A Dis,urbance In the House.

WASHINGTON, Dec. IL There was q
brisk skirnish on the floor of the House
to-day on matters arising out OF the war,
in which the same scene which has been
enacted 50 many times before was re-en-
acted 1t was only little earnestness
of language On the part of members; a
sort of impG.sipeness that crops out ev-
cry few days during 4 session Ii is only
in anger that members tell the truth
about each other and such scenes as
that of to day are regarded as some
thing piquant and nutritious. The same
old Soldiers Homestead Bill was up for
consideration Governor Hawley, of
Connecticut.had made his first speech in
the House against the bill, and had
pounded it so etfectuaily as to leave in
it but little of lite. Townsend, OF Penn
sylvania, had a protest read against the
bill, signed by Gen. Harlranft and 9th
ers; in behalf of the Grand ARMY Of the
Republic. Spoer, Democrat OF Penn
sylvania, denounced the Grand Army of
the Republic as a political organization.
Townsend said it was because the sol
diers were Republicans. while the Dem
ocrats were rebels. This shell made a
fearful explosion. Manson, of Indiana,
a Brigadier General in the war, rushed
to the front, and shaking his fist at
Townsend; denounced the statement as
lie. Several other Democrats, who
had been officers in the war, took part in
the melee, and employed not less strong
language. Speer then said that "the
statement is false ard unworthy of my
colleague" Others shouted, "Yes it is
unworthy Of him" and "nnworthy Of
him." was repeated from every point OF
tho Democratic side, as the members
rushed to the front aud rallied around
Speer aud Manson. On the Republican
side nearly all the members were upon
their feet, and the scene was very ex-
citing one. Sam. Randall, glowering at
Townsend, asked excitedly, Where were
you during the WARP" "At home,' re-
piled Townsend. eyes, you were at
home making money out of the soldiers,
said Randall. "And where, pray, were
your retorted Townsend. Il was a
private answered Randall. "In the
Home Guards" broke in some Repubi-
can, and this sort of thing continued
until the Speaker succeeded with his
mallet in auelling the disturbance.

receipts are heavy hogs for which there
is no, demand on the part of packers
The light hogs, which are almost the
only ones ~anted by Our butchers, are
in supply about equal to the demand,
and it is these which realize our highest
quotations, but their prizes are affected
by those of the heavy ones % q some
what uniavorable extent. ca, MoEday

day we quote at 50 25@6 90 per LOO

light ones, selling at the highest figure.
Receipts this week 14,472 head against
1862 last week, and 1858 head same
time last year.
