How TO CuRE 4 CouenlNG seSAron-The
Washington correspondent of one of the n Y.
papers referring to an unfortunate habit into
which some administration senators fall, thus
illustrates the process by which it may some
times be cured.
After Mr. Frederick had handled Biger with
out gloves Saturday, telling him fatty that his
statements then made concerning the meeting
at Judge Douglass house upon the Toombs bill
were wholly different from those made on the
former occasions, an episode occurred worthy of
notice When about closing. he supposed Mr..
Slidull coughed in anIotfensive manner, whereup-
on'he Immediately remarked that some senators
were in the habit of sfgnifying displeasure by
coughing down others. For himself, he regard
ed such conduct insulting, and such as no
gentleman would indulge in. No reply was
made

Col. FoRNEY AND THE ADMINIsTRAT1oN.-Co
John w. Forney, who holdsa position in the
Democratic party the editor of perhaps the
ablcst Democratic journal in the country, after
brief visit to Washington, writes ii letter for
his own columns, in which hc tells sorrowfully,
but openly and with indignation, the result of
his convictions concerning the Administration
Col. Forney begins by remarking that at the in
auguration of Mr.. Buchanan:
The Democrats were united and Joyous and
gaZed hopefully into n tranquil and victorious flu
ture. The Republicans were disnayed, aud new
political combinations were abandoned before
the prospect of q wise and patriotic policy. Mr..
Seward in the Senate, Mr. Stanton, in the
House, Mr.. Greeley, in the Tribune, instead of
preparing new weapons of attack upon the Ad
minisration, were turning their thoughts TO those
substantial questions upon which all men agree
