recent traveller, speaking of the Chinese town
OF Pekn and the first impressions a stranger re-
ceives entering within the wall, says: % Once
he has passed under the ponderous northern gate,
measured the thickness of the stupendous WALL and
is fairly in Pekin, he will be entirely bewildered;
all before him is confused and dusty mass of
colors, men, mules, cabs, hundreds of camels with
the weary Mongos in their once red gowns, en-
throned and fast asleep on their high summit !;
an immensity of wide, perfectly straight, and end
beggars, of cooks, barbers blind men beating upon
kettle drums, orators delivering speeches; then,
right and left brilliant shops, cafes and hotels
mounted by long poles of all coors, wooden walls
beautifully carved and gilt over; in fact it is a scene
so unique that dream could ever be so eccen-

The Next House of Representatives.

The Cleveland Leader says: The next
House of Representatives will consist of
237 Members-ll9 constituting a major
lily: According TO the Tribune's classif-
cation, the Republicans have elected liz,
the Democrats 80. The Free States
vet 10 choose are Connecticut 4, Rhode
Island ., Minnesota ,, California =. Ore
gon l, Should Connecticut, Rho4e Island
and Minnesota elect Republicans, 8
members, it would give the Republicans
100, a clear majority.
In its table the Tribune sets down
Messrs. Schwaiz and Montgomery of Pa,
and the five Douglas Democrats from
Illinois as likely TO vote with the Buchan-
an men for Speaker. Ga the other hand
il classes Messrs. Clark, Haskin, and
Reynolds Of New York, Adrian and
Riggs of New Jersey, and Hickman. of
Pa, with The Republicans, because they
were chosen in good part by Republi-
can votes, and sympathise with Republic
cans on most points. The Slave States
have most OF their members to choose
yet. They will be mainly Buchanan
Democrats, with a sprinkle of Americans
or Wings. The Southern Opposition to
the Administration will aim to hold the
balance of power in the organization of
the House. The Tribune remarks:
The case, then, lies just thus: If we
elect all the members from Connecticut,
Rhode Island and Minnesota, We can or
ganize the House without hesitation or
difficulty, aud so frame the Committees
as 10 give the friends of Free Soil, Free
Labor, a more wisely Discriminating
Tariff, the Homestead bill, Retrench-
meni and Cheap Postage, an aseendency
in the next Congress which can hardly
be overcome. On the other hand, the
less of Two or three Members in these
three States may involve another long
and doubtful struggle for the Speaker
ship, and throw the Printing, &c,
against us, in the XXXlv Congress
TO that Congress (House) the slave De-
mocracy elected less than eighty Mem
bers; yet one hundred and three votes
were once cast for their candidate for
Speaker, aud one hundred on the faal
ballot, when be was beaten By a plurality
of three.
