Washington Letter.
Flom our regular corrcspondcut.l

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9th, 1855.
The speaker did not announce the
house committees until Thursday. and
as Friday and Saturday were given to
the work of organizing, committees
have not yet had time TO report any
bills, and as. in consequence, little bust
ness can he transacted on the floor of
the house during the present week.
speeches are suggested. Indeed 1t
might he a good plan to utilize these
idle days for the purpose Of getting of
the set speeches on the tariff and other
questions, which members have pre-
pared mcnths before congress opened,
and which, If not delivered now. are
sure 10 consume great deal Of time
later in the session, when time Is more
valuable than now. 1t has been sug-
gested too that 1t would be good time
te deliver the funeral orations on de-
ceased members.
AS predicted, the assignment of mem
bers to the various committees, gave
great dissatisfaction, which came near
an open vault on the part Of many.
My sypathies in this contest we're with
the speaker, no matter how badly he
may have done, because of the abuse
heaped upon. He had most arduous
task to perform. and to carry out the
programme of the packing process,
nectsso lily had TO break his head sever
a time against the wall Mr.. Carlisle
of all .ther men, has the legitimate
right to consider himself the sore-head.
A New York member who is strong
supporter of the administration, was
quite emphatic in hs denunciation of
the speaker. lie exclaimed: "Why,
he has given everything to the south
and let us out in the cold" In look
ing over the lists find this 10 be the
fact There are llfty-four committees,
and OF this number the southern states
have the chairmanships of thirty two,
which would rather confirm the New
York member in his assertion. Mis-
souri, has the Craftsmanship of FIVE COM
mittees, Massachusetts one. Arkansas
has three chairmanships, the great state
of Iowa only one. Georgia has four
and Minnesota one. Texas has three
and Wisconsin only one. Pennsylva-
mia, tie Keystone state, has only two,
while Kentucky has four. And Sc |
might 20 on through the entire list and
show the partlality of speaker, who
prelhnds to desire to blot out all sec
tiopaliim. do not wonder that north
ern and western men use language in
discussing this condition of affairs that
would indicate forgetfuness of early
Sunday school training.
In the case OF Thoebe against Car
Isle, the speaker has thus far ignored
the issue, but several afIidavits have
been laid before the committee, SC
strong In their nature TINT Mr.. Carlisle
must face the music. lie has there
fore asked further time. which is re
garded humiiiating on his part. The
commitie grants the courtesy, and
will not report until the last of this
week. Dir. Thocbe is vigorously press

Almost all the vim seemed to have departed
from the stock market to-day. The total sales
were the smallest for over two weeks, while
speculation was at its lowest ebb, traders having
the making of quotations in their hands most
of the day. AS consequence final prices are
in most cases lower than last evening. As usual
the market showed more strength during the
forenoon, and notwithstanding the fact that
London was sellers, which has begun to show IN
rates for sterling exchange outside orders to
buy on the decline from commission houses
gave the market strength, though the usual
feverish and unsettled appearance accompanied
the rise Later in the day the market was
raded, presumably for effect on the London
market tomorrow morning, and early advances
were in most every case wiped out, the demand
for stocks having come TO an end. The short
interest shows no signs of decrease however
and there is still "a general bulish feeling which
acts as a backlog to the market. Missouri
Pacific was leader Of the mornings advance
while in the afternoon the pressure was
specially severe upon Union Pacific and New
England, though the latter was fairly strong in
the forenoon. Kansas and Texas and Louisville
and Nashville we're also prominently weak and
both show material losses this evening. The
activity in the last quarter OF an hour was
greater than at any time since the first hour
and the market closed heavy to weak at or
near the lowest prices reached for most Of the
list. The advances recorded are few in mum
Der, and for small fractions only. The follow
