The following is a specimen of what is
thought to be fun, in Congress. When the
resolution in relation to diplomatic agents
wearing court dresses, or uniforms, when
abroad, was under consideration in the House
of Representatives, yesterday,
Mr.. Covode moved all amendment to add
the following provlso: Provided, that diplo-
matte agents shall not be permitted to wear
any court dress except such as shall be pre-
scribed, and the patterns drawn by the chief
tailor of this nation, who is now presiding over
it's destinies Laughter. .
The Speaker ruled promptly that the amend
ment was not in order; and it was returned to
Mr.. Covode . ......- .......
Mr.. NOEL suggested, as an amendment, that
the uniform shall consist of cooked hat, loop
ed up with an American eagle; swallow-ailed
coat, with stars aud stripes on the tail butter
nut pantaloons, close fitting yellow stockings,
with garters-:a Ia Franklin -buckskin vest,
one side black and one side white, &c
Laughter.
Ruled out Of order.
This was, no doubt, considered to be ''ex-
quiste fooling," as Shakespeare says, by the
brilliant wits, who excited their faculties in
emitting their corruscatlonS.

80 GEORGE q SsurH's LECTURE. Til

REV GEORGE G., SanrH's LECTURE The
Rev. Geo. G., Smith, Of Georgia, a gallant OIL
nor in the late Confederate army, awho unfortu-
nately, was shot and crippled for life, during
the war delivered an attractive and interest
mo lecture last night at Liberty Hall, on the
1o,,pg men ofthe south--whatthey have done,
and what they skeuld do The achievements of
the young men Of the South, in the past, in
the different provinces of agriculture, manu-
facture, commerce, literature, politics and arms
we're graphically and feeling y portrayed by the
earnest lecturer, and their future prospects de-
l;neated in cheerful, and, We trust, truthful
colors One idea advanced by Mr.. Smith par
ticularly struck and impressed his attentive
audience, and that was that the people of the
South should not allow their natural sympa--
tbies for their former slaves and their innate
and human kindness fortheir colored friends and
neiphbors to be warped and altered by the SUI
Oercilious style in which supererogatory orders
concerning the manner in which that sympathy
and kindness are to be shown, may be delivered.

HIGH WATER AT NoRFoLK--The recent
heavy rains and heavy gales, on Thursday
night last caused very high tides in the
Elizabeth river at Norfolk, and on Friday
morning the citizens living near the river
found the streets, wharyes and the lower
stories of their dwellings, overlooked. Very
little damage has been done, and that mostly to
ship builders and boatmen, whose lumber and
boats were washed away La many places the
citizens had to bold communication with other
portions of the city by means Of boats, being
entirely cut of. The Norfolk papers say it is
the highest tide since 1S48. .... ...-.
