Meeting of the Thirty-ninth Congress,
THINGS AT WASHINGTON.

Not having had time or space last week for
is now attended to, though the day is rather
late. To those depending on their weekly 10
cal paper for synopsis of these proceedings,
a little tardiness will not, perhaps, be fatal 10
appetite. .
The second session of the thirty-ninth
Congress commenced at Washington
Monday, at noon, large proportion of
the members of both Houses being pres
ent. The presidents message was prompt
ly presented aud read, the motion of Thad
Stevens to postpote the reading in the
House to the next day being voted down.
After the reading of the message the well
come to Congress had to be attended to
and the House proceeded to the east bal
eony to see the procession, and to listen
to the speech of welcome by Judge Car
ter and the reply by Speaker Colfax,
which was in his best vein. In the eve
ming there was banquet generally attend
ell by the radical republicans, and more
speeches of welcome were made aud an
swered. The House also found time on
the first day Of the session to pass bill
repeating the section of the act of July
1862, authorizing the president to grant
pardon and amnesty, which was put
through on motion of MIR. Eliot of Mass.
The Senate refuses to pass the bill till it
has been the regular round of the com
mittee, Its passage will effect but little,
as the opinion is entertained that the
president has power under the constitu-
tion alone TO pardon offenders before as
well as after conviction. Both branches
resolve to keep the joint reconstruction
committee of last session, and the House
has determined to have standing COM
mittee on freedmen's affairs. The lower
branch has also passed resolution insist,
ing on the adoption of the constitutional
amendmenS before the admission OF south
ern members to congress, and another in
structing the committse on territories e

Home and Music.


Music in every home is thus cloquently
advocated by Rev. NJ Ware:
regard music as combining in happi-
est proportion instruction and pleasure,
as standing at the head of the home eve
ming enjoymeats, What a neverfailiDg
resource have those homes which God
has blessed with this gift How many
pleasant family circles gather nightly
about the piano. How many home is
vocal with the voice of song or psalm
In other homes-in haw many village
he m,s the fathers yiol led the domestic
harmony, and sons with clarionet or flute
or manly voice, and daughters sweetly
and clearly filing in the intervals sound,
made joyful noise There was then
no piano to tha house Of this generation,
the great, the universal boon and comfort
er. One pauses and blesses it, as he hears
it through the open farmhouse window,
or detects it's sweetness stealing, out amid
the jargon of the city-an angels benson
upon wilderness of discord, soothing
the weary brain, lifting the troubled spi
rit, pouring fresh strength into the tired
body, waking to worship, lulling 10 rest

Ir has been proposed that Congress
shall institute an efficient system Of com
petNe examinations for appointments in
the various departments Of the civil ser
vice in W hich education, knowledge Of bu-
siness, scientific attainmeits, or practical
experience are requisite, and that appoint
mcnts made under this system shall be per-
mancnt, that is, shall be held until some
real cause, aside from political differences,
shall warrant and Justify removal This.
would secure competent men in subordi-
nate official positions, curtail the vast
power of the Executive patronage, and
remove many places from the theatre of
party contentious. The duties of the
places would be performed in move sat
ist;tctory manner than they now are, and
and atmosphere of politics would be com
paratively purified, by relating chiefly to
principles rather than u distribution of
the spoils. 80

TmE PREsIDENr AND Mas CoBn--The president
denies that the allegations of Senator Chandler
in reference TO his conduct in the pardon
business are true. Senator Chandler got his in
formation from Judge Carter, before whom the
notorious Mrs Cobb, the female pardon broker,
came las! spring, in prosecution against Detect
tive Baker The evidence then adduced seemed
to establish an intimate connection between Mrs
Cobb and the president, but Mr. johnson asserts
that the moment he ascertained Mrs Cobb's
character, he forbade her to enter the White
House. -''

DEMocRArc puDlAHoN.--Le Blond, demo-
crat from Ohio IN the house debate. declares
that the democratic party was not responsible
for Andrew Johnson's election as vice president,
or for his recent travels He frankly admitted
the president woad ruin any party endorsing all
his conduct. This is the ground generally taken
by prominent democrAts here. They assert,
openly, that they are done with Andy johnson,
and would as soon think of running Fernando
Wood for president, in 1868 as him.

REtIaIoN At THE PARIS ExpoSITIoN.-
The emperor Napoleon has been very
liberal i'll arranging for special religious
department at the great exposition
This will be novel feature, and would
have been still more striking and mstruc-
tive if the other religions of the world
besides the Christian, had also been in
vited to exhibit their sacred book, regrli,
and rites 1t is reported that the Catho-
lies will retire from the affair because of
the admission of Protestant Christians,
but such a display of narrowncss is hard
ly to be expected from Catholics so lib
eral as those OF France. Not only will
there be building for the exhibition OF
the Scriptures in various languages, val
uable relics, costly ecclesiastical uniforms,
and other matters of interest, but Pro
testant chapel will be erected in what is
called the "IIoly Ground" of the exposi-
ton, where there will be daily religious
services, under the direction of able
preachers, in all the languages that shall
be represented. Another room will be
devoted to the gratuitous diitribution of
religious books and tracts, and the print
ing press will attest the skill of invention
and the thoughtful foresight of Christian
benevolence, Several English gentlemen
of great wealth and Christian liberality
have taken especial interest in this work.
American Christians ought to be well
represented,
