NEARLY THREE WEEKS.

Have elapsed since Congress convened,
and the House of Representatives is still
unorgan lied, and it is foolishness to hazard
an opinion.when it will be organized by the
election of a Speaker. Day after day the
balloting goes on, each party chnging with
the greatest tenacity to their own candidate.
The last ballot on Wednesday afternoon
stood Banks, lO6; Richardson, rs; Fuller,
"a. No choice.
The Senate has appointed its standing
Committees and made a commencement for
business.

The IMMACULATE CONCEPTION TO BE
CELEBRATED IN New JERsEY.-Bishop Bay
ley of the Roman Catholic Diocese of New
ark, which comprises the State of New Jer-
sey, has appointed iridium, or three days
service, to be held in the month of Decem-
Der, to celebrate the doctrine of the Immac-
ulate Conception, which was promulgated
at Rome last winter The Bishop defines
the doctrine to be that (which holds the
Blessed Virgin Mary, at the first instant of
her Conception, by singular grace and
privilege of the omnipotent God, and in vir-
tue of the merits of Jesus Christ the Sa-
viour of Mankind, was preserved immacu-
late from all stain of original sin, had been
revealed by God" This doctrine he eulo-
gi9aS at length, and recommends it to the
implicit faith of all true Catholics. He says
''that nothing is more remarkable as con
nected with the revival of piety in our days,
than the increased devotion of all goo0
Christians towards the blessed mother Of
God"

& A letter from the Crimea. dated the

ES a letter from the Crlmea, dated the
14th of Nov, says:
The destruction of Sebastopol having
been resolved on, each corps has received
its portion to work upon. The city presents,
consequently, the most animated aspect
1t Is demolition en- reqle, in which the four
armies take part. The houses and public
buildings are attacked at the base and on
all sides are heard the blows of the ham
mer and the crash of the rafters and tim
bors of the houses, which fall down amid
clouds of dust. The soldiers at once pro-
ceeded to the selection of all the materials
capable of being employed adyantageouSly
for their use during the winter. Each man
loads himself with objects the most varied.
Some carry off plank, windows, doors, press
es, fre-irons, kitchen utensils, even to old
chairs and old pots. Indeed, it may be sail
that soon not nail nor piece of wood,
nor tile will remain in Sebastopol. Of
course the houses occupied by the troops of
occupation are respected, but this respect
has to be enforced by detachments of sol
diers stationed in the court -yards-so ardent
is the desire for demolition. On the other
hand, the engineers have resumed their
mining works, in order to blow up the mill
tary and maritime establishment of Sebas-
topol. The cannon balls and shells found
are collected in huge pyramids, and it is as
certained that great number are fit for
use.

The Speakership.

The Pittsburg Gazette says, "at the or
ganization of the first Congress, in 1890,
Hon. F. A. Muhlenberg, of this State, was
elected speaker, and from that period up to
1901, the Speakers chair was occupied by
northern men; Mr.. Muhlenberg served two
terms, Mr.. Dayton, of New Jersey two terms,
Mr.. Trumbull, of Connecticut, one term, and
Mr.. Sedgawick, of Massachusetts,, one term.
Since then a period of fifty-four years, the
North has had but four Speakers-Mr. Warn
um, of Mass, Mr. Taylor, of n. Y, Mr.. Da-
Wis of Indiana, and Mr.. Winthrop of Mass,
the latter two served but one term each.-
Yet the Southern members of this Congress
are now doing their utmost to prevent the
election of a Northern Speaker, and de-
nounee the members from the free States as
sectional"

The Richmond Examiner is bold in its

The Richmond Examiner is bold in its
treason. Itsuggests the following as a "New
Proposition" 1t certainly is "new":
The South is celebrating upon the policy
of retaliating upon the North. 1t would
seem, alas, much wiser resource to begin
her work at home. The eficacious legisla-
ton for the evils which affiict and threaten
her, would be an act making it lawful for
the people to tar and feather every man who
should utter or publish words of eulogy upon
the Union, from the present time until the
final settlement of our difficulties with the
North; not that such laudations arc mala in
Sc, but that public safety demands that for
the nonce, the mouths of traitors, toadies
and jackas5es should be silencod-in spite of
themselves.
We commend this paragraph to the at
tention of those Northern men who still
deem 'tacquiescence" in the aggression of
slavery to be the duty of the North.-AB.

A Fight i'm VVashinRtOn---HOracc Greeley
and a Fire Eater.

A Washington correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Commercial gives a humorous ac-
count of late row in the National Capitol,
from which the following IS an extract, says
the Leader:
"a drunken editor from Richmond, Vir-
ginia, requested Mr.. Hart, a correspondent
of the New York Courier and Enquirer, to
introduce him to Greeley. His request was
complied with, and no sooner had he taken
Horace by the hand, than he began to curse
him furiously and to say, that you called
us boo hoos, sir" and to snatch at Horace,
who looked demure as possible. Hart then
attacked the Virginian and thrashed him.
Some one wished to check Harris proceed
ings, but Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts,
went in and said "you must not interfere,
sir" A general fight was iminent, but did
not prooAsd" ----
