From Washington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. :.
The second rcgu!a, and third irregular
sessiup of the FOricth Congrcss assembled
ut noon to-day. There was full a;,rnd.
sncc in both Houses. and, Notwithstanding
the inclcmency of the weather. tho CORR.
dors aud galleries were well tii!ed with spec
tatprS.
pomoroy in the Senate, and Kelley in
the House, put in rrow'sed amendments to
the Constitution, prohibiting the State from
regulating the question OF suffrage, so MS tn
discriminate against the negro. Th;, prom.
ises to be u leading topic vi discussion, at
least this winter. There is no idea ut pres.
cut, even among Radicals, tha, anything of
the kind will be done Nevertheless, it
may be urged, and finally debated to death
1t is now definitely underst OF, and so
announced in Congress, that the annual
AIcssaye If the President will not Dc sent in
until "Wednesday next. 1t was just com
plc,ed at the Treasury printing Office this
afternoon. There is great scramble among
newspaper men to obtain advance copies,
but indications are that they vii not he sue.
ccssiul.
For the first time in the history of the
government, a negro appeared on the floor
OF the House tO'days claiming seat as rep.
resentative from one of the Louisiana Dis.
tricts, in place of Colonel Mann, deceased.
The claimant is u medun.sizcd mulatto.
named Menard. Hc was sent here by the
aid of white Radicals in Louisiana, who
threw out sufficient number OF votes cast
for his competitors to eject hiu (Alenard) to
Congress-
Ills presence on the floor of the House
attracted considerable attention, especially
among his Radical brethren, a majority Of
whom will probably vote in favor Of refer.
ring his credentials to the Committee on
Elections, and thus quietly lay him on the
shelf. ..
Tho annual term of the Supreme Court
commenced to-day. 1t is generally believed
here that the Court will sustain the opinion
OF the Chief Justice in favor Of quashing
the indictment against Jefferson Davis.
The appointment Of Colonel Florence as
Assessor of-the Second Pennsylvania Dis.
trict, gives general satisfaction here, but
doubts are expressed concerning his con.
tirmation by the Senate.

How ARE You, BoNDs?-Those persons
who voted for Grant because they arc the
holders Of few bonds and thought that
the bonds would rise in value under the
Radical administration, will be grati6ed to
learn that they are worth just three cents
less on the dollar since Grant election han
they were before. What stuff the Radicals
did cram down your throats! Ii Grant
continues the Radical Congressional policy,
your bonds will soon be worth nothing ut
all, and the time for trading 'greenbacks
and wood, cord for cord, will soon arrive.
