 WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 14.-It is probable that both Houses of Congress will adjourn over the Christmas season from Friday next There is practically no business on hand, and if there were. the House is in no condition to proceed with it.
 Very little will be done in the Senate during the current week The Republi- cans may hold A caucus to receive the report of the caucus committes in charge of assignments to vacancies and trans fers of Senators to the various commit tees, but this may be done without eau GUS action. At any rate 1t is proba ble that the committee list will be submit ted to the Senate by Wednesday.
 Other than this and some remarks by Senator Turpie on his joint resolution proposing 8 constitutional amendment providing for the election of Senators by direct vote of the people, and brief speeches by other members, the Senate will not transact any business.
 The House will meet on Wednesd at noon, and, on motion of Mir. Holman, will probably adjourn until either Fri day or Saturday, when an adjournment, with the consent of the Senate; will be taken until after the holidays. No business of any kind will be transacted by the House on either date, as the committees will not have been formed to which bills must be referred for ac- tion.
 Saturdays session of the House was merely formal one. The Speaker an nounced the appointment of the follow ing committees:
 On Accounts-Messrs Rusk, of Mary land; Cooper, of Indiana; Dickerson, of Kentucky; Moses. of South Carolina; Seerley, of Iowa; Pearson, of Ohio; Quacken bush, of New York; Griswold, of Pennsylvania, and Cutting of Califor- mia.
