Correspondence OF the Gazette.
RHONIE, Ten Sept. 6.-Nour cor
respondent was invited last evening to
participate in serenade to Misses
Geter and Pinto Rhoms who left Tor
sherman to attend school this morn
ing. Allow us space, ye gsds! to tell
the pleasures and disasters of the trip.
Mr.. w. w. Morris and Harry j.:
Dunn about 10 o'clock p. m, mounted
a mustang and in an hour afterwards
returned with the new omnibus from
Aurora, and Jolly set of boys, and the
girls say so, too, although none were
present in our quartette, wended our
way to y. r. Nelson's for a violin ana
a PLAYER. From there we went to Col
b. c. Rhome's residence. After few
cheerful and lively strains from the
violins and guitar of the young gents
lust mentioned, several vocal pieces
were sung in concert, aud our hosts,
r. J. RhOme aud Mrs b. c. Rhome,
extended the utmost courtesies IN the
way orgenuine orange wine aud cham
payne, the enjoyment of which sur
passed the music. On return home, IN
Charlie Harrison's new omnibus, we
visited Mr.. j. w. Bearu's family ana
dlscoursed all the music in our souls
not to the old folks, but to the rising
generation therein.
Home again" brought us &c
Rhome. and then the groups dispensed
the last languishing sweet notes to MI
Perkins and lady, when they sepa-
rated. -,
we met with pleasure to-day Mr.. i
Men. Quarles, formerly Of Meridian
Miss. He is on visit to Texas. lie
Is very pleasant and agreeable gen
tleman, and an expert in almost all o
the arts refined. We hope his stay IN
Texas will be both profitable an'
agreeable.

The past week recorded the first
deadlock of the winter in the
House, the cause being the Mexican
and Indian war pension bill. The
fllibustering went on with varying
excitement all night, ard in the morn
ing the hall of the Houae presented
the appearance of q room i'll which
there had been held alright of revelry.
The attendants AID clerks were sleep
ing in the committee rooms or moping
about and no quorum couldbe collect
ed for any CT the committee meetings.
Though the House has got well into
the appropriation bills, the bushes
of Congress is still backward to an ex-
tent which means some buried work
IN warm weather. It is probable
that the session will not adjourn be-
fore July s, and the presence of Con-
gres till that date gives prospect OF a
brilliant post.Le<ten season at the
Capital, (P.) The presence of the
Democratic committee has revived
the talk of presidential possibilities,
until "booms' and counter-hooms
are rife. This POLITICAL amusement,
howc>cr, is very much like that of
the boys in The fable: it may be fun
for them and The byStsnders, but it
is death to the poor frogs.
