The finest floors are said to be seen in
Russia. For those of the highest grade
tropical woods are exclusively employed.
Fir and pine are never used, as in conse-
quence of their sticky character they at
tract and retain dust and dirt, and there
by soon become blackened. Pitch pine,
too, is liable to shrink, even after being
we'll seasoned. The mosaic wood floors
in Russia are Of extraordinary beauty.

The Fitz John Porter Case.
PROSPECTS, FoR. EARLY DISCUSSION IN THT
SENATE.

PROSPECTS, FoR. EARLY DISCUSSION IN THE
SENATE.
Mr.. Randolph, the chairman Of the
Senate Military committee. who has
charge of the Fitz John Porter Bill,
tried to have the bill considered yester.
day, but the Western land bill. known
as the five per cent. bill, as unfinished
business has the precedence, and the
consideration OF the Porter bill will be
deferred until this has been disposed of.
The amendment offered by Mr.. Ran.
dolph to the bill yesterday il AZ follows
"Strike out all the enacting clause and
insert. That the President Is hereby au-
thorizcd to nominate, and by and with the
advice Of the Senate, 10 appoint Fitz John
Porter a colonel of infantry in the Army
Of the United States, his commission to
bear date, January, 1863, with the pay and
emoluments of that rank from that date
until he shall be retired according 10 law
or as hereinafter provided for.
"Sec. 2 That at any time after the
granting of such commission 1t shall be
lawful for the President 10 place said POr-
ter on the retired list Of the army on the
pay of retired colonel of infantry"
This Is the same in effect as the sec.
tions Of the bill, but the phraseology is
more correct and definite, and il was
for this purpose that the amendment
was offered. It is not expected that
the consideration Of the bill in the Sen.
ate will be attended with much discus
sion, although the case has been before
the public many years. The papers in
the case are so voluminous that very
few Senators are acquainted with the
essential facts, and it will be the aim of
Senator Randolph to set forth the facts
in as brief and concise a form as posi-.
BILE. The legal phase of the case which
Is the only one worthy of consideration,
will be fully brought out. The other
Democratic members of the committee
do not expect TO speak on the bill. Mr..
Logan, who is a member of the commit.
tee, will make an elaborate speech. and
will proably drag in political questions
which have no bearing in a case where
long delayed justice is demanded for =
wronged and badly used man. Mr..
Burnside takes the position that Porter
was unjustly convicted, and will oppose
the bill on the ground that Porter's
remedy Is in a reference OF the whole
case TO new court martial. II is expec.
ted that several on the Republican side
Of the Senate will take part in the dis.
cussion for the purpose OF making party
capital by evoking a partisan debate on
the old war issues. This view is found.
eel more on the we'll known character
OF Republican tactics and not any dec.
laration on the part of the Republicans
by implication or otherwise. The friends
OF Gen. Porter hope that the consider.
alton OF the question will be confined
entirely 70 the merits of the case, and
40 outside issues be brought in 10 it
prejudice.

POLITICS AT WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March !, 1850.
The recent meeting of the Democrat.
ic National Committee was more mum
erously attended than that of any pre-.
vious year within my recollection. In
addition to the moneyed kings from st.
Louis and Chicago who came here to
urge the holding of the convention in
their cities in expectation of material
advantages to accrue thereirom, the
hotels were crowded with politicians
of note who had come to feel the
pulse of the country. 4 II of the thirty.
eight States were represented through
out the whole proceedings of the com.
mittee, and there seemed an earnest
purpose on the part of nearly, if not
quite all Of the members, to do that
which would be of greatest advantage
to the party. The selection of Cincin-
natl for the place of holding the Con.
yention met with general satisfaction.
Indeed, of the few who voted for St.
Louis and Chicago. there were some
who really preferred Cincinnati for gen.
eral political reasons, but were induced
to vote for Chicago from local causes.
There was a thorough discussion of
candidates and variety of opinions
expressed. 1t was quite noticeable
that but little was said of taking a
western man for a candidate. The
members of committee were unusually
reticent, but it was noticeable that they
were generally firm in the conviction
that success was in sight with a good
candidate. There was very evident
Hancock set to the current OF opinion,
and IL was very noticeable that there
were no outspoken enemies to his nom.
ination. Virginia, which is now in the
position of close State owing TO inter.
nal discension on the State debt ques.
ton, is represented ~ be unanimous so
far as the Democratic leaders can speak
of III in favor Of the handsome Gener.
ais candidacy, and seems determined
| to have her voice heard at the National
Convention through her prominent
men. The bitter feud between the
debt-paying Democrats and Resdjusters
is still pending. and the proposition to
submit the question of further cur.
tailment of Virginia debt TO the vote OF
the people this fall, will undoubtedly
be carried through the Virginia Legis-
lature by the Republicans and Readjus.
ters. On this question the same com.
bination defeated the Democrats in the
struggle for the last Legislature. IL is
this condition of things which induces
the Virginia Democrats TO take more
interest in the coming election than
in any since the overthrow of her carpet
bag government of the State, and they
look to Hancock's nomination to give
the necessary vim and confidence to the
canvass to carry them through. They
express an abiding faith that he will be
elected and that the public sentiment
will sustain him in his inauguration, if
as has been again proposed. attempts
are made to have an erroneous result dc.

tanned by force Of arms. /. n. h.
