WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The opening
Of the short session of the house was
picturesque in way, but devoid Of in
teresting features. The victorious Re-
publicans and the defeated Democrats
exchanged greetings and gave and took
thrusts on the result of the recent
political battle with much animation.
but thorough good nature. The CALLER
les were crowded and half the desks on
the floor were smothered with flowers.
The leaders on both sides got enthusi-
astic receptions from their respective
partisans, the appearance Of Speaker
Crisp, ex-Speaker Reed, Mr.. Wilson
and Mr.. Burrows being the signal for
long and loud outbursts. There was no
chance in the first days proceedings
for any public reference to the election,
so that the actual proceedings were
dull and uninteresting. Seven new
members were sworn in and after
long wait the presidents message was
read. Although listened to attentively
it was concluded without a single
mark of approval or disapproval. The
death OF, the late Representative
Wright Of Pennsylvania was then an
nounced, whereuron the house, as q
mark OF respect, adjourned.

IN THE SENATE.

Interest Conferred in the Reading of the
Presidents Message.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 4.-The reassem-
bling of the United States senate was
attended with the usual scenes Of well
filed galleries and senatorial greeting
which mark the opening of session of
congress. 1t was devoid of dramatic
incident. However, the reading of the
presidents message consumed two
hours and was the only business of inn
portance transacted beyond the presen.
tation of several resolutions calling for
information concerning the recent is
sue Of bonds, the use of federal troops
at the Chicago strike, and as to Arme-
MAN and Chinese atrocities. These
brought out no debate, however, and
the interest of the day conferred in the
presidents message. 1t was listened to
with attention although it brought out
no demonstration of approval or other
wise from the senators or spectators.
