from the Washington Standard. AN AFFRAY IN CONGRivSS. ! 4 most unpleasant and lamentable occurrence luok place In the home of Representatives yesterdty, the unrarrtohed fact of which, a near as ho have been able to ascertain thsm, a follows: Mr. White, of Kentucky, add rcs9Cl the Committro of the Whole ujion the subject of the Tariff, and took occasion in his sjkjocIi to repel certain e-ross, false, and malicious charges, revamped up and reissued against Mr. Clay by or under the sanction of members of Congress. After deponing of the chargo of bargain and intrigue, reuttoml by his colleague, Mr. Linn Iioyd, Lo noticed that lately put forth that Mr. Clay had said on sonic occasion in the House of Representatives that if they, the slaveholders, were deprived of their black slaves, they must use white ones. Mr. White referred to the fact that several members of Congress had lately certified that Mr. Clay was n-ported to havo used this la rising.; in the House on the Kith of February, 181!, as the toport of the proceedings of Congress in that paper of tlio 17th would show ; and ho said that it was untrue that Mr. Clay over used, any such language, or that there was any such report in the paper reforred to. Mr. Kennedy, of Indiana, w ho is one of the certifiers of this calumny, said (Mr. White being i still uxn the floor) that he had certified to nothin but w hat he could prove, or that he could prove it, or souio such expression. Mr. Uathbiin, of Nw York, whose .eat is immediately opposite Mr. Whites, said, "Never mind, it can be : prove lad around the House;" to which remark Mr. White said, "It is a lie." Mr. Uathbiin iniinediately rose, turned round, and struck at Mr. Whito, w ho parried, and returned the blow. Groat confusion immediately ensued. Several mem- j liers interfered, and the parties were separated. , While this was going on, a person of the name ;

Win. M. Moore, a constituent of Mr. Garret Davis whohapened to be in the lobby near by attempted to rush in and separate the parties, but was thrust back, and finally out of the door hard bv, by a Mr. MeCauslon, a member. In this scullle Mr. Moore, after he had been thrust out of the dour, fired a pisto! at Mr. MoC, w hich missod hire, but hit an odieer of the House, one of the police, in the thigh and wounded him the ball Iidg:d in the thigh. Then I fray imm"diate!v !r;irm the subject of nation of the House. The Speaker haing taken the Chair, Mr. Saunders, of N. C. olh'-n-il a resolution for the npjMiintme.nl ofa select Committee to investigate the w hole aflair. Mr. White addressed the House in some appropriate remarks, expressing his entirj willingness to submit to any investigation the I loan might think proper to institute. Mr. Uathbiin next sprk, ami expressed his sincere regret at what had transpired. Ho said there was no act of his life he so much lamented, not oiil v n account of the reproach cast ujon Jlou.se and himself, but on account of his constituents. Mr. White then said, that, after what hail fallen from the gentleman from New York, it would Iw; unchristian in him to retain any resentment towards him. He harbored none, hut looked upon him with the sauu: friendly feelings ho had oor entertained towards him. As Mr. White sit down. Mr. Uathbiin turned and gave him his li-nul, rind they s!kvi! hands as friends. This produced a loin I clapping in the galleries, w hich were densely filled, and marks of approbation on the part of the I louse. The resolution first offered, together with some ani'Mid iinuits, one directing the Sergeat-at- A mis of the I louse to hold in custody Mr. Win. M. Moore, who had fired the pisto'l, till the further order of the House, w as adopted, and the House adjourned. It is due to Mr. Moore to say that Mr. Davis stated, in the House, that ho was a very ino'litisive ami worthy man, and ofa highly respeet;ih!e family. He was, moreover, a cripple. His firing the pistol was a hasty, thoughtless, but most Unjustifiable and inexcusable act. Washington Standard, April "23d. The Si h-M.vri.nk Uatteky. An immense concourse of spectators, not less, as we apprehend, t'.i'tu fifteen thousand men, women, and children, witnessed tho experiments on the Ivistorn IJraiich. which were made by Mr. Colt, with his Sub-Marino Katterv, last Saturday evening, about five o'clock. The contiguous hills, wharves, shores, bridges buildings; and trees were fully manned. Two steamers loaded with passengers and a num-Imu-of smalt boats w ere also seen keeping, howI'vnriit a respectable distance, in the Mastern Branch. Two or three minor explosions were exhibited before the seamen on lwiard the "doomship" made their exit, which they ellected amidst the deafening cheers of the multitude, w hose eyes were nil turned towards the "doomed ship. She moved slow ly, in sailing order, along tho Navv Yard channel, anil in a few minutes after !eaing her imxring place blew up with a grand explosion, which raised the Imw of the vessel completely nut of th water, and scattered her fragment in various directions. It would seem that the explosion w as made a little tin) soon, as, had the battery struck the vessel a minute later, .she would have been completely destroyed 'leaving no wreck behind." The t?Mriment, however, we suppose, mav lxi considered as eminently successful in its result, showing, as it did most completely, the tremendous ower of the Sub-Marino I lattery, when applied to blow up ships of an invading enemy in their approach along our rivers and harbors. Nat. Intel. Saturday April 13. From the Cincinnati Chronicle. TUa White Slave Slander Climax of Testi mony. The Kmmcipatrtr has the honor of giving to ths world the firm information that Mr. Rich said that .Mr. Clay t',, that he must have somebody to clean hid boots, and xk lot beefsteaks and if he did'nt have black scrvaots. lie ....is. have whue ones'. Th8 world was not qj.w as rrurti astonished at this information, as it ought to have Ipmi, considering the wonderful nature of the news. The Ooo Stttr$man nest took up the matter and rivalled the Moon hoax in magnitude of its capital letters, ismi trle worl d looked on with indifference. No one thought less ol Mr. Clay than they did before; nnr was there any marvel excited in the great world of politics, morals, philanthropy ad human nature, that a man who had the money t pay them, should desire to eiupUy servants. If die wnrli' was i'vlitferent to n remarkable a fact, it will never do that Statesman, Enquirers, Emancijtators, and all ihal brlliar.t host of truth -loving, science-seeking friends of justici and huntv.nty should desert the cause of science, and leaw sach a marvellous phenomenon, as that Mr. Clay emplojs servants, to go dowa lo posterity unreproved, unwept, mhonored and unoiij.

And the en 1 of the whole firing of their ray su's is, that Mr Clay did not ui the words, but soiiieilimg to "this effect." That is put ithrtt v thought when wa first taw the klander, that Mr. Clay said in substance, only that servanrs were necessary for those who could employ them ! Hear it ye Kkies above, and drop down tears ys clouds! Mourn universal man and break forth into grief, ye daughter of America! For the .Statesman and the Knia ncipator have said, that Sain.
