C. 1W -ft? ! j The city is iilliii; up very rapidly j j 1 with all sorts and conditions of men, j su"4i as every session of Congress j brings with it. There are perhaps! fa hundred or more members, and i every tram adds to the miuiber, so that .12 o'clock on Mondav ''will doubtless lind a full House at both j ends of the capitol. Nearly all the j Democrats vill be here in time fori the party caucus on Saturdav night, of which S. S.Cox, it is now thought, will be made chairman. .The House ' offices are the princi pal bones of contention, especially that of Doorkeeper. The contest seems to have narrowed down now to Hurt and Dounelson. the latter having been the Doorkeeper of the last House. Doth claim a majority of votes and both are certain of election, ,vhich is hardly possible ffie reelection of all the otlier old officers seems to le conceded: and no doubt is entertained of the re turn of Mr. Carlisie to the Speaker's chair. He has "been so clear in his reat office."" as to win golden opin ions from even his bitterest political opponents. i Many of the leaders of the party j have been here o'iF and on for sever- j al weeks considering questions that j will require action at the approach-i ing session, of which theTariff is the; most pressing anil most difiicult of I adjustment. The dill'ering opinions are not limited by party lines: Dem ocrats ami Hepub!icansare on both sides. The surplus in the Treasury must be reduced, is the cry in ail parties, but what staple shall be left to fight its battle without specific protection is not agreed upon. Ohio don't want free wool and Louisiana don't want free sugar, and so of all States having a special interest. Whatever is done must be by com promise. Party affiliation can't control it. One of the ablest free trade speeches ever made in Con gress was by Daniel Webster, while Mr. Calhoun was counted on the other side. The interests of New England became centered in manu facturing while those of the South were in agriculture, and so, these great men changed places. The Chief Postofflce Inspector in his annual report put down the whole number of arrests for viola- this District these was one post office clerk, one letter carrier and one other employe arrested. The report speaks of the robbery of mail trains in Arizona and Texas and of the ef forts made to bringthe perpetrators to justice. Twenty-two men have been arrested and the prospect is that all will be. Three have been tried and two have been sent to the penitentiary for life. A case presenting some peculiar features occurred here during the Gfrant administration. A young man was employed in the P. O. Dept. in some capacity which gave him the handling of the office mail. Money letters were missed, he was suspect ed,) Av'atched and finally arrested, accused of the theft and confessed it, tit the same time taking letters, freshly stolen, from his pocket and delivering them to the detective. As a relative of his said: 4kIIe told the truth for the first time in his life, and then he ought to have told a He.V You could suppose that, with a case so clearly established, there would be nothing but routine work for the Court, and that the thief was certain of conviction and punish ment;" but not so. His family, some of thenfgood people, went to work to prevent the trial for the sake of the family. Every one who had the re njotest influence in the case was "seen" The President, the P. M. General, the District Attorney and the grand jury. One of the -latter' was T approached in mv presence. iCfrant wrote a letter to the District Attorney in his behalf, which was shown to the grand jury, and came very near preventing the linding of a bill against him. A juror told me that the effect of the letter upon the negroes on thejury was wonderful. They at once declared that no bill could be lound against the wishes of the President, and the horrors of perjury alone prevented it being ignored. The indictment was pre sented in Court, but was quashed before trial, and so, the scoundrel, a bad boy and worse -man, went un whipt of "justice. The M. C. from Texas who, on his arrival here, a week ago, had his hair cut off, and blew out the gas and went to bed, and escaped suffoca tion by a hair's breadth,has furnish ed his share of amusement to the loungers in the hotel corridors. He was more modest than the newly pledged M. C. usually is. Such gen erally leaye.their their lights burn ing at night that they may see how a Congressman looks when he sleeps. The cold weather that has been threatening our ears and noses for several days past has made the tramp draw upon his wits for crea ture comforts. One yesterday pick ed a pair of boots f rom the front of a shoe store, and adjourned to a neighboring alley and put them on, , discarding his old shoes.

There, was a large attendance at the Opera House last night to greet Marie Prescott and her exceptionally fine company on their first appear ance before a Wilmington audience. The performance was a most chaste, elegant ami enjoyable entertain ment and all present testified their appreciation in most unmistakable terms. The play, "Pygmalion and Galatea," was novel in plot, inter esting as a study, and was presented without any hitch or delay to mar its beauty. The performance closed with two acts from Richard III, and the entire entertainment was such as to develop very superior acting and great versatility of talent in Miss Prescott. The company played the Shakesperean comedy of ""As You Like It," at the matinee to-day to a fair house, and they will close their engagement to-night by pre senting 'The Merchant of Venice," Review.
