 PIcRwIcKIAE PoL1rIes .--The following anu sing conversation took place in the House of Rep. resenialives at Washington on the 2Ist, between Mir SEARoRN JoNEs, of Georg'a, and Mir GENTRY, famuas anii-aar Tennessee whig. IL is rich--de- cldedly. Mir Jones had said of alr Gentry:

 Perhaps some private pique, some personal feel ing eagendered in the fierce conflicts of party in some ui Ihe numerous electi0neerng contests in which lhe President had often been victorious, ranked m tle gei tlrm'n's bosom. Perhaps

 Mir Genlry-I desire To say win the utmost sin. eerity that neser have entertained and do now entertain. the slightest Ill will towards the fresi dent of the United States. There never has been any occurrence which had endence 10 excite such feeling On the contrary, so far as our intercourse has extended, II has been unprInly courteous and polite. IL has been such intercourse as gentlemen holding opposite political opinions could entertain, With regard to political contests, no personal asperity has mingled with them Ny opposition to the President IS directed against himsoely in his public character and moi individual

 Mir Jones was happy to hear saeb disclaimer. But it was certainly moi to be wondered at that the coarseness and yolgarg of lhe genleman's remarks should have suggested the idea that some personal plque existed.

 MT Gentry-l beg ts say that when I seek in- siruclon m elegance of language, 1 will not apply to the gentleman from Georgia

 Mir Jones-i dare Say not The misfortune is. that we are ten lncorrigihe, and will mol seek in- sruclon Yet still hope that '.lhe sober second thought" Of the gentleman will convncs bm that his remarks on that occasion entirely too yul- gar.

 Mir Gentry Not at all.

 MrJones-Thev were quite loo coarse io come from q member of this House. if mol too coarse 10 be applied to the President of the United States Does lhe gentleman approve of the he direct from one gentleman 10 anotlIerl

  man. m st and will correct this. tCries or ''or- der "J

 Mir Geatry-The gentleman IS in error. IL has been supposed, even by some of my own political friends, that did apply that to the Presdeat. did not. IL is true l eonirnverted his uuh and s ncerity in making the declaration that ths was not an aggressive war, and arer arguing that, con. cluded by saving that he had aborod lo make the people believe lie. IL was a scripture quotation and have Il he,e. know whai is due 10 myself

 Mr. lones-l am glad that the gentleman has at lergth taken back the offence

 Mir. Genty--l take back nothing sir.

 MT. Jones Then the gentleman 0us hI 10 get some ifIend 10 tell what he did say. He certainly used language not proper in this House. and certainly ht to be applied the President of the United States VIII pot enter into any further controversy this point. The gentleman probably led away III the heat and hurry of argument.

 Mr. Gentry-The gentleman has entirely misap- prehended me

 MT. Jones-lf so do not st and alone The gem tleman admits that his own friends so understand hun. But desire 10 be done with such subjects and inc Interruptions which accompany 1t. Did he not sav that the President made false assertions with re- gard to the wal

 Mir Gentry-Certainy.

 MT. Jones-Did he not say that the President rad endeayored To make the people believe lie?

 Mr. GenrY-Cerlainly.

 Mr Jones-Prav, then. is not that charging the President with lie7

 MT. Gentry-I abide by what said.

 MT. Jones-I ask, has not tine President always throughout his whole career maintained the highest character for ruth and variety?

 Mir Genlry--I have never attacked the Presidents private character. It is Idle for the gentleman to caIechlse me in snch way

 Mr. Jones-Fave you never cast any impntations upon his character?

 MT. Genrl-Certainly not I drew distinction between the character of the nan and the character ot the President If the gentleman desires to cate. cllse me about the Presidents character think he had better not press met. "A laugh

 Mr. Jones-l have no appreheosions on that score and The nsnuatinn of the gentleman IS not in keep ing with his former candid confession.

 MT Genlry-What nsinuation?

 Mir. Jones-fsu betrayed that yoa had not made quite clean breast of it.

 Mir. Genry-The gentleman does not comprehend me.

 Mir. Jones-l fear the gentleman hardly compIe- hends himself
