WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. —_>+>__ Tur Struccie Yxsterpay.—Lavghed at by not a few, aswe have been, for the confidence with which we have of late predicted an aj proaching union of all the conservative elements in the House, we point to yesterday's action there to bear out the correctness of our judgment in the premises We have never entertained hopes thatany mem- ber of the People’s party organization of Pennsyl- vania or New Jersey would give a sincere vote against the interestsof Helperism. Their course yesterday, in changing their insincere votes for Mr. Smith, to vote against him, when without thus changing he would have been declared elected by = majority of three, proves the correctness of our judgment of the spirit actuating them. The position occupied by Messrs. Holman, of Indiana, and Allen, of Ohio, pains ns, as we take it for granted, it pains all true Democrats. The result of the remarkable ballot of yesterday shows that the Democracy of the House, with the excep- tion of the two gentlemen we name, as well as the American party and some of the anti-Lecompton ites, are now keenly alive to the importance of preventing the triumph of a Helperite in this contest. It is understood that both Messrs. Allen and Holman stood ready to have voted for Mr. Smith had they known that he would have received the one vote lacking (had they voted for him) to make him the Speaker—without the votes of Mr. E. Joy Morris and his People’s party followers, who having voted for him with insincerity— changed their votes on discovering that their trick to make capital for themselves or their party bid fair to defeat Helperiam beyond redemption. We need hardly say. we apprehend, that the Democratic party here appear pained and mor- titled at the attitude in which those two gentle- men have taken- occasion thus to place them- selves. ’T'would have been far wiser on their put, after having placed themsclves in opposition to their party on that occasion, to have kept to themselves the fact that there was really as little sincerity in their course in the matter as in that of Mr. EK. Joy Morris and his fellow Republicans who having voted for Mr. Smith to throw dust in the eyes of conservatives among their constituents changed their ballots on finding that, else, they had elected him. We rejoice that every other gentleman in the hall in full communion with the Democratic party voted for Mr. Smith; thus demonstrating the good faith of the effort of the party to terminate the state of revolution into which Helperism has already plunged the Gov- ernment. The contest in the next Presidential election is to be between abolitionism and anti- abolitionism. The gradual narrowing down of the contest for the Speakership to a similar issue embraces proof of that fact which all men of common sense appreciate. It will be well for all, in wnd out of Congress, to view matters in that light, we apprehend. Tue Batiot or Yesterpay threw the Melper- ite ranks into an indescribable state of confusion Criminations and recriminations among its parti zans were being bandied about until midnight, which developed the fact, unmistakably, thata very large wing of the party had been long restive under the leng and iron rule of the dozen or twenty of them who bad peremptorily refused to leave Mr. Sherman, even for some other signer of the Helper manifesto equally as bitter. By mid- night it wes well understood among them that Mr. Sherman is to be dropped on Monday like hot potato, probably after a speech of thanks froin Lim. They bad yreat potber last night over the selection of ancther candidate for the Speakership, Messrs Pennington, Corwin aud KE. Joy Morris being in equal favor. From developments coming eut in the course of their caboodling, we were impressed with the belief that at least ten of them will not vote for Mr. Pennington, because he was not a signer of the Helper manifesto, though an earnest co-worker to compass its triumph, since the tirst Monday in December: that twice as many at least will not touch Mr. Corwin with a twenty- feot pole, holding as he does to the propriety of observing the fugitive-slave law; and, also. that Mr. Morris may never hope to poll more votes than were accorded to Mr. Sherman. His tergiv- ersation on the last ballot has in all probability settled his hash with the American party of the ilouse ; while we can see no reason whatever, why. after playing that shameless game, he may hope for the vote of Mr. Clark of New York,Mr. Adrain, Mr. Riggs, or Mr. Reynolds, without all of whom be cannot be elected, it strikes us. Tue Iravian Opera.—Apeina Patti.—The Ullman & Strakosch Company will visit this city abont the middle of February. The Company in- clades much of the best vocal talent in this coun- try: Adstina Patti, Colson, Gazzaniga, (prima donne.) Brignoli, Stigell!, (tenore,) Amodio, Terri. (baritoni,) Susini, Junca, (bassi,) and the Grand Chorus and Orchestra from the Academy of Music, New York. The bright star of this Company is Miss Adelina Patti, who has made the greatest sensation in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, engendered by any prima donna of herage. She ix a soprano sfogato; her voice is pure and of great flexibility; she is endowed with rapidity in execution; her voice ranks in the highest soprano register, and she pours forth the HE. flat (above ,the leger Iines) with the grectost ease Sontag predicted for her, years ago. a pro fessional career more distinguished than that of any other vocalist who has gone before her, and ler career so far bears ont that Prediction to the letter. Next year she goes to Hurope. As yet she is scarce seventeen years of age. - - Rerverican Cavevus —The Republican mem. bers of the House assembled in caucus this norn- ing at half-past twelve o'clock, inthe room of the Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads ‘Their proceedings are conducted with closed doors, and up to the present writing no further intimation of their nature has leaked ont than that they are characterized by considerable en thusiasm. a ee Swanr Lanps 1x Wiscovstx.—The Commis- missioner of the General Land Ojtice has trans- mitted to the Governor of Wisconsin a certisied y district, containing 0.02 acres, aud enuring to that State under the act of Congress, December 28, 1250, BEBE es Swamp Lanns in lowa —A patent (No. 1) for swamp lands accroipy to that State under th graut of 1550, for the district of Conncil Bluffs, containing 4.937 acres, has been transmitted to the Governor of lowa, by the Commissioner of the Land Office. ——'e Tue Senate Committers on CLains —On mo- ion of Mr. Bright, in the Senate yesterday, this committee was ordered to be increased from five to seven members, the two additional members to be appointed by the Vice President. es Tue Weatuer.—The following report of the weather for the morning is made from the Amer. isan Consolidated Telegraph Line to the Smith. sonian Institution.

Every man on thelr side had voted for him, and the demoerats could even now, by changing their votes, make him Speaker of the Honse and defeat the republi« can party. Let the country know that fact All the democrats then. proceeded in order to change their votes to Mr. Smith. of N C . accoms panying the change with brief explanations. It Lee rumored that Mr. Smith had by this means secured a inzjority of one or two votes. Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, (who has not heretofore voted,) cast his vote for Mr. Corwin. Mr. Junkin, ot Pa..stid he voted for Mr. Smith under a misa; hension, supposing that he was an American, but. hearing that he|s simply an old-line whig, and that he declines to answer the nestion as to whether or not he is in favor of a slave code for the Territories, he would change his vote for Mr. Sherman. [Applause 2nd hisses.) Mr. Rust, of Ark.—Did I not speak the truth ekx ago when I said they would with- draw.

[Cries of ‘too late.*"] A voice—How is Pennsylvania iron now? {Langhter ] Considerable excitement and confusion pre- vailed. Mr Morris, of Pa., said, understanding there was a disposition on the part of the republicans to change front, and present as a candidate ene of two gentlemen equally distinguished for their services to the country. and their soundness upon the great Issues of the day, he should for the pres- ent withdraw his vote from Mr th, and give itto Mr. Corwin. [Applause and huisses, and cries of “order ”) Mr. Curtis, of lowa, moved that the galleries be cleared. A member on the democratic side called on the Clerk to preserve order. The Clerk appealed to members, to persons privileged to the floor, and to spectators in the galleries to preserve order, and said if there was anoth@r disturbance the galleries he would di- rect that the offenders be ejected. not of course in- cluding the ladies.
