Washington: (Correspondence of the Herald.) Wasuineton, Dec. 5, 1844. If the first blunder of your assistants is the invanable warrant of discharge, our commission expires from the announcement that the Hon. Dixon H. Lewis was in town. Our authority was directly from a member of the House, of the same State. He has since informed us that we misun- de Mr. Lewis has not arrived, but has ing the action of the Legislature of Ala- inder ¢ the written constitution We are constrained to notice she bell- They yesterday visited the President’ ternoon, per invitation, | one were well received, bells inclusive. Last nigh they Ha their first concert at the Aesembi: “tig ooms, and had a good house. . A flutist,yclept Mr. Underner, filled f 09 the intervals between the ringing of the bells. Several a | eer applauded him so incessantly that he con- ‘dthe compliment into ridicule, and left the stage at last, ina huff. Ao individual then came forward aud announced that there rome be an- othar concert to-morrow evening. But the chapter of the evening not being concluded, the audience demurred. Enter Mr. Consyn—‘* Gentlemens is it your de- sire that Mr, Underner should be heard ?” Cries ot ‘No! “Not? Yes!” * Yes!” “ Fair Play !” ‘No, by G—d, stop the d—d thing.” A perfect storm of yeses drowned all opposition, when Mr. Underner re- ared and pla) area tte the “* Sprig of Shillelah” in tolerable taste. ringers then concluded, per programme. Neither the Clerk of the House, nor any mem- ber thereof, as far as we could observe, vor the re- porter for the Herald Forticipated § in the outbreak with Mr. Underner only so far as tended to the res- toration of order. Other statements in circulation require thus much in a matter which otherwise would be of the smallest possible insignificancy. The Democratic Associations of this oy se giving a dinner on the 8th of January, to Messrs. ‘Walker, of Mississippi, Dawson, of Louisiana, and Payne, of Alabama, for their services here to the cau:e during the interregnum. The several democratic clubs have also isaued a manifesto, as would appear from the }, expressing their um- brage at certain late movements in regard to the Inauguration Ball next March. The manifesto de- clares that they who fought the fight are alone en- titled to the triumph. ‘Wasuineton, Dec. 5. 1844. The Correspondence with Mexico—The Proceedings of Congress—Opinions of Governor Polk—Ap- pointment of Colletor of New York—Mr. Petit of Indiana. i send you a copy of the correspondence of the Secretary of State, on the Mexican question. It will be read with much interest. Nothing of public interest was transacted in either House of Congress to-day. They have both adjourned over to Monday, to consult and advise on various important subjects—to allow a portion of the members to visit their friends and famili othera to prepare themselves for exhibition in the Bouse, and the remainder to lounge about and en- | ioral the fun and frolic that this dull town can ford. “The anti-Texas wing of the democratic pai? may prepare for the cold shoulder of Gov. They cannot command, demand, or coax his in- fluence—thisis {rom a source not 10 be questioned; and no argument of those prints known to be hos tile to this great American question can influence or change this fixed determination. The conse- uence will be, that the attempt of a certain New York cliquefto control Gov. Polk, will force him to seek for advice, judgment, and council from Penn- eylvania leaders, whe are not tinctured with the urdities of a portion of the so called New York democracy. The determined effort of this anti- Texas clique will thus deprive New York of the real honor th to her, as their ‘‘rule o tuin” motto has always been to help themselves or destroy the influence of that portion of their own party who may honestly oppose them. e nomination of Governor Van Ness, the col- lector of yourport, will be sent to the Senate in the early part of next week, and willbe approved, not- withstanding the secret partizan movements that have been brought todeteathim. No Senator can vote against him for want of capacity—none for lack of high- moral and social virtues—and none for want of knewledge of his decided political character. He has the utmost confidence of the merchaats of your city, aad his independent course la_tefusipe.toohes, dictates. afe.tawureus tom house incumbents, will recommend his confir- mation to every Senator. Several of the presses of your city, I perceive, have misrepresented the character of the remarks made by Mr. Petit, of lndiapa, in opposition to paying the Chaplains to Congress the sum _ of $500 each out of the public treasury, for the performance of prayers at the opening of each house. They ol- po thathe “ oppozed religion and ministers”—he poeed the payment of the money, on the ground twat at Congress had no authority to draw such sum from the public treasury ; aud because he believed that the salvation of the souls of members depen- ded more upon their own acts of fe than reliance upon their constitwents, and therefore they should contribute to pay the Chaplains out of their own nd not take the sum from the coffers of ple.

A Presidential dinner, gotten up as a treat to his Excellency the Vice elect, being of such rare oc- currence as to excite the surprise of the knowing ones, and no small share of jealousy between the usage venders, I thought the bare mention of the Il of fare of that sumptuous feast would be a bon bouche to your epicurean readers, and dispel the im- pression which many falsely labor under, that we hold a very tight fist ‘‘at our house at home.” Having acces: at all hours to the lower story, I found little difficulty in establishing myself in the graces of Ben, major-domo, a factotum who, on this occasion, armed with the insignia of his office, poker and ladle, was deep in the s<crets of the luron containing the ¢elicious ingredients palatable to a Presidential gusto.

Itis morally certain now that James K. Polk is the President Elect of the United States, and the consequence of that certainty has raised a com- plete furor among the pet house /iterati, and email beertraders, of the political circles, and a consi- derable tempest of the tea-pot order has already bsen brewing to rather an alarming exte: The bone and sinew of the Democracy are vociferous in the presentation of their claims to an heirship to the responsible offices of Watchmen to Uncle Sam in any of his most menial perquisites, while the ruffled shirts ere equally uprorious in urging their claims to ports where they may consider themselves entitled to the pickings Ah yf nothing of the stealings) of the same venerable ntle- man What will be the result of all this fire and fury, this deponent will not venture to predict; we must keep an eye to their pero, and here: “pe report Ug lansl definitely. “sectie! you have so happil: ly ¢ dendminated them, are gq tively at work, and from the presence of Senator Buchanan, who was here several days previous to the meeting of ae €%, it is understood that cer- tain arrangements have been already concluded, having for their object the premotion of jain wire workers in the recent contest. How pitiable itis that men of character will sometimes stoop so low as to allow themselves to be made tools of in the elevation of men who, in reality, ough: to be regarded only as vampyres on the body politic.— Yet it iseven so, but we must wuit for further de- velopments. A truce, however, to politics. This is the sea- son for the cultivation of pleasure and amusement. We have lectures here in active operation on almost every conceivable subject, from the origin life, down to the desertation of the qualities of the smallest potatoe in the universe. Some of the advice which Hamlet gives to his players would not be much cut of place if credited to the accouats of those who aspire to the high station of public teachers. I have listened to sever- al of these doggrell emanations, and have as often been disgusted with their purile trash, as I have been amazed at the seeming good humor with which aad eine tothe humbug. Some of these people are favoured with overflowing audience while men of merit, such as Dr. Lardner, with his scientific diequisitions on the sublime subject of Astronomy, are allowed to pass on without the test attention. re seeme to be quite a revivalin Bagel toe we have now four theatres open and in active operation—| , are all well filled and doin remarkubly fine business. Your young vorite, Anderson, has been playing here at the Chesinut, with Miss Clitton, with remarkable success. Anderson is, however, a man of consi erable merit, and with some of his representations Ihave been better pleased than with any other 1 nave ever seen. There isa life and buoyancy in cting that completely throws into the shade the dull and critical performances of Forrest and Macready.
