Row in Congress.

WASHINGTON, April lG. Both Hosses
OF Congress were to-day distinguished by
lisgraceful scenes of personal charac-
ter In the Senate Mr.. Conness MADE
some personal illusions to Mr.. McDou-
gall, who charged, in turn, his colleague
with uttering falsehood. Mr.. Conness
said that his colleague neither repre-
scented the State of California politically
or morally, and that nothing but COM
mon charity had prevented him moving
his expulsion FROM the Senate. Mr..
McDougall then commenced to tell a
story to illustrate the extent to which
Mr. Csnness could be insulted, but it was
of character so revolving to the dignity
of the Senate, and to the lady specta' ors
in the gallery, that the Vice President
called him promptly TO order. Mr.. Con-
ness then declared that his colleague
woult not tell him that he lied outside of
the Senate chamber Whereupon Mr..
Med. vehemently struck his desk and
said that he would tell him the same.
There the matter ended. B. r.I-L lL. r.f
In the House, Mr. Ingersoll, Of Illinois,
became very much excited in the course
OF speech defending the Veteran Re
serve CorHz and stigmatized Mr. FL
bridge, of Wisconsin, as contemplate
Copperhead, and the Democratic side of
the House as followers of JEFF Davis.
Amid great excitement in the Hall, Mr..
Ingersoll was declared out of order, and
required to take his seat Mr.. Rogers,
Of New Jersey, then arose, and though
loudly called to order, denounced the
Radicals on the other side of the House
as the only secessionists and traitors in
Congress. Mr.. Eldridge replied that Mr..
Ingersoll was beneath the contempt of
every one. Mr. Washburne, of Illinois,
was in the Chair at the time, and
promptly called to order every member
who used supplementary language.

The Legislature.

The Nashville Banner thus character
ICES the Legislature:
There never was in any assembly or
in any age of the world measure Of
legislation carried as the Franchise Bill
was carried on Thursday morning by the
Radical revolutionists and rioters Of the
House of Representatives.
They assemble without quorum; they
override the decisions of their presiding
officer; they select out of a number OF
representatives chosen at the same time,
under the same proclamation and by the
same people, four to suit their purposes
they admit these four TO the exclusion of
q the rest; they then declare themselves
organized, and pass law DISTINGUISHING
everybody, and keeping themselves in
office for lie; and all against the known
will of nine-tenths of the Union people OF
the State, to say nothing of the mass OF
the population.
If this be not depriving the people by
sheer force, without law or color Of justi-
fcation, of the republican form of Gov
eminent guaranteed by the Constitution,
we are at loss to describe it for what It
is
There can be no argument against
such violence as this; and Re do not pro-
pose TO insult the intelligence of our
readers by making more than the self
evident propositions arising out of a case
so monstrous and unparalleled
That it is illegal
That it is revolutionary in the very
last degree
That it demands action, the most EN-
phatic from the people in their primary
capacity
And that if this species of usurpation
is submitted to, it will be followed up by
acts of desperation, the like of which
was not known during the height Of the
Reign of Terror in France, depriving
the people Of social and industrial, as
well as political freedom, and building
up in our midst a despotism as bigoted
as that of Nero or Henry VIII.
The rightful majority in the House OF
representatives, headed by Speaker
Heiskell owe it to itself; to civil liberty,
and to the people, to 20 at once in a
body TO Washington and lay the whole
case before the President of the United
States, and the Congress of the United
States, and TO implore them, in the name
Of Justice, to deliver us from the ha nds
ola despotism which represents nothing,
is reckless of consequences and regard
less of law.
The statement which could be made by
such body of men would astound the
most radical members of Congress it
would amaze the world and at the same
time the demonstration would command
respect and attention.

HELEN GRAY.

Because one loves you. Helen Gray.
Is that reason you should pout
And like March wind yeer about,
And frown and say your shrewish say
Don't strain the cord until II snaps.
Don't split the sound heart with your wedge,
Don't cut your fingers with the edge
OF your keen wit; you may. perhaps.
Because you're handsome, Helen Gray.
Is that q reason TO be proud? i
Your eyes are bold your laugh Is loud,
Your ste ps go mipcing on their way;
But SO you miss thet modest charm
Which ia the surest charm of all;
Take heed you may yet trip and fall,
And no man care to stretch his arm.
Stoop from your cold height. Helen Gray
Come down and take lowlier place.
Come downto fill 1t now with grace
Come down you must perforce some day
For years cannot be kept Mt bay, =,
And fading years will make you OLD old
When YOU Yourself are nipped and gray.
