POETICAL.
DON'T STAY LATE TONIGHT.

The hearth of home is beaming
With rays of rosy light;
And lovely eyes are cleaning,
As falls the shades of night;
And while thy steps are leaving
The circle pure and bright,
a tender voice, half grieving,
Says, "don't stay late tonight"
The world in which thou movest,
Is busy, brave and wide;
The world OF her thou lowest
Is at the ingle side;
She waits for thy warm greeting;
Thy smile is her delight;
Her gentle voice entreatiDg,
Says, "don't stay late tonight"
The world, cold, inhuman,
Will spurn thee, IL thou fall
The love of one poor woman
Outlasts and shames them all
Thy children will cling around thee
Let fate be dark or bright;
Al home no shan will wound thee,
Then, don't stay late tonight"

Virginia Affairs at the Capital.
1Letter to the Alexandria Gazette.


WASHINGTON, Jan. l4.-Through letters, by
telegraph, and otherwise, the readers OF the
Gazette have been kept we'll posted as to the
progress Of affairs here, especially IN regard to
Virginia.
To-day Gen. Gillian was before the Recon-
struction Committee, testityng concerLing at
fairs in Mississippi, until five minutes OF II
O'Clock, when the committee rose and adjourned
until to morrow morning at 10 clock, without
touching the case of Virginia, or those OF her
citizens who are applying for the removal OF
the disabilities to hold positions.
For several days past portion OF the he
nnblican Committee, as it is called, from Rich
mond. have been here awaiting an interview
with the Reconstruction Committee, and their
numbers have been increasing by daily or
nightly arrivals This morning paper was
filed with the Committee on Reconstruction by
these Radical leaders, asking that no apIphca-
ton for reiet from the Fourteenth Amendment
should be considered unless 1t came through
the regular channel. C., sanctioned by the
Richmond Radical Committee, and endorsed
by Dudley, It's chairman.
II is understood that this Richmond junta Is
opposed to the removal of the disabilities from
any of the Virginia judges, except Judge Har-
ris, and from anybody else recommended by
others than themselves. 1t is presumed, how
ever, that the committee of Congress is some,
thing more than the register OF the edlcts OF
these Richmond strangers" (mostlyl, and Will
become satisfied that they are actuated more by
desire for place and power than by principle
and patriotism.
Among those here at present, and who are
most active and proScrlptlve, are george itye,
Treasurer of the State; W. B. Downey, Com
monwealth's Attorney of Loudoun county, who
is violent in his opposition to the removal OF
the disabilities from Judge Thomas and Gen.
Asa Rogers, and who wishes "a fence built so
high that nobody can jump over it until all the
Offices are flled''-it is supposed by others
than Virsinians; Charles Whittlesey, candidate
for Congress from the 18th district-nomuated
at the time the Freedmen's Bureau was In full
operation, but who is opposed to another Con-
yention; - Humphreys, collector OF the
port of Richmond Morrissey, OF Richmond ;
= James, formerly of Shenandoah; Lysan-
der Hill and w. Willoughby, of Alexandria
Josiah Willard, doorkeeper in the Senate
gallery: and = Thatcher, an examiner IN
the Patent Office. j. II. Chandler, former y.
S. District Attorney, r. II. Davis and Il.
Lleween have recently reached here to join
this committee.
Every little matter, irrespective of date or
circumstance, is brought up to influence the
committee adversely to the restoration to their
rights of the best citizens of the State, and to
keep up, if possible, strife and contention.
Lewis Lindsay, colored is also here, dane
ing attendance" on the committee.
The Radicals here assert that the Underwood
Constitution can be carried by 1000 majority
which, it is hardly necessary to add, is not
credited ".
