Ex-President Tyler.

Congress adjourned on Saturday without transacting any business, and the Virginia delegation immediately held a meeting to make arrangements for paying suitable respect to the memory of Hon. John Tyler, deceased.

The Legislature adopted resolutions in regard to the sad event, and several appropriate eulogies were delivered. The committees appointed by the Senate and House will, it is understood, co-operate with the Virginia Congressional delegation in making arrangements for the obsequies.

The flags on the public buildings were displayed at half-mast, and the Capitol bell tolled during a large portion of the day.
