members to attend the opening OF the New
Orleans Exposition, and that during this

the House on the r~eassembling OF Congress
after the holidays. They argue that the
usual amount of work prior to the ad-
iournment for the holidays will have been
accomplished by the 14th inst, because of
the unusually early assemblage of Con-
gress this year. The Mexican Pension
bill, which was debated at length at the

by a motion to discuss measures on the
Speakers table. Townshend, who had

practicable moment. In the Senate, the
bills for the admission OF Dakota and
Washington Territories, will undoubtedly
be pressed by the Senators who have them
in charge.
