WASHINGTON CORRtSPoNDEN cE.
WASHINGTON, ID. g. !
Nav D 1860 (

J
< The House of Representatives in session, il
, without doubt, the nolsi, st and most diso
! derly public assemblage in America. In
first thing which strikes visitors attention
is that the 175 members are hurrying to an
fro about the room, utterly regardless OF pre-
priety, and without respect for any one.-
The next thing you notice is that the shrll
voice Of Speaker Grow is always in use IL
trying to enforce the rules, and to keep his un
luly team ut work. Then, the pages, messen
gers and doorkeepers running or trottinl
post haste to bring letters, documents, books
and refreshments the idea being thai the
public business is expedited when tn pages
rum Add to these, the camor of a dozen OF
more eloquent members calling "Mister
Speaker! Mister Speaker! trying to get
the floor at once, and you may possibly con-
ceive the national Babel, which | have been
trying to describe.
But these are the miser!es for the ear only.
The reserve consists of very dismal light,
coming through motley coored group Of
sky.lights, which, together with the gaudy
frescoes and gilded ornaments, is literally
distressing to the eyes Hearing and seeing
thus, and breathing the thick, furnace warm
ell air, you soon find your miseries and dis
tresscs ripen into torture.

N@ As the river is now. on the decline,
the water soaked inhabitants of that salubri-
Gus locality known as Muscatine Island begin
again to draw full breaths. The levee is con-
sidered to be perfectly reliable" and those
who pitched their tents in high places may
consider themselves safe. Had sharp north
east wind arisen day or two ago many
farmer would have been compelled to sow his
wheat from a skiff. Indeed there is some
danger yet from strong "Nor' Easter" In
the levee matter our people have acted like
the man whose house needed roof When
the water was high they could not repair the
levee, and when it was low it did not neee
repairing. This last great scare will probably
teach them lesson. %

Rend This.

We commend this arsicle of tho Con-
stitution to those rebels who contend for
the sovereignty of State in all things.
"THIs CONSTITUTION, and the laws Of the
United States which shall be made in pursu-
ance thereof, SHALL BE THE SU
PREMR LAW or THE LAND; and the Judges in
every State shall be bound thereby, ANY
THING IN THE CONSTITUTION AND LAWS OF ANY
STATE TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING y

Many of those blockheads who are

don't know that there is such a clause
in it.

Keeping UP Their Courage.

If we may believe the rebel iounals in
a matter where they have really no in
terest to deceive our gan boats and NOR
tar boats opened fire in the Mississippi
on April 18th. The Inhabitants of New
Orleans had been much alarmed some
days before, and il was to appease this
panic, we suppose, that the New Orleans
Delta of the 10th, three days after the
battle of Pittsburg Lsnding and the sur
render of Island No. 10, rejoiced its read
ers by the announcement that General
Grant had applied to Gen. Beaureeard
for an armistice of three days to bury
the dead, and had been refused. that lle
Gohiederates had captured eighty pieces
of our artillery and thirty thousand mill
itary equipments; that General Sherman
had been killed by the guerilla Morgan's
soldiers and that Island No. 10 had not
been and would not be surrendered.
This is pretty good for one paragraph.
The writer might however, have added
that Commodore Foote had cHt his throat
in despair, that Mrs. Davis had received
company at the White House in WASH
ington, in accordance with her promise
made last year; that General Halleck
had taken the overland route to Califor-
mia, with only two sandwiches and a hat
box; and that Confederate Treasury
notes were in demand at premium in
New York.
