•Nat in),ol Repaid irwn, it seems, took
e4i4ptious_to our article speaking of
Mr. Gauw as champion of free hohies
for , free men, and to make a case argu
ed the qiiestion that Mr. Gnow was
not the - originator of the 'Homestead
~•
law. We will admit that, but claim.,
what is Still better, that he was instru
mental in getting it in such shape as to
be available to -the people. The
Washington National Unioii replies'
to the Washington_ Rfpablicah in
the right style. This •should settle
the question as to whO'ilias endeared
himself most to en'. working men by
enabling them to secure free homes
fr(i.ni the broad aci l es of the west.
Sri. Gauw not only talked it as Some

A Washington dispatch to the

There seems to be no present pur
pose among the &publican Senators
to he'l another caucus forlhe con
sideration of subjects of misunder
standing between the President - and
the leaders of the .Republican party
in 'Congress. While the recent con
ference between the President and
the Edmunds Committee was not in
all respects as satisfactory in its re
suit as it was hoped it might .be; and
the opposition of some Senators to
certain opp osition
of the Preiddent's
policy is as pronounced as ever, the
votes of iI.T A last two weeks -have
proved a str nger disPositfon in the
party than some feared existed :to
avoid unnecesssry divisrons and to ,
\
check in their iti ption all tenden
cies towards part disintegtstioni
This desire is so triong that there
is no _ longer any se "ons danger of
the organization of in nti-Adminis
\
Craton faction in the Republican
party in Congress, if any s eh danger
ever existed. Some things which
the President does will Clidimbtedly
s
be severely criticised. Some _U. his
n
appointmenti may be . rejected. ome
.Of of his recommendations maybe
disregarded, and there may be devel
opel wide differences of opinion on \
important questions among the Re
publicans, both in the Senate and
Rouse of Refiresentatives. But when
any distinctive party measures arise,,
the Republicans will certainly be
foio to-pricSent a solid front in op.

Davis' .speech was a clear, legal
statement of the right of South- Vero
line to, - • representation, though he
would not hays olueeted to take
Louisiana first. . He had dissented
Odin the -'whole evitein .of depriving
States of representation by their best
native classes. For a person of his
acquaintance with public life, Davis
was unduly nervous, but it was seen
before the day was over that he had
broken• the ice and " would 'make a
good legislator.- His arguments were '
not only genial and persuasive, bat
his eye was fine, his - mettle good t and
he eliminated falsehood and partisan
ship from truth very influentially,
• Edmunds, is the most acute, ready
and cad ittan in the s Sehate. He
conducts legislation like an old , prac
titioner trying O cause. His Manner
is quiet, his voice generally , low, lint
sweet, and, sometimesdropped to a
musical teurniur. When he . raises
his voice it is piercing, and he looks
_at his Object- He can also raise a
laugh; and, make a point on an oppo
nent Taithain appearing to lose a par
ticle tof, good feeling. Edmands
quite' baid,almost down to - the ears
and nape of the neck. ' -
The people during ,Howe's speech
were all looking at Patterson and
Conover. Patterson hung around
'the stern face of Don Cameron a
good deal. Patterson was the pro
tege of old Cameron at Harrisburg,
and his p'resen ' t Conduct is very dis
pleasing to Hon: Donald Cameron
wears a large standing collar; in
which his ehOps ate peeled, and sits
Xestlessly moving his big hands to
and fro upon. his breast: He has a
fiery red wukache, defined against a
face of a puffy red color. The thin, .
straight, sbarpended nose looks like
an arrow head Ambled down his
broad cheeps, This nose in 'profile
becomes atiquiline. With fumbling
fingers he lifts, a chew of fine-cut to
his : mouth, and tucks it away under
th - mustache aforesaid. His fore
11:cad... is square, and. growing wrink
led, and, and the .signs of tithe and
conflict are already manifest, He
wears a black frock coat and black --
suit, and two strands of a lady's gold
chain drop to-his vest.,
John Patterson is carefully dress
ed and affects to feel Well; He mani=
Pests it by throwing his head back,
.tossing his frosted lilac: curls and
speaking with a pale laugh to s good
many people. He draws his , breath',
blows- up his chops, looks around at
the galleries, looks down, and when
his features seek to res t a man of
misery is felt to be there: It he paid
for-a hurtling seat and this ptildieity,
how dearly., he paid. Patterson's
hair is an almost ferhinine mass of
reddish ringlets:, which; oiled and
combed - out shrink back again -kinki
ly. His profile shows a flat broad
ftirelierd, with strongly-cut, long eye- .
-brows, the eyes well buried under
neath,, so as to be invisible in some
lights, even when wide open. ilis
nose - is long, fleshy and coarse, and
his face has a pink tint, degenerating
to whiteness ' -and with no
_deviation ,
from its nakedness except 'a 'thin,
flowing red moustache. When Pat
terson rose' to speak he wandered a
little in his phrases, and used the
Pennsylvania style of saying, "No
man livin'," &c.; but he swung his
long, broadcloth covered arms very
well, turned to all parts of the audi ,
ence, walked up and down, and was
heard everywhere. Yet as. some said,
he made no; more impression than a
painted screen. Patterson wore a pair
of eye-glasses, and at times consulted
his notes. Me made reference to
Senator Lamar, who denied the soft,
impeachment. - .
A picture in the Senate was a boy
with dark red hair, about seven years
old, playing at Pattersod's knees.
It was his little son. During All this
debate Johri Pattersoti's'‘eldesi son
was leaning on the chair of 2d. C.
Butler, the claimant, who sat in an
Igrm chair in the rear •of the Demo
cratic sidle. Butler is a man of good
features, with a striking countenance
End grayish hair—a military-headed
man. He has long been Patterson's
lawyer. •
It may ba said, on the whole, that
Patterson* was . a failure,• but the
people pitied' him,'without,respect to
party.- •
ConoVer followed. Conover has
lean, spidery legs, and a medium-siz
ed body, l a slouchy and amiable man
ner, and nervous movements; a stand
ing collar,. deep hemmed; is very
bald, with, darkish red hair, like a
black curtain, dependent from - the
posterior; small, twinkling, blinking
eyes, weak and bashful. "The face
never rises to pugnacity, and seldom
settles to seriousness. The _naked
cranium is flat as a clam.abeil. Ile
