Especial dispatches to the Cincinnati Gazctte.l
FROM wASHINCTONs. z

NASHtNoTOhs FcU.
Toombs made one Of his character
istic speeches in the Senate to-day, in
which, as usual, he assumed to himself
all the honesty and intelligence of the
body which he honors with hispresence,
and denounced the Republicans as vio-
lators of the Constitution and the asso-
ciates of thieves.
After he had concluded his amiable
discourse, Mr. Mason moved an execu-
tive session, which was agreed to, and
the Mexican treaty is now undergoing a
thorough dissection. [ learn that not
single Republican Senator will vote for
it, notwithstanding the efforts which
have been made to induce Seward, An
thony, Simmons and others to do so on
commercial grounds.
Judge Black is rapidly recovering
from his recent attack.
Some eloquent tributes were paid in
the House to-day to the memory of Mr..
Sphinx, late Representative from the
Fourteenth District of your State.
The struggle for House Printer ter
minated in the election Of Thomas FL.
Ford, of Ohio, Printer of the House.
The Democrats fercely resisted, and
tried to prevent the announcement of
the vote, but to no purpose Ford was
elected on the Sd ballot, and received
several South American votes. The
scene on the third ballot somewhat re-
sembled that on previous occasions this
session, when an election has been hang
ing ON a thread. Itwas ascertained after
the names were read, that Ford lacked
two votes, and Republicans resorted TO
all sorts of expedients to prevent the
announcement until they could bring
over refractory members. while the Dem
ocrats loudly called for the announce
ment of the vote, and finally Washburn
of Illinois, and Reynolds of New York,
came over, and the deed was done.
Florence, of Pennsylvania, still un-
dertook to do little fillibustering, but
was restrained by his party friends, and
the Speaker announced the result. You
know Mr.. Ford so much better than my
self that need say nothing to you of
his merits.

WASHINGTON, Feb. %.


The subject of post Office reform is to
be taken up by the Republicans, as their
own measure. The plan of Mr.. Sherman
is to provide that all postal service be
done by contract. Contracts are to be
made not only for carrying, but for de-
livering the mails. The plan embraces
the abolition of the franking privilege.
The latter measure can only be carried
by the House in connection with the
former.
It is reported here to-day that Col
Lee, who has some six hundred men be-
tween Fort Clarke and Fort Brown in
Texas, has been ordered to crush out
Cortinas and his band of outlaws, even
if obliged to follow them into Mexico.
This action results from an application
of Gen. Houston for the protection of
American citizens upon the Rio Grande,
which region is represented by Senator
H. to have been desolated by fire and
sword 1t is also confidently asserted
that the Governor of chihuahua having
applied to our Government for troops to
protect that Province from the ravages
of organized bands of murderers, our
troops are to intervene there also.
The Mexican treaty was only discussed
by one side yesterday, that is to say by
the Democrats. To-day the debate is
going on, and promises to be protracted.
The President has nominated W. NJ
Price of Missouri as United States Treas
urer, vice Judge Rowles declined. 1t

the place.

.TRUMBULL AND DOUGLAS.

Mr.. Trumbull took him up and put
him in very tight place by recalling
the fact that when the Kansas Nebraska
bill was first reported it did not contain
the clause repeating the Missouri Com
promise. That was proposed by Dixon,
of Kentucky, and when first offered, was
denounced by Douglas and his friends
Douglas that when the Republicans pro-
posed an amendment allowing the peo-
pie of Kansas and Nebraska to elect their
own Governors, he voted against it, and
the result was that the Governors of
those Territories had defeated the popu
lar will by vetoing bills prohibiting sla-
very. This was popular sovereignty
with vengeance.
He further asked Douglas how there
were to be under his doctrine any more
free States, inasmuch as he asserted that
the Constitution carried Slavery into the
Territories, and further said that no
State could undertake to deprive per-
sons of their property. How under the
latter proposition Slavery was to be ex
cluded from any State he could not see.
. DOUGLAS RUNS. se a-.
These questions and "reminiscences did
not suit Douglas, and after induiging in
a few lame attempts at witticism, to the
great delight of his claquers in the gal
lery, and some reckless assertions which
he could hardly expect any one to be-
lieve, he finally turned tail and left the
chamber, while Trumbull was still pour
ing hot shot. into him. Trumbull re-
marked that that was usual habit when
he was arraigned.
The Harper's Ferry Investigating
Committee having no more witnesses to
examine for the present, have adjourned,
subject to the call of the Chairman.

HousE.-Mr. Parrott presented the
resolutions of the Kansas Legislature,
asking admission into the Uuion under the
Wyandotte Constitution. Referred to
the Committee on Territories.
Mr.. Rufin called up his motion made
Yesterday to amend the journal. His
name on the last vote for Printer was
not recorded. How it happened he was
at loss to know. During the years he
had been member of the House he had
never missed vote, except when absent
from the city, or confined to his bed by
sickness. He was quite certain that he
voted for Mr.. Glossbrenner, and mi
nutely stated all the circumstances at
tending the vote.
Mr.. Sherman supposed, from what had
been said, that everybody was satisfied
that Mr.. Rufin voted; therefore his name
ought to appear on the journal, what
ever may be the consequence.
The House ordered the journal to be
so corrected.
The Speaker declared that the election
would be considered as nullity.
The Speaker said the House would
proceed to the election Of a Printer.
Mr.. Washburne, of Maine, asked
whether it would not be better to post
pone the election until tomorrow or
some other day.

he was vergrg on eighty. Shortly after, PrOvi-

this world, he summoned his young wife to his
bedside, and announced to her that he was dy-

Wycherly lifted himself up in the bed, and
gazing with tender emotion on his weeping wife,
he said
MY dearest love, have solemn promise to

should be obeyed Then, Wycherly, with a
CHASTITY smile, said. in solemn voice:

From the Southern Churehman.
FATHERS GROWING OLD, JOHN.
Our fathers growing old John;
His eyes are crossing dim;
Aud years are on his shoulders laid,
A heavy weight for him. --
And you and are young and hale,
And each a stalwart man,
And we must make his load a. light
And easy as We can.
He used TO take the brunt, John,
At cradle and the pillow,
And earned our porridge by the sweat,
That trickled down his brow;
Yet never heard we him complain,
Wha,e'er his toll might be,
Nor wanted e'er a welcome seat,
Upon his solid knee.
And when our boy-strength came, John,
And sturdy grew each limb,
He brought us to the yellow field,
To share the toll with him,
But he went foremost in the sxath,
Tossing aside the grain,
Just like the pillow that heaves the soil,
Or ships that clear the main.
Nov We mus. lead the van, John,
Through weather tonl and fair,
Aud let the old man read and doze,
And tilt his easY chair;
And he'll no; mind it, John, you know,
At eve 10 tell US DER
Those brave old days Of British times,
Our grandsires and the war.
Yes; fathers growing old, john,
His eyes are getting dim;
And mothers treading softly down
The deep descent with him.
But you and l are young and hale,
And each q stalwart man;
And we must make their path as smOoth
And level as we can.
