Meeting of Congress.

The United States Senate was called 10 mr..
der on Monday, at IL o'clock, by the Vice
President. Forty-eight Senators were present
Mr.. Mason, of Virginia, submitted resolution
to dppoint committee of inquiry into the Har.
per's Ferry difficulties. Mr.. Trumbull, of Hi
nols, gave notice that he should move an amend.
ment to MIR. Mason's resolution by extending
the inquiry TO the seizure of the arsenal, at
Franklin, Missouri. Gwin, of California, gave
notice of his intention to call up the Pacific
Railroad bill.
The members Of the House of Representa-.
tives were called to order by the clerk. Two
hundred and thirty-one were present. There
was one ballot for Speaker, without any choice.
Sherman, Rep, of Ohio, received &C votes !;
Bocock, DEM, of Virginia, Sc !; Grow, Rep, of
Pennsylvania, 43; Boteler, Am, of Virginia,
IA. Twenty-one votes were scattered on twelve
other candidates. Mr.. Grow withdrew. An
excited and noisy discussion followed, en- Hell
per's "Impendng Crisis" and those who had
recommended the book were severely criticized.
Mr.. Daniel E. Sickles was in his seat. There
would seem to be but little prospect of speedy
organization. The Republican strength is sta.
ted to be but ITO. The President will await
day or two for the House to organize, before
sending In his annual Message.

The JUDICIARY.-A meeting of the Gen.

Eth of November, when s. G. Laws, Elias
Reed and John Costen, Esqs., were appointed
scommittee to inquire of the prominent citi-
zeas of the State, whether they are, or are not,
mi favor of amending the Constitution of this
State, SO as to abolish life tenures in Office =
There seems to be spirit of apathy on this sub
leet, and we think it will be some time before
Tie public are sufficient aroused to know what
@ey really do think.

LYDIA MARIA CHILD is to write the Life Of
John Brown, on behalf of his family.
"THE IMPENDING CRISIS" over which our
Congress is just now SO much excited, is the
name of a " compendium " ofa book written by
one II. r. Helper, of North Carolina, advoca.
tinff the abolition of slavery in the Southern
States, anu recommended Dor distribution by
most of the Republican members of the House,
among them Sherman, their candidate for
Speaker. The book is considered by the
southerners as incendiary, hence their opposi.
tion TO it.

4" The CHARACTERISTICS of the Age.n

The Rev. J. E. Grammer was greeted by q
large audience, at Wards Hall, on "Wednesday
evening, of last week, to hear HIM lecture on
the above subject, which he rendered unusual
ly attractive, being, perhaps, more logical and
rhetorical than any of his previous efforts, and
was listened 10 by his hearers with intense in
terest. In reviewing the characteristics of
the age" he made many dashing and sarcastic
hits at the folies and peculiarities, frequently
ellclting much applause.
While some persons thought this should be
denomlnated the "golden age" and others the
" IRON age," the speaker thought that better
designation would be the composite age, being
made up, as 1t was, of the pecuIiarities of all
others. He considered it under the head of an
age of novelties, newspapers, superficial read
lng' academies, fashions, in6delty, conventions
radical notions, quack-doctors, &C., &c. He
thought the people were running off after some.
thing they knew not what, and inculcated the
doctrines of the " old Teachers" as the anti.
dote to correct these evil tendencies In CON-
fronting the modern philanthropist, he main
talned that all men are not born free and equal,
the Declaration of independence "to the con-
trary, notwithstanding" The speaker back
ed up" his positions with arguments of clear.
ness and precision, evencing ready powers at
close reasoning, as well as raciness and versa.

A Young Doctor.

A few days since three little children, in this
town, aged, respectively, years, years, and
l8 months, were playing, when the older, a
bay, (the others were girls) concluded to play
doctor, and got hold of a quantity of tartar
emetic, which he gave to his sisters, causing
in short time violent vomiting and sickness.
An antidote was speedily procured and admin
istered, which counteracted the poison, and in
a few hours the little girls were running about
as playful as ever.

the act, taken in hand by the mob. had their
heads shaved, and sent back to their home
looking like shOrn sheep.-Neps Sd inst.
