.

ENTERTAINMENTS Festival of the
ladies of the Methodist Episcopal church
came off Thursday evening, at the City
Hall. A numerous company were in at
tendance, and everything was gotten up in
a manner that reflected much credit upon
those engaged in it. The tables fairly
groaned under the weight of luxuries that
had been prepared to satisfy the gastrinom-
ic propensities of the crowd. We learn
that handsome sum was realized.

CRITICISM GONE CRAzY-A New Orleans
paper, noticing the performance of the opera
Of Norma in that city, says:
Never before had the oldest habitre of
the Orleans witnessed and listened to such
superior singing and acting. Illumed by
the lyric muse, Mrs. Battle is magnificent.
All nerve, all palpitation, her slender frame
is the ittest setting for her diamond SOUL
She has grace, which is more than beauty,
and distinction which adorns still more than
grace. Mrs. Laget is the incarnation of
genius. 1t struggles within her, inspiration
quiverS down her snow white arms and trem-
bles on her finger ends; passion wrestles in
her shivering knees, and shudders through
her fainting limbs. Her soul fickers in
every accent, and looms up in every panto-
mime Her drapery follows her gestures
her gestures her passions Every attitude
is model, every pose is classic statue.

This man, convicted of the murder OF
his wife, was hung in pursuance of the SEN
tence of the Court, in Galena, on the 10Th
inst. At 25 minutes to o'clock the drop
fell, and the culprit was launched into eter.
nifty.
The Galena advertiser of the Goth inst,
contains full account of the execution. -
We make the following extract from the
prisoners remarks to the assemblage. From
5000 to 10000 people were present:
He said he had but few moments to live,
and what he was about to say he wished to
have them remember. He said what had hap
pened and what was about to hapren, all came
through the use of intoxicating liquor. He
had heard of men who had lost their lives or
frozen their limbs through the influence of this
demon. For 40 years he had drank land he
was as years old now.) He had drank from
childhood. He had read an account of O man,
who when drunk, had laid down on railroad
track, and the train had passed over him, kill
ing him instantly There were men in Jail now
who had come there through the influence of
dramshops. He said there were set of gam
blers who keep these Internal places, who would
get man into them, get him drunk, win his
money, pick his pockets, and then turn him
out of doors. He repeated, that he had but a
few moments to live, and wished them all to
remember his advice, which was, to let liquor
alone. 1t was the means of his wife's death,
and if he had let it alone and minded his own
BUSINESS at first, land it was hard to suffer for
it, he would have been living with his wife
now. Let liquor alone Let liquor alone "
