Congratulations and hand-shakings were the ender of the day,- and from the cordial mutter in which Republicans and Democrats frater nized with each other socially, one would hardly suppose that they had ever said an unkind word of each other, and were really and truly "a band of brothers." --Of-counie, everybody knows that when a candidate abuses ate opponent on the stump, in the heat of an electioneering canvass, it, is understood to be in the "Pickwicklan sense," and when the belligerents meeleach other after wecds, they have a jolly laugh over the cam paign shake hands and are "fast friends,"though agreeing to disagree On political questions. I was to-day forciby reminded of this American characteristic by observing the cordial manner in wbieb Senators, of both parties, crowded around Senator Hendricks, of Indiana, who was the Democratic candidate for Dovernor of that State, and whose personal popularity came very near losing the State to the Republicans. He was defeated, however, and, more than that, a Republican will be elected to: succeed him in the Senate after the 4th of March next.. Senator Hendricks is a high-toned, honorable gentleman, and the asperities of the election campaign hav ing passed away, none were more free to express their regret at the separation which would take place between them than some of the Republican colleagues of the honorable Senator. They joked and chatted with him for a considerable time before the Senate was called to order, and, indeed, he seemed to be one of the centres of at traction. Whoever may succeed him, none will be more honored and respected than Hendricks has been during his Senatorial career. The galleries of the Senate were only thinly attended, the great attraction appearing to be the House, nearly every seat in the galleries being occupied. 3114118EF8 OF TIIE HOUSE , OLA t O TO HEET EACH OTEIZA a0.1135-..8k1q 1371"L*E.

The-Penesylvania delegatiOn-tvere prowkrit_in force, and Judge Kelley opened the ball in his usually firm and determined manner , by propo sing a Constitutional amendment, securing man hood suffrage throughout the length and breadth of - this great country, which was received with a subdued murmur of applause from the gal leriee. Mr. 0. J. Dickey, the successor of Thaddeus Stevens, was sworn in, and modestly took his seat, all eyes being turned upon him, as his presence awakened recollections of the "Great Commoner." who now sleeps his last sleep, and people wondered whether Dickey would occupy as conspicuous a place in the nation's history as did his honored predecessor. From Dickey all eyes were turned to Kelley,' and the universal sentiment was expressed that the mantle of Stevens would fall upon him, for he this day set a ball in motion upon the suffrage question which will never cease revolving till the principle of manhood suffrage is firmly estab lished and acquiesced in by every State. The resolutions came in thick and fast, and an immense amount of work was blocked out upon the naturalization and suffrage questions, the ec centric conduct of our Minister to England, Reverdy Johnson, and a multitude of other sub jects, which were referred to the appropriate committees. JOHNSON STANDING UPON MS DIGNITY-CONGRESS MUST WAIT UPON HIS MOVEMENTS. A quorum of both Houses being present, every body expected the President would transmit his message, but he has concluded to stand upon hir , dignity, and insist upon Congress waiting upon his movements. As some of the Renresenta uves remarked pervately, "It's not of much con srquence what he says, but it seems he wants to give all the dramatic effect he can to his lest will end testament,' -by withholding his message till - Thaltisrmoment: ' It is understood he resolutely refuses to allow copies of his message to be iurnithed to the press. If he can stand it, they can, for it will be the last time he will have an op portunity to put on' - dignified airs." ASSESSORSIIIP, SECOND DISTRICT, PENNSYLVANIA. The appointment of Hon. Thomas 13, Florence on Saturday last, ss assessor of internal revenue for the Second DiStrict of Pennsylvania, in place of Clifford S. Phillips, deceased, was quite un expected to the politicians here, who supposed that Florence would be permitted to name the man for the place, but few supposed he would name himself. It was quickly done, for if the place had remained unfilled till to-day, it would have been necessary to have sent in a nomination. to the Senate for its consideration., The ap pointment was made directly by the President, no application from the appointee, nor recommendations, being - placed on file in the Treasury Department,, as is usual in such cases. It, was a free gift of the President to Colonel Florence for the manifold services the latter has rendered him thrOngh, good and evil report, and shows that Johnson is not destitute of gratitude. It is probable the nomination will not be sent to the Senate till near the close of Johnson's adminis tration, in order to allow Assessor Florence the longest term possible which the Prealdent can give him. Notwithstanding Florence;personally ~bears the reputation of being a ,"good, clever fellow," these qualities will not secure his confir mation by a Republican Senate,-and he doubtless realizes the fact that his residence in Philadelphia will only be during the present winter. This ap pointment somewhat disarranges the"slates"fixed up by several aspiring politicians for the place; but, after all, it is thought it-will not meet. With serious objection from the Hon: Chas. o'Neill,as It will relieve him from some embarrassment as to the claims of pressing friends, and will enable him to "sweep the deck" of his district clean, after the fourth of March next, when a general "reorganization" may be expected.

He stooped to inspect the generator, and the contact of the fight with thegas caused its Instantaneous 'gui don and an explosion of the most terrific char- The effects of the explosion were truly appal ling. Portions of the heavy walls were blown outward, and the entire building was shivered and rent from roof to basement Bricks were hurled through, the air with terrific force, and were picked up two houses distant. Floors were upheaved, torn to fragments, and together with a chaotic mass of timbers, bricks and articles of garniture,- -.down- into the burning abyss. The windows, even in the chambers, were blown ant, and the broken sash, shutters, fragments of furniture and pieces of wood torn from the in side of the building were scattered over the yard as far as the street. A mine of gunpowder could not more effectually have wrought the work of de •traction. With the upheaval of the floors sheets of fire swept through the building. In less than half an hour the elegant edifice was wholly enveloped :n the flames. By eight o'clock the work was completed.. Only portions of the walla remained standing; within everything had been devoured by the flames. The inmates of the house at the time of the disaster were Mr. Hubby, his wife and mother. his son Frank W. Hubby and wife, Miss Ella Hobby and three domestics. Mr. L. IL Hubby, who was in the basement, was. terribly burned about the face, neck and hands. In the library were the younger Mr. Hubby and his wife, and Miss Ella Hubby. The former was reclining upon a sofa, and the- two ladies sitting near. Mr. Hubby states--that the shock came with such appalling suddenness that he has not theleast...reentiPetion of hearing the re port of the explosion. He was badly hurt *Miss - Ella -Hubby-was so shockingly .burned that it is feared she cannot survive. Immedi ately after the rescue of Mrs. Frank W. Hanby, the unfortunate girl, frenzied With terror and pain, leaped from the window, with her clothing all on lire from 'head to foot. Several gentlemen immediately gathered around the agonized victim, and by means of overcoats the flames were speedily smothered. Our citizens are sincere and profuse in their xpressions of sympathy with this deeply afflicted Ibmily. All its members are widely known and universally esteemed. On Saturday night ex ggerated reports were in circulation, to the ffect that several of the family were killed, but this is nothing unusual in such cases. eTh' A Paris correspondent says : " present de dant tone of the French press excites remark .verywhere, but the question is, Do the Opposi tion Journals represent public opinion ? M. Ed mond About, who professes to be a supporter of the Imperial dynasty, states that he has travelled iho whole country through and has found no de votion on the part of the lower classes, and great dissatisfaction amongst the bourgeoisie caused by increased taxation and the faults committed by ministers. The Government's trying to frighten the country into submission with the spectre rouge; it credits the Opposition with the inten tion of throwing up barricades. The accusa tions made by the semi-official organs show the alarm felt by the authorities. These few lines taken from the Tribune represent the feel ings of the Opposition:- "The intimates of the Empire know better .ban any one that we have no intention to resort to violence and force to reoonquer what-violence and fbree al:tate-bed from the people. They know hatep labor not to throw the- country into dis order, but to awaken it; not to oppress opinion, but to render it its sincerity; not to outrage the law, but to impose the respect of the law so long Get aside; not to dispute the decisions of univer sal suffrage, but to render those decisions honest , end independent. There Is nothing in this which threatens disorder and anarchy. And the princi pal complaint made by the Government is that a serious movement has been commenced to re establish order on a durable basis." The Pope and the French Idinseter. A Roman correspondent writes: The Marquis do Bonneville, unlike his prede cessor here, Is in high favor at the Vatican, hav ing been able to - give the Pope the most satisfac tory assurances as to the protection of France. .The other day hi told the Holy Father that the Emperor would continue to occupy (Avila Veg.- chin until be definitely settled the difficulties on the Rhine ; but that France would then be unable to resist the demands of Italy, and, there fore, his Holiness must . either make ter ritorial and administrative concessions at once, or be prepared for a greater surrender at that time. The ambassador assured the Holy Father that the war with Prussia was postponed, yet he is said to urge the Pope to continue his armaments, and these-are certalialy pursued with unabated vigor.

Although there is to bo no creation of cardin als, the consistory of nest month will not pass offso tamely , as was expected. The Popo will do his best to stir np strife by delivering an allocu tion on the state of the Ohnrch and the Spanish revolution. You may conceive how he will speak on the latter theme, when .

A first-class business snit, the whitest - of shirts, elegant wristbands, hair neither too smooth nor too rough—the dress, in all respects, indicating a business man of taste, wealth and prominence. He walks to this man on the right, looks over his shoulder at some work hots doing, nods approvingly; then to his cash-book, makes a few inquiries, says that is right; then asks the cashier of the concern one or two questions, nods approvingly; takes in the entire store at a glance; says very politely to those in charge, "Good day, Gentkmen!" passes out, nods to the acquaintances, shakes nands with that one, and with a kind word to all, passes out to his private carriage, waiting before the door, and, if the weather be pleasant, with one or two friends, is off for a drive thiough Central Park. and up the Bloom ingdale road, behind his elegant horses. Few men in New York drive so line a team as does .11e.LianoLn. From tbre.e o'clock to -six, .with friend or two from different parts Of the country, be is on the road. as are thousandaol other busi ness men of the great city, gathering health. fresh air and strength for the morrow. At six o'clock we find him at his elegant residence on Four teenth street, ready for 'dinner. And there is al ways, at his well-inn:asked table, two or three extra plates and extra chairs, for such friends as he may invite to his house, for ELEL3II3OLD be lieves that it is not good for man to ear alone. And though he has at his home ono of the most beautiful women of the land for a wife, and a family of three little children, he still delights in extending the most generous hospitality to those who are always welcome when invited. Hetranoen lives well. This — ire - know, for often have we dined from his well-filled table ; laughed at his joke, and listened to his exper iences in life. Aaa business man Hirramoen is a success. As a merchant he is a prominence. As a druggist he is equal to cut-glase. As a sharp, shrewd, en terprisang man of the world ho is nothing short of enthusiasm. While as a bold operator and ad 'vertiser he has no equals in the country. He does business on a large scale. Lives like a prince. Pays his advertising bills with a liberal hand and promptly. Pays large salaries to those in his employ, ' and aims appar ently, not so much to accumulate money, as to spend it for the benefit of printers. His expenses for advertising are nearly half a • million dollars per ,year. A. one or a ten thousand dollar brad. tiorne:newspaper is nothing for him, providing the paper is of sufficient import ance for him to use. In the evening you will find him and his wife, and perhaps one or"two friends, occupying a private box or reserved seats at one of the Operas or Theatres; or attome, if the weather is unpleasazt, with albw friends, indulg ingNin a social game of euchre, or something of that kind ; or at the home of some of his friende, the business men of New York. , ' When seven o'clock in the Morning comes, you inquire for EiILIZIBOLD and you will find that he is down town. He must have read some thing about the early bird catching the worm, for certainly we know no earlier bird among the business men of New York than this same little druggist. ^His beautiful psiace of a store is kept open day and night for the accommodation a the public, and early in the morning, before the rest of the family is up, HEvirnom3 has_ walked to his store, looked over the establishment, gained an_ appetite for breakfast and re turned.— Breakfast over, the morning papers looked at, a romp with his family, the carriage;.' is' brought • to the door and down he goes to his place of business, reach= there at ten o'clock, and from that time till three in.the afternoon he, is most industriously en gaged dictating answers to hundreds of letters, Riving orders about his business, forming the aci quaintanco of strangers, chatting with friends who drop in fora moment, and comporting him self with the air of a man with all tho business on band be can possibly attend to. BRIZIROLD IS nervous, quick. restless, aus bittous man, lie understands the art ot adver tising to perfection. Ito believes with us that moneyjudiciously expended in printer's ink hrings a larger_ return than any_ other__ Invest ment. , An idea comes to him one minute and Is acted on thanext. What he, does he does . quickly and thoroughly. While other men would he canvassing,debsting or arguing the propriety of doine this or that, he has accepted or rejected the ',proposition almost before it is made to him. ; He acts at once and with cnergy. A Nitta hint von may drop ,he will seize and magnify to; something.of importance. Some little idea that another man would have no, lath. in, or' think , unworthy a thought; ho will seize, turn to advantage, and make thousands of dollars therefrom. He began life with little or no capittd, but, con fident the remedy he bad discovered for shattered constitutions was the beet in the vrorld, he had the pluck to advertise. His saccesss tell the rest. His sales amount now tcilive million bottles per year, and am rapidly increasing. The late re ,,pnning of his palatial Drug Store, in New York, was one of the grandest, events of the sea son. Thousands of persons attended to partake of the sumptuous repast furnished free upon the occasion, and all were delighted. Among the presente to those Who came were one thousand bottles of Cologne distributed to the ladies. This of itseltahows that Helmbold is a very scents-ible min. " 0 ' To see him on street or 'in the store, you would imagine him the confidential clerk of the proprietor, but when you come to talk business, make plans and suggestions, you will fled that the seeming confidential clerk la the head of the house, and what he does not understand about business and about advertising is hardly worth learning. Sometime, when in New York, if you want to see a man who is making a success of business, and making himself wealthy by using printers Ink, walk by his Drug Store, drop in, ask for H. T. Heminiono, and tell him you came out of riosity to look at - one of the - smallest business men of New York, who is at the same time one of the greatest. If ho shottld look just a little annoyed at the interruption, tell him that we rent you, atn all probability he will ask you to the soda fountain, order a glass of Tonle, bid you call again, and you will go on ,your way re joicing, satisfied that HELMEIOLD,. the Millionaire Druggist of New York, is about as good a fellow as they Make.—Exchange. tiliamAiriu also nureichta. —The drama Wotree at Bay was produced at the Arch last evening in superb style.

Ta be sure, Ore engine only_ slid to the edge and flapped over like a table-leaf, remaining sus pended, but the scene was very satisfactory, and deserves a great deal of praise. Of the play, very little need be said. The man ner in which it is produced gives it' it's chief in terest. The frame is better-than the picture. A work of this description hardly demands exten ded criticism. It is considerably more merito rious than Light at Last or Tangled Threads, and it contains some good situations and one or two amusing passages, particularly in the latter.part of it. The dialogue in the first two acts is un aturaand rata—if :we may me the;wOrd—as if ' the writer had not great facility in using the En glish language. The plot is sensational, and mildiximprobable._ The "nuestion" is popped by three different men. twice to a woman, once to an aged father. There is a sprinkling of political economy, moral philosophy, hygiene, inebriation, donkeyn, Fourth of July enthusiasm, stomach-ache, love, blood, horror, indomitable energy, beetle-browed villany, inexpressible bliss, base ball siting and mineral water champagne. The most susceptible man could not shed a soli tary tear of sympathy over the sufferings of the heroine; the dullest man could not go to sleep during any of the nets.

But it rarely excites enthusiasm now, because the music •is very trying to the leading voices, and it is not often well done. In its re vival last evening at the Academy, Miss States personated "Eivira," Signor BoalWErnani,': Sig nor Otiandini "Den Carlos" and Signor Anto nucci "Silva." Miss States not being first-class, as a singer or an actress, the important role of "Elvira" was imperfectly done. Signor Boett was really good in the difficult music of "Er nani," his voice being high, strong and resonant, while he used it with great spirit. Signor Orlan dini is a fine artist; but his voice is not low 03:tough for part of the music of "Don Carlos,"—a defect which he tried to avoid by altering some of the lower phrases, and thus alerting the intended effect. Besides, he got dreadfully astray in the intonation several times last evening. Signor Antonucci's oSilva" was good, as is everything undertaken by this conscientious artist. The superb - finale of llfe third act received an encore; but the enthusiasm of the audience was confined to this one piece. This evening Afar/ha is to be produced, with the parts admirably distributed among the German artisteatottur, Cellini, Habelmann, end Formes. To-morrow evening Norma is premised, with Mme.

It became apparent at once that Jackson's trick consisted simply in being tied with a rope similar to the one ho had concealed, and then "hen confined in hie "cabinet" cutting the one with which ho was, tied and secreting the pieces, and substituting for it the ono he had con cealed on his body, which he exhibited to his audience as having been untied by spirits.
