From " lots's" Washington letter to the Baltimore Sun of Tuesday last, we extract the following: Congress is at hand. We see many signs of the session", and , it cannot fail to be one of mach interest. The session will also ho sufficiently animated, in a social point of view, not.withetanding the pressure of the times,avhich, by the way, is littin felt here, or by thoact who ordinarily contribute to the gayeties and sociabties of this city. . Governor Walker bad arrived at Booneville on his way to this city, ac cording to advices yesterday received. Whatever may be his position upon the subject of the action of the Constitn: tional Convention, it will command . so much respect from all parties to the question as to determine it before Con gress and the public. It is believed that he aipports the course of the con vention, though possibly he may have objections to portions of the constitu tion and schedule. The aceeptanee by Congress of the constitution which may be presented will take this troublesome subject out of that body and out of pol ities. This is a great object, and it ought not to be defeated by any unrea sonable objections on the part of the free State men of Kansas. Whether the constitution suits the wishes of the majority or not, in every particular, is of little importance to them, considering the fact that, they can alter it within a year, and every year thereafter, to their entire content, through after conventions called by their Legislature. They deride, it is said, the provision, of the schedule which authorizes amendments to the constitution after the year 1884, well knowing that if it prohibits amend ments befalls that time it is nugatory. But that is not the legal oonstrnction of the provision—its meaning being that after tho year named it shall re quire two-thirds of the Legislature to call a convention. Until that year, therefore, the Legislature may, by a bare majority, act upon the subjeet. sorGirr. Walker, of Kansas, is now in Washington.

D. - Artie Murder and Suicide.—An ap palling trndedy occurred in the village of Port Jefferaori, 'Long Island, N. Y., on Saturday - morning week. It ap• pears that a man minted Waters, a res ident of Port Jefferson, entered his dwelling, where his wife, her daughter, and het- daughter's husband, Mr. Stnr devant, were partaking of breakfast, armed with a heavy bar of iron. Wat ers attacked the party, killing Lis wife and Mr. Sturdevant, and wounding Mrs. Strirdevant so seriously as to ren der her recovery very doubtful. Hav ing accomplished this horrid deed, Waters proceeded to his barn and bang. ed himself. No reasonable cause can be conjectured for Waters' conduct save that ho waa laboring under a At of insanity. Mrs. Waters was formerly the wife of Mr. Darling, a shipbqilderof repute at Port Jefferson. From a long account of the tragedy in the New York Herald, we take the following: The only person in the house besides the party at breakfast was a little boy about ten years old.—After Waters had inflicted the that blow on the head of one of the parties, terrible shrieking succeeded for a moment or two, during which the boy had concealed himself up stairs,and heard distinctly two or three other blows falling in quick succession. Then the shrieking proceeded only from one voice, and " murder," " murder," *as loudly shouted. Two or three ad ditional blows were again quickly deliv ered, and •then there was no noise, ex cept footsteps apparently leaving the scene of the tragedy and proceedin up stairs.—The boy now concealed him self under a bedstead, while the foot steps, after reaching to the top of the stairs, turned into another room from that in which the boy was concealed. The lad, perhaps suspecting that Mr. Waters wanted to kill or bent him, ran down stairs as fast as lie could, and was rapidly followed by Waters, who had the horrible weapon in his hand with which he had per i ;-trated the frightful series of crimes. The 1.3 d, however, es caped by outrunning his panier, and then spread the alarm, whereupon a number of villagers in the neighborhood of the house proceeded to the spot, where they beheld a terrible sight. The floor and walls were besmeared with blood. Mrs. Sturdevant lay in a state ofinsen sibilitr oo the ground outside of the door. Her head and face were cover ed with blood, and she had received a heavy stroke from an iron bar on the head, which would, of itself; have been sufficient, it is believed, to cause death. Besides this, sho was beaten by the same weapon in other parts of thebody, and had two smaller wounds in the bead. Mrs. Waters and Mr. Sturde vant were found lying in the room en tirely dead. Their heads were horribly mutilated.. The ; murderer was found in th e barn suspended by the neck from a joist, entirely lifeless. It is bald that Mrs. Waters was very much attached to ber daughter and ber husband, and that she possessed a good deal of property since the death of her first husband. She was very liberal with her daughtir, and it is 'supposed that her husband,noticing many ma terial proofs of this liberality-, in the shape of presents, imagined that he was not the chief object, of her cares and affection, and reflecting upon this, or perhaps fearing that she might final ly be fed to settle all herproperty on her son-in-law, ho came to the maniacal conclusion of avenging ,himself in the heart-rending manner in which he bar barously murdered his wife, his friend and himself, and attempted,almost sue cessfaily in one instance, to destroy the lives of two others. • Singular Coiscidesce.-"—Ou Monday last, says the Abingdon Virginian, the Rev.
