Broolyn EDk, 1em. John 13. Gordon, of Georgia, is a little larger than S. B. Crittondon. Roscoo Conkling, of New York, is a little smaller than Cloopatra's needle. Generid Goirdon is an export shot, and can make a gold ring out of a gold dollar with a riflo aIl, in nine timcs out of ten. Hre is al.wo an ac comlplislied rid'or and swordsman, and can lift his steed over a stone wall and cut off a clover top with his sabro )ef,)re tho horse reaches the ground on tho other side. Roscoa Conling is an excellent gynaIst and boxer. He can put a two hun dred pound dub-bell, is unsur- I passed on the flying trapeze, and with or without the gloves can tonch any man vio stands bOfore him, at any point from the front of the diaphai'm to the iotlier side of the lft car. Mr. Gordon's best yoars hoe been spen,lt in "coiquer ing a peaco in the field," and there Ftro seven w1oulinds in his b0dy-hu being apparently one of those per sons to whom fato gives as many hints not to go to war as fato knows how. Mr. Conkling has also had a brilliant military experienco in ad drcssing returned volunteers, and in invading General IWoodford's pecu liar province of rallying the poaceful pnblic on behalf of "The Soldiers' Homo." His "torso" has led in the torllnamlelt of jaw like the claymore .f Gordon or tho white pluimo of Henry of Navarre, in the ensan~ ,uined plain and up the hostile hill. With such a background of belligor-, micy, these two porSons, made into iclators on account of the foats of valor they have performed, came into livo lingual collison yesterday. It was in that seanco of billings . gntc and oflico-grabbing which is called an executive sossion. Thoro was pending what is called a calon clar--boing the nominations report ed from committees in the order of their report. . The Senato Comniit. tee on Commerco, soic days ago, had favorably reported on one Smith to be collector of Mobile. The pAIsant Spencer, whIo represents Adabama in about as real a son.o as Reddy the Blacksmith conld ever have represented the E piscopal bench of Bishops, had obtained this report on Smith, and yielding to the carpot-bamggcr's~ characteristic when encountering the prloper'ty of othiers, had put it in his pocket. Of right it ought to have been at the head of the calendar. In fact, it was not there at aill, and unless it was got there out of Spencer's poecket, it would Lose its p)lace and "go over" till after January 15, to which time the Sonato was about to adjourn. Gordon, therofore, drew atten tion to the fact that among the portable property of ot- ,r people which Spencer had abont himl was that commit tee's favorall r'epor t an Smith. Several Senators had their personal nominees p)ending, too, but they were all duily "calen :lared." So some of them with one iccord said ; "Go on with the cal rjndar," the same ais less puIblic and inore gentlemanly peop)le, in more oshpectable meetings, say: "Ques tion, question," etc Among those who spoke the loudest, and of sourse, the most imperiously, for the Tr~ibune is a recent authority to the effect that he does everything in i royal, masterful, Rutledge--like I nanner, was Mr. Conkling, the cof ree mill qualities of whose voice had i very grating effect upon the seven wvounds and the one Smith of Gor-. Ion, of Georgia. Seeing that Wil.. iam Anxiety Wheeler was huaston ng to do just what Mr. Conkling's bones directed be done--that is is mning an order to proceed wvith the 3alenda r-Gordon reomarked, it is saidl, that ho hoped the Sonate could do ts own.. business without heeding the orders of the Senator from NTow York to the Ohaire. William A.nxiety Wheeler said nothing. Sinco he unexpectedly found hirm so.f in Thomnas A. Hendrix's proper ty bie has got used to little refleotions of that kind. Ent Conkling satd that if tho Senator from Goorgia said that the Senator from New York was giving order to tho Chair, then the Senator from Goorgia said what was untrue. At this point thoro was what was called "a scono." Blaino happen ing to havo one more Mulligan lot ter in his coat--tail pockot, looked round for a soft spot on the carpot, whero ho could fall, if he thought prudent to havo sunstroke. Pat terson bothought himsolf of run nmg over tho Long Bridgo, but ro flectod that ho might enconntor a South Carlina requisition the mo mont his Pennsylvania person and his Natick boots carried his Wash ington storo clothes and his Now York nook tio to Virginia soil, Other Sonators wero ponotrated by quito as livoly omotions. Gordon added in a bapso pr'tufdo : "We ean sottle this elsowhero." Conk !hig rejoined in a tenoge robusto : "Wo can settlo the matter horo and now." "Hore and now" are always impressivo. From Conkling they iii.e blood.-urdling. There was evidently a vital differonco of opin ionl betweel the Sonators on an adverb of timlo and placo, and such grammiatical issues will always sx cito the honorable body. But the two bolligoronts said no more. Gordon knew that his ri(lo was in the cloak room, his bowioknifo had been sent out to be ground, his revolvers woro in his other panta loons' pockets, lie had loaned his sword to the proprietor of Willard's Hotel to slico boiled hain with, and his mountain howitzer, which he ordinarily carrios on his hip, was in. uso as a cuspador at Wallace's dosk. HLe was, thereforo, unarmed, and his Iivo feet four and his one hundred anC twenty,six pounds wore in favor of some other timo and "elsewhere." Conkling realizod that Gordon's extronoty was his opportunity. Ho nicely calculated the distance from tho floor to the coiling, and he estimatod that lie could sling ILhe Georgian through the roof in a scoond, at tho rate which would land tho remaindor of him that did not. adhero to the painted glass, at the Relay House, in about a minute %nd a half. Feeling therefore all his Oneida potency and all his Biowery Boy activity stirring in him, lus six foot two and his two hundred ind twenty pounds wore in favor of 'horo and now." Mr. Thurman, however, poured i1 on the troubled waters, and Mr. [-amlin poured waters on the Iroubled oil. It was very much ocgrotted that any such scone had )ccurred, and overy Senator solemn ly engaged to say nothing about it. >utside, on account of which pledge the whole country is enabled to .now all about it to-day. It will be )bservcd that Mr. Gordon's desire. to settlo something with a big man Alsowhore was not reciprocated by N[r. Conkling. It will be observed that;Mr. Conkling's desira to turn tme Chamber into a ring, to settle iomnething here and now, with a little man, was not reciprocated y M~r. Gordon. lint the best part >f' the whole business is the oppor tunity tIhe incid3nt gives to news Piapors without any manners of thcir own, to talk about the "plan Lation" hind, and that is not unlike.. y to he followed by other journals, n the other side of a hypothetical ine, rating the careful timed and ~onditional defiance of Mr. Conk ing, as charaeteristic of a class who re always willing to light when and vhore they can't, and never when mud where they can. There is no Ioubt that Gordon's swift insinua ion that William Anxiety Wheeler vas receiving orders from Conkling ~vas an unparliamentary-and unjus ifiablo as it was not improbably rue. There is no dou bt that. Jonkling's heroic and hypothetical.. mr'ling of the hatchet of defiance at ior'don was in the finest and safost style of the Sonator. The 'elsewhere" and the "here and now" vhich were the afterthoughts of the it the bantam and the al titud inous. hanghai, we have already shown ~he reasons for. It is pretty certain, however, that. heo imp)rovemnent- ofnocoasion fel~ ows can fine little to improve in this iffair. Gordon's injudicious arrow, >f which the point was felt by Wheeler and the whizz heard by Jonkling, was not even charao eoristic of himself, let alone of his section and colleagues. Ho and boey have endured actual carpet baggery so long that mere. words. rrom the less disreputable pQrtions >f Republicanism do not hurt much, --especially when InvestigdtIng: ommittees are Ahowing -Northern iien what Sonthern men have learnM at conideRepublicnent, to be.
