Congressional proceedings are reported by
telegraph for Friday, from which We learn
that the Senate was occupied mainly with .
spirited discussion Of the new tariff BILL
The post-oihce appropriation bill Was also
discussed at some length, after which the
private calendar was taken up, and some
twenty Ave private bills rushed through.
10 the House, the consideration Of the res
olution for the expulsion Of Gilbert on the
corruption charges was resumed. Mr.. Gill
bert made speech iu which he went into the
merits Of the charges at some length. His
speech produced considerable sensation and
seemed to satisfy the members of the House,
that. however he may have been tampered
with, he did not actually receive any bride
Tor his vote or influence.
We infer from the very blind report BY
telegraph, that the resolution Of expulsion
vas laid on the table.
The House then took up the resolutions in
relation to Mr.. Masteson, who was charged
with lingering or wanting to handle $780,
600 for the purchase Of the votes Of men,
bsrs in favor Of the Des Moinss River Grant.
1t would seem that the House adjourned
without taking direct vote on the resolu-
tions, although motion to lay them on the
table wAs voted down.

JaAteiAl Dtssrict Convention.
The declination Of Judge Lowe renders il
advisable to hold Convention in this Judi
cial District to select candidate to succeed
him.
As the time for the election 10 rapidly ap-
preaching, it 10 important that the Convsn-
tion for tina, purpose should be held ~ soon
Is practicable. We therefore suggest, for
the purpose of bringing the matter to u TO-
Gus, that the District Convention be held at
Burlington, on Tuesday, the 18th Of March.
The WRoNe TowS.-A good joke Is told
on Horace Greeley, during his recent leo
turing tour. He arrived at Geneva, Wis,
on the train, one evening, but no committee
waited upon him, and, on inquiry, he learned
that there Was no lecture association in the
place. Horace looked establishment, but be-
thought himself to refer to his documents.
when he found his appointment was for Ge-
neva, Ills.
The matter getting noised abroad lee
ture committee sprung up, and Greeley de-
livered lecture to crowded house in Ge-
neva, Wisconsin, while the Genevese Of ILL.,
nois were wondering at his failure to fill his
appointment.

CoSrxnrrrBLE.-The Times publishes .
letter Of Col. Curtis with comments cal
culated to produce the impression that Col.
Curtis was in favor Of the Republican as
against the Valley Wing for the State Print
ing.
The editor OF the Times was distinctly told
BY US since his reception of that letter, that
Col. Curtis wrote it befors he was aware that
We would be q candidate for State Printer !:
and that those to whom he had written were
90 informed by him.
With this knowledge we deem the course
OF the editor Of the Times in the publication
OF the letter and comments ungentlemanly
and unjustihable, and if he expects to be
treated Is gentleman in our personal or
editorial intercourse he will make the
amends proper at once.
