GABRIEL ADAMS. 1
HEyRY CAMPBELL.
Ecu to rial Coneipoadeaice of the Pittsburgh Gazette.
. . 'Washes tiros, Dec. 31,1517.
Serboaian fog has overshadowed the city today,
which it something unusual in the District. One
might almost fancy “tbe heavens bung in black -1
over the expiring year.* I looked into the Capitol
for a moment this morning. The Senate Chamber
and Hall of the House presented “a beggarly ac
count of empty boxes,” and tbc only smiling faces
were the clerks, messengers, pages and laborers,
drawing their monthly pay. Salaries at the Capi
tol run thus, by way of an. item of news, interest*
ing to those who would know all that is going on
here—Chief Clerk $3,000, Assistants from $1,600
to $1,500, Messengers three dollars and two dollars
and fifty cents a day, and tbc Pages $1,50 per diem,
The Chaplain receives five hundred dollars for the
session, long or short, but $250 is usually voted to
him and the Clerks at the end of the ,session, with
extra compensation for all subordinates.
The Sapreme Court was in seasionto-day, with
a case of great maratime interest pending, and in*
vdying the - right of the jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court in a case brought for the recovery of Specie
■ /lost on board the Lexington steamer, when that I
vessel, was destroyed, by fire. In cases of Admi-1
rahy. as is well known, trial by jury is not allowed,
and the consequence has been a frequent collision
between the Admiralty and Jury Courts. A world
of precedents have been thrown before the Court
fro end con, and legal learning enough produced to
confound even & Bench of Judges. The Admiralty!
Courts, so far from giving satisfaction to persons, i
have been the subject of frequent complaint in
eonaeqeence of the high powers assumed by the
Judges. The Chancery Courts, however, portico
- iarly in England, ore a littlo world beyond Ailmi-1
rally'Courts’in the exercise of extreme authority.
Both, however, have been acquiesccdin and deem
' ed necessary, and it is almost a new thing for the
Supreme Court to have its jurisdiction denied ' in
p. cases of this Sort. ; The precedent either way vnJ;
prove important, and hence the Court at tbejaa*
term ordered a re-argument of the case. E.-B.
HEW YEAR’S DAY AT WASHIJfGTOH.
Washing tox, Jan. 1, I
.The Sun refused to shine to-day. which marred 1
.the festivities of the. season. The crowd, liow- I
ever, were early in motion, anil .the hackneyl
coachmen the happiest and busiest men of the day. j
The President, as usual, advertised, open bouso at I
noon, and for three hours the multitude were upon j
the wing, to and fro. The Capitol was closed, and |
all the public offices,—New Year’s day being aho I
Jyday in the city. There were perhaps more than I
the usual number of strangers in Uie city, and e ven j
mort than the usual nuiuber of visits to bq made I
ty the multiplication ot J persons who kept open
house for the reception of company.
• The Foreign Jlinistens appeared at the Prcsi
- dectV House in their gorgeous orders and decora
lions, at half past'll, and were presented, not ac
' cording U> the rank estimated, where a point of eti
quette is a point of honor, but according to the
term of service at the Court when presented. The
'Russian Minister and lady,—the Union of the Em

FVench Minister,'with his wife, also an American
lady, the' Chilian Minister,, also with an American
• wife, and tbc-Spanish Minister, with a wife more

•- At wfvtq iKn doors cfthe while House
thrown wide open to the 1 populace. The Vic®!
President anJHeads of Department* preceded the j
-- • crowd. The National Band, with their National
air*, infosed a cheerfulness and hmacuhneu of feel-!
ing through the crowd. The officers of the Army I
; «nd Navy were out in full uniform, and the fash
ionable multitude were decorated in all the.plu:
.mage and gew-gava of high life. There were all
aorta of people mingled with them, and in all sorts
. of dresses. Yoong children stood side by side with
•second childishness and mere oblivion," and the
■whole ‘■Seven Aces of Man, from infimey in the
f noise's arms to extreme otti age, were huddled to*
gether. There was a simple introduction to the
President and His lady, in the reception room, and
. the crowd passed on through the once famous
Green Boom loathe always famous East Room, the
■mont spacious and beautiful apartment ol the Ex*
' eentire Mansion. This wpa the round for three
i hours, with but little each one seeing
and being seen; and if possible seeing sigblscnough

of whom called upon her at least Tossing years

her brow. She has the vivacity cf youth, all the
grace of womanhood, and all the,experience of age.
to impart ease, cheerfulness and contentment in
the circle where she moves.
! John Quincy Adams received his friends also,;
and from ten to three his dwelling was much crow*

. almost without an exception, even Charles J. In

asters now* destroying the very • existence of our
unfortunate country, and when in it, the groans
of profound tribulation are incessant, it U penult
ted us, unhappy Mexicans, to enjoy any sensations
consolatory or flattering, it is at I the present mo
ment in which the supreme executive power of
the federation .appears reorganized in conformity
with tho rules and regulations of our fundamental
code. Without this important, event, the most
shameful anarchy was about t 6 complete the hu
miliating work of our destruction, ready so far
advanced by the Government of the
which is converting it to its own exclusive profit.
This result was unavoidable, because tho adminis
tration having been suddenly aliaudoned, ominous
symptoms of utter dissolution presented them
selves in tile most vital parts of the Mexican con
federation. The recent re-union of the notional
representation has l>een, therefore, an important
event in our critical situation, because without

our triunfphant adversaries; become stronger in
themselves, and appear, prirbajW. at a futnre period,
victorious, recovering their tgrnUhcd glory, their
now-sullied name, and their proud title of freemen.
But if on the contrary, a false policy prevails, not
having for its basif the noble' uitonl of repairing
the injuries caused to the nation by immorality and
egotism, annihilating virtuef the fbupdalionof a
literal system —if such an- erttmeou* policy, we
