WASHINGTON, January 2, 1865.

w AShlNGIoN, Jdhutly Il, iooC'
The holiday season over, work for the
wear is being mapped out and commenced
in the Executive Departments. Some be-
gin with new rules, as is usual every year,
and others observe the old routine but
yet nothing important has made its ap-
pearance. On Monday Congress meets,
and the trains from the north will doubt
loss, between now and Saturday, bring
back the majority Of those who went home
to spend Christmas and New Years days.
Congress will not be long in considering
tho subject Of national finances after they
meet. That demands iSmediate attention.
The condition OF the industrial and bust
ness interests Of the South will also have
70 be acted ppon without delay. Congress
will not dare to overlook the call for aid to
prevent the, absolute ruin OF certain sec
tons in the South. What will be done in
these respects is as yet matter of conjec-
ture only; but their overlapping impor-
lance, in comparison with the paltry parU-
san schemes which have been engrossing
tho entire attention of the ruling party IN
Congress for two years past, Will certainly
call for the earliest consideration.
Most of the Department officials who
have been absent from Washington since
the adjournment of Congress have re-
turned.
The national banks arc already respond
ing to the recent circular OF the comp
troller of the Currency requesting q state,
ment from each Of them as TO loans anu
discounts and taxes paid during the year
which has Just passed, etc. ABOUT ooNen
answers to that circular were rccel'eo
to-day. . -. 49,
Radicals here are admitting that the
President has, by his recent action IN ap,
pointing and relieving commanders OF
military districts, legally but assurediy got
the upper hand of Congress. The object
of the latter, which was to have the SOUTH
ern States under negro governments
reconstructed sufficiently to aid the Rad
Gals in clcctipg their President, is likely 20
be frl stratcd by the newIy-appolnted
military commanders preventing all lraua
and illegaitcS in the registrations ana
elections. The Radicals arc sat sea" now
ever, no matter who is strongest in power al
present. The',vcry reason why there mas
been such u,lict in their circles Vi iate
regarding political matters is because they
are not posted by their leaders regarding
the best course to pursue after the failure
of their scheme of impeachment and other
ultra measures.
The weather is again very disagrceable,

A MAN SHOT RETURNS TO LlFE.-A
few weeks since an Italian soldier, VINO
had deserted and joined bana s ol pr IL
gands, was captured, and condemned 10
death. He was carried to the accustomed
place, near the cemetery, and five balls ai
entered different parts Of his isl body sGn.a The dn
tecting signs of life, gave him a final shot,
leaving the body for the undertaken to
bury. AS it was late in the afternoon, the
body was placed near the wall by the IN
dertaker, who thought he would perform
the interment by daylight. During the
night the wounded man recovered his
senses, and dragged himself to a hospital,
where bis wounds were properly treated,
and he was alive at last accounts. A dis
pute has arisen between the Minister of
War and the Minister Of Justice regarding
the disposition which should be made Of
the soldier, but his pardon is anticipated.
This story, singular as it may appear to
our readers, is vouched for by a respecta-
bic Italian journal.
