The Faction.

The faction is quite tidgctty. MApDoA
seems to be the star. lie was nominated by
Mr.. BowDEN, Of Norfolk, FOR Speaker Of The
House yesterday. BowDES declared him t,
he patriot whose loyalty could net bt
questioned. MADDOX seems to be great
lover of the iron-clad. lie invited tht
House to Il feast on the iron-clad immcdi
utely after prayers. y stranger would hay,
supposed it to have been the most luxurious
entertainment ever enjoyed. MADDOX pre-
sentcd it served in different ways, and tc
be taken in different ways. 1t was now
fried, now stewcd, and now delicious soup
and he wanted the House to "rcsolvc THAI
we now proceed to take the iron-clad soup ,
and the House not being ready, he wanted
10 inject il into them. As he could not sue
coed in any OF his preparations, he then
offered solemn protest against the contu'
macy of the Legislature, covering vast
surface of valuable paper.
All Of MADDoX's motions about the iron
clad were nipped in the bud by Mr.. BuDr,
of Loudoun, who is sharp on the rules. %
that the iron-clad fried, the iron-clad stcWed,
the iron-clad in soup, along with the pro.
test, will be transported on the Clerks
litter TO the table OF the Committee ofCourt>
of Justice, where the whole mass will be
considered with very great dcliberation.

The Faction q Satisfaction

When you are near a discomfort or {;
danger, and perfectly protected and secure,
your happiness is greatly enhanced 10y the
fact. The rain pattering on the roof, the
mosquito singing outside the net, the cross
dog chained to II postal are sources OF
consolation and often ccstacy. So with
the "faction" of bloody and proScriptivc
Radicals OF the Legislature. They are a.
vindictivc rs possible and as relentless as
blood-hounds. They would put disabili-
ties and chains upon every man III Virginia
who would not vote them into the public
offices. But they have not the power-they
vent their rage in vain, and it becomes de-
lightful music to those they would Cypress.
We envy the Liberals the pleasure theyen-
joy, Their session will probably be the
most agreeable ever held in the capitol.
The satisfaction they must derive from the
faction is OF inestimablc value to their hap
pincSs.

Besides the exhibition Of the results OF IN
dustrv, there will be two excellent addresses.
ColonclF L. G.. RUFFIS will deliver the annual
address on the 18th, and Professor MALLET,

The Germans.

| We have all read about the great German
Festival in Batimore-the Northeastern
scngerbund, an annual gathering Of vocalsts
who are banded together for the purpose of
enjoyment and the cultivation of music as an
art. The festival was great success, and
the last notes of the singers were heard in a
farewell song on Saturday last, when the va
rious societies took their departure for their
homes Years ago such immense gatherings
were unknown in this country; but the tide
of German emigration has brought with it
German habits and customs With the in
PRODUCTION of that popular German beverage
called lager beer, CAME social festivities-the
dance and mimic scenes. At first our sober
sided people rather turned up their noses at
the bitter drink, but its mild and refreshing
nature, saying nothing of its cheapness soon
brought it into favor even with Celtic Ameri-
can citizens. The Germans have the true
philosophy Of lifc-they saw the wonderful
reform their native beverage had brought
about, SO they opened gardens, saloons, dance
halls, and theatres, where the favoritc beer
flowed freely good humor and sentiment pre-
vailed. Innocent games were invented for
the children, while the men joined in athletic
notwithstanding, footraces and general
gymnastics The Germans are notorious for
their fondness for music and dancing; the
former is an important branch of education
in their public schools, and you rarely meet
with German who is not musician. There
is scarcely town Of any magnitude in the
United States that does not boast its singing
society or its band of Turner's or Gymnasts
and Schutzens +; they have grown with the
land of their adoption, and now their name is
legion. In general, if let alone, their festivi-
ties are conducted with commcndabe order
and regularity-the women and children en-
Ter with heart and soul into the sports of the
occasion, and the songs of the fatherland are
sang with the true feeling of patriotism
We repeat, the Germans have the true phil
osophy Of life-they know what true enjoy
ment is-they prefer to look on the bright
side of the picture for its beauties and not
amid the shadows which care and anxiety
have made consnicuous
