The Third House in Washington.
Under the new rules of the Houses of
Representatives of Washington, which
went into operation yesterday the mem
bers of the lobby are, it seems, afforded
every facility they could possibly desire
for the successAii prosecution of their
business. There is not a word to be
sure, about the lobby itself on the
rules, but the provision which meets
their case is found in the clause ex
members of Congress shall be admitted
to all the privileges of the floor and of
the cloak rooms, and that all other per
sons shall be rigorously excluded there
from. It is a notorious fact a large per
centage of the ex-members who go to
Washington every winter do so solely for
the purpose of advancing private or other
interests. Tvventj' years have elapsed
since some of them, who turn up even
more punctullay than regular members
held a seat in the body, They have only
one object in coming, and what that ob
ject is, is well known to every one who has
any knowledge at all of what is going on
at the capital. The presence of the able
honest and intelligent representatives
of many of the leading journals of the
country on the floor, where they could
watch the course of legislation, was in
the past a most effective cheek upon the
operations of this class of people, but
the new rules remove that restraint, so
that they can now conduct their opera
tions with a degree of freedom and com
fort never before enjoyed by them. It is
a queer victory for the economy and ro
from policy.— X. Y. Herald.
The Phildelphia Press thus portrays the
poet Longfellow at home.
He dresses in a suit of black broad
cloth. and is very much of a democrat.
A charming conversationalist, lie has
drawn many dear friends to him. He has
a marvelous faculty of setting one quite
at his ease. Rising early, he takes a com
paratively light breakfast, and if the day
's bright, indulges in a walk for several
hours, varying his route daily. His ram
bles sometimes lead him to that great
city of the dead, Mount Auburn; occa
sionally he visits Cambridgeport, and
once in a great while lie walks to Boston
to see his friends or his publishers.
He calls on hispriutersjcvcry day or two
wheu he has anything to put in type and
receives or returns proofs of his work.
The winters he spends in Cambridge and
the summer in his cottage at Naluint.
His carriage is erect, and there is little
in his manner to suggest his peom "Mor-'
ituri Salutainus." The warmth of his love
is lavished upon his children, who are all
to him. Indeed, few men enjoy the com
pany of those about them daily as does
Mr. Longfellow.
The Boston correspondent of the Sa
lem, Mass,, Gazette writes: "An original
authenticated anecdote of General Wash
ingtoti is a rare thing, but here is one on
the authority of Maj. John Saunders, who
commanded the Salem Cadets in 17b'J,
when Washington visited Salem, In his
compliment to the cadets, 'You have the
honor tv command the best, disciplined
corps I have seen, ' pronounced the word
corps according to the English spelling,
articulating the p and s, and accenting
the o short; not core or kore, but c-o-r-p
--s. This can be no imputation on the
scholarship of Washington, for his in
tercourse vv itn Lafayette, Court O'Esta
ing and other French ofliecrs must have
" familiarized him with the French pro
nouueiation. It rather intimates his in
tense Americanism and contempt of
French affectation."
