Letter from WASHINGTON.

Correspondence Of the Alexandria Gazette.
| WASHINGTON, Aug l4-An unusual quiet
prevails at the Capitol and Pennsylvania Ave
nue. looks almost deserted. But lew persons
are to DO seen at the hotels; only few Office
seekers linger about the Departments and
everything is LIT. For years past SO dull time
has rot been known 10 Washington. The
Capitol is being put 10 order for the approach
ing session Of Congress, but it 10 now thought
doubtful whether the October meeting will take
place, it being considered not difficult matter
| to bridge over the six weeks intervening be.
tween the time specified for the called session
and the regular meeting day 10 December. \
revocation of the call issued would not surprise
any one.
1t is probable that Tue contest for Speaker of
| the next House will be much moro exciting
than anticipated now From present iGjica.
lions Randall has the inside track" The
West will be divided in lis choice, While the
South is by no means uuii, although it is
seriously urged that the time has arrived when
she should assert her supremacy in this branch
of the Government. Mr.. Cox will rot be able
to make. any considerable DETECTION from Ran
dali, while MIR. Sayler, of Ohio, will not likely
be able TO present such strength as to attract
sufficient support to cnsure his election. Should
the South determine to unltc--anG By SO doing
they could most likely elect their Candidate
the choice would almost certainly fall upon Mr..
Goode, of Va, but as stated before, it is By no
means certain that that section will put forward
a man, and if not then Mr.. Randall will 10
questionably receive large proportion Of her
votes; indeed macy have boon already pledged
to him. lie proposes shortly visit to War
renton and Danvil!e, in Virginia, and hcaca
into North Carolina.
Should MIR. Randall be chosen Speaker tue
old officers of the House will all probably be re-
elected, except Mr. Patterson, The Doortccper,
for whose place there will be contest, result
ing most likely 10 the choice Of q hlissouriao Or
one from the Southwest probably Col. Jewell,
of New Orleans. Mr.. Thompson, Sergeant. at
Arms; MIR. Adams, Clerk, and Mr.. Steuart,
Postmaster, as yet have no serious opposition,
though, of course, there will be asrran!s for
each place.
The result of the Virginia convention gives
general satisfaction here among democrats, and
it is thought Col. Holiday will have no opposi.
ton.
The civil service reform, put into execution by
the President has caused considerable disgust
upon the part of many OF the Radical Office
holders, who think that Mr.. Hayes is either
with the democracy or els: paving
The way Tor the appointment Of moderate re.
publicans under the uext democratic admins.

We are glad to state that two of the city 8
largest creditors have already minated that
they will not only willingly. but cheerfuy,
agree to accept the proposal of tine public debt
commission, and that the probability is that
most, if not all, the creditors will do likewise.
They do so not because they are, or can be-
forced to accept any terms but those upon
which they became creditors, but because
they SEQ the straits TO which the city is
reduced, and ore disposed to do what they
can to help her 10 her extremity. There
is 40 reputation 10 the matter. They
have been ask ed to abate their just de-
mands, with the understanding that if they com.
ply with the request the interest due them will
be paid puncsually at maturity, aud being per.
fectly aware of the heavy taxation to which the
property owners Of the city are already subject.
ed, and being unwilling 10 ioorease that ouerous
burden, they have accepted the terms of the
commission, not from necessity but from choice.
