The introduction was in this wise : “Mrs. Evans, permit tue to presentyou to Mr. Evans.” “Mrs. Evans !” said the spirited bachelor, “the ver y lady I have been in search of for the last eight years. ’ The fair widow took the remark in very good part, and a pleasant acquaintance ensued.— What the future may hi mg forth, this deponent sayeth not.—CAnr. Courier. Washington Gossipi. —The Washington Star in an article upon the electron of Beverly Tuck er, of the Sentinel, Printer to the Senate, says the Sentinel will now out Herald the Herald in its oppposition to the Administration—that the JferaM may cease its opposition, out me Sen tinfl never, it says, further, that the disaffec ted Democrats, Abolitionists and Whigs of the Senate have combined against the Adminis tration. Fourteen Whigs, three Abolitionists, (among them Seward) and nine Democrats voted for Mr. Tucker. The reasons of the Democrats voting for Mr. Tucker are said by tho Star to be these: Messrs. Weller and Atchison, because of the favors shown to tho Van Buren party ; Mr. Bright, because he was not appointed Secretary of the Interior, and also because bis candidate for Special Mail Agent was rejected; Mr. Brod head, from opposition to Col. Forney, and his inferred influence in the Union establishment; Messrs James and Wright, from want of sympa thy with the Administration, in consequence of itsanti-prstectionist views ; Mr Evans, merely from ths solicitation of hi* Virginia friends; Messrs. Hunter and Mason, are the one the cou sin, the latter the townsman of Mr. Tucker. The vote for Gen. Armstrong, of the Union, is understood to be as follows :—Messrs. Gwinn, Johnson, Petit, Dodge of lowa, Slidell, Hamlin, Walker, Dodge of Wisconsin, Cass, Stuart, Adams, Norris, Williams, Douglass, Allen, Shields and Bell. Tribute to the memory of Gen. Hayne. — Among the beautiful and touching addresses, de livered in the U. S. Senate, on the Bth inst. was one from the Hon. John M. Clayton, of Dela ware, in which was the following allusion to our gifted and lamented Hayne : “While Mr. King remained in the Senate, there tvas still one member of the body who had ser ved with me on this floor, during the session of 1829 and ’3O. It is melancholy to reflect that nearly all (he rest of the Senators of that peri od have closed their career on earth, and that , no one of those who survived remain here with me to day—the master spirits of the time were ‘ among the Senators of that day. I speak not | of the living—but hero there were Clay, Cal- ‘ houn, Forsyth, and Livingston ; the learned and * laborious Woodbury; the astute Grur.dy ; the < witty, sarcastic, and ever ready Holmes ; the - classic. Robbins; and among many others, justly diitinguishcd, ‘he graceful and accomplished or- ’ a!or of Carolina, Robert Y Hayne, whose words hail such a melting Jlote, and spoke of truth so stetelly well, they dropped like the serened snow, and all was brightness where they fell. Oh, I eould enumerate and delight to dwell ou the vir tues of them all, and then revert to him whose fame we now commemorate, as to one not infe rior in integrity and honor to the proudest among them ; but these reminiscences are attended by the mournful reflection that our connection with them in this world is ended forever.
