ALVEY Night Session,

WASHINGTON, July q.-The night
session of the House was not this
evening the dull ses ion which gen.
eIally character z s Friday nights. 1t
was enlivened by speech from Mr..
Wallace, of Louisiana, in opposition TO
a pivate pension bill, and the
facetious remarks of mem ers who in
terrupted him from time to time and
INDUCED in considerable badinage,
In the midst of it there YVES a little ult
between Mr.. Wallacs and Mr.. Grain
[Tex.l The latter intimated that
Wallace was elected by accident, and
Wallace retoIted that Grain secured
his election by bulldCzing. Oil was
finally thrown upon the troubled
waters by the withdrawal Of
the bill to which objection had
been made. The COMMITTEES of
the Whole then proceeded for half an
hour without trouble, when another
snag was struck, Mr.. Wallace raising
the point of no quorum, upon a bill
granting pension to Fridolne Glas-
iellar. A call of the committee and
subaeq'antly a call Of the House were
oTasre6.S Afttl "a hour and half
had been consumed in useless roll cal

very reprehensible for making his con-

1t is difficult for the English at any

but from the pulpit it really alarms
them. The NerS says of his last ser
mon in the temple that with, per-
hsps, one notable exception, it is un.
like anything we are accustomed to
hear. In its strength and tenderness
and humor, above sll, its self.couf-
