Life in Washington. M. J. W. the former correspondent of tlic Charleston Courier, furnishes totho Nashville Union a spirited nccount of a recent Ball at the Postmaster General'*, in which she thus sketches some of the prominent gueetsofthc occasion : "And first wc n6k your attention to n very striking face near us. There is an expression of sweetness and benignity, united with strong intellectual intimations, which at once fix the attention of any observer. The large. mild, dnrk blue eyw, under the masses of luxuriant dnrk liai?, which fall in wavy clusters over Hi# oar<>! might belong to an artie-t?and the "wllite neck-cloth, tied and knotted with a simple precision, might indicate the divine. This gentleman (Lord Napier) has great simplicity of dfDOrtmenL without llm l?n?k' tonnli '?>?' riri-n. gance ; quiet in maimer, a little reservod,' lie strives neithfrt" to seek uor Avoid observation; <and hq&jjfcitfi'iiisgeiitle and aceomplishcSrwife ' * x>on *'.wipe ci" tin- rcuard* of our citizen*, yfftffVwffns never been accorded to uny of his ./1lii^jjj^'e'aecessors. The expressive face and liijlif. llfitijflKnoustitche. iicfir I.??rd Napier, Mr. . ^Ambassador fr????? l'cuiioirlc, who if he liked, .eortld wear order?, but, being modest, wears none. The lino imposing looking figure (Huron Sloe lie,') grouped with the last described, is "Chartjc dr Affair^*" from tint huge domain which moves do*vii the inup of lite world us a glacier moves down the Alps startling the jealous rivals that watch its course, and granting pence to the allies that shiver iu its shadow. These gentlemen add to their influence in our community, the weight of a liisrh moral estimation. jiciv, n><>, ?c so- hmi, naint'v. who i< invited, not because lie is a General, hut because ho is f? hero; mid l.nily Oiisely, with a face like Cleopatra, and a tinea like n constellation. Aud here, too, we see the steely hearted, bachelor member," IVoin North Carolinn. who is proof alike against the open attack.-* of brilliant lashing belles, and the more formidable attempts of she insidnoua and meek older of sirens ; and twei t, Julia May, who iniirht sing with her eye#, they are so large and Instrions. And here, too, is the "Texan Haiiircr," (Major ileCullouL'li) who would be uumistakenly a gentleman in a Hanger's shooting jacket, au>l who Jolt hero ns if lu- Wei's dressed in a coronet and robes. Ami here, too, wo bee Miss .Lane's violet eyes. and Miss \Vlf niece of the Secretary of (Im; Interior. in ail exquisite rose colored crape dress, lier face radiant vvitli j->v and happiness. "But lure eonies a liuly with a legal look, more remarkable in lier than beauty. (?old and rubies would well become lier princely port and stately head, crowned with a braid of pro fiihe black hair. This is a daughter of Dull" Green, and sifter of Mr*. Calhoun* And here. too, is thy now member from Charleston, South Carolina. There is little in his appearance remarkable, but h> manners have nil lliut. poli>h aiul courtly ease uhsrh characterize the citi zetis of that Stale. This gentleman is Smith Carolinian, U? his tinker tips. In <laiigr-rous icinity we see a soft, sh.iily pair of blue eyes ?a sweet smile an-l a very pretty mouth, ami a glow of pink ami a delicately t.iir skin.

Crittenden, in a superb blue "moire antique" and point laee t liniminirs ; and l>v lierside, the lady of the iiussian Minister, with a soft, curve ol'rieb, red lip.?, and teeth ot faultless delicacy and beauty. And last and least on our list, our dear, darling little friend. Miss Saunders, (.Junior.) who has so much kind consideration for every body, except licisclf, ?t whom she never thinks n moment. Of what a woman is not that child the tnak njr '. A heart pentivelv affectionate, and a U*mper that is sweetness itself. Kvcn here, in worldly Washington, the angel in the bosom sometimes looks out through human eyes ; although the earth lias sadly changed since the hukb-rof the old patriarch's dream was let down from heaven." Washington News. The following items of Washington news, we extract from the correspondence of the Charleston Courit r: The House has parsed. 1?y a very large vote, a Joint Ucsohition for the termination of the session on the first- Monday in June. It may he doubted whether the House is in earnest. They have hardly taken tip the regular business of ' the session n<* yet, having been chiefly occupied by the Kansas dispute, or topics connectfid with it. If they will act promptly on the Kansas bill when it shall ootne from the Senate next Tuesday, they may be ready to adjourn on the day proposed, Sereraf new propositions in regard to the admission r>(Kansas have been offered in each House; one by Mr. Gilmer, of North Carolina, provides for the admission of Kansas, without regard to any constitution which she may pre ler, so it tie republican m form. Yesterday, Mr. Montgomery, a Democratic member from Pennsylvania, introduced a l>ill on leave, which was referred, on liismolion, to the select committe of fifteen on IvAiisas alTairs, 'which provides for the admission of Kansas, and refers the Lccompton Constitution buck to a convention'cf delegates ami finally t?? Unpeople. It wns evident that this hill found fa vor with the majority of the House. Mr, I.'ugh explained, yesterday, that his a' 'intendment Wns not. intended to mean anything. . was merely olFcred to stop the clamor, against. . ' tlie clause in the schedule. No such "amendr ment wns necessary, and the power lliat made the Constitution could after, reform or abolish P-f it nt pleasure. Mr. 1'itirh snoki? in favor of ili? * admission of Kansas under the Lecoiupton Constitution, but stated that he should, in obedirncc to instruction from th e Legislature of Ohio, vole against it. The battle of amendment? will l?e foutrht in the House. If the Kansas admission bill, as yroposcd hy Mr. Green, of Ma., cannot be pass cd urtlic I louse, no amended bill can be. The ebnnoes for the passage of any bill, by " the House, are becoming wry bad. There are ^ no cIiaii^cs in favor of the Administration on 'this Bubjfct It is officially known that Col.

Mr. Seward is remarkable for . persistence, vigilnuee, patience and for usijig other people's lalior. Mr. Douglas is self reliant, courageous, firm and Mr. Douglas finds his enemies in those who do not agree with him ; | Mr. Seward finds his friends only in those who vote with him.
