FROM WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON Feb. 9th, Is

WASHINGTON REQ. UCu, lOOU.
Both branches Of Congress adjourned
over Friday till Monday Tho new Speak
er may not be prepared to announce his
Standing Committees before Wednesday.
It is impossible to guess with certainty
who will be at the head of them, as the old
Governor is very close mouthed and keeps
his own counsel. But rumor is reporting
that Thaddeus Stevens of Pa. will be at
the head OF tho Judiciary; Washburnc of
Ill. Chairman of that on Commerce Grow
at the head of the Committee on Terrific
ries; Corwin of Ohio of Foreign Affairs !;
Charles F. Adams of Mass, of Manufactu-
res; Colfax of Ind. of the Post Office; John
F. Farnsworth of Ill. on elections; Col.
Curtis of Iowa, Of Military Affairs. John
Sherman will be Chairman of the Ways
and Means Committce-the most important
one in the House; which will also make
him the recognized floor leader on the Re-
publican side. His position, in many re.
spects, will be better and more important
one than that of Speaker.
After the election Of Pennington was
announced by the Clerk, it was laughable
to witness the subsistence Of the rampant
re-eaters. AS the States to which they
belonged were called, they came up to be
sworn without hesitancy. Some of them
looked surly and morose as they kissed the
Bible, but the majority were apparently in
good humor and shook hands with the new
Speaker quite cordially. Having taken a
solemn oath to support the Constitution,
we may feel safe that the Union will last
this year out at least; although Scott of
California declares that the election of a
Black Republican Speaker has crached it
from turret to foundation. He is one of
the most active and malignant Of all the
fre-eaters. So far as her Representatives
can make it, California is as ultra slave
State as South Carolina. -...
The opposition members Of the Virginia
Legislature recently addressed a letter to
Mr.. Bolts asking his views on the various
questions and events that agitatc the pop
ular mind. He responded iii few days
in a letter that has since appeared in
sixteen page pamphlet. The missive is a
scorcher. It has created an immense SEN
sation tn Virginia, tbir:y-dve thousand
copies having been printed and circulated
in that and other southern States. The
letter walks into the fire-eatcrs in way
that makes the fur fly. The designs and
schemes of the southern Democracy are
laid bare with an unsparing hand. After
the delugo of Disunion-swash which has
been inflicted upon the country by south
ern demagogues, this epistle from Bolts is
perfectly refreshing. Al. ~. ,,....,...5
(. The Senate Printing Investigating Com
mittee have struck a thick vein of rascali-
ty. Mr.. Wendell stated, under oath, that
when he was Congressional printer he was
black mailed over $lO0, 900 to subsidize
Democratic newspapers, and to influence
elections He testified that by the person
al directions of President Buchanan he paid
81, 900 TO the editor OF the Pennxyloania,.

IMPROMPTU VERSES.
BY HERMIT.
love the woods, the gray old woods
When the leaves lie brown and scar;
love them, too, in summer time
Oh! love them all the year.
love them for their silent haunts,
For their tall and stately trees;
l love the winds that whistle through
And the signing Of the breeze.
love the sunshine and the shade, - .,..
4 ~
l love the clouds that overhang-
And the gently falling rain.
l love the rivers, rocks, and hills,
And the dashing WATERFALL; ..
And countless things unthought of yet
Oh! love, love them all.
But something more than these love:
'Tis q friendship true and pure;
A synonym for truest love-
For a love that will endure
