BTATESMEN BA.DLY.DitESSED; Andy, Jobuson's dress was of, the old School style of politiFien of some twenty ' years ago, with but one modern concession, and tbat was _that the coat was a frock instead of a swallow. falt. His style of dresi, the conventional one of -.the "American gentleman" ot the years *gone by, consisted of a shiny black broadcloth cost, and "trousers, with a vest of deep black velvet; There are btit few of the Congressmen Of the present day that wear this style of dress but take them as a class, probably , they arc as badly dressed a set of men as one can find any where in the country. Throughout Congress there are many men who tuakeo it a point of dressing_ In the most eccentric possible manner. I l uke Poland, of Vermont, was ono of the most'occentric dress ers in , the. House.' He used to always move about In a blue coat adorned with . small dinner plates or. brass buttons. His Test was general ly white,and opened so as to display a wild e: pause of dainty ruffled shirt bosom, under whose shades gleamed here and there tiny dia mond buttons. This old man never in his lite passed a pier-glass without taking a good' square look at himself: • Two of the hest dressed men in the Congress are Clarkson Potter •a New , York in the House, and in the Senate Gen.Hurnslde. Clirkson Potter ha's rather iverdonii the matter in too cloiely adhering . to.the English Style of drawing. . Hts whiskers, are cut alter the English style ot. pronunciatioh.„, Yet there use but few men in the House who are his equakinlatiility and capacity for work. Gen. HurnitAe, the hest dresser in the Senate, affects the nudreis style, and hi his peculiar 'Cravats, waistcoats, and °signal colors 'never` fails to.attract more than ordinary notice. He was once a tailor is his early days, and never neglects an opportunity ` offered by' an . evening session to pat on a full dress suit : Attired in tbi Society Splendor, Ambrose loves to stand itticiUt the "dahrways of the Senate Chamber andalluiv the public to drink In. the full beau tiefof his nOble proportions. • Among the worst dreased men - • in either Son eta or Congress is Sant Cox, He always wears bobtail sack coat,and a bobtail aank coat nev er falls' to damn a little man.

Fernando Wersi would loos nine-tenths of his dignity were he to put on a sack coat and lounge shoat in lis way assumed by some of his Western brethren. He always, wears a long black coat thet, buttons tightly up to his throat. He look* aa if he, were' melted down ,every night, and run lute his clothes every, morning. He Is al. ways easy In his manners, however, and. has notithe mannerism of Clarkson Potter, the basil dressed man in the House. Mr. Speaker Blaine affects the doublbressa• ed 1 ',frock. He generally wears two buttons buttoned, and allows the rest of the coat to roll so as to show a very nest shirt. Farrel of Chicago wears the double-breastLd frock. gen ersDy in some crown cloth. 'l4e rarely ever buttons It. There are peculiar garments worn by In& vidhal Congressinen that are • so original in style that yon cannot help wondering at the genius of the tailor who devised them, or at the!taste of the wearer.
