AN AFFLICTED MOTHER.-Tne readers OF
THE STAR will remember that Mr.. Chas. z.
Harmon, well known young member of
the Washington bar, died quite suddenly on
OF but two days. His funeral took place from
the Mt. Vernon NJ. f. Church South. of
which he was a devoted member, on the 18th
Alexandra. His sister Rebecca contracted
the same disease at the funeral, and she died
ON the nth instant, and was buried on the
l4th. On the return OF the family Mr.. Aaron
Harmon. younger brother, was taken Ill.
He was considered somewhat better during
the early part of last week, but a sudden
change took place, and he died on Thursday
last. and his funeral took place to-day. Thus
in the short space of four weeks an aged
widowed mother, who has herself been very
III, has been deprived by death of two dutifuI
sons and a devoted daughter. But two chill
dren now remain, one a clerk In an venue
house and the other engaged IN business in
Charlottesville.

During the night session Messrs.
Poland and Butler were discussing pri-
vately upon the floor which measure, the
Arkansas report or the Force bill, ought
to take precedence, when Gen. Butler
said, 81 don't believe you have any de-
sire or intention to get your resolution
upon Arkansas before the House." To
that Judge Poland replied " You have
no right to say that. What evidence
have you ;"
Gen. Butler" None, perhaps, but /
believe it. "
Judge Poland-"I don't believe that
you believe what you say you believe" "
Gen. Butler" do believe it. ~
Judge Poland-"I believe that you
are id liar"
Gen. Butler" Ny courage, sir, has
never been impeached. am quite able
to resent an accusation like that. You
had better be careful.
Judge Poland L don't think j have
great courage, but have quite enough
for this occasion. Not much is needed.
st this point the two men parted, and,
as Judge Poland turned around, MIR.
Lamar, of Mississippi, who stood ut his
elbow, remarked that he thought that
Judge Poland might have needed some
assistance, and intimated that he was
ready TO render il. Mr.. Poland thanked
Mr.. Lamar very cordially. N1sRiny-
